Surtr sounds like that chill grandpa that even though he fought in 3 different wars and struggles with doing most tasks, he keeps showing that good aura that makes anyones days better. And I absolutely love it.
@@bjuganda7758 He was reasonable. Very much. He gave Thor plenty of time. He even just advised him to not resist. Thor was bullying Surtur. Surtur only did what he was created for, he had no hard feelings towards Thor
Surtur Marvel Version has no wife, lol Unlike this, he's true warmonger but retired because he has Sinmara's heart but he doesn't want involve his love until he ultimately sacrifice by kratos using blades, so he became Ragnarok leaving Sinmara's burden
There is dialogue where Atreus asks Sutur being there at the beginning of creation. He asked him "what was it like" then Sutur replied "Loud". For some reason I find that fascinating to think about.
I think it's how simple Surtr talks. He barely if ever embellishes (except maybe when talking about Sinmara), it's all short and right to the point, but it doesn't lose its importance. He's one of the oldest beings in the nine realms. After eons, he probably doesn't see the point in dragging out speeches (a sharp contrast to Odin). He's honest, simple, and there's not a hint of deceit.
1:53 feels like Surtr was just breifly looking over his shoulders to acknowledge them leaving, but then turned the rest of his head the instant he saw those blades. Truly had no problem ending himself the second he knew his loved one would be safe.
I think at first he looked over because he was surprised how easily Kratos decided to walk away only to realize the blades. I feel like he was like "holy shit that was easy". Kratos just went "okay have a nice day"
He did not want to become Ragnorök because it would kill Sinmira, so when he realized he could become Ragnorök without it costing Sinmira’s life, he was fine with it
We spend only 15 mins with this essential character. For a game that is about Ragnarok, the whole Ragnarok part was extremely rushed and went too fast. So many key figures during Ragnarok in Norse mythology we only spend little time with and play a rather anticlimactic role. They should've gone for a trilogy as originally planned so the pacing would feel more natural and we would have gotten enough time to spend with these interesting characters. I get that they cannot show everthing on the forefront since this game is about Kratos and Atreus/Loki, but how the developers handled the End Times felt truly disappointing and left a rather sour taste in my mouth about the whole Norse arc.
I remember audibly saying "Wow he's pretty chill." Then he showed his heart, like oh right this guy literally has the heart of ice, so that's why he's chill.
This guy has been around since Creation. He's older than Odin, Zeus, even Chronos. Is that what makes his speech so calm and to the point? That he's already seen it all and doesn't care for elaboration any more? Or is it Sinmara's icy heart, as others said?
Probably a mix of both I imagine like the dude is older then dirt but his lovers heart helps him keep him cool (heh) but yeah I imagine it a mix of age and love
Good catch, I thing the character's writing/development on this game is great, it feels organic, you get attached to a character's behavior and want to know more about them. I would say that he just feels ready to die cus he believes in Ragnarok
He knows that he's fated to have a big role to play in Ragnarok, and he will die in the process. Him being calm shows he's accepted his fate. What's the point in tossing a temper tantrum over it, when you can prepare for your fated role instead
@@gorohei92 Yes, there is even a scene where Tyr (the real one you can free from the Asgardian prison on Nifleheim) is sitting on the ledge and looking out into the void whilst meditating.
I feel like 1:55 is also great. He sees the Blades of Chaos, and likely senses at some level their power, and suddenly a new path reveals itself to him and he asks, respectfully to see them knowing he isn't entitled to their power or even to touch them since they belong to someone else.
“There’s primordial fire in there” God damn everything this dude says commands your attention. The Greek and Norse pantheons seem worlds apart (no pun intended) yet the writers hint that their all connected by some greater truth. It’s not just in Chekhov’s mask and the reality tear in Odin’s basement but the fundamentals of the world they live in.
I don't usually like 'retcons', though yeah they never explained why the Blades could function in Hel in 4, but I found myself really liking this idea that the Blades function just fine in the Norse 'realms' cause they're not actually merely magical Greek weapons but weapons infused with primal creative power
I love that Surtr is a fire giant, but his heart is icy cold from Sinmara. As a result, his personality is quiet, dispassionate (Except about his love) and reserved. He doesn't even seem all that bugged about dying or destroying Asgard. I'll bet that when we meet Sinmara, she will be, due to Surtr's molten heart, fiery, alive, filled with emotion and feeling and purpose. She'll be grieving and furious and absolutely destroyed that Surtr died without her, because her heart is made of this "Primordial Fire" that Surtr gave her. A perfect tragedy.
@@Chemtrooper46 All MCU characters had potential : Loki , Thor , Heimdall , Odin but they decided to turn them into comic reliefs , the actors did the best they could . In the first Thor movie they were alright but they would of been much better in a much darker series and movies not disney crap . They did Thor dirty with the new movie , he is a total buffoon but i guess the disney kids like comedy .
Bro these characters are so relatable surtyr i was expecting to be some type of tyrant or some crazy mofo. But nah he just seems like some chill dude that would be in his 50s or 60s. No ego or anything, just talks really chill and explains stuff easily. "You got the horn right, then were good" . Actually im not gonna lie I actually enjoy alot the characters throughout this game they seem like realistic people and makes them more relatable and you will have a fun experience. The greek pantheon was way different when it came to characters, it just wasnt that funny or relalable. Actually scratch that kratos beating the breaks off every god as brutal as possible is funny but this game has just different feel to it. Its just more of a vibe i guess it checks for me
It just occurred to me that Surtr is like the only person to warn Kratos when some kind of empowerment he's about to receive is going to hurt. In fact, he's one of the most polite characters in the history of God of War.
3:25 I love Kratos's look of confusion with his swords in his hands. He's like a dog that got his bowl of food snatched from him right as he was about to eat. It radiates that John Travolta meme. "...What am I supposed to do now?"
@@TerminatorGundam300 Yes, as Hades realm was of Primordial origin. The Gods as a whole, (across all realms and lands) can probably relate to a single primordial point.
One of the many great things about Surtr is how he mirrors aspects of Kratos If he doesn't want or need to do something, he won't He would rather defy fate than put those he cares about in harm's way And he can smack a bitch miles with no effort
Surtur definitely makes a grand point when he states how he wouldn't sacrifice Sinmara for the greater good, anymore than Kratos would do the same thing, surrounding Atreus. It makes complete sense when you genuinely care about someone, whether they are your significant other, or your own children. There are definitely far too many people who wouldn't think twice about sacrificing someone else, for their own personal benefit.
Also notable how Kratos gets his point immediately. No argument, no more questions, just a brief “come” to Atreus. Kratos knew they had no chance cause he just gets it.
Fun fact; the Spark of the World is called Ginnungagap (Gaping Abyss) in Norse mythology. The realms and early life was created when the ice and fire from Niflheim and Muspelhiem merged. Its a pretty interesting read if you like to know how the world was formed in thie mythology.
@@fishcake2519 in god of war, greek world was created between the battle of the primordials ( chaos was one of them ) In original greek mythos nothing of this happen, just chaos given birth to gaia, uranus etc

Odin In Expectations: " You will regret, everything you have done to My Kingdom, Kratos. " Odin in Reality: " I don't care, what the f--- in sh-- would you even do if I didn't command you.

I like how initially you have a sense of unease around Surtr and almost felt like he was going to lash out at some point But it actually turns out he's really sad and just wanted to be left with his wife
I just never understood why Atreus didn’t ask questions about the Giants to Surtr? He was the first Giant to exist if I remember, he probably had some answers for Atreus.
He might have caught onto what Mimir said of him in the previous game; Surtr spends all of his time preparing for this one moment and has been doing so since forever, so it is likely his knowledge of the other giants is very limited.
Surtr is an enigma, and a beautiful one. The absolutely PERFECT mix of sharp and to the point dialogue. Present for all too short yet perfectly satisfying.
Honestly thought when Surtr grabbed the blades, I thought Kratos was going to be the one who destroys Asgard. But no, this is better, sadder, and just... Beautiful in a way.
Only thing that bugged me about the ending, was that it kinda felt like 'X' only died because the myths actually says he does doing what he does, when most of the myths in this game is proving to be a load of nonsense to misdirect someone who sees all... but X dying there, it felt wierd, especially in the sense of how he was actually holding Sutr back.
I do like that as surtr channels his fire into the Blades, the icy section of his chest seems to expand, like he’s giving up some vital portion of himself to carry this through
I love how kratos used the blades that took everything he loved now saved everything he loved shows that just like skofung story of these blades are still being written
I love how much you can take in from this scene. Surtr doesn't want to join with Simara to form Ragnarok because it will kill her, he figures out a loophole for becoming Ragnarok without Simara herself since he has her heart, he has all those swords discarded all over his forge because he keeps failing to make a blade that can withstand containing his fire, all in all he knows he still needs to become Ragnarok to stop Odin once and for all, he tenaciously sticks to his plan to become Ragnarok without Simara seemingly stuck in an endless loop of insanity but then, he finds his solution, his salvation, in Kratos and his Blades of Chaos "Forged in the foulest pits of Hades". He was unwilling to sacrifice Simara but, he was plenty willing to sacrifice himself to kill & stop Odin once and for all.
@@too_official6194 nah, surtr says "there's primordial fire IN those" the fire in the chaos blades is the same fire surtr and the spark of the world posses. all of reality revolves around the same principles here, kratos may not be from the realms, but the realms are still apart of the same reality as all the other god kingdoms. therefore they all posses the same "primordial fire."
@@too_official6194yeah to expand on what the other gent said, the GOW “earth” is still earth. Geographically the same - the difference is each geographical theology exists in its own pocket dimension essentially with its own creation myths. But the lands can be travelled to and fro just like a regular world. The creators just said on God of Wars world the distance to travel is a journey no mortal could accomplish - hence why Kratos is the only outsider in Scandinavia.
NGL, Surtr sounds just like Jeff Bridges, he is like "The Dude", Surtr should have had more screen time, such a calm and collected character, more a mentor than a tyrant.
That theme when he says “we are together” and then turns to show that he has Sinmara’s heart in his chest gives me chills every single damn time. Whether you loved or hated this game you’ve got to admit that damn did Bear put together an absolutely god tier soundtrack.
One line of dialogue reveals a detail of the Blades that no one knew about, and no one is really sure what to do with besides starting Ragnarok, but is interesting nonetheless.
out of a huge majority of characters in god of war, surtr actually seems to have it pretty good, he seems satisfied and contempt with everything, shows how much love can keep someone going
7:56 In this moment, Surtr is feeling many things at once. 1: Relief. His long mission of finding weapons able to hold primordial fire is over. 2: Happiness. He will be able to save the realms and fulfill his destiny. 3: Solace. He was able to save Sinmara from death.
Anyone else notice sinmaras heart beat steadily increased when surtr suggests sinmara isn’t needed, and he will solely sacrifice himself for the greater good of the realms. It’s like she feels the impending doom for him coming
I love Surtr’s tone. It’s like he’s just so unbelievably ancient and powerful that he can’t be bothered but to be 100% truthful.

Surtr is an enigma, and a beautiful one. The absolutely PERFECT mix of sharp and to the point dialogue. Present for all too short yet perfectly satisfying.
Honestly thought when Surtr grabbed the blades, I thought Kratos was going to be the one who destroys Asgard. But no, this is better, sadder, and just... Beautiful in a way.
Only thing that bugged me about the ending, was that it kinda felt like 'X' only died because the myths actually says he does doing what he does, when most of the myths in this game is proving to be a load of nonsense to misdirect someone who sees all... but X dying there, it felt wierd, especially in the sense of how he was actually holding Sutr back.
@@Outside85 no
ngl I thought surtr would be a pissed off fire giant
Yeah they fu**** a looot of things...
maybe he was when he had his heart
Having someone else's heart will probably do that to you
hearing characters like odin and surtr speak so plainly is jarring but kind of nice
I do like that as surtr channels his fire into the Blades, the icy section of his chest seems to expand, like he’s giving up some vital portion of himself to carry this through
This has got to be one of the better cutscenes.
1:15 you know,its the most amazing thing reality ever created.Even when there are bumps.
3:16 I laughed at this part
Sometimes loving someone is about choosing the lesser pain. I love this line.
I love how kratos used the blades that took everything he loved now saved everything he loved shows that just like skofung story of these blades are still being written
I love this version of Surtr
These scenes were my favorite in the game. He is so calm but commands attention and respect. His voice actor did a phenomenal job.
Surtr: Kratos, son of Zeus.
Kratos: Surtr, son of a bitch. You are alive.
Thor Ragnarok reference.
Calmest and most chill god in the entire series,
Kratos was getting ready to plunge those blades right into him, and he just casually holds up his hands and goes "Hold on bro. Not here."
surtr chill as hell bruh
My expectations: A giant blood thirsty lava monster.
What I got: A caring guy who would much rather be a family man.
Surtr switched up so quick until the dude saw the blade of chaos 💀
Giant Surtr Demon❌
Giant Surtr Doomer✅
I love how much you can take in from this scene. Surtr doesn't want to join with Simara to form Ragnarok because it will kill her, he figures out a loophole for becoming Ragnarok without Simara herself since he has her heart, he has all those swords discarded all over his forge because he keeps failing to make a blade that can withstand containing his fire, all in all he knows he still needs to become Ragnarok to stop Odin once and for all, he tenaciously sticks to his plan to become Ragnarok without Simara seemingly stuck in an endless loop of insanity but then, he finds his solution, his salvation, in Kratos and his Blades of Chaos "Forged in the foulest pits of Hades". He was unwilling to sacrifice Simara but, he was plenty willing to sacrifice himself to kill & stop Odin once and for all.
1:15 hardest line ever
6:58
It ain't like Kratos isn't used to having his arms burned.
This a different typa fire tho sutur is a primordial being that’s not a regular fire
@@too_official6194 nah, surtr says "there's primordial fire IN those" the fire in the chaos blades is the same fire surtr and the spark of the world posses. all of reality revolves around the same principles here, kratos may not be from the realms, but the realms are still apart of the same reality as all the other god kingdoms. therefore they all posses the same "primordial fire."
@@skylermeade that's metal af 🤘🏻
@@too_official6194yeah to expand on what the other gent said, the GOW “earth” is still earth. Geographically the same - the difference is each geographical theology exists in its own pocket dimension essentially with its own creation myths. But the lands can be travelled to and fro just like a regular world. The creators just said on God of Wars world the distance to travel is a journey no mortal could accomplish - hence why Kratos is the only outsider in Scandinavia.
Yeah, but i think is like, learn to take a punch, you can take it, but still hurts
Something about them trading hearts PHYSICALLY, while spoopy, is also endearing.
"We are together. Got her heart. She's got mine."
0:55
I could spend a lot of time around Surtr. Dude is calm and speaks plainly. It’d be a peaceful time.
Get too close however and he will flick you aside like a tick.
@@Outside85Found out that in his realm, he is the strongest character in Ragnarok. Even outside he is strong af
Sad to say this is after one of the other characters who speak plainly is no longer around…
this version of Surtr is like Kevin Flynn(Tron legacy) and I’m digging it man
Wow thanks for the likes😀😀
Got an urge to rewatch Tron Legacy during this as well
@@invalidcreations he give them “radical man” vibes
I'm glad someone else was hearing Kevin Flynn
I definitely though the actor sounded like Jeff Bridges or a person who has seen much throughout their entire life.
I get a little David Harbour in there too.
Can we all just appreciate how badass the sequence at 13:08 is?
Oh dude an at the end they pose for their rap album cover. Its badass
Kratos atreus rage was fuckin 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
NGL, Surtr sounds just like Jeff Bridges, he is like "The Dude", Surtr should have had more screen time, such a calm and collected character, more a mentor than a tyrant.
13:36 Badass!!!
He was really chill 😭
He was a chillll dude for a fire giant
The Spark of the world looks so fucking magical and awesome man
That theme when he says “we are together” and then turns to show that he has Sinmara’s heart in his chest gives me chills every single damn time.
Whether you loved or hated this game you’ve got to admit that damn did Bear put together an absolutely god tier soundtrack.
Rage of Sparta is just the GOW3 Kratos poping out
So gow3 spartan rage is gow2 kratos coming out?? 😭🤨
The VA and whoever wrote the lines for surtr freakin killed. Surely this scene is a highlight of this game for me.
That's ending was wild as fuck
I really like his voice, very soothing. And I was honestly not expecting him to be so pleasant.
in the like ten minutes we had with him he became an instant favorite
There’s nothing that gets me more hyped up in a game than the L3 + R3 prompt during a cutscene QTE because it NEVER disappoints
I feel like the moment Surtr decide to keep Sinmara away from Ragnarök was the moment the “prophecy” was going to be different
It is interesting how Ares was able to create a tool that Surtur himself couldn't.
Yeah,truly impressive!
One line of dialogue reveals a detail of the Blades that no one knew about, and no one is really sure what to do with besides starting Ragnarok, but is interesting nonetheless.
7:52 I wish i could express half the emotion Surtr did in those few seconds
Surtr was ironically a pretty chill dude.
Surtr really said “not here” literally last second. Bro trolled Kratos
out of a huge majority of characters in god of war, surtr actually seems to have it pretty good, he seems satisfied and contempt with everything, shows how much love can keep someone going
"Sorry I can't help, I'm in love."
*2 seconds later*
"What have I got to live for?"
I like the voice they chose for him
7:56
In this moment, Surtr is feeling many things at once.
1: Relief. His long mission of finding weapons able to hold primordial fire is over.
2: Happiness. He will be able to save the realms and fulfill his destiny.
3: Solace. He was able to save Sinmara from death.
“Elaborate” I love how efficiently Kratos speaks
Anyone else notice sinmaras heart beat steadily increased when surtr suggests sinmara isn’t needed, and he will solely sacrifice himself for the greater good of the realms. It’s like she feels the impending doom for him coming
Surtr's best line
"Have you ever been in love?..
It's pretty good."
Idk why I love this part so much, but I just do
Atreus rage epic
Hands down, the best shot of Kratos and Atreus in the game! 13:40
No more badass than standing side by side of a grizzly bear!!
It would make a sick album cover
@@joejardine4489 Agreed!
