Despite how Freya screwed over Baldur, I can’t help but adore her interactions with Atreus. You can tell that she still has strong motherly instincts despite what’s happened to her, and seeing as how the boy just lost his mother I find it so cute how she treats him.
Her attempt to protect Baldur from his predicted death became the cause. A self-fulfilling prophecy, like what happened to Oedipus. If she had known that, she wouldn’t have cursed her son.
“She’s average” “She’s fuckable” No, she’s realistic with a realistic, attractive facial structure. Women that would be attractive in real life often look “ugly” in games because you all expect an oversexualised, perfect model.
Freya is supposed to be extremely kind and motherly in the mythology. Protecting humans and innocents from monsters and beasts and from Odin's selfish wrath, although selflessly taking Odin's punishment later on. She was displayed amazingly here.
In this case, her motherly and protective nature went too far when she ruined Baldur’s life. By making him immortal and unable to taste, smell, and feel, he stopped living and just existed.
@@stephenking5852He was always immortal since he's a god. Immortal just means you can't die from old age, it doesn't necessarily mean unkillable. It's easy to get the two mixed up
@@thatguyluke242 plzz no Kratos should not raise his hand on woman and this woman is special she saved his boy's life and if he has to then freya(model) is very thin and Kratos is very big she will not survive KRATOS one punch.
I can't help but adore and pity Freya. She's a kind and loving but lonely and traumatized soul. Her betrayal by Odin, abandonment by her people and forced isolation in one realm made her all the more hyper paranoid, domineering and overprotective when it came to the one good, pure thing she still had in her life that gave her joy, peace and comfort - her child. That lady got dealt a raw deal all the way around. What's weird is that she looks just like Julia Roberts or Alanis Morissette.
@@blueaddiction6954 Ares only represents war, specifically the bloody, violent aspects. Athena represents much more, like wisdom and craftsmanship. As for war, she represents its honorable, strategic, and disciplinary aspects.
I dig that Kratos' did not judge Freya's actions to harshly. He couldn't let her die and let her psychotic son live but at the same time he understood he would act no differently if someone had done the same to Atreus. Like it sucks that she hates him but I get it.
Exactly. I think that despite the consequences Kratos and son will experience after this, Kratos did the right thing and killed Baldur like a mad dog being put down.
@@lightbluewaves5526 We will see. I think she'll be an antagonist at first, and then come around and help them out later on, and tell Kratos she's doing it for Boi...
Honestly I love Freya's character and how caring she is as a mother and one in her various imposing positions. Leader of the Vanir, Queen of the Valkyries, Wife of Odin and Mother of Baldur.... Why she failed as Baldur's mother is not that she _didn't_ love him or _abused_ him, what she did to Baldur was much worse. She ruined his life in the only way worse than whatever Thor did to Modi, by being overprotective of her child and controlling him (via her magic) with selfish intentions being part of her reasons for it. Taking away his choice in a major life-altering decision and cursing him with the inability to feel anything physically. A parent that would have zero faith in their child's own ability is destined to make them incapable of anything on their own. Baldur's resentment and hatred of her is understood when nothing so much as makes him move. Can you imagine simply moving around unable to feel your foot hitting the ground, eating with tasting the meal in your mouth, being entirely numb to everything. That sounds like a nightmare. One Freya would not remove, even though Baldur _begged her_ to remove it. All because of a random _Rune_ telling Freya her son will die a needless death. When she made Baldur incapable of feeling, she made him this empty, morbidly indifferent monster of a god, and thus resulting in his death. It's as a wise old Chinese Tortoise once said.... "One often meets their destiny on the road they take to avoid it."
It's like you don't even really exist (with everything else insisting that you do, thinking that's enough to make a difference when really it's just insulting my intelligence)
Freya and her domain in this game seemed to so vibrantly capture the nature oriented beauty, color, and splendor of the Vanir gods and goddesses. This is very beautifully portrayed.
I sincerely hope Freya does not go into revenge mode in GOW5. I sympathize with her loss, but Kratos did her a favor. Freya's son wanted her dead and only a fool would allow themselves to be killed over guilt
She is totally gonna be a boss in the next game. If you listen closely mimir said she was looking for her Valkyrie wings and warrior spirit. My guess is you’ll be against her and Thor in the next one.
The voice acting at the end, when she is weeping over her son, almost makes ME weep man. How actors can convey so much emotional agony through their voice is something I'll never grasp, but forever appreciate.
It's a bit sad that Freya misinterpreted what the runes prophesied at her child's birth, she didn't think for one minute that it could actually be referring to her. Then again how could she, smothering her child with selfish love. Prophecies end up happening because people always fulfil them on their way to avoid them.
People say Freya is over-protecting her son. Well, I guess that's kinda true, but if a mother foresaw her child's death ahead of her own, and she happened to possess godly power, what do you think she's gonna do? Our mortal mothers don't have that power, so we don't see them doing this stuff, but I don't think they are, on average, a lot less protective than Freya.
.... How are you defending her choice? I get it, a mother's love yadda yadda yadda... But she took her son's life away by in a desperate attempt to prevent his death... And ultimately ended being the cause of his death In a indirect way If you can't see the problem then you shouldn't be a parent.
@@CurtieMac I don't think anyone was defending Freya's choices, I think they were just saying that it is difficult to hate Freya for her choices. A deeply tortured individual with a kind heart who had been dealt the worst hand in the world. Her kind heart led her astray, no doubt about that, and though I pity her, I pity Baldur even more for being dealt the worse hand of being loved by a traumatized Freya. They both deserved the sympathy.... Neither should be hated....
vKayster I love what they did with her character. Since she was a vanir god she was extremely benevolent but in the end her own kindness was her undoing as that is what drove baldur to insanity. And eventualy in a piece of dramatic irony kratos takes "everything" from her the same way she took "everything" from baldur. Great character arc
Considering people see the Valkyries as absolutely the hardest bosses in the game, if they make Freya, queen of the Valkyries, a relatively easy fight, I am going to be pissed.
@@hopper8514 What if their fights were all cut scene and the GOW 5 doesn't have any actual fights with her? Seeing how she didn't regain her wings in any of trailers, safe to say she might not regain her powers and Odin did cursed her to not able to harm a soul or even defends herself, so fighting with Kratos in her states is probably futile. Maybe, all we see in trailers are all their is to it and the true boss is not her but Odin or Thor. Maybe through his love & sacrifices for his son Atreus, allow Freya some form of clarity and learn to forgive Kratos which would make her an ally, not an enemy. Maybe they somehow forgive each other and join hands to defeat Odin?
@@hopper8514 well, I’m 5 months later, maybe cause I beat them in normal difficulty(I chose hard difficulty first time I played the game, but I switched cause I hated enemy super armor, it wasn’t even fair)but if you know their moves and how to counter it, it becomes really easy to defeat them
Her overprotection towards Baldur made him incapable of feeling anything, even the good feelings, he was numb for every sensation, I would be pissed too.
I mean he didn't feel any pain probably can't taste food can't feel cold or warm can't feel the air can't feel his steps his body and he is over 100 years old if you think about it you can emphatize with Baldur even though you know what he was trying to do was bad he still had his reasons
I found Freya's interaction with atreus to be really cute. She still has a strong maternal instinct and dotes on him, which I was glad for considering we ain't getting that sort of affection from Kratos lmao
a parent's pain can't be described les one experiences it. Freya's fear for the loss of her son took over her sense, and keeping him alive was her only priority. Sure, it backfires, but in the moment of distress, I doubt any parents would have done any different.
Ah man, Freya begging them not to hurt her boy throughout the fight and then her scene at the end... right in the feels. Such a moving performance. The whole cast are phenomenal!
She gonna come back as a powerful Valkyrie Queen Witch fueled with revenge for Kratos. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if she tries to get Atreus to turn on Kratos.
I just want to point out the black tattoos that are around Freya’s arm and fingers, because those were never on her until the very end of the game. Which means something happened to her or she did something that we don’t know about. Hopefully more will be answered in the sequel.
She should have just fled. The invulnerability spell was broken - that way Kratos wouldn't have had to snap his neck (Baldur was beaten after the fight and alive).
You know hindsight 20/20 her demeanor when you first meet her is quite telling. Her protective nature leads her to have at times a rather desperate and headstrong personality. You can hear her anger just a bit when she finds out the boar was shot needlessly and the way she said she wouldn't let the boar die seemed rather threatening to be honest.
I know this might not happen, but I hope we get Atreus and Freya moments in the next game. Just those little moments where she acts like a mother, and maybe teaches him extra things. I know we see her attacking Kratos in the trailer, though I still hope she comes around.
Freya: I will unleash every agony upon you! Kratos: Woman I genocided an entire pantheon single-handedly and I have a son who is prophesied to become more powerful than even me, do you REALLY think your threats matter to me?
Freya, the only goddess to talk back at Kratos without afraid to get angry at. I'm not counting Athena because she spoke to godly, Freya can get aggressive like kratos in a conversation.
Talk about smothering your child. I would of went insane too. I can’t even stand when my mom used to get involved in my personal relationships when I was in school.
@Simon Farre Sorry to say it, but they badly raped those stories. Magni and Modi making mom jokes to a kid? Getting killed by a bald old man who doesn't know how to swing his axe in proper fashion? Them dying and being cruel at all instead of surviving Ragnarok, and dedicating their lives to selflessly help a handful of humans rebuild? Or how about Odin being a rapist asshole who rips off his wife's wings for no reason, instead of being a wise stern leader attempting to keep all the worlds intact? Or Thor being nothing beyond a strong nationalist instead of a bloodthirsty psychopath? How about the fact that there's an explanation for almost everything in Norse mythology, instead of simply saying ''this is how it is. deal with it.'' Like this game does? I liked the game too, but the way they thoroughly raped the mythos really bothered me. They just had to make the ''bad guys'' so overly incomprehensible and evil again. Why not give us a compelling story with an understandable villain instead? People are being dumbed down too much to get that I guess...
I don't think Freya is going to be the real enemy of Kratos. Given the fact that she appeared to want to say something but couldn't. Hopefully she will understand and move on...but she is a God after all and God must die.
Snore Topez Are you implying that by "All Gods" you mean not only the ones of polytheism but also the intent to target the one from monotheism? Monotheism at least can explain how mankind can speak in different languages, why there's a standard of universal good and evil, if there's life in humanity then there must be something/someone responsible in creating them, etc.
I hate that the aftermath of the final boss fight of GofW4 is essentially setting things up to transform Freya into a tragic villain-type in the next game in the series as I was really really hoping to see Freya become a recurring ally to Kratos & Atreus thru out this new exciting GofW cycle, maybe even see her ultimately become a new love interest to Kratos & a new mother to Atreus. I hate seeing her suddenly at odds with Kratos big-time after she helped out both him & Atreus alot in their journey and after she & Atreus were beginning to develop a kind of mother & son-like bond with one another. I get that despite Baldur trying to kill her & him being bat-shit crazy that at the end of the day he was still her son & all and it grieved her to see him dead but she has to know that Kratos only killed Baldur in order to save her & not outta ruthless malice & bloodlust. I just hope that in GofW5 that she does not go into full-blown vengeful villain mode and that somehow she will reconcile with Kratos as I'd really like to see her relationship with both Kratos & Atreus further developed.
i don't think so. mimir told Kratos and Atreus that only Freya knows the weakness of the walls of Asgard.. during ragnarok we all know that Kratos and Atreus will participate so it's very likely that Freya will be on their side at the end... besides mimir also mentioned to give Freya time as she is still at a loss and grieving for her son's death.... we all say bad things that we don't mean when we're angry.. something like that.
Maybe now Freya will realize what it is she did to her son. Just as she took everything from her son, she feels like Kratos took everything from her when he killed Baldur. It was a cycle that she started... and it probably won't end until she realizes that.
"He saved your life!" "He robbed me of EVERYTHING!" It's such a short exchange, but will forever make me cry. She was ready to die at the hands of a son who spent a god's lifetime hating her, just because he said that's what he wanted. She was so in love with motherhood that she couldn't see a life past it, even though it tormented her son. Freya was so blind to the pain she put him through and the fact that his death hurt her so much just never stops feeling like a gut punch. I don't think there exists a possible way where that line delivery could be better.
Kinda ironic that Kratos reiterates the same thing his Father Zeus says in GoW 2 when stating that "the cycle ends here." He does say a little more about being better but still.
I do wish in the next game kratos manages to reclaim Freya’s wings and return her Godlike power and maybe it will help freya over her grief by maybe Reviving her son since she is the Queen of Valkyries and maybe break the spells odin put upon her
I once heard that revenants are witches who have used like too much magic and destroyed themselves, like splicers in bioshock. So I’m really scared that the events of this game make her go crazy and closer to become a revenant. A rather really really strong revenant
Rabeea Safady I enjoy how both, Egyptian and Japanese mythology seem more fleshed out and in touch with the culture whether modern or ancient. Other mythologies just seem like old fanfic
@@INCOGNITO-iq4qy But they ruined this by making the Norse gods a carbon copy of the Greek ones. Why couldn't they make an enticing villain instead? In its place we got a head who literally cannot stop talking about how unnecessarily cruel the gods are (even the ones that aren't in Mythology like Baldr, Odin, Thor, and Magni & Modi especially). I mean Odin tricks his wife to fuck with her, then uses her own magic against her and rips off her wings, poisons her children against her, and banishes her because... why!? Why the fuck would they make that story canon without a very good fucking explanation? No one likes an extremely bland villain like that. An evil villain needs an explanation for being evil. It's why Kratos' character works. We all know why he did what he did back in the older games, if we didn't we'd view him as a boring psychopath.
He might in a later game. Kratos probably understands what Freya is going through and will likely try to get her off the super rampage path she's about to go down. Especially having gone down that path himself. If he actually manages to do that, I can see them banging.
Lesbo Shibe she didn't see how much of a hypocrite she was to the end.. Kratos did to her what she did to Baldur.. at the end of the day both mother and son may have been driven mad
well, you know what they say, "the pattern of love is almost the same as pattern of insanity". There you go, love disguised as insanity, or insanity disguised as love.
53:36 shit gives me chills. I think this might be the greatest game ever made. I’ve played ps and Xbox exclusives and I can’t think of a more enjoyable game than this one. I felt like I was playing a movie
You know I was just starting to like her, in fact I could see her story in a way related to Kratos considering she was both cheated and betrayed by the gods then casted aside like a broken weapon which is why she helped them. But she was a fool to think Kratos killed her son, in truth her son died the moment she cursed him. Whoever that was that was only the shell of the son she knew and he had to be killed considering even after he was released he still had that bloodthirsty lunacy. Although had she not intervened I think Baldur was going to thank Atreus then be done with it. Her sweet boy no longer existed after she cursed him so if she wanted to blame someone for that, she should look at her reflection cuz when all is said and done she killed him.
I would have to warn Freya not to treat my son Atreus like that or she'd better prepare to be a step-mother.. Sheesh! She's lovely when she nurtures him like that. 🥵

Freya voice actor is one of the best I ever seen in a game. Her and Judge was amazing on this game.
I found Freya's interaction with atreus to be really cute. She still has a strong maternal instinct and dotes on him, which I was glad for considering we ain't getting that sort of affection from Kratos lmao
a parent's pain can't be described les one experiences it. Freya's fear for the loss of her son took over her sense, and keeping him alive was her only priority. Sure, it backfires, but in the moment of distress, I doubt any parents would have done any different.
Ah man, Freya begging them not to hurt her boy throughout the fight and then her scene at the end... right in the feels. Such a moving performance. The whole cast are phenomenal!
Mocap makes story games crazy good, right before she sends Kratos outside she smirks at him, it’s so small
She gonna come back as a powerful Valkyrie Queen Witch fueled with revenge for Kratos. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if she tries to get Atreus to turn on Kratos.
Lol she literally tried in the final fight. She said: "Child, help me stop him!"
@@tjadams1089 😮😮😮😮 I didnt notice that thanks!!..........omg we all know Atreus real name sooooooooo he might 😈 (excited for the future)
From the trailer for god of war ragnorok you might be right
5:30
“Fine… lambs crest…… I’m a fucking god of war” god I wish they kept that in
"This path you walk... vengeance. You will find no peace. I know"
~ Kratos
27:50 i think this is the most vulnerable we ever see kratos
Nah, when he tried to get the sword of olympus back. Even his people are shocked
"I will rain down every agony.." The voice acting gave me chills, she really sounded so broken
Freya's character and her voice is really soothing
I like how Kratos calmly talks to Freya when he gets back to her with the heart
"There's a shortcut beneath the house that leads safely out of these woods"
*immediately attacked by Nightmares*
I just want to point out the black tattoos that are around Freya’s arm and fingers, because those were never on her until the very end of the game. Which means something happened to her or she did something that we don’t know about. Hopefully more will be answered in the sequel.
Thought I was the only person to notice that...I found that very odd...
were talking about how her finger are black right?
she ways had them even early on. but they do get more pronounced.
27:54 when he said "will you help me?" and the voice crack it broke my heart :(
The desperation in Kratos’s voice when his boy is ill breaks my heart
"Yeah, my father doesn't like people either."
"B O I."
😅
I love how Kratos and Atrues work together when fighting
She is delusional.
Even if Kratos hadn't saved her, he would most likely have had to kill Baldur anyway.
She should have just fled. The invulnerability spell was broken - that way Kratos wouldn't have had to snap his neck (Baldur was beaten after the fight and alive).
Typanoid Exactly. Had she left after Kratos spared him then he would still be alive.
I mean Kratos could have easily just choked him leaving him weaker like he did earlier, so that she can scadoodle into the woods again
Doubt it. She was determined to "make things right". It's why she was conveniently there when we were about to fight baldur.
Baldur would have attacked Kratos had she fled.
He would have been forced to kill him regardless.
Damn, Freya lives under a Torterra?
JITCY9107 Referencing Pokémon 😂 😂 😂 😂
LMFAOOO 😂😂😂
JITCY9107 when I first found that out I laughed so hard 😂
Her feet must be killing her though. Walking across snow all day barefoot.
Well she is a god so she probably has super strength and durability like the others.
Freya Is a Pretty Character in God of War and the voice acting sounds Amazing it's like watching a real movie
I feel like one of the reason’s Freya’s motherly towards Atreus is because he reminds her of Baldur as a young child.
Yeah and she even says in Ragnarok that as a kid Baldur was like Atreus before she put that spell on him.
40:58 when you want to buy snacks but your mom doesn’t let you
greenteamatcha 😂😂😂
LOL
Bruh😂😂😂
😂😂😭
You will not do this!
Freya: Stop hurting my boy!
Me: Lady, that’s a grown ass man.
Boy
You know hindsight 20/20 her demeanor when you first meet her is quite telling. Her protective nature leads her to have at times a rather desperate and headstrong personality. You can hear her anger just a bit when she finds out the boar was shot needlessly and the way she said she wouldn't let the boar die seemed rather threatening to be honest.
I know this might not happen, but I hope we get Atreus and Freya moments in the next game. Just those little moments where she acts like a mother, and maybe teaches him extra things. I know we see her attacking Kratos in the trailer, though I still hope she comes around.
If i had to guess we kill freya in the next game
Now they are partners, in combat, but could change by third game
wish granted!
Freya: I will unleash every agony upon you!
Kratos: Woman I genocided an entire pantheon single-handedly and I have a son who is prophesied to become more powerful than even me, do you REALLY think your threats matter to me?
Boy
And mimir was just there the whole time. Hanging around
@Ahmed Al-thabeti me too unless he talks
Freya is kinda hot!
She has some Julia Roberts (young her of course) kind of beauty going on.
she's the goddess of love, also she's heavily inspired to her voice actress. When I first saw the actress and then saw Freya, I was like wow...
Then you gotta see Freya's VA. Boi! Damn hot too lol
@Nich Gregory She is the queen of the valkyries... You have no clue of norse Gods mythology read books. Idiot.
@@moonbender95 Queen of the valkyries actually. These clueless people these days...
Freya, the only goddess to talk back at Kratos without afraid to get angry at. I'm not counting Athena because she spoke to godly, Freya can get aggressive like kratos in a conversation.
27:20 I am still a god! Go away. 🤣
"I saved your life!" ~ Kratos
"You didn't save my life! You ruined my DEATH!" ~ Freya
Talk about smothering your child. I would of went insane too. I can’t even stand when my mom used to get involved in my personal relationships when I was in school.
K. T. What does your personal life have to do anything with God of War absolutely nothing
K. T. Yeah why would your mom care who you hang out with or the things you do together grow up
EDPOOLL: VR you child. He's making a comparison between the personalities of his mother and freya.
Sarcastic Cigar you child that's a funny one that will scar me for Life ho my God he said so sarcastically
@Simon Farre Sorry to say it, but they badly raped those stories. Magni and Modi making mom jokes to a kid? Getting killed by a bald old man who doesn't know how to swing his axe in proper fashion? Them dying and being cruel at all instead of surviving Ragnarok, and dedicating their lives to selflessly help a handful of humans rebuild?
Or how about Odin being a rapist asshole who rips off his wife's wings for no reason, instead of being a wise stern leader attempting to keep all the worlds intact? Or Thor being nothing beyond a strong nationalist instead of a bloodthirsty psychopath? How about the fact that there's an explanation for almost everything in Norse mythology, instead of simply saying ''this is how it is. deal with it.'' Like this game does?
I liked the game too, but the way they thoroughly raped the mythos really bothered me. They just had to make the ''bad guys'' so overly incomprehensible and evil again. Why not give us a compelling story with an understandable villain instead? People are being dumbed down too much to get that I guess...
I don't think Freya is going to be the real enemy of Kratos. Given the fact that she appeared to want to say something but couldn't. Hopefully she will understand and move on...but she is a God after all and God must die.
Polytheistic god, to be precise.
Darsi Padilla
No, All Gods.
Snore Topez Are you implying that by "All Gods" you mean not only the ones of polytheism but also the intent to target the one from monotheism? Monotheism at least can explain how mankind can speak in different languages, why there's a standard of universal good and evil, if there's life in humanity then there must be something/someone responsible in creating them, etc.
gods present in hinduism are all literally omnipotent and are incapable of death. god himself is the same way.

I hate that the aftermath of the final boss fight of GofW4 is essentially setting things up to transform Freya into a tragic villain-type in the next game in the series as I was really really hoping to see Freya become a recurring ally to Kratos & Atreus thru out this new exciting GofW cycle, maybe even see her ultimately become a new love interest to Kratos & a new mother to Atreus.
I hate seeing her suddenly at odds with Kratos big-time after she helped out both him & Atreus alot in their journey and after she & Atreus were beginning to develop a kind of mother & son-like bond with one another. I get that despite Baldur trying to kill her & him being bat-shit crazy that at the end of the day he was still her son & all and it grieved her to see him dead but she has to know that Kratos only killed Baldur in order to save her & not outta ruthless malice & bloodlust.
I just hope that in GofW5 that she does not go into full-blown vengeful villain mode and that somehow she will reconcile with Kratos as I'd really like to see her relationship with both Kratos & Atreus further developed.
We all want that
I still ship it.
Me too but didn't Odin curse Freya so that she couldn't harm anyone too?
i don't think so. mimir told Kratos and Atreus that only Freya knows the weakness of the walls of Asgard.. during ragnarok we all know that Kratos and Atreus will participate so it's very likely that Freya will be on their side at the end... besides mimir also mentioned to give Freya time as she is still at a loss and grieving for her son's death.... we all say bad things that we don't mean when we're angry.. something like that.
I really hope Mimir is right that she will come back to sanity, because he was right about the world being better with her in it.
Maybe now Freya will realize what it is she did to her son. Just as she took everything from her son, she feels like Kratos took everything from her when he killed Baldur. It was a cycle that she started... and it probably won't end until she realizes that.
Freya: the gods of these realms don't take kindly to outsiders.
Tyr: I take kindly to outsiders
Coz Tyr was an outsider many times.
Atreus: You're really really strong
Kratos: You ain't seen nothing yet
*BOI*
"He saved your life!"
"He robbed me of EVERYTHING!"
It's such a short exchange, but will forever make me cry. She was ready to die at the hands of a son who spent a god's lifetime hating her, just because he said that's what he wanted. She was so in love with motherhood that she couldn't see a life past it, even though it tormented her son. Freya was so blind to the pain she put him through and the fact that his death hurt her so much just never stops feeling like a gut punch. I don't think there exists a possible way where that line delivery could be better.
Kinda ironic that Kratos reiterates the same thing his Father Zeus says in GoW 2 when stating that "the cycle ends here." He does say a little more about being better but still.
Still shipping Kraya.
Don't do that
No, just no.
Let's not go there, please, the guy just had about enough.
Bruh Freya could end up reviving Zeus and Athena to tag team with Thor killing Kratos.
Mr. Unknown I don't think she has the power to revive Zeus, it's a different kind of magic
I don’t want to fight Freya in the next game. I want to make amends.
i want some love with her 😍
I love Freya.
Who wouldn't, she is just so hot
the story of Freya taught me one thing. Odin is worse than Zeus
Fighting a battle to death with her son while she keeps screaming all the match to both to stop is really sad :(
I do wish in the next game kratos manages to reclaim Freya’s wings and return her Godlike power
and maybe it will help freya over her grief by maybe Reviving her son since she is the Queen of Valkyries and maybe break the spells odin put upon her
I just finished the game yesterday and can’t wait for GoW5. The hype for more god fights is insane.
"Lambcress... I'm the fucking God of War"
"You didn't hurt your back didn't you?"
'Im still a God! Go away"
They are all so sassy xD
Freya:I am also the goddess of war.
Kratos:😤
I once heard that revenants are witches who have used like too much magic and destroyed themselves, like splicers in bioshock. So I’m really scared that the events of this game make her go crazy and closer to become a revenant. A rather really really strong revenant
I just love how Freya never put up with any of Kratos' or Atreus' bullshit.
They made freya beautiful really i love her❤️
I thought Baldur's face will turn into Hercules Face
Fischer That's what should have happened! Lol.
The Norse Mythology is really so much more intersting than Greek Mythology
Rabeea Safady I enjoy how both, Egyptian and Japanese mythology seem more fleshed out and in touch with the culture whether modern or ancient. Other mythologies just seem like old fanfic
Rabeea Safady I love both. I can't choose. Both have fascinating stories.
Because even before GoW we're familiar with the Greek mythology. We all knew the Greek gods are a bunch of a*sholes
@@INCOGNITO-iq4qy But they ruined this by making the Norse gods a carbon copy of the Greek ones. Why couldn't they make an enticing villain instead? In its place we got a head who literally cannot stop talking about how unnecessarily cruel the gods are (even the ones that aren't in Mythology like Baldr, Odin, Thor, and Magni & Modi especially). I mean Odin tricks his wife to fuck with her, then uses her own magic against her and rips off her wings, poisons her children against her, and banishes her because... why!? Why the fuck would they make that story canon without a very good fucking explanation? No one likes an extremely bland villain like that. An evil villain needs an explanation for being evil. It's why Kratos' character works. We all know why he did what he did back in the older games, if we didn't we'd view him as a boring psychopath.
@Rational PoC imagine being an elitist over mythology
I came here to see if people would say more about Freya, but all you have said so far in the comments is that she is OVERPROTECTIVE but, she's HOT.
Freya best waifu 2018
I was hoping kratos would bone Freya...
WTF?
Why would you think of something like that?
he was trying to follow up with the logic of the other games, where kratos get laid with any girl that appears in the game that is not an enemy.
They should make Atreus sleep more when he got sick, then Kratos will have time to bang Freya
He might in a later game. Kratos probably understands what Freya is going through and will likely try to get her off the super rampage path she's about to go down. Especially having gone down that path himself. If he actually manages to do that, I can see them banging.
52:37 This Scene is So Fucking Strong. It sent Chills Through my Spine.
Freya is really selfish, if she dies the same thing happens when Herah died.
Lesbo Shibe yes, she loves his son in a selfish ưay, that’s why Baldur hates her.
Idk man.. After getting exiled by her own husband and lost the godly powers, I guess her son was the only thing she has to live for
Lesbo Shibe she didn't see how much of a hypocrite she was to the end.. Kratos did to her what she did to Baldur.. at the end of the day both mother and son may have been driven mad
well, you know what they say, "the pattern of love is almost the same as pattern of insanity". There you go, love disguised as insanity, or insanity disguised as love.
Well she dous care about her son baldur
26:31 I always laugh when kratos hitted that wall
52:38 The voice of Freya is very powerful and different.
Who else will be pissed if we end up killing her in a sequel?
53:36 shit gives me chills. I think this might be the greatest game ever made. I’ve played ps and Xbox exclusives and I can’t think of a more enjoyable game than this one. I felt like I was playing a movie
Freya would be like Floyd’s mom. “He would never hurt a fly, he’s a good boy”
You know I was just starting to like her, in fact I could see her story in a way related to Kratos considering she was both cheated and betrayed by the gods then casted aside like a broken weapon which is why she helped them. But she was a fool to think Kratos killed her son, in truth her son died the moment she cursed him. Whoever that was that was only the shell of the son she knew and he had to be killed considering even after he was released he still had that bloodthirsty lunacy. Although had she not intervened I think Baldur was going to thank Atreus then be done with it. Her sweet boy no longer existed after she cursed him so if she wanted to blame someone for that, she should look at her reflection cuz when all is said and done she killed him.
I would have to warn Freya not to treat my son Atreus like that or she'd better prepare to be a step-mother.. Sheesh! She's lovely when she nurtures him like that. 🥵
27:20 😂😂 I'm still a god ; go away 😂🤣
The way Atreus follows her too ♡♡♡
"You didnt hurt your back did you" ahhhhhh so anazing
Well Kratos's actor did actually nice forshadowing on that.
When she regains her wings, I hope she doesn’t become another enemy to kill. Freya, Beautiful Freya: plz don’t fuck with Kratos.
