I can imagine him eventually running out of ideas and circling back to something like, “Tripped? Again? Zagreus didn’t learn from the last time and tripped on that same rock.”
Honestly of you look at Theseus' painting from the Contractor list, he looks like Achilles lol. Long golden hair, broad tan chest and a real hottie! No wonder Ariadne fell for him
I wonder if this is a reference to the fact that Ares is often seen working with Nyxs daughter Eris, also that Ares in myth treats women with the most respect of the male gods.
even better than Hades and Persephone? Those two probably have the healthiest relationship out of any myth, and the game is pretty accurate when it comes to that afaik
Supergiant has a brilliant troupe of people they use for it; Logan Cunningham, Darren Korb and Ashley Barret, for instance, have all featured in every one of their games. Darren was childhood friends with one of the two guys behind Supergiant and he brought Ashley in since she was a good friend and colleague of his already, so honestly there’s this almost palpable feeling that these people know and deeply appreciate each other that comes across through pretty every aspect of the work, which really influences how natural and on-point the voice work is. They’re just a group of tight-knit friends talking to each other while playing characters.
All things considered its a bit surprising that Ares isn't a Cthonian god, in the game or in actual Myth. Though I suppose in the game he's flirting with the idea of heading that way
Ares has always had a very tenuous relationship with the rest of the Olympian gods as opposed to Athena. A lot of it has to do with some real historical political drama between Athens and Sparta which, long story short, made Athena the venerated war goddess, and Ares the war god you pray to, but never venerate. Also they very quietly swept under the rug that Aphrodite was a brutal war goddess as well, but whatever.
@@MW-qt9ts It's because she came to Ancient Greece as Astarte, which came from Ishtar, babylonian\sumerian goddess of war, sex and a bunch of other things, very important on that pantheon.

"It's all right, Theseus. We have a splendid painting of you back at the House, for those moments when I invariably forget you exist." Zag got tired of destroying Theseus in combat so he chose words instead 💀
Zagreus: bouldy would u supposed why Theseus ego is so big and utterly annoying? Bouldy: ... 🙃 Zagreus: yea i agree with that Zagreus: and do u think nyx and ares would ever be a thing Bouldy: ... 🙃 Zagreus: yea that will never happen 😒... but if it did what would nyx children think? 🤔 Bouldy: ...😨 Zagreus: I agree it would be a blood bath 😤
"He's murderous... polite though" ah yes, politeness, that thing that magically cancels everything bad. Just like the not any less popular phrase "it's just a joke"...
True irl, but I wouldn't get hung up on that in this game. After all, you get murdered by one of your love interests or are murdered pretty much every time you pass them in-game for example, which 'romanticizes abuse patterns'. From the character's perspective in the game what Ares does isn't even bad, he's just representing his nature and has no influence on any of the gods directly. From their perspective, he's just doing a tasteless job in an unnecessarily enthusiastic manner while still respecting other god characters. Do you honestly have fun with any roleplaying game at all if you approach them like this? Honest question, I'd like to understand.
hmm, not really though, clearly Ares wants to get her attention and asks Zag many times... but it seems like Nyx kinda just dismissed the matter as well as she doesn't give Zag any reply for Ares
@@raviolibirb8009 uh, 3 year old comment dude. Also ya, iirc they did but Athena was there as well and it was nothing in the end. people need to get over this stupid ares and nyx shit, nothing happened and the game literally tells us by the end that nothing happened and it was at most a one-sided thing by Ares that even he ended up saying it was about wanting to learn more about Nyx, her race, powers and such.

I love how the Narrator is slowly running out of stupid things.
I can imagine him eventually running out of ideas and circling back to something like, “Tripped? Again? Zagreus didn’t learn from the last time and tripped on that same rock.”
He actually has a particular message for when he runs out of shit to kill you.
Narrator: can you move it long i'm running out of timecards.
I love how Bouldy is a canonical being. This game looked so angsty, it's the memeiest media I've seen in months XD.
Memes are just the qucik and comical side of angst, although you also could make a case for it being the other way around.
Zagreus: "Magaera, you ever been in love with somebody?"
Magaera: "...Hm, yes."
Zagreus: "Who?"
Magaera: "...B-baka."
excuse me but who’s Baka?

Seeing the boulder getting a heart was hilarious for me 😂

yes
who?
shut up *smirks at zag*
heh
best dialogue ever.

2:56 Zag x Meg shippers: [happiness noise]
Mommy nix just likes to know she is... appreciated... and by a gentlemen no less.
Ares is a man of culture, he knows a goth mommy gf when he sees it
I wonder if this is a reference to the fact that Ares is often seen working with Nyxs daughter Eris, also that Ares in myth treats women with the most respect of the male gods.
Which is a very low bar to clear but y’know
even better than Hades and Persephone? Those two probably have the healthiest relationship out of any myth, and the game is pretty accurate when it comes to that afaik
@@ovencake523 I was thinking outside of them mostly because when writing I was thinking about Zeus,Poseidon,And the rest that are actually on Olympus,
What would you expect out of a mommy's boy that cries to her when he loses? Athena was always better.
@@Gr3nadgr3gorySay that to Roma, the one who anihillate the greeks in past with THE GOD OF WAR, lol.
Why is the voice acting so good in this game
funny thing is that alot of them aren't even professional voice actors/actresses.
Supergiant has a brilliant troupe of people they use for it; Logan Cunningham, Darren Korb and Ashley Barret, for instance, have all featured in every one of their games.

I don't blame Ares, Night Mommy is best girl😍
Babies can cartwheel out of them hips.
Personally, I think she's a close second to Dusa

I like how Zagreus isn't even sure why he bought a Theseus painting of all things.
Zagreus: bouldy would u supposed why Theseus ego is so big and utterly annoying?

Zagreus: and do u think nyx and ares would ever be a thing

Bouldy: ...😨

I just think of Bouldy as speaking in emoticons now
You can’t just have a weird connection between Ares and Nyx and have it be a one off thing. I NEED TO KNOW HOW THIS DEVELOPS.
Ares just has a thing for Big Mommy Milkers.
Ares always has a taste for such powerful women 😂
I think in actual mythology nyx and ares have a kid?? So they may be referencing that
@@C-7827 y’a know what that would make sense
Wait you can talk to the Boulder?
The bigger question is: Can you romance the boulder?
Bouldy needs friends too! (Also I’m p sure he gives you a buff when you give him nectar)
It's not just a boulder. It's a *Rock!*
Bouldy takes offense to your clear disregard of their personhood. Bouldy is a dear friend and reliable comrade.
@@---dj5mc Zeus would love bouldy then
4:16 mmmh...he should have said " I thought you looked dashing!" like Pain in Hercules!!
All the Nyx simps here make me happy that Nyx is recognized.

Honest question, I'd like to understand.
Face it, we're all Ares on this one.
Ares isn't just a polite gentleman he also has a fine taste in waifus
Agreed... one example of his more polite approach to women is his affair with Aphrodite...
As annoying as Theseus is remember he got Hades to let the mino into Elysium
Nepotism
People’s shades feel more like their children than themselves at a certain point
Yhey are still super annoying
damn zag the god of rizz
Nyx and Ares confirmed????
@Deserve Not Desire Rome ares sure, hellenic ares was more a belligerent himbo
hmm, not really though, clearly Ares wants to get her attention and asks Zag many times... but it seems like Nyx kinda just dismissed the matter as well as she doesn't give Zag any reply for Ares
