God of War 2 Retrospective

[@lautiblurre7199]

i love that in the first game, the commentary said "maybe we'll do better next time with more powerful hardware" and all they needed to make this game was a little more time

[@d-wizzel4217]

How do you only have 200 subs? Your stuff is really well done. Great video by the way. I watched KinK's retrospective on God of War and was sorely disappointed in how vague and short it was, so I was especially happy to see someone else had tackeled the same games, and in fact did them far more justice. Good shit man, good shit.

[@MightyNifty]

Thanks so much man! I'm a big fan of KingK's videos so I take that as a huge compliment.

[@fwwaller]

The reason the Kraken shows up is because the devs are big fans of the original Clash of the Titans film from 1981. The Kraken was the final monster of that film, with a visual design similar to how it appears in the game. They even got Harry Hamlin, who played Perseus in Clash of the titans, to voice Perseus in the game.

[@MrTwinlord]

The kraken is referenced in the oddysey. A beast that in an island with pilars. Not by that name but yeah…

[@nappokaikai]

God of wars 2 opening section from Athena to Kratos walking out of hell Proves to be one of the best gaming opening segments

TC Carson voices Kratos, not Terrence C. Howard.

[@supersonicxz1]

Good video, but you got one part wrong being that kratos encountered and dealt with atlas in “Chains of Olympus” not in “Ghost of Sparta”.

[@MightyNifty]

Ah, you are correct. Not sure if that was a typo or if I just got mixed up, but thanks for pointing it out!

[@supersonicxz1]

@Damsen My greek myth knowledge is pretty hazy but could you consider Atlas in the afterlife and/or “not alive” since they we’re basically in Elysium.

[@EbonAvatar]

Quite honestly one of my all-time favorite games. Just absolutely perfect from start to finish.

[@Zubatticus]

This game was my entry point to GOW. I forgot about a lot of these plot points, so this video is a great refresher! I'm definitely looking forward to part 3! GOW 3 is my favorite part of the OG trilogy.

[@MightyNifty]

Glad to hear it! Although the third video miiiiight be a bit more critical haha

[@Zubatticus]

MightyNifty No worries, lol! I mainly enjoyed it for it's violence

[@PrincessNine]

Zubatticus I hope you acknowledge how Athena is basically a different character with a bad actress

[@Roge9]

Honestly, it's a pretty good starting point in the series, I recommend it over the first game because I feel like it has aged better.

[@redwaldcuthberting7195]

My entry to the series too, though, never got to the end of the game.

[@blackbatman3152]

Personally THIS is my favourite of this series and thanks to you i know why thank you for this video

[@GamerMinilla]

So, I know it's not exactly accurate to *actual* Greek Mythology, but pretty much the main reason the Kraken is there is to be a callback to Clash of the Titans, seeing as in the movie, the Kraken was Zeus' lackey. A blemish in consistency with the actual mythos, to be sure, but a nice callback nonetheless.

[@ofcrgry]

[@MightyNifty]

Thanks so much! That means a lot 😁

[@bearieroblox6451]

Everything in this game makes so much more sense after playing ghost of Sparta, for example the reason the big reveal wasn’t that surprising to kratos about Zeus being his father is because he already knew that which he had learned in ghost of sparta

[@cryptidsgaming1518]

This was my favorite of them all even after god of war 3 But then I learned to love god of war 3 more. But this is still one of my favorite games of all time

[@MrYuleyule]

Same here. My second best game of all time and my favourite Gow ever! I just love this game. I'd love to be able to play it on my ps4

[@JojokimVT]

I think the reason why Kratos doesn't react to Zeus being his father is because he already knew about it since Ghost of Sparta

[@DatLazyBoi]

@J.D. But chronologically,that game takes place between GoW 1 and GoW 2

[@dawdeuce250]

My thought was it didn't really matter because he literally killed kratos son or not it like oh the guy who killed me was my dad. Now I have even more drive to kill him.

[@gbdeck200]

Yay retrospectives Went and looked at each game before the newest one and it made me appreciate those points Kratos is just so nicely fleshed out that when I hear new Kratos praise to those things I realize how little people recall him Nice having more side characters and depth, again not new but forgotten in general consensus It does nicely as a sequel and it's style, art and design and world building It all well done even now I'll miss this style of GoW, it did a good amount well and it's lost a lot in ps4

[@scribnerti]

God of War 2 did an amazing job following the first game, but I was incredibly surprised with the PSP games. I hope that you get a chance to dive into those, even if it's just a step back after analyzing Dad of War.

[@MightyNifty]

Yeah, I'd honestly love to, but man that's a lot of hacking and slashing, so maybe after a while I'll come back to them and Ascension.

Awesome video, man. You clearly put a lot of thought into its construction and editing.

[@MightyNifty]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it :D

[@Negruzzu]

Beating the game on titan mode was so satisfying, not really for the new game+ unlockables but the sense of mastering even the most minute timings in combat was so gooood. Even tho it is not really a difficult boss, the Theseus was like top 3 in terms of difficulty for me because you are very early in the game with low health and mana and 2 hits can drop you, while also having low damage because of the same reason; i don't know if it was intended this way but i only managed to kill him pushing and maneuvering the Minotaurs into the Ice Spikes that came from the ground as i saw it damaged them quite a good amount, while dodging, learning his stick rotation QTEs and perfect blocking his other attacks. The sisters although hard to battle didn't feel as frustrating as Theseus fight, mainly because your far into that story-point, due to beating the game multiple times you know already all the Gorgon and Feather Chest locations and you come prepared, stacking levels into only weapons and abilities matter. The Gorgon Sister was another one i felt was very hard due to her being a lot more agressive and using that Stone Gaze a lot more meant i couldn't riposte as much. I think i had more trouble with the mini-bosses like the boulders-made ones or with the "constant spawn-in of mobs" fights like the one after you end the Atlas arc and reach spiked room entrance(above the surface) where you have to move a lever from a side to another to match the gate entry.

Love this retrospective. I am in love with the god of war games. Probably played through the series 25-30 times. I think you did a good job with this. If you ever play the game again, I want to say that with the Gorgon boss fight. When she freezes the full arena you can use the Golden Fleece to throw it back. No need to jump. Hope it helps on a second play through!

[@mojosiesta9821]

I've played each game twice and some more than others (except I'm still only on my second playthrough of GOW 4 though) but running the series again in timeline order (Ascension through Gow 3). I can't rank them all in order honestly, but I can separate the trilogy and the prequels and rank them that way, while saying the newest GOW game being my favorite. Such a magnificent series

[@haydenddddd]

@@mojosiesta9821 I think my favorite is either god of war 2 or the original god of war. I’m not a huge fan of the new one. But that has to do with the fact that they changed the series so much gameplay wise. I enjoy the game. But not so much as a god of war game.

[@vesselinkrastev]

Interesting. I always thought of God War 2 as all of the same with minor improvements. Hence I thought you wouldn't be too impressed with it after watching your first video. I didn't notice some of the smaller changes like Kratos being able to push objects faster. Or I don't remember noticing them anyway. The first time I played these games I definitely liked the 2nd one better. After I replayed them, which was still several years ago now, I wasn't so sure anymore. The first one felt more cohesive overall. The story in the second had more spectacle and just more stuff but the plot was better though out in the first I think. I also really enjoyed the concept of the architect getting progressively mad and hence the challenges in the temple getting more and more insane. I'm definitely gonna play them again some time. Probably gonna get a PS4 at the end of its life span when it's cheap. I want to go through the exclusives and God of War 3 in solid 60fps is on the list. It would be good opportunity to plat though the original trilogy again.

[@krisorgan]

The kraken was in Clash Of The Titans so I have zero issues about it being in god of war. IMO God Of War 2 is the best in the series, and yes, I include 2018 and Ragnarok in that. I much prefer classic God Of War to these new iterations. I like the new games, just not as much. Great video, I much enjoyed it and you do make some great points.

[@raulsouza5866]

Kratos didn't think Athena was the bird who struck him, Athena simply warned the gods of what Kratos was going to do, she even said "you leave me no choice", so she did what she said she was going to do and told Zeus.

[@sharksbean]

I think the reason Kratos didn’t go further back in time wasn’t because he was blinded by revenge but rather that he knew that tweaking the past alone is dangerous enough never mind rewriting it entirely. Hence why he didn’t use it to stop himself from selling his soul to Ares and instead only went back (now fully powered) to just a second or two after his death when Zeus was still there to kill him this time!

Good review, but I think I can tell you why they used the Kraken. It was in Clash of the Titans, which is one of the movies God of War was inspired by. It being in this game's likely a homage to that film.

[@kanna-chan9455]

I really love the first game, and liked the second at first, but as a completionist I realized that a lot of this game's core problems are only visible in the harder difficulties, how you can easily exploit the enemies and how some scenes can go on for way to long, and when the gameplay on Titan requires you to avoid damage and play more defensively you realize how imprecise the gameplay really is and how poorly telegraphed some of the bosses are. It's almost as if this game was designed around easy mode where you can tank damage and experience the fun part of being an overpowered badass, but when that power fantasy is taken away you're left with just the core gameplay and it's really frustrating. Which is a shame considering the fact that GoW1 God Mode was really the way the game was intended to be played.

[@joshuaharry4163]

This explains why I like the first game and third games in the main trilogy hardest difficulty much more than gow 2s.

[@BorNeoProg]

Great content. I'm playing this trilogy for the first time. This game truly has one of the best openings ever.

[@lavarsch]

I know i'm super late to this: That He thinks Athena is the evil-doer at the start makes sense. In his perspective, he has no idea why Zeus would do anything, his arrogance is only carried by the thought "there's only one 'person' that would do this" And with you getting other gods powers left and right (first game you got Lightning circle from THE water-god(?)), it makes sense that he thinks that in this moment.

[@tikbalang9545]

The threads are probably limited in how far back they can reach. The kraken climbed up the mountain because the statues/pillars that the phoenix push out landed on it hence why it wounded and pissed off

[@Felipe-oe5su]

I was thinking about replaying the games before I played Ragnarok, but your videos are so well done and detailed that I don’t feel like I need to play them anymore! Thank you.

[@darker1376]

im not sure if it was planned to be like this, but it works well either way, since gow ghost of sparta takes place before gow2, and in that game kratos's mother tells him zeus is his father, so with that context, his reaction doesnt seem all that nonsensical, even if we wouldnt know of the fact ourselves at that point, not sure if it makes sense from a story telling perspective, but from the full story that we know now, it makes more sense than it otherwise would have

[@karikjartansson8042]

One of my only criticism with the game is that I wish the Sisters of Fate had a shared design theme . Like Lachesis looks like an ordinary woman, Atropos looks like a Wraith and Clotho looks like a giant silkworm. Individually they look great but together you'd never think they were meant to be a set.

31:40 actually I didnt mind Prometheus's excessive wailing. This is what the Greek saga of God of War was characterized by: constant agony, misery, suffering, and torment. It makes Kratos' destruction of the world a little more morally gray seeing what pricks the gods are in this world.

Funny enough I didn't even know The Kraken was Scandinavian until you pointed that out in this video. It's so closely associated with Clash Of The Titans for me that I always assumed it was from Greek Mythology. The more you know I guess.

[@Ckoz2829]

Maybe Kratos didn’t go back to the battle with the barbarians because in the current timeline he figured that the gods were no good anyway and instead of preventing the whole debacle and living blindly under the omnipotent rule of the gods of Olympus, he figured that the world would be better off without them. Besides, the gods would probably know that Kratos changed his fate and wouldn’t let him get away with it. How would they know that? I dunno. I’m sure someone would know, they’re omnipotent after all.

[@leonpaelinck]

Maybe but the game never brings that up. I don't understand why time travel was even needed. they should have just left it out

[@demonreturns4336]

What kinda dumb take is “why time travel is even needed…” If you okayed the game you’d know exactly why it was needed, the video even explained it. Why did the avengers have to time travel to stop Thanos after he “won” The thing with time travel is that no one person in our reality has ever done it so when it’s used in media it’s a hard concept to try and understand but just as with anything in life that doesn’t exist in reality you just have to suspend some sense of disbelief and just accept it as fantasy Undoing something that is already done - reversing time Lots of us wish we can do that in our real life

Dude, these retrospectives ate brilliant. Your view chubby should be I the hundreds of thousands. One small nit-pick. Don't use "leviathan' as a synonym for giant or colossus. A keviathan is just a serpent of the deep waters. Yes, some mytgs, like the norse sagas have giant leviathans, but not all. Sone sources have them be human sized or smaller. After all, they're based on the primordial fear of snakes. Keep up the good work.

I'm sorry, but the "aspect ratio" is because you didn't go to the options menu to resize the screen. It's something that happened occasionally with remasters on the ps3. They are not cinematic bars, this is also in the psp remasters, it baffling that so many reviewers never resize their picture.
