1) I’d rather play Thor tbh, dude is cool as hell and he’d be fun gameplay wise

We'd finally get to wield Mjolnir. And it would be infinitely better than boring ass Marvels Avengers.

I wonder if they'd bring back aerial combat for Thor

 

[WanderingGecko]

Yo so i wanted to ask something, how exactly did Athena ascend to a higher reality and would that make her be on the same level as Yggdrasil since she’s on a higher plane too?

 

[Dienomite22]

Almost forgot

Kratos doesn’t need to sleep as a god (likely extends to the Olympians) and Odin can summon blinding light during the final battle

He also has a “binding spell” and weird glyph but idk what that is (Sealing?)

Iirc Kratos does need to sleep, its just that he can stay up for months without sleeping. In the Fallen God comic he had to sleep but didn’t want to because when he woke up the Blades came back so he stayed awake for as long as possible without sleeping until his body forced him to sleep.

Do we know how many people have been in contact with Gondul? It's stated in 2018 that her figure was so stunning it literally drove men insane and Odin had to ban her from Midgard because of it. I know Odin frequently dealt with her and the other valkyries so he'd probably get a resistance to madness manipulation since he never went insane from her, Kratos and Atreus also didn't go mad when speaking with her freed form (Kratos already has the resistance due to greek stuff but Atreus doesn't have it listed).

Would Freya get this too?

 

[Dust_Collector]

Yeah she'd probably get it too

 

[Gasper]

Odin sould also had soul manipulation

 

[BEASTHEART8800]

I think he already has soul manipulation

 

[Hellbeast]

I think he already has soul manipulation

Yeah via the Ravens
But yeah someone needs to write up a new AP list

 

[Planck69]

Yeah via the Ravens
But yeah someone needs to write up a new AP list

Like, the new tiers or AP description?

 

[Gasper]

Can we already make CRT for abilities and hax for odin, thor, kratos, surtr etc?

 

[Dust_Collector]

Nope, we need all the info we can squeeze outta ragnarok first before making a crt for their abilities.

 

[Gasper]

I see

 

[Gasper]

Will all gods now be 2-C instead of possibly and lose 3-A and low 2-C ratings?

 

[Gasper]

I also think all high tiers should be "at least 2-C, possibly higher".

 

[Sniper670]

Nope, we need all the info we can squeeze outta ragnarok first before making a crt for their abilities.

Agreed. This should encompass EVERYTHING, and not piece by piece

 

[Dienomite22]

Freya sounding like she wants to be a step mommy to Atreus

 

[BEASTHEART8800]

She probably sees a lot of Baldur in him. I think Kratos will probably have Children with Freya in the future. She does have two daughters that haven't been mentioned or probably don't exist yet in GOW.

 

[Lilixa]

what ability is this for odin?

 

[BEASTHEART8800]

Shapeshifting.

Also did Odin and Freyr........

 

[Lilixa]

Shapeshifting.

Also did Odin and Freyr........

odin bisexual confirmed

 

[Gasper]

Does garmr have size manipulation?

 

[Lilixa]

playstation all star is canon nice

 

[BEASTHEART8800]

odin bisexual confirmed

Just like Zeus. And most of the Greek Gods.

probably Kratos too

 

[Dust_Collector]

playstation all star is canon nice

Finally, with this confirmation the game is 100% truly canon just like Shovel Knight is, I can scale Sly Cooper to Kratos

 

[Dienomite22]

Milana Vayntrub aka at&t's milktruck woman voices Lunda the dwarf who takes over for Brok and has the hots for Kratos apparently. Good VA work.

 

[Gasper]

Ragnarok sold more copies in it's first day than 2018's in it's first week.

 

[Lilixa]

oh yea it's true thor can turn into lighting.

 

[Gasper]

oh yea it's true thor can turn into lighting.

What would that give thor?

 

[Dust_Collector]

oh yea it's true thor can turn into lighting.

I don't see a single instance of Thor actually turning into lightning, just coating his body in it.

At first I thought maybe he was actually becoming lightning when he moves around at really high speed but when slowed down I noticed he doesn't, he's still normal just dashing fast enough to look like a blue (With the added electrical effects on his body I can see why at first glance it looks like he's actually turning into lightning)

No, he is turning into lightning. And he disappears when moving

 

[Dust_Collector]

He doesn't disappear when moving, I went frame by frame to check and he's just moving really fast and his body is a blur (A body that also doesn't visibly turn into lightning) and leaping into the air and crashing back down.

 

[Dust_Collector]

btw what ability does Odin concealing the murder of Groas husband from her sight count as? Don't think it's power null since he's not nulling anything just hiding something from her visions.

 

[Chianli]

I still don't understand the reason behind Sindri being upset at Kratos and Atreus. They were quite literally blameless in that situation.

You probably got told already but let me say one thing kratos said to atreus in the beginning of the game

"Intent doesn't matter, only the consequences"

 

[KLOL506]

also holy shit

garm ate concepts, he devoured the season between Winter and Spring and that sensation of being so hungry you stop being hungry. He apparently also can resurrect and has no soul until Fenrir’s was bestowed

Is a Season a concept? Not sure.

 

[KLOL506]

Kratos also states that whatever advantages Heimdall has, Kratos would overwhelm them with his own. The Spear is one part, but his palpable Rage, AD and RE are another. Man literally resists Heimdall's mind read, precog and other shit and then ******* bullies him within 20 seconds. Doesn't even give him a hundredth of the brutality he gave Hermes.

bump.

 

[Dienomite22]

Cory said Athena ascended because she was a god that died for something other than herself which is something rare. We don't know what that means for tiering.

 

[KLOL506]

bump.

Her selfless sacrifice to save Zeus. She says this in GOW3 to Kratos when she gives him the Blades of Exile.

 

[Lilixa]

how about at 3:13 tho ?

 

[Dust_Collector]

how about at 3:13 tho ?

If you go frame by frame at that moment you'll see he's just dashing backwards at high speeds and be able to make out his body still being normal as he does so
