    Calling it now, next game features Kratos returning to Greece with Mimir. Athena’s still a loose end from the Greek saga. I think that making amends with her would be a great way to cap off Kratos’ journey. I mean, people often consider Ares to be emblematic of Sparta. Of warriors and bloodlust. Likewise, Athena is considered the patron god of Athens. Of philosophers and wisdom. Kratos acts less like a Spartan and more like an Athenian as the Norse saga goes on. If Kratos’ journey of ascension as a god began with his going out to kill Ares, it would be a perfect bookend for that ascension to be complete with saving Athena. It would also be a way to use the more spiritual nature of post-Valhalla Kratos as a plot point instead of just treating him like some sort of superhero. Do with Athena what he did with Freya. Show the duality of Kratos as a worthy heir to both Ares and Athena’s seats, better than both. Make it so that Kratos, in his enlightenment, becomes more than “a” god of war and becomes “the” god of war.

    Kratos wasn't one dimentional at any time. Kratos has always been a multi faceted character. From combat prowess to intelligence, from empathy for his daughter to caring about others like Athena. But a few people claim that he was a raged simpleton and one sided before the Norse Saga. That's completely false. Even before the betrayal of Zeus, he only wanted his memories to be wiped out by the Gods. That's why he did their bidding. Kratos - "You have always been more than what others saw." - 100% Facts

    Yes. Kratos gotta be one of the most misunderstood protagonists in videogame history. There was always more nuance and more sides to this character - other than being an one man army in murder everything that moves mode - than many people give it credit for. Kratos was not born a monster. He was made a monster. And the less he has to lose, the more reckless he became. Is Kratos an asshole or an tortured soul? He is an asshole, because he is an tortured soul, like Santa Monica used to say way back in the day. More like a good old greek tragedy, which was actually quoted on the back cover of God of War 2005. He sure as Hades was never meant to be everybody's darling and i always loved that. Like the anti-hero take was very bold at the time.

    the idea that kratos was one dimensional IGN level purple haired dumb take. It isn't and has never been true. It's the kind of take that people think they are supposed to say, but haven't thought it out. It stems from the original games being unapologetically violent and masculine, with some T and A scenes.

    If there’s such a category, this wins DLC of the year. Or even Game of the year. I wonder if this was what was left over (cut) from the original game after the deadline was met last year and they polished and finished it just to release it to the public for free. Regardless, and with no intentions to take away from the effort they put into this, I am grateful for their hard work, filming and acting, software development, writing, animating, directing, everything they put into this DLC. Thank you Santa Monica Studios. This DLC has only put another node in the journey of masculinity. The disciplined young Spartan who became a soldier after emerging out of the Agoge, then became a fierce Spartan commander, ambitious to face the Persian Horde, became a servant of the gods, then a vengeful god-killer, and a parent who was CALM but had violence brewing. He learnt to control his rage and skill, raised a good young man, and now is confronting his past mistakes to learn that even in his reckless actions, he was conscious enough to do some good and now is a better man who would put all he knows to the service of others. This is a good example to boys and young men around the world. Hone your strength, mistakes, good deeds, flaws and have hope such that each day you press forward to not be sorry, but be better.

    I really like what they did with this DLC. It really shows Kratos finally making peace with himself after everything he’s done and coming to really, truly accept that he is not the man, the monster he was in Greece. In regards to the next game, I think it will still be a Mile Morales like spin off for Atreus where we get to see where his travels in search of other giants have taken him. But at the same time, I think it might be possible that Sigrun could get a DLC in that same game where we get to see where her travels have taken her.

    Great idea. In order for kratos to come back and fight there needs to be a good enough reason (obviously his son) and the passing of the torch (his axe) to his son is a tremendous idea to have atreus start becoming the focal character. However I would rather kratos and the dwarf reconcile and he makes Atreus two hatchet 🪓 type weapons because he’s more of a speed character I think it suits his fighting mechanics more. Kratos gets to keep his axe, while Atreus gains his new weapon.

Wow we got 2 amazing story arcs, Kratos and Mimir, in a free dlc simply amazing. I was so ready to get GOW for my steam deck, but so glad I waited until I got got a ps5 this past June. As a father I felt every pain and hardship he went through with trying to raise a teenager. Also Thor trying to deal with an overbearing parent while trying to raise a teenage daughter. Gosh this series just hit all the feels for me. The top tier animation on Kratos with his lips quivering just had me on onions. Amazing job SMS they deserve an award for the whole series as a whole and DLC of the year. WOW simply wow. If Kratos and Mimir’s stories end here I’m fine, but if they go on an adventure in some other pantheon looking for Sigrun that would be so awesome too. Either way wow.

    My thoery is that Kratos is slowly evolving into a sort of Abrahamic God-like figure. He becomes the one remaining God of hope and light while Atreus becomes his son. Hell Mimir is kind of the holy spirit lol. We got a full trinity.

    God of War 2018 was my first GoW game. I knew about the games coming before that one, they were just fun hack and slash games to me, but never played them. I really liked the more story driven approach of of GoW, and fell in love with the deeper story of Ragnarok. The story of that game is for me still one of the most amazing stories ever witnessed (even comparing to movies and all that). Thinking it had a great ending nothing could have prepared me for the story of Valhalla. I am still struck by it and feel like I need to recover xD. It did make me realize that those first couple of games were more than just hack and slash aggression games. Valhalla really made me want to play those first games, maybe I'll even make a marathon out of it for myself. The ending of Valhalla gave me a bit of a bitter sweet feeling tho. Having an ending so perfect I scared we will not see Kratos back any time soon or maybe ever.

    This idea of other characters getting dlc spinoff like games reminds me of Kingdom hearts in a way. I like having side stories fleshing out the other characters, playing as them and having the main attraction be in the spotlight of the main titles. They can set Sigrun up for the bridge between ragnarok and the next saga of the franchise with an epic return, much like Atreus and of course Kratos. I think this will be the most Powerful form of Kratos to date. He is now one with both sides of himself and accepts the version of himself that destroyed his homeland. With an aligned mind and spirit, comes with an aligned mind and body working in unison. After fighting witb Tyr as well, he will be ready for the next phase 💪. Its like the one piece 2 year time skip, everyone will get an upgrade.

    Your analysis of how these games recontextualize violence to be more meaningful than the original trilogy does a bit of a disservice to the cathartic vengeance of those original games, and why that flavor of violence is meaningful as well. Violence can be impactful for its own sake, but especially when contextualized as a revenge driven quest for peace of mind like in the original trilogy. If we all grew up as you say where vengeance isn’t a meaningful enough reason for violence, then someone should tell Quentin Tarantino. But most of what you say is fair, and there certainly is more depth to these games than the originals, though that’s mostly due to Kratos’ trajectory as a character. It would mean less if we didn’t have the original games to fulfill that side of him first

    I know this wil be a bit of a unusuall opinion but I think that Kratos is not done in the story and the reason i say this is actually the fact that there was bits not talked about in the dlc. There is no mention of Athena and Demosis plus many other characters and that part is not finished. I also believe that they most likely will make a companion game where you would be playing as Atreus and maybe Sigurne but thats just me as i love playing the games and love Kratos as a character.

    It's clear that Kratos will now mainly stay in the Norse realm as their new God of War, but Tyr's yoga in the epilogue of Ragnarok hinted to the sequel being God of War China, as the director mentioned. Aside from that, there's still a few slow burn developments, Kratos/Freya, full peace, Thrud, now Mimir/Sigrun, etc. Atreus is definitely getting his own game. So, I guess maybe Sigrun might coincidentally join him at some point. I think Athena's part in God of War isn't over either, even though she's barely been mentioned or seemingly ever foreshadowed of anything. Otherwise, I can't remember what else is left to explore in the norse.
