It’s funny how you basically got the characterization of hades in the books. He was pissed af in the books, plus he was tryna find out who helped Kratos out of the underworld.
@@GhostRavenFIN Well yea but like Zeus has the right to get in the guts of some bitches. I don’t think Ares was justified to turn a man’s family into ash.
@Steven Armstrong no, Chain of Olympus is before God of War 1. The Second PSP game (the one where you find Deimos and kill Thanatos, is between GoW 1 and GoW 2).
Funny thing is that the Greek Underworld holds a hell(Tartarus), middle ground for normal people who didn't accomplish what Achilles and Heracles did (the Asphodel Meadows), and heaven for heroes only (Elysium).
@@novacollapse you're right, Fields of Punishment is the mortal version of Tartarus but it's not a part of it. My bad, mixed up some locations but my point is still that every afterlife for a mortal is in the Underworld.
@@WolfedOut including a punishment specifically designed for whoever decided to piss off multiple gods like the one guy who is in a pit with water and an apple tree branch that when he gets thirsty the water will defend as he tries to scoop it and if he reaches for the apple the branch will rise out of his reach. That is both mentally and physically exhausting especially since you'll feel hungry and thirsty for eternity while the things that can cure it are just out of reach.
@@anjaneyasreetrout2444 Its Not Actually Kratos was Cursed With Blade of Chaos will follow him till his death and He used magic to bind other weapons with his soul but not in a cursed way
I just want to give you an idea of how strong Kratos is. We see in the Hades bossfight that the soul pull can be resisted through sheer strength. Atlas, who through size alone we know is unfthamobly strong, could not resist Hades' soul pull with his raw strength, but Kratos could. Granted, Atlas was weakened but STILL. Kratos could physically resist something that someone who is a million times his size couldn't.
This is why I was skeptical when the new GOW games prophesied that Kratos would die. This man LITERALLY climbed out of hell like 3 times. Dude is immortal.
Well.... the afterlife is different in the norse realm. He could tear his way out of the physical realm of death, but death is more ethereal in the norse realm....
To Hades’ credit, he couldn’t have predicted his brother, grandmother and niece helping Kratos along the way. Not to diminish what Kratos is capable of either since, while they had shown him where to go or what to do and given him certain abilities or equipment to assist him, it was still Kratos who still had to kill everything thrown his way, bypass every obstacle and escape the Underworld to keep his rampage going. If Kratos was the fire that burned Olympus, each them were just fanning his flames.
2:21 Fun fact, in the novelization of God of War II, it was Hermes who informed Zeus and the other gods that Kratos was searching for the Sisters of Fate.
He can die just not permanently apparently,although it MIGHT be permanent during the events of Ragnarok as foretold in the prophecy of his death, anything's possible because he isn't exactly immortal either(he can die)
The older I get the funnier Kratos dying gets. He's like the definition of "too angry to die". He's all like "I'm not done yet, I'm just gonna climb back up" "lol, you can't. Nobody's ever done that, it's impossible." "Hold my black soup" "Wait, you're not supposed to do that" "deal with it, lol" And it's not just the fact that he does it once but THREE times xD I can't even describe how amusing it is just thinking of all these Underworld minions and Hades himself all like "okay, you're dead now. You gotta stay here." and the dude's all like "nope" and simply climbs back up like he owned the place, making it look *easy*.
The black soup comment is the best part 😂 (For anyone who's confused Spartans commonly ate this soup called "mela zamos." It was made from boiled pork meat and blood, mixed with vinegar and salt. There's one account of this traveler, who was essentially the ancient Greek equivalent of a RU-vid food critic, Describing this dish as "the nastiest thing I've ever tasted. I'm pretty sure the reason Spartans don't fear death is because when they die they'll no longer have to eat this nasty soup.") Edit: Melas zomos was eaten by the spartans because of how practical it was to carry with them on military campaigns. The entire culture was like this: if it was too glamorous and didn't help with military training it was shunned.
This is why I always laugh when people say "Oh X character can beat Kratos" Yeah, they may be able to KILL him the first time, but then he's just going to literally fight his way out of the liferlife, and then go on an epic quest to avenge himself while causing death and destruction along the way.
God of war 2. Kratos lost his fighting spirit and then gaia said that when he dies, hades would make him suffer for all eternity. After escaping death twice, that's convincing enough.
(Kratos escapes the Underworld) *Hades:* There, you did it! *Kratos:* Wtf? Who said that?! *Hades:* You killed my wife, my niece, my brother, ME, with my own freaking weapons, took my soul, used it to swim the stupid river that should've killed you earlier and through MY freaking corpse... and now you used it again to escape my Underworld FOR THE THIRD TIME. Fourth, if we're counting Chains of Olympus. *Kratos:* ...Hades? *Hades:* Is there any other way you could possibly disrespect me, Spartan? Statues of me you'd like to piss on, fake rumors about me you'd like to spread to anyone who survives this game, use my soul as a puppet to smash petty minions?! *Kratos:* Nah, I'll settle for killing the rest of your family... or our family. I like that soul idea though, why don't I do that anyway? I can already summon the souls of normal enemies, it feels stupid to not use the soul of a god to do the same... (Gaia shows up) *Hades:* Ah good, it's this bitch... *Kratos:* Tell me about it. *Hades:* Wait, what? *Gaia:* Kratos, you must help me! (Kratos starts cutting up every vein in her wrist) *Hades:* Holy sh*t, I don't know what the f*ck is going on between you two but that's metal af! I LOVE IT! *Gaia:* Kratos, do I mean nothing to you?! *Kratos:* You were a means to an end, Gaia. Nothing more. *Hades:* Yeah, you tell her! *Gaia:* But I must face Zeus! The titans must take down Olympus... *Hades:* Tell her to go back to Tartarus with that bullsh*t, will ya? *Kratos:* NO! This is MY war, not yours. *Hades:* Ooooooh, I recognize a burn when I see one! Or hear one. That was even better! (Kratos cuts off Gaia's hand and she falls) *Hades:* Yeah, you go back to your place, bitch! And the best part: I don't have to keep an eye on you down there anymore! *Kratos:* I hate this family so much... Now you'll keep pestering me until the end of the game, won't you? *Hades:* Only if someone writes a comment asking for more ;)
@@livinglegend9709 MEETING HELIOS *Hades:* Your head is such a mess, you know that? And I'm saying this as the ruler of the Underworld. I've had to deal with damned souls that were way less chaotic than this place... *Kratos:* Shouldn't you know better than to keep insulting me by now? *Hades:* Oh, boo-hoo! What are you gonna do about it? Kill me? Desecrate my kingdom? Kill my wife and the rest of my family? Bitch please, you're already doing all of those things! I lived in chaos and pain my entire life... *Kratos:* Pit. *Hades:* Yeah, at the bottom of the pit all along, literally! I- *Kratos:* No, there's a pit ahead of us. I need a way to cross it. *Hades:* Didn't you have wings or something? Just fly across it like that harpy over there ffs. *Kratos:* They don't work like that. I mean, they do kinda work like that, but only with a strong current of hot air. Otherwise I can only use them to glide. *Hades:* Sounds like your flying skills are the only current of hot air in here... Kratos grapples the harpy and proceeds to force it to fly him across the pit by stabbing it, before tearing it apart and landing on the other side. *Hades:* Oh sh*t, okay... that is one way to do it. I kinda enjoyed that, ngl. Perses (the lava titan) shows up, and Helios starts shooting fireballs at him. *Kratos:* This could be a problem. They made all the harpies fly away. *Hades:* You see a flying god and a titan trying to kill each other in the middle of a crowded city, and it's the harpies you're worried about? *Kratos:* They're the only ones who I can use to get somewhere around here. I'll probably need to take the sun god out of the equation. *Hades:* You're killing Helios? Seriously? I never liked the guy, but isn't there a simpler way to- *Kratos:* A god who can fly and shoot fireballs at me while I'm climbing a mountain? He's a liability. He needs to go. Kratos shoots the harpoon at Helios' chariot, giving Perses the opportunity to grab it, crush it and throw it away. Perses keeps climbing. *Hades:* That looked like it hurt. I'm no chariot expert, but I think Helios' flying days are over. Maybe leave him alone now? *Kratos:* And waste the opportunity to squeeze important information out of him? If he flies around Olympus he must see things no one else sees, like a secret path to the Flame... *Hades:* Squeeze? You're talking about torture, aren't you? Damn. The harpies come back and Kratos proceeds to use them to cross the next chasm. *Hades:* You know, Kratos, maybe we aren't so different after all. You are effective and brutal whenever you need to get anywhere. I could've used a torturer like you in the Underworld. *Kratos:* You'd think that after going there and doing everything in my power to escape it four times, you would've taken a hint about how much I like to be in the Underworld by now. *Hades:* I mean, sure, no decent person would ever like it, but who are you trying to fool here? Your mind and your very soul are tainted with chaos and violence. You're crushing skulls and ripping minions apart with your bare hands as we speak! *Kratos:* I am... flattered? *Hades:* You should be! This life of rage and suffering isn't for everyone, and no one knows it better than me. *Kratos:* If you won't shut up, then what is your deal with Helios? You said you dislike him. *Hades:* Mister bright side? Flying and flashing his shiny ass all over the world while pretending to be better than me? *Kratos:* I guess it figures that the god of the Underworld is annoyed by the sun god. *Hades:* Yeah, just because Olympus hated your guts while you were living there it doesn't mean you're the only black sheep in the family, okay? Heck, I could've asked you to be a torturer in the Underworld instead of having to stay up there dealing with those pains in the ass... if I wasn't busy hating your guts as well for killing my wife. Trust me, you'd have way less trouble fitting in. They reach Helios. *Helios:* Kratos, I have not forgotten the debt I owe you... *Hades:* Ah, here he comes with the chicken sh*t behavior of trying to buy his way out of trouble. *Helios:* Says the one who hid his ass in the Underworld and got murdered by his own weapons! *Kratos and Hades:* What?! *Helios:* Yeah, I can see you in there, Hades! I can see everything, remember? You really thought you could just keep trash talking behind my back like you always did in the Underworld? *Helios:* Good! I might have a few things to tell your useless ass! *Kratos:* What does he mean with "seeing everything"? *Helios:* I, the god of the sun, travel the world and- *Hades:* This motherf*cker has magic eyes, that's it. He can see in the dark, see through illusions, be a pain in the ass gossiper who won't let you keep a single secret to yourself... *Helios:* You're just mad for all the times you tried to sneak into Olympus with your invisibility helmet and I caught your ass! *Kratos:* Enough! The path to the Flame of Olympus, NOW! *Helios:* The Flame? You will never defeat Zeus, Spartan... *Hades:* Aw sh*t, he's gonna flash you... *Kratos:* He's gonna what?! Helios tries to blind Kratos with light from his eyes. *Hades:* AAAAH, BRIGHT! I told you he could see in the dark! Hate this sh*t so much! *Kratos:* How do I stop it?! *Hades:* Let me take over! *Kratos:* What?! Hades takes control of Kratos' body and proceeds to stomp the sh*t out of Helios' face. *Hades:* This! Is! For every! Stupid rumor! You ever! Made up! About me! And my wife! Motherf*cker! *Helios:* Made up?! Persephone hated you, Hades! *Hades:* YOU KEEP MY WIFE'S NAME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH! *Helios:* She literally tried to send all of existance to hell because she couldn't stand your ugly ass and the Underworld! You know it to be true! *Hades:* You're salty because she captured your bitch ass to do so, and you couldn't do sh*t to stop her by yourself! She even put up way more of a fight than you! *Kratos, regaining control:* ENOUGH! The Flame, right now! Or death! *Helios:* My death will not lead you to Zeus... *Hades:* Bitch, we all know it will. Kratos rips Helios' head off with his bare hands, and the whole world goes dark without the sun. *Hades:* Ah, much better! *Kratos:* There. Now your soul has a non-chaotic head to stay in. Piss off. *Hades:* Are you kidding me? I'm starting to feel right at home in here!
@@edwardarroyo834 Already working on it! It will be much longer than the others though, and I'm considering turning them into actual videos, but I'll be away from my PS4 for a few days and won't be able to record footage for it anyway. Either way, it's coming up XD
Let’s not forget the time Kratos escaped after Charon the boat man dropped his ass off a WATERFALL OF BLOOD AND HE STILL CLIMBED BACK OUT TO BEAT HIS ASS!
Actually by the time GoW III happened, I think Kratos died and walked outta Hades five times (Ascension, Ghost of Sparta, I, Chains of Olympus, and II). Maybe he's why Zagreus has such a hard time gettin' out.
"Who did you send?!" "We sent the hands of YOU, sir!" "Why would you send them?! They are the weakest link!" "We sent, like, a hundred, sir!" "Nah. You're not hearing me! THEY ARE THE WEAKEST LINK!" 😂
Felt like the GoW games could've had Hades as the secret mastermind behind it all. Having the reason Kratos escape from Hell multiple times be the reason that Hades wanted him to escape in order to kill the remaining Titans and Zeus. Hades wouldn't want to kill the rest of the pantheon, but it was a sacrifice he was willing to take in order to save Greece from Zeus going evil. In the end, he lets Kratos kill him in a specific way so the Underworld can still take the souls and Greece can live freely but Kratos would have to leave unless he wants to stay immortal
@@malwrld you really are thinking that kratos is going to kill them. He learned his lessons and he won’t harm them only if the try to do anything to Atreus. Kratos is going to disarm all of them north gods
Hey man I just want you to let you know I came across you’re videos and Ive laughed so hard all these skits are comedy gold for me so keep working hard man you got the potential to really pop off man you’re funny as hell
Kratos is one of the most dangerous humans that's literally too angry to die. Just like Asura, and Spawn. The Sisters Of Fate would've been absolutely slaughtered by any one of these three. Doomslayer too, let's not forget that even he is human.
