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
Tbf I use it since TD and extra heat
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
anyone completed a run with max heat on? xD
Max heat is what? 49?
I'm ~180 hours into the game, and I still fail runs. I'm pretty sure that's all of us lol.
57
57 should be max heat.
at some point we fail xD
@manic bobcat has cleared 57 heat.
Oh yeah I was being modest
47 is currently the highest heat that’s captured on video
never thought anyone at this point in time could win a run on max heat, congrats.
Thank you thank you <3
Oh really? Nobody's done 49? That's surprising...
Lol no
Check #h1-builds-and-combat
It's a joke I made
I did not clear 57, just in case someone is looking at this conversation and missed the context.
perfect run for cast xP
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
Lots of attempts at 49 and 50
There is a 50 run completed that was documented through pictures
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)
Some of the choices increase difficulty by increasing RNG, basically.
i thought the highest was 49? Or is hell mode allow you to go harder?
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?
Benefits Package is relatively new.
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
Erm what? You should ping the person you are responding to lol
Or don't since your reply seems kinda angry :D
@narrow hemlock
There
lol
It's really not, idk why logical breakdowns are always seen as angry
There is no white knighting. SSG just doesn't do the "preannounce for maximum hype" thing, best get used to that.
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!
Not sure if that's hard to understand or you're just whiteknighting.
Mainly this
Is pretty white knighting.
I missed the contexts so I'll withhold judgement here
But I hope you find what you are looking for.
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
Fair enough
We are all high and dry news wise.
But June is right around the corner
So there is that silver lining
it's just me or i don't care about new content release before new patchs arrive, we just need to wait.
I mean it's subjective so it can be just you, sure
I think I would be very hyped for the Nighty Night update
Since they added a tons of feature
@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?
From what I read about the June one, it's mostly optimization and platform stuff
So I'm tempered for new content
The roadmap says new charon shop items, new boons, and new weapon aspects
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.
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
Within this year is full release
I'm looking more to that
Hoping for October
But that seems too optimistic haha
@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
Mostly because the first statement: https://gyazo.com/a0e1a07cf754720d9aeefaa961b34b53
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'.
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
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.
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
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.
Here in the march 10th video trailer for the update that dropped the same day they teased june's update.
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
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
where did they tease that?
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
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
it's in the pins in case you want to see the whole convo
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
where exactly did they say we'd get more infos because i honestly didn't see anything about that
i'm still not sure what you even mean regarding anything about revealing more in may
I'm at work, I really can't comb through discord, but I'm not the only one who's spoke of it
Dont quite get what the point you're trying to make is Zygon
i've been searching for it within the server and haven't found a single thing
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.
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
that person was likely wording it as such because of impatience, not because anything was promised by this time
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
Thank you
I mean there's your answer
That's not my answer lol
ah, i didn't see that at all lol
well i mean, they had the update: it's coming
That's the answer to the people asking where I got that expectation
The details on that is that the update is still coming June, even better that they even say it given the current world situation
considering, well, everything, i wouldn't be surprised or upset if details irt the update are delayed
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
I mean sure but like
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
I mean Fox and Anassi did a good job
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 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.
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'.
You can voice your impatience, as many do, but do bear in mind rule 1.
We can discuss further in DM if you like
@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.
I'll take it to DM.
conversation is over, there's no need to continue it
Please move on to another subject. I will be taking care of this.
I want to romance Asterios
i want to be best friends with him then
For eternity?
yes.
Even after death?
But let's be honest, he wouldn't be as good a friend as Dusa.
Nobody is as good a friend as Dusa.
but at least he could hug you
h
how dare you
I want Heracles to kick me to the curb
also aww owls are my favourite animal laddies what a pleasant surprise
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
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
uh valid point
her face is definitely human
her snakes are warm because they're all cuddled up against her head
than would also be cold maybe
than is colder than average and zag is warmer
but! She's dead, even if she was hot blooded now she doesn't have blood anymore lol
Zag dies. he stays warm smoking hot. Why assume Dusa is any different?
well he's a god
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
well he's a god
@daring hull She's a monster. similar ideas
i think you can touch them
hmm true lysol
how else would zag have trained with achilles?
he doesn't actually die tho, gods don't die... he just revives :/
but is dusa dead? she doesn't look like a shade
whoo fortunately i couldn't bear the thought of not touching them
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
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
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?
i guess he just... exists?
seems he's a god
He's a minor god
which really just means that even though his job is important nobody worshipped him
lol here i am this whole time thinking he's a rando who died and just took the job 🤣
a psychopomp to be exact, like hermes
i wonder if they will have a combined favor ||like nyx and chaos||
they dating
Maybe move some of the lore discussion to #h1-story-discussion just in case. 
👀 👀
again with the literal sunshine/dark gloomer trope i see
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.
i wouldn't say this is spoiler but maybe?
same
Well, just the Dusa stuff, I figured.
Hi Greg : D
Hewwo
Well, just the Dusa stuff, I figured.
yeah no makes sense, tho i think nothing spoilery was mentioned thankfully
I take full responsibility for any vague but spoilery dusa stuff that was said
Shhh
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.
one has to wonder: when the devs play Hades, are they playing the nighty-night update, or the next one?
OwO Lysol asking the real question
I feel like they all require significant playtesting before they actually ship out
Yes they said that in the noclip videos
I'll play test for free 
They don't ship out. They boat in. NO ONE GETS OUT! 
there is no escape
But is that supported? Is it already in the game yet?
The new update
SGG I volunteer as tribute
there is no escape, even for the game itself
Duun duun dunduun
@manic bobcat wrong franchise.
...OR IS IT?
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... 
Yes
Perfect
Looks about right
I wish I could unsee that
He could kill zag a thousand times with that chin
You know what I want to see? Hades Hades in Lore Olympus style
Hades Hades is much more attractive than Disney Hades
No please
Too much hotness for one meg
personally i'm not a fan of either hades ngl
Uh you have a point lysol
.......OwO
A very good webcomic
uwu
better, but Hades Hades is still more attractive
Wat dis
A very good webcomic
If there's a priiiiice for rotten judgment 🎤 
And at least out loud she won't say she can't beat 33 heat
sdfghjkgfd
please dont start that song i will not be able to resist the primal urge to blast it and sing to it, im honestly glad orpheus doesnt have a song that gives me this same urge or i may be ruined
You don't have the irresistable urge to sing along to "In Circles"?
(is that the right song?)
I'm extraordinarily talented, especially when it comes to keeping song titles straight.
Look at this Hades https://smite.gamepedia.com/Hades
That's Jarvan the IV Theseus
Oh, it's literally just the lament of Orpheus
I can never not sing along
Also, that's a good-looking Hades
I can't see his face, but his fashion sense is indisputable
hello charon
IS THAT MY BOI CHARON?
yup
Charon Hat
dude looks like a bounty hunter ngl
CAN IT BE
gunslinger
it's definitely charon, the guy is covered in bling
LOOKS LEGIT AF
it's Senior Charon
"Blood Price" makes it sound quite possible!
How far along do we think Hades is? In terms of story and content?
It's totaly Charon
I also think it's Charon. Skeleton dude with lots of coins.
You can see the obols strung around the neck
oh WOW that is the sickest thing ive ever seen
He looks DOPE
It's totally Charon
WILD WEST FERRY BOIII
daaaat creepy smile also
Does anyone know if the next major update will feature any new music?
yeah 100% charon with the amount of bling, still looks like he's from a western tho
charon is the only character remaining with a temporary portrait, and the update will rework well of charon as well, so yes its charon
Bandito Boatman
i love the interpretation
is it high noon?
charon incoming?
CHARON CHARON
hype intensifies
ooh baby
the color scheme looks like the process and I AM HERE FOR IT
love tthe charon hat
this is the same update that's about more boons and stuff right?
big bling bone daddy comin to snatch yo obols up
more boons, and a well of charon rework i believe
I cant wait for Erron Black from MK to make a guest appearance in Hades
that would line up with this being charon then
Hahaha
The main point was to optimise the game for porting to other consoles, I believe.
H R R R M M M
not a rework, just more well of charon items
@livid cargo m'kahn
@dark cradle other platforms are coming post 1.0
i love his hat
Yeah and this was in prep for that.
ps4 is a given, honestly given the huge demand for switch i would be genuinely surprised if they didnt do it
I don't understand all those people saying we're getting a Charon sprite when clearly it's just all of Cerberus' heads hidden in a trenchcoat
CHARON MY BOY
I DEMAND TO KNOW!
I wonder what his face is like
sorry just joined the discussion, is the general idea that the silhoute is charron or is there other ideas too
it's obviously Charpn
is he gonna say something or keep grunting
He has an oar and monies
OOOOOO yes
like the bounty hunter things
he has a necklace of obol

the obols around his neck
obviously charon
Charon looks sick
He has two different eyes too
you can get a good look at his portrait if you putt itt into an imaage program aand up the conttrast
like if it's not him i don't who it can be
listen @ 1:10 https://youtu.be/YihXPvZHcTQ?t=70
Hades is a god-like rogue-like dungeon crawler from the creators of Bastion and Transistor. Come take a tour through the Nighty Night update, and play now in Early Access on Steam (http://bit.ly/hadessteam) and the Epic Games Store (http://bit.ly/hadesegs).
and who's in a story with death and money in Hades ?
I thought that uptade was gonna be the last one
i mean, the signature groan in the last trailer when they showed it first pretty much confirmed it yes
yea big spoiler
can we finally talk after this update? :^)
right under our noses
or moan LOUDER?
awaiting Charon
that's fine ;)
Charon, take my obol
Are they really our obols if they end up in Charon's pocket eventually, one way or another? 
I like to think they're my obols. It makes me feel rich
Has there ever been "official" discussion on why Apollo, one of the major olympian gods, isn't in the game?
that's best asked in #h1-story-discussion
@warm dirge redirect to a good explanation of this by greg. very minor spoilers within: https://discordapp.com/channels/456889434672201729/477164376496013323/672881358149779486
@warm dirge its never been the goal to add all olympians or even prominent ones
sure thing
All this talk about Charon. What will Charon say? 
Charon update?!
Is this D Vampire hunter crossover? XD
charon my boi 😭
contrast tweaking etc. on the announcement image
is there a confirmed date for the next update?
Charon has always spoken my heart, his words resonate with me every time.
There'll be a specific date as the update gets closer 
does any one know when the next patch is comming in?
june.. noone knows the day
this wait is painfull
Charon looks so smooth
Soon™️
Wait where’s smooth charon
Ok old news but at 1:18 they described Dusa as Sinister Monsters
Hades is a god-like rogue-like dungeon crawler from the creators of Bastion and Transistor. Come take a tour through the Underworld in this gameplay video, and play now in Early Access on Steam (http://bit.ly/hadessteam) and the Epic Games Store (http://bit.ly/hadesegs).
This is unacceptable
The only thing she's guilty of is stealing my heart
cerberus is not sinister, he is a very good boy
I mean
He’s probably very non-threatening to us because he’s our pet
sinister monsters are not allowed
🔫
no, cerberus is just doing his job
p e r i s h

He could still be plenty threatening though
yes, cerberus is a threatening good boy
Hey kids, wanna go on a boat ride?
||without the paddle looks like he is about to punch someone||
There are boons in the back of my white, windowless riverboat
I want his hat... It's a very big hat... I want Zag to wear his hat...
can we keep the high contrast pics to spoilers just for people that dont want to be surprised before the update :/
Oh he’s wearing the same collar thing as hypnos is
It's on reddit anyway.
I'm aware, it's why I posted. :P But also, I'm letting people here know so that they can go find it if they want to. :)
All good fam
yeah i personally dont mind, its just being mindful to people that wanna wait and see when the update drops 0:
Also where is his oar?
Tbh , Im more suprised with a art style of the image than whole character hiding behind haha
lost in styx probably
the oar bought his freedom from charon
he is now free
Alternatively
He’s charon’s equivalent of bouldy
You lie. There is no escape, even for oars
So now we’ll have boons given by bouldy and paddly
Like a voldemort
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
B R O
That would be pretty cool
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???
Maybe not specifically on the well but paying health for boons or buffs would be nice
Someone brightened the sprite, it’s on #h1-story-discussion
Yeah, it’s amazing
he looks like some kind of skeletal western sheriff
the wide brimmed hat is more along the lines of odin’s sick traveller hat
the elaborate neckpiece and those ornamental obols 😩 👌
How does one kill time? I thought time was a universal constant?
charon fishing boons confirmed
@rough token you just find chronos and hit him as hard as possible with an infernal arm
@rough token with a Dash-Upper.
Which arm? Left or right?
Both for good measure
Yes.
🤜 🕰️ 🤛
Those are not uppercuts.
What are you? A joke police?
It's not a joke.
🕰️ 💪
There we go.
I tried
↗️ 🤜 🕰️ 🤛 ↖️
Add the dash, though.
Uhg
honestly charon boons would be everything
like if you buy everything in the store you get a boon free
That just makes it look like the arms flailed a little before punching the clock
|| it does doesn't it ||
For a second I was like what's high noon's guy doing there but I was like oh okay.. lol
Hahaha
↗️ ✂️ ⏰
But that's only one fist
I think we will finally get to use Blood gates in the admin room
i understand none of what these emojis are trying to convey
That would be neat
mr. high noon overwatch
No one tell
I have to keep this server other-games-free, Val lol
||Upper Cut Cronos (Time)||
|| noooo why ||
Fox.. What does that mean
Here is some mercy for the uninitated
⏩ ➡️ ⬇️ ↘️ ✊ 🕰️
Did someone say ||MERCY||?
That's a Dash-Upper.
shoryuken time
Someone mentioned Charon kills time by fishing
Someone else asked how does one kill time
Someone answered by uppercutting Cronos which is time
Why is that joke so convuluted
googling what convuluted means
I cant spell don't @ me
gottem
my job here is done
Confusion has been had
convuluted makes me think of seizures
Swan come back you're the responsible for this
I didn't say I was leaving
Not just any uppercut, a Dash-Upper.
:3
Big words can be flummoxing to these buffoons
Truly discombobulating
such verbose and erudite conversation
Yet their miniscule mental processors remain incomprehensive
:3
😔
I feel like incomprehensive wasn't the best word there
I don't understand big boy words
Groot?
What language is that in
what about κανονικοποιήση?
That's English.
Stop these words are too big boy for me
Girl words are better anyway.
My brain can't handle them
Google confirms what Fox said, and the word sounds like you expect it to be, Grok
🐱
Like someone once said, English lures other languages to a dark alley and beats them for spare grammar and loose vocabularies.
Umm
remnds me of Korg from Avengers
And apparently not loose spelling :3
I thought of groot first
Neverminding
OH
You can't have our interest and then neverminding
GHDJSBABF
Hmm
The code has been cracked
Avengers, here we come
I love having these Hades discussion in #h1-discussion
You could leave.
Very Hades-related
Mod is here act normal
I mean, korg resembles the uhh.. fat wine dashing stupid monsters except he actually doesn't but prolly the devs stopped reading at this point ||don't ban us||
dev is here act normal
Fox may have been a bit roundabout about it, but this is for Hades discussion. 😄
shuts door behind me and opens Hades slowly
the louts? Don't disrespect him like that
you could always go to #off-topic-discussion to continue this conversation 
(see i said louts, so hades)
I usually forget that that exists
but hey, blood and darkness is a curse. and you can even say it here and proxy wont Get you
off topic is a wonderful channel
you should visit more often 
Switch release when?!?!?
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.

dang, ninja'd
Lol
from #hades-faq haha
same hat
😉 thanks for the info! I think Switch would be a great medium for the game.
Fastest copy paster in the West
i would totally love a switch release
i dont have a switch, but ive seen a looot of people ask for it on the switch
ill be surprised if its not one of the platforms itll be on
It's a great console and doing a run while on the go would be fun
Good night underworldlings! Or... day. Who knows what time it is anyway. Somebody install that sundial already. 
Good night!
Night
cant wait to tokyo drift on switch
didn't they say as much?
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
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
i'm hoping shield?
They went spear, then sword, which are on the same row as the shield
So yeah, probably
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.
geforce?
yeah it's a streaming service for games
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
there's a reason that hades is only on 2 platforms as of right now
But I haven't gone looking. :p
after they get on console then maybe it'll be fine
and they can consider things like geforce
Ahh I'm really excited for this patch
I bet 10 obols it comes out June 15
Seems v likely
5 obols say june 32nd
50 obols june 50th
Close, but it'll be June 48th as a birthday present to me.
Don't even need to bet on it.
obviously it's going to come out on june -3rd
You shall someday see it through the eyes of patch progress bar.
thought i was reading an aspect waking phrase there for a sec
Oh yes back to the trailer
That trailer is naught but lies for it also calls Sisyphus a hero
Doowang
If I buy the game on steam can I use my Epic save?
yis
yeah
To the greatest boulder of all time!
Rocky from Spongebob
unlock all weapons, then do one more run
when you come back, skelly will have a convo for you
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
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
It's weird to think that Charon is one of Nyx's sons
he might not be in game, i feel at this point it's pretty unclear?
i believe there's dialogue saying he is
yeah
there is? never got it huh
i think one of the instances is in a conversation involving hypnos
I think I know which you're talking about and I think it happens fairly early on in the game as you're starting to gift nectar around
computers not on so I can't check for it since I'm on my way to bed but I wanna say its the same convo someone referenced not long ago
what are all the companions?
That's a question for #h1-story-discussion
No worries
Hey all, I'm curious: How would you describe Meg's voice? I was thinking it's 'raspy' or 'hoarse', but I'm not sure if these are the correct words to use.
overworked = D
that's one way to put it 😄
I always thought it was strained
hmm, fair enough
Furious. 

Does anyone know if the game will be available for Linux on release ?
I'd imagine so, but nothing has been confirmed as of yet for what other platforms Hades is releasing on at 1.0 launch
Alright, thank you !
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
Which always made some amount of sense seeing how lifeless the house is pun intended
hmm
So uhh
yesterday I was talking to a friend about pyre
and I just noticed
Is this zagreus fishing in the background

no it's hedwyn lol
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
How can i get permission to comment in #hades-feedback?
I feel that pretty much the things i could comment where already discussed, but i would like to try out anyway
You'll have to request it through #bot-commands
Ty
does anybody have wallpapers of the game with a format fitting for a phone?
cant seem to find any
is the silhouette charon?
yes
rip hooded figure placeholder
yeah i was starting to adapt to that rip
but also- wait
how didn't i notice Charon's boat is literally a gondola
He’s the last placeholder, pretty excited for him to be unveiled at last
@rough token read it! Ty 🤗
well, there’s the 3d placeholders as well... I wonder if aside from him any others will be in this update
if he will get the new model and not just a sprite, that is, but I’m assuming since nyx did
we might get one or two, hypnos got his in the nyx update too, and pat's was added a few days later iirc 0:
hypnos version 3 when
@patent topaz Charon be like
"When you get
the obols
from the hands
of Hades' son
That's amoreeee~"
when noone is within earshot 
charon opera when
I live in province of Venice it's so beautiful sob
he also kinda looks like on of those "psst, hey kid want some drugs?" and it's perfect for him
Yes gimme, gimme all the fast food
but also, for sounding like a zombie...
his arms are kinda buff ngl, i knew Jen wouldn't have spared him from the hot-ification
i can't wait for the purse's value to go up pun intended if the blood price upd8 expands charon's shop further
please don't up the kiss of styx price 
I’m not surprised, with all that rowing you have to be a lil buff
kiss of styx is such a funny phrase out of context
charon romance when
charon romance just completely obliterated whatever train of thought I just had it's gone I don't even remember it
for shame
your brain immediately recognizes priorities lol
we're the main character which clearly means everyone must be shipped with us
cthonic harem when
my friend actually has been sure that there can be Charon romance.. since there was an issue with Aphro's questline.. and presumably there could be a possibility of another one.. and this update is dedicated to Charon, so..
creepypasta fanfiction flashbacks pls no
it was more the sheer concept of romancing charon was such an abrupt brick in the face that I had to stop and wonder giskfnkajf
@nimble ocean check pins in spoilers, there's a tweet addressing further romance options
romantic boat travel through the river styx except he returns you to the spot you started on instead of rowing you to the temple of styx because no cheating allowed
yes, i know.. and that also means, there will be no her suggested character in the game
and idk how to tell that
“Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but your character isn’t being added”
every trip costs 200 obols, like a kiss of styx so it's like giving him a kiss but money is money
Hurrghgrgh (i like you, but 200 bucks is 200 bucks)
!?? hello?? oh my god
are you okay
me? no. never
sorry sho but let me dream
always assume I am in some form of distress at any given time. rn is crying at '200 bucks is 200 bucks'
i- now i feel bad
sorry
FJKSNFKSDK NO I don't mean bad distress, it was just so out of the blue it was the funniest thing in existence at that moment
oh then i'm happy 
idk sometimes... things pop up in my head
I've found my sense of humour only further degrades in isolation, I lost it at a post last night simply saying bed, bath and BEGONE (banishes you) so yknow. struggling.
this charon thing is ending me I need to take a walk and get some lunch lmao
lmao at least my joke was so powerful i conditioned you to take care of yourself through a screen?
that's important
i don't know your situation but here i can go out (with precautions) so yeah early night breeze is always
cool
: D
(I'll tell you a secret my motivation is mostly that my bird is hungry so I'll just feed myself while I feed him haha)
something something on topic we should give cerb a treat outside of affection nectar and nasty satyr sacks
yes.
what are satyr sacks made of anyway?
satyr sacks are full o vermin, yeah
one of the pop-ups when you feed him the sacc says it
is it like an epiphany sock full of oranges and rock hard candies?
oh alright it's canon
i'm surprised cerberus hasn't gotten ill, vermin aren't the healthiest thing to eat
we should really stop feeding him that stuff
he does feed on the souls of the damned, they're also nasty and probably he wants something concrete to eat
poor thing's gonna catch a parasite at this rate, vermin are filthy
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
question, is Cerberus alive? is he immortal?
i think he's classified as a monster
what are possible difficulties for someone living without divine origin to live in the underworld
i mean he's learnie's brother in myth
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
Meg and Than's smiling faces are the most awkward smiles i've seen in ages
maybe because knowing them for so long one doesn't expect them to smile at all
i don't think they're really used to smiling to begin with
Is there a rough idea when the next patch will be released? I know it says "June" atm
Had not seen any mention of nyx's other children until now
Good to know they do exist in hades
when it's ready™️
also yeah, nyx does mention several of em
i wonder if we'll ever meet the Fates face to face
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
don't think we'll meet any of em
i've beaten the hydra and now i'm scared
has anyone else besides me noticed when you summon meg to kill the hydra the animation looks like she snaps the lernie's neck?
idk because i still don't have companions but sike
That's a pretty Meg thing to do anyway
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?
I wouldn't talk about details in this chat
ok, let's be safe then
@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
ok, thanks.. should try that
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.
Welcome!
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.
yep, no complain from me either. Though artemis is still best girl
artemis is an ace icon and I will always love her
I'm sure hestia would be best girl
if she existed 😦
until then yeah
artemis best grill
weber ain't god tier grill
artemis is good with every kind of meat
but she is even better with skewers
What about the green ||chaos|| egg?
green?
is your name Sam?
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
||green eggs and ham joke||
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 😄
those skeleton guys with the bombs are absolutely evil
Poison is evil 😅
Can confirm. Am poison
they move so fast! and they're protected! im too bad at video games for this
I don't know why but I just don't like to sprun artemis.
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
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
That doesn't take away the issue of how they leap around the map a lot
first stage isnt that bad
it's been a long while since that happened but it's not any less annoying
the stages are so small
I'm talking about asphodel, those are certainly not small
oh the asphodel, i thought you are referring to the tartar mini boss
some asphodel's stage is straight up middle finger you tbh
I had that happen to me in asphodel and it was major sucky
so i dont even need a movement penalty to be pissed
like the ones that has 1 billion island
now u understand why I would joke about crying 🤧
i would still be fine with it
it was definitely a very annoying experience, at the least
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
50 hp
That's one bomb on 32 ||heat|| for me.
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
50 heat you unlock Uzi as the new weapon
special is just you spinning around while shooting two uzis
So basically Tomb Raider?
wasn't it crof--oh
Laura Croft to me is the one from the reboot. Who really isn't Lara lol.
that's just if meg had her own game. except with more violence and less tombs and relics and whatever
if you aint wearing the most light clothing to an adventure involves combat and extreme sports it isnt lara croft
lul
I was more referring to her personality . . .
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
don’t wanna ruin your fun but this seems like a convo for #off-topic-discussion !
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
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
I think the silence speaks volumes on how Theseus really sees Asterius.
Though some indication would be nice
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
a yeet hermes would be proud of
do you guys think there will be a new god or new weapon aspect for the update? or will it be general stuff
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.
unlikely to be new gods, we're confirmed to get at least one aspect according to the march update trailer
how much did it cost to unlock 4th aspects again?
also which weapon do you think the 4th aspect will be?
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
yeah thats what i was pretty much asking for the first question. thank you boss
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
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 
I can't dig up the exact thread about it, but the short answer sounds like a no.
Yeah
Every single of zag’s actions is basically drawn sprites frame by frame
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.
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
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
: >
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
i do hope there will be something after release
that the development won't be abandoned
would be nice, it's not like this game doesn't have tons of material to draw from
there are solid plans for release and before it.. and none for after release
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
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 : >
I would too, but supergigant aint famous for following their games
well, everything happens first time
there were never SG games in early access
and continuing development
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. ^.^;
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
I just want 1.0 and maybe a 1.1 for a last polish, and then I want a new game.
A whole new story with completely new characters might be a bit too much to ask for a dlc
how about one character? with one nectarable storyline?
Nectarable?
unlockable through increasing affinity with gifts.. nectar bottles and ambrosia
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..
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?
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
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
that does seem like a somewhat deep depression :/
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
this conversation is great and all, but more suitable for #off-topic-discussion
