*This starts to play*
*Freya:* "What is it?"
*Kratos:* "...Prepare yourself, there's a cocky God around"
“My ‘Dickhead Divinity’ sense is kicking in”
Kratos: "Maybe i can get new boots again"
I like how the theme has evolved from just being magni and modis theme to the “fighting Aesir servants to Odin” theme
The arrogant aesir that are only side roles and not a main antagonist
Honestly I'd call it something along the lines of "Will of The All-Father"
@@arias3295 shit that’s really good
You're actually praising them for reusing music? WOW! Sony fanboyism is sickening. No wonder Elden Ring curbed this game at the Awards. At least that game was actually criticized for doing the same things. And that game was ten times the size of this one and was STILL criticized for it. Hilarious how it's just okay if Sony games do it.
@@TheStraightestWhitest Jesus Christ man, it’s just a reused theme
3:17 "Ah, well. You and me then"
3:29 "Mmm... I can feel your frustration, you know. It is IMMENSELY satisfying"
4:18 "Hey, careful! These are new bracers"
5:49 "You... ACTUALLY HIT ME!"
5:56 "Slow down!"
best timing man tahnk you
"Wait... you expected the STICK to give you and ADVANTAGE?!?"
You forgot the best part
3:10 Bum Bum Bum, tss, Bum Bum Bum, tssss
@@ArmoredG Bruh
12:59 "Monster..." The most jerk-faced god in GOWR getting one last stab at Kratos before dying.
I have a theory that Heimdall said that just to get under Kratos' skin. Since he can read minds, there's every chance Heindall would have understood EXACTLY significance of that word to Kratos.
Nah that's dum
Nah that’s smort
I think the reason why Heimdall say “monster” is because he can see the true feeling of everyone. When kratos killing heimdall, he saw every single god fall in that rage of kratos. That’s why he say monster I think
Kratos… that was just…
@@hazamahasashi6100 He might've also said it to try to get Kratos to stop, cus Athena called him it, called Freya out after she implied he was her's. That word is extremely significant to him and he might've thought it would make him lapse.
“C’mon brother! You hit him once - just gotta find the right opening!”
"Strike, brother!"
"He's open"
“Now!”
"Kratos!!!!!! , This isnt you want to be" - Mimir
"Monster" - HeimBALL
"ughhh" (angry grunt) - Kratos
"Haha! There we are, armour fit for a god."
“What now brother?? “
“The spear remains our best chance..”
“OH wait? You expected the STICK to give you an advantage?!”
@@raybob8668*yawn.*
"Fight Continues"
I like how the music evolves in the 3rd phase as Heimdall becomes absolutely crazy after he lost his arm, and became much more dangerous.
And also way easier to fight.(at least for Kratos not me that mf got me struggling in hard difficulty)
The part after he gets hit and then he says "Slow Down" banger
6:03 is stamp
I think that the progression of this theme is the most genius thing I've ever heard:
In phase 1, the music has a steady tempo, rhythm, and melody. Reflecting that Heimdalls arrogance and confidence is at its highest.
When phase 2 starts, the theme still mirrors phase 1: Calm and collected. But, ot has one key difference. The closer Kratos gets to landing that first strike, the more intense the music becomes, with other instruments becoming more audible.
5:50 is when Kratos finally lands thst hit. And the music abruptly cuts. Showing Heimdalls complete and utter shock to the fact that he was actually STRUCK.
At 5:57, the music explodes, showing that Heimdall is going all out. Its intensity booms, reflecting his confidence exploding before him and leaving him in shambles.
Phase 3 is my favourite because it perfectly represents Heimdall snapping completely. The music struggles to stick to a main melody, representing heimdall struggling to keep himself together. It's strings play wildly, representing the flurry of attacks he throws at Kratos, just mindlessly attacking.
Yeah, that's all I've got
Tl;Dr, the music's progression represents heimdalls confidence shattering
7:11 _"Luck! That's all this is!"_
“AGH! OKAY STOP! STOP!”
This soundtrack is almost as fire the Blades of Chaos itself.
Making his theme a rework of Magni and Modi's was genius
Indeed
Albeit a little lazy
@@r3trobananas33 If that's the case then Garm's theme is worse. It's literally a rework of the Dragon from 2018, and it doesn't help that Garm's fight also has a very similar vibe to it, too.
@@r3trobananas33, I wouldn't say it's lazy. This soundtrack shows you the arrogance of Heimdall, the same arrogance as when you fought Magni and Modi.
@@simpsnovi100 I mean, then it's not really a Heimdall or Magni and Modi Fight theme, more of a "Battle Against an Arrogant Foe". Also isn't the second phase theme unique tho? I never heard it in the 2018 version
This theme describes Heimdall, at first he sounds menacing because he is one of the strongest, but as it grows through phase 1 to 3 it gets more aggressive as he does in the game when he keeps getting hit
5:49 "You... ACTUALLY HIT ME"
"SLOW DOWN!"
SLOW IT DOWN
“Come on, brother! You hit him once! You just have to find the right opening!”
@@anthonytorresproductions "Strike, brother!"
Have some Bïfrost, on me!
5:57 hits the hardest bro
"Slow down!"
“You… you ACTUALLY HIT ME!”
SLOW IT DOWN
My turn
Sad
Funny?
Hard to tell
6:45 give me chills during the fight , feels so epic 🎮🙏❤🔥
Facts saved the game before this fight on GmGow just for the music and for how fun it is to fight this guy badass game 10/10 Music And Everything
@@DarkReactions315 this soundtrack reminds me the vibes of God of War 2 somehow , it is like to almost remind the Kratos in his younger days as godslayer.
@@KenjiiDaGamer loved god of war 2 dope soundtrack aswell remake would be badass but could easly be messed up so it is good the way it is lol
You ever have Mimir, telling you to find your opening during that part? It’s soooo epic
@@kidhalloween8570Yyyyyess
5:58 Slow down!
For those who might be wondering why this theme is so similar to Magni and Modi's theme, I have a theory. This is the theme of the Lesser Aesir. Those who are Aesir gods, but are not as strong as Odin, Thor, or Baldur. Basically as Sif described. Brittle knives to be thrown into the face of a mountain. The reason this theme is not exactly the same as Magni and Modi is because Heimdall was of more use to Odin than the sons of Thor, but still not as useful as Thor or Baldur to be considered anything other than a Lesser Aesir
I think Heimdall is not a lesser aesir. He is one of the most powerful. He is up there with Baldur and Thor. Thor could beat him with his AOE but with Baldur it would be an endless battle. He can destroy anyone other than them and Odin easily.
@allah-a2353 Actually, I have even more reason to think Heimdall is of the lesser Aesir. Remember what Kratos said. "I have killed gods greater than him." Kratos also said during the fight, "the spear remains our best chance," meaning he had another idea in mind. The only thing remotely worrisome about Heimdall was his foresight and bifrost abilities. But think of it like this. Without his foresight ability, would Heimdall have lasted this long? Definitely not. And this is proven during the fight with Kratos. Being hit for the first time in his life, just ONCE, was enough for his powers of foresight to become completely useless. Being hit made him so angry that he actually LOST his foresight during the fight because he couldn't concentrate. This is evident by the fact that after the punch, Kratos can successfully hit him with any weapons. He doesn't even know how to use his sword properly, or how to use the horn to attack.
TLDR Heimdall has no combat experience, is nothing without his foresight or the tools given to him, and was honestly one of the easiest boss fights in the game. He put up less of a challenge than Magni and Modi did, and those two were confirmed lesser Aesir. Also, if Kratos confirms there are gods fsr greater than Heimdall, Heimdall is lesser in comparison
@@z_Blitzy_zhe still has the foresight after you hit him. He gets sloppy with it due to shock. If you don’t hit him for a while he will start to dodge the punches again im pretty sure. Also he is the son of Odin so there is already no way he is lesser Aesir. In game difficulty doesn’t translate into lore power. Thor was really easy too. He destroys anyone that isnt Thor or Odin and stalemates Baldur if his curse isn’t broken, otherwise he stomps Baldur too. Essentially you are saying his powers are what make him fearsome… yeah thats what makes them all fearsome?? Take away Thor’s lightning powers and he gets stomped, take away Baldurs invulnerability and he gets stomped. Thats how gods work. There are no other options to beat Heimdall, the spear was specifically made to defeat him. The reason why Kratos says “the spear remains our best chance” is because he can’t hit him even after the spear stuns him, and Mimir questions their strategy so Kratos responds with that because hes saying doesn’t matter that it didn’t work the first time we gotta keep trying as its the best chance we are gonna get at beating him. There is literally nothing else Kratos could have done without the spear. Heimdall’s death has a huge impact on the realms, Magni and Modi’s death is irrelevant.
Edit: Oh and the fact that he doesn’t really know how to fight proves he is really powerful not the opposite, because it means he is so OP he never even has to try when he fights, he even says in the fight with him that he doesn’t remember when he last had to use his sword, probably because either everyone is too scared to fight him or because he can just clap anyone easily. Which he can. His powers are incredibly overpowered, Heimdall represents talent/ability without training. If Heimdall took time to learn how to fight he would be impossible to beat.
@@z_Blitzy_z "TLDR Heimdall has no combat experience" Yes he does, fought in the Vanir war, Heimdall is very powerful he just arrogant. Thats the main reason he lost, if he controlled his ablites hes one of the most powerful Aesir, he had great potential but wasted it. He is not lesser, by a LONG shot.
@thomasalvarez6456 Magni and Modi also fought in the Aesir Vanir war and were still considered lesser Aesir. Also, he never did use his potential. Thus, he failed to be anything more than a watchdog for Odin
0:21 I like how also baldur’s sound track is included in this and magni modi theme is also included
I like how they created my game
“You’re dead Sunshine.”
They removed the trolls from this game because they figured Heimdall was the only one they needed
Underrated comment
Soundtrack fit for a God
Have some bifrost, on me!
@@handsomesquidward5160 lol
6:45 I really enjoy this part more than the others parts !
same it hits smothly
You can almost see Heimdall dodging to the beat as Kratos attacks.
“STRIKE BROTHER!”
Dude thank you so much for ripping this, I've been replaying the boss fight obsessively just to listen to this banger again
Me too. I had to upload this fantastic soundtrack.
"Now, whatcha got?" *cut to heimdall getting his face bashed in and choked to death*
Between Magni & Modi to Heimdall, I've started referring to this type of beat as simply "The Aesir Theme"
8:35 "YOU ARE DEAD SUNSHINE"
You think you can just walk away? No. That is not how this works. (Conjure a new arm and painfully scream) you do not get to decide MY FATE. You are dead sunshine.
8:57 - 9:35 love it, so haunting
0:53 Just discovered Baldur's theme plays here
Damn i miss Baldur
@@tentaclesxd3074 Me, too! Baldur was much more mysterious and seemed much more dangerous in the beginning, because we didn't know the reason why he came to us and he couldn't be defeated. I kind of got scared of the mysterious other gods, like Thor and Odin, because we didn't get to see them, but we heard stories about them and understood that they were even stronger than Baldur. I have no hate for Odin or Thor, but they had so much potential to come off as much more menacing, and not like a broken drunk and an old man desperately trying to control his own destiny, so to speak.
But speaking of Heimdall... I don't know which I like more, Baldur or Heimdall.
1:39 is Magni and Modi theme. 5:59 is “Slow Down theme”
This may be the most genius design for boss music I’ve heard.
2nd phase horns are the best. It feels so epic
"Did you know your son sounds like a goose when he gets hurt?! HUHH, HUHH!!"
“You think you can bring down Asgard!.. REAlly!!.”
I just absolutely love how the basic tempo gets more and more intense as the battle goes on, gives me goosebumps every time.
I have been looking for this track for ages, it is genuinely one of the coolest boss themes ever and I can't explain why. Thank you for posting this 🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
I personally LOVE that Heimdall re-uses Magni and Modi’s theme. Why? Think about it, how many times in the last game did we EVER hear about this guy? We only heard of the brothers because they showed up, neither of them are worth a damn in achievements or gravitas compared to Odin, Thor and Baldur and let’s be real Heimdall would be a footnote if he didn’t have the horn. So of course they share a boss theme, it shows that they’re threats, but not as big as the other 3, but still Aesir pawns of Odin that are a pain in the behind.
This theme to fire bro. The second part is hype.
Heimdall is so annoyingly attractive
6:45 is just so amazing I can't till new game plus comes out 😤
I'm not a musician, but, it is just my ears, or his theme has little snipets and notes of baldur's final boss battle music sprincled all over the song, may be just my imagination. THE FOLLOWING MAY BE A SPOILER:
It wold make sense, since Bauldur and Heimdall are the only two norse (MAIN) gods that Kratos directly Kills.
Magni?
I dont if we were breaking fate, or fate is breaking us
Heimdall- You expected the stick to give you an advantage?
5:49 “You actually hit me!” (SLOW DOWN)
6:45
same i love this part
@@wbb4448 right? It is underrated
@@Dominik0-0 agree they should have put it in more places in the game so the players notice it more cause it's so hyped
thank you! I was crazy looking for this
As a "no-Heimdall" person, i can confirm: this song touched me.
1:34 "Now... whatcha got?"
Ye can't blame haimdal literaly he never ever has being touch to that single moment at the point that he can't belive kratos actully conect a punch on him. Si the fact that he is cocky all the time is just cus all the trust he have in his ability of predict every move before. So he died cus wen that didn't work he don't actully know how to figth with a opponent cleary stronger than him .
“What’s going on in that empty head*
6:05
I don't remember the last time anyone HIT me
Heimdall: Slow it down
Strike, brother!
“You..are way over your head”!
Absolute fire
5:58 *S L O W D O W N*
3:29 Jak and Daxter vibes
I love how the undertake bells were going off on the second half of the ost 10:25
5:50 *_SLOW DOWN!_*
Heimdall's look is so psycopath he face looks like he is looking for a fight
Heimdall absolutely would have killed Kratos if he kept his head and adapted. But he gets super pissed and loses his only advantage.
Sisters of fate > Heimdall
Heimdall would still lose ngl, Kratos’s Battle IQ and agility is insane and him not holding back would’ve been unfair.
@ffm1841nah lads just spitting facts. Sure heimdall is a slippery snake but we’ve seem kratos adapt to even the quickest of opponents.
Hermes…
@@moleman5178Not to mention the fact that he killed Baldur, Baldur THE UNKILLABLE GOD
@@TheCorrodedMan wasn’t unkillable when he got his neck snapped. That’s what the whole mistletoe mess revolved around
Imagine in the third game or in more Ragnarok dlcs Stories the fight against The dragons we freed and also the Kraken and the mysterious wolf Horodviltnir Father of wolves Skoll and Hati
and also against the Gods:
Forseti,Hela,Hermod,Vidar,Vali and Loki/Atreus Adult Now as a villain + The heroes Siegfried/Sigurd & Beowulf and The return of Baldur,Heimdall,Magni and Modi and also Odin and Thor are still alive Imagine what it will be like their theme songs 🤔😎😌👍 like and Bye!
3:09 - 3:15 / 7:10 - 7:18 / 8:06 - 8:10 /Extra+ 12:38 - 13:02
I cant remember the last time someone....................HIT me
You do not decide my fate!!!!!!
3:17 All well YOU AND ME THEN
The beginning has hints of Baldur's theme
The only God in the Norse saga to give Kratos a run for his Money
Thor is Greek apparently
_STRIKE BROTHER_
5:57 Kratos finally lands a hit
Heimdall charcter is dfferient from the rest of esir gods
3:04
So it's a remix of the modi and magni ost. Actually, it's the same
There's a little bit of Baldurs theme in there
It is not the same...
Loved this battle! Such an awesome soundtrack. My only complaint is that it was way too easy. He barely hits you.
Gowr was my first gow game to start with a considering I’m mostly a Nintendo fan DAME this hits hard those drums are so good
You need to catch up with the OG games
*SLOW DOWN*
Heimdick theme
They definitely nailed him being a complete asshole in this game. He is reminscent of the Gods in the earlier games for being such a dick.
@@MattCange yup gladly kratos f*cked him up for good hehe
Where did Heimdall's soul go?
Nowhere. Gods don’t go to any afterlife, they just vanish. That’s why Odin was so set on discovering the secret beyond Ragnorak; he wanted to know the truth of where gods go when they die, if anywhere.
@@TheCorrodedManthe souls of gods ascend to a higher realm of existence like Athena’s in the original games
@@Tarnishedgrimm _Some_ gods do that. Most just disappear; that’s why Odin was so deadset on finding a way to avert Ragnorak. He didn’t know what came next for gods after death, so he resolved to find out no matter the cost.
so is the first part supposed to be gulltoper
2:36 I don't know why am getting Zelda BFTW (Stone Talus) Vibes in this part.
Anyone know if this songs on spotify ?

3:09 Favorite part to me
It's the same with magni and modi

First comment in 2 months
This theme is too fast for my liking.....Slow down ! SLOW. IT. DOWN
As much as I love Gow 2018 and Ragnarok, and Rag is actually my fav game in the series even tho Ive been a big fan of the series since the ogs, but if there is one thing that I hate about the ragnarok and the old games does miles better , is the music, by far Ragnarok has the worst collection of soundtracks in the series, which Is ironic considering it's my favorite one but goddamn does it really hurt me when everytime a boss fight comes up, and I'm hear aching for something good to kick in, I start hearing the same repetitive and generic combat soundtracks that every assassin's creed has, my first disappointment was when I heard Gow ragnarok theme before it came out and I thought it was a joke because it sounded litteraly like a copy pasted version of Gow 2018 theme.
Thor Theme was relatively the only good soundtrack that I've heard so far and I'm yet to finish the game but something tells me Odins theme will be like every generic Gow 2018 combat soundtrack, I'll edit this comment if Im wrong
Edite, porque vc esta errado
Santa Monica Studio has become this lazy. Heimdall doesn't even have his own boss soundtracks like those berserkers as well. They just recycled Magni and Modi battle theme here. No wonder Elden Ring has been humiliating new God of War throughout 2022 already
Well, Elden ring recycled animations and sound effects from Dark Souls III. So what's your point here? I played both games, and I enjoyed them both.
Another elden ring meatrider, ah great to see
@@simpsnovi100 Everyone when Elden Ring is ten times bigger than Ragnarok and recycles a few themes: ''Omfg it's literally criminal that they reused assets!''
Everyone when Ragnarok is a 16 hour game but reuses not just soundtracks from itself, but even outright from the previous game: ''This is literally genius!''
Not even exaggerating. Here you are hating on Elden Ring like a pathetic loser, while your comment section praises that this is literally just Magni & Modi's theme. Why did they even hire a composer? He did nothing for this game. And that's why this track has 38k views like most other GOWR tracks, while Elden Ring's tracks average on 1M-5M views.
@@TheStraightestWhitest ROFL
@@simpsnovi100 Cope. Elden Win curbed Midnarok.
good music but is nothing compare to gow 1
Superou
Main Bosses are was a huge disappointment....
and why is that?
Naah massive L take, they were a huge improvement from 2018 and mostly epic.
@@haruyoshida2338 All fucker 😂
Bro wants to fight a Draugr instead of odin🤣🤣
bosses in this game were tight af, second only to GOW2 in the series.
solid amount of story and optional bosses without being too bloated or repeated. only disappointment for me is the raven keeper shouldve been a unique boss instead of a revenant re-skin and traveler bosses kinda suck ass a little bit to fight.
Not really a fan of how they just reworked magni and modi's theme.kinda seemed lazy to me. But I still like it to a degree
