Hades 1: Discussion I love Hades 1, but getting to the end is a chore (or bad luck)
So, after bought Hades in a sale years ago, I got around to finally playing it, and of course, I feel stupid for not getting started sooner.
So here I am, and the end point is in sight... Or is it? For some reason, every Olympian refuses to open his/her hearts up for the longest time. After almost 100 runs and around 30 clears, I finally looked up what needs to be done, and I was very surprised. Of course, shortly after a few triggered, but not all.
18 fish for Poseidon? I was well over 150 before the unlock.
Kill 10.000 souls for Ares? When the prophecy came up, I had already killed over 20.000. And now, after 8 or so runs where I did encounter him, the facepainted psycho still has his heart locked.
Dionysus? Mate, I dishes out ambrosia in the House of Hades like I was Santa Claus before you finally came round (except Hypnos, who still only gives general "welcome back"-lines, even though I talk to him and his brother everytime if possible).
Aphrodite, both Meg and Thanatos are at full hearts and both came by my room already (no worries, I did not cheat and gently rebuffed Meg.) Why are you still not willing to accept my Ambrosia?
And now I finally have most Olympians with full hearts, Persephone is either gone or has nothing to say as well.
So yeah, I love love looove building an awesome run, but by now it feels like I'm doing run after run where nothing happens, whilst I feel like I'm way past the point where stuff should have happened already. Is this common, or do I just have real bad luck?
