ancient greece was full of petty intercity squabbling
y'know what's more macho than having sex with a woman? having sex with a man, because that's twice as much man
also for a lot of the time it was a part of the roman empire
i wonder if i could almsot reverse that with the gods (the trope), and have them value all the different races, or at least treat them in the same way that they would treat humans
they also had a very low opinion of women
oh yeah i forgot about that
the greek gods were very human like but exaggerated
like if you got a bunch of hormonal teenagers and gave them ultimate power
see, my cat and my dog don't get a long, but because they are my pets i'm particularily interested (partially for entertainment) in them getting along
they could just view it like that, hahaha
their idea of gods was similar to mortals but actually forces of nature, unlike the benevolent and all powerful christian one
cats and dogs have a language barrier that makes it difficult
lmao
you've suggested that the gods would value all races but i think they would actually play favourites
and their personal relationships with each other would affect how they view the worshippers of other gods
and maybe their playing favorites with races could make a mirror for gods fighting and races fighting
yeah
one important thing with DMing is that you don't wanna make someone feel like every god hates them cuz that's not really something a player could solve
unless it's already defined in their backstory, like if they're a rogue who hates the gods or something because the god hates their race
there's also gods with significantly more chill then others
also some might be hands off about the material plane
????
oh
i ran a session in this same world, but it only lasted one session cause some guy was mean, but they were all chaotic type characters
and i was gonna have chaos "notice" them then start giving them "missions" to start conflicts between the gods
ah god it was gonna be great, too bad
i like the idea of relatively material gods though, they make world politics a lot more interesting and engaging i think
in my head, gods would go to feasts with certain kings they liked
take the discworld approach
the gods go around throwing rocks through atheists' windows
the gods dont have windows
windows are for weather, which is something that only happens to mortals
In a world where gods obviously exist, atheism is praxis
yes
i'd imagine being atheist would be quite hard when gods can literally materialize in front of you and disintegrate your house with a snap, but then again flat earthers and antivaxxers exist so i mean, anythings possible
bloodymindedness is the most powerful force in the univarse
Well like, it's less about not believing that gods exist, and more about believing that gods shouldn't exist
i think that'd be a different term than atheist, haha
antitheist
God is dead and remains dead. Because I killed him with my fists.
oh you've activated my trap card, one sec
sidenote: i am pretty sure cheesecake factory is like... doordashes #2 delivery behind only chipotle
Haha yeah... #2
(not actually, just felt like it when i did doordash)
That's what I taste when I eat there
people are obsessed man
Most of the appeal of cheesecake factory is the decor, isn't it?
Or is it the cheesecake
Were people ordering whole meals?
This world’s equivalent of Square-Enix is a collaboration between orcish and dwarven game developers, initially conceived of as an overture of cultural reconciliation. Opinions regarding the outcome...
it was actually everything
Guys this just happened
it'd usually be a single meal with desert, sometimes two meals with desert
ooh this is a good article it seems
Haha
this is nice 🙂
article?
the post yeah
that's a blog post not an article
yeah oops

Great, I hate horsepower now
MAX horsepower
horsepower is a measure of the average amount of work one horse can do in a day

These guys don't do the Gymbro stereotype any favor
oh this is a classsic post
oh no hang on there's a better way to digest that story
In 2008, some people in a message board spent an entire weekend fighting over how many days are in a week. This is their story. Welcome to Pretty Good, a show about stories that are pretty good.
Written, produced, edited, and narrated by Jon Bois for SB Nation.
The original ...
this is maybe my favorite jon bois video ever which is saying A LOT
17776 contains videos but doesn't count as a video i think
man the mariners series tho.. i think this Just beats it out if only because of the outside shot of jon in his office
There's a person at my gym who goes by the name Clem and I actually struggle to not call them Clemothy, for reasons I don't know

There is an eggman joke to be made here
he's taking over victoria's secret, he's taking over best buy, the news is his, and everyone else can leave
achilles looks like such a bigger loser in the illiad than he does in hades
am i actually missing something from the iliad
like let me get this right, the greeks invade troy because they want to, achilles doesn't wanna fight because agamemnon is a ****, patroclus dies while the people of troy are defending against the siege, and so achilles goes wow, screw the people that were defending the city that we were invading, i'm gonna murder them and desecrate their corpses? why does he not go on a rampage and kill agamemnon and all of the people that forced them into fighting the pointless war?
is it not meant to completely soil the character and show that his reasons for not fighting didn't mean all that much to him, broken down by grief? surely he could still regret his actions, but a hero in this situation thinks they didn't go far enough, and they should've taken actions for the causes they believed in, rather than just purely protesting for them
Those are interesting points! I havn't read the story yet but it's on my list
Greek stories seem like they have a bit of a thing for extra violent murder revenge so it might of been a reflection of what people of the time thought was a fulfilling ending
@meager lantern
That's why most modern depictions puts Troy as the Sympathetic party
what do you mean by sympathetic party?
As the victims of some overzealous warring nation
i mean, it does make achilles an interesting character, that story represents one of humanity, but it's just weird that it seems like the pop interpretation of him is of a hero
Achilles and Patroclus at face value were very bad people
It''s just they embodied the values people of the time considered good
But three thousand years later and values have shifted
maybe it's particularily annoying to me because achilles initial values of protest are actually very respectable to me and not often seen
it's probably also annoying because i mean, after achilles kills hector and defiles his corpse, he then goes back to... being a traditionally "good"? character and giving his body to priam?
It's funny
i think different values (back then) is a much more likely answer than he was supposed to be a story of humanity, someone with flaws
In the Troy film despite making Achilles a clearly honorable guy he still comes worse than the Troyans
i haven't watched the movie, is it good?
It's okay
Not mind-blowing but t he acting is solid and the plot old as it is holds up
It's almost completely devoid of divinity tho
Yeah
It's a completely human conflict
The Gods are barely referenced and don't influence the plot
where do we send questions for supergiant?
Supergiant Games is an independent game developer in San Francisco, California. We created the games Bastion, Transistor, and Pyre.
if the story of the iliad was based on a real war then it's likely events were simplified for memorization so that the story could be shared
so a lot of nuance is based in speculation and careful translation
the story of ancient greek heroes are also very careful to point out their fatal flaws and in the case of achilles it was his pride
also worth noting that p much all our "knowledge" of greek mythology got bottlenecked real bad at one point
yes
Guys, let me go mega off-topic, but tech related. Does anyone know how to turn Xbox Bluetooth Controller off without removing batteries? Central button keeps twinkling when I pair off, but I doesn't seem to ever turn off.
does it just go into like a resting mode?
I personally find hilarious how Plato Hypothesized about Achilles and Patroclus relationship
For him, That was ancient history too
does it just go into like a resting mode?
@iron kestrel actually, idk. Xbox's symbol just keeps blinking forever haha
I think it's looking for something to pair, but I can't shut it down
are the batteries accessible? b/c that's always been how u shut off a wireless xbox controller
but when I take batteries off and put them again, that blinking stops
Yes, they are.
well, that or via the console's home menu
problem is, I'm on PC
then yeah just pop the battery
idk if anyone from supergiant games will read this but thank you so much for making Hades. Going through difficult times (like many other people) and playing this little game every once in a while feels like I’m seeing light at the end of a tunnel.
More people in hell.
Shows Athena.
🤔
I mean, Hard Drive is satire to begin with but... yeah
and the only white man we see eternally damned for his sins is Sisyphus
???????????????????????????????????
the human mortals we see "damned for their sins" are
achilles - white
patroclus - black
theseus - tanned white (maybe mediterranean?)
orpheus - white
sisyphus - white
🤔
the hard times is satire
and even then, sisyphus is the only one there with an actual eternal punishment
i didn't get far enough into it
anyways, i came here to give a follow up to my achilles comments from .... yesterday
i was wrong, you can actually explain all of achilles actions if pride is his main motivation
he didn't protest because he didn't think the war was just, even though he may have said that, he protested because fighting for a man who steals your prizes is not a prideful thing to do
he didn't kill hector because he thought that hector was at fault for patroclus' death, he killed hector because in terms of pride, the one who makes the final blow is the only one that matters (especially considering what a war focused character achilles is, he'd likely think this)
he didn't return hector's body back to priam because he had a change of heart, he returned the body back to priam because priam appealed to his sense of pride (got on his knees, etc.)
he did kill hector in a grief filled rage over patroclus' death though
right, but there's still a decision even in grief filled rage, where you lash out at the one who you think is at fault for what you're grieving
which logically should be agamemnon or the greek king (blanking on name), but instead he takes it out on hector
achilles' hubris as his downfall is where he refused to fight to spite agamemnon because he stole his "war prizes" the fall comes when he loses patroclus
like after patroclus dies it's not longer a pride thing
it's a madness brought on from greif
grief*
it depends how you view him returning hector's body to priam
because if achilles is truly a character gone mad, i think you can personify that by not giving his body back
I think that's supposed to be an appeal to what is left of his better nature
one grieving man to another
yeah, but it still shows that his actions are motivated, right
his actions were motivated by grief and revenge for patroclus not for glory or for the greeks
hypothetically, if it's just a story about someone who was too stubborn and prideful for his own good, then is pushed over the edge like that, why return his humanity by "doing the right thing" with priam? wouldn't you want to further personify that by showing how "over the edge" he really is?
because ultimately achilles is still a hero by ancient greek standards
to the ancient greeks heroes were lauded for their glorious deeds
they were still human though
and achilles' tragedy is that his pride lost the most important thing to him
did you read the whole thing yesterday, out of curiosity
I read it years ago for school
nono what i said yesterday i mean
which part are you refering to
my initial gripe is that i thought achilles was supposed to be a hero character, and a heroic character would've killed agamemnon, not hector
no because the greeks won't turn on eachother
well then it comes to why achilles isn't fighting though, is it to protest? or is it because he can't fight when he has been disrespected?
ok so
i think either answer is applicable, i'm not asking for an explanation, just a perspective
by agamemnon saying "you've taken too many prizes" and then taking Breisis away from Achilles' he dishonored him
and since achilles was prophecied to end the war he was bascially carrying the whole fight on his shoulders
he refused to fight to spite agamemnon for slighting him
and so the greeks began to face a series of losses to the point that the trojans were able to break their lines and start burning their ships
right, so how is him not fighting already turning on the greeks is my point
in a sense, by not fighting, he's making a statement that his morals (whether that be purely pride) are more important than winning the war
but because he killed hector, it's an action that to me shows that those morals were only applicable because he hadn't lost anything important to him yet
I don't know if morals is the right word to use
when i say morals, all i mean is where his thought process for making decisions comes from
"anything for pride" is a moral system, it's not a very good one, but it still is one in a sense
I don't think I understand what point you're trying to make
i'm saying that all of achilles' actions are actually relatively consistent if you think all of his decisions are made on the basis of pride
through patroclus' death and all
though i would add that because that is my interpretation, achilles is by no means a "hero"
by modern standards achilles is not a hero no
but that depends on the perspective of the story
why does the perspective matter?
because morality is relative
can you be more specific
the hero of the story depends on the perspective you're looking at
from troy's side of things achilles is not the hero
hector is the tragic fallen hero
from the greeks perspective achilles is the tragic fallen hero
i don't think the perspective changes it
but it does
these storie aren't written in academic vacuums
they're written from human perspectives
and the values that were held at the time
if you want to look at it from the perspective of someone today, vs someone from when the story was written, i agree with you
but looking at it by modern standards, telling the story through the greeks vs telling it through the trojans should not change your analysis of whether or not he is a good character
your actions aren't morally justifiable just because you're the main character of a story, that's ridiculous
by good character do you mean good person or well developed character in a literary sense
good person
I wouldn't say he's good I'd say he's human
The truth is that at the end of the day, humans have changed so much socially in 3k years that the morality of men of antiquity is basically alien to us
yeah
sort of, but i still think there's ambuity
We can say they were horrible people
Some even for their time
But romantizicing them is fine, the bodies are already buried enough
i guess concisely that's
- is he a (morally consistent) character who acts purely off pride
and then, if he is, is he meant to be a hero (because people at the time had different values)? - is he a morally upstanding character who has dark moments
- do the intentions of his actions not matter, and it's more just about the sadness of what happens to him
idk if there's more
achilles is meant to be a hero because of his battle prowess more than anything, he was not morally upstanding even by greek standards because he committed war crimes by descrating hector's body, the intentions and sadness are very interlinked but mostly it's about actions rather than intentions
There is also the 'Raze a civilization to the ground' thing
Well, Technically not to the ground as Troy kinda still exists today
they're excavating a site that they think might be the troy of the iliad but it had a different name
They don't think, they are almost certainly sure
but here's the thing, no matter what is his intentions is, a hero were not defined by altruistic actions, but rather the deeds and achievement of them, the pride and arrogance or self benefits that the hero gained by the deed can be defined as its flaws that they need to overcome, but the deeds itself defines one's heroism
I busted my right wrist like 3 years ago playing rhythm games so I've been extra careful ever since, but guess who recently busted their left hand playing Hades ;u;
Oh nooo how did that happen
2 much dashing
I know what the issue is and it IS fixable though I don't particularly plan on getting surgery on it any time soon
Looks like I might just be prone to it so oh well
that's not good
Thats a shame i wonder if there are more ergonomic controllers you can switch too
get better soon
Oh I was on keyboard
if there are more wrist-friendly controllers out there...
this one isn't as bad since it doesn't hurt, it just makes my fingers go numb so while still bad its manageable lol
Oh! In that case they have special ergonomic gaming mice that have extra buttons on them if you haven't already looked into those
Yeee I gotta be extra careful since I'm a game artist too so I kinda need my hands ^-^'
well i hope you feel better soon lilac!! i personally use a mouse with extra buttons and i love it for bastion
Yeee I've got a good mouse
Yeah hope you heal up soon i'm an artist too so i know how important wrist health is
But yee I should probably invest in an ergonomic keyboard
was it a mechanical keyboard?
Please pardon the random message.
Does anyone have some experience editing voice (or know someone who does)?
I've got a friend making a Hades-art-style fanart, and I'm trying to voice act a line for it.
Been messing around with it in Audacity. Lowered the pitch, added a bit of echo, but there's a certain effect to the Gods' voices in the game that I can't quite emulate or name.
It's sorta like a pre-echo, where some sounds (like "h" and "a") sound like they're echoing just before/as the character speaks it.
i heard that google has some kind of tts device that can use custom voices, but i couldn't figure it out..
goodness, there are lots of neural networks, that can make people look like someone else and sing karaoke, but devices that can mimic another people's voices are still fictional since last century
yes
I think training a model to speak for one box's worth of dialogue for a character not in the game might be a bit overkill 😅
But thanks
kaching, next business idea right here
side note, but thinking of starting a vtuber twitch channel bc a virtual avatar seems like a good way of protecting my privacy while streaming my fave games
that's exactly why I want one for streaming. that plus they're cute and have the potential to look cursed
https://youtu.be/aveKu6MzvEk the stuff I do for work
what if idk, Charon's voice was the choir from gangsters paradise?
@dry stratus ya, partly another reason why i'm considering this route! iirc, there is a bunch of software out there to create these avatars even with no modeling exp these days!
i was considering commissioning one in the future! the software itself is interesting too
would imagine that voice modification would be part of the whole privacy thing too
Mike Tyson says Trans Rights
ok, cool
that video has some pretty strong language in it so unfortunately it has to be deleted
ok
Apologies @blissful charm

UNderstandable that the happy halloween from the Underworld has been a bit early, since they do not have ways to check the time :v
bro it's 7:48 wdym
Bro its the 29th
Fun fact: this server has more people than Lichtenstein
Fun Fact: You can rent Lichtenstein
what
You pay the government/tourism board to rent the country to do something
Example: Microsoft rented it to transform it in the world of Halo during a day to promotionate HALO 4
huh, thats pretty neat
Neater, all citizens get a cut
wow
Heyo
Hey
Anybody an idea when they ship the LE Vynyl?
if you're talking the Hades LE Vinyl. Early next year as stated on the store page @bronze pewter
there's no new info in regards to that afaik
@hexed hollow was talking about the Songs of Supergiant Games LE. any news regarding that? Wasn't able to catch the Hades LE though 
ahh, your best bet is to email supergiant directly through either the 'contact us' page on the Supergiant website or through the 'info@supergiantgames.com' email adrress
Thanks didn't want to bother them but probably a good idea. 
it's fine, Caitlin is working through the emails (during work hours) since she got back from vacation not long ago
hi i have problem. my game crashing after launch.
mcrib returning december 2nd
happy halloween y’all!
hey guys i really wanted to know the backround solo bass guitar music of hades
does anyone know ?
Hi, I stopped playing the game for a while and now that I'm playing the game again all my account data has been erased, is it some bug or is there a season reset or something?
@ivory ruin are you talking about Hades?
If so have a look in #h1-tech-fixes and if nothing there helps, make a post about it in #h1-tech-support as this is the off-topic section of the discord
oh sorry, I don't really know how this group works, thanks
anyone watching any good movies for halloween? im watching spooky hallow
twitches 1 and 2
I watched moonwalker , seemed like a good idea

what you're thinking of is a hypothesis
dude just drop it
what why
because bashing someone's religion isn't cool
I'm not bashing anyone's religion
you...you literally said you find it weird people believe in the greek gods
well obviously its weird
that's called bashing someone's religion
its not exactly a normal thing anymore
normal is relative
ordinary.

nah he's fine @hasty brook we're just discussing, he hasn't bashed anyone's religion
its the same information you'd read in an article but just in the form of a video instead of reading
lol
dude is bashing it though. he's calling someone's religion abnormal
:/ don't ping me again I'm done with this discussion
minuet how many people do you think believe in greek religion today
its a lot less than you think
I have a degree in Electrical Engineering man I dont need to watch a vid explaining those definitions 😛
but nvm you were right tho i mxied those up
im a lil stoned
ah ok
Even though Greece is a predominately Christian Orthodox country, there are some people in this country who still believe in the 12 Gods of mount Olympus, deriving from Greek Mythology. According to unofficial sources they amount to a couple of hundreds and present themselves ...
yeah I dont get why you think it's strange that people practice this
hey just backreading a bit, please be mindful of others in the channel! if someone feels youre being harsh on a religion etc pls be aware of that.
im not. I don't care if people believe in any religion
it doesnt matter to me. but it is in fact an unordinary thing. so unordinary that people did a documentary on it because its interesting
yeah np Kam
alright as long as youre all good in here! have a goodnight
you too!
it doesnt matter to me. but it is in fact an unordinary thing. so unordinary that people did a documentary on it because its interesting
@balmy meadow yeah it is certainly unordinary for sure but saying it's weird is kinda...weird! i'm not having a go at you, just find it funny you'd say that
yo I was gonna watch something different for Halloween but I reverted back to the x-files anyway
because we have science now.
also thought it was funny you said this too
well theres a difference between just believing in the big bang or not vs believing that the earth is a person
would love to hear if anyone else is watching something that isn't jennifer's body or the craft because those are obvious answers

@dry stratus i just binged Blood of Zeus on netflix. it's pretty alright. good timing cause I just started hades last week
queen's gambit on netflix is also pretty good so far
Like, most christians don't believe the earth is flat, though the bible references "the four corners of the earth". So it makes sense a lot of them say that that's either a metaphor, a translation error, or they say that the bible isn't perfect and was a sign from the times.
I feel like in order to believe in greek religion, you'd have to believe the earth is the only planet and that space doesn't exist, and the reason for the sky existing being basically a reflection of the ocean is all wrong
😔 ngl I'm not terribly interested in either series, but I'm glad you enjoyed them!!
though I also highly doubt there is anyone actually here who believes in hellenism
well theres a difference between just believing in the big bang or not vs believing that the earth is a person
@balmy meadow yes that is a true statement. but like you kinda cant compare modern scientific theory vs a really weirdly phrased summary of an ancient religion
😔 ngl I'm not terribly interested in either series, but I'm glad you enjoyed them!!
@dry stratus yeah blood of zeus kinda bored me tbh, it was alright
idk that its weirdly phrased. that is an aspect of their religion
what kind of stuff do you like to watch
☹️ oh that's not good at all
yeah it is pretty poorly described sorry lol
thats their creation myth
I mean I dont know if you're referring to a specific story or whatever, so if you are then maybe link it so I can get on the same page
well atm I am watching the x-files and I do believe the next series I tackle may well be twin peaks. or the twilight zone
I mean, sure there's a lot more to it and its summarized, but thats pretty much the jist of it
well atm I am watching the x-files and I do believe the next series I tackle may well be twin peaks. or the twilight zone
@dry stratus you have the exact same taste as some of my best friends but these are all shows i missed or didnt get into
just talking about gaia
idk maybe buffy if you want to rewatch something
I mean, sure there's a lot more to it and its summarized, but thats pretty much the jist of it
@balmy meadow it really isn't lol
🥳 honestly spoopy isn't my fave but here I am huh! example: I tried watching the first ep of xena but it was a little corny
what am I missing then?
but its part of it
yes that is a correct statement technically
If they said they didnt believe in that part, sure that makes more sense
wait do you mean ancient greeks or that video you linked?
I haven't watched that video in a while but I mean people who believe in it today yeah
oh
well I didnt watch it and even if i did i couldnt answer you man
i thought you were calling out the ancient greeks for being weird lol
🥳 honestly spoopy isn't my fave but here I am huh! example: I tried watching the first ep of xena but it was a little corny
@dry stratus yeah 90s stuff doesnt age well, so unless you saw it first time around imo it's pretty hard to get into
oh nah I moved on from that. it makes more sense for ancient greeks to believe in it because of how little they knew of science and the outside world
battlestar galactica?
ohhhh battlestar galactica
they knew a hella lot about science and maths tho
BSG is one of the few shows thats almost as good rewatching as the first time imo
for some reason I wanted to watch battlestar. im not sure why now. i love sci-fi, but know little about it
you havent seen it?!
oh man im jealous 🙂
eh, yeah maybe somewhere at the time. but I'm sure it would take a lot to get a lot of already religious people to believe in space and other planets and such
LOL is it not good? pretty sure an ex-friend of mine had a suit of armour from the show propped up in their house
idk man I think you're trying to put modern mindsets onto ancient people and it's causing confusing
no bsg is amazing
top tier show
👍 ive heard and that's about all I know about it!!
yea defo stick it on the list 🙂
my cat is sleeping on my ankles which is very sweet but it's starting to hurt and im trapped
Hey so what's the best place to talk about art? I'm not looking to self promote just art talk in general
What kind of art do you wanna talk about?
I think here would be the best place for that tbh
You don't have to
The companies can do it why can't i >:c
But it's never to early to celebrate to be fair
Lmao I gotta make one as well then
I've had this since mid october
Finally i put my teacher's lessons on photoshop at good use
Hmm i should make a birthday one for March...
Maybe with roman laurel because i was born the 15th
I wanted to go to a convention dressed as a cheap excuse for Julius Caesar with a birthday cap and the stabs
Then Rapunzel's kingdom arrived
🥺 🥺
I am back
Hi Back, I'm Albino
Heck
AYYY
Cute
i know what I want for christmas
hmmmmmm
hey thats not keeping it clean, guys
@strange cedar dw now is silly month and then is christmas month. I don't get it but my brother already has a moustache now instead of growing it throughout movember. So like, is he going to gradually shorten it until it's gone by the end of the month?
Whiteness is a social construct that was forged as a result of contact with non-Europeans. There is a book called Our Savage Neighbors: How Indian War Transformed Early Ameirca, by Historian Peter Silver. In it, there is a discussion of how Europeans in Pennsylvania, with a wide range of religious and national backgrounds, only came together as a "white" people, in response to the terrifying methods in which natives waged war. Whiteness in this case, was nothing but a means to bring people of European descent together in opposition to Natives. And this identity has been used as a weapon against "undesirable" people for some time ex: Africans, Asians, and even Europeans like the Irish.
If whiteness was always truly about some sort of pan-European identity, why were Irish or Italian people excluded from whiteness until the 20th century? Whiteness has always been about controlling who is part of the in-group, and who is part of the other. Whiteness has always Dismantling whiteness is going to have to be a big part of tackling racism

also, what's so special about november? is it a month people supposed to stop shaving or something?
also, now i'm thinking about great sales before Christmas.. black fridays and stuff.. idk how that would be done now during quarantine
It's no pasta november lmao
||yeah i know which one it is||
So, what's the flagellant lore?
Oh dear
lets keep it clean, please
The moustache thing is a pun ("movember") and tends to come in the form of "I'll grow a moustache for charity throughout November, collecting donations at [link]"
It's a thing in the UK, not sure how much in the US
that's cute
It's a thing in Aus as welI ^ _ ^

hello bois i want to ask something
I want to sell my hades collection card but there is not any price or something
hey, where can I report a bug in Hades? I can't find any direct option for it
if you're on pc, you can hit f10 for an in-game bug reporter
not sure if there's one for switch though
I'm on pc, thanks a lot :)
Hello, just joined this place since I needed a place to talk about Hades with some fellow players
thinking about existing? just dont
Any of the hades related channels @formal bronze as this is the off topic section of the discord

Reminder Biden began campaigning in April 2019
And he was a late comer
Why the heck your elections down there take so much?
i thought it'll be trump vs bernie but then comes biden
serious question
have been there anything told about Biden by Simpsons?
they've predicted Trump
😂😂😂 i'm in season 17, nothing so far
(sound of silence intensifies)
The simpsons are also infamous to either go to fast on the pop-culture curve or too slow

For Hades? @celest shadow
If so best off asking in one the hades specific channels as this is the off topic section of the discord
I will delete thw comments so it won't bother you
It begins
im not looking until either tomorrow morning or i start hearing gunshots
whichever comes first
The only numbers that matter are the final count... watching anything else is a painful waste of time. I'm saying that not to convince you, but to convince myself
||i remain unconvinced that the actual numbers matter at all, given the GOP deathgrip on the courts||
Also it goes state by state so obviously the results are skewed at first
Oh man, I am SO excited to be here tbh lol. Where should I even begin? Hades just became one of my faves

A second level?!
if u were on level one? sure
Nice Nice, moving fast
every time i also hear that Hypnos line: "Welcome to the House of Hades, where death is our business!"
Hope you all are doing good

But, yes, NIN is effing great.
Year Zero creeped me out as a kid.
if anyone has any nin recs lmk because my two friends have been wanting me to get into them for some time
Definitely Year Zero. Downward Spiral is... destructive and defines a lot of NIN.
Instrumentally, Quake soundtrack is GREAT.

So in the self-promotion channel. Are we allowed to share more than just our social media accounts? Cause I do voice over and I was wondering if I'd be okay to share some of my work when I appear in new fan or professional works from time to time.
Sure!!
I need ask about the hades game
Best place to ask is #h1-discussion @mellow gale as this is the off-topic section of the discord
guess. who. finally. got his new computer???
no more barbecued hardware for 1 hour of hades

@magic sentinel ESPECIALLY with the yelp
So how do I send pics?
@faint ledge I don't think we're allowed to in this channel??
Hmmm
ya, gobba link em from a hosting site
Oh bummer
(note: other discord servers technically work)
I just bought the game any tips I should know
Ahh thank you
i dont see the folder Saved games
maybe should ask in #h1-tech-support
best off posting that in #h1-discussion @quasi depot
as this is the off-topic section of the discord
ah my bad
for??
i dont know where to ask this but yall im still pretty new to discord so what in the world is bot commands ... im like... Huh. is that how people get the different color names
(i know i sound like a ding dong but really i dont know
)
They're cosmetic and change your username color and also add information to your "profile"
Click my icon and you can see my roles 🙂
Type ?rank before what you want to add. There is a pinned message in that channel. c:
just imagine these bot as infernal watchers that watch your every action in this server
or just creepy lurkers
oh thanks guys! i tried it just now 
didn't even notice you could get roles lol
When are they gonna Add 5120x1440p in the game?
I just don't know what to do
@faint panther You have reached the customer support, how may help you?
when in doubt steal from religion
turns out this is working for me better than i thought
for dnd world building
What's up Vinnin?
Hey guys, I'm looking for a chill game to play in between Hades sessions which break both my mental condition and arms. Any SGG game fitting that description ?
Think you're describing all of them

Pyre!
Very beuatiful, very relaxing but still an engaging story and ost
Although you'll have to read a fair bit
reading is ok, I really like it
Yeah then go for Pyre! 💗
Thanks !
how does pyre work?
how close is it to transistor in terms of gameplay?
Oh! Mhhhh...
is it bastion-y (beat em up) or transistor-y(turns and that kinda of stuff)
I guess it's somewhat similar in some aspects
Ofc there is no timestop or something, but there is some sort of "your turn, my turn"
The gameplay is a little like fantasy basketball you know?
Ofc there is no timestop or something, but there is some sort of "your turn, my turn"
like the old final fantasy games?
You have to score points and when you score, you have a small disadvantage, so you'll have to be somewhat more defensive
No it's not turn based or anything like that
Just sometimes it's your turn to strike and sometimes it's theirs
It's really fun actually!
hmmm, need to try it out myself
If you don't mind reading stuffs, it's definitely worth a try!
My second favourite sgg game after hades
Transistor being a close third though
I have a lot of friends who prefer lot of story in a game
Well it's about you though! 
ofc
thats why I was asking about it
I've seen that SGGames had a place for me
in each of their game, with Bastion beat em up, transistor's turn based and aesthetics, and also hades fun "dating-sim"
althought that isn't why I like hades
never played a rougelite, would love to
Hades is one of the best ones out there!
And it really isn't that much of a dating sim
I guess that aspect is just very popular with the community
And it really isn't that much of a dating sim
@hallow escarp Hey, there was this event in league of legends back awhile ago, and it looked like a dating sim with one of the characters saying "take off your clothes!"
Craziest thing i've ever seen
Spirit blossom?
yep
ofc it was fun
I mean it was just fun optional stuff if you had some free time on your hands
oh we've had trust me
It has very well written chars and their interactions are much niceness
one of the guys I watch on youtube alot (Skooch) have talked about the game
Then go for it! 🎉
His channel is awesome, would recommend to watch (Although his content have been more diverse than before, he was strictly just do LoL content before)
It's a very good first rogue lite and it does have some dating sim elements
I am an overworked boi. remember to take rests, and hydrate
Anyone playing Part time UFO? I have a question.
weak in terms of what?
probably a good topic for #h1-builds-and-combat or #h1-discussion
@delicate summit ive found pyre gameplay to be wholly unique. The story is also so awesome that it inspired me to pick up world building for dnd... Again
100% recommend
Can go lowest difficulty too for even more chill story experience
aaaaaah what language to use for dragons in dnd?
Uwuspeak
blursed
that flipping nom
(i definitely dont rewrite all my swears cos i half forget i cant use them here)
Nom: Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 19 (2d10 + 8) piercing damage plus 7 (2d6) fire damage.
okaaay i need about 51 farming towns around the size of 600 square kms to feed a country of 2.2m
naw
i hope some peeps join my sever look in the self promotions tab
@unreal briar what's the server about?
I wonder if SuperGiant employees play games, just like us
@quasi depot its about sevral things
@quasi depot all the vc's and tc's text channels and voice channels are the games i play that i hope people like\
I wonder if SuperGiant employees play games, just like us
@vernal harbor lol, they do
but... they're very busy?
rest is also important, chile
If you look on their descriptions on their site they each list their favourite games
wdym, game devs arent real humans
yea good job with that expired link
Complain about the pacing of this election if you want, but they gotta do it like this or else it will catch up to the manga

the thing i like in american voting, is there is always an intrigue.. you can't tell how it will all end, you can make bets, you can cheer, etc
all my country was watching carefully, worrying..
our elections are boring, mostly just they ask "Do you mind if current president will stay for another term?" and people have two options, "Yes, i don't mind" or "No, i don't mind"
well at least you got consistency with that system
that's what they put as a main value.. stability
I'm just so relieved to have a decent, kind, respectable human being back in charge of our country. It's been a traumatic four years.
Nice art work bob ross
perfect loaf achieved

Ping me if you need tutor Hornet OwO
awww thankkk
how does one obtain image perms?
Probably by being a mod
#h1-victory-boasting allows pictures and so does #fan-works
you can use imgur for example to ulpoad your image there and then paste the link here
Ok, i know, this is unrelated question, but i have to ask, idk if it belongs somewhere else
how do people find artists who are open for commissions? I've looked for someone involved into SG fandom, but either they don't do that at all, or currently closed
I'd ask in #fan-works but I think deviant art is still popular for finding artists who do commisions
i'm not sure that kind of questions are allowed there
even discussions are limited
well, okay.. point is, my friend's birthday is in February, and i'm not an artist, and don't want to screw it up again like last times..
so have to worry in advance
I don't think it's any more offensive to spend a sentence requesting a person who does commisions there than it is in general discussion. I don't think a mod is going to come down on you for one line
But you could still check on deviant art and search supergiant or hades game
Maybe even instagram
Oof, really? Where, china?
russia.. not the whole site, just image resource.. so i can browse, but can't see what's there
someone from the bureau found out that there is some kind of forbidden content, dunno, about terrorism or suicide, idk.. and couldn't find a way to block just one page
glad there are still VPNs around
Huh, that sucks, it's a pretty cool site
you can also always try twitter for art commissions, that’s how I got stuff done and have found more as well. fiverr also works in that regard, of course
never heard about latter, thanks
Is it gonna screw up, in some way, if I have both keyboard + mouse and a controller enabled to my PC?
Not really?
Nope. That's how most pc setups work
any input from controller switches a game to controller layout, and vice versa
sometimes i'ts even possible to use both at the same time
The only game I've ever run into a problem is genshin impact and it's obnoxious lol. You have to manually set it to controller every time you open it and it disables the use of the other one entirely
Until you set it back with the new input format
Ehe te nandayo
R.I.P. for all the 9.11 victims from 19 years ago, may they rest in peace
It’s not even September
it's 11/9 today
If english isn't your native language then for your information they say it like this: month/day
if in your language they say day/month then that's why you got confused
its 10.11 here lol
it's... not a problem of English as a language. It's US notation of dates. the Brits also write 11/9/2001 for that date...
But on this particular 9.11., we can still remember the Night of Broken Glass in Germany, 82 years ago. A horrible prelude to the Holocaust
whoops sorry
As far as I can read online, apparently the English-speaking Canadians get quite confused and mix both notations xD
i just lost the game
man that was huge in my high school, people got really serious about it
I'm quite astonished and just a little proud every time I see that neither that nor rickrolling is dead yet
rickrolling is so good
math quiz in an hour. brain empty
sending good vibes
ah yes, thank for the math review, ya'll
and also CUTE BORBBB
YUki, white as snow uwu

the quiz cancelled for next week but ye, still ty. Just gonna do homework instead u-u

IT'S AN ADORABIRB 😄
oh god now i'm thinking about Adora from She-ra but she's a birb
why am i like this
i think what really matters here is what kind of birb she is
there's a really thin difference between a bird and a birb
is there like a big buff bird with a stupidly goofy face?
behold, the Great Potoo https://www.google.com/search?q=potoo
not particularly big, not quite as small as most proper birbs, certainly stupidly goofy in the face
there's also this goofy big birb fren tho https://www.google.com/search?q=shoebill&tbm=isch
https://imgur.com/3lLSkOE FOR THE HONOR... OF GRAYSKULL!!!
i love them
indeed
but do they keep their wings
I love the idea that they fly with the arms
that would look utterly stupid
flapping arms like a kid trying to fly
you mean: https://i.redd.it/dea5gjw8zh351.jpg
HAHAHA only with the power of anime
they regularly have friendly flying races with the bird that flies with sheer power of anger alone
I mean I absolutely love SGG for the amazing storytelling but sometimes it's also allowed to just be utterly stupid and ridiculous like that and it's legendary
needed to ||revenge his wife, kill buddha, save his daughter and fight ryu at one point||
I was actually impressed with the creativity of coming up with more and more ridiculousness. so many times where I wondered how they would cope with the power creep considering where the game already starts out, but they did it. especially at that battle you mention 😛
the whole game is about letting out your anger, gotta admit, almost broke my PS3 controller
hi
