Thor does briefly start getting more like Norse Thor in Avengers Infinity War. Then he shortly becomes a hopeless alcoholic and mellows out to Disney Thor again.
The puzzles are like some of the worst shit in GoW to me. However, everyone says you can't remove it because it's SO apart of the game. I just really enjoyed their take on Nordic mythology.
lol ... yeah the first three were pure action to me ... I mean, unless you count putting that woman to hold the wheel to keep the gate open which then kills her a puzzle too ....
But also: Why does Odin sound like he’s from New York?
lol I mean there's no arguing that, but I fucking love that actor ... but I definitely can't counter what you said 🤣
I tried getting into Ragnarok but Atreus was so annoying compared to the first and the Angrboda sections I found so incredibly boring it put me off of completing the game.
I solved that by simply thinking of it like a generic SciFi/Fantasy movie that coincidentally had some overlapping names with Nordic mythology. Still not great movies, especially after they just made everything into a comedy.

I tried to do that too. I failed to, though.

True. Chris Hemsworth has been good in exactly two movies, (as a hilarious himbo in Ghost Busters and as James Hunt in Rush) and Kat Dennings doesn't get enough screentime to improve the movies beyond "bad to mediocre" quality.
Just some guy with a hammer. Could fix anything, except his marriage.
Ancient incels liked his message about power and the subjugation of wenches to their men folk, and thus deified him as an arbiter of truth, valor, and justice
Wait until you read pretty much any source material whatsoever for any of the original Disney movies or older kids movies, like the little mermaid or Willy Wonka.

Being from a Nordic country, I could never get into the Thor movies due to how ridiculous everything about the fake lore was.
Which wouldn't be a problem except they're the only ones with the always brilliant Kat Dennings in them 😭
The ( . )( . ) always brilliant, Kat Dennings.
Not what I meant but sure, doesn't hurt either 😄
You ever play God of War Ragnarok?
Yeah, but didn't get very far before I got frustrated by all the puzzles and quit.

I don't even remember the first 3 games having puzzles unless you count the QTEs as puzzles. It was pure action.

Why do they all sound like Americans?
I agree with you COMPLETELY on both counts 😁🫶🏼

What about Thor according to Douglas Adams?
How about Terry Pratchett?
How about Adventures in Babysitting?
Pretty wild that same actor also played Private Pyle in Full Metal Jacket and the bug alien in Men In Black
That is pretty wild! I would have never even suspected!
Still reading his books, so I dunno about Thor in the TP universe :D
Does he appear in a discworld related book?
I don't know, I just wrapped up The Colour of Magic and am about to read the next one.
Ah OK, I mentioned Douglas Adams, because dirk gently books Thor appears :)
More books I need to read...
Do you mean Blind Io in Discworld or does Thor show up in another of Sir Pterry's books? Blind Io is more a compilation of multiple Roundworld gods.
But what about the historically accurate version?
Too long ago and nobody wrote it down.
Elon Musk is going to create it with grok.

If the source is european fairy tail prepare for gore.
I prefer Stargate Thor
Indeed!
Give him the Blood Eagle!

They're very fashionable these days
Ragnarok addressed this directly by showing Thor's family was guilty of committing atrocities, but Thor himself is innocent.
He’s chilled out in the modern age 🤷♂️

Blaine's a pain.
Thomas the worm in a train is not creepy?
Thor in god of war game... that... that was something
