My favorite detail that nearly made me cry was the last handprint. Video games always have mechanics there just for us and this game does too. In tomb raider white signifies the path, yellow in uncharted and gold runes lead the way in this game. At the end when you see that last handprint and realize that Fey was guiding us all along! That a game mechanic was given story and world importance! Her power of prophecy and ability to see the future allowed her to mark our path years in advance, long before Atreus was even born! She saw her death and knew her child and husband would need guidance and help and she gave us that. One final gift from Fey, given before he was even born. She gave Kratos a son to keep him sane and happy, an axe to keep him safe and allow him to protect his son and she gave them guidance so they could see the quest through to the end! Beautiful. This is why God of War is my favorite game.

[@MakshotMP4]

The handprint icon on story missions?

[@gamingnerd0348]

@MakshotMP4 No, the yellow runes you see throughout the game, the ones that are especially visible on climbing paths or paths you jump across. Faye placed the runes down long before she even met Kratos, I think, and Atreus points it out at the end of the game

[@AdamWoodhouse]

Bought a PS4 in Nov 2019. This was the first game I purchased because of it's reputation. It did not disappoint. It was excellent.

[@morganrussman]

Yeah, I bought a PS4 not long after the new year last year in 2019, and I bought a physical copy of god of war 2018 in walmart not long after, and I'm just not getting to play the newest god of war game just this month (1/2020). That was mostly due to something going wrong with the game data of the original copy of god of war 2 I got. There was a slight glitch if you would want to call it that prevented me from continuing to a different area of the game. I eventually got a new copy of the game and was able to play the game. I was able to blow through the rest of the game along with god of war 3 and eventually god of war ascension, and now I'm on the newest god of war now.

Did anyone else think Atreus would be revealed as the reincarnation of Tyr?! The way they say Atreus is very intelligent for his age, great with languages and technology (helps you through traps and mechanisms) and he likes to help others.. not to mention how he feels a connection with Tyr. I really thought that he would be revealed as a reincarnation or rebirth of Tyr as a backup plan of his and Fey. I like the Loki angle too tho! It fits perfectly with the story once you look back and notice all of the signs like the mistletoe.

[@bingobob8585]

Takeo Masaki yes he is. Why would she call him Loki after the Nordic god the people who were the sworn enemies of the giants. And there are a lot of things in the game that hint towards him being the trickster god.

[@Septimius]

The moment I saw mistletoe, I realized Atreus is Loki. I'm Norwegian and know Norse mythology, so it was a bit obvious. A lot in the game is, when you know the story. The creators decided to utilize the fact that Odin and Frigg are mirrored in Od (Oðr) and Freya. It's Frigg who is the mother of Baldr, but in the game it's Freya. Frigg and Freya are probably the same person, same as Odin and Oðr, so it's a clever sleight of hand that obscured it a bit for me.

[@uzairansari9222]

Why? Whats the connection between mistletoe and loki?

[@Septimius]

@@uzairansari9222 Baldr was plagued by dreams of his own death, so his mother Frigg (Odin is his father) travels the land and makes everyone and literally everything promise they will never hurt Baldr. Frigg does not ask this of the tiny mistletoe, for it is so small and innocent. Later, all the gods attack Baldur with all sorts of stuff, because it does nothing. Baldr's blind brother Hod fires an arrow that Loki has laid on his bow, an arrow of mistletoe. It kills Baldr. So it's massaged for this story, but most Norwegians will remember the connection between Loki, the mistletoe and Baldur. Loki kills Baldur with the mistletoe.

Thank you

[@Septimius]

@@TheKat12364 Oh man, if anyone was ever upset over inconsistencies in Norse, they need to find some other stories. These things are a ragged carpet held together by small pieces of strings. Odin and Od is PROBABLY the same person, and it's all just such an amalgamation of germanic and nordic folk lore that it's basically just to have cool stories to tell our kids about how the earth was made. So, absolutely no worries! It helps to understand the material it's made from.

J D do you have to beat the trials twice?

[@wiffgunderwanted]

@Mann Holloway After you beat them and the Valkyrie for the first time, they give you new challenges to beat. There are 6 swords and each of them have just 1 challenge this time. They are essentially just harder versions of the other challenges you did. If you beat at least 3 of them you have enough keys to do the final challenge which is where the Valkyrie was. The final challenge is 1 of 3 challenges at random where depending on how good you do will affect your reward. If you can't get the bronze reward you can retry.

SPOILERS MY DUDES;; I started REALLY guessing Atreus was Loki when he was given the mistletoe arrows. I love Norse mythology so I got really excited when that happened. By that time we already know that the Stranger is Baldr - and in Norse myth, Baldr’s “Achilles’ heel” is mistletoe, and he is killed when Loki tricks a blind brother into shooting him with a mistletoe arrow. So that lowkey gave it away for me?? I just fricking love this game and its attention to detail. Little things like that only add to the whole experience. God damn it’s good.

[@horusnajtling528]

Kratos will kill Thor, and merge his Axe with Mjolnir makeing Stormbreaker! :D And Odin would kidnap Atreus/Loki, who will belive his real father died, or even betrayed him. Kratos, to get back his son, will fight and kill all the Nordic Gods, and then fight with Loki, who in anger for Odins plans will destroy all Asgard.

[@grimswipe6280]

Let's not forget that in the elevator in Tyr's temple, it showed Tyr visiting different cultures, including Egypt and Japan as mentioned in the video, but also showed Tyr visiting a Central American civilization, probably the Aztecs but maybe the Maya. I don't know about anyone else, but I'd love to see Kratos vs. Aztec pantheon, maybe have a new weapon in the form of a macuahuitl (if you don't know what that is, look it up, I think it'd be a perfect weapon for some brutal combat)

I know I'm kinda late on this but shortly after you finally kill Baldur, Atreaus and Kratos are talking and I don't remember exactly, but Atreaus said something like "would you let me kill you" and Kratos said "if it means that you would live, yes". So I feel like that's going to be foreshadowing for future games. Idk if I'm dumb and everyone already saw and realized that but I thought it was cool.

[@smolotovcocktail7167]

Jaco King I believe it was “would you die for me”

And even in the mural(wall) at the end of the game, you can can see Atreus holding unto Krato’s body and a serpent coming down from Atreus’ mouth unto Kratos. Either he’ll sacrifice himself, or Atreus will have to forcefully kill Kratos to safe himself.

[@AmazingFrenchman]

The huge scar Kratos has on his belly isn't from God of War 3, you actually shownthe footage from when he got that scar, it's at the beginning of God of War II when Zeus "Kills" Kratos and sends him to Hades down the Styx. Also the Puny reference, you could have noted that since he is Loki the joke works.

[@borisbertin302]

He also has a few more unknown children with Sigyn, a goddess. Though one of his sons died since the other gods got pissed off, turned one son into a wolf and the wolf then killed the other brother - they then used the dead brother's entrails to bind Loki down to a slab of stone, put a snake above his head and left him there with the snake dripping venom onto his face. ...I know this was their revenge for Balder's death, but they went a bit overboard (BOTH sons gone? I feel bad for Sigyn since she was innocent and now childless.).
