twin fist malphon jojo style.
is there something specific I need to do for sisyphus release to appear, or is it just a matter of waiting long enough to get all the conversations?
I gave him all the nectar a while ago, but still don't see that thing
You need to trigger certain conversations with... Nyx, Megaera and maybe Hades I think.
I talk to everyone available every time
is it because I have meg's own storyline happening and it takes precedence?
I gave him all the nectar a while ago, but still don't see that thing
shh i just woke up
in this case yeah, it might be a case of some bits o dialogue taking preference
The June update announcement preview thingy, when put into Photoshop and tweaked using the Curves filter
My call is that you'll have to buy a new weapon aspect in the temple's shop for either diamonds or a lot of coins. Would seems fitting to me
Please no lmao i’m short on diamonds
Charon being related to it is a likely option since the last “flagship npc” of an update, Nyx, was the one that told us how to unlock Arthur
I wonder how Charon’s going to work though
“I see you through the eyes of HOAAAAAARGHH”
XD
He might just give you a note
and I have 16 diamonds, so that wouldn't be an issue to me, lol
I also nearly never spend blood, for when the special aspects come. So I have 28 saved up, lol
same for having 16 ambrosia
i saved up on diamonds bc i'm hoping we get to reuinite Achilles and Patroclus in this update
it's pride month they gotta
but what about charon romance
|| https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/454690067701563412/717013199123120171/unknown.png ||
Although I strongly doubt this will be the color palette, I played around with the sliders until the coins looked about right. Hyped to see the actual artwork ^^.
pls SG i need it for my soul
I mean even if it's going to happen in another update it's ok but cmon IT'S JUNE I KNOW YOU DIDN'T DO IT ON PURPOSE BUT THAT'S THE THING! IT'S A SIGN!!
He's literally our golden boi
that edit looks sick man!
I now also want Achilles and Patroclus to reunite this update :c
thanks haha. This feels like FNAF all over again xD. I love it so much
I now also want Achilles and Patroclus to reunite this update :c
we're amassing an army uwu
yes please! They're so sad apart!
does that mean dionysus is the man behind the slaughter
From my playthroughs, my theories so far have been:
- I wonder if Skelly is Zagreus's grandfather - the mortal that Demeter was with, giving life to Persephone/ Kore
- You know how the normal encounters prepare you for boss mechanics, and boss mechanics prepare you for the Hades fight? I wonder if the mechanics of the double boon encounters (god vs god) prepare us for something like: we get to the surface and upon finding out that going to Olympus wasn't Zagreus's actual goal, we'll be forced to either survive god attacks, or fight enemies blessed by the gods as revenge?
Don't you mean the Hades fight?
ah yes, sorry xD
lol
there, fixed
And I'd love to spar againtst the gods at least
Or something like the pasts in gungeon but for Hades, where maybe if you have a gods keepsake when you beat Hades you get a special event, like a fight or a small mission, although I can see that being too much work
But a girl can dream
I just want to hunt with artemis
Well, the fact does stand that Hades has a relationship meter which is locked off until a future update. That's why I wonder if it improves because of something like, fighting the other gods later on
Since I would imagine him approving
maybe
Maybe after 1.0 Olympus will be an area where you can walk around in and talk to the gods, just like the house of Hades and filling up the relationships with Hades makes it so the portal in that paperwork room can go to olympus
I think it’ll be mostly about easing off the tensions or at least burying the axe when it comes to zag
And if something like that happens I hope you test boons there
would be really cool but i doubt it?
I'm very curious if the game, level-wise is about 80% of it's full length right now, or something dreamy like 50% or less. As in, the amount of zones and length of the full experience
i mean zag's goal isn't going to olympus anyway, so that might actually be counterproductive given that they'd want to keep you
zag will prob meet persephone soon enough maybe in the next update
i mean zag's goal isn't going to olympus anyway, so that might actually be counterproductive given that they'd want to keep you
@vapid parcel There is a piece of dialogue where concerns are raised on how will the Olympians react when learning of your true motivations
Wasn't it said that the ending won't come until 1.0?
yeah i know, which is why i doubt he'd go there yk
but yeah i think the ending is not gonna be in any 0. version
....What if Hades isn't actually the last boss, and there's gonna be like, you have to fight the Olympians once they cotton on that you're not there for them?
With the possible exception of Artemis.
i don't think he's the final boss either, but idk if you'd have to fight the olympians
If the olympians were all mad at you they could kick your crap in
i think that'd be weird, given that you'd still need their boons
You also have their boons whilst you're fighting the heroes
And they directly help the heroes too
well but they need to give the boons to you, why would they do it when they learn you don't want to visit them yk
Just like you still have the boons of the gods you don't choose in the trials of the gods
I suppose yeah
Maybe they're forgiving
i mean depends on how supergiant does it, but it feels unlikely
Maybe if you lose they're like "maybe you'll learn your lesson next time" and if you win you're like "I'm sorry for this but I wanted to see my mom" and the olympians will accept you since you're their family and will help you but now for other reasons
It might be weird, but there are ways to make it work
yeah there are, and your idea is in character enough tbh
i just feel like that's not exactly where it's going, yk?
Yeah.
that's true xD
there's so many possibilties
like battling through the eternal cold or w/e
Maybe you have to fight through hordes of other things on your way to find your mom in the overworld
yeah
(I call her mom because I can't be bothered trying to remember how to type the name)
persephone
her
What if you escape and get close to persephone and in one last attempt to keep you from finding her, Hades sends Cerberus after you and this time specifically to attack you
no
I HIGHLY doubt it, but it's techniclly possible
boss fight with ceberus
Nu
And it would be the hardest fight purely because you wouldn't want to hurt Cerberus
I wont be able to hurt him
they wouldn't, he's our good boy!!
He is the goodest boi of them all
That's why it would be an impossible boss fight
Idk, ceberus is a good boy but hes hades's boy
He is OUR boy
Reslly
Final boss is Dusa's body, lol
lol
LOL
asdfgh simpire
That'd be hilarious
I already self-censor myself with stuff like poopy or flip
And shiz
Even in direct speach
speech*
But just imagine, you arrive at Percephone's house and guarding the door is just a MEGA buff headless body and you find out it's the body of Dusa
Like the buff natsuke meme, but Dusa's body
Buffusa
We love buff women
ehy uuh the fanworks channel exists 👀 people do something about it
or @spiral pond, it's your time to shine
ehy uuh the fanworks channel exists 👀 people do something about it
@cloud geode Do what exactly? ;3
If someone makes it, please ping me, I'd love to see my brains thought realized in art
why can we humans draw if we can't draw buff dusa at some point
No idea
But it does make me wanna do sketch requests for Hades, for the fun of it. Not today though
something like this happened and untitled goosa game was born
Do you ever get to give the orange stuff to dusa
and get a cool turn to stone item or something
I want to make more drawings for Hades as well, but my drawings suck and I'm really selfconcious
Ambrosia? Yeah. You can max her relationship out
If you give her ambrosia after doing her a favor you get her companion that petrifies enemies
I want to make more drawings for Hades as well, but my drawings suck and I'm really selfconcious
@vale dove I don't have advice against being self conscious other than: people don't tend to judge skill level, they're just happy and excited to see ideas in picture form. The artist is their own worst hater
I have posted some of my drawings on the server before
you do indeed get to give her the orange stuff
But I'm too nervous
I still feel like my art sucks, even though I know it doesn't https://www.alexangora.com/
give it all to her she deserves it
now*
@cloud geode on it
people in this fandom are pretty thirsty for art anyway, everything here is very welcome
we need content hhh
cursed content included
yes
oh boy here it comes
I can try to make another drawing, I just don't know of who
Im just hoping for workshop customization in the far future
or atleast in game customization for character looks unless I havent found a wardrobe or something
I can try to make another drawing, I just don't know of who
@vale dove do the new Charon art 😉
I can
nah, that's sadly not coming due to how zagreus' sprite works
it's a frame by frame sprite kind of deal instead of 3d proper
The amount of detail in the new Charon art just spooks me to draw
how could you-
so any graphical changes would also require editing every single frame in every aspect etc etc
A lot of sprites 0.o
there's a steam post about it pinned somewhere
you couldnt tell it wasnt a sprite?, anyways, I was just gonna say if see things like darkest dungeon; theres people who will do it
but thats why i also added in in game customization
Personally I don't want customization because I like that the character retains the power over his own looks like that, in this case. Just because there's so much story and symbolism to it all. I'm very happy to continue getting more decorative items though ^.^
I just want to play as Hermes tbh, lol
xD. Just zoom!
Or a skin with just the clothes of red shade, lol
I know there won't be skins, but it's funny to think about
Red shade is one of the characters that I have drawn
I drew 2 of her even
them*
Don't know their gender
wheres cupid at tho
Eros?

cupid is zagreus using coronacht with an aphrodite attack boon
turns out the heart seeker epithet worked in more ways than one
I want some Loki boons
@trail garden Wrong pantheon ;P
Same pantheon if God of War
this is hades though ;P
I was just messing of course
They could add a norse aspect
When you unlock weapon aspects, one of them is from another mythology/region
Fight Jesus
we'd also have to see if other myths in the hades universe were a case of syncretism or if there are other sorts of gods out there
2 of them, actually
Only 2 are in the game right now
Both are from another, Volty
Who? I’m fine with being spoiled on what gods are in the game
much like the two already mentioned fourth aspects are future shapes the very much greek mythos infernal arms will take outside greek history
Nah I meant out of four aspects one is outside greek
Ahh, yeah
Y'all talk about gods and forgot about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ St. Patty
No no
Excuse me, I represent our Lord Lucifer
St. Patroclus
And be the son of Krasnoyarsk
Santa aspect
Krampus
That would be amazing
Not sure if SGG will do DLC
They don't
Why not?
just soundtrack packs
They usually don't with all their games so far
Sad
Which I gladly purchase
Not really?
Hades definitely makes sense for a dlc
It means that everything they want to put in the game, they put in for no extra charge
But it is what it is
it ees what it ees
Yeah I wish for more contents too
DLC is extra money, sometimes it fairly priced, but that's all it is
We will see
We don't even have 1.0 yet lol
Lol ikr
Bible 2, Jesus has a gun
You should Holy Water
Its still early access
And constantly chant Be Gone Thot
I’m still a kid does that mean I can’t think of when I’m 60
it shoots roman's salty tears of them crying because he isnt dead
aspect of MURICA
every time you use the special the world's freedom increases by 10%
Don't you mean decreases?
Oof
🇺🇸 
This is America
no this is patrick
Insert Skelly spoilers here
@finite matrix for Dusa you need to buy a certain amount of Lounge furniture with gems. Then you can gift her Ambrosia and get Fidi.
||Please no stop||
And Dusa tooo
That makes an unusual amount of sense
Yeah help the maid out by buying furniture
Never bothered to buy any decoration
:D
Thanks
Yeah you only need the lounge though
The wiki tells me I need to kill Skelly using lv5 zagreus aspect blade so I don't think that's gonna happen anytime soon
Lol yeah I hate that quest
Though I find Meg and Sisyphus to be one of the easier to use ones.
But gl anyhow :D
Thank you 😄
it's just 5 titan bloods, you'll eventually get there with prophecies
I have 1 titan blood bro
trust me
it sounds a lot harder than it actually is
Imagine upgrading Zag Sword
I haven't beaten Hades even after 40 runs I'm gonna kms
you'll just go back to the house if you do that
there is no escape
You will get there
But then he one shots me with his dumbass spin
For sure
it's alright
perseverance and keeping an eye on his patterns get the job done
yeah, you'll eventually beat him
it took me way more tries than that to beat him but once i did my win ratio dramatically spiked up
hades is about figuring when he's gonna do what
and how to avoid it
once you learn to recognize his moves you're gucci with him
also that depends
weapons are a very personal thing and each one adapts to a person's playstyle more or less
so i suggest screwing around with weapons to see which one you feel the most comfortable with
messing around with boons also helps
I lost a sea storm + exclusive access + scintillating feast run with poseidon's special 
oof
Rail with the hammer upgrade that makes your special a nuke or something
Exclusive Access is... subpar imo
Was dealing like 600 dmg
yeah but scintillating feast though
Pretty sure I might've also had Artemis + Zeus one
lightning rod is
not that good imo
That made the cast still do dmg even after it ran out
Sure but y'know it worked
It's pretty good with the shield since I can just block and let the enemies kill themselves
Exclusive Access made me get Second Wave once so I like it
Well one day those close runs will be close enough
Sorry boss
I'm going
Welp, did my first perfect fight agianst Hades without losing any HP,and needed to brag, I know it's Guan Yu but I still feel proud bout that feat, unfortunately screen is in Polish
https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/1054352365045024984/4815BC2599E72057A397063ABFF0751A4AE4DE60/
My mans had 3 legendaries 
Has anyone memorized the boons' image and could tell me what were the strongest ones
What's Guan Yu tho
Aspect of Guan Yu
it's a spear aspect
Spear’s fourth aspect
Oh more stuff I don't have access to and end up unintentionally spoiling myself nice
rip
the spoiler channel lives up to its name
The leggies they have on is Dionysus’ (something about hangover and party clouds) and Athena’s (1hit invincibility every few secs)
blackout
That
Ya it seems to be a Dio + Ath build might try it out
and divine protection
With Artemis attack?
What did blackout do again? I remember it involved both of dionysus’ gimmicks but not the exact effects
Artemis attack is deceptively good
Flat % increase to damage plus chance to crit
I just don't like the spear
Combo’d with Guan Yu’s native high dps it can give you beefy numbers if you know what you’re doing
at all
Also did you know an aspects’ rarity goes up as it levels up?
lvl 1 aspect is common, level 2 uncommon and so forth
Athena's boon against traps really helped as I choose 400% dmg traps for pact
That’s why maxed up guan yu is “legendary”
honestly, i think there's nothing super crazy about your boon combinations
so getting no damage is probably more impressive, you should be proud of your achievement
i focused on deflection with dodge and speed mostly
after call +60% to dodge combined
and oh, I love getting additional dashes, really helps me against the dreaded spin attack
My next run is gonna have to be fists since they're the ones with the Darkness buff
game doesn’t have a time limit so you can at least take your time to git the gud without any worries
It's still sad to go 40 runs without beating hades
You’ll probably beat him several times in a row like it’s none of your business when everything clicks though
@finite matrix crying in a corner
Very
pick a weapon with darkness buff, grab darkness buff from chaos, grab every infernal trove with darkness
kill dem bosses again with same weapon
Door rewards should scale tbh
biggest gains i guess
if bosses have been beaten then they drop loads too
and with +20% its even better
the most efficient farm is probably playing on a heat where you've already beaten the final boss and getting all those darkness buffs
and beating the boss
also grab oceans bounty or whatever from poseidon early game
Really need to do a few farming runs with Poseidon's boon that increases rewards
Yeah that boon
Overleveling bois
They are totally worth it though, they look so dope.
I just love Hades' quips for contracts ❤️
In particular for the rugs.
Daddy-o just hates rugs.
Well, he mostly hates everything apparently.
Immediately buys the rugs
I just bought the royal tombs
Kinda disrespectful to the kings in question but damn do they look good
omg heroic artemis cast, is it worth to replace poseidon, hmmm
I prefer Poseidon's AoE but that's just me
got my first weapon upgrade, thank god weapons can change look; gotta love versatile style
Not just looks, each Aspect plays differently
some being a minor change, some others actively changing the gameplay style and some others changing the gameplay style so it’s almost unplayable
I'd expect it to be though I'd also expect it kind of useless on bosses
Yeah I have no idea how to boss using fists
Any experienced players here to tell us?
I wouldnt expect you to be able to magnetically pull the boss like youd want to
Still, at least you'll be able to mob better and take less dmg that way
It helps a lot given that fists has small range
wtf i cant quit to menu in styx?
Talos is good, the pull has pretty long range. Doesn't pull bosses
How do you boss effectively with fists though
@frank venture you probably just performed an action/bought a boon
Lots of careful timing, Ayer
got boon, tried to quit but only give was availble
if you go into a tunnel or into the next room, you should be able to quit before taking any damage
Or facetank Hades with 3 DDs
I mean Ive bossed with the fists, its not that hard if your shift can reflect etc
i only wanted to change language to eng to show off mah build of fists sigh
anytime you perform an action that pulls the rng lever, you'll have to move into the next section to get quit option
Oh please do I'm very interested
(wasnt any impressive x))
What do you have bound to shift, Pineapple?
I have no clue how to build fists except for like, Zeus attack
What ability?
its default
Dash is space by default
Using a PS4 controller feels so much better imo
No
or is there a shift
Shift is another key
Oh I thought you meant the shift key
it felt unnatural to me so i switched cast with special
😐
I had Cast on Shift for a long time and eventually migrated it to M3.
but then you cant go left and use as the same time
Controller works for some people, KBM works better for others.
or atleast itd be harder
I've been meaning to try controller, I have my switch pro
Controller works for some people, KBM works better for others.
@atomic forge Amen
Wdym, pineapple?
I'm more of a console gamer since my laptop kinda sucks, so it works well for me
Action/Rpg games, including rogue-lite, always felt better for me when using the controller
Ah, yeah, that's what I do
I also type with three fingers for both hands but get 109wpm
Why tho
because the regular way doesnt feel natural
Ive tried
theres no getting used to it for me
Using pinky for shift key is so effective but whatever floats your boat
how do you fight bosses with fists?
you hit them real hard
and repeatedly
until they die
barely made out of elisium with all lives but somehow managed
in all seriousness mix a lot of dashing with fists if you're using them
attack boons are mandatory
i tried to be smart and welp, run is over, but basically i went with posiedon cast and special, athena attack, additional dashes, hangover dash, dodge, dedal upgrades for lifesteal with special and attack ending with dash attack so i can attack nonstop and deflect that way
No??
posi cast is great though
you do you
but as far from what I see, its far from the best one
I was just joking ofc
It's not bad, but yeah, it pales in comparison to a lot of others unless Hunting Blades are go.
honestly
poseidon cast with poseidon legendary was the funnies thing i've seen in a while on styx
throw all casts and see enemies pinballing around the place until they die
hm true
I can imagine their yells of confusion and/or pain.
boom
I sucessfully jinxed myself as plan
second run after purposely saying id never meet her and boom I got her
time for acorn
what I cant give her abrosia?
do I gotta run in a second time
dang it
You can give her Ambrosia
But not the second time you see her
In fact not for a while
Getting to know someone doesn't mean showering them with gifts.
Throwing this out here even though it's early to know and say: if Hades did get Steam cards, who or what would be them?
Zagreus would be an obvious one.
please give me an ares one so I can hoard them and also display two different ares I love from two different series 🥺
what
what's the other series?
ooo
I wonder if they'll do chara backgrounds but the backgrounds may just be areas in the game or smth, who knows
anyway back to it
i assume that if we ever get steam cards it'll be the gods and house NPCs
which is uh
basically all of the cast
or most of it anyway
I'm sure there will be cards once 1.0 hits, they've done them for the previous games
Nyx card please
they could introduce 90% of the cast as steam cards without entering into spoiler territory
Backgrounds would be the three "scenic" spots in-game rn. I think Asphodel's could be a little more worked on but it's nice. I like it.
what about a theseus card? an asterius card
EM or regular?
I just want Nyx
prob reg
Give me give me
Out of curiosity, how many cards could a Steam game have max? I think I've seen 14 for one game. I know the lowest amount could be 4 or 5.
I want nyx too
shes hot
wait are we still talking ab stgeam cards
those should be extinct by now
they are not
we still get em because why not
they make a good gift when you wanna make sure they dont use cash for drugs
Why on earth would you think steam cards are extinct when they're still a heavily active part of the steam economy
steam still carts them around for major sales, good way to make some change if you hoard a bunch
tone doesn't convey through text
yes but intelligence does
not really
I am not interested in having a slap fight with you rofl best to disengage the topic
@supple dagger in I think I've seen 16 idk usually it's about 14
fight fight fight kiss kiss kiss
I got brass knucklez in this
Let it go
This is okay.
This is indeed fine.
Ah okay. 🙂
okay i just looked,
bastion had 5, transistor had 5, pyre had 8
so i would say if hades cards came out we're looking at 5~10 perhaps
yes
Dusa would make for a great trading card tbh\
otherwise yall drunk
you're right I am drunk...on life 
That must feel nice
So is Codex written by achilles
Yup
ok just making sure
yes
jesus bruh the one fury sister literally just puts you in a small room and explodes you to bits
you mean tisiphone?
I see you have met Tisiphone
She is a real conversationist
but not without protection
you do know you can hit her projectiles so they'll vanish right?
or at least most of those
like the witch ones
stay out of the circles
I have a bow equipped so its a charge
press Q 4head
Just facetank it like a real man
im not talking about her star projectiles
???
im talking ab her bombs
Profit
her wot
literally just run out of the circle
Just dash out of the way
which bombs
I mean a bomb is literally an explosion
tisiphone has no bombs
she has
whip
light thingies
explosion
mhm
and they all can be reasonably avoided
whip requires you to dash at the last second
the light thingies can be attacked so they'll p e r i s h
yeah not like the whole point was that she made the room too small to not able to dodge
and the explosions require you to move out of the very obvious area of attack
get into the hallway 4head
I just time it
and then out when she targets it
And no bother with the dashing out of the way
also yeah, dash
also the small room's perfect to nuke her since she can't avoid you either
it is
you can dash through attacks without getting hurt
But there are I frames
it's a small window but it works
For a normal dash
alright
yeah
learning the dashing windows for bosses is a hassle but it's also worth it
Divine Dash just makes it easier
WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL POSI THEN
Or that
YOU COULD HAVE SURFED A BOSS TO DEATH
for shame
real talk now always keep an eye on the god gauge
hydra would eat me alive prob unless I had hold fire
hydra is ezpz just focus on melting one head at a time
ive gotten really close every time
and you'll be gucci
i know, I literally almost ran it on my first try
theseus and asterius though
first times with those two are always painful
their names sound like a pain
my first fight with them I won
it was the opposite for me
the next 3 tho...
it took a couple fights with everything except the duo to get used to them and win
I almost run through them first try
but these two
I was really pumped
blood and darkness these two gave me nothing but trouble
One of my best memory in the earlier run
I immediately wanted a rematch
It was exciting
so
is there any good reason to buy items from the purple pot? most of them only last for encounters
Also if you dislike Tisiphone already i want to see what you think of her sister Alecto
aside from healing

Depends
Well of charon items are very situational
zag has a line about wanting a rematch with theseus, hes very upset when he says it, understandably
I grab it for boss fights mainly
It generally depends on what you need at the moment
And skipping wells is a perfectly reasonable thing to do
I mostly just use it for extra boons or upgrades
Also i’d also be upset if i lost to Theseus
I’m fine dying to Asterius but Theseus is adding insult to injury
half my deaths in bone hydra is from previously dashing into lava constantly
Lol
Learning to not take dips into the phlegeton is a valuable skill
being defeated by theseus isnt any more insult to injury than being beat by tiny vermin and having hypnos laugh at you :v
I never died to the vermin
i havent either
but he has a line for it
he laughs, says my condolences and zag is like, no keep them
One the one hand i wanna try to see what hypnos has to say about it but on the other one it kinda feels like i’d be wasting the trip
"I always wondered what would happen if I stopped and caught the flying grenades!'
or something like that, mean while the dude gets chewed out by Hades
Yeah, Hypnos is like that
His entire character exists to throw flak at you for dying
That is basically it
thats why we have an issue with how disconnected he is with everyone else in the house lmao, its not even just that he hasnt gotten narrative material yet, even his existing content just exists in a whole different bubble from everyone else
the olympians and even theseus will call zag something, his name, a pet name, just something that refers to him, and hypnos doesnt even do that much. not a single time
huh
I never noticed that
I think you’re right, he never does call you Zagreus doesn’t he
it took me a long time to realize it but once i did i combed through every single bit of material i have, screenshots, everything ive fed into the bot, not a single instance does hypnos ever say zagreus or zag.
nice
Unbeknownst to all, Hypnos is the only one at the House doing the job he was meant to do
Talking trash at the player
so its not that he feels disconnected because he hasnt gotten narrative material yet, but even as he is now hes so impersonal and thats why a lot of people brush him off. you dont bond with him like basically anyone else in the game. even if you dont bond with the bosses, even alecto and theseus still have something that they call zag that refers specifically to him
Hades secretly keeps Hypnos just so he can continue sassing you.
Could you please give me a list of the things Alecto calls Zag?
I always find amusing what she has to call him at the moment lol
redblood and god of trash/trash god, off the top of my head
id have to go look and see if theres anything else
He mainly calls zag redblood, yeah
does Tisiphone get to the point where they say Zagreus even if it's broken a tonne
i think its all just murder :/
@hollow mortar i had found this but I don't think it's fully updated https://hades-dialogue.tumblr.com/
Mmmrrrr~
tisi, charon and cerb are in another catergory that cant communicate with zag for one reason or another
it's definitely missing ares/nyx stuff
It’s murder all the way down baby
which is what I was looking for
that blog hasnt been updated since the january update i think
tisiphone romance when
do you want the entire dialogue chain? ive got is somewhere
i figured you might have a more complete set
Why, thank you!
lmao Duwang
i do i just have to search discord for whoever i was talking about it with and throw it on pastebin i guess
this blog is just easy to search through
hmm!
Why not, right?
Might be amusing to some 
i def used it for the bots since its easier to look through
i dont know who runs the blog though so im not sure if it'll see an update
That’s a bummer.
i also used it to look through Asterius dialogue cause i got the impression that he and Zag could be great friends under different circumstances, I just wanted to confirm my thoughts
What do you mean? they are friends.
I uh
Am not sure Asterius really likes us
They have friendly competitions. They respect each other
He seems pretty murderous
He does- yeah, he definitely respects us, if only as a rival
He is competitively murderous
But i’m not sure i’d go as far as to say he’s on friendly terms with zag
He thanks you when you kill him - good fight, etc.
He's even respectful when he kills you
They could 100% be on friendly terms with each other in different circumstances though
it's like two rival athletes
Theseus might be an idiot but Asterius is fairly level headed
Asterius is a bro, Theseus is a self-righteous idiot
@cerulean hamlet not something im going to keep up forever but here it is https://pastebin.com/MSHxwqEe
tyty
I liked those 2 interacting with each other. So unexpected but amusing hehe
I hope we get other interactions like that...
For example, Thanatos and... idk, Aphrodite?
That would be really random lol
the more i read that, the more it takes less of a Ares x Nyx kind of fanfiction and becomes more of an Olympian god making attempts at bridging relationships with Cthonic gods
or maybe i'm reading too much into it
yeah, ares kinda. lays it on thick a bit lmao but what i liked about it was mostly the confirmation that ares is indeed seen as an outcast on olympus, and since we already know by that point that the olympians look down on the underworld gods, you can take it as ares wanting to know more about the chthonic gods out of a sense of kinship too
yeah
i think my first go around, Zag reacts as if he was the player and it clouds a little bit of what is actually said
Yeah it does feel more like Ares having a morbid interest on the underworld than anything else
Which does fit him
even zag himself says he doesnt know why hes getting so defensive. but nyx obviously isnt interested in ares in the way zag thinks ares is interested in nyx
right
He’s also a fan of Thanatos iirc
i think we had discussed it before about why the conversation feels like a regression, but that's only from the perspective of Zagreus. and maybe the point is that he just doesn't get it quite yet
"Perhaps you know a god called Thanatos? The two of us are very close associates, you know. Do give him my best wishes should you see him soon."
"I trust that Thanatos is doing well? Although he brings to mortals merciful release, whilst I most certainly do no such thing, I do appreciate his take on it."
the comments ares makes on thanatos are nothing but polite. i kinda wish there would be more commentary from than about ares. his work is inherently tied in with ares, and nyx and hermes have both made comments about ares and how he basically keeps the underworld busy lmao
what a nice young man
“So now that you’re in friendly terms with the Cthonic gods, could you dial down the wars a bit? We’re already swamped with the eternal winter and the constant strife isn’t helping”
“Hahahahaha no”
he can be persuaded according to myth. but it better be a good offering, and its not a permanent thing either
Yeah
whats the skull arrow thing under a god's symbol for a gate
does it mean the rarity is increased?
for god boons, yes
that guide is accurate for what the elite badges correlate to, but if a god boon is for such a chamber, then it does have increased rarity boons, which isn't specified by that particular guide
but it does become common knowledge as you continue playing
I mean its one of those things that you just figure
That also applies to some others—elite key rooms can grant 2 keys, elite hearts give +50
you're the one who asked
I didnt know it was a miniboss room
I just asked what the symbol was
I already assumed it was better loot
guy-
so if the hanged photo of what im guessing to be best killer of the month in the bar changes to Meg, does that mean the kpop person that was there prior is person in the game
what are the prerequisites for getting the fishing rod? i have like 7 diamonds now and have gotten most of the gemstone upgrades, do i need to buy cosmetic stuff too?
nice!
perfect ^_^ congrats again 
Scintillating Feast + Cold fusion + Ice Wine 
Thank you once again, Aggy
This is now the strongest build in my book
laughs in Hera-Artemis
I thought Dionysus/Ares was better for Hera
level nine Divine Flourish
I think that's the highest level boon I've gotten
alright, time to fight hades with 4 T1 Athena boons, 1 T3, 1 Hermes Boon, 2 Hammers, and a Chaos
this might be tied for the least boons run I've done
0 heat, but a perfect final fight. Also had exactly 0 obol at the end, so a new victory tag
only lost one hit on the Acorn, as well
Nice job!
well played
Bro I just got Hermes' legendary boon like ????
it's so good!!!
Its useless on non-cast builds though =/
I only end up using when I'm running Hera or Posiedon
It works amazing on those two aspects
@north cloak which one was it?
Which what, sorry?
the narrator
Oh, lol,
So Zagreus goes out to find his mother... but let's pretend he was absolutely clobbered
yup :D
did y'all know that the olympians are actually called different names depending on where you are in the world?
for example, in the uk they call her demeter, but in america they call her defoot
booooooooooooooo
Truly enlightening
EEEYYY
no one is going to criticize your armor damage. Armor sucks
hi guys, havent been on this server in a hot minute
any word/speculation on the next update's contents?
nope
well as far as when
but nothing beyond whats shown in the march trailer
for content
As far as when, june sometime
Charon will get his new model and he's gonna have a sweet hat, that's about the extend of what we know.
thanks, i hope im not sounding like a broken record here but, been hurting for some end/story
this is as far as we know for what kind of content we'll get https://gyazo.com/7f1df5beef28a849cdd59dbe6d0905b9
That hat is amazing, definitely have no intentions on stealing borrowing it...nope not at all
and the ingame roadmap mentions well of charon rework
lol Aggy
actually come to think of it i dont think it actually uses rework but uh it seems to be an update centered around charon/well of charon with some other adjustments and stuff
Well, at least Aphrodite loves him 😅
dionysus is indifferent too, I don't think hermes necessarily feels negativity towards him either. the other olympians all distrust him though rofl and nyx confirms this
it's interesting he's made more of a gentleman while retaining the outcast status, I like it
Hermes gave me the "Ares gives me more work than I'd like" vibes. Artemis was so-so but then again, she's like that towards most of her family lol
Dionysus is chill, I like that 🍷
dio is honestly just living in the moment and doesn't care what everyone else is up to lol
I don't trust people who are that happy go lucky.
because he can stop time
would have been fun if sgg had incorporated more of orphic dio into his interpretation, add a bit of underlying chaotic madness. not like blatant or anything but you get a glimpse of it, particularly when you scorn him. rn you make him upset and he's just thought we were bros! nvm what was I mad about? idk it's humorous but also not terribly interesting
ok but imagine his trial is more dangerous than what is now
it drives enemy faster movement speed and attack speed
aka feast frenzy
temporarily
make dio a threat!
kinda like athena's invicible window
it will be mega pain in high heat and trial will become something you really gotta think rather than a straightforward choice
because as of now the trials are so easy if you dont pick trial room you are not playing it right
you get 2 boons and thats huge
I would second guess scorning him depending on hp and what the map is like, with smth like that lol. as it is now dio's trial isn't really one I deliberately avoid
I think the main one I shy away from atm is demeter, bc the ice has a wide range and it's not hard to get distracted and caught in it, so the slow down is an annoyance. I avoid athena purely on principle. anyone else though... can't really say other trials annoy me enough to steer clear, unless I'm already running rift, then ares trial becomes a mess lol
Hey, I've been out of the loop a bit since the minor Aphrodite update. Do we have any rough date about the next update?
They'll let us know closer to the release date
sometime in june! cait told us last week the update is still on track as planned but that's all the info we can have at this time
I'm sure there will be something in announcements just prior to the update once they're ready
Awesome thanks for the update on the update
sometime in june? is there a more specific date ? im really excited
not for now, no, they will probably tell us when they know
otherwise the update will be a nice holiday surprise
the name june is based on Juno tho
Hi everyone,
Definitely not an SGG rep here, but the June update will happen on June 16th 2020. SSG is on track and hopes everyone will enjoy the contents that will definitely be released on the above date.
Stay frosty,
Love
Definitely not SSG rep.
that's why i said nice pun
and then they add the option to romance ares in march
will there possibly be a hades keepsake?
probably not
No the new keepsake will come from the Chef
dun think so
nice
chief what?
chief bouldy
wretched broker keepsake
it makes everything more expensive
And scale off not Ambrosia but how many fishes you caught
i imagine they meant chef
well the new one will come from Her-shef
I caught 0 fishes oh ye
oh yeah btw will there be a new malphon aspect in the next update or two?
we dunno
welp ill just keep on dreaming of it
please stop
^
oh come on its just a few puny puns
im out
I think scorning Athena in trials isn't so bad anymore
yeah, athena trials are basically "whoops she made that enemy temporally invincible" and not that much of a hassle outside timed runs
I am just conditioned to not bother bc of pre-nerf greatshields
Artemis is probably the best one to spurn, Athena also isn't really that bad. Demeter on the other hand...
Yup, 15 damage + like 80 more from the gang of wretched thugs that just waited for you to be stunned.
Yup Arte is best girl for that reason
She doesn't go bat sht crazy if you don't choose her
And it never stops coming for you
She literally does
She tries to kill you
Unlike meg, who does it because it's her job
Everyone does
Stop
Arty less so
You're wrong
She is like you hurt my feeling
Bro no she gets mad bc you didn't choose her blessing ffs
That's it
Every God does that
Meaning no god can be classified as best girl or dude
They're all bad
Meg, on the other hand...
Smh my head
Ding dong your opinion is wrong
She's the only one who doesn't ACTUALLY want to kill you
Dusa doesn't want to kill you tho, and she also never does 
"Dusa doesn't want to kill you tho, and she also never does has not yet"
well yes, never does so far, kinda thought that was implied xD
Call me an optimist
Lord knows how venomous those snakes are. Who could say what they might do in... unexpected situations
Both your opinions are wrong because as laddies and erogla pointed out dusa is a superior waifu because she never tries to murder you
"I love you, Nyx" "I love you too, my child"
Couldn't help but go "Awwww" out loud at that
I finally picked the game back up today after a bit of a hiatus, and after just one run I've had the "Kore" dialogue, a heart to heart with Achilles about Chaos and Nyx, and that wonderful mother/son moment.
This game is adorable
now if only nyx would talk to her actual son and not dismiss him because he's not living up her expectations
like it's cool she got that tender moment with zag and all but [gesturing at hypnos] hello sgg what's going on here
mood man
give hypnos
also at least we know who's the best boy
truly no competition
Has Nyx been dismissive of hypnos? I haven't really heard her mention him, but Zag never mentions Hypnos to her, and Nyx only talks to Zag about people Zag talks to her about.
she literally doesn't talk to him
she does eventually mention him after zag asks
more or less implies he's too immature and needs to grow up and not rely on her for menial things, so they don't speak
which is not how you do that
which I think is really f word but whatevs
I just can't help but think like. imagine what it would feel like to watch your mom and friend get close, seeing your friend get the love and attention you want from your mom but mom says you have to learn independence first
it's great angst material for hypnos but also what the heck man
it only adds to how disconnected he is from everyone in the house lol
that's also not how education works
like, if you want someone to be more independent you start slowly
it's not. if thanatos and nyx are trying to make a point to hypnos through tough love, that's not how you do it
None of the gods are good parents and that seems to be a reoccuring theme intentionally, so hopefully that gets addressed? At some point? on how it's messing everyone up
yeah exactly :c
There is also a small part of me that thinks Hades himself deserves a better ending than he’s currently got but shhh
what's really messed up here is you can see it as zag getting the parental affection from nyx that he craves from his father... but in turn hypnos is denied that himself
sadly we don't know how long any of this has been going on, i would be really interested in that
Also yeah, Hypnos deserves better; everyone knows that he’s the god of sleep too, so he can’t really help it. Have you seen the bags under his eyes?
sarijinn gets it

no one reacted to my pun
