► Hades 1.0 Full Release Story Synopsis
Hades is a god-like rogue-like dungeon crawler that combines the best aspects of Supergiant’s critically acclaimed titles, including the fast-paced action of Bastion, the rich atmosphere and depth of Transistor, and the character-driven storytelling of Pyre.
As the immortal Prince of the Underworld, you’ll wield the powers and mythic weapons of Olympus to break free from the clutches of the god of the dead himself, while growing stronger and unraveling more of the story with each unique escape attempt.

I'm gonna take a few days off from Hades while we have a sort-of conclusion here. Will be back towards the end of the week with (hopefully) nectars for everyone. Hope you are still enjoying Hades as much as I am!
Your shield knockbacks by default, and getting that hammer boon only canceled that – the knockback due to your poseidon boon is still there!
It's kinda fun to watch how others react to Hades unexpectedly letting Zagreus pass, at different levels of preparation. When I got to that point I was only on Skelly's Death Defiance left, so I was more relieved than anything lol
48:45 Thanatos is helping you by taking down enemies in an encounter, whilst also competing with you – it's his way of helping you out (Hades doesn't know) while also showing a bit of sass
1:31:00 there's a nice scene that I suppose you missed and won't show up since you reached the the credits today, in the house of hades you can find thanatos having an audience with hades who, suspects thanatos has been aiding you and yells at thanatos for it. thanatos in turn does admit to it whilst saying that he will not stop and would accept any punishment hades sees fit for him
thats kinda cute ngl
"Yeah, I'll be dumping things on you alright." – Materwelonz, 2020.
I have story thoughts.
But
Im sick so I wont type them out today. Maybe next time.
I want next time, is what I am saying!! I want more story, more nectar, more more, and to see Welonz deepen her relationship with critical chance and witness how nice it is due to law of big numbers! I dare you to go Nemesis sword and Artemis boon (keeping it for most of the run to upgrade Artemis boons) and build around crit chance. Totally not because Artemis is my favorite goddess or anything!!!
Well..if you upgrade your room and lounge..something will happen (and its also depent on another thing too)
The main plot suspense could've gone other ways. Not sure about this atm. Surprisingly, suddenly positive for a game like this. I know the basics of the myth of the seasons, but I wouldn't have been surprised here if they fought about it for awhile first. Curious.
Ignited Ichor is almost always worth it imho. 10 coins, 20 movement… what is it, eight rooms? You understandably skim over it as a temporary boon that costs money… pet peeve, I suppose. The game is still somehow interesting at this point… so, exceptional.
8:30 Could be a good strategy against the bull.
I would suggest to concentrate on furnishing the lounge. It's a requirement for romance with Dusa.
40:20 No it wouldn't be better. that's only +80% damage sometimes. that other one is +100% damage always.
love watching your hades playthroughs! i'm glad you've decided to continue playing, there are so many side quests you can unlock by giving nectar and talking to the characters 😀
1:27:10 With the hades battle being missing this was also your best chance to do the speed heat thing.
I do not know what happens after this, so this is complete speculation/hope. I really thought when Zag made it out of the underworld that 10th time, the Olympians were going to find out and come down to fight (Demeter as a thematic first one). Kind of like how the three fury sisters keep shaping out with one another, I expected the Hades fight to be replaced with a random god every time and that you'd be having to fight past them to see your mother again. The exact motivation for why they would have been helping you with boons… I'm not sure. Perhaps to spite each other or as a form of competition amongst themselves. Perhaps your skill as a "godkiller" would inspire them to want to spar against you? To keep their skills honed? Kind of how Hades is "hiring" you to fight your way out and "test" the security of the underworld. Perhaps merely telling them/explaining how you literally cannot survive on the surface for more than a few minutes would cool their ire for not actually coming to live with them on Olympus. The cottage could even turn into a meeting spot where you could interact with and continue the dialogues with the gods outside of just the boon conversations.
Razor Shoals still works even if you can't actually knock enemies away, as long as you have a Poseidon boon on something.
More, please!
I'm utterly fascinated by how disappointed you were at the lack of a Hades fight haha. When you started this adventure, you made it clear that you were a story-first, gameplay-second person, when it comes to Roguelikes. But here was an awesome moment when they used gameplay (or lack thereof) for an important story moment, and you were upset because it denied you gameplay you were looking forward to haha
I think that speaks a lot both to Hades' excellent gameplay, and your own appreciation of the gameplay aspect of it too 🙂
I too want to see more, this series is great.
Since you're into trying new keepsakes, I suggest wearing the Myrmidon Bracer in the Elysium. It unlocks new dialog! And I really want to see you fighting a specific secret boss, I'm sure it'll be fun!
Evergreen Acorn, on 1 star, saves you from 3 hits in a boss fight. Now consider that Hades dishes out attacks that deal 20 to 40 damage to you.
That's 60 to 120 health saved by that trinket. Might even last you for longer than Skelly's tooth at 3 stars.
I was hesitating on how a roguelike can make an interesting playthrough, but the way this game is built and not just your commentary but also pure investment and fun, here i am, having binged your playthrough in four days.
Congratulations on successfully beating Hades! Enjoy breaking the game in half with that Pom Blossom!
this has been such a great series of videos, and I'm happy you're sticking with it. I love the story, but more than anything I love the roller coaster ride of each run, the ebbs and flows, the suspense, the second-guessing, the panic when you lose a Death Defiance, and the confidence when you have a good build. it's just…satisfying.
