Supergiant games is back after their record breaking release in 2020 with their first ever sequel- Hades 2. Considering how polished and beloved the original Hades was, it’s hard to think of ways the sequel could be better. Here’s everything my little pea brain could come up with though

Heyyy🌝
I'm surprised there is even a sequel being made, SuperGiant is one of those devs that does something different each time they make a game, the reception must have been insane if they opt for a sequel.
I definitely need to play more of Hades, I beat it once but everyone says that the real game only starts once you’ve beat it once. Also the shield was the best weapon
I loved Hades 1. If I have one personal gripe with that game, it was about certain events and dialogue. To explain:
I was trying to get Thanatos, Meg and Dusa to all appear in the house simultaneously. But Thanatos doesn't always appear in the house even after he shows up in a run. Or maybe he's talking to Nyx or Hypnos and thus isn't available to speak. Or maybe Meg didn't show up at all in that run and it was one of her sisters instead. Or maybe Dusa immediately flies away and you can't talk with her. It took forever to get this event to happen.
There were other annoying instances. Such as how I was waiting for Dionysus to finish his dialogue so that I could obtain his chibi. But instead of finishing his dialogue, he would sometimes say random things I'd already heard before, which didn't advance his dialogue and thus delayed the obtaining of his chibi.
I don't know how to fix these issues and this is obviously a nitpick. But it was annoying when grinding up to obtain every chibi.
Sorry again for the wonky audio at times, not sure what exactly cause it. Also join the Discord lol- https://discord.gg/Gcx93UPZh7
There is actually going to be a witch familiar mechanic! Hopefully they will be a bit more permanent/interactive than a plain "call" button.
Also part of the game seems to take place in the outside world. Some speculated that as a moon/night related goddess, Melinoe can roam the land freely at night. Maybe there will be a permanent timer as extreme as it sounds? Or her powers change with the phases of the moon as time passes during a run?
Also, since Persephone is back, it'd be a fun detail if they changed Demeter to now be a more cheerful summer goddess rather her usual cold wintry self. She could offer new boons to reflect that change while slow related boons could be granted by someone else…
We NEED dialogue trees with each character coz it be cool to see that instead of a one time time before you move on to your next run because they will go all the way with the voice acting and more importantly an ENDLESS mode coz why not?
So much that can happen is insane!
Not the riddler lol
Ok – Kronuss and Chronos are two different people. Kronuss is the king of the Titans, Chronos is the god of time and doesn't seem to have been considered very major afaik.
But I'm modern fiction these two characters are frequently conflated. And as much as it bugs my autistic brain, I think combining could make for some very cool gameplay mechanics
One of the main things I’d like to see refined even more from an excellent foundation is the dialogue + VA performances!
