► Hades 1.0 Full Release Story Synopsis
Hades is a god-like rogue-like dungeon crawler that combines the best aspects of Supergiant’s critically acclaimed titles, including the fast-paced action of Bastion, the rich atmosphere and depth of Transistor, and the character-driven storytelling of Pyre.
As the immortal Prince of the Underworld, you’ll wield the powers and mythic weapons of Olympus to break free from the clutches of the god of the dead himself, while growing stronger and unraveling more of the story with each unique escape attempt.

Hades is the narrator. Zag knows this too, hence old man
I recommend you use the lucky tooth keepsake once you get to elysium so you get an extra chance to beat theseus
I'm in awe how much story this game actually has – I was expecting a full on roguelike loosely connected by some plot, but there's SO MUCH PLOT.
Oh and you don't need to worry about bringing weapons with the darkness bonus all the time – honestly it's not a big bonus. You get 12 darkness instead of 10, it's not a huge deal so it's fine to play weapons you feel comfortable with while learning the enemy patterns.
You did really well for your first fight against Theseus and Asterius! It's a tough fight because it's hard to learn their moves due to so much going on.
I thought the Cast was crap when I started playing but with a few modified it can become pure wreckage.
33.29 "Go to-" …hell? already here friendo
nice to see you play something like this, next up: DEAD CELLS
You shouldn’t forgo the booms that require you taking damage so easily because of the requirement, you will take damage whether you want it or not, and essentially you’re weaponizing getting hit. For the most part, it is an offensive boost.
AS for '45 second survival' rooms – you get money for killing enemies, and these rooms have 'kill all you can' buffet for 45 seconds. If you have really good boons/darkness perks/weapon aspect/keepsake combination, you can farm around 150 obols or more in these 45 seconds.
A small tip about duo boons for the future, even if it's not an effect that you feel you need for your current run, you can sell duo boons for a very large amount of coins (iirc 400+). So picking duo boons is almost always worth it regardless.
For what it's worth, because the Hangover calcs can be a little less than self-evident: dropping the damage tick from 0.5 to .35 seconds is a 40% damage increase. Normally Hangover does 8x its damage per stack (1 tick per 0.5s, 4 seconds), so that base 17 would mean 135 per stack – which becomes 190 per stack with that duo boon. You were wise to skip the Duo there because of your infrequent access to Hangover, but don't sleep on it in future runs – 0.5s to 0.35s there is huge!
Just so you are aware if you let your god gauge get completely full (all 4 bars)you get a longer/stronger effect depending on the god.
I don't know if you'll see this but with the Call ability that I noticed you're doing granted Everybody Plays different but we never use the Call of Duty you're only using the first bar it can charge up to four which in turn makes it stronger last longer Exedra exedra it's like charging up a super gauge you can use a bar to make you do more damage for a little bit of time but it depletes it see if you can charge that the four bars and then let loose on a really strong enemy or even a boss sometimes you can turn the tide with it to get a head start
Bet you wish you'd taken that extra dash now 😉
If I were you at this point I'd focus on getting nectars to fill out your keepsake collection.
Some of those prophecy rewards are pretty good, don't overlook them. Sometimes halfway through a run that I decide isn't going so well, I decide to forgoe the notion that I'm going to get anywhere this time and free myself up to get meta-progression items and fated choices. I've discovered some surprisingly good boon combos that I wouldn't have throught worked the way they did this way, and it feels liberating to be able to just choose whatever because you have already "abandoned" the current run.
YO u almost beated Theseus on your first try wtf, u are doing reallyyy well, I'm enjoying these videos so much, keep em going and I hope you are having fun
I voted for the longer 1h vids but if you keep doing that well, you still might want to split a run in two vids lol
Can't guarantee you'll like it but personally using Dusa keepsake quite a bit, and as someone else said you can 'examine' the employee of the month portrait in the lounge each time you come back 🙂
Welonz arrives at the Butterfly Ball room: ptsd flashbacks oh no
That was close.
So Few tips on how to handle elysium.
A book with "Dont Panic" written on it cause you r doing best of all i hv watched on youtube.With mirror upgrades you ll be unstoppable.
Most of the enemies in elysium will hv armor.So you cant interrupt them until you get rid of it.That means while you r attacking them they are getting hits on you freely.Chambers in elysium r big for that reason only.You hv to seperate them.Let them come to you.Shield guys r slow but hit hard and they cant run.Bow guys hide behind obstacles and attack from distance.Only sword and spear guys run around.
Get away if they r grouped and let spear/sword guy find you and beware of spear guys.They hv long range with their spear.They attack three times with spear.You can dodge them with dashing.
Same goes for bow guys.When you see circle on your head it will hover little bit and when it changes colour they ll shoot.They shoot 3 times most of the time.
Shield guys r the worst.They r very beefy.They will ground pound shield and send waves that you can deflect with athena or block with shield but nothing else will work.Dashing away is god in this game.They block your every attack from front.When they ground pound you can get behind them and beat the living shit out of them.AOE attacks they cant block like lightning or poison.
Artemis's cast is best against shield guys and theseus.Because Artemis is best girl.Cast goes through their shields and it crits!!
Just dont let them corner you.Elysium is very big difficulty spike in terms of enemies.But, like i said, thats why chambers r big and there no god damn lava!!
And remember if you die…you move the story forward!!
Few tips from my experience:
1. Give nectar to hypnos, he has the best keepsake to start with or if you need that kiss of styx
2. The shields cone of blocking is basically half the screen, if you hug a wall or corner you are basically invulnerable
3. getting 3 casts makes them much more relible as an attack, swapping the skill for a regenerating gem is even better
4. Abyssal blood (the swap for boilin blood) makes enemies with the cast in them weaker, not as great for damage but makes learning enemy patterns easier
To be fair Meg almost had you two times (in a row? I don't remember)
You know, for someone, who doesn't play this kind of games very often, you are surprisingly good at this
Captain America build is very cool
Hahaha I would expect the personality they gave to Theseus to be the one Achilles would sport, not gonna lie.
That's brand new sentence never said by anyone in the world before 😆 58:11
Welonz: "nah, deflect would be better on the regular attack"
Also Welonz: proceeds to shot down every single projectile with shield throws.
Damn girl. You did way better on Theseus and the Bull than I did on my first try.
Aphrodite's not Zagreus' cousin. She's his cousin-in-law, since she's married to Hephaestus, and cheats on him with Ares.
You seem to do really well in runs but also your runs are literally just 5% BUTTON MASH! 😂
Enjoying the run so far though.
For what it's worth, Battle Rage sucks as a boon. Sure you do 200% damage, but it's for ONE hit after killing an enemy. Over the course of a normal fight, that's not even gonna help you one shot the next enemy. It's also completely, totally, utterly useless in boss fights.
Coin in the mouth is not super weird – while burying their dead, Greeks would put a coin under tongue of a deceased, so they can pay Charon for the ride to the underworld properly, and not e stranded.
14:44 I was screaming at the screen. 😛
22:15 – Oh my gosh, you FINALLY took a Cast upgrade! I understand you're learning, but it hurt so much watching you not give it a chance for the past 5 videos.
20:48 me at 12pm
By the way, the coin in Skelly's mouth is a normal thing. In Ancient Greece these coins (called obols) were put in the mouths of the dead so that they could pay Charon for the journey across the river Styx.
Is no one gonna talk about how Aphrodite is naked? Like seriously, the only semblance of clothes she has is her hair.
