Hey All! Thank you so much for watching these trailers with me. Unfortunately, the video got copyright claimed. Because I have decided to no longer mute sections of my videos to get around these claims, I would greatly appreciate it if you watched another one of my videos. Thanks again! You guys are the best! -H
I know it's abit of a commitment like watching a series but I would love to see you watch all the cutscenes of a game in a video. Cut scenes are like regular scenes but their in-between the game itself. I'd just be very interested in your opinion on the actual story.
I never expected you to reference the drinking game I suggested in the previous video *IN* an actual video!! Definitely brought a smile to my face immediately!!
Also I wanna point out that Kratos is voiced by Christopher Judge and Atreus is Sunny Suljic. He voiced Atreus as a kid and so has naturally grown older which I feel like is a very cool feature and adds to the authenticity of the role.
God of War is another series i feel gets misunderstood my some fans. the first trilogy is about the self destructive nature of revenge, and some took it as an unironic revenge story and felt it was shallow as a result. the new games seem to be about growing as a person, still carrying the weight of your mistakes and being thrust into parenthood
shallow? the dude litteraly fall into madness for being toyed. the curse of parricide and the fact he was a bastard (the other meaning...well all meaning works actually) make it almsot impossible that it doesn't end in blood.
@@unlimited971 Yeah i find it like, a wild almost intentional misreading of the story. then again i think we take the modern respect for narrative in mainstream gaming for granted; i distinctly remember articles dismissing the story of halo 2 as "who cares we all just wanna shoot aliens"
@@ayanleman really? i need the context geographic and temporal on that one. but oh well there is always some idiots that disregard completely the story, good or not. for exemple i had someone b****ing abotu ff14 story because too much to read. high chance of troll but really? ti's like saying book's stories are boring cause too much reading. people sometimes jsut to wanna admit they are lazy fluff that never took the time to read and now they can't even enjoy it/ do it without it taxing them mentally. that's like the ones watching anime only or dub only simply because they don't read fast enough. hence tantrum" dub is superior sub is trash" no timmy you're simply too close for being illetrate, you know it and think you can keep hiding it .
@@unlimited971 the article was american and just after the launch of halo 2. I do remember thinking "wow rude someone spent time writing this" but it was so long ago idk
Technically this is the end of the Norse saga, considering everybody dies after Ragnarok, can't wait for Kratos to fight the Egyptian Gods and the Japanese Gods. Also I recommend reacting to more fallout and maybe some mortal kombat.
@Fixy Lieberus even if he climbs out hell, which he has done, he still has to die first. Will find it funny though, he climbs out of Hel's domain only to find that his son followed in his footsteps and killed the Norse's world in a bid to murder Odin.
@Fixy Lieberus Here's the thing though. Kratos loved his wife and there's a very real possibility that he could be with her again in death. She probably even forsaw it. Their son is a man(or atleast will be by the time the game is done) and so he has no real reason to want to remain among the living. He can protect himself and doesn't need dad to do it for him.(plus he has his own weird as hell family to start making) I think kratos will die and through death find peace with faye and choose to remain dead, sort of like retirement.
@@leonardocastro410 He might very well die and it might be poetic but if you honestly think Sony and Santa Monica Studios is going to retire this cash cow of a series while its still popular your kidding yourself. Theyll make up a reason for the death to be undone. I kind of like the idea of the Egyptian god of resurrection and the dead Osiris bringing him back to life in their universe to fight in his continuous struggle against Set god of destruction, chaos and the desert.
Because you asked: The truth Kratos wants to keep secret from his son is that he killed untold numbers of people, including his first family (unintentionally) and the entire Greek pantheon (and his father Zeus). He fears that the boy will be like him. In the 2018 game, Kratos discovers that the Norse God of War, Tyr, is kind of a good guy and that Odin killed him for that. But I guess Odin lied because there he is!
ofc odin wouldn't kill tyr. dude built the entire temple of the nine and everybody loved him. tyr is among the last of his people and amybe the only one knowing most of secrets apar with mimir.
The fact they are so forthcoming with Tyr is so suspicious. They could have left the question of his survival for the game, easily, but they answered it in the trailer and these guys are not stupid so they MUST have some fuckin cracked twists planned
15:25 that's Tyr the norse god of war. You spend a big portion of the previous game trying to find a hidden passage to Jotunheim following a trail of breadcrumbs he left behind. He was supposed to be dead, so seeing him in the trailer surprised a lot of people (myself included).
@@HannaHsOverInvested Everyone is in the dark regarding the new game coming out (GoW:Ragnarok), (barring what the trailer has shown), but also you are in the dark because you do not have the knowledge of the previous game (either by watching a playthrough/playing the game). Therefore you ARE missing the entire 'thread' as it were.
Kratos is a demi God from Sparta. He killed many, his family included due to Ares. He got revenge on Ares and replaced him as God of war. Then he kill all the gods of Olympus in a bid to kill Zeus who betrayed him. In the course of this he kill alot innocent people as the Greek World crumbled to ashes from the death of the Gods. Kratos didn't want his son to become like him. Someone who killed his family in bloodlust, or for revenge. The death of his family and adopted daughter (Pandora who he sacrifice to kill Zeus) at his hands fills him with regret. He want his son wants be better and not like him. To be a good man, not a mindless beast of destruction that he was so long ago. BTW have a nice day. Please review the new FF14 endwalker (long version) and have a nice day Love the video.
He's not a demi God no more he's a God. He's basically death. His purpose is to destroy pantheons. He's the reason of Ragnarok.bthat's the reason why he killed the Greek and now Norse he's a prophecy
In reference to Atreus (the son) telling Kratos (the father) he finally knew the truth, its as follows: Kratos is a god, the Greek god of war. But his godhood has only ever brought him grief. After being deceived into killing his own wife and daughter, he declared war upon the rest of the Greek pantheon in rage and sorrow. This war then wreaked havoc on the world and as the gods fell, one by one, resulting in its eventual destruction due so a number of ceaseless calamities. As a result, Kratos associates godhood with a vicious cycle of cruelty, death and grief. Because of this, following the destruction of the entire Greek pantheon and the world along with it, he left in exile to a new land (the land of Norse mythology), where he married anew, concealing his godhood from his new son and raising him as a human. When Kratos says the boy is cursed, what he meant was that he was cursed to have him as a father, to have his father’s godhood forced upon him as lineage and thus all that Kratos associates with it. The truth that Atreus thinks he learned is that Kratos believes he is cursed to be weak and that he is therefore an unworthy son. The real truth that Kratos was hiding was actually that Atreus was part god and was thus incredibly powerful, a truth that he felt he needed to conceal to give Atreus any chance at a peaceful life
I'd highly recommend watching the entire God of War series Timeline videos to get a sense of Who Kratos is, who Atreus Is and know both Greek and Norse Sagas
I really like the second trailer, I've forgotten about it and seeing it after playing the game it gets me emotional and makes me want to play it again. I'm still surprised you don't react more to stuff like Life is Strange, maybe because those games are not very popular in your audience, but imo those are some of the best type of games for non-gamers. You literally don't have to do much, just move around, talk to people and make choices, and the stories are great and emotional.
Listen, don't let comments get you down. Everyone start's as a "Gamer" at some point, and it's so much daunting to get into it as an adult rather than starting as a child. Everyone is more entertained and enthusiastic by the genres that they are interested in. If someone were to tell me I had to watch all the Battle Royale game trailers I'd be half asleep within 10 minutes.
The talking severed head is Mimir, who was imprisoned in an unbreakable tree by Odin. Kratos chops Mimir’s head off and uses Freya’s magic to revive him.
@@HannaHsOverInvested Freya is the lady talking in the first trailers, the one whose voice you thought you recognized, and the one who transforms into a bird and attacks them in the last one.
Its a good thing youre not posting only what you think we'd enjoy or agree with. The whole point of being intrigued by a channel about a non-gamer watching game related content is too see your POV on it all.
Hi! So I discovered your channel through your watching gaming for a non-gamer video not too long ago and immediately loved your energy and content. I have now watched about half a dozen of your videos, from your edited livestream vids to your nongamer watches, and I would like to make a suggestion. I think of all the games I’ve seen you cover, the newest god of war games (god of war 2018 and god of war ragnarok) are the games that you would enjoy the story of the most. I actually teach this game in my high school mythology class due to how good the story is, and cannot recommend them highly enough. Barring that, though, I also think you could get almost as good an experience from watching all of the cutscenes from the 2 games as a movie of sorts. There are several videos here on youtube that compile all the cutscenes together for people to watch, and especially after having watched your video on wandavision, I would absolutely love to see your take on the story of these two games. Thank you so much for everything you do!
Dunno if you've ever seen Stargate, but Kratos (the angry axe and shield guy) is voiced by Teal'c I've never been a fan of the God Of War games, but the acting in the fourth one was absolutely superb.
Ooooh good recommendation. Love me some Monster Hunter, those games are so goofy and fun, yet really damn hard and complex. I'd love to see Hannah react to the cooking cutscenes in those games too.
God of War is one of those games that's fit to be a film series. There's so much great writing in the 2 games that it's such a shame for them to be locked away in a game that not everyone can experience
Hey HananH, just stumbled on your videos but cool seeing them (like them a lot). If i can offer a suggestion and it can be that your already doing this so not sure if this is relevant in any way. You should do these reaction videos on Twitch, you will have an audience there and the the chat (from looking at your comments) will have lots of fun giving your a lot of the backstory on these videos. just my suggestion anyways, if you are already doing so please attach a link to your channel but if not its super easy to setup and i think you will also have lots of fun doing it. great job :)
Hi Hannah love your channel! Discovered it from the Fallout video and has since seen atleast a couple dozen videos of yours. Keep being honest keep being you, it's okay not to like something. Your reactions are genuine which I don't feel I get from most other react channels. Keep up the good work!! :)
Tyr is a Norse god of war, justice, and order. We don't know much about him, except he lost his hand to the wolf Fenris. In the trailer he still has his hand which makes sense, since Fenris is the child of Loki (the surely teenage son in the trailer) and Angrboda, the mother of monsters (the black woman in the end.) What doesn't make much sense is that in the myths Jörmungand, the world serpent, the giant one in the sea, is also one of the sons of Loki and Angrboda, so who knows.
The girl you said you wanted to know more about in the end is Angrboda, one of Loki's 3 wives! Together, they create (birth?) Fenrir the wolf, and the wolf later bites of Tyr's hand during the time of Ragnarok. It's a wild mythos, to be sure. I'm not sure how much inspiration/liberty the game's story will take from the old Edda, but it clearly already stands quite far apart from the original stories for the sake of an engaging story for modern audiences with their favorite fantasy character, Kratos.
So, I just found your channel 2 days ago and I'm in love. The video-game industry is so male centric that even women who talk about it from the inside have to abandon their feminine eye altogether. You must be the only person I know who expresses their liking of eye candies, for example, and that's something even the most brave video game journalist wouldn't admit - but you do, along with 100 other things which make watching your channel so refreshing. Anyway, I would love to see how you would reach to the This Is EVE Online trailer of EVE Online. It's a trailer made of the recordings of players as they were playing the game.
The reason why those two meeting is cool: Not really a game knowledge thing, more a Mythology knowledge thing. Kratos the new god of war... Who killed the entire Greek Panteon meets Tyr the Norse god of war... Basically it's a ""ermergerd, one god of war meets another..."
Tyr is another Norse god. He is important in the mythology. The son is named Atreus, but his mother named him Loki to her people who are frost Giants. The story goes along the lines of the Norse tale Ragnarok aka the end of days
Hello Hannah, Jut wanted to say, I have been watching this channel for quite a while and just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your realness and how unfiltered you are with your opinions and thoughts. It really is refreshing to see someone not overacting or exaggerating themselves but just being honest with themselves and their audience. Like or hate, it is authentic and much appreciated.
The teenage girl is Angrboda, the incarnation of misery and demise. She's associated with the dark and with black, which is most probably why she's literally black too. Missing the bright red hair though but she's a shapeshifter, so her shape is irrelevant.
one of my favorite facts is that Kratos isn't actually white, in the very first game, before he has the ashes of his first family bound to his skin, he is much darker skinned, like a man from Niger in those times, and his daughter clearly has black hair and a darker skin tone than her mother, but lighter than kratos.
I mean he is Greek so of course his complexion would be in correlation to their environment, Greece is a sunny place and in ancient times they wear little to no clothing depending on social Status.
@@davoid1792 I went back to look, and i think you're mistaking an ancient greek style hair bun for afro textured hair. As the owner of a formidable afro myself... i dont reallty see it
I'm pretty sure he just has olive skin, and if I remember correctly his daughter had straight brown hair that was braided on the ends (Chains of Olympus and Ascension). Also Kratos always had light skin even before the ashes (as seen when he was a kid), it's just the darker scenery that made his skin look darker. Ultimately it changes nothing about his character anyway.
So the guy is Tyr Norse god of war, law and justice. Officially he is 8’5” so maybe half giant in this lore. Norse mythology has a few gods of war including Odin. Edit: I just thought of this but what if it’s not actually Odin that is the main villain of the Norse Saga but Ullr who rules while he’s gone
I usually "Like" your videos after watching them, but this time after hearing your "rant" I chose to pause the video and "Like" it then and there, then continue watching the rest.
This guy standing up was Tyr the God of War in the Nordic Mytholigy. Apperantly he's the son of Odin, Hymir(The Giant) and Frigg(The Gods Mother). Whats so interesting here are both gods of war (of the greek and nordic mythology) facing eachother. That will be interesting
People have uploaded playthroughs that basically turn God of War into the longest movie ever, someone made an 11+ hours of all four games but for God of War 4 specifically its like 5 and a half hours. I actually do recommend watching them honestly. A Full Gameplay playthrough video would be about 12-13 hours
always great to watch. question, open really, with you not muting anything and even though being copy right claimed, does this happen with all the other channels/react ppl on youtube?
I actually have no idea. I know that people with bigger channels make their real money off sponsorships, not ad revenue. Unfortunately I don't have any sponsorships, so its just ad revenue for me right now. And book sales, but that isn't super high. I hope it will be one say tho!
@@HannaHsOverInvested i have 0 idea either, but that makes sense regarding sponsors. i enjoy your channel and have been making my way thru all the game react vids, only found your channel not that long ago
I know this is an old video, but the tall man is Tyr, the Norse God of War. This game and the previous game are rooted in Norse mythology which was a departure for the series.
Watching her reacting to Jormungandr( The World Serpent) wanting to help them versus someone versed in Norse mythology would react to such an offer( hint very very very warily). Havent played the game but Ive heard enough good things that Im going to as soon as I get a new console.
im with a few of the people in the comments here hoping you can find like a comfortable way to watch like the entirety of a game. full story videos or like "cutscene movies" of games are pretty easy to find but id recommend maybe trying to watch the ones where gameplay isnt cut out because some games especially ones like god of war 2018 might be hard to follow if you arent watching the characters like traversing through the game world.
All I’m saying is…If I see a giant snake, rise up, and someone says it’s the world serpent…I’m trying to get off the planet, IMMEDIATELY. I didn’t sign up for Ragnarok lol
I've said it before, I'll say it again. The story of the God of War Norse Saga is the story of a man with exactly ONE problem solving strategy (brutal overwhelming violence) being forced to contend with problems that strategy is utterly USELESS against.
The new god of war games is so great because it shows a character who was blood thirsty to kill all of the Greek pantheon to becoming a father again and becoming human again and being very wise overtime
Tall man is Tyr, Nordic God of War. If you studied any Norse mythology you’ll know him. Yes that was Thor. The girl at the end is Angrboda, Loki’s spouse and mother of monsters. Mike Judge aka Teal'c from Stargate SG-1 is the voice of Kratos in this part of the series. In the original series he was voiced by TC Carson aka Kyle Barker from Living Single. You gotta put some Norse characters in your story!
Tyr's story is relayed to you via in-game text and dialogue during the 2018 game. So I don't expect you to know who he is at the end XD A lot of people who have played the first installment didn't even know surprisingly.
Hey Hannah, still here still one of your oldest fans XD I was wondering, I know the videos themselves are really old but do you think you'd ever go back and watch the original God of war gameplay trailers?
@@HannaHsOverInvested no he means the games that came out before these 2 games these games take place in norse mythology and the old god of war games take place in greek mythology what you just watched is the sequel reboot of the games which makes sense that you think the game called "god of war" is the first game but it is in fact the 8th game in the series
Razbuten is a channel that has a video series called, "gaming for a non gamer". He goes into different types of video games analyzes the experience of a non gamer. I think you'll like his reactions and the non gamers' reaction to different games.
I don't know if you're "Expected" to know any of this going into the game but for those who are familiar with Old Norse mythology the tall man that stands up named Týr is an old norse god who has played many roles in the sagas. Importantly this reveal though is that Týr is thought to been associated with Warfare which would make him the "Norse God of War'"*1. Which would make him semi analogous to the Greek God of War Ares which was the principle antagonist and starting point of the first God of War game back in the 2000's. So to me hearing that and seeing Týr makes it feel like they're going full circle with the games themes. *1 (in as much as any of the Norse gods can be said to be "a god of X"... The Norse deities were less personifications of aspects like the Greek or Roman gods and more gods with human personalities and hobbies. For example Óðinn is commonly today referred to as a god of wisdom, war, death, and trickery. However, unlike the Greek gods this is a misnomer as those are more themes that appear in the poems and sagas. He's a god that hung himself in order to gain knowledge of writing and magic, he tricked various entities in order to gain power and wisdom and foresight, visited dead people in order to populate an army to avoid his coming death. All of these are more fascinations rather than having power over wisdom, death, and the like. Compare that with Zeus who's the god of the sky and storms whose principle powers are related to skies and storms. Or Aphrodite the goddess of love whose principle powers included love and attraction. The Norse gods tend to be a lot more human than their counterparts in Greek, Rome, and Egypt.)
I think you'll really enjoy watching this game unfold, they did a whole Birdmanesque one-shot, which really gave the game a strong cinematic look and feel. I remember a short synopsis about the game going "it's about Kratos teaching his son Atreus how to be a god, and Atreus teaching his father how to be human". The element of "family" is so strong in all the key characters, like the dwarves, 2 brothers bickering and quarreling when all they needed was to "be friends instead". Not plunging into spoiler territory, i really feel like this whole story is worth your watch, just so you have a better grasp of what they were hinting to in the Ragnarok trailer 😁
I would love it if you could do a reaction to the full story of this God of War game. Maybe do it in parts though, because it is quite a long story lol. It's one of the most beautiful stories I've ever seen on any media and I think you'd like it if you take it slow and take the time to enjoy it before the next game comes out with more story! :D
I think you would absolutely love "Raising Kratos". It's a documentary on the making of the 2018 game (the one from the first three trailers) and it goes in depth into many aspects of game developing. It follows the game director and the many struggles that came along during development. It's interesting and heartwarming to be sincere. I think yow would love it.
Ragnarok is the Norse Apocalypse, the End of times and all things. Where All the Gods fight it out in an Epic Last Stand that ends the universe, before the shattered and broken realms coalsce back togheter to reform Creation and start anew, a never ending cycle of death, live, destruction and creation.
Remember the old days when the first trailer was dropped everybody thought the villain would be Loki?!! And the World Serpent is the first giant monster that Kratos doesn't kill immediately!
the hand print was a game mechanic but lore wise they are a marker left by Kratos' wife/atreus' mother to guide them. their journey was started by her death and final wish for her ashes to be spread in her homeland
you should make a discord server so I can rant at you about video game lore lol, cause this is dope and its awesome to see your reactions to these trailers.
the first game trailer only gives you the story of kartos and atreus relationship, in order to understand so many things in the ragnarok trailer you must have played all the past games, the big man at the end is tyr, one of the aesir on the good side who seems like he will help make with making peace instead od war
It doesn't bother me that Angrboda will be a POC because we already have a wildly displaced POC in the setting. Kratos is a foreigner in a strange land, possibly even a totally different universe from the one he destroyed. Midgard isn't Norway. Midgard is Earth and it's accompanying cosmos
Been enjoying your videos so far! Figured I should let you know about a little controversy going on in some places - due to the fact that the girl at the end is black. Some people are pretty upset about a black person being in a norse mythology game. I can understand them being fatigued with "blackwashing" but I think it'd be an excellent opportunity to seguey into the Egyptian pantheon, having that girl be half-egyptian god. Hell, it's somewhat unusual that Atreus isn't a little darker himself given Kratos's mediterranian heritage. The reason Kratos himself is so pale is because he's been cursed. But yeah, I'd really love for them to set up the Egyptian stuff and have that be a payoff instead of just having a token character - what do you think?
At the risk of sounding annoying, I highly recommend you check out Horizon Forbidden West. Both the reveal trailer and the State of Play. I’m so in love with Aloy as a character and the world Guerilla has made
If you want to watch something less lore heavy, there are a bunch of character driven animated shorts for a game called "Don't Starve." They're pretty short and most are about who a character is and/or how they ended up in the strange place that the game takes place in. There's a playlist made by Klei Entertainment that has all of them, just know that the playlist also has gameplay trailers in it that you can probably ignore. If the title of the video ends with [character name animated short], that's the one you should watch. There's also a cinematic trailer called "forbidden knowledge that you could watch as well.
Is there a better “remake” of a series, game/tv/movie/etc.? To take the history of a story, the character and everything they did, and do such a complete 180 BUT still make it fit so fucking well in the narrative. This story is so natural and good.
The woman you saw at 13:00 is the same you saw at 11:43 she is Freya mother of Baldur the guy we meet in the God Of War 2018 Freya made her son unkillable and made every object in the world swear an oath not to harm her son, so her son grew bored of centuries of immortality and not expecting to get hurt from anything so now he does not feel anything too. Kratos who are and outsider did not swear to Freya, so she helps him in exchange of not hurting her son, but Baldur are out to kill Atreus to force Kratos in a fight expecting to feel something in his fight against a god, and in the end of God of War 2018 somthing happens that made Freya angry... That's why she is attacking him in Ragnarok in 13:00 Sorry if my english is rusty but you should check his encounters with Baldur so you can learn more about the story.
If you never plan to play these games, I think you should try watching cutscene edits. Depending on the game, the cutscenes can have nearly the complete story.
Nice led.strip around the bookcase now oh and nose piercing? :) That Ferngully poster though....I feel like we need to send you a frame haha . Yes yes it bothers me clearly haah :) keep up the great work miss ! Ps there are talks of a god of war movie...who would you want to play the roles of the main cast ? :)
I have already cast my vote, and unlike a friend who thinks it is stupid to vote as it means not a thing. But I keep tell him that if anyone thinks like it is a wasted to vote because you can not effect change in our society. Ok sorry had a fight and now I'm pick on everyone. Sorry, so I will start this as should have loved the review and have a good night and a great Monday.
The tall guy at the end is Tyr the God of War. The Last trailer you watched is 2nd game's trailer, they talked about Tyr in the first game so we know who he is and what he did. This game is SOOOO GOOD. I recommend you give it a try or watch some gameplay of it. :D Loved the reaction.
I like how in the trailer Kratos teaches the kid that in order to be effective in combat you must close your heart. Which is absolute truth..in a war scenario…and the first thing a female says is - “dont do that” which is so bad in war terms. In war feeling for the enemy will get you, your team ans your loved ones killed.
"Men? We're more than that." Is not philosophical. Kratos literally is a god of war. And he is an outsider as was said - because he is from Greece. And when he told his child that he was cursed it is because the child has his blood - he is a god too and possess the same spartan rage as his father. Kratos was tricked and used by the gods of Greece which ultimately ended in him murdering his own family succumbing to madness and wiping out literally all gods of Greece. The story of the first games was about the self-destructive nature of revenge. Our "hero" literally kills himself at the end of it. But he is not allowed to die. A lot of things happen and he, standing on the ashes of the pantheon, having killed his own father... leaves. And carries that burden (of all the atrocities he had commited) with him. And in the newer games, he arrived in the north and found a new wife and a new life. He is trying to raise his son Atreus when everything goes to hell as... that is the curse of the gods. They always find each other and they always end up clashing. He is trying to raise his son to escape that vicious cycle (Remember, Zeus - Kratos' father killed his own father before that) - the clash and arrogance of power. And little Atreus has trouble handling it (as expected) - and it is a big moment for him to succumb to the power and become drunk on it... only to suffer the consequences. With the help of Kratos he learns and grows out of that. That is the thing so intense about the new games - Kratos doesn't go through a journey and change - he IS a complete character now. He went through that already. But now he has a son - and he tries to pass on the lessons he has learned. And the child makes his own mistakes - and grows as a person. Also, Atreus is a name that Kratos gave him. Loki is the name his mother gave the child - and she was one of the frost giants. What the newest (Ragnarok) will be about? I guess Atreus teenage years and coming of age. Oh and I'm kinda sure the trailer already showed us the real trouble - the girl.
Hey All! Thank you so much for watching these trailers with me. Unfortunately, the video got copyright claimed. Because I have decided to no longer mute sections of my videos to get around these claims, I would greatly appreciate it if you watched another one of my videos.
Thanks again! You guys are the best!

@@ayanleman really? i need the context geographic and temporal on that one. but oh well there is always some idiots that disregard completely the story, good or not. for exemple i had someone b****ing abotu ff14 story because too much to read. high chance of troll but really? ti's like saying book's stories are boring cause too much reading. people sometimes jsut to wanna admit they are lazy fluff that never took the time to read and now they can't even enjoy it/ do it without it taxing them mentally. that's like the ones watching anime only or dub only simply because they don't read fast enough. hence tantrum" dub is superior sub is trash" no timmy you're simply too close for being illetrate, you know it and think you can keep hiding it .
@@unlimited971 the article was american and just after the launch of halo 2. I do remember thinking "wow rude someone spent time writing this" but it was so long ago idk
Technically this is the end of the Norse saga, considering everybody dies after Ragnarok, can't wait for Kratos to fight the Egyptian Gods and the Japanese Gods. Also I recommend reacting to more fallout and maybe some mortal kombat.
I wonder in what sequel he go for Jesus, and his 12 disciples. Wonder what he will do with those Cherubs
There been talk that Kratos might die in the end. Either as the Reason why his son causes Ragnarok, or in order to save his son from it.
@Fixy Lieberus even if he climbs out hell,
which he has done, he still has to die first. Will find it funny though, he climbs out of Hel's domain only to find that his son followed in his footsteps and killed the Norse's world in a bid to murder Odin.
@Fixy Lieberus Here's the thing though.
Kratos loved his wife and there's a very real possibility that he could be with her again in death. She probably even forsaw it.
Their son is a man(or atleast will be by the time the game is done) and so he has no real reason to want to remain among the living.
He can protect himself and doesn't need dad to do it for him.(plus he has his own weird as hell family to start making)
I think kratos will die and through death find peace with faye and choose to remain dead, sort of like retirement.
@@leonardocastro410 He might very well die and it might be poetic but if you honestly think Sony and Santa Monica Studios is going to retire this cash cow of a series while its still popular your kidding yourself. Theyll make up a reason for the death to be undone. I kind of like the idea of the Egyptian god of resurrection and the dead Osiris bringing him back to life in their universe to fight in his continuous struggle against Set god of destruction, chaos and the desert.
Because you asked: The truth Kratos wants to keep secret from his son is that he killed untold numbers of people, including his first family (unintentionally) and the entire Greek pantheon (and his father Zeus). He fears that the boy will be like him.
In the 2018 game, Kratos discovers that the Norse God of War, Tyr, is kind of a good guy and that Odin killed him for that. But I guess Odin lied because there he is!
ofc odin wouldn't kill tyr. dude built the entire temple of the nine and everybody loved him. tyr is among the last of his people and amybe the only one knowing most of secrets apar with mimir.
The fact they are so forthcoming with Tyr is so suspicious. They could have left the question of his survival for the game, easily, but they answered it in the trailer and these guys are not stupid so they MUST have some fuckin cracked twists planned
mimir said in the trailer that odin insisted that tyr was not found so odin never said he killed him
@@MS-rv4bh yeah, is there a verb for bringing the apocalypse
@@MS-rv4bh i feel like "Genocide" is the corrrect word for what Kratos did... Or maybe "Decimate"???? Eradicate???
15:25 that's Tyr the norse god of war. You spend a big portion of the previous game trying to find a hidden passage to Jotunheim following a trail of breadcrumbs he left behind.
He was supposed to be dead, so seeing him in the trailer surprised a lot of people (myself included).
ohhhhhh thanks!
To be fair, all the Norse gods are war gods. 😂
Tyr is the God of justice
Also there is only 3 gods of war
@@paulmvalexander26pa Tyr is actually the god of war, and the god of order.
HannaH:"I feel like I'm missing something"
Me: Well ain't that an understatement.
not sure how to take this comment...
@@HannaHsOverInvested Pretty sure its referencing that everyone is in the dark, the game isnt out yet.
@@HannaHsOverInvested Everyone is in the dark regarding the new game coming out (GoW:Ragnarok), (barring what the trailer has shown), but also you are in the dark because you do not have the knowledge of the previous game (either by watching a playthrough/playing the game). Therefore you ARE missing the entire 'thread' as it were.
@@alancharles1681
Aptly put.
@@HannaHsOverInvested don't take it badly it soudns like a sarcasm but not with ill intent. the trailer was not very newcomer friendly.
Kratos is a demi God from Sparta. He killed many, his family included due to Ares. He got revenge on Ares and replaced him as God of war. Then he kill all the gods of Olympus in a bid to kill Zeus who betrayed him. In the course of this he kill alot innocent people as the Greek World crumbled to ashes from the death of the Gods. Kratos didn't want his son to become like him. Someone who killed his family in bloodlust, or for revenge. The death of his family and adopted daughter (Pandora who he sacrifice to kill Zeus) at his hands fills him with regret. He want his son wants be better and not like him. To be a good man, not a mindless beast of destruction that he was so long ago.
BTW have a nice day. Please review the new FF14 endwalker (long version) and have a nice day
Love the video.
I hope you have a great day too!
He's not a demi God no more he's a God. He's basically death. His purpose is to destroy pantheons. He's the reason of Ragnarok.bthat's the reason why he killed the Greek and now Norse he's a prophecy
In reference to Atreus (the son) telling Kratos (the father) he finally knew the truth, its as follows:
Kratos is a god, the Greek god of war. But his godhood has only ever brought him grief. After being deceived into killing his own wife and daughter, he declared war upon the rest of the Greek pantheon in rage and sorrow. This war then wreaked havoc on the world and as the gods fell, one by one, resulting in its eventual destruction due so a number of ceaseless calamities. As a result, Kratos associates godhood with a vicious cycle of cruelty, death and grief. Because of this, following the destruction of the entire Greek pantheon and the world along with it, he left in exile to a new land (the land of Norse mythology), where he married anew, concealing his godhood from his new son and raising him as a human.
When Kratos says the boy is cursed, what he meant was that he was cursed to have him as a father, to have his father’s godhood forced upon him as lineage and thus all that Kratos associates with it. The truth that Atreus thinks he learned is that Kratos believes he is cursed to be weak and that he is therefore an unworthy son. The real truth that Kratos was hiding was actually that Atreus was part god and was thus incredibly powerful, a truth that he felt he needed to conceal to give Atreus any chance at a peaceful life
I'd highly recommend watching the entire God of War series Timeline videos to get a sense of Who Kratos is, who Atreus Is and know both Greek and Norse Sagas
As a writer You have to go through the entire god of war game.. the story is off the charts trust me.
I'm surprised Hannah didn't notice that the same woman helping them in the first 2 trailers is attacking him in the 3rd
I really like the second trailer, I've forgotten about it and seeing it after playing the game it gets me emotional and makes me want to play it again. I'm still surprised you don't react more to stuff like Life is Strange, maybe because those games are not very popular in your audience, but imo those are some of the best type of games for non-gamers. You literally don't have to do much, just move around, talk to people and make choices, and the stories are great and emotional.
You really need to check out Magic the Gathering trailers, even though it's just a card game it has so much story and plot
Thanks!
no one needs to check out those trailers, wack
Listen, don't let comments get you down. Everyone start's as a "Gamer" at some point, and it's so much daunting to get into it as an adult rather than starting as a child. Everyone is more entertained and enthusiastic by the genres that they are interested in. If someone were to tell me I had to watch all the Battle Royale game trailers I'd be half asleep within 10 minutes.
The talking severed head is Mimir, who was imprisoned in an unbreakable tree by Odin. Kratos chops Mimir’s head off and uses Freya’s magic to revive him.
interesting! Thank you!
@@HannaHsOverInvested Freya is the lady talking in the first trailers, the one whose voice you thought you recognized, and the one who transforms into a bird and attacks them in the last one.
It’s short but sweet but you should look at Sid meiers civilization 5: A brave new world intro. Very uplifting
Or 6 any of the games expansion are nice
Thanks!
@@HannaHsOverInvested almost all the Civs are great, but, I definitely say, the trailers for 6 are fascinating
Its a good thing youre not posting only what you think we'd enjoy or agree with. The whole point of being intrigued by a channel about a non-gamer watching game related content is too see your POV on it all.
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hi! So I discovered your channel through your watching gaming for a non-gamer video not too long ago and immediately loved your energy and content. I have now watched about half a dozen of your videos, from your edited livestream vids to your nongamer watches, and I would like to make a suggestion. I think of all the games I’ve seen you cover, the newest god of war games (god of war 2018 and god of war ragnarok) are the games that you would enjoy the story of the most. I actually teach this game in my high school mythology class due to how good the story is, and cannot recommend them highly enough. Barring that, though, I also think you could get almost as good an experience from watching all of the cutscenes from the 2 games as a movie of sorts. There are several videos here on youtube that compile all the cutscenes together for people to watch, and especially after having watched your video on wandavision, I would absolutely love to see your take on the story of these two games. Thank you so much for everything you do!
Dunno if you've ever seen Stargate, but Kratos (the angry axe and shield guy) is voiced by Teal'c
I've never been a fan of the God Of War games, but the acting in the fourth one was absolutely superb.
they made thor fat. which is actually more accurate I suppose.
according to the sagas that lad can EAT.
wont save him from dying of jörmungandr.
I think you'd enjoy reacting to the monster hunter intros. It is pretty crazy how far the series has come.
monster hunter... noted. Thanks!
Ooooh good recommendation. Love me some Monster Hunter, those games are so goofy and fun, yet really damn hard and complex. I'd love to see Hannah react to the cooking cutscenes in those games too.
@@HannaHsOverInvested i recommend checking them out in chronological order if ya decide to watch em :)
Love Christopher Judge's voice.
Indeed
Watching your reaction videos always puts me in a better mood 😄 great video I really love the God of War game series
That is such a nice thing to say! I am so happy to hear that!
I'll always love the way the axe comes back to his hand and in b/w fights it always feels awesome
God of War is one of those games that's fit to be a film series.
There's so much great writing in the 2 games that it's such a shame for them to be locked away in a game that not everyone can experience
Hey HananH, just stumbled on your videos but cool seeing them (like them a lot). If i can offer a suggestion and it can be that your already doing this so not sure if this is relevant in any way. You should do these reaction videos on Twitch, you will have an audience there and the the chat (from looking at your comments) will have lots of fun giving your a lot of the backstory on these videos. just my suggestion anyways, if you are already doing so please attach a link to your channel but if not its super easy to setup and i think you will also have lots of fun doing it.
great job :)
As Kratos would say,
"Do not be sorry, be better."
Hmmm, maybe that quote should apply to all Canadians, eh?
Hi Hannah love your channel! Discovered it from the Fallout video and has since seen atleast a couple dozen videos of yours. Keep being honest keep being you, it's okay not to like something. Your reactions are genuine which I don't feel I get from most other react channels. Keep up the good work!! :)
Tyr is a Norse god of war, justice, and order. We don't know much about him, except he lost his hand to the wolf Fenris. In the trailer he still has his hand which makes sense, since Fenris is the child of Loki (the surely teenage son in the trailer) and Angrboda, the mother of monsters (the black woman in the end.)
What doesn't make much sense is that in the myths Jörmungand, the world serpent, the giant one in the sea, is also one of the sons of Loki and Angrboda, so who knows.
The guy who stood up at end was Tyr, the Norse God of war that they refer to throughout the trailer
The girl you said you wanted to know more about in the end is Angrboda, one of Loki's 3 wives! Together, they create (birth?) Fenrir the wolf, and the wolf later bites of Tyr's hand during the time of Ragnarok. It's a wild mythos, to be sure. I'm not sure how much inspiration/liberty the game's story will take from the old Edda, but it clearly already stands quite far apart from the original stories for the sake of an engaging story for modern audiences with their favorite fantasy character, Kratos.
So, I just found your channel 2 days ago and I'm in love. The video-game industry is so male centric that even women who talk about it from the inside have to abandon their feminine eye altogether. You must be the only person I know who expresses their liking of eye candies, for example, and that's something even the most brave video game journalist wouldn't admit - but you do, along with 100 other things which make watching your channel so refreshing.
Anyway, I would love to see how you would reach to the This Is EVE Online trailer of EVE Online. It's a trailer made of the recordings of players as they were playing the game.
Thank you so much! And thanks for the recommendation!!
The reason why those two meeting is cool: Not really a game knowledge thing, more a Mythology knowledge thing. Kratos the new god of war... Who killed the entire Greek Panteon meets Tyr the Norse god of war... Basically it's a ""ermergerd, one god of war meets another..."
Tyr is another Norse god. He is important in the mythology. The son is named Atreus, but his mother named him Loki to her people who are frost Giants. The story goes along the lines of the Norse tale Ragnarok aka the end of days
Hello Hannah,
Jut wanted to say, I have been watching this channel for quite a while and just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your realness and how unfiltered you are with your opinions and thoughts. It really is refreshing to see someone not overacting or exaggerating themselves but just being honest with themselves and their audience. Like or hate, it is authentic and much appreciated.
The teenage girl is Angrboda, the incarnation of misery and demise. She's associated with the dark and with black, which is most probably why she's literally black too. Missing the bright red hair though but she's a shapeshifter, so her shape is irrelevant.
one of my favorite facts is that Kratos isn't actually white, in the very first game, before he has the ashes of his first family bound to his skin, he is much darker skinned, like a man from Niger in those times, and his daughter clearly has black hair and a darker skin tone than her mother, but lighter than kratos.
I thought he had more of the olive Mediterranean complexion before the ashes bound to his skin
I mean he is Greek so of course his complexion would be in correlation to their environment, Greece is a sunny place and in ancient times they wear little to no clothing depending on social Status.
@@dantefromdevilmaycry9857 also when I say black hair I mean the kind not the color
@@davoid1792 I went back to look, and i think you're mistaking an ancient greek style hair bun for afro textured hair. As the owner of a formidable afro myself... i dont reallty see it
I'm pretty sure he just has olive skin, and if I remember correctly his daughter had straight brown hair that was braided on the ends (Chains of Olympus and Ascension). Also Kratos always had light skin even before the ashes (as seen when he was a kid), it's just the darker scenery that made his skin look darker. Ultimately it changes nothing about his character anyway.
God of War is literally one of the best game franchises to ever be created. Kratos forever!!!
The giant guy was Tyr, Atreus is really Loki, the woman that jumps on the sleigh is Freya she's pissed because we killed her son in the first game.
The guy who stood up is Tyr a Norse god of war and justice. In the game was presumed dead, since Odin claimed that.
So the guy is Tyr Norse god of war, law and justice. Officially he is 8’5” so maybe half giant in this lore. Norse mythology has a few gods of war including Odin. Edit: I just thought of this but what if it’s not actually Odin that is the main villain of the Norse Saga but Ullr who rules while he’s gone
I just discovered this channel and I have to say seeing your delight at the things that have brought me joy is genuinely heartwarming
The girl at the end is Angrboda. It’s a personal in mythology that is considered evil. And a person not to be trusted
I usually "Like" your videos after watching them, but this time after hearing your "rant" I chose to pause the video and "Like" it then and there, then continue watching the rest.
Atreus: TYR
Hannah a second later: Who's that?
...
This guy standing up was Tyr the God of War in the Nordic Mytholigy. Apperantly he's the son of Odin, Hymir(The Giant) and Frigg(The Gods Mother). Whats so interesting here are both gods of war (of the greek and nordic mythology) facing eachother.
That will be interesting
Tall guy is Týr @15:00.
He is the Norse God of War, Law, and Honor. Thor is his half brother.
People have uploaded playthroughs that basically turn God of War into the longest movie ever, someone made an 11+ hours of all four games but for God of War 4 specifically its like 5 and a half hours. I actually do recommend watching them honestly. A Full Gameplay playthrough video would be about 12-13 hours
I didn't know you numbering your videos was the quality of life improvement i needed. thank you hannah! love your channel
always great to watch. question, open really, with you not muting anything and even though being copy right claimed, does this happen with all the other channels/react ppl on youtube?
I actually have no idea. I know that people with bigger channels make their real money off sponsorships, not ad revenue. Unfortunately I don't have any sponsorships, so its just ad revenue for me right now. And book sales, but that isn't super high. I hope it will be one say tho!
@@HannaHsOverInvested i have 0 idea either, but that makes sense regarding sponsors. i enjoy your channel and have been making my way thru all the game react vids, only found your channel not that long ago
I know this is an old video, but the tall man is Tyr, the Norse God of War. This game and the previous game are rooted in Norse mythology which was a departure for the series.
Watching her reacting to Jormungandr( The World Serpent) wanting to help them versus someone versed in Norse mythology would react to such an offer( hint very very very warily). Havent played the game but Ive heard enough good things that Im going to as soon as I get a new console.
Have you ever seen the ending of Star Wars Jedi fallen order? I would love to see how you would react to it. It’s amazing like you 😊
I think so, but I don't know... ill have to check.
im with a few of the people in the comments here hoping you can find like a comfortable way to watch like the entirety of a game. full story videos or like "cutscene movies" of games are pretty easy to find but id recommend maybe trying to watch the ones where gameplay isnt cut out because some games especially ones like god of war 2018 might be hard to follow if you arent watching the characters like traversing through the game world.
That father son trailer really is something else. Shit is epic as hell.
All I’m saying is…If I see a giant snake, rise up, and someone says it’s the world serpent…I’m trying to get off the planet, IMMEDIATELY. I didn’t sign up for Ragnarok lol
I like your reaction, you should try to watch the hole god of war history in order to understand the trailers
Thanks!
The guy that stood up is Tyr, the god of war in the Norse pantheon. He is supposed to be dead, according to the story of the last game.
I've said it before, I'll say it again. The story of the God of War Norse Saga is the story of a man with exactly ONE problem solving strategy (brutal overwhelming violence) being forced to contend with problems that strategy is utterly USELESS against.
Like, the brutal overwhelming violence is the gameplay, but the stuff that's useless against is the biggest emotional thread of the storyline.
The new god of war games is so great because it shows a character who was blood thirsty to kill all of the Greek pantheon to becoming a father again and becoming human again and being very wise overtime
Tall man is Tyr, Nordic God of War. If you studied any Norse mythology you’ll know him. Yes that was Thor. The girl at the end is Angrboda, Loki’s spouse and mother of monsters. Mike Judge aka Teal'c from Stargate SG-1 is the voice of Kratos in this part of the series. In the original series he was voiced by TC Carson aka Kyle Barker from Living Single. You gotta put some Norse characters in your story!
Tyr's story is relayed to you via in-game text and dialogue during the 2018 game. So I don't expect you to know who he is at the end XD A lot of people who have played the first installment didn't even know surprisingly.
The girl at the end is Angrboda, future wife of Loki, and mother of Jormungandr Hella and Fenrir
Glad to see you’re back in my timeline because algorithms
Hey Hannah, still here still one of your oldest fans XD I was wondering, I know the videos themselves are really old but do you think you'd ever go back and watch the original God of war gameplay trailers?
like the one I already watched and didn't understand? like a rewatch?
@@HannaHsOverInvested no he means the games that came out before these 2 games these games take place in norse mythology and the old god of war games take place in greek mythology what you just watched is the sequel reboot of the games which makes sense that you think the game called "god of war" is the first game but it is in fact the 8th game in the series
Razbuten is a channel that has a video series called, "gaming for a non gamer". He goes into different types of video games analyzes the experience of a non gamer. I think you'll like his reactions and the non gamers' reaction to different games.
I don't know if you're "Expected" to know any of this going into the game but for those who are familiar with Old Norse mythology the tall man that stands up named Týr is an old norse god who has played many roles in the sagas. Importantly this reveal though is that Týr is thought to been associated with Warfare which would make him the "Norse God of War'"*1. Which would make him semi analogous to the Greek God of War Ares which was the principle antagonist and starting point of the first God of War game back in the 2000's. So to me hearing that and seeing Týr makes it feel like they're going full circle with the games themes.
*1 (in as much as any of the Norse gods can be said to be "a god of X"... The Norse deities were less personifications of aspects like the Greek or Roman gods and more gods with human personalities and hobbies. For example Óðinn is commonly today referred to as a god of wisdom, war, death, and trickery. However, unlike the Greek gods this is a misnomer as those are more themes that appear in the poems and sagas. He's a god that hung himself in order to gain knowledge of writing and magic, he tricked various entities in order to gain power and wisdom and foresight, visited dead people in order to populate an army to avoid his coming death. All of these are more fascinations rather than having power over wisdom, death, and the like. Compare that with Zeus who's the god of the sky and storms whose principle powers are related to skies and storms. Or Aphrodite the goddess of love whose principle powers included love and attraction. The Norse gods tend to be a lot more human than their counterparts in Greek, Rome, and Egypt.)
Santa Monica has good way of making the story really good and enjoyable Hannah. It's like step by step process for the story to progress
I think you'll really enjoy watching this game unfold, they did a whole Birdmanesque one-shot, which really gave the game a strong cinematic look and feel. I remember a short synopsis about the game going "it's about Kratos teaching his son Atreus how to be a god, and Atreus teaching his father how to be human". The element of "family" is so strong in all the key characters, like the dwarves, 2 brothers bickering and quarreling when all they needed was to "be friends instead". Not plunging into spoiler territory, i really feel like this whole story is worth your watch, just so you have a better grasp of what they were hinting to in the Ragnarok trailer 😁
I would love it if you could do a reaction to the full story of this God of War game. Maybe do it in parts though, because it is quite a long story lol. It's one of the most beautiful stories I've ever seen on any media and I think you'd like it if you take it slow and take the time to enjoy it before the next game comes out with more story! :D
I think you would absolutely love "Raising Kratos". It's a documentary on the making of the 2018 game (the one from the first three trailers) and it goes in depth into many aspects of game developing. It follows the game director and the many struggles that came along during development. It's interesting and heartwarming to be sincere. I think yow would love it.
The tall giant man at the end was the God of War of Norse legend and the Keatos was the God of War from Greek . That scene 2 God of War where meeting
Ragnarok is the Norse Apocalypse, the End of times and all things.
Where All the Gods fight it out in an Epic Last Stand that ends the universe, before the shattered and broken realms coalsce back togheter to reform Creation and start anew, a never ending cycle of death, live, destruction and creation.
Lol! Who was that tall guy? Literally shouted his name as he was revealed.😂😂
Remember the old days when the first trailer was dropped everybody thought the villain would be Loki?!!
And the World Serpent is the first giant monster that Kratos doesn't kill immediately!
the hand print was a game mechanic but lore wise they are a marker left by Kratos' wife/atreus' mother to guide them. their journey was started by her death and final wish for her ashes to be spread in her homeland
you should make a discord server so I can rant at you about video game lore lol, cause this is dope and its awesome to see your reactions to these trailers.
Hold up... Is game trailer watching a career.... Damn, what have i been doing my whole life 😂 😂 😂
Tall guy at the end was Tyr, they said his name to him. He's the Norse God of war.
You thought about doing a reaction to the game's cutscenes, that way you get more of the lore?.. um, please lol
It's been such a fun time watching your channel grow over these months.
the first game trailer only gives you the story of kartos and atreus relationship, in order to understand so many things in the ragnarok trailer you must have played all the past games, the big man at the end is tyr, one of the aesir on the good side who seems like he will help make with making peace instead od war
It doesn't bother me that Angrboda will be a POC because we already have a wildly displaced POC in the setting. Kratos is a foreigner in a strange land, possibly even a totally different universe from the one he destroyed.
Midgard isn't Norway. Midgard is Earth and it's accompanying cosmos
Been enjoying your videos so far! Figured I should let you know about a little controversy going on in some places - due to the fact that the girl at the end is black. Some people are pretty upset about a black person being in a norse mythology game. I can understand them being fatigued with "blackwashing" but I think it'd be an excellent opportunity to seguey into the Egyptian pantheon, having that girl be half-egyptian god.
Hell, it's somewhat unusual that Atreus isn't a little darker himself given Kratos's mediterranian heritage. The reason Kratos himself is so pale is because he's been cursed.
But yeah, I'd really love for them to set up the Egyptian stuff and have that be a payoff instead of just having a token character - what do you think?
At the risk of sounding annoying, I highly recommend you check out Horizon Forbidden West. Both the reveal trailer and the State of Play. I’m so in love with Aloy as a character and the world Guerilla has made
why would that sound annoying?
@@HannaHsOverInvested I don’t really know lmao, I guess I just second guess myself a lot!
The game near the end has a mission where you paddle your canoe into his stomach to get a certain artifact
If you want to watch something less lore heavy, there are a bunch of character driven animated shorts for a game called "Don't Starve." They're pretty short and most are about who a character is and/or how they ended up in the strange place that the game takes place in. There's a playlist made by Klei Entertainment that has all of them, just know that the playlist also has gameplay trailers in it that you can probably ignore. If the title of the video ends with [character name animated short], that's the one you should watch. There's also a cinematic trailer called "forbidden knowledge that you could watch as well.
Is there a better “remake” of a series, game/tv/movie/etc.? To take the history of a story, the character and everything they did, and do such a complete 180 BUT still make it fit so fucking well in the narrative. This story is so natural and good.
The woman you saw at 13:00 is the same you saw at 11:43 she is Freya mother of Baldur the guy we meet in the God Of War 2018 Freya made her son unkillable and made every object in the world swear an oath not to harm her son, so her son grew bored of centuries of immortality and not expecting to get hurt from anything so now he does not feel anything too.
Kratos who are and outsider did not swear to Freya, so she helps him in exchange of not hurting her son, but Baldur are out to kill Atreus to force Kratos in a fight expecting to feel something in his fight against a god, and in the end of God of War 2018 somthing happens that made Freya angry... That's why she is attacking him in Ragnarok in 13:00
Sorry if my english is rusty but you should check his encounters with Baldur so you can learn more about the story.
If you never plan to play these games, I think you should try watching cutscene edits. Depending on the game, the cutscenes can have nearly the complete story.
Nice led.strip around the bookcase now oh and nose piercing? :)
That Ferngully poster though....I feel like we need to send you a frame haha . Yes yes it bothers me clearly haah :) keep up the great work miss !
Ps there are talks of a god of war movie...who would you want to play the roles of the main cast ? :)
So I just found this channel, you got a great vibe:)
I have already cast my vote, and unlike a friend who thinks it is stupid to vote as it means not a thing. But I keep tell him that if anyone thinks like it is a wasted to vote because you can not effect change in our society. Ok sorry had a fight and now I'm pick on everyone. Sorry, so I will start this as should have loved the review and have a good night and a great Monday.
The real deal with assassin'c creed, is watching the story of Edzio Auditore, the progression of his life in the 3 games is remarcable
The tall guy at the end is Tyr the God of War. The Last trailer you watched is 2nd game's trailer, they talked about Tyr in the first game so we know who he is and what he did. This game is SOOOO GOOD. I recommend you give it a try or watch some gameplay of it. :D Loved the reaction.
I like how in the trailer Kratos teaches the kid that in order to be effective in combat you must close your heart. Which is absolute truth..in a war scenario…and the first thing a female says is - “dont do that” which is so bad in war terms. In war feeling for the enemy will get you, your team ans your loved ones killed.
The tall guy was Tyr, the Norse god of battle/war
Great video and love the title of the rant part. Damn it was a good game. Beautiful and stunning. Keep up the good vibes❤️
🙏🏼🙏🏼 thank you!

"Men? We're more than that." Is not philosophical. Kratos literally is a god of war. And he is an outsider as was said - because he is from Greece.
And when he told his child that he was cursed it is because the child has his blood - he is a god too and possess the same spartan rage as his father.
Kratos was tricked and used by the gods of Greece which ultimately ended in him murdering his own family succumbing to madness and wiping out literally all gods of Greece. The story of the first games was about the self-destructive nature of revenge. Our "hero" literally kills himself at the end of it. But he is not allowed to die. A lot of things happen and he, standing on the ashes of the pantheon, having killed his own father... leaves. And carries that burden (of all the atrocities he had commited) with him.
And in the newer games, he arrived in the north and found a new wife and a new life. He is trying to raise his son Atreus when everything goes to hell as... that is the curse of the gods. They always find each other and they always end up clashing. He is trying to raise his son to escape that vicious cycle (Remember, Zeus - Kratos' father killed his own father before that) - the clash and arrogance of power. And little Atreus has trouble handling it (as expected) - and it is a big moment for him to succumb to the power and become drunk on it... only to suffer the consequences. With the help of Kratos he learns and grows out of that. That is the thing so intense about the new games - Kratos doesn't go through a journey and change - he IS a complete character now. He went through that already. But now he has a son - and he tries to pass on the lessons he has learned. And the child makes his own mistakes - and grows as a person.
Also, Atreus is a name that Kratos gave him. Loki is the name his mother gave the child - and she was one of the frost giants.
What the newest (Ragnarok) will be about? I guess Atreus teenage years and coming of age. Oh and I'm kinda sure the trailer already showed us the real trouble - the girl.
