But you do get the extra copy and the ost?

Hey @molten canopy ! Sorry for the delay - the Hades OST should appear as normal now. π
hollow coral
@fiery pebble I straight up asked my brother who has played it more than me(though unsuccessfully) and he said to restart the game which led to the currently situation when I went back in well you know it π
safe lodge
If I pay extra (no additional discount than base 20%), them yes @cold orbit
fiery pebble
If you took damage in a room, until you pick up your reward, you cant quit out
hexed smelt
pun names were mentioned earlier and i cannot take credit for mine i'm afraid
fiery pebble
It simply erases the run
If you didnt take any damage, it should work as if you save and quit
At the very least it used to
cold orbit
Then I guess thereβs no point thenπ₯
molten canopy
@chilly stump Thank you so much! You guys at Supergiant are simply the best! (oh how I wish I could work for you 
) Anyways, thanks again!
safe lodge
That pretty much costs me 7% more (100%/8, to be more precise)
@cold orbit I know right? π’
burnt pond
@hollow coral Sent you a solution via DM's π
safe lodge
I'll wait for a few days to see if this gets fixed. I want the complete collection but also want to be able to gift Pyre to someone else who loves games
inland shell
When I go to check out on Steam, it says "I WILL NOT" receive Pyre although the advert says I get a giftable one. Can anyone help?
cold orbit
I just noticed that the bear icon has three heads, you guys put effort into these puns
safe lodge
Also, I'm confused on discount - Offer ends December 17th. Get Pyre by January 02. That's some mixed messaging
inland shell
I really want to play now and leave a review and finally get into this game. Lol
chilly stump
Hey @inland shell ! If you already have Pyre in your library, that message is just confirming that another copy of Pyre won't be added to your library. A giftable copy will be in your Steam inventory, under the username tab of the launcher. π
safe lodge
@inland shell I just checked and yeah, even Personal purchase gives same warning
inland shell
@chilly stump Oh so it will be in my Steam Inventory for gifting instead?
dreamy roost
You can still gift it from your inventory, yeah
livid cargo
Hey caitlin, will there be a Q&A this Friday?
chilly stump
That's correct @inland shell
inland shell
@chilly stump TY Buying it now!
livid cargo
Gotcha thx
chilly stump
@livid cargo Not this Friday! We expect our next Q&A to be on December 20. As Unovven said π
fiery pebble
I know everything
random sable
Hey guys. Those anyone knows if the game will come soon to GOG? I'm trying to buy all my games from there when possible, but I want to buy Hades on steam now, but if the game will come to gog soon I would wait
night turret
I think Gog wont be soon.
random sable
Oh ): that's too bad
Guess I'll get it on steam then
thank you for lauching in there β€οΈ I can totally understand why go Epic first, since the steam front page is not at all indie friendly
devout plinth
I imagine they may consider othe platforms when it comes out of EA, for what itβs worth
random sable
Yeah, probably
safe lodge
Alright, I got Pyre as gift item. But not soundtrack (it also showed up in list of items received as gift). What does this mean?
night turret
Ehm wasn't it just Pyre?
digital temple
Weird question here - do I get a giftable copy of Pyre if I buy Supergiant Bundle?
night turret
Most likely no, that's a different deal
safe lodge
@night turret In Steam, on purchase page, it said both base game + OST
@digital temple Yes
I got it
burnt pond
According to the Steam page, you should get a giftable copy of Pyre with the bundle as well π
Thanks for the confirmation @safe lodge
safe lodge
But I already had rest as well
random sable
But, that's not all!! Everyone who purchases Hades on Steam during this period will receive a complimentary, giftable copy of our critically acclaimed party-based RPG, Pyre!
are you sure it includes the ost?
faint sinew
hey guys what weapon out of the sheild sword bow and spear do you like the best on this balance
digital temple
Oh that's nice!
It's just that I bought all other SG games, but didn't want to support Epic, so I had to wait for Hades. Surprised I avoided all spoilers on that
fiery pebble
In terms of poewr, or fun?
Power-wise the best one is still probably bow, or maybe spear, fun-wise Id add shield
burnt pond
I have always been a big proponent of the bow. I love it!
faint sinew
i feel like the sheild was broken when wine was the strongest
bc you could just throw it a few times and clear a whole room without even looking
safe lodge
Also calling it, next Olympian is Hestia
Based on Hades early Access showcase video
I see Cornucopia in the silhouette
Or do you think it is Demeter
burnt pond
Yeah I just looked Ichoren to double check, I am silly :p
rigid grotto
It happens lol
safe lodge
I was thinking of hearth, and hence food
But Demeter makes more sense
Guess someone is going to piss God of the Underworld off even more than the rest of Olympians. His MIL!
(mother-in-law)
fiery pebble
Its almost certainly Demeter, between the Cornucopia and the Wreaths
cold orbit
Wonder what kind of boons would Demeter give
burnt pond
Creating an area of wheat/brambles to entangle your enemies, dealing damage over time and slowing them.
lusty wasp
lifesteal was on a sword hammer very early in game(sort of) and got removed because it was impossible to balance iirc
fiery pebble
Bonus Ducks
On a sidenote, I always felt like the lifesteal upgrade was actually kind of bad
burnt pond
I still have some hope for Hephaestus and Apollo to show up, but I think Demeter is the most likely, especially thematically.
It was really good for a bit when I tried it, because you got lifesteal from some boons, namely Areas
fiery pebble
It healed on the thrust, which meant you needed to go through the full chain which comes with its own risk
And you took a damage penalty
burnt pond
You do first and second hit, then dash and do thrust
And you get a bit of knockback to keep you a bit safer.
fiery pebble
Which was at a time at which the game was reliably clearable without losing a single death defy
cedar anvil
Definitely want Hera. Hera and Zeus duo boon? Yes please.
Also Hercules.
humble pulsar
Welcome new Hades players! Enjoy the game. 
burnt pond
I mostly used the lifesteal when doing 120 heat runs, or attempting first run wins.
fiery pebble
Wasnt it gone by the time we got heat?
burnt pond
Actually I don't remember, I just remember that I only used it on difficult runs.
Which was of course high heat, and attempting to win on the tutorial run.
cold orbit
We used to have like really big number heats, then the lifesteal got removed I think
fiery pebble
I couldve sworn it got removed earlier
Either way, I didnt think it was any good on high heat either
Or rather
I dont think it would be
Since everything oneshots you anyway
pseudo bramble
is there a way to lower graphics in the files? i get 10 fps on a mid range pc
vale kite
the new olympian is red transistor coming back from the country after achieving godhood (see cornucopia and wheat halo)
vale kite
at the same time introducing stygius' Demeter Aspect which is just stygius but with the transistor's color scheme
what happens if you remove the -emet- from d-emet-er and read the remaining letters backwards? that's right. red
cold orbit
Wow, youβve got it figured out, that is solid proof
And if you take the βtβ out of stygius and add -ransistor to it, it reads transistor!
Canβt wait for that update
lusty wasp
meaning that aspect will let you pause time and plan? sounds good
cold orbit
Wretches of the underworld, take heed!
brisk trail
If I buy Hades as a gift for someone, what happens to that free copy of Pyre? I already own it, so I was going to gift it along with Hades, I just wanna know if it's been taken care of for me.
worthy cairn
quick question. is the G to pet cerberus a permanent interaction now? last time i played it wasn't like that π
cloud delta
"We won't be releasing Hades onto Steam until it leaves early access."
GG https://i.imgur.com/hQAyLO9.png
coral thistle
I mean I'm not complaining :p
brisk trail
Cerberus was made pettable a few updates ago.
cloud delta
It's more funny than it is a complaint. π
brisk trail
Maybe in August.
coral thistle
I'm guessing I have to launch Hades on the same PC as I have the EGS installed on for steam to pick up the files automatically? Or however that works
chilly stump
Hey @cloud delta ! Is that information still posted somewhere currently? We do our best to keep all information on Hades up-to-date.
cloud delta
No, I'm just quoting something from like... a year ago. π
chilly stump
@coral thistle As long as the save files are available in their default save location locally on your computer, it should pick them up just fine. π
And phew! I was worried we'd missed a spot. π
cloud delta
Hehe, nah, just poking fun of ya.
coral thistle
sweet thanks! Was gonna try and run it on my laptop, but I remembered I don't have EGS on it
(also proton compatability layer is like iffy most days tbh. it's fantastic, but sometimes it does weird things)
worthy cairn
@brisk trail awesome π π cheers!
chilly stump
@brisk trail Hey Schpoon! Just tested this out to confirm - when gifting Hades with its current deal involving the giftable Pyre copy, the recipient of the gift will receive Hades in their library and Pyre in their inventory. π
brisk trail
Thanks, Caitlin!
worthy cairn
man charon is such a classic, 'ughhhhhhhhhhh!' he said
wasn't it possible to get your uhh, violet cristals back so you could reassign them and have different builds?
worthy cairn
ah this feature unlocks after a few runs?
vale kite
yes
lusty wasp
not sure if you need to keep talking to nyx for it to unlock but a few runs yea
worthy cairn
hmn so this means the number of crystals you can get is limited, to have the idea of builds, but can't remember
always loved how supergiant likes to change the visual appearance of attacks based off of what items you have equipped. not talking about just hades, i remember transistor was the same
oh and it's a bit funny cause i was also waiting for an overwatch patch which came out today but i kinda waited for this for a year se yea, here i am π welcome to steam hades!
narrow nest
Hullo! I just dl'd the game. Just checking - "god mode" is like.. easy mode?
void plinth
Yes
narrow nest
Thanks! I've never played a roguelike before. Hope I don't need it but good to know it existsπ
void plinth
And the more you die the easier it gets
narrow nest
Oh perfect lol
worthy cairn
godmode is the best implementation i have ever seen
it also says something like "if you want to enjoy the story"
brisk trail
Narrative Modes will always be amazing.
I think the first time I saw one was in Mass Effect, and I thought it was brilliant then.
hexed smelt
it's quite clever, in my opinion, because in order to see more of the story you have to die, so an easy mode can't just make you unkillable
it's a neat balance they've managed to hit :D
worthy cairn
ahh ok that makes sense yes
narrow nest
Okay I just started and got to Athena and oh my godddd the character design π π
void plinth
I've never used it actually, when the balancing updates came out I had already bought all the mirror upgrades and was pretty used to the game so for actual experience of God mode I don't have any
fiery pebble
What does Godmode do again
brisk trail
Damage resistance and other bonuses. They increase upon death.
hazy apex
Jut bought myself a copy with the soundtrack, can't wait to play!
narrow nest
Is there ever anything in the vases? π
worthy cairn
can you still get damaged by stuff after you cleared a room?
sometimes you get coins in vases π
fiery pebble
Yes, lava can still hurt you
worthy cairn
@hazy apex the soundtracks are always π darren korb is also π
fiery pebble
And the vases that drop gold look different, and have to be unlocked first
worthy cairn
@fiery pebble ah ok, same for explosives? like the annoying small cauldron like creatures that throw landmines at your feet
fiery pebble
I think those can also still hit you
Unless you interacted with a boon or hammer
But Im not 100%
Because I havent been hit by them

Am... am I about to buy Hades a second time now that it's released on Steam π©
brisk trail
That's your call, no one can make it for you.

Lol, SGG is the only company where I've actually been happy to do that
It somehow feels good giving them more of my money
jagged badger

cedar anvil
Can you get the death defiance from Chaos? I am trying to do the small fate prophecy for all Chaos effects, but this one I am still missing.
brisk trail
Yeah, it's Chaos' Legendary boon.
lusty wasp
yea its possible - its just rated as his legedary boon so not common at all
(and it gives a dd outiside the limit as well)
jagged badger
Is that new?
lusty wasp
yea they added it this update (and made death defiances usually only restore charges but this one really gives one)
elfin ferry
I've been trying for a while now and I still haven't gotten the Chaos legendary to drop. And I mean doing runs specifically trying to get it. π«
brisk trail
Using Cosmic Egg?
elfin ferry
Yep.
Getting sad about it honestly....
I got 5 Chaos boons 1 run, but...still...no...drop.
Also, using Cosmic Egg for all 3 of the first biomes and only getting 2 Chaos gates to spawn feels bad. REAL bad.
jagged badger
I stopped using the Cosmic Egg for that reason
Or not having gates spawn from the first biome on
brisk trail
It was either the first or second biome that went by without a single spawn that I stopped running the Egg for normal runs.
jagged badger
With the other gods you at least have Fated Authority to increase your chances of finding them
Well, when you unlock it
onyx sigil
Has anyone seen a bug where charmed bothersβ projectile just freeze in space forever even after the level is over?
jagged badger
Nah. Did you 
it?

I've had charmed enemies act weird; run around without attacking or just stand there
At least, I haven't noticed if that's happened. Haven't been taking Aphrodite boons except weaken
lofty ravine
hey, i wanna explain something, connected to the OST
can i post images in here? or do i not have perms?
brisk trail
Only place direct images are allowed on this server is in #fan-works
Otherwise, you need to post a link.
lofty ravine
its not a fan work, but i think the actual image would show if i put the gyazo link
im listening to the OST with a custom equaliser
lusty wasp
if you use imgur(or other image hoster?) links for example thats basically the same as posting images in here(i think linking images from other discord servers is also supposed to work?)
lofty ravine
i just wanna show the settings
brisk trail
Yeah, you can post a direct image link, too.
lofty ravine
oh it works? i have put it in another discord already
brisk trail
You just can't directly post the image.
lofty ravine
its VLC btw
it straight up sounds like as if you were sitting in a cinema
and i have the hades OST on, on this setting
you can imagine my skin lol
idk how is it called in english
we call it goose skin
brisk trail
Goosebumps.
lofty ravine
that
thanks
every other second im having goosebumps, because of the settings
and also the song is that good lol
worthy cairn
hmn so now instead of adding boons a lot you get only a few and they can be replaced? hmn
narrow nest
Uh stupid question but do the god bonuses last only for one run? Like if I got chain lightning, do I keep it for the rest of the game or just till I die?
brisk trail
Until you die.
lofty ravine
i thought you meant god mode for a second there lol
narrow nest
Ahh okay! Thx!
devout plinth
I know they've said it's not but I really hope charon keeps his robed portrait
it's just creepy enough with the smile thing haha

Steam. Finally!
brisk trail
I'm sure he'll stay relatively robed.
It's the classic element of his physical description.
lofty ravine
they could always add an "original char sprite" option if its requested enough
but it would need some SERIOUS numbers
wary saddle
Lol didn't think that epic launcher and steams save would carry over
lofty ravine
apparently they can cross save, but i guess it would be a jerk move to have the purchase history carry over too
the separate launchers exist for a reason
it would be weird to see valve allowing that
wary saddle
lofty ravine
no i meant hades emotes

Man, good on the developers for making dying something I kinda look forward to cuz it means I can pet the giant dog π π

I'm a bit sour that Epic doesn't have cloud saves. I wanted to support SG so I bought it on Epic Store asap, but it's a huge pain not having the cloud saves. And now they've released on steam and still no cloud saves on Epic :(
brisk trail
You'll see.
worthy cairn
"back in my day..."
brisk trail
Are you playing on the same computer, Dranakar?
fiery pebble
Epic has cloud saves
worthy cairn
wait, steam doesn't have cloud saves?
livid cargo
@drowsy crow well technically if you have both versions you have cloud saves of hades on epic by way of steams cloud saves
fiery pebble
Had them for half a year at this point
drowsy crow
I don't have both versions, that's sort of the point (;
livid cargo
No i think like every game has support
fiery pebble
Im not sure theyre enabled for Hades
livid cargo
They are not enabled for Hades
drowsy crow
The info is in Hades-info
livid cargo
Well, the cloud saves on Epic are not enabled for Hades
worthy cairn
can I post a link to a screenshot on imgur?
brisk trail
Yes.
drowsy crow
Just a bit sad that after trying to support SG early they don't offer equal functionality
drowsy crow
They do on steam, but not on Epic
fiery pebble
Yeah on steam it does
worthy cairn
ah ok
fiery pebble
Thing is, Im not sure it doesnt on Epic mainly because I have no idea how to tell
brisk trail
To the best of my knowledge, no cloud saving on Epic is on Epic's part, not SGG's.
You wanna blame someone, blame Epic.
livid cargo
@fiery pebble according to sgg themselves in #hades-faq epic does not support cloud saves for hades at this time
fiery pebble
I see
drowsy crow
Well, epic has had cloud saves out for a few months now? I assume it's for the dev's to implement
brisk trail
It's not.
fiery pebble
Half a year and yeah, its not
Not sure why they havent implemented it on Hades, but they havent apparently
drowsy crow
What? Epic has to specifically enable/disable cloud saves title by title? that seems obnoxious
fiery pebble
My guess is they have failed to create an autonomous system
livid cargo
Yeh
tardy apex
is the voice acting placeholder?
in some cases?

you can claim it afaik

thats a good question - i thought it unlocked after your first victory now - maybe only for weapons you have beaten the game with? not sure
it should appear when you enter the door to start a new run, just to clarify

ugh Hades is so good, i can't believe how compelling it is to just...play more of it lol. i always feel like i should give it a good few runs each update and put it down again but..lol...
we'll see how long that lasts

The next patch is going to add new Olympian, They still write in patch notes that the last (6th) weapon coming early 2020 . So we can quess that the patch after next one.

I refrained from purchasing the game on release on EGS because i didn't want to reward the behavior of paid exclusives. I really enjoy Supergiant Games, but in purchasing this on steam how can i know that they won't go with a paid exclusivity deal again with some other storefront?
prime herald
Exactly the same thing was for me π i waited for Steam resale and bought it just after it came out. I was also hoping that I will came to GOG but I received @ in response about it that i will be probably when game will be released :/ well u cant have everything i guess

nah I'm just a bit hyped xD I just get the game I was playing a bit of "demo" which I get from bay but after completing first playthrough and few heat levels I decided that i just need to buy the game itself as if for sure its worth its money. Now i have it so I'm just jumping around on discord absorb the vibe and excitement for the game from others xD
I also want best for the game so I was looking for some bugs, some features, some ideas.
Thats it
worn gale
lol
when the suggestions channel was closed due to the too many hammer upgrades ideas :)))
I just wanted to say good job guys, been here since the beginning and I will be sticking until the end β€οΈ
prime herald
i'm not really interest in new gods, new upgrades, new skills
more like game should progress according to game progress - i already meet hades 3 time but i still dont have codex (new game, fast progress) or that the one time deal in shop shouldn't be all the time the same and have same calculation as normal deal (deal- 20 crystals for a 2 keys; normal offer key for a 10 crystals - i know that exchange dont work in both ways the same but cmon...

Thank you for playing!! π

is it possible to get god mode to 100%

I've heard it caps at 80, but don't quote me.

If I buy hades on steam will I lose my save files? Or is there a way to transfer them
brisk trail
Steam picks them up fine with no tinkering. Just start Hades and it will have the files.
slate thicket
I'd rather play on steam but losing 100+ hours of game play would suck
So that's great news haha
Supergiant is the one studio I'd buy a game twice from

Me too. I have the games on ps4 and pc.
grim wadi
Weird enough I dont have much trouble fighting meg but i always lose to hydra at its 1/4 hp
prime herald
with hydra good idea is to kill heads one by one instead of bashing all of them at once, also u need to learn which head do what - spawn enemies, shock wave, fire, etc. - eliminate the one that may cause biggest problems first
grim wadi
Theres a difference in the heads?i didnt know
prime herald
also god aid or spells use on the "small" heads there are making more problems than the main boss
yeah they are distinguished by color
grim wadi
Oh I didnt know

Has anyone beaten 32 Heat yet?
winter river
So, who else bought hades again and uninstalled epic today?
brisk trail
All the games I have on Epic run better independently from the launcher. I tried running games on Steam and Origin through a desktop shortcut but they either launched the launcher (ME3) or just didn't run unless I used a launcher (Hollow Knight).
But with Hades and Celeste (so far), I can run the .exe directly from my Taskbar flawlessly. Just gotta open Epic every few days to check for updates.
winter river
I haven't had problems launching on either. I dislike epics monopolizing titles though. Files transferred flawlessly to steam so I have no reason to keep an extra launcher installed.
TY to supergiant for having automatic save transfers. Yall are the best!
brisk trail
They're paying the devs for the licenses. Is it that much different from Valve's titles being Steam exclusive?
winter river
Yes, it is but if you wanna get more into that discussion we need to go to off topic.
brisk trail
No, I'm not really interested in hearing the reasons.
tacit lintel
i am enjoying the game so far but i am a bit curious i see i can unlock two more weapon types is that it or is there more that can be found during gameplay like how i keep finding boons from gods
livid cargo
@tacit lintel there are currently 5 weapons total in the game with a 6th one planned
tacit lintel
ok cool i just saw the bow sword and two other locked weapons in the pre dungeon area
thanks for the infor
pseudo bramble
yea the 5th one is a ||railgun with a grenade launcher||
elfin ferry
Just a shout out to all you new players:
Welcome and hope you enjoy your time with the game!
Also, if you'd liked to help influcence the games development, check out the #hades-feedback thread and up-vote or down-vote any posts that you have an opinion on...or even post your own!
Happy gaming!
tacit lintel
cool i love super giants games i had not heard of this game till now and as soon as i saw it i snatched it up
elfin ferry
Yeah, SGG is cool and makes great games. As long as they keep sight of their artistic ideals, they should do all right.
scenic mica
Just wanted to thank all y'all devs for the steam release, even with a ton of hours on the Epic Games launch, and the free copy of the soundtrack, I bought the game and soundtrack again on steam, just because I love it that much! Its wonderful.
tacit lintel
the art style they use makes their games easily recognizeable
Transistor so far being my favorite of their game

i only played Pyre in 2018 and hades now
plucky gulch
you should checkout Bastion and Transistor too 
brisk trail
does any1 get shutter lag when combat?
tacit lintel
i get microstutter at times in combat i sent a support ticket off
using afterburner this seems related to the game not using all your cpu cores correctly
humble pulsar
if you get lag (in like a specific room or circumstance that is) send a bug report with F10 (leave your discord tag in the "name" section), helps them find the issues and fix them in future patches.
tacit lintel
i am at 60 but stutters by hitting 61 and 58 before stablizing at 60
during combat encounters its not gamebreaking it just makes it feel less fluid
and cooll i can report things that way to
livid cargo
Using f10 sends a lot of useful data including system specs and your save

Bring steam controller support to the epic games store verision
chilly stump
Hey there! The Epic Games store version already has Steam Controller support - if you're experiencing issues, you can try out the solution listed in #hades-tech-fixes-old under the line "My controller won't work"
limber current
I'm travelling now, and I'm wishing we can have a Switch version. Is there any date on it? Perhaps with version 1.0?
flint jetty
Will Hades ever come to other platforms?
We expect to bring Hades to a variety of other platforms once Early Access is complete. We haven't decided on all the platforms yet.
From the FAQ
So it'll probably not come out simultaneously but rather after 1.0
But seeing how well SGGs other games did on switch I'd say it'll definitely show up there in due time
limber current
Thanks for the answer. I bought every game on steam and two on Switch. It's really worth it!
hasty owl
Wow. This is the hardest Supergiant Game to date, and I beat all of Bastion with max Idols. This game is bloody easy with the shield though compared to the rest of the weapons, but I am bloody enjoying this game. There is a lot of replay value even after beating Hades. I can't wait to see the final product.
night turret
Yup that's a fact. It got delayed with implementation of the aspect system.
crystal bolt
With the Steam release, I finally got to play a bit of this game. And maaaan is it good
night turret
I mean, it's a early access, if you wait it will only get better.
crystal bolt
That's the best part. With the amount of content so far, I wouldn't have guessed this was an early access if I hadn't known.
lean ferry
i've been playing it since it first came out and its really interesting to see how it has evolved
granite pecan
Iβve really enjoyed the early access part of the game experience. the regular updates of content feel like new episodes of a show
its strange to imagine other people getting everything at once
and yeah as far as early access games go, it puts most early access games on steam to complete shame. it already felt like a complete game experience when it first entered early access
granite pecan
depends on the size of the update. its been around a month to two months
it will always say how many days to a new update in the main menu of the game
pseudo bramble
when i increase the difficulty, do more enemies spawn or are they stronger
deep cliff
It was month in the beginning but nowadays delays are two-month long usually
night turret
Still even with how good Hades was at the start... Old dash was rightfully discarded and never to be mentioned again.
deep cliff
Eh, I kinda liked it, in a way that it was in some way unique. But new dash is definitely better
night turret
I would bet that Final Boss would be nightmare with the old dash.
Could you move that message to gameplay please?
tawny pollen
wish we had a hammer weapon
radiant tangle
There's already a hammer item, so it's not likely to happen (but I'm 100% with you, I would've loved a hammer)
rotund finch
If we do get a 3rd ranged weapon so we have 3/3 types a ranged weapon that doesnt root you in place while firing would be really cool, one that you can move with, kind of like the sword with the ranged hammer boon?
night turret
If we talking about ranged weapons... Sling would be the a logical option. But 4 variations on a sling? Eh...
sonic coral
I'd like a punch weapon, but that's just me.
rotund finch
What about Greek fire? The special could let you throw it as an aoe, the primary attack could function as either a flamethrower (more melee) or individual fireballs (ranged) depending on what they wanna do
grim wadi
50 minutes till work ends and I can finally go home and play Hades
I cannot wait man
I hope to defeat Hydra at least today
rotund finch
you can do it, I believe
night turret
Oh crap, I totaly forgot that. And given that they had experience with flamethrowers that would be exciting
maiden wyvern
flamethrower sounds like channeling
pseudo bramble
i'm guessing the 6th weapon will be a ranged weapon
sly gull
oh god I just played the game for 4 hours straight
deep cliff
I'm thinking that 6th weapon might be a whip. Whip gameplay - in games that have it - usually is unique enough
lusty wasp
good idea but the idea its a scythe like mentioned in here sometimes is also reasonable
pseudo bramble
or we have a mech
lusty wasp
unarmed would also look nice but probably not enough to also give 3 additional aspects
pseudo bramble
if they are metal punching gloves and have a shockwave then they could be good
deep cliff
||Zagreus just freakin' punches his father to death||

Sometimes, you just need that personal touch.
dark tusk
Ok i got a question regarding the Fated List: I met all the olympians gods, but somehow don't have any fate stuff tied to them. Do i have to do something in particular to unlock all the fated stuffs?
lusty wasp
you purchase the fated lists to appear on the desk in your bedroom from the house renovator
dark tusk
Yeah I got that, I mean I seem to have like one good boon realted fate and nothing else for anyone else
lusty wasp
then the checkboxes for each of the lists should tell you what is missing
dark tusk
I'm saying there is no checkboxes for the gods. There is no option at all for them
lusty wasp
or if you mean you got all elements of a list completed you just click on the list name(M&K) or when selected used whichever button is prompted
dark tusk
like on the list of fates, gods are not a option
i have one list for one god and no others
lusty wasp
there should be lots of lists(like at least 2 pages) to select
dark tusk
THERE ARE NOGT THOUGH
but there SHOULD BE
I have one page and none of them are gods
I'm also missing the railgunb. Not "It's locked", it's NOT THERE
lusty wasp
then i got no clue for the lists, sorry
also the gun should be available after you end a run(in any way) after you bought all 4 other weapons
dark tusk
ok nvm on that one then but the list is a still a issue
vale kite
You unlock prophecies as you do stuff in your runs
The entire fated list is ||2 pages and a half|| long
lusty wasp
thats sort of where the nerf hit - before you could just not use the attack and spray the room
maiden wyvern
i will try to finally finish 20 heat if i get a epic special seed to run pois/weak ... quite positive it works out
at least if you dont meet than or bull in a3 π
lusty wasp
i really dont mind the bull
but than you mean because of the timer, right? -i thought it stops for that one now?
maiden wyvern
bull has invu and lot of hp
takes longer than a normal room i think
but okay not as lethal as thanatos
lusty wasp
so the timer doesnt stop for the whole thanatos room? - i thought that was what they ment in the patch notes
lusty wasp
- Tight Deadline: countdown now pauses during Thanatos encounters (DEADline, get it??)
lusty wasp
seems like it can be a survival room with free time now
(i got no idea - i never play with timer)
scarlet hearth
i really wish Hades and Zagreus would have more banter while fighting
the first time they yelled insults at each other mid battle , the tension and cool factor went up so high
grim wadi
Oh no man, I died to the Elysium butterfly ball mini boss
i cant deal with the butterflies
with chiron
:/
proud orbit
Soul succed
That boss is super annoying if you don't have high damage to kill the souls which spawn
lusty wasp
there is a maximum number of souls tho
night turret
That's a dps check if I've seen one.
lusty wasp
with really low damage i try to stack them on top of each other and run away from them - always focusing the balls
but then i almost always go for really high damage builds
proud orbit
I just hard burst the boss as much as I can if I have enough damage
Or I'll pop the souls
Since I play hestia rail basically every run I just snipe them
lusty wasp
i find that if i dont have the damage to burst the boss i also cant keep up with the spawns - so focusing them doesnt seem to help me
vale kite
There can only be a maximum of 5-6 souls in the soul butterfly miniboss fights
lusty wasp
exactly what im saying - and if i kill them they spawn back to quickly for it to ever seem worth focusing them - so just try to herd them in one area and stay away, killing the boss imo
vale kite
Yeah
deep cliff
It's worth killing souls over balls only if you kill them in one hit
maiden wyvern
if you cant kill the butterfly without killing the adds your damage is too low
grim wadi
i have problem killing the butterfly spawns
because my special would
auto target
and normal attack isnt enough
maiden wyvern
if time is no matter you can of course kill the eyes
but especialy with bow you can kill the ball extremly fast
he doesnt move and has no invu phase
lusty wasp
what i often used to do was to kill one soul only - the one that would go and 'respawn' as the shield guy - that one is way too annoying
maiden wyvern
you memorize what eye "evolves" to what .... i envy you for your game knowledge π
lusty wasp
its not really the eye - its the location of the weapon - its the one closest to your entrance

pretty newbie question, how does dash attack work with bow? you have to charge the attack then dash or dash and then charge the attack?
want to know how it interats with artemis dash boon

With a bow you attack charges faster, but deals less damage.

i've been playing the game for about a year now, keep coming back to it, it's so good
spiral karma
Has it actually been a year since it's been out? :o
crystal moon
Is there enough content to keep me going longer than their other games?
night cedar
yup it was released in 2018
crystal moon
E.g. Bastion and Transistor were done in a few, short days.
spiral karma
@crystal moon lots of replay value
It's a Rogue-Lite, as in very replayable and every playthrough is different
I've been playing the game for a year now, since it came out
night turret
At this point? A crap-ton of content.
spiral karma
Pretty consistently
Yea, especially these days
But even at the beginning it was so fun
sly gull
is 'chamber' the same as 'encounter' in number of encounters/chambers that some items and boons last?
spiral karma
@sly gull not quite. Encouter is a chamber wiht enemies/bosses in it. Chamber can be anything like a Chaos chmber, or the chamber between levels
worthy cairn
bastion and transistor were made for story/graphics/music and not replayability i think, but hades yea a lot of that replayability indeed
night cedar
but also hades has such a great story
sly gull
yeah I replay bastion and transistor semi-annually
night cedar
such good writing
worthy cairn
and omg did they freaking excel in those areas might i add
sly gull
just because I like the voice acting
worthy cairn
oh yea i didnt say hades didn't have story, by all means it is amazing
night cedar
yup yup

All I want is more Ashley Barrett in Hades and I'll be happy

yes ashley and darren are freaking amazing
when i initially played bastion after the first day i woke up with "build that wall" in my head and wasn't sure where it was from...
iron snow
Hi, Is this game heavy on hardware requirements?
My old laptop is i5-5200U @ 2.2Ghz, 4gb RAM, Intel HD Graphics 5500
I can play Dead Cells smoothly
but some games like Grim Dawn, lags
brisk trail
Speaking of soundtracks, I think people who early adopted Hades on Epic were promised a soundtrack. Is there any info on this?
iron snow
btw, how big is the download size?
night turret
8-9 gb
iron snow
wow quite huge
night turret
I cant help you with specs but you can refund in on steam if it lags unberably.
night turret
At this point only resolution is changable.
iron snow
ah ok. thanks π
i think i'll just buy anyway to give it a try
just started dead cells like 2 weeks.. really enjoying that game.. then saw this came out today
so wanted something 'new' to follow
didn't see steam achievement... is it not integrated or there isn't any yet?
iron snow
ok thanks
night turret
There is a list of in-game ones, but that's all for now.
olive jungle
@brisk trail It should show up in your Epic library. You may need to restart the client
spiral karma
Yea, look for "Hades" in your library and you'll see both Hades the game, and Hades OST
when you download and launch it, it will open up your explorer to the folder location
jagged badger
Do I just drag the Hades folder from Epic into the Steam folder for the game to copy my save?
Cuz there's a separate "Saved Games" folder
olive jungle
Steam should use the same save directory as Epic! The game saves independently of platform
jagged badger
Oh neat
olive jungle
When you boot up your Steam copy, your saves and settings should all still be the same
jagged badger
Great, thank you
spiral karma
That's weird, because I gave him nectar and I got +3% damage
night turret
It's a random slight buff.

and in my case i cant even gift bouldy anymore π¦ - yea i did f10 this time
gifting bouldy is its own reward

his charge
were oof
i tried to dash out
still got hit
lusty wasp
yea if you dont expect it its probably hard - need to make him run into the wall or statues

You dont dash out of the way with him
You need to introduce that kind man to a wall or other pieces of arcitecture available

bought this game on steam yesterday and today my save is gone, played for 7 hours straight and now I have to do it all over again, all my progression is lost
This is the worst, I unlocked so much yesterday
void vigil
@nocturne valve please check out #hades-tech-fixes-old, while it might not be possible to restore your save, it might have the fix to the problem of not being able to save your game! im sorry :(
nocturne valve
Yeah I'm sorry too, wont replay this
empty garden
You can check if you have the save on Steam Cloud
Don't know if it's available for Hades, but still
nocturne valve
steam cloud is empty
void vigil
would you like me to send you a save with some darkness in it and not much story progress?
empty garden
Well, I only played a few hours yesterday, but I beat the final boss once. If you want I can send you the save when I arrive home
nocturne valve
No thanks, that wont feel right, I wont refund the game, but I will take a break for now.
void vigil
sorry this happened, i understand the frustration. i hope you can solve the problem in the future and get to enjoy the game again!
pure cedar
If I buy the game on steam am I able to transfer my progress there so I can delete the epic games store from my computer
void vigil
yes! progress should transfer automatically upon launching the steam version
void vigil
she has a beautiful name :]
pure cedar
Yeah!
grim wadi
I am very satisifed, yesterday I kept dying to Hydra and my goal today on Hades was to just beat it. Made it all the way up to the last stage but died to some Poison shenaningans. Couldn't reach Hades final boss but still good progress
crystal moon
Means good. Good name.
nocturne valve
Go in to 'Ransomware protection' and turning off 'Controlled folder access' did the trick, now my files save, for now. scuk tho, never been a problem for other games..

I can share if you want. Only did 8 runs, but I beat the final Boss on the last. Story wise I unlocked some stuff/characters, but I think I'm very early in the game

how did you lost save due of win update? Check windows.old / users/your_user_name/documents/saved games/hades
worthy cairn
Already seen two people with lost saves and i'm getting nervous a bit :-s
opaque breach
Enable cloud save? or is it causing the cloud save to delete as well
Either way, time to make an offline backup
empty garden
I think that if it scares you, take some precautions: enable steam cloud save, make a copy of your saves regularly
olive jungle
Antivirus software can block access to the save directory, which is a common cause of "losing" a save
opaque breach
What criteria is AV flagging the Hades directory for?
olive jungle
Windows Defender tends to lock down access to the Documents folder by default
hexed smelt
I recall we had this happening a lot early on and then it tapered off; I'm not surprised we're seeing the same 'lost save' issue cropping up again given the influx of new players!
worthy cairn
ok will remember to check the av when i get home
opaque breach
I guess it doesn't matter too much for me I only made it to the ||meg|| fight. Pretty easy to get back there.
olive jungle
There are instructions for whitelisting the game in #hades-tech-fixes-old !
hexed smelt
If you're genuinely concerned, you can make a backup of the files in Documents/Saved Games/Hades, but if your game has saved just fine in the past then it shouldn't 'lose' your saves in the future without you changing any settings.
opaque breach
I assume this is in reference to the epic games launcher since steam didn't get this until... yesterday?
worthy cairn
i did have backups of saves in the past but steam cloud saves is there for a reason really
don't mean for hades only
opaque breach
steam stores saves in it's own directory. Not the documents folder. At least I think so
hexed smelt
Not always!
Hades definitely saves into Documents/Saved Games, as does Pyre; I also own Rogue Legacy, which saves into SavedGames instead, and I also have a folder called My Games which has basically everything else I own on Steam ^^
empty garden
Well, in regards of cloud save, I checked now and by looking at the time stamp, I can almost garantee that it's the same that I have stored locally
If your cloud isn't synchronizing, you should make it happen
olive jungle
Hades is DRM-free, and saves independently of platform. You could theoretically switch between the Epic and Steam versions, playing a little on each, and the progress would save over itself keeping you up to date in both versions.
iron snow
Since this game is early access, from all the past updates.. Is there a need to start a new save?
vale kite
it's up to you really
iron snow
I wouldnt want to lose all progress of possible unless the update make it a must
*if possible

quick question, what is that small skull in front of the item i am about to get after the next room? https://i.imgur.com/l6G18iZ.png
arctic magnet
i believe it means it's a harder room (but with also a slightly better reward)
remote lily
if you see the skull with Centaur Heart then you will get 50 instead 25 health
the same about gold and resources
brisk trail
In this case it indicates a Trial of the Gods room but in other cases it could indicate a mini-boss or other challenge.
radiant tangle
Centaur Heart, not Cerberus
remote lily
ohh yes
brisk trail
Yeah you dont want to be eating poor lovable Cerberus' hearts.
It would be heart-breaking in more ways then one.
arctic magnet
we're collecting them to give them back to him
worthy cairn
Ohhh so basically something to always get excited about! Thanks!
remote lily
classic old school game aspect, collect 10 piece of Cerberus hearts to give him one big back
worthy cairn
Isn't trial of the gods the one with two god icons?
remote lily
how to improve him relation XD that could be in game
arctic magnet
yeah it is
remote lily
yes, trial is with 2 boons, you choose one and the enemies are empowered by the second one
worthy cairn
Yea and you choose one then the other hates on you a bit
remote lily
always pick athena if you dont want to mess with greatshields enemies
remote lily
enemies with Poseidon boons also are quite dangerous
worthy cairn
yoo but hey! don't you get both at the end?
arctic magnet
but at what cost
remote lily
yes you get
arctic magnet
40 hp
worthy cairn
niiiice
ah lol ok i didn't notice my screenshot was actually a trial of the gods, saw only one icon ahahaha
arctic magnet
the classic shieldarrow for the goddess athenartemis
worthy cairn
ok i hate athena right now..
arctic magnet
yeah my rule of thumb for the trials of the gods is to pick whichever god has less lethal specializations
worthy cairn
so arrows < shield it seems
arctic magnet
shields can technically send any attack back at you so hypothetically they're the most lethal
it's weird logic but it works
worthy cairn
ok so i lost but i learnt a few things: 1. seems like it changed a bit since i last played a year ago. i don't remember having 6 FREAKING TARGETS that insta-hit me and are fast....
brisk trail
Artemis is the supreme huntress. Naturally she aims for you.
arctic magnet
yeah at some point they buffed the trials to be a lot harder
forgot which update it was for
worthy cairn
yea can't come up with a 2. but yea. trial of the gods...
worthy cairn
so is dusa really into zagreus or just... like that?
radiant tangle

Is the game meant to take you back before the boss you have killed when you die? Or am I missing something?
For example, I killed the Hydra then when the Minotaur killed me, I had to back before the Hydra and kill it again to get back to the Minotaur.
timber quartz
Yep!
hexed smelt
you will always be sent back to the house of hades when you die ^^
timber quartz
Itβs a full roguelike in that sense - you play through every biome every run
(Well, the ones you survive to)

I just beat the final boss for the first time, should i play on hell mode? whats the big deal with that?
amber nova
I took me awhile to kill the Hydra and then I died on the Minotaur and had to go back to the Hydra because the Minotaur killed me
potent egret
thats a roguelike

you must make all your way back
pale fog
You can continue to play with augmented difficulty (heat), andunlockingnew weapons
potent egret
i dont know if go for heat or start hell mode
timber quartz
Iβd recommend ramping up the heat
Hell Mode is a lot of heat at once, essentially

hmn do i remember correctly that at some point, getting OUT of the chaos room also took some life from you?
strong heron
i don't think it ever did that
vale kite
nah it was only when getting in

huh ok

I think this game would be a good graphic novel

Hi guys, is there anyway to reset titan blood? I mistakenly increase a wrong weapon
potent egret
@limpid vault as far as i know, you cant. But you can buy more in the canteen
limpid vault
@potent egret btw do you know why titan blood stop dropping?
timber quartz
You have to defeat the Final Boss with more heat!

i already wondered why the purple tears only dropn now (i forgot what the name is)

when the game is so good you buy it again on steam

i have maybe 10-15 rogue likes/lites on steam but hades is my absolute favorite

damm my casts got bugged during the hades fight and they dissapeared and it was my main source of damage

Definitely should try to remember if you take boiling blood!

If Extreme Measures for the Hydra fight is enabled, is the floor supposed to be super slippery? Feels like a bug to me but i'm not sure if I should report it or not.
unkempt sleet
No, there should just be more lava and less neck.
brisk trail
The lava itself is quite slippery.

@olive jungle can I send you a PM regarding a situation? Don't know exactly where to put it or if I should F10
olive jungle
Sure!

hi everyone! just got the game on Steam yesterday, and loving it so far!
novel shadow
There better be some romance options for my boi zag in the future. This is not debatable :l
hardy nimbus
I hope they add new weapons tbh, like something similar to a whip, or daggers, something close range and quick, with a insane dash attack
(I have not discovered the weapon after the rail btw, if thats what that is)
brisk trail
One more is on the way.
mortal brook
I'm personally on team Fist Weapon
brisk trail
We don't know what it will be.
brisk trail
π GIVE π US π A π HAMMER π
Have Zag quote Chris Hemsworth's Thor. "You want me to put the hammer down!?"
hardy nimbus
Heavy weapons sorta exist like with rail/spear, and i dunno how something heavy would work.
Oh, you werent talking Monster Hunter sized hammers, lol
mortal brook
Lol just let us straight up use Daedalus' Hammer and be done with it
brisk trail
I'm thinking Cael Hammer size.
mortal brook
I can see it, or maybe a big 'ol axe
But if I could beat the final boss into submission with nothing but my bare(ish) hands? I'm not sure I'd play any other weapon at that point lol
brisk trail
Get big ol' Hades fists like the Hulk gloves that exist IRL. "Stop hitting yourself, Father."
tacit lintel
i love this game but the story is not making much sense so far
formal saddle
Asking here too because this chat seems to be the most active
If I have the game on EPIC anyway I can redeem it on steam?
if not anyway I can use my EPIC save for the steam version?
dreamy roost
iirc, save yes redeem no
mortal brook
Yeah you'd have to buy it again on Steam but your saves should be fine
sand jolt
so what version is dropping on steam? i havent played since the elysium update, so im jw
mortal brook
There have been a couple since then, the newest one called 'Welcome to Hell' just came out last week
You're in for a treat, I took a pretty long break when the Beefy Update came out same as you, and I was thoroughly amazed with how much they'd added to it, and they've only kept going
sand jolt
ah, its all detailed in the patch notes section? i saw the speedy update (?) but never read the details
mortal brook
Yeah they put everything in those notes
sand jolt
thx a million!

I've been waiting for the game release for a year now stalking this server.
Finally purchased the game. All I can say is it's So Awesome!
Now I can finally understand what you guys are talking about π
light thistle
Anyone know where the soundtrack can be found that we got as bonus on Epic?
It says I own it but no idea where it shuffled the files to
red coral
if you search "Hades" in your Epic library it will pop right up!
light thistle
Ah, it's a separate entry. Thanks!
tacit lintel
i am enjoying the game highly its a tough challenge
the microstutter makes you take damage sometimes but overall i am enjoying it
humble elbow
I didn't know this can be adrenaline pumping. My heart is racing after a tough fight hahahah

does the gold coin icon in the save slot mean anything?
brisk trail
Pretty sure it's just the current slot selected.
dark tusk
Figoured out why the gods were not on my list: You need to give them Nectar. Same with Chaos though I only have the list for his banes so far and not his boons, mean i might have to gift him a third time. (first was egg, second was list pof banes)
grizzled heath
just got my first clear, this game is awesome!

Hey, wasn't sure where to go to ask this but I figured the discord would probably be the best bet :)
I beat a boss for the first time, then rolled straight through and beat the next one, and almost beat the next one all in the same run! I was really excited until I realized that me going through those areas and completing them in one run might have skipped some of the story, which I'm LOVING so far so I'd hate to miss out on any of it. Does anybody know if that's something I should be worrying about?
brisk trail
Kinda-sorta-not-really.
If you start clearing the current build in only two or three runs it might get a little disjointed.
brisk trail
ello ello
kind pollen
but I'd still be able to see it? I'm not very far into the story yet, so I can go on a new save if I need to, but I'd rather not if I can avoid it
brisk trail
ok i need some immediate tech help
kind pollen
What have you tried to fix it? I don't know anything but two minds might be better than one lol
