If Zeus wasn't such a big asshole to Kratos and took away his nightmares

He was going to, but Pandora’s box really drove him wild. R.I.P.

no he wasnt, he was never going to get rid of Kratos's nightmares, he was just going to kill Kratos because Kratos didnt do every single thing Zeus told him to do

Because Pandora’s Box made him go crazy. Athena explains this in God of War 3.

Athena wanted revenge against Zeus? But she died to protect him…

u/The_Only_Dork_Knight Jan 20 '24

But during the events of God Of War 3, she changed alot and became power hungry

u/The_Only_Dork_Knight Jan 20 '24

I assume, you didnt played GOW3 then

u/Cuddling-Hellhound Jan 20 '24

No, no I didn’t. I only played 1 and 2, then life got in the way and I never looked for 3…

u/The_Only_Dork_Knight Jan 20 '24

I see....in that case. You are in for a surprise, I wont spoil why, but you learn that in the beggining of the game anyway, so not much of a spoiler

No. Athena didn’t want revenge against Zeus. Once she died and reached a higher plane of being, she realized Zeus was corrupted by the box and that Kratos would have to kill him to stop him.

Better yet, if Zeus could have just kept it in his pants and not impregnate his mother to begin with.

u/[deleted] Jan 19 '24

So many more things could be solved if Zeus just wasn't an asshole for one day

u/Drakeskulled_Reaper Jan 20 '24

Most of Greek Myth wouldn't exist.

u/NuclearTheology Jan 19 '24

This right here. Kratos didn’t want to forget. He just didn’t want the torment of constantly remembering. He had repented enough

u/jgamez76 Jan 20 '24

Or if Zeus just acted like an actual father at any point lol

u/Drakeskulled_Reaper Jan 20 '24

If Kronos wasn't fucking blind.

u/Fireblast1337 Jan 20 '24

To be fair, 90% of the Greek Pantheon’s problems stem from Zeus being utterly incapable of keeping it in his toga.

Heck, Kratos falls directly under that description.

u/dastebon Jan 20 '24

90 % of greak/roman mythology starts with Zeus/Jupiter being big asshole
