    About Video Game Sophistry:
    Video Game Sophistry is an opportunity to celebrate the creators and the artistry found in Video Games. I believe that Games are the most effective medium from experiencing another world, and another way to live. Expect to see a series of videos showcasing the narratives hidden in every game, interviews with game developers, along with our bench mark weekly podcast, Dialogue Wheel.
    Andy Borkowski started this program nearly 10 years ago and, in that time, it has changed from a simple UA-cam show, to a radio show, a tv show and now once again a UA-cam destination. Welcome to VGS.

      It could also mean that Atreus does not give a fuck about who Kratos was but who is he now.
      The main underlying point of the story is for Kratos to accept his past and move on, which he had trouble doing for most of the game.

      3 million on the first 3 days. Meaning that it would be 74,000 each day thereafter. It sold in April 20 and the month that followed was till June so if we go after that, I believe there are 120 days meaning that the game would sell 8.8 million thereafter which is too big so we halve the number as sales would plummet anyway.
      The resulting number is perhaps 10 million units, which doesn’t sound wrong.

    As the sun rises from the sky, as the sun rises over the mountain, over the corpses of giants, Atreus retrieves his hands from the pouch, filled with the ashes of his beloved mother as Kratos retrieves his hands from the pouch, filled with the ashes of his beloved wife. Both open their hands and let the wind blow the ashes to the sky. The ashes turned into golden dust as the wind blow. As the wind blow, Faye awake from her short slumber. She look into the sky as she knew that she was flowing. Confused, she turn to see the earth below her. As she felt the sun kissed her face, her eyes were filled with tears. Below on the earth, her people stood. The old, the young, the men, the women, the children. All was here. All eyes were at her. The giants immediately ran towards her, arms open wide, tears blinded them as they cried her name. Filled with so much joy, Faye throw her arms out to them, calling out in return. She fall into the arms of her people. Into the arms of her family. All embrace into the warmth of each other's arms. Never to be separated ever again. Confusion fell on Faye again. If she was here then.... Gasped, she turn to see her husband and son from the great distance, high on the great mountain. She cried. They done it. They brought her home. Tears blind her eyes more. As great happiness run through her, great sorrow fill her heart. She will never see them again. _"I love you, mom."_ Faye gasp as she heard her son's voice. _"Goodbye, Faye."_ A sad voice of her husband with his eyes on the verge with tears. The father and son turn from the sun and disappear into the mountain. Faye smiled. _"I love you, Atreus. Watch over your father for me. Take good care of our boy, Kratos. I'll miss you forever. I love you, my son...... My husband...... Goodbye....."_ She spoke, wiping away the tears. She turn and follow her people as the walk towards the sun. They soon vanish into golden dust as the wind blow to the sky. Vanish from the realm of the living. The last thing Faye have done on the realm of the living was stare back to the mountain where her son and husband stood, smiling as she fade away with her people from the earth where her son and husband walk on. Vanish to their home. Vanish to their heaven.

      A bit late but just a thought going through my head after reading this comment, what if Kratos is Ragnarok itself? After rewatching God of War 3 and seeing what Kratos did after his quest for revenge ended with the death of Zeus I couldn't help but to think that he could do the same in the Norse nine realms. Think of it what happened when he killed a god, when he killed Poseidon the lands were flooded, when he killed Helios the sun has disappeared, when he killed Hermes sickness as well as pest befell the world. Every kill of a god had a negative effect on the world, it created a scene we would see as the end of the world. But this is just a thought going through my head that I needed to get rid of. Feel free to give me your thought on this.

The gods are on OUR side, OUR realm is the one everybody fights over, OUR victories are the ones that matter. But we never give a second thought to the "other." The Greek Titans, the Norse Jötnar, they're the outsiders we demonise and distance ourselves from because we accept the gods to be the heroes, even when they commit terrible crimes. Perhaps the key to becoming better, like Kratos, is to open ourselves and move beyond the failures of our past.
