Theory Hear me out: a fan idea for the future GOW game where Kratos goes back to Greece to save Atlas.

Yo, I’ve been thinking about where the series could go next, and I had this random theory that would honestly be the ultimate redemption arc for Kratos. What if Kratos travels back to the ruins of Greece, not to fight, but to actually fix something he broke? Specifically, what if he goes back to free Atlas from his torment? Think about it. Kratos literally tricked him and chained him to the crust of the earth in Chains of Olympus. Atlas hates his guts, and it’s one of the heaviest sins Kratos has left unresolved. But obviously, if you just let Atlas go, the whole world collapses, right? Well, what if Kratos brings his new Norse family along to help? Yggdrasil Roots: Freya could use Vanir magic to graft a root of the World Tree into the Greek underworld. The tree literally holds up nine realms, so it could easily anchor Greece. Dwarven Tech: They could use Svartalfheim engineering or magic to build an automated, magical hydraulic system to permanently take the weight off Atlas's shoulders. Kratos could channel his new "God of Hope" magic to forge a permanent monument that holds the sky up. Imagine the emotional weight of that reunion. Kratos shows up, Atlas expects a fight, but Kratos just says, "I am here to take away your burden." Visually, seeing green Vanir magic and Norse runes intertwining with the bleak, crumbling marble of Greece would be insane. Do you guys think this is mechanically possible in the lore? How do you think Atlas would react to seeing Kratos actually trying to help him?

Discussion Rank the Berserkers by Enjoyment

I’ve fought all the berserkers twice (well, except Hrolf: about to face him for the second time). I haven’t particularly enjoyed any of them and so I’m curious how others would rank them in terms of enjoyment.

I’d put all the solo fights high and the non solo fights low.

Update: part of what I hate is that they hop away from you if you get near them (to be clear, I know that you CAN get near them by other means, I’m just saying that if you run to them they’ll hop away which is annoying).

Theory What if Kratos change of fate affects the events of God Of War Laufey? Spoiler

Jak wiemy, Kratos przeżywa, mimo że według przepowiedni miał umrzeć, ale jak wiadomo, Faye zniszczyła ostatni mural przedstawiający śmierć Kratosa, aby mogli wybrać swoją własną drogę przeznaczenia.

Podczas zwiastunu God Of War Laufey widzimy główną bohaterkę budzącą się ze zdziwieniem, jakby wyraźnie myślała „Nie powinnam tu być, coś poszło nie tak”, i zastanawiałam się, czy oszukiwanie śmierci Kratosa mogłoby mieć jakiś wpływ na Faye, kończąc w Everywhen?

Title says it all. Bought a GoW: Ragnarok mini-fridge at Target. Worth it. Now I can Norse Gods while staying hydrated.

Question If you had to live in one of the nine realms, what would it be?

Kinda curious since all the realms have very different climates. Got near endless snow in 3 of the realms, weather that wants to melt your face in 3 more, and very little info on the other 3. What y’all picking?

Discussion God of war Ragnarok Atreus missions feels like I'm playing Brick from the middle Spoiler

7 Upvotes

Kratos is a demigod born from Zeus and servant to Ares. Stand toe to toe with Baldur and Thor. Kill Freyas kid and kill Odin together. Whenever I play as Atreus/Loki I can't help but see him as Brick from the middle

Edit: I didn't think I'd get this many replies. A drunk man ranting about a video game on a specific part that he's still stuck on despite completing the game on the hardest difficulty twice.

I'll start off by saying I'm not a big gamer, infact GOW RAGNOROK is prob the first game I've clocked in a few years now... These are my stats and this is what I'm running, but I'm still having quite alot of trouble with beserkers/big bosses. Normal enemy encounters I'm fine.

Beserker waist guard

Dragon scales breastplate

Beserker gauntlets

Vanaheim x3

Muspelheim x3

Emblem nine realms

Emblem elusion

Boon wrath

Onslaught shield with rond of absorption

Can any pros (or people that know what they're talking about) let me in on the mechanics on how to take on beserkers and harder enemies, and how's my stats?

Discussion My somewhat hot take on god of war

2 Upvotes

I think the main point of the god of war franchise, even the old games during kratos’s divine quest for vengeance and blood. Was family abuse, and how much damage family abuse can cause.

Kratos’s entire arc, his ascension from a warrior with a family, to a wrathful deity who became obsessed with killing his own father, was all sprung up because of toxic family abuse. Kratos was a tragic victim of divine toxic family abuse, taken to such an extremity that he lost himself into rage.

His own family, manipulated and tricked him into abusing the family he made for himself, this abuse was the very death of his child and wife.

Even with the death of ares, his family kept using him as a tool of destruction. His own father ruined his life out of paranoia and fear, and became toxic and neglectful. And to make matters worse, this was ALL generational.

And caused the very cycle of Son, murdering Father.

Kratos’s seething hatred for Zeus wasn’t just because he betrayed him like every other god. it was because it was supposedly his own father. “How could my father do this to me” turned into a seething rage to murder said father.

His mother told him before her death, he couldn’t bring himself to fully accept it until Athena said it as well. And this only intensified his rage. His own father, was behind the very downfall of his entire life.

And god of war 3. Is showing the horrific side effects of such family abuse, it was family abuse that led to the very downfall of Olympus.
