She wouldn't flatter him without good reason tho. Ares was just that much of a menace if Ascension is anything to go by.
'Cause he has no reason to use them anymore, he could've discarded them when he was in the process of bringing over the Titans to the present since he now had the Blade of Olympus.
I mean isn't that just a flowery way to say that he took the blade with his power in it back?
again i highly doubt a few million souls that are at best 7-B (if we say every greek is a champion level fighter) would really affect the power of beings that swing around infinite 4D power levels squared
No. It isn't. Kratos w/ Titan Powers fought against a BoO-equipped Zeus twice in a row and forcibly took the Blade for himself twice in a row. Zeus verbatim stated that even the powers of the Titans were completely useless against him now, which thoroughly indicates it wasn't just Titan Powers working against Zeus, Kratos's own godly might was now stacking up on said powers to be undermining all of Zeus's attempts to kill him.
Clearly that amount of soul collecting over the thousands of years plus Atlas's soul has now effectively allowed him to one-shot Titans all across the board. Then there's also the countless prayers offered to the Gods that strengthen them further.
Isn't the spear of destiny supposed to contain a soul of a God?
and statements that he is still weaker than posidon I mean half the population of the one country who warship the gods is dead they ain't getting more than twice as strong in a matter of 20 minutes
Okay and? I wasn't talking about Ares. I was talking about the rest of the Gods weaker than them. Like Helios, Hermes, Artemis, Apollo, those gods.
It is only ever shown to take his magic supply and neuter his magic bar, not that it actually power nulls him. Otherwise he would have lost his magical powers all those years ago in CoO and he wouldn't have been able to do jackshit about it because he was unconscious.
Entire Population of the Greek World which has its own countries. Plural.
When you flood an entire world, the entire balance gets uprooted. Hades revels in the souls of the damned more than anything else.
Im talking more like GoW way of doing countries which are whole **** off universes in some statements(tyr) to just basic countries that can be traveled to by foot or boat(kratos ragnarok)
again 7-B souls at best are not gonna change the power level difference that drastically that quickly
Ragnarok's statement was more so referring to Realm Travel in Greece, where Ratatoskr asks how the hell Kratos travelled between realm to realm in Greece despite the lack of a Realm Tree (Which is confusing because the only way to get to the Underworld is to fall through the chasms in Olympus and the Island of Creation, or by dying, and the only way back is through a Hyperion Gate or through the chasms which serve as tears in the fabric of space. All other realms require portals or Hyperion Gates to access or leave, Domain of Death is weird in a way because Kratos descends downwards back into the Mortal World but the Domain of Death is nestled in between the Mortal World and Underworld). The Pantheons themselves (Or countries in this case) are separated by geographical divides, and geographical divides are not interchangeable with the word "realms". These Pantheons inhabit an even greater Earth/Universe that is clearly much larger in scope than our own Earth.
It's not just the power level that amps Hades, it's the fact that he can endlessly torment them using brand new punishments and their pain is what gives him strength. Hades lives and breathes for the sole purpose of tormenting these souls for all of eternity.
well i mean its clear as day that its larger but it is a bit iffy to be honest
still i really doubt that he got well over 2 times as strong in a span of an hour tops half the souls were not even done falling into the river by the time we merc the cool aid man
It is what it is I suppose. It's the closest the devs thought they could get to without going too sci-fi, they hate to see GoW in that light.
You're forgetting one more man in this equation. Hermes. He personally delivers all the souls to the gates of Hades the very moment they die (Which is like, seconds, tops, and Hermes delivers every single one of them to Hades' doorstep) and then ***** off to wherever he pleases because he's an arrogant piece of shit.
I know what im saying is that while hades is more than likely more powerful i doubt he got THAT much stronger since kratos no sold posidon like nothing which honestly makes sense since kratos was comparable to Zeus in GoW2 and actually stronger than him and Zeus was able to one shot the two brother kings like nothing
The power difference between Hades and Poseidon isn't that big compared to Zeus's overall power difference compared to those two combined. Poseidon is second in rank only to Zeus, yes, but nothing implies Hades being that much weaker considering he'd be growing in power at the same rate as his brother plus having the souls and their eternal torment.
I know that is kinda the point there is no way in hell hades managed to get strong enough to actually be able to keep up with end of GoW2 kratos who is as strong as GoW2 Zeus who i miles above both Hades and posidon put together
Here's the funny thing, Kratos didn't win against GOW2 Zeus. He lost. Even with the Blade of Olympus now back in his hands to filter his power through. Zeus effectively brute-forced him into feigning defeat and playing possum to catch Zeus off-guard and then ram him through with the Blade of Olympus. Which of course, still didn't work no matter how many times Kratos just kept pushing through and then Athena came into the background after which Kratos literally swings the Blade to his left without actually pulling the Blade out AKA he literally just sliced through Zeus's ribcage as well via that animation and Zeus is still strong enough to gather himself and... fly away.
he was still the closest to Zeus in power the difference between the two was not overly vast as it is with zeus and other olympians and him going from nearly as strong as zeus to being a stronger but still comperable to hades is such a massive powerdown its not even funny
KLOL swear to god
Except we also see it corrodes his blades and drains life force, the assumption is that’s the expats nation for Kratos having none of his powers from the last game
The moment Zeus goes giant mode again is the point where you see just how powerful Zeus really is. Kratos becomes hopelessly outmatched and outgunned no matter how hard he tries. Never mind the fact that Kratos constantly drains Zeus of his power using the Blade of Olympus and weaken him to his level, it's the one reason why Kratos tried getting the Blade to begin with (Even then Zeus was still slightly stronger than him as evidenced by him being able to easily yank the BoO out of Kratos's hands even after multiple beatdowns), but once Zeus balloons back up to full strength, it's a fool's errand.
Or, it can be easily explained by Kratos fighting a decently nerfed version of Zeus thanks to the Blade of Olympus's power-drain abilities.
BruhKLOL swear to god
The elementals? Maybe, or they could just be a way to signify the new weapons taking their place. The physical amps? Absolutely not.
Not talking about the Gauntlet part, that comes way later after Kratos frees himself from the Pits of Tartarus.
Cool, because for a second there I thought the physical amps were being put into question as well.
Not sure if that involves the part where Charon dumps his ass into the river on their first fight, because that's what I'm talking about.
It's all on Zeus's profile. I went through the trouble of scanning out every last one of them.
Maybe just Shapeshifting? I always assumed that lol
NGL the game wanked the Greek Pantheon too much.
Thanks!
They should completely overhaul the gameplay for the next mainline Kratos game and keep the Atreus' gameplay the same with new features, mechanics and weapons of course for a DLC or spin-off.
They should definitely remove all the RPG stuff and have a heavier emphasis on platforming.
High 6-A
Same here. The first half was really good but it slowly started getting worse and worse after that.
Yeah, with a soulslike camera, too.
That too. RPG elements are even worse in this game and it annoyed me
