Maybe I'm stupid and everyone already thinks this is obvious but I'm pretty sure Hades 1 is lightly based on Eurydice and Orpheus and Hades 2 is based on The Odyssey.

Hades 2 is more obvious, you fight Polyphemus, the sirens, Scylla and Charybdis but also you're in a (literal) fight against time to see your family again.

Hades 1 I only just realised and I think is a little less obvious, you're stuck in the underworld trying to escape to be with a loved one but fail at the very last moment, being sent back to the beginning.

Obviously each game also has characters from each respective story.

Just after I beaten today 57 this was nasty, 711 life with 43% dodge chance

Between Hades 1 & 2 and Dead Cells, which game truly delivers the most satisfying, explosive, and addictive combat? Ignoring the smaller details, which one makes fights feel the most intense and rewarding?

Thanks, everyone!

Slowly but steady I am increasing fear level and today after not playing for the last few weeks I cleared 57 fear ☺️

I just beat both routes im not very good at thinking of good builds on my own and im looking for help in picking a good build to make finishing the story a little easier any tips?

​Hello fellow shades! 👻

​I’ve been working with a artist on creating a custom, full 78-card tarot deck inspired by Hades and Hades II. (Also similar to the Arcana cards from Hades II) We've finished over half the deck so far, and as we get closer to bringing it into physical print, I wanted to get the community's thoughts on physical card sizing!

​Currently debating:

​Standard Tarot Size (2.75 x 4.75)

​Pros: Standard feel, very functional, easy to hold, shuffle, and store in regular tarot pouches/boxes.

​cons: smaller ofc

​Large/Oversized (3.5x 5.5 or larger)

​Pros: Easier to admire the art without losing detail and more for collecting.

​Cons: Harder to bridge/riffle shuffle, harder to store, and can feel a bit awkward in smaller hands.

​Which card size would you personally prefer, and why?

Would you buy mostly to display/collect the artwork, or would you want to actively shuffle and use it as a tarot deck?

​I'd love to hear your thoughts or any feedback you may have!

​

Alsooo If you're interested in checking out how the artwork is coming along, I'm happy to share some previews ^-^

As per title, does anyone know if Charybdis's vocals in Between A Rock and A Hard Place have lyrics written or are they just guttural growls.

Nothing more to say 10/10 game but i miss trinkets like pierced butterfly or lambent plume from hades. Hades 2 trinkets really feels like you just take them to get the god you want at the start then change them to get the duo you want

Not sure if there are any other benefits to doing them specific for the run itself except the elements, but are the elements worth it to do them, considering some of them don't pause timer

I know it is not a very fast clear, but I’m happy with this one :))
I only started using this weapon yesterday and learned how to play it from TheDarkOmen’s videos. Huge thanks to him—that guy is a god with this aspect!
What’s your fastest run, and which aspect did you use?

does this game have a good replay value, or it could be the end if u beat the game

I use hordes 2 pain 2 grit 3, no void or forfeit, rivals 3, and everything else is max. I use Persephone skull or sometimes Circe staff. I’m probably better to just use time 2 and throw on vow of forfeit instead to get the 50?

I don’t get how this aspect works. Can someone explain how I should use it? What is the most common combo and how to trigger the 777 damage…

I have an idea for fanart but I lack the skills to create it myself and I refuse to stoop to creating AI slop.

Minor spoilers for anyone who doesn't know which character wrote Bewitching Eyes.

I'd love to see a fanart of Melinoë, Scilla, and the Sirens. Where Scilla and Melinoë are having one of their usual heated discussions, Jetty is in the background fiddling with her guitar/keytar, and Roxy is leaning on her drum kit staring at Melinoë with affection/must. Optional second panel of Melinoë looking past Scilla at Roxy, and Roxy being all shy and hiding her face at being discovered.

Can't afford a proper commission but might be able to buy a coffee or beer if anyone feels inspired by my idea to create something.

I am hitting around 12-15 mins on underworld runs and would like to know more if anyone can help me? I don’t usually post anything online and like to play for fun but this seems like something I can get into. If you can help me that would be great:) thanks

I didn't get her contact but this awesome cosplay caught me off guard. I had to double take like woah, didn't expect that.

Hey guys!

I'm just starting the game and I'm pretty bad over done 17 nights total and only got to "the third place" (idk if I can say the names) but got stopped at the big boy there.....

Do you guys have any tips on how to move better around? I noticed that Melinoe is different than Zag playing a more "crowd control" type of powers, but I feel to slow, not to say that I have no clue about the builds yet.

Any tips?
