The heavy draugr are just so hard to kill, and it makes it hard to pick off the regular ones
I finally got it after like 20 tries by spamming the axe throw early on, and leaving one of the two heavy draugr barely alive while I fight the other so that the next wave wouldn’t start
If you were to put yourself in the judge’s shoes, would you consider that Kratos, through all his good deeds in Scandinavia, has made up for the mess he caused in Greece?
Or are Kratos’s actions so disgusting and cruel to you that it will never be possible for the balance it to be 50-50?
In the moment, they explain it away with it just being fimbulwinter. But now that we know GOW Laufey is set in the afterlife, so it by extension will probably have tie in's into the light of alfheim and lake of souls. and we also know that it heavily ties into the story of 2018 and Ragnarok, I think it is verv likely this event will be something explained in GOW Laufey
So im playing ragnarok, trying to 100% all realms and I collect this stolen treasure artifact. Ankh IS the symbol of life in ancient Egyptian culture but whe I was reading the description in the journal, Kratos says he has longed to visit the land but didn’t he already go in the comics?
(I didn’t read the comics so correct me if im wrong)
I think this one might be number one
On X there is a post from Santa Monica Studio in which Deborah Ann Woll at SDCC explains her first day on set of GoW:Laufey. They show a video from the volume where she is supposed to wield an axe. But what is then visible for a second is that on the left you can clearly see a guy holding the Leviathan axe prop.
Additionally on the ground there are letters written for positioning. Faye is standing on the "F" letter position and in front of her is a "T" letter and behind it a stack with "T" letters.
I think the "F" is obviously for "Faye" but "T" stands for "Tree" and behind is a stack of "Tree".
She seems to chop wood for a pyre (not hers as Kratos did this when she died) or for firewood.
Since it was the first day of set, I feel this is the first scene in the game.
I feel it will resemble the GOW 2018 beginning where Kratos chops down wood.
How is this looking better than some most recent games?
Besides the fact that >!Brook would be alive !<
You manage to port Jax & Daxter, Ratchet & Clank, and Sly Cooper on the PS4/PS5 But not God of War PS2 games?
So far I've only played God of War: Ragnarok, 2018, and God of War 3. But even with just those games, I've noticed that none of the gods are having a good time being one. It seems that being a god is more of a sentence of suffering. But why is this? Why can't any god live a life without problems? Is it really their nature? Or is there something in their behavior that they're ignoring? And for some reason, I realized that some gods think they're having a good time being those beings, but they're still living miserable lives.
I do agree that compared to the Norse Gods, the Greek Gods are more like natural forces. But that does not mean the Norse Gods are inferior. In fact, the Norse Gods can affect nature just like the Greek Gods.
Ymir is a natural force, as well as a being of pure creation and chaos. Yet Aesir such as Odin believed they were superior, so Odin slew him and used his body to craft multiple dimensions. Ymir’s magical guts and blood nearly drowned all of existence.
Thor can summon thunderstorms across the sea. He is so powerful that his clash with Jörmungandr shook all Nine Realms. The World Tree's very existence supports all of creation; every one of its strands transcends space and time, and its branches support all Nine Realms. During Ragnarök, Thor struck with such force that even the World Tree was splintered, sending Jörmungandr back through time. Even Kratos was stunned by this feat, describing it as “madness”. His battle with Laufey destroyed a Vanir town, tore apart a valley, and ripped apart locals' souls.
Baldur can absorb any element and evolve into a form immune to it. By absorbing fire, Baldur could become invulnerable to the Primordial Fire within the Blades of Chaos. His strength is also incredibly formidable. In his first‑encounter melee against Kratos, the two split the ground and changed the landscape. He also temporarily knocked Jörmungandr unconscious.
Heimdall can read others’ minds and thoughts, allowing him to dodge nearly every attack. Even though Mimir knew Kratos had killed gods greater than Heimdall, he still believed Kratos couldn't touch him. Kratos did not disagree, and obtained a specialized weapon that could overpopulate Heimdall’s senses in order to harm him.
Njörd can generate ferocious winds that whipped across the sea. As one of the high Vanir Gods, he wields Temporal Magic, which can stop or rewind time at will. This Temporal Magic once even halted the movement of the sun and moon.
Freyr, wielding Ingrid, temporarily held back Ragnarök’s final blow, which destroyed Asgard and shook the World Tree down to its roots. He also blighted the lands of Asgard by reversing his enchantments.
Freya is a master of SeiĂ°r magic. This power can confuse foes into fighting one another, commune with nature itself, defy the natural order and summon the dead to her will, corrupt and even reshape souls. Because of her curse, Baldur obtained invulnerability to almost anything.
Yeah, none of this can match the Greek Sisters of Fate. No Norse god can manipulate fate the way they can, but neither can any Greek god. The Sisters of Fate are not Greek Gods, and they're above the gods. It was they who caused the Titans’ defeat in the Great War; in other words, they manipulated the fates of the Greek gods and secured their victory. That Norse magic cannot rival their power does not make the Norse gods inferior to the Greek gods.
Besides, if Norse gods are inferior to Greek gods, Tyr wouldn't be one of the strongest gods Kratos has ever faced right?
This happened on my PS5 back in 2022; then I switched to Steam Deck OLED, and somehow the issue is still the same. I uninstalled the game, still the same; then verified the files, still the same issue; and restarted the Steam Deck OLED, so now I'm just stuck here. I can't progress.
I’d love to read Kratos’s reflections from the Greek era on the events unfolding around him, the gods, the enemies he defeated, and how these experiences shaped and changed his mental state throughout the trilogy.
Hi! I'm sharing this sculpture I made last year of Kratos and Atreus. It's made entirely of polymer clay and acrylic paint. For the ice effect on the axe, I used pigmented UV resin. It stands 18 cm tall.
I hope you like it!
