Unrelated to the point of the video but when Freya throws Atreus at 1:28:06 you can hear him yelp like a wolf. Nice little bit of foreshadowing for his own Spartan Rage ability later in the game

I feel like it was a missed opportunity. Imagine seeing the flashbacks with Faye, and we see Kratos as he likely was when she met him. Gives a new dimension to things.
@@SaxyCalzone Tbh Kratos and Faye only met less than 2 decades before the first game. I think. Him having such a drastic change wouldn't make much sense, but I think Kratos having a different or shorter beard could've been the best. As for his age, he would largely look the same as he currently does.
I love to see young Kratos in the cinematics, it feels that this Game is actually a sequel of the original trilogy. bearded old Kratos is great for the narrative but it kind of feels like a different character from the one of the greece saga.
Seeing Young Kratos blowing the horn, leading the armies, admitting to Atreus he's wrong of closing his heart, seeking Justice not Vengeance, and changes the assault to save the innocence from Asgard, hits in such a different level. Thank you for the effort of making such a long video 😊
I don’t think that people understand that Kratos although fueled by his hatred to gods and those who defend them! But even in the Greek GOW games there are people he loves and would let do way more than just this to lol (wife whom I can’t remember the name of, Caliope, Deimos, Athena, pandora, etc)
You don't actually understand Kratos. He is no machine that is programmed to attack whoever comes closer. He is a human who became a God. A human who still hides a spark of love in his soul. A human that seeks redemption.
@ couldn’t of said it better myself! He didn’t just kill whenever he sees! Even gods lol, he didn’t want to kill most of the Greek pantheon they just got in the way! He didn’t kill Hera until she called pandora a wh0re, he didn’t want to kill Hercules, etc!
With YOUNG KRATOS we can see his Facial Expressions more clear! Plus we get to look at the Differences of him With and Without the BEARD, a Progression on Facial Hair!
Eu gosto do novo design do Kratos, mas falando sério, 4:22:44 OLHA PRA CARA DO KRATOS JOVEM, OLHA A EXPRESSÃO DE FÚRIA DELE, se os rumores de que eles estão fazendo um remake de GOW 1 forem verdadeiros, eu aceito se eles mantiverem a mesma qualidade dessa DLC.
Besides the nostalgia, the Young Kratos skin gives all of us a chance to appreciate the subtle expressions Christopher Judge made that were hidden underneath the beard.
And now, imagine if every cutscene with Faye wuold have younger Kratos with his skin getting less pale with every dream showing every character change. Even thou this looks epic to see young Kratos, especially in rage, somehow it doesn't fit that nicely. But thanks for this video
Man the expression on Kratos' face after Atreus stopped him from touching the light of Alfheim. And Atreus watches his father's face the entire time, his heart breaking as he sees the comforting, stoic facade Kratos normally held falter under the weight of a grief Atreus knows too well. Edit: having watched most of this video, I realized that Kratos is visibly depressed the entire game but his sadness is covered by the beard.
Yeah after this and the Valhalla dlc. I can confirm I really want a remake of the greek saga, heck just the first game. Fighting ares in 4k is about to be one of the best moments in history of gaming😭😭 we need a remake of the og
The young Kratos skin is the best thing in this game. That greek goatee, outfit etc really tells you he is a stranger in the nordic lands. This is more lore friendly to me.
the only reason to have the young kratos skin on is to see more facial expressions from kratos. and the more intimate moments in the game definitely made it more heartwarming.
I like this design more, than default skin for Kratos. Maybe beard is cool, but lack of ashes and pants makes it not so good, atleast after seeing young Kratos skin
How can I use the skin from the very beginning?? I've tried everything but I always begin with old Kratos and I can't change appareance until I have to look for Atreus
Para el que entienda español. Muchos hablan de lo raro que se ve el Kratos joven con el cuerpo con estas proporciones. Pero en realidad en el God of war 1 y 2 él se veía exactamente así, Lo que pasa que en la tercera entrega aumentaron la musculatura de Kratos haciéndolo Ultra mamado.
while i know others have their preference of having Kratos rock his old look, i kinda have to say...its unsetting. Don't get me wrong, it's pretty bad ass to feel like if he had this look in the previous game? It'd fit right in, show that he has started to age but in this game? him with a full beard was more fitting, showed he has aged and became more....seasoned and wiser since his time in the Greek era. I say he shoulda have this for the 4th god of war game rather than this one.
If I was a time traveler I’d go back to about a month after the release of god of war 3 And break everyone’s world view by saying “The next installments in the series will be based on Norse mythology, and Kratos doesn’t get to kill Thor, Loki, or Odin. “
Lol I don’t know how God muscle building works but it kind of makes sense to me. He’s in a cold environment probably eat some more didn’t do as much running and military style, cardio exercise mostly just heavy lifting develop more of a power builder physique, his shoulders look about the same to me. His waist is a sticker.
@@D_Dastardly1 Ragnarok Kratos and his younger version have almost the same physique. The real difference is that in the Nordic games, Kratos has his toga raised very high, above his navel, while in the classic games it was lower, showing more of his pectorals.
He’s supposed to be paint white. The ashes on him are permanent and shouldn’t come off. His tattoo should be a bit longer on his face and his tattoos should’ve stayed paint red
Seeing young kratos smile is weirdly heartwarming
It is! Knowing how much he has been through, he needs to be happy.
The facial expressions are so great to see without the full beard. They add another level to Kratos’ reactions to things.
The worst times to be Atreus

it's so weird seeing young Kratos with realistic body proportions

Hot damn. I did not notice that. Great attention to detail you have.
7:06 Classic Angry Kratos.
He got Zeus flashbacks when she screamed his name, the facial features muscle-memoried into that scowl.
I swear I can imagine him looking at mountain Olympus that way in a remake
No one's talking about 7:10:36

I just like seeing the younger Kratos with Faye. It’s good to see him happy 🥺
I think that was the point
Totally agree
I like the young kratos look more tbh. Really pushes the "I'm not from here" part of the narrative.
I fully agree
Yeah the beard alone makes him blend in really well with all the norse gods
oh the very logic i was waiting.. 😊 I like it too!!

The thing he didn't achieve before was finally acheieved in far lands
6:41:01 You can hear the TC Carson grunt
Ohhh yeah !!!!!
True
I've noticed that Carson and judge's voices aren't that different

Young kratos with the fur cloak = perfection
Just realized the prophecy shows Tyr leading the armies at Ragnarok, because Odin is disguised as Tyr. That's how nuanced the prophecy is.
I always thought of it as the prophecy said that a god of war leaded the charge against ragnarok.
Thor: Don't you know what I've done!?
Kratos: Yes - I've done worse. Get better.
47:38 He should’ve known that just by one look😂
Young Kratos is perfect for flashbacks, Old Kratos works for the story now
4:16:35 HIS LIPS 😥, He was about to cry
Besides the nostalgia, the Young Kratos skin gives all of us a chance to appreciate the subtle expressions Christopher Judge made that were hidden underneath the beard.
When u added the funeral at the end I love the video saddest but best ending in the game
without the beard, you can really see how much Atreus looks like him lol
just watched the whole thing without playing the game
felt like a movie, and it was amazing
Ben-Gun shout out to you for making this video bro, thanks👍
Thank you buddy. Took forever to replay the game again 😆
It's exactly what I was looking for 2:33:30
Oh my days… he actually looks scary when Atreus asks to show him something and he says “TRUST?”
I like how everyone thought bearded Kratos is old looking but when he has no beard, he looks exactly like young Kratos
They should have TC Carson voice this portion of the game with young Kratos
Welp, nostalgia bone has been hit. Good job GOWR
9:04 this part uffff🥵😮💨
It s a smile from his heart, for real
Kratos is the goooooat 🐐
He’s the goooooaTEE! XD
now i see why people say this game is a movie
pause at 4:52:44 you wont regret it
Man, I didn't realize how much of the character acting was diluted by the beard. That first scene hits way way harder without it.
Notice beard Kratos has most of Lysandra and Calliope's ashes off his body
And now, imagine if every cutscene with Faye wuold have younger Kratos with his skin getting less pale with every dream showing every character change. Even thou this looks epic to see young Kratos, especially in rage, somehow it doesn't fit that nicely. But thanks for this video
Now it looks like Atrey is not a son of Kratos, but a brother. 😂
6:40:14 why did thor said let's go
Man the expression on Kratos' face after Atreus stopped him from touching the light of Alfheim. And Atreus watches his father's face the entire time, his heart breaking as he sees the comforting, stoic facade Kratos normally held falter under the weight of a grief Atreus knows too well.

23:49 No!
he looks alot like his god of war 1 and 2 cutscene model, i love it
kratos eating is so weird but amazing in the same time
Yeah after this and the Valhalla dlc. I can confirm I really want a remake of the greek saga, heck just the first game. Fighting ares in 4k is about to be one of the best moments in history of gaming😭😭 we need a remake of the og

The beard really took a lot out of the facial expressions in this game, hopefully by next game he'll have it shortened or braided or something xD
To me he always seems much colder without the beard during fimblewinter.
young kratos feels like he gonna hit any second now kinda vibe
the only reason to have the young kratos skin on is to see more facial expressions from kratos. and the more intimate moments in the game definitely made it more heartwarming.
As much as it's neat to see his expressions i miss the beard
4:52:05
I like using this skin because you can really see all of Christopher Judge's emoting as Kratos a lot better then with a big manly beard
The Norse gods were lucky that Kratos was not the same as he was in GOW 3. They would all be dead
That thumbnail makes me think of "i can fix you" meme thing
I suppose seeing young Kratos in dream sequences is more reasonable
@@berksafak exactly, was better if it was on the base game like that, just in dream sequences
@@Wasaluc but they decided him to use in Valhalla DLC which is completely understandable. It is still the best game.
@@berksafak yep, the goat
3:30:40 thor just spawning behind Odin is funny 🤣🤣
I was kinda hoping kratos would get rid of the beard before blowing the horn to start ragnarok... glad they added this skin in the game

Still upset Thor got killed off. Him becoming an ally with Kratos would’ve been a deadly combo

MAY GOD BLESS YOU

2nd Boy= Atreaus
Should have kept his look like this he looks better and more realistic

Does anyone have any tips to defeat the last tyr fight? I want this skin so damn bad but tyr is such a pain
