Summary

The video humorously explains why the creator dislikes Alfheim in God of War (2018), focusing on three complaints:

  • The enemies: Dark Elves are frustrating to fight because they dodge and block axe throws, blind Kratos, and make direct attacks difficult. The Dark Elf King is portrayed as an even tougher version of the regular enemies.
  • The objectives: The realm feels repetitive, with frequent elevator rides, backtracking, and tasks involving the Ringed Temple and its bridge. Carrying a large crystal also slows progress. The creator jokes that constant journal objectives get in the way of fighting.
  • The plot and conflict: The story presents a war between Light Elves and Dark Elves, but the creator finds the moral framing confusing. Atreus questions the Dark Elves’ actions, while Kratos dismisses them as part of war. The video argues that the Light Elves’ peaceful appearance and the Dark Elves’ apparent cruelty make it difficult to sympathize with Kratos’s stance.

The video ends by leaning toward Atreus’s view and suggesting that the Dark Elves are clearly in the wrong.
