[Analysis 2]
On the flip side, Asura’s analysis is practically perfect in my opinion
I don’t feel the need to change anything except maybe adding some more about Yasha or Augus, but it’s not needed
Beautifully well made all throughout
Tho I suppose only having 1 game to talk about makes it easier

DevilArtemis cooked hard as usual given this fight is 6 mins long!
1st half is great. The impact of Asura’s attacks, Kratos’ use of his weapons & really good atmospheres as well
There is SOME hints of jank, but again.. Budget!
We can’t have it all, but it’s small enough to ignore anyway
Here’s where my main issue is however
Easiest way I can describe the 2nd half of the fight’s problem is the same as Frieza VS Megatron
Lil’ too much time used on THE reference that could’ve been used for Wrath Asura to do more in the fight, rather than him getting one-shot by Kratos

This fight is meant to be more cinematic & "sympathetic" and that’s evident in the ending
K: "You are a monster no longer…"
A: "I never was!…"
Speaking of, Hussein Mohammed nailed the Old Kratos’ vibes & Christopher Guerrero KILLED IT with Asura’s angry vocals!
Reiði aka. "Wrath" (of course) is a unique soundtrack, in the good way
Instead of going all hardcore with the angry themes from both games, it blends together both Norse GoW’s viking theme (fitting an Older Kratos) & the Orchestral songs from Asura’s Wrath
Great job as always, Therewolf 👍
Given how they could’ve potentially gave Kratos STUPID Scaling, I’m surprised how close the verdict was here
Going in, I knew that the weapons would play a huge role and I was right. Plus, as Wiz explained, we DO see Kratos do crazy stuff. The lore was mostly used to add context

Young Zeus beat Cronos < Old Zeus is said to be much stronger than Young Zeus < Kratos beat Old Zeus
