Hey
Noooo
Well everyone needs to eat but still No
NO
JUST NOOOOOOO!!
You look like my brother in law
"Do they not tell the tortoise and the hare story in Greece?"
Ironically that is one of the stories that Kratos tells his son in GOW4 before we pick up Mimir. Kratos implies that he knew Aseop personally and heard the stories first hand! So to answer your question, yes! 🙂
In the novel it is said kratos is 1000 years old I guess he learned that from experience
Well when Atreus asks Kratos for a story he tells him the hare and tortoise one so there's proof of that story in greece
Aesop (the fella who's fables the story is part of) was a Hellanite (Greek dude), so it fits
🙂
@@PatriotZest that’s the whole point of his comment
“He seems like a calm and reasonable person”
*Yes very calm indeed*
When your actually first also love everything you do your voice is very calming
What you said about speaking your goals into existence and that you made yourself a great community of video game lovers was definitely enough to earn my subscription! Keep up the good work 👍
I enjoy watching "everything wrong", but I didn't know I needed an "everything great", thats just neat.
*censored Gaias chest* *turns around, doesn't censor the Gorgons Chest* TH-cam is just weird like that
Love how each hit was a brute counter on Poseidon
One thing a lot of people miss in GOW3 is when Kratos took the soul of Hades, he did NOT release it (he can't) when he stabbed himself. Its the entire reason why he survived the impalement at the end. He is no longer the God of War, he became the God of Death. This is why he is going to be the bringer of Ragnarok. Even the developers confirmed that he is cursed to roam the lands for eternity because he is unkillable. And if you really think about it, Hades was unkillable too. The only reason you defeated him is BECAUSE you took his soul. If not for that, he would have survived and kept coming back. Kratos, in his blind rage, did not realize that he basically doomed himself by stealing his soul.
Iirc, one of the developers stated Kratos no longer holds Hades Soul since he doesn't have the Hades Claws, which means Hades soul was free
Also, wasn't the whole God of Death thing something that was implied in the end of Ghost of Sparta, after Kratos kills Thanatos?
@@mrx9540 By that logic, Hades should have lost all of the souls inside his body after having the blades stolen from him by Kratos. However, that was not the case because those blades were only tools to take Hades soul. Once the soul is bound to someone, you can't just let it go like you're holding a breath.
More evidence to back this up includes the fact that Kratos was told to never cross the bridge of the damned in GoW4 yet he does anyways and with ease. Mimir talks about how cold it is in Helhiem but Kratos not once acknowledges the fact that it's cold because to him, it's not. Hades soul in the 3rd game allowed him to travel the River Stix because the God of the Underworld is unaffected by Hell or it's afflictions.
The soul, like previously mentioned, is preventing Kratos from ever actually dying, even by his own hand. If he did let the soul go, he would have died from impaling himself on the Sword of Olympus just like the other time he was impaled on it. Kratos was not immortal, even as a god, until he took Hades soul.
And no, I don't remember the Devs ever saying he let it go. Everyone has this weird misconception that he did let it go when he really didn't. I remember the Devs talk about how Kratos took Hades soul in anger but didn't realize how big of a mistake it was until it was too late. He cursed himself to get revenge.
I'm doing some background research to back this up so if I find anything, I'll update you.
They should make this thing a 3D ride
The whole Poseidon water horse thing may seem super weird until you dig into the much more ancient Greek mythology. Originally, Poseidon was the main god and he was a god of horses, earth quakes and the underworld. Also, in Greek mythology just like Cronus took out Uranus and Zeus took out Cronus, Zeus was supposed to be taken out by one of his sons too. He was supposed to be killed by the son of Metis who is Athena's mother yet that never happened. Athena is Kratos' half sister which is why he took out Zeus and why Zeus tried to get rid of him, they really did their research for this game. Minus the fact that Hades really isn't that bad a guy and the worst thing he did was kidnap Persephone his wife but compared to his brothers he wasn't a rapist.
Chad OG GOW vs the Chad 2018 GOW
Kratos was Doomslayer before Doomslayer.
Kratos told atreus the story of a hate and a tortoise aka him vs hermes
Great, now you gotta do the whole series, Backwards
0:40 events of the past 4 games actually 🤣😅
Posiedon death made my eyes hurt
EGA Knights of the Old Republic in celebration of it's remake announced?
I don’t ever think he ever killed Artemis or
Aphrodite
I meant he also didn't kill hesta, Apollo, Artemis, or demeter
When did Kratos kill Aphrodite, Artemis and Apollo? Or... Did he?
So yeah, if ya'll ever wondered why Kratos was so hesitant at telling Atreus about his past and true nature, I think this game tells you why.
"Son, let me tell you about the time I literally killed everyone."
@@seamusburke639 "And a couple that I killed more than once."
"I killed many who were deserving...and many who were not..."
Fraya: does he know who you are?
Kratos: Boy listen well, I killed my father.... and brothers, Sisters, uncles, grandparents, first wife, daughter, the earth, fate, several armies, the entire population of my world, and death itself.
Boy: ....
He could have just said he was a general in a massive war and he would've told some of the story.
Hermes was also considered the god of medicine so when he kills him all the sicknesses in the world escape
Apollo and Asclepius were the deities of medicine, i've never heard or read Hermes being pictured as the god of medicine.
@@dilospino It was one of his secondary things if I remember correctly, though of course he was first and foremost the Messenger of the Gods.
@@BM-cw6wj Idk, as far as i know, medicine has always been related to Apollo and some other gods. In fact, the modern usage of the caduceus in ambulances/hospitals/medical equipment is wrong, since the caduceus represents commerce. Asclepius' rod is the right one, but both look very similar.
@@dilospino
I believe it's because of his caduceus/staff which depicts two snakes encircling a winged pole being mistaken by late 19th Century American health experts for the actual symbol of health (the Rod of Asclepius, one snake circling a pole without wings).
It's darkly ironic that the caduceus actually stands for trade, commerce and wealth and is often misused in American healthcare.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caduceus
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caduceus_as_a_symbol_of_medicine
Hermes was the god of too many things.
TC Carson was such a good, violent Kratos and I for sure think he could've pulled off more mature Kratos, although I really like Christopher Judge in the role. Wish the working relationship ended better and maybe one day he could return and face Judge as sort of a mirror Kratos is another game.
Maybe Kratos having to face his past in physical form of younger Kratos?
I like the new Kratos but he feels like a completely different character
@@RobertEdwinHouse9 that's the point they try to make. This Kratos is nothing like the Kratos we had before
@@bardofboars7226 the change of voice makes sense while growing old
what happened between Santa Monica and him?
I always felt Kronos saying “who else could?” Was more of a nod that he understands just how powerful kratos is at this point. The gods never killed them only trapped them away or forced them into labor while kratos actually finished the job with one of the oldest beings of all time and Kronos felt a respect or even a sort of genetic pride at this. Being the grand son and all
I took that line as more of an "Who else is depraved enough to kill the mother of all of us
@@jasonhudson4966 that’s also very good
Wdym never killed them?
@@kyaho8166 banishment is not death, they had been banished to Tartarus. Meaning still alive
But many titans have also been killed by the gods during the first and second war.
Just a small note to add to the few gods Kratos doesn't kill, and that's Artemis. She shows up in game 1 to give him a weapon and then we never hear or see from her again in the series.
@truehyperwilliam she shows up in the first game when you get medusas head as a new weapon. Other than that, that was it. As far as im aware.
@@PresWorldWid
She shows up in 3 as the QTE sex scene. She survives the game too.
@truehyperwilliam Kratos definitely gives her the 'weapon'
so Rhea, Deimos (do we ever get to see from his brother?), Artemis, and Aphrodite survive the series
@@willlavine1105 Deimos was killed by Thanatos in either Chains of Olympus or Ghost of Sparta
TC Carson's kratos is amazing and I really wish that he's and santa Monica's relationship ended in a better way. Even though I think Christopher judge was the better pick for older and calmer kratos he is amazing
Adult kratos
You mean older kratos? lmao
He made a kickass Mace Windu as well
How did their relationship end?
They could've at least had him take on his old role in the flashback scene in Helheim with his final encounter with Zeus. Especially since they weren't solid figures and were at a distance from our vision and Judge's Kratos
The 2D section of Zeus boss fight is made all the more impactful as you see Olympus crumble in the background during the fight. Zeus fighting to hold on to his power even as the bastion of it literally collapses all around him. Could also be said that it was visually representative of all the destruction Kratos brought on them.
It's the destructive anger that is in Kratos represented around all of Olympus and Finally Zeus
This shows what is in you is also what you are gonna put out
If you have good faith and work ethic
You will prevail and it will show all around you
Isn’t it amazing, best game ever
it’s a shame you didn’t win Poseidon with his outstanding line when he finally shows himself
“YOU CHALLENGE ME MORTAL? A GOD OF OLYMPUS!”
that’s epic right there
One win I wish you'd added, was that Kratos actually holds no ill will against Hephaestus. He's one of the few Gods I'd wager Kratos feels bad for killing, but completely understands his reasoning. Kratos threatened his daughter, and Hephaestus did what any father would do, try and stop his killer. Kratos even comments on it afterwards. It's such a good little moment that speaks volumes about how Kratos views fatherhood as well.
He talks about it in Valhalla aswell
I wonder if there’s going to be an everything great about bioshock
bruh
You bet your sweet bippy there is
Absolutely not
There needs to be
That would be amazing.
Here faster than kratos beating Hercules
Been waiting for this one chad🗿thank you fam
What I did like about GoW3 was what it revealed towards the end. The revelation that Kratos is responsible for all of his own misery. When he opened the box way back in GoW1 he released all the evils of the Titans out into the world. They latched onto the Olympians and caused them to be evil, thus ensuring his further suffering. Now this isn't to say that Zeus and Co weren't always dicks. One only needs to look at any Greek myth to see that plain as day. However without those evils than they wouldn't have been so murderous towards Kratos, likely just leaving him alone for the most part.
Nah.. The aftermath maybe.. But for previous definitely not for some thought :
1. Zeus tell ares to catch his brother also Zeus kidnap his mom to curse her
2. Kratos patheticly beg for victory
3. Ares control him to kill his own family.
The outcome would still be the same since zeus had fear already before getting the evil fear when he got told of a prophecy that a marked warrior will overthrow olympus and that happened to be deimos so he sent ares and athena to kidnap deimos to his torment with death aswell as cursing his girl callisto kratos' mother.
i would like to have you exclude hades as he was generally a nice guy the persphone thing was a acceptable thing back in the day
But that was in all the other games. The only reason Kratos cursed himself to Ares, was because he wanted to win. And only when he gave into his blind anger, did he kill his family. This game is the apotheosis of that build up, but it was still their.
You're forgetting that they're the ones who made him open pandora's box in the first place. They needed Ares dead but didn't have the stones to do it themselves so they got Kratos to do their dirty work. Yet in the end, blame him for what they wanted!
I would love it if you did a video on God of War 1 and God of War 2!!! They're such amazing games that deserve their own video
I’m playing through GoW 3 for the first time now, and as much as I love it, I feel like 1 and 2 might even be the superior ones in the trilogy.
The Gaia punch through Posiedon was one of the coolest game moments ever.
You should do sly cooper next bro that franchise is so underrated a masterpiece of a franchise.
Yes! I grew up with those games and i absolutely love them. I try to replay them at least once a year and they are still so fun :)
@@enceladus2018 my favorite franchise I agree I try and do the same.
It’s amazing how well this game holds up today
The GOW series is the best way tp redeem an irredeemable character, We've seen Kratos at his worse and we've seen Kratos at his best. For Atreus he want to not make the same mistakes that he made with his first family.
Well kratos isn't at his best it's more he starts the transition to become better morally then again the "BEST" applies cause we do see the best version of him as "The GOW" in the final battle of Zeus. Peak GodKiller mode. So I guess you're right in a way
It be interesting to see what you think of the Transformers: Cybertron games, at least the first two. If your a fan of Transformers, there two of the best games for it
Hell yeah
Those games were so much fun. I love war for cybertron and fall of cybertron.
What about devastation?
@@brawmankerlexterminateurde860 that one wasn’t really good to me and the story was short and not really memorable.
True they were awesome
odin: you a mortal wants to kill a mighty god-like me HA don't make me laugh.
karatos: why do i feel like i heard that a lot before
Thing is, Odin knows Kratos is a god, and know what he has done, at least to some extent, so i don´t think he'd be that cocky
They can try to incapacitate or possibly kill Atreus for them to see what a greek God of War can actually do against all of them.
Odin ain't shit compared to Zues
16:48 Kratos never killed Apollo, his half-brother or Artemis, his half-sister.
I also depressingly love at the end, before you start punching Zeus to kill him, the corruption leaves him and he returns to normal. Sadly, Kratos does not let him talk again.
After that corruption leaves him his eyes still are white which i think shows that he still had some in him,also even if Zeus talked he probably wouldnt change instantly since he would/might have memory problems because of the fear forcefully being removed
He also does not kill Aphrodite. He bangs her silly but leaves her alive.
I mean I might've since he destroyed the world
he has some voice lines that didn't make the final cut
Can you please do inFAMOUS 1 or 2 please? Those are my favourite
This is possibly one of the greatest things to come from the cinemasins hogwash. A new wave of people looking at movies and games with the objective of pointing out all the great things. Not much positivity around nowadays so I absolutely love watching these videos. Great work on it too, the quality of the video is highly apparent here.
This game actually has quite an excellent voice cast
For example:
Zeus is voiced by Corey Burton (who actually voiced him in Disney's Hercules)
Poseidon is voiced by Gideon Emery
Hades is voiced by Clancy Brown
Helios is voiced by Crispin Freeman (who has done some voice work in the spin-off GoW games)
Hephaestus is voiced by Rip Torn
Hermes is actually voiced by Greg Ellis, not Adrienne Barbeau (she is the voice of Hera)
Daedalus is voiced by Malcolm McDowell
Wow that's pretty nice they really went all out to the point even they were 99 percent sure this would canonically the last game
There was also Hercules being voiced by Kevin Sorbo.
@@cmurphy0707 he mentioned it
Disney Hercules was voiced by Rip Torn, who voiced Hephaestus in this game
@@TheSaxAppeal actually Hercules was voiced by Tate Donovan in the Disney Hercules
27:59 so when I played I didn't know it wouldn't stop until you didn't so I was there doing it for like 5 mins thinking it would end
26:17 Awesome little detail... you can see Pandora trying to reach the Flame of Olympus in the background
I had a really bad day today and in the evening (I live in Germany) I felt down, but then I saw this Video in my subscribtions tab and was hyped and happy to seed this video. Thanks GamingWins for making my day
only real legends know this video was reuploaded i can say thats a win point for me right there
I legitimately finished this game not long ago. Amazing timing
I would love for Santa Monica to bring back TC Carson in some way in ragnarok. Have him be some other character or something
Would love to see a boss fight where Kratos has to fight his younger self, maybe an illusion made by Odin and have TC voice the younger kratos
@@datboi_lex9337 this would be fucking sick, atreus being afraid of his fathers younger self stricken by fear, old kratos has to fight him alone
20:55 it’s only after looking back at a cutscene video did I realize that the hand Kronos is holding is Gaia’s which is how he assumed Kratos killed her. Shows how much I payed attention after the many times I watched these cutscenes
13:46 has to be the best we’ve seen from Kratos, being comedic and sarcastic
This is still one of my favorite gaming stories of all time. How someone hasn't cast gerard butler as Kratos and made this into a movie is crazy to me
Not everything needs a big screen adaption. Though solid call Bulter would be good. He already has experience as a Spartan.
i think the shift from Carson to Judge for kratos was, as much as this hurts to say, a smart choice. Hes a changed kratos from what we remember. So having a new voice actor for a tame more stoic speaking kratos was the right way to go.
Also I doubt Carson has the build to physically portray Kratos like Judge can.
@Christian Stewart not only that he could easily have given the same emotional range that judge did with playing kratos. Carson showed that range in Chains Of Olympus when he had to deny his daughter after finally giving up the monster (my heart got shredded at that moment)
@Christian Stewart oooh that's a tough moment too
@Christian Stewart is very rare we get this level of storytelling in an incredible action game
Damn you make a great point never really thought of it that way but you’re 100% correct
This is perfectly timed I just finished this game a couple minutes ago
I am living in your walls.
Really wish you gave it a win for having Poseidon’s POV when we kill him. Really shows how terrifying and unstoppable Kratos seems to the gods
When kratos yells to zues “ Put her down!” I always get chills from that. Idk why it’s great
“How many people do you want kratos to kill?”
“Yes.”
I didn't expect to see you here
@@rogue_sebass8770 nobody really does
Absolutely love these, would love to see you do the Uncharted franchise if you get the chance
hell yes
I would love for you to do one of the yakuza games I think you would love that series
“ The hands of death could not defeat me. The sisters of fate could not hold me. And YOU will not see the end of this day!” - kratos
Ragnorok is going to be so good. I can't wait, because it was confirmed that Kratos was holding back his strength throughout the entirety of GoW 4, Mjolnir is as good as ours.
Wait what, when was that stated? I need a link right now
When we getting Everything Great About hellblade senua’s sacrifice?
Kratos: *kills both Poseidon and Hades back to back at the start of the game*
literally every lesser god of the game: *thinks they can beat Kratos in a fight to the death*
Zeus gow2 and Ares were the most difficult boss in gow greek series to me and every battle was easy enough
16:50 at least his sister Artemis and Afrodite are alive
This game is unforgettable. I played this when i was 6 (my brother warned me and played for me at the nude parts) its so good i remember everything about it. This game has a special place in my heart and without a doubt will be on the top 5 games ive played.
The story of god of war is so fucking good.
I first played god of war with my dad when i was about 8 or 9 and ive played through all of them with him and it was always our bonding game and we were so excited when we saw that 2018 was coming out, we would look at gameplays and trailers and constantly check release dates for it but he died reacently and im kinda sad that we wont be able to play ragnorok
he’ll play ragnorok with you in heaven.
no disrespect but was it awkward when there were boobs on the screen and you were with your dad
charechter of kratos is done perfectly.
From a vengeful spirit to an father looking for redemption
16:49 Kratos also spared Aphrodite, Hestia, Demeter, Artemis and Apollo
Apollo dies when Kratos gets his bow though.
Ah maybe this was before Kevin Sorbo went absolutely batshit insane. Neat.
Can't wait for you to do one on Undertale and Deltarune, shit's going to be great
Great vid as always
by far my favorite god of war in both gameplay and story and even bosses
I hope you do Prince of Persia The 2 Thrones one day or any of the other games of Prince of Persia. It’s such an amazing franchise I hope they make a remaster one day!😭
25:09 Holy shit; I’ve known about this game for nearly 7 or so years and never noticed he changed his outfit! Interesting detail!
With you covering GoW now, I'd think it'd also be a good chance to cover the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow games some time soon. It's also quite fitting, with Kratos and Gabriel/Dracul having plenty of similarities.
I haven’t thought about Sharkboy and Lavagirl in like 15 years…I’m honestly impressed there are people who remember it
9:37
We actually got to see this in Ascension, when Kratos was reunited with Orkos at the end of the game.
That said, both are great in their own right. T.C. is fantastic as the rage-induced Kratos. Judge is great as the more calm and relatively collected Kratos.
I know you probably get inundated with game requests but I would absolutely LOVE for you to cover Yakuza 0, if not the whole Yakuza series
Yes this I like
26:16 I've just realised. Whilst you beat the shite out of Zeus, you can see Pandora moving towards the box in the background. Nice touch.
When it comes to voice actors, they both are perfect for what they did. TC Carson was brilliant, and its a shame of what happened to him not even being called by santa monica, but Christopher judge is perfect for the more mature and calmer kratos. both did exactly what they were meant to do, perfectly
I find it hilarious when kratos slowing starts punching people then the camara switches and makes him punching faster
It's my favorite gaming franchise, have platinum all with the exception of Ascension the only that I didn't like that much to play multiple times. I really don't have a preference. I think they had the perfect approach for Greek mythology, a mythology more focused on characters archetypes that places. Having a really focused and simple narrative of Greek tragedy and vengeance, that made a conscious effort given the hardware limitations of the time in telling a fulfilling story in a action game removing as little control of the player hand as possible (the reason to use QTE in boss finishes instead of letting the character do the finish alone in the cutscenes like game like Devil May Cry did). It was the perfect action game from the PS2 era, that got a excellent finish on the PS3.
That being said 7 games with fundamentally the same mechanic got me burnout in ascension. I wanted a change in direction but one that honored what came before. They did that with 4, it has the same elements but mixed a bit the proportion of it on the product. The focus on a more intimate narrative and in a "journey" was a good fit with Norse mythology that is a mythology much more about places (the realms) than people (people are important too, but not like the Greek mythology). Also the tech today allows for "interactive cutscenes" in a much more organic way than could be done on the PS2. So they can have as much dialog as Metal Gear but you don't need to put the control down for 10 minutes or more at a time. Video-game will always be a medium that change with the new options afforded by evolution in technology.
I can't watch this with serious face, everytime I hear the *ting* sound I am crying and laughing at the same time
Fun fact in a book in perspective of mimir its revealed kratos is cursed to be incapable of taking his own life
Ik but what I'm wondering is how and why
@@johnnymanning2952 Idk but it was on a video of factfiend
@@johnnymanning2952 If ur still wondering (i hope u do) i shall spit some facts on u rq. Kratos was cursed by the evil Rage from Pandora's box,he was cursed by living with his nightmares,and the main thing 'incapable of taking his own life' Kratos was cursed..to be immortal by Persephone in Chains of Olympus, he cant go to Fields of Elysium (the judges in underworld mention it), his nightmares came in GOW Ascension by killing the Furies and breaking the oath to Ares. You might not think of it but Pandora's box has many more evils then Rage and Fear there is : Lust (went to Aphrodite), Greed(to Athena cus she wanted/led kratos to kill all the gods and take the power of hope), Gluttony(Went to Hera),This is ironic but the evil Sloth went to Hermes but it makes sense cus he kinda gives up mid fight and lets himself be killed by kratos and the final evil was ENVY that went to Hercules(makes sense) PHEW ALL DONE HERE PLEASE SEE THIS OR I JUST WASTED MY TIME.
@@rando5744 aha your time was not wasted friend some education was done here today and also that makes sense because Persephone did say that his suffering will never end and corrupted gods by the evils also makes sense because none of them were even thinking clearly and should have saw Kratos was too dangerous after killing Hades and Poseidon I think Poseidon was the only one who was somewhat logical he didn't want the destruction of Olympus
Son, why is nobody saying how the stone you get from cronos is basically a kidney stone?!?!?!
Not really, the omphalos stone was in his digestive tract, not his kidney. To get to Cronos' kidneys (which i don't think he has because, well, he lacks a pp) Kratos would've had to take a different path, through his aorta (or inferior vena cava) and then the renal arteries (or veins).
Besides, i think the omphalos stone is the stone Rhea gave Cronos so that he didn't notice Zeus was taken into hiding, so, nope, not a kidney stone. Interesting concept though.
@@dilospino you are absolutely right. It's supposed to be Rhea's stone.
So, I want to know why Apollo was never in these games. He's mentioned (kind of) but never shows up. Since he was Athena's brother, you'd think he would have had beef with Kratos. Also, he was my favorite god. Also also, I was named after him.
I always assumed that he was dead and that Helios took his place
With Gia asking Kratos "do I mean nothing to you?", did she really think/expect Kratos to easily forget/forgive/brush off what she did/say to him earlier? I mean, what she says to him before disposing him, I don't think that someone like Kratos would forget/forgive/brush off that easily, even I picked up on that months ago when I played the game for the one time I played the game. Also, with 18:15 I never picked up on the idea that that tune you play is the God of War theme. Also, huge pain in the rear for me to do, it took me probably more then 5 Times to do. Edit: also, the thing with the fixed camera and some hating it, while it is true that I do hate the fixed camera, but, there are are times in the 2018 game that I wish there 'was' a fixed camera or an option to switch it to a fixed camera, Because, frankly, there are times that the user movable camera gets to the point where it becomes a huge pain in the rear. Edit: ok, looking back on this video, I had a thought, the model that the game developers used for pandora, I'm not saying she looks ugly, but in My perspective/opinion, the model really doesn't look good nor did it age well at all. Edit: ok, coming back on this video roughly 4 or more months later and noticing the dead pool reference mentioned by the narrator, I do think that Kratos is just this games version of Kenny from South park, where Kratos dies and comes back later angrier. Edit: with what I mentioned about with the option to switch the camera in the God of War 4 (or maybe 7 depending on how many games you count in between God of War 3 and the 2018 revision) was that I wish that there a setting that allowed you to toggle between locked on and user rotatable camera, because in certain instances such as fights, I definitely wish that that option existed. Edit: 7:02 I never even noticed that ares was there. Edit: of coming back to this video again, with what I said about Gias line about "do i mean nothing to you?", i think when Gia said to Kratos about him just being a simple pawn and nothing more, that and I think at that point Kratos realized his mistake about bringing all the titans back from the past and that Gia quickly betrayed him and put him on the back burner in terms of priorities really got to him. Also, with what the narrator said about the fixed camera and what I also mentioned, at times in the 4th 2018 game, I do wish that there was a in menu toggle option to switch the camera from being a 360 user-controlled camera to a fixed camera on the fly, because I ended up finding myself fighting with the camera at times, more so in fights/battles where the player has to focus on the fight and not fight with the camera as well. Edit: 13:17 ha ha☺️, good point. Edit: 20:50 I think I killed a few birds in the video clip you provided failing to understand what I was supposed to do using the blades.
Played the remaster of this too, gave some perspective on the puzzles in 4 since I was playing in reverse.
The minigames were interesting in concept but annoying in execution, especially with the sparse checkpoint system.
That said, defeating Hermes was *especially* satisfying when I finally got the rhythm down.
I have enjoyed every GoW game I've played. The original games tell this amazing story of a man who was wronged by others and himself, and seeks revenge, while the newer games speak of a father trying to attone for his past, knowing that he can never forget it. It's just such an amazing series that I hope everyone gets to try at least one.
He also doesn't kill Demeter, Hestia, Artemis, Apollo (replaced with Helios), and more. We know Artemis and Apollo exist in this mythos through the first game and alternate skins.
Apollo isn't replaced with Helios - Apollo has his own statue in Acension, they're separate people.
@@umbrahime3923 both are considered sun gods in Greek mythology, but they went with Helios over Apollo when he is more well known.
Original trilogy made me laugh at how ridiculously over the top it was and how (let’s be honest) cartoonish Kratos became as the games went on. Sequel series made me cry with how real Kratos felt given everything that he did. What I’m trying to say is, both series represented their respective eras in video games to a tee.
7:50 still the most satisfying QTE button press ever!
I enjoy all the God of War Games but I prefer the og trilogy
congrats on getting a sponsor man, totally deserved, i hope ur channel gets more exposure cuz ur vids is the shit.
I love that last line you gave us
"Drink water, drive the speed limit, and love one another.. Pizza!"
This was one of the first games I bought with my own money growing up in high school when it had just released and let me tell you, it was one hell of an experience.
It’s going around that the new game is gonna be 40 hours long so a whole 20 hours extra of story hopefully that means more epic boss fights
@Christian Stewart yah from what I’m hearing at least & the venom actor said the new Spider-Man game Gonna be huge too.. I think it’s good cause we gotta A) get a ps5 which isn’t cheap & B) gotta pay 10 more dollars for each new ps5 game
God of War has always been one of my "copium" franchises.
There are too many franchises out there that poise themselves as mature or dark, but ultimately will cower in fear of a higher ESRB rating and end up looking pathetic. GoW4 managed to retain some degree of "real one" vibes, but ultimately it yielded on the sex department.
(no, I don't need some stupid minigame, just wish characters didn't drop the subject cause of Atreus when a sizeable chunk of the sidequests and sometimes even the main story focus on Atreus' coming of age)
His mother just died at the start of the game, and by the end the world is literally ending. The birds and bees talk is probably pretty low priority to [not being horribly murdered].
or edgy kill the mc
To be completely honest with you, I really would like to see (and play of course) a GoW game like the OGs where Kratos is extremely brutal and full of rage. The Kratos in GoW 4 is a mature one, which is fine, however the younger Kratos has a whole other charm to him. I legit can't express the way I feel regarding the subject, I just want to feel the same way I felt back then man
IMO I think it's because younger Kratos was a unique character. He went from a traumitized kid who failed to prevent the kidnapping of his brother to a great warrior who swore to never lose a battle in his brother's name and was actually a really good dad and a husband to then becoming a depressed servent of the gods after he was tricked into killing his family and even had to abandon his daughter a 2nd time in order to save her soul, then transitioned into a vengeful spartan after he found his mother and brother only to lose them again and after the events of GOWIII, he tried to find forgivness for his actions and redeem himself
