Turned him into a character with more depth than "me angry man me kill gods for revenge, fuck everyone else"?

The problem with that is there’s no progression. Kratos from 3 till movie of war is a completely different character. It’s so obvious they had a different character in mind then morphed him into kratos so people will get drawn in, much less risk that way.

Sorry but I like my kratos when he was actually the same character. I don’t support using original characters just to tell some father son story

It's been (probably) hundreds of years since the end of GoW 3 before GoW (2018). At the end of GoW 3 he even realizes that his actions fucked everything up, and tries to kill himself. I think it's fairly believable that in hundreds of years of wandering and reflecting, and getting older, that he grew as a person beyond just being angry and wanting revenge (although that is still there and he fights against it every day). Not to mention it's heavily implied that meeting Faye had a lot to do with it.

Sure, they changed his character. Personally I think they changed it for the better.
