Everything GREAT About God of War! 

Wooah this is interesting

Just another way of showing kratos can defie fate

I did NOT know this

Wow really? That adds some fucking layers to Modi shitting himself

Remember Kratos killed the Sisters of Fate so anything can happen now

Do you remember the guys username who made this?

“You heard of Greek Gods” “No” “You’re welcome”

God loves you, please turn to God and not sin!!

that's great

I love that Faye is directly referred to as laufey in ragnarok. Great comment 👍

thank you for this, fucking awesome

didn't know this, thank u, makes it more awesome really

Whoa, Never noticed that. Brilliant that they did that! 🤯

*Faye

oh my god i misunderstood this at first

Faye

Yep, then killing Baldur proves his point even further and sets them down a path of destruction

@Prabh Sandhu Every death in gow 3 has consequenxes , hades death frees every soul , poseidons death makes the tide crazy , helios death , heras death makes plants die or something like that and hermes death did something i dont remember

@@Eldani-xr1rf Hermès death lead to a plague in Greece

@@Eldani-xr1rf you forgot the most important one, the one that made that entire realm chaotic beyond measure. The death of Zeus turned all elements volatile

@@MikeL-eo9lp why? He was the god of speed, why did he bring about a plague?

@@larrypoppins6273 I don’t know he just did

This is a great interpretation and honestly makes a lot of sense

And probably he knew that this is the first sign of Ragnarok.

I think it was a mix of both

@@ghostlyexe yeah it’s clearly meant as a double meaning. A man who can’t feel anything finally feels snow as he dies , while remembering that it’s the beginning of the end

Poor Baldur... Only wanted to Build a Snowman!

Kratos doesn't have any physical fear, only fear of his past and all that stuff

⁰

Kind of wish they did something with it in Ragnaroks Helheim, what we did get is still awesome but it would’ve been really neat if we had Cloud Zeus make a comeback

Bully atreus the best antagonist in the game

@@manindya6326 Yep, as a 21 year old that kid scared me.

Whatever

Yup. He would make me so mad one second then have me lmao the next. I’m not mad about the choice the devs made😂

Whatever

Ye, a lot of Atreus' anger comes from frustration that he has to follow Kratos' rules. So when he finds out that he is one of the beings in legends that seemingly have no rules? Of course the kid is going to have a power trip.

@Becker Elaywan ehh, from experience. Drinking a glass of wine at age 14 doesn't make you drunk. But again, this is a game and games tend to like making their characters drunk as soon as they touch a bottle.

@@DissedRedEngie I know this is anecdote but a single (full) glass of wine could easily put alot of non drinkers into a fairly inebriated state, especially a child.

Um, no, shift is because even though Kratos tries, he doesn't convey his message well, saying "we are not men, we're gods and have far greater responsibility" is basically asking for Atreus to develop "Screw everyone else, we're better." Mentality.

Nah, the thing with raising children is it’s always better to be honest, that’s how you mold them from a young age, the shift was due to Kratos withholding the information for too long. If he would’ve raised his son as a god he would’ve had a much easier time teaching him how to be responsible and use his powers wisely, and Atreus good nature would’ve helped that along as well, but by waiting too long and dumping it on him all at once, it caused a huge shift in Atreus whole worldview in one moment, something like that can change you for the worse

What a trooper

Absolute chad

What they are is true, The Cameraman never dies. I mean the amount of Near Death/Should Death scenarios those two (three if we include Mimir) have been in...

It's a lot like Superman, in a way. If you want to really dig into the character, give them a problem that can't be solved by punching.

Also the scene where Freya tells him to use the back od his hand

my god i almost did it! 😂

@@GamingWins oh hell no😳, you'd be editing for the rest of the year.

BOI

So infinite?

*_Boi_* counter

I find soooo crazy that we didnt even see them yet and we kinda love them, looking forward for them to actually show up in the next ones

That’s one of the things that makes these games so good. It’s the air of mystery of what’s to come that keeps us hooked. I can very easily look past all their weak points (the biggest one being how repetitive and boring some of the bosses are) and just wait for a cinematic scene that lasts over 5 minutes easily that adds a ton to the story. There’s not a single hour of gameplay that doesn’t have some sort of plot development and for a game that was continued years on from the original story line it did a fantastic job (my game of 2018 easily, 10/10) now when GoW:Ragnarok comes out they’ll definitely fix the problems and make the high points even higher

Well

@@Spoopy_man we got Tyr and he looks creepier than I thought, and now seeing that it is a duology… I dont think we’ll even get a glimpse of what Faye was like, I think they’ll keep her as this ever-elusive figure that is to be represented by each one’s mind

Well, be ready to take one of them out of the list

I did as well

Wierd that nobody noticed

it's also his son

The latin translation for the English word "speak" is "loqui" so having atreus be innately well versed in language is beautifully poetic

@@jimmajam96 an interesting connection, but it does lead one to wonder if the Norse language is rooted from Latin.

I noticed that, but I always thought it was a lighting glitch in his eyes. Didn’t think of that.

You get a win for even thinking that deep

Ding

would give you a steam award for that you thinker

Absolutely. Also wondered what Mimir thought when Kratos speaks to himself about Athena in Greek. Perhaps he knows Greek himself

That makes a lot of sense. You get the legendary 10 wins!

Well realistically, a creature that size would be a bit slower, because since they are so big they deal with more wind resistance. Which is why in pop culture when we see giant things on screen, it almost looks like they are moving in slow motion. Watch Pacific Rim 1 for an example.

@@bignick2k215 understandable, but even then, a creature as big as Jormungandr would most likely be pretty fast in comparison to it's size. And all of that is due to much of it's size coming from length as opposed to height, as it's long enough to wrap around the entire planet in Norse Mythology.

Remember the serpant is the child of Loki

not to mention that Jormungandr is a snake so he is naturally able to move/strike insanely fast

Just a detail I noticed: when BOI calls Jormungandr at the end of the game his eyes glow because he is using his godly powers. And this explains why he is suddenly able to speak jotnar as he just found out that he is a god and is still trying to know his powers.

And then later being caught in the net after turning into a fish

A year later. But also one of the possible roots for loki is the Word for "to snare". So it's also a hint on that way.

I dont think it is only greek , in my country it can be common

*drank it.

@@Eldani-xr1rf it’s literally in every culture

@@mookiestewart3776 thats because they conquered indirectly half of the planet.

@@guardianofsummerset451 Bruh bullshit

Just wait until Atreus gives birth to Odin's horse

Yeah... Like turning into a female horse for... Reasons...

@@heinrichzemo4061 but as the story Mimir that talks of Thamur's son building Asgard's walls with a Magic horse, which is the origin of Sleipnir, Odin's horse, in the original story Loki stopped him from finishing the walls in time by transforming himself into a female horse to distract the giant's horse from his work but instead seducing him, and by consequence giving birth, don't ask how, to Sleipnir; but as God of War Loki wasn't there then everything where Loki took papers was changed, except Loki "using" an arrow with mistletoe instead of an arrow MADE of mistletoe to kill Baldur and there's a probability that Sleipnir doesn't exist in this world but as in Final Fantasy when Odin is summoned it does always with Sleipnir so it's most likely that no, for example, the Giant instead of asking audience with Freya, wanted to marry her in order to eliminate Loki from the equation until Ragnarok where he is, in essence, the main agent Or the giant who stole Thor's hammer instead of the actual Freya and Thor it was Thor disguised AS Freya and Loki also dressed as a woman who went to retrieve it Other main change was Loki as the true responsible for Mjolnir and Gungnir, Odin's spear, creation as a product of a competition hecaused between the two best Dawrf smithies, Sindri and Brok I think they were.

@@srlopez875 I am aware

@@srlopez875 It would be cool if they implemented time travel to explain how Loki was always part of the story, but was born in the future. I still want to be able to have Tyr survive and come with Kratos and Loki to explore the other realms say Shinto, Taoist, Hindu, or any other Pantheon.

Isn’t the word jotün?

@@GamingWins dont think you understand that what fey saw, was far into the future. many games and shows have different interpretations on what prophesies and seeing the future would seem like. fey saw it all, and wanted it for it is the end of the aesir. a part of me wonders on her love for kratos, but she knew she would meet him and have a child with him.

I lost my mind when that happened

@@jasethomas5198 what a beautiful twist! I think everyone went crazy.

@@kp1x if it makes you feel better no one owns the rights to any mythological characters so anyone can make movies or shows on them.

My friend spoiled that for me. I even pre-ordered the console and asked for week off of work. And he just spoiled it...

I mean, it's interesting I suppose. But the God of War interpretation of the norse gods is their own, so what Loki is in this universe could be whatever. I guess, not as shocking or surprising as it should have been, for me.

That was his name on the wall in Jotunheim

Just ask Zeus

Almost like it was planned or sth

@@its_Criminal1 Oh, wait

Faye,Laufey,Lefay(Brit name i know) ...i be fond with this name afterwards.

or being sorry means that you recognize the mistake and won’t make it again? ☺️

GamingWins no, being sorry is just feeling guilty about something being better is the more productive thing, to improve but it is better to have both

@@storageroom1472 saying sorry about nudging someone is one thing as an example as it means you did not mean to do it or ment anything by it. but saying sorry like Atreus did was more of a "sorry about that, please dont hurt me or yell at me" as he is a child and we all know how terrifying it is for us when a parent yells at you after you did something wrong. you feel trapped.

But being both is a sign of regret and willingness to improve.

subtle hint of the reveal that he's Loki?

@Kash Messiah | I'm not that creepy bro, you should respect your girlfriends privacy.

Time stamp for the privacy part and the gesture?

@@FrenchyFry43 Especially on how it was implemented in Ragnarok itself.

Something my father would have said

Judge said that he teared up because he thought of his own family and how much time he has to miss with them in order to do his job. He felt like a monster to his own kids, so a scene like that would definitely open up the waterworks.

He does feel shame about it though, I’m assuming you didn’t ever finish watching what happened. He calls himself a coward and cries because he couldn’t kill Freya.

@@Krosstic I know but what I mean is that a normal person would feel shame about how he treated his mother but he still thinks he’s in the right.

@@C_Cooke He feels shame about not killing her, not like you stated

@@noncanalepricnipale The regret is *not killing her* . Just because he doesn't feel the emotion we think he should be feeling doesn't mean Helheim isn't doing its job. He's being punished, just not the way you think of.

@@C_Cooke wtf was that time stamp?

Unrelated but i think we will go fishing with atreus to teach him patience, like how we went hunting with him in the first game.

@@vishnutheetharappan7074 And then show his wit by crafting a net

When Atreus went all evil maybe that was Loki

Among other things

Good point

Idk bro id rather live for ever then be abe to feel

@@sadsuperman9996 He already would've aged really slowly like any god (basically live forever), this was mostly to fear of him being killed and starting Ragnarok.

@@francargeric1 no it wasnt lmfao he was spelled because freya didnt want him to get hurt any god can be hurt and lose a arm or somthing but coz of freyas spell he couldnt feel so he woulnt have to bare that and not onky that gods can be killed and i think ur forgetting that so while he could live long he would die at some point so to prevent that fraya put the spell on him so he mnever dies

Something that a lot of people miss in this game is that Baldur isn't entirely a callback to Greek arc Kratos. He's only half. Yes, Baldur is blinded by vengeance, but he lacks the selfishness that Kratos had. Freya has KRatos' selfishness. She even admits that her measures taken to protect Baldur were hurting him, and explicitly refuses to undo them because those protections were for HER benefit, not his. Freya is every bit as selfish as Kratos used to be, and his recognition and rejection of this selfishness is just as important as his rejection of Baldur's vengeance.

Damn. And now Modi’s “how did you…” isn’t just referring to killing a god, but killing a god that was prophesied to live: Defying fate itself

or maybe that moment meant to him that kratos IS ragnarok and it clicks for him that he’s gonna turn Scandinavia into Greece real quick

@@suitedpanda3108 maybe because he defeated the sisters of fate ??? Also kratos isn't meant to be in the Nordic pantheon So, he could very well change the fate

@@fuuuuuuuuuckyouprerna Ye fate doesn't exist anymore so all the Prophecies aren't set in stone. Even the one carved into stone at the end of the Game.

Correction, Magni and Modi are the supposed to be the only 2 Gods that survive Ragnorok

@@blacklegbeastro5295 yeah the phalanx was an ancient greek tactic, i cant remember if it was the spartans who first began to implement it though

@@bewater2974 it's a hollow apology. She still acts as if she's right and only apologizes to hopefully get her sun back, not because she felt bad. I've been on the receiving end of these many times and given more than I can count

@George Argy that’s why it’s complicated! But you’re not wrong. I wonder if they’ll bring her back in a future game, showing that she grew up to be a badass or something.

It is stunning , and not only that but the experience drastically changes when played for second time , like baldur ans his knowledge about kratos , or yhe mistletoe on atreus arrows that was so utterly important for the end of the story line it is amazing , else the fact that mimir tells how odin syole freyas fighting spirit and a lot more man i like this game

Cry over that?

@@Eldani-xr1rf also Freya saying “Making up for a lifetime of mistakes.” Baldur was invulnerable for a lifetime.

@@Eldani-xr1rf I do have a question tho. How does Freya knows Kratos's name? In the entire game no one mentions it. Except for Hel Zeus

@jesucriko Kratos is probably famous over the world , mimir knows him , he literally destroyed a pantheon , and freya has a lot of free time

Fr bruh

I agree. It must have been devastating for him. It was not as simple thing as forgiving and moving on.

Freya was so fucking selfish damn

That's why the final scene was so sad, while you could say it's him detecting the coming of Ragnarok, I think it's just him feeling snow for the first time in his life and that's the reason he's still smiling

Around 100 years not thousands

Fun little Easter egg, once the head and the world snake talk for the first time, head mentions that the snake recognized atreus even though they never met This is becuse atreus (Loki) is the father to the world snake

@@sarcasticfanstic yeah and that Jormangandir traveled back in time due to his fight with Thor

Joker: "Very poor choice of words."

Late reply but yes, that is it exactly the point Baldur was making (that he can't physically feel anything, not just pain). It looks like GamingWins didn't pick up on that though.

@@phanindravaibhav3319 Yup

To be SLIGHTLY fair....... she was selfish enough to do what she did to him so she doesn’t care (read: feel) for his opinions or sense of agency so........ she too was numb....... in a way.

He's also credited w/ the invention of the fishnet in the Poetic & Prose Eddas.

Fuck, you're saying his body tattoos literally just say "Hi I'm Loki?!"..... Fuck Every little thing just gets me excited for Ragnarok

I was about to comment the same thing lol

The fishnet was also what the gods used to capture loki to imprisoned

What you mentioned about Kratos maybe being told to close his heart, while I do suppose that is true, either that or he learned not to grieve about the idea of people passing and Kratos is telling his son to do that.

And because he was taught that on Sparta he realized In Ragnarok that it wasn't In Atreus' Nature to do that.
