With the boots of Hermes I wouldn’t need a car anymore

just don’t fly too close to the sun or any places where it’s super hot

I think icarus wings don't work well like that, it can't cross very long distances, like icarus who was trying to reach the sisters of destiny, normal icarus wings are used to glide over high places, but everything needs a considerable wind to be able to fly like kratos in the games

About the Boots of Hermes I really don't know if our body will withstand moving at high speed, I think it would be disintegrated when it ran at the speed of light or higher, we would have having a body sufficient to withstand high speeds and the heat when moving, due to the heating of the muscles

Wouldn't that require that the Blade already had the power of a God?
The only time-frame where that was the case was the beginning of GOW 2 until the Zeus boss fight.

I thought non-Gods cannot wield the Blade of Olympus to an extent that a normal God could.

Kinda curious: should we make a separate key for End of God of War 2 Zeus and GoW 3 Zeus since the strength difference is so significant, or is it unnecessary?

Unnecessary. His stats change but he doesn't even leave the tier.

Question when kratos opened that box and Zeus laughed, didn’t kratos actually already have hope inside of him, even before he opened the box?
- 32,835
- 38,108
He had Hope for almost 13 years prior to this when he killed Ares. It was just locked inside of him.
- 25,632
- 15,962
So basically it took something really traumatic to awaken it
But when kratos opened the box for the first time, (sorry for being nitpicky) didn’t pandora actually open it first obviously? (My mythological accuracy nerd inside of me strikes again)
- 32,835
- 38,108
Something traumatic wouldn't cut it. Kratos had to lose literally everything he had left in order to unlock Hope, as Pandora herself said, Hope is what people fight with when all else is lost. Forgiving himself was just the first step to unlockng it.

A part of me feels that the hope he had to kill Ares and free himself from his nightmares is what allowed him to draw on a sliver of its power to kill Ares, even when the latter tool all of his magics and weapons away.
And the revelation that his nightmares wouldn't ever go away killed that little hope he had and made the power go dormant until Pandora allows him to reawaken it.

Why didn’t the Greek gods just remove his memories?

During that moment at the end of GOW3 where Kratos starts beating Zeus to death, I like to imagine that the only thoughts going though Zeus' head during the brief few seconds before he actually dies were "WHY THE **** DIDN'T I JUST REMOVE HIS NIGHTMARES"

Too late for Zeus, tbh he deserved death

What's funny is that according to the novels, he didn't do it because "Well I have to live with killing my family, he should too"
This is ignoring Zeus gets a massive boner just at the thought of torturing Chronos further and doesn't care that he condemned the rest of the Titan race (including Gaia who raised him and gave him her blessings to kill Chronos) just cause while Kratos truly from the very bottom of his heart and soul regrets what he did to his family.
And funny enough, the moment he reveals this to Athena she loses all respect for him.

Wait, I got a question: would GoW III Cronos scale to GoW III Kratos since they fought and Cronos was able to injure Kratos with some of his attacks, or at least required him to exert effort? There's also the fact that Kratos needed the Blade of Olympus to kill him. Kratos literally accused Hephaestus of sending Kratos to his death, showing that Cronos gave him a serious challenge. Wouldn't that mean they're comparable in stats? I just finished beating Cronos, so I'm curious.

Maybe but @ByAsura said kratos would defeat chronos in any scenario
- 3,704

Same goes for Hermes. I mean, Hermes was still capable of staggering Kratos with his blows. It's really not that much different than Heimdall, and we still scale Heimdall somewhat to Kratos for staggering him despite not really injuring him.

No. Cronos was already long depowered and chained up. Kratos using the Blade of Olympus was just adding insult to the injury to Cronos. Not just that, you also have to remember that by this point the BoO is nothing more than a hunk of metal drained of whatever power it had left, which now serves as a conduit for Kratos' own power (As it doesn't light up without either Kratos or Zeus channeling their might through it).
Cronos wasn't really able to do anything much to Kratos. Hell, even the slap that Cronos tried got stopped dead in its tracks by Kratos himself.
Kratos accused Hephaestus because he didn't reveal the full truth, if the game has taught us anything, Kratos doesn't like people who keep secrets from him.

Hermes wasn't able to do jackshit in the actual fight, it's essentially a bully-fest where you only get hit if you allow yourself to, which in this case, is painfully easy to not do. Just whaling on Hermes in any difficulty will whittle him down to less than nothing.

We should really try to remember that gameplay will add artificial tension for cohesion.
Like, you just killed Hades, who was defeating a far more powerful Cronos back when he was far weaker. There's no feasible way for Cronos to scale to you, much less Hermes.

Speaking of hades, taking his soul has to be one of the best scenes in the game.
