#

Oh

prisma wind
#

That is, if you think it's too easy

#

||The game has a challenge system that unlocks after you beat the Hydra the first time||

placid spindle
#

Oohhh

#

Daddy like

prisma wind
#

That's what heat is for

placid spindle
#

Damn

#

Im gonna wait on that one thou

#

I got by on like

#

The first level of every mirror upgrade

prisma wind
#

I would recommend trying to get clears with each weapon, too, if you want to challenge yourself

placid spindle
#

If I want a challenge I’m gonna unlock and upgrade everything first

#

Yeah

#

Will do

#

But I’m really enjoying the game at the moment

#

Cerberus is gud doggo

prisma wind
#

Since you've only played for so short, I'm thinking that maybe you haven't even met the other Furies yet?

placid spindle
#

Pls keep him in the game forever

#

Nah

prisma wind
#

They're... an experience

placid spindle
#

Damn

#

I feel like The Meg was annoying, so I look forward to it

#

Yes I do mean The Meg

#

As in the movie

prisma wind
#

Meg is great friendly I highly recommend investing Ambrosia in her

placid spindle
#

Damn

#

I accidentally invested ambrosia on hypnos

#

As I was walking past him lmao

#

Hypnos is a kool guy

#

I like him too

#

“Just try talking it out”

prisma wind
#

You'll end up with a surplus of ambrosia anyway, eventually, so don't sweat it too much 🙃

placid spindle
#

Damn

#

Tbh ambrosia is just pineapple juice

prisma wind
#

I've done something like... 190? runs since launch, maybe a bit more. I have a surplus of probably 60 ambrosia

#

There are others who play a heck of a lot more than me, though

placid spindle
#

I invested my first ambrosia on cerberus

prisma wind
#

The correct choice

placid spindle
#

Lemme say that was very worth it

#

Like good god his item is like

#

The best

#

100 max health every run

#

Hoo

#

Best doge

#

Also good god is uhh

#

The wretched dude

#

He is annoying

#

Just

#

His wares are annoying to gamble with

prisma wind
#

110 at max level, isn't it?

placid spindle
#

I think so

#

Not sure

prisma wind
#

Eh, the Wretched Broker has good deals sometimes. It's mostly meant for when you're in my situation of having an excess, I think. Or if you really want to save a bit of time early on. Sometimes it's a Bad Deal though, too

#

I'm using the Broker to feed my Fated Authority addiction by buying Darkness whenever I can

placid spindle
#

But yeah wretched spirit was useful only once, and that was when I got 6 keys for a bit of darkness

#

Anyways

#

Ill brb

red coral
#

You gotta keep an eye out for when the broker is doing a swap deal haha

#

Pay 45 darkness for 2 ambrosia, pay 2 ambrosia for 78 darkness 👌

placid spindle
#

Damn

#

I usually only buy when I need the currency

#

More than another

#

Also I cant wait till hades is out on the switch

#

Lmao

#

Also

#

You know I’m sad hades didnt go the pyre route and do some greek speech in there

#

Like that would be kool

#

Greek voice lines would be awesome

raven venture
#

Hey hey

#

So, I have been the wondering

#

Hades, should I buy it NOW or wait a little while?

red coral
#

Ok so here’s the deal-

#

The next update is in two months, and will feature a whole new area. So in theory, that’s a great time to buy it.

#

BUT, if you haven’t played the game at all, it will take you several weeks possibly to even encounter the next area at all, so your enjoyment time will be delayed from the rest of the community.

placid spindle
#

Whats nyalls thoughts on the greek voice lines

#

I suggested

red coral
#

I think they would be fun but difficult to implement

placid spindle
#

True

#

Wait is kid zomb on the server

#

This server i mean

#

Or uh

#

Yeah

#

The dude who did the voice lines writing for pyre and stuff

#

I forget if he was on this server

raven venture
#

Well

#

I got like a month or so or more

#

Since... FFXIV stuff, GW2 stuff, and MTG stuff are all in a row or something like that

#

So Adding Hades into the mix will make it more smooth

#

Not to mention it may give me inspiriation to animate hades stuff too

tulip lava
#

at most they've done text localizations i don't think sgg has the resources to do voice localizations

placid spindle
#

Ah

#

Damn

#

Sad

tulip lava
#

personally i can't speak to the quality of localizations except chinese

placid spindle
#

Wait whos the dude known as kid zomb on steam

tulip lava
#

greg

placid spindle
#

Ah yeah ok

tulip lava
#

i wonder if sgg would be open to feedback about localization quality

#

obviously they outsource it so the details aren't in their hands.... but presumably they choose who to outsource it to

prisma wind
#

All (most?) of the SG staff are in the Discord, and Greg is among the more active when it comes to interaction 👍

tulip lava
#

eh maybe i'll leave a line during the next ama

#

localization for hades probably won't be on their radar until the game's done

upbeat swift
#

Hello, there is smth i want to ask: when i take shield + poseidon buff on special + torrent => my fps drops to 1, is this ok? GWseremePeepoThink

golden jackal
#

well, clearly not

upbeat swift
#

i throw my shield it goes to hit enemies => fps drops untill my shield returns GWseremePeepoHappy

red coral
#

I would report that in-game with f10!

upbeat swift
#

wow, i didn't know about f10 GWseremePeepoHappy

fiery pebble
#

In the meantime, just dont use shield special

upbeat swift
#

@fiery pebble but i want hadooooken GWsetmyxPeepoCry

fiery pebble
#

Use Poseidons cast

upbeat swift
#

Bow + special x2 arrow amount + Deflect + hunt crit on deflect GWseremePeepoF

fiery pebble
#

No need to ping

#

Seriously

upbeat swift
#

sry

marsh rover
#

I haven’t bought Hades

red coral
#

Are you considering buying it?

amber garden
#

It's so good.

modest wagon
#

Hey all

#

Just bought and installed the game

#

Tips for a starter?

golden jackal
#

don't worry so much about dying. get a feel for enemy patterns and what boons you like best

flat vapor
#

dying is good for your health

modest wagon
#

interesting

#

thanks guys

flat vapor
#

also don't be afraid to experiment with dashing, specials, etc, you literally have all the time in the world

modest wagon
#

good to know

flat vapor
#

always go for the hammer as soon as you see it, it's literally a build-maker in one upgrade

#

so much so that once you get it, you'll never see it again

#

aside from that, the game pretty much takes care of the basics for you

modest wagon
#

thankyou very much onyx ❤

#

already enjoying the first few minutes

red coral
#

Have fun! Let us know what your favorite booms and builds are!

modest wagon
#

will do!

placid spindle
#

im sad there isnt hephaestus boon

#

very sad

#

hed be perfect

#

theres goddamn chaos but no fire god

golden jackal
#

they hinted they'd be willing to put more content like that later so keep your hopes up

void vigil
#

what new things could a fire boon bring though?

#

i just cant think of any bc we have like, aoe stuff and damage overtime thanks to dionysus

#

also, im no greek myth expert so im only going off of wikipedia but hes a blacksmithing god and the weapon upgrade spot is taken by daedalus rn

#

like, fire too, but its not the first thing you think about when you hear hephaestus

#

ah. and he was cast away from olympus so. hmm

spring cipher
#

I want hestia

#

I stan her

#

Shes like the best

flat vapor
#

i'm pretty sure fire is already being taken up by hades, if i recall correctly from the asphodel narrator bits

#

and he's uhhhh not into the whole escaping thing so

#

sgg does want at least one more olympian by the end of this year, so i think they might already have a god and their mechanics in mind

void vigil
#

im hoping its apollo personally :>

tulip lava
#

hoping for a sunny boy

cloud jewel
#

a real bright and shining boy

olive jungle
#

a bi disaster boy

placid spindle
#

Hephaestus is also known for living in Mount Aetna

#

But also it could be more just stuff like high aoe damage? Dionysus seems to be more AOE DoT rather than just strict AoE high damage

#

Like burst damage stuff

lilac rain
#

i heard that Hades wont be released on Steam, is that true?

prisma wind
#

It won't be released until the game is out of Early Access, at the very least

#

From #hades-faq

We expect to bring Hades to a variety of other platforms once Early Access is complete, including Steam. That’s not for a while so we can't make any promises here yet.```
void vigil
#

hades’ ea period is estimated to be around a year and a half, so expect that

#

also dio cast is normal aoe iirc. it’s just also a stun

#

rail special is also aoe

cyan copper
#

hey guys when zag gives dusa ambrosia

#

where does she hold it

#

or open it

native atlas
#

If she can dust using her hair/snakes

cyan copper
#

does he actually just nestle it into her snake hair

native atlas
#

i guess she can open a bttle with it

cyan copper
#

if the snakes drink

#

is it the same as dusa drinking

#

or

#

are they independent

native atlas
#

I don't know for sure to be honest :)))

cyan copper
#

hmm 🤔

native atlas
#

Is there among us any expert in mythical creatures biology?

cyan copper
#

s1 help dusa biology

gleaming crane
#

I don't think ancient Greek people cared about details.

#

Vera from Monster Prom's snakes are pretty much pet snakes attached to her head, though. She has to feed them, and while they won't just obey any order, they can be trained.

cyan copper
#

hmmm

#

so really we need abrosia for dusa

#

and her snakes

gleaming crane
#

Depends, do you plan to smooch the snakes, Dusa, or both? stumptLewd

lusty falcon
#

yes

#

they all deserve smooches

patent phoenix
#

hi im new to this server and im loving the game and am loving the greek theme and just had a thought that adding chronos to the game would be very cool, i dont know how this would be done but maybe as a type of endless mode that you can unlock further into the game where chronos would come to ask if you wanted to revert time and keep your upgrades but second run would be harder etc

native atlas
#

Hello @patent phoenix
There is a way in which you can replay the content in a harder fashion, i won't spoil it for you.

Lol. Good old the Onion

Oh I'm sorry

limber current
#

Hello, is there any way to get rid of the region lock in playhades.com? I'm in Korea and it seems I can't get it here..

golden jackal
prisma wind
#

Unfortunately that's an Epic Launcher issue, there won't be anything that Supergiant can do about it

limber current
#

Yeah.. wasn't sure where to ask..

olive jungle
#

Yeah, currently Hades isn't available in some regions due to region-locking of the Epic Store

golden jackal
#

is there a reason why they do that?

olive jungle
#

Rights issues, I'd imagine

#

Or they're having trouble complying with a local set of laws re: online storefronts

prisma wind
#

Korea release is on Epic's roadmap, no defined date https://trello.com/b/GXLc34hk/epic-games-store-roadmap

limber current
#

Oh thank you. So I'd have to wait for Hades to be released on other platforms right?

#

@prisma wind Thanks.

olive jungle
#

Yeah; it'll be released on other platforms after it's finished

terse island
#

Hello anybody here ? 😃

low leaf
#

Does it feel like the Guaranteed CRIT after deflection completely negates the majority of Artemis boons?

vale kite
#

well not entirely as you need to actually deflect something

#

it's harder to proc the crit on deflect from melee enemies for exampkle

mellow bluff
#

Will there be an updated gameplay trailer soon? The old ones super outdated =/

low leaf
#

@vale kite However once you get into LLL (Lethal Lava Land) 8/10 times you have a witch or something to deflect.

vale kite
#

yes

peak crest
#

I have a question. Why does Chaos look like James Charles

#

just saw the resemblance

hexed smelt
#

chaos sweetie i'm so sorry that someone would even say that

peak crest
#

oh boy he's an insult huh. never watched his vids but oh well lol

alpine stratus
#

chaos sweetie!!!!!

#

chaosuwu talky uh oh sisters!!!!! (curses you so dashing does -4 damage)

tulip lava
#

oh no

#

chaos sweetie

brazen tangle
#

uh oh sisters!! (gives you an attack debuff boon while you’re using the shield on asphodel with no special buffs)

alpine stratus

the sisters are their coat heads

vital finch
#

Hello, someone sent me this tweet:

#

The replies indicated an update to pet Cerberus was coming in a future update -- could anyone tell me if this feature is available yet?

alpine stratus
#

it is not! but soon, hopefully 🙏

vital finch
#

Okay, thank you for your help. I will keep an eye on this.

alpine stratus
#

side note, you do good work out there

vital finch
#

I appreciate your kindness, and quick reply.

fiery pebble
#

Tbh, we need a cat in Hades

astral lagoon
#

Yes Thanatos’s cat

livid cargo
#

Catanatos

tulip lava
#

asher again

alpine stratus
#

asher is a cat in the hades universe

#

(ashers face overlayed on the what we do in the shadows he never gets the faces right cat)

hardy atlas
#

i mean, there is a cat in the camerata's penthouse. maybe he ended up in hades after getting processed somehow

brisk trail
#

you want cats? Go hard, make it a weapon: catapult

#

Or, like the "perfect landing" gag, have a one-time "mystery" god orb where Bastet answers, and when Zag asks "uhm, should I know you?" she says "sorry wrong number/pantheon" and hangs up

cyan copper
#

finally did my first 60 heat 🙏🏼 shadesmile

peak crest
#

That's amazing! I'd never be able to do that high of a heat

#

ah while I'm here. What's everyone's favourite piece of dialogue from Meg?

cyan copper
#

ah u can, just requires patience and a bit of luck for the last boss

brisk trail
#

I feel the wrath gauge is a bit too hard to build

#

I don't mind it being at zero each time yoou enter a room

amber garden
#

It gets easier in later areas.

#

Which isn't necessarily helpful, but toy do usually get to use it once per room in Asphodel

quaint oar
#

Hey if anyone is here, I have a question about playing offline: Is it possible with the EpicGames Launcher? And if so how?

amber garden
#

I haven't tried tbh.

gleaming crane
#

Yes, you can just launch the .exe from the folder, there is no need to even open the launcher (except to install it and for updates).

wanton spindle

pogchamp

thorny river
#

hey may i ask something

#

i love the company and all i have every single one of their games but i wanna ask a question (not offensively) why was the decision made to put hades only on epic store?

prisma wind
#

It's only on Epic during the Early Access period

thorny river
#

why is that?

#

i mean i love hades but epic is kinda shady

prisma wind
#

I don't believe they've ever stated the reason publicly

thorny river
#

will we get a code for it on steam or something later on ?

olive jungle
#

Most likely not

prisma wind
#

No, you'd have to buy it again if you want it on another platform

thorny river
#

ah

olive jungle
#

The game is DRM-free, though, so as long as your main issue is "epic is shady" and not "i can't play this game unless it has achievements and community features", you can always buy it and keep the launcher shut down except for updates

thorny river
#

i can play the game its amazing

#

i have it already but i was just curious

#

i will do that thanks @olive jungle

clever linden
humble pulsar
#

Just need to turn off the launcher everytime you boot up the computer, I haven't found if there's a setting that prevents it from starting on launch

spare sinew
#

yes, in your startup settings on the computer you can disable it

humble pulsar
#

oh ok cool

quaint oar
#

@gleaming crane Where was the .exe I cannot find it for the life of me

prisma wind
#

Find your install directory, and it will be under Epic Games\Hades\x64\Hades.exe

rotund wolf
#

So if my game says v0.14115 how do I tell it to update

prisma wind
#

Open the Epic Games launcher and either make sure it's set to auto-update, or tell it to update Hades when viewing your library

rotund wolf
#

It is set to auto-update, I am not seeing a manual update option anywhere in the library

prisma wind
#

Try using the Verify option

rotund wolf
#

Don't have that either

#

Just create a shortcut, auto update, uninstall

prisma wind
#

That seems... broken on Epic's end

rotund wolf
#

I guess I'll just have to reinstall :/

prisma wind
#

Make sure Epic is updated? And yeah, you can try reinstalling too

rotund wolf
#

Can't even find out how to update that or even the version number x.x

#

What the heck is this launcher's deal

prisma wind
#

Version number is displayed at the bottom of the Downloads tab. Mine is 4.14.3.release-egstore-4.14.3.904<insert some long hash>.b3950

rotund wolf
#

Ah same as mine

#

Looks like reinstalling is my only choice

prisma wind
#

Hope it works 🙏

rotund wolf
#

Oh

prisma wind
#

Oh?

rotund wolf
#

So I guess it wasn't updating because it thinks I don't own the game anymore

prisma wind
#

Time to open a support ticket with Epic, maybe?

rotund wolf
#

Yeah :/

coarse maple
#

Oph. I've been trying the spear for the first time after doing all my runs with the sword

#

and I ran into the input buffering issue that I noticed folks mentioned before

#

It must be hard to figure out the right balance for it

ripe violet
#

Anyone else think that potentially next [Maybe final?] weapon is going to be something heavy/slow? My friend thinks it'll be something more like a pair of daggers, considering the fast pace of the game, but I figure something like a battle axe or heavy club or something like that would work wonders.

radiant tangle
#

I'd love a heavy weapon (I'm hoping for axe :3)

crystal pecan
#

@ripe violet pair of daggers would be a nice homage to God of War

midnight bay
#

Since the Adamant Rail exists anything’s on the table

prisma wind
#

Next weapon: pool noodle

midnight bay
#

“Wielded by the Great Poseidon in the war against the Titans, the Neptunian Noodle was an unconventional, but deadly weapon”

#

The special could be shooting water out of the noodle, either by doing a charge shot or even just having it work like the Flame Bellows

so I am poor and can't get original games, so I downloaded cracked Hades...

#

But is there any chance that there will be like giving free full game??

tulip lava
#

yikes

amber garden
#

Well... thats an intro

cloud jewel
#

i am

#

at a loss for words on that one

flat vapor
#

i-

brazen tangle
olive jungle
#

@ornate aurora There are no plans to distribute the game for free. We also obviously discourage piracy, not least beause the game isn't finished and so you won't have access to any updates being rolled out.
I understand if you don't have the money right now to buy the game, but if that's the case, you should save up and/or buy it on sale once the game is released in its full version.

#

SGG games generally go on sale pretty frequently, so if you wait until the game's full release, you probably won't need to wait very long in order to get it on sale

fringe thistle
#

holy moly

prisma wind
#

Congrats! They typically like to see mention of the (current) final boss kept to #h1-builds-and-combat though

OH NO SORRY

dry sable
#

is hades coming to steam yet

olive jungle
#

Hades will be coming to other platforms after Early Access is over, sometime in 2020

dry sable
#

guess ill buy it sometime in 2020 then

#

thanks

peak crest
#

yeah I don't think Hades is worth it right now. You can't pet the dog currently and that makes my disappointment immeasurable and my days are ruined. It's the reason why I don't give it a 10/10 (current score 9/10)

hexed smelt
gleaming crane
#

Can You Pet the Dog? would be proud of you, WonderChild 😛

hexed smelt
#

can you pet the dog was actually in here earlier

#

to clear up whether cerberus was actually pettable

gleaming crane
#

Yep, I know. That's a lot of dedication, coming to game servers to ask if there's been any change.

hexed smelt
#

people need to know the truth!!

gleaming crane
#

I always saw it as a joke curator on Steam, but it seems they're serious about doing that work correctly.

hexed smelt
#

it’s important to know which games have the most important feature

gleaming crane
#

Petting the dog is not the most important feature, though.

#

Hugging the dog is.

#

And there are even fewer games that let you do that stumptCry

radiant tangle
#

Let it be like in Twilight Princess where you can pick up the dog and walk around with it

thin beacon
#

ok but hugging and gifting ambrosia to each heads separately tho

radiant tangle
#

Cerberus has three heart tracks and they all fill up when you gift bc Cerberus has three times as much love to give

cloud jewel
#

heck what a good dog

brazen tangle
#

the final boss of hades is actually cerberus but you beat him by giving him belly rubs

#

sorry for the spoilers guys i just got this juicy spoiler from greg himself

sullen nebula
#

cerberus being an enemy does sound very probable

cloud jewel
#

the final weapon is the ability to say who’s a good boy on command

#

super effective against cerberus and nobody else

alpine stratus
#

cant WAIT to run around asking everyone whos a good boy

sullen nebula
#

can't wait to effin murder cerberus to meet my mom

granite pecan
#

cerberus would never, he is a good boy

sullen nebula
#

are you suggesting cerberus is bad at his job

granite pecan
#

his job is being a good boy

tulip lava
#

bouldy is a good boy

plain crystal
#

So I'm new to Discord is there any way to search previously asked questions so I don't piss people off?

prisma wind
#

You can start with reading #hades-faq for the most common ones

plain crystal
#

Yeah, I went through there. I was just curious about 21:9 support. I like that the game sort of supports it with the side bar images but, was just curious if there were any plans to open the screen up entirely.

prisma wind
#

It has been asked before, I don't believe there are currently any plans for that. I don't think they've given an official answer on this, however

plain crystal
#

Honestly, with the way it's been handled as of right now with the game at least taking up the full screen, I'm okay with it. I was just curious. It's such a good looking game.

prisma wind
#

To answer your initial question further, you can search in Discord, yes. On the desktop app, there's a search bar in the upper right corner. Without entering any filters, it will search the entire server. You can add filters for

in: #channelname
from: @username
has: image/link/embed
mentions: @username 
before: specific date
after: specific date
during: specific date

On mobile it should show up as a magnifying glass icon
You can also press Ctrl+F and it will jump you to a search box with the current channel filter filled in already

plain crystal
#

oh okay. Thank you for that.

olive jungle
#

zenith isle
#

gasp

olive jungle
#

ok important question, obviously you like, ares, is he your favorite so far, or

alpine stratus
#

i try but those brimstones dude 😔

zenith isle
#

brimstones is definitely not my fav

olive jungle
#

hahah

zenith isle
#

i love everyone but our mean dad honestly [hades do not interact]

#

my favorite is Ares though i just

#

love that everyone have their voicelines during wrath? like poseidon go 'Who attacks my nephew!!' and it's so sweet but ares just

#

[SCREAMING]

olive jungle
#

i love like
zag: here's some ambrosia

zenith isle
#

olive jungle
#

i love that like

#

in pyre
cyrus nemati was like this super morally upright revolutionary dude
and it's almost like he went to sgg and was like "yeah that was great and all but do you have some absolute disasters i could voice in the next game? just some real feral dudes"

#

and sgg was like "we have two actually"

zenith isle
#

AJSDLKJKLASDASD JUST SOME REAL FERAL DUDES

alpine stratus
#

YEAH HSJXHDJDHDHF

zenith isle
#

another thing i love is that when other gods mention on the boons you previously got, they usually have different things to say depend on whose it was

#

but ares is just

#

'oh you got a boon from [literally anyone]? well guess who is BETTER'

alpine stratus
#

ares is so good

zenith isle
#

[its him]

alpine stratus

zenith isle
#

@thanatos you're first

#

he's so niceeee!!!

#

alpine stratus
#

alpine stratus
#

nxnxnfjfjg "thanks zag but literally i work here"

zenith isle
#

oh thanks god thanatos can visit zag after he gets out, i'm no longer sad

alpine stratus
#

"you took me on a really dangerous ride to work"

olive jungle
#

hahahahaha we all went exactly the same place and it was "oh good even if zag gets out thanatos can visit"

zenith isle
#

YEAH

olive jungle
#

he probably needs a hall pass or somethin tho

#

i get the feeling none of them get out much

alpine stratus
#

a hell pass

olive jungle
#

A HELL PASS

alpine stratus
#

zenith isle

zenith isle
#

when thanatos told zag he wanted him to come home i was all 😭 😭

#

now as long as thanatos has some bones he can visit, yay!

olive jungle
#

god look that first interaction kills the man,

#

i need that like old guy clutching his chest image

#

mr. darren korb has this special tone i call the Soft™ voice and whenever he breaks it out my heart also breaks

zenith isle
#

'You thought you could just get away from me, did you?'
me: wow i think i left something at home, didn't turn off the stove maybe, forgot my wallet mayhaps, let's go

olive jungle
#

😭

alpine stratus
#

YEAH HHHHH

zenith isle
#

me: hahaha thanatos you nerd just admit that you want us to come home what a dork
thanatos: I want you to come home.
me: not like that

olive jungle
#

not like that

#

now you may be wondering, do these convos ever get less heartbreaking, and i'm here to inform you that no, they do not

zenith isle
#

I Am Ready For Pain

olive jungle
#

Good.

zenith isle
#

thanatos hasn't visited me a lot lately : ((( meanie

olive jungle
#

the real pain is when you run out of new dialogues though

alpine stratus
#

he baaaarely shows up for me hjfjfjfj and i do not blame him

zenith isle
#

looking at how much i play the game, i'm probably gonna reach that point very soon asdkjasdad

olive jungle
#

you SAY that

#

but i had a convo show up very late after like

#

i had finished out EVERYTHING else

#

bc it's triggered by a different random convo

alpine stratus
#

hjgvhjfhjfhj AND ANOTHER THING-

olive jungle
#

that i hadn't gotten yet

zenith isle
#

omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

olive jungle
#

AND you have to be at full hearts

zenith isle
#

i'm gonna hunt for EVERYTHING

alpine stratus
#

on a hunt for death

zenith isle
#

asdjklasjkld thank u!

olive jungle
#

i really don't know how to trigger the convo that's the precursor to it tho

#

i have no idea why it took so long for me to get it

#

others were talking abt it in spoilerchat like multiple days before i got it

#

i was resigned, i was like "oh maybe i did smthn wrong in my save"

#

NOPE just took forever to show

zenith isle
#

now i'm hyped i wanna know what that is!

#

i'd check in the spoilerchat but... must... resist.........

alpine stratus
#

youll see :3

#

and ill see too i havent gotten it either hgfchgdcgh

olive jungle
#

you haven't gotten.....the meg convo

#

but i showed you the other one

zenith isle
#

asdkl;asdklasd Solidarity™

alpine stratus
#

listen if i was a videogame man with the gift of deciding that i dont show up every run i too would be EXTREMELY sparing about visiting people who have discussed me on line

#

i do not blame his infrequency

olive jungle
#

hell. i cannot remember any keywords from this convo to look up the requirements for it gkdjfgfd

zenith isle
#

i've been trying to take a screenshot of every convo but

alpine stratus
#

oh. oh i have an idea looking at ur nickname. you ares my dad

zenith isle
#

epicgames doesn't seem to have a screenshot feature?

#

ASKDJSAKLDJKLSADJKLSA YES

zenith isle
#

alpine stratus
#

ASDASDJSAKLDASD

#

oh god thanny that's so cute

#

i really love that they call each other zag and than

#

sounds like a sitcom duo but i digress

alpine stratus
#

than confuses me bc its a real word so ive been calling him thanny....like franny

#

which is of course short for franatos

olive jungle
#

it reads ok when you hear it bc it's soft th instead of hard th but

#

in writing

#

yeah, it's confusing

zenith isle
#

yeah it makes more sense when you hear it from zag

#

speaking of which

alpine stratus
#

o?

zenith isle
#

how.... do you pronounce zag's name

alpine stratus
#

ZAHgreeus i think

#

#

by everyone

zenith isle

olive jungle

sisyphus, telling zag his backstory: should i omit the part where i asked my wife to throw my naked body into the marketplace after i died so persephone would feel bad for me and let me come back to life
sisyphus:
sisyphus: yeah probably.

alpine stratus
#

he shouldve said it so zag couldve been like awww ||perse is nice||

olive jungle
#

wait is that spoilers

alpine stratus
#

OH

zenith isle
#

👀

olive jungle
#

i'm just quoting a myth,

zenith isle
#

i thought you were quoting the myth until you asked that! lol

olive jungle
#

i AM quoting the myth

alpine stratus
#

its the

#

||persephone|| huh

zenith isle
#

wait are you

olive jungle
#

not a spoil if it's in a myth

#

yeah that's how the story goes

#

sisyphus died once, and before he died he asked his wife to promise to toss his corpse out into the market

#

then when he went into the underworld he couldn't cross the styx bc he hadn't been buried

#

and he complained rly loudly

#

abt his ingrate wife

zenith isle
#

asdjasldkjasdlkjsakld

#

nah i meant like, did that convo happen in the game too? but now that would actually be spoilers

olive jungle
#

and persephone was like "aw hades look at that poor man, his wife treated him so badly, let's let him live a little longer so he can at least get buried right"

#

and then sisyphus yeeted himself back into his body and was like "l8r suckers"

zenith isle
#

ASDJSKADASDASD

#

"l8r suckers"

  • sisyphus
#

i gotta catch up to y'all! give me uhhhhhhhhh

#

a year

olive jungle
#

a convo about it may or may not happen! you'll have to find out gkdfjgf

#

aw it won't take a year

zenith isle
#

it's gonna take me either a day or a year no inbetween

#

asdkasjdkls jk ofc

olive jungle
#

i just rly like that story and i retell it whenever i have a chance

#

it's so funny to me

zenith isle
#

it IS funny

#

feel free to tell me all the tales, my greek myth knowledge is Sparse

olive jungle
#

well ok so mythologically speaking right, not to say anything for this canon

#

but mythologically speaking, it was AFTER that that thanatos was sent after sisyphus

zenith isle
#

"mythologically speaking" fav phrase

alpine stratus
#

and THEN thannys like ok youre going back and sisys like what those chains do and thannys like uhhhh well they work like this see and sisys like BYEEEEE

olive jungle
#

kam that's incomprehensible gkdfjg

alpine stratus
#

....ok youre right

#

you can take this one ghfcghcghdcghdcgh

zenith isle
#

i feel like i'm a young orphan boy listening to The Wise Sages telling the old tales

olive jungle
#

so hades was sitting around like "hey persephone you know that dude you let go? he was supposed to be back here by now" and she's like "ur right that's weird, let's send thanatos after him" so thanatos goes up and finds sisyphus and is like "not cool dude, it's time to GO"

alpine stratus
#

im very wise uwu

olive jungle
#

and thanatos has these, like, magic chains he's supposed to lock sisyphus up in to drag him back to hell

alpine stratus
#

oh i realized where i went wrong now, i forgot to mention, thanatos has magic chains

hexed smelt
#

hades: look i'm tired of sisyphus, okay, thanatos please go drag him down here
thanatos: sure thing, i've got these special chains and everything

thanatos: hey come with me
sisyphus: ooh, shiny hains, can i take a look??
thanatos: .........okay, but then AFTER, you gotta come with m--
sisyphus: HAHA GOTCHA, HAVE FUN IN THIS BOX, SUCKER

ares: why aren't any of you dying? WHERE'S THE FUN IN WAR WHERE NOBODY DIES. HADES FIX THIS.
hades: hm

olive jungle
#

sparrow beat me to the punch line gkjdfgfd

alpine stratus
#

WE ALL REALLY TOOK A STAB AT IT HUH JHFVHJFFCHJFCJ

#

THIS IS A MESS

zenith isle
#

SADKLJASKLDJKLSADJKLASDJLKSAD

olive jungle
#

sisyphus really just put than in a box

#

and was like "ok i don't have to die now"

zenith isle
#

i'm loving all the variation of this Great Tale

olive jungle
#

but it sucked because nobody could die

alpine stratus
#

(this was the box)

olive jungle
#

long story short ares burst in and freed thanatos and sisyphus got punished gjdfhgdfkj

hexed smelt
#

literally, ares got mad because nobody was dying and it was really boring for him

olive jungle
#

for effectively halting all death on earth for like two days

zenith isle
#

me, knowing like two things about greek mythology: wow great OCs supergiant

olive jungle
#

bc that's how it works

alpine stratus
#

hjgvhjfhjfhj

olive jungle
#

if you put the grim reaper in jail nobody dies

alpine stratus
#

that rocks tbh everyone just go wild for 2 days

hexed smelt
#

i don't know which part i like more, the idea of thanatos being crammed into a box all chained up like well this sucks or ares getting mad because war's no fun now

alpine stratus
#

you ever wanted to eat lava TWICE?

olive jungle
#

it's like the purge, but instead of no laws, it's no laws of nature

alpine stratus
#

hmgvhjfjhfhj the purge but you cant die

zenith isle
#

once a year thanatos is put in a box so everyone can go buck wild

olive jungle
alpine stratus
#

thanatos: NOT THE BOX NOOOO

hexed smelt
#

or as OSP put it

alpine stratus
#

we gotta get him in there like getting a cat to a vet

Overly Sarcastic Productions is a gift, honestly

olive jungle

hi not-ven, we're reviewing why we love sisyphus

hexed smelt
olive jungle
#

gkjfdhgjdfhgjdfkghdf

alpine stratus
#

thanatos is squished under the bed yowling and sisyphus is standing with cat carrier and treats

#

hfhjfjfjhfhjgvj

olive jungle
#

if only we had sisyphus portrait so we could redraw

alpine stratus
#

if only

olive jungle
#

one day....

zenith isle
#

i can't wait for everyone to get their portraits! it's gonna be great

alpine stratus
#

yesssss

olive jungle
#

can't wait for nyx to be vaguely unsettling and sisyphus to be just enormously beefy

zenith isle
#

please

hexed smelt
#

sisyphus is a meaty boy

olive jungle
#

give us the beef, jen

hexed smelt
#

can i post the comparison ven

#

pls

olive jungle
#

the

#

the what

#

OH

#

YEAH

#

PLEASE

zenith isle
#

👀

olive jungle
#

arm vs beef

hexed smelt
zenith isle
#

OH

olive jungle
#

KGJDFHGH YEAH

alpine stratus
#

rrrrripped

hexed smelt
#

i have achilles's portrait saved as arm,,,,,.png and sisyphus is STILL beefier than he is

zenith isle
#

achilles's body is 80% arms and sisyphus is beefier.................

#

i cannot believe...............

olive jungle
#

achilles skipped every day but arm day tho tbf

hexed smelt
#

like i said. meaty boy.

alpine stratus
#

sisys robes kinda layer like. reds dress

hexed smelt
#

yeah he also apparently skipped anger management day but there we have it huh

olive jungle
#

look i'm not sure anger management would have prevented All That

alpine stratus
#

skipped grief therapy day

hexed smelt
#

he filled a river with corpses and had to be stopped by the gods before he singlehandedly won the entire war, if i'm remembering my Lore right

zenith isle
#

sisyphus might not lift but he Rolls

olive jungle
#

"my therapist told me i was valid for wanting to fill a river with dead trojans after my boyfriend died"

hexed smelt
#

HAT, WE BOTH WENT FOR THE RIVER

olive jungle
#

I MEAN THAT IS THE MOST EXTREME BIT

hexed smelt
#

didn't the river itself get mad and attack him for that one

olive jungle
#

yes

#

and he would've won

hexed smelt
#

quit clogging me with corpses, jerklord

olive jungle
#

but the gods were like "noooo no no no no"

alpine stratus
#

also noticing that achilles is p proportional full out but sisys got that cinched waist

zenith isle
#

👀 👀 👀 👀 👀

i thought i had a dorito emote but i dont but these are similar cone prism

Cone dorito

winter orbit
#

For the longest time I didn't even realize that some of the character designs were still in progress. I just assumed that everyone in the underworld wore long robes with hoods covering their faces.........🤦

olive jungle
#

oh same

zenith isle
#

asdjaskdlajlskd i thought that too for a while!

olive jungle
#

back when the game first came out i was like "oh cool robe. oh cool robe. oh cool-....wait"

zenith isle
#

cause when i first saw nyx i was like 'yeah that makes sense'

winter orbit
#

Just goes to show they did a great job even with the placeholders I guess

olive jungle
#

yeah nyx and charon make sense so i was like

tepid yacht
#

i'm still wondering if nyx's design will ever change since it feels like it works to me, though i'd be interested to see what her final design looks like in any case 👀

olive jungle
#

"ah ok they just wear hoods"

winter orbit
#

Yeah, Nyx is supposed to be the Night, so faceless doesn't even feel off

tepid yacht
#

yeet

zenith isle
#

i just realized after orpheus askdjasd

olive jungle
#

back then artemis also didn't have art tho and that's what tipped me off

hexed smelt
#

i mean, her art would totally change, but i hope they keep the hooded look on nyx and charon at least

#

like, Aesthetically

winter orbit
#

The hooded look tots works for Charon. That's actually how I imagined Charon would look like.

olive jungle
#

i kinda imagine him like a zombie gkdjfghdf

tepid yacht
#

i loveeeeeeeeeeeeee artemis' design

hexed smelt
#

yeah

olive jungle
#

SAME

tepid yacht
#

i'm down for charon zombie

zenith isle
#

YEAH I LOVE HER

hexed smelt
#

charon's actually just a dementor

winter orbit
#

All the designs have been great I think

artemis' design speaks to 11 yr old me picking up sticks and walking threateningly through the neighborhood gkjgfd

limpid goblet
#

Is the update in like 40 days ? 🤔

olive jungle
#

yeah

#

early may

tepid yacht
#

yeah there really hasn't been a bad design

limpid goblet
#

Noooice

tepid yacht
#

i love all of them

zenith isle
#

yeah i love all of the designs so far

hexed smelt
#

it's gonna be so weird once everyone has art......

olive jungle
#

that's jen for ya

#

rly lookin forward to that orpheus art too like...we need more pretty boy rep

#

everyone's so ripped

hexed smelt
#

pretty boy orpheus!!!!

#

listen in my head he's basically that fanart with the brown curly hair

winter orbit
#

Orpheus definitely seems like he'd be the skinny effeminate type

hexed smelt
zenith isle
#

orpheus is definitely gonna be pretty, you can just tell when he SINGS

olive jungle
#

technically he did go adventuring with the argonauts tho

hexed smelt
olive jungle
#

and spent the whole time mooning over that one dude

#

what was his name, ca....capha....

#

hold on.

hexed smelt
#

calais

#

According to 3rd century BC Hellenistic elegiac poet Phanocles, Orpheus loved the young Argonaut Calais, "the son of Boreas, with all his heart, and went often in shaded groves still singing of his desire, nor was his heart at rest. But always, sleepless cares wasted his spirits as he looked at fresh Calais."

olive jungle
#

Calais-

#

yeah.

zenith isle
#

awwww

olive jungle
#

orpheus goes on a road trip with famous heroes and spends the whole time composing love songs, typical

zenith isle
#

mood though

hexed smelt
#

hey now! he also played music that was so good it beat the sirens!

olive jungle
#

true!

#

very valuable skill

hexed smelt
#

but anyway doe-eyed pretty boy orpheus is very important to my heart

olive jungle
#

deep hopes that eurydice is a sassy red-type character

hexed smelt
#

i feel like hades characters fall into one of three categories: ripped, gorgeous, both

olive jungle
#

assuming she shows up

#

eventually

hexed smelt
#

i would like her to be a redhead mostly because we don't really..... have any, so far.

olive jungle
#

if she's a redhead though we'll have a problem

#

which is that, she'll be my wife

hexed smelt
#

jhfglkf

olive jungle
#

and orpheus will have to deal

#

ripped / both / gorgeous venn diagram

#

i feel like basically everyone is ripped tho

#

hypnos is the only character who isn't that comes to mind immediately gkjgdf

hexed smelt
#

i mean, there's a difference between, say, zeus and hypnos

zenith isle
#

dionysus is both ripped and gorgeous

hexed smelt
#

oh dionysus is very gorgeous

olive jungle
#

he sure is

#

my pfp was diothighsus for a month

hexed smelt
#

gkhjdfjjk it was

alpine stratus
#

those were good times ajfingerguns

olive jungle
#

eyyy ajfingerguns

zenith isle
#

diothighsus aksldjaklsdjklasdjklasd

olive jungle
#

well you know,

hexed smelt
#

in my portraits folder his filename is hot hot grape thot.png

tepid yacht
#

@olive jungle for all we know, hypnos has a tiny six-pack under his shirt

olive jungle
#

please don't that's so cursed to even think about

hexed smelt
#

he has no arm definition

alpine stratus
#

bc it all went to his abs

olive jungle
#

et tu, kamila?

hexed smelt
#

hey so here's an interesting little tidbit for y'all

alpine stratus
#

😔

#

oh?

#

okay actually i thought about it a moment and it IS horrifying so yeah. hypnos weak

hexed smelt
#

thanatos doesn't have a hades symbol on his outfit

alpine stratus
#

huh

hexed smelt
#

everyone else in the house does aside from cerberus (who is a Good Dog so gets a free pass) and nyx (who is a placeholder atm)

tepid yacht
#

good dog always gets a free pass

olive jungle
#

he does answer to hades tho, clearly
maybe he's not.....required to?

#

honestly it wouldn't shock me if than's just too lawful neutral to not do what he's asked tbh tbqh

#

or is he a neutral good

hexed smelt
#

hmmmmm

olive jungle
#

wait i was wondering about this before

#

do we define "good" in terms of helping zag

#

he's lawful but not as lawful as meg

#

so he might actually be a neutral

hexed smelt
tepid yacht
#

me, an intellectual: is this loss

olive jungle
#

kgjdfhkghdf

#

somewhere jen is like edward hopper, throwing her hat on the ground like i forgot it again. god damn it!

hexed smelt
#

funnily enough, it's the one on the left that's technicaly incorrect, even though it appears on more portraits

olive jungle
#

interviewer: ms. zee, is there a reason thanatos doesn't have a hades symbol on his outfit?
jen, throwing her hat on the ground: i forgot it again

tepid yacht
#

honestly this feels like something i would do so it's #relatable

alpine stratus
#

hjgvjfhjfhjfhjfchj

hexed smelt
#

but

#

wait no the other way might also be correct

olive jungle
#

which way does hades' moustache go

#

also thanks for giving me an excuse to stare really closely at thanatos

hexed smelt
#

pfft. you need an excuse??

olive jungle
#

ok so the moustache goes the same way as the tartarus tileset

hexed smelt
#

it's the left way if you spin it, yeah

#

honestly it's probably a case of what looks better

tepid yacht
#

i bet it has some sort of a mickey mouse effect to it

#

either that or some of the portraits were flipped when they were put in the game

hexed smelt
#

either that or eh, i'm sure nobody will look THAT closely....!

#

me, creeping in rubbing my gleeful little hands together: >:3

olive jungle
#

i figure portraits were probably flipped tbh

hexed smelt
#

i just flipped some of them horizontally and my brain is crying

olive jungle
#

KJGHDFKJGHFD

hexed smelt
#

i'm so used to them being the Normal way..... GO BACK,,

olive jungle
#

put it back dot jpg

hexed smelt
olive jungle
#

YEAH

#

hey honestly everything about thanatos is so extra. the undercut. the unnecessarily long chiton. the SIDE-SLIT? like yes we all needed to see your thigh. thighnatos.

hexed smelt
#

artemis: look now i have birds too!!!
athena, wiping away a tear: i love them

olive jungle
#

giant scythe AND giant sword???

tepid yacht
#

honestly that's my favorite kind of character

#

extra pretty and pretty extra

radiant tangle
#

Artemis: Chicks love me
Birds resting on her bow: <Cheeps of agreement>

olive jungle
#

he could dual wield too
he can hold that thing in one hand

hexed smelt
#

i still can't believe i asked for thanatos to have an undercut and he has one, truly i am Too Powerful

#

never forget: thanatos is wearing black nail polish

olive jungle
#

like, holding a scythe AND a sword would look ridiculous but come on

#

NEVER FORGET

hexed smelt
#

NEVER

olive jungle
#

god.

hexed smelt
#

"but sparrow how do you know that"

olive jungle
#

i'd gotten used to it over the past month but i'm looking again and he's just so much

tepid yacht
#

i wish all the characters had these turnarounds for cosplay reasons

#

though all of the cosplayers who figured it out without them are powerful

hexed smelt
#

i mean zag has like...... three slightly different designs, lmao

olive jungle
#

nobody knows what zag's shoulder skulls are doing and that's ok

hexed smelt
#

well. saying the designs are different is probably overstating it a bit

#

it's his bracers that change mostly

#

i was going to pull together References but i realised i don't feel like it so

olive jungle
hexed smelt
#

on the main menu, his left arm has a wrap like | X | | (hades symbol on back of palm) without any flashy jewelry and his right is the same but with only one band and maybe no hades symbol
his portrait has the same | X | looking thing on his right arm while his left has two fairly narrow bracelets but no wrap
his ingame model basically matches the main menu look

#

and the art of him in the trailer (WHICH I STILL DESPERATELY WANT IN NICE QUALITY,,) has the wristwraps but with a big ol' shiny bracelet on one arm

#

so yeah

#

Zag Likes To Accessorise

olive jungle
#

i mean he's got all those nifty keepsakes

#

zag stepping out in a literal spiked collar

hexed smelt
#

i'm sory for rambling i've probably put way too much thought into this

#

actually there's a point, what IS the pierced butterfly? i think i just assumed it was some sort of brooch because it's so shiny

olive jungle
#

i thought it was a, like, pinned insect, like from a collection

hexed smelt
#

btw i'm still mad that it took me as long as it did to realise why thanatos gives a butterfly

olive jungle
#

other than...it's dead? enlighten me, the only butterfly symbolism i'm familiar with is acoma pottery gkdfjgfd

hexed smelt
#

Thanatos has also been portrayed as [...] a youth carrying a butterfly (the ancient Greek word "ψυχή" can mean soul or butterfly, or life, amongst other things)...

olive jungle
#

oho!

#

well then

hexed smelt
#

He is usually described as winged and with a sword sheathed at his belt. In Euripides' Alcestis (438 BCE), he is depicted dressed in black and carrying a sword.

olive jungle
#

only furies get wings in hades (game)

hexed smelt
#

he's taako-ing it up

#

uses a sword as a fashion accessory

zenith isle
#

i was wondering what is the pierced butterfly too!

olive jungle
#

than seems like the kind of kid who'd have a bug collection so i just didn't bat an eye at that one gkjdfgd

zenith isle
#

at first i thought it's a pinned insect, like ven, but i like the idea that zag can wear it, when he's out and about?

hexed smelt
#

"here, have this" [drops a dead butterfly into zag's hads]

olive jungle
#

ares gives you BLOOD

zenith isle
#

KALSDJKLASDJKLASD YEAH SO HE CAN

#

wait where does he keep it

#

does zag have any pockets

hexed smelt
#

i mean it's still better than mx. "can i offer you a Cosmic Egg in these trying times"

alpine stratus
#

i thought it was like a pin....like for his chiton....

prisma wind
#

The same place he keeps his stash of Ambrosia, Skeleton Keys, and Obol

olive jungle
#

he has a fanny pack obviously

zenith isle
#

yeah i thought it was a pin!

olive jungle
#

danny devito voice but with the chaos filter

zenith isle
#

or a super fancy hair pin

olive jungle
#

gkdfhgdfkgd a hair pin...

hexed smelt
#

may i offer you an egg, son of hades, in this most trying of times?

alpine stratus
#

hair pin......

#

yes they sure can

olive jungle
#

than had an angsty long hair phase and then cut it all off and is like uuuhhhhh i don't need this anymore

alpine stratus
#

jhfvhjfhjfhjfhj YES

zenith isle
#

YES

hexed smelt
#

he didn't cut it off on purpose

olive jungle
