    As soon as 32:29 came around with that army of pinhead fish, I asked myself if he is going to recall that cast can root them and channeling it can one hit dozens or is he going to kill them with only attack and special. Guess I'll keep watching and see when he starts using it. edit: so never, he does realize about 35 minutes into the second video playing this. Honestly it feels SG though cast was so underused in the first game that they made it the strongest attack and utility move in game.

  • @mikos6353
    @mikos6353 21 день тому +62

    Its funny to me how people say that combat is much worse in Hades 2 because its slower. Easiest way to play H1 was to spam dash and be invincible almost all the time, you can't do that in the sequel and that alone makes the game much cooler. Spamming Athenas dash was such a braindead strat, I hated that

    • @user-lb5cp5mw4u
      @user-lb5cp5mw4u 21 день тому +12

      But this is slower not only because of the dash. Omega moves are obnoxiously slow for a melee build and half of all the boons rely on them, requiring you to disengage before using. Sprinting is also heavily incentivized but attacks cancel it. There are no enemies that punish ranged builds and many that reward it. They could get rid of dash spam without screwing up all the fight mechanics.

      It's amazing and I love it. The only issue I can think of that bothers me is how similarish all the boons feel. In the 1st game for example for casts basically every single one of them was different depending on which god you picked which made it really fun messing around with different stuff, as for Hades 2 you dont have as much options. Then again the game is in early access and I feel like we can place good faith on Super Giant on making the game even more amazing

    I looked into the assets used in HADES (1) not that long ago and was blown away by how all character animations are actually BINK files. That's a format typically used for splash screens and cutscenes/cinematics, ability demonstrations, etc.
    I've never seen any other game use BINK files in this way.

The whole 80% of servers only allowing raids on weekends or certain hours is dumb af. & the entire set of bosses are just dumb. its essentially just a PvE game, and the PvE is so mid theres not really any reason to keep grinding. You realize that really quickly on, and Asmon wouldnt like it after the 2nd or 3rd dumb boss.

      After playing Hades for 100+ hours, tried this one and refunded ... The main character was just bland. Too perfect, too pure, to honest. Not even close to Zagreus, who was this rebellious child wanting to see his mother once more. In this you're just superman physically and mentally.
      The combat is an outright downgrade, Hades was faster gameplay, while that ended up being an addictive run when you unlock harder map. Now the other thing I really hated here was how there is a lot of progression currency to get. Sounds good, but all it does it take space for room rewards. Instead of feeling the build by getting power ups every few rooms, now you get 1 power up in like 4 rooms. Some enemies just demand you to use the spell that stuns, literally limiting your way to play. The constant yelling of the main character after every attack becomes a noise. Now of course it is divisive politically, but I didn't mind that in Hades 1 when the gameplay was so fun. Here I felt like the starter weapon was just not fun. The character I controlled was not interesting, the music wasn't new/just a lamer remixes of original ones, the story is nowhere near as compelling as in Hades 1. Compare the story of kid going through hell just to see his mom for few seconds, doing so again and again and again. Compare that to this, a strong sister going to kill a god to save Hades and Zegreus who somehow got caught. Where is the cool story in that, a hero with no struggle saves the day and proves to everyone how strong she is. Boring. Then the main hub, it felt so vibrant in Hades 1, every time I died and swam from that blood river all tired, went next to my father Hades who was so focused on his work and just told me few remarks, while Orpheus sang in the background all depressed. Even the death animation was really brutal and cool. Here you don't even get that brutal death animation, and you don't come out from blood river, you just reanimate.
      I haven't found a single aspect that was anywhere near as good as it was in Hades 1. I don't think this is a bad game, not at all. But, it doesn't do itself any favors by naming itself Hades 2. In the end, it's a decent rogue lite. While Hades 1 is a masterpiece. Not going to lie, after I refund it, I reinstalled Hades 1 to replay it from the start. Hades 1 is so good, if you want to play something similar, just to play the same game twice. It is still as good, and replay ability is insane.
      After reading the good reviews, I felt disappointed. I know Hades 1 is a high standard to follow, but this wasn't even good, it was just okay at best.

    The better you get at Hades 2, the more you learn you can play it REALLY fast just like Hades 1, but now you have a bunch of charge moves and not just one.
    The main thing I'd say could use a bit of adjustment is base damage. Unless you're stacking endless damage bonuses, you won't feel like you'r doing a lot of damage. But when you do build tons of damage, it feels even higher than Hades 1.

In this, strong sister will fight and beat final boss to save her father and brother who somehow got caught. Doesn't draw any emotion from me. I felt the weight of Zagreus failing, how he comes out of blood river all tired, goes through his working father who throws him few remarks and gets back to work while Orpheus sings all depressed in the background. Not to mention the brutal death animation, that is not present in this one for some reason. The hub itself felt vibrant and full of story.

    1:50:00 Uses one of the best weapons in the game for less than 5 seconds and says it sucks. I hope he doesnt think the fire ball throwers are good because then he's truly gone insane.

    How you manage to suck at every game you play despite it being your job and forced to do it daily is remarkable
