What Happened in the First Timeline? God of War Ragnarök Theory

The question " what happened in the first timeline? " is one that I've been purposely trying to stay away from due to lack of information. But now that Fenrir is a confirmed character for God of War Ragnarok, we REALLY have to talk about it. So let's do it

Kuba I have a theory that might catch your interest. I hope so... It goes like this... Basically it has to do a lot with time dilation between the nine realms. If I am not mistaken when Kratos travel to Hellheim from His own perspective it seems like time passes slower. In order for this to make actual sense time must go faster in Hellheim than in Midgard so that when someone travels back to Midgard it gets the feel to him/her that time got somewhat stuck there. When comparing Midgard with Jotunheim the same thing happens but in the opposite direction. In Jotunheim time must pass slower than that of Midgard so that when someone returns from Jotunheim they actually return to a Midgard from the future. I believe that Is how time travel mechanic is tied to the game. Imagine if Atreus for example were sent by Kratos to live in Hellheim for one Midgard year. That could probably equal to 15 years in Hellheim, since time passes faster there, so that when Atreus returns to Midgard he will be an adult and from Kratos perspective only one year has passed. So by having clarified how the time dilation mechanic works I Will just state my little theory. Since time passes in each realm differently since the beggining of all realms would not that mean that Hellheim for example Is more ahead in terms of quantity of events. Think of it has a race between all the realms since the beggining of time in which all of them compete to see who is more ahead in the future and Hellheim Is the one winning it since time passes faster there and more chains of events have ocurred there. So would not that technically mean that each time someone travels to Hellheim, he or she travels to the future since Hellheim Is the realm who Is the one most ahead in time? If that Is so then the same thing happens to Jotunheim but backwards. When someone travels to Jotunheim from Hellheim or Midgard they be travelling to the past since it Is a realm in which time passes slower and thus is behind in time. Another mechanic that Is implemented in the game Is the spacial mechanic in which all the realms are imposed spacially one on top of another. What I am trying to say is that all realms share the same spacial dimension and it is up to the player to activate each realm using the bifrost at Tyr's temple. So if each realm share the same spacial dimension and what actually changes Is the time dimension that means that in reality each realm Is in fact a period from the same space. Yes Tyr's temple Is in fact a time machine in which you travel to 9 different eons or eras (9 realms of the Iggdrasil tree) of the same location or space. Thanks for reading this comment I would love for you to reply to this comment Kuba and make a video about this theory. I am a fan of your channel. Have a nice day.

Kaptain before the release date you were the only person that still kept me motivated for god of war

[sneakycreakin]

It could be kratos is the one who splinters the world tree by trying to cut it down. We would already have some forshadowing with the first game starting by cutting down a tree. Maybe he does it with the intention of sending everyone spiraling through time to have a better chance at victory.

[GeonusKaikun]

I believe that in the previous timeline, Ragnarok played out exactly as it does in proper Norse mythology, with the one addition that Jormangander was sent back in time and Fay did her time-traveling adventures as well. I believe that Loki and all of his siblings and children existed in the previous timeline, with Fay being his mother, but Kratos was not his father. His parentage changed with the introduction of Kratos in the new timeline.

[slavizat]

“ maybe there were another person who was the first Loki”
Kaptain I think this is not possible because in the first game jormungandr tells mimer that the boy seems familiar wouldn’t that mean that Atreus existed in the first timeline ?

[Zolmu]

If this is true, I would imagine Kratos would feel used like he was being used by the Greek pantheon and would struggle with his rage if he were to find out after all that time has past

[thiagouchiha]

Every time he drops a video I get 1000 times more excited

[ihsanamiruddin]

You said that all of the pantheon live under one world right? Imagine this, you are on the war with the norse god, but on the first battle, the outcome was not in your fave. But then you heard a marked warrior on the other side of the world take down the greek gods. So now you found the one thing that can turn the tides of the war. Changing the outcome and control. Even when your life was taken, the outcome can change. Odin on the other hand wants to control the outcome also. But did not know about Kratos, Odin was trying to control the outcome of Ragnarok but did not manage to find Kratos sooner than Faye. So it is a big loss for Odin.

Man I need more vids I ain’t gonna lie

Hey Kuba, new theory!

When we meet Sindri for the first time, look after his intro is complete. There are two trolls standing, made of stone. But they do not attck obviously. Same encounter is after opening the door to the black breath after we fight the Oger for the first time. There is a Troll made of Stone.
I think someone from the Future has came back to fight them because when we go to see the mountain again after Atreus knows that he is a God, we see that all the trolls have been broken and disappeared. I think that "someone" who also blew the horn, fought the stone trolls. Oh and I think these trolls are from Jötunheim or Svartalfheim, as they are made of stone, but I could be wrong man. Have a great day yall

[blengdiabloed]

I still don't think this Fenrir would be an enemy. at best, he'd be giving the same buff Jormugandr gave to Kratos on the Leviathan Axe.

[BalrogIsCool]

What if there will be 2 Jörmungandrs? Thor fights the younger one from this timeline where he sends it back in time and then the older one from the previous timeline fights Thor in which they kill each other as in the mythology? That would create a repeating loop of events that perhaps could change only now when Kratos gets involved

[evgenyermakov]

Maybe, the unexpected Faye's death in this timeline means her return to the first timeline

[PrabhSandhu.]

God of War Ragnarök is going to be absolutely Crazy & Epic! GOTY! 🔥❄⚡🐐

[connorg]

Love the Theory Kaptain. Although, I was under the impression Fimbulwinter occurred 100 years earlier due to Kratos' arrival as Magni, Modi and Buldur played big parts of Ragnarok. However, Kratos came in their timeline and killed them before Ragnarok and I do hope the game picks up on this, especially when they didn't come back to life

[ABG_SPARTAN]

Great video Kuba, haven’t thought of these moments from the novel in a while, it ties in nicely to the cg trailer

[Mark-zohs]

I feel like with the branch timeline logic, this theory would actually have a problem with the snake travelling back in time. Faye was still in the original timeline when the snake was sent back and created a branch timeline. Meaning that Faye went back in time later compared to the snake and thus would have created a second branch timeline. The snake cannot be in this second timeline since he was sent into the first branch timeline.

I don't know if this makes sense. Time travel hurts my brain.

[martinklein]

There is so many clues around this game given by God od War creators and I must say I kind of don't like myself for not being smart enough to read and understand these clues. I feel like they do these clues for Kaptain Kuba and other people who really dig deep and process these information :D

[tfarlopzzz]

I find it very interesting that all the mythology that Mimir talks about, he talks as if it's already happened. Which Greek and Norse mythology do themselves when telling stories from their Ancient past. Notice it a lot with GoW and one of my first clues to time travel.

[saigow]

Your theory is good as always!!! Anyways, this game is a masterpiece
