maybe thana and hermes co-share the job of guiding folks to the underworld, as @urban sentinel said, thana guides those are at peace with death, while hermes is kinda the express route for those with non-pleasant deaths

urban sentinel Feb 27, 2021, 2:27 AM

#

actually I'd imagine than/hermes/ares take souls to the temple of styx

#

and charon boats them from there

spiral saddle Feb 27, 2021, 2:32 AM

#

no he doesnt

#

ares doesnt

#

that job belongs to thanatos sisters

#

the Keres, thanatos's sisters and gods of violent death

#

i dont even think ares doing it is hades canon

queen lagoon Feb 27, 2021, 2:57 AM

#

Why can't i go to Greece after mom comes back home

#

I had a conversation with her that says

#

"I can't stay up there for long at all without your presence."

clever ruin Feb 27, 2021, 3:12 AM

#

Zag cannot leave the Underworld for a long time.

#

Same as Hades himself

somber estuary Feb 27, 2021, 3:13 AM

#

Both my joke canon and the real possibilities that other characters theorize about support the idea that Persephone being a goddess of growth and life can have a revitalizing effect on her son Zagreus when he ought otherwise to be dying painfully due to lack of darkness/the proxy of a pact/pomegranate juice or whatever it is you believe.

#

Achilles might say that Persephone's blood connection to Zagreus is what lets him last longer with her on the surface even when his darkness is fleeing back to the underworld during the day, because Zag is god of blood and Persephone is god of growing life. Thanatos or Hades might suggest that Zagreus getting killed prematurely or dragged kicking and screaming back by the Styx is due to Hades' pact with the Fates still binding Zagreus by blood connection despite seemingly avoiding being Hades' "heir" due to dying and being resurrected. And that Persephone not being bound to such an agreement allows the part of her in Zagreus to resist.
I would say that Zagreus is made of pomegranates and that Persephone is really good at keeping pomegranate trees alive.

prime mulch Feb 27, 2021, 3:19 AM

eat zagreus

spiral saddle Feb 27, 2021, 3:20 AM

#

hehe pom trees

#

but hades is also good at keeping pom trees alive

peak flicker Feb 27, 2021, 3:22 AM

#

Did Zag and Than just do what I think they did.

#

In his room.

pearl lantern Feb 27, 2021, 3:22 AM

#

They sure did

peak flicker Feb 27, 2021, 3:22 AM

#

Well then.

#

I'm all for that just wanted to make sure

#

(I'm very gay)

pearl lantern Feb 27, 2021, 3:23 AM

#

Don't worry. Meg and Than are good friends, neither of them mind :)

peak flicker Feb 27, 2021, 3:23 AM

#

That was fast lol

#

Wait now someone said they didn't

#

stressed I need to know

hushed oak Feb 27, 2021, 3:25 AM

#

am i understanding the story correctly, are ||zagreus and thanatos more than friends||

peak flicker Feb 27, 2021, 3:26 AM

#

Well at this point I'm sure they're bfs

#

Whether they're lovers or not eludes me

#

The initial scene in the bedroom mildly confuses me

hushed oak Feb 27, 2021, 3:28 AM

#

peak flicker In his room.

awh shucks...i missed it, my volume was on mute at the time

peak flicker Feb 27, 2021, 3:28 AM

#

Yeah there were noises

#

Laughing noises

#

I suppose it's implied

ah okay cool

#

i dig em together

peak flicker Feb 27, 2021, 3:33 AM

Much more than Dusa or Meg, though I suppose that's my own preferences leaking through

You do realize that was way earlier right?

#

peak flicker I suppose it's implied

I already said this.

#

that was a trip

#

like i walked in and i was scared for zag

Than is cringe and weird but so is Zag so they are perfect

this is one of the sweetest interactions in the whole game I think

i got an interaction recently where thanatos and zagreus were talking about when they were kids and than mentioned when he used to have long hair and AAA

that's adorable

oblique vortex Feb 27, 2021, 9:16 AM

Ok so iv realised

#

Thans keepsake means he doesn’t want u to get hurt

#

Megs expects u to get hurt

#

Dusas is a sort of ‘in case u get hurt’

tip, if than is at the balcony and you haven't talked to him yet, running in and out of the admin chamber might get a heart to show up!!

HHJsdhjkdhskj i didnt know that

ofc theres ways to cheese than romance and of course i will be trying that

#

he rarely shows up at all anymore though </3

huh i didn’t know that

#

should try it if he pops up again

dark marlin Feb 27, 2021, 5:44 PM

ohh it has to be before you talk to him?

somber estuary Feb 27, 2021, 6:14 PM

#

Always check who is available before changing rooms because it can make their availabilities change or cause them to relocate and become unavailable, like Dusa.

#

do i really need to play the harp 210 times to complete the achievement? its what the wiki says but i dont know if its true

open berry Feb 27, 2021, 10:23 PM

#

it is true

#

you dont need to do it all at once, and you will still be blocked off by needing a few pieces of dialogue from orpheus after certain numbers of interactions

#

just do it periodically between runs and eventually you'll finish it

sudden spoke Feb 27, 2021, 10:51 PM

#

ah that's good to know actually

#

was wondering whether or not i had to just do it 100 times in a row or something cause Orpheus wasn't saying anything new

open berry Feb 27, 2021, 10:55 PM

#

oh no its total interactions, no worries. orpheus remarks at... i believe it was 20/60/110/210 interactions, so those will be your progression guides. the final convo will finish the prophecy

Is the cause of death the narrator tells at the end of a run actually happening

#

or is it just made up

somber estuary Feb 28, 2021, 5:55 PM

#

Up to you.

#

You could rationalize the more ridiculous ones as the Fates literally having a giggle.

sudden spoke Feb 28, 2021, 6:04 PM

#

some of them are actually ridiculous

#

death by remembering dying so hard that you die?

#

i just take them as the developers having a giggle

autumn tinsel Feb 28, 2021, 6:07 PM

#

the thermal vent steam one is definitely a jab at the game's release on steam

somber estuary Feb 28, 2021, 6:07 PM

#

That one can also just be claimed by the Styx but faster than usual.

autumn tinsel Feb 28, 2021, 6:07 PM

#

And obviously the wall painted to look like the way out, and the banana one, and the farming tool ones are all cartoon related

somber estuary Feb 28, 2021, 6:08 PM

#

Zagreus: don't think about Styx don't think about Styx
Styx: ominous gurgle

#

Thanatos: A worthy rival.

autumn tinsel Feb 28, 2021, 6:08 PM

#

I like the narrator breaking the 4th wall, with the one about him running out of ideas

dark marlin Feb 28, 2021, 6:16 PM

#

Man I feel bad for zag, like the narrator of the story seems to just arbitrarily hate him

somber estuary Feb 28, 2021, 6:21 PM

#

Nah that's just how poetry is.

dark marlin Feb 28, 2021, 6:24 PM

#

Like every time I get to the end of the game there’s just like a gleeful description of the next way Zag dies painfully and it’s really sad

somber estuary Feb 28, 2021, 6:40 PM

#

Dusa being fired has nothing to do with that subplot at all.

#

So... yes?

#

She should have offered it to you immediately after you maxed out the affinity
Maybe your timing was too good with the firing subplot and it took priority over it and now it has to conclude before the next run will continue the ambrosia subplot?

spiral saddle Feb 28, 2021, 6:43 PM

#

yeaaa i did her romance long before the firing subplot even started

#

so its very unrelated

somber estuary Feb 28, 2021, 7:02 PM

#

Yeah, like sometimes the ambrosia related conversations just don't trigger even though they have nothing else priority to say and you have ambrosia on hand so yeah probably RNG now.

Is the narrator Homer?

#

I've heard someone say that, but I've never gotten anything from the game that points to that?

spiral saddle Mar 1, 2021, 12:02 AM

#

theres no canon to who they are

#

just fan speculation

open berry Mar 1, 2021, 12:17 AM

#

the speculation has merit due to: ||1) the poet bust resembles depictions of him 2) interaction with the bust many times results in zag egging the narrator on to speak, and the narrator calling him annoying||

#

also the narrator is technically revealed so make of that what you will #ask-supergiant message

deft sedge Mar 1, 2021, 12:18 AM

#

Either way, no matter who it is..
I’m curious about the explanation for why Zag is the only one that can hear him hehe

#

No one else has commented on the narrator so far for me at least hehe

open berry Mar 1, 2021, 12:19 AM

#

no one else does

#

and i dont think the devs will ever directly answer that

deft sedge Mar 1, 2021, 12:19 AM

#

Maybe it’s all a figment of zags imagination

open berry Mar 1, 2021, 12:19 AM

#

greg's response is probably the closest you'll get, supergiant likes to leave some things to the fan's interpretation

deft sedge Mar 1, 2021, 12:19 AM

#

That somehow knows more then he himself does hehe

somber estuary Mar 1, 2021, 12:35 AM

#

Homer is really the only person who makes sense to me given the rough time period the game seems to take place in and the narrator's familiarity with characters who would have been in Homer's writings.

#

... wait is this entire game possibly Homer fanfiction? Heh heh

spiral saddle Mar 1, 2021, 1:11 AM

#

somber estuary ... wait is this entire game possibly Homer fanfiction? Heh heh

isnt everything homer writes fanfic??

#

like tbh mythology stories in general are just fanfic

open berry Mar 1, 2021, 1:17 AM

#

they are

#

there is no such thing as canon or anything for mythos, much of it was passed around orally for centuries before it was ever recorded

#

which is why i like when media inspired by myth has their own spin on it, like hades does. its all basically free real estate, go wild!

worldly plank Mar 1, 2021, 1:59 AM

#

yeah

when it comes to mythos is all up to interpretation

lots of things are

that's probably why mythos is so popular. you're given enough to work off of, but a lot of free room for your own creativity

spiral saddle Mar 1, 2021, 2:00 AM

#

and yet i feel like basic archetypes and chains are never broken ;w;

worldly plank Mar 1, 2021, 2:01 AM

#

^ that too

#

there are a lot of archetypes/chains for this kinda thing

#

but you don't have to follow that really

spiral saddle Mar 1, 2021, 2:02 AM

#

and yet everyone does ;w;

worldly plank Mar 1, 2021, 2:02 AM

#

it's fun to think out of the box

spiral saddle Mar 1, 2021, 2:02 AM

#

it is but i feel like that hades is the most out of box greek thing for modern day

#

everything else makes me feel so jaded and just like "man, greek for the 100th time, wonder if they'll do research"

#

and or actually make it interesting

#

and supergiant is the only company ive seen really do that

worldly plank Mar 1, 2021, 2:03 AM

#

true

#

the most popular mythos focused media i can think of, besides hades

#

is percy jackson

and that's like

still cookie cutter in a lot of stuff

#

hades takes the risk in making everything have a twist and they did it wonderfully

spiral saddle Mar 1, 2021, 2:06 AM

#

they also paid attention to the small details like ares's boons being curse since thats what hes associated with, aphro having dummy thicc damage since she used to be a war goddess

Escaping is Zag’s hyperfixation

#

Hmm I’m trying to think of any other neurodivergrnt things they or other characters could b

clever ruin Mar 1, 2021, 8:26 AM

#

Have you all considered for a moment that Hades in fact knows perfectly well the measure of everyone?

#

Zag goes from rebellious screw-up to important asset and fixes the family in the process

#

Hypnos over the course of the game becomes incredibly good at his job, impressing everyone

#

If you see the potential in someone and you have literally unlimited time to bring it out, you try things until something works.

#

It's a lot better than just letting them feel bad and be useless

oblique vortex Mar 1, 2021, 8:33 AM

Hmm

#

Also @ what point do people start considering Hypnos as getting good @ his job??

Are there any weapons exclusive boons from gods? Im guessing not and I'm just unlucky lol

There's the Flares which are exclusive to Beowulf

I had not gotten blown kiss yet along with a few other cmbut for some reason I thought maybe they were long range exclusive

torn river Mar 1, 2021, 2:53 PM

#

Blown Kiss is a Tier 2 boon from Aphrodite

#

to get it you first need Aphrodite Cast

sudden spoke Mar 1, 2021, 2:53 PM

#

boons are only boon exclusive unless youre using aspect of beowulf

#

but the beo ones are just renamed casts

#

since they function differently

south wave Mar 1, 2021, 2:54 PM

#

Ahhh that's weird to iv been using alot of her cast lately lol

#

Ahh okay basicly this is for prophecy just though I would mention that

sudden spoke Mar 1, 2021, 2:54 PM

#

for the purposes of prophecies, youre fine

#

beo and normal cast boons are interchangeable

#

so if youre missing specific ones look in the codex to see what prerequisites they have

Eeeeh

Idk

They’re all pretty easy 😗

#

After I started rushing Theseus when he calls for aid he only lasts maybe 1-3 seconds after that so I don’t see the effects much anymore

#

Theseus is just an angry kitten

hardest one is definitely Athena

Don’t see Theseus using her that much myself

With the stray aphro or Poseidon

how do you delete his 50 hp that fast

deft sedge Mar 1, 2021, 3:21 PM

#

Usually my dps by then is high enough I can just rush him..?

And I like doom stacking + privileged status

He has his shield & if he’s not using it..

even on things like FO2 he doesn't throw the spear immediately so you have plenty of opportunity to hit him with the bomb

also I assume there's a lot more dialog to encounter after the epilogue?

open berry Mar 4, 2021, 12:05 AM

#

uhhh that really depends on how far you are with other npc affinity. the epilogue is the end of the main narrative, so you wont really encounter much story after that beyond a few runs worth of post-epilogue commentary

#

besides that all you'll have left is other characters to max affinity with

atomic forge Mar 4, 2021, 2:10 AM

22%.

Once per run, so if you skip him he's gone.

Do you have to romance characters to max out their bonds? I don’t want to cheat on Thanatos :(

when you get them to max hearts, you'll get a romance option

its not forced

the game is literally like "either is fine" for romancing

I was so scared that it would make the relationships weird cuz of what it was hinting at that I stopped giving gifts lol

Nobody there looks like they're much into monogamy, so it's not cheating. Than and Meg know about each other and encourage each other's relationships.

#

I really love that each choice is commented by the characters in a nice wholesome way. For example if ||you agree to Dusa's giving the Ambrosia back, it isn't framed as greedy or something, she just says that she wants to stock up the lounge herself so you're basically giving her space||.

the only difference is that one character has slightly different dialog (there are no major issues with having multiple relationships in the game)

if it was an option

spiral saddle Mar 5, 2021, 4:17 PM

#

royal wadi nothing could have prepared me for how tenderly and lovingly zag says "i died on...

zag cannonically finds hypnos annoying tho

#

theres a line where zag is like "i hate hypnos too" or smth

vestal hill Mar 5, 2021, 4:17 PM

#

he says hes like an annoying little brother 😔

royal wadi Mar 5, 2021, 4:17 PM

#

that was honestly really ooc of him imo.... like..... he's nice to everyone including sisyphus for gods sake

#

why the vendetta against hypnos.... who literally put his entire life at stake for zagreus, and for nothing in return

vestal hill Mar 5, 2021, 4:18 PM

#

?? life at stake

royal wadi Mar 5, 2021, 4:18 PM

thanatos' attempts at helping barely compare to that

vestal hill Mar 5, 2021, 4:19 PM

anyway he doesnt hate him, he just finds him endearing but annoying

than gives me centaur heats and at 32 those are great >:(

smh who needs centaur hearts when you have useful tips like "dont die"

royal wadi Mar 5, 2021, 4:20 PM

Hypnos is moral support

Doesn't Than also literally say "don't die" verbatim lmao

first u need to have gotten a convo where hades talks about getting a sundial

then you have to buy a high enough amount of decorations/contractor items for the sundial to appear

also btw I talked to Sisphyus about why he is there and he told the all story with Thanatos and then the very next chamber I had a Thanatos challenge, is it prewritten in the game or are the fates friking with me?

torn river Mar 5, 2021, 9:27 PM

#

It's RNG my dude

#

Though I do like to think you caught Than as he was making his way to Sisyphus to continue torturing him

#

Also, speaking of, I love how Sisyphus gets somewhat disappointed when he learns you romanced Meg and Than at the same time

leaden light Mar 5, 2021, 9:30 PM

#

Also I'm pretty sure by the actual stories Sisyphus also killed his guests and framed his wife on not organizing him a funeral so he can escape tartarus.

#

so...

#

I don't feel much pity

ruby schooner Mar 5, 2021, 9:38 PM

he didn't frame her so much as he told her not to do it before he died

He told her to throw his naked body into the town square and then proceeded to tell Hades that he had to go back and reprimand her for the indignity if I recall correctly

Miscellaneous Myths: Sisyphus Captures Death

Ever wonder where the whole notion of capturing death even came from? It's not exactly widespread, but it sure seems to show up a lot more than one might expect. Well, worry no longer! Turns out it's all because the ancient king Sisyphus had a fantastic (terrible) idea that worked out great (badly) for everyone involved.

What is ||Charon’s motive with Skelly and Hermes? I guess all the weapons are his doings as well?||

no the weapons are achilles's doing

#

and skelly is just so zag has a punching bag

#

and hermes is hermes :/

So, Charon is like, just helping? I just don’t understand why he goes through all that

spiral saddle Mar 5, 2021, 11:04 PM

#

cuz hes a good boy who not only wants to see the house happy but see the queen again

#

and like tbh what else is he supposed to do

#

he just rows a boat all day

#

he needs something exciting

prisma coyote Good point I guess

Nah nah nah that's not it, JUST HOW MUCH MONEY DO YOU THINK YOU GAVE HIM IN ALL OF YOUR RUNS? the man made a bet and he's getting his rewards.

#

genius

#

And Hermes helps him with the dead because a lot of people are dying I think.

#

And he's very fast so he's the best for it.

since like

#

its just purple whisps

#

so like

#

what if he groans for the sake of echolocation

#

and thats it

#

he just needs to know where he is

oblique vortex Mar 6, 2021, 1:03 AM

#

He can talk he just chooses not to

#

He’s selectively groan

vestal pagoda Mar 6, 2021, 1:04 AM

Or maybe he can talk just fine and groans so that he doesn't have to talk to anyone because social anxiety

When Charon said: "HRRRRAAAAGHRRRRUUNNNGH"... I felt that.

#

CharonSticker

#

I feel like the shops were a missed opportunity to run across certain peeps for some flavor dialogue. Like Hermes discussing business with Charon or Eurydice buying some ingredients or the furies stopping by to make a purchase. Especially that last one. Like, imagine rolling Alecto for the fury battle in Tartarus and then when you get to Elysium she's waiting for you at the shop so that you can see the boons for sale before she spitefully buys one and throws it in the Lethe so you can't have it. Or merely having the opportunity to hear a full and nuanced conversation between Charon and Tisiphone!
