I will say that I have been enjoying your playthrough!
Lmaaoo selling the heroic boon 😂 rip
Knowing you don't know who Patroclus is, it's gonna be so fun to see how (and if!) you guys hear his backstory/connections
7:13 normaly gods can give random Boons between Normal, Rare, Heroic
Beside them, there are Heroic Legendary and Duo Boons
Duorequire from player to have minimum 2 specific boons, in most cases, you need 2 diferent goods in your 5 main slots atack/special/cast/dash/aid (some might have higher restrictions like: Ares+Artemis must have Cast from Ares with any other Artemis boon for main 5 slots or Duo for Ares+Zeus needs 1 of 5 from Ares + 1 of 5 from Zeus + any boons with revenge dmg)Legendarythey are rare boons from gods that at the same time require 1or2 conditions to be pulled out (some just need keepsake to be equiped, other need drop-able boon while other like Demeter need 1st 1of5 main followed by 1 of boons that enhance her debuf to just get chance for her Legendary to drop (Demeter L makes everything affected by her Chill die after droping to 10%health including last boss)Heroicthis is easiest, when god randomly drops boon for slot that is already full it will offer said boon with same Pomegranate Lvl but one Rarity Level higher, so if you already got epic you will get hiden rank aka Heroic BoonKeep a lookout for a ding sound after you cleared out a chamber, it means there's a fishing spot.
I wonder, do they play with low volume? Because I always relied on the audio clue for Theseus' attack myself. I wonder if they need to play with low volume to hear each other.
The zoom in killed me lol
I think my favorite part of the zoom-in on “Replenish 1 use” is Casey idly thirsting over Athena while it happens. Hope you’re feeling better Casey!
7:11 replacement is the only way to get heroic besides random upgrades.
Just yesterday I was thinking "why does he keep going to the sell fountain and mouse over his boons up and down real fast? One of these days he's going to sell a really good one by accident." Well, that chicken's come home to roost today.
Perhaps ironically, he would have had more health if he had died and used up his last Death Defiance in the room before Patroclus — but he could never have known, because he had no idea the next room would have Patroclus, who he had only see once before and didn't have a clear memory of what choices he offered.
How to best explain greek mythos…"Unfortunately Zeus got horny."
15:33 – I don't know why, but Alecto is the one fury I have the hardest time dealing with.
Algorithm comment!
"I need to play it slower"
Between Alecto showing up (The Worst TM), the accidental boon sell, and passing up on a DD replenish, that was probably the most cursed/unlucky run yet. But you persevered & it's very fun to watch. Can't wait to see the rest of the run !
One of the funniest and most frustrating things about watching these is seeing Ian get an early opinion on what's good and what isn't, and then angrily stick to it regardless of how close to reality it is. 'AARGH, STOP GIVING ME BOONS I DON'T CARE ABOUT LIKE DEFLECTION OR DEATH DEFIANCE BUFFS, I WANT DOOM!' I'm now very curious about how his opinions will evolve over the course of many runs…
Ian: Hates Hermes boons because he thinks they're boring…
Me: Hates Hermes boons because they are too good and I end up losing them when I have to start over… 😭😭😭
I hope they talk to Achilles again now that they've met Patroclus. I haven't played the game so it might not do anything but based on my mythology knowledge… it could trigger an interesting interaction
Good title. It's interesting how wrong things went and yet this is the second best run so far.
Wow, this episode was a series of unfortunate events. Very entertaining though. Thank you for the video!
Ian: WHAT IS HITTING ME?
Casey: Probably that giant cloud
Lmao
25:20 Nope. The river of flame overflowed and flooded the area. Also, Asphodel is somewhere between Tartarus (Hell equivalent) and Elysium (Heaven equivalent).
I appreciate the self-aware zoom in on the unfortunate complete failure to read lmao
Homestuck reference appreciated!
But now i have to ask, thoughts on Homestuck^2?
You likely already know, but you missed the sound clue about the fishing spot in the second chamber.
The agony as Ian switches away from the free Death Defiance at the last moment.
Nooo they didn't see the red shade in the Arena ;(. Well someday their idol will notice them I am sure.
appreciate the slow zoom in on Athenas boons, thats exactly how I was feeling. You live and you learn 🙂
Did i miss or they still didn’t meet with thanatos :0
Omg the zoom in on the death defiance replenish lol 😆
I wonder how long it'll take Ian to realize the random but predictable patterns to this game especially when it comes to the boons you can get during one run. I think I was at 100+ hrs before I noticed them.
The slow zoom was hilarious 😂
Its a testament to Ian's gamer-god status that so much went horribly wrong but he still got so far
"I don't care much about hermes" BLASPHEMY!
I never cross demeter for the sake of any god…ever @13:22
lol at the accidental sale of a HEROIC BOON! @19:20
3:30 Athena can give you almost objectively the best boon in the game. Divine dash.
wow that Demeter boon that applied 'decay' was pretty good. i don't think i've ever been offered it!
amazing editing haha, well we know he knows now!
It's funny how he loves Ares boons which most agree is trash, and dislikes Athena boons that can make the game super easy.
27:37 MSPARP mentioned! Fellow Homestuck-roleplaying degenerates addicted to text colors!
I bet that Hermes doesn't say "Ew Charon"
i can hear editor ian screaming at himself
asterius and theseus are absolutely a toxic yaoi couple
