wait people were getting mad about fictional characters getting changed from their "traditional" fictional appearance???? they arent even real people??? its not like they made George Washington a black woman lmao
Fuck yea it works! Looking forward to watching this. I just saw you beat Hecate , glorious disaster is off the chain!
i have gotten 4 gods before in a run, but i had to force it with a keepsake. And then i continued to see the same god (demeter) afterwards as well as the other 3. I wonder if theoretically if you fill the pool in the first area if you could get up to 6 but i havent tried yet
Tips for the build, you want Apollo sprint and special. You want faster casting, there's just enough unblockable attacks in the game having the ability to run wherever and minimizing cast time immensely increases survivability (remember all the sea serpent bombs in Oceanus). Also allows for more spamming if you set up a good mana regen, Demeter freeze cast also keeps things from moving out of the blast zone. And if you have the good regen it's worth grabbing double special solely to deal with chunky enemies that aren't in the blast zone. Also you can dodge as you cast then it attacks
Edit: A good alt route I regularly take is Hestia over Zeus, scorch is a nasty thing and better then Blitz imo and she let's you chuck casts to enemies like it's a Zag cast. Find it way more reliable then Hades skull version. She's got a way better mana boon too
I regularly have been running special axe and it's easily one of the strongest abilities. A good CoD zombie style train sets up everything perfectly into the cast. I've wasted more time waiting for enemies to spawn then in actual combat
I honestly don't get all these ppl crying about woke, the game isnt even that woke? I can get bothered by blatant in your face forced woke stuff, but this is nothing? What are the complaints even, that the main char is a woman?
ฤฑ cant see boons offers what can ฤฑ do
Now I'm gonna do a run just to check what's up with Hermes
The Demeter duo does work, you can test in game by using the casts with special combo then trying to use cast omega normally and I got my one up to 135 cost in chronos fight lol
I feel like first win should come around 15 hours or so. Although most players will get it a little sooner, since some skill carries over from Hades 1.
Absolutely wild build
I've played Hades 2 exclusively on Steamdeck and it runs flawlessly at 90fps so I think it'll run just fine on Switch at 60.
Couple of questions –
Can you check boons currently with the game being paused? I press it now but it doesn't pause.
Can you check somewhere who you have given nectar to? Is it only the people in the journal (press c on pc)?
The same people who cry about whitewashing in movies and games tell people to shut up about race swapping even historic characters of extreme cultural importance, fictional or not. It is just as wrong to make a Greek god Asian as it would be to make an Asian god white. People call it woke because of the obvious DEI nonsense that wasn't in the first game and that only seems to mean less white people even in a game about a super white culture and mythology. It screams the "It's not racist when we do it, so shut up bigot" line that more and more companies are telling their fan bases these days, driving them away. The only reasons I let them keep my money is the gameplay is solid and the first game was amazing. Either cultural appropriation is ok or it isn't, it's super racist to say it's only bad when white people do it or that white people just need to accept and be quiet about their culture being slowly taken away from them. Why is white culture the only one expected to change in favor of representation. I will admit though, if you ignore all that, the game is fun.
wowwwwwwwww
Love how just one boon changes everything wish it doesn't have to be so late in the game ugh lol
Can you do a run with the arcana who give 3 arcana at boss
Not sure if it'll be mentioned later in the video, but using IIII instead of IV is completely valid. It's just a different style and people used it even in antiquity, not just on clocks
Thanks for telling those trolls to fuck off, it means a lot that you'd do that.
Wokw detected – opinion rejected
F off
this game is not 'woke'!! hypnos hasn't woken up the entire time I've been playing! unlike that woke mess that was hades 1, that fucker was woke the whole time thank god he's sleeping now
I'm about 60 runs in so far and my overall experience so far has been amazing. Just found out yesterday about the trend going on about people bashing the game for being 'woke'. It's funny because non of the people complaining actually plays Hades 1 or 2, everyone that does has been very positive for 99% of the time and as far as I've seen nobody that actually plays sees this as an issue.
TIL you use IIII on clock
Something I find cool about Howling Soul.
It basically makes your cast be thrown like Zag's did.
Thank you Mr Dan Haelian Streamer for keeping the game as woke as possible
It helps me from falling asleep at work when I watch these videos lol
This was a LOT of fun to watch live (if only we didn't have to sub-only mode for the rest of chat, fuck them bots lol), an actual cast build too. I need to get the aspects in the Axe unlocked, they're both amazing haha
Oh wait, is this the one where we didn't know if the Zeus/Apollo duo would work but it did work and it was amazing? :O
about the how long it should take to get the first win, it took me approx 30 something hours I think and it was just under 50 runs. I think that was a nice number I've faced off with Chronos a few times and it felt pretty climactic. I'm not a good player tho and I do play it mainly for the story and the bi disaster dating sim
does anyone know which mod haelian uses for the dps meterin hades1? i have ellos mod but they don't have the little icons next to the dmg numbers
Nice run!
30:10
OH I TESTED THIS OUT LAST NIGHT if you use a room reroll on the Fields doors, you reroll one at a time from the bottom up, so if you still had a roll here you could get rid of Hephaestus and keep the pom and stuff on the tree
Very interesting way they changed the reroll mechanic here, kinda glad they don't reroll all 3 ๐
nuts build and the aspect isnt even maxxed out ๐ญ
โBeing censored on the net?! No way!โ Got me cacklin
This reminds me of my recent run with Aspect of Pan. I had epic and pommed up Poseidon special, then I had Spiral Knives (about 20 knives all +40% damage) and Concentrated Flurry, among some other strong bonuses. Sometimes, the knives didn't home in accurately, but when they did, I took out a quarter of Chronos' phase 2 health bar with one special. It's going to be really interesting to see if Supergiant tones down some of these more powerful hammers or aspects as they update the game!
