I can probably only speak about my understanding of Odin, but even if I saw the American Odin as coarser, a lesser "version" (like mentioned in your quote) and more of an opportunist than the Old World Odin, the core of the character is still the same. A lack of honour, perhaps, but even the old Norse Odin was not especially nice guy.
What did you think about Shadow and his love of Laura?
