now that the polfaggotry has died down a little, what is /v/'s thoughts on this game? what builds are you trying out?
>>722553756Nobody on here is interested in a game with an ugly bitch in it, fuck off.
>>722553756hades 1 had better story, hades 2 has better gameplay.
>>722553756What's the meta build for a clear save first run clear? Hades 1 had Athena and Ares duo boon.
>>722554239hades 2 is basically impossible to first run because eris will cuck you.
>>722553756hades 1 had better story, hades 1 had better gameplay
>>722554274Eris won't show up if you are bellow 50% health
>>722553756Its basically Hades 1 again with a bit better gameplay and difficulty, but worse story and protag. That said, I am enjoying it
I have 50 hours in and I'm uninstalling soon, not really feel like grinding to get the epilogue, I'll probably watch it on youtube.Sadly I enjoyed the first one a lot more and I'm glad I waited for the whole thing to come out
I can't believe the discussion for this game died so fast
>>722555452more or less my feelings summed up. i enjoyed the post story game of the first one for an extra 30-40 hours but my enjoyment of 2 has come to a crashing halt post ending. i just don't care enough about any of these characters to see their side stories through and the gameplay is good but isn't different enough from the first to really warrant that much more play.
>>722556004>mfw hypnos
Did a Supay run.That shit with a Gold Pom boosted Hera Rush must be INSANE. That Rush Boon already can blow up basically all the early enemies (if there's no enemy health up in play), so I imagine having it with Supay's passive and just bullshit flying everywhere would be nuts.
the problem is that in the original it was the story that motivated you to grind after the first endinghades 2 has overall better gameplay but the characters just aren't interesting enough to keep going
AUTO WIN BUILD:use circe staffuse raven petuse zeus castthere, you won the game
>>722553756didn't like the first onesell me on this one
>>7225537562's less enjoyable than 1.
>>722556542if you didn't like the first one you won't like the sequel
>>722556560it depends on what you didn't like about hades 1. i personally hated the constant dashing and left click spam of hades 1 and hades 2 addressed that very well.
Recommend me Hades-likes.Has anyone played TMNT: Splintered Fate or Knight vs giant?
i'm about to start pact of rivals chronos and typhon, what i am in for?
I just can't believe how terrible the main hub is, it genuinely feels like a placeholder>oooh so you customize it?>most of the cosmetics barely change anything
>>722556995Typhon is lowkey kino but replaying it is a pain in the ass.Chronos does indeed feel like the final boss don't pause your game
I hate the starting staff. I dread run attempts when that one has dark thirst
>>722557276with the circe staff you can spam cast and basically not do anything staff related.
>>722553756>Same VAColor me surprised.
>>722557368frankly I'm going to try BL4 soon, Hades 2 left me wanting more
>>722556995>>722557043Done a few VoR runs with them now.Honestly, I think I prefer Typhon over Chronos. Typhon at least lets me hit him. And the third phase bit is honestly just a test of dodging skills since he doesn't actually do much afterwards.VoR Chronos is just a little bitch that refuses to hold still long enough for me to put my damage out. I find him way more tedious.
>>722553756Am I just getting old or are the Vows of Rivals huge difficulty spikes? I don’t remember them being so hard in the first game.
>>722557941>First region bossess are a huge spike>second region lame>third region cerberus is ass with Prom duo being kinda kino>fourth region bosses feel like a never ending marathon
>>722553756It's an insult to call these types of games roguelikes since they aren't really. They are grinding simulators
>>722553756The inclusion of an alternate path doesnt fix the issue of this game having dogshit varietyAlso grinding for mats/gifts is still insufferable
>>722558570for some fucking reason I never ever got nectar rooms till I started rerolling ashes doors.
>>722557368It took me off guard to see Scylla and Dora voiced by the same person.Imagine doing two characters who are both best girl
>>722557007The pier and hot springs are completly wasted. No usage at outside of gift cutscenes. They could at least have npcs idling there from time to time
Sandbagging maxed out Moon Water is funny.
>>722556623NTAI'm almost sold on it now that you said this.Hades 1 was a 5/10 game saved only my the all around theme and some characters. Even story wasn't good because you had to finish a run successfully like what, 10 times? To get to the ending.Tedium was getting into it much earlier. Around 2nd or 3rd win.(which says a lot with how easy that game was)If there is a chance the tedium was addressed I might actually enjoy the sequel.Still no way in hell sequel is as good as everyone is making it out to be (did I just see it on a top#1 of some random ranking website recently?), but it might be like 6-7/10 kinda good.
>>722553756/vpol/cels are so pathetic
Anyone actually cares about the story?I'd rather get real mythology trivia than some teen tv show drama.t. started hades 1
