SQUADRON YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO The excitement was so real in this one... I really thought Kratos was gonna be this frail old man but NAW HE STILL GOT IT!
Frail? Oh boy you are NOT ready😅
Dude I’ve been so hyped for this series since your GoW 1 playthrough
You're going to love these next few games! Kratos development is unreal
LEEETTSSS GOOOO!!!
Bro, I’m so excited let’s do this. I hope you have a great time with this game.
Notice how kratos is walking towards the hut after fighting the stranger. Before he enters he fixes his posture, so that he doesn't look weak in front of atreus.
Your "Duke of Arrakis" joke is accurate, because in Dune the Atreides trace their lineage back to ancient Greece and Atreus is also a Greek name
I knew at least one person would appreciate it
Booooy... what a masterpiece is GOW 2018... just replaying this right now on a harder difficulty to share Mati's pain and awe...
We in this together boyyyy
Don't mind me, I'm here just to upvote the "boy" comment.
@@matiasgagorykard? Is that you?
@@TimothyGod togethaaaaa
@@matiasgago 🤣🤣🤣 we shall watch this series TOGETHAAAAA lmao
A lot of the story telling in this game is more subtle than in the others. For example: After BOY lights the candles and Kratos walks in, you can see how their relationship is just by the lighting. His mother being lit up well and Kratos being a hulking figure cloaked in shadow is a clear indicator of their relationship.
Wooow, that's deep
#Deep
Imposing and menacing.
That's a very good perspective
It's what I love about this game, lots symbolism or visual storytelling
I swear that The Stranger has to easily be my favourite non-soulsborne boss fight ever, what a great opener to the game.
I'm sure so many other people will let you know too, but FUN FACT: you can technically play through this entire game without the "camera" ever cutting, it's all in 1 continuous shot (obviously this is if you never pause, or open your inventory)
Fun fact Mati: the duology of the norse games are all shot in 1 shot, which means there will not be a single cut to black in between cutscenes to gameplay and vice versa.
Bro I did not pick up on this while playing but it explains the feelings and immersion so much DAMN
Not only there are no cuts to black, there are no camera cuts at all. The camera moves arround all the time in the "(no) cut scenes" showing allways the best shot, ending at shoulder 3rd person for us to continue controling Kratos. As you say, a very big one shot from the menu screen to the end. An Awesome technical work from Santa Monica!!!
Yeah bro just wait. This game is going to take you on a rollercoaster of emotions AND nostalgia. I'm so excited bro for you bro. May God bless you. @@matiasgago
"Find your way home. You are free."
Kratos said that to Deimos.
He did?!
The writing in these games just keeps getting better and better!
Hi Mati, love the video.
Here's some spoiler-free info for the game:
-The enemies are indeed tanky but it's because of the difficulty
-Remember the stun bar, wich you can fill faster by punching bare handed. A stuned enemy is basically done for, can be useful in some situations
-Sometimes you can use the environment as a weapon, by dropping stuff on enemies or knocking them off ledges for a fast kill
-Fun fact: The whole game is just one long scene. Apart from when you pause the game, there are no camera cuts at all.
I love the attention to detail here at 4:16
Kratos intentionally turning his back away so Atreus can't see what he's covering up and keeping hidden about his past is just true attention to detail. It just goes to show how much his son doesn't actually know, about his own father, and how Kratos intends to keep it that way.
Atreus's mother also taught him everything, like Kratos has avoided him until now. He's just been a big silent grumpy guy that has shared a house with him
It also makes us see how Atreus feels towards Kratos early game. To him Kratos was someone who was always giving him the back, who never cared to tell him anything.
This is what i love, someone who played the original trilogy first and then the two newest installments, Cant wait to continue waching you on this amazing journey Mati, and also BOY!!!!!
BOY! so glad we played the first 3 man everything just hits as I feel was intended
You said at the beginning that his blades are not on his arms. There is an easily missable part of the last cutscene in GOW 3, where upon Zeus's death, his chains fall off his arms since there is no one left to enforce his curse.
how is his skin still white ?
@@dinostylo7452 That curse is different. The curse of his blades came from his ties to the gods while his skin came from the curse of an oracle.
I noticed that while editing the GOW 3 finale totally missed it while playing lol
@@zanderbeasley5868 if i remember correctly in every game Kratos has different blades ..I think he just throw blades because he wanna kill Zeus bare hand
@@dinostylo7452 no the blades were magically attached, he couldnt get them off if he wanted to, they fell off because there was nothing left to bind them to him. yes the blades changed throughout the game but the chains were never removed
Mati in the future:
Do the dishes boy...
It's bedtime boy...
Eat your vegetables boy...
Help me boy...
Boy...
Boy...
I shall name my firstborn boy
59:00 Matias sizing up the Stranger sizing up Kratos is so good
Dad of BOY (2018) let’s gooooooooooooo!!!!!
Thats an award winning title
The song "ashes" makes me cry. The whole scene does since she has the same name as my mother. The end has me bawling. Best father son journey ever.
Mati uploaded? Check!
Snacks? Check!
Good internet? Check!
The homies? Asleep
Excitement? Check!
"That's a new voice actor. He's a legend, I hear."
Christopher Judge. He played Teal'c in Stargate SG-1, and surprised me with his ability to convey emotion in the character.
I mean, obviously is a different voice actor, but we can argue that as we grow older our voices/vocals also gets deeper with age. And here we have a clearly way older Kratos, so we can just assume his voice got to that point as well😄👍.
There was a point for like 2 years where I just didn't play video games anymore. This is the game that got me back into playing games and I could not put it down until I got that platinum trophy. It makes me so amped that one of my favorite youtubers is beginning a journey papa Kratos and boy.
LETS GOOO! I’ve been waiting for this day! I unfortunately could not watch the previous GoW episodes because I’ve not played them yet. But the 2018 and 2022 games are incredible! So excited to follow this series! ❤🎉
Excited to have you back brother! So far this is amazing
oh my fucking god i am so hyped for this, gow 2018 grind is real 🗣! Also, almost 40k my mann
So close bro! It's gonna be a fun next few weeks
If you notice, when Atreus first walks into frame, Kratos tries to hide his arms from him, even when Atreus walks to Kratos’ left side.
BOY! THE MOMENT WE ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!
ITS HERE
Let’s go finally I’m so ready for this marathon, this is my favourite game in the franchise and to see my favourite UA-camr play it is gonna be amazing to watch
You da best jid
just finished watching a masterful series is on the way (papa kratos)
I WAS WAITING THIS ONE FROM DAYS LETS GOOO MATI!!! Thank you so much im saying It for everybody❤❤
I GOTCHU bro ❤ had to make sure I was fully ready before this massive journey
Man I just started watching your after you finished GOW 3 and binged all your vids on them. Now I have to wait for each episode 😭
Only 10mins in and you've already gotten a taste of how spectacular the music is gonna be
So glad you finally got to this phenomenal game Mati the level of detail and immersion is unmatched. I don't think I've ever been so emotionally attached to the characters and the world, more so than any film or work of art in this Norse saga of God of War not to forget Ragnarok too!
Congrats for 40k 🎉
Gaming > Girlfriend
This is gonna be so legendary!!!
Love your videos man this journey has been absolutely fire so far🔥🔥🔥
Love to hear brother thank you for being here
Something that kept me amused through 2018 and Ragnarök is that the camera never cuts in game. Neither when entering or exiting cutscenes nor even during them. It's all seamless. Excited to see you continue the journey. Keep it up!
IT STARTSSSSS, man I am so excited to watch you get through this, you’re gonna love it
Already loving it boss I am PUMPED
GOW 2018 is an absolute masterpiece.
Don't worry.. This Kratos is heavily holding back cause you already know what will happen otherwise 😉
im really excited to watch this :)
im glad you played the first 3 bc this story is made so much more beautiful by knowing Kratos' past.
Can't imagine playing it with ZERO context bro the journey has been SO worth it
i never clicked faster on a video
Speeeeeed
Oh yeah!!!!!! Here we go, this is a great intro!
Something about these GOW intros man they are unmatched
YES MATI! YOU MADE IT TO THE NEW ERA! Some important tips, when the enemy attacks, the moves will either be yellow or red, when it is yellow, you can easily parry those moves, when they are red, you want to try to stun them, or dodge roll
You also, don't have to stick to the main story line, you can always go off and do many side quests to get better gear. It's actually very helpful to do so.
That "stranger" is one of the most understated, yet still terrifying, enemies of the last 10 years, I'm telling you
Yeahhh HYPED!! Been looking forward to this video all week!!! Let's goo!!
Wait no more :D
YO! I loved this game, played it when it released on PC, you're gonna have a blast my guy. Was just in the middle of watching the Bloodborne series aswell, stuffs awesome. Looking forward to the channel hitting 40K!
Dog! Great to see you here
YES! This is the one I've been waiting for. GET UP DAT MOUNTAIN!
I WILL!
1:13:16 - A masterpiece of subtle camera movement. I shall say no more. If you know, you know.
As someone who loved the soulsborne ost, I know you’re gonna fall in love with the new GoW soundtrack - it’s just so… fucking good, like up there with ER and BB
So far completely blew me away I am so ready!
CHILLLS!!! Got the chills on that opening scene 👀
Absolutely mental man
I like that you take your time with it all, I have been looking forward to GOW 2018, since I found your channel during your Gow 1 playthrough. Your genuine reactions are just refreshing and wholesome. Good luck with the "Papa kratos" Journey :).
As much as I love the other games, this is what I’ve really been waiting for ✨
If I ever have a son I’m specifically going to tell him to hunt deer in the direction of deer. That is such a goated and underrated line. Looking forward to your journey with this one man. I’m late cause of work but your videos inspired me to go back and replay this beautiful franchise.
A video right after a bunch of pron ads invaded the discord and a baguette pinging everyone
I love this channel
I dont know if any one has said it but the spots on the trolls body are not weak points they are just parts of the body for him
omfg
YASSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!! LETS GO!
But I am still needing to finish the last few GOW3 videos 😂
LMAO they aren't going anywhere chief you got this 😅
Yoooooooo, I was so excited for this. Mati you are amazing.
No you are bro!
The best first hour in gaming.
I remember when this first came out in 2018. Everyone was loosing their minds. God of war was back, but different. Was this the same Kratos? Yes. Everyone who knew him before this game was confused at first but went with it. The theory is that this takes place about 1,000 years after God of war 3. It is just so amazing. I highly HIGHLY recommend you watch “raising Kratos” documentary after beating this game. It’s the behind the scenes look at the dev process and production of the game it truly is an eye opener of how games are made in general but the amazing progress of the game and how it came about and Santa montica studios and the legendary Cory Barlog. Christopher Judge (new Kratos) is A treasure. Such A masterpiece of a game (considering it got GOTY) 2018. Just truly groundbreaking, and Ragnarok? Somehow even better. I am also so happy you played the OG trilogy first. Because a lot of new people started here and it is just not right as they started on 4 with so much missing context and lore of Kratos. Kratos is broken. Shattered. A shell of his former self. One who wanted to just live in peace and get away from the pantheon that he destroyed. I also want you to notice 1 thing about 2018 and Ragnarok…..it’s a one shot. Yup. A fucking one shot. I will be completely honest as well, I have yet to experience A journey as incredible as this and Ragnarok.
He is no longer the man he was at the beginning of this journey and he will no longer be the man he was by the end of this journey.
by the end
Been following since ds1, and man... this channel becomes more and more awesome with every single upload!
BOY TO ME !! Mati is playing our Journey
dude i recommend you read a comic called "God Of War: Fallen God" that shows how did Kratos travel from Sparta to Norse mythology
Brand new adventure lets gooo❤
Love Part 1 days
love the Berserk deluxe editions in the background
I never comment on videos but this franchise along with the reboot series of Tomb Raider got me back into gaming. I found your channel when you started playing the first game and have been having so much fun watching you play these games. Thank you for the amazing videos!
This game has amazing music and a story that will make you cry😢 its so good i hope you'll experience the game as i did!
Only the people that played The Originals can really understand how different Kratos is in this installment you get bits and pieces of his former self that comes out every now and then but he's so much more reserved than his former self... he is no longer Rage incarnate...but something much much more and much much less than he ever was...
And just like that, Mati became a father. So much responsibility. Well good luck Mati, you got a lot coming your way with this one.
Personally I think the reason why Kratos fails to build emotional connection with his son is because he has no reference. He grew up without father, and his biological father... well, he killed him. There was also the explanation that he didn't want his son to know about his past so he keeps distance from him to shield him.
So excited about this!! I just found you like 2 weeks ago while I was looking for a Bloodborne playthrough. Finished it in like a week and then watched your RE2 playthrough over 3 days. Probably wouldn't have ever interacted with the GOW series if it wasn't for u, but after watching you play GOW3, I am pumped to experience this franchise for the first time with you.
P.S. I am very happy to see that the theme music hasn't changed on the channel over the years.
(papa kratos)
Bro the moment you got that first parry I was like ohhhhh shit he’s got it! That wolf that caught you off guard was hilarious 😂. Hey I don’t mind a 100 hour walkthrough please explore like your’e doing, you even got a chest I didn’t get when I played it. Can’t wait for more! Papa Kratos!
Papa Kratos, that was impressive. It took me like 30 tries to beat the stranger on balanced. But I never played a game like this before. No souls games until Demon’s Souls remake. Enjoy bro. It was very cool watching your reaction to retrieving the ax
I’m glad you do a great job of talking to yourself. Lol. Best content on UA-cam. All the best.
BOY!! One of my favorite game openings of all time!!
BOY!
Also just remembering how amazing that fight with the Stranger is. Such a memorable moment in gaming.
Great playing! Glad you enjoyed the intro. I'm looking forward to this.
Edit: Papa Kratos
loving your GOW series man keep it up. also as another series idea you should check out the Infamous games if you haven't played them. i know you'd love em
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
WE BACK
There’s one continuous camera with this game. No cut scenes or at least visible ones. This was a technical marvel at the time. IMO it still is given the graphic fidelity. Camera systems are some of the hardest things to make right in games. This game was like…hold my beer. And editing this because you guys already mentioned it! Glad others noticed it as well.
I platinum’d GoW 2018 and GoW Ragnarok. Both are phenomenal. Been with this channel since Elden ring and loving the growth. Maybe after the GoW series, maybe when you’re done with this you can do a Fallout 4 survival play through. The show was great and they are updating to current gen on the 24th I believe.
I'm glad there's someone else out there who recognized Sunny from mid90s.
I love these games so much, it’s great to see you finally experience them! Not sure if you knew or noticed, but this one and Ragnarok are all one single shot. No cutaways.
56:08 I love the facial capture they managed here. You can tell Kratos wants to cry, but he checks himself and slips back into an emotionless expression.
Yeeeeesssss mate! Been really looking forward to you blasting through this one! I'm pumped! Let's goooooooo
I love how this game took inspiration from The Last of Us, Resident Evil 4 and Dark Souls and became its own beautiful masterpiece
Another masterpiece ready for the Mati bag :D
Collecting these masterpieces like infinity stones
having played this game, I can’t wait for you to experience the awesomest of this game!!!! AHHHH Im so excited.
Papa kratos ,finally you have reached the modern god of war games I have been waiting for you since the begin of the series I got so much excited and now even more I am so excited to see your great reactions after you complete this Masterpiece for me it's the 2nd best game I've ever played after Ragnarok 🙌🏽❤
You are the best UA-camr beside Nicholas light for me in the last year
I was WAITING for this!! Such a beautiful game!
Atreus IS the Duke of Arrakis, he even has the blue eyes. It all makes sense!
Been waiting for this, LETSSSS GOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Hyped to see you start this one. Some people started god of war here when it first came out and missed out on kratos past. I honestly love the fact you start games from the begining like this and dark souls, you'll be able to notice things you otherwise wouldnt. Awesome stuff man, can't wait to experience this one with you.
Can't wait for the next episode! Hopefully these get uploaded pretty frequently. I would love longer parts, but I'll take this length of an episode too. Make sure you explore as much as you can and soak up everything. You can also eventually come back to areas you missed.
A couple things to note. You can actually see Kratos is still wearing some of his old waist guard on his pants. And Atreus is also wearing a piece of Kratos old clothing on his waste too.
Remember that barehanded attacks and arrows do more stun damage than other attacks. Also when you throw the axe, R2 freezes enemies. Not sure if you caught that.
A little bit of a backstory on what Kratos was up to before the events of this game that it never covers. One of the reasons why Kratos seemingly doesn't have a huge connection with Atreus as you can see already is because Atreus spent more time with his mother while Kratos was often absent. The reason he was absent tho was because he would go off into the woods to fight bears and stuff so that he could learn to control his rage. He would do that by letting them attack him and stuff. The rage in these games are actually more than just a game mechanic. They're supposed to show how Kratos can now better control his rage. You'll discover this the more strategically you decide to use your rage. For example, if you didn't notice yet, your health increases while you're in rage mode and you don't take damage (although your rage goes down instead of your health bar). So definitely use it wisely in tough situations.
The fight with the "stranger" is always so good to watch and understand just how much strength these men have.
Bro idk why I got this notification late, but got my snacks ready this gon be a fun one, cheers!
Boy have i been waiting for this! So excited to see you play this game. Much love and cant wait for the next episode. ❤
Been so excited for this! Binged GOW 3 this week got home and put this on the big screen. Love your stuff.
Papa Kratos! I got such chills when I played this for the first time. The music for GoW has always been amazing and this addition (while obviously different) is so fitting for a more mature Kratos who is not running on hatred and a burning need for vengeance. Great start
Lets goooo, this gonna be guuuud
Just got to say you’re my favorite lets player! Love your play throughs keep it up my man!
First time posting a comment in long time, but man you're gonna love this game, can't wait for the next episode. Love your content
AHHH LETS GO!
Thank you Mati!
Thank you for being here!!
Cant wait for the next part brother
I have been waiting for it since I subscribed to your channel. Dreams come true. Thanks, man.
Bro I literally JUST finished your finale video for GOW3…went back to UA-cam homepage to see this video on my homepage 😭😭😭 LETS GO 😤
That is such a beautiful thing shoutout youtube algo lmaao
