As someone whose struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts, these lines tore me apart. I had to put down the game cause I couldn't stop crying. It's like I've needed someone to tell me these words for years and I'm so glad I've heard them. Sometimes the one things scarier than dying is living, and the one thing scarier than living is being happy and fulfilled, loving so deeply while knowing the pain you'd feel if ever it were lost. It still frightens me. But Faye and the people in my life like her remind me to have courage in the face of loss. To love in spite of fear.

"never been sad?" Dude, did you see his grief when he saw what he did to his family? When he stabbed Athena? When Deimos died? That scene where the Harpies tried fooling him into thinking he was back with his family? What about the man who asked Kratos to kill him? He couldn't even look him in the eyes as he did it; it hurt too much. Yes, Kratos had a period of being a cruel, unyielding monster. You can blame the Gods for jerking him around so much as anyone would snap under those circumstances. Did he take things out on innocent people? Yes and it was needless, but he now regrets it and is stuck serving penance through redemption. All this man ever wanted was to be home with his family, but he keeps losing people to the point where he fears it. You don't get that way without being horrendously hurt and sad. Pay more attention to the cut scenes next time.

I see he have never been sad for grief he didn’t even take the grief for his family he continues to kill and seeking vengeance whatever it cost him and it didn’t work but it became a cycle of guilty feeling that never ended till he destroyed Olympus then the vengeance ended by killing him self The man who asked kratos to kill him he did so also for vengeance and left that man and continues his cycle When he stabbed Athena bruh he looked into her eyes and said I will destroy Olympus

He wanted to die, but when confronted with death, he's given the necessary perspective to appreciate life for what it is and decides to keep living, hence the passage, "he asked Death to help him load the logs on to his back."

[@superunicorn1001]

@@Psyshimmer I think death is love. Hear me out: The logs in this story represent brutality and savageness in battle. The ability to disregard all human or otherwise morals and eliminate whatever is in front of him. We know kratos and fey met shortly after he arrived in Midgard, then fell in love. Kratos wanted to be done with the killing. With the battles. With the wars. The "logs". But because he so desperately called for the love he always wanted, aka "death", he realizes that to love is to fight. To love so deeply, that he is willing to stare into heimdalls eyes as he chokes the life out him after threatening atreus, is kratos learning that he can never put his blades down. He must fight for as long as he lives for his son. I think that's why kratos decided to lead everyone. He knew that to keep the ones he loved safe, he would have to do anything and everything he is capable of.

[@sixteensixteen__]

the fact that these people are arguing what analogy kratos uses when he tells the story to atreus is what makes their dialogue so special. you can interpret it in so many ways that may or may not relate to the series at all but still produces a beautiful conclusion. writing and scripting is indeed a 100/10

[@misterdixtersupreme6963]

There’s no competition for this story bro. It’s a masterpiece

[@pustulio81]

Man, seeing Kratos on the verge of tears hits you pretty damn hard 😢😭

[@matthewdiaz555]

The first time I heard this theme . I didn’t know how much he loved Faye.. seeing this now tears my heart apart because I never got to see him so loving. Now all he has is his son and her memories

[@zombies5100]

This makes me want to hug my mother...and let her know how much I love her for everything shes done for me...

[@kiratherenegade1561]

I remember reading not long ago that Deborah Anne Wolf was struggling to find work after Daredevil. Seeing her in GOW: Ragnarok - arguably one of the if not the biggest game of year is deserved. Great actress.

[@melancholicechosingstothemoon]

I would love to see their love story Faye looks so kind and peaceful but also teased Kratos

[@kissland29]

ironic how in the weeks before ragnarok, Kratos had troubles with his sleep due to nightmares. but the night before Ragnarok, he finally had the most peaceful sleep he has ever experienced. props to the dev and prod team to make kratos not only a war machine, but a human with deep rooted emotional trauma and shows how he was able to live with them and conquer them

[@ryulee1996]

Faye is such a underrated character, I could be wrong, she so mysterious and such a great personality wife for Kratos. Which is why she was the reason of Kratos and Atreus story.

[@cosmogcrusader5546]

This scene was both so happy and so sad, especially with Faye's theme playing in the background. *Goodbye, Faye.*

[@HansFermilan]

"the culmination of love is grief, yet we love despite the inevitable"

[@TheBengalDragon]

No, there is NO OTHER GAME that told a story as good as Ragnarok. PERIOD! And I am willing to challenge anyone on this.

[@markopujic660]

I love that you actually see that she does not want to die. She doesn't want to leave her family alone. But she also knows that they are strong enough to make it together, without her.

[@Pluvillion]

Faye and Atreus taught Kratos how to love again. Let me cry for a moment, hold on.

[@kraatarin8226]

5:52 "I would have you close to me" dear lord how Kratos's voice breaks being so frail

[@dHybrid_351]

Having to lose my lil brother after, and hearing that quote, "To grieve deeply, is to have loved fully.", hit me so dam hard when i played this. Never have i ever cried so hard 💔

[@VBane]

Faye telling him to open his heart makes the moment during Ragnarok where he tells Atreus to do the same, the opposite of his advice in the first game, so great.

[@thanhduong9422]

This is not a game but a masterpiece indeed

[@nickdwyer1451]

Faye’s dialogue on life & death is worded perfectly. It’s profound! This hits home.

[@elwingy]

The animation department deserves a damn award... the characters are so lifelike that they dont even need to speak to convey emotion. Just look at Kratos... When he is not even speaking he is pouring emotionally. Incredible work.

[@Shatteredlightunderfadingstars]

It's ok to hurt when you have loved. The pain is how you know it was real.

[@tendies1798]

Almost cried on this part

[@zavala4148]

Before the game came out I was convinced elden ring would be GOTY, but after this specific scene I realized how wrong I was, this scene is just beautiful taking into consideration every single thing kratos has gone through.

[@thefull9746]

I gotta admit that storywise this game kicks asses

[@ladyselin35]

Well in the end Kratos still maidenless :D

[@sebc998]

8:55 the scene alone is extremely beautiful and heartwarming but the music right here is enough to make kratos himself cry

[@xXParodoxenXx]

Oh shit kratos is back as general holy shit welcome back old friend

[@dnzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz]

Amazing scene, I got absolute GOOSEBUMPS when the music started at the end

[@Justinoo_Motivational]

Faye was the reason, Kratos was so wise damn

[@knowun]

Definitely the holy grail of storytelling

[@rektl2036]

Faye went beyond motivation by fate and revenge, to doing it for true love for Kratos and aretus

[@RedGodlol]

My man finally found peace, strongest being in all of existence, god killer , god of war ,brother, father, husband It’s been a helluva ride . The best Video Game character

[@HolySmokes-_-]

"Open your heart to the world and you'll find reason to keep living in it" really got me

[@joshmciver3319]

This scene is fantastic and Deborah Ann Wolls performance is spectacular. Those last to lines "To grieve deeply, is to have loved fully" and "Open your heart to the world as you have opened it to me and you'll find every reason to keep living in it" are brilliant.

[@pornoszyk]

He wakes up from his first dream startled, as if it was a nightmare. He wakes up from this one with incredible calm, making peace with the role Faye envisioned for him.

[@Thommy2n]

I was so glad they decided to give Faye proper full fledged scenes through these flashbacks, and not just a fleeting image so that she really could have her own character, not just some vague specter pushing the main character along. And it goes without saying, Deborah Ann Woll absolutely nailed it, bringing to life probably the only character in existence who could soften Kratos’ heart.

[@Enticing27]

When Faye said, "...I love hearing your voice" it somehow did something

[@oompaloompa6064]

“To grieve deeply is to have loved fully” “What is grief if not love persevering?”

[@jimmymurphy898]

Faye is an incredible character, so happy she was in this game and not just mentioned like God of War 4. This game is a masterpiece.

[@joshuaguste6883]

I love that while she knows all of the story and character of the Greek era Kratos and everyone in it from Olympian, Titan, hero and Sister of Fate, she aided and helped him grow and heal.

[@magiccookies420]

Wasn’t expecting to cry at this scene

[@Skippygamer1]

This was my FAVORITE SONG of the previous game...I am SO THANKFUL they brought it back in SUCH A PERFECT WAY.... beautiful...so beautiful...................☹️☹️☹️☹️

[@Boss94silva]

The music from the scene gave me goosebumps 🤯🤯🤯

[@freekill1018]

I lost my mother a long time ago it's just my father and I now Its so hard to watch this game I just...I don't have words for it...
