Why Didn't Just Kratos Lie When Odin Offers Him The Deal?

Why Didn't Just Kratos Lie When Odin Offers Him The Deal?

I'm just curious because he knows if he says 'No,' obviously Odin and Thor won't just leave, and they will bother or fight them right then and there. But if he said 'Yes' and then violated their agreement soon, they would at least leave the house first without a fight, which buys Kratos and Atreus critical time to prepare, upgrade their gear, and plan their next moves on their own terms. Plus, they could just say yes to the deal but tell Odin to exclude the Freya part, because they know Odin would probably just harm her under the guise of 'protecting' them. Even if the peace didn't last, feigning agreement and negotiating those terms gives them a massive tactical advantage early on, allowing Atreus to potentially spy on Asgard from the inside instead of forcing a dangerous fight in their own backyard when they weren't fully ready."

avx2 bypass review

I just finished God of War Ragnarok with a supposedly unsupported cpu, with mod of course.

My cpu is I7 3770. It was actually very surprising to see the performance. I got 50-70 fps depending on the region and stuttering is actually minimal considering my ancient setup.

I chose this picture because Vanaheim is the most Cpu intensive in the game (at least for me) and overall cpu usage can only reach about 65% maximum in this game. Maybe this game can perform better if the avx2 isnt somewhat mandatory and officially support older cpu.

p/s: gpu is rx5600 xt

"Your brassiere strap is showing."

My take on the meme format that's been going around. The lengths I'll go to to procrastinate working

Side missions with Atreus or *****?

Atreus is my favorite character and I love the father-son dynamic, so on my first playthrough I made sure to finish every side mission I could with Atreus before the end of the main story.

Was doing my replay this time around and after watching a lot of interviews about how much the directors/developers loved >!Freya's interactions as the companion!< I figured I'd switch it up and leave a lot of content for >!her.!< Tbh, the conversations are lackluster and I def preferred having Atreus's commentary during side quests.

Anyone out there feel differently?

Just venting 👇

Sef is getting on my nerves, here me out, first she told thor to protect his family by killing atreus for killing magni and modi but the one who actually killed them is odin , the both of them were odin hounds and they both thought that kratos will surrender and hand over his son , every fucked up thing happened to any aesir god from 2018 to ragnarok is odin fault so why thor wants to kill atreus although his sons who started the whole bad blood thing and heimdall he would have not died if he didn’t threat to kill atreus and even baldur who was sent to hunt a giant ended up killed so the aesir are the problem and even if sef became a good person still its nerve wrecking.

Took me 3 years and another playthrough of GoW 2018 to realize Kratos returns a phrase to Freya

What the title says. The dialogue between Kratos and Freya in Ragnarok has etched deeply into my mind. Imagine my surprise when I found out that Freya says exactly the same words to Kratos in the GoW 2018. The whole phrase is not shown as one line in Ragnarok.

GoW 2018 Freya asks Kratos for forgiveness, because she concealed her Godhood

GoW Ragnarok Kratos asks for forgiveness, because he took the choice to live from her (p1)

GoW Ragnarok Kratos asks for forgiveness, because he took the choice to live from her (p2)

I wish they had parts where Kratos was FULL God Mode

I wish there were more parts in the game where they send tons of weak enemies at Kratos and you just tear them to shreds.

Similar to Cyperpunk 2077 when you play your first mission as Johnny Silverhand, and your hand cannon one shots everyone.

I understand enemies need to be strong and Kratos needs to be weak for the game to feel challenging. But I just want more “I feel like a God” moments

Coming back to Ragnarok

Hey guys,

Recently been doing a full replay of the God of War series after the announcement of Laufey. Made it through the Greek saga and a NG+ playthrough of 2018 on GMGOW over the last month or so. It was only my second playthrough of 2018, first time since 2020. I thought I might be overwhelmed with all of the build options and what not for NG+ in GoW 2018, but it came back to me pretty quick and had a blast utilizing all of the mechanics, weapons, and runic attacks from the jump.

I did a 100% run of Ragnarok on release, but never came back for a second playthrough or Valhalla. I know Valhalla has a lot of cosmetics and even >!the legacy rage mode that carries over to NG+.!< Before starting this run of Ragnarok, I figured I’d get a feel for what you all think may be best for this playthrough.

Would Valhalla be a good reintroduction to the mechanics of Ragnarok?

Should I finish Valhalla and then jump into NG+? Or start a fresh save and play Valhalla at the end of that run?

Might be overthinking it, but let me know what you guys think!

Thanks

I didn't see this being discussed but Do you think Freyr might go to the higher plane? similar to Athena

It is said that Athena made a selfless act in death sacrificing herself for Zeus. Which is exactly what Freyr did in order to save everyone he sacrificed himself. I think bro deserves that higher plane stuff
