I really couldn’t have asked for a better ending for Kratos’ character. He basically went from a god of war to a god of peace and justice and it was done so well. The final scene with thor really cements it for me
It's what Gods of War actually are. One half are brutal and bloodthirsty, yearning for wars to break loose, like how Kratos once was, and the other half is wise and peacekeeping, using war to end the war and bring about peace once more, like how Kratos is now. The same logic applies to Ares and Athena, the two ACTUAL gods of war in Greek Mythology. Tldr; yeah it's pretty f*cking dope.
at the end of the game kratos be like "I have brought peace, freedom, justice and security to my new empire" atreus : "Your new empire?" Kratos: "DON'T MAKE ME KILL YOU"
Fun fact the scene where Atreus put's Odin's soul inside the marble, is a direct parallel to the depiction of Kratos's death in the mural, you'll also notice that on the third panel of the board which shows Kratos in golden, u'll actually see Thor on the right side, suggesting that this panel was originally meant to represent Kratos's death, but because of his choices he has written a new future
You know... The moment that really finished me off was right at the end of Brocks memorial, when Mimir suddenly realized the answer to that one riddle Brock had given him ages ago. "What gets bigger the more you take away?" The answer is "A hole". Though the answer could arguably also be Sindri. At his strongest after everything was taken from him.
Yeah it was good for me too. I didn't bother to really try and solve it despite knowing that I had heard that riddle from somewhere else. I just figured that it would be revealed eventually after like a side quest. Did not know it would have any actual significance
As sindri said: I gave you everything. My skills, my friendship, my home, my secrets, my treasures... and you just kept taking. And now what have I got? Not even my family. You keep taking and taking, but the hole always gets bigger
0:11 - 1:09 I love how he was so confident that he was gonna beat the Valkyries and then grew tired of them regenerating their health over 3x 😂 “You can’t trust hot serial killers.”
I don't know how but Zanny's managed to make 2 million people care about his dogs to the point where I'm sad if there's no puppy break. Now we just need a video dedicated to them
I'm so proud of Zanny's acceptance of boy. It went from the alcoholic father demanding beer's to them beating up old men and destroying civilizations together. It has been a fun journey
That Berserkers gank fight is a nightmare. I was so relieved at first when I saw there were two of them, because I thought they would be weaker than a standard Berserker individually. They weren't.
When I first experienced the ending for myself, I cried for like half an hour. Even now, seeing how much Kratos and Atreus have grown over these 2 games, it makes me cry hard.
@@nguyentrunghieu5674 Yeah it was rushed, they should have made another one. Or at least cut out another part of the game to flesh out the end. All of that build up for raganorok and it was pretty mediocre.
I'm with you. The ending definitely made me bawl my eyes out, it still does 😭😭 The enitre story was amazing, some parts obviously a bit rushed to fit it as much as possible but omg, they still managed to make me so emotional, whether happy or sad. Amazing game, not to mention the gameplay with all the new bosses/enemies was amazing to go through 🤧💖
It deserved those 6 awards ngl. It got 10 nominations and won 6 of them AND was almost game of the year even despite being out late in the year as opposed to elden ring being released early 2022. The game is basically a masterpiece
@NoThisIsPatrick it had recency bias but didn't have the time for many in the community to fully experience it by the time the awards went on. Also elden ring was released early enough for its community to fully dive into and explore and exploit. I'd say that outweighed the recency bias. Both games are great though so no hate from me.
I really love it when they hug at the end. I had to finish the rest of the game fighting to keep my tears at bay as to not lose focus on the berserkers that lie before me.
Brok’s legacy and memory will live on in the Deep Rock series, whenever that comes out also good luck with King Hrolf and the Valkyrie, decently tough bosses i recommend going for King Hrolf first, you get something very cool and worth the fight
11:51 this moments bring tears to most testosterone filled men, absolutely incredibly delivered. Also that video with Pedro is spot on my reaction, i felt a wave a happines next seccond rivers down my face
When Zanny said Gjhallarhorn I don’t know why I half expected a rocket launcher 😂… I may have ptsd from that thing Also Zannys love and thunder line couldn’t have been more accurate
2:22 most of the times my dreams are also just weird gibberish, but in rare cases it feels like being stuck in a blockbuster movie. God of War: Ragnarök gave me one heck of a tearjerker. After starting the game and almost crying when Fenrir dies, I had a dream of entering the realm of the dead by crossing the River Styx. When I arrived at the gates of the underworld, I was surprisingly greeted by my dog Odin(when I was 6-7 an named him, I didn't even know of Nordic lore) that had recently passed away(he was like 15 or 16 and stroke took him away, he went quietly and without pain in his sleep in the vets office). He was being pet by the bony gatekeeper when I arrived and when he turned around he just directly ran at me, furiously wagging his tale and jumping at me for pets and cuddles. The dream sadly ended with me holding him and waking up. My face and eyes were all wet, I wish it had went on for a while more. He was the goodest boy.
I was holding myself back from saying who killed Odin in the last video. Glad Sindri had some way of avenging his brother. But until he fills that hole... well, he'll continue to suffer.
Aside from the refined combat and unparalleled acting, what pleased me most was how the game understood the player. Calling out our looting, petting Fenrir, annoying the squirrel, all felt like the developers knew us. Although I am happy with Elden Ring, I am proud that Ragnarok made it work for the GOTY.
Holy this game was beautiful, Kratos having to return to his old life one last time to protect the ones he loves, and finally not having to be the monster everyone thinks he is, and truly becoming the god he always wanted to be
endgame is doing muspelheim trials, these remnants of asgard fights, berserkers, and there is also a SECOND valkyrie queen postgame boss fight you can do by taking a hidden path on the right side of the arena in muspelheim
I had watched your previous video on Ragnarök because I was caught up. But I saw this video get posted and remembered that I didn't finish the game since I had been preoccupied with work life and other games. Played the rest in 6hours and immediately came to watch this video. It was worth. Thank you Zanny.
After the issues with the 2v2 Berserker fight we need another video of the Ultimate Gank 3v2(1?) in Alphiem, plus the royalty Hrólf and Gná fights After the Sigrun video pls Zanny we must know the struggle
Yet another amazing part of the game:The major credits only roll after Brok’s funeral side quest. So, the official end of the game is only after you compete this side quest. The nice thing is, it’s a side quest that the player wants to complete. Truly amazing game development
zanny i just wanna say man you make me happy as hell bro. i was having a bad day cus my girl left me and i was just scrolling thro youtube and found your video and just watching you and hearing your voice made me happy bro. idk how you all ways sound so happy. thank you zanny.

-Having fun
-petting animals
-colors
-being able to show us his drip-making skill
