You understand this guy completely annihilated an entire pantheon single handedly, right? No army, no dwarves black smiths, no Freya, no Atreus, nothing. All by himself. He butchered the entire pantheon of Olympus and Greece. Like the scene where the Nornir are mocking him. Like really? You didn’t learn from the last sisters of Fate? Who were MUCH more powerful than the Nornir. And why is Kratos even worried about “dying”? He’s died before. I think 2 or 3 times. He literally murdered his way out of the afterlife. This is where my suspension of disbelief is kind of shaky.

"Journeying through time is more trouble than it's worth." "Ah. Fair point." "...wait hold up."

You forgot one; when kratos tries his spear out of the first time, he mentions how the spear is the first weapon a spartan masters.

Kratos petting the wolf's after reminiscing about Deimos due to their whining is simply perfect

fun story relate to "the hot gates": -there was 2 Spartan that was dissmissed by leonidas himself to go back home because 1 was sick and the other was wounded and tasked to carry him back. when they came back, the tasked soldier headed right back to the hotgates, only the ill soldier remained, humiliated by his country because Spartan's ultimate goal is to serve and die a glorious death on the battlefield, striped from his rights and citizenship of sparta, he swore revenge for his king and his fallen brethens. his name was Aristo-demos. - came next yeart, on the battle of Platea vs the Persians, he was the one leading the charge and fight, quote: " with a rage that not even death can hold him back, half broken shield and a dull sword and yet enemy lies defeated with each steps he takes. blood covered his hand, chest and face, waves of enemy continue to swarm the battlefield. he died a glorious death, hands gripped on a soldier till the spears impaled him motionless, red glow like roses rushed out from his body, bathe the sand of Pletea, Sparta has welcomed their lost son finally returned and reunite with his brethens."

The Greek gods and that whole pantheon are so fuckin far beyond Odin and company it’s not even funny. When kratos finally started sharing details of his life in this game I’m just sitting there with a big grin on my face.

To be fair this would make perfect sense. Mimir is clearly a celt, probably from somewhere closer to what we know now as scottland or england by the way he talks about stuff like haggis and black pudding. Olives wouldnt have been able to be acquired very far outside the of places by mediterranean sea, maybe at farthest the part of the world we know as the middle east, until the expansions of ancient Rome. Not without extreme difficulty at the very least. We know Kratos had become a god sometime after the battle of Thermopolyae (aka the battle of the hot gates or the battle of 300 spartans) because he mentions in one of his stories that he regretted not joining them, so we can assume he became a god around the late to mid 400's BC. Rome wouldnt have even existed as a city state, let alone a republic or even an empire, for a few hundred more years. I like they included that, its a neat detail.

Sharing the stories of Deimos and Caliope were a shock. But for me the tale that stuck out the most was Pandora’s Box. In the first half right before Freya cuts him off, Kratos is about to mention the flame of Olympus. I feel that If she hadn’t interrupted him, he would’ve gone on to explain his own part in that story. Dudes walls were crumbling down in this game. He’s come along way. The cycle has indeed ended.

Greek gods in the Myths were much stronger than norse ones. Egyptian Gods might be stronger. But I have a theory that all the pantheons Kratos is visiting will have a grand purpose leading back to a "source" of the gods. Odin and Athena are examples of this. Athena actually exists in the Higher Plane itself. Odin found it but cant get in. Athena died a noble death and something about HOW gods die seem to be what allows them access. Odin wanted a way around that via the Mask.

It is strange that Mimir are quite well verse about Greece but doesn't know what olive is.

I wish they brought up zeus as the odin of the greek lands, and how powerful he was

Mimir mentions having heard of Zeuz in the first game when he discovers who Kratos is, putting together who his big bad dad was as well

Oh wow I just searched for this and was hoping someone uploaded something. Gotta love KZread. I also love how they made everything canon. It was a brilliant decision.

3:55 & 5:15 Oh so Mimir is implying that his origin is of the Celtic world of mythology? That's cool!

The Celtic world must be within the Norse one. It seems like it's not an easy thing to cross into these other realms. Tÿr had the unity stone to help him cross. Not really sure how Kratos managed to visit several realms

Without knowing the lore of the old games these ones wouldn't be as good and you can tell from many journalists who never played the originals saying he's "deep and a good character now" like he hasn't always been

It's nice to see I'm not the only person that would try to call back my axe only to end up spinning the blades around.

Most often in the pitched heat of battle, just as an enemy attack is about to bring Kratos down lol

Mimir: The hells an olive? Smartest man alive everyone

5:22 ah yes, kratos' past.

5:20 "The hell's an "olive?"" Says the smartest man alive.

I've been looking for this video. Thank you

I liked the subtle reference to Sisyphus with the man would couldn’t part with a boulder.

In 2018, we saw Kratos' past come to light as he tried to hide it from everyone. In Ragnarok we see him speak of his past. He trusts them enough to speak of his past with no hesitancy.

21:25 I love when they include little nods to the comics I’m sure if that means there cannon or not though

God im going to really miss hearing Kratos tell others about his past. As sad as it was, it was also badass at times.

Even though I think that GOW 2018 was definitely the better game, it was REALLY cool to see how far Kratos. I can't even BEGIN to count how many times I found my self with cheesy, ear to ear grin on my face because you can clearly see genuine happiness on Kratos' face, MANY times throughout the game, for the first time since the very first GOW. I've played ever single GOW game, including both handheld titles, and I can't think of a single moment where Kratos was actually happy. Since the death of his family, all Kratos has know is pain, suffering, misery, anger and rage. Happiness was completely foreign to him, and rightfully so.

2018 definitely has the better story

I like the mention of Oedipus the King, and a proper description of how Greek dramas were told in the Ancient tradition. It’s pretty cool for a game to even touch on that if only briefly.

The final story refers to his cameo in Mortal Kombat 9. The "greatest muscian of all time" is a reference to the MK character Rain, who was named after Prince's Purple Rain.

Then again, it COULD also reference the ever-mixed-bag PlayStation All-Stars featuring a whole bunch of PlayStation characters (the “world’s greatest musician” likely being PaRappa the Rapper, or “Pappy Rappy” as Caddicarus calls him).

OKAY LET'S GOOOO FIRE 🔥 KRATOS IS A TRUE BADASS MONSTER KING

see the most of odins power in this game really feels like it comes from the fact atreus is with him and that is the real threat cause he could kill him but when you fight him it feeels like his true power power isnt all that much. especially compared to the greek pantheon kratos has killed far more dangerous and powerful enemies that had more of a toll on him

As far a pure force and power the Norse really aren't all that powerful save for Thor and maybe the Valkyries. The real power is their spell and curse work along with Odin being a master manipulator. Zeus wasn't a dummy but 9/10 he would solve his problems thru brute force.

22:47 I didn't know Kratos spoke about Sisyphus as well...

To be fair the Spartans did call him lord kratos so I'm sure that counts in his God hood

22:40 love the nod to Sisyphus there

“Magic comes from the earth” Kratos: *killed Gaia*

This is the first video I have heard thus guys voice

If only Kratos could further elaborate some of the Greek cultures and events like the trojan war and the 300 spartans. That would be a nice touch to the lore

Kratos playing with wolves were so wholesome

So surreal hearing the man speak of previous games, makes me have flashbacks to the points he's talking about in the ps2 era

The one we’re he was talking about fight Madusa had me dying laughing lol 😂😂

"Yeah... Word gets around about that sort of thing..." 🤣🤣🤣

23:15 I just love how they basically almost made the mortal Kombat crossover canon

Mimir not knowing what Olives are is still freaking hilarious. 😂😂😂

Kratos trying to be friendly to the wolves was hilarious

22:42 is he talking about Sisyphus?

18:55 Um... last I remember, Kratos was told to kill Medusa by removing her head.

Make sense considering Atreus is half God, a normal training is enough for him to survive and fight.

@Rodolfo Sánchez not biologically. Pandoras box heightened his God-like strength but still was a demi God by blood. as did the other power ups he got for his body. He was given the title "God of war" but it was a title earned but still a demigod considering he's a child of zues. The rest of his power was stripped from him after he tried to kill himself and released the power of hope. Thor is incredibly strong but still half God-half giant as kratos is a demigod despite the title. Kratos is only the God of war by default as no one is left to hold the title in hid lands because he destroyed everything but he threw it all away not even seeking ares' Job. So in short he didn't become a full blooded God that used to be mortal as it was later revealed he's a demigod from birth because of zues.

Finished ragnarok two weeks ago and just finished replaying god of war 3. Greatest franchise ever fr fr

Love the last one about PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale. Still waiting on a follow up for it

“The hell’s an olive?!” 😂😂😂😂

That last one is the best it being a reference to PlayStation All-Stars

Omfg the Mortal Kombat reference at the end! 😂😂

Freya, "which did you choose?" Kratos, _"the hard way"_ Freya, "FORGET I ASKED" 😂

The 2nd to last one, where kratos mentions the boulder, he may have been referring to Pirithous who was stuck on a rock in The Underworld as punishment. Kratos being literal is such a mood
