Thank you all for watching this video! I can't believe so many people have watched my reaction to this, even though I have seen that people don't consider this to be the best recap, I still enjoyed the humor the person put into the recap, and I thought it gave a decent background even if they did did talk really fast 😂 anyway thanks again for watching!
you can search and Read god of War:fallen god comic book it is about what happened after the gow 3 as u know kratos not died and he wanted to escape his past also there are few comic books about gow in norse mythology too in these comic books kratos learned to control his rage that's why he became calm and reasonable person :D
A number of details are left out like how the priestess of athema that cursed kratos to carry the ashes of his wife and child was actually the shape-shifting leader of the furies who were in league with ares's scheme to overthrow olympus using kratos
This man definitely absolutely fudged the explanation of the ending. When Athena asked for kratos to give everything to her. As kratos who served the gods for so long and losing trust kratos thought Athena would use the powers selfishly he found the only way is to kill himself and give those powers to mankind and the world directly rather than through Athena.
I was thinking the same thing. There were a few moments where he messed up the explanation
Nah you guys are totally correct. I played each game on release day except GoS and Ascension. But maybe we're just such GoW nerds we need to nit-pick to ensure it's purity down to the last detail. I don't see it as nitpicky, it's absolutely necessary lol
@@frenchynoob Its a fact
He Spark noted tf outta the story. Lol
Yes, but actually no. He did it mostly to spite Athena. First reason to impale himself was to commit suicide, hence when he said, "My vengance, ends now." He meant that the last person he needed to kill to get his revenge for killing his family is himself. Truly a Greek tragedy.
"You will always be a monster."
"I know... But I am _your_ monster no longer." - Kratos, Destroyer of Cars
11:13 That's why he's so protective of Atreus and why he panics in Ragnarok when he finds out the bear he fought was Atreus. He thought he'd killed another of his children.
Now you know why he doesn't want Atreus to know his past
He is a monster
@@HTV315 but he is athenas monster no longer
@@moisesmartinezmorales5885 and now he has become more than a god of war
if you look closely, in GoW 2018, you can see a giant scar running along Kratos spine, where he impaled himself with the Sword of Olympus at the end of GoW 3
Yes. I remember thinking that was so cool they kept all those details. I was actually very impressed with the 2018 game I didn't think they'd be able to pull it off but I'm so glad they proved me wrong. I still think 2 & 3 are the superior GoW games but the 2018 game was about as good as a sequel that released 8or so years later with an almost completely different combat system, and still feel like it's predecessor as you can get
Both sides
@@MasterKombatBro no the scar from the front on the stomach is from zeus impaling him
@@moroent1003 it's literally through and through. And the dude was impaled through the gut 4 separate times
@@MasterKombatBro the scar isnt on both sides no matter what you say
Audience: "We are trying to make you want to play God of War"
Mirandalorian: "..You succeeded"
An exchange between Mimir and Kratos, "I'm dangling from the hip of the bloody Ghost of Sparta!" "Do NOT call me that." Now you know why. It's not a badge of honor or respect. It's his greatest shame.
As shocked as you were at the revelation of Kratos' parentage; it is worth remembering that most of Greek mythology is based on Zeus getting his freak on with the mortals.
Greek mythology is mostly just Zues going "yeah but can I put my dick in it?" To be fair.
Zeus is weird and apparently crazy hørny
If he's able to bang his own sister, no other woman is off limits.
@@soullessenderlox239 he’s also technically a rapist according to some of the interpretations of his mythology, being a god doesn’t mean that you don’t need consent.
@@Tim7318-3 Well yeah, not surprised there's a version of Hercules out there where he used his super strength to rape women
You know, most reactors don’t like to pause or go back to rewatch things, and I rly appreciate that you actually do both of those things. I’d much rather a reactor go back if they missed something then just power through confused
thank you for saying this!
His past trials of overcoming impossible odds is why he's so confident he will find a way to defeat thor and Odin
I want a deimos moment after Odin tries to talk or manipulate him into rage. A true Zeus inducing anger
Just to make it more devastating. His mother is actually cursed. After her mother told him that his brother is still alive, she turns into a monster and forced kratos to kill his own mother, not only because his mother becomes a threat but also to end her mother's misery.
She only transformed because she told Kratos who his father is.
Her?
Recommendation: If you're thinking about dipping into Greek Mythology in your free time, I'd recommend the Percy Jackson book series. My mom had bought me the books, and I ignored them until I didn't, and suddenly I was sucked into this amazing modern day take on Greek mythology that felt relatable, and endlessly creative. Loved mythology ever since.
Percy Jackson is the shit
I personally study the mythology itself without going through with adaptations.
@vibeking1995 that's great, we read some of the original myths in one of my early English courses. It was fun knowing tidbits of information, like being familiar with Ambrosia and having a better understanding of what the gods represent and how they function. I made a friend in that class because he mentioned Charon's role in Hades, and I'm like, this sucker read the Percy Jackson books. Anyway, I think those books did an amazing job of bringing the myths to the modern world, though there are certainly some liberties they take in how that's done. I think you could appreciate it and should give it a shot. If you play games, do you like God of War? I imagine Marvel's Asgard leaves much to be desired, considering how wildly different it is from the myths.
@@210rebelboy I've yet to play the God of War series, but I plan to someday.
I'd like to clarify something from this video. When Athena told Kratos to kill Ares, she didn't say she'd take away his nightmares or memories, she said the gods would forgive his sins. But, the conversation itself did give the impression that they'd take his memories. Big difference.
So cool to see your reactions to the Kratos story! Definitely still recommend playing at least the main GoW 1, 2, 3 games when you can, because there was so much backstory and so many awesome moments this summary wasn't able to cover. So, the games still aren't spoiled for you. If you need help tracking down the games or consoles, super happy to help!
Getting all of this info during gameplay was mind blowing to me. Mind you it was a 10 year process. But to have this as an alternative is good too
I feel like you should've picked a different video regarding the story of Kratos because the video you picked skips some important lines that would show even more on why Kratos is so angry with the gods. Example, the video you watched just brushed off Kratos' mom just dying but in actuality, he was FORCED to kill her because she turned into a monster from a curse placed by the gods.
If you wanna know a better DETAILED summary, just look up " History of Kratos". Its around an hour long and does a better job summarizing the previous games.
The beginning of the video actually already says a lot. Odin and Zeus are very much a like. Like Freya said talking about Odin "- but like all his decisions they are driven by fear." out of fear of his death Zeus sent Ares and Athena out to capture "the marked warrior" only to bring about his own demise along side the demise of the Greek pantheon. Amazing that.
Something to point out about Zeus in the God of War series: he is actually somewhat in the middle as far as being good and evil. He was concerned about the marked warrior prophecy, but prior to the initial opening of Pandora's box, he actually liked Kratos enough to intervene enough to help him against Ares (he digs an exit out of Hades for Kratos while disguised as the gravedigger in the first game). When the evils of the box are released, he and the other gods barring Athena (at least initially), fall prey to their fears and become extremely paranoid about everything. Kratos' rage didn't help matters much, but there's actually an unused voiceline by Zeus in God of War 3 that was meant to be played when Zeus dies and the fear from the box is released from him, and that voiceline has Zeus apologizing to Kratos for everything. The ultimate tragedy is that had the gods not been corrupted by the evils from the box, they'd have handled Kratos a lot differently (such as for instance, releasing Deimos to be in his care, or actually talking things out with Kratos, or even getting his family out of Hades). Zeus and most of the other gods were imperfect and messed up in a lot of ways, but they didn't actually hate or dislike Kratos. Zeus' past mistakes as a father to Kratos caused everything to happen the way that it did, along with Ares' shenanigans such as making Kratos kill his own family (which is a references to Hera causing Heracles/Hercules to kill his family in the original Greek mythology).
The recurring theme is that the gods (both Greek and Norse) don't really know how to approach family matters very well, and their choices tend to lead to worse problems that catch up with them over time.
Hahaha Miranda, OMG I love you SO SO much. You're freaking amazing. Much love from Australia.💖
Thank you so much for putting this up. I just finished God of War yesterday (immediately started a new game + today, I'm obsessed). I haven't played the other games so have no idea of his full back story
If you ever get the chance to play them, I'd recommend it
Wow watching this video brought back a wave of Nostalgia 🤯, I haven't played the First 3 God Of War games in years and they were truly awesome games my favorite of the 3 Is God of War 2 🤘🔥🔥, also congratulations on 20k subscribers Miranda 😊🎊🎉
Yes. I salute you friend there's just something about GoW 2 man. I agree I honestly think both 2 & 3 are better than the 2018 release but there all great games. But GoW 2 just idk.... It just has that "something" in it I can't describe it but I know you know what I'm trying to convey lol
Kratos' growth is wild, dude went from "blades of chaos goes brrr" to shouting "BOY!" every 3.5 seconds
16:50 Kratos the destroyer of cars.
*This is my new head cannon*
How.....HOW did I find this channel I'm looking through my search history, my watch history anything and yet here I am I subbed your reactions and videos are adorable
To be clear, Athena never promised Kratos that they would take away his nightmares. She said "the past that consumes you will be forgiven". "We promised your sins would be forgiven, and so they are, but we never promised to take away your nightmares". That's a key element that the video maker cocked up. I think you should honestly just watch the cutscenes of 1, 2 and 3 to get the best experience without playing them.
EDIT - Upon getting to the later portions of the video.....or yeah, you can play them. That certainly works.
What?😂 She acted like she means that she manipulated Kratos.
fun fact: Sparta was one of THE HARSHEST environments for boys to grow up in, and men were often sent off to war.
It was also a "matriarchy" state.
However when men returned they were given a lot of power and land for their years of service and were expected to marry as quickly as possible.
meaning the older you were the better off you are.
fun fact #2: Boys in Sparta were expected to bully the weaker boys to help them toughen up, Kratos can be seen doing this before his brother is taken [they did it not out of hate but love as the future battles expected of them were life threatening].
also if your wondering where I got this info it was from "that mythology guy1" on TH-cam who has a series on god of war as well as Sparta you should check him out.
@20:22 yeah your missing out on bonus stuff like the bullying scene and other things like the "mini games". XD
just buy a ps3 you can get all the games for that system and its like 50 bucks
I love his back story that really makes the 2018 and ragnorok versions mean more. You truly understand more this way its epic
totally disagree with you. 2018 and ragnorok would not exist if it were not for the hype surrounding shows like "Vikings". Not saying norse myth is bad, or good for that matter. Just saying kratos is a spartan warrior who belongs in the realm of greek myth.
@@galacticcaveman4045 Actually Cory Barlog expressed an interest in the Norse and Egyptian pantheons as far back as God of War II. If I’m not mistaken, his original idea was for each new entry to include a foray into a different pantheon with God of War II being the first Norse entry. I don’t remember if it it was all supposed to happen with Kratos or if it was going to be with different characters, though. My point here, however, is that branching out into other pantheons has been the plan for a long time and it has nothing to do with a TV show that was literally still being made at the same time.
@@chriswhitlock6601 As per usual, the first game(2005) was the best and had nothing to do with cory barlog
@@galacticcaveman4045 Best? Best at what? Combat? Clunky and outdated af. Soundtrack? Nope, 2 and 3 is better. Story? Its good, but I prefer Ghost of Sparta.
Saying its the best is laughable. Sounds like nostalgia to me.
As someone who platinumed and beat every gow to the hardest difficulty. Gow1 is definitely not the best.
@@galacticcaveman4045 Aside from him being its lead animator, sure, it had nothing to do with him. I wasn’t talking about which game was the best. I was saying that as far back as God of War II (which Cory Barlog directed) eventually switching to the Norse and Egyptian pantheons was the plan. You have to keep in mind, man, the ending to God of War (2005) was pretty final because no sequels were planned so, from a business standpoint, when the sequels were green lit they probably weren’t too keen on taking the kind of risks that switching to a different pantheon that early on would entail. They’re far more likely to want to keep the same formula that made them a bunch of money so I don’t doubt that any experimentation Cory was attempting was shot down and by the time 2018’s entry rolled around with the series long established and Cory back in the director’s chair, Kratos was already the game’s mascot and synonymous with the series. I doubt they would even let him make a new game without Kratos front and center now. I don’t think Kratos interacting with those pantheons was the original plan, but given how the series has unfolded that’s where we are now.
A few key corrections:
-Kratos abandons his daughter in order to save her from perishing with the rest of existence. If not for that Kratos would have let the world be destroyed by Persephone.
-Kratos had hope in him since GoW1 when he opened pandora's box back then. Athena wanted it for herself and be the one and only true god. After repeated lies and betrayals when Kratos "kills himself" that released hope into the world for all.
Wow!!! I was watching your livestreams a year ago when you had 10 to 20 watchers. Now you have 27k subs and 90k views!!! So awesome. You deserve it. Congratulations.
Have barely even started the video, but I just have to say that "The Mirandalorian" is a brilliant bit of wordplay. Love it.
“Great oaks, the destroyer of cars.” 😂
Holy shit I just watched my mid to late 20's fly by with that recap. The part when the narrative, Miranda and Kratos all said "no" at the same time when Athena tells him Zeus is his father, Lol
Hello Mirandalorian! I love your reactions! The way you get excited for games is exhilarating, you have a passion for games! I love it 💛
It's actually wholesome seeing people react to Kratos' past in the first few games. He really does have a great story.
“I Didn’t expect violence from God Of War.” Hilarious
what I like about the god of war series is how it breaks down Kratos. you see he was raised to be nothing but a warrior, locking away his other emotions, a weapon that lived only through love. and when that was taken away, you get to see the results of that rage. the results of having nothing left but rage. and how he was mistreated over and over again, he became the monster they all feared him to be. and in the new games, he's just trying to be better, trying to live again, to be a person again, to be a father again. I really got into the series with the new installments, but I love how Kratos matures. I love it
There's a few crucial details missing in the recap:
- Ares was (ironically) driven by his desire to succeed Zeus and take over Olympos.
- The Gravedigger is actually Zeus in disguise, and directly helps Kratos in the first game.
- Kratos ends up meeting Persephone as a result of him trying to rescue the gods from a ploy by her and Morpheus (the primordial god of darkness and dreams).
- Kratos doesn't just kill the three main gods (Zeus, Hades and Poseidon); but Hera, Helios, Hermes and Hephaestus, as well as his half-brother Hercules. He even takes down Cronos, the titan father of Zeus.
- Hephaestus is the creator of Pandora, and only tries to deceive and kill Kratos to protect her.
It physically hurt to see this video skipped Kratos destroying all of greece and just how far he fell, killing fucking everything he interacted with
I do recommend you to play all of the GOW games even though you just watched this recap, there's a lot that he didn't talk about or shortened as much as possible to fit 6 whole games in a 15 minutes long video
also, if you have any interest, there's a bunch of GOW books that talk more in depth about the story of the games, extra details and Kratos' journey!
“Return my son or you may meet the god I once was.”
Kratos' life is quintessentially Greek: getting repeatedly screwed over by the gods. The only difference between him and other Greeks is that he eventually got back at them. Big time.
Fun fact: the God Of War game from 2018 was originally suppose to take place in Egyptian mythology instead of Norse mythology
I need to play the entire Greek series of God of War.
Long story short, they all had it coming. That said, I feel like Kratos’s guilt comes from the innocent lives he took before after and after Ares came into his life. Remember in the 2018 game when he sad to Atreus, “ I killed many who were deserving and many who were (not)?
Finally, you know, I hope now you will get the full range of emotions from this amazing game
I really hope they remake/remaster these games for PS5. It will be so much fun and introduce these iconic games to a new generation of audience whose first game in the series is GOW 2018.
Greetings from Mexico, it's great that you're going to play the Greek saga Miranda, this story is brutal, they even want to make a series of GOD OF WAR
Poseidon saying "YOU CHALLENGE ME MORTAL A GOD OF OLYMPUS"
still gives me goosebumps
You should react to "Raising Kratos" after you finish God of War (2018). It's a documentary by PlayStation about how they rebooted the franchise. Cool behind the scenes stuff!
I 2nd this motion!!!
PlayStation have a lot of cool docos. I'm here for all reactions lol
*gets to the end of god of war 1*
No wonder Kratos hates the gods!
God of war 2/3: hold my beer
This man refuses to be killed off 😂
Miranda: "I'll have to go and play the other 3 original games."
Me: "Hah! There are SIX games, darling."
Your channel name is epic lol love it
Excluding Ascension, Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta, Kratos goes from aggressive in the first game, to angry in the second game, and then at the end of the second game throughout the third he is absolutely raging. The cliffhanger from 2 to 3 in terms of the instalment and the PS3 was something else
The thing you need to know about Kratos in the original Greece God of War Games, is that he's a very emotional man. He is almost always, over the top, exhaustively angry. Where he's so pissed off that it's all that's keeping him standing and all he can feel. Even pain is nothing to his rage. But if the rage goes away, it's because he's in a very rare moment of comfort, or because the grief and self loathing has taken hold. Because under the anger is nothing but misery. Misery, self-hatred and the kind of sadness where suicide seems like a sweet, gentle relief.
Am enjoying the reaction.. as a person who played GOW 1, 2, 3..
but not other versions on handheld 'console' since it is inaccessible for me back then..
Hopefully to be able to play all of them in sequence in the future.
16:38 her joy was short lived 😂. I feel you
Yes, the games are fantastic... the story, graphics, battles, myths and so on... But the soundtrack of every game are absolutely epic, specially the GOW3 into, sometimes I play it before a work out to pump me up. Just another reason to play all the games.
The video you should be reacting to is "Full story of kratos". That has the best version.
Gravedigger : :Death! The destroyer, of world"
Subtitle : "Dead! The destroyer of cars"
This a very summarized version of Kratos story, it is so deeper when you actually play the games( 1-2-3 + 2 expansion(Ghost of Sparta and Ascension) and go throught the twist and turns. Plus the games were at the time ground breaking both in it hack and slash gendra, but also introducing greater then life enemies. If you can i do recommend you play them (they arent that long each (maybe 10-12 hours play time each) and they will give a a greater understanding of the references appearing in God of War 4 which are you now playing. Enjoy your reaction and hopefully future onnection you ll be able to make to upcoming twist and turns in both GoW4 and potentially Gow 5-Ragnarok.

This is the perfect time for you to see this based on where you are in the story
Video: The boy is not Kratos
Her: I need subtitles if I'm gonna watch this.
The subtitles: The boy is not great oaks.
Now you know why he became so modest in the 2018 game.
16:54 🤣🤣🤣🤣bruh, the destroyer of what!!!? 🤣🤣🤣
Kratos, the destroyer of cars
But...what about my car's extended warranty?
thankyou so much for the video hope to see more like this
Since you watched old history of Kratos you got yourself a new subscriber.....
Great reaction. Yes, this man endured so much, and god and goddess used him (didn't matter their sex all gods were selfish). In true Greek mythos the gods were pretty bad. It absolutely sickened me that he had to wear his wife and daughter's ashes because the gods are just that sick. But what I love that the love for his daughter and wife did keep him from losing all humanity. Showing that love is a powerful weapon to. What I love about the 2018 one is now Kratos is a DAD. He is trying to raise a son now alongside of being a Spartan. The scenes in it are so touching at time where you can see Kratos trying to raise a man, but also struggling at time not to just console his son. It is so beautiful. Something you don't get in a lot of games. Also, while the thought hope was kind of odd it is truly powerful. As what kills hope. Nothing. Despair can overwhelm but never destroys hope.
no youre not alone with the whole subtitle thing
So glad you did this before finishing up GoW 2018. Some parts are even more grim adding to the torment Kratos has to endure but they didnt mention in this summary. Like when Kratos is reunited with his daughter in the Elysium fields thanks to Persephone. To save life you have to push your daughter away while shekeeps trying to hug you. They make you do that as player
You need to play God of war 2005 to truly understand the pain he went through. THE MUSIC. GOW2 and GOW3 are icing on the cake
"he just stabbed her in the BOOBS" god i love when people discover Kratos' backstory 🤣🤣
I am with you on the subtitles. English is not my first language but even shows in my own language I put on subtitles.
Hi Miranda! I'm new to the channel. Awesome video by the way! You should also add Watch Dogs to your very long gaming backlog cause why not haha. Look forward to your next video! 😁
Kratos: Destroyer of Cars
*Ryu takes that personally*
Oh this is PERFECT timing, considering your next GOW episode… no further details lol
I actually got to meet and take a picture with the voice of Ares *Steve Blum* at my first con.
Hey Miranda glad to see you catching up on the Trilogy, but there are actually another 3 games in the series, Assenccion which is prequal to first game and the two spinoff games which filled out gaps in between games, so Chains Of Olympus was in between Assenccion and Original. Ghost Of Sparta which filled in gap between Original and GoW 2. Personally I have played all of them myself so I'm a huge fan of Franchise, but if you catch up on story is all you need to know, I would only recommend you play GoW 3 as it perfected the previous formula of how the gameplay was before (2018) and definitely had some of the coolest boss fights in all of gamings history. Sorry I went on so long if you do read it 😅
"There's a difference between knowing the path, and walking the path".....
Morpheus, 2199 (Kinda).......
There’s technically 6 games in the original God of War Greek* timeline.
God of War Ascension
God of War Chains of Olympus
God of War
God of War Ghost of Sparta
God of War 2
God of War 3
If you do choose to play the original games in chronological order, this is it.
Edit; added the word Greek when I realized it’s all one big timeline.
His anger is a blessing and a curse without his need for vengance he would have become a completely broken man reminiscent of tyr.
"Ares and Athena" - "I'm not good with names", or mythology from what I gather.
I like how in the subtitles it says great okes and not kartos 😂
lol the backlog is the ultimate nemesis. I still have 2 years of backlog at least.
I'm pritty sure you can play all of the games on ps4
By chronological order God of war Ascension, God of war chains of Olympus, God of war 1, God of war ghost of Sparta, God of war 2, God of war 3, then the 2 new ones
The video was fine as a refresher. I definitely think this video was made for people that have played those games, because a lot wasn't mentioned.
And not all of that was from God Of War 1-3, some of those were PSP, and other games like that.
But I think you would be just fine with only playing 1-3. I recommend them greatly. They are very different games than the newer ones. But, they've always been cinematic, and the stories are good.
Salah Oussaid 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ 4:33
What I love about the original triology is how he lost his humanity and hope again, slowly. Before the events of gow 1, he was a tool, during gow 1 he was a tool, but he had hope that could, with the help of the gods, surpass everything, gow 2 is about the change of his revenge, now Zeus, but in gow 3 he doesnt even care about anything, just destroy all in his past, because, if everyone wants to stop him from killing Zeus, they should die as well, so he destroys the world. Also, about Krato's power: gow 2 is particular because he lost all his powers at the start and, with close to any help, he become all mighty, almost killing Zeus, because Gaia couldnt give him power from tartarus, just guidance (the flame he gets by killing Prometheus), and Atlas helps him a little, but thats it, in gow 1 all gods gave him a bit of power, just like ascension and chains of olympus, and in gow3 hes just all mighty, he could have killed Zeus from the get go, just like he did to Poseidon (almost as powerfull as Zeus)
God of war remastered (think it's the 3rd one?) is on the psn store if you were interested. I never played originals either, but from watching you play this I decided to replay the game properly and have been addicted to finding everything. Might try the remastered one even though graphics aren't gonna be good
A crossover between "God of War", "Heavenly sword", "Percy Jackson" and possibly "Prince of Persia". Can you imagine? I already have. Timeline and all. The essential thing to remember from this timeline is that the Greek Pantheon conquers most of the world's pantheons (which leads to a greatly altered version of the "Percy Jackson" saga). Oh! And Kai is responsible for saving Deimos, among other victims of the Greek saga. Despite these kind acts, she becomes the Goddess of Discord alongside Kratos.
And before you ask... no. I don't know if I will even make this fanfic an official saga.
I would say that GOW chains of Olympus and GOW ghost of sparta and GOW ascension storylines are for sure more important than everything that happened in GOW2. They add a lot to GOW1 and GOW3, and for sure GOW 2018
I don't wanna agree because GoW 2 just had something going for it that makes it the apex of GoW... But you're speaking of story events and as much as I think GoW 2 may just be the best I have to be fair and say you're correct. As far as where the story is currently at during 2, Chains and GoS are more important and even more emotional story events.... May we stop there? No more kicking GoW 2 in the ribs. It's starting to hurt me now lol
@@abunchahoopla4392 I like GOW2, I even think the boss fights are the best in the whole series, the gameplay is very good maybe the best too, the soundtracks are amazing too, but the story lacks in comparison to GOW1 that was more story driven and showed a more compelling kratos that was not driven by rage and his goal was erasing his memories not killing ares, in GOW2 we just have 1 goal, find the sisters of fate go back in time and kill Zeus. Is very simple and direct to the point. But for sure to me in gameplay, boss fights, the rage of titans mode R3 +L3, soundtracks, GOW2 is the best in those points. Is funny that GOW2 and GOW3 are the games responsible for people think that kratos is not deep and just a rage monster with nothing more. But in GOW1, ascension, chains of Olympus and ghost of sparta we see a different kratos. And in GOW 2018 they focus more on his human logic and reasonable side aswell like those games.
when she thinks the start (3:13 in her vid) is all 3 games at once when it all were just cutscenes from multiple games
Athena never said she would take his nightmares away. She said he would be forgiven, which he was.
The only mistake the sisters of fate ever made was allowing Ares to answer kratos' desperate call for Aid.......
There are few things was not mentioned here. One was Kratos actually killed his own mother because she turned in to a monster just before revealing who was Kratos's father. I dont think it mentioned how Kratos helps Helios and saves him. BTW there are 2 Greek gods who are still alive. 1 is Aphrodite, She actually helped Kratos in GOW 3, and asked some fun time in return. Aphrodite being Aphrodite . and Other Greek god who is still alive is Artemis. She appeared for a brief moment in GOW 1, giving Kratos one of her weapon to help defeat Ares.
EDIT:
People think of Kratos as one dimensional character. They think all he cared about his revenge and who is just a brute. But anyone who played GOW 1 and attentive to the game they will know, at first Kratos was not looking for revenge. He was seeking redemption. First thing he ever said was "The gods of Olympus has abandoned me. Now there is no off" and tried to kill himself. Thats not an action of a vengeful person.
There is some stuff this guy forgot to mention.
1 Kratos mother didn’t just die. Kratos was actually forced to kill his mother.
Because Zeus had hidden her away and put a spell on her, that if she reveals that Zeus is Kratos father she will be turned into a monster.
So she tried to tell Kratos who his father is but was turned into this terrible monster and Kratos was forced to again kill another member of his family because of the gods.
2 he didn’t really go into how incredible it is to defeat the sisters of fate, as the sisters of fate are the ones controlling everyones fate, future and death and can also control the future and change the past.
Even Zeus feared their power.
They said Kratos would die and tried to change the past by killing him there.
Yet Kratos defeated his own fate and death, that is just crazy.
I remember when atreus got angry lightning and thunder would struck. So he also acquired his grandpa Zeus's powers along with Kratos Rage to.
Ahhh yes Kratos the destroyer of cars
