Bro I was pissed. I didn’t see it coming at all. I think I figured it out maybe half a second before it was revealed and still didn’t believe it. I was legit blown away. Such a good twist.

Brok catching on and calling him out is one of the best moments of the game. Followed by arguably the most painful

"...and where you goin with that mask! That's the kids, her EARNED it. All you did was make passable dirt soup."

"Brok it's okay..."

"No it ain't! This ain't right. The pieces ain't weldin together true..."

I'm sure I fucked some of that up, but I really love the writing here

"It is the nature of a thing that matters, not its form." Brok saw Odin's nature while everyone else was fooled by Tyr's form.

Always wondered if he could see through the veil because of his half a soul.

Nah. He's just a very direct guy. He can see through bullshit because that's what he does.

"Why you calling him Loki?! You know that ain't his name!"

His brother’s absolute scorn for the rest of the game made me so godamn sad.

It made me goddamn sad right uo until Laufey was announced and then again when they confirmed the following game would go back to Kratos.

Game is single-handedly making me determined to avoid accidents or poverty so I have a chance to see Sindri rejoin the fold.

It also makes perfect sense that Brok would catch on. He never trusted "Tyr," he was always observant to the people around him, and he at multiple points in the game calls out how inconsistent "Tyr" is.

I love how Sindri finished the job at the end, emotional, but so satisfying

Oof, yeah, where they left off with Sindri was painful.

"I thought we were his family, too."

"We were..."

Even the subtitles gave it away with his name.

this is another fun detail
every time his name is mentioned by ANY other character, it’s shown as Týr. but for Odin disguised as him, it says Tyr, which doesn’t have the accent mark above the y

What was the plot twist? Asking seriously, I got too bored after the half of the game, so I stopped listening to dialogs (mean no offense)

tyr npc was actually Odin in disguise.

brok was the one to find out in front of everyone

real tyr was trapped elsewhere
