Kratos tells Mimir how he became The GOD of WAR to break his Bondage to Ares - God of War Ragnarok

Kratos tells Mimir the story of how he became The God of War after the Oracle Aletheia had visions of Olympus’s destruction at the hands of the God of War. Wanting to prevent that prophesy which she thought to be about Ares she helps Kratos out with breaking his blood oath to Ares, not realizing that by doing that it would eventually lead to Kratos becoming the God of War himself … the same God of War that would bring about the destruction of Olympus.

[ God of War Ragnarök is an upcoming action-adventure video game developed by Santa Monica Studio and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. It is scheduled to be released worldwide on November 9, 2022, for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. It will be the ninth installment in the God of War series, the ninth chronologically, and the sequel to 2018's God of War. Loosely based on Norse mythology, the game will be set in ancient Scandinavia and feature series protagonist Kratos and his teenage son Atreus. Serving as the finale to the Norse era of the series, the game will cover Ragnarök, a series of events that bring about the end of days, and depicts the deaths of some of the Norse gods, which was foretold to happen in the previous game after Kratos killed the Æsir god Baldur. ]

It's a common theme in Greek mythos, and tragedies. Trying to avoid the prophecy only leads to it. In Ragnarok Kratos comes out on top because he learned to accept his fate and follow his path as he sees best, not overthinking about prophecies that had predicted it.

And because your choices never change, you will learn that Heimdall intends to kill your son in Asgard, and you will do what you do best". Your fate is determined by your nature.

[@justsomeguy747]

Ascension is a cool game, but it feels like a side story, like Ghost of Sparta and Chains of Olympus. However, it brings good character development for Kratos' feud with Ares, long before Kratos truly started his war against Ares' army. Ghost of Sparta is the better prequel in my opinion because it takes place at an important stage of Kratos' life, it has a great story buildup for the sequel, it explains Kratos' wrath towrads Olympus so well, and so on. Ascension shows a better side of Kratos, and I'm glad the new game mentioned this game, but the powers which Kratos attains are less unique than during the Second Titanomachy, which might be understandable I guess, but Kratos still fought a feud with the Furies, and while he had godly magic, his only Godly weapon the Blades of Chaos. Chains of Olympus had the Ganulet of Zeus, which was a great weapon. And God of War 1 was unique because of its storytelling and narration, but the only weapon Kratos recieves, the Blade of Artemis, sucks in my opinion, but he has great abilities and his sword battle with the God of War is magnificant.

When you really look back at the old games it's kinda confusing as to why the Norse gods thought they had a chance, and why Kratos didn't immediately wipe the floor with them.

It's ironic that Zeus feared kratos his son would kill him and take over Olympus, and yet Ares was out to do just that the god of war. But also the prophecy a marked warrior will kill zeus and take his throne is also ironic because if u look at Ares he is also marked. If Zeus never tasked Athena and Ares to take demos and left kratos and demos alone the prophecy might have come true by Ares taking out zeus. But since Zeus was paranoid he took demos which in return started kratos journey to go on a revenge spree killing all the Greek gods and then becoming the god of war while being marked by Ares making the prophecy a full circle and then killing zeus while kratos was the god of war.

Zeus isn't necessarily a very helpful god, but orkos knew of ares' plan to overthrow zeus, that's certainly something zeus can appreciate knowing and this is pre pandora's box.

They keep Orkos alive to tranfer the oath crystal into his body, so even if they lost, they believe Orkos will run away from Kratos to save his own life, and the oath will remain. But Orkos hate them so much for all the suffer they cause for him and Alethia, that he ask Kratos to kill him, break the oath to f*ck up his father Ares' plan.

[@navandozer]

Kratos is like Frank from Always sunny except instead of "so I started blasting" it's more like "so I started brutalizing"

3:34 What huge knockers

[@kalestone7618]

Ascension was a decent game but I wish they had stuck with gow3 design, and just chose ti make him look younger

[@skruffykyle1163]

Great vid enjoyed it the gow games where great

[@arcanefury3666]

Why are you using ascension cutscenes? Wasnt the oracle he was talking about the one with the see through shirt in God of War 1? She wanted to save Athens from Ares and Kratos destroyed Athens in 2. Nevermind the video kept going as i was making edits.

[@michaelprice3040]

Ascensions combat was next level.

[@Cosmic_Deity]

Ascension was cool because it was newer than god of war 3 and so the graphics were better, with younger kratos. It’s actually looks really good

[@BiggusJakeus]

I wonder if Kratos had flashbacks to the torture scene when Mimir said Odin was creative with tormenting him

[@MrOrcshaman]

Kinda feels like the ending of this, how all mortal wars in the future were driven by Kratos being the god of war, that line was made at a time before they decided to continue on the story, have Kratos utterly destroy Olympus, and move to Norse lands to become a god of hope.

[@BigDaddyRic]

Idk why but it was the PlayStation trophy 🏆 that hit hard 😢❤

[@ninjachannel007]

Yes, Furies, break me inside the walls of Hecka-tonkarees

[@nyanffie9905]

the vision Orkkos saw was not all false, it was indeed a god of war that brought down the olympus but in absence of her mother. i wonder if Orkkos regretted that.

[@hogleg8833]

Orcos and mirmir sparkling conversationists

[@xathu-er2zr]

btw, the priestess kratos talk about is priestess he meet in gow 1

[@ikillzombys1]

I forgotten how long Kratos's arms were back then.

[@skullreaper8115]

That titan 😞

[@enigma5014]

wow the boss fight is way cooler and awesome before.. ✨✨✨

[@spectraltheinkling8526]

God of war ascension is cannon!

[@mekdramon]

As much as I love the new games, I miss the world's that they crafted in the original series. They seem so much more mythical

[@Nestor_Sandoval]

We not gonna talk about freya in the boat

[@mfenix88]

Play the game. its not that big of a deal

[@jayblaq2548]

If they plan to make this a movie it should be a series a big bugdet series like GOT

[@CommentDweller]

Bro kratos made such a big change from trying to kill anyone who even talks to him like 1:05

[@sheikdagod9592]

I just noticed that Kratos's tattoo isn't red or even a tattoo for that matter, it's just his natural brown skin color not being covered by ashes. We all had our tint up why to high.

[@danilokovacevic9265]

13:14 read the subtitles!!!!!!!!

[@shanegoodwin5125]

Good looking out I never finished Ascension

[@markninoleona2441]

the whole story of god of war is like "Do not feed anyone you see in need of help, they just need strength to bite you".

[@Deveshkha]

I never knew any of this I'm actually gonna buy all of the gow games tomorrow

[@ShinoKyoufu17]

"I would rather live in truth" "I have spilled enough innocent blood" KrAtOs Is So OnE DiMeNsIoNaL

[@itsbiju]

Whoa, he killed his nephew.

[@ucheozor7871]
