The only god I don't use super often is Hestia because I don't know as much use cases with her boons in general, but for the most part she feels like a snowball goddess where her basic boon are underwhelming, but you can just keep stacking more and more extra effects until anything you have that inflicts scotch just shreds enemies while needing relatively little assistance from the rest of your kit.
The other gods definitely have their use cases. Demeter has one of may favorite boons in the form of Gale Force. It doesn't do much on it's own, but in conjunction with any cast boon which applies a curse it allows you to proc origination on any enemy in your cast. Hestia doesn't really have anything like that.
What is this hades game ? Is it good ?
I think the hestia mechanic of ignite is a cool idea in practice, but the dps is just not good…
Even with all the hestia boons, what ends up doing the damage is jusit your weapons or hammer mods. I would love to see something else with hestia, and her tier 2 boons arent exactly "GOOD". Hephestus is decent but he just f eels like a worse ares. Poseidon feels very similar to the hades 1, as for zeus, his blitz is very meh unless you have a ton of on-hit from a ton of zeus boons. I dont know, procing 120 damage shouldnt be hard, but it doesnt feel rewarding to do so. Just my opinion as of playing the game for very few hours tho. I came back from hades 1 and hades 1 seems much more intuitive in the build-crafting than hades 2 to me.
Tell me that i'm completely bullshitting cuz I'd like for nothing else to happen at this moment.
Duo boons are frequently, "Oh. Neat," rather than feeling as though you would want to build a run around them.
I think last boss will gonna Ares. Because he is the only god we haven't seen in this game, even though he was in the first game.
Aspect of Pan should probably get nerfed lol. It only really needs Poseidon's Special to obliterate bosses, Spiral Knives just puts it from OP to absurdly OP. I also think Hephaestus might need to be looked at, his blast effects and Vent especially are really awkward.
To me, the system/set of boons that needs the most love are Selene's boons/hexes/whatever. I think they're kinda meant to replace the Call boons, but most of them kinda suck to the point that I avoid taking a hex in a lot of runs.
Wonder if the final zone would be like the Chronos one, with the no rewards chambers.
"If you need bird advice, I have something to say about the bird."
Yeah, so do I. (censored) that little (censored) (censored)!!!
My main man .. my hades man .. lob u❤
I wouldn’t be surprised to see an overhaul of the companions and the relation to the resource gathering. They’ve been adjusted several times and they still don’t feel balanced.
i do think the duos feel weirdly unbalanced. like the zeus poseidon duo is hard to activate cos you need slip, and even when you get it going it's the equivalent of like two poms on your zeus effects.
compare that to zeus aphro. insta procking blitz with a dash would honestly be a very good boon as it is, similar to the old merciful end, so why did they then decide to give it three times damage on top of that?
I wonder if Ares is gonna be the final confrontation on the surface or if it’s just gonna be a new Chronos battle.
I’d love if after we save Zag, we could use the nocturnal arms from Hades 1. Or even a mod that lets us use them and the old boons if even possible.
I personally think hestia, apollo, hera, and aphrodite gain boons are all fine and maybe don’t need to be changed. I even sometimes prefer the others over hera with multiple builds. However, the rest of gains are pretty damn bad
I’m curious regarding Ares! I know they are planning something, but still.
Does anyone like hades 2 more than 1?
Genuine question, im trying to get into it, but the aspects dont feel as fun so far and a lot of the boons are just boring.
Im still pretty early though, does it get better?
Is there a reason the timer keeps running when you choose a boon over the shop in the final room before a boss? Yet the timer stops in the shop?
I have a suspicion that the final confrontation will be Ares, based on what Athena says about him wanting the war to continue and what some other characters have mentioned about him
So big things missing is zone 4 and a final boss for the surface, finding and freeing the fates, extreme measures, and hidden aspects.
Hades 2 is some based out of the gigantomachia, so most likely the final boss will be Typhon
Prometheus feel kinda undercooked. I wish they reworded that fight a bit. Love the zone tho. Might be my favorite.
Don't care when the next update is, just want to see good ol haelian playing hades
I've also take a break and now I suck at reaching olympus at high feat LOL
yeah the bird… having an immortal enemy that disrupts and does damage is not nice… It feels unjust and I would prefer being able to damage… I think
I think a good axe hidden aspect for the axe could be Cronos' aspect. It wouldn't make sense lorewise but that'd be cool. Regular attack moveset, charged attack is his swing that he often spams and special could be his throw (when the scythe spins and all) I think that would be cool
To me it feeld like the hexes are supposed to be equivalent to hades' 1 call boons, and personally i felt i got a lot more use out of a call than i do out of a hex. Even if the call i got wasnt the best or ideal i still got some use out of it, whereas with not ideal hexes i simply ignore them. Even equivalent calls/hexes like the dark form one are downgrades that barely last and that the upgrades do not help enough. Nevermind that going for selene means forfeiting any other possible rewards for that room, whereas with call boons you could or could not take them and you still got a boon out of it. Also the fact that the hexes arent rerollable is pretty frustrating.
i feel like hera deserves that former second cast where the cast could essentially kill off enemies since hitch is active.
hestia and hera's duo needs to be changed actually because… theres no real need for it lol.
other than that, i feel the hexes NEEDS to be stronger. the likes of the morph hex is FUN but it really needs a damage amplifyer for it to be feasible.
I wish that Persephone would have been on Olympus when Chronos attacked the House and not gotten kidnapped. I thought she was going to be able to give out boons and get to know Mel through dialogue like we did with all the other Gods in the first game. Seemed like a missed opportunity.
I feel like maybe we have another playable character(s).
Hot springs scene with Night Mommy Nyx, when!?
Best game in a while
