Athena contacts Kratos to send him on a mission to rescue Helios who has gone missing plunging the world into darkness. Chains of Olympus takes place before God of War while he's still in service to the gods, but not yet a god himself.

Now if we include the PSP games it gets even worse. After he finally makes if back and is about to finish off Zeus with the Blade, Athena, one of the few gods he actually likes, steps in taking the blow instead sacrificing herself so that he can escape. With an assist from the titan Gaia, he confronts the Sisters of Fate who promptly attempt to erase him from existence. He then gives Kratos the Blade of Olympus tricking him into giving up the rest of his power to the sword so that he can destroy it, which Zeus in turn uses to literally stab him in the back sending him to the Underworld. Who could have predicted that? Zeus, using this as an excuse, steals some of Kratos' god powers to animate the Colossus of Rhodes sending it to kill him. Imagine that, an angry Spartan general forced into the position of God of War waging campaigns against his former enemies. Years later, God of War 2 sees Kratos leading Sparta on a rampage across Greece which is pissing off the other gods.

Oh and we also find out that when his dying mother tried to tell him who his father was Zeus turned her into a monster that attacked him, forcing him to kill her with his own hands. So what do the gods do after he completes the task they've given him? Do they take away the nightmares as they led him to believe? Nope, they "forgive" his sins and when he tries to end the torment himself they "promote" him against his wishes to be the new God of War. Of course Ares decides to further torture him psychologically by tricking him into believing he has a second chance at saving his wife and daughter by killing hundreds of copies of himself. Having served them for years Athena comes to him with an offer to kill Ares for them in exchange for favor from the gods.

After being set-up, the ashes of his dead family are eternally bound to his skin and the gods curse him with nightmares of what he's done. In God of War, after pledging himself to Ares and the gods, Ares purposefully placed Kratos' wife and daughter in a village that he then ordered him to destroy thus maneuvering him to murder his family by accident. By the time you get to 3 Kratos is definitely a villain, but he's the villain the gods created and they're finally getting their comeuppance for the all the fucked up shit they did to him. I have to agree with others though, if you just read a summary of 1 and 2 before jumping into 3 you're not going to have a very good understanding of the character. Were the sex mini-games a bit much? Probably, but I found them silly and they pretty much became a recurring joke for the series.

I mean God of War is based off Greek mythology and art which is full of sex and violence, so I'd say they were staying pretty true to the source material. It's horrible, it's repulsive, and it absolutely fits the character. The only thing he wants is to kill every god in Olympus, and if the whole world dies with them, so be it. So why would any life matter to him? His killing of innocent and harmless people is meaningless to him. I think it's extremely important to remember that Kratos is a man that knows his quest for revenge will cause the end of the world. The times when Kratos shoves a caged prisoner into a furnace, crushes a reluctant woman under a gear, or kills an innocent citizen just for getting in his way, though, are seen as much more horrible for because they're, in a way, closer to the player, and so each of these kills feels more visceral and personal. People dying directly because of Kratos's actions, though not directly by his hand, happens a lot in this game, but that kind of distant genocide doesn't resonate with players. It's important to remind that, when Poseidon is murdered, the ocean levels rise and thousands upon thousands of Greek citizens drown without any chance of survival.
