I love these "pass time banters" in the game so much. It really make the characters more whole and show how much they've changed compared to the prequals.
I would've preferred if kratos talked about his old kingdom, like the farmers, peasants, women, children, and old men in Sparta, because warring isn't the only culture the Spartans had, there's also some small cultural things that's also shared between all inhabitants of Greece, would've loved to hear that. He could've talked about his golden armor too and about the blades of Olympus.

@@josephfigues4202 it’s especially neat when you notice Kratos has transitioned more into the strongman build with his more filled in core rather than having a skinny waist like he used to, although they may have done that because of his age it may also be a thematic and stylistic choice too
The fact that they can regenerate means they're already on juice. Now, all Atreus has to do is follow Mimir's advice about picking heavy things up & putting them back down. And frankly, with his regeneration or healing factor, he could practically do it everyday day of the week... unlike us mortals.
Honestly, the fact that Kratos goes out of his way to take good care of his body even when he doesn't need to is such a cool demonstration of his character, especially compared to how some gods don't even bother with maintaining appearances in such a way. It goes to show how Kratos is literally more grounded. He concerns himself with mortal activities that other gods might consider humiliating because it builds discipline and character.
For Kratos, that exercise is like meditation for a cultivator in those eastern wuxia stories. It helps him center himself and focus his body, mind, and will.
Atreus: "When do I get muscles like yours?" Kratos: "When you work for them. Do 100 situps, 100 pushups, 100 squats, and a 10km run every day." Atreus: "But when do I know I'm stronger and bigger?" Kratos: "When you go bald."

The two motivated lines that I heard in this video are "When you work for them and "you better start picking heavy things up and putting them back down". These two can really get you started on building progress and strength within yourself. It's never too late
With a younger son in real life this game almost perfectly captures the annoyance of parenting that occurs when real life son wants something easily and cannot get it. Almost too good of a job. Really quite impressive writing.
Atreus: “Father? When will I look like you?” Kratos: “In what way?” Atreus: “When will my skin turn white like yours? Does that come from aging, or did you do something to make it that way?” Kratos: *sweating uncomfortably*

He doesn't do high rep he does power load. Goes to the snake and asks it to push down on him as hard as it can with its tail. Then he goes until he collapses.
I like when Atreus asks his father if he should grow out his hair, and Kratos says nothing and Mimir gets annoyed because they're both bald and have nothing to offer to the conversation.
Tbh, with the shit that Atreus goes through daily, coupled with the fact that he has the genetics of both a spartan warrior and fricken Giant, I think he'll very naturally be pretty built when he's older, but if he did like maybe like 1-2 hour weight training he'd eefijitely be as big as his dad
Atreus could get build because if his genetics but without working out, he will be tall and lanky. Kinda like a scarecrow so he gotta fill it up with muscle from working out
Reminds me of when Atreus thought he had a beard starting to grow because his face was itchy and kratos said « is it » then Atreus said again « yeah I think it is » kratos said again « is it » then mimit said « are you sure it’s not dirt ? »
Atreaus doesn't need to worry . He does have giant genetics in him , he's still a teenager though so maybe in a few years a growth spurt might not just only give him muscles but he may even be taller than Kratos , given the genetics vs environment factor .
That environment factor thou, I wonder if not revealing his god hood/ giant hood for much of his growing life has lead to him taking on the physical form naturally of a mortal and will just be super late to giant/god strength or has missed the opportunity for it entirely now to hit peak potential.
Faye looks to be around 2 inches shorter or 1 then kratos When Atreus Grows hes gonna be like 6ft10 given both his parents kratos who happens to be 6ft6 and faye who happens to be 6ft4-6ft5

@@brokemono Yeah I was saying full potential since they went on a lot about how the mind configured to thinking it’s mortal when it was a god can cause physical sickness in the first game so I was implying he either won’t physically reach what he may or if he always knew or will but later in life because his mind thought he was a mortal.
@@brokemono I still don’t get how kratos became a full god never played the first games. Watched the whole story thou but think I’m missing context, Ik Athena transformed him into a full god but don’t know how or why and I also thought when he poured his power into the sword of Olympus that power was taken from him so I am confused about that part.
If you got the strength of a god, that would mean it is really hard to gain muscle because you have to practically move a mountain to just trigger the muscle hypertrophy. In that sense Kratos must have done a great feat to get that swole
Why what are they going to do the other one is a literal god and the other is just a man a better crossover would be joel miller and arthur morgan because their morals align better

Reminds me of when Atreus thought he had a beard starting to grow because his face was itchy and kratos said « is it » then Atreus said again « yeah I think it is » kratos said again « is it » then mimit said « are you sure it’s not dirt ? »
Ain't not skipping gym day if you want THIS kind of body BOI.
Also Kratos is BIGGER then he was before so we all know he went harder on those lifts
Makes sense, especially since Kratos was already ripped before becoming a god.
"Boy, I'll tell you how I get these."
"How?"
"Push ups, sit ups and plenty of juice."
"Ok, wait what juice?"
Atreus will end up blonde, with that workout
@@mariovidal5637 ?
@@Crusher888 "Push ups, sit ups and plenty of juice" is a Dragon Ball dub reference. Hence the blonde thing, cause of Super Saiyans and all.
@@mariovidal5637 ooooh
THAT'S GYM MOTIVATION RIGHT THERE!
Homie tryna get swole for Thrud😂
I like how this implies that even though Atreus isn’t a bulky brawler like other Gods, he can still take hits like a champ.
You gotta grind for them gains boi

Everybody Wants to be a Bodybuilder, but Nobody Wants to Lift No Heavy-ass Weights
Kratos - Gym.
Baldur - Calisthenics.
Thor - Motivational videos.
Thor has the body of a strongman
" YOU BETTER START GRINDING BOY"
Even Hercules had to work for his muscles too
even the gods can't miss the leg day
That is all Hermes did
@@michealmcginnis7038 oof
@@michealmcginnis7038 Until leg day did him.
I like that Mimir. “ Pick heavy things up, then putting them back down” lol genius
Kratos: You really want that Spartan Training badly ＢＯＹ?
Atreaus doesn't need to worry . He does have giant genetics in him , he's still a teenager though so maybe in a few years a growth spurt might not just only give him muscles but he may even be taller than Kratos , given the genetics vs environment factor .
That environment factor thou, I wonder if not revealing his god hood/ giant hood for much of his growing life has lead to him taking on the physical form naturally of a mortal and will just be super late to giant/god strength or has missed the opportunity for it entirely now to hit peak potential.
Faye looks to be around 2 inches shorter or 1 then kratos When Atreus Grows hes gonna be like 6ft10 given both his parents kratos who happens to be 6ft6 and faye who happens to be 6ft4-6ft5
@@stealthhunter6998 He's a shapeshifter plus his father is a demigod who got made into a full god somehow? His mother plays in the NBA no doubt tho. In the next games he will be slightly taller than his father, that's my prediction. (My mother is also tall, my father is average and barely matches my mother, I'm taller than both of them)
@@brokemono Yeah I was saying full potential since they went on a lot about how the mind configured to thinking it’s mortal when it was a god can cause physical sickness in the first game so I was implying he either won’t physically reach what he may or if he always knew or will but later in life because his mind thought he was a mortal.
@@brokemono I still don’t get how kratos became a full god never played the first games. Watched the whole story thou but think I’m missing context, Ik Athena transformed him into a full god but don’t know how or why and I also thought when he poured his power into the sword of Olympus that power was taken from him so I am confused about that part.
What's funny to me is that this implies Kratos finds one hour per day to exercise during which Atreus actively chooses to slack off.
"When you work for them."
I love that!
I remember asking my father the same thing. And get the same answer.
Son, you work for them. Muscle are not for the weak.
i mean i get what he was trying to say but every human has muscles
Have i told you about an old Spartan Legend, Zyzzz.....
Music starts playing.
Atreus: When do I get muscles like yours?
Kratos: Do you really wanna know?
Atreus: Sure!
Kratos: Do deeeeeezzzzzz
lmao
No one skips leg day Atreus
Mean while Kratos bulks by picking up the 9 realms and putting it back down
"there's a reason why the mortal have a title call Mr Olympia"
"But baldur was really strong and he didn't have big muscles"
*Calisthenics boy*
Baldur looks like an actual athlete, Kratos looks like a juiced up bodybuilder.
Calisthenics can give you big muscles if you train them for size
Mirmir forgot a step; Atreus needs to eat correctly too
Kratos literally said: Son you gotta hit the gym.
Atreus: Father how can I have muscles like yours?
Kratos: go to gym BOY!
This implies that kratos works out just to look good and I kinda love it
- Father, What was Spartan training like?
- Ronnie Coleman screaming for 4 hours straight, boy
If you got the strength of a god, that would mean it is really hard to gain muscle because you have to practically move a mountain to just trigger the muscle hypertrophy. In that sense Kratos must have done a great feat to get that swole
Well considering he was holding back titans casually that ought to do it
"BOY, I am simply built different"
There's no shortcut Atreus even for a demi god gotta lift them heavy things and start bulking up properly like Kratos 👌👍😉
We need an Arthur Morgan and Kratos crossover
Why what are they going to do the other one is a literal god and the other is just a man a better crossover would be joel miller and arthur morgan because their morals align better
never skip leg day ay
Kratos: BOY!!! here take some creatine
Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder, but nobody wants to lift no heavy-ass weights - Ronnie Coleman
Atreus would have aced Spartan training, he’s already been killing gods when most Spartans younglings begin their training.
this is so adorable lol
"Picking things back up, and putting them back down" This is literally what I say to people when they say to me "what do you do when you're in the gym?"
Mimir basically said hit the damn weights kid
Alternate Dialogue: "Seek Zyzz, God of Aesthetics, he will show you the way, you're gonna make it, boy"
All Kratos done was eat clen, tren hard, anavar give up.
Kratos the God of Aesthetics
