10 Most Beloved Video Game NPCs Of The Decade
8. Mimir (God Of War)
The wisest and most humble of the Nordic Gods, Mimir’s appearance in the God of War reboot makes what was already a masterpiece that little bit more special.
After meeting him at the beginning of chapter 4, you soon sever him from his torturous punishment bestowed upon him by the mighty Odin and bring him along on your perilous journey to Jötunheim.
Mimir serves not only as an extra set of eyes on the battlefield but as a character to add extra depth and history to the already stunning world you are exploring.
It would have been easy for Mimir to be just a tool for exposition but his contribution to the game goes well beyond this in the most fascinating way possible.
Soon his musings and humour become the highlight of your long journey, other than smashing things with an axe of course.
