The frequent mention of our boy Zagreus in this run makes me REALLY want either the next update or the official release date so Melinoë gets to meet her brother - please Supergiant Games!

Now that Arachne knows that Hecate was the one who provided the poison that Athena needed to curse her, I wonder how she's going to treat Melinoe now - after all, Melinoe is Hecate's star pupil

24:56 i'm so insane wait is this the first time she's had the vulnerable sprite show up in a conversation with prometheus, let alone any other boss she talks to??? oh my god i'm so crazy. im so insane. i love melinoë and prometheus so much holy shit i didn't get this convo yet... oh my god OTL

I'm sad for Arachne but I'm really looking forward to plot advancement, I want to see what happens next here! I wonder if Arachne's last words in particular will stick with Melinoë (that gods and Titans are the same). That their differences look like hairsplitting to everyone who isn't immortal. So Melinoë doesn't think that Aetos eating Prometheus' liver for ages actually happened? Why? Does she think Prometheus spouts nothing but lies 24/7, or is she unwilling to believe Zeus would enact such a punishment, or both?

hi !! great vid as always, have some thoughts to share ! - i wonder if the way to undo arachne's curse will be in full game, similar to dora's memories and permanently defeating chronos, and i wonder what repercussions, if any, melinoe would get were she to lift the curse - they could never make me hate promy !!!!!! we need more lore !!!!! bc how the hell did he befriend the eagle that was straight up torturing him ???? insane behavior - WHERES ICARUS :( - okay, WHO keeps randomly dropping in on ephyra ?? originally i thought it was odysseus based on the text color, but icarus is the only character we know of that flies and drops bombs from the sky, so like ????? - did we ever get a poly dialogue when using od's keepsake ? or a circe dialogue ? (she's so cute btw, i love her design) i think thats everything ! have a great day hamstir :3

Me, to Hera and Melinoe: KEEP MY HERO'S NAME OUT OF FUCKING MOUTHS! Dionysus is good, bro doesn't have it in him to stay mad for long, apparently. He would party with anyone willing. Also, Melinoe saying Promy's torture "supposedly" happened. The ignorance, I swear. And once again, Promy proves to be a badass. There is indeed one version of the myths where Zeus offers to free Prometheus in exchange for information about which woman will bear a son who will surpass him. There, just like in Hades, Prometheus tells him NOTHING, because he's a beast who cannot break. That's right, Promy, rip and tear until it is done. Not one apology from Hecate, it seems. All she says is that she didn't even want Arachne to know the truth. She's not as cruel as the gods, but still, dick move.

One thing i think is interesting is how different of a rouge-like it is. What i mean is that unlike Hades, Chronos is an actual threat that needs to be permanently defeated which again goes against the concept of a typical rouge-like like the first game where everything stayed the same enough for the gameplay not to change. This doesn't just apply to Chronos but other bosses that would be permanently defeated after Chronos death. It's also shown with some storylines like with Arachne who DEFINITELY wants to be free of her curse no questions asked. Then there's Dora whom i see gerting a redesign once she gets her memories back and Pandora once again. Another difference is that you wouldn't run into Athena, Nemesis or Heracles since again, the villain is defeated. And finally you wouldn't be able to get boons from Hades or fight Cerberus as both of them would be free and live in the House of Hades alongside the rest of Melinoë's family whom you would encounter after going to the underworld route

Hello again! I really love Melinoe's naivity? And also the black/white way she views things. She's so headstrong and determined on her mission that she's unable to see the nuance that surrounds the various situations/encounters she finds herself in (Eris, Dionysus, and Prometheus, for example). I love how she can acknowledge that Zeus' punishment for Promy was a bit... over the top, but is still so deadset on not seeing his point of view. I have many thoughts but I'm sick and can't articulate them all in the way I'd want. Either way, thanks for the vid! Love seeing your thoughts on the matter <33

im legit scared what to imagine for the upcoming updates for hades 2... havent played in a whil because i dont wanna bore myself of it, but yeah. btw any games you're eyeing while you do another haitus when hades 2 is "done" (ie the lines are spoken and everything?)

"Why does Heracles hate his job now?" ffs Hestia you were doing so well.

0:31 i think that persephone in the first game said something about this, when she talks to hades

Yeah, I think we'll all need a while to recover from Arcane's ending XD. I just want to say that my boy Viktor has never done anything wrong, ever, in his life. Lol, Prometheus has probably already seen that Melinoe will react badly when she realizes how shitty her family is. "You shall see where all your certainty gets you." What a badass. And I do agree that foresight, while extremely useful, could be one hell of a curse, especially if you couldn't control it. Boredom aside, what if allowing something horrible to happen will eventually lead to a greater good? Do you allow it to happen or stop it? Dune explores this, and I thought it was very clever. Cute as hell that he talks softly to Aetos after Melinoe is defeated. Hestia feels like the kind of boss that would be a nightmare to deal with. "Your job is amazing, you are silly to complain I make you work 14 hours per day for minimum pay". Or no pay, in Heracles's case. And oh my Prometheus, you're right! Melinoe is the goddess of nightmares. Specializing in dreams would make perfect sense.

Foresight being a curse makes me think that Prometheus is seeing infinite possible futures, and it's taking a large toll on his mental health. He's likely adapted to it, but there's really no telling what he really knows. It's possible that he's manipulating Mel with his words in order to lead her down a certain path. One that may lead to the downfall of Olympus. He doesn't need to win a physical fight, he just needs to put a good amount of doubt in her mind. Making her question certain things that Hecate would rather she not question.

I was wondering where your video was. I think your time stamps needs fixing

In my style, the power of the Minor Underworld Deities. 1) Nyx's powers are Darkness Deity and Night Deity. 2) Moros's powers are Destroyer Deity and Fate Deity. 3) Charon's powers are River Deity and Underworld Deity. 4) Nemesis's powers are Vengeance Deity and Justice Deity. 5) Thanatos's powers are Death Deity and Peace Deity. 6) Hypnos's power is Dream Deity. 7) Eris's powers are Chaos Deity and Deceiver Deity. 8) Hecate's powers are Darkness Deity, Night Deity, Death Deity, Underworld Deity, Fertility Deity, Liminal Deity, Lunar Deity, Magic Deity, Tutelary Deity, Femininity Deity, and Triple Deity. 9) Megaera's powers are Vengeance Deity, Envy Deity, and Oath Deity.

23:17. Can you stop talking about Zagreus? Besides, I don't want him getting involved in those stupid Orphic Hymns with you, I'm talking to you, you louse damned Dionysus. Also, I'm going to find a way to cut this connection. To make sure Dionysus and Zagreus are NOT the same person. If the stupid Orphic Hymns say that Zagreus was reincarnated as Dionysus, then I would be reincarnated as Zagreus as youngest son of Hades and Persephone as Prince of the Underworld as God of Death, Hunting, and Darkness. Or if the stupid Orphic Hymns say that Zagreus was reincarnated as Dionysus, I would find a way to kill Dionysus and take his heart. Then, I will bring the heart to Hades and Persephone to bring Zagreus back as their youngest son. But if the stupid Orphic Hymns are falsehood, wrong, lies, deceptions, and frauds, then it means that the stupid Orphic Hymns have been deceiving and mocking us all these years.

Will you go back to Hollow Knight when you run out of stuff to do in Hades 2? 🥺

Schelemus would have wobbuffet I think

19:42 can't help but hear the song I Knew You Were Trouble each time eris says "trouble".

Gods are such petty little things, aren't they?

I just hope Apollo and I can be humble boys.

You make me cry, I really really really really miss Zagreus and his mother Persephone. I'll not lose them again. I shall keep Melinoe and Zagreus safe and stay away from Zeus, evil Hera, nasty Dionysus, and the stupid Orphic Hymns. I shall kill nasty Dionysus and take his heart if that is what it takes to bring Zagreus back. To make sure that Zagreus is the youngest son of Hades and Persephone as younger brother of Melinoe as Prince of the Underworld. You'll help me, won't you, Hamstir?

03:35. Don't listen to what Arachne says about Athena. If there was a weaving challenge, I would choose Athena because like I said, I hate it when mortals and criminals act arrogantly in front of the deities. Because I hate mortals who act as enemies, crimes, and commit evil deeds, wrongdoing, interrupt, disrupt, and show arrogance before the deities.

10:19 just noticed something with athema's spear, it has an owl engraved to it, could it be the same owl from the first game, if so would that imply that the spear and the owl are the same? Wouldnt be far fetched since hermy has a turtle pet.

Athena showing us that "Goddess of Wisdom" is just a title. No god worthy of the title would feel the need to prove themselves, to punch down just because someone who is no threat to you has an ego. But that's just it, isn't it? Arachne WAS a threat to Athena, because she DID match her skill, perhaps ever surpassed it. And if mortals knew they can best gods, well... Olympus could be in trouble. Prometheus truly is the only one who's truly earned our respect. Melinoe will have to lift Arachne's curse herself. In truth, I question whether Athena even could do it, since she needed Hekate's help to create it. And I'd say Zagreus is most similar to the scatter-minded brother (probably Epimetheus). Remember that boy's room? Hades was always talking about what a mess it is XD. Finally, you let our boy win. It was about damn time. I was half expecting you to somehow kill him again lol

Ok, Athena needs to be humbled cause everything she just said, pissed me off to an unholy degree. Like, that wasn't a lesson, that was her being petty because she no doubt lost. "A lesson to everyone" she just doesn't like the idea of a mortal specifically a human being better at her when it comes to something she specializes in. The Fates probably didn't really care what Arachne said since they have literally millions of lives to manage. Athena used them as an excuse to be an ass which is extremely scummy.

Wait, why don't the Olympians know how Prometheus got free? Is Supergiant not using the myth where Heracles freed him? Or he *did* do it, but isn't saying so. But why would he do that, unless...is he a double agent? He certainly hates the gods enough. And iirc, his role in the Olympian loyalist faction is pretty vague. Am I cooking anything here? I'm so glad you finally got Hecuba, that took forever. But it sucks you can't make any more treats for any of them :(

Hey... Maybe Chronos doesn't have a dialogue with Arachne's dresses, but how about Athena? "What are these garish vestments you wear, Cousin"

Arachne's Pokemon would be Leavanny, because it makes clothes for people I was thinking Decidueye for Artemis Definitely Lunala for Selene. She's supposedly very powerful, so a legendary fits Gothitelle for Hecate, since it uses its psychic powers to conduct magical rituals Athena = Oranguru, since it's a tactician Pokemon Narcissus = Milotic, since its the most beautiful Demeter = Sawsbuck, in its winter form atm Gholdengo for Charon, since it throws money around and rides a boat (surfboard) I suppose giving Dialga to Grandpa feels a bit obvious, but it's bascly the only time themed mon

Of course on the 90 run you talk about Pokemon. 31:15 well timed block on the instakill attack

Dangg what a fun concept! And I agree with most of yours but I feel like Nemesis could go with Zoarark. Lots of fierce Pokémon to pair her with though

I don't really know who would have it, but I just know there's a Chandelure somewhere in the crossroads

Excellent run as always, you made Lim and Oros into one shot cannons, crits are so god damn powerful! I'm excited to see where Arachne's Story goes from here. Will we revert her to human form? Time will tell... won't you Chronos? Anyway, with the Olympic Update coming to a close once you've gotten all of Promy's dialogue, I figured now would be a good time for a Tier List for the Weapons. Just know that this is personal preference and not objective in the slightest, I just wanted to talk about the Weapons while I had the chance. Might do a Familiar's List next video. Weapons: 6. The Argent Skull: Revaal is a finicky little bugger ain't they? The Skull is a weird combo of abilities that don't feel as complimentary as the other attack special combinations, and I really hate having to be on top of finding the skulls and reloading the thing. It's Omega Special is easily the best part of the Skull, but without the Mana to spam it, the Skull feels lacking. I always take more damage then I want to and it forces me into a playstyle I'm not particularly fond of. Her Aspects are interesting, and both Medea and Persephone understand that the best part of Revaal is the special, but without the right Boons, still forces me into unfavorable situations. Revaal is a pretty and unique weapon, just not for me if I can avoid it. 5. The Sister Blades: Lim and Oros, as you demonstrated in this video, can be ridiculously deadly in the right hands, and the right hands are not mine. You might be confused why the Aspect of Pan's number one fan has Lim and Oros this far down. Once again, the Sister Blades are simply not my cup of tea, I always end up taking more damage with them, unnecessary damage, which is why Pan is my favorite aspect. I can't get into a good rhythm with the Blades. Maybe I'll get better with them, but I'm not the biggest fan until then. 4. The Moonstone Axe: Zorephet is a crazy strong weapon, I love using the Omega special on her and she has some of the best aspects in the game. But similarly to Lim and Oros, I sometimes end up taking damage I wish I hadn't, I wish I had avoided. But it can be mitigated with the special and with the Axe's longer reach. I love the Aspect of Charon, I think it is unironically one of the strongest weapons in the game, but too often overshadowed by its flashier, stronger, cooler brother, the Aspect of Thanatos, and as someone who loved romancing Thanatos in the first game... I may have fallen into that trap myself sometimes. Still, I love the Axe, always happy to get it with the Grave Thirsy, but I can't justify put it above the other three. 3. The Umbral Flames: I know, I'm putting Ygnium above Zorephet, put me on trial, but I love the wands, I love just throwing out a whole bunch of stuff in every direction and people exploding. Ygnium brought me some of my earliest victories, and I can't help but love it. And while I feel that Aspect of Moros is a bit weaker compared to the other two, I still have a ton of fun whenever the wands get picked. 2. The Witch's Staff: Descura was my favorite weapon for a long time. It's simple, fun, and doesn't require too much to go from good to great. It leans into the playstyle I prefer, it has great synergy with some of my favorite Boons, and it can rip through bosses I struggle with. I'm always happy to see Descura with the Grave Thirst. 1. The Black Coat: All Hail Xinth, the best weapon in the game, playing with this thing is just busted, it's Special does ridiculous damage, especially when boosted by Zues or Hestia, it's attacks bust through enemies and it's dash attack is one of the best in the game, and it can block. It's like all the best parts of my other three favorite weapons put together into one. Now I'm not a fan of Hex's, I always forget to use them, but SkyFall on the Aspect of Selene is crazy good, I love it so much, and the Aspect of Nyx, take her already great dash attack, and make it so much better. I love Xinth, I beat Chronos so easily with it, easily the most fun I've had with the Nocturnal Arms, Xinth is so cool, I'm so glad they're in the game. Phew, that was a lot, took a lot longer than I was expecting. Still, I hope you liked it! Shadows Guide You!

Yes! I love this game of match the pokemon with another game it's not related to! I have some pairings in mind: Melinoe - Mismagius (I wanna give her the pokemon I want to Hecate since it fits better, but Mismagius looks like a witch, so it 's okay) Hecate - Delphox (Fire AND looks like a witch) Selene - Lunatone/Lunala (Moon Motif) Odysseus - Alakazam (he's smart for a reason) Moros - Absol (Disaster Pokemon and Doom Incarnate) Dora - Mimikyu (Mimikyu doesn't have a permanent form, Dora doesn't know who she is as of this day) Schelemeus - Farfetch'd (idk what to pair with him, maybe just because sometimes his stories are mostly lies 😂) Charon - Lapras (Charon has a boat, Lapras can act as a transportation vessel in water) Nemesis - Zangoose (both of their facial expressions remind me of each other) Circe - Hatterene (Hatterene's bright pink and blue colors remind me of Circe's personality AND Hatterene looks like a witch) Medea - Gothitelle (Same analogy as Circe)

I dunno, I'd give chaos MissingNo. Edit: I'd personally give zagreus an Eevee, and here's why: - zag wanted to help his family to reunite, and eevees in lore are said to want to help others in need - eevee can evolve into many other forms, with diffrent elemental powers... ... just like zag with boons from olympians (ice for demeter, water for poseidon, lightning for zeus, fighting for ares etc.)

Charon could also have mimikyu and for Hypnos I give a Drampa （・◇・）/~~~

i kinda thought promy would have talonflame ngl

0:24. His trident looks fierce and may uncle Poseidon protect Princess Melinoe.

2:06. She looks so Beautiful, Grace, Glory, Splendid, and Magnificent.

1:20. Apollo looks so Ikemen. I hope he and I can play music together and learn humility. 4:09. I agree with you.

Yay, another prophecy fulfilled! Which one will you try for next? Those random zombies that show up sometimes in the main area of Ephyra always remind me of like, cultists. Lol Artemis really tells her fellow Olympians absolutely nothing 😂

I’m glad you’re warming up to Hera. She’s one of my favorite figures in the mythos and I find her story fascinating. Hera is the most powerful goddess in the whole pantheon yet bound into an abusive relationship by her own domain. She cannot overpower Zeus thus she can’t leave or hold him accountable for what he’s done to her. She can only fight him by proxy which wreaks havoc on the mortals Zeus violates. Hera’s story is a deeply tragic one yet she’s rarely treated that way in media.

0:56 I was about to say that- Taste the power, buckaroo! 4:22 "worth the risk" indeed! Great job there! 16:23 Hera looks forward to all this to end and the land to flourish. Demeter is telling her that the war, and thus the winter seems to be far from ending. 31:33 MAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH YOU ACCIDENTALLY WON???? DUDE, YOU'RE AMAZING! This was quite straightforward. Though the number of Duos you got was ridiculous. Didn't even know you could get three in a run. Thought there was a cap, but apparently I was wrong. The Prometheus hurting himself to wield fire is interesting, and it does lend to the martyr characterisation he seems to have. Does he love us that much? Gosh...

17:53 you can skip the last phase in eris with winter harvest, neat.

Nah, you're doing this on purpose at this point, stop lying XD. No way you keep defeating him by accident. And now I'm wondering whether he feels.pain when he uses his fire. I had assumed the fire was now his, and therefofe didn't hurt him, but there's definitely a chance I'm wrong. I hope I'm not. I don't want him to suffer anymore, I want him to be happy. Honestly, worse than the pain of fire is the pain of knowing the future, I imagine. There's no room for relaxation in his life because of it. Relaxing must be almost impossible to him. Maybe there's a way for him to meditate though. The good part of this is that foresight is an OP superpower when taken to its extreme, and this dude can apparently see things billions of years in advance.

Let's get this show on the road. It's Demeter time! I remember her ice scythe 17:55. Zagreus uses Boons of Demeter in Hades 1 and then the ice scythe appears. 23:50. I know it's dangerous for Icarus, but I'd like to see him appear more in her journey.
