  1. The fun irony of Hestia having a placeholder portrait is that we basically know nothing about her- she was so commonplace that stuff about her wasn't written down!

    Basically, if she ended up with a similar portrait in the final build, it would be a fun anthropology joke

  2. I don't believe that they will hard cut you off after 5 wins. At least from what i can infer from the language used such as "please consider your participation in this technical trial to be complete", it seems like they are soft capping you at 5 wins or in other words they are suggesting you to stop after 5 wins cause their aint much left story and likely gameplay wise to explore after that, but I'm sure that you can still play after those 5 wins there just isn't anymore unlocks or cutscenes to get after the 5 wins.

  3. Looking at this gameplay, I guess dashing also counts as a sprint(not sure if you need to hold the dash key down though). Could clearly see the projectiles disappear on dashing.
    Also I guess the reason why you got hit by a projectile(at about 22:09) is: You cancelled the dash/sprint to a omega charge move, which disables the dash/sprint boon effect.

    Just like how the other comment said, wonder what are the special projectiles that can't be destroyed? On Hecate's attacks, it seems it's impossible to destroy most of her "projectiles" except the tiny bubble ones. Wish it could destroy her sheep hex and trigger Hecate's secret annoyed dialogue.

  4. I think Hestia might not be Hestia at all. She is the goddess of the hearth and its comforting flames, the most peaceful among the olympians and Melinoe is surprised that she's even active the first time. Also some of her gifts seem to be double edged, which are kinda odd.

  5. I've noticed something, since you've entered the artemis room, you had the counter stuck at 6 for her and 9 for you.
    It may be a "nice" joke but also always a win agaisnt her in the technical test build?

    EDIT
    Ok, what i thought was artemis thing was the room number, ops

  6. Oh man. You really should have taken that heroic. It knocksback, deals 200 damage, AND spends mana which is actually a benefit because it charges your ultimate and you have good mana regeneration. 😂

  7. Hey Reto, love your videos as always!
    I played a ton of the first hades; probably atleast 100 hours of it, and from what im seeing so far the new mana system needs major tweaking if they want to implement this, it seems like a casting build is absolutely far outclassing anything else when it comes to investment to reward ratio. Why bother seeking daedalus hammers or primary damage upgrades when you can just within 2 upgrades and with mana regen cards be able to spam out 1 shot projectiles back to back? Would love to hear what everyone else thinks!

  8. i got access to the technical after watching ur first video, ive not been this hyped for a game in so long, hope i get early access (somehow) and even more excited to pre order. Havent watch this video yet but I'd definitely recommend trying it out on controller, I find it much more smooth to play with

  9. I'm glad Reto also noticed Hecate being the same VA as the Narrator in BG3, was the first thing I thought when she spoke. But she's a banging VA, so it makes sense she'd be in another banger game.
