Fun fact: kratos being nice, talking to Baldur, giving him a chance to leave shows development AND also comes from a custom in ancient greed called xenia, or sacred hospitality, basically they would never turn away someone at their home unless the guest violated it first with violence it's also why he allows thor into his home

[@my.name_00]

What Baldur meant in their first interaction. "I thought you would be bigger." - Cuz he believe he is looking at a "Giant" he was told he would find in that house. "Long way from home, aren't you." - Baldur thought Kratos is from Jotunheim. "Oh, you already know the answer to that." - Referring to Giant with their clairvoyance. "Your kind is supposed to be so enlightened, so much better, so much smarter." - Again still talking about Giant with their gift and wiseness. I love how it was left so vague that at first, it makes us thought that Baldur knows that Kratos is from greece, but that is not the case.

[@dungeonguy88]

@@walkingbiohazard6518 It's implied that Fay had set up those marked trees you see Kratos chopping down at the start of the game. Specifically, she set them up as magical wards to prevent Odin and his minions from being able to find them. Fay specifically requested from Kratos that he use those particular trees for her funeral pyre. He probably didn't know it, but when he cut down those trees the magical ward was probably broken. And that's what allowed Baldur to finally hone in on their location. So, in short, they knew generally where Fay, and by extension Kratos and Atreus, was living. But the magic she tied to those trees kept Baldur and others from finding out exactly where they were.

[@RageCreati0n]

Well, considering that other deities can wander into other realms like this, it would make sense that they would at least be aware of other pantheons of Gods out there. As far as I’m concerned, Baldur does know he’s a God of Ancient Greece.

There’s a prequel comic that shows Kratos just going out in the wild to try and restrain himself. When wolfs start to attack him he just stands still and only dodges til the wolfs leaves him alone. Then some trolls roll up on him and decide to try to eat him. He takes some of their punches before getting ticked off which leads him to beating like 3 trolls bare handed. When he gets home Atreus says it looked like he had a good fight but Kratos just says he failed today to keep his rage in check. So pretty much for at least ten years everyday Kratos would go out in the wild and purposely refrain Homs from fighting

According to Cory Barlog, this is the most powerful Kratos has ever been. And according to the novelization, Kratos has never felt anybody as strong as Baldur. So that first punch must have been a huge “holy shit” moment for Kratos, as it was for all the people playing. Pretty crazy how Kratos still came out on top against his strongest foe yet, who was invulnerable. The fight with Thor is going to be insane.

[@MKIS_33]

pretty sure kratos said that baldur was the toughest fight for him because of his invulnerability not because he was the strongest yet lol... baldur kept coming back... testing kratos's patience and strength like no one else... also baldur can't be the strongest because that is one of the main reasons freya put the spell on him in the first place... the prophecy of his ''unnecessary'' death and how small and weak he was born is why freya was drowned into fear... that first punch was a surprise because both of the guys were holding back... and none of them were sure what they could do... they were testing each other throughout he entire fight until kratos overpowered him... he would have died like three times already if he wasn't invulnerable lol... that is when kratos not even going all out... no way baldur is stronger than zeus... zeus's counter part in norse would be odin with his manipulation and thor because of his brute strength... kratos vs thor can't even imagine that... hope it's brutal af...

FALSE According to Cory Barlog Kratos is very rusty at the start of the game which is why he has trouble with Baldur. Cory has NEVER stated Kratos is stronger in the new game,on the contrary he has called GoW3 Kratos the raw epitome of strength and said Spartan Rage is similar to that level. He has also implied many times Kratos has degraded physically Yes there is that time he stated GoW4 Kratos would defeat his older counterpart but he later clarified thats because of Spartan Rage and him being much mentally stronger and wiser and knowing his past selfs weakeness The strongest version of Kratos is with the power of hope and next is True God of war giant Kratos with the god armor when the olympians wouldnt challenge him unlike in GoW3

@@newhybrid101 No. Kratos is rusty. That's all there is to it. Gods get stronger with age. It's just that Kratos is no longer imbued with rage. End og GoW4 Kratos > GoW3 Kratos. The ability "Spartan Rage" is the constant state of fury Kratos was in during the trilogy. Kratos/Cratus is the God of Strength in Greek mythology, his strength is tied to his rage. Since he was always rageful in the trilogy, his strength was unbounded. Spartan rage is his ability as a god. Zeus has lightning, Poseidon, water, ares, fire, Kratos, rage and fury. In GoW4, Kratos is displaying similar, if not, better, feats to his Trilogy self WITHOUT Spartan Rage. He beat Baldur pretty easily in the last fight compared to his fight with Zeus and Baldur KO'd the world serpent in 3 blows. The world serpent is strong enough to destroy beyond literal infinity as shown by the battle between he and thor. Remember, trilogy Kratos is ALWAYS in his spartan rage state in a way. Older Kratos has learned control and now can hone into that rage at will. But, he's already killed Norse Gods WITHOUT it. So! GoW Trilogy Kratos

[@cubancucumber]

What I find the most incredible about this entire sequence is how different it feels and how the meaning of this entire encounter is completely different once you start New Game +. Baldur shows up actually looking for Faye, he had no idea Kratos and Atreus even existed. When he refers to “your kind is supposed to be so much better than us” he was actually referring to the Jötuns, not the Greeks like we originally are made to believe because again, he had no idea who Kratos was. He was sent there by Odin looking for Faye because she was a legend in the halls of Valhalla due to her feats prior. And where they first made us assume Baldur went there looking for Kratos so he can fight him and “feel something” from the challenge, he was actually there to get his ability to feel again by Faye as she was the key to Jötunheim and their magic could’ve healed him. Now that’s what I call amazing writing. Red herring in the most perfect way. The hindsight is insane.

Yess this epic scene

I like the first time I said it. Made me want to get up and leave my own home

[@taegotkash]

Me too so freaking dope and epic

[@pedroibarra431]

A masterpiece of a fight, sets the tone for the entire game, music, dialogue, action, everything’s perfect.

[@jliang2257]

The dialogue between and Baldur and Kratos is amazing, and even more so after knowing that Baldur was actually talking about Faye instead.

4:23 baldur saying Pointless means he will die at the hands of Kratos, and prophecy of him dying a pointless death

[@hazy4366]

no it doesnt. hes just saying that to taunt kratos. ur looking too deep into it

[@behindthecookie8653]

He’s just saying the fight is pointless because he knows that Kratos can’t kill him or hurt him in any way.

[@sarojandongol1482]

Baldur's dialogue just makes so much more sense when we find out later that he wasn't actually searching for Kratos and just assumed that Kratos was the giant. Also you just simply recognize his dragon after the first playthrough.

[@potatochips9284]

12:30 The way Kratos gets up after all this chaos tells us he’s tired of doing it. He just wants to be a father, a decent one atleast.

[@cosmicdude8282]

Also because Baldur was pretty freaking strong, I mean, he punched Kratos like 10m inside a solid rock

[@igustibagusananda7706]

@@cosmicdude8282 I think he shoulder bash him. Not punch him into that rock. I like that because physically shoulder bash use all your body weight. Which makes that attack very powerful.
