"He tortures me, you know. Every day, brother. Odin himself sees to it personally, and believe me, there is no end to his creativity. Every. Single. Day. This... this isn't living." Mimir spitting facts. There are fates worse than death. Staying stuck in the tree and getting tortured endlessly by the Aesir for knowledge is not really "living". If he gets reanimated, he gets to join Kratos and Atreus in their adventures and see the world again while offering them his wisdom (albeit he can't move on his own). If he dies and stays dead, he's free from all of it. It really is a "no-lose" situation as far as he's concerned.

Mimir was the best travel buddy anyone can ask for

I love how casually Kratos says he's going to cut Mimir's head off.

Mimir's voice actor is great.

While Kratos talks to Mimir you can still hear Atreus trying to cut the tree

Mimir: Your father won't let me go, Baldur, and he won't let you kill me. You have nothing to offer me. So take your questions, take your threats, take these two worthless wankers, and piss off. Me: Wow. What a way to introduce a character.

I read somewhere that GOW's depiction is truer to the myths than Marvel's. Odin and all norse gods were more on the grey side. However, apparently the biggest liberty GOW took is in the depiction of Baldr who is pretty much regarded as norse Jesus. Can't complain though. Baldr makes a very compelling villain.

Exactly what he means. Every single day, Odin stops by to personally inflict pain onto him in different ways. ""There is no end to his creativity." means that every time is a new original way to torture him: one day flaying, the next day ripping out nails, the 3rd day branding, and etc.

Personally, I would prefer Beerus the destroyer from Dragonball super who just destroys things because of what he is than the sadistic fearful hypocrite that Odin sounds like in terms of character. Let me just say that creative torture sounds really perverted though in this day, things such as cyber bullying where you don’t even have to show your face to the people you insult is the norm, tragic really... until someone can make humor out of it, like Mimir.

Kratos have superhuman strength, so you cannot compare him to your average puny human, so kratos can do that much quicker than normal human could, you do know that bear can cut of your head with one swing of his claws and his foot , and you do know that kratos is like milions of times stronger than bear, and his axe is like tousends of times strogner and better than bear claws, so dont be stupid, there is there is no "let this one slide." it would be stupid and unrealistic if it took kratos more than one hit to cut his head of, DONT COMPARE NORMAL WEAK HUMANS TO KRATOS , kratos is much much much much stronger .
