How high do I gotta get meg for summon and for the than and meg choice?
It just says get them too high hearts but I don't know how much that is
I'm at the point where megs next heart is locked?
but i believe most every npc has 6 normal hearts, 1 locked, and than, meg, dusa have an extra 3
Oh
yea she has 4 more and once you get the locked one she gives you the companion
the last 3 hearts after that are for romance
for sexy time ;p
god meg is the only one whos been having the heart scenes and it bothers me
i romanced her for the dialogue
but i want than more
omg I want to romance than again
yikes
as shud be
lol i was terrified when i got that sscene
like
i knew zag was in for a ride and i was scared
the whip crack 
wait
WAIT
they do it all together?
@spiral saddle
???????
tell me
yea
I NEED THIS
if you romance them both they have a room scene will both of em
If you romance both Meg and Than, there's a group cut.
YYYEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
OMG
since like
zag you slayer
i was scared for zags safety to say the least
zag is living the dream
just it hits different when you walk into the bedroom and see both of em
by the bed
So do all the locked hearts for ppl mean extra loot?
Or something
we just need the rest of the furries joining in
locked hearts for a majority of the cast is simply for dialogue and little cosmetic things for the trinkets
but a select 6 have whats called companions
I feel sorry for anyone who didn't romance them
essentially summons you can use in run for damage and stuff
I saw some they look cute
they missing out
Ahh
i wanted to romance dusa
Is it like once per run?
1-5 depending on the level of it
Oki
and you get a new item in charon wells that give you one back
So u just play with them equipped?
lemme type out descriptions
So like the dd replenish?
Hmm
Lemme see which have it
battie(meg): 2.5k damage in a line parallel to zags shoulders or the nearest enemy
mort(than): 3.5k in a big circle but slow
shady(sisyphus): 1k damage and some hp, darkness, gem, obol drops
rib(skelly): just a distraction damage sponge
fidi(dusa): just the gorgon enemies on steroids dealing 70 per hit and its a lot
anton(achilles): 1.5k damage to 2 enemies in succession
actually can't wait for thanazagaera scene
all of the companions are gained after completing the corresponding characters "side quest" and unlocking their heart
you then use ambrosia to level them up 1-5
each level getting another use per run maxing at 5 a run but you can only use them once a room
u only need meg's tbh
there are of course limitations like you cant use battie in the tart fight, than in the than rooms, etc etc
all of them have their uses
I like meg and antos
and you cant use them on hades until you get to credits and do some stuff with dad
i just use battie all the time
Antos is better single target damage
u can use skellys and bouldy in hades
i like mort but im not good with it
But meg is better in speedrunning and mostly high heat
yea yea this ^^
achilles, meg, than, dusa all need permission from dad first
which is gained i think after getting to credits and getting his hearts to 4 i think or smth
I think u need max hades hearts and then some dialogue
^
yea smth like that
u need max hades hearts and at least 2 companions unlocked
you see battie and anton used more than the others
rib and shady are better for newcomers imo
I'm using all of them 10 times for the codex
mort and fidi are just if you want to tbh
lol i havent touched half of them so the codex is empty but they are all almost max level :3
wonder how many have gotten all of hypnos enemy dialogue
hypnos enemy?
i dont use the top row of trinkets much at all
I have all trinkets maxed :p
just the dialogue for each enemy he gives you when you die to it
ahh
do u need that dialogue for codex?
ok thank f
yea codex is just talking to npcs, killing enemies, collecting things, and using companions and fishing a think
everything that happens naturally
about the romance
I think SG nailed it cos it's subtle enough that kids won't understand but obvious enough that older kids/adults will
tbh it kinda bothers me how much more reactive the meg one is. more of the cast is like "oh cool" but with than like only 2-3 npcs say anything and even then its not much :/
and like no one talks about dusa ;w;
well dusa you don't actually romance
fair enough
but like, with the amount and variety of dialogue in this game? I have 0 complaints
ppl wanna forget about the than thing
so is nyx, meg and seph
and tbh long hair than is just amazing
and aphro
god i forget that seph = persephone in this context
and so i think sephiroth
idk who that is
thanatos is creepy and has a horrible sense of style
and im like ahh yes my favorite cthonic god, sephiroth from ff7
^^truuueee
they nailed the character depictions
and can we all just acknowledge how both of sephys dresses have pockets
aphro has the face of a man
wut
yuh
ares is the hottest followed by dio brando
wrong
sg employees looking at this chat like "stop simping over our 2d fictional characters"
i mean thats what this room is for, no?
of course
what else is there to discuss about the story
other than which characters are the hottest
theres the smol chariots making kitty sounds
hades is my fav game of all time
or atleast tied in first place
with dishonored and bioshock
but definitely fav roguelite
hades is ight
i like transistor more ngl
like hades is a wonderful game i just like the vibe of transistor more
haven't played transistor, didnt rly appeal to me
I love bastion tho
bastion is a hidden gem
i have transistor and never touched it :>
Bought Transistor expecting a Bastion/Hades style gameplay loop. One level in and I realized that it was significantly different from what I was expecting, and refunded it
that's fair enough
I play games because I want to have one ooga button and one booga button, and where I can mash them to win anything, because i am best caveman
besides, I kinda feel like Transistor has the worst of both worlds insofar as realtime and turn based gameplay. But at any rate, this is #h1-story-discussion , not #hate-on-games-other-people-legitimately-enjoyed.
same
its like proto-hades in a way
the chipsets or w/e they're called remind me of boons a lot
Wow really I never knew that
anything special i need to do to unlock lyre prophecy
i've been playing it a lot but still not yet achieved
210 times
You have to play it 210 times & talk to orphy
Not if youâre on switch..
I didn't count, but other ppl have :)
no as in, how would i know once i've completed?
I just calculated the clicks per minute then did some quick maths to determine how long I needed to continuously click for
which is dumb but whatever I had autoclicker
I think it's 1 click/2 secs
ummmm i cant do maths
god my brain is fried I need to sleep
the music gets better
on 210th he says "i can play" or something similar
He comments on it, and when you see orphy heâll have dialogue for you
I did it in increments
Just played once every now & then
I believe orphy has 4? sets of dialogue or maybe it's 6 idk
Ye, something like that
But you can just get it all at the end according to those who did all 210 at once
Or smth like that
^can confirm this works
I also found the sounds from the lyre fun
also if you're in the middle of orphy euridice quest you'll have to finish that before you'll get the dialogue from orphy
which is what happened to me
I didnât even get the quest until long after I was done w them
I finished their quest before epilogue & only got the lyre post epilogue I think?
Thatâs me tho
for me I got the lyre quest kinda in the middle of orp/eur quest so I had to go several runs before I could finish it
Optimal lyre playing is once per run because there's such a long delay between after playing it and when you can play it again that you save time by just playing it once, then dash canceling towards the courtyard to do another run, and rinse repeat until you're finished
Although you'll likely want to do all the tier 1 plays at once since they waste the least amount of time between plays and doing 210 runs to do lyre sounds inefficient
but after you get past the single note plays it's definitely optimal to do the plays once per run so you're not losing out on that time for the tune to play
I've put some thought into routing an "All prophecies" speedrun so I figured out how to optimally play the lyre
pretty sure it's gonna be like the last prophecy you do tho
i'm still stuck on a couple.. haven't managed to get some legendaries and duos
and i havent done the SD runs with LC
You donât have to combine them if you donât want to
I just did a bunch of random ones for the prophecy
Until I had them all
yea i finished the pact one. but haven't really tried SD and RR yet. i basically progress up the Heat for every weapon. i'm still trying to max them all the aspects.. so far spear and fists are 11 the rest are like 4 or 5 lol
Ye, I do +1 heat at a time too 
Well, since this is no longer story Iâll leave 
Iâm sorry for derailing the chat
I want a hades stealth game now
The alternate reality where zag decides to sneak out instead of fight his way out
i think he cant do stealth cause hades can see him the whole time he's trying to escape right?
cause occasionally he'll be like stop this mf and send guys after you
I mean he obviously steals his dads helm first
hitman-style stealth escape from the underworld đ©
Mhmm
satyrs have sentience i think
Those poor satyrs
They are the followers of Dionysus
And possibly pan?
Theyâre not really good though, but they are sentient
well pan is just a god of madness :/
yk
pan
panic
get it
but yea once you think about it morally zag isnt the best
âPan, in Greek mythology, a fertility deityâ
My head canon is that the satyrs were just trying to find shelter from the cold
He's fast! He's smart! He should really put on some pants! It's history's most marketable deity, Hermes himself!
(but red, who are those other two guys?)
(shhhhh)
Want a "Mischief Time" shirt or mug? Get one HERE (https://overlysarcasticproducts.threadless.com/designs/mischief-time/) or HERE (https://www.cafepress.com/overlysarcasticproducts.4...
talks about pan a bit in this
And thatâs why theyâre also killing the rats
Competing for space
Cuz you know that in the satyr sacks you got vermin sometimes
I still donât watch those vids
I just half remember pan as a wild god & something w fertility & stuff
And I know satyrs did a lot of .. canât say here
But not good
Admin chamber
Something about the chamber I unlocked
Contractor purchase
What do I do?
Talk to nyx
I unlocked the admin thingy
Go to admin chamber if you've already unlocked it
I don't see anything about orpheus at work orders
I did
It'll be there probs
Hades not at his desk
ok then go to admin chamber, see if there's anything there
Nyx will tell you where it is, you do something (like a run), you go to admin chamber & find the work order
Itâs a spot
A dot
Check contractor
It's been about 5 runs since then
Ye
huh, weird
Yeah
Yes
I talked to that a while ago
Maybe?
Just keep talking to nyx and checking work orders i suppose
First page
go to the back of the admin chambers, then you will find a glowing yellow dot, interact with that and then go to the contractor and go to work orders, then you will find the work order to free orpheus
which is to have orphy and eurydice at lock heart
if you cant find it then you already found the work order
scroll down
Last one I see is the erebrus gate one
hmm
because i think the first time you unlock the admin chamber there will be a couple of yellow dots to interact with
Nope
Who needs that old geezer when you can do stuff on your own amirite
Hmm I'll reset a run
yes
OH GOD I got 4 diamonds
From the prophecy
Yay!!
What do I spend it on?
I got 5 rn
ambrosia
no
What do I use ambrosia for?
Hearts
spend it on Work Orders first
unless you really like the music
After lock
I've been to urning it into blood
To max relationships
Ahh
or you can do this
You will need at some point
Wait does giving meg ambrosia mean I max her?
wait
For her lock heart?
You canât give until after you unlock the heart
I'm right before the lock heart for meg
keep killing meg and then she will talk to your in your chambers, then that will unlock the heart
Ahh oki
then give her ambrosia to get her companion
Have to talk to you in the chamber 2 times
So no ambrosia for her yet?
not yet
no
Wanna speedrun and maybe get the dialogue then
just do a run
Thatâs optional
if you wanna speed run then do it
Nah I wanna see how fast I can go with beo or hera
Just a question, did Nyx tell you where in the admin chamber the work order was supposed to be, or was it just a convo about the admin chamber?
Just a covo
Aah
Like hypothetical
You do need to see hades then
After that youâll have a chat w nyxie about the location of the work order
So the answer is still to do a run 
Alr
do i have to reach || the end credits by beating hades 10x || to unlock hidden aspects? cause every time i talk to achilles it just progresses the main story instead of him mentioning the spear
Do you have 5x titan blood invested in Spear Aspects and have you been investing Nectar?
i have 5 different aspects unlocked on various weapons
5 non zag aspects unlocked and have i think made it to final boss
yea
you just havent gotten lucky yet
yea for some reason weapon dialogue has low priority
maybe once main story is finished and he wont need to talk about it anymore
ive gone a while without getting waking phrases when they just say one liners instead
that sucks đ
yea its all just luck
lol its a trip to say the least
my favorite weapon
highest heat and best time with it đ
bow is my favorite weapon by so far that it's not even close lmao
im probably gonna max at least 3 of the aspects before maxing any other weapon
the only reason i played any other weapon was cause i wanted one win with each
keep at it, she'll show up eventually
Do you need to be wearing a fully leveled up broken shackle to complete the Sisyphus prophecy?
is it even required for his prophecy?-
Just wondering...must be on the wrong side of RNG
i don't think you need it
I am 80+ runs in and usually (always?) go to his chamber when given the chance and still have not completed it
you need to void his contract, which requires close relationship with nyx and access to admin chamber
I have been doing all those things asap
so you need some discussions with nyx (and also meg, since she's the one who punishes him)
oh right wait
so the step you're missing is
did sisyphus never ask about being freed yet?
maybe my EM is keeping me from meg dialogue
i don't think he has
seems to be getting close though
are you close with meg too? i assume you at least have 6 hearts with everyone (except dad)
I have full hearts with almost everyone
Hypnos, Artemis, Hermes, Achilles, and Patroculus or however you spell these names
those are the only ones I don't
you got all of them right except Patty
did Zagreus ever ask Sisyphus about helping him?
he did recently
maybe that's why, that's a requirement to even be able to talk to nyx, meg and others about sisyphus' contract
well for now just keep on playing, yeah maybe turn off em1 even though i wouldn't be surprised if she actually talks about him in the lounge, but just to be sure i guess, talk to nyx and all
idk what else to add sortry
It's fine. I'll just keep playing, thanks. đ
for meg, keep fighting her - she has to show up in your chamber 2 times
And than?
beat him?
?
in your contest
after you get to his locked heart, beat him in the contest
Alrighty
then you'll get some dialogue & stuff
Ok
Fr
How am I supposed to get the work order for orpheus?
I stg i haven't been able to find it
did nyx tell you where the file is in the admin chamber??
like where
she'll say a string of greek stuff then you just go into the admin chamber, find it, then the work order pops up
both eury and orphy need to be at locked i believe
need to have given orphy good riddance to sing
There's always one piece of advice for getting certain story elements to come:
just keep playing. The system of working towards it.
90% of the story can be done just by playing and talking to characters every time you get the chance
just finished my 9th clear đ€ || excited to finally finish up my keepsakes collection and get non-main-story dialogue from achilles so i can start unlocking hidden aspects||
Wait u on 9th and no achilles thing yet?
I did my 3rd and got that dialogue idk y tho
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/773788546363293716/813642404418289704/death.mp4
Nobody:
Apparently Zagreus on his 30th clear:
Yup it's mad annoying
Oof
zagreus after utterly humiliating his father by defeating him in less than a minute for the 143rd time be like:
I only got hidden aspects after like 60-80 attempts, even more for my friendn
i have brought the 3142 sigil, visited chaos twice, but dont see some sort of cutscene between chaos and nyx?
Just getting unlucky
wait
Both me and my friend got the dialogue on our 3rd chaos
there was
did u delete somethign
So try to get chaos again :p
yes, tried again and it works as intended now
Alt tab is the thing that let's you switch between apps quickly, meg
ok cool, sry I'm tired and I was so comfused I thought I sent msg in the wrong channel
I'm gonna keep calling you meg for megumin
Oke
But yeah alt tab allows you to switch from an app to another app without mouse
Usually helpful on full screen
oh i think need to buy sigil > 1 run > trigger nyx acknowledge of sigil brought > some cutscene occurs
you will need to die or clear to allow new dialogue
very interesting question
there might be something on the wiki on a quotes page but I'm not sure
:o stella said bad word
Just got the end credits! and wow || was not expecting hades to let me past without a fight ||

if i did my 10th run on 4 heat do i still get credit for that heat even though || i didnt fight hades ||
true!
believe so
i think i did it with ||3 heat|| and still got credit
the only thing you can't do that on is ||63 (64 for hell mode) because you can't unlock the final pact until post ending|| otherwise it always works
I just got the Extreme Measures version of the Theseus fight. || Those ARE Gatling spear launchers, right? I'm pretty sure that if Daedalus figured out how to reverse-engineer the Rail, then improve upon it, people would be more worried about it.||
so i thought after finishing the story achilles would finally stop talking about the story and give me || secret weapons || but no now he's simping for || patroclus ||
fml
i just want || ramaaaaaaa ||
?? You're at post-game without ||guan yu||???
Gotta stop giving him nectar so that his talk pool runs out
I think you need to unlock ||Guan Yu|| to unlock every other hidden aspect
LOL i did the same
i had the achilles-patty story trigger at the same time that i was gunning for hidden aspects
and it became a mess
took me like 10 runs to finally get guan yu
Lol
I've beaten meg about 20+time now
Since I hit her locked heart
I stg she does not want to come to my room
Like COME on just progress PLZ
do u have amby?
And she's always in the lounge
Ye
I got 1
But it just lets me only talk
No gift
ummm, have you unlocked the locked heart?
that would make sense
lol
just keep progressing all the cthonic gods
and you'll get there eventually
how many times have u beaten hades?
u might need to max his hearts\
icr
check the wiki homie
Last I checked it said nothing but I'll check again
Hello
I need a bit of story help
To reach the plan
Do I have to give every god ambrosia?
I think it's most gods, you can miss one?
no
you need to have a bond with 6 olympian gods
except for demeter, you can get the epilogue even if shes at the locked heart because her bond is post-epilogue
How do I get hades to give me his keepsake
No, though ofc rng is still a thing dialogue wise
You just have to give hades nectar
More then once
And to do that you just have to keep beating the game
Gotchu thx
How has meg not done anything
I'm at her locked heart
But thanatos has talked to unlock his locked heart?
Beat her
You beat him
I did that one
Yes
But not meg somehow
But you beat him
Oh
You just have to keep fighting Meg
Up to you
Finally, ||set Sisyphus free of the Furies!!!|| Nyx literally disappeared from the House for around five runs making like difficult
What is a unlocked heart?
lol i started to ignore || patroclus || to try and force achilles to talk to me about || hidden aspects || and now he disappeared
it means you've done the favor
game hates me smh
and now you can give them ||ambrosia|| to progress relationships
they trust you now basically
just off duty
I always thought the whole "give someone alcohol" thing was a sort of, well... unnatural way to progress relationships
technically nectar is just the drink of the gods
especially since so many of them say "you don't need to give me things like this" and the correct response is to keep giving them
we just equate it to alcohol in here
which seems like a red flag to me
it's whatever drink they want it to be
this isn't about the drink
just like ambrosia is whatever food
it's not that it's alcohol, it's a matter of respecting boundaries
they reject it because of the rarity in the underworld, or because it's forbidden
Hades doesn't allow it, so by accepting they are breaking the rules
that's why meg "confiscates" it
well, let me put it this way.
Let's say your friend hands you a loaded Glock out of "kindness"
I would ask how they got ahold of it since you can't buy guns in Norway
Can't tell if joke or actual bad analogy
but I think the issue being pointed out here is the insistent gifting to get close to someone, regardless if they want it or not
yeah, that's essentially what I'm trying to say
it's valid and I understand your point but at the same time it's a standard video game mechanic in sim type games
I just don't see them as not wanting it I guess?
unless it's dusa maybe
to me it just looks like they are nervous cuz it's forbidden
maybe than too
but I can kinda see it I guess
artemis voices distrust of zag's intentions for his repeated gifting, up until she does an abrupt 180
than just plays mysterious and aloof to avoid appearing capable of being taken advantage of
I just read that as her not being comfortable getting something from a male in general
until she trusts you
yeah and she had a valid reason for being suspicious. but doesn't negate that she says something about it more than once
zag doesn't have any malicious intent but there are instances in dialogue where i feel he kinda.. gets overzealous in his kindness and over steps boundaries
guess it just goes to show that Zag is just like any other high born & raised prince then 
If he wants it to happen, it shall happen - no matter what anyone else says or thinks about it
in the classic sterotype of the prince that is
well, classic in my lightnovels 
Guys
I haven't completed the story completely yet
I just want to know if these have any meaning (myths and stuff)
Nothing directly stated in game.
At least, as far as I'm aware.
I have 73 hours in, have the epilogue done, and haven't heard anything about them.
nah
after the epilogue is just bonding with people
and completing the codex i guess
speedrunning if its your sort of thing
Oh, I got the credits like, 45 hours in
Last time I played ||we had the party with all the gods||
yeah
I was expecting more honestly
like, maybe being able to ||walk around and talk to each of the gods personally||
I know I'm basically nitpicking the one grain of uncooked rice in a whole 3-course sushi meal at this point, I was just surprised that the level of care and character just sort of ended there
I love the epilogue
at the end of the day the only criticism I have about Hades' story is that I want more of it
Maybe I loved it cuz it was more then I expected 
maybe we'll get some dlc in the future, who knows
same, i came for gameplay
loved the story
I imagined the epilogue as just a dark screen with the narrator talking about what happened - like reading a book on the mythology
isnt that what it was lol?
With the text appearing on screen ala death msgs
Not getting the art & stuff
So I was pleasantly surprised
meh i feel the epilogue was underwhelming
couldve done better
again still pleased
Just imagine:
Greece, a fanservice DLC
i want more gameplay
more gods, more boons
more variety

story would be fine too
consider this:
Steam Workshop
true
Iâm fine with no dlc 
there is still mods out there
But I know Iâm in the minority
i feel the game lacks a bit of content, gameplay wise
which they made up for in story
Supergiant always leans deep into story though
I canât say it lacks content until I run out of it
And Iâve yet to do that
So for now itâs safe
I feel like their design philosophy is to use video games as an interactive medium in such a way to tell stories that cannot be told through any other medium
i did lmfao
both story and gameplay
I'm of the belief that a 10-hour game worth playing twice is far better than a 20-hour game barely worth playing at all. But I'll settle for a 300-hour game over both of those
facts
only reason i made it that far was approval process
if it wasnt for it i probably wouldve ended at 100
which is still fine
Surely you mean for a roguelite? Since you did play 300 hours.
I don't see you mention the game's genre anywhere, I'm just noting that there is a LOT to do, so compared to your average game, 100 hours is a pretty long time.
i did say something about the genre somewhere
Roguelite > perma upgrades
Roguelike > little to no perma upgrades
here
They definitely shaved gameplay for story, comparatively to contemporaries like Isaac, but Hades isn't short on content at all.
Roguelikes are usually more brutal
meh i call them both the same lmfao
core game is still the same
go die repeat
is my main genre
Theyâre still different tho
ok
Iâm not sure Iâd be able to compare Isaac or gungeon to hades just yet 
Hades is much easier
couldnt agree more, thats exactly what I've been saying the whole conversation
reading the wrong way lol
im not complaining
Okay, I missed you saying "Hades is light on gameplay, heavy on story for a roguelike."
I asked for that clarification but used the wrong word.
đ
I totally see how it read that way, my B. This is why you always scroll 10-15 minutes up in the chat to get more context.
I try to use the "right" words when appropriate, but it doesn't really matter recently.
True roguelikes are so niche that lites are the de facto inheritor of the name.
Most games usually just, stop
They make the game, full story, full game, end
I've never seen so many people ask for dlc before for a game, I'm happy with just having a coherent story and good game play without having to add more?? What's wrong with that, playing what we have? The game just comes with all possible dlcs at once if you played EA lol
Especially games with story, they just have an ending, and it perfectly makes sense, I just don't understand how so many people expect nowadays for a game to have extra paid content???
They wanted good old expansions like how witcher 3 does
Its not greedy if the base game already have massive amount of content
And actually plays like a full complete game
at this point if i wanted more content, new room layouts, new hammers, boons etc would be great
I wish you could fish during the Hades fight... just to flex on your dad. Or maybe to get a special secret cut-scene where you fish with him. Maybe if you have Poseidon/Zeuz boons it can be a family affair
There's gotta be like... one frame during which you can fish between phase 1 and 2
Even if there isn't, it's more convenient to think that there's a useless fishing speedrun tech
@frigid kindle #h1-builds-and-combat message MY GUY.
?
Every time Meg says that line I go full 
Aww, ||Zag can't stay with Persephone for very long each time ||
đ
How do I progress orpheus and eurydice and also how to learn the harp. I talked to both so much and they don't say much anymore, got both to 5 hearts. and I play harp every time I go out, I only once got dialogue where orpheus would try teach me
Itâs 210 times total for the harp
jesus
And for orphy & eury you have to get the work order to free orphy - you need Nyx at 5 hearts for that
got nyx at 5 too
And orphy has to sing again
total
So long as the total is 210 it doesnât matter when you do it
You donât have to do it all at once
You also donât have to wait between runs
Itâs up to you
Then you need t he dialogue from Nyx about admin chamber
First to get admin chamber if you donât already have it
Then itâs a chat w hades about the contract orphy has
Then thereâs another chat w Nyx about where to find the work order in the admin chamber
Then you go find it & buy it at the contractor (first page - might have to scroll down)
is the work order different to the desk with quests for rewards? I got everything from the contractor first page
Ah I can do it all at once thats more relieving
are you on pc
yeah
get an autoclicker for keyboard
Itâll only show up at the contractor if youâve picked it up from the admin chamber
2 secs/click, do the maths, set a timer, start clicking, then just vibe on ur phone while you wait
Cool cool
also exit the room after ur done to save game
I have to pick it up from admin chamber? I thought that just showed me my runs and some weird blood drink
No
bought it, just need to play it more
Different quest from mine
I told you already - Nyx will tell you where to go find it in the admin chamber
idk whats going on sorry
2 quest help requests at once
gotcha
Thatâs what 
but yah what shadow said
You have to have had the chat with hades about Orpheusâ contract first
Only after that will Nyx talk about the location
right. I'll have to see, I haven't seen hades in ages because I always get to him
Then you head to the back with the scrolls, look for the new dot to interact with, interact with it & boom
Should now show up at the contractor
Might have to do a run first to reset house
He can still show up at the house even if you beat him đ
Okay
wait hol up a sec
if zag doesnt die in the styx on the surface because he's still technically in the underworld, why didnt persephone just tell him that the first time they met so he could stay longer???
oh wait we dont need to spoilerize things in this channel
because the game wants you to keep playing
yes obviously but outside of that
idk
everybody has that question when they get the ending
and nobody has gotten an answer
idgi
there has to be some dialogue bit addressing that, right?
dialogue moment
i dont pay attention to the dialogue anymore because i dont have much dialogue left
maybe its just that she actually hates zag and wants to see him die a lot
The Styx takes him back. I don't think he can go into the Styx and remain in place.
mfw i remember you can run out of unique dialogues
bruh you thought that the dialogue just kept going
||Surprised to get the waking phrase of Malphon from Asterius.|| Who'll give the bow's phrase then? Only that one aspect remains
|| Artemis ||
Ahh makes sense. Thansk!
the waking phrases were cool to figure out
I had to look up ||Lucifer|| because ||Zooz|| just would not ever give it to me for some reason
cant believe i just got pranked into spending a bunch of titan blood đ
gotta spend them on my last two contractor upgrades real quick
then i'll do that going forward tho
thanks for the tip!
just got my first ||companion|| thanks skelly â€ïž
finally i have a use for some of my 22 ambrosia lmao
i've been talking a lot to || meg || to try to get hers but she's been missing the past couple runs so no progress there and i've been trying to talk to || sisyphus || too
one of time times I got to hades he got salty and started talking about how the only reason I got so far was because of the mirror. so I tried disabling all darkness upgrades (use keys to reset) and tried to get to him again, but I haven't managed it yet. anyone know if he actually says anything to acknowledge it if you pull it off?
and also you should not use keys to reset the mirror, use ||routine inspection, its a heat modifier||
rip, wish i knew that i've spent like 5 keys on resetting mirror lol
it's not really a build question I was just curious if there's dialogue for it
i dont think so
because somebody beat hades on a fresh file first try and they didnt get any dialogue
but probably because it was their first time seeing hades on the save file
i also just watched a vid and they did not get special dialogue but they got a title ||100% darkness free||
neat
is there any reason to max out skelly's favor once || you complete the zag sword quest ||?
other than completion
you get the || companion || just from the first || ambrosia ||
yeah ik
but to max him out you have to give him the ambrosia
three ambrosia
which will give you the companion
nah thats what im trying to say
the first one gives you companion
then you can give him two more
yeah
so the last two are just story?
Its just for the bond
well there is more story after you max him out
when you give him ambrosia that doesnt trigger any unique dialogue
he just thanks you for the ambrosia
ah okay
Dusa storyline is abit inconvinent to progress. Talking locks out giving ambroisa and vice versa
Need to quit game to see both
Dusa isn't the only one to do that. Thanatos also likes to play "pick one" a lot, since lots of his dialogue makes him go play fetch with dead people instead of talking things through like a responsible adult deity.
is there some sort of requirement to get orpheus ||and euridice back together||? i got the prophecy but i have no idea how to get that story line progressed
similar to learning ||how to play the lyre||, i got the dialogue where zag says soemthng about orpheus teaching him
You need || nyx, orpheus and euridice to 5 hearts before it progresses ||
ahhh
For the || lyre || i believe you have to || buy one from the broker ||
i didnt|| have euridice to 5 hearts||
Ah, that'll do it
already did that
Story should progress pretty quickly after that
do i need to strum it in my room a particular amount of times?
wait do i need to ||get them together|| before i ||learn the lyre|| or somethin?
I dont think so, and i think the number of times is random but make sure to talk to orpheus whenever you see him
You need to strum it to like 200 ish times, but they lowered it so idk
Oh not random then, just a big number
But ueah its still dialogue progression so just keep strumming between runs
ohh
just do it a bunch of times then talk to orpheus?
im not getting much unique dialogue from him
like nothing with the ! above him
I guess so, it should be pretty obvious when you get the right dialogue
good to know, thanks
Actually now that i think about it why didnt i buy it from broke before i did the other quest
Now it'll be a lot harder to talk to him smh
also unrelated but i love the storyline where asterius and theseus ||argue then they get a new attack after that ||
Top tier writing
honestly
and the voice acting makes it so much better
i hate theseus but i loved that interaction
whats the voiceline for zagreus saying ||he can play ||
Way it worked for me was ||start with quite a lot of uses at first, and then strumming a few times with each death||, heading outside inbetween to get new dialogue loop with NPCs, then rinse and repeat. It seemed to progress at a natural pace that way.
You'll know you succeeded when ||interacting with the lyre produces an actual brief melody instead of random pieces of string torment||.
However, what I noticed was that it created some sort of a dialogue backlog, especially in congruence with the ||Orpheus & Eurydice|| storyline, so if you're also on that quest, there may be a conflict of priority holding you back. Just die a few more times to unclog it. (A weird sentence in any other context, I'm still getting used to it.)
Canât remember, but youâll know when youâve hit it 210 times - and if not just do a run & see if orphy has new dialogue for you đ
Note that it isn't ||hit 210 times at the same run & done, but Orpheus needs to spur you on about three times|| before it's actually over. While the math doesn't reset, the audio progress won't happen until you talk to the related NPC.
You can however hit it 210 times at once
And then orphy will hit you with the dialogue all at once or so
Itâs been done by many players
Works just fine
That you can. As I say, math doesn't reset. Just needs the four rounds of talking before you'll be able to hear the result ||while playing the lyre|| or before it counts as a completed Prophecy.
Talk to him if he's available. Note that he may also space out and simply not be there, then you'll need another dialogue loop. (Many embarrassing Tartarus deaths happen just because you want to talk to people.)
(Also at least I think it's four, including the starting dialogue. It's definitely four-ish. Generally, if you're unsure if you're done, confirm it with the ||lyre||.)
Youâll play good & know when youâre done
Plus prophecy will be done
Do the favor
They all have different favors
Like with Artemis itâs listening to her tell lots of stories about a nymph friend
With ares I think it was killing a bunch of enemies?
And Aphrodite needs you to have a bond with 2/3 love interests
10k, if I recall correctly. For Ares, that is.
theres a pinned guide in this channel
i can play the lyre now but im still not getting any new dialogue from orpheus?
it's just 210 times total đ
i already played the 210 times, it plays a small melody
dialogue RNG
id like to imagine that you just sat there for 30-40 mins straight playing the lyre and counting how many times you did it
what does the advance thing in hades' room do that costs 1k darkness and 10 keys
đ
