The problem i have with Ragnarok is that, unlike God of war 2018, this one doesn't have a motive for the journey. In GoW 2018 you have a clear motive for the journey, Take Faye’s ashes to the highest peak. In Ragnarok you don't have it. Kratos want to stay and Atreus's wants to get involved. Why? Thor and Odin get to their house after 3 years. Why? Atreus wants to find Týr to know, God knows what. Atreus get in a fight with Kratos and go to ODIN! Why? Can you understand where im going?

yeah the script could have been much better given how they built anticipation of Ragnarok in the first game and even in the first few hours of the sequel... It turned out to be a bit shallow and anticlimactic - way to much of Atreus who was very annoying, boring final hours of the game and WTF moments at the end... I couldn't believe they didn't use the aesir to their full potential, instead they were all rather silly and reminded me about MCU's character writing with its contemporary dialogue. The first game was so much better.

It should have been: 2018, followed by a game centered around Atreus, where a fully-equipped Kratos (with the gear from the end of 2018) fights Thor and is killed early. Afterward, Atreus receives an explanation about the whereabouts and nature of the giants. Brok gets partially resurrected as a game piece, and some other things. Then, the second game finishes with Atreus rescuing Kratos from Hel many years later. Last is a third game, where Kratos seeks revenge on Odin and Thor by initiating Ragnarok.

The biggest problem I got with new God of War series is almost every cutscene and encounter feels like people in a greenscreen room arguing

Love your videos, keep them coming!

Im glad to be able to watch this even if it gets flagged. Good to see some more of your opnions on games. You have a clever way to describe them

You might never see this, but i really love your videos. I hope you keep making them! Here is a bit of engagement 💍

Another weird plot point for me was the scene when they group escapes on the flying boat. The random dude who got a whole dramatic scene that I was supposed to care about because of the dramatic music. Then you are given the boat but barely use twice after that.

Tim Schafer also worked on "Day of the Tentacle" (1993). Its wonderful 4-minute long opening credit sequence was animated by CalArts intern Kyle Balda, who went on to work for ILM, Pixar and Illumination.

The 1998 trailer has those two beautiful lines: - Guess they couldn't save me, eh? - No, but there's still a chance you could save me. ruclips.net/video/hV1NBHL9Fa4/видео.html

the music video thing looks awesome (unlike the overhyped, thoroughly banal pop that was Herald of darkness) the graphics is shit though. there's simple (like, say, Radio the universe) and there's primitive, and at this level of primitive it stops being a design statement and turns into offputting visual jank.

Does anyone else think a great full circle tragedy would be Calliope tearing her way out of the dead world he left behind and wreaking bloody revenge on all this new age be better bullshit? Just me? ok... I'll go.

Playing it for the first time i loved every second of it it was the first game i ever platinum trophied without trying to lol. With perfect hindisight it definitely was a mess though

I agree with a lot of your critique. But, you having no critique of Iron Wood and then also not liking the section with Thor in Muspelheim tells me that if you directed this game it would be the most boring thing on the planet.

You've earned a sub from me! Definitely seem like you are the same quality as eyepatch wolf!

I get your point but slightly disagree; part of the purpose of the zebra was to introduce Jerry's character. Since at that point in the narrative we didn't know that Jerry was the Firefly doctor in the first game, we still needed a moment to get an understanding of who he was as a person and to care about him. But things in narratives can have multiple purposes so I think your interpretation is valid as well.

"Press forward to watch" movie games belong in the bowels of hades

This was a very good and informative video. Subscribed.

The point I felt underwhelmed was the moment of when the group was together doing speeches before the Gjallarhorn was blown, you could count on your fingers the number of characters present. It didn't feel a war between realms, you couldn't perceive the scale of the impending Ragnarok, if felt too personal, a small conflict that only the characters you've met were a part of. The Gjallahorn should've been blown before an entire army prepared for a grand proportion war.

How did you miss the fact that the reason for Odin's visit is him noticing Atreus's search for Tyr?

Hi there. I think ragnarok is a very well written story so it is quite frustrating to see criticisms which have very good explanations within the text if you pay attention. Your first point concerns the starting point of the story and you question why it has to happen as it does. While you correctly acknowledge that the staves create a barrier that both hides people within and prevents people from entering, you missed that if odin can put a raven somewhere, he can travel to it. The most obvious example is when he hides a raven in the broom closet of sindris house when disguised as tyr. After they repaired the stave, the barrier is still highly effective. Odin cannot cross it, but he doesnt need to as he can circumvent it entirely. Odin knows where the house is and is highly motivated to get to kratos and atreus, so there is no reason to believe the events of the opening would not play out exactly as they do. It is well written and internally consistent. Your recollection of ragnaroks events in the south park style reveals that you have made the decision not to engage with the material. The cause and effect is as follows: Kratos learns of a prophecy predicting his death. Therefore, he hides atreus in their home to train and prepare him to eventually be alone. But, their food is finite due to fimbulwinter and they must venture outside the protection circle to gather food. Therefore, they must fight off freya in order to return home with the deer. Because of this, they have food to feed the wolves (one of which is sick and likely motivated the hunt in the first place). But the wolf succumbs to its sickness. Therefore, atreus is in a heightened emotional state and uses the death of fenrir to initiate a confrontation with kratos about alternative ways to avert the prophecy. But, kratos refuses to entertain them owing to his experiences with prophecy from the previous games. Therefore, atreus awakens his version of rage (in his case, a bear form) and loses control owing to his lack of training or knowledge. Finally, therefore, atreus destroys a stave, odin arrives, thor fight, tyr etc etc whole game happens. It is extremely tight, logical and grounded in the decisions each character would make. If there are other criticisms which are more substantial later, let me know but these two examples alone demonstrate a very poor understanding of the material being discussed.

Thinking about the knowledge gap issue that both Kratos and Atreus knew about Kratos' foretold death- it really doesn't make sense for either (but especially Atreus since he only promised to not spill the beans about Ironwood) to not bring it up in conversation.

Please make a video for on RDR2. I know you will give it 10/10

Hope I can manage our company to hire you for our game.

yeah basically there is a masterpiece hidden in bad direction or bad writers (i read they got more than 1 thats why you get multiple ideas drop to trash) my ultimate opinion: this game need it REALLY NEED IT a trilogy, not only by story but the world they wrote is so big literally 9 realms with 3-4 societies and the worlds in this game are absolute EMPTY not by gameplay but imagination or ideas (compare to 2018). i feel other mistakes are some kind of DISNEYFICATION not not because of the ejem "characters" but the characters dialogue, the actual plot, the end battle kinda parodies ENDGAME OF THE AVENGERS THE HELL or even the fact all ALL THE BOAT STORIES ARE 3/4 OR HALF ABOUT JOKES ABOUT characters talking about "nothing" at all and the rest are actual information, life stories and idontknow references to other stories. By the way the Tyr twist is not bad the real problem i see is how Odin is not a villain is not like THE BIG BOSS is just a dude searching a mask and fighting the Vanir gods bruh at least the Tyr plot should have consecuences like idontknow FOOD POISON OR MAYBE Freyr and Freya fighting because Tyr says something you know something BIG like Baldur destroying the portal and going to Hellheim you can feel the consequences not only in story (with the zeus ghost) but gameplay with literally a hell out a fights Plus my other BIG BIG BIG issue is not just the "THENS" is how Loki goes for answers never ask SOMETHING TO ODIN EVEN USING THE MASK FOR BLACKMAIL, Kratos a god who never believe in destiny and "time goddesses" NOW GOES TO THE NORNS BECAUSE THE PLOT SAY IT, or again Kratos droping the "believe you heart boy" speech MIDDLE THE BATTLE OF RAGNAROK and all because some humans die yeah the same god who kinda kill half of the population and im talking because he kill Baldur and the 3 years winter full of canibals begin BECAUSE OF KRATOS THE HELL the writers never think all this stuff a little more i feel dumb just by explaining how they are bad writers compare to the last game, even the VALHALLA DLC re-writes a lot A LOT OF THE OLD GAMES to make Kratos the good or the bad guy if the plot say it

I agree with your points in the video but you get a down vote for the censorship in the comments section brother. To steal a phrase... be better.

GOW 4 just had more of a presence and atmosphere as you traverse the realms with hearing mentions and stories of Thor and Odin's cruelty and cunning and just in general the lore of Norse mythology in the game and in Ragnarok it was kinda underwhelming how everything turned out and characters were presented

Im in 2:14 and you already convinced me to play it

My grevance is mine My sadness is mine My loss is mine

If I could offer my blood to make this channel more reachable, I would do so in a heartbeat. Great video!

What is it with these Feral Finnish people making SSS tier puzzle games?

I had been interested for a while thanks to Yakkocmn, so it was only a matter of time. but like everyone else, the cdawg vid got me. i bought the game for full piece after watching for 20 min, and I'm loving pushing my limits on how much I can figure out myself. This games amazing, thanks so much for talking about it.

If this game´s plot is terrible is due to Cory Balrog not being involved as well as the original creator, lack of story telling, cringe awful scenes, In the first game i was exited to see Atreus almost using Spartan Rage as i thought he would do somenting like Kratos in spartan Rage, Atreus looked skinny, thin and not manly unlike his father that was a downgrade on the character. Plot armour here and there with Freya it makes me think they just made it a long game for the sake for only being long and boring at times. Even the original creator was angry about Atreus´s personality as well as Kratos. Well that was a missed oportunity, i hope Kratos returns with a muscular and full of testoterone Atreus.

Interesting!

Thank you for talking about this game

13:02 Have to rewatch this a 2nd time to understand this joke 😅

I've struggled to put into words exactly why I didn't enjoy Ragnarok nearly as much as GoW4. This video perfectly lays out why the whole story felt "clunky" despite most individual scenes being fantastic. It's a shame, the game was so close to being amazing...

The moment you said Erasure, I knew it what to expect, nice video!

1:45 plot twist this time its CDAWGVA

Fortunately, I can tell you that, like others have probably said, you've succeeded. You introduced me to this game singlehandedly, and I've gone from casual interest to dreaming of monochrome hallways. I even caught myself humming the song at the shore of a lake at night yesterday. Suffice to say, thanks for giving me a new brand of insanity, this game is great so far and I'm loving every second

why Thor and Odin came is becuz in Mythology 3 years after Fimbulwinter the battle of Ragnarok will happen.. and that's why Faye said (there is no time) cuz Odin and Thor was going to be there cuz it was 3 years past exactly.

14:15 that hand prints is for blocking Freya.. that's why she didn't follow them sir..

and best part of 2018 was when he was taking back his Blades of Chaos and when he faved Athena and the Zeus in Helheim.. These moments were not in Ragnarok and even in Valhalla DLC the premise was that you have to Face your old self to grow.. but they didn't made younger Kratos final boss.. ppl said cuz if you were able to defeat younger version it would have been bad for brand.. but the whole thing is he shouldn't have to defeat Younger version of himself.. It should've ended with him saying (i forgive you) and then the younger version went invisible.. It would have been something that made us Cry our eyes out... But no, you have to fight Tyr 10times!

2:06 can we add another one?? Faye is soooooo bad! know i saw her I just wanna get back to 2018 and only hear her voice in soundtracks... i think soundtracks of 2018 portrayed Faye better than Ragnarok!!

This video itself is a frigging masterpiece. Mulholland drive is my favorite movie of all time with my favorite ending of all time so ending this with silencio made me a do a virtual standing ovation for this beautiful treatise of art deconstructing itself. *chefs kiss*

59:40 always thought it was weird oden said this, Kratos was worshipped by the Spartans. So yeah he knows how it feels lol
