I think Americans just tend to like settings based on times of conflict and violence, as stereotypical as it sounds. World War II is an obvious popular one, as is the golden age of piracy, the old west, things like that.
The Art Style and Graphics Discussion

I don't XD stuff like that doesnt interest me, unless it's more modern day things like GTA and Saints Row, I'm pro Japanese developed games all day everyday. Code Vein which is really shaping up to be a great game is something for example I would play, I like all types of artstyles but I like the game's take on their look, not realistic but not too anime either. I also like Japan's more fantasy style settings in comparison to most westerns, they make original plots that don't necessarily take from previously done events and it appears more fresh to me that way

Tbh its by and large a dead genre nowadays.the cowboy craze ended a couple decades ago.
Its not that anyone dislikes cowboys its just that their heyday passed.
As for why people like it, similar reasons why people like post apocalyptic stuff. Gotta be tough to survive lawless areas so we wind up with romanticized american ideals of "manly badass". Its the same appeal of pirates and barbarians.

The great concept art of the upcoming God of War:
This game will be a feast for the eyes.
I'm still having such mixed feelings about this game, It looks pretty but the gameplay isn't interesting me personally and them saying something like it's going to be the most brutal yet makes me just imagine that Kratos is going to be just as big of an asshole in this game as he was in the past games.
That is worrying me as well. I don't think Kratos is going to be a one-dimensional asshole like in the older games. He basically can't, being a dad now and making friends and allies in a foreign land and mythology to even be able to move forward (as was stated by the developers), but there will be just as, if not even more, gruesome imagery of enemies getting split in half or getting their eyes gouged out etc. That kind of stuff. You as a MK and slasher horror fan shouldn't even mind, lol, but I find ultra violence sickening, literally. It makes me sick.

Wow that must suck If it has that affect on you and yeah lol movies and MK have made me more used to it but there's something about the way Kratos does it and when he does stuff to innocent people that's so bad, Not to mention that that really adds to him just being a massive asshole etc. And just really unlikable. Maybe he'll be better in this new one because he has a son now but I'm not sure.

As I already mentioned, the developers themselves said this was their intention for this basically reboot of the series and Kratos.
It is now a vital part of the upcoming game. He is a full-time single parent in this one.

First direct feed sceenshots of Doom for Switch:
The game will run with 30fps at half the framerate than the PS4/Xbone/PC versions, it will have a max resolution of 720p, but will drop below that in stress situations and it will have significantly downgraded graphical settings.
For a portable console this is still pretty impressive...
@Jadeinchains, will you be getting it?

...Personally no since I'm not a fan of the Doom series so I'll be passing on this. Did you get doom for anything? @Tyaren
Nope, not my kind of game at all. XD
I am aware though that the game looked and perfomed great on PS4, Xbone and PC and many call it the best looking shooter on the market.
Interesting to see the Switch getting a port alongside Wolfenstein. I would have never guessed that.

Lol I thought so since It is very gory and violent so I didn't imagine you'd be interested in it. I'm not interested in it either or Wolfenstein tbh so I'll be passing on them both.

Why did you ask me then?
Lmao! XD Cause you brought it up so I thought maybe there was a tiny chance that you'd taken a chance with it or something. But when you said no then I knew that it would have been because of the gore.

I don't appreciate your little mind games...
