God of War: Ragnarok Discussion Thread

He'd have rid Kratos of his nightmares and capitalized on his still existing loyalty I'd think.
If Zeus was actually really smart he'd also stop busting a nut with literally every thing he sees in front of him and would make a mandate forbidding gods from playing around with humans, if anything they'd actually stop ruling humans altogether and instead live humble lives beside them like Kratos eventually would. Maybe he'd even harbor building up new relationships with other pantheons and encourage inter-pantheon friendship on top of that.
 
How Kratos was able to overcome Heimdall's precognition? Was it explained in the game?
Usually with the Draupnir spear, but the expression on his face as he slays heimdall reminded me of young Kratos. And most likely, with that anger, he could kill without a spear.

nice fanfic
 
I remember during interview Cory Barlog mentioned about "mystical realism" in GoW. I think it can be used as supporting evidence that abstracts in GoW are literal
 
Wouldn't that technically give him omnipresent speed on Earth from killing Gaia? Or am I misunderstanding power absorption?
He didn't kill Gaia's true form, only her physical form.

That and he has to willingly do it. Usually he's more than content with life absorption and rejuvenation.

May I ask, how do we know whether or not Kratos absorbed the powers of a God he kills?

Simple, see if he hurls his blades into beings to take all that shit for himself. Shockingly enough, he doesn't do it as often, even with the Blade of Olympus.

Normally tho, from GoW3 onwards, he just doesn't care for their powers. He just wants them dead.
 
So no one here discuss about trap tool that kratos used during quest ? Are there any new insight or information regarding that tool?

Ah, alright.

Additional question, do you guys plan to make a Jormungandr page?
 
Nope. He lost the powers, when Zeus smacked his Claws. Kratos needed the Claws to keep Hades' souls and all those millions of other deceased souls under his control. When that broke, all the souls were lost.

latest
 
Only thing he'd keep would be the Resistances, as he's faced all of it when facing Hades and his Claws before stealing them and his soul.

Hmmmm but where did the souls go now that Thanatos, Hermes, and the other gods are dead?

The souls just kept mucking about all over the Pantheon. They are aimlessly wandering around with no peace or redemption. After Kratos killed Hades, the entire Underworld had gone haywire, people and souls who weren't supposed to ever leave, just callously did so.

Maybe with Hope, they'll be restored to life and would aim to do better. The people already started rebuilding not long after Kratos's departure from Greece.
 
Imagine Persephone being bum-**** mad that Hades and the rest of the Pantheon dying didn't result in the world collapsing

Technically no one would die after kratos killed both Thanatos and Hermes. Since no Hermes, no souls to guide to the underworld, no Thanatos no death (as he is the god of death)

mythically accurately speaking

People kept dying tho. It's not like the Concept just ceased to be, because Kratos definitely took his spot afterwards as Zeus himself says by quoting the Bhagavad Gita Oppenheimer style (Ironic, considering GOW Prometheus's voice actor Alan Oppenheimer is like, J. Robert Oppenheimer's third cousin. Yes. THE J. ROBERT OPPENHEIMER). And then the depowering happens and it goes into the Blade and back into Kratos it goes. And then he lets it all out with PoH and kills himself, giving all of his shit back to the world.

That said I’m sad klol that the blade of Olympus and some of the other Greek weapons do not exist in Greek mythology 😔

Same with the flame of Olympus
 
Lemme know how good this scaling chain is:

GoW3 Kratos (Pre-Hades) =~ Ares/Poseidon/Hades ~= Held Back Thor (based on Krato's statement and WoG) = Held back Kratos < Pissed Full-Power Thor =< Still holding back but less Kratos < Serious Kratos = Odin =< Pissed Full-Power Kratos

So GoW Ragnarok Kratos > Pre-Hades GoW 3 Kratos.

Good job getting your strength back and then some, Kratos.

You forgot to put fully-mad Ragnarok Kratos into the list.
 
Edited it.

Does it look good to you?
Ye, looks good now. For obvious reasons GoW3 Post-Hades Soul Kratos would still scale massively above the cast (Equal in physical stats but on another level in terms of sheer hax, equipment and winning options for overwhelming), never-mind the fact that GoW3 Endgame Pre-Hope Kratos literally keeps up with GoW3 Zeus's power growth into his Endgame state so that Kratos would be way, way above anything in his entire career.

How do we know exactly that Post Hades Kratos > GoW Ragnarok Kratos.

We know he absorbed the soul of Hades, who matched him, so he'd be 2x stronger than before.

Right?

He's got the entire Underworld at his side, all those souls to torment, including all the Titans who were imprisoned there. And he still got his shit kicked in to the point where he loses the will to fight entirely.

At that point it's no longer a mere 2x gap, because Kratos with Hades' soul is now able to tango against GoW3 Beginning Zeus who not even mere hours ago one-shotted his Pre-Hades form that kicked Hades' ass. And then Zeus undergoes Zenkai to go further beyond, but nope, Kratos still manages to pin him down.

In other words, the gap is much, much greater, but unquantifiable.
