We’re considering making this a leaderboard category separate from Fresh File, what do you guys think?
Sorry about the slightly choppy video, encoder was having some issues.

Vorime: gets Merciful End in Asphodel
Me: Cries
Also, believe it or not, I never even noticed that I wasn't getting wells of Charon outside of the transition areas.
Is this game better with a controller?
Just finished my first escape today, your level is so impressive haha great job!
Thanks for this, was wondering what would happen.
Just escaped for the first time too! With the hated most too! (The spear).
Had a run a long time ago that had merciful end but wasn't sure what it did and didn't take it 😭!
Awesome job dude
Finally found it <3
Did anyone else’s soul hurt a bit when he turned down the legendary boon 🙁
I'm kinda sad it doesn't seem there's any special acknowledgement easter egg for clearing on the first run.
aw im sad there isnt dialogue for winning without like literally any of the story progression :/
The game is released now… It woild be great if something will show up!
And yeah… The skip of legendary hurted eyes…
How is every boon spawn athena??
oh wow! To think that you'd be at 25:32 currently woth this run is just mindblowing.
Also appreciate the spoiler warning!
Wooo, that was a butt clencher at the end there! Holy shit, well done!
The problem with this game is that it rely too much on RNG. You can have cursed runs with 90% of rooms with key, gems, gold and get very few buffs. Instead you can get only low quality buffs or no DPS buffs or no HP+, etc.
Holy crap! Haha! It took me 41 runs to escape. 😂
I just got the game and the best I can do on the first run is to make it to Meg before getting demolished. Just one dash is torture 😀
Why is every freaking thing he finds from Athene? I mean this feels like a cheat.
And sorry but this is over 30 minutes of loud button clicking. Unbearable.
“Should I maybe mute the ugly distracting key press sounds on this video before I upload? Nah, that seems to much like work.”
Great run man! Keep it up!
Ngl. I know you might not read this. But the gameplay and attacks reminds me a lot about Transistor. Especially the swords animation. A lot of nostalgic memories for me haha.
Watched this to see if there was any different ending for the "First escape" if you do it during the tutorial run. Disappointed, but it's understandable I guess.
Due to this I learned a few things:
1. Yarn increases chance to get Legendary/Duo boons
2. First run has some artificial difficulty baked in
3. Doom can be useful
4. Dash-attack has less i-frames than neutral attack > dash (Could use more explanation here)
5. The double dash perk from the mirror might be preferable to the single dash + damage/dodge perk? (Seems like it was implied)
Maybe more, but this is what comes to mind
i don't think I've ever seen Athena's legendary, and you get it 2 times in one run? =/
This buttons sound…
Cmon, imposible to watch 🙁
That Hades 36HP, stress level intensifies!
never thought id see ppl complaining about button noises in the comments, the noises are puttin me to sleep its nice
Why do you sound exactly like my math teacher? Lmao
First run > any %
I heard no hammers and I was shocked, those things are the core of most of my builds, I don't think I could do a run without them
Do you know whether there was any issue with the dialogue options or the pact of punishment after you made this clear? I'm curious how much was effected in the House after doing something like this.
controller or keyboard?
i had no idea you could just stand inside the ring of beams on Hades 2
great run, but im mad, it took me like 5 dedicated runs trying to do nothing but get the athena legendary for the list and here it appears twice in a first run
Good stuff. Can’t wait to try some of these tricks in my own runs 😀
Wait, if this is the first escape attempt how Zagreus knows about Persephone?
Man ive been stuck in the elysium final encounter for 15 some encounters damn
It makes me sad seeing how much better than me some people are at this game
