Except the MCU version of Loki is witty, handsome, cunning, and downright charming.

@@kartikeyamisra1386 This is manipulation, people shouldn't trust others for theirs actions or words when they are convenient for them at a certain point of time and when things hit the fan, turn theirs back or give excuses or back stab you.

Yeah, some villains are VERY skilled at that, so much that you don't realize they're the bad guy until much later when their true colors and intents show through.
Well yeah Kratos doesn't want his son do be a killer or get hurt. Thor wants to see Loki either do well enough in combat to impress him or fail enough to die or at least get laughed at. Either way it's a win-win for Thor and a lose-lose for Kratos.

@@Mannyhdz0052 In the first game, the serpent imbued the axe with eitr. In norse mythology, eitr is basically the stuff of creation from the beginning of the universe. Like a primordial ooze, from which all life sprang forth with the first giant Ymir. Jormungandr is full of this stuff, which can poison and kill gods. This is why in the final battle of ragnarok, thor defeats the serpent but is poisoned and takes 9 steps before collapsing from the poison. So thats why his wound doesn't heal, because it can't.
It's cool that this alliance/Their sibling relationship It's a reference not only to Marvel but also to the original Norse Mythology where the two had several adventures together as Thor really enjoyed Loki's company because he was intelligent and smart I wish the game had more missions with the 2 of them,for example them in the village under Asgard,them in Hellhaim and also in Midgard since there is a story about Thor and Loki together Where it involves the challenge and trap of the giants Where the giants try to kill the 2 in a betrayal but Thor and Loki kill them all and there are Thor's goats in this story where Thor loses the challenge and was defeated by the giants in a game that was humiliating and shameful For him and also in the story of the hammer theft,Thor and Loki go to Iontuhaim together and there Thor dresses up as a bride according to Loki's idea It's a shame that these stories didn't happen or weren't mentioned Like the story of the kidnapping of the Goddess Iduna and her apples that It was mentioned in 2018 And it really happened and in this story Loki is innocent/guilty and also a Hero helped save the Goddess And there's the story of the theft of Freya's necklace who knows,maybe a DLC could happen and Thor,Odin,Baldur,Freyr and others dead Gods come back to life and have more gods,stories,The heroes Beowulf and Siegfried/Sigurd,pets from gods,2 extra kingdoms Valhalla & a new Asgard And creatures + news Valkyries That were not shown,told or appeared in the upcoming DLC or perhaps the next game Let's hope it happens 🥹🥲🙏 like and Bye!
Thor was awesome in the game I see him like a antihero. He has been bewitched by his father to basically obey his every command. But in a way he knows a lot of what Odin tells him to do is wrong but he don't want to betray his father.
that sword that odin gave atreus, isnt that freyr's? i remember reading about norse mythology and freyr has a sword that fights for his own because freyr was the god of peace and harvest and obviously he didnt like to fight

If Odin did not kill Thor I wonder if he Atreus and maybe Kratos would become friends. Maybe Thor would’ve become the new guardian of the Jotnar as penance for nearly wiping them out
“Didn’t think you would need my help since you defeated all those trials, or did you watch your father do it?” 😂 after thinking about it…. Yes he did 😂😂
Loki...even in the original mythology, is never the one to betray his friends and family. He was misunderstood, the Aesir constantly mocked him no matter how much he helped them. If Atreus is to be a villain, then he's a villain only to the antagonistic Aesir...Odin in particular.
