Normally, I don't use checkpoints to keep the gameplay consistent with the 'one-shot' camera God of War is known for. I made an exception as the cutscenes are quite long and Odin's 3rd phase is utter chaos at level 1 haha. Hope you enjoy! I will revisit this fight in the future as it's one of my favourites.
tbf he couldn't do shit as a marble. Violence to stop his actions was done, but those 3 all had reasons not to go any further than keeping him as a decorative wall element. Sindri still had vengeance in him - cruelty. And a right to it.
@@D3wd20p I saw a video that pointed out how killing Brok is what got Odin killed. If Brok had lived, Sindri would have no reason to destroy Odin's soul.
The fact that you’re dominating bosses like this at level 1, I’d love to see what you’d do at the proper high level builds and equipments…even if they end up super short
His armor might be level one so are his health and rage stats. But the weapons aren’t. They are just cosmetically changed to look like level 1 weapons, but are actually maxed rank. Can’t perform some of those comboes and moves with level 1 weapons
@@RODDYRODDX No you cannot. You need to upgrade your weapons to unlock certain comboes. It’s not like at level 1 you can perform those moves. SMVR clearly has his weapons at max rank, but they are cosmetically disguised as level 1.
@@swiggityswoogity705 Not gonna lie it would be extremely difficult for a fight to happen without the combos. And anyway he did reset the weapons to level 1 but did unlock all skills as mentioned in all his modded videos using the save editor. He does no damage but takes no damage and wins the fight.
This version of Odin is so compelling as a character and it’s a shame he felt like he was without purpose. He was wanting to know the “big questions” of the universe of “what’s the meaning of life” or “why are we here” and was so preoccupied with the future he neglected everyone and everything in the present. He could have used his power and knowledge to help the people of the 9 realms, he could have been a good husband and father to his family, but instead he chose his own selfishness. The only worthwhile thing to live for in this world is to be a good person and being kind and helpful to others. That is true happiness.
Why do you think Atreus chose to break the mask? He saw what even a glimpse inside the rift had done to Odin. A man who’d forsaken countless worshippers, family who could have loved him, who went to atrocious lengths to get his way without even batting his last good eye. Had Kratos not told Atreus to not take his compassion for granted earlier, Thor would have beaten Kratos into the dirt somehow. Atreus likely would have put on the mask, fulfilling the prophecy of him becoming another pawn of Odin. In fact, an interview with the devs at Santa Monica Studio revealed that the moment Kratos told Atreus to open his heart was the moment they averted the prophecy.
True happiness doesn’t come from helping people always, it comes from simply what you do with your life that makes it content. Odin honestly just needed a hobby other than obsessively collection knowledge.
Quality content as always sir! Also, I’m just now realizing that before Sindri vanished he did the famous shoulder shrug move that Kratos always does after a point has been made. Lastly, I truly enjoy your level 1 battles as they continue to prove that “with proper training and discipline” Kratos is a formidable force. Keep up the amazing work!
@@jhoevanmilesarnoco2658 That is too far, friend. I get it that lore accurate Kratos would decimate Odin at some point or the other, but it would be FAR FAR FAR from a one shot.
This is amazing man you’re doing great keep it up. A part I liked during this was when You Atreus and Freya literally had him stuck in a corner for like 10 seconds at 9:48😂😂😂
I like your play style, it's so artistic and aesthetic but it doesn't too chaotic. keep it up, bro! I can't wait for another version of Odin's fight (:
Not being a fan of neologisms, I still have to say that you are, indeed, "built different." I caved and started from scratch. Doing a low level run, but I am not ever doing this, hahah. Can't hardly imagine playing with the all the weapons almost as though they also got the barehanded treatment. You're something else! Keep em coming!!!
Incredible skill. One thing I noticed tho while playing, is that when you use wrath after Artillery of the Ancients, you actually knock back the enemy, so that the spear detonations won't hit on full effect anymore. Like on 02:02 in your first phase. Since I noticed that I always make sure to detonate them while he's still standing centered in between.
Ive seen many play this game but you sir are the most aesthetic, creative and enjoyable one to watch. Skills are just outta this world. Great job my man
Incredible gameplay as always. You never disappoint 👍🏻 Hopefully new game plus arrives soon, can’t wait to see all the new builds we’ll be able to rock.
I've been following you since the very first videos and none of them has ever failed to surprise me. Thank you Smvr. I hope you will upload a full campaign gameplay GMGOW no HUD just like you did on the previous game, just to see how you handled all the minor fights throughout the game.
Odin is the Ultimate Warlock. The 99 level magician all casters would wish to play. Amazing. And SmvR is the Ultimate GoW... bro, the old man couldn't even cast his last magic shield... poor god haha.
I love your fighting style!! All of camera angle, attack&skill rhythm are perfect!! Like God of war(2018), I want you to play with just-evade(radiance set)!!
I feel like the parry timing for some enemy attacks in this game are a little wonky. For example in the Hirst/Mist fight, when they go for their super long distance spiral attack you have to parry way before their even close to you.
Yes! I experienced this as well. I’m looking forward to your Odin fight without checkpoints 🤯 He has some rare setup moves in phase 3 that pressure the player so much it’s not fair 😂 Glad he didn’t use them for me
I also fail sometimes to those frog enemies who jumps before attacking you with that guard breaking attack as well as the hel raiders if you are in the same level as them with their jump attacks. They seem to hit you before they actually hit you with their animation. So you have to parry way before the attack almost “hits” you.
I agree the timing is definitely off. I feel like I had an easier time parrying in 2018. Maybe it's the yellow and red rings, they seem to show up and disappear way to early. Could just be me getting older too lol.
You are crazy dude you hear me, crazy 🔥💯 How! On level 1. You study so fast. Man wish can have your style always. I've learned so much from you God of War 2018. 🔥♥️ So epic man, you're powerful at gaming, i respect more than i supposed to be. You so a crazy man. 🔥🔥🔥♥️♥️♥️♥️💯💯💯💯🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬 So loving the style. I'm so inspired no lies. Keep up showing more so can learn mate.🙂🙂
Amazing video once again SmvR. You are the true God of War. After Ragnarök it would be cool to see some of the older games. If you fancy them of course. I will never get tired of watching your videos. You are truly outstanding keep up the good work.
We love to see such tactical gameplay and planning, u are truly glorious bro,absolutely god tier 🙌🏽, this shows that with true dedication and effort put in ,the results are omnipotent 🤩🔥💯
9:50 this moment was wild. Kratos, Atreus and Freya just jumping his ass. I like how the AI is so smart that it will literally do the exact same thing you are doing with the companion characters. I.e. Thr rushing attack Kratos does to start the combo is mimicked by Atreus and Freya right after
You make the fans go nuts just tryin to figure out these combos, I strongly believe many have broken their consoles in rage trying this.. Well done parry Master impressive is an understatement for u.. 😌👏🤟
Woah u know what I just realized.. Kratos was supposed to die here in the prophecy because prophecy is just a logical guess of the actions and consequences of individuals based on one's nature.. What the prophecy didn't account for is that Kratos' changed nature, changed Thor's nature right here because Thor maybe was supposed to get up and strike Kratos when Kratos put his axe down and thats when Atreus arrives
I just realized something, 3 boss fights took place in front of the great lodge. 1st was atreus vs heimdall (well imma count that but i know its purpose is to showcase heimdall’s battle capabilities) 2nd was vs thor and lastly, the first phase of odin’s fight.
I really like Odin's character. I feel like people just expected another ditto Zeus, which is why so many people say that Zeus was "better". But that was not the point of Odin, Odin *isn't* Zeus. Hell Odin's not even much of a fighter, most of his strength comes from his knowledge and magical proficiency.
This ^^^^^ Yeah Odin is strong af physically FAR more than he ever lets on but that’s his thing.. Deception. He takes the form of a frail old man seeking knowledge because it disarms people who don’t know his true nature.

I would prefer the blades in level 1 also🤨🤨🤨?!!!!!!!!
Buena pelea, todo un Dios de la Guerra.
Atreus: I can't be the one to kill him
Kratos: Kill is not mine

@@FallenOne669 Well, nothing quite so visceral...
@@FallenOne669 That's the obvious thing.
I love how Odin fighting style didn't rely on his strength. He rely on his magic and tactic to outwit his opponents.
It’s like Odin put attributes more to intelligence and magic then strength
And yet he's strong af, he takes the Mjolnir like it was nothing
But he's rely his power on magic and inteligence
It would've been cool if Odin conjured up an image of the younger version of Kratos to fight Kratos and mess with his mind.
@Punch Down King I think that's because its owner was dead...
Um what strength? 😂 He's basically a mage

that is your perspective on take on true happiness. Many others would disagree, but many at the same time would agree.
Or they could have a decent writing in this game, but...
Was elden ring truly better than this? If so I gotta get it
True happiness doesn’t come from helping people always, it comes from simply what you do with your life that makes it content. Odin honestly just needed a hobby other than obsessively collection knowledge.
Still can’t get over how Freya hits him with the re-stand like “nah get your ass up, we ain’t done yet”
I’ve said it once and i’ll say it again this man is the all-father of god of war

You have the most entertaining fighting style to watch in this game yet. Great job!

Odin: Brain and strategy
Kratos: all of the above

“FIGHT BACK N***A FIGHT BACK!”
Been missing this! Thanks #SmvR 🍻
goated my boii best GOW game play ive seen🔥🔥

Man if this is with base game mode on the highest difficulty, I wanna see what this would be on NG+
Excellent gameplay as always, my guy ^^
You’re style has been the cleanest in the game since 2018. Good stuff man

Awesome, thank you for making and sharing this video
9:39 Freya: "dont mind me, just passing through"
So impressive, can’t wait to see more
1:49
I really like the sound Gungnir makes whenever Odin lunges in to try and impale you with it.
Kratos disrespected the All father by holding back.
Odin is the Ultimate Warlock. The 99 level magician all casters would wish to play. Amazing.

SmvR how stylish you can fight in every game?
SmvR: yes 🗡
Hey SMVR, I am a huge fan of your channel. How do you time your parries in Ragnarok? The window feels different this time around.
8:26 I just realised Odin use the Noose and turn it into his weapon
Odin is basically Mafia Dumbledore.

9:37 🤨This is the first time i see Smvr miss a parry 😄, Seem like Odin is trully remarkerable tough.
In my defence Draupnirs Wail slows down time when you release triangle, causing my parry timing to be off. But still yes, Odin broke my guard lol

Damm the prefect counter and stun cancel,I need to learn how to do that
Another top gameplay perfomance
Did anyone play the trailer where Kratos fell off the ledge and his son came to help him with the big dog afar.
Wow I’m impressed you did a real KH critical mode style hands down, very impressive :P
I'm your fan from Philippines... I'm. Always like your video gameplay.. I wish can play like you 😊
