I saw an interesting argument from @Devilchylde1004 about the Pantheons and some other stuff so let's begin :

1.I just want to share a couple of things. firstly Oranus didnt create everything, when he states I created life it was purely because be bred with gaia..... he himself cannot bring life into the universe without her... dont take things so literally.

2.Also to add in interview withK Kotaku and Cory Barlog,Cory has stated multiple times that gow is a singular universe and the 14 realms share the same umbrella shaped planet with the tree only connecting 9 of the realms.

This constitutes a GALAXY in gow. similar to asguard in mcu.

Quote from :

What’s Next For God Of War (kotaku.com)

Quotes

Barlog: Oh, totally. I’ve always looked at this universe like our world. The geography separates the cultural mythologies. The cultural mythologies are stories of the zero-point to present day. These are the birth and the origin of these cultures. So the Norse mythology exists in Scandinavia, and simultaneously, across the world, the Mayan mythology has its origins, right? These are cultural stories about how they explain the birth of their cultures. And I think, as I look at the whole world, that each of these gods had their own domains, right? The way that countries had their own domains....

And quote

Barlog: Right [laughs]. But yeah, it is a consistent single universe. As we start to look at these things, there’s little bits, here and there, that let you know. Like, Tyr, had connections to a lot of other pantheons. And there is reference, in Norse mythology, of gods interacting with Roman gods. It’s very small, it’s very minimal, in their connections, but it shows that there was an awareness. And whether that awareness was post-the time where they were moving the pagans away from the pagan religion by having the mythology slightly modified, to kind of move towards Christian religion… I think it is fascinating to imagine that at all times, there [are] these connections to every one of these locations.

Never in gow has the word universes been used for realms..

Also evidence

Interview with corey barlog on

Youtube 102 rapid fire questions on god of war

Timestamp 1:55

The realms share borders and are only seperated by the scar of light...

Hense the bifrost and capturing the light of alfheim the scar of light that seperateds midgar from alfheim

I think corey barlog debunks this easily :p

And final conclusion.

Show any of us where it states that any realm is it own universe :p

Peace!

While there's a non-zero chance this is just a meme thing, I would also like to mention that GoW4 shows that one of the ships from the original series ended up in the Norse lands.
 
Yeah I'm pretty sure this is almost certainly a joke comment or just hilarious downplay because the GOW Explanation Blogs cover all these arguments, and I've seen the scans and arguments for myself firsthand. Also, the blog that this comment was from? Outdated because WindGod's blog came way later.
 
I mean, glass houses and all that, but why do so many twitter WoG questions come from people with anime avatars.

Its like.... such a common thing.

Why are you looking at me like I'm the guilty one, I only use twitter for the good stuff IYKWIM

But yeah it's hilarious to constantly keep hearing how all the ratings are based on WoG only when it's not, it all comes from in-game sources, official novels and comic books, official artbooks and guidebooks, in-game bonus videos that are certified interviews which do nothing but help solidify the actual in-game material even further.
 
I mean half the cosmology blog is WoG quotes. Just that the other half is adjacent game source and game sources.
I'm pretty sure the game sources, novels, comic books, guidebooks and artbooks take up a bigger chunk than the WoG quotes that are only Twitter shots. But the actual interviews and Bonus Videos included in the games themselves count as part of the actual game sources.

Majority of WoG at best is clarification on the actual stuff that actually exists in the lore and other game materials.

It's mentioned in the Prima Guide but there's a big ******* problem.

Kratos yanked the key from the Captain and used it on the door already.

Also we have Matt Sophos stating that each Pantheon has its own version of all countries, like Niflheim having its own version of Egypt.
