One fan claimed how Kratos looks in-game is very important. However, the best-looking armor might not have the best stats, and vice-versa. So, it can be a tricky choice for the players whether they want to go for appearance or stats.
Now, the Transmog System steps in to solve this problem. It is a feature that many latest games use where players can copy the appearance of an item onto another one. So, players can use this feature to make the best stat armor look like the one with the best appearance.

Video games like Destiny and Assassin’s Creed already use this feature in their recent games. The upcoming PlayStation-exclusive game will also feature this system. As the game’s combat design lead Mihir Sheth revealed in the latest Q&A, the game does have a “way to do it.”
What do fans think about this Transmog System leak?
It is a feature that fans have been seeking for a long-time. So, they are undoubtedly happy to hear the leak about God of War Ragnarok featuring the Transmog System. The fans would no longer have had to go through the dilemma of choosing between the best-looking versus the best stat gear. Let’s look at fans’ reactions to this new system.
I love that feature in games. So many times I got armor that has amazing stats but looks like garbage.

Fuck. Yes.
I like to wear the “stock” armour/outfits as to stick closest to the original design of the character.
I use the Kindgom Key throughout my first play through of any new Kindom Hearts games for that reason

Smart. A lot of RPGs should implement this more imo. Unless what they wanna achieve with the weapons/armor is lore accuracy, then they wouldn't have to
