Hades is my favorite dating sim, rogue like, family drama, fishing game
Wait dating I CAN DATE THE DEVIL
How do you fish?
Wait you can fish ?
@@RealTwig wait I can date?? Any chance I can date mama Nyx?
Chaos best waifu.
"oh i died now my visual novel progresses!" is something so strange about hades but so good
well the visual novel also progresses when you beat the final boss.. like 10 times
@@SwagHyde no, for the 10th time the final boss lets you pass (that's the only run I finished with the damn bow). I went into the boss fight thinking, well I got pretty far, but I'm not gonna get the boss on one death defiance and half health with the damn bow.
And then I could just... go... and it counted as a successful run 😆
@@tf7602 lmfao yae iam the same with the spear cant use it for shit
@@tf7602 Coronacht is the ONLY weapon I use :,)
yeah I had the bow but I was prepared for a full fight with 2 or 3 death defiances and some good boons. Then he just let me by. Kind of disappointing as that was one of the last weapons I needed to win with to get the prophecy and so just being able to pass made it anticlimactic
Hades is the only roguelike that makes me go "Hell yh, I died I can talk to me friends"
"Finally I'm over that run, please, Thanatos, be around, I want to talk to you SO BAD" - you, probably.
@@bbittercoffee its been 35 times and i still havent gotten thanatos whERE IS HE I LIKE DEFEATED HADES AT LEAST TWICE NOW
"Hell yeah, time to pet the dog." -me, probably
"Achilles, on my way"
Dusa
My favourite soundbite from Zag is when you've run into Thanatos enough times (Don't know if it's after you've reached max bond with him or not) When the bell tolls for Death Approaches in one run Zag went "Guh-Dong" MAKING FUN OF THE FUCKING BELL TOLL, WHICH MEANS THAT EVERY CHARATER HEARS THAT BELL TOLL AND THANATOS IS JUST A DRAMATIC BITCH I love it so much
YES I missed the first line of dialogue from that chat because I was laughing so hard at the bell mockery
ZAG IS SO FUNNY I SWEAR
it appears whenever it wants, i had it on like my 2nd meeting with thanatos in an actual run
*You believe in Bouldy, and Bouldy believes in you.*
"Why did nobody in school told me that achilles and patrocolus were super gay?"
Because Sapho from Lesbos and all the girls she lived with and wrote love poems to were just roommates!
oh my god they were roommates
Yes, good old Sappho, with her totally real husband Dick from Man Island
I am pretty sure Sappho wrote romantic poems about both men and women, so she was probably bi.
Pretty much all of the greeks were bi
@@silasmograth9322 Yeah, but I believe she is seen as an important lesbian figure because she was one of the first famous figures that liked women.
The reason I fell in love with Hades was that the dying and restarting was not only canonical but thematic. The point of rogue-likes is that through extraordinary effort, absolute stubbornness, and endless skill, you can achieve even the most ludicrous of difficult things.
In Hades, your enemy isn't dragons made of bullets or dangerous cave creatures or whatever. You fight causality itself. You fight the concept of Death and Destiny. I haven't played enough to know if you win, but either way is a story worth telling
cant wait to hear your thoughts when you reached the epilogue and beyond
It's capped off when you look at some of the genuine mythology there. The actual mythological Zagreus is somewhat undefined, mixed up and conflated with Dionysus in some myths, but there are some fragments.
It makes sense that Zagreus refuses to stay down, dying repeatedly and shrugging it off, because aside from Achilles' musing on Zagreus being the god of blood and life, he's referred to as the god of Rebirth.
And what better protagonist for a roguelike?
You also fight causality in Enter the Gungeon.
I have a feeling you haven't played gungeon
Nerd
"not you"
*shows Theseus*
I fkin choked
So relatable tho. F*ck theseus
Theseus can go fuck himself, and probably does
SAAAME
I nearly died
i feel the good chemicals when i kill them in under thirty seconds
I cant get past those 2 guys even if am getting godly runs
Charron: *pulls an oar out*
Everyone fighting him first time: *High-pitched screaming*
legit I saw the prompt to borrow from him and went "this is probably gonna get me bitch slapped with an oar" AND IT DID
@@micahmayer9487 LAMAOAKAOWOW I LOVE CHARON
@@micahmayer9487 for real, Charon made me lose all three of my death defiances, Patroclus popping up later in the run was the only reason why I still escaped
after you beat hades a few times, you start to get a bit cocky. and that's when charon steps in and reminds you that there's always a challenge to be had
Actually beat him on the first try. Him and the hydra were the only ones that didn't stone wall me for a bit.
The most attention to detail I have seen in Hades, was when I got the Artemis Aphro duo boon and after a conversation where Aphro called her a virgin, it changed Artemis' description for the rest of the run
Artemis the virgin? Bro, that's fucked up lmao
This game is so good wtf
Aphrodite be trashing on Artemis for being a maiden for god knows how long already
@@bbittercoffee She actually is one tho, and it was her own choice anyways. Nothing to hate here. That's pretty impressive to never have secks for 10,000+ years. Very impressive.
@@krimsonkatt It's implied that she doesn't have any interest in sex and would rather just go hunting with other asexuals.

hades is a fishing game with a free combat dlc and story and dating sim
that's my review thanks
DLC=DownLoadable Content, so no.
response: so you just get all free DLC's by downloading the game?
@@topazprism77 What sorcery did you use to not need to download the game in order to play it?
@@topazprism77 Did you not download the game? lol
Ah yes one of the best fishing game so far! 😅
Not gonna lie, everytime the fishing rod bobs, my fight or flight instincts become activated.
Hardest mini game ever.
My technique: Look a little bit above the bobber and let your eyes unfocus a bit. That way it's hard to see the bobber moving but the flash is still very noticeable.
By the way, when you're playing with a controller the vibration helps a LOT, so you don't really need to look at it because the vibration is different when it's a bait or an actual fish.
Oddly enough, Animal crossing taught me how to fish
You guys must have itchy trigger fingers cause I never failed once it other then the first time figuring out when to real in.
@@benji-menji oh yeah no it’s 100% twitchy fingers, I’ve got a like 20% catch rate and it kills me every time I miss
Hades is like that underdog who comes into the ring and instead of blowing everyone's expectations, he completely annihilates the competition.
no u
So... hades is a bit like little mac?
Justin is Hades confirmed
aaaah
Y justin
why
The "not you" on theseus just sums him up perfectly.
I purposely spam the hell out of the Thesseus, so that I can have a friendly sparring match with Asterius...
FR
@@karu6111there is a miniboss where you just fight asterius by himself
and it's the most profitable miniboss of them all, asterius will have 80% health if you fight him by himself first
I kinda like his little story where he starts to doubt himself before Asterius builds him back up again. It's pretty wholesome.
Then again, fuck Theseus. All my homies hate Theseus.
I'd love if the Hades DLC would actually see Zag get trapped by Olympus and work his way down to get back down to the Underworld. Where he get's boons from Underworld demons.
Would be a really cool Reverse mode.
Maybe not demons, but the Cthonic Gods
This!
This! Also, I call dibs on Charon's oar, hits like a truck.
This would be so cool. I’ve always thought about what kind of boons Hades, Nyx, Persephone or even Charon could have

YOU CAN TALK TO SISYPHUS'S BOULDER WHAT
Bouldy is, hands down, the absolute best character in the game. Dialogue, looks, humor... Bouldy's got it all.
@@MentalVideographer His dialogue is truly incredible. I can quote him word for word. I truly can't believe it was written by human beings.
Bouldy is such a chad honestly. You start out expecting nothing from his with his limited dialogue. but then you realize that it’s not bouldy who wasn’t speaking enough, but that you weren’t listening closely enough. Once you personally start to read deeper into that which is bouldy, there is no denying how truly magnificent their character is
YOU CAN FIGHT CHARON WHAT
@@serspammy Yeah sometimes a coin bag appears in the shot and if you "Borrow" it, he fights you, if you win you get to keep the gold and you get a 20% discount shop card, but his really strong, maybe even harder than the last boss.
I feel like I should probably play Hades...
Vailskibum94 yeah you probably should idk though
You definitely should.
Between this and zero punctuation’s review, I feel like I should play Hades :I even Jim Sterling praises it to high hell
@@Evanz111 After you play it get other people to play it so Super Giant can be the next big Indi studio.
hmmmmm, idk its just one of the best games of the year and maybe the best rouge lite ever
as someone who's entirely new to roguelike games, hades had me playing for 14 hours straight and now my right hand hurts in two different places
i have no regrets this game fuckin slaps
as someone who is entirely knew to games, period it had me sitting in my bed playing until my neck hurt
Just picked it up on Xbox, and boy am I upset I didn't pick this up months ago. I've been playing since it launched on game pass, and it's absolutely amazing.
I also only stop playing when my hands start hurting😂
honestly, speaking as someone who really disliked roguelikes due to the often brutal difficulty and demanded replayability, hades finally warmed me up to the genre and made me realize that i don't actually dislike roguelikes as a whole, i just hadn't found the right one for me!
it's the only roguelike i've played that doesn't make me want to drop it as soon as i die to the final boss and have to start over. it's really opened my eyes to how fun these types of games can be.
Hades has been the only game where a week straight "one more run" ends in "oh shit it's 4am"
Hades making everyone question their sexuality and that's alright.
Any good content does that
Like the gods intend 😌👌
i mean, it's greek
Yeah we Greek keep scrolling
It's not gay if it's in Greece, it's for *educational purposes*
The art on the thumbnail- the artist- I need their name-
it's official portrait art from the game which means it was probably done by Jen Zee!
@@yakkocmn are you sure? I looked through her Twitter and the studio's official website and Twitter. Plus it doesn't really fit her style, I'd know since I've been following her art career ever since Bastion. Are you sure it's not fanart? ○|￣|_
@@godfatheralexander it's a sprite from later into the game, so its probably why its not in any of their promo material or social medias :D
@@godfatheralexander bro it’s from the game lmao. However you can only see it once you escape, in Greece.
@@bornana269 i could swear i saw it before i finished my first run but
The "he he, I wanna do it again :D" was what really got me about this game. I've never felt that way about video game defeat before and it's so goddamn refreshing.
"I wish somebody in school taught me that Achilles and Patroclus were gay as hell"
*laughs in Classics majour*
Asterius is the only viable love interest in this game
Red shade if only!
he is the best i wanna kiss him respectfully and honestly he deserves the world and not the worst boi theseus
@@sethamederat5841 I know we don't like theseus but we gotta appreciate the fact that he's very respectful and shit with big boi Asterius, so while I do wish we could romance him atleast his manlet bitchy king of a boyfriend treats him well, anf he seems happy too, so you know.
I do want to give him a big smooch though...maybe if we go to Elysium as shades we could try and then make a run for it?
It is even better when you discover that, in my country, "Bouldy" is translated to "Pedro", which is a VERY common name, and it's so funny (like, "boulder" is translated to "pedra" here)

just a reminder hades is like 25 dollars on steam.
for the price of a single triple A game you could gift your friends hades 3 times.
😳
he be spittin facts
@@yakkocmn still too exspensive
@@AjarTadpole7202 its not even $20 in my region. If you come from second world country with low minimum income, most likely the game will be cheaper.
@Descartes' Apparition Idk the technicalities, but the reason why I buy the game on Steam is because they have this features, while Epic don't have this yet.
On Epic, the game is 60% pricier because of that.
Maybe its just a feature that Steam offers to developers. I also got Halo collection for basically $13 full price all 5 games at launch because of that lmao.
Its just good business, its easier to sell the products to more people, if the majority can afford it.
Edit: I kinda get why they sell Halo (and practically all fighting games) so cheap here, its because Halo is practically unknown in South East Asia. So they need to make it cheap, so people can fill Asia server with player.
But Hades is single player game, and they do that anyway which is awesome!
@Descartes' Apparition It's a Steam/GOG thing
I love how much they nailed every single character! My favorite examples being, Artemis who’s just fed up with all the other Olympian’s crap, Diyonisus who’s just stoned out of his mind, Hermes who talks like “PUNCTUATIONDOESNOTEXISTAINTNOONEGOTTIMEFORTHAT,” and Hypnos, who’s constantly sleep deprived.
Edit: I also was blessed with the ability to say, “Theseus… Theseus… where the F**K did you get a gun!?!?”
thank the paper of pain for that
“Above the level of all mortals” except for blueford

Process of getting hades:
- SGG: hi we are making a game
- me: *pulls wallet out*
- SGG: *shows early access trailer with banger music*
- me: *pulls out money*
-SGG: *shows hades glorious stache*

It's not discussed in the vid much, but on top of everything else Hades does a really great job of including LGBT characters. Zagreus is canonically bisexual, the romance options are male and female, there's a non-binary character, an asexual character, Achilles and Patroclus being the best couple. You can romance all the romance options at the same time if you want without any consequence. It's not considered cheating, there's multiple bits of dialogue where those involved communicate clearly that they're ok and happy with a polyamorous relationship. I've literally never seen that before in a game. Ever. It's fantastic.
the best part is that the characters you mentioned arent just made up of "GAY" or "NON-BINARY". i legit had to think a few secs on who was asexual and who was non-binary cause they are so much more than that and THATS the kind of representation i'm LIVING for.
Tbh if you read enough ancient greek myth you'll eventually realize, gods and humans would be down on each other no matter the circumstances. So yea, kudos to them for being accurate to the source material >:D
I was already dating Than and I'd started romancing Meg and Dusa as well, when I had a fantastic conversation with Achilles where Zagreus was like "I love so many people" and Achilles basically replied "I mean, you're a god. Pretty sure only Hades ever had only one lover."
Also, when I was getting close to romancing Than, Achilles basically told me not to keep giving him ambrosia if I wasn't serious about it. As someone who has accidentally romanced characters before (I just want to be NICE), I very much appreciated it.
Fuck yeah, that's awesome. For someone like me who doesn't like roguelikes, I'm pretty tempted to buy this game...
@@EnzoSM23 I really highly recommend you do. If you're just in it for the story you can activate 'god mode' from the get-go, which makes the gameplay a lot easier.
"Hehe" "Iwannadoitagain" Absolutely killed me
As a guy from greece, for some reason it feels so nice playing hades and it hits very different than any other game.
Teach: how are you studying for your Greco Roman arts and humanities paper?
Me: uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
15:39 i'd like to imagine that for this specific scene yakko went out and got a fan specifically so his hair could blow majestically
I had my mom use the leaf blower
Even better
I found hades randomly in the switch store, thought it looked interesting and now it's the only game I play. So like. Thats cool
2:00 Hating Theseus really is a must, isn't it?
"Hey there, poopy breath!" "I AM NOT!!!!!"
It's not a must; it's merely an instinctive reaction
all my homies hate the worst assless boi theseus
Really think it’s underrated how, in the first three zones, you get to hear 2 tracks per zone (maybe 3, if you include the first few rooms of Tartarus which have a fixed track, and barge of death has a fixed track). Each track is split in 2: the “normal” version, and the metal version. The harder and crunchier rock variant is reserved for bosses/minibosses, where it takes the preestablished melody that you’ve been listening to for a while now and then decides “metal time” and the music becomes something out of doom.
random fun fact: the barge of death track is reused for the "Tiny Vermin" boss in the temple of styx
When you finish a room where you might have an option to encounter a Miniboss, you'll get buildup for the Hardrock version of the soundtrack. It reverts to the normal one if you don't visit Miniboss room or turns into metal one if you do
10:35 Yeeeeaaaaah, a LOT of ancient history has been de-gayed by historians. But, despite that, there is unfortunately no historic precedent for Artemis and her hunters prancing about the forest being lesbians together. Shame.
yeah but like...ancient myths have already changed so much over the centuries, what’s a little added gay action to make up for the straight-washing? 👀🏳️🌈
I mean, there’s no historic evidence for it, but Artemis totally could be an asexual lesbian.
@@pearlmcj Because Artemis hates the notion of sex itself as it gets in the way of her hunting. She is supposed to be a virgin, worshiped as a virgin, and remain a virgin.
I like to think of Artemis and her hunters as asexual
Artemis is a patroness of virginity. She and her followers are asexual aromantics.
"...and Skelly!"
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
50+ hours in and this is how I find out that you can talk to the boulder.
Me to lol.
I 100% this game yesterday with something like 100 hours in it and I NEVER NOTICED THE SHADE THAT SUPPORT US IN THE ASTERIUS/THESEUS BOSSFIGHT !? What an incredible game.
i heard it all the time but because i play with small screen size i never saw what that was about
I saw the notification and went like : Ah yes a 20min video about my favorite game that I've been playing for a year and about how perfect and flawless it is, basically knowledge I already have but I like to hear it from yakko
They don’t teach you Achilles and Patroclus were gay for the same reason they don’t teach you Alexander the Great died of grief after his husband did and say he died of “mysterious causes”
I though ol' Alex died of alcohol poisoning. It seems I was mistaken.
@@tdimensional6733 well actually he did die of alcohol poisoning or just regular poisoning. Never heard of him having a husband but he did kill one of his closest friends in a rage.
@@fanuelnduna8191 Bruh, I learned Alexander the Great died from a fever he couldn't recover from because old battle wounds had shot his immune system.
@@monadoboiz9778 I’m pretty sure he like cried for a week in bed and didn’t move or eat because his boyfriend Hyperion died I’m not sure if that’s his name but that’s what I’ve heard
@@mothtarts1198 brodah Hyperion as far as i know is the name of a TITAN, not a person, but you know, maybe a individual did exist with that name? weird tho
1:53 "What if we fill Hades with a bunch of characters from Greek mythology, referencing their history while also developing them into unique, charming, and just overall- *NOT YOU* -wacky and lovable fellas?"
everything that supergiant puts out is pure art. you didn't even mention these were the guys behind bastion and that game was a legend of its time.
i personally liked transistor more than bastion but you can't tell me you don't get zia's wall song stuck in your head on occasion
Don't forget Pyre. While most people don't like it as much as the other two, I think you can already see the base of what makes Hades so great in that game. In particular the characters reacting/changing through you playing and often by fighting against them is very similar to Hades only on a smaller scale.
Every now and then my brain will randomly toss up "I see the spiiiinne of the woooorrrrllld". God Transistor's soundtrack is amazing
Supergiant games are amazing. Each game they make pushes the hoow video games can tell a story
I spend over a hundred hrs on this game and it shocks me how addictive this game actually is.
Even if it's the same run, the progression , balance, build variety of this game is just on such a perfect spot which doesn't overwhelms me/ punish me for not using a guide, nor does it feel repetitive/ boring.
The story element is just icing on top of it, since I can't believe game like this could have such good writing, memorable characters and flawless voice acting you'd care for each of them.
It is kinda sad this game has no dlc and is stuck with 4 stages.
This game could have near infinite replayability if there're more stages.
It is kinda like Dead Cell but with more engaging story and less punishing combat system that cater for all audience.
SGG may yet add stuff to it, you never know. Hell Borderlands 2 got free dlc 6 years after release.
Melancholia or hear me out, CO-OP
God, I wish so much for SGG to add some extra figures, we HAVE to get Hephaestus and Hestia as boon-giving gods!, And imagine if after a certain amount of story progression Nyx and other Cthonic gods start giving boons as well!!!, THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS
@@adrianrandom3448 yeah i would love that Hestia and Hephaestus were characters i was expecting given the mythology fidelity
@@tonysmith9905the closest we got to that is an announced sequel
Man, this really sounds simmilar to kid icarus: uprising in terms of character and theme. I really should play it.
Greek and norse mythology just slaps that hard.
I played it. Is good
Hades is like a cake with rogue-like gameplay being the biscuit, story being the cream, fishing being the little tasty bits inside, and music being the cherry on top. And all of it is presented on a silver plate levitating in mid-air being the visuals.
Hades is a game where, even when I've been through all of the story and think I've seen everything, I get off and I still want to see Hades, and listen to its music, and think about the gods, and AND.... dang, you know what I'm just gonna go play Hades again. Then maybe a few more times after that.
Hades is like, Zagreus: couples councilor
But really it’s so good I love this game and that it let me date death, thank you-
i literally started cheering when you brought up darren korb- hades is my first supergiant game but ive been obsessed with his music forever!!! you did a great job trying to summarize everything amazing about this game
i don't like thanatos as a character, but i can smile every time he shows up in a run because the song goes super hard
Alongside all this stuff you've said, this game also reminded me why I loved Greek mythology so much in middle school. It really reignited that spark with its unique take on the characters and story.
That, and it makes me crave Mediterranean food. I had gyros for lunch like three consecutive times after starting this game.
That "Not you" just ... ugh, I felt that in my soul.
As someone who can't play a fighting game to save their life and gets overwhelmed super easily, Hades has quickly risen to one of my favorite games ever. Even being super frustrated getting really far into a run and dying, going home and talking to all the characters and petting Cerberus makes it worth it.
Epic video. Side note: every time I look at the Thumbnail for this video I always think that Zagreus is pointing those guns at me and I feel a fresh, funky fear flow through my veins. Thanks
This game taught me that with enough guts, determination, and constancy, you can achieve your goals and dreams.
And meet people you never thought of befriending.
Thank you, Supergiant.
I've love every bit of this game to the infinity and I'm so happy you decided to make this video. ^^
After seeing the trailer of Hades back when it was announced I quickly dismissed it as a bad rogue like. Now after watching this video I instantly bought it and am enjoying the heck out of it. Thank you so much.
"One boss...awwww shietttt" LMAOOOO god that got me so bad 😂 this is great, subscribed!!
First video I've seen from you're channel and I loved very insightful, yet very funny, and entertaining you got me sold.
Honestly the way this game helps the players is mindblowing. I first played this game on god-mode and after beating Hades twice I wanted to take it off. I started off Pact of Punishment with just one on each weapon and I choose the most manageable ones slowly and it took me awhile to get used to it. But now Im over a hundred hours in and I'm around 6 to 8 pacts without god mode and it was a slow progression but I had so much fun messing with the game play to make is fun and challenging to me specifically.
Fighting Hades with extreme measures and hearing unseen ones of the first time was jaw dropping
The best thing about Hades is that it's the perfect baby's first rogue lite. Because of the requirements to get any physical progress is so great in every other rouge lite being so high a casual gamer would be in fear of them wile still wanting to play them. Hades being willing to give players rewards for playing makes it so new players can play the game for long enough to like them. I have no idea why any other rouge lite or ever rouge like ever considers doing the thing Hades did, but at least we got a good one now. They might even make this the new standerd for rouge lites.
This game became one of my favourites when I heard Euridacy sing for the first time. One of the 2 songs that made me tear up the first time I heard it
Imagine that your mc its so attractive that could makes male and female falling in loves with you, but dusa just straight rejected you and zeg got friend zoned by dusa, i love her 😂🤣💕
I mean, she's a floating head. IDK how it would even work. But she's cute, and one of my favorite cast members, and I'm really glad she and Zag got to stay friends, at least.
It's not really a friend zone though... it feels like something more than friends but not sexual
The dad joke at 4:50 is what made me instantly subscribe and press the bell. Lmao
Came for the roguelite hack-n-slash, stayed for the dating sim visual novel.
You know what's nice about Hades? It's story stick pretty close to what the gods are like in actual written mythology. So Hades being how he is in game is actually pretty accurate
"As if my personal favorite means anything to anyone other than myself." I see you're new to the internet!
2:04
DUDE. YES. That song always brings tears, in the best ways. Its always playing in my house of hades. This game touched me emotionally in a way no game has since the likes of Zelda games and Dragon Age Origins.
I've loved Supergiant ever since I played Bastion and then Transistor, hearing about Hades made me so excited to play another of their games and every bit of love I see for it makes me happy they're receiving the recognition they deserve :)
This video. This one captures EVERYTING i love about Hades. OP you're powerful af
Guess what, Darren Korb is also very good at playing Hades according to the producers. Among the production team, he has the fastest clear time at 12 mins.
I love how there are two voice lines for getting to hades with no boons
let's gooo
Ooh les go gamur
I’d just like to say that Yakko has single-handedly made me obsessed with this game and I could never be more grateful
I've been playing Hades since it started in Early Access and I have to say, it's great. It got me into roguelikes, which are now favorite genre of games.
Love your enthusiasm. Watched a lot of videos on Hades while leaning on it, and this is the one that pushed me over to getting it. Thank you🙏🏾🙌🏾🧡
I wouldn’t mind at all if your videos continued to take longer to make, if that means they’ll all be as quality as this one.
No, you could not shorten up this review any and do it justice. This is as long as it needs to be, and I would have gladly listened to/ watched an even longer one. Amazing 👏

As someone that has never played a rogue-like, this was an amazing introduction to the genre. I literally put over 100 hours into it in like a month while working a full time job and am no where NEAR stopping, I’m obsessed with this game and I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of it
I clicked on just to have my opinion reconfirmed that hades is amazing.
i heard that yo-kai watch music 👀
great review! loved how much thought and effort was put into it. now if only thanatos would show up in my damn house.
The part where he said that Theseus was not loveable was so undeniably relateable.
Enter The Gungeon is the badass uncle who cares for you but tries not to show it of the rogue-like genre. Hades is the badass uncle of that badass uncle.
Yes
Yes
Hades' script has about 300.000 words...which makes it longer than the game of thrones book.
I'll be honest I'm only here to find secrets that I haven't uncovered like the fan in the stands! Did you notice that they named the builds as well? The specific combination of different boons will name your build at the end of the run.
Seeing someone even more passionate about roguelikes than I am is such a treat, honestly, you've earned the sub my friend
Played Bastion, played Transistor, played Pyre, played HADES
Love them all.
Thanks to this video I bought Hades. And I absolutely loved it. Thank you.
bought this game cause I was nostalgic for my Greek mythology phase with Percy Jackson, I was *very* surprised to see that I actually enjoyed the gameplay as someone who didn't seem to get into the rouge likes I've tried (sorry into the gungeon 😔). the characters already had a small soft soft as a knew most of the Olympic God's but it was super fun to see more, I've done some causal research just from curiosity and boy do I wish I could convert to Greek like it's a religion.
haven't beaten hades as of this comment but I feel closer every time and that's definitely the charm of this game, as explained so wonderfully in this video. I've got to go talk to bouldy now cause I've played for hours and never knew he fricking talked lmao, loved the video too!!
Oh hey, that's Sisyphus. 2:02
You know, I heard that that guy... rocks.
You're probably not going to pay attention to this comment but I just want to say that I've been loving the content you've been making for the past year, thank you for making such amazing videos and I'm looking forward to the next one.
Don't understand the first part of your post. What's the point of it?
You transmitted the excitement directly to me, I was grinning the whole video. I knew the game was cool and all, but not to this extent, now I NEED IT.
The important factor here when it comes to dying in hades is that Every death isn't because of some horeshit gimmick, abused build or lack of foresight on the dev's part like in other games, it's usually due to a fuck up on your own part
The game's great, amazing on all fronts
and every time I die, instead of getting pissed off like when losing a game of league, I feel the drive to try again because "Huh, this time they almost died. I think i've got the pattern down, let's try this again"
this was a really good video!! i feel like in just 2 hours of playtime, hades has stolen my heart and its really nice seeing a video that really encapsulates my feelings for the game!
Who is here after the announcement of Hades 2?
