Well you love em for a reason right?
This is my first game from SuperGiant, pretty damn good first impressions
ive got another hades question, but it's involving the soundtrack. i wanted to get all the different versions of good riddance and i can't find a download of good riddance orpheus solo. it's not on itunes or bandcamp. anyone know where i can purchase it?
There is in game
||Orpheus does sing it in game||
Ty!
its on youtube, and there is a non downloadable/unpurchase-able verson on bandcamp.
Nope
Since the way hades creates seeds differs by each room rather then run
I think it'd be complicated
was confused since on speedrun./com there are two options for any heat, seeded or unseeded
I assume that is via routing
hmm
IIRC there are mods that let you change rules on the fly
Consider seeded like TAS - a theoretically base-possible outcome
thanks
I think seed vs unseed really means route vs unrouted.
hmm thenks
I'm kinda at the point where the first two biomes are kinda like easy-boring and the third biome is reasonable difficulty but i still can't beat the final boss so I'm just kinda... mindlessly smashing buttons for half of a run
Yeah I know that feeling
Elysium is always a vibe check
Can't wait to unlock heat
No matter the heat
You got this
I was pretty pleasantly surprised with how difficult the final boss is, bit too used to playing Izaac and destroying mom
Also love how there never seems to be a stage where your too op
I recommend heat ||Extreme Measures|| for a 5 gum experience.
Stimulate your senses
lol
I'm normally not a fan of mirror-like mechanics in roguelikes but I think heat balances it out
Yeah, since there is a literal pact that just removes the mirror
ha, yeah
Routine inspection has me crying 😔
Does it also remove keepsakes and stuff?
Thankfully no
No
I'd throw hands if it did
RI4 is arguably the hardest 12 heat you can do.
Slap on stygius and its almost a fresh-file run but with extra steps
True, although you get dash distance attack speed
God I will miss the broken mess that was old Zag Sword xD
Haha, sword go brr
Not that I ever use it
I used it ||to kill Skelly||.
is there a way to report bugs from the switch version?
because ||than|| is invisible rn
He's shy today huh
Through either the contact us page on their website or #h1-tech-support
I'm progressing too fast on my switch file for the dialogue to keep up >.>
"i heard you beat the bone hydra" you don't say
Lmao I had Poseidon say "I heard you made it to Asphodel last time" after my 50th escape and I'm just like bruh
YEAH
Technically corect though
It's like saying I used to suck at this game. I mean I still do, but I used to, too.
does last stand give you a death defiance if you haven't used one yet?
No sadly 😔
lame
Replenish. Can't replenish if you don't lose none.
yeah that's why i asked
I was being facetious also :D
Ngl I do miss the old t-pose animation for the sword

Nice
Wait really?
quite a few characters share voice actors
Huh, I’d wondered about that especially with Zeus Poseidon and Hades
Well Brothers, right?
Guess that makes sense
Zeus and Chaos are voiced by the same actor, but he didn’t do Poseidon and Hades’ voices
does giving nectar to hades still do nothing?
hello, can someone explain the Decorative Themes from the house contractor to me? i dont see where they come into effect O_O
MacBook pro...Why does i see only very low resolution options? Like 1200x800? In bootcamp i used to see also 3k x 2800 (something like that....)
Skelly and Zag are both voiced by Darren, and have conversations with each other
Yo I'm so not used to seeing so many white names in this server 
So many new people
I'm so happy
How come the final aspects for the weapons are almost always one of the best aspects except for bow?
I mean that's debatable
4th aspect names are spoilers here?
Did they make changes to it?
Only....L aspect IIRC
||Rama|| makes me cry
I haven’t tested since it’s release
And probably thr nee fist
My most successful runs have been with rama recently
I wouldn’t call it outright bad but it’s power level is on par with the other bow aspects
Yeah, the thing about 4th bow aspect is that ability triggers on the enemies that have it, including the one you shot
So if you hit a single enemily with the special and then shoot them, you do attack damage +70% from shared pain
If you go to other weapons like spear and try to have as successful of a run on final aspect as the others (at high heat) would be noticeably more difficult
Just shoot special at one enemy, but use attack against somebody who's in the opposite corner of the room. ||Rama|| has a unique ability to damage dangerous enemies without risking coming close to them
When you say high heat, whats your ballpark figure of it?
I meant for Ex
At least over 30
There was a poster who ran Rama at high heat and swore by it.
One way to approach Rama is to think of it like a melee weapon
Hit them with special, dash up and shoot
Get some good famage started early
How close would you say it’s damage potential is to basic bow?
hello, can someone explain the Decorative Themes from the house contractor to me? i dont see where they come into effect O_O
@mellow summit
i would still love to know this 😅
UI changes during runs.
@marsh jackal I wouldnt know how to answer that question. Check out the higj heat channel. People there will give you better insight.
@mellow summit It changes up the UI for your runs and thus the victory screen as well
man, it's weird having to play through on a new save file. got to the third zone on my second run this time, but by that point i was just way too weak to have a chance since i had basically no base upgrades

How is it you do the spoiler thing? Not sure of something happening to me in my game towards the end is a bug and I'm currently on mobile and can't find the pinned discord commands.
Put your words between the characters in the following parenthesis:
" || "
Right in between those two slashes.
Wait
I stand corrected.
You need two sets of the symbol
Im bad at explaining
Cool, gonna test ||test||
OK, so end game spoilers ||I'm at the point where the queen is back and you can give hades nectar. However, hades is currently stuck at three hearts. There's no lock on the next heart, I have nectar in my possession always, but never seen to be able to give him this. Do I just maybe need to progress the other characters more? This is a fresh save on the switch version. ||
I don't know who implemented this feature, but thank you @cloud arch, @stoic surge, @main magnet... for letting the game pause automatically when your controller disconnects :D
That must be new for 1.0 and has saved my butt a few times already
Heh. Whenever Rama is mentioned, I think of Rama U80-A. 😔
Nevermind me, a full game restart fixed it.
I have to say EM4 is so brutal. I was like "how bad can it be... Where did my health go" Definitely a true stepup, it was amazing
||Man I got to hades but I cant beat him prolly coulda with an extra life but dang||
@coral jewel
Uhhh spoiler?
Is it tho?
I wonder, if you played all the voice lines in this game, one after another, what the runtime would end up being. I'm blown away by the sheer amount of content in this game, how little things repeat after so many runs.
15 hours into 1.0 now, game still won't give me the final encounter to unlock the hidden fist aspect. I don't know who thought this was a good idea.
I'm personally a fan of delayed gratification.
Yes @coral jewel final boss is a spoiler in this channel
have u got the fight me barehanded dialogue? @plush raptor
@twilit isle please spoiler tag the quoted line. Ty ^_^
Yes, I already got that.
But I'm just not getting the encounter anymore. Just the other one. For hours. And hours. And hours.
It's just rng, it took me a while too get it as well
just got it on the last run T_T
And I'm saying it was a bad decision to lock this behind an encounter that just might not happen for 10 or 15 or 20 runs.
At least skew the odds while the unlock hinges on it.
Also, there's a special place in Asphodel for people who think typing "it's just rng" is in any way helpful or clever.
Welcome to rogue-likes and rogue-lites as a genre
Where like it or not, RNG is a thing
Though RNG manips are possible, I don't undersrand how they work nor am I gonna pretend I do
Anyone have tips for doing a successful run with the fist weapons? I'm mainly used to the bow and rail so fighting up close is something I'm not used to.
Try to keep on the move, dash through opponents to target their backs. Personally Talos Aspect is my preferred for the ability to pull enemies targets to make up for the lack of range
Oops. I'll post over there then.
Also, Athena Attack is arguably broken
Hi, been watching this game on Twitch maaaaaan its cool!
Welcome on in Elena 
Thanks!!😋
Hi. Anyone has the latest boon relationship infographic?
There are specific gods one but there is no overall view
Where do I use titan blood at? New to this game haha
you can unlock weapon aspects that change how weapons are used in a little bit
won’t take too long really
Ahh and do I have to unlock that in some way??
nope, you just have to do like a couple more runs iirc
then they’ll give you the ability to mess with aspects
Gotcha thanks
np man
Who are the romance options in the game
||megaera, thanatos and dusa||
if i were to guess these would be the ones
Just picked up the game over the weekend, didn't play in early access. Gotta say this is one of the most amazing games I've played in years. Everyone at Supergiant should be super proud of what they've done here!
I know, right? I'm not usually a fan of these games, but this is amazing
played all sunday
So did I!
i bought it as soon as it launched on steam. really good game.
i heard about it from sin
i actually bought it after getting bored from mario 3d collection
Nintendo made a good deal with the limited exclusivity on this game
When I first saw the trailer, I wasn't impressed, but it just grew on me
Hades caught my eye since it was announced at E3 2018. that art style...
Art style and voice acting is top notch
Definitely
yup, voice acting is so good too
So, with the Switch version. Has anyone else noticed this weird graphical quirk in docked mode where it looks like the resolution is constantly shifting up/down?
It's especially noticeable when characters are speaking. You'll see the text and everything else on the screen toggling between being soft and sharp every second.
Not on switch but I swear zagreus’s resolution is soft at times but the rest of the game is sharp
No it's all good on my Switch. Only thing I've noticed is a bit of slowdown when there's a lot going on, but I guess that's to be expected.
All of the character sprites look soft compared to the environment @brisk trail
do they? kinda bugs me
Must be the way their pre-rendered sprites are compressed or captured.
It's not ideal, but it has always been that way even on PC.
oh i've been playing this game like a full time job since the switch version released
and now i am burnt out
oops
Did you notice the soft/sharp toggling thing I mentioned on Switch?
Keep an eye out for it when characters and their speech bubbles are on screen next time you play docked.
hey, how is poseidon aspect for sword?
Pretty fun.
The basic build is Artemis cast boon and then going artemis until you get exit wounds.
With exit wounds, cracking an enemy with poseidon will trigger exit wounds forcibly. Good times.
do you know how to unlock superior trove?
I got plunder, greater but contractor won't offer it
I wanna say its in the wiki
according to the wiki it should be unlocked
You'll get either a dialogue RNG that opens up a new buy optio
Or the new buy optiom for higher end contractor stuff shows up. Been a few 100 hours since I did all that.
Gotta make your way through all the upgrades
If you bought all of the early stuff and it hasnt shown uo, just do a few runs and it'll eventually kick in.
I had a question about getting the Friends Forever achievement at the moment. I know it's been bugged the past few days and people were getting it for free upon starting a new game.
However I am wondering if you're still able to get it the legitimate way by maxing all the keepsakes? It's one of my last achievements left and I have every keepsake (including the 2 new ones that dropped with 1.0) at 3 stars. I do not have maxed bonds with ||Persephone|| or ||Demeter|| yet though, and do not have their chibi icons by the keepsake. Can anyone confirm if that is a requirement for the achievement?
Interestingly, it seems maybe Supergiant patched the bug that was giving it to people for free? I started a new Hell Mode save file earlier today and there wasn't any popup when that happened. Was curious if anyone else could corroborate.
I got both the something from everyone and friends forever achievements yesterday without any issues
the first achievement popped when I got the second new 1.0 keepsake on room transition and I got the second achievement upon maxing out that keepsake
the archievement of ||pet cerberus 10 times|| is not working. any ideas?
ok, now is working
sorry guys
Nyx is hot, yeah?
yes.
Also the second strongest character in the entire game behind Chaos?
“is [hades character] hot?”
do cows moo?
Hell mode first time playing hades????
@fair dove Hardcore gaming is the only way!
it’s like from a list of things you do like “get all boons from artemis” or stuff like that
I wish more Hades characters were straight up ugly.
if you take the fated choice you’re checking one of the items out of the list
ohh isee
and you’re closer to getting a reward
Also, the game looks great, but one very mild criticism I have is the character designs of the game.
so i should pick them?
I wish more Hades characters were straight up ugly.
@brisk trail i mean most of them are deities so
so i should pick them?
@wide stream well not always
Some look like they could maybe be in a gacha game, others look way more cartoony.
if there’s a better boon then no
otherwise do it
i see thank you
np
Speaking of, why isn't Haephestus visually represented in the game?
don’t know
depends on which depiction of Hephaestus we're talking about, saying this as a Greek.
they don’r represent a lot bc there is a lot
not really game related but can anyone tell me if the main folders within Hades (steam) are "Content", "x64", and "x86"? steam kinda messed up my download progress, thank you!
i still havent finished downloading so im trying to recover the progress via the remnants of past downloads, basically replacing folders and files huhu anyway will try again, thanks!
charon is beautiful before anyone asks ok
hey, can someone explain to me what
i still havent finished downloading so im trying to recover the progress via the remnants of past downloads, basically replacing folders and files huhu anyway will try again, thanks!
@lone jetty Just let it download and see if it plays 🙂 it's small in size anyways
are Themes?
I dunno, her understated appearance and hidden eyes really clash with the overstated designs of everyone else and create this sense of humble, restrained power.
Also I don't like the gold highlights on Charon. Too gaudy IMO.
dude’s gotta do what he’s gotta do man
he got the cash he’s gonna show it
are Themes?
@mystic arch Do you mean the music
@mystic arch they are ||something you can purchase from contractor to make the boons screen and victory screen more beautiful||
@dusty spade oh, its for the Boon screen, got it. Was a bit confused when I bought them but nothing changed about the Hades house
clearly Skelly is the absolute undeniably hottest
hades in number 5 of metacritic 2020
bouldy is a close second imo
hades in number 5 of metacritic 2020
@quasi grotto damn
good job supergiant you lads deserve it
wow a solid 92 even higher than animal crossing
yeah, great game. Did they say, if they are thinking of working on the game more, like new content?
God yes
Hades would be better if you could fight other weirdos, and not just Greek mythological figures.
yeah, great game. Did they say, if they are thinking of working on the game more, like new content?
@mystic arch it is a roguelike, so most likely
I want to beat up the great Rikidozan dammit!
And also Helio Gracie.
Who else do you want to beat up in Hades?
Im not yet through the main content, but it would be cool if the Olympus story got a resolution, with some new levels and bosses
Hi "We'll be considering opportunities to bring the game to additional platforms down the line. Thank you for your interest." means it's not even sure right ? Cuz if it's not coming i'm going to have to put money aside to buy a PC or a nintendo switch 😦
would be cool to see like actual daedalus beyond just mentions
Yeah.
what was that
Imagine Zagreus getting beaten up by a professional wrestler.
supergiant has been putting out new content for the game for three years
i think they're gonna work on something else next
It was a joke.
the game feels done to me
they said themselves they put their all into hades so they won’t be going for anything else anytime soon
close to 2 years, Hades entered early access in december 2018
I don't actually want them to put a pro-wrester in Hades.
time is fake
time is convolluted
They worked on the game for some time before 2018, though.
Also, I want to see what else Studio Grackle puts out.
Im going to buy hades within the week and was wondering if anyone here uses a switch pro controller on the steam version and if so, have you encountered any issues (mainly wondering about input lag/connection issues)? That's the only controller I have lying around and I really dont want to buy another one so it would be great if the pro controller works well with the game.
i don’t remember where, but they said they’ll take an understandable break
Our debut project! Thanks to Supergiant Games for the opportunity to work on such a fun project, and to the entire team for killing it on this project!
Director: Spencer Wan / Creative Consultant: Jen Zee / Key Animation: Chengxi Huang, Gem, Hartova Maverick, Weilin Zhan...
#hades-faq is where they mentioned they'll take a break once this 1.0 patch settles

@dreamy quail haven’t gotten any problems myself
i don’t remember where, but they said they’ll take an understandable break
now that i think of it it was probably twitter
idk I'm excited to play a new supergiant game in three years
I just think Hades would be better if it went full Keisuke Itagaki and made all of it's characters beautifully ugly.
Beautifully ugly in the sense that these are all ugly people whose ugliness was rendered with a great deal of artistic craft.
Given it’s supergiant, I feel like it makes sense for them to work on something else after this
But who knows really
i mean of course
And yeah, a break is definitely warranted haha
it will be interesting to see what they do next
They've never done dlc before so idk
Main thing I was referring to was that I wouldn’t necessarily expect more for Hades to be the next thing down the line
I think there’s a pretty good chance that what we have right now is everything Hades will ever be, as Supergiant moves on to other projects
I just hope whatever they do they take their time and make something lovely
if i had to guess therell probably be at least one more patch just to patch everything up but after that its probably something new
Oh yeah, getting a patch to fix any holes seems likely for sure
I’m just not sure I would expect any more major content patches
especially i think theres one a lot of people are asking for, ||a way to go back to the final area||
hey guys i am so happy
But given how well Hades has been doing on switch apparently, who knows really
that's true Hades has been a hit
||i beat this game yes! i BEAT Hades. I am so happy right now.||
Nice, KingStar
i would be on to pay 5 or 10 bucks for more content
i bought this game on december
@wide stream omedeto
Yeah like it honestly doesn't have to be a free update. Very willing to put in for it.
||man hades looks so hunchbacked in his standing still model||
but thanks to people on reddit and this discord giving guides and motivation to dont give up
try out different builds
Hades ended up being kind of an anomaly to me, as far as Supergiant games go
& find tour play style buddy
I really like it, and it’s probably the one I have the most hours in
Well, it definitely is
I've enjoyed all of SG games but this one is most def peak
I’m a rougelike fiend
^
it s my first supergiant's game . i discovered it thanks to Bricky's play on youtube
For me, there is a direct progression between Bastion, Transistor and Pyre
the fact that is a rogue like with actual story is insane
Hades borrows from all of them while not really feeling like it’s part of that trifecta for me
Bastion, Transistor and Pyre all blew me away in various ways at various points of my life while Hades ended up being more of a slow burn
Which, is kind of the nature of Early Access
It feels like they really "graduated" and made the biggest leap in quality in this one
Hmm
I've really enjoyed all of them but this is by far the best
i agree they were big improvement between patches
I think Early Access makes a game inherently less impressive to me because the experience becomes a lot more drip-fed
It was also just really nice to have these updates to look forward to throughout 2020
but playing in Early Access was such a nice experience as well
On the other hand, Hades undoubtedly ended up extremely well-baked as a game due to Early Access
Its one of the better EA games I've played
I think it was able to refine a gameplay loop to a mirror sheen more so than other Supergiant games
I can point to specific moments in Bastion, Supergiant and Pyre that absolutely floored me
Moments that at the time were just unbelievably impressive to me
Hades doesn’t really have that for me, but in return it has a extremely solid gameplay loop I end up wanting to come back to
As well as all the regular high points of a Supergiant game
Before Hades, I thought I had a pretty good idea of what a “Supergiant Game” was
I have got Hades yesterday and it's such an amazing game and I have watched all the videos of Developing Hell Documentary by NoClips on YouTube, you guys an incredible bunch of people in Supergiant!
But I really have no clue what to expect in the future out of this studio after this
Either way, I’m really excited
I highly recommend this documentary series to everyone if you haven't seen it!
I highly recommend this documentary series to everyone if you haven't seen it!
@untold coral Watching it right now, on the last episode now. It's very cool and interesting.
I should watch that documentary
historically they've released games three years apart
I’ve been eyeing it for a while
@idle cloak , so good! I am looking forward to the next one (I think they mentioned there will be one more - the last).
and they've said it takes them three years to make a game
so I'm assuming they're already working on something new
Hades must be a bit of a special case though
Well, I wouldn’t begrudge them a break haha
supergiant bros and its sequel supergiant bros melee
The EA aspect
Look, eventually they’re going to have enough franchises to do that mega
Well yeah I guess that’s true since Pyre released in 2017
breaks are good but like, they do this for a living
When Hades was announced I was definitely like “what??! Already?”
gotta keep making money if you wanna stay afloat
Sure, sure
gotta stay afloat if you wanna eat 😛
And breaks/vacations are probably included in that 3 year metric
mhm
Given how well Hades is doing, I don’t expect they’re in trouble
But yeah, I wouldn’t expect a break out of the ordinary or whatever
mhm
We’ll see what the future holds
@warm hedge I share your sentiment regarding Hades' place in SGG catalogue. What I found surprising in this solid "loop" is how resource based Hades is in terms of player incentives. That was pretty disheartening for me.
Has Supergiant said anything about future updates/dlc for Hades? The player base is definitely big enough that dlc can be very successful
I'
They've said there's nothing planned
How long do think it will take for hades to get a patch since I’m on switch and can’t play because of glitch
i wanted to ask if the Olympions Keepsakes have any real worth after the beginning boon you get at the start of a run
Thinking about it and how cross-saves might work, I don't think paid DLC is likely
Yummi, they still give you a higher rarity chance for boons of the relevant god but you won't "force" the same god again for the rest of the run
welp
bastion and transistor sold similar amounts iirc and didn't get dlc
even if they want to do dlc, they already said they taking a break
Well in 2012-2014 DLCs were still a controversial decision. Especially from a non-AAA.
Service games didn't exist
but now it's pretty much normalized
to pay $400 for pieces of a game over the span of two years
before that they are called expansions, what makes them controversial is just the outrageous heorse armor
i wanted to ask if the Olympions Keepsakes have any real worth after the beginning boon you get at the start of a run
@meager oriole definitely, specially if you are looking for a specific boon from a specific god for builds or synergies
and you know, mmorpg subscription exists for a long time, thats literally a service game @steel flicker
Yes. But for a system to exist solely within one genre vs across entire industry makes a difference.
Now a single player game can declare itself a service game and nobody will be surprised.
Another thing i wanted to ask is if that keepsake gets locked during the near end of a run? Artemis Keepsake got locked before i entered the Satyr place
if u already used it once, u cant equip it again
wait what they are giving us expansion ? 
Ok sorry to interrupt, but I have a friend looking to get hades on switch, shes worried that the text might be too small in handheld mode, can people here confirm or deny?
@frozen roost no
no clue @frozen roost
I have it on Switch and the text is small but perfectly readable both handheld and docked.
well lets just hope they give us content eventually. Game seems to be healthy rn though
Yeah, Supergiant games have been historically one and done with no dlc, but Hades has already broken the mold with EA and an update based development. That would leave it more open to future updates/dlc
yeah we cant say yes or no since they dont exacly confirm it
Ok sorry to interrupt, but I have a friend looking to get hades on switch, shes worried that the text might be too small in handheld mode, can people here confirm or deny?
@rigid grotto saw some people on the feedback section asking for an option to increase text/ui elements on Switch but not that it was unreadable, sounds like it's big enough
alright, thanks frens
dont see why they wouldnt update the game eventually, it came out yesterday and its top1 on steam charts
already
for new games *
I mean, number of sales has never been a factor to Supergiant on whether to release dlc or not. Transistor and Bastion sold similar numbers.
top 5 in top sellers
Supergiant in the past have moved on to new projects after the release of their current one
however, what they'll do after Hades no one knows at this time, all we know is they deserve a well earned break
i hope hades become those iconic games such as dark souls etc
Hey you all :3
I like making foods from all kind of shows and in celebration of the Hades full release, I've been thinking of making something from the show, currently I'm thinking of making the Pom Porridge that Eurydice makes <: (The picture of it on the wiki is a little unclear so I'm still working it out X3)
Anyone got any other ideas for foods from the game?
Funny thing you mention that, Dark Souls created its own genre and hard core game play style. Supergiant has done a similar thing with all their games around a certain game play style that they've polished over all of their games leading to its current iteration in Hades
then why the witcher is well known
You could make the Gyro and fries Anita
genre
The sandwich looking thingies from ingame
@steel flicker u missing my point
yeah that would be awesome!
Here's a higher quality picture of Pom Porridge if you needed it https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/hades_gamepedia_en/images/8/85/Pom_Porridge.png/revision/latest?cb=20191231162122
That's the one I'm using <:
Another food item in the game is Ambrosia Delight from Eurydice which seem like fun cookies to bake https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/hades_gamepedia_en/images/b/b5/Ambrosia_Delight.png/revision/latest?cb=20191231162112
I already have a recipe written down for it
Maybe I will make a hades special, with all the 3 items from Eurydice
Besides poms of power and ambrosia I think those're all the food items in the game
It honestly looks like sugar cookies
It does
Im thinking of making my own pom jam to top it, gonna be awesome
Good luck! Share with us your results!
_make the fishes _
Even though I'm still most puzzled about what's in the middle of the Porridge, maybe apple slices?
Will do : D
So I have max affinity on Dusa but I don't have a blurb on her keepsake. Is this a bug?
same here
I got it after she ||friend zoned me ;-;||
I'm new to Hades, and is there blessings for Demeter,apollo, and Hephaestus ?
I haven't gotten those yet
no apollo and hephaestus
wot
I think you might be confused.
No Apollo seems like an odd omission. Probably thought they'd be too much similarity with Artemis.
Gaia's treasure is just an item, Gaia isn't an actual character in the game
I think there was only room to develop so many of them in the scope of the game and they wanted a good mix of men and women
Who is in the portal in the floor then :/
You mean Chaos?
That was chaos ?
ooooh you meant chaos
Our favorite softly-spoken gentlebeing.
I like how all thee gods aren't just white
I think there was only room to develop so many of them in the scope of the game and they wanted a good mix of men and women
@mystic nexus Yeah makes sense. Can't have all of them as there'd just be too many characters. Apollo is a pretty major player though so just surprised he's not there.
I know, right? 😄
It's pretty nice.
Were you aware that Zagreus is an actual mythological figure? I wasn't when I first played the game.
No I assumed he was made up for the game!
In ancient Greek religion and mythology, Zagreus (Greek: Ζαγρεύς) was sometimes identified with a god worshipped by the followers of Orphism, the “first Dionysus”, a son of Zeus and Persephone, who was dismembered by the Titans and reborn. However, in the earliest mention of Z...
He's rather obscure.
If by Gaia you mean a strange hindu-like fusion between Astral from yu gi oh and Ashura from Soul Eater if it came from the Berserk universe then it was Chaos
ah yes, kratos the totally legit god
I'm not gonna spoil anything but they tie some of this lore into the game in a fun way.
@idle cloak they've said in past qa that as they developed the story someone like apollo became less relevant, demeter originally wasn't even considered
Really? That's surprising.
Whos your favorite god to get blessings from
I found out about the game because i was looking up references to make the underworld family in the sims 4 0-0
All things considered, Demeter would be a really odd ommission.
Whos your favorite god to get blessings from
@serene beacon it's a hard draw between artemis and poseidon
Yeah demeter is important now but she wasn't an original choice
Athena for me.
I like Poseidon
i love poseidon
when you get his power bar thing
and it's full
sometimes he goes
"GET OFF MY NEPHEW!!!!!!!!"
I have only gotten to the second stage with the lava , I immediately walked into the lava and died
dissapointed you cant ||romance artemis||
You can date characters in the game???
she's your cousin
I think Amir said something like they legit forgot. Then they realized that "omg this game talks about family and we haven't added || Persephone's mom ||
You can date in hades ???
she's your cousin
@narrow hemlock i mean so does thanatos
no
I like giving gifts to the gorgon head

sgg avoided incestuous relations where they could
hence why some god heritage is altered
That's not easy with Greek Mythology! They're all related to each other somehow!
Is there only 4 weapons ?
There's 6
And yeah if you want to be technical about it everyone came from the titans anyway
Do you get blessings from Hera ??/
but you can be tactful about how you present it
u see the empty spaces right @serene beacon
No, she isn't a character in the game
:(
not all of the olympians are represented
but she is acknowledged with her bow aspect
I want to see best boy Daedalus in the game ;v;
I like how every time you die there is new dialogue
There is a ton of voice acting :V
Same with Hestia
Hephaestus and Apollo aren't mentioned in the game at all save for some lines by Aphro and Arti
And you do know they exist anyway because... well, greek myths amirite
i mean theogony is already a long list
I think at this point there's like over 20k lines of dialogue lol
Pretty close
There was over 18k for blood price and greg mentioned there was like about 3k lines coming for 1.0
isnt 20k is fallout 3 level
Very close to be honest
granted a big chunk of lines are short quips but all the same everything is voice acted
Honestly how did they manage to think about every single possibility? They even considered the option of you picking a pom with no boons, it gives you obols
Good foresight.
Hades is one of the best games I have played this year
isnt thats how game design works
lots of player feedback
You want to hear some good voice lines?
combined with good forsight
Try using a God's Call during a Trial of the Gods where that god is mad at you.
theres an achivement for that
the gods will comment if you die in their trial too lol
Maybe the fact they're gamers themselves helped, they know how they can be thirsty for trying out everything and testing the game
or they watched a lot of top 10 easter eggs
You ever played Undertale? I think that game might be the king of "I can't believe the developer accounted for somebody trying this".
The level design is so good and visually appealing I love it
games like undertale is passion project
You get an acknowledgement in Undertale if ||you go the whole game without equipping armor||
oh god
i swear i love undertale but i forgot it was also that way
i remember the 4th wall breakings
Toby fox did everything by himself and so he permanently damaged his wrist :(
i mean most of the sounds is free sounds but yeah
My favourite is when after || dying 10 times by sans he says something like "hey it's your 10th time! Congratulations! Let's have a party, we can eat food and hang out with your friends... oh, right, i almost forgot ||
|| you have no friends ||
Just like real life
have u tried dying in the first chamber over and over again
Ya know, I don’t know if this is a spoiler or no
||but I’m kinda wondering if Tiny Vermin is actually a minor god||
which means either ||there are lots of tiny vermins in the temple of Styx||, or ||tiny vermin is immortal||
and i'm not sure what is worse
I for get how to spoiler
I think there’s a chance it became one
Didn't the codex entry say it was their king? Or am i mistaken
The collective will of all vermin eventually ascended it or something, perhaps due to being so near the underworld
Possibly it just became immortal
gib coins
Ah
Do this game come out on ps4? Do any know any thing?
Having trouble identifying the “flash” on the charging ranged attacks. I had no problem with it in Pyre. Is the showing on the pointer right after it reaches max range? Or is it a flash on Z himself? Thanks!
on z
Theres a small flash on the prince himself, and the aim indicator will also briefly flash white
It also doesn't flash at exactly full charge, I believe a power shot is just before a full charge
Ok thanks to you both! I’ll have to look out for those. Was staying away from abilities involving those because I couldn’t figure it out.
yeah i have a hard time doing powershots so i just take the hammer that makes arrows rapicly
You can test it in the in skelly area
thats not the problem, its just the window is small, kust like dash upper
Yea
Personally I prefer to not use the bow
I like the spear, fish shield and sword
Fist
the gun is nice if u got the rocket
SIGH
Asterus I hate him
Also my waifu betrayed me in that fight im so heartbroken
who
let me guess its ||Artemis||
Dash upper doesnt really have a small window
It feels as easy as any dash attack imo
Ichoren: Im never gonna give her another nectar
why does everyone like my waifu 
oh what am I kidding, she has the best boons over horny lady
speaking of the gloves, i thought zag aspect gave like
attack damage and move speed
*our waifu
I cant find a good way to use heart boons
i mean aphrodite is literally naked so thats an advantage i guess
im sorry but they all seem lackluster
aphrodite boons have the best damage scaling
aphrodite boons i sawesome
(unless they changed that too)
Not that i remember. Could you be thinking about sword instead?
and weak is nice
am I looking at this incorrectly then?
well im at run 10, so maybe I'lll give her another chance
but right now im all about best duo
Athena and Ares the A-team
What is the athena ares duo?
carups: i thought it was changed from dodge chance based on some post on the reddit
athena ares duo is that your deflecting attacks auto-proc doom
instantly
I don't like Athena or Ares 😂
its nuts
athena got big burst
or at least it was
so if you have like...chaos shield, and you went doom on special
Athena dash is kinda too good imo
being able to deflect is just incredible
athena call is just crushing bosses
Ares bow is just easy mode plain and simple
athena dash, zeus attack, ares special on ||Gilgamesh||-fists is nutty
lol
nah man rail gun then bow then staff
sword is ok'ish with some hammer, especially the attack wave
back to Tartarus you go hellboy
oh, huh
athena sword special is amazing
i had my absolute fastest run at just below 13 mins with the sword
the gun's easily my least favorite weapon
||gilgamesh|| is just a faster smaller ||arther||
Spear is easily my worst weapon
i only use guan spear lmao
i do like railgun
all u need is some dmg
rail gun with triple bombs = gg
other spears feel like ass
and you’re set
i honesty hate you!
dw, feeling's mutual
the 4th aspect railgun is crazy tho
I never bothered learning the gun either. 30 runs so far and only 1 gun run
i also don't know how to use the gloves
im so used to Sword special Deflect everything
if you get the unlimited ammo hammer upgrade for railgun, it's easier
same as aa-based gun
yeah i like zeus attack and ares or artemis special on fists, usually
sucks going through the first level without something
shield is the top by far for me
@hushed hamlet i just beat heat4 yesterday with fists, it was my first fist clear. grabbed zag fists and the zeus keepsake for the chain lightning on attacks, then athena for divine dash
i haven't fully upgraded any shield aspect
i tried all of them, only need the last 3 hidden aspect yet
Rest goes as expected
and apparently shield is only good with max rank in something
Carup ooh
some weapon aspect just don't click with you
maybe I'll do that
Chaos Shield is top tier
i jsut goddamn hates the bow targeting on controller
hey so question. Trying to get all achievements, and for some reason i still need "unlock each standard keepsake"... I've done all there is, i believe
bruh what’s wrong with dusa man
theres 2 last of them: ||hades and persephone|| @astral flume
genuinely hate this character
whoa
She shy
dont hate on dusa


HOW SHY CAN YOU BE
Anime shy
Dusa is the only gorgon trying to not kill me
can’t say hi to the kid
dere dere indeed
shield dash has complete invincibility
in better news
i did get the one for ||persephone||, and i'm now guessing you get ||hades' keepsake from defeating him in his stronger form?||
the chargedrush
no u need his line and giving him a nectar as usual @astral flume
huh... odd. but thank you!
Is there a reason to give more than one nectar to an NPC?
depends on which npc
Speaking of Dusa, in 1.0 does she still ||reject you at the end or can you actually romance her now?||
I like how meg keeps downplaying you even after you mop the floor with her thousands of times
i mean, alecto is way worse about it
its her work, have u tried ||romacing her||
Im 1-2 vs alec
@hushed hamlet once there's no reason to to give them a nectar, it will not give you an option anymore

It's pg2 in here
which npc are you thinkingof giving nectar to? @hushed hamlet
There can be a reason to, yeah
there is like 8 of em
is there someone to give gifts to more than the others
There is
cuz i’ve been dumping them in hypnos or whoever i see next
some npc u can ||romance|| with ||ambrosia||
romance
not even that
greek mythology sus
i dont think the "boon-gods" have any benefits for multiple gifts
||no romance for artemis since she already had calisto||
someone correct me if i'm wrong

some npcs, even ones you ||can't romance, you can give ambrosia to after maxing out their hearts with nectar. if you do, they'll give you active items||
not every one
lol
how do you even spoiler tag?
||persephone fonet give anything if u give her nectar||
gj
How much do infernal troves give when upgraded?
now u know how
||and i also know not to close them with "
either you use "||" before and after the spoiler part, or you mark and right click what you want spoiler-tagged
too much work using the mous
nvm just mark, no right click needed. the thing pops up on its own
do u know u can spoiler a picture if u name any picture with SPOILER_
short question real quick: The Heat Timer stacking instead of resetting with every biome - is that a new 1.0 thing or did I just not notice that its doing that before?
New 1.0
It's new
big same
also related to spoiler tagging, you can post links to images without the link showing a preview thumbnail by putting the link in angle brackets, <link here>
just make sure you mention it's spoiler content. when you ||link here|| it will still show a thumbnail but the thumbnail itself is spoilered
I play with mouse but does this game support controller?
In fact, the game Recommends controllers on the title screen
Personally I swap between controller and kb/m depending on what weapon I'm using
oh
controller doesn't work for me
that's why I was thinking that only kb+m supported
is this a new room?
I believe this room always have wallls
never seen them empty like this
Chaos cant keep a single fish alive?! man i just want those fishes!
It might have been added last patch (blood price update), but I don't think it came with 1.0
i thought it always have a squre wall
10 gems makes 1 key, 5 key 1 nectar so it goes 50 gems, x10 to get a diamond so 500 gems, x2 to get an ambrosia there goes 1000 and with that you make a Titan blood
or u know, u can just do ||higher heat||
NP
and you can trade a titan blood for 250 gems, which is a good deal and definitely not a scam at all
damn bro what a steal
a bargain
theft is indeed happening
you lose gems by not getting it id say
isn't there also 2 ambrosia for a diamond, which is the same kind of GREAT DEAL
i mean, to be fair unless you’re doing something weird you’ll run out of blood upgrades before you run out of gem stuff
at which point the price of blood plummets and the economy crashes
or something
i mean how many titans did they actually killed
Something totally weird like farming for gems on lower heat that you've already beaten?
very weird yeah
imagine playing less heat than is required for bounties 🤔
jks i just like heat, it’s prolly not that weird idk
Imagine doing it for something even weirder than farming gems, like progressing the story that was added with 1.0 or something.
jks i just like heat, it’s prolly not that weird idk
@sharp fossil are you always on heat
On a more serious note, there's nothing wrong with focussing on heat, I'm just memeing.
Question for the room, what changes do the hades mode make occur, and is there a way to enable it after the game has been made.
inb4 "but hades IS hell"
hellmode makes you start at a higher difficulty setting
you can for all intents and purposes get to that difficulty in normal mode, so it's not really much of a difference after your first few runs
insert obligatory rage about personal liability
PL is free heat change my mind
wats pl
not free ‘cause you gotta grind that hell mode save
not free ‘cause you gotta grind that hell mode save
you're right, it's more effort than literally any other 1 heat
omg the ||spear reach|| is ||long||
How do you unlock the hidden aspects??
hmm yes the spear is indeed long
read the pins in #h1-story-discussion @topaz tangle
Ty @carmine ravine !
wats pl
Personal Liability is a hell mode only heat option which disables the short period of invincibility you get after you’re hit for more than 20%(i think?) of your max hp
I'm mostly controller gamer but in hades you really lose the ability to choose direction to move and direction to attack independently with controller
i think the 1 hit immune for all enemies is free heat but that just me
try it with arthur
I'm mostly controller gamer but in hades you really lose the ability to choose direction to move and direction to attack independently
@brisk trail you should try using a mouse with your controller
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/751112073924313208/755565546220683284/Gued_Controls.png
try it with arthur
@sharp fossil i already did
woah, what
woah, what
yeah, you can use both at the same time
that will give you more smooth movement direction choosing
that seems funky
I just use mouse and keyboard even though I play some other games with controller 🤷♂️
I can see how that would work but I would miss out the key bindings more
hades is far easier with controller, can confirm
Hey sorry to interrupt but can anyone explain the mirror skill Dark Foresight to me? I just unlocked it, alongside Olympian Favor, and wanted to know which I should go for.
dark foresight makes gold, health, boons, and hammers more common
olympian favor makes boons stronger
Worth? Or stick to Olympian Favor? I saw a video that had a different one that made legendary and duos a little more common... Was that too powerful and they removed it or something?
i generally use favor, but idk what the meta is
Is there a tier list for aspects??
wats hitbox
there are some tier lists, but they are 100% subjective
Question about the Pierced Butterfly achievement: is it actually 30%, or supposed to be 30 rooms? I did the former and the achievement didn't pop
Ahh I see
@shell lion that's another mirror upgrade
Like a arcade fighting controller
Also I've had endless thoughts of Hades in an arcade cabinet
lego and duo more common is 250 dark per 1%
It is? Oh okay.
With a large stick and like 6 buttons
sounds retro stuff
hades is far easier with controller, can confirm
@carmine ravine why? with mouse u still get aim assist
Epic and Legendary are on 1, the hammer/health and rare are on 1 IIRC
@carmine ravine why? with mouse u still get aim assist
@brisk trail its just the feel you know, i dont even use controller for any other game since its hard to aim with controller
omni directional movement is generally the argument
that's relative
strike that, better cerberus petting experience is the argument for controller
and it’s a strong one
i still use KBM, but it’s a tough call
you haven't pet cerberus until you've pet him with a controller
superior fishing with controller 
Petting Cerb is the real reason Controller >> MKB
even when I was using KBM I had a controller on the floor and would switch to it when I wanted to pet cerberus
this is not a joke
i only pet cerberus exactly 10 times for teh achievement, yes im a monster
you are unworthy of cerberus
you need to pet him moar
dad was right to hate you
or does he?
lets be real, cerberus is just a 3 headed clifford
cerberus is spikier than and therefore superior to clifford
isnt spike is bad for petting
no
https://imgur.com/a/VSVChEC
can you do that without mouse?
a lot more would miss
i am sorry, but the dash is better
@sand stump yeah, especially with that brilliant riposte
just take the third one 
"you cannot be stunned" is actually awesome tbh
stunned from what
weapon need channeling like bow and rail
so enemies hitting you, urn procs
can be stun easily
possibly even wringers?
so its like sturdy but permanent?
right
wringers don’t stun, tho, right? they grab
there’s a graphic for it
i’d be surprised if it cancels that
thats assault and battery sir
Hades: God of the dead.
Thanatos: God of death.
Zagreus: God of deaths.
archilles call us ||god of blood||
I know, it was a joke 
please god give me more chaos fishes!!! aaaaa
Charon: God of the death river CAPITALISM
i need more ||basses||
zagreus, god of quips right after dying and getting rezzed
Zagerus, God of Snark
idk I feel like with mouse I have more control and even if it's harder (idk is it) it's more fun
it’s harder to move precisely, easier to aim
i don't think mouse is harder by nature, it is all about which you have more experience in imo
i don’t think there’s really any agreement as to which is “better”
i mean if u like using bow its spuerior i guess
why does no one listen to me
i have a lot of hours using M+KB in other games so it came naturally
unless you’re lysol ofc
I played with controller in EA, stuck with K&M at launch
why does no one listen to me
@terse geyser look, we just can’t handle the truth okay
I like shield, it's rush ability
