To be fair even in a world where there is definitely an afterlife I'm guessing you only get 1 afterlife once then when you die in that time it's nothing less anyways.
@@dc1842 I'm pretty sure you don't die in the afterlife... Idk about Norse mythology in particular, but in general I think that would kinda defeat the point of even having an afterlife... Because then it would just be another life... Except without the possibility of reincarnating/restarting if you die again
@@dc1842 I thought that was the point... I thought the idea of the afterlife was that this was where your immortal soul would go to spend all eternity once your physical body was rendered no longer functional... I mean, the idea of an afterlife is kinda like a type of coping mechanism anyways... It denies that death is truly the end and it denies that there's no true justice and that not everyone gets what they deserve... It does both of these by judging the souls of the dead, and sending them to the appropriate place (good souls get a paradise, bad souls get a punishment) If afterlife were just another life, there would be no reason to have it... Except for in religions where reincarnating is a thing, because they often technically don't have an 'afterlife' per se Anyways the whole idea is usually that it's a resting place where you can live stress free without fear of injury, injustice, death, sickness, etc... Due to there being two definitions of life, it could be argued either way as to whether an afterlife of this sort constitutes life: 1.The condition that distinguishes animals and plants from inorganic matter, including the capacity for growth, reproduction, functional activity, and continual change preceding death. 2.The existence of an individual human being or animal. I'd personally argue that it nobody ever said it was life... It's *after* life... What comes after life? I guess that depends on your religion or, if you're atheist, your lack of religion... Also, what religion or lack thereof were you raised in? I don't wanna get political or go on a crusade or anything, I just figure it might explain your perspective a little better... Personally, I was raised as a Christian (Baptist), but I'm not particularly fervent, and feel that everyone is entitled to their own beliefs... If the Christian god is real and Jesus as merciful and compassionate as they say, I don't think that he'd send a good person to hell to be eternally punished, just because they believed something else instead of converting the first time they hear someone talking about the invisible magic sky wizard... Also I don't see why Jesus would have light skin like how he's always depicted, he was from the middle East, I'd say there's a fair chance he was at least somewhat tan...
So he's dead but he can't cross over because of the missing piece of his soul. Brok deserve so much more especially with how he went out. Makes sense why Sindri was so devastated by Broks death. Not only is Brok gone but now because Sindri was never able to bring back his soul the first time he died, he can never rest peacefully. Damn I wish I didn't know this 😕
Luckily, there still is hope, since it was mentioned that the last part of his soul could make up for all of the missing parts, they would just have to find the missing part which could be a story for another game
Imagine the next game going to Egypt and then Anubis was like "Ah Kratos! I would like to ask you... Do you know who this sassy blue little guy? He just popped up here and keep speaking endlessly about his brother being an idiot"
More like learning of Osiris, a dead god that was returned after being put back together. If any god could have knowledge saving Brok it would be Osiris,
Imagine if Kratos did encounter Osiris and learn some sort of way to reunite bits of the soul. Then he decides to try and reunite Brok. Brok returns and manages to get the missing part back, but he's still dead. He can't come back to the real world and tell Sindri anything. Unless, of course, There is a hidden side quest that allows Kratos to find something that lets Sindri and Brok have one final moment before Brok enters the afterlife cycle for good. Possibly snapping Sindri out of his hatred enough for him to somewhat forgive Kratos and Atreus/ realize that he played a part in the whole thing by rushing the ritual that caused Brok's soul direction to be lost.

And that’s the part that really breaks ya, that such a great character isn’t just dead but gone completely, Brok’s soul is probably in a state of limbo in the void, never to comeback reborn or be retrieved, but Lost forever.

it would be a nice little callback if kratos said "hope is what makes us strong. It is why we are here. It is what we fight with when all else is lost."
Honestly when I seen brok die I was really depressed to the point I didn’t even want to play anymore but I finished it and did the Vikings funeral, RIP brok a legend smith
@@arbusthurmapoly6049 there is always a way, such games/ movies just like to overdramatize to make it more impactful. Im am sure we will get a dlc. It doesn‘t make sense to finish the game with such an open end and without a cliffhanger.
I seriously hope not. This is way more impactful. Undoing it would just be cheap as hell, and I'd say SMS wouldn't wanna go forward with it. It's a tragic fate, but keeping it and not undoing it would make it hit all the harder.
It wasnt stupid. Its normal. Yall loved him so much. Everyone of us players did too. I wish i could give everyone a hug. Brok died a death that was undeserving.
You know I think there is a possibility he could come back. Maybe not in a body, but this game has shown us that weapons have a form of WILL/soul themselves. With that said, there is 1 piece (albeit a fraction) of Brok's soul still out there. Maybe they could put that last piece in a piece of forging equipment so that the brother's can keep making things together once more. Either that, or make Brok into a cursing magic weapon that Kratos can use constantly cursing at everything Kratos swings at XD.
I'd like to believe that piece you mentioned is hidden within Draupnir and until that weapon is laid to rest he is still with Kratos each and every time he uses her. Broks blessing was not meaningless.
I have a feeling that that is going to be important to the next game, so far most of the minor stuff they got brought up in 2018 ended up coming back in a good way in Ragnarok
I've read about this Luck, also known as the hamingja is a part of the soul that is the quality of someone's ability Basically it ranks how good you would naturally be at something Like someone's stance of power, someone's skill, intelligence, success, wealth, etc. As you can see its kinda different to the modern day concept of luck. I don't think something like what you said would work in the actual Norse mythology but hey, its a video game, they could make it work if they wanted to
You gotta love how mimir literally states outright to Atreus and the players that there’s nothing that can be done for brok or his soul yet you still have people still in denial that brok is gone and there’s nothing we can do to bring him peace
I think it’s the fact Brok is given a oblivion instead of a afterlife that many cannot rap there minds around which frightens them so they have to lie to themselves into believing that he isn’t “truly” gone.
I think its because of the wording, Mimir implies that he is just a soul without a sense of direction. That makes it seem like he could technically still be found
If Brok is denied a afterlife then that means he just stops existing all together… that’s fascinating because Brok can neither rest in piece nor be in pain he just ceases to exist so there is nothing for him to “feel” or be “conscious” of since his been sent to the void.
Sindri isn’t mad at kratos and his son he’s mad at himself he knows that he’s the reason brok can’t rest peacefully had he brought back every piece of his soul I feel like sindri would not be as devastated
Imagine you have a friend who is down on his luck and has recently become homeless. You offer him to stay at your house for a few weeks to get his feet back under him and save up some money. He then invites one of his friends to stay over for a few weeks too, before asking for your permission as well. Then his friend kills your brother. Sindri is mad at Atreus.
When Mimir’s voice become so upset when he said if there was anything they could do genuinely made me tear up. He wanted brok back just as bad as atreaus did and felt worse knowing he can’t think of a solution for it.
Kratos : i have a plan. We will go to greek to go back in time. There might still an artifact i used in my past to change my fate. If it is necessary, we will do it again
Ok but if the original magic of the green lands died like why kratos can't use the other abilities he's gained in the previous games what good would a magicless artifact be
Ok but if the original magic of the green lands died like why kratos can't use the other abilities he's gained in the previous games what good would a magicless artifact be
“Atreus, if there was anything we could do, I promise you, we’d be doing it” You can just hear the pain and resignation in his voice that they can’t bring Brok back.
Just the way Mimir's voice goes when he says "I promise you, we'd be doing it." Conveys not only how torn up Mimir is about it, but how willing he would have been to help Kratos and them do what Sindri once did.
Omg sindri isnt even aware of that. As brok was dying said “maybe if i go back to the lake of souls” and he definitely wasn’t talking about a single bit
When Odin stabbed Brok, I knew they would probably kill him off but even so I literally shouted “NO” At my screen when it happened. There are very few games that have been able to get me to do that
This part of the story is as phenomenal as it is tragic. Sindri will never see his brother again because of one shortsighted and selfish lapse of judgment. Atreus is shattered because he put too much trust and faith in the wrong person, losing someone he cared for as a result. Mimir is helpless to offer any solutions, because he knows the futility of trying. Advice was all he ever had left to give to the world. He can't even do that here. And Kratos sees the lies and carnage senselessly tearing up the people around him all over again.
Just because Odin wanted to know what happened to HIM. He kill killed brok. In that even if you revived his body it would just be a walking corpse. As mimir said. There's nothing TO bring back.
But Atreus has been getting really good at dealing with souls with his Giant magic. I’m really hoping there’s a side quest or even a main quest in Atreus’ solo game/dlc which they hinted, where we can find Brok’s missing soul pieces and unite them for Brok to find peace in his afterlife. It would be a beautiful redemption for Atreus and his official goodbye to Brok since he wasn’t at the funeral😢
Maybe there is a way for the soul to be reconstructed again, in Norse mythology a soul is made of four parts, sindri was only able to get three, but his soul of direction is still in the lake....perhaps there is some way for him to come back....maybe im only hoping a fools hope though....
So...Sindri just couldn't life on knowing that after his own death he would be reunited with Brok and been in afterlife with him, huh? I would understand his actions if there was nothing after death, but they have afterlife, so that makes Sindri the one really responsible for Brok's non-existence.
Hope is a razor blade. It can cut through every dark thought you’ve ever had, and give the sense that everything’s gonna be ok. It can also cut the last thread that’s holding you together once it slips from your grasp. Hope is a razor blade.
Saw a silly comic pic of a photo being taken with the message "He's back", showing a disgruntled Brok, hugged by an overjoyed Sindri. Suggestion being that since Broks soul has no direction, it just returned to where it left from.
You know what would be awesome? If his soul has lost the piece that guides it to the lake of souls, couldn’t the other pieces technically be wandering around aimlessly? Imagine you work together to build something that could draw all those pieces together and put his soul back together with an artificial “guide” part. Even if you can bring him back, at least being able to give him an afterlife.
yo Atreus remembers Kratos' lesson from GoW2018, where he told him to never have high hopes because it only leads to disappointment. here Atreus says it was stupid of him to hope
I have a feeling Atreus will learn some "giant stuff" and be able to find Brok's final soul piece. Its clear Atreus has a knack for soul magic. Who knows what he may learn in the next game.
I smell a fetch quest: fylgja is just to reach the light well, but wouldn't it be neat if each individual piece went to a place in Midgard or somewhere that was especially significant to that specific piece of his soul? And maybe his fylgja is just waiting in the well because without the other pieces it can't cross over?Gather them all together, bring it to the well, Sindri gets to forgive himself, and maybe in the first half of whatever sequel he's an enemy and then he sets things right? Here's hoping, I don't even play GoW I just watch shorts about the spoilers.
Atreus brought this up coz he was feeling guilty that he indirectly caused Brok's death by inviting Odin (whom he thought was Tyr unaware that he was disguised into his home). Plus Sindri's anger against him affected him.

Conveys not only how torn up Mimir is about it, but how willing he would have been to help Kratos and them do what Sindri once did.
Omg sindri isnt even aware of that. As brok was dying said “maybe if i go back to the lake of souls” and he definitely wasn’t talking about a single bit
When Odin stabbed Brok, I knew they would probably kill him off but even so I literally shouted “NO” At my screen when it happened. There are very few games that have been able to get me to do that
This part of the story is as phenomenal as it is tragic.
Sindri will never see his brother again because of one shortsighted and selfish lapse of judgment.
Atreus is shattered because he put too much trust and faith in the wrong person, losing someone he cared for as a result.
Mimir is helpless to offer any solutions, because he knows the futility of trying. Advice was all he ever had left to give to the world. He can't even do that here.
And Kratos sees the lies and carnage senselessly tearing up the people around him all over again.
Just because Odin wanted to know what happened to HIM. He kill killed brok. In that even if you revived his body it would just be a walking corpse. As mimir said. There's nothing TO bring back.
Kratos sitting there like at one point he was literally too angry for the afterlife to keep him down
But Atreus has been getting really good at dealing with souls with his Giant magic. I’m really hoping there’s a side quest or even a main quest in Atreus’ solo game/dlc which they hinted, where we can find Brok’s missing soul pieces and unite them for Brok to find peace in his afterlife. It would be a beautiful redemption for Atreus and his official goodbye to Brok since he wasn’t at the funeral😢
Atreus should have bottled the other pieces of brok when he died so that he could revive him later.
@@SuPaF1SH I’m pretty sure you need all soul parts to store into the marbles
With all these different mythologies clashing as they are one could imagine there would be a purgatory somewhere
Thats probably why sindri is so upset, his brother can't go full circle in life and death. He is in a limbo.
Pandoras words be making waves in my head wnen atreus said it was stupid of him to hope. Hope is all you have now bro.
They need to make a dlc completely revolved around reuniting Brok's soul pieces so that he can have his afterlife.
FYI Baer, the Shambler heals when one of the tentacles use Wriggling Feast on a combo’d hero.
Can’t believe sindri brought him back knowing there’s a afterlife. Bro just wait
Sindri knows he'll never see Brok ever again even in death
That last line definitely hits way harder with full context
I love sled talk
Whatever existence Odin endures at this time…I hope every ounce of what’s LEFT of him…is SCREAMING.
Holding ur hope means ur loves too great
Hope is what makes us stronger, it is why we are here! It is what we fight for when all is lost. 😢

kukri look like if navaja and bowie had a baby
Maybe there is a way for the soul to be reconstructed again, in Norse mythology a soul is made of four parts, sindri was only able to get three, but his soul of direction is still in the lake....perhaps there is some way for him to come back....maybe im only hoping a fools hope though....
The absolute desperation in mimirs voice. He's racking his mind trying to think of something anything. And he can't.
So...Sindri just couldn't life on knowing that after his own death he would be reunited with Brok and been in afterlife with him, huh? I would understand his actions if there was nothing after death, but they have afterlife, so that makes Sindri the one really responsible for Brok's non-existence.
If a Side Mission was abled to Be Created Through DLC We could Hear Brok's Last Words with Kratos and Sindri
Hope is a razor blade.
It can cut through every dark thought you’ve ever had, and give the sense that everything’s gonna be ok.
It can also cut the last thread that’s holding you together once it slips from your grasp.
Hope is a razor blade.
Sindri ultimately kept his brother from reaching the afterlife…
Saw a silly comic pic of a photo being taken with the message "He's back", showing a disgruntled Brok, hugged by an overjoyed Sindri.
Suggestion being that since Broks soul has no direction, it just returned to where it left from.
Hope is what makes us strong
It is why we are here

You know what would be awesome? If his soul has lost the piece that guides it to the lake of souls, couldn’t the other pieces technically be wandering around aimlessly? Imagine you work together to build something that could draw all those pieces together and put his soul back together with an artificial “guide” part. Even if you can bring him back, at least being able to give him an afterlife.
yo Atreus remembers Kratos' lesson from GoW2018, where he told him to never have high hopes because it only leads to disappointment.
here Atreus says it was stupid of him to hope
Atreus:it was stupid to hope
kratos having the power of hope:lolll
Now this is a fate worst than death!
I have a feeling Atreus will learn some "giant stuff" and be able to find Brok's final soul piece. Its clear Atreus has a knack for soul magic. Who knows what he may learn in the next game.
I smell a fetch quest: fylgja is just to reach the light well, but wouldn't it be neat if each individual piece went to a place in Midgard or somewhere that was especially significant to that specific piece of his soul? And maybe his fylgja is just waiting in the well because without the other pieces it can't cross over?Gather them all together, bring it to the well, Sindri gets to forgive himself, and maybe in the first half of whatever sequel he's an enemy and then he sets things right?
Here's hoping, I don't even play GoW I just watch shorts about the spoilers.
“With a soul missi-“
“HAH!”
Three of them feel guilty about it.
Atreus brought this up coz he was feeling guilty that he indirectly caused Brok's death by inviting Odin (whom he thought was Tyr unaware that he was disguised into his home). Plus Sindri's anger against him affected him.
If there is a solo Atreus game I want a section of the game where Atreus finds the missing piece of Brok's soul so Brok can cross over.
Hope is the fire that burn bright. only a fool dares to hope when the odds are impossible. only a fool can defy the odds. be foolish
This was an extra twist of the knife that wasn't needed 😞
Technically they could go back in time to stop sindri from bringing Brok back in the first place but obv that would cause problems itself
Some stories cant have a happy ending
