* During his and Thor's meeting with Kratos and Atreus, Odin correctly guesses that the pair are hiding Mimir somewhere in the house. When Mimir pipes up and Atrues goes to bring him out, Odin gives a little smirk and gestures as if to say "''See? Told ya so.''"

* During the favor "Song of the Sands" , Atreus names the trapped Hafgufa "Lúnch", after remembering Durlin's pet named "Dìnner". Much to Mimir's intense displeasure.
-->'''Mimir:''' Oh boy... while I appreciate the attempt at humour, [[LamePunReaction that, little brother, is truly awful wordplay. Embarrassing, really]].

** In the previous game, Baldur was ExpectingSomeoneTaller when he met Kratos as he believed he was a giant. When meeting Thor, one can guess Baldur was basing his expectations on him, who is half giant and towers over Kratos.

** Thor’s insistence on seeing the "God of War" that Kratos was is amusing as it’s like he is a hardcore player demanding to play the "Give Me God Of War" difficulty of the game.

** In the post-game, you can actually ''find'' this coin, to see Skjöldr found it first... and is currently trying and failing to yank it out, because Kratos threw the damn thing ''so hard'' that even after flying straight across several different Realms it ''still'' embedded itself into a huge rock.
* Following Odin and Thor’s visit, the pause menu has Kratos hanging an appropriate [[LampshadeHanging lampshade]] over the Aesir [[RunningGag making a habit of waddling up to his door and fighting him]]:

* In general, the way Odin speaks, especially in contrast to his Greek counterpart Zeus. Zeus was bombastic, a LargeHam whose British accent seems ready to echo at a moment's notice. Odin, played by Creator/RichardSchiff... sounds like a sleazy American politician or corporate executive. Meanwhile, Thor is loud, crass, and foul-mouthed, in contrast to Kratos' restrained eloquence. The overall effect makes the Aesir seem decidedly more [[LowerClassLout blue-collar]] than their Greek equivalents.
* Crossing over with Heartwarming, one question asked in the wake of the 2018 game was how Faye and Kratos fell in love at all when she was supposedly so selfless and benevolent and he so gloomy and self centered. This game answers that question: they fell in love because of mutual respect and also because she absolutely ''did not take any of his shit!''

** In one dream/flashback, Kratos grunts in response to Faye sadly noting a freshly-killed wild animal. Faye then says, "[[LampshadeHanging Am I to decipher your grunting?]] Tell me your thoughts." Kratos obliges her.
** Later, both find some fallen trees in the way. Both are strong enough to move them easily, but Faye asks Kratos to deal with the last one with: "Gonna make me pick that one up?" Kratos hoists it up so that Faye can proceed first, and Faye affectionately pats his shoulder and says, "Good boy." And Kratos doesn't react negatively.



** At one point early on in the fight Kratos is [[FissionMailed seemingly killed]], and it cuts to the loading screen... then Thor says that the fight's over when he ''says'' it's over, and [[MagicalDefibrillator zaps Kratos back to life with Mjollnir]]. There's something hilarious about how abrupt it is.
** After their collision ends up destroying Tyr's statue, Thor actually pauses the fight and turns his back to Kratos just to apologize to Tyr for said statue's destruction.
--->'''Thor''': "Sorry about your statue, Tyr... you preachy old stiff!"

* One of the Tasks for Kratos' challenges consists of kicking enemies 20 times. The name for the task? [[Film/ThreeHundred This is not Sparta]].
* When facing Tyr in the arena, he is always waiting on a seat that disappears when he brings out his weapons. Either Valhalla knows he will be there for quite a while and gives him a seat whenever he isn't doing anything else, or Tyr keeps that seat in his inventory alongside his weapons.

* Odin's discussion with Heimdall when Atreus first enters Asgard is kind of hilarious all around. When Heimdall declares Atreus intends to betray Odin, Odin feigns shock and hurtfulness at this "trickery", before bluntly telling Heimdall ''of course'' Atreus is up to something, as why else would he answer the invitation"? Odin calmly acknowledges that Atreus has been given no reason to trust him yet, then bluntly asks Atreus if he was going to try and murder him in cold blood upon the first opportunity. Atreus answers with a ''very small shrug while looking to the side'', as if ''embarrassed'' he was figured out so easily, and Odin, taking that as a "no", looks perfectly pleased and looks to a ''confused'' Heimdall in a very "told you so" manner. He then promptly ''shoos him off'' like a busy parent with an annoying kid; Heimdall, confused and unsure of what even to say at this point, just ''quietly leaves'' as he's told.

** Before Odin shows up, Heimdall tries to rough up Atreus, at which point Thor steps in and tells him to back off. When Heimdall tries to call his bluff and asks how he'd try to stop him, Thor only tells him to look into his eyes and find out for himself. Heimdall ''immediately'' stands down, calling Thor a "sick man". Either Thor can overpower Heimdall's foresight and hurt him, or whatever he imagined was so utterly terrifying that Heimdall wasn't going to take his chances.
