HADES Let's Play: Episode 1 | Complete First Time Playthrough



This series features full gameplay of the roguelite sensation: Hades. I have heard nothing but good things about this game but have read no reviews or spoilers so I can enter blind and see what Hades is all about. Come on in and see for yourself how awesome this new roguelite game really is! As of 2022, this playlist goes from my first time booting up the game through 3 end boss kills.

Greek Mythology, anyone? 😀

  1. The art direction on this is fantastic. Transistor was georgeous and this game looks just as good. You can definitely see Transistor in this as well in the game mechanics. Glad you pulled the trigger on this one. 🙂

  2. Just found you on Reddit! One of our members wanted to play this for the channel and seeing you play it made me text him and tell him how good this game looks. Really enjoyed the episode and you have earned a sub in our channel. Its easy to see that you are a college professor because you dont seem uncomfortable talking. Hopefully we can support each other in the future! Will be watching from now on.

  3. I know this playthrough started at the beginning of the month, but I just wanted to say: DASH MORE

    Also, you should never just be spamming only the special or only the attack. You’ll need to use each in equal measure

  4. If something says it affects your attack, then it does not affect your special. It felt like a punch in the gut to see you pick the 'attack' Dionysus boon thinking it would affect your special, those are two different slots on your boon list

    Edit: nvm you figured it out 5 seconds later, thank god, maybe I have finally found a Hades blind playthrough that isn't going to make me pull my fucking hair out, you can actually use deduction and read what's on the screen and stuff like that, huge props to you because this puts you in a class alone when it comes to Blind Hades LPs

    Edit2: holy Zeus Almighty, 10 seconds after that you actually just deduced from first principles the boon slot system, it took me like 20 hours of gameplay to figure out I couldn't stack multiple attack Boons, and you figured it out in 5 minutes, you sir are a legend, I am extremely excited to watch the rest of this let's play, 99% of other playthroughs on youtube involve people who think that their special now inflicts hangover and never even notice that it doesn't

  5. 13:00 Funny thing is, in greek myths Dionisyus and Zagreus sort of mix up. Some stories tell that one is the reincarnation of the other, or that they are two sides of the same coin (you know, god of blood/wine, two red liquids), some have them as separated Gods… In others yet Zagreus is more powerful than the Olympians for some reason?? The developers poke fun of this by having the court musician believe when Zagreus says that he's "actually Dionysus in disguise" (a prank/quest requested by the god of wine himself) which actually would "explain" why the all this confusion began. So it actually makes a lot of sense to try to picture the river of blood as "wine". Water of life, right? hahahaha.

  6. Oh, look. A deductive player. *Clicks subscribe*
    I'm unsure if here's a good place to ask this, side this video is "old" by Youtube standarts, but do would you say you focus on some game style or genre? I see you have a lot of "chill" and "story-focused" titles on your channel… Any favorites so far? 🙂
