In this video we continue our journey into the lore of the God of war series. This was a non stop thrill ride as we discover an older yet wiser Kratos. Aside from the visuals my wife and I were completely blown away story telling and voice acting of each character. Santa monica studios truly created a masterpiece with this game. Leave your thoughts in the comment section and let us know what you think about the God of War franchise. - Hry

40:10 notice how kratos' mannerisms completely change when he goes to the door. He goes from visibly hurt and exhausted to immediately walking strong and upright like nothing happened. He is just a broken widowed man who is just putting on a strong face for his son
The only thing that was hurt was his heart 💔
No. As a demi, he learned to heal himself
@@unlimited971 I believe he's talking about the psychological effects Kratos is going through. Which he is mentally worn out
@@kimanir1802 He always had been with more death and blood he had to bare.
masterpiece of a game
They enter Norse mythology now. This is a great story
I hope they enjoy it💯💪🏿
Amazing
I want to mention somethings specially who he's fighting but I don't want to spoil it! but its interesting to see he still has the power of an Olympian!
@@hihuhaeikf6546SHUT.
It's not good
This opponent was always the perfect answer to Kratos's strength. Quite literally a god that can feel no pain nor can he be killed! I loved his bombastic attotude
@Rab'Anderson2013 I played it and yes, I'm saying the concept of the character is perfect for Kratos. I know Baldur kept getting killed, but the magic just revives him anyways. Had it not been for mistletoe, Kratos would have fought Baldur forever.
@@rabertoification so? He was still able to match Kratos
@@cookiesnugglez7318 nah he wasn't, got bodied in the first fight, only his blessing saved him, he went out easy, it seems Kratos struggles because it's been a 1000 years since he had a real challenge.
@@rafaelabresillard454 ofc he struggled.. the man became a farmer for ages
@@rabertoification what did he? noo..... Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats, physical or magical.
33:15 "Remember, control your anger" that was controlled anger, the skill is spartan rage but Kratos does not lose control. He focuses it to enhance his strength, as you mentioned when he took out the tree, and started throwing haymakers dealing massive damage. "Anger can be a weapon if you harness it" and anger is his 2nd oldest weapon
And in ragnarok, it varies and can be used as a literal weapon.
@@bizzaroblake2519aged too well 😂 “used as a literal weapon”
@@thedstroyer0075 kratos was always the weapon.
The fact that the entire game is one continuous camera shot is really impressive.
What is great about this whole franchise is how they continue adding new perspectives on "classic" interpretations of the stories and characters of the various mythologies.
I'm not really a major gamer- but I've been an absolute mythology GEEK since I was 6 or 7; so when the first of these games appeared in my 30s, I needed to explore it- and I'm glad I did.
Just as an example (without giving away any spoilers (for the game OR for the mythology buffs)- the stranger, once you know who he is? Could not be a further polar opposite of this character in the "traditional" Norse pantheon.
I love how Atreus lived with it so long that he though people were just that strong!
As someone who has dealt with anger issues in the past, seeing Kratos' transformation from raging brute to mild-mannered and in control spoke volumes to me. Especially, someone who has been playing God of War since the beginning in 2005
You guys are about to feel a range of emotions you didn't think was possible watching a God of War game.
wait until ragnarok arrives at last. It will get more intense then
All the emotions you can feel from this game you could feel from any other GOW game already. Don't act like this is the first game where Kratos shows emotion.
@bruh5073 yes but most of the emotions aren't drawn out but only see the tragedy and mostly anger. Here he has self awareness, love shown more, patience, trying to question his sons thinking instead of calling it wrong. Those aspects aren't either done or fleshed out enough to see.
@@bizzaroblake2519 Thanks. It has been made apparent that you haven't touched any of the older games.
@bruh5073 I've seen playthroughs of all of the games. Alot of those emotions I have mentioned have been sidelined by his rage and not realizing the damage he's really doing at at at times how he caused the problem.
Just love the tone of the Norse games. Kratos has lost too much, and has done even more. He just wants to protect what little he has left and to make sure his son can take care of himself. He's harsh as hell, but only because that's all he's known all his life. Probably the most realistic character development in any media.
3:30 About the chains not there anymore - in the end of GOW3 when you finish beating up Zeus, look closely at Kratos, he was looking at his hands with the glowing power of hope, aswell as the chains falling off his arms...
Take notice of when Kratos lets his rage take hold. In the game it only happens when his son is in danger or being threatened
Exactly. Which goes to show he only goes nuclear when he needs to be. People thinks he's weaker because of what happens here in GOW. 2018 when in reality the dudes just rusty +mentally burdened..the dudes wife just died. Heck I'd crappy too if I had to fight someone the same day my wife dies😥
@@kimanir1802 And his knees are destroyed. That makes a big difference.
@@kimanir1802 he is actually stronger than he was before. But he only uses as much as he needs. Because he is afraid that he would lose control. He is not rusty, he is better than he was in the old games.
It is not hyperbole to say Kratos destroyed the world when he wasn't using his rage responsibly.
If I'm going to be honest, Kratos is a teacher for myself since I actually have anger problems. About to be 30 years old.... I found playing the latest 2 games very much well-earned as far as how to discipline and conditioning myself on how to utilize it as well.
you have a little dick!
(but if you read this part your dick's big)
Good 👍
I don't believe it was really revealed why Kratos wasn't around but I believe he was out often training himself to overcome his rage hence why he seems more calm. Welcome to the new Adventures of DAD OF BOI!!!!
I don't know anything about what Kratos was doing as Atreus was growing up but Faye taught Atreus everything, and she helped Kratos control his rage it seems.
There is a comic that showcases it and yeah, he was usually getting into fights and attempting to use them as a way to train never raging again
Correct. Kratos knew the reason his family died was his own anger and blood lust. So he'd hunt alone letting Animals attack him and try to control his anger for days on end. Atreus thought it was because kratos didn't want him but it's the opposite reason. One thing that always was true with kratos besides his strength, is his love for his family. He lost one family before and he can't fix it. So he's making sure they stay alive with the cost being his son feels he's hated or unwanted. Faye knew his nature and his past and tried to give him wisdom to him. Though it would soon be apparent he forgot her wisdom.
When I saw you 2 were going through the gow history, I was so hoping you'd be getting into the recent 2 games, Then I saw today's video I was super hyped. I think they did an amazing job showing the wear and tear on his body from all those years of fighting. So excited to see you 2 react further into the game.
Really appreciate you guys changing the video at this point! It wasn't that detrimental back then during the Greek saga although it had already its drawbacks, but in this one, you may already miss a ton of experience just from not seeing a single cutscene because of the emotional impact the new God of War games had.
To explain his arms at the beginning, when Kratos killed Zeus at the end of GOW3, the chains fell off if you watched
I was under the assumption that any blades after gow1 could be removed since Ares tore the original ones off kratos at the end
To everyone who doesn't know. There is a shirt comic series that explains how Kratos ends up in the northern lands. There's also an audible book that goes in a but more detail on who and what brought him to the Northern lands
I love how Kratos only uses the strength he needs at the time. You can tell its kinda like the superman problem where you can tell he has broken things just by picking it up.
Yeah if you notice he uses more strength whenever his son Atreus is mentioned, which I think I cool and interesting
Maaann the ICONIC Eye Rolls of this man in this series is really something, especially the part when she says of being a Vegan after this is like... 😭
Y'all get ready cause this is an epic 15 hour movie! It's so many in game important scenes you can't do just the cut scenes you will miss so much. Great reaction!❤❤
My favorite one out the series and my favorite couple to watch experience it with. Played it so many times i know you guys will love it.
This game is so good that it was the game of the year. The narrative is so good and interesting. To learn and see how much kratos changed was just mind blowing.
Hit the bell icon to be notified when we go live to play God of War.
OK, for your own good don't read the comments, some people can't help but the leave spoilers.
When the two of you are done with the God of War 2018 story, watch the 'Stranger' introduction again. No need to react to it, just watch the introduction again.
Theres actually a comic that explains how Kratos got to midguard and met his wife Faye and how Atreaus came about its pretty good read
Since it had been so long since kratos even used his power it’s probably just fatigue more than anything so his body just needs to get used to it
2:21 reason why Kratos looks like a different person is because he is playing and voiced by Christopher Judge a.k.a. Teal’c from Stargate SG-1.
He looks different because he grew older, not because the voice actor changed. That makes no sense.
@@chefboiardeeznutz9881it does make sense actually. When making the game, they used motion capture and kratos was played by Christopher Judge
@@InnocentDJ I get that, I'm just saying when I see his face, it doesnt immediately look like the voice actor. But when you lool at the other characters, they're quicker to recognize.
This game is so great I had my first son when this game came out and the emotions in this game are so strong. Also this is a great format so far.
Kratos is doing what Zues should’ve done with all his children, actually care and teach them how to better themselves and use whatever powers they have
Well its a comic series that shows what he does after the battle with the Greek gods and before him entering Norse mythology that will also give you more insight on what he was doing before he got there
Pretty sure an explanation as to why he looks weak is bc he's using his mental strength too much to keep his anger under control, which would weaken his physical strength. Greek gods actually grow stronger as they age, and he too is stronger, just not giving it his 100% anymore (not even in this fight you watched), he's always nerfing himself by not allowing his rage take over.
He did almost slip up in this video when he screamed at his son. In the first showcase of the game, he actually had his rage meter fill up super quick when he screamed at Atreus, but slooowly started to go down when he took a deep breath as he said "Only fire when I tell you to fire".
Lol stop saying he is stronger. It's literally stated several times in ragnarok that he is weaker and kratos himself tells Freya in the boat ride that he is weaker. Even Eric Williams says old kratos is weaker and had to train for years to get some of his skill back in between the years of this game and Ragnarok. All this crap about Greek gods getting stronger with age is all headcanon. It's never once stated that Greek gods get stronger with age in the god of war universe. Stop spreading false information. Yes Cory did say that kratos was stronger a couple years ago but that crap is obviously debunked heavily in the new game with the new director and kratos himself stating in the actual game that he is weaker.
@@calebstephan2083 yea ok dude no need for the hostility, but if what you're saying about what the devs confirmed is true then thanks for the correction.
@@calebstephan2083 He’s not weaker in the new games tho. He’s just, like Eric Williams said, rusty. He held back the entirety of both games so it’s hard to say if he is actually stronger now because he never let his rage take control. Most people say he’s stronger now because Cory Barlog said he’s stronger.
I just noticed but at 6:14 atreus felt his mother’s barrier come down after kratos cut the tree down
The blades were unbound when he killed his father.. Man this takes me back.. It never gets old this game is a master piece all the way
love it keep doing it like this, I love seeing how different both of your facial expressions are on certain scenes lol
Their eyes when kratos drops the bolder on top of "the stranger" lmao
Regarding on why Kratos was unsure what he learned from Faye (The mother that died) Kratos realized that his anger abd bloodlust caused his family to die by his hands. So he would go off on trips into the wild for days at a time alone harnessing his anger better to protect his famiky from that anger. Faye would teach autreus in the meantime but didn't understand why. One thing that always stuck with kratos was: He loved both of his families and their loss or them being in danger make him more dangerous. He loves his son but staying away to protect him left them seperated with atreus thinking he wasnt wanted. Thats far from the truth. And with his son being his last bit of family, he would tear the eorld apart to keep him safe.
We know what hell he's been through and his growth between the Greek pantheon until the end of ragnarok will have you in tears I promise.
Goodbye god of war, hello dad of boy! Also the fact this entire game is all one camera shot still amazes me
I like this format better than the format with all of the cuts. Great job and analysis!
I've have been looking forward to this. It hits so much better when you know his history
In God Of War 3 Kratos was 8ft tall
In 2018 they made him shorter at 6'8 so if you ever wonder... "wasnt he taller?" Yes he was
Why is he shorter
@@christopherking4932 to make him fit in better with the rest of the cast
Its puts the whole "I thought you'll be bigger" into prospective lol
Man, I love y'all's genuine reactions and commentary on this stuff.
I appreciate the change in what how you're reacting to this content. It's so much to cover between not just the cut scenes, but gameplay as well. This is needed for the newer series of GoW. They did a great job in incorporating the story into the gameplay. Great job guys. Looking forward to the rest of your GoW Chapter.
This is a nice format and especially for this game. It has a lot of dialogue and story thats not in cutscenes so at least this time you get to see some of that. 3:35 If you go back to the end of the zeus fight it shows the chains falling off his forearms. They are still bound to him tho as a prequel comic showed. I would also definitely say that Kratos controls his rage in this one, or at least a lot more than in the previous games. His spartan rage in this game is used more like a tool to help in battle rather than just blindly going into a rage when he gets mad. But anyways, cant wait for you to continue the story! The journey has only just begun!
*Sidenote: Be careful of spoilers in the comment section. I'm seeing some who are kinda giving away information thats not revealed in the game's story yet.
I'll definition definitely give a thumbs up and a like for these, I'm loving your reactions.
This is a great series and I am happy that the both of you are enjoying it. I love to see your reactions. And trust the story gets even better! Can’t wait to see your reactions in Ragnarok.
So glad you guys switched up the videos you were watching, the previous ones were pretty terrible when it came to leaving things out. Right before you cut to the explanation I saw it cut to another scene and I was like "THEY SKIPPED THE HUNTING SCENE!?" Only for you to explain the video change and start back at the hunting scene haha. The deer hunt was pretty important in establishing what kind of relationship Kratos and Atreus had at the time. Looking forward to seeing your reactions to the rest of it!
LOVE the New format keep that going
Yes! Yall gone love this one.
Love to see it, need more God Of War video from your
Dad of War quickly became one of my favorite games. I've played the first one just as the second God of War was coming out on PS2 and have played all of them as they came out over the years. It has been great to see Kratos evolve over the years, and you'll no doubt appreciate how the story keeps growing.
This looks like a great video to react to. With as seamlessly as GoW transitions from gameplay to cinematics, seeing more gameplay will help the cut scenes make more sense.
It’s such a great story, you don’t want to miss any.
I’ve played every god of war game that came out, and I still have the entire collection. So I’m really enjoying this with you guys✌️✌️
Kratos is a perfect example of a person suffering even after successfully obtaining revenge and how there's always a price to be paid, without forgiveness!
Listening to baldur's opening monologue after beating the game, you realize he's speaking with the assumption that Kratos is the Giant that lived in Midgard. He didn't know who Faye was, and who Kratos was either. It's interesting
He was looking for Faye. They said it at the end. Kratos said it.
Love the new video format
To give you guys some background so you aren't confused. In the God Of War Verse. Each Pantheon of God is it'd own Multiverse. The Greek Pantheon is its own Multiverse. When Kratos left Greece he didn't leave the country Greece he left the Greek Multiverse. And is now in the Norse Multiverse.
Each Pantheon is it's own universe, creating a GoW multiverse.
@@k9commander it's a multiverse because Hades, Domain of Death, Tartarus, Earth, Olympus, and Elysium are all separate dimensions are are infinite in size, same with wall the realms in the Norse Multiverse.
@@Anukinihun I don't think there is any indication that the different worlds are of infinite size. that's actually often the problem in this game. Helheim is overflowing with the dead. literally overflowing so Helwalkers show up.
@@TGPDrunknHick they explained why that is happening is because the Valkyrie weren't doing their duties to usher to dead to the Hel, because Odin sealed them away. Got to pay attention.
Yaaaaaaaasssssssssss this where the story starts getting nuts
There are 2 comic books in between god of war 3 & god of war 2018, that explains how he gets to norse mythology
Everything about this game and its follow up... is just beyond words.
Its as good as it gets, in every possible way.
been waiting for y'all to upload this
Love the reaction. This new kratos looks amazing. The story is going to be good, and I can't wait for the next reaction. Keep it up guys 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nice to see longer videos I know your guys are going to enjoy this you should play it aswell
Appreciate the longer episodes. I think with these new games around an hour long videos are best!
ah i love this series excellent journey its been already
Plz keep these god of war vids coming🔥🔥
this is good its good to see the game play and cutscene becasue the way this game was made ts one whole cutscene the camera doesnt cut away
Hello, you two. Just subscribed, even though I've been watching some of your late videos, and I'm liking your content and reactions so far. Looking forward to see more videos😎👌 even from other franchises if possible. Take care now👍
Love the new format
Finally we are here you are in for a great story
Fun fact: the lyrics of the song in this moment: 8:15 are saying "outlawed god" as we see Kratos in the hallway in a new place far from his home, looking at his son who he knows is a god. All the songs with lyrics the game are in old norse, which was spoken by the vikings and is basically Icelandic as its spoken identically and is the closest to the old norse of all the scandinavian languages (not saying that the others arent close in any way, just saying that Icelandic has the most resemblance to the old norse).
The look on my boy face when Kratos punched the boulder 😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Only channel I stay for the video introduction😂
funny that they touched on when it comes to having to kill your food. I lived in a place outside of any easy-to-reach supermarkets. where we had to catch and skin our own food and everyone was encouraged to do the same because of the overpopulation issue. when you have an excess of deer, hogs, and rabbits. you see the horror they can reek out on the land and that leads to landslides. you have to have respect for what you hunt and to kill it quickly so it doesn't suffer. sure everyone could go vegan but unless you're growing your own food then you're basically eating food grown after being sprayed with poison. and most people don't realize just how much you have to grow to feed just two people especially if you're growing what's in season. and you have to get vitamin supplements for what you're not getting from meat.
"YOU are hunting deer." 'okay which way?' "in the direction of deer" Lmao
Lol🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice , finally u both started the GOW 2018 series , can’t wait to see your reaction to this and Ragnarok
You can’t really do only cutscenes in this game because so much story and character development happens during traversal.
It's true. The game's story is fully integrated into the gameplay itself.
lol the funny thing about this game is that there are no cutscenes as its a one take from start to finish of the game so you could say the whole game is a cutscene
A man who defeated Zeus, needs like 4 swings with an axe to chop a tree. Really now.
....really?
Both of the new games had Kratos not use his full power, he doesn't want to be how he used to be.
Kratos wasnt hurt he was just mentaly tired and also wasnt ready for fighting a god after all this time
He is actually way stronger than his younger self
Oooooh y’all are in for a ride!!!
Thanks to everyone that does not wanna give away spoilers to these 2. Respect!💙 Þú ek þakka👊🏻
Awesome video.
It is interesting to think that Kratos traveled the world for 1000 years before going to the lands of Norse gods. I wonder where else he went before this.
Btw he was hurt so badly because hes holding back, he doesnt want to be like his old self.
No way an ordinary man throws a tree that big on his shoulders and, and that's it...!
Kratos is not injured it plays a part in it but it's because he is holding back his true power so he doesn't go back to who he was at the end of the 3rd game
Hi Guys, in God of war 1 if you noticed at end fight with Ares, he rips of the Chains from Kratos's hands
Just finished Ragnarok. Been playing GOW since the first one on PlayStation 2 when I was 4
19:17 its winter fam lol i feel u tho
With Kratos its more Rage than Anger. Good Vid 🎯👍💯
Kratos isn’t a hypocrite because now clearly he can control his anger and rage. He’s trying to teach his son how to control himself too.
6:00 because when the tree was cut the formation that hid them from oden's eye was destroyed...
Arteus felt that so...
The "your kind" was reference to Kratos being Greek, and the Greeks being know for Philosophy their famous philosophers
No, it wasn't. Baldur thought he was a giant. That was the purpose of his appearance, he was looking for Faye, one of the last giants.
Ima need u to post a new vid, this was too good, love the uncut raw gameplay reaction
"In the direction of Deer" LMAO
One thing i always wondered and don't actually know if it's been confirmed in any way in the prequels or sequels, comics etc. But Kratos being a greek god of war, is the reason he seems exhausted, struggling to a degree in this not because of his age, but because he is a god who isn't worshipped and no longer in the domain of his own pantheon? So nothing to sustain him so to speak. Or is it something as simple as him having relied on his rage for so long to sustain him but at the beginning of this game at least, he didn't have that and nothing to take said rages place until Atreus became that source as cheesy as that sounds.
21:20 thats that SPARTAN RAGE
19:45 people will say they can eat salad as an option to avoid taking life but people fail to realize that plants are alive as well. Its called the circle of life for a reason all living thats take live in order to live one way or another.
For me, this is the first game where the camera continuously follows the characters, in short, there are no cut scenes. I don't remember this anywhere in other games. If there are videos for the entire game, then I will watch them with great pleasure.
The opening fight is the best in gaming history for me
The end of the world begins when the sun & moon are devoured by the wolf giants starting ragnarok
