There is never any indication that Odin is denying other Aesir of recognition and faith, as they are all widely recognized and worshipped gods with their own stories and legends.

There is never any indication that Odin is denying other Aesir of recognition and faith, as they are all widely recognized and worshipped gods with their own stories, legends and \\\'\\\'temples\\\'\\\'. Tyr\\\'s Temple being a regularly visited location should easily demonstrate that the idea that none of the Aesir are worshipped besides Odin is just flat out wrong.

Garm is an AnimalisticAbomination that can chew through the fabric of reality itself, something that is implied to be capable of far more damage than merely opening pathways (\

Garm is an AnimalisticAbomination that can chew through the fabric of reality itself, something that is implied to be capable of far more damage than merely opening pathways (\\\"Hel walkers are only the beginning\\\").
Thor hits Jormangandr so damn hard it \\\'\\\'shatters Yggdrasil and breaks time and space\\\'\\\', plowing him from Asgard in the present all the way to Midgard in the far past.
Odin is explicitly stated by developer notes to be the most powerful adversary Kratos has ever fought, explicitly stronger than anyone in the Greek Pantheon.

Mimir\\\'s curiousity about the power of the Greek Gods is presented more as an explanation for Kratos\\\'s latest BagOfSpilling, as he says he heard that the Greek Gods had all sorts of powers and wonders asks if Kratos could conjure some of them. To which Kratos replies that he\\\'s tried before, but he can\\\'t. Atreus then talks about how Freya explained that magic is bound to the earth, so when Greece fell so did its native magic.

It brings forward this idea that the Greek Gods were more powerful than the Norse ones, and that this is because Odin is monopolising all worship in the realms
This idea has even begun to spread to other trope entries, such as Thor\'s ExtremeDoormat trope, where it now states that everyone sees Thor as a mere extension of Odin and therefore all the of their faith goes to Odin instead of Thor

Thor \'\'isnt\'\' widely seen as a mere extension of Odin, in fact the common perception of him that most have, and the one Mimir expounds on, is that his nature as a destructive slayer of giants is entirely is all him
He \'\'does\'\' have reverent followers, as shown by depictions honoring him, and that time he showed up in the home of one of his worshippers and got drunk

There are plenty of beings that are absolutely presented as at least comparable in power to the Greek Gods
Laufey and Thor tore apart an entire inhabited valley just as collateral damage when they fought each other
Ragnarok destroys the entire realm of Asgard, and Freyr is capable of actually \'\'holding him back\'\' for bit
