Look at 11:32. In that moment, Kratos realizes that Atreus is becoming a steel hearted, cold, calculating general who is there to win regardless of the cost. Kratos is not a talker, he is not a philosopher, he's a warrior who has seen war, and he believes that words ring hollow against the sound of inaction. However, he knew in this moment he had to speak to his son, and that if he did not, Atreus would become everything Kratos wanted to leave behind in Greece; everything he tried to hide from his son manifesting within him. They turned GoW from a fun, well made hack-and-slash god killing palooza to a deep, well written, thoughtful story about war and how it affects and changes people, and how we can be better.

[@Cold.brewwoo]

Kratos choking up when telling Atreus to open his heart to the Midguardians suffering, is everything I wanted from him last game. A truly sensational experience this series has become.

[@geekymetalhead5112]

"Atreus and I will be enough" "That's suicide" Yeah, and it'll be worse if God forbid they kill Atreus in front of him *even though I'm sure he's okay in the end*

[@mr.endren1229]

In that case, not only Odin will get it (Kratos would surely have won alone in that case). Kratos alone will become the Ragnarök of all nine kingdoms

Seeing Freyr die breaks my heart dude, like they kept his end from myth in mind, but in doing so cost Freya everything. Her son, her brother, so many centuries of her own life, and countless lives of her people, and now she just has to keep living for the ones that she has left. It's such a tragic end for someone who was already characterized mostly through her suffering.

In all seriousness the character development of Kratos since the first games is phenominal writing.
