I'm still making up my mind about this game. However, for someone with a classical background like me, Atlas's early history is an issue; the Trojan War began well over 3000 years ago (not the 2000 or so Atlas has lived) when Paris took Helen away from Greece to Troy. Helen had been married to Menelaus, the king of Sparta: the Trojan War was a war on behalf of Sparta. If there's any truth to Homer's story, which there must be because Atlas thinks Odysseus could be his brother, (also, in reality there is evidence of a Trojan War), it's not reasonable that Odysseus of Sparta was the same person as Odysseus king of Ithaca. Sparta is too important in that story to get that mixed up.
More importantly, but more esoterically, Sparta in the bronze age was not a particularly militaristic culture. It was only after the enslavement of the Helots, several hundred years after the Trojan War, that Sparta went from a typical Greek culture to one obsessed with militaristic prowess: the slaves did the agricultural jobs for the Spartans, allowing them the time to train constantly as a professional army, and also posed a constant threat of revolt which served to motivate the Spartans to focus on military prowess. I know that most people don't know that, but Atlas should.
I know that literally nobody else cares, which is why I made a new account for this comment/stupid rant. Sorry!
