God of War 4 has been one of the best games I have played in a long time and I dont regret buying it one bit.
Bragging video: My son, 8 years old, has better timing and more persistence than I'll ever have. Level 3 Kratos beating two level 6 heavy Realm Tear Draugr. He's good at this and even better at Bloodborne.
This Scene is one of my favorites for the fight an more so for the beautiful setting.
Looks familiar. Definitely not aww

Finally got around to playing God of war 4, made a little something in appreciation of that masterpiece.
Ice KOOL Kratos.
Cant believe I only just got around to playing this game, I already see why this won Game of the Year!

This part was soo tough on the first GMGOW run. Now though.....?

[Theory] A weapon in GOW 4 isn't fully upgraded

Posted: 19 Mar 2020 07:53 AM PDT

NOTE: I personally haven't see anything like this, but if this is a repeated idea, please let me know and I'll mark down this post.

I've seen a lot of theories thrown around about how the Blades of Chaos wound up under Kratos' floorboards, but I haven't seen any about their power consistency. I like to follow the school of though that Aries took them from Kratos in the first game and put them back in the underworld. Athena, being the goddess of war, simply thought to fashion her own version with her own powers instilled in them as the Blades of Athena, which she was then able to morph into the blades of exile (likely to instill a little more of the chaos flavor into them to defeat the escalated threats of GOW 3); and Kratos, leaving behind the Blades of Athena, acquired the Blades of Chaos again as he searched for a way of the Greek realm after the end of the GOW 3.

Nonetheless, my point in this post is to say this: The GOW 4 blades aren't yet "upgraded" to their full power. I know it's subjective to look at the current blades model and the Ascension (most recently developed) model and compare design (I think the current GOW 4 blades resemble the level 3 blades in games past); but then I also consider the magic behind it. Brok proclaims the blades 'reek of foreign magic.' This is because the Norse magic is rune based, and the Greek magic is blood orb based. Consider in games past, you power up all the gear by pouring countless red orbs into them. The life essence of the orbs magically alters and powers up the blades, growing them almost organically. In the Norse realms, items have runes applied to imbue their magic.

When Aries ripped the Blades of Chaos off of Kratos, some of the orb magic was also ripped away, returning the blades to ~level 3 power, and in their dormancy, the blades somewhat corroded. When Brok gets his hands on them to make improvements, he uses the only magic he knows, and adds runes. While this significantly increases their power at this level (and suffice to say maybe the blades are now more efficient and effectively honed than they've ever been), this doesn't actually increase their true power level. We are just getting more out of this power level. This isn't to say the runes are worse magic, but more to say it's not the nature of the blades. Their nature is to be fed the orb magic they burn with. This is why the blades quality is increased, but they never 'grow' as they did in games past outside of a few sharpened edges. This stark difference in magic source is most blatantly alluded to in the blades' ability to burn in Helheim, where no other Norse artifact could. I am theorizing that because the blades haven't been given any more orbs, they wont truly 'level up' completely until they are given some (maybe Brok and Sindri figure out how to craft with orb magic in the next game). I would be excited to see full level-5 beefed out blades with runes applied up against the likes of Thor/Mjolnir and Odin/Gungnir.

TL;DR: The Blades of Chaos naturally gain power through blood orbs, and due to their current absence in the Norse Realms, the blades have yet had an opportunity to truly be maxed out in power.

Atreus and Kratos

Posted: 19 Mar 2020 10:21 AM PDT

Did anyone else notice the fact that whenever Kratos went to say something to Atreus that wasn't meant Atreus always interrupted him? This isn't important, I just found it funny that he was never allowed to voice his opinion

It was also funny that when Kratos was starting to like Atreus Atreus became an edgelord and didn't care about Kratos

About Kratos and Giants

Posted: 19 Mar 2020 07:53 AM PDT

Thanks for your answers. I will be grateful if you enlighten me with your wisdom :) Here we go;

1.Why did Faye and Giants choose him as Loki's father? Tyr is a God too and he is their sworn ally after all. But they choose a foreign God could be worse than Odin. Kratos just want a peaceful life with his son and they are trying to put them into Ragnarok.

Correct me if I am wrong; Kratos has complete control over his own fate now. (after he killed the sisters of fate). But despite that it seems the Giants could predict all of his moves. I thought he supposed to be less predictable than others.
Why Faye didn't move her family to Jotunheim? (safety first) You could say; She wanted to trigger Ragnarok but Cory Barlog said; when they (Kratos and Faye) met each other; both of them already tired of fighting and they wanted to drop their arms. And she wants to trigger another war?
Kratos did cut the tree and Baldur found them.(Faye's intention) Maybe Faye and Giants foresaw Kratos's victory but thanks to Kratos we know all future events can be change. (Atreus's name and Kratos's all life is a proof). Baldur is no small fry and his indestructibility makes him greatest threat to all beings. What if Kratos did lost his battle against Baldur? (Unlikely, I know) Don't you think Faye risked her family?
Do you think Faye wanted Leviathan Axe because of Kratos? Maybe She thought "His future crusade against Aesir will not be easy and he will need a good weapon"

Hi guys, I just beat the main quest. I tried to use a portal to go back to the rivers passage, but now all the roads to go to any teleport door are blocked, I think the game just won't let me continue, any ideas o how to get to any Teleport door? thanks

KRATOS IS FARBAUTI

Posted: 19 Mar 2020 10:37 AM PDT

Kratos is Fárbauti . In Norse Mythology Fárbauti is the father of Loki and is his wife is Laufey (Faye) and at the end of the game in Joutenheim on the wall Kratos name translate as Fárbauti.
