God of War Ragnarok Proves Mimir is He Own Worst Enemy

Character diversity is an essential component of RPG gaming, and developers find creative and perhaps humorous ways to fill up a title’s cast to appeal to a broad audience. Franchises often feed gamers with tales of self-assured characters falling from grace and others who seem unassuming rising to the top since the underdog storyline still reigns supreme in narrating. The God of War franchise exemplifies this dynamic, as players have followed Kratos on his journey to cast down entire pantheons from their lofty positions through the years. With God of War: Ragnarok, journeying through the Nine Realms with Kratos and Atreus on their quest to thwart Odin thrusts Mimir into the spotlight, and the story progression reveals the character gets in his way and can be considered his own worst enemy.
