lmaooo yea he beat the hell out of that guy it always threw me off. Kratos plunged his blades in his back while in the underworld just to climb up this cliff edge. Once Kratos gathered his balance he kicked him into the pit of the underworld. Young Kratos was ruthless but there were moments where he would seemingly go out of his way to cause as much pain and carnage as possible. Another one was when he bashed this guys face in repeatedly to complete a puzzle..I feel like he was filled with so much trauma and inner turmoil that was his way of raging back at the world. Good things hes changed now

The boat captain that was killed by Kratos multiple times honestly felt like a running gag. For Kratos to show remorse for it now, closes out the gag very well. It's like we got the answer to a question we never thought to ask.

Then there's the guy in the cage who he burned alive to open a door, and he puts himself through the same experience.

I'm pretty sure in God of War 2 he forced a guy to read a book then killed him because one of the mechanisms to one of the puzzles required a blood sacrifice to activate. In GoW 3 he also bound one of Poseidon's sex slaves underneath a lever and let her be slowly crushed under its weight so he could bypass the gate. Old Kratos was pretty barbaric all things considered. I wonder how Pandora would've felt about him had she known he butchered her father not too long before their meeting. 🤔

Bro, when Kratos mention the boat captain i was hoping the 3 keys we collected was to open the door somewhere to meet the captain again in Valhalla so we can apology to him officially.

It's not like the Boat Captain knew of the undead soldiers, tbf...

Seasoned ship captains know very well to fear Kratos.

If Kratos feels such remorse over the repeated death of the boat captain, then the death of Poseidon's princess must feel like the Blades of Chaos empowered by Surtr's fire impaling his heart for him

fantastic writing

Does he talk about the last Spartan he killed at all? Even if it were a mistake? Though I guess that guy is alive again since Kratos changed the timeline

“MULTIPLE TIMES”

I wonder why Helios was the only one Kratos interacted with. Not Pandora or anyone else. Obviously they chose Helios so they could swap him with Mimir. But it would have been nice to see some old faces. Surprised Athena didn’t chime in. She could have even been real too. We know she’s watching him. Maybe not making herself known but she did appear in the last game.

Wasn't boat captain transporting slave in lore? I don't know why would he pity him if he was evil

We use to find it funny but now it's acknowledged as cruel

No sh*t kratos was a literal jerk to that poor boat guy 💀

And then what happened?

i think i should point something about that Boat Captain since lot of ppl start feel sympathy for him. Maybe game not directly point out but i pretty sure that Boat Captain is slave trader, i mean just look at Captain's Key design and also problem on why ppl being lock down there. also, Boat Captain abandon his crew and run for his life make kratos annoying too

Wasn't he a slaver?

For those who have not played the first game, the Boat Captain was a pathetic man who abandoned his men to die when the Hydra came. He earned OG Kratos’ disgust for that. I don’t understand why the new writers of Ragnarok didn’t acknowledge it. Then again, they have probably never played it to begin with either.

I think it's more then kratos being disgusted with someone it's how he views himself as a man or a God. In the older games kratos always raged and yelled how the gods have wronged him but he didn't see or care about how his conquest for vengeance was harming innocents with disasters and plagues. That he realized he was no better then the gods he had sworn vengeance against.

@@eduardor-o4884 According to New Kratos, yes. According to OG, no. Different voice actors, personalities, motivations, body languages and more importantly, different writers. What Kratos is, is a reflection of the writers working on the game. He's not some sentient entity with his own thought processes and personalities. 5 year from now, he could have a different team working on writing him. Wouldn't make him the same Kratos as this one or the OG one.

Ok but Kratos he was a human trafficker.

Funny people claim that the Boat Captain was the captain of a Slave Boat, but no one has proof of it.

In god of war 2 he got reborn again as a spirit of barbarian king.. I tried no to kill him this time but the can't progress if we didn't kill him

I really wish Ragnarok had gotten good writing and dialogue like this.

Kratos didn't do any of that with hope in mind tho. The hope argument only really came late into GoW 3, and it's continued in the Norse Saga as well. Killing the boat captain, as well as other things were simply means to an end for Kratos (Either via him serving the Gods, or him trying to claim something, or him trying to gain revenge). Back then, he was ruthless and did not care. Now? He's not that, and after past reflections, yeah, he would get sympathetic over it all. He was a cruel man, and it haunted him for a long time. Valhalla is the first time he actually tried to conquer his regrets and choices from past games however.
