Reason of Atreus stuck in T-Pose:
In God of War, Atreus got stuck at T-pose for our wrongdoing. The only reason for Atreus being stuck in T-pose is using the Trainer/ Cheat Program.
To be more specific, if we use One Hit kill in the Trainer Program, the enemy gets wiped out after being hit in an instant, but Atreus’s Program gets confused & gets hit by another engaging enemy losing his health & getting stuck in the T-pose.
The enemy can’t kill Atreus throughout the story. He loses his health using the One-Hit Kill trainer, making him do the abnormalities. So, now you know what went wrong with Atreus, which is our fault.
