One rather simple mod has managed to give the scripted moments inGod of War’sstory an entirely different feel. The mod, which is shown in a YouTube video, allows player to increase the field of view within the game, allowing players to see more of the surrounding area, as the camera distances itself from Kratos' shoulder. In the video, the modder showcases how a simple change to field of view can give the game an entirely different feel. The famousfight with Baldurbecomes different, and though some commenters believed the cinematic feel of the fight was left out, there were others praising the mod for allowing players to more easily see behind Kratos' back.

Commenters on the video praised the ability to see greater detail in their surroundings without having to look around and risk getting attacked from behind. Though the Baldur fight was given a different feel by this mod, many were asking for other situations inGod of Warto be displayed, such as a fight with multiple enemies. Modding the field of view is but one of many changes modders are bringing toGod of War’sPC port, and the game’s creators are even encouraging modders.God of WardirectorCory Balrog stated that he supports moddingthe game on PC.
