Atreus/Loki birthing the World Serpent out of his mouth?
If that was the case, wouldn't the Wall call Atreus by his real name instead of by the name his mother wanted him to be called when he was born?
We know that because of its nature it wouldnt see time in the same way we do. Loki would become an important figure in this worlds future, the serpent has already seen or been to the future. Hes probably seen adult Loki, but he only looks familiar right now because Loki is still a child.
I would consider Loki to be his "true" name.
Plus,there's this teeny tiny little fact from the Norse myth that,well,Loki is his father..
So what is happening here?
We dont know yet. Kratos injured/dying in the future. (Maybe in the sequel game)
Which is probablu exactly whats going on with the wall mural at the end.
Actually,I'm not so sure..someone here already said it- I think it's Atreus singing this requiem to Kratos like he sang to him mother -some said it resembles his singing for the deer in that web game and I think it's true.
Ive never played the web game ao I wouldnt know. But thats an incredibly odd representation of song lol
I'm not a Norse myth savvy by any means,but I think that the serpent wasn't always a serpent,at least in the myth-he was cursed and was human before. But maybe they will change his origin story,but because the serpent said Atreus looked familiar to him,I think they will still go with him being his father.
Not just the fact that he's a snake, but he isn't supposed to exist if Loki is the father, on the other hand Mimir Mimir talked about the snake being sent back in time.
Man, I loved how fucking good the beards look in this game. they move in the wind and not just a texture like in god of war 2.
In case you didn't 't notice, both Kratos and Zeus in helheim have the same GOW3 models and they didn't bother changing them, let alone use the advanced hair and beard system thy have now.

The whole thing with time is going to be the driving factor here if it is the case. And considering how they handled the story of Baldur vs Loki I wouldnt be surprised if they kept it.
But yeah a lot of weird shit goes on in norse mythology. Like Thor cross dressing and marrying someone else as a trick.
I actually really liked that.

I would if could, I clicked the link but it went to a post I made.
A son learns from the father
Kratos: He (Modi) is beaten. Nor worth killing
Atreus: He's (baldr) beaten father. Not a threat

I bought Gaiman's "Norse Mythology" which seems to be a pretty good modern interpretation judging by reception. Ill probably grab sonething more traditional once I can find it. But Ive always had a thing for collecting physical media. Its nice to collect.
Nobody knows yet. Will probably be a plot point in a sequel
I meant this : https://www.resetera.com/threads/sp...beware-of-spoilers.31837/page-39#post-6983661
Does it work now?
I havent seen most of it in the game. There are some toxic areas you can access thanks to throwing your axe and freezing the gas, but other? I am not sure, i didnt finish the game on 100% and cant get to it until may. A lot of that got scrapped I would say.
I remember Cory saying in one fo the interviews that you need to chop a big tree to create a bridge though. But fellow pals here told me you don't even visit Vanaheim and those are the flora of Vanaheim so probably from it is in the game sadly. I asked you at that time if you visit Vanaheim or not.
I feel ya
Also after getting into this book a bit, I have to say that making Atreus be Loki was pretty genius. It works so damn well.
Whats the deal with the dwarf brothers teleportation? they are doing imposible feats of spawn
One of the login screens have them both as statues
What do you guys think this means? The possible death of Kratos in the future?

They use the same blue doorway you do, theyre just able to access it differently.
So, the runes on that mural panel Atreus didn't get to see:
Top left is andlát, death
Rightmost is hörmung, misery, distress, disaster
Bottom one is svik, deception, betrayal
Top right seems to be föður, some declension of father (probably should be read as andlát föður, father's death)
So, Kratos gets betrayed and dies.
