#

+40% is quite a lot. You're just used to it by now. squirtnya

low fiber
#

I’m starting to question the notion that FO2 actually speeds up a run

#

If this was universally true, the current WR all weapons speed run would have that option on

#

It does not

manic bobcat
#

Tbf I use it since TD and extra heat

wind nest
#

I'm about 50 hours into this game maybe more, and I still fail runs sometimes. Haven't gotten to 8 heat yet, and I have lots of weapon aspects and companions to level up

#

so I'm nowhere near 100 percent on the game, but there is also like, very little story content left

tawny crater
#

anyone completed a run with max heat on? xD

wind nest
#

Max heat is what? 49?

high island
#

I'm ~180 hours into the game, and I still fail runs. I'm pretty sure that's all of us lol.

manic bobcat
#

57

high island
#

57 should be max heat.

tawny crater
#

at some point we fail xD

manic bobcat
#

And so far only a couple runs made it to 49 that we know of

#

Krasher knows more

high island
#

@manic bobcat has cleared 57 heat.

manic bobcat
#

Oh yeah I was being modest

low fiber
#

47 is currently the highest heat that’s captured on video

tawny crater
#

never thought anyone at this point in time could win a run on max heat, congrats.

manic bobcat
#

Thank you thank you <3

wind nest
#

Oh really? Nobody's done 49? That's surprising...

manic bobcat
#

Lol no

#

It's a joke I made

#

I did not clear 57, just in case someone is looking at this conversation and missed the context.

tawny crater
#

perfect run for cast xP

wind nest
#

I would have thought someone would have pushed for it by now. I know some of the high heat people don't like it because some of the options are about limiting choices rather than increasing difficulty.

#

I also miss that the higher heat runs used to give you more darkness

low fiber
#

Lots of attempts at 49 and 50

#

There is a 50 run completed that was documented through pictures

tawny crater
#

on the highest heat runs it's needed fast fingers and most important is luck (and hard heads) almost every run is a certain lose. (thats how i feel)

high island
#

Some of the choices increase difficulty by increasing RNG, basically.

wind nest
#

i thought the highest was 49? Or is hell mode allow you to go harder?

manic bobcat
#

They add couples more options later

#

49 used to be max heat yes

wind nest
#

they added more options later as in, in a later patch, or do you need to hit so many heat before opening up more options?

manic bobcat
#

Later patch

#

You can hit 57 as soon as you have access to the pact.

high island
#

Benefits Package is relatively new.

bright python
#

Okay, but that doesn't preview what those actual contents are. Not sure if that's hard to understand or you're just whiteknighting. I can know duo boons are coming, but it's hard to get hype for vague information 3 months old

#

Like card games will announce months ahead: Here are themes we like. And that's neat, but the actual previews and spoilers are what generates hype

#

not hard to understand

#

And it's honestly fine that they're not, but I'm just calling out a really lame defense

manic bobcat
#

Erm what? You should ping the person you are responding to lol

#

Or don't since your reply seems kinda angry :D

bright python
#

@narrow hemlock

#

There

#

lol

#

It's really not, idk why logical breakdowns are always seen as angry

floral shore
#

There is no white knighting. SSG just doesn't do the "preannounce for maximum hype" thing, best get used to that.

bright python
#

And that's fine.

#

But me saying I wish I knew something to get hype about

#

Then someone saying but we DO know, look at the vague stuff!

manic bobcat
#

Not sure if that's hard to understand or you're just whiteknighting.
Mainly this

bright python
#

Is pretty white knighting.

manic bobcat
#

I missed the contexts so I'll withhold judgement here

#

But I hope you find what you are looking for.

bright python
#

But yeah, Anassi's response is a lot more reasonable and doesn't assume bad things about my statement. Like I can want something without being like omg SGG SUCKS.

#

I just wish I knew more

manic bobcat
#

Fair enough

#

We are all high and dry news wise.

#

But June is right around the corner

#

So there is that silver lining

tawny crater
#

it's just me or i don't care about new content release before new patchs arrive, we just need to wait.

bright python
#

I mean it's subjective so it can be just you, sure

manic bobcat
#

I think I would be very hyped for the Nighty Night update

#

Since they added a tons of feature

wind nest
#

@bright python I asked yesterday if there was going to be a delay of content because of covid and also I was also expecting a pre-announcement. But I got a response back saying nope, they're expecting to release. Last update was march 10th, maybe we can expect a june 10th release?

manic bobcat
#

From what I read about the June one, it's mostly optimization and platform stuff

#

So I'm tempered for new content

wind nest
#

The roadmap says new charon shop items, new boons, and new weapon aspects

bright python
#

Well I think expecting anything is probably a bad idea. The reason it doesn't have a firm date is even before Covid they weren't sure when it would be ready.

wind nest
#

I literally got a response yesterday saying they're on track to deliver and to not expect a delay

#

so we just need to be patient

bright python
#

Right, but there's no firm date

#

So the on track can be anytime june

manic bobcat
#

Within this year is full release

#

I'm looking more to that

#

Hoping for October

#

But that seems too optimistic haha

narrow hemlock
#

@bright python why are you calling me a white knight for pointing out sgg doesn't drip feed teasers, words have meanings you know

#

you cant just sling around words because you didn't get an answer you wanted

bright python
#

As I said with the other guy, no drip feed is fine. But "We already got the information" is a lame defense.

#

Especially when a chunk of the community as fox pointed out, feels 'high and dry'.

wind nest
#

Except Shoukai is just a guy, you're just yelling at a guy that you're frustrated and he told you what's allready out there

#

ur being a jerk on the internet, an internet first

bright python
#

I mean I was complaining on the internet, I wasn't a jerk until I was being patronized and was a slight jerk in defense.

vast junco
#

i really don't see how straightforwardly pointing to the trailer listing things expected to come in the june update is white knighting. that is all SGG is comfortable with sharing as of now, so that is what we have

bright python
#

Because it's patronizing. It's assuming I haven't seen the 'next update' text or the trailer. That's it. And if you don't agree that's fine, but that's how I felt.

#

Like you can say "Be patient, and not like a little kid" and that's totally valid.

#

But so is saying, look at this statement, I felt patronized and fired back.

wind nest
#

Here in the march 10th video trailer for the update that dropped the same day they teased june's update.

bright python
#

What's your point?

#

We already established that I knew about it

wind nest
#

new boons, new weapon aspects, items which I believe means new charon shop items and well of charon itmes, and new foes, and you can see the silouette of a new character

bright python
#

Right, but that's not what I was asking for. They teased that 'end of May' we would have more information and we don't.

#

I want the more information

wind nest
#

where did they tease that?

bright python
#

In this discord somewhere, forget exactly where, might be in the announcements or something.

#

Or just as a response to another complainer lol

#

May has ended if you assume they take weekends off

#

Unless it's today I guess

#

lol

rough token
#

Hey all! Our estimate is still June, as listed on the Hades launch menu. thumbsup Though thank you for the wealth of patience! We are also still safe and sound. friendly

Unfortunately I can't provide any further specification from that, just wanted to let you know the roadmap estimate stands. thumbsup

Until we can say more, I'll just lovingly put my hand on the screen when the character preview shows up in the trailer from last update. blobpensive My pleasure!

From Caitlin

#

From a few days ago

#

Patience

daring hull
#

it's in the pins in case you want to see the whole convo

bright python
#

That's not really more information on the update, that's just more information on SGG's status because of COVID concerns, which is what that was in response to.

#

If that was the 'may' update they were talking about, that's pretty disappointing

rough token
#

It was not

#

It was them saying to be patient

#

As I understand

daring hull
#

where exactly did they say we'd get more infos because i honestly didn't see anything about that

vast junco
#

i'm still not sure what you even mean regarding anything about revealing more in may

bright python
#

I'm at work, I really can't comb through discord, but I'm not the only one who's spoke of it

twilit burrow
#

Dont quite get what the point you're trying to make is Zygon

vast junco
#

i've been searching for it within the server and haven't found a single thing

bright python
#

I'm even pretty sure Caitlin's statement was in reponse to someone else saying 'it's end of may and we haven't gotten any news in a long time' even.

daring hull
#

yes because the end of may is almost june, so i think they were wondering about that, not because we would have gotten an update iirc

vast junco
#

that person was likely wording it as such because of impatience, not because anything was promised by this time

high island
#

In the mean time, we're plugging away at our next Major Update, slated for June! We'll have more details on that later this month.
That's from #announcements

bright python
#

Thank you

twilit burrow
#

I mean there's your answer

bright python
#

That's not my answer lol

daring hull
#

ah, i didn't see that at all lol
well i mean, they had the update: it's coming

bright python
#

That's the answer to the people asking where I got that expectation

twilit burrow
#

The details on that is that the update is still coming June, even better that they even say it given the current world situation

vast junco
#

considering, well, everything, i wouldn't be surprised or upset if details irt the update are delayed

bright python
#

I don't even really need an answer, my main points have been of defense. It's okay for me to be a little impatient, I know it's a rough time, but I can still voice my impatience to vent a bit. And it's okay for me to defense myself when someone patronizes me saying 'we already got the details in March'. It's really fine, they can take their time. But that doesn't mean I can't voice my feelings. lol

twilit burrow
#

I mean sure but like

vast junco
#

of course we're not saying you can't feel a certain way. we just don't really know what to say or do to appease your admitted impatience, since the trailer and start screen info is all we really have so far

bright python
#

I mean Fox and Anassi did a good job

twilit burrow
#

I don't know man at least on my end it all felt like "where's my update" "They said everything is smooth sailing for a june release, that's the latest" "no I want more"

bright python
#

"It sucks, we're all high and dry but we can just wait"

#

And that was cool

deep pivot
#

@bright python This is not a venting channel. There's no need for you to outrage at another user who was giving you the information regarding your frustration. Please, keep it cool around here.

bright python
#

I have been calm and collected in every message. I understand your point about venting, sure. But please do not falsely accuse me for 'outraging'.

deep pivot
#

You can voice your impatience, as many do, but do bear in mind rule 1.

bright python
#

We can discuss further in DM if you like

wind nest
#

@bright python I was literally the guy being impatient a couple days ago and wondering out loud in the server if we were going to hear any news this week or very soon, I was being impatient and I got back a "hey we're still on track for june please be patient".

Nobody promised a may update I'm pretty sure.

bright python
#

I'll take it to DM.

quaint wind
#

conversation is over, there's no need to continue it

deep pivot
#

Please move on to another subject. I will be taking care of this.

twilit burrow
#

I want to romance Asterios

manic bobcat
#

The first time someone romances a cow you have a minotaur

#

Wait

terse geyser
#

I don't think that asterios likes you that way.

#

at best he'd be another dusa

daring hull
#

i want to be best friends with him then

manic bobcat
#

For eternity?

daring hull
#

yes.

rough token
#

Even after death?

daring hull
#

obviously

#

Asterios bestie now! please T w T

terse geyser
#

But let's be honest, he wouldn't be as good a friend as Dusa.
Nobody is as good a friend as Dusa.

daring hull
#

but at least he could hug you

patent topaz
#

h

how dare you

twilit burrow
#

I want Heracles to kick me to the curb

daring hull
#

i'm sorry i just speak the truth

#

i love dusa so much

patent topaz
#

also aww owls are my favourite animal laddies what a pleasant surprise

daring hull
#

uwu

#

this owl digs holes to live in

patent topaz
#

don't even start making me squeal i'm obsessed by owls
also dusa could hug you with her snakes, i see her using snakes as arms and their mouths to pick up things

daring hull
#

you right, you right

#

but also he's got fur and is warmer bc i don't think dusa should be warm blooded

#

PLUS HE CAN PICK YOU UP AND HUG YOU TIGHT

#

and you can't tell me dusa and asterios would not be friends

patent topaz
#

uh valid point

terse geyser
#

her face is definitely human
her snakes are warm because they're all cuddled up against her head

patent topaz
#

than would also be cold maybe

daring hull
#

than is colder than average and zag is warmer

patent topaz
#

but! She's dead, even if she was hot blooded now she doesn't have blood anymore lol

daring hull
#

thermodynamic equilibrium

#

hmmm true

terse geyser
#

Zag dies. he stays warm smoking hot. Why assume Dusa is any different?

daring hull
#

well he's a god

patent topaz
#

so they can hold hands aww
one time i espressed my concern about if we can even touch our shade friends
like if i want to hug orpheus to i end up face slamming his chiar?

#

He just revives

terse geyser
#

well he's a god
@daring hull She's a monster. similar ideas

daring hull
#

i think you can touch them

#

hmm true lysol

#

how else would zag have trained with achilles?

patent topaz
#

he doesn't actually die tho, gods don't die... he just revives :/

daring hull
#

but is dusa dead? she doesn't look like a shade

patent topaz
#

whoo fortunately i couldn't bear the thought of not touching them

daring hull
#

mood

#

everyone needs hugs

patent topaz
#

she probably was still beheaded by perseus, i don't think she was born like this
and even if she was born like this she said the underworld gorgons aren't related to her iirc, also to be alive in the underworld you have to be a chtonic god

daring hull
#

well yes but i she doesn't look like a shade so i assumed she may have... somehow survived?

#

but i guess that makes little sense

#

given that she's in the underworld

patent topaz
#

i think it's because some of the shades like achilles and orpheus don't have a 3d model yet
look at sisyphus, he's pretty concrete
nyx also looked like a shade at first, it's a placeholder, even charon does but he's a god
kinda
... is he a god? he's def not a mortal but what is he?

daring hull
#

actually imma look that up

#

he's Nyx's son in myth

patent topaz
#

i guess he just... exists?

daring hull
#

seems he's a god

terse geyser
#

He's a minor god

#

which really just means that even though his job is important nobody worshipped him

daring hull
#

lol here i am this whole time thinking he's a rando who died and just took the job 🤣

patent topaz
#

a psychopomp to be exact, like hermes
i wonder if they will have a combined favor ||like nyx and chaos||

daring hull
#

they dating

high island
patent topaz
#

👀 👀
again with the literal sunshine/dark gloomer trope i see

daring hull
#

what can i say, i love that trope

#

plus hermes talks a lot, charon doesn't

#

Maybe move some of the lore discussion to #h1-story-discussion just in case. squirtnya
i wouldn't say this is spoiler but maybe?

patent topaz
#

oh yeah, it's all coming together

#

OMG I SAW GREG

daring hull
#

same

high island
#

Well, just the Dusa stuff, I figured.

patent topaz
#

Hi Greg : D

daring hull
#

Hewwo

#

Well, just the Dusa stuff, I figured.
yeah no makes sense, tho i think nothing spoilery was mentioned thankfully

terse geyser
#

I take full responsibility for any vague but spoilery dusa stuff that was said

daring hull
#

quick put it into tags before anyone sees

#

no one will know xD

patent topaz
#

Shhh

vale drift
#

Hey @bright python we should have some more information pretty soon about what's coming next. We're on track for our next Major Update in June. Thank you for your patience.

terse geyser
#

one has to wonder: when the devs play Hades, are they playing the nighty-night update, or the next one?

daring hull
#

OwO Lysol asking the real question

terse geyser
#

I feel like they all require significant playtesting before they actually ship out

patent topaz
#

Yes they said that in the noclip videos

manic bobcat
#

I'll play test for free squirtheh

high island
#

They don't ship out. They boat in. NO ONE GETS OUT! squirtdevious

daring hull
#

there is no escape

patent topaz
#

But is that supported? Is it already in the game yet?
The new update

manic bobcat
#

SGG I volunteer as tribute

terse geyser
#

there is no escape, even for the game itself

#

I just got on discord and alr theres a commotion

@manic bobcat wrong franchise.

...OR IS IT?

daring hull

manic bobcat

Is this the correct one?

I mean even if there's not a katniss aspect we're not in the modern era, maybe in an handful of years... squirtyay

Yes
Perfect

Looks about right

#

someone draw Hades Hades with fiery hair

I wish I could unsee that

manic bobcat
#

And Megaera as Meg

#

Hmmm

patent topaz
#

He could kill zag a thousand times with that chin

rough token
#

You know what I want to see? Hades Hades in Lore Olympus style

terse geyser
#

Hades Hades is much more attractive than Disney Hades

patent topaz
#

No please
Too much hotness for one meg

personally i'm not a fan of either hades ngl

You don't have the irresistable urge to sing along to "In Circles"?

Ok old news but at 1:18 they described Dusa as Sinister Monsters

This is unacceptable

cerberus is not sinister, he is a very good boy

Where is my pitchfork

sage marten

I mean
He’s probably very non-threatening to us because he’s our pet

terse geyser
#

sinister monsters are not allowed dusa 🔫

sage marten

He’s probably plenty sinister if you’re an intruder

#

Also where is his oar?

remote lily
#

Tbh , Im more suprised with a art style of the image than whole character hiding behind haha

narrow hemlock
#

lost in styx probably

sage marten
#

the oar bought his freedom from charon

#

he is now free

#

Alternatively
He’s charon’s equivalent of bouldy

terse geyser
#

You lie. There is no escape, even for oars

sage marten
#

So now we’ll have boons given by bouldy and paddly

manic bobcat
#

Charon gambled away his oar

#

This is so sad

remote lily
#

Like a voldemort

sage marten
#

Also blood price is a pretty good name for the update

#

Wonder how literal the blood bit is going to be

#

Styx is a river of blood after all

I hope we get to pay with health for certain things in well of charon

new charon sprite!! i am so excited

i thought i would be sad after getting attached to the current sprite but the sillhouette looks so good???

sage marten

Maybe not specifically on the well but paying health for boons or buffs would be nice

vast junco

charon's design slaps honestly

#

i love it

sage marten
#

Yeah, it’s amazing

rapid mulch
#

he looks like some kind of skeletal western sheriff

sage marten
#

the wide brimmed hat is more along the lines of odin’s sick traveller hat

vast junco
#

the elaborate neckpiece and those ornamental obols 😩 👌

sage marten
#

or maybe it’s a fisherman’s hat and he just kills the time by fishing

#

pun intended

rough token

How does one kill time? I thought time was a universal constant?

sage marten

charon fishing boons confirmed

@rough token you just find chronos and hit him as hard as possible with an infernal arm

daring hull

didn't they say as much?

terse geyser
#

Imagine an Early Access game you could put 364 hours into and not be bored

#

and yes, they said there would be new aspect (s?) in June

short gate
#

Yeah like, even Risk Of Rain 2 runs out of stuff to do once you pretty much unlock everything

#

And I love that game to death, don't get me wrong

#

But Hades is so good that I don't even realize it's early access

#

Good to hear we'll get another aspect, didn't see where they said it, I wonder what weapon it'll be

daring hull
#

i'm hoping shield?

short gate
#

They went spear, then sword, which are on the same row as the shield

#

So yeah, probably

plain plinth
#

is there anyone who uses geforce now here? I constantly spam the feedback with game requests asking them to add hades, but it doesn't seem to work. They already have pyre so I assume the devs are okay with their games being on that platform.

short gate
#

geforce?

plain plinth
#

yeah it's a streaming service for games

short gate
#

here's the thing with that

#

this next update is updating their code base to bring their game to more platforms

#

and it's in early access

#

so you're likely gonna have to wait until 1.0, bud

plain plinth
#

it's not a completely separate platform, though. you still play your games through steam, uplay, origin etc. the thing is, the game runs on a distant computer, but the footage of gameplay is streamed to your device.

short gate
#

uhhhh

#

then whats the issue lol

plain plinth
#

geforce now has to add the game and can't do without the publisher's permission, and there has to be certain amount of demand from the audience. I just wrote to ask if there were people here who wanted to see the game on the platform, so we can post some threads on the forums.

clever halo
#

I mean, if I were geforce, and admittedly I am not, I don't think I'd go pestering anyone for a pre-1.0 launch for permission. Anyone who wants to give permission that soon would probably seek them out first.

#

Granted, there's nothing for SG to be embarrassed about and I don't think anything massive is going to change between now and 1.0 (though there will obviously be some changes), but most companies I've worked with/for want to get as much as possible "just right" before building the hype train.

#

There are exceptions, and sometimes those work, but other time they're pretty disastrous launches.

vast junco
#

i think that's a fair assessment, yeah

#

it's plenty polished enough by now to be put up there if they wanted, but it would generally make more sense to wait for 1.0 first, at least

clever halo
#

Usually the main reason to hype an EA is if it's being funded on Kickstarter.

#

I haven't seen any links to a KS, so I'm assuming SG is bankrolling this one.

short gate
#

there's a reason that hades is only on 2 platforms as of right now

clever halo
#

But I haven't gone looking. :p

short gate
#

after they get on console then maybe it'll be fine

#

and they can consider things like geforce

is there a bug with action queueing with serrated edge + flurry jab on spear? I can't seem to click quickly enough to not jab after the triple strike

vast junco

i don't really take flurry jab myself but i wouldn't doubt that something like this happens. especially considering a similar thing with high rarity flurry cast, where it becomes near impossible not to shoot multiple casts no matter how quickly or lightly you tap the button/key

yeah, I haven't played a lot but I don't think it's very good, but I had nothing invested in the Q upgrades

I’ve always thought that Meg had a “dead on the inside” kinda voice, not unlike most of the cthonics and denizens of the house except for Hypnos

Oh right yeah lol I forgot what part of the game this image is about lol

I don't recall this being in the game

Seems unlikely since Hades was probably not even a concept back then when Pyre was bring produced

Well I meant it as a joke lol

#

Didn't literally mean it was zagreus

#

Just that it looks very similliar with the hair and the fact that he is fishing in what is esentially the underworld

that would probably be (Cthonic) god-level foreshadowing

#

oh alright it's canon

sage marten
#

i'm surprised cerberus hasn't gotten ill, vermin aren't the healthiest thing to eat

#

we should really stop feeding him that stuff

patent topaz
#

he does feed on the souls of the damned, they're also nasty and probably he wants something concrete to eat

sage marten
#

poor thing's gonna catch a parasite at this rate, vermin are filthy

patent topaz
#

i take that back, he purifies himself with souls
they're pretty light that should work?

#

or with pets
or he automatically purifies them in his stomach because he has chtonic origins so he's biologically used to it or just with sheer good boi force

nimble ocean
#

question, is Cerberus alive? is he immortal?

daring hull
#

i think he's classified as a monster

nimble ocean
#

what are possible difficulties for someone living without divine origin to live in the underworld

daring hull
#

i mean he's learnie's brother in myth

sage marten
#

cerberus is still alive i think

#

gods aren't the only immortal beings

#

don't think he's having much of an issue since he seems to be taken care of properly

#

the main issue would probably be both how inhospitable the underworld is in the first place and how there's seemingly no biosphere outside the river styx

#

and the rare pomegranate tree, which are likely close to the House, i.e the deepest bit in the entire underworld

#

that's assuming they get past Cerberus, which is a pretty big hurdle in and of itself

dawn tangle
#

Meg and Than's smiling faces are the most awkward smiles i've seen in ages

Good to know they do exist in hades

sage marten
#

when it's ready™️

#

also yeah, nyx does mention several of em

#

i wonder if we'll ever meet the Fates face to face

dawn tangle
#

As far as i saw nyx only mentions the ones we know + fates

#

I mean some others like eris

#

That are mentioned by another character

#

i suspect we might meet them all in a dlc

#

they probably won't fit the game at this point

sage marten
#

don't think we'll meet any of em

#

i've beaten the hydra and now i'm scared

forest grotto
#

has anyone else besides me noticed when you summon meg to kill the hydra the animation looks like she snaps the lernie's neck?

patent topaz
#

idk because i still don't have companions but sike
That's a pretty Meg thing to do anyway

nimble ocean
#

next time i'll play, i'm gonna check it

#

||strange.. i have companions for a while now, and always forget to summon them||

#

wait.. is it ok to talk about them here?

rough token
#

I wouldn't talk about details in this chat

nimble ocean
#

ok, let's be safe then

forest grotto
#

@nimble ocean you have to do it on phase 3 and time it just right... i personally wait for the 3 ground pounds and activate it on lernie's descent from the 3rd pound... almost always guarantees the hit

nimble ocean
#

ok, thanks.. should try that

forest grotto
#

no problem

hey, just joined. I started playing this game at the beginning of 2020 and it has honestly been getting me through quarantine and some really stressful art school times and I am very thankful for this game. It is incredible! Really looking forward to the new update in June ❤️ hope you guys are all well and ya'll are safe.

high island
#

Welcome!

serene smelt
#

thank you so much ❤️

#

I'm messing with the Nighty Night Update after a long break xD

#

sometimes I forget that aphridite forgets that clothes exist... and I'm okay with that.

manic bobcat
#

yep, no complain from me either. Though artemis is still best girl

serene smelt
#

artemis is an ace icon and I will always love her

dawn tangle
#

I'm sure hestia would be best girl

#

if she existed 😦

#

until then yeah

#

artemis best grill

manic bobcat
#

Weber is better grill though

#

My friend has one

#

best burgers I had yet

dawn tangle
#

weber ain't god tier grill

#

artemis is good with every kind of meat

#

but she is even better with skewers

quaint bramble
#

What about the green ||chaos|| egg?

dawn tangle
#

green?

manic bobcat
#

is your name Sam?

quaint bramble
#

Green Eggs are big ceramic grills and I can just see ||Primordial Chaos|| using one. Also no if that question was directed at me, my name isn’t Sam hehe

vast junco
#

||green eggs and ham joke||

serene smelt
#

I love the music in asphodel (specifically "through asphodel") really great job on that Darren (idk if there's a rule against @ ing devs so I'll just put that there as a... hey guys the music is great in this game 😄

quaint wind
#

those skeleton guys with the bombs are absolutely evil

brisk trail
#

Poison is evil 😅

manic bobcat
#

Can confirm. Am poison

quaint wind
#

they move so fast! and they're protected! im too bad at video games for this

idle marlin
#

I don't know why but I just don't like to sprun artemis.

laughing maniacally when i play with spear

#

Laughs in spanish

narrow hemlock
#

the worst thing about all the bomby skellybros is when you're like. inflicted with chaos curse that cuts your speed while using sword or fist. and these boney nuisances keep jumping out of reach, I've been there and it was the worst

#

me, nearly in tears: please just let me get closer I can only move so fast

novel wasp
#

which chaos curse that cuts your speed?

#

oh you mean the movement speed?

#

um, dash to win?

#

those weapons are so much better with dash strikes

narrow hemlock
#

That doesn't take away the issue of how they leap around the map a lot

novel wasp
#

first stage isnt that bad

narrow hemlock
#

it's been a long while since that happened but it's not any less annoying

novel wasp
#

the stages are so small

narrow hemlock
#

I'm talking about asphodel, those are certainly not small

novel wasp
#

oh the asphodel, i thought you are referring to the tartar mini boss

narrow hemlock
#

no lmao

#

That's not a problem there

novel wasp
#

some asphodel's stage is straight up middle finger you tbh

narrow hemlock
#

I had that happen to me in asphodel and it was major sucky

novel wasp
#

so i dont even need a movement penalty to be pissed

#

like the ones that has 1 billion island

narrow hemlock
#

now u understand why I would joke about crying 🤧

novel wasp
#

i would still be fine with it

narrow hemlock
#

it was definitely a very annoying experience, at the least

novel wasp
#

but im annoyed because i will take like

#

50 hp

#

of damage

#

just for that stage

#

and basically 80% of it is lava damage

#

this is the sole reason i hate EM hydra

#

not a hard boss but im sure i will lose a DD because i keep dashing into the damn magma

high island
#

50 hp
That's one bomb on 32 ||heat|| for me. squirtnya

narrow hemlock
#

for me it was like 'local idiot chases after jump happy skeletons while crippled in a futile attempt at progress and resigns to waiting for them to come back'

I hope by 1.0 they add more land area to em hydra, I like the fight but I will almost always dash into lava by complete accident purely bc there's never not a point where the entire floor isn't lava

novel wasp
#

50 heat you unlock Uzi as the new weapon

#

special is just you spinning around while shooting two uzis

high island
#

So basically Tomb Raider?

novel wasp
#

Yuuup

#

also you get laura cross skin

#

not lara croft cause yknow

#

copyright

narrow hemlock
#

wasn't it crof--oh

novel wasp
#

this will be a great value lara croft

#

hue

high island
#

Laura Croft to me is the one from the reboot. Who really isn't Lara lol.

narrow hemlock
#

that's just if meg had her own game. except with more violence and less tombs and relics and whatever

novel wasp
#

if you aint wearing the most light clothing to an adventure involves combat and extreme sports it isnt lara croft

#

lul

high island
#

I was more referring to her personality . . .

novel wasp
#

tbh im fine with her reboot tbh

#

at least its more realisitc lol

#

also god now that i played the original

#

i cant believe how buggy they are

#

sometimes i clipped through floor

#

and sometimes is a word i taken very lightly because that means a lot of the time

#

also my favorite part about her is that she gives 0 damn about ruining the ancient ruins even if it means she can traverse this part

#

in the earlier games

#

archeologists will be not happy about it her destroying the pillars left and right

brisk trail
narrow hemlock
#

got excited bc I thought today was june, but no it's still may unfortunately

#

who's taking bets on what week we're gettin the goods

sullen holly
#

So I made Theseus kill the bull with his own spear by lining them up nicely and he said nothing about it. I was so disappointed

manic bobcat
#

I think the silence speaks volumes on how Theseus really sees Asterius.

#

Though some indication would be nice

narrow hemlock
#

honestly I never realized they could even friendly fire each other, that's a TIL for me

#

there's probably not lines for it bc no one notices it lol

#

I doubt theseus thinks that low of asterius. asterius has his own code of honor, he's been around theseus long enough he's probably seen sides to him zag and the player isn't privy to. I just highly doubt, based on what we know of asterius, that he follows along with theseus only because theseus saved him

#

we'll see if we get more backstory tidbits before 1.0 and not just more before battle taunts

novel wasp
#

music makes zag lose control

#

400% movement speed buff

narrow hemlock
#

a yeet hermes would be proud of

empty turtle
#

do you guys think there will be a new god or new weapon aspect for the update? or will it be general stuff

lusty stump
#

there won't be new gods I imagine, but guess there can be a new weapon aspect

#

considering the past updates had at least one for specific weapons.

narrow hemlock
#

unlikely to be new gods, we're confirmed to get at least one aspect according to the march update trailer

empty turtle
#

how much did it cost to unlock 4th aspects again?

#

also which weapon do you think the 4th aspect will be?

low fiber
#

if the previous 4th aspects are anything to go by, it'll be around 15 blood to fully upgrade

#

if that's what you're asking

empty turtle
#

yeah thats what i was pretty much asking for the first question. thank you boss

narrow hemlock
#

kinda thinkin next aspect will be shield or bow, mostly bc they might just do them in order of availability, release, something. so rail and fists might end up being the last two 🤔 idk

#

25% chance of being right no matter which one you pick lol

safe sand
#

The developers said something about whether they intend to add the ability to choose clothes for the protagonist?

#

Could add some funny skins for completing tasks dusa

merry harbor
#

I can't dig up the exact thread about it, but the short answer sounds like a no.

sage marten
#

Yeah
Every single of zag’s actions is basically drawn sprites frame by frame

merry harbor
#

Long answer is, because making model changes kind of requires a lot of effort, it'd be a lot of work for very little gain, especially when they're trying to put the game through early access. it'd require them hand drawing and then making a new model for every one, iirc.

sage marten
#

So clothing would require editing (if not redrawing) said frames one by one for every weapon and aspect and then putting it as a separate file

#

Which would be a lot of extra effort and would inflate the game’s file size iirc

dawn tangle
#

does make sense

#

too much work for so little payoff

safe sand
#

Eh .. Okay. It remains to be hoped that maybe after the release, if they have time and desires, they will draw a couple of alternative skins for paid DLC
: >

dawn tangle
#

i do hope they at least draw an alternative skin

#

one that showcases Zag's nature in a better way than what he is right now

#

Hades Jr

nimble ocean
#

i do hope there will be something after release

#

that the development won't be abandoned

dawn tangle
#

would be nice, it's not like this game doesn't have tons of material to draw from

nimble ocean
#

there are solid plans for release and before it.. and none for after release

dawn tangle
#

as they say

#

we will cross that bridge when we reach it

#

they might have something, but they need to focus on release first

#

and see if making any extra content is actually profitable

safe sand
#

Well, even at the moment, Hades has become the most popular Roguelike game. And the reviews confirm this. According to the tag "Action Roguelike" it is in the first place ( https://store.steampowered.com/tags/en/Action Roguelike/#p=0&tab=TopSellers ). Because for this genre, the developers added a huge amount of content to the game and the game is therefore very replayable. It would be logical after the release to create for it also paid DLC. At least I would definitely buy them : >

dawn tangle
#

I would too, but supergigant aint famous for following their games

nimble ocean
#

well, everything happens first time

#

there were never SG games in early access

#

and continuing development

merry harbor
#

Personally, I'm excited to see what the full game will be like on launch first, and then I'd start asking for more at some point after that if they seemed interested in the idea.

#

As is there's so much for them to give us right NOW, it almost feels greedy. ^.^;

nimble ocean
#

indeed

#

well, i believe, for dlc it should be something as serious as another story with another characters, or whole new location

#

since.. it's in their style.. story comes first

high island
#

I just want 1.0 and maybe a 1.1 for a last polish, and then I want a new game.

dawn tangle
#

A whole new story with completely new characters might be a bit too much to ask for a dlc

nimble ocean
#

how about one character? with one nectarable storyline?

dawn tangle
#

Nectarable?

nimble ocean
#

unlockable through increasing affinity with gifts.. nectar bottles and ambrosia

dawn tangle
#

oh

#

what do you have in mind?

nimble ocean
#

well, i have no ideas on my own, but my friend don't give up hope on Leuce

#

i'm probably getting on people's nerves already.. with her..

dawn tangle
#

not really

#

i mean, why would you?

#

you're just expressing a good idea

#

not sure if it would give enough for a whole dlc, but why not?

nimble ocean
#

well.. my friend don't believe this idea is good enough.. like with any ideas everywhere else

#

when she tries to create something, it's either stays without attention or gets rejected

dawn tangle
#

that happens often

#

to everyone

#

it's really hard to actually get something noticed

nimble ocean
#

yeah.. i don't care much for myself, but she's taking things too personal

#

like.. if she is not good enough to be in this world.. or something like that

dawn tangle
#

that does seem like a somewhat deep depression :/

nimble ocean
#

yes.. somehow i think in Leuce's story she tried to depict her own story and the desired conclusion..

#

quote "at least in the game everything would be okay"

#

and there are a lot of people with similar problems

#

so maybe there can be some hope for them as well

So, as much as i love the base model for Zag, i feel like we should be able to change up his clothing/appearance to some degree. Could be simple reskins to complete overhauls. Would love to run around the underworld rocking some Hoplite inspired armor. Is this something we cou...
