Well, it is good, but it would be even better if Kratos' long lost son discovered his dead body, and that would be the new protagonist. He sees all the visions for some reason and he wants to not make the same mistakes as Kratos. But of course something tragic would need to happen to someone to make it more interesting. And you can go on from there

The idea behind the story is that people don't know how to contorl this new found power. Like when the blades of chaos are first attached to the new protagonist, a long section of the game about how the blades are so demonic and require blood to "feed" the blades like they require you to kill. The portagonist has to learn how to cope iwth this or get them off of his body.
Then you (the player) realize that the gods are no different from what the greek gods were like. When they use the chain-blade warrior to win their battles for them and put him up to challenges to see if they can abuse his power without getting their hands dirty.
This sets up the whole "I need to kill all of the gods" feeling that we had in 3. Because you realize that these gods are "evil" and are just using people to do their own bidding. Manipulating people and power to have the world in the palm of their hands.
I think it'd be a good idea to kind of stray away from the original series, but keep certain elements so it feels like you're playing a new IP...but it's also GoW.
I feel GoW would be much more appreciated with a stronger and more emotional/diverse story than it has now where Kratos runs around being mad at everyone all the time....though essentially the character would be doing the same in GoW IV. It would allow for a much more aggressive expansion on characters personalities within the god of war universe.

I cannot accept a God of War without Kratos. Plus i'm not a fan of delving into other sets of Gods. I just made a post of my idea and honestly yours seems so much more real and thought out but again God of War needs Kratos. But seriously good job!
Meh, I didn't put too much thought into it 
just thought of it one night laying in bed and I was like "I gotta type this tomorrow"
But I got the idea from David Jaffe, he had an idea much like this and it'd be cool to be able to use that to extend the god of war franchise.
I like Kratos too but they have to give that guy a rest. They've stretched out his story so much and honestly Ascension seems to be way, way too much. I feel making a god of war 4 with more Kratos killing **bleep** would be too much.
Then again, it'd make it a bit easier for the story, say same thing that I mentioned except Kratos is washed up onto the shore years later or someone finds his body and Kratos tries to go after the new gods and kill Athena as well...but has to figure out what the **bleep** she is...
