God of War's Kratos actor Christopher Judge wants to see game writers get more respect

Christopher Judge, the voice of Kratos across the recent God of War entries, used a FanExpo appearance to advocate for greater recognition of the writers and developers behind video games. Rather than lobbying for continued involvement in the franchise himself - acknowledging his age as a limiting factor - Judge emphasized that game writers deserve the same professional respect afforded to their counterparts in film and television. His comments highlight a persistent gap in how the gaming industry credits its creative talent, particularly those working in narrative and development roles who often operate outside the public spotlight compared to actors and publishers.
