I like how in the beginning of God of war (2018) kratos relies on atreus to translate the runes since he's not native to the lands

Then slowly but surely in god of war ragnarok (2022) he's able to draw/write simple runes, atreus and mimir must've muster their linguistic knowledge to him well.

So so many things to say about it, but this game is an absolutely fantastic adventure and Kratos is a great dad. 😤💞

As a child in Sparta, Kratos was taught merit solely in terms of power. The only thing that mattered was being strong and defeating your opponent. He was brought up with the idea that as a person you are not inherently deserving of survival, much less respect, if you cannot conquer. This does not in any way negate the the damage he causes - but he believes his worth is based in that damage. He has a wife and child that he loves but that love doesn’t hold a candle to his identity as a warrior.

Then he unwittingly kills them. This is the first time Kratos experiences firsthand the negative consequences of his own carnage. But still it’s all he knows. He plunges himself wholeheartedly into service for the gods, hoping that his skills as a fighter will lead to the absolving of his guilt. The opportunity presents itself to take revenge on Ares and he rushes into it without hesitation. This final request from the gods helps twofold for Kratos; he gets to kill the one he blames for the death of his family, and he thinks the reward will be to forget the role he played in their murder.

Killing Ares changes nothing. Kratos continues on with his shame, and the god of war ravages societies to the detriment of the gods. The lessons here are that revenge will not free you from your guilt, and leaning into the actions that caused this guilt will only further perpetuate the cycle of harm and consequent shame.

In GOW 2018, Kratos has changed, subdued in his hatred. He finds himself another lover and bears another child. It’s clear that his time in remorseful solitude then his time with Faye have led him to rethink the kind of person he wishes to be. He learns that his value is not only in the damage he can cause, but in how he chooses to use that violence, who he chooses to help or hurt. Then that lover dies, this time without Kratos’s involvement. He is left to raise their child alone. He is forced to ponder what lessons he wishes to impart upon the young budding god.

Throughout GOW 2018 and GOWR we see Kratos teaching Atreus to keep his compassion and truly choose for himself how he acts, and (while with some hiccups) trusting the boy to take care of what he needs to. This is something Kratos must learn too. In guiding the child into adulthood Kratos comes to know that he wishes to be a herald of peace, that he can trust himself to make decisions that lead to a positive outcome, that he is not simply destruction incarnate.
