When Kratos leaves Freya’s home there’s a sudden weather change of thunderstorms. It’s because Thor arrives in Midgard to punish Modi for the death of Magni

[@hermionescranny]

Moiz I think Modi went back to Asgard to tell Thor of his failure to save his brother, Magni from Kratos and that’s when Thor punishes him for his cowardice. Also, I think the red atmosphere is Modi’s blood.

[@exis9350]

It’s actually the world mourning the death of Atreus which would have happened if he wasn’t saved. Similar to how when Poseidon was killed it caused a flood. Atreus is related to Zeus and in other scenes in the games his rage brings forth thunderstorms, lighting which are on queue with his rage. Nothing in the game is by coincidence so it’s not far fetched that he has a power related to lightning

Kratos is also related to Zeus and not much happened when he died in GoW 1.

Watching kratos actually care about the boy was the craziest character development we've ever seen in gaming history.

[@Madheim777]

well, Kratos always loved his wife and daughter on the previous saga. in Chains of Olympus, when he was given the chance to enter the Elysium Fields and reunite with his daughter once again, he didn't hesitate to dispose of all his powers to stay with her. but after knowing that if Atlas destroyed the roots of the world Calliope would be lost cause of the Fields being destroyed as well, he didn't have another choice to abandon her there and stop Atlas, and he couldn't see her anymore. That was one of the cruelest situations Kratos had to experience, no joke why he was so full of rage and hate towards the gods. the death of his family by his own hands (not intentionally) destroyed him.

Ignatius David Partogi 2 reasons Those blades caused the death of the gods, and thus plunged the world into chaos, therefore ‘blades of chaos’ Developers forgot.

[@puffpuffpassmako]

The blades of chaos were never destroyed. Ares ripped them off and plunged them into his family during their fight. After, Athena gifted kratos with brand new blades called the blades of Athena, which she then turned into the blades of exile, which were then destroyed. So knowing kratos, he retrieved the blades of chaos after his fight with ares and refused to use them again, and kept them as a reminder of his failure

[@puffpuffpassmako]

@Ignatius David Partogi then how are they in this game? And yes they were destroyed, the chains and handles were severed off

@Ignatius David Partogi there is no plot hole dude, the blades of chaos were never destroyed, just replaced. Kratos could have easily gone back to retrieve them after his battle with ares
