History Of Odin - The All Father Of The Nine Realms - God Of War Series

Hello everyone!
And welcome to another God Of War video!
Today with us finally at the end of the norse series of games! I thought that today we could talk about a pivotal figure In not only the nordic saga, but also norse mythology as a whole, the elder god of the aesir and all father of Asgard, Odin!
Now Odin has been a heavily foreshadowed figured since kratos arrival Into that of the nine realms, with the midgard scarred In his search for power AND a higher plane of reality, so what does lie beyond the realm of gods?
Well In todays video we’re gonna be dialling things extremely far back, to understand just who the all father actually Is, what Impact has he made on the series, and most importantly, what has driven the all father insane? As his pursuit for knowledge transcends anything we’ve seen In the series before!
So I hope you enjoy this one and learn more by doing so!

Odin almost perfectly suits the character of Satan and perhaps a mafia boss, and not the kind commonly portrayed in society, he is soft, kind, charismatic, and appeals to your faculties of reason, emotion and curiosity. I mean if you didn't know who Odin really is behind the scene, or even pick up his undertone and slight passive aggressiveness, which can be hard by the way, you would happily follow him until you mess up.

He labelled it as God of War series but he is mixing up with actual Norse Mythology. In GoW ver. Odin didn't lose his eyes in Mimir's well, he lost it from peeking into the green tear. Also, its never clear that Tyr or Heimdall is Odin's son; maybe Tyr but Heimdall is presented as more of his 'lapdog'. He is essentially misrepresenting, man..

Odin was a very good in this game. When I first saw him in game I was little surprised by his appearance and he's mob man godfather like nature.

He almost tricked Kratos into going the peaceful route. That's how powerful he is compared to Zeus. Only arrogant gods think they can outpower the literal killing machine that is the main player character. Crafty ones steal someone's entire character arc, masquerade as them, and then almost get away with tricking their entire family to do their bidding. People really underscore just how much Odin gaslights everyone. He's like an evil Batman on steroids: he's not as powerful as others in the Justice League, but give him prep-time he'll destroy your entire operation.

[@DarknessXevil]

Why is no one talking about how this “higher plane” could have something to do with Athena in GOW 3? When she died, didn’t she come back as a specter from a higher plane? Odin also said that a woman came to him in his dream and told him of the mask. Couldn’t this woman be the spectral Athena? This could be part of the bigger overall story and could be expanded on in the next games. Since kratos is no longer a god killer looking for vengeance but is instead a protector, this could be a good reason for his story to continue. If he wants to protect his people, he’ll have to go to other lands and figure out the mystery of this “higher plane”.

[@AntiDegenerate1971]

Undoubtedly the most well written and genuine villain in the Norse games....I like how he was always a manipulating knowledge seeker who would kill anyone and anything to find out what happens next....my personal fav villain along with baldur from gow2018.

Finished the story yesterday. Amazing game. I have a hard time believing we could get a better game in the PS5 gen. It's that good!

[@shoresean1237]

I do dislike the turn the 616 character has taken of late, whether true to the myths or not, but here it fits perfectly. Growing up between two extremes of hell, he and his brothers (no real mention of their fates) feel the need to forge a new world, but having done so, feel entitled to it. From there, everything proceeds and if the being who gave them life could be sacrificed and displaced, then no one else is sacrosanct. There is a school of thought that says loyalty in a hierarchy should only flow upwards, but inherent in that is that the subject is granted protection and sustenance. We may compare this Odin to a mob boss, but the primal Mob Boss of all fiction, Vito Corleone, would view him with disdain. "Your power I acknowledge. I would have to be a fool not to. But you are also a fool, Lord Odin. I too have dead and lost children, but not by my choice. Your lands do not prosper under you. You look to masks, and peep-holes for answers, when they are all about you. I had a Kratos, named Luca Brasi. I made him my left hand. I had a volcanic son, named Santino, and he himself was a hammer, till broken by his own heat. You may erase me at your whim, even make people forget me. But you will erase yourself, and people will choose to forget you. You say there is a fated day your enemies will gather against you? My last words to you are this: That day is always coming, and it will come again."

@@PedroDiogoAzarias yeah, and even in the myths something similar happened. he struck a deal w/ mimir because he wanted to drink from his well of knowledge ( something along those lines ) and mimir asked him for something equally as important, and odin without hesitation ripped his own eye out and gave it to him lol. i'm more inclined to believe mimir as santa monica does like to sorta twist and rewrite the events of the myths to fit their stories. not a bad thing, it's really sick!

[@thrindel]

Spoiler for the end of God of War: Ragnarok Theory: I am predicting that the green scar..... is connected to the “higher plane of existence” that Athena “Ascended” to after her death in God of War III. A few bits of dialog keyed me into this train of thought. 1st: Odin questioned what sort of afterlife awaited him after his death and looking into the green scar gave him some insight. I believe he was looking into the realm of “higher existence” that Athena occupies (possibly) to this day. (She was defiantly present to pull the sword from Kratos at the end GoW3) 2rd. Odin in the game is the closest match to a God of wisdom much like Athena. I believe had Odin stayed on a virtuous path he would have “Ascended” beyond the green scar to the “higher plan of existence” naturally. However, unlike Athena when Odin was confronted with a glimpse of the realm beyond, he became obsessive and destructive. Odin is an example of the kind of damage a wise person can do with a lack of empathy. As he stated in the fight when Atreus (Loki) destroyed the mask, “Everything I worked for. Everything I killed for….. what was it all for” he justified all the evil acts and manipulation of others as the cost of seeking “truth and knowledge”. Ultimately, (if the theory that Athena ascended because she sacrificed herself for the greater good” this evil obsession would have possibly led to his rejection from “higher existence” (aka the loss of an eye). Minor other points: As it stands there is a plot hole on why the Mask reacted to Garm in Helheim even though no mask fragment was present. If the prediction is that the Green Scar is a tear in existence to a “Higher Plane” my prediction is that Garm was the one who made the tear. Garm’s ability to traverse and tear holes win the realms is second to none. Who knows the scars he ripped open in the world tree before being chained in Helheim. It may even be possible that Gram’s soul may have unintentionally crossed over to the “high existence” leaving his soulless body behind. Mask could be reacting to any number of Gram’s connections to “higher existence”. (Not to mention the game points out the difference between primordial beings and gods much as the original trilogy did) Both Athena and Odin wanted Knowledge in order to rule over the land. Odin lied to himself thinking he could make the 9 realms a better place with what lies beyond the tear and Athena in her “ascended state” stated, “mankind was ready to hear her message and mankind would not know what to do with it (hope)”. In the end, both seemed to have delusions that they were the fittest to rule over all.

[@AnaxErik4ever]

Odin may be the chief of the Aesir, ever questing for knowledge... I like how Santa Monica explored just how high a body count, and how low a person's sanity, could climb in pursuit of knowledge. It was interesting to see Loki and Odin's "blood brothers" relationship from the myths played out as "fellow scholars, despite their differing intentions". In either case, I remember Odin forgave Loki all his mistakes and dangerous mischief because of the challenges he presented to the All Father, the new ways of thinking and clever plots Loki crafted to get the Aesir out of many dire straits. Asgard's Wall, "Freya's Unusual Wedding", and the creation of Draupnir and Gungnir (among other gifts) are but some of the myths where Loki gets ultimate credit for making sure the Aesir are secure in their rule... only Santa Monica rearranged them a little to showcase the Aesir's predilection for deceit, bloodshed, and belligerence. With Marvel's version of Loki being the one most people think of when they hear "trickster god" or "silver tongued liar", maybe "bringer of death", they forget that all of these titles can/have been applied to Odin mythology. I knew from when he walked into Kratos' house, he was looking for a fight, anticipating the destruction to come, keen to weave elaborate games of deception for players to unravel (or fall into). I knew the Noose with runes on it for EXACTLY what it was when Freya and Kratos found it; it is the reason why Odin is considered a DEATH god, among other kinds of god he is, since he sacrificed himself (to Yggdrasil and to himself) in pursuit of knowledge. This could be seen as either "creative and unusual punishment" or "desperation for knowledge that supersedes any living being"; Santa Monica brought BOTH aspects to their Odin's cruelty. I hate him, I admire him, I knew to NEVER trust him when I first saw him. What a marvelous villain!

He almost tricked the Ghost of Sparta, the genocidal killer of gods, the last Greek God, into being a "sacrifice" for his knowledge.

Odin is exactly the god we needed after the Greek Saga. Zeus was awesome, but making a repeat character would only make a worse Zeus. Zeus is force of nature that is tremendous powerhouse of strength. Odin is a deceitful master tactician whos strength lays in knowledge and intelligence. A master manipulator who makes you and your friends doubt themselves and strike at the perfect timing. Odin fooled everyone in the room and instigated chaos from within without most people questioning it. The only person that noticed "Tyr" being weird was Brok. He lives by gut feeling without questioning it and that approach was the only approach immune to Odin's Deception. Brok was the only one who put a halt to Odin's nearly perfect plan, and its even more poetic that draupnier spear that he blessed was the thing to catch the mask. The only reason why his near perfect getaway fell apart was a dwarf he considered insignificant.

[@hawk66100]

I thought in Ragnarok Odin implied that he went blind in that eye by peering into the rift without the mask on.

[@enel9516]

he lied

[@heavenlyweather117]

Tyr and Heimdall never stated to be Odin's kids, in the game at least

[@jedinialfamuzjak]

I mean, Odin doesn't like talking about Tyr, because he thinks he betrayed him, and he actually liked Heimdall.

I thought the Tear was gonna be where athena is

[@MONSTER743]

Are you sure it was Mimir's spiked well that made Odin lose his eye? Cause Odin said so himself that it was looking through the reality crack without the mask that took his eye, and he stopped Atreus from looking into the crack and showed his missing eye as a result?

[@Facelessbuster]

Yeah I’m confused by that too

[@Prince__Teclis]

Mimir comments about Odin's tale saying he's lying about that story after Atreus asks him about it.

[@ycarusgamer5187]

One thing you forgot to mention besides Odin having the 4 childrens he also had Hodder the Blind God and He is Baldur's twin brother,Ullr The adventurous The God of Hunting and also He is the Thor's Stepson and Odin had it too Njord The God of the Seas and Leader of the Vanir Gods and he is Freyr and Freya's father and Odin also had Bragi the God of art & music married to his wife Idunn the goddess of youth They were all there the day Freyr was burned alive and they exist in this universe only mentioned but have not appeared yet.. as well as Forseti,Hela,Vidar,Vali and finally Hermod The others childrens and Grandchildrens of Odin the all father and also Odin besides having yours crows he also has his wolves and his horse Sleipnir just as Freyr has his boar Gullinbursti and Thor has his goats and There's a new information in the Valhalla dlc about Odin and his relationship with Valhalla and the Valkyrie Make an updated video about his story 🤔😁👍 like and Bye!

Odin is a lot like Palpatine

Still prefer the concept art over the actual Odin in the game

I agree. The game Odin is garbage

GOW Ragnarok was great. Even though they’re a lot of plot holes,Atreaus/Loki stole the show.

[@steveg8029]

I truly hate what they did with sindri. I really didn’t like his ending story line.

[@Randaddy25]

At first I hated Odins character design. But after spending some time in the game, he grew on me. While I do enjoy this game, very much, I can't help feeling it could've been better. Just my opinion tho.

[@SLIZZYNIMBUZ]

9:55 So if Odin really lost his eye because he got high then how come in the game it’s implied that he lost his eye because he looked inside the fracture

[@Facelessbuster]

Maybe it was to better convince Atreus not to look into the fracture. Like it was alive to prevent the boy from seeing answers to something he couldn’t. I don’t know

[@Prince__Teclis]

Atreus can actually ask about why Odin has a different story and Mimir mentions Odin will lie about things even if they don't seem worth lying about.

[@sharkyrazz]

Just a theory: What if Fjörgyn died due to the same thing as Faye ( a sickness of sort ) and then giants didn’t want to help her that’s why Thors hatred for the Jotnar is so strong cuz he loved his mother?

[@rizqi5145]

Or she trying to stop odin madness and be killed by odin himself (like thor) and manipulate thor to hate other giant. But heyy it just a theory A GAME THEORY

[@jedinialfamuzjak]

Thor is forced to listen to Odin. Who Odin wants killed, Thor will kill. Who he wants alive, Baldur would find him. Tyr was the one who sought peace with the Jotnar, so Odin imprisoned him. Odin hates giants, and so does Thor.

[@yaboi2500]

@@rizqi5145 Doubt it. As we know, her death badly affected Odin. Remember, this was Odin before becoming purely obsessed with preventing Ragnarok.
