Okay...I'm going there. Hades just looks completely unappealing. The dev's obsession with isometric is going overboard, and the art looks like a massive circlejerk. Way too slick and comic-booky for its own good.
@alex khudoyarov. Ares + Athena duo boon can be devastating and melt bosses out right. Just look up how to get it. And I hope you been gifting the nectars to the gods as well
@Thomas Robbins: Lol, *that* makes you "nope out"? They give them fiery feet, they transform the peaceful meadows of Asphodel into a fiery landscape, they separate the family so it's not all incest-based, and the thing that's too far for you is that a goddess has any arbitrary skin tone?
@Thomas Robbins: To be fair, considering all the technicolor people in the game, Athena having dark skin is not too out of the left field. It's still a little jarring, but at least she is not blue.
I'd say my only personal complaint after some 70 runs was a lack of environmental variety. I know the amount of work would have been astronomical but I'd have loved to eventually have a choice between the fire rivers and..ionno, a swamp zone instead.
The great news is that the game DOES pull some surprises, and not only do they make sense within the context of the story, but they actually improve the game and make you want to press forward even more on subsequent runs.
The only complaint i can leverage against Hades, is that enemy health shoots up closer to the end, and killing anything becomes a grind. Especially bosses. I'm sure some combination of boons, can help alleviate this issue, but it doesn't show up often enough for me.
You know your game is a gem when Blizzard steals the idea and implements it in Shadowlands. Torghast is basically a WoW adaptation of Hades, and everyone figured that out on the first day lol.
Games like these always amuse me - it's like - this game is REALLY good and really fun and it held my attention for several hours... BUT, meanwhile, there's plenty of other SHIT games that I have just GOT to play so I can bitch about the collapse of the gaming market - so - yeah, I'mma do that now!
This game is a hard drug... almost eighty hours of game in less of a week. I never was so hooked to a game before.
And i still didn't finish it properly (the queen has returned but i still have work to do...)!
