The reason why the moves are different could also be that the chains of the blades were fused with him before which allowed more freedom of movement allowing him to perform more flashy and stronger attacks, now that he manually has to tie them to his arms, his movements have to be more precise and stronger, could also be that the number of creatures against him doesn't require all the full range of his attacks.

[@theendersmirk5851]

Watching these side by side, Old Kratos seems to be more forceful with each individual strike than young Kratos. The only reason you'd think young Kratos was the stronger of the two is that old Kratos doesn't have as loud of chain sound effects going on during the strikes, which is probably more of a sign that his strikes are wasting less energy by clinking the chains around with too much slack. If that's the case, even the main thing which makes the young Kratos's strikes seem stronger is actually a proof that they are less effective than old Kratos.

[@CorruptedYT]

Young kratos was in spartan rage 100% of the older games that’s why regular moves in the older games are now special moves because he needs to use rage for them, it’s not that young kratos is stronger, old kratos just don’t wanna do that anymore

[@theendersmirk5851]

@@YEY0806 the double jump is assumed to be a Greek magic lost when the Kratosing happened to Olympus, he left the wings behind, and you're assuming completely different mythologies would have monsters of the same strength in the same positions, Kratos doesn't *require* anything to kill a Draugr, he just needs to hit it with a magic axe, unless you're playing GMGOW in which case.. you realize story mode is the canon difficulty setting, right? Like, GMGOW is essentially what would happen if Kratos's war god powers leaked out and buffed *every* enemy in the game, or something similarly stupid. He might not one shot everything or anything, and improved gear made by the same dudes who made Thor a hammer that can produce time travel by hitting a big snake hard enough isn't exactly making him weaker, but to claim that he's weaker for not having wings that he just left behind, a double jump which is probably a Greek magic trick, and not killing fire zombies as fast as he killed non elemental zombies while hopped up on rage juice, seems like a comparison that doesn't compare.

What people don't realize is the gameplay and moves are the same just applied and wired differently. Only real difference is that Young Kratos can jump and do combos in the air, that's literally it. Older games are going more so for aesthetics and flashy whereas the new ones are more so grounded and cinematic. Also the combat is perfect for Young and Old Kratos because Young Kratos uses skill but is unleashing wildly and is filled with rage and vengeance whereas Old Kratos fights with a controlled and focused rage tempered by skill and experience. Either way he's a powerhouse and is satisfying af to play and fucks up his enemies all the same. People just love to bitch and whine and are so shallow to never consider lore and character. And even if you do allow one shot kills which is boring af (and also just play easy mode) people will still bitch and whine so it doesn't matter.

[@Eri587]

Young kratos movements seems to be more effortless based on the grunts, he seems to exert more force when he is old or is more demanding but old Kratos has sligthly more complicated moves, his moveset now has more complicated movement in the sequences, however young kratos impacts seem to have more power based on the impact explosion and how hard it sounds upon impact.

@@SonicAdventureEnjoyer we see Kratos tap into his rage multiple times in 2018 and all of them are done in defense of his son; that's a justified reason to be angry and go all out. The writing of Ragnarok could have been better to show more moments where anger can be used as a weapon at the right time. Kratos killing Heimdall was justified not only because Heimdall threatened to kill Atreus, but also because he was never going to stop being evil. However, that scene was written in a way to make it look like Kratos was in the wrong for doing it since Mimir was telling Kratos to stop. The small arc Kratos goes through in this game started off great with him keying into it when he haymakered Thor, but the payoff for the rest of the game fell flat. Maybe if there had been real consequences to killing Heimdall, it could have worked, but overall it would have been better if Kratos went full Ghost of Sparta on someone like Thor and left such devastation from their battle that people like Mimir and Freya would be terrified of Kratos.

My comment isn't about the video at all but I like that you have some thing set up for people to be more respectful towards others, I don't see that often when I go to comment.... Or at all, this is the first I've seen of this

sadly he stopped slashing while hes in the air, only attacks on the ground even if his enemy is in the air

0:00 should be with 1:32 Basically Plume of Prometheus is the enhanced version of Olympic Fury Start with Olympic Fury then after 2 hits or more just before Olympic Fury ends, you hit the ∆

[@RzK_venger795]

Wait what? What's going with Mimir at the end? LMAO! Great comparison btw❤️

[@cc-5579]

I like to think that instead of runes or whatever, Kratos simply remembers "oh yeah, I can do that."

[@chickendrawsdogs3343]

Don't know if it's on the recording's end, but most of the moves - particularly Tartarus Rage - feel more impactful in 2018 because of the sound design.

I don't care what the Norse era developers say; young Kratos would crush old Kratos in a fight. Young Kratos showed us just how insanely powerful he was, while old Kratos relies on the developers to tell us that he's stronger but they failed at showing it.

Old Kratos has to wait to use abilities that he used to be able to spam like crazy. I don't care what the developers said, Greek Kratos is many times stronger and more capable of fighting than Norse Kratos. They failed at showing us his new strength and power that they bragged about so much.

[@saadiyakhan4025]

I don’t understand how people infer that Young Kratos was more powerful because he swings the blades with more force. Young Kratos’ moves seem much more haphazard. Old Kratos moves with precision and expertise. His strikes are deadly but he doesn’t need to exert himself in every move. That doesn’t mean he can’t do the moves Young Kratos could, just that he doesn’t NEED to.

[@snydegag1]

It seems to me that gow 2018 was a sequel to the old games, but rangarok is a sequel as well as a love letter to the old games. The amount of information about the old games that are mentioned or discussed is astounding. Alot of verbal easter eggs in this one whereas 2018 had very few, that I remember. 2018 brought up things that made sense to the plot but it feels like rangnarok just starts discussing the plots of the pasts games at random

[@gamerd8709]

Ragnarok was boring as hell as well

[@johnleonard9102]

Ragnarok had horrible writing, so they relied on nostalgia towards the old games and made overdramatic and highly cinematic cutscenes to trick people into thinking the story was good.

[@lawlaw8530]

Old one, I can feel his anger and rage which also made Me angry resulting in moving too much and going berserk even if it is an innocent bystander. The GOW 4 gameplay...I feel like I can win by just punching everyone to the point I only use axe because the game wants Me. New Kratos seems more like a "tired of fighting" style compare to the old "come at me bro" style.

[@marvin_demon]

I really really love gow 2018 and Ragnarok. But i wish there were more games like the older gow's, dmc, ninja gaiden. I really mis those type of hack n slash games.

I do have to say you got square square triangle mixed with triangle triangle triangle, if those clips were swapped it would make more sense as that's literally the same inputs in the newer game

[@kayveethegoat1573]

The Devs stated thats due to the new camera angle they had to shorten the length of the blades.

[@johnleonard9102]

Well shoot maybe they should have, let's see here, what's the technical word for it, ADJUSTED THE CAMERA ANGLE.

[@mr.frankfurt4986]

@@johnleonard9102 Why? It was a deliberate choice to have other gameplay elements adapt to the camera angle and not the other way around. It may not look like it, but the camera angle is one of the most important elements of gameplay and it's mostly what makes a game **feel** like itself. And the combat system and experience that they wanted to go for required a closer angle. So some sacrifices had to be made somewhere else to balance the experience. You may dislike this (and that's fine), but it was by no means something that just passed over their heads. It's deliberate.

I don't know if it was just me but excited about gow games coming in the future to see what the Blade of chaos will look like in terms of design, especially when it is upgraded from one level to a higher level (the design of the Blade in full upgrade in Ragnarok is very beautiful, but somewhat disappointing, the presence of scratches and cracks And echo from its initial form I don't know I see it's a detail that's not necessary it looks like dwarfs didn't do their job well lol.Especially compared to its final look in gow 2018, which looks like a piece of art)
