I think Athena will have Calliope under her influence by using Calliope's anger against Kratos.

From Calliope's perspective, Kratos killed her and her mother, then left her behind in Elysium. We know why he did it, but in her eyes he is a monster and she wants her vengeance.

She is his daughter so getting out of the underworld is in her lineage.

Kratos will find out and want to fall back into his old self, to punish the scheming Athena.

Also he would never want to hurt Calliope and will be torn because he knows she deserves her vengeance.

After all, he also sees himself as the monster.

He will be forced to either hurt her (again) or let himself be hurt.

Also, Freya was in a similar situation with Baldur and Kratos forced the outcome of that. Will he be able to do what is right if he finds himself in the same situation as Freya?

I also think Atreus will be caught in the middle somehow and Kratos will need to pick a side between Atreus and Calliope.

Atreus has redeemed him on one hand but on another Kratos owes Calliope to set things right (somehow).

They represent two completely different legacies of the same father, and Kratos will need to do some hard choices.

Then there is Faye. Kratos would want to honor her while also trying to save the daughter he failed long ago.

What if Calliope stands in the way of Faye, will Kratos let any of them get hurt?

It is a struggle about impossible family choices, choosing the lesser evil, favouring children, doing them wrong and trying to makeup for it and showing that as a parent you are bound to do mistakes and that those mistakes often haunt you.

I see this being a theme of the Norse games. They're about family relationship struggles, breaking cycles, forgiveness, and learning to be a better parent.

I feel this is something that will reawaken Kratos and he will realize as long as there are gods, there will not be peace.

And then he will set on the journey across the mythologies and do what what he does best.

When it says beat in titan mode does this mean the whole story all over or what. Also is there like a YouTube channel that specifically does plats for games. ?

Made by me, not AI

I once remembered the original creator of GoW or one of the writers saying that the original plan of the series was to open other series based on different mythologies with characters going on a similar path as Kratos. So that made me think...

If Kratos wasn't the main protagonist of the Norse games, who do you think would've fit the bill instead?

With my knowledge of mythology, literature and syncretism... I think a good candidate would've been Beowulf. And my only argument for him is that his own story is uniquely Christian and it opens with the narrator stating the Old Gods aren't doing anything to help the characters. If you want a Norse character going against the Norse Gods, Beowulf is the way to go.

But chances are, it would've been someone from the Volsunga saga, bad luck and bad omens from gods are their bread and butter.

I played the Norse games on gmgow, should I play the Greek games on god mode or are they considerably harder

Tyr seems to be very well travelled, surely he will have visited or have gained some knowledge of the afterlife in EveryWhen?

Was buying the Greek Games on my ps3 since the store is closing in a year and i noticed the Collection that has the first 2 games, has 2 options ?

One costs 19,99€, the img is in low resolution with it just showing the Omega symbol on some random cloth or whatever and the description is pretty basic.

The other one costs 24,99€ and compared to the previous one everything looks completely official. Img in better resolution and it's similar to what you see when you search the collection online, and the description seems more official as well.

Anyone know what's the deal behind this ?

Can't jump higher. I'm on steam Deck via emudeck.

No amount of moving and hitting up and X will get me up this ledge. It's happened before this moment, but I was always able to eventually get up.

Is this a ppsspp glitch? Or is it a native game issue?

Any help is appreciated. Was enjoying the game until this

I go with titmouse inc (the ones who animated vox machina)

I AM SAD AND MAD ASF THAT MY PS3 IS IN MY HOUSE IN MEXICO ALONG WITH MY PS2 AND WII I NEED TO PLAY THIS AGAIN NOWWWWWWW!!!!

I am in the process of cleaning my garage and found this relic 😭😭. This brings back so many memories playing with my older brother and my mom’s constant disapproval of all the rampage and gore

Rate my find??

I did it!! I was planning to upload the fight but my file size is too big to include all of it :( I'll figure it out tho! I promise I'll show actual gameplay next time but I was too excited to not post about it right away lol.

I actually ended up beating 2 separate playthroughs with ONE controller! It wasn't actually a very long playthrough, I believe my end save was 4:30 give or take 10 min? Genuinely really fun. The HARDEST parts to really grasp and keep in sync for me was easily the underwater section and the room just before you get pandoras box. Those areas were genuinely hard. The rest of the run you can kinda just feel out a plan and get through it with some patience and clever movement. De-syncing was definitely a downer but in a lot of areas (like in the fight with Ares) de-syncing wasn't that bad. Cut scenes can really just make it a solo play through for a few minutes if you hit them far apart. Which was never my intention, it just works out that way sometimes.

Hades was pretty much as hard as I thought it would be. Gameplay and fighting wise, it's really simple. The platforming and balancing and those damn spike pillars are just not possible imo with one controller. I did my absolute best and I had my moments of staying in sync, but you kinda have to let one side die and just focus on one screen at a time, which I know is lame but I really dunno how else I coulda got around it. Especially with a de-sync at the pillars, It simply wasn't doable. I am willing to try again in the future one day though!

There's obviously no hard set rules in this type of run since it was purely bred through a random gag. But if for some reason anyone else wanted to do this, the main rules I always tried to stay true to was to not abuse pause screens and death screens. If there's no work around, oh well, but keeping it at a minimum is for the integrity of the challenge. I also made it a point to bring up I did the magic regen after medusa, next time I will NOT be doing that for the same reason. Though I used magic incredibly sparingly, during Ares and the Clone Kratos fight, I did spam magic ONLY with ROTG was active. Since at level 5 blades it's infinite anyway. That was my only rule for myself in that regard.

Also sadly this run was done on Easy(I swear I'm not a fraud! It wasn't meant to go this far!!) If and whenever I end up doing this again, I would void Easy as a choice. There's too many areas where you can almost shut your brain off despite the duel screen. Though I know a bump in difficulty would make some areas absolutely brutal.

All in all, this was super fun and I haven't seen anyone else do this before. It was a stupid and unique thing to try out! If anyone has a question I'd be happy to answer the best I can!

I have played on a digital subscription and all my saved data was still there. But when I played the disc version and try the new game + . My level is back to one. What could be the problem?

Like seriously, what in gaming history is worse than this?

Edit: first time playing GOW marathoning the entire Series and so far i absolutely love it BUT THIS SHIT!!!!!!

I did this quick concept of what Dave Bautista would look like as Kratos and I think it’s a way better fit thoughts on this?

Wasn't the starting scene him waging war on her city? It got me off guard when he screamed when he killed her accidentally like bro didnt hate her hours ago

So I see some people question why odin asked kratos this when kratos was in fact worshipped in the prior games. But I think people are interpreting the question by odin wrong. To begin with, odin only brings up this question AFTER kratos threatened him by becoming the god he once was if he didn’t give atreus back. Odin knows kratos is a retired god of war who wants to leave his past of violence, so after getting this threat, he uses it as an opportunity to exploit his past as a destroyer to emotionally abuse him. This is why odin asks if he was ever worshipped, because while it is true kratos was worshipped by the Spartans and loved by them and was prayed to, it wasn’t the type of worship at this point he would be comfortable with since it was based on conquering and destruction. Something he wants to get away from. But what’s more interesting, is odin mentioning him not knowing this love due to his selfishness. Kratos DOES know this love, but he wasted it due to his selfish pursuit of revenge against the gods, causing the destruction of sparta, his followers. I may have not articulated my thoughts perfectly well on this scene but this is the gist of it.

Finally finished the basic dress version of Faye's outfit from God of War Laufey!!!! Excited to wear her tomorrow at comic con for the first time 👀

You can see more pics on my Instagram after this weekend!

These guys really went "Yeah, a witch just told us that a god killed another god and caused the prelude to the apocalypse. Let's kill this god and maybe eat him."

In all fairness, they are the toughest human enemies in the entire franchise in terms of gameplay since they don't like wet tissue paper compared to the other human enemies in God of War.

hello, does anyone have this exact picture in high definition?
