for context, i've beat Chronos thrice, and Typhon once. i'm really enjoying the gameplay, it's forced me to get out of my comfort zone and not button mash my heart out lol, but the story is leaving a lil to be desired.

in Hades 2's defense, the stakes are much higher. Melinoe's upbringing was way more serious and u can see that in how she speaks. yet i feel that she's quite passive in her fight...? i keep hoping she'll question the gods and how they treat one another, as well as the severity of their situation, or even more fiercely double down on her goals, but instead i find her to be... neutral? passive? her voice feels like it stays the same, not just tonally but literally too (not blaming the incredible VA for this, it's more of a writing/direction issue, i feel); i was hoping by now she'd express more doubt or annoyance or stress or anything different to what she's been doing so far. is it just me?

edit: oh and the boons! selene's boons <<<<<< hades 1 god boons. i only really like one of selene's boons, and unlike the rest of 2, where i had to learn to be flexible with how i play, i find them limiting playstyle-wise. i adored the variety 1 offered in that sense, even tho they weren't all that different from some of the regular abilities.

i wonder why they didn't make nyx's boons the final god boons too, she's more powerful than the rest of the house of hades, would make sense if she got away. since she had a better relationship with chaos by the end of 1, it'd make sense if chaos helped her. and nyx helping melinoe so much could play into the resentment her children have for both of them.

Im using the shield Aspect of Zeus but im not sure if this weapon is the most appropriate one :(

Just started using Nergal and dont really find any point that I want to mix in the special. Any advice? When should I use it (other than for Origination)?

i'm night's champion. all relationships maxed out. every prophecy fulfilled, but i haven't gotten the new prophecy that i've read unlocks after a 24-heat dream dive clear...

one more prophecy to fulfill i believe. is there anything i'm missing to get this one to populate?

I wanted to clarify -- what are the prerequisites to trigger this particular quest?? I haven't done anything of note, in fact, I've only been working on three tasks for the duration of my playthrough (orpheus-eurydice, Achilles-patrocles, thanatos), none of which i finished. I've ignored giving nectar to most of the olympians, I've only beaten hades about ten or so times, so I'm not sure what triggered this 😭

I'm looking to buy this game for switch 2, and I wanna know if this game runs on 1080p on handheld boost mode on switch 2. I know the switch 1 resolution is 720p, but I don't see any info with the switch 2 boost mode.

Hello everyone I purchased Hades switch game from AliExpress and it's missing the art book that is supposed to come with it, I think the seller scammed me (also another game came in bad condition) I was wondering if anyone has the Hades Compendium digitally I'd really like to have it. It was one of the main reasons why I purchased the game physically in the first place. I love the art. Would really appreciate it much appreciated.

I wanted to see how far I could get with a pretty stupid challenge.

The rules were simple:

• The moment I take damage, I have to immediately switch to a different roguelike.
• If I die, that game's run is over forever.
• Beat as many games as possible without running out of attempts.

It ended up being way more stressful than I expected because every hit meant adapting to completely different mechanics.

If anyone wants to check it out, here's the video
