Like, Ragnarok dickrides space-time manip so hard but ultimately shafts itself in the scaling chain by further d**kr*d*ng the Greek Games. Which makes me wonder...
Why is it that the devs feel guilt-tripped about the old Greek Games when those games also had a shitton of heart put into them and weren't just edgelord-fests? Like, GOW1 got critically acclaimed for the same exact ******* reasons as GOW2018, this is not a myth, you can look it up yourself. You'd think they'd give the Greek side more attention and give the people a chance to play those games on newer hardware for preservation.

I meant as a game.
It seemed like they were proud of the previous games in Ragnarok

Btw, do we know where athena is right now? I expected her to appear in ragnarok again, now i am curious as to where she is
- 32,780
- 37,958
Cory said that no one's heard of her in years after Kratos's rampage. The last we see of her is in Fallen God.
- 9,874
- 3,386
She apperead in GoW 2018, i guess we will not be seeing her in a while, also Fallen god is canon?
- 32,780
- 37,958
Yes, Fallen God is canon, it pretty much explains Kratos's deathless curse and why the Blades of Chaos keep coming back to him regardless of how hard he yeets them into the horizon, and it also showcases Kratos's journey through Egypt, but he is effectively clinically insane here, he can't tell left from right and is in a constant state of hallucination due to his failed attempts at further suicide.

If fallen god is canon, then shouldnt krato have a "higher with the blades of chaos" in his greek key? If i am remembering correctly he one shoted a creature he couldn't even make flinch with his hands when he used the blades
- 32,780
- 37,958
No, because he isn't in his Greek key anymore, he's in his Norse key, this is him post-Blade of Olympus seppukku.
Norse is kind of debatable, because even with his Blades of Chaos used against Thor in the rematch he's still not edging out to above the redline limiter he went in the first rematch where he punched Thor's teeth out, if anything it kind of implies that Kratos can tap into his own dormant powers more efficiently now without having to lose himself to his own rage. GoW Greek Kratos has no need for that because he's basically completely broken from the deaths of his wife, child, mother, brother, the Last Spartan and the rest of Sparta. He basically sees red everywhere he goes with an extreme case of tunnel vision with regards to his rage.

No matter what mythology, arrogance will be the downfall of every god leader
- 4,067

Moreso lack of control
Odin wants to control everyone but couldn't control himself, he had no actual reason to kill Brok, he was just annoyed asf (so more exactly odin Wouldn't have died if he succeded controlling himself like he wants to control others)

Now i am just wonder what will happen if odin didn't kill brok ? probably ragnarok will be postponed lol
- 3,043

oh yeah that is actually very great idea. Sindri would not destroy that soul ball stuff.

you know what SMS can introduced alternative timelines in GoW Norse or something where small change can give huge outcome to certain stories.

In the case of Zeus, it wasn't just arrogance, it was complete incompetence and basic lack of common sense. Him favoring his own son is what ultimately got him killed to begin with, plus trying to rip away everything from him, like Ares didn't teach him a goddamn thing about not going after Kratos's family. If Zeus had just returned his lsat remaining family to him and elevated them to God status Zeus would've avoided his death completely and all would go well.

There is some theories about zeus actually loving kratos as a son before Fear infected him, but idk
- 32,780
- 37,958
There is no doubt that Zeus indeed favored Kratos as his one true favorite son, Kratos tried to cope but there was no denying that Hercules was purposefully rubbing the truth in his face just to further piss him off, because that's literally what everyone in the Greek Pantheon has so far done to him before getting whacked.

Zeus could've removed his nightmares, elevated him to the throne of the God of War and do away with a vast amount of any animosity he would've had. Alas, he was being a bit of a dumbass.
And it's even funnier because Kratos up to that point of being denied his wish was actually still somewhat reverent of Zeus.

Tbh that would have been setting a new precedent.

Zeus did mentioned he had Pity on him
I am definitelly not from "pre fear zeus was a good guy" group but from what it seems he did

Honestly evil and good are subjective anyway and the embodiment or objectification of those only serves presentation of plot story. I can argue Odin is good guy relatively even though the story show him as a evil person objectively.

I am legitimately curious how you'd argue him to be a good guy.

well for starter he want to make nine realms better according to his mind.

It is kind of crazy how different GoW 1 is compared to the rest o the greek era, like in the first one kratos was kind of respectful to others, and he qas way more reserved, but in a diffent way than the norse era, even in ascension he was more explosive with his anger than GoW 1, specially with how kratos speaks with the gods, every time i replay the first it feels weird storywise
- 6,127

The respect he felt for gods on screen was mostly a facade, a way to appease them and keep in good graces. A fool's hope that they will take away his nightmares and coping mechanism, even though deep down he knew it wouldn't amount to much, so inside he was nothing but cynical.

What atlas said in chains of olympus really impacted kratos huh?

He already knew that, but Atlas affirmed it for him.
