I love how you change combat style into more aggressive based on the dialogues and cinematics. This is not you just showing off, this is how Kratos would fight if he was real. That's what I love most of this channel, amazing content as usual GBG. Loves from Italy
Well isn't how he would fight. This whole actual fight Thor's complaining because he is holding back which is totally what kratos would do. The only way he could beat Thor would be by tapping into his anger to get stronger which is something he outright refuses to do. He would straight up a rather die then use his anger as a power source again. But when Thor threatens kratos's son he does get angry punches Thor in the face and that's what Thor wanted. just to see the power that he hid. I don't know why people forget that kratos's true God killing power is locked behind his anger.
@@gabrielgordon8450That’s because Kratos was holding back. Notice the moment Thor said that Odin had plans for Atreus, Kratos not only broke free from Thor’s grip with ease, but also knocked one of his teeth out. In the final fight, Thor was at Kratos’ mercy and Thor wasn’t even close to killing him that time around.
@@GameBreakerGod this is nothing against you at all but don't you think it's silly that the entire game can be played and in fact SHOULD be played without using a mechanic it was designed with? Again, nothing against you at all, your skills are amazing, but I have some issues with the way the combat works.
@maskgrave bEcuAse rOlL is HArD? No tf it's not noob. Platinumed this game in 45 hours. The fighting mechanics are so easy to master. And if rolling/dodging hinders you, you clearly can't play the game to the fullest using all mechanics. Step up 🤣🤣
The devs and the graphic designers need a medal. Because the moment Thor mentions Atreus, you can see the Ghost of Sparta spring to life, like if you look at Kratos's face his eyes just widen and become fiercer, that's the same look he gave to Zeus. It's small details like these that have a huge impact on the scene.
It’s the same moment that happened in God of War 2018. Baldur mentions “whoever you have stashed away in that house” and Kratos explodes with rage knowing Atreus is in there.
This. Thor is only satisfied at seeing the real god of war after he mentions atreus In the 2018 game, the first spartan rage is only after Baldur threatens Atreus
Nah, Kratos was Shadowboxing and Thor just kept getting in the way of his fists. with this level of skill, Kratos would rip Thor in half like a piece of paper.
I always liked that Thor acknowledges Kratos is holding back, and is even able to tell. No one else acknowledges this or probably even knows (besides Odin of course). Freya likely doesn't know judging from the dialogue we get with her throughout the game.
2:20 this was awesome, timing your axe throw with the his hammer throw. I wish there was a cool mechanic where if you timed the throw right like that, both the weapons would collide and stay locked like in the cutscene. Great showcase!
One of the coolest things I've seen in this game is watching Mauler play the last fight against Thor and accidently use the time slow ability right as Thor called back his hammer and then raced mjolnir back to Thor side by side.
He was under orders from Odin to not kill or be killed by Kratos. Thor may be weaker than Kratos, but he isn't a coward. No doubt he wouldn't have left unless either he or Kratos were dead otherwise.
Thor didn't have to run away he just wanted to see the power that kratos hid. Sure full power kratos could probably beat Thor but they destroy half of midgard in the process. But at no point in this game do we see kratos's full power.
The combat is so good. I can only imagine how much more fun I'd have if I could pull off the dodging and combos you do. The game is moving so fast it looks like it's about to glitch out, haha! Amazing stuff! Please do some tutorials on how we can pull off some of this stuff!
I jus realized Thor said the frozen lighting looked familiar in the first fight because of his fight with Faye in the side mission in the crater Jesus I love this game 😂
TBH...I would have preferred if the frozen lightning is but one of the many clashes between Thor and Jormungandr. Besides, the clash between Thor and Laufey kind of defeats the point of her reputed elusiveness that left Thor frustrated to never have a chance to fight the warrior.
6:49 As soon as Thor mentioned Atreus... Kratos goes berserk like in the past... One of the most Badass moments of the whole game. I loved Thor as a character and the all empathy thing, but ngl I would have liked to see more, in the first fight he flies away at the best moment... and in the last fight he "surrenders" personally the fights with him have never satisfied me, Maybe Kratos is too strong for him? Or maybe doing everything in a single chapter didn't allow for that... idk maybe I'm wrong. Overall nice tho, combos as well.
@@jalengholson8595 Yeah but in the second fight when he can kill him, Thor gets worse than before. Also counting that in the second fight Thor goes into berserker mode... this means that in the first fight Kratos was really holding back, like sleeping standing up lmao
With all the talk of "seeing the true monster" and "seeing the god I once was" , I was hoping for a big cinematic scene of Kratos going full-rage. Like his regular rage , but just able to break the wall of Asgard or throw Thor Ike Thor does him.
Agree. I was waiting for it the whole game, it was a let down. I understand the pacifist direction they're taking but they could have had that moment. I prefer Kratos as a character who can destroy you, but chooses not to, which he is but isn't shown enough
Legitimately thought up until the point Surtr actually transformed that he was just going to imbue Kratos’s blades with his powers and it’d be up to Kratos to cleave down the wall with his godly strength and fury. Still alright with how it played out, but I was so ready for the blades of chaos to burn the wall down.
1:31 Normally, Thor has the angry face when reaching for mjolnir, but because of the dialogue in the background, he is smiling instead. I like this more than the intended effect, because it shows Thor having a lot of fun while fighting Kratos!
It's cool to know that even when fighting lore accurate Kratos, Thor still manages to merc him only to bring him back to fight him some more. Really shows that Thor was also very strong lorewise.
I think it's safe to say Thor, in terms of pure strength, that is just sheer ability to break things and hurt people, was stronger than Kratos. Kratos might be the better fighter, but absolute power? Thor's got him beat. We only saw a little bit of it, but his mastery of lightning really shouldn't be ignored. It was apparently enough that even Heimdalr realized he couldn't dodge it.
@@RaptorJesus i’m gonna be fr with u with everything kratos has done and how it’s known kratos is holding back thor can’t compete with a full power kratos
that spin shield bash and axe throw retrieve, was so fluid and creative. Bravo to you and especially the development team in combat... incredible. i can't wait for PC port.
I don't feel like we saw Thor in his best in this game. Don't get me wrong, he's portrayed damn straight perfect. I just wish we had gotten to see him at his best in battle. Hopefully we'll see more of Mjollnir from Thrud in later games. There's just so much creativity to be had with that weapon's lore
@@baggedbread Yeah I agree, they did a great job with him. And you all have a point. He spent so much time drunk, hung over, healing from the frost ax injury from Kratos, poisoned by Jormungander. I'd love to see them make a God of Thunder series about him.
Now if he said he KILLED his son........ Freya: "Where are Thor, Odin, Heimdall, the Enherjar, the Valkyries.......Freyr?!?" Kratos: Oh *points at the limbs spread out* over there, over there, up there, over there, deep down there, way tf over there and absolute oblivion.
Bro your gameplay should be used by Santa Monica Studio themselves to promote the game. If there was a "real" and "correct" way to play the game, you are the one who does it. Absolutely insane bro, keep up the good work!!
Its so amazing to me that devs will account for anything and everything a player does, and have characters acknowledge it (doing certain strange actions, taking too long, going off the beaten path, looting items where it'd be weird to in-universe, using Spartan Rage against Thor), but they fail to include any consideration or acknowledgement in the slightest for "what if the player is actually good at the game?"
i just realized that thor goes back to certain positions for each cutscenes on purpose cuz that's where the cutscenes will start when you dealt him enough damage. That's so cool
I have searched far and wide over the internet, and I can safely confirm that no one plays this game quite like you, truly few come close. Thank you for this experience. Your fan from Uganda
Damn, I had forgotten about Thor's "This feels familiar" line, that's some good foreshadowing. Also I love how he was satisfied the moment the "the Ghost of Sparta is waking up" type music swelled up, almost like he could hear the soundtrack
6:17 I swear of that chorus got any more epic I was gonna start floating off the ground. The longer this fight takes you the more epic it gets. They REALLY make you feel the suspense
You Made The Fight So Synced, You Can See He Put Thor And Kratos In The Perfect Spot For The Cutscenes. Good Job GBG, Keep Being The God Of War At Games.
Not really that’s wrong and not lore accurate at all Kratos was weaker than Thor at the start and even when he holds back less only did basic damage nothing impressive to Thor. The final fight Kratos doesn’t hold back anymore cuz Thor is threatening his son but he isn’t letting the rage take him over cuz he wants to change the outcome, they had a lot of even clashes and Kratos barely overpowers him it wasn’t a stomp at all, he won cuz he damaged Thor’s hammer hand. The fact Thor can even kill Kratos temporarily shows he isn’t so inferior. And let’s not forget that if Kratos didn’t change himself or how he went about the fight the prophecy said Thor would of killed him so no Thor isn’t massively weaker at all. People need to stop downplaying the Norse Gods and dick riding the Greek Gods, Old man Kratos isn’t weak.
@@LeaderOfTheLostSouls one of the devs if I'm not mistaken (forgot who) said that if kratos didn't hold back he would be one shoting every enemy in game, also the reason why kratos is slow and tired is because of him trying to hold back the rage. Not even trying to meat ride or nothin, it's just that kratos is holding back massively
@@1nonlyAV That’s Cory and it’s referring to the random fodder enemies not the bosses cuz he’s talking about how game mechanics and balance is needed to make the games fun and challenging even when it isn’t always lore accurate just like struggling the chest and doors and etc. So no you can’t use that to downplay the gods in the Norse games, the lore disagrees and Cory disagrees on them being weak even says current Kratos is stronger than his younger self, there’s more that backs up Norse being stronger as well if people actually pay attention but not many do and even less know how to power scale, so that’s not true at all.
4:41 Frozen lightening happens and then Thor : this feels familiar , Kratos : what , Thor : don’t matter ,,,, loved this so much as Thor is referring to his battle with Faye in vanaheim causing a frozen lightening in the crater as well back then, dayum the crater sidequests were so damn good I wish that I erase my memory of the game and then experience the whole thing once again ;””
5:59 i like the detail in hjs move set the first attack(yellow) had less force cause of thors weaker swing along with his waist and hand arm coordination but the second attack right after(red) Was unblockable or parriable due to his better swing cause of his arm and waist coordination + the fact that hes also relying on mjolnirs weight since its gravity is focused on its end instead of being equally heavy on all sides just like an axe 6:50 also love how kratos grasps thors arm when he mentions atreus as if hes saying "why'd you mention my son?" And once thor reveals odin has plans for atreus he grips tighter and releases himself from thor to swing that devastating punch after comfirming atreus is in danger
5:43 i love this exchange right here, the use of the sfx and the music lining up, it makes it feel like at this point they're just letting loose, just listen to thise meaty punches connecting.
spoilers: 4:40 “this feels familiar” just realized he’s referring to his fight with faye in that one destroyed place with another frozen bolt of lightning
I have one problem with the Thor fight the first encounter is epic its like holy shit exactly like baulder when you first encounter him and then the final fight is like meh will add some elemental effects to these guys and call it a day both Thor and baulder second fights lacked the impact of the first fights other than that this is amazing
Whhhhhaaa baldur 2nd fight was insane with him now feeling pain and finally having his senses back and Freya being annoying lmfao you smokin suttin bruh
at some point in the game every person has felt like they mastered the combat, or are damn close. watching this though, i realize i have a lot to still learn
Wait, in 1:15 how did you frost the axe so quickly in this part of the game? In the beginning you shouldn’t have enough xp to have this skill of frosting the axe after he return to you or after an attack.
My man, I know you from 2018 game, I learned alot from you, I hold my self from release to see your videos, cuz I wanted to finish the game first, and I have to tell you, You are amazing, truly amazing, a game dancer, the Lore Accurate play style is a must for any game, thank you.
4:43 i only now understood why thor said "this feels familiar" thor was referencing faye which means he fought faye because as we know, faye used to own the leviathan axe before kratos
This whole fight he was saying “let me see the GOD OF WAR!!!” And this whole time I was thinking, “no you don’t lmao, just you WAIT till GBG gets his hands on this game, he will show you the TRUE GOD OF WAR” 😂
i love how sometimes he´s calling the axe back and instanty puts it away and punches the animation doesn´t even catch up and just leaves the axe in his hand
Notice when it's 1:14 when he throws his axe and calls it back to him. It freezed too quickly. That's an upgrade only later on in the game you can get. So either he's just so good that he glitches it out, or he upgraded his character before fighting thor
"Don't hold back!" "Afraid to get your hands dirty?" "How were you ever a god of war?" "You should be better than this!" Thor, meanwhile, not getting in a single hit in and having the absolute sh*t beaten out of him.

They dont call you Game Breaker God for nothing. Mans already found a way to break the axe throws while comboing. Amazing stuff
Literally first day of getting the game
I have searched far and wide over the internet, and I can safely confirm that no one plays this game quite like you, truly few come close. Thank you for this experience. Your fan from Uganda
Am I trippin or does that grunt at 5:47 sound a tad bit like Greek kratos or I’m just looking into it too much lol
Nope I noticed that as well, sounds a lot like his old grunts
Damn, I had forgotten about Thor's "This feels familiar" line, that's some good foreshadowing. Also I love how he was satisfied the moment the "the Ghost of Sparta is waking up" type music swelled up, almost like he could hear the soundtrack
I love how old kratos comes out anytime someone threatens Atreus ❤️🔥
Instantaneously like bruh
Bro took "untouchable" to the next level. RIP Thor's efforts 😭
6:17 I swear of that chorus got any more epic I was gonna start floating off the ground. The longer this fight takes you the more epic it gets. They REALLY make you feel the suspense
You Made The Fight So Synced, You Can See He Put Thor And Kratos In The Perfect Spot For The Cutscenes. Good Job GBG, Keep Being The God Of War At Games.
If Kratos actually decided not to hold back, Thor would've been splattered across every single realm
💀💀💀
Not really that’s wrong and not lore accurate at all
Kratos was weaker than Thor at the start and even when he holds back less only did basic damage nothing impressive to Thor.
The final fight Kratos doesn’t hold back anymore cuz Thor is threatening his son but he isn’t letting the rage take him over cuz he wants to change the outcome, they had a lot of even clashes and Kratos barely overpowers him it wasn’t a stomp at all, he won cuz he damaged Thor’s hammer hand. The fact Thor can even kill Kratos temporarily shows he isn’t so inferior.
And let’s not forget that if Kratos didn’t change himself or how he went about the fight the prophecy said Thor would of killed him so no Thor isn’t massively weaker at all.
People need to stop downplaying the Norse Gods and dick riding the Greek Gods, Old man Kratos isn’t weak.
@@LeaderOfTheLostSouls one of the devs if I'm not mistaken (forgot who) said that if kratos didn't hold back he would be one shoting every enemy in game, also the reason why kratos is slow and tired is because of him trying to hold back the rage. Not even trying to meat ride or nothin, it's just that kratos is holding back massively
@@1nonlyAV That’s Cory and it’s referring to the random fodder enemies not the bosses cuz he’s talking about how game mechanics and balance is needed to make the games fun and challenging even when it isn’t always lore accurate just like struggling the chest and doors and etc.
So no you can’t use that to downplay the gods in the Norse games, the lore disagrees and Cory disagrees on them being weak even says current Kratos is stronger than his younger self, there’s more that backs up Norse being stronger as well if people actually pay attention but not many do and even less know how to power scale, so that’s not true at all.
@@LeaderOfTheLostSouls kratos is still holding back? Man you have never played attention to the god of war games at all
Plot twist : Thor just wanted to get an achy tooth removed but no one else was strong enough to do it.
His so good that when Thor hits back during the cutscenes it seems wrong given the context.
😭
4:41 Frozen lightening happens and then Thor : this feels familiar , Kratos : what , Thor : don’t matter ,,,, loved this so much as Thor is referring to his battle with Faye in vanaheim causing a frozen lightening in the crater as well back then, dayum the crater sidequests were so damn good I wish that I erase my memory of the game and then experience the whole thing once again ;””
Immaculate play as always! Thor was a great opening fight, that shit will be remembered forever 🔥
😉 loved this first fight it was so godly!
5:59 i like the detail in hjs move set the first attack(yellow) had less force cause of thors weaker swing along with his waist and hand arm coordination but the second attack right after(red) Was unblockable or parriable due to his better swing cause of his arm and waist coordination + the fact that hes also relying on mjolnirs weight since its gravity is focused on its end instead of being equally heavy on all sides just like an axe
6:50 also love how kratos grasps thors arm when he mentions atreus as if hes saying "why'd you mention my son?" And once thor reveals odin has plans for atreus he grips tighter and releases himself from thor to swing that devastating punch after comfirming atreus is in danger
"You should be better than this" hasnt even laid a hand on kratos
Literally
5:43 i love this exchange right here, the use of the sfx and the music lining up, it makes it feel like at this point they're just letting loose, just listen to thise meaty punches connecting.
Striking between hits is the true mark of elite skill
😉 my bro
spoilers: 4:40 “this feels familiar” just realized he’s referring to his fight with faye in that one destroyed place with another frozen bolt of lightning
I like it when you walk towards the enemy calm and resonable and then beat their asses 🔥
Same bro I love those walks
Impressive reaction speed and fast decision making. You must’ve done a lot of redos for this to happen. 10/10 Lore-wise Kratos
2:49 what if ng+ comes out with the ability to actually evade this?
I have NEVER heard Kratos say “You will join your sons.” That’s really cold, even for the version of Kratos that has held back!
3:09 💀 and gbg took that personally
Haha
"YOU SHOULD BE BETTER THAN THIS!"
*brutally beating Thor without taking any damage*
Your so good at this game bro. I love your style, An extra finger would come in handy 😂
Haha thank you brother
I love how Thor is getting absolutely sauced and is still like “ How were you ever a god of war?”
Kratos was as strong as before( even stronger) but Thor was tough guy
No unecessary movement, Every strike hits 🔥
Game play de qualidade,joga demais GBG👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾.
Obrigado 😢
At 1:29 I like how the dialogue didn’t cut off the when the cutscene played. Made it more cinematic.
I have one problem with the Thor fight the first encounter is epic its like holy shit exactly like baulder when you first encounter him and then the final fight is like meh will add some elemental effects to these guys and call it a day both Thor and baulder second fights lacked the impact of the first fights other than that this is amazing
Agreed.
Edit:
Okay, maybe just the Thor fight. Baldur's final battle...it's crazy.
Whhhhhaaa baldur 2nd fight was insane with him now feeling pain and finally having his senses back and Freya being annoying lmfao you smokin suttin bruh
All baldur fights were out of the world my guy he is hella missed
Yea,more destruction would be nice
@@GameBreakerGodfr baldur second fight is legendary. From fighting on a dragon to seeing him feel pain and the snow on his skin .
at some point in the game every person has felt like they mastered the combat, or are damn close.
watching this though, i realize i have a lot to still learn
This is one the best intro bosses ever
True brother
kratos in cutscenes: weak and struggled against basic enemy’s. kratos in gameplay:💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
Felt bad for thor lol he wanted kratos to go all out but kratos had to spare him both times the embarrassment.
Imagine
"you insult me holding back like this" hes doing you a favor big bro
Lmfao
Wait, in 1:15 how did you frost the axe so quickly in this part of the game? In the beginning you shouldn’t have enough xp to have this skill of frosting the axe after he return to you or after an attack.
Animation cancel. I put out a guide yesterday covering this and more if you want to check it out.
@@Not_Harvard just watched the video, that was sick man. Really nice guide you made there, already left a like
@@daze_0753 Thanks yo. Worked hard on it so I appreciate you checking it out.
I’m gonna make tutorials soon as I finish with the bosses level 1 also still learning as we go if you come to the streams I normally teach as I go
Lore accurate Thor: so anyways I started blasting....
I think he cheatin cuz there was one attack that actually was spose to land, it wasn't guarded or dodged
5:59
it’s s from your shield attacks bro only red attack can hit you out of it
The moment thor clapped his hands 0:05, the power went out and the heater started randomly working in my home
*Kratos doesn't get hit once*
Thor: Did my sons die to luck?! How were you ever a God of War?
Haha
It’s so cool when the lightning freezes and Thor says “this feels familiar” hinting to his battle with Faye!!
3:59
Auch poor Thor xDd
Lmfao
My man, I know you from 2018 game, I learned alot from you, I hold my self from release to see your videos, cuz I wanted to finish the game first, and I have to tell you,
You are amazing, truly amazing, a game dancer, the Lore Accurate play style is a must for any game, thank you.
Thank you so much for your time and supporting all these years ❤️
This fight in new game plus with the spear is gonna be insaneee!
My one and only son 😌 Ghost of Tsushima
Imagine if the dialogue change, When thor mention the blade of chaos, but in new game we probably have? That's can be awesome.
4:40
'This feels familiar' (after the frozen lighting)
He talks about the Freya fight, I just noticed.
Bro playing to fast made the game glitch out the combos Lmao 🤣
Lmfao
4:43 i only now understood why thor said "this feels familiar" thor was referencing faye which means he fought faye because as we know, faye used to own the leviathan axe before kratos
This whole fight he was saying “let me see the GOD OF WAR!!!” And this whole time I was thinking, “no you don’t lmao, just you WAIT till GBG gets his hands on this game, he will show you the TRUE GOD OF WAR” 😂
Lmfao he gon learn
Thor: you seem like a calm reasonable person.
Kratos that proceeds to go Spartan rage without an actual spartan rage:
Never disappoints!🔥🔥🔥 much love from South Africa bro🫡
Thank you
i love how sometimes he´s calling the axe back and instanty puts it away and punches the animation doesn´t even catch up and just leaves the axe in his hand
Lmfao 🤣
amazing, love it GBG, appreciate the good content my friend
I nearly shed a tear the first time I played this. And even now its the same way. Good stuff GBG
One thing I never realized is how right after his GOW came out in the cinematic, he went straight to composed
Notice when it's 1:14 when he throws his axe and calls it back to him. It freezed too quickly. That's an upgrade only later on in the game you can get. So either he's just so good that he glitches it out, or he upgraded his character before fighting thor
"Don't hold back!" "Afraid to get your hands dirty?" "How were you ever a god of war?" "You should be better than this!"
Thor, meanwhile, not getting in a single hit in and having the absolute sh*t beaten out of him.
Thor: That lousy neighbour that tries to sue you for stepping on his grass for an insurance scam
Kratos: you beating his ass in court
