I was wondering how they were going to do the contest thing from the first game in this one.
Currently at 9:50 but essentially you did a partial sequence break. You were anticipated to have already summons Moros by the time of the surface. When you fisrt died you triggered his recruitment on the surface instead. Usually you die on the surface you trigger a scene with Moros to learn of the special. Essential you were too good at this game for your own good lol.
Yep you can get any resources once you get the tool at any time however using the tool will boost the spawn rates for a particular resource
A bit of a spoiler ig but reto going for the current speed running strat unknowingly is hilarious.
Dude can't stop out gaming the game and the entire hades community 😂
~12:50 Yeah, Moros gave the incantation conversation after my first time to the surface, so I think the fact that you hadn't met him yet did delay you.
Your thalamus plant will give you both fruits (?) necessary for the incantation so you don't need to look for them. Also, you seemed to cheese the surface a bit with those Death defiances, lol
Reto sequence breaking so much to the point he is totally confused at the situation is the most Reto thing ever lol
Double moonshot poseidon blessing is the basis for the speedrunning build and for a damn good reason
Unfortunate that you didnt get double moon not that you needed it.
These vids are becoming my most anticipated daily routine.
I'm not that good, so I actually unlocked the surface before killing Chronos. The pacing felt better that way, I think, because I wanted to deal with Chronos first. Retro is basically suffering from success. 🤣
Around the 15:00 when you’re talking to Skelly, he is right in that you need materials from the surface to make the incantation, specifically moss, only you had already picked up the two required on your trips.
Frinos the devourer, he who devoured time , the stomach of the underworld
I find myself running more on the surface since Ive unlocked it
🎉
Gamergod problems sauhhuashuas This build was insane, actually made me forget about the surface ssahuahuauhsuhas Keep the series, I am loving it 😀
15:20 They're just talking about the Moss here.
30:00 yes Frinos blocks sheep.
I believe the nemesis showed up if you have accumulated enough failed run, and since you died a lot on the surface it count to this trigger. In way kinda forced to experience it in the end
Haven’t seen anyone mentioned, but the bath salt stuff allows time to pass, so you might be able to get the Thalamus without doing another run
Reto being too good at the game is the most hilarious thing, bless your heart for putting up with all of the dialogues breaking from you being such an epic gamer.
30:24 Yes, yes he did. 😊
Isn't he a Good Boy?
hot take tartarus absolutely sucks in this game. its almost unwatchable no matter the creator, same goes for Chronos, he feels very not ready
Is Hermes wielding the spear from the first game
I actually like the need to not actively get to do the new stuff right away. I get the want to always progress. But I think something people should get with Supergiant Games – Story will trump gameplay at times.aking this a greek trial to overcome. A step that needs to be surpassed? It's way cooler a story for effectively minor slowdown. It doesn't hurt pacing because rougelikes are about replaying anyway. It does let you go to the surface. So you're not prevented. Just given a taster before you are set loose. I love it.
For Thanatos! For my brother's boyfriend!
Oh my gosh, Hecete's pollymorph hit Frinos! That's why she complained about it being for you, because it hit the wrong person!
The chaos trinket is pretty sick. When you switch off of it you keep the boon
Engraved Pin turns Hades 2 into Borderlands haha
I enjoyed the first 15 minutes of you not quite knowing what to do because I did all the same things. Ha! Enjoy your videos man. Keep em coming.
What happened to Dora?
I just lost my save file with 30+ hours on the game and I’m not sure I’m gunna be playing again for a while😢
Oh, the story has certainly taken a very unexpected turn. Chronos found The Fates? That's crazy, I'm also curious what the design for them will look like. Death to Chronos, now more than ever!
when you harvest the plant that grows from the seed you just got, it will give you 2 of the corresponding plant meaning you only need the 1 seed he gives you as a guaranteed reward
Loving this series, keep it up
The sheer amount of sequence breaks/errors in sequencing in this run are honestly hilarious.
The explicit and obvious thing is that you're supposed to already know Moros the first time you head to the surface. This one was avoidable if not for unknowingly selling the plants you needed for the incantation, which… honestly, I don't know why you can SELL plants, especially that early on. I kind of think they should lock it out from you until later in the game, since until you're in the endgame you genuinely shouldn't sell any of them.
The second thing is that, because you should already know Moros, the Hecate dialogue triggered too early, which is obviously just a mistake and I'm sure they'll adjust that.
The third thing, however, is my favourite: They assumed, because of how progression would normally work, that the only resource somebody is likely to lack when working on the surface is Moss, from the surface, and maybe the chaos plant, which is why they put dialogue in to advise players to just go to the surface and gather moss quickly. This would be fine (I do think the mechanic is unintuitive and if they choose to keep moss as a resource it DOES need a dialogue with Skelly to explain it), but for the fact that, again related to the Selling Plants thing and just the fact that there haven't been too many runs with plant gathering involved, that nightshade was the missing resource instead of moss, making Skelly tell you that the only way to get the Missing Resource(tm) was Up, instead of down.
Finally, the missing thing for quite a few runs now: You are not supposed to beat Chronos before you unlock the surface, which is why the Oath has been weird and the upgrades have been placed in a strange order. They just do not expect you to beat Chronos in like 7 runs especially through the Eris boons, because the game is hard and most players aren't that good. I didn't even know you could find Eris in Tartarus, genuinely. I don't think I made it to Tartarus early enough for her to show up even once
Early access, folks!
Love to see the frog just chill around casually eating everything from monster bolt to cronos golden spinning ball
thalamus? like the secret cosmic horror boss from the hit videogame death's gambit?
Chronos is so damn NOISY
Man, that time travel line is so funny. Goes to show how Mel can be just as much a shithead as her brother.
Letting you know 🎉
