I have got this game like a week ago and have been playing it nonstop help it is so good. There's just so much to it. It's fully voice acted, it has a bunch of voice lines I wasn't expecting, it has so many choices and options, I love the art style and character design. I haven't even beaten a run yet and this is still the best game.

Blargle. Won my first run, then the next one, then choked the third one at the final boss because I thought the waves would stop sooner. Lame.

teddust posted:It's probably not optimal, but I've pretty much ignored cast so far just to minimize the number of things I need to think about. It's worked so far to heat level 9. So something to think about if you are struggling with juggling all your attacks. Two of my three wins have come from stacking Demeter's cast to do damage while I run around hiding from attacks so I'm gonna have to disagree with this. On an unrelated note, I need to remember that the spear's spin attack and the shield's bull rush are not their special and should stop getting boons that boost special with them in mind.

This is my dumbest win so far. Just dropped all three of my casts, stood on the opposite side of the enemy, and spammed attack to win. Cursed Slash is dumb if you get enough health.

I know at some point you talk to Nyx and Zag is like 'hey you said the mirror has additional power can i have that now' and she says 'yeah go ahead' and then it unlocks the green options and tells you how to get them. So either that was added in a patch or this is your fault.

Figured I may as well actually finish all the content in Hades 1 now that 2 is on the horizon. Forgot I didn't even technically finish the main story, lol.

God the aspect of Guan Yu. Went into the final boss with 4 death defiance and barely scraped by with no DDs and 10 health. Glad I am never doing that again.Klyith posted:Also trying to wrap up the epilogue and the last story bits here. It's amazing how you can still find new things after playing a whole lot of repeats. For example, did you know that if you are killing guys fast enough, Zag gets really and talks poo poo? No, but I learned that if you get beat up in a Trial of the Gods against Artemis, she has dialogue discussing how she's giving you her boon out of pity.

Okay I gave up on finishing the epilogue of Hades 1 before starting 2 (because Persephone just will not stand still and give me the dialogue I need...) so I started 2. Can consistently get to area three but god that place sucks. Only got to the boss once and... Cerby no!

I have gotten to the final boss of area 4 and I think they are very rude. In retrospect I should have expected the Titan of Time to not care about my slowdown but that does mean I am happy about it.

Sydin posted:(although I still have no idea how you dodge getting sheeped) You can just dash back and forth into the projectile. It's fast enough that your dash comes back before it can turn around and hit you. It goes away on it's own eventually. Jack Trades posted:Does the EA version have metaprogression implemented already? Is it just as bad as the first game's? It has the metaprogression, yes. I dunno what you mean by 'just as bad' though. In some ways it's quite different from the first games (arcana is significantly different from the mirror) and in other ways it's pretty close (you have to collect two different currencies to unlock it, for example.)

Jack Trades posted:The absolute worst part of the first game was you having to juggle half a dozen currencies, like it was some kind of MMO, and you having to frequently choose to sacrifice your run for the sake of getting more metaprogression that in turn gave you pure power for the next run. It's among the worst implementations I've seen in the genre. Then none of that has changed. If anything it is worse because there is now crafting so there's even more things to collect.

Cactrot posted:The final combo attack not being cancel-able with a dodge has put me in a lot of bad spots when using the axe. I'll be almost done with a combo, get the danger sense and dodge away only for the final attack to play out with full animation lock after I've reached my destination after dodging. It makes the axe a pain to use, since I love dodging. On the other hand, I enjoy being able to reposition the axe mid combo.

I feel like you only really need one MP boon per run and then you're just kind of set. I do keep forgetting sprint exists, though. Too used to Hades 1.

They get better it's amazing. 'Oh, hey, they made a joke about how Scylla made a new song about how she's gonna rip out Melinoe's eyes. That's funny. ...Is this a new background song? Are the lyrics actually about Scylla ripping out Melinoe's eyes? God this game is great already.

Alright, first clear at night 14. Unlocked going to the surface the run afterwards and the two cutscenes bled into each other, lol. His second phase is significantly easier than the first, which was a bit strange, and my finger is tired of clicking the right mouse button for the normal staff special. Healing Hex was definitely the MVP of this run, would have died without it.

Naturally Chronos has heard me bragging about me killing his second phase with no issues the first time I got to it and has decided to murder me every time I get to it from now on. Impolite. To be fair this last time was my fault for taking Nemesis' keepsake instead of the tooth.

Rand Brittain posted:Apolle and Arachne are both kind of leaving me waiting for the moment when they reveal just how messed up they truly are, only with Arachne the actress is layering every single thing she says with this icing of "I have so much bitterness and resentment that I am only just keeping a lid on, you don't even know" whereas Apollo is mostly just blandly nice except in one conversation with Hephaestus so far. As Melinoe is not in Apollo's dating pool, being a relative, she is safe from turning into a plant.
