[@Kaijugan]

For those of you curious. The reason why Kratos reacted so harshly to the implication that the Aesir harmed a guest is because in Greece, hospitality is very sacred. Even in the Laconic City of Sparta.

[@kinagrill]

A tradition that became part of the Roman empire and even survived into the middle ages of knights and such where Hospitality was a basic 'law' that if you broke it, you were if, lucky enough, a permanent social outcast. If not so lucky, you'd not be a knight anymore.

[@BerryFruit]

Huh, I didn't know that. I assumed he reacted that way because when he learned of what happened between the Aesir and Freyr as a guest, Kratos may have thought of Atreus (since at this point in the story, Atreus is a guest in Asgard) and maybe started to "worry".

[@koldfire7253]

There was once a powerful and strategic king who was extremely courageous and always cared for his people. Even so far as he himself accepted death rather than giving up his city. His famous words were "THIS..... IS...... SPARTAAAA!!!!"

[@Bman32x]

Same when Mimir said “what the hell is an olive?” Produce would not have made its way up north and not spoiled. Nvm the realms stayed separate.

[@Kaijugan]

@@Bman32x That’s not necessarily true. There was a very robust trade network during the Bronze Age between England and Greece as Tin was a big export in the area and was key to creating bronze. So I’m rather surprised that there wasn’t at least some trade involving Olive Oil.

Kratos canonically fought in the Trojan War...holy shit

[@shock226]

remind me what that was

[@kjj26k]

@@shock226 The Trojan War is that conflict depicted in the _Iliad_ and from which Odysseus gets lost trying to return home from in the _Odyssey._ It's basically World War Mythological Greece. Almost all the gods are involved in either side and every Greek kingdom comes together to attack Troy. It lasted ten years.

[@frankwest5388]

@@shock226 most famous fictional war in myth. Long story short, there was a war, where the invaders couldn’t breach the city walls and the defenders could get a solid position to break the siege. This ended when Odysseus (Greek Hero that is super clever) faked a surrender, where he left a massive wooden horse behind, claiming it was a symbol of their surrender. This tricked the Trojans into opening their gates and bringing the horse into their city walls. So, once their defense was down, a hidden hatch in the horse opened from inside, releasing dozens of Greek soldiers that used the confusion to open the gates and let everyone in, breaking the siege and winning the war. Every since the term “Trojan horse” gets used as a shorthand for something that looks good but in actuality will do harm

[@jaysilverhood1264]

Chronologically the Greek timeline is already muddled at best buy I go with the wiki's approach that everything already happened with some wiggleroom in between. We don't know how long Kratos was a god.

Yup. Some of Kratos' knowledge include: - Building and playing a lyre. - Vast knowledge of Greek theatre and literature. - Being the authority in terms of ideals such as vengeance and fighting fate. - Architecture, considering he built their house. - A skilled military leader, though that's pretty obvious from the first game.

[@N_E_K_K_O]

"They are tools. For specific tasks. A preference would be meaningless" "I Like the axe" "I too like the axe" That line is something I can't stop laughing at. it's just hilarious the way he admitted his preference after saying a preference would be meaningless

[@AQWninjanani]

It is more wholesome for me cause it was from faye his wife thats why hes bias to the axe

[@KenshiImmortalWolf]

I like to read it as he says there's no preference in which one for Fighting, doesn't mean he doesn't have a favorite as items not weapons.

[@mqr1939]

Someone already gave a good explanation on why Kratos said that he likes the Leviathan Axe and I would like to point it out here too. It is obvious that Kratos would like the axe more than any other weapon because: 1. The axe was Faye's and it is the only memory he has left from her (well, apart from her ashes, of course) and 2. Atreus said he likes the axe and Kratos loves his son, thus it is plain obvious that Kratos wants to make him happy and, although he may not have a favourite weapon, it is enough to approve Atreus, because he knows that it would make him happy. Simple as that! To be honest, I love how Kratos went from "Zeus, your son has return! I bring the destruction of Olympus!" to "Loki will go. Atreus remains!". It is really wholesome and admirable at the same time!

[@justincummings5022]

[@leonshirogane5541]

I love the conversation of Atreus liking someone, especially the way Kratos asks “is there someone?”. He says with so much genuine curiosity, like he was caught off guard a bit by the idea of Atreus finding someone and is interested in learning who it might be that caught Atreus’s eye. He also sounds a bit concerned, partly because he’s not sure if this someone is a trustworthy person, but I think mostly because he’s asking himself “did I teach Atreus well enough to love?” As we know in the post game where he ask Mimir just that. Genuine curiosity, concern over the person trustworthiness, and of course if Atreus is prepared for love All that in the span of 3 words Laconic indeed (tho probably just me over analyzing)

A lot of content to parse through here - here's a little guide to make it easier. :D 00:00 Atreus Kratos and Mimir Part 1 11:15 Freya Kratos and Mimir Part 1 50:00 Atreus Kratos and Mimir Part 2 1:15:52 Atreus and Kratos on FAYE 1:29:35 Freya, Kratos and Mimir ENDGAME

[@st5299]

Loved the list, truly appreciated the work to make it. Perhaps next would be the difference between Atreus and Freya dialogue when participating in side quests. Such as the song of the sands, getting Lunda’s orb, getting the elf journal, etc?

[@VideoGameSophistry]

@@st5299 So THAT would require another 65 hour playthrough - don't think I'll be doing that one

[@st5299]

Fair enough. Sorry for the troublesome request. However upon watching the vid, I think you might have missed a few. Such as Mimir telling Atreus and Kratos about the four soul parts.

[@VideoGameSophistry]

@@st5299 Not technically a boat or sled story

[@st5299]

Ah I see, thanks for telling me about that.

[@adoptedmoth]

I don't know how they'd work this into a topic of conversation but I would have liked to see Kratos talk to Atreus about Calliope

[@romeojohnson5142]

Even though i have beaten the game twice, I still come back to these videos just incase I miss something. Good work bruh. 💯💯

[@statera5854]

"I would've beaten you" Mimir: "the ghost of Sparta? Nahhhh"

Thank you for putting these in order dude, its so nice to hear half a story end and hear it be picked back up right after

[@bdot4913]

Holy crap that was beautifully created and well put together

I hope in the next game, Mimir will be the more mythological storyteller guy. In GOW 4 he absolutely nailed it. In Ragnarök, he didn't really gave the same storytelling vibes as the previous game and was more of a main friend character (which is ofcourse awesome!), but I hope they don't dwell on his true mythological character

[@clutchcake7717]

All I can say is Thank you for this.

[@dejected107]

47:55 knowing gow games is all about Mythology with a twist, I looked up this lake nymph mimir speaks about "Nimue" Turns out Nimue is actually the name of lady of the lake from the Mythology of king Arthur and the Knight's of Camelot. Mimirs homeland is Briton. The berserker bosses are also from Briton.

[@elgordo2162]

14:15 oo, I feel Kratos took that dangerous tone at the implication since Greeks were all about hospitality of one's guests.

[@godsgif862]

Hello I truly appreciate your content and the time n effort you put into it Especially this video

Thank you so much for this, I was waiting a full comp. I really hope you make the full full (2018 and GOWR) compilation one day ♥

god-tier dialogue all throughout the whole thing. pun intended.

[@bamstewart9725]

Appreciate you VGS

[@locomojoboy2]

When I got to the Crater in Vanaheim and Atreus was giving his dialogue relating to what we were doing, I thought it would be so much cooler if Freya were here instead as she could share more knowledge and information about the region. So after flooding the riverbed, I halted doing anything there until I got Freya back which was post-game. I was so disappointed that she provided no special dialogue anywhere except for the wishing well. I regretted not finishing the crater with Atreus. Now I can see what I may have missed with him.

[@micoandreimanzarate1646]

That "physical or magical..." had me rolling 😂

[@DotHackerBlackWing]

i just realized the nymph, Nimue also known as Vivien, Mimir is talking about is the Lady In the Lake from Arthurian legend.

[@JayAshBranAudioScripts]

I thought mimir learning broks riddle would be as hilarious as it tortured him. Now that I’ve finished the game…I really wish we didn’t have to learn the answer like that

[@Tarnthewarrior]

5:24 probably the only time Kratos shows humer

[@roberthelmey205]

Very well done. Appreciate the time it took to bring all these moments into one video. Just one question: the section with Kratos and Atreus learning about Faye in Vanaheim where the other frozen lightning is; wasn't the dialogue different if Kratos went through that with Freya? If so, I don't recall seeing that in this vid.

[@VideoGameSophistry]

Indeed it was but I didn’t do that

The story Mimir tells of the brothers seeking wisdom is one of my favorites

[@Possiblekim]

Man, what would I not give to subcribe to Mimir's podcast

[@brimstoneclub]

The fact Mimir mentioned Nimue gave me the most ridiculous hope that Arthurian legend would be the next storyline for the God of War series. There aren't any gods in Camelot, but plenty of sorcerers.
