    Let’s also be crystal clear. Brok HAD to be the one to sniff out Odin. Brok is a character who is steeped in his fundamental honesty. It’s why Kratos and him have such a good repor. “He speaks plain.” Is what Kratos says when he talks about bringing brok. He speaks plain is the most succinct phrase that describes all of brok and describes just one facet at the same time. Odin is his polar opposite, Odin is a lying, manipulative, arrogant, self important and selfish individual. Brok is a very giving, honest, and plain man. If anyone was going to be the one to discover Odin, it had to be Brok and Brok alone. In the 2018 game when Brok found out Atreus was sick his first instinct was to offer Kratos help because despite his crass attitude he is a caring and giving man. He was the one who convinced sindri to give Draupnirs ring. The most honest thing Odin ever did was kill Brok, because Odin had it all. He had won. He was gonna take that mask, walk into that closet and disappear right into Asgard. He tried to put up excuse after excuse that fell flat in the face of the most honest character in the franchise, about going to collect his things, how they couldn’t reach it from there. Odin having his temper tantrum and killing Brok was the most honest thing Odin had ever done. The fact that he couldn’t pick up on this speaks very low about his intelligence.

      That's disingenous. In the original climbing and traversing are dynamic, and are either intercut with setpieces and combat or with puzzles consistently paced in between. There is no way to compare that with the climbing and traversing in the new games. It's pretty much objectevely a step down. God of war 4 is saved in that respect by the fact that the world is tightly built and usually you can get anyplace within a short airline distance.Ragnarok is far worse because the levels are much more filled with dead space and longer traversal sections.

    The whole reason the heimdall fight works is because heimdall just isnt a threat to kratos, through the fight kratos shows incredible battle tactics, he gauges heimdalls reflexes, then he increases his speed and tightens his punches to see just how far fast heimdall can counter, then he tightens his assault again and goes faster countering heimdalls foresight and landing a blow square on the cheek and from that point heindall drops the dodges because he knows that if he does it again kratos will just hit him again and again, the implication from early in the story is that if kratos just stopped holding back he could have just killed thor and odin right at the start, if holding back kratos landed a blow so could all out kratos, heimdall never stood a chance

SM posted his video on God of War Ragnorok and a bunch of smaller UA-camrs made response videos and SM desided to react to 1 in 1 of his livestreams of them by the name of ZeroNeedsCoffee. After reacting to it, SM incited harresment against ZNC and then SM made a video responding ZNC and the comments he got on his review.
    This atracted the attention of Mauler, who after watching SM's review, livestreams, response video and ZNC's response videos, desided to make a 4 hour video completely discrediting SM's review and showing everyone how much of a horrible person he is.
    This - in combination with UA-cam mass promoting shorts at the time - resulted in ZNC passing SM in subs and reaching 1 million subs, however if you look at his channel it's completely dead due to him soliciting underage nudes, people getting sink of him spamming shorts, him no longer making longform commentary videos and him burning a bunch of bridges with smaller commentary channels.

    These are some things i noticed were misrepresented that are aside from all that dudes personal feelings abt the game. Pre "well actually☝️🤓" ass post
    - Mimir explained that u lost your abilities bc of Fimbulwinter
    - Kratos said they were preparing for the fight during the timeskip bc they werent ready, not just hiding
    - They have a protection stave that prevents Freya from getting to them (literally say that in the sled fight)
    - Kratos denied Odins offering bc he has accounts from Mimir, Sindri, Brok, Freya, etc. that you cant trust him (established in the last game as well as this one)
    - Angrboda aside from giving Loki the giant soul marbles, helps Loki with his magic, she comes back later to teach him how to weave the souls which creates Jormungandr and later brings back Fenrir, and goes with him on his journey to find the giants at the end (all aside from being Lokis wife in myth)
    - Kratos almost dies to Freya bc he said hed rather die than kill her, especially bc she saved Atreus' life
    - Hildisvini is in Myth as Freyas boar and is believed to be a form of a hero
    - Atreus wants to help Odin and finish the mask to use the knowledge it unlocks to find a way to defeat Odin (dont remember abt the preventing Ragnarok part Papa Gut said)
    - Freya was the goddess of death and war as well as love and beauty, so her being a strong character makes sense
    These are the facts i picked up on, but my god this guy was insufferable. But i dont wanna get into how dumb his personal feelings were cuz id go on forever. Appreciate Papa Gut calling out how dumb he was😂

    Just in case people missed it. There is a short dialogue in the beginning of the game where Mimir makes a snarky remark how Fimbulvetr wore down the magic and gear they used to have. To those that possibly don't know, Fimbulvetr isn't a normal winter. It's essentially a sign of the apocalypse that is coming. Kinda like the plagues that are in the bible. They are not a joke and are known to wear down people in general. But if you watch Synthetic mans streams, he talks over most dialogue so Mimir mentioning why they don't have their magic or gear went right over his head.

    So my cope for Kratos losing his skills in Ragnarok is that in God of War 2018 he was just chilling as a hunter whilst Faye took care of Atreus and suddenly he was endlessly fighting from the start to the end of the game taking on Draugr, Massive Beasts, the Gods themselves and then at the end he has finished his quest, revealed his secrets to his son, embraced his past and is a much calmer and open man.
    By Ragnarok he has been training Atreus throughout Fimbulwinter, focusing on teaching him how to survive should Kratos no longer be around. Essentially returning to the lifestyle he had been living by the beginning of God of War 2018. Not only that, when we first see him he's sitting in a cave, by the fire, making arrows whilst Atreus is out hunting instead of him. It's a much calmer situation in many ways and it's commented on multiple times by Thor during your fight with him, even pointing out that Kratos is struggling to remember his old moves.
    So if that helps anyone cope with that aspect of the game, it's yours, have it haha

And the reason why enemies had alot of health to him is cause he upgraded NOTHING till halfway through the game, he had a massive amount of upgrade points stored up and never used them. So yeah Mauler and his crew went over this review and picked apart all of his bullshit and lies of synthetic man.

The combat is great but you never actually get to enjoy it because the game never, ever stops blabbing. It stops constantly to talk, they talk throughout battles, they talk after the battles, it forces you to walk so they can talk some more and it never ends. Ragnarok is my least liked game in the series because it IS a great game but it doesn't want me to actually play, it wants to be a movie.
