Every Mythical Inaccuracy in God of War 3

I know it might shock some people but the circle button appearing above enemies to command your character to brutally murder them is not in the myths.

I think the reason Apollo never appeared or died in this series is because if he was killed, his death would probably get rid of all music, and we can’t have a god of war game without epic music.

Fun fact: If Haphaestus sounds familiar, he’s voiced by Rip Torn, the same man who voices Zeus in Disney’s Hercules

Imagine if zeus's bodyguards were actually there with Zeus watching kratos fight poseidon and when they saw kratos brutalizing poseidon they got so scared that they left immediately and then zeus was just standing there alone and disappointed

I like to imagine that the reason why the other Olympians were not killed was because they had a plan and its finally come to fruition. Maybe Hestia, Aphrodite, Demeter, Apollo, Artemis and Dionysus (and the other minor gods whom Kratos didn't kill) purposefully stayed out of Kratos' way in order for Kratos to kill Zeus and the other Olympians so that the ones who remained, would rebuild Greece with themselves becoming the new rulers. Maybe Hestia, Demeter, Apollo, Artemis, Aphrodite and Dionysus would be the new rulers of Olympus with Hestia being Queen of the gods (Because she's goddess of the Hearth, Homes, Families and the State).

Ironically, Hercules trying to take Kratos' title of god of War is kinda accurate since in the myth Heracles "took" Cratus' title as the god of Strenght

The fact that Hercules Heracles is taking orders from Hera, of all people, is so hilarious considering that Hera kept screwing his life over and over again.

The rage he feels when Heracles is misnamed in Greek myth is as strong as Kratos’ rage😂 Love your videos dude

Poseidon dies The remaining water sprits/deities "I guess everybody take five?" Zues "Do something!" The remaining water sprits/deities "You ain't the God of us"

I think that "wraith form" from Zeus is supposed to be the hate that consumed him. It's the reason why Kratos's hope is what kills him for good. Edit: I have been corrected. It is fear that consumed Zeus, not hate.

Epimetheus is the representation of afterthought, which is very fitting since his appearance was definitely an afterthought

I love how kratos in this game is finding pandoras box to "kill a god" when before he obtain the box he already is killing gods

Fun fact, Artemis was supposed to appear in this game but was cut out due to time constraints. She was depicted as half-woman half-lioness (with goat horns and lizard tail no less) for some reason.

I always found it interesting how similar Kratos’s story is to Heracles. Kinda wanna see a Heracles game in a GOW style now

Just a quick note: Hermes’s winged helmet is also a misconception, in original greek myths he wears petasos, which is a hat with similar shape to the „classic” winged helmet

Fun fact, Achilles being dipped in the Styx by his mom to become impervious to damage never appeared in Homer's original Illiad. The Achilles heel doesn't play a part until the first century ad when it was codified in the Achillid.

I think the reason we don't see a lot of the gods like Apollo is because they were smart and didn't get in the way. Specifically I could see it where the gods who hated Zeus more than anything just sat back and let Kratos do the work for them. Apollo in particular could have secretly been reviving Kratos with the death cure his son made just to get rid of Zeus as for why Apollo would do this well don't forget Zeus killed Apollo's son.

"I guess if hera died everyone would be getting divorced" Made me laugh unreasonably loudly

"Where the hell is Apollo in this entire series?" Gone. He knew better.

The Heracles running gag never gets old.
