The absolute unspokeness between Kratos and Thor and how they understood each other as warriors and enemies it's so well made in dialogue it's absolutely amazing.
@@TheNightWatcher1385 that's a good point, I never thought of that. I just generally assumed that being themselves warriors they would never stoop to that depth of deception. But, you know what, that could possibly happen, especially with Odin being involved later in the conversation.
Yep. When GoW released in 2018 I was like wtf is this Dad simulator and now I'm sitting here just seeing how Kratos really is a great Dad who just wanted the best world for his son.
I love how Thor is portrayed. In the mythos he was never a particularly bright person so much as he was an extremely powerful fighter. Pretty much the same here and he was the only god in this game asides from Odin himself who gave Kratos a helluva run for his money.
Yeah Thor is the strongest god in his Mythos i mean asgard built a wall because Thor wasn’t around as much to protect them he be out adventuring and killing
@@musafirghayrmaeruf1 the disappearing? He’s always been able to do that, it was just on camera this time. Dwarves have a way to sort of slip between the realms, as I think he said it.
@@abdulbah2176 Why does that matter? Point is he just said straight up no to the most powerful being in the realm and didn't explain himself or bargain.
The thing that breaks me every single time is when Kratos, upon inspecting the back of the shrine, he can see how he is portrayed as a beloved God and leader. And it looks if that was always his desire... Little he knew he was already loved by us, all this time
He was feared as a monster, a destroyer of pantheons, a god killer. He himself feared that he could never change. But to see that prophecy, that guiding path that a future exists where he unites the people and is loved and worshiped by them... and that his wife knew that he had it in him all along... that made him misty-eyed. It's also subtle, but you can see the embossed shape of Thor and Atreus, meaning this was the death mural of Kratos; but it has been painted over with this new future of him uniting the people and being beloved. Faye changed their future and guided them both towards a more beautiful future that would persist long after she was gone; for her son and Kratos whom she loved. Now he is loved by all, including us.
I love when when Kratos calls his axe it hits enemies on the way if there’s combat occurring, but kratos couldn’t see Thor’s hammer hitting him from behind 😂and thor calls kratos a “dumbass” the irony
Anyone notice that there is a tinniest nod between Kratos and Thor after the fight around 37:24 ? That is an unimaginable attention to emotional details! Love it!
Thor: "This feels familiar." He's fought the axe before but he's too drunk in his way to connect the dots. Faye used the axe to whip his ass in the rebellion against Asgard.
I like that final phrase by Atreus to Odin. You can see, that Kratos really teached him to be reasonable, to be responsible and value life. He teached him to be better
Which also perfetly parallels Atreus's scene with Modi in GOW4. Instead of outright killing Odin as an indulgence, Atreus tried to give Odin a chance to change for the better. Amazing character development right there
Watching this after watching the Gods of Olympus being brutally destroyed really shows how much Kratos is holding back for Atreus. But it also makes me ridiculously curious to see that ruthless Kratos fight/interact with all the Norse gods.
It's really great how they show the true journey of a father. It is incredibly spot on. The badass dad that is uncomfortable in the beginning and still gruff and uncertain, then grows to really care and teach him the ways he wish he could have been but was forced otherwise, then shows through example and forcefully holds back although he is still that badass but sees his son becoming what he was because he screwed up a few times and it actually scares him "no, don't be like i was, be better" then although it was rocky and he wants to continue to teach him he sees and has to hope and have faith he did the best he could and was successful so he has to let go and trust he's right, then sees he did well, succeeded in breaking the violent cycle and is proud of his son for being better than he was (and some self pride too) and he finally has faith to let him go on his own, sees the kid knows he has too and still shows that if need be he's there, and if that man ever has to go help his son who is now a man, there will be no holding back.
@L.T.C well not necessarily, it's no different than kids sneaking out of the house and going to parties or something in the real world. A good percentage of kids do things similar to what he did and turn out fine. It's just a kid being a kid. And he really thought he was doing something good, his "fate" he believes in. There is nothing to really indicate he's going to "be a bitch". He ripped a Valkarie in half while transformed into a bear lol. Pretty sure he's going to turn out to be a decent and badass dude for sure.
@@nebulous9280 Given Baldur's immortality I still think this would be atleast two games (like gow 1, kill Ares and then immediatly on Olympus) Also it would be interesting if they would make something like Gow alternate realities, where we could explore what would have happened if Kratos wasnt in Norse. Because I can clearly see Baldur being Norse equivalent of Kratos. Hating his mother for making him lose everything, he would set out to kill her, but as she is dying in his arms he would found out that Odin forced her to make him immortal because he is afraid of death (just like Zeus). Than Baldur would travel into Helheim to seek out Hel, goddess of death and find a way to die. Than with her help (potential for romance, Hel is supposed to be wife/lover/consort of Baldur in some sources) he would destroy his body, creating a Ragnarok. But his soul would be transfered into different body and he will take new name: Nodr (don't know if mentioned the right god, the blind one who killed Baldur with mistletoe arrow). Than will be marching and killing gods across the realms, rescuing Loki from his imprisonment, releasing Surtr, potentional progress in love between Baldur and Hel (maybe marriage, once you Rescue Loki and maybe Angrboda and her other two siblings: Fenrir and Jormungandr) At last there will be final fight in Asgard against Odin. And then a choice between two paths: Night, stay in the now destroyed world and be happy with Hel and others, or Day, reset everything and be reborn in new world, where you can start a new life from scratch. Atleast I think it would be interesting or they can make a comic out of it.
@yoliza1212 absolutely insane that you can watch this video and still say that Kratos is weak or has no powers lol. We've seen him heal himself after fighting baldur, and we've seen him use his godly strength many times in both games. He defeated thor who is the strongest this pantheon has to offer, killed a god that could see attacks coming before they happened, and everything else. If he was weak or had no powers, baldur would have killed him in the first fight. The difference between Kratos then and now is that he's no longer overpowered but he's still a god with godly abilities.
i didn't noticed this before, but in 43:50 Atreus reaches for his dagger after he says "there's always a choice" but pulls his hand away....THAT GROWTH
Kratos took out the Greek gods with too much ease, to the point he was ridiculously OP, Here, he had to work, chip away. Made it way way more interesting.
He isn’t the same kratos here. Against the Greek pantheon his rage offered him nearly limitless strength. I mean he literally got killed multiple time and clawed his way out of hell because he was too angry to die. That rage is gone Against the Norse gods
Watching this scene with Baldur again... The dialogue was so direct but so cryptic, that everyone thinks he's talking about Kratos- yet he was talking about Faye from Jotunnheim all that time. Absolutely magnificent!
Probably in the next game Atreus will visit Egypt looking for other Giants and we get to play as him, while Kratos rebuilds Midgard with Freya and Mimir, becoming the All-Father and finally living in peace
@@HaradaCh if i remember correctly Kratos was supposed to end up in Egypt but it was close to Greece, so he had to go as far as possible from his past and he ended up in the Norse mythology, so it makes sense if Egypt is next but hey who knows they might surprise us
Something I like about this game is its stance is on prophecies and the future. The giants can see the future but, they can only see the big events. The Norns can also see the future, but they can see everything. The reason the Norns can see the future better than the giants is because the Norns don't see the future as something that will happen, but rather they see it as something that will probably happen. And when Kratos starts to see this and teaches Atreus this point of view, they forged their own path that didn't involve the prophecies of the giants. They weren't the characters told in the prophecy, they were Kratos and Atreus. They did things because they felt it was necessary, not because it was written. And by bonding together as father and son, they became better.
6:54the subtle dodge kratos does is so sweet. At first he was getting pummeled by Baldur, but as the fight went on and he got more and more sick of his shit. His fighting nature started coming out and even though he is slower, he’s able to react ahead of time. Gold
There is so much attention to detail in the fight 35:10 with Thor. Everything from how he picks Thor up and throws him down like a piece of rock to the giant THUD with how heavy Thor is to the epic 3hit combo spear thrusts. There was so much emphasis on that part it literally felt like the most epic thing ever
It's even cooler when you realise when he said "the cycle ends here", Zues says the same thing when he kills kratos in God of war 2. "We must be better" is the line he got from Fey, so the mixture of the two phrases is pretty sick.
This game shows how guilt is a silent and life long killer of any beings ability to heal and become better than their past and how this journey is more than just about him and his son but was always about kratos and that even a god of war can find peace from the pain his caused and not live the titles chosen for him in order to do rig he by others.
Kratos is the pure definition of regardless of the decisions you make in Life. The hardest thing to do is stay humble amongst all this madness. He could have ripped 😮this guy apart.
I love Kratos’ character development in the last two games transitioning from go1,2,3 because you see him get slapped and punched by baldur and him be calm, kratos punches down baldur and after he picks him back up to try to make a form of peace
*Kratos:* 8:54 Magni the God of Forge 14:35 Baldur the God of Light 30:49 Heimdall the God of Foresight *Odin:* Thor the God of Thunder 38:10 *Sindri:* Odin the King of Gods 46:01 *Himself:* Freyr the God of Rain 47:12
Great detail adding the Os rune in Odin's eye patch, which symbolizes the spiritual power through your speech. The power of suggestion itself! You can see the love all over this piece.
55:29 this really hurts. Kratos was an unstoppable god-killer who only exist to kill gods and wage warfare, feeding on prayers of warriors going to war, and violence and warfare and destruction, but for the first time, Kratos was afraid to lose Atreus because Kratos, deep down, was the last of his god generation, the last of the spartans and the last of his civilization, he is truly alone in a strange foreign land and for the first time, he was afraid and lonely and vulnerable because he was alone,the last of his generation..
What's funny is Atreus leaving, dude no one can fuck with him, he's like the kid in middle school who his dad was like the mafia boss lmfao, as a last resort he could literally just be like, yeah my dad is Kratos and all the enemies are like yeah never mind, I don't wanna kill you anymore, dudes already taken down two pantheons lmaooo
That's the thing if the next game and Atreus goes to Egypt and he fights a god,at the end every God is gonna be like "oh so yo papa the ghost of Sparta? Well shit,u have a nice day and ima leave u alone aight?"
People still didn't catch when kratos told mimir that he lost all the powers he gained from the gods he killed in Olympus thor is still fighting a weaker version of kratos and kratos defeated him with raw power wow
He lost most of his magic, not his godly strength. This Kratos is a lot stronger than his younger self in terms of raw strength since Greek gods grow stronger with time.
I just found it weird to suggest he wanted to be a loved God, when since the beginning he was just a really violent guy, but in the end he just wanted settling down and be peaceful. I never felt like he wanted deserving devotion
When he whispers to atreus at thor's arrival, he actually says "hide mimir" if you use headphones with the volume all the way up, you can just about hear him say it
To be honest, i was really hoping that freya and kratos were gonna hold hands in the end. The pair have grown close throughout the games. While she sought venegance for him killing her son kratos never thought ill of her, always trying to peacefully resolve it. Freya then chose to forgive him and stand beside him. Now they walk together, side by side and i kinda hope they end up together.
Kratos wouldn't. He bears the guilt of two dead wives, having just spread the ashes of one. And I doubt Freya will develop feelings for Kratos, as she said in Vanaheim, she cannot truly forgive him for what he did to her son.
Freya is too much of a psycho mom to go for someone that killed her bastard child. And Kratos is still coping with the fact he's wearing his wife and daughter's ashes on his skin for the rest of his life and had scattered the ashes of his last wife. No way in fuck will either even think of touching each other. LOL
Thanks for this. Never been a huge gamer overall outside of sports games, but this was unreal as a movie fan. Next level lore and graphics off the charts.
That moment Thor kills you and you get the death screen, and he revives you. I totally forgot about that, but i instantly remembered my first reaction when i saw it again xD

I love Kratos’ character development in the last two games transitioning from go1,2,3 because you see him get slapped and punched by baldur and him be calm, kratos punches down baldur and after he picks him back up to try to make a form of peace
24:49 how much people got the goosebumps when hearing this for the first time and seeing something new coming to god of war!!😮
Lol Thor just won't let him die
Whoever come out with the idea,is a genius
I loved the part that he stood up to thor and his father and said "NO" 😱😎😎
Yup
And then he died
*Kratos:*
8:54 Magni the God of Forge
14:35 Baldur the God of Light
30:49 Heimdall the God of Foresight
*Odin:*
Thor the God of Thunder 38:10
*Sindri:*
Odin the King of Gods 46:01
*Himself:*

It should be
Heimdall the god of pricks

I thought Magni was the god of strength

Thanks
Baldur: "I feel no pain!"
Also Baldur at 2:00: *Feels pain*
He didn’t feel pain though
@@TheRealGazebo He did. You can literally hear him groaning in pain. Replay the timestamp many times over if you doubt it.
@@primalvelocity3811 it’s more of sheer discomfort, he can’t feel paint but he can feel his muscles and bones being moved past their necessary point
i think he was just pretending to feel it
@@tonypizzapasta9960 what’s the difference between that and pain?
55:23 when you realize this scene is included in the video because here Kratos definetely killed the God of war, for he must be better
Great detail adding the Os rune in Odin's eye patch, which symbolizes the spiritual power through your speech. The power of suggestion itself! You can see the love all over this piece.
Baldur flexing till he snaps like a twig 💀
Heimdall was the best kill so far. So satisfying. He was so cocky, and it really had something relieving when Kratos blasted off his arm.
This was biggest fight in every gamer history 🔥

Villain spoke long dialogue then kratos be like: NO!
i cant be the only person that cried at that ending never would have thought kratos would have my ass sitting here crying
The way Thor says "dumbass" to Kratos in their first fight is hilarious
Kratos got no chill
He is so chill. All of them were merciful killings.
He didn’t want too
Sindri*
At all😂
Bruh
He's literally the chillest he's ever been in this 2 GoW games
I imagine thor and kratos being dad bros drinking beers in their front yard lmao
This game is a literal fucking masterpiece I'm so astounded by how well the producers made this!
“If the moment calls for calm…” he never mentions reasonable. Kratos isn’t reasonable when you threaten him or his child.
55:29 this really hurts. Kratos was an unstoppable god-killer who only exist to kill gods and wage warfare, feeding on prayers of warriors going to war, and violence and warfare and destruction, but for the first time, Kratos was afraid to lose Atreus because Kratos, deep down, was the last of his god generation, the last of the spartans and the last of his civilization, he is truly alone in a strange foreign land and for the first time, he was afraid and lonely and vulnerable because he was alone,the last of his generation..
What's funny is Atreus leaving, dude no one can fuck with him, he's like the kid in middle school who his dad was like the mafia boss lmfao, as a last resort he could literally just be like, yeah my dad is Kratos and all the enemies are like yeah never mind, I don't wanna kill you anymore, dudes already taken down two pantheons lmaooo
Facts 🤣🤣🤣
That's the thing if the next game and Atreus goes to Egypt and he fights a god,at the end every God is gonna be like "oh so yo papa the ghost of Sparta? Well shit,u have a nice day and ima leave u alone aight?"
These two games have some of the greatest video game voice acting performances ever tbh
Mmmmm not sure about that.
More like some of the worst….
^^^^^
🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
The voice acting in GOW 2018 + 2022 is GOAT get over it
Absolutely agree
@@lorenzopastorelli1114like to see you do better then hater
I love the thought that Kratos can just literally be to angry to die
Kind of lame that you censored a lot of the actual death scenes
Thor was absolutely perfect in this game, it’s unexplainable.
22:16
the build up and the response made me crack up
That fight vs Thor is one of the rawest things I've seen in a video game and will be for a while
Mimir is a G for taking all the damage kratos gets
21:25 hearing this part now, he really does sound like the voice actor for Armstrong (who he actually voiced for the unaware)
Its the same actor
@@rassest exactly my point
This game's senario is better than most of the movies. I wish one day a real movie will be made too.
It would be woke garbage
@@Eddi3xBac0n In assassin's creed movie, they did what you said, but I hope they won't do that to this game.
@@BlitZ-KrieGno that movie was just garbage. Last of us made a tv show that’s very good just like the game
People still didn't catch when kratos told mimir that he lost all the powers he gained from the gods he killed in Olympus thor is still fighting a weaker version of kratos and kratos defeated him with raw power wow
He lost most of his magic, not his godly strength. This Kratos is a lot stronger than his younger self in terms of raw strength since Greek gods grow stronger with time.
@@tachimesan6133 yup
@@tachimesan6133 Younger Kratos was more heartless and ruthless while the older version is a lot more powerful
bro they rlly did the combo breaker on odin at 43:07
Gotta retire at that point💀💀💀
@@gravelordnito6950Sindri retire him💀
Bro isk why but I started crying when Kratos said “Atreus remains.” Idk why it was so sad
I just found it weird to suggest he wanted to be a loved God, when since the beginning he was just a really violent guy, but in the end he just wanted settling down and be peaceful. I never felt like he wanted deserving devotion
When he whispers to atreus at thor's arrival, he actually says "hide mimir" if you use headphones with the volume all the way up, you can just about hear him say it
I love how the cutscenes look so real because of the camera Actually moving
What I love about the new GOW games is there’s more actual martial art techniques than just punches and blade swings
I love the way that Kratos gets the brutality achievement when fighting Heimdall
To be honest, i was really hoping that freya and kratos were gonna hold hands in the end. The pair have grown close throughout the games. While she sought venegance for him killing her son kratos never thought ill of her, always trying to peacefully resolve it. Freya then chose to forgive him and stand beside him. Now they walk together, side by side and i kinda hope they end up together.
Kratos wouldn't. He bears the guilt of two dead wives, having just spread the ashes of one. And I doubt Freya will develop feelings for Kratos, as she said in Vanaheim, she cannot truly forgive him for what he did to her son.
@@maledictum7300 not to mention he's cover in the blood and ashes of his previous family the main reason for his nick name "ghost of sparta"
@@maledictum7300 I agree. It would be dumb if they got together.
Freya is too much of a psycho mom to go for someone that killed her bastard child. And Kratos is still coping with the fact he's wearing his wife and daughter's ashes on his skin for the rest of his life and had scattered the ashes of his last wife. No way in fuck will either even think of touching each other. LOL
Bobby East:
Third time’s the charm! 😂
At 17:05 I feel like Kratos sits like this because he was use to having a throne after Athena made his God of War and gave him one
God of war 2018-Ragnarok
The story of Kratos pulling his punches 24/7 cause he’s trying to be a better person.
Bro is trying his best to hold back and still folding gods💀
@@hajun9656 if he not hold back, 1 punch will decapitate every god, whether he feels pain or not

Thanks for this. Never been a huge gamer overall outside of sports games, but this was unreal as a movie fan.
Next level lore and graphics off the charts.
Moral of the story "Leave the place you are not belong and move to place where you will be valued for who you are"
I love how atreus has the same personality as kratos and its just like a little kratos😂
"I do not wish to intrude" that's how we know he is a great father
6:45 Kratos using his god powers
Great video, I watched the whole thing while I was supposed to be studying.
Baldar was by far the best villain in the Norse series.
Odin would be , but they butchered the ending, doing the minimal ending I could have predicted literally 5 years ago after I finished the first game.
@@brandonbaltes6850 hmmm?
Kinda true
But Odin and Thor weren't bad either

I love how the walking cut was in perfect sync😂
"THERE ARE CONSIQUENCES TO KILLING A GOD!"
Sindri: I don't remember asking.
13:55 this is the most litt fight ever
That moment Thor kills you and you get the death screen, and he revives you. I totally forgot about that, but i instantly remembered my first reaction when i saw it again xD
I later understood that Baldur was actually looking for Faye instead he met Kratos not knowing that Faye is dead.
14:32 Kratos didn't even wait before tea bagging
Fiiinally yeeees. Thank you sooo much. I wanted a video where it shows killing all of the enemies but without the health bars, only scenes. Thank you
OUT OF ALL THE GAMES IN THE WORLD.....NOTHING HAS SATISFIED ME AS GOD OF WAR SERIES. PERFECTION AND SATISFACTION 100%

As much as a manipulator Odin is, this is by far the smartest quote ever spoken in the GoW franchise.
