I was a little annoyed with the reason to start with the Norse saga, but I've come around to thinking that it was the right choice. Kratos in the OG trilogy is just a huge piece of shit whose only redeeming factor is that he's fighting even bigger pieces of shit. That's fine for a video game, but it'd be tough for a general audience to root for him as a protagonist while still understanding that he is, in fact, a piece of shit.

Starting with the Norse with flashbacks (I'm imagining something like Arrow) is probably a good call.

It also helps fill the gaps. I think neither the Greek or Norse sagas have enough content to be a straight adaptation, but jumping back and forth like that can help avoid the need to just make up shit.
