Just finished Hades at the 28th time of asking, feeling good. Shield owns. Spear good too. Not a big fan of the bow or gun. I spent literally the last 500 coins I earned in the temple of Styx on a Hermes boon which turned out to be Legendary and gave my cast automatic recall, which given I'd buffed the hell out of it was absolutely perfect. I went in to Hades with 3 lives and killed him with 10hp remaining. Phew

Now do it again

On top of getting most of the benefits of the mirror and knowing the boss stages and movements inside out it was mainly about figuring out my favourite gods' boons and rolling with those

Artemis and her crits are hands down the best boons, stacking status curses to get the damage bonus from the mirror, and then making cast builds if you get the right Demeter/Zeus boons is my way to go. I mostly hate Aphrodite and Poseidon for weak and knockback, unless you can get the buff to weak that also makes foes susceptible to more damage. Athena's dash deflect is also great as a crutch when you're less confident in your timing for dashing through attacks.

On my best runs I would know things were going well when in the small temple of styx rooms I could press like 6 buttons and immediately win. Obviously I had less optimal builds where there was a lot of kiting, plinking and hiding-behind-rocks in the final battle.

You've developed essentially the opposite play strategy from what I can discern is the current meta, which is fun as hell.

I think the average person has pretty basic critical writing skills and heavily relies on the use of shorthand and slang. It's easier to just say something is "good/bad" and let the reader fill in what exactly that means instead of spending the time (and having the skill) to fully describe complex thoughts and feelings.

This isn't a knock on anyone specific, just something I've noticed about media criticism at large across various places.

I don't care about inverted/uninverted but if a game offers the choice in the options it should legally be required to have a level where the character gets drunk or hijacks a strange plane or something where the game switches the controls just for that level to gently caress with you

No crank, but the buttons are all six inches high and spring loaded to require several footpounds of pressure. This extra energy is recaptured directly to the Nintendo Battery 2

My wife always brings up “memes” but then forgets I don’t have social media (beyond Bluesky which is still kinda fledgling) so she will send me something I don’t get. I also got the feeling I missed something about grapes in the last year or so.

They did surgery on a (polygonal) grape

IMO the Peach game shouldn't even start to get fun until 15 hours in, at a minimum.

You should be forced to acquire blueprints for each outfit and then grind for resources to craft the outfits. Also the outfits should have stamina bars.

Don't forget wear from weapon use, and premium currency for cosmetics

My kid have up on peach game because of the garbage cake decorating, and not in about to. So you gotta do every cake on the same go through, and on a time crunch, and not they like your frosting so if you rub out you automatically fail? tHIS is the game they needs a pity skip but f no helpor tricks to cheat? It physically takes all the frosting to do the first two cakes so there's nothing left for the third. And literally no way to progress?!

Actually if be done just add long AF there's enough sparkles in the other levels to still beat the game and we'll just move on past this door
