How Tyr SAVED the God of War Series

Perhaps I treated you too harshly. Avatar Tyr has restored Balance to the 9 Realms and the Franchise.

[@Gamerlord17]

Also I would like to point out that the next step for Kratos will be to prove that he can be a unifier. A guardian. A god of war who fights to protect his land not conqueror others. So what would be dope to me is if another Pantheon waged war on Midgard in an attempt to kill Kratos because they see him as a threat now that he's reclaimed his title as God of war.

Cool idea or atreus kidnapped by the egyptianz and kratos going to rescue him alone would be insane

@@manjupl2788 I don't think that would be a wise idea. Kratos trained Atreus so he could survive without him. If he gets captured and needs dad to come save him that's gonna undermine all of that

@@TheNaturex20 and I think that would be the point. I will admit I'm still a little disappointed that Ragnarok itself wasn't a bigger event but I feel like that's purely because they didn't wanna copy God of war 3 and turn Kratos back into a monster. Now? Now he doesn't have to worry about that. The people of midgard recognize him as their savor and will defend him and back him. If for example Egyptian mythology attacks Midgard? Kratos would no doubt step up to defend his new home and this would be his chance to show not just Midgard but other pantheons that Kratos will not fuck with them if they don't fuck with him

[@someguythatdoesstuff7658]

I love how the DLC acknowledged that the previous games were also multi-faceted and complex. Kratos had other flaws, mistakes, shortcomings, and bad decisions besides his revenge quest like how the neglect of his previous family, ambitious conquests, and desperations.

[@jahsoul357]

Yep; I said that when it first dropped. The DLCs proved that the Greek saga was more complex than casu.....people thought when they downplayed them to up the 2018 game. For me, it was much less about Tyr and more about really revisiting those things that happened in the originals.

[@EJaDav]

I’m also glad they don’t completely push aside all the little things he did and held Kratos accountable. Absolutely incredible redemption arc, I hope we see more.

[@MediumChain]

Neglect? He fuckin' killed his previous family. He was a warrior who was bred for war and at every corner he was put down so that others could rise up.

[@CrashBandicootFan100]

If anything it makes me happier the "simplified look" on the Greek saga so far, seems to just be Kratos' perspective on it.

[@L9Wally]

only new fans think the early gow games had no story or emotion and werent complex. Id actually go out and say the early gow games were more complex story wise than the new ones, the new gow games walk you through the story while holding your hand to tell it to your face like your a child. the older gow games remind me of dark souls story telling, theres story in everything like the items, npcs, enemys you fight, order that things happen, and ofc gameplay and cutscenes but nowadays they have a literal character telling you to your face what the story was from the 1st gow game to the current one. its crazy to think that the new gow fans are such close minded weirdos that shrug young kratos off as just someone whos angry for no reason and killed a lot of people for no reason that they literally had to have tyr explain that he did it for a very good reason.

[@AbdoAbdo-gl8vx]

Also tyr is the key to go to other pantheons (he knows how to travel between mythologies)

[@sayansengupta5791]

Another thing that I noticed was the parallels to going to actual therapy. Going to therapy often can feel like a repetitive process, just like the repetitive loop of a rogue like. Fighting with mental health often does feel like a battle. Helios represents the negative voices in our head that brings us down when we talk or think about our past. Tyr is obviously the therapist, often we "fight" against the therapist when they are trying to help us but they also offer insight into our traumas. So the parallels are very prominent

[@CoolSaver]

And i like how Helios, i.e. negative voices reminding past mistakes, said that he will always be with Kratos, because this way he will be vigilant to not make the same mistakes again

[@thiccboirobin294]

No tyr showed you a perspective about the old games you didn't see ,the games didn't change only your perspective

[@naisagathefirstdestronmand8559]

This is entirely correct! I've been telling people that for years now. The old games are NOT complex. They touch upon things, and get you thinking but never explore those in the depth those topics need. But that's not to say they were bad games. It's just that story wasn't their focus. The game as a video game always came first. Now, the story is given a bit higher focus and now we are finally getting the depth the topics these games bring up needs. This DLC just helps people see the more complex aspects of the older games. Bringing up things that should've been brought up but were only lightly touched upon.

[@BrunoRadke999]

(Spoiler) It was great to see Tyr playing such an important role in the DLC. I love the plot twist of Odin disguised as a fake Tyr in the main game, but i wish i saw the real one doing something important and not being just a NPC you find after you finish the game. The Valhalla DLC gave me even more than what i expected from the real Tyr! 10/10.

[@fourtimingtarantula3561]

Tyr - Kratos therapist with Keanu Reeves vibes.

[@Omar8181]

5:12 Yes, people like to think that krate was morally right when destroying asgard but that isn’t the case, the story itself showcases certain consequences for the destruction of asgard and even destroying friendships with other characters.

[@TheNaturex20]

Which is why I said can be justified, not necessarily that it was 100% morally correct. Many Asgardian and Midgardian bystanders were killed or forced to migrate to uncomfortable territory. People like Thor tryna protect his home and failing. Brok. We all know everything is a shade of gray in this series

[@tirannusmark7ita679]

I think it was justified. It was a sort of trolley problem, if Asgard wasn't destroyed all of the other worlds would have perished to the fimbulwinter. Kratos wasn't justified to destroy Asgard? Then was he justified to let all of the other realms to perish?

[@BlueSpams]

7:46 To be fair, I did remember hearing somewhere that the team at Santa Monica said they still have plenty of plans for Kratos down the road. Of course that can mean a lot of things, so who knows? It did definitely seem like this was the end of Kratos's journey and that they were getting ready to shelf him. I hope this DLC proves that wrong, and that we'll continue to see him.

[@Spirngie]

I'd love to see references about Tyr having been to other mythologies, like "Kratos, you are not the first visitor in these lands", It's a great nod about him and his footsteps in various mythologies

[@anetery1226]

Tyr was cooking up the perfect therapy session and heard you talking shit so he had to clear his name with those boss fights

[@cloudshines812]

Tyr reminded me of a much better written Episode 8 Luke Skywalker. A man who strayed away from the normal traits of the jedi because of his force of nature. He purposely exiled himself after creating the very thing he feared the most… and when the “resistance” needed him the most… he vanished. Luke’s final act is similar in vein of Tyr by not being the passive old generation of jedi… but a peacekeeper who instills a better future by maintaining balance. He doesn’t “defeat” Kylo like we imagined with someone like Obi Wan… instead he undos the mistakes he once made and instills the best for Rey.

[@aniocitex1131]

Odin mocked Tyr on his passiveness and avoidance of war and exaggerated it while disguised as him. This DLC gives us a Superman vs Darkseid moment of “Time for me to cut loose and show you just how powerful I am.”

Thanks for the effort on this video. The only criticism i would have about Tyr is him (or the game) not explaining how Odin captured this slick son of a UNIT like that. Did Thor and Odin both team up on him? Or maybe some devious job from Odin? Would've been cool to have this chat with him.

[@TheNaturex20]

First off, congratulations on the OHKO run glad to have you here. And fact, they could’ve had that as a dialogue line while you’re progressing. But I can a million percent believe that Odin snuck him, or maybe that purple freeze spell that he used on Kratos and Atreus. But ain’t no way his old ass won that 1v1.

[@acgearsandarms1343]

The fact that Týr wasn’t broken like many of Odin’s other victims speaks either volumes of Týr’s strength or Odin’s failure to prove he was better. Perhaps both.

[@95DOIDO]

I was worried, GOW is about many things, but let's be real, killing gods and beasts are the selling points of the franchise, everytime something new about other lands comes into the surface, we all get excited as we can get with the possibilities of meeting new gods and monsters, to fight them... but in GOW ragnarok Kratos being so sad and avoiding conflict at all costs made me worried about the future, like, what would be a good reason to make him fight again? how would SM justify another pantheon being wiped out by Kratos since he is so terrified of killing gods now? and by finding this balance within himself I think it's fair to say that if it's for the right reason, he might fight again, I'm ready for the new god of war, not the one who is going to fight out of rage, not the one will refuse to fight out of regret, but the one who will do what he can for the good of the people, let the hero saga begins... let's do some good, let's meet some people, and let's kill some gods with no burden on our backs...

[@TheNaturex20]

This. THIS is EXACTLY what I mean. Him simply just going to another pantheon and fucking things up would’ve been redundant story wise without a different purpose. The classics were the villain arc, the modern were the middle ground, and the future shall be the hero arc. The Anticipation had been restored for me

[@danielshore1457]

​@@TheNaturex20 I also think norse gods were the perfect set up for this as they aren't as inrinsinctly linked to the world as the Greek pantheon was so like it allows more personal conflicts and that when ome of the gods do die not everything is messed up beyond repair

[@Do0mSl4yer95]

​@@TheNaturex20 I don't see the Greek saga as a villain arc at all. Zeus grew paranoid and mad which drove him to start killing people and he had to be taken down. That's not including how he also tormented Kratos' bloodline. Everyone who got in the way wasn't willing to exactly listen either. Kratos even gave Hercules and Hephaestus chances to live and they attacked him. Once Zeus was dead Kratos stopped his rampage and attempted to kill himself. The Greek saga is surprisingly polarizing I guess. It always seemed kind of apparent Kratos would be dragged into the next conflict. The thing that's a little strange about Ragnorok is technically Atreus, Freya, and Mimir instigated Kratos killing Odin for 2 whole games and I can't help but feel like there could be an extremely dark set up pending between The God of War and God of Mischief 🤔 either way, Loki plays a role in why Kratos returns in the next saga.

I honestly doubt we'll get another Kratos game. I agree, a big question was, what does Kratos do after Ragnarok? But i got a whole different vibe off the ending than you for Valhalla. Like his the God of War helping the lands rebuild. Its a good stopping point for his story, having come full circle to the first game. Plus we already have a plot set up for Atreus to take over since he is literally going to different lands to find the giants that are hiding.

[@DannyGaendon]

Yeah but how many GoW fans want to play a game only with Atreus and without Kratos? God of War without Kratos is like Super Mario without Mario This would be a bad idea from business perspective. And since gaming is business, they will do what sells better: A game with Kratos The writers will find a reason for Kratos to go on

[@cassidepowers7006]

@@DannyGaendon So it's better to keep contriving reasons to make him kill? Like be honest, what would the next GoW game be if we are Kratos? He's in a land that is in peace times, helping to try and put everything back together and being a good leader to the people. You would rather we take all that away and make him go kill God's again? Dude we have like 8 or 9 games with Kratos, with Valhalla his story has gone full circle going back to the first GoW. It's time to let Kratos go and accept a new protagonist before they pull a Disney and ruin him cause they don't want to leave the comfort zone.

[@Kennedy00Louis]

I love the last few lines in the very ending when Kratos talks to his younger self. I don't remember them perfectly but it's basically: "You're cruel and selfish, but you're more than that, you've always been more than what others saw" Fits both to his character and as a reflection of the original series as a whole, sure it was violent, all about the gameplay and brutality with less focus on story, despite that, the story and its themes always been there, it always had meaning, I hear often how people say "the norse games matured the franchise", and while I understand what they are trying to say, Kratos story in greece has always been, to me at least, one of a very well written tragedy, the greek and norse games will forever complete what each other had to say. One shows a path of revenge leading to destruction and loneliness, ending with a self sacrifice, and the other is a path of redemption and rebuilding, with the payoff of the hope that came with said sacrifice. Like some others pointed out, this DLC doesn't change the greek games, it only explores them more in depth, shows what's already been there on more perspectives.

[@ARuiz-eu3hk]

Absolutely. Always hate that some the developers for the Norse sage we're talking mad shit about the old gow games. Goes to show that those guy didn't understood them. They we're always deep with great gameplay. Glad this dlc reflected on the deeper messages and story classic gow was telling.

[@TheNaturex20]

I see no lies here. It’s time to get rid of that false narrative once and for all. People don’t realize the New games only hit so hard BECAUSE of the old games BECAUSE of that initial build up. The God of War series as a whole is one of the best video game stories ever made.

[@ImDaRealBoi]

The amount of character that this dlc had, the expanded depth of the characters, I love it. The devs gave more respect to the past games than the reviewers. Thank you santa monica for giving us such a wonderful gift 🙏 This dlc acts like the bloody palace in devil may cry. Aka an injection of fun a challenge whenever I want One more thing. The reason the geneva convention / rules of war exist is so that, when there IS war, there can still be some chance of peace in the end so that neither side completely destroys the other with no remorse. Maybe kratos needs to be that.

Alot of people would have preferred to see the real him participate in ragnarok. Some people may still do. But now? Now in valhalla he gets to show what he can do. He shows that he is everything the stories about him as the god of war. Not just as a fighter but also as a guide. He showed kratos a path for him. He saved the god of war series by living up to his reputation. And for that, i'd like to honor him by showing everyone here this song:kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWmQnJmih52KhsUsi=kmQeQkwJzWQXTF-P

The thing is, videogames where killing everything in sight as violently as possible IS my therapy so when the game begins to lecture me on things it encouraged me to do at one point I find it pretentious. Also didn't appreciate the fact I was getting nerfed to give Tyr a chance while he got to use his whole kit and summon help 😅

[@the_guy_with_a_shitty_mic4175]

its a rougelike. you are not weak, you start from 0 and build ur way up and story wise tyr is your friend. he is just sparring hence the yielding at the end@@Do0mSl4yer95

[@sadlife7710]

Watched the whole thing twice, this is great.

[@ChikuEnjoyer]

The franchise was nowhere close to die tf you smoked? The DLC is epic but not a reason to falsify something such as the franchise being near to die when it never did.

[@critikalghost]

Technically if you get a specific Relic you could use Helios to "Blind" enemies

[@BortArt]

I'm pretty sure that the first thing Kratos would have to deal with as the new god of war Is the bullshit the elves are always getting into with eachother. Like the 2018 game explicitly mentions that at this point, they just go to war because it's what they've always known. The only reason they cooperated in ragnarok Is because "get along or fucking die" isn't really a choice.

[@smananderson09]

That dlc is what kratos needed a therapy session

[@Kaijugan]

God. I just wish that people would just stop fucking bitching about Atreus. He’s a good character, for fuck’s sake, quit whining.

I’m sorry I just hate him so much I can’t stop bitching.

[@cursedhawkins1305]

Kratos isn't so much becoming a new "God of War" he's becoming a God of Hope, that's what the prophecy that was shown at the end of Ragnarök, Kratos becoming the God of Hope, not the God of War.

@NATURE904 when we gon get part 8 of the rewrite

[@DanielRodriguez-mc4bp]

I know this is off topic,but you forgot to add 2 more things in your odin vs zeus video. You were supposed to add in who was the worst father and who had the better drip

[@TheNaturex20]

Damn you’re right. I believe Odin has the superior drip, Zeus was pretty typical and was carried by his imposing physique But I think Zeus was the worst father (even tho Odin is not far) considering Zeus has wayyy more kids and don’t even interact with them. Odin be bullying Thor but at least that man is present I guess 🤣.

[@DanielRodriguez-mc4bp]

Zeus even when he was infected by the evil fear at least addressed kratos as his son. He cared enough for ares to bury him. The way odin addresses his sons comes off the way a commander addresses his soldiers and that's all his sons and everyone else was to him. He asked loki if he found anything noteworthy as if his son heimdall being dead wasn't noteworthy. To him he was simply another casualty. He even treated his own daughter-in-law like a soldier like it was normal. Also, zeus talked to athena in a gow novel so he did talk to his children just not that often

@@DanielRodriguez-mc4bp Actually you might be right…

Also I was wondering how the draupnir spear will give kratos the "6th sense" that brok talked about in order to kill vali or are you gonna explain it in part 9

Bro I gotta admit I sent my controller flying… He gets even harder after you finish the dlc too

[@MrTwistedLizard]

I havent been the biggest fan of the new series I admit, most of the time it feels like a game made by people who wanted to make a movie. However I do kind of appreciate what they tried to do here with the DLC having Kratos come to terms with what he did in Greece That said I think the best characterization of Kratos comes from the original series, more accurately the 2 PSP games and Ascension as those are the closest we come to seeing Kratos the human before Kratos the god. And how the attempts of the gods to make Kratos less human to better fit his role ended up turning him into the monster that brought about the destruction of the Greek pantheon

[@crazyfor60]

Where’s the audio of Kratos talking about the burden of guilt at the end from? I just love it but it’s not from the end of Valhalla

[@TheNaturex20]

Look up Kratos returning to where they freed the fake tyr

[@vgernyc]

8:27 Kratos, dare I say Burdened with Glorious Purpose??? It's what your son would have said.

[@TheNaturex20]

Man, two adaptations of Loki are not that different..

[@TheBlackAdder1964]

Please don’t lump Kratos in with that awful poorly written Loki show

[@marrow_Munch]

If he is staying in Norse and this is the last Norse game. Does that mean the next pantheon we will play as atreus? I don't mind, but I hope for at least a cameo.

[@thesilentsociety3252]

Loki’s search for the remaining Giants has a higher chance of putting him at odds with other pantheons, while Kratos is staying to help the realms rebuild. I think we will see Sigrun make a cameo in a future title given the events of Valhalla, Kratos without a doubt will return to Greece and that is where we will possibly get the father-and-son reunion

[@Kjf365]

I think that the green rift Odin was obsessed with will be the catalyst for future games. Atreus will come across more leads on it in his search for the giants (probably in his own spinoff game) and find out they are more important than he realized and ask Kratos for help in solving it all.
