Ironically it was true because after the GoW 3, he tried to get rid of them in many various ways but they suddenly come back to him since they bound to him
I liked that in this every time Freya started to talk about something bad that happened to her, kratos always had an answer like "yeah that's rough, did I ever tell you how my wife and daughter died?" lol
I liked that he used his experiences to empathize. Especially given his losses were ones of his own making but one's he uses to find his resolve and be better now, even for others.
It’s actually poetic that the blades come back, esp considering that at the end of GOW1 on ps2. Athena told Kratos “Although his sins were forgiven, no one should ever forget the things he’s done” And I believe Kratos keeps the blades as a reminder that he MUST be better than the god he once was
@@attackhelicopter5154 They won’t. Kratos had to go back to his house & take them back. Because he seems to have found a way for them not to appear on his back anymore
@@Alternative_Alba he didn't mean it like mjollnir and leviathan axe when kratos said they came back. He meant that if he has to throw them away it would still reappear in his doorstep one way or another.
@@Alternative_Alba that's because he kept them, if he had abandoned or threw them away, they'd return. it didn't came because he was keeping it where he lives
That's because he was confirmed from the comic book God of War fallen God, he threw them into the ocean then tried to get farther away as possible from his homeland, when he tries to find a spot to sleep when he wakes up the blades that appear out of know where
I understand how much hatred has when he says they came back, but it’s just so hilarious that it also sounds like he tried to ditch an animal and it found him again.🤣😂🤣😂
The reference on why the blades of Chaos comes back every time Kratos throws them away is because Athena and other foreign Gods are treating Kratos as their cosmic lab rat where they believe wherever he goes danger comes by the ones he would care about because his presence is always the sign of danger
I really like how much more mature Atreus is portrayed here. I half-expected him to be excited about the Blades of Chaos and their history but... We see a kid who's observed and care for his father enough to know that he'd rather part with them.
I can just imagine the blades of chaos as twin yanderes who never leave you. Like you sit them down somewhere and take a carrage to another kingdom miles away and they just show up in the form of two women who scold you for leaving them behind.
"Even hateful things have their uses." He's talking about himself. Even after everything that's happened since then, he can't forgive himself for what he did. Kratos needs a hug.
"ending of a vid" what does that even mean? Where was the dad joke? I know the video you're referring to of him telling dad jokes in the 2018 game but what does that have anything to do with this Short?
@@salbonpensiero1704 no offense but did you have a stroke and dont know what ending of a vid means. The joke was AT THE END where he said "besides i tried, they came back", it was clearly a joke and you can hear voice change when he said "besides".

Btw "not a laughing matter" what, should i feel sorry or sad for made up game character in a made up world and story about smth that didnt even exist in the real world, NO. And just to add cherry on top english aint my first language and you need to learn the difference between illeterate and aliterate cuz i know how to write propper but do i give a damn if someone will get offended if i do not i most certainly do not.
Those blades are destined to be with him until the end of time Of course my favorite best blades are ATHENAS BLADES and lets not forget Blades of Exile
@@bluestar_kun alot of people make this mistake, the blades of athena and the blades of chaos are 2 different sets of blades, the athena blades get turned into the exile blades, kratos gets the chaos blades ripped away by Ares at the end of GOW 1 and athena replaces them with her own (symbolizing how she now controls kratos basically) and he throws away the exile blades at the end of GOW 3 as they're not bound to him. In the comics between 3 and 4 it's shown the chaos blades follow him cuz they're bound to him. So therefore the blades in 4 and ragnarok are the original chaos blades from 1. Hope that clears up the confusion so many people in the community deal with, it can be a bit jarring lol
I used to think that after his Magic Weapons (Including ALL of the Weapons and Powers he gained in the Games from the beginning in Ascension till 3) broke, he basically absorbed their Magic Power into himself and once he rammed the Blade of Olympus and all of his GoW Power, he realeased 99% of ALL the Power and kept 1% of each, which then manifested in his Immortality, the Blades of Chaos just losz a lot of their Power as Greece was Gone, but Powered up with Norse Power
@@hoshiryu that's not a bad theory at all, it's probably confirmed somewhere but what I always think is that, excluding his magic, when he stabbed himself with the blade he both sent out Hope into Greece so it could heal while also absorbing his godly powers he drained into it at the beginning of 2. Although knowing how Kratos doesn't like himself bcuz of all that he's done I believe he didn't mean to absorb his powers and survive stabbing himself, it just happened lol
if you listen very close to a line at the end you can hear he was laughing his ass off even if the take made it in the game they probably did few hundred but decided to throw in the one where he laughed the least. btw if ppl dont know who ima talking about its the voice actor for kratos and he was doing quite a few dad jokes on sets so wouldnt be craziest thats happend
It’s funny how the guy pauses for cinematic effect sometimes when rowing the boat, but earlier he also casually crashes into a wooden barrel for the goods
I love the idea that these blades can never truly leave him. They’re the physical embodiment of his pain and anguish. Poor Kratos, he can’t seem to catch a break.
Nope. The Blades are cursed. No matter what Kratos does to get rid of them, they always come back to him in some way. After GOW 3, he literally threw them in the ocean in the middle of a storm, and after sailing thousands of miles away, there they were, washed up on the shore in front of him. lol.
U do know the Greek gods can come back to life there's this fruit know as Ambrosia, if someone used them on a dead god's body they would come back alive, in the comic ares followers tried to bring Ares back but kratos killed them all, if that fruit still exists in Greece someone should just grab a few and bring back all the gods and then they should team up and come to norse land to kill kratos and the remaining Norse god's that teamed up with kratos should fight all the gods. Would be a epic game
@@Alternative_Alba it's the fruit of the gods, it wouldn't rot, the Novel of god of war which follows the comics is actually cannon kratos finds a cult that worship ares and they find the fruit but kratos destroys it all and the cult, such a shame in my opinion :( would have been awesome seeing the Greek gods fight the Norse
I always like to think of the blades never leaving him as the last "fuck you" to Kratos by Ares, that even if he dies, he will forever have to live with the weapons that created his suffering in the first place. Also metaphorically too, because he tried to literally escape his past by going somewhere else and yet those sins and thoughts never went away and never will. But he found peace in knowing he can't undo what he did, but he can own it and accept it by moving forward anyway. Great series. Love this shit.
This was actually mentioned in the novelization of the 2018 game during Kratos' boat trip back home to obtain them before going to Helheim. It mentioned that he threw them into the seas after finally settling with Faye. But when he arrived home, the Blades returned before him. That's why the only thing he could do is hide them. I remember there was a comic where Athena told him that one day he will need the Blades again. And lo and behold, it was revealed that he would use them to save Atreus.
One thing to note about Kratos is that we know he hates the blades while he loves the Axe. The blades represent his past and what made him a monster that he is ashamed of. While the Axe is from his wife, whenever he puts it down or anything, he places it nicely and properly. But with the blades, we see him just drop them on the floor because of how much he loathes them. But at some point later on in the game, he actually places them properly like he does with Axe. It's like by that point, Kratos finally accepts the blades as something that's part of him. I believe you can see him place the blades properly when he goes in the tent just before you go to sleep on the day before Ragnarok.
blade of chaos is an image of death, wherever you try to avoid it, it will still come to you, and in every wars and battle there will always be "death"
It’s a subtle thing but in ragnarok in a section he threw the blades away carelessly but he was gentle with Faye’s axe. Show’s his hatred towards the blades
Okay this is so weird and niche for me notice but, I really like it when Kratos speaks beyond curt responses and the way he talks here; you can hear the effort he put into getting rid of those blades.

He tossed them like 5 times in the comics nice to see this reference come back around

Imagine two blades and chains dragging across the floor setting everything on fire.
It’s really that one parasitic friend that always comes back
They’re like herpes, with you til the end lol
It’s a subtle thing but in ragnarok in a section he threw the blades away carelessly but he was gentle with Faye’s axe. Show’s his hatred towards the blades
Blades of Chaos: I always COME BACK
The blades:”golden bat laugh”
**Kratos in battle**
**blades randomly appear and slash through the enemies**
Kratos : Stop stealing my aces
Kratos *tries to emplore wisdom* * also him* fuck it. They came back
I like how mimir teleports from kratos hip to Atreus.
I love boat talk
According to the comic
Those blades are Kratos nightmare
He can't get rid of it
He only can keep it and those blades will follow him until death
Them blades are the best example of thano's speech on endgame
Those blades have the curse of binding on them
The Blades of Chaos are still bound to his soul
Kratos casually obliterating ship wrecks with his son on the front of the boat...
I love the boat conversations.
Okay this is so weird and niche for me notice but, I really like it when Kratos speaks beyond curt responses and the way he talks here; you can hear the effort he put into getting rid of those blades.
That said, this is a plot hole on the writers part: if Kratos doesn't have access to his previous powers, why is the curse still on effect?
When an object becomes bound to someone there's no getting rid of it no matter how many times you throw it away it will always come back
So much shorts can be made of this game
