Kratos is considered weak in the games because his domain is gone, destroyed when he completed his revenge against Zeus, which means no tribute or worshippers, and he’s also holding back which has been mentioned multiple times, especially in the Thor fight at the beginning of the game. This, combined with the fact that he lacks his tools and magic, makes him significantly less powerful than he once was, and as a result, his strength and abilities are not as prominent as they were in previous games.
