We welcome a range of posts, from serious posts about the Arkham games, to gameplay and screenshots as well as Non-Arkham memes and shitposts as long as they follow Yeah I’m pretty sure bravery is a broken hidden mechanic in the game , I was talking to someone about the Breton and the klad and he mentioned that after the frontier update horses in general became more skittish but apparently the klad is the least likely to buck you off in the face of any kind of danger but goddamn it it all seems anecdotal, his klad is a motherfucking chad who isn’t Okay so let’s forget about the first encounter, not for any “who would beat who”, we have made it clear that Kratos wasn’t tryna kill Odin, Odin not tryna kill Kratos, Kratos got a good chunk out of Odin and Odin managed to bind Kratos and Atreus and Kratos and Atreus didn’t LOOK like they were trying to break out of it, u mention the mask, hence being why Odin wasn’t trying to Exactly. also faurbati means cruel striker which suits kratos personality. exactly, kratos was given godhood by athena and he regained godhood during gow3 but godhood doesn’t make you a God of something, people don’t understand, that when you become a god, whatever your professional at, is what your the god of, and u gain dominion over what title that is, for kratos, he’s a bringer of war, and apocalypse, which is what the omega symbol stands for I did a lot of exploring with main story sprinkled in and the interaction between Atreus and Kratos is beyond awesome especially during Kratos' story time with Atreus on the boat.

He acknowledges exactly what kind of person he is, and says “that has nothing to do with my capacity to do good now, only the context of it”. acceptable but also disappointing as there is a lot of wasted potential. showing that kratos could've easily killed him from the moment he landed the first punch on him. They can definitely keep the God of War IP going but to rip Kratos from this beautiful ending would be tasteless for the fans AND the writers.

After killing Baldur they gonna put out a hit on Kratos a la Smokin Aces leaving him no alternative but to rage on I have a feeling Atreus does die as is with Ragnarok (death match vs Heimdall) and that sets Kratos on his next journey into a different pantheon; one that might have a lazarus-like story to bring back Atreus. This might be the end of Kratos' story, atleast by playing as him. I think they are just hinting that Loki/Atreus will be the downfall of the Aesir gods/initiator of their version of Ragnarok. All three Kratos vs Baldur fights were consistently good. These stories are usually twisted, funny, and actually pretty wisdom filled some times. I just think that Ragnarok was pretty underwhelming considering the hype. You can add or take away from a story however you like. He's the horse who wanted revenge and ended up a slave to the gods. Current Kratos IS NOT stronger than Prime Kratos, who possessed the Blade of Olympus and the Power of Hope (Which he lost at the end of GOW3, therefore weakening him by a great deal) You forget that The Blade of Olympus was used by Zeus to end the great war, and the power of hope is a power stated to be greater than the evils from Pandora Box.

Garm, Hirst and Mist, Nidhogg Imagine if all the games were actually real and they just wiped his story from history, Kratos is the reason we don't hear anything from the gods anymore.

A lot of people have said this already but my theory is the other pantheons are now very concerned that Kratos has now killed off two of the biggest pantheons, so now they’re all coming for him, two ideas I have is that Egyptian mythology will be coming after Kratos first, taking the fight to Egypt, where Atreus will be and they’ll reuinite For 1, Kratos was a victim of fate, despite his attempts to defy destiny. The game painted the picture of a broken man, aching for release, broken by his past and the burden it put on him.

So… I think him having another child would be fitting. Called him Thunderbolt (because the game won't let you call it DJ Horsecock for some reason, smh) had the highest horse bond with it. Kratos' relationship with Pandora was cool insofar as Kratos began to have parental reflexes with her again, even though at first he wanted to sacrifice her for pandora's box, over time he was willing to postpone the means of his revenge because Pandora reminded him too much of Calliope and he became attached to her.

He knew that because he could talk to it). kratos goes back in time, gets the titan gods and comes back into the present time, Kratos literally only becoming more powerful within time, as it’s stated in the audiobook that kratos could feel his godhood essence slowly returning to him while holding the blade of olympus when he first retrieved it, so kratos is literally getting more Phantasy Star is a video game franchise that began in 1987 with the release of the first game on the Sega Master System console. Well i was open for it to be tyr(in 2018) but i believe it was kratos as shown by shrine in ironwood, the iconic tattoo was there, and it showed(i believe it was loki's dialogue but i could be wrong) that father died fighting Thor, there's Thor on right hand side and even kratos believed it was about him, so did Loki, so did angrboda and so did Eventually, we may see that the kratos lineage will lead to the extinction of the pantheons and thus the creation of the modern world, where mythological creatures are believed to be fantasy. Actually it became Odin's personal horse. When GOW 2018 was announced, I expected it to be a one-off story that just happened to take place in Midgard for the sake of mixing things up (also because Greece is pretty much devastated at the end of GOW 3), but when it became clear that it was the first chapter of a new story, I fully The writing in this game is absolutely brilliant. Space might give him an edge with FTL teleportation, but Kratos could probably adapt to that and maybe predict. Thor vs Kratos 1 is literally better than the either Baldur fight. That's why Atreus can talk to animals (like when they met Brok for the first time, Atreus told Kratos to throw his axe into the trees because the Brok's camel or whatever it was was afraid of something that was there. He tries to avoid it. To format spoilers in comments: >!your spoiler here!< (no spaces) will look like your spoiler here. Kratos wins until Thanos has either of those stones. It gets on my nerves when people keep following actual mythology word-by-word to try and explain or 'correct' the story of the game. Kratos knows The story in game (and title of this post) specifically state Kratos claims to have met Aesop, which would be impossible if this weren't a game about a demigod who ascended to divinity, killed the entire rest of his pantheon, fathered another demigod, and went on a quest where they reanimated an Irish fairy-man's head. Greece has been the setting for the first fifteen years of the God of War franchise. The same gameplay where Kratos can lose to a random dragur and also kill beings that can rip holes in space. Something like this, but obviously better written would be pretty neat imo. Kratos only fights if he has too. There isn't any everyday moments, funny conversations, or anything that makes Faye feel like anything but a plot device to me. Loved every step of the journey Ares made sure that wherever he goes a piece of him is embedded to kratos, signifying his once loyalty to the war god. Kratos has been a father before. This post is trying to resolve the middle step, there is no obvious point in GOW3 where Kratos becomes a god again, but I think by looking at the very end of the game closely we can see how. Kratos and Freya leap into action, but their weapons barely do anything. That's the beautiful thing about being a creator. It has created earth itself and now I am going to kill it. So in the playthrough I'm currently watching, Kratos is telling Arteus stories in the boat on the Lake of Nines, and he mentions a story of a horse, and the horse wanting to kill a stag, but not being able to do it alone, finds a hunter and they both kill the stag, but the hunter won't let the horse go, and so the horse sacrificed it's freedom. It’s the story about the horse and the hunter, and the quote when Guilt-Athena taunts him: “I may be a monster, but I’m not your monster”. Kratos has no reason to ever go back and the developers should not contrive one for him to do. That’s nearly two decades. A few I’ve actually heard randomly before. Prophecy spoke of a Marked Warrior that would bring about the end of Olympus; the gods thought it was Deimos, Kratos’s brother, and tried to kidnap him. They obviously opted out to use this though One that stood out to me is when Kratos is telling the story of the horse that became a slave to get revenge, and Atreus asks if it was worth it, and Kratos just quietly says, "It was not. It's been clear from the start that Kratos is an insert into these stories and that he is a massive driving force which can change entire mythologies. Loki had the power to shape shift, so its likely that Atreus will end up getting his wish! I think Kratos has to have another kid to continue the series. Most likely the blades will remain with kratos until the day he dies. He then flings Mjölnir with the Blades and leaps in to stab his belly wound. By the way, Loki was the female. Having Kratos survive, despite all the foreshadowing, just to have a secret picture of his wife be discovered, felt disappointing and unfitting for the narrative. And there’s no Gaia to stagger Poseidon so Kratos could do a follow up attack. I could imagine one of them reach out to other world's god and ally them against Kratos (maybe celtics and japanese, since, if I'm not mistaking, they 're represented by the symbol on Tyr murals). They could of used this and created any story they liked to restore Kratos back to his former glory. So when Kratos finally handed his ass over to the Man and saw this mural, it was his endgame kingdom come--- literally. EDIT: Kratos himself said in the last game that he would let Atreus kill him with no hesitation and so would any good parent. The Norse games heavily imply that controlling your rage is far better than being completely bloodlusted, multiple examples are Kratos in god of war 2018 telling Atreus exactly this, Freya being complimented for this by Kratos, Atreus learning how to control his transformations by controlling his rage and the best example kratos describing both Because in that moment Kratos realized that Faye knew what was gonna happen and was guiding Atreus all the time. The franchise is known for its role-playing games that take place in a sci-fi/fantasy universe with elements of space travel and futuristic technology. The lore certainly attracts some gamers, and the story, but the crux of the fun is the gameplay (whereas games like GoW are also gameplay heavy, the story is much more a selling point) But here is what is bugging me the most: I feel like the idea is that "Kratos doesn't know how to be a father, so he is clueless about how to interact with Atreus". Kratos attempted to rescue him but failed, and vowing never to falter again, became that Marked Warrior. 383K subscribers in the GodofWar community. he yeeted kratos across midgard for baldur, yeeted again to tyrs statue for magni, killed him for him personally, and tried to yeet mjolnir at him again for modi (it failed but still). Plus even if Kratos swings at Poseidon, his core wouldn’t be exposed because there’s no Gaia to pin Poseidon so Kratos could attack it.
