It’s a shame that such a logical, consistent, well-done, yet still different character design still seems to be a lightning rod of controversy, but since this is becoming a bit of a talking point at the moment, let our final word on the matter be that God of War: Ragnarok‘s Thor looks amazing and that we can’t wait to see more of him whenever the game is eventually released for PS4 and PS5. He looks like he’s going to be one of Kratos’ toughest challenges yet, and we can’t wait to see these two face off in what should be a truly epic battle. Whereas Hemsworth’s look in Endgame was mostly played for laughs (which is honestly pretty much how many body types are still treated in mainstream media when they’re portrayed at all), it’s pretty clear that this point that Ragnarok‘s Thor is no laughing matter. That really is the best thing about this design. ytxHDAY9wl- ThatOldGamerGuy September 10, 2021 The dad bod (now officially god bod) community. It’s nice to see someone who is badass but also has fluff. The complex family dynamics of God of War Ragnarok 's Thor - his wife, daughter, and sons - sets him up as a complex individual with motivation, and his pre-destined fate - to kill, and be killed, by the World Serpent during Ragnarok proper - gives the audience motivation to find out what will happen to him. Please, JUST ONCE, let us fluffy guys have a character who looks like us and isn’t a joke character. To the people hating on Thor’s look in #GodofWar … Actually, the majority of people seem to be rushing to the defense of Thor’s design via hilarious and accurate observations. While some are saying that they’re not going to buy God of War: Ragnarok due to their belief that this design is somehow mocking Thor, Vikings, and (in some especially sad cases), human males everywhere, we highly doubt that PlayStation Studios is sweating the heat. Thor’s story in God of War Ragnarok is quite a tragic tale. Not only are there various body types in the world, but the popular perception of what kinds of people have what body types and how we perceive their abilities based on a quick look at those body types has become warped to the point of absurdity. From a tortured family life to substance abuse, the god of thunder has seen better days. That’s certainly how we’re used to seeing such characters portrayed in most modern forms of entertainment, despite the fact that some of the strongest, toughest, and most athletically impressive people in the real world look nothing like on-screen superheroes. In their mind, Thor should be a muscular warrior with abs that cut diamonds and biceps that would have gotten him kicked out of the WWF in the early ’90s. Look, you probably already know what the dissenters are saying. Of course, that brings us to the main controversy at the moment: the divide between those who love this design and those who look at it and simply see “Fat Thor” (a label also applied to Chris Hemsworth’s aforementioned look in Avengers: Endgame). I mean – Mimir straight up called Thor a "fat dobber" in the previous game, why do people act surprised now to see the God of Thunder having a beer belly? #GodofWarRagnorok /Xj6nGTWGNn- Alex R September 10, 2021
