Eh close enough but thanks
That’s the hydra fight and whatever is coming in that update
vestal hull
i personally beat the hydra recently with shield, and a butt ton of defensive upgrades
20% damage reduction from hammer, 20% reduction from Aphrodite, weaken on special, athena deflect dash, long lasting weaken, revenge weaken damage thingy
if things can't hurt you, you'll eventually kill them 😛

Can't buy Hades because of Epic Games using xsola for payment processing. Go back to Steam!
supple fulcrum
until epic has a discussion board for each game i think steam is still better
small lake
I’m honestly glad steam is getting competition here
supple fulcrum
same. but as i said, until they have the features needed, steam is still better.
small lake
They’ve gotten so bloated with shovelware that it’s nearly impossible to find anything good
And discord fills the role of a discussion board
supple fulcrum
real time discussion yes
but people will re ask questions since it's not a forum type deal
small lake
Anyone who actually cares enough to provide feedback is already here
Are you implying people check forums for their questions before asking?
supple fulcrum
i do.
prisma wind
Unfortunately the people who re-ask questions are the same who don't typically check forums or use search in here either, so same-same if you ask me
But #off-topic-discussion ¯_(ツ)_/¯
supple fulcrum
but you can point them to solutions
can you do that here, i'm honestly not sure if you can link to specific chat msgs
but still that sucks in comparison to having a permalink to something
prisma wind
You can pin messages, which is basically the same
supple fulcrum
you can't pin dozens of questions
prisma wind
There's a channel specifically for that though, and it's #hades-faq
supple fulcrum
idk still having a discussion area for the game they're selling is needed
small lake
We also have the benefit of real time moderation and a direct line to the devs
supple fulcrum
having an official discussion area on their store will be a more accessible direct line to devs
small lake
I’ll be the first to admit the Epic Store sucks right now
Christ, Epic Games as a company is a blight on the industry
supple fulcrum
it'll improve over time hopefully
small lake
But the only thing Steam has over it is an already established payment model and an army of rabid fans at their defense
void vigil
#off-topic-discussion for epic/steam discussion, please
supple fulcrum
is this off topic enough that we're discussing hades should be on steam too?
and discussing why?
void vigil
yes, it is
supple fulcrum
ok
void vigil
also, I would like to point you towards #hades-faq which says hades will most likely come to steam when it is out of early access
supple fulcrum
i'm aware of that. just i think it should be there even if it is still early access ¯_(ツ)_/¯
so does hades have cloudsaving? if i install this on another machine will i be able to play the same save?
spring cipher
No there's no cloud saving
prisma wind
No, cloud save is a feature of the store launcher
spring cipher
But you can find your save in C:\Users\Pyrrha\Documents\Saved Games\Hades
prisma wind
Which the current iteration of Epic does not support, though I gather they're looking into it in the future
spring cipher
Its like a couple kilopbytes
supple fulcrum
hopefully soon. i'll back up my save in the mean time
spring cipher
just email it to yourself ez
prisma wind
But yes, you can copy-paste the save easily enough
supple fulcrum
^ its not the filesize i'm worried about
just having to keep backing up is a pain
spring cipher
understandable
flint gust
I'm sorta in suppprt of the epic games store - if what they're saying is true and the devs really get more money for their product, it's worth it in supergiant's case.
alpine silo
Any idea where exactly are they going to reveal more detail about the next patch? YouTube? Their website? Here?
near lion
they might just put their notes, or a link to them, in #announcements
slender linden
yeah im honestly expecting it here as one of the first socials they'll update
if we're lucky maybe we'll be the first xD
and since we dont know the drop time, @ everyone wouldnt be a mistake
idk if mods can do that in that channel if they forgot
or @ here at least @_@
olive jungle
ngl, i have no idea if mods are allowed to @ everyone and i am far too scared to try.
vestal hull
Do it coward
slender linden
no im more curious if y'all can type in announcements at all
olive jungle
i value my fake employment
alpine silo
One try wouldn’t hurt
olive jungle
we can't type in announcements for sure, though
vestal hull
It's just one teensy weensy little @ everyone
slender linden
you could try the @ here ping, its slightly less invasive >XD
aw
well if supergiant forgot to ping us, you can test pinging live for the patch XD
if it works, great
if it doesnt work... welp
olive jungle
or y'all could all set your server settings to ping you when there are updates in #announcements 👀
slender linden
how
alpine silo
How?
olive jungle
no i'm thinking of global server settings i think
alpine silo
Actually, if I can’t set notifications for discord in anyway that would be swell
olive jungle
WAIT
you CAN do it
go to the notification settings for the server
dropdown arrow to the right of supergiant games at the top
olive jungle
it may or may not work though??
i'm playing with it now...
oh wait no i see it. ok
yeah so you can select announcements channel to override your global settings
slender linden
@_@
thats definitely new
and also kinda annoying when you have whole server muted xD
olive jungle
anyways! there you have it!
slender linden
like it wouldnt let me before i unmuted all the channels that i had double muted
xD
not to mention this whole server is a little broken for me
like normally i can mark as read any category
but not here
idk if that's admin settings or what
but its kinda annoying xD
ok i think i found a lifehack for finding this override. it's much faster when i just muted a channel, then changed to 'all' xD
hallow summit
@brisk trail four more days for what?
slender linden
first bigger early access update!
brisk trail
Yean
I've been waiting for an update since before Christmas since I ain't got nothing to do on the game.
scarlet locust
Yeah man i know that feeling, im sitting with the mirror maxed out with 1700darkness in excess. Gib more game :D
olive jungle
Depending on if there's story updates, I'm probably just going to restart the campaign tbh
I want to see how it all fits together with the new stuff in a sort of continuous run
odd wadi
anyone know where i can get transparent art of aphrodite?
odd wadi
ah! thank you! forgot about wiki
scarlet locust
Escape from tartarus is such an amazing song. Its all stuck in my head right now :D
Darren is a superb musician
Restarting for the story makes a lot of sense. Never taught of it that way.
brisk trail
i didnt think of that but im probably gonna do the same
marble sphinx
When's the next update going to be?
marble sphinx
Cool, ty
olive jungle
also there's a post in announcements
i think there will be updates on the sgg twitter?
hasty loom
Oh has that 90/10 revenue split come into effect yet? Or no word on that still
For discord doing their own thing
olive jungle
no idea. that's more of an #off-topic-discussion discussion regardless
hasty loom
Sorry yeah just heard about it recently too bad supergiant jumped the gun on epics deal instead of waiting but I know it was probably already in the making
Oh since Achilles is in Tartarus does that mean Odysseus is still alive or they haven’t added him yet?
hasty loom
Or is the game set during Odysseus ten year trip back to his home
olive jungle
The timeline of the game is unclear
hasty loom
Well I mean if Achilles is there it’s maybe after Trojan war and since how the gods see fit to give you boons they’re not too busy with the Trojan war
And garbage man?
olive jungle
she means Odysseus is kind of shady, haha
hasty loom
Oh
alpine silo
So about the next patch? Still no new news?
alpine silo
O.o Kratos is here?
hasty loom
Yes and also the artist known as drake is here to BOY
alpine silo
I’d better stay in the underworld. Cross my finger. And hope he never came here!
slender linden
i wouldnt expect any news before the actual patch drops
hasty loom
Drake!!! Draaaaaaaaaaaakkkkkeeee!!!!!
olive jungle
Well, other than teasers, anyways
slender linden
maybe something on monday but eh, i dont think so
olive jungle
dat silhouette 👌
slender linden
they already posted a teaser
alpine silo
Oh, you’re post Midgard Kratos. That’s a relive
slender linden
who's that pokegod
olive jungle
oh, i wasn't sure if there was gonna be more than one lol
hasty loom
I have two chaos blades and an axe to grind with you drake
slender linden
oh im not sure either
just idk. the patch is on patch tuesday, so i wont be expecting any patchnotes before it drops
maybe i'll get pleasantly surprised
slender linden
or ill get to read the patchnotes during game updating xD
they already teased something
and also: timezones xD
hasty loom
I hope there’s either a new boss, weapon, or more story dialogue added maybe more boons too or keepsakes
ancient elk
That's a lotta stuff
ancient elk
I can't wait to get Hades OST on google play, all the other games are
hasty loom
Oh yeah music is fantastic
vestal hull
what i want honestly is more lore and dialogue, more than anything
but something to spend keys on would be nice
slender linden
the OST isnt complete, thats probably why
slender linden
they posted separate songs on spotify as singles
where's my playlist, supergiant
xD
hasty loom
Yeah more characters and probably more sense of a timeline just think would be interesting to when this is taking place
ancient elk
Oh really, damn the only reason I use google play is cus of family share so I have it for free but spotify seems to get all the good stuff hahaha
slender linden
spotify is a weird beast
ancient elk
I hate the free version
They add songs to your playlist so you can't listen to individual songs
It's dumb
hasty loom
Commercials everywhere
slender linden
you can actually trick the browser version with adblocker
ancient elk
Idm ads if I'm listening for free
slender linden
probably not a solution on mobile
ancient elk
I think from the major update I would like a new floor and a new weapon
Maybe challenge modifiers but idk
livid cargo
i dont want that because i don't think i'd ever stop
vestal hull
this is the gameplay we need, but not the gameplay we deserve
ancient elk
Maybe for a mobile app so we can take him on the go 👀
hexed smelt
the petting thing from pokemon but it’s cerberus
hasty loom
Ha ha ha
ancient elk
YES
And instead of gifting ambrosias you can unlock their final keepsake by petting them enough
Alt-keepsakes
hasty loom
Now that would be fantastic
vestal hull
the petting thing from fire emblem but its dusa
hasty loom
Maybe on the final petting we rub his big belly
livid cargo
quick someone mod fire emblem to replace all the characters with hades characters
hasty loom
I just think it’s cute and funny that dusa is just a floating head that’s nice back when she was fighting Perseus she had a stone cold personality if you know what I mean
ancient elk
Get you someone that can do both
hasty loom
Oooh maybe someday they’ll add the Minotaur
And the final boss Liam neeson and his pet kraken
And maybe just maybe they’ll bring back Medusa’s body and we’ll have to fight her but probably not cuz she’s a favorite along with Cerberus
Probably for gameplay but I think like dark souls the last enemy type to kill you should give gold or something for killing it
Next run or something
cloud stirrup
At some point Cerberus should came as a boss, you know...
livid cargo
no thanks
livid cargo
that's too deep
alpine stratus
the final boss is zag pointing at the screen and making you confront a parental figure in your real life

i wonder if there will be a lot more people trying out hades post-update

Ooh those would be a pain
Them plus the big dudes with the clubs
Or the fat guys
brisk trail
were there cyclops in ancient greek myth
ancient elk
Yep
I would love a boss where it's an absolutely giant monster and you have to take it down limb by limb
they seem to talk about the weapons being used against the titans a lot 👀
hasty loom
Kronos incoming
livid cargo
Mods, can confirm those accs have been making the rounds
livid cargo

I know titans are like, mega dead but it'd be cool to see something of them

are they gonna be. the same titans?? do we get to see, like limbless azriech..... again?? (i hope so)

The call for mods is still in the announcements channel, btw
Even tho the applications are closed rn
like the message wasn’t deleted, if you’re curious
ancient elk
I feel like a guideline is when we stan a character we stan together
Like the whole mod dusa phase
Can we have sys next @ mods
frosty mountain
dusa is forever
alpine stratus
why dont we see if he gets a face 👀

So, on a scale of 1-10 how much would you want to see sys's art be fingerless danny devito and why is it 10
(thats hades discussion right?)
alpine stratus
NEGATIVE. A THOUSAND
ancient elk
Kamila, I once respected you
void vigil
so what characters are you guys most excited to see the face of and what characters do you think we’ll see the face of next update
small lake
Okay but why though
alpine stratus
respect from someone who wants sisyphus to be danny devito means nothing to me
frosty mountain
artemis is up there
ancient elk
Wow, that hurts a lot

Artemis for sure
alpine stratus
HOLLOW BOULDY
ancient elk
Artemis with green swirls gimme gimme
frosty mountain
for some reason I'm really attached to the placeholder nyx
void vigil
I’m most excited for nyx honestly and I think she’s in the update
oh hollow bouldy.... I’ve heard of that game
ancient elk
Wait, if they're changing them from place holders are their 3d models gonna change?
alpine stratus
i hooooooope the yesderdaty thing was nyxxxxx
ancient elk
Thats so cool
small lake
Inside Bouldy is a hidden gyro stand
frosty mountain
I hope so
void vigil
Kaf put bouldy on your icon
hexed smelt
@ancient elk probably not!
vale kite
that silhouette looks like artemis
ancient elk
Why not @hexed smelt ? Their models at the moment look like the place holders picture
vale kite
idk the stance and the halo scream artemis to me
hexed smelt
frosty mountain
how does the halo scream artemis?
vale kite
it kinda looks like a bow
ancient elk
I think someone said cus it looked like bats on their head and cus of the colours of the bg it looks like nyx
hexed smelt
small lake
They’re going to pull a bait and switch on us, it’ll be a completely new character
ancient elk
Erebus maybeee
vale kite
new god
void vigil
my vote is for Chaos if it’s a new character
ancient elk
They already have their ring
vale kite
4 days until the next installment of the zag of bel-air
void vigil
Thanatos is probably a more reasonable guess but 🤷
hexed smelt
i think it's nyx and i stand by that
ancient elk
and erebus personifies darkness
hexed smelt
i'm fully prepared to be made a fool of in four days
hexed smelt
@ancient elk
hexed smelt
anyways
imostly think it's nyx because the art looks pretty well-devloped from the silhouette and i'm doubtful that they'd go ahead and give an Entirely New Character polished-up art when we still have five hooded characters hanging about?
frosty mountain
sparrow, what's your icon?

randomize weapon/keepsake/maybe mirror builds

ohhhhhhhhhh

oh

ok yeah it sounded like u meant just. let the bot play! the robot beats hydra!

hey it's franklin

My guess is its one of the characters who dont have their art yet
But I cant say it fits Nyx or Artemis very obviously?
livid cargo
I could see it as Apollo
brisk trail
Well
There was lots of stars on it
Nyx is the night mother
makes sense to me
Not to mention Megaera has a bat wing
And there are seemingly bat wings on the head, Nyx is megs mom
ancient elk
Bat wings all the way

98% sure it’s Nyx
Artemis wouldn’t wear such an impractical dress
And I can’t see them adding new deities before having art for the current ones

it could be just for the presentation

stars are light blue?
hexed smelt
i'm not saying look at the lines coming from behind the silhouette
i mean the actual background
jaunty falcon
or maybe its morpheus the god of dreams
hexed smelt
stars
jaunty falcon
he also has wings on his head
fickle karma
I wonder what you're trying to imply here, sparrow 
vale kite
stars
yet another proof that hades and pyre take place in the same universe
i'm connecting dots here
humble pollen
Still confident art is Nyx
Since that looks like a fancy dress, which Artemis wouldn’t wear, and Nyx’s daughter already has a wing
Plus she’s the first character we run into missing a portrait
So it makes sense for her to get the next one
humble pollen
The only other person who can say “I am the night”

QED
hexed smelt
i still think it's nyx but i could also consider it being, say, chaos - something with blood gates is probably going to change and the stars in the background are reminding me a lot of the backdrop in the blood gates now that i look more closely
but that would be one heck of a character to drop on us out of nowhere
brisk trail
Yeah I could see it being Chaos as well
hexed smelt
and it also just, doesn't......... fit? like, aesthetically
humble pollen
Think it’s early for new characters just yet
Not while we’re still missing portraits of the current ones
hexed smelt
mhm, particularly when five are missing their proper art
yeah
gdi why can't i find any screenshots of inside a blood gate to illustrate my point
humble pollen
I could do a run when I get home to grab a pic

Hey guys, apologies if I'm in the wrong chat... But, I would like to know... Does Supergiant G. Are planning on release the OST as DLC in the Epic Store as well?
olive jungle
Don't know!
I haven't heard anything to that effect
It's currently available on youtube, though
prisma wind
If they do, it won't be until after the game is out of Early Access when they release it as a full album anyway ¯_(ツ)_/¯
paper hornet
@olive jungle I know!, and actually, Darren created a PlayList on Spotify with some singles!
olive jungle
Since the game will be released on other platforms after early access, you might see the soundtrack available for sale on Steam? But again, nothing certain for now
oh, there is a spotify list! good to know
paper hornet
@hidden pawn Yeah, I also know that the game must be out first, that's fine, I'm just worried about not having the OST directly from the store as well, or as part of the game as DLC
prisma wind
Oh I see
paper hornet
@olive jungle Yeah!, that's the thing, I really want to buy the game now and support them now!, but I don't want to buy it twice in the future just to get the soundtrack as DLC too. I don't want to sound cheap, it's just that I have plans for my money in the following months (Mom's birthday, for example, a big one!) and I don't want to "wait" until it is on Steam or so later on. (Not I'm thinking that the game will be out of Early Access in the following months, no rush here) It's just that money is tight for at least half of the year aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand I would love to support the Epic Store more than Steam lol
Also... Any news about achivements? lol
prisma wind
No news on that front either, I'm afraid. As far as I know Epic Store doesn't support an achievement system in its launcher, not sure if they have plans to add it either. I'm sure there will be cheevos on Steam, but even if there are as well on Epic I wouldn't expect it before full release
olive jungle
No news yet! achievements would be a post-release thing too, I imagine
Although
It's...tentative so it may not shake out this way but there seem to possibly be plans for some kind of online rankings system or challenge modes
I use all the qualifiers because they haven't said anything to that effect but based on their response to feedback we can guess
Also, totally understand planning your purchases well in advance, and I'm sorry I can't be more helpful. There's not really a roadmap at this time...
Not a public one anyways.
reef sinew
Guys is the game on sale right now? Can't remember the original price right now, was it $11.99?
olive jungle
no, $19.99 i believe
reef sinew
Weird, don't see a sale announced anywhere yet
fiery pebble
So I guess there wont be a major rework of the core gameplay?
Seeing how the only ones mentioning it that got a reaction got the no entry sign reaction
olive jungle
I mean, it looks like there are gonna be some pretty major pacing and balancing changes, as well as more synergy between weapons and boons
but the game is a roguelite so i don't think they're planning to make it Not A Roguelite or anything
fiery pebble
Yes, but the part where going all-in on one attack is too effective seems to not be something they want to change
olive jungle
I thought that had a notebook next to it?
fiery pebble
The onle one I found had a no entry sign reaction
Though I might have missed something
There are a lot of posts in feedback
olive jungle
yeah I might be misremembering cuz I can't find it in my notebook, but it does seem like making attack types interact more with each other is a goal
fiery pebble
I hope so
Though moreso changing how boons work seems neccessary in the long run if were supposed to get more levels
We will see, I guess
olive jungle
Yeah, they 📝'd most of the boon comments
fiery pebble
A lot of the ones drawing parallels to Transistor didnt get a reaction though
Which Im guessing means theyre not sure yet?
olive jungle
as in, i think it's going to be a sort of ongoing process on balancing and reworking boons
nah, it means they're looking into it
and will address it in future updates
check the pinned post in feedback
olive jungle
oh! when they don't get a reaction i think that's usually like...they want to keep it around for now?
they don't have immediate plans to address it but they don't think it's invalid either
gleaming geode
Okay, I have a few silly questions. Now that Epic games has regional pricing, I was thinking of purchasing Hades. I have a few questions though. Once it leaves early access and is available on other platforms like steam, do I have to purchase it again on steam? Also, if I get it again on steam, will my progress be reset on that platform?
(Not sure if this was exactly the right channel to ask this, please re-direct me otherwise)
olive jungle
Yes, you will presumably have to re-purchase the game on steam.
It's two separate copies of the game
Your progress in terms of say, Steam achievements, would obviously be started from 0, because Epic doesn't have Steam achievements. But if you wanted to keep your saves, all you'd need to do is copy your save files from one folder to another
Honestly I'm not sure how having the same game installed on your PC twice would work out
You can, I believe, add the game as a non-steam game to your steam library
Though again that wouldn't come with community features.
gleaming geode
Yeah, it wouldn't be the same
I honestly prefer steam because of community features, but I'm not one for re-purchasing games. Gonna think about this one.
dark tusk
So, anyone want to make predictions on what the update is?
olive jungle
Wight made a list of the feedback that seemed like it was going to be answered, and then we've got that silhouette...
slender linden
how do you copy message links? @_@ is it browser only?
dark tusk
_looks at his own feedback
all feedback was either downvoted by the masses or the upvoted ones got a no entry sign
feelsbadman_
slender linden
its not 'no entry' xD it means people deemed it irrelevant
olive jungle
the no entry symbol was a feedback symbol from sgg
it means it's not a feature they're planning to implement
the ❌ is the irrelevant reacc
dark tusk
ironically the one i wanted to see while downvoted to hell did not get a no entry sign
olive jungle
yeah, that's where we got the list
slender linden
to see their feedback to our feedback
dark tusk
It's pretty cool of them I agree
even though i guess it stings when you know your idea won't happen
slender linden
and like, the solution
you probably wouldnt get the opportunity for that if that was purely steam community feedback or something like that @_@
if only for the reason that it's not a thing
discord reactions are amazing xD
dark tusk
Yep
alpine silo
When are we going to get more information about the new patch? I can’t wait much longer!
olive jungle
when it comes out, I'd assume, haha
brisk trail
Pretty sure they aren't saying anything until patch hits.
olive jungle
it's the weekend now so I doubt SGG's going to be doing much
ancient elk
After being quiet all this time I doubt they'd say something 3 days away hahaha
I'm so excited thoooo
slender linden
i wouldnt expect anything on monday either, its the last day for fix its if anything broke last minute
ancient elk
Have you watched the vlog thing about sgg and hades?
slender linden
not rly
ancient elk
They said in it that before they release anything they just sit down and spend a few hours playing through the game not in terms of a designer but as gamers
I reckon they'll be doing that for a while and last minute stuff
slender linden
i mean, that's fair xD
ancient elk
Honestly I think it shows passion for their game which is cool
slender linden

Can i play Hades on Mac?
short elm
when the new patch will be available
olive jungle
slender linden
do you think there's a chance there will be in game timer to the patch? @_@ it'd be cool if we could see how many hours til it drops
open void
Okay, phew, i'm hyped up so hard for Hades so i'm glad to hear it will be available on Mac
ancient elk
@slender linden that'd be nice with timezones making the 15th at different times for everyone
slender linden
yep
eu here, thats why im asking xD
i might feedback that for future updates if its not a thing this time
dark tusk
A reset to a in game timer should read: Time until Hades has a total meltdown from everything and changes everything in the underworld. Again. : 25-37 or whatever the time is.
dark tusk
it can still be on the main menu, that's just how it's worded
slender linden
👌🏻
ancient elk
It's like waiting for christmas all over again
fiery pebble
Well new years in my case, but yes

d-do they have mineral water in the underworld

Yes, but noone has figured out why it tastes different from normal water or if it even does

Does anyone feel like hades is going to pull a god of war with its story by throwing a bunch of known characters from different timelines or whatever?
ancient elk
I reckon they'll try to incorporate big names from greek mythology ye, they've already kinda done it with Daedalus and Achilles
I would love for them to try to add in Daedalus labrynth
frosty mountain
I just had a crazy bug
hasty loom
And dusa
ancient elk
Maybe the secret level every1 wants so dearly
frosty mountain
during a portion of hydra fight, my walk speed got reduced to like 1/3
frosty mountain
no, it lasted for like 20 seconds
ancient elk
Did you report it?
hasty loom
Oh boy that’s a just the game balancing itself out by saying you’re too powerful
ancient elk
Cool
hasty loom
Yeah I’ve never heard of him
frosty mountain
I mean, I know the mynotaur and the labyrinth and all
ancient elk
He made the labyrinth, he was involved in Icarus so I would think so?
frosty mountain
are kinda known
frosty mountain
icarus is I wouldn't say so for daedalus
ancient elk
true, but he's certainly very involved
hasty loom
Oh that’s right totally forgot is he Icarus father?
frosty mountain
I reckon it's him with the hammer because haephestus is reserved for something else
ancient elk
It's called Daedalus hammer lel
frosty mountain
what I meant is
one would think they'd have Hephaestus smithing stuff
with the hammer
hasty loom
Wow I totally forgot he was his father
ancient elk
Hephaestus could be like fire attacks and like the poms for the hammer, it could make the numbers on it bigger basically lol
hasty loom
So basically he constructed the ever shifting levels and stuff in hades
frosty mountain
naaah
frosty mountain
daedalus is a puny mortal
ancient elk
It'd be cool if Pythagoras was in the game
hasty loom
Zagreus the Pythagoras
prisma wind
@olive jungle @slender linden Re: copying message links — I had to do some digging on The Internet™, but I figured it out. If you turn on Developer Mode in Settings > Appearance, it enables the Copy Link option to show up in the context menu on messages. From there you get a direct link to a given message. Pretty cool, I had no idea that it existed either. Also, glad you're finding my list useful 
hasty loom
Not a working joke sorry
frosty mountain
I mean, pythagoras comes in a bit later
ancient elk
Later?
frosty mountain
what I mean, is he lived at like 580-500
he isn't related to mythos or folklore anyways
ancient elk
Oh, I mean time doesn't necessarily matter Sisyphus has been in the underworld for long enough to become humbled he says so himself
So like
They can just go chucking any1 from the greek era in there really
But you're right he's not mythology so prally not haha
frosty mountain
I think they mostly wanna take stuff from myth
maybe if zag ever makes it to the surface
he could meet some interesting peeps
like potentially pythagoras
jaunty falcon
do u think this gamer will have multiplayer in the future ?
prisma wind
No, it won't have multiplayer
frosty mountain
no, they said it will not
ancient elk
I would kind of like for Zag to make it to the surface and it's the modern era and he's really shocked by cars and tall buildings etc
jaunty falcon
a 2-4 player coop survival would have been nice
ancient elk
Idk any roguelikes with online multiplayer which is a shame
frosty mountain
dungeon of the endless!
ancient elk
And the only decent local is wizard of legend ive found
jaunty falcon
dunno how many played god of war ascension
jaunty falcon
but the multiplayer
was very nice
bas it died out cuz no updates
and server issues
iam a sukcer for mythology games
sucker*
ancient elk
Honestly same
frosty mountain
@ancient elk it's a cult favourite, but it's a bit weird. it's sort of a tower defence roguelite. It's good, I recommend it, but you gotta do some research before buying. you might not like it
jaunty falcon
God of War is the reason
jaunty falcon
so much lore
ancient elk
@frosty mountain thanks! I play roguelikes and so does a friend of mine but we never really play together just cus there isn't many but I'll defo check it out
frosty mountain
hey, if you end up picking it up, let me know we could even play together :^)
ancient elk
Smooooth criminal haha
ancient elk
Local isn't that good anyways
frosty mountain
maybe I confuse things
ancient elk
isaacs is especially poopy lol
frosty mountain
yeah, agreed
ancient elk
Yeexacly, (good game tho)
I'm really interested in what sgg is gonna do for post underworld
If they'll just end the game
Or make the titans come back
slender linden
@prisma wind whoa. that sounds complicated xD
prisma wind
It's not that complicated. It's like... 3 button clicks
slender linden
if i touch developer mode, i'll break discord
frosty mountain
there's a lot of space to explore
prisma wind
Though the Copy Link option isn't available on the mobile app currently
frosty mountain
question is, how much does sgg have in scope
ancient elk
I mean
They can take it as far as they want
Idk do they have a set date they wanna fully release teh game by?
Surely they can keep adding content just because the game is a rogulike
prisma wind
Not a set date, no
ancient elk
Like how isaac added delerium
prisma wind
Just a year+ of Early Access
frosty mountain
they said at least a yaer in ea
sgg doesnt have a record of adding content post launch and I don't think that'll change
ancient elk
But SGG hasn't done a game that you could add content really
frosty mountain
and idk how much content can be added in 1.5 years or so
ancient elk
Bastion, transistor and pyre are all story games where the story ended
But this isn't a story driven game
Its a good blend
frosty mountain
fair enough, I'd love it if they added more post launch, I just don't think they will
frosty mountain
also
they're approaching hades as a "series" in a narrative perspective
when we reach the end of the narrative on release, would they add more?
I don't think they will if there is no narrative to accompany it
but one can hope
ancient elk
Yeah true, I also wonder where they'd end it
gleaming crane
Maybe side-stories or something?
ancient elk
Zag got out
Bish bash bosh
Ngl I would be a lil disappointed if it was just
Ooft my internet died and messed up that order
frosty mountain
we get what you mean :p
but zag's goal isn't to escape only
it's to reunite with persephony
prisma fossil
Iirc Zeus was chill with Hades taking Persephone, so maybe
frosty mountain
why not. they seem supportive enough
hello?
my discord is lagging like, mega bad
ancient elk
They're supportive of Zag getting out
Meg called Zag's true purpose a little secret
So I assume there's something about it he doesn't want others to find out?
frosty mountain
yeah, I think peeps in the underworld still consider nyx his mother
ancient elk
I think the gods might too 👀
frosty mountain
what do they care tho
prisma fossil
Well if they put Demeter in the game it might get awkward
frosty mountain
god why am I lagging so
ancient elk
I would assume they are as she's one of the 12 Olympians isnt she
prisma fossil
She is, one of the original 6 even
ancient elk
And yeeeah, I think discord is dying a lil bit
Oooh, thats funny cus I feel like she's also one of the more lowkey gods
hasty loom
Boy!!!
prisma fossil
I think she's the goddess of harvest, so it's not exactly super... interesting
hasty loom
Boy!! When’s the next update?
ancient elk
It'd be cool if your attacks could grow grass on the ground, and the grass slows enemies
prisma fossil
Ooh yeah a "root" mechanic could be cool
hasty loom
Boy!! When’s the next update?
small lake
Demeter is also the goddess of Law, so you could do some interesting things with that angle
hasty loom
Whoa I only texted that boy when’s the next update once but it has it like five times I think discord is messing up
Sorry
slender linden
discord is borked right now
frosty mountain
man tuesday can't come soon enough
hasty loom
I wonder if there’s multiple endings due to how much you gifted each god or took their boons or something
brisk trail
Do you guys think you should be forced to accept a boon?
Because I could see no boon challenge runs in future,, but its not possible right now
frosty mountain
I think the chance to skip a boon wouldn't hurt
prisma wind
Based on the feedback results, it seems we might be getting a solution to true no-boon challenges with the possibility of challenge mode/a keepsake that prevents boons
prisma wind
But I remember a while back we were talking about whether you should be forced to accept boons, and my stance is I think you should be allowed to reject them, but it upsets them like in the Trial. The only difference from the Trial would be that you'd fight the boosted enemies but would get no reward at the end
