Check out some of Kratos' Greece Stories in Ragnarok edited together with visuals from the original God of War games! ua-cam.com/video/zt0gBaIFBHc/v-deo.html
The destruction of Sindri was the single most painful part of this game for me. Seeing him still dirty days after Ragnarok was what hit me the hardest, seeing the most fastidious character inundated with his own brother’s blood cut deep
it's especially horrible when you realize the reason he wanted to be so clean is because of how sensitive his skin became after his experience in pulling Broks soul back.
i think something that makes it all worse, haunting sindri even more, is brok’s soul can never truly rest. he died by odin with not his complete soul, missing that part that directs the soul to hel, vallahalla, or light of alfiem. so brok is just forever lost and sindri cant do anything about it
Brok would be ashamed of Sindri using his death as an excuse to sever his ties with everyone. The sad thing is, I think Sindri knows, but he doesn't care anymore.
Not only that but Sindri is probably feeling self guilt because he knows that he’s the reason Brok has no afterlife and if he didn’t save him from the lake of souls he wouldn’t feel this pain and Odin wouldn’t have been able to kill brok
Thats what I luv about Kratos and Mimir's relationship. At first Kratos just kept calling him head but over the 3 year timeskip its shown they have become friends since then and calls Mimir by his name now as Mimir calls Kratos by his name. Mimir is like the voice of reason by Kratos side helping him make the right decisions.
We put together all the main side quest missions we didn't do in the main game movie, postgame specific quests and events into one video. There's so much side content in the side quests that it deserves its own story game movie video. This is a companion piece to the main game movie. There is no overarching narrative here like the main game, just exploring the world and dealing with the aftermath of Ragnarok. We love God Of War Ragnarok and believe it will get game of the year. Let us know if you enjoy this type of video, this is the first time we've ever tried a postgame "game movie." If you like it, we can start doing it for future open world games where a "postgame game movie" makes sense. We hope you enjoy the video!
@@Arvynm Tough to say since we didn't do all of them before we triggered the ending of the main quest. Postgame-only quests aren't too many, there's the Tyr stuff and healing the land stuff. Plus interactions that only happens post-game, like seeing what characters are doing after Ragnarok. But most of them are just sidequest that could have done before the game ended.
This should definitely get game of the year, Elden ring is the only game that's close to this, and the hot mess of a plot it has compared to this is the deciding factor.
Crying over a video game character, imagie being this much of a waste. Is your life this, gaming? Nothing more, have you never achieved anything outside gaming? Do you think anyone has ever been proud of you? Think more about your life you get 80 years on this planet. how much have you used and how much do you have left?
@@bunyiphunter7280 I agree with one caveat. If a person sees something in any media form & something in their life to family or friends has happened that reminds of that occurrence in the game I would say they may have justification, this can happen with some of the strangest times & is due to simply being reminded. However anyone simply crying because of a fictional character in a video game with no real life connection really need to get a grip because a real life event is going to be rough.
Be aware if you like a character and a game starts to reveal backstory and include him a lot more all of a sudden, that's what you'd call a 'death flag'. The writers want to get all the content out for the viewer to get attached before they kill the character off. Writers were like you know Brok has a girl dwarf friend that he goes way back. They make a good pair right? He's so excited to see the Lady aint he. Oh no. Such a sad backstory preventing him from being seen by her. Oh. He's being so useful while also being kind of funny. Guess what. He's dead. Huh? Players liked him? Oh noooo ha haha hahaha.
@@hireikana18 i think he is just grieving. If you notice during Odin's defeat, Sindri doesn't appear until after everyone made their decision of whether to spare him. He was probably watching the entire time so if he didn't outright steal the opportunity to kill Odin from Freya means he isn't completely blinded by grief
@@johnychrist2559 also, freya already did the whole "friend turned enemy due to loss" thing. Closing your heart off to your friends completely is a better way to do grief without coming off as a redundant character type in the game. I personally think he may never return. But he won't take actions against anyone. His target is dead, now he wants to suffer in solitude for something he caused.
@@sighdeathwatson3909 it would be an interesting twist i think if Freya was able to forgive Kratos for being the one to literally snap her sons neck, but Sindri isn't able to forgive Altrues or Kratos for "allowing" his brother to die and is consumed by rage
I like how you can tell that ever since, whoever was playing to get all this footage, discovered the spear it has been their favorite weapon and they use it almost exclusively in every fight.
It shows him being better, since the first time Freya met his wolves kratos simply barked orders at the wolves and Freya comments that they are matted and need to be brushed, and he just says, "they're wolves." But now he realizes the relationship that atreyus has with the wolves, since Loki is now gone on his new path and left, he promised to keep Atreyus in his heart while Loki goes. That means tending and bonding with the wolves he cares for in place of his son 😭💜
I just find it all a little disappointing that he couldn't have appeared much sooner, instead of AFTER the main story was already done. all seems like a bit of a letdown to me, not seeing the REAL tyr get to show his stuff when the time came.
I can't thank GLP enough. It felt that this game is eternal, and we can't just stop at the end of the main game only. We have to explore so much.... Thank you, once again GLP. This game has been another legendary addition to the repertoire of Kratos' and his family's legacy in the world of gaming, creativity and history.
That would be impossible. As Mimir said, once a soul's "Direction" is severed from its corporeal form, it is no longer able to go back to the Lake of Souls. When Sindri retrieved Brok's soul long ago, the "Direction" of Brok's soul was severed, thus making it impossible for his soul to go into the Lake of Souls. And since it cannot go back to the lake, it had nowhere to go except disappear entirely, ceasing to exist.
It's amazing how Vanaheim's crater's section has so much dialogue. I did the entire segment and all available quests with Atreus, and so much of the dialogue is different. What a great game. Thank you very much for making this postgame movie, I never would have gotten around to doing all this stuff.
plus the line diversity actually adds something to the world or character the wishing well with Freya: The well is thanking you, the crystals are a blight and it will reward you for throwing them into the pond the wishing well with atreus: Hey the pond reacted when a crystal fell in it, maybe you should throw another one in or lines like kratos talking about how he lost all his abilities from the main trilogy Freya: Magic is tied to the earth, when your homeland died, the magic died with it Atreus: Freya said 'Magic is tied to the earth' maybe when your homeland died, the magic died with it
@@experiencemaster1743 or even better: Freya after killing the dragons: "the realm is safer because it no longer has an unbalanced ecosystem" Atreus after killing the dragons: "I can literally hear the animals' relief and thankfulness" Such a fucking cool game
Oh god, nobody was waiting for this video more than I, thank you glp for always listening to your fans. This game is amazing, knowing more lore about is definitely rewarding. And yes please do more post game movies for future games where it makes sense. Thank you!
Nah, not in this one since we included it in the main movie, didn't want to double up. But it's something to consider in the future. Maybe the post game movie should just feature all side missions in general? Not sure yet, but fun to think of the possibilities!
Don't know if someone else noticed but at 2:05 they talk about the world snake and I've just realised holy shit it was the snake Atreus put the giant soul in😧
Yup if you think about it , in the previous video of GLP in the mainstory, Thor sends him back on time, so that's the Jor on the first game... and now this snake its the main one, and the cycle goes on and on.
@@Dizzy_420 nah it's just once, atreus put the soul to snake > snake grows and join ragnarok > get sent back by thor > keep growing and not joining ragnarok the 2nd time, hence why there's still sign of him sleeping in the lake
@@Dizzy_420 you've got it backwards, the one fighting thor is the younger Jormy. If you look closely during their fight, you can see it looks a little different
@@blackkimchics which makes no sense. He tells him to find the place as if atreus wouldn't find it without the snake telling him about it, thus creating the snake. This game really fell short of the previous one 😔
25:42 This. This right here is the funniest fuckin' interaction I've seen. I can just imagine Kratos bein' all flustered n' shit, and it's funny as hell to me.
47:18 Fun fact: Mimir talks about Kratos fighting in Mortal Kombat 9 since he was an extra DLC character. Also another fun fact (theory): Kratos’ transformation from a bloodthirsty Spartan to a calmer figure can be attributed to his participation in Mortal Kombat 9. According to MK9, Raiden and Fujin took Kratos to the Land of Saido much like Johnny Cage did. There, Kratos was able to learn how to manage his anger, rage, and aggression, leading to the version of Kratos we see now. Ultimately, the credit goes to Raiden and Fujin for their part in Kratos’ transformation.
Hraesvelg telling kratos and mimir all but "f*** off" is a funny interaction lol. you could just feel her saying "YOUR son helped open them! The audacity to think you're getting a reward!" lmao
I can't imagine Freya not wanting Atreus to have the sword. It was her brother's sword but he also knew it's name and spoke to it I imagine it's quite rare for that to happen.
Ha, Freyr’s story of how he ended up in the Lake of Souls. “He had fortified himself with a lot of Venir herbs. When he wandered, he *wandered*.” So his tale of uniting the Elves sounds like a tale from “The Hangover”. A man gets so high, he achieves world peace and becomes a god in the eyes of others.
15:40 So holy shit i finally figured it out. So the giant snake atreus put the gaint soul into after they fought Angrboda's grandmother actually grew to be Jörmungandr
3:03 this scene hurt my soul. Kratos never really had anyone like Brok he could truly call a friend or brother(other than his own). Someone he trusted without question. Someone , though unorthodox , that actually had his back. Brok and Mimir , though flawed , are true friends/brothers to Kratos. That is why their counsel matters so much to him.
I just found one where if you go to Freyr’s camp and talk to Birgir after you went to Freya’s house, you can go back to the house and find Birgir inside. There’s even dialogue where Freya talks to Kratos about finding someone who would look after her turtle permanently
I was pleading for the video of the playthrough to not end, even in its last minute. I am glad I found this one to give me nearly 3 hours more of God of War.
One thing that saddened me about this game was its lack of dragons.. I mean sure there are a ton of lesser dragons but after the fight with the deformed one in 2018 and seeing fafnir and baldurs dragon I REALLY wanted to see how a full power dragon would be
God of war ragnarok is without a doubt 1 of the best games I have ever played and I've played a lot of games. Only one thing I wish I could see and that's peace for Sindri I mean if that story had to go that way I wish their was friendship restored between Sindri & our heroes
This game wouldn't put something so suspiciously like a figure in the background of a cinematic scene like that, and it would totally make sense! Atreus knows Sindri hasn't forgiven him yet, so I can definitely see him making the decision that respects both him and Brok. In fact, I thought it was out of character for him to not be at the funeral.
Completely understand brotha, it's been very frustrating for us as well. Trying another reupload right now and waiting a day or 2 to see if it processes. If it does we'll post that one and privatize the other. If it doesn't work, honestly just have to take the L on this one and use it as a learning lesson for ourselves, that over 24 hours might just be too much for UA-cam to handle consistently
You know i was feeling a little frustrated that this channel didnt complete a lot of these side quests with atreus. But i came to understand that of course its much easier to record the entire main story without side quests, and hearing freya's input on some of the quests instead of atreus is actually pretty intriguing. Epsecially when it involves Vanaheim
Yup. In Norse mythology, Loki is the father of the World Serpent, so they managed to include that here too, with Atreus being the one to "give him life".
@@jor4114 I appreciate they didn't do Loki weird about the shape shifting thing in this.. cause you probably know in mythology how a shape shifting god goes about having a child with a snake... ☠️☠️ Same goes for a wolf.. and a horse(slepnir)... Loki in real mythos got some problems ☠️
With Mimir's 3 doors riddle, my answer was the door with the lions but for a different reason. If those lions were still alive and you had food with you, if you feed them, they would most likely become nice to you, for giving a meal to a starving animal is an effective way to gain a bond, or subservience if you wish it.
In real world that actually wouldn't happen because well the lion's would simply kill you... But you're talking about the games so yeah like the wolves they too would be appreciated.
When Kratos was mourning Brock; that made me cry. If Brok and Thor would have survived I truly believe that they would all be lifelong friends. Thor respected Kratos the second he fucked around with him when he was the All-Fucker's lap dog and knew he could kill him at any time, which answers why he treated Atreus with respect. Maybe he was secretly regretting not being more restrained with his sons like Kratos. Magi and Modi were little shits though.
The fact that you didn't try to light the 2 embrasures on the dam brings me great pain. One day I will have to get this game and play it just to light them.
Idk which was a more painful video game death, cayde-6 or brok, they both were a cheerful and upbringing part of both those games, we can replay the games but they both will be missed and remembered forever
I wish they'd had told Sinmara of Surtur. It may have given her some peace, that Kratos would tell her that Surtur did what he did purely out of love for her. He was truly good, a good person, a good character. I heard there was a nixed side quest that had you searching for Surtur and Sinmara's hearts after Ragnarok. If their hearts survived, they could've been revived so they could've finally been together in peace. Aah, but maybe I'm just an old romantic.
Thanks for the video it's cool they added story after the main campaign. Brok will be back or at least they already set him up to come back. Sindri literally tells you at one point that he couldn't get all of Broks soul from the light well. So that means a piece of his soul is still in there from when he previously tried to bring him back from the dead but we'll see if they use that loophole to bring him back again. I imagine it would make for a sick quest having Kratos defy death again.

The devs should've made Atreus be there. Hate that he's not there, made hime really look like a dick

@@Hugo_Tate I mean dude lost the only family he had, cut him some slack
Brok would be ashamed of Sindri using his death as an excuse to sever his ties with everyone. The sad thing is, I think Sindri knows, but he doesn't care anymore.
Emotional pain hurts our judgement. Too much and we turn insane.
Not only that but Sindri is probably feeling self guilt because he knows that he’s the reason Brok has no afterlife and if he didn’t save him from the lake of souls he wouldn’t feel this pain and Odin wouldn’t have been able to kill brok
@@Eternal_Ewok Sindri needs a Valhalla therapy session with Týr
@@Eternal_EwokTbf, if he didn’t save Brok, he wouldn’t have made the weapon that could hurt Heimdall and reveal Odin as Tyr.
I imagine that, like Freya, Sindri probably would in time, learn to forgive the others. Or at least himself.
When the game is so good that even the content outside the main story is so entertaining to watch you know it's a freaking masterpiece of a legend
true

Mimir is like the voice of reason by Kratos side helping him make the right decisions.
He even called Mimir brother once when they were setting that whale free.
Kratos found a friend to confide in, and Mimir found a god worthy of his counsel.
And someone to coparent his impulsive teenage son. Pretty sure Atreus says he's like a second father to him
@@cyrusthegreat3299 he also said it when you kill the berserker king, i love this series
Not just Mimir, but Kratos started calling his companions by their name. He used to call Atreus 'Boy', or Brok and Sindri 'Dwarves' in the first game

Ha, Freyr’s story of how he ended up in the Lake of Souls.
“He had fortified himself with a lot of Venir herbs. When he wandered, he *wandered*.”
So his tale of uniting the Elves sounds like a tale from “The Hangover”. A man gets so high, he achieves world peace and becomes a god in the eyes of others.
I don't remember that part in The Hangover
Our favorite gal: ‘He’s got it in him, he just needs some discipline to bring it out’
Kratos: *chuckles* ‘I like you.’
God of War Ragnarok is so good, they added a day 1 dlc at no extra cost built in for after the main story.
Wow what a beautiful soundtrack this game has.. hits you in the soul.. 6:00 😭
Almost 3 hours more of coverage. Thank you.
15:40 So holy shit i finally figured it out. So the giant snake atreus put the gaint soul into after they fought Angrboda's grandmother actually grew to be Jörmungandr
3:03 this scene hurt my soul. Kratos never really had anyone like Brok he could truly call a friend or brother(other than his own). Someone he trusted without question. Someone , though unorthodox , that actually had his back. Brok and Mimir , though flawed , are true friends/brothers to Kratos. That is why their counsel matters so much to him.
Literally was hoping you guys would show some gameplay after the storyline. Thank you so much for this!
32:43 some advanced berserker battle tactics right there.
37:20 So it is also Greek tradition that the recent two GOW games have been "filmed" in one-takes.
I just found one where if you go to Freyr’s camp and talk to Birgir after you went to Freya’s house, you can go back to the house and find Birgir inside. There’s even dialogue where Freya talks to Kratos about finding someone who would look after her turtle permanently
I was pleading for the video of the playthrough to not end, even in its last minute. I am glad I found this one to give me nearly 3 hours more of God of War.
21:25 finally Kratos Laughs ❤❤❤
Ratatoskr has got to be one of my favorite characters
Raising a Guinness to you, GLP! Thanks so much!
17:03 this where Hela supposedly stepped in to replace Hraesvelgr
21:30 A certified Kratos chuckle
One thing that saddened me about this game was its lack of dragons.. I mean sure there are a ton of lesser dragons but after the fight with the deformed one in 2018 and seeing fafnir and baldurs dragon I REALLY wanted to see how a full power dragon would be
God of war ragnarok is without a doubt 1 of the best games I have ever played and I've played a lot of games. Only one thing I wish I could see and that's peace for Sindri I mean if that story had to go that way I wish their was friendship restored between Sindri & our heroes
Give it time, the wounds are still fresh.
Am I crazy, but at 6:17 on our right top cliff (Sindri's left), could that be Atreus sitting and watching from afar?
I think It's a plant
This game wouldn't put something so suspiciously like a figure in the background of a cinematic scene like that, and it would totally make sense! Atreus knows Sindri hasn't forgiven him yet, so I can definitely see him making the decision that respects both him and Brok. In fact, I thought it was out of character for him to not be at the funeral.
11:32 that has to be the most normal Kratos has ever sounded. It's so damn weird....
great choice ending the game on the ravens being freed
We finally get chuckles out of Kratos. It's a good time to be alive.
There's no after life for Brock.
Me if I were Brock: Whew... What a relief!
Hey do you guys have any idea when your walkthrough of the game will process to HD? Not complaining or anything just curious.
Completely understand brotha, it's been very frustrating for us as well. Trying another reupload right now and waiting a day or 2 to see if it processes. If it does we'll post that one and privatize the other. If it doesn't work, honestly just have to take the L on this one and use it as a learning lesson for ourselves, that over 24 hours might just be too much for UA-cam to handle consistently
@@glp Ohh... Well I hope the new one does! And yeah totally understandable if that's too long for a process to HD.. Thanks for responding.
@Pickle Rick Nah I'm pretty relaxed & don't mind waiting which is why I said I wasn't complaining. Thanks for the info tho.
Im glad im not the only one that has to obsessively detonate the draupnir spear after combat
Thank you so much for uploading this, lore and stuff like this are my favorite parts.
Still so heartbroken about Sindri :(
You know i was feeling a little frustrated that this channel didnt complete a lot of these side quests with atreus. But i came to understand that of course its much easier to record the entire main story without side quests, and hearing freya's input on some of the quests instead of atreus is actually pretty intriguing. Epsecially when it involves Vanaheim
I am so happy that Kratos has a little community of friends now. His days as a loner are finally over!
The whole story was brilliant cant wait for next game
Kratos calling Mimir Brother was powerful.
Agreed.
Thought I cried enough during this game, but Sindri at Brok’s funeral…oof 🥺🥺🥺
What if the Next God of War game is Sindri raging war on Gods and Giants…
What if...indeed!
When Mimir finally figured out Broks riddle...that hit deep.
I watch movies via "new rockstars" and I play video games via "gamer's little playground"
Thank you for this I lose all inspiration to do this stuff after the story is over.
about Medusa strats, Kratos shoulda said he didn't have a mirror
So you meant to say that the snake that atreus gave a soul to in ironwood was the world serpent
Yup. In Norse mythology, Loki is the father of the World Serpent, so they managed to include that here too, with Atreus being the one to "give him life".
@@jor4114 yup same goes for Fenrir too... Just one missing and that's hel
@@jor4114 I appreciate they didn't do Loki weird about the shape shifting thing in this.. cause you probably know in mythology how a shape shifting god goes about having a child with a snake... ☠️☠️ Same goes for a wolf.. and a horse(slepnir)... Loki in real mythos got some problems ☠️
With Mimir's 3 doors riddle, my answer was the door with the lions but for a different reason.
If those lions were still alive and you had food with you, if you feed them, they would most likely become nice to you, for giving a meal to a starving animal is an effective way to gain a bond, or subservience if you wish it.
In real world that actually wouldn't happen because well the lion's would simply kill you... But you're talking about the games so yeah like the wolves they too would be appreciated.
broks funeral is the real ending of the game
and i think most would agree
When Kratos was mourning Brock; that made me cry. If Brok and Thor would have survived I truly believe that they would all be lifelong friends.
Thor respected Kratos the second he fucked around with him when he was the All-Fucker's lap dog and knew he could kill him at any time, which answers why he treated Atreus with respect. Maybe he was secretly regretting not being more restrained with his sons like Kratos.
Magi and Modi were little shits though.
Kratos being surprised by Faye being mad at thor is wild when Kratos was so mad he escaped hell 3 times then destroyed all of greece.
The fact that you didn't try to light the 2 embrasures on the dam brings me great pain. One day I will have to get this game and play it just to light them.
22:01 Can anyone translate what that Einherjar soldier said in the subtitles below??
Einherjar I will not rest until Asgard's enemies are broken to ashes!
Kratos is a beefcake, officially confirmed by dwarf lady 😂
Why im crying when Freya cuts Gna
Imagine the brute power in Thor's hit sent a world serpent *BACK IN TIME* say what you want but that's an POWERFUL HIT
Idk which was a more painful video game death, cayde-6 or brok, they both were a cheerful and upbringing part of both those games, we can replay the games but they both will be missed and remembered forever
Man this game is Sooooo good. I literally ended it yesterday and I’ve been feeling so empty. Nothing will come close 😢😢😢
Dude. Exact same here. This game made me tear up multiple times. I’m not ready to say goodbye, but there is nothing left to do 😢
When brock died and sindri died inside, I did too.
That's when you know you've made a great game, god damn it hurts.
18:58 and what is the queen mother's head (of Edo, Nigeria) doing in Greek mythology
Thank God no be only me see am...😂
Maybe Kratos is coming to Nigeria next.
Kratos vs. Oduduwa would be legit lmao.
i just completed the 15 hour vid and now theres even more i mean truly this game is the gift that keeps on giving
Amazing thank you! 1:22:30
I wish they'd had told Sinmara of Surtur. It may have given her some peace, that Kratos would tell her that Surtur did what he did purely out of love for her. He was truly good, a good person, a good character. I heard there was a nixed side quest that had you searching for Surtur and Sinmara's hearts after Ragnarok. If their hearts survived, they could've been revived so they could've finally been together in peace. Aah, but maybe I'm just an old romantic.
1:16:13 Uncle Mimir moments
The sculpture at 19:00 looks like the sculpture of Queen Idia of the Benin kingdom.
i love doing as many quests with freya as possible. i only do the quests with the boy i cant avoid.
Thanks for the video it's cool they added story after the main campaign. Brok will be back or at least they already set him up to come back. Sindri literally tells you at one point that he couldn't get all of Broks soul from the light well. So that means a piece of his soul is still in there from when he previously tried to bring him back from the dead but we'll see if they use that loophole to bring him back again. I imagine it would make for a sick quest having Kratos defy death again.
47:13 Wait was a reference to PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale?
4:32 start of Brok's funeral
Fantastic 😍
Well the journal scene makes much scene in the Valhalla DLC, he's writing down his journey for his boy while he's off to his own adventure
thanks
