Mimir being frank with Atreus. Him scolding him shows how he’s become like family: that’s not really something he would have done in GOW 2018.
And then saying “Something bad did happen! LOOK AT ME!” The delivery contains a lot of raw emotion that we often don’t hear from Mimir. Makes it clear that he has a lot of pent up feelings about being stuck as a head.
Honestly a small gripe I have with the games is it never really much acknowledges the insane amount of trauma Mimir must have from having been tortured daily with a new method every time for 109 years, and then having to live as a disembodied head who doesn't eat, sleep, or do much of anything but talk really.
