>"What I was talking about was the idea that all the mythologies of the world are kinda like this Hubble Telescope Image. They are like galaxies spread out through a complete universe, and the world is the universe. They are sort of the origin stories of various cultures throughout the world, starting from the beginning of time and stretching all the way out, so at any given time all the mythologies existed together - and currently - and they are simply separated by geography. This is important because some people had the conception that Kratos at the end of God of War III destroyed the world. Well, he destroyed what they believed the world was in Greece, their version of the world. Everybody believed their world was the only world; in fact, we still believe that today." The highlighted bits clearly establish the idea that the world is shaped by each different mythological belief system" - Cory Barlog GDC>"all of them. they have all carved out their piece of history. When talking about the "universe" though, they are - in my mind - referring to the universe's that they themselves have dominion over. The greater "actual" universe has yet to be explored..."- Cory BarlogBasically, each country is its own universe floating in the greater universe and each are governed by their own pantheon.
