Basically.... well, Asura's Wrath involves Hinduism, God of War involves Greek Mythology(ancient religion), Devil May Cry involves heaven and hell(Christianity).... as such, why not take other religions or mythologies as a base to make more bad ass heroes like Asura?
Speaking of, I love what was done in regards to story for it in regards to this detail: in Hinduism, Asura was depicted as the traitor and villain, but in Asura's Wrath, it was the 'victors' that spread this lie to begin, when the 'villain' was actually the hero that was betrayed. If this concept was used, it could be very useful for game designers. Example, imagine if that was the case with Loki from Norse mythology, either with Loki as the hero or as a mentor of a hero that opposed one or more of the Norse deities.....
Either way, lots of potential. And Asura's Wrath was epic in how it handled that angle.^^
