legend Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 I guess I don't fully understand the love for Hades. It's decent, but I lost interest a few days after playing. I was expecting to love it in the same way I love(d) Dead Cells, but it just didn't click with me. Maybe because some of the power ups feel *significantly* better than others which made each run feel far more luck dependent than it ought to.

Depends on the build, weapon, weapon upgrades, mirror upgrades, etc. Its probably more skill based than it leads on, with people going for win streaks or dialing up the difficulty options. The artifacts that give clear bonuses can really stack on. I need to get to Dead Cells, playing Hades has really rekindled my love of rogue-likes. I know I’d appreciate it too.

Littleronin Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 I feel that any other year a game like Ghost of Tsushima would rake in the Game of the Year awards. Just sort of show how monstrous of a year it has been for gaming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also is 8 a low ball? Because usually they can eclipse 8 hours in one day. In fact last year's length was trimmed down a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen a couple of people play the game and it seems that you need to be willing to accept the RNG to really get it to click. I saw one of the YVG guys complain about RNG, wanting the perfect boons to have an amazing run and he didn't enjoy it so much. However, it was surprising to see Max really embrace this game. He was able to enjoy the RNG aspect and get it to work for him. And that's basically what the game is, you have to bathe in the chaos (literally and figuratively) and build around a possibly bad starting gift. The game isn't meant to be finished in one shot and that's something you'll have to accept that, but you could turn something ugly into something beautiful. Also, there's tons of depth after the fact with upgrades and all the other stuff surrounding the game. Personally I'm one of those "supergiant overrated" people too, or was for Bastion which was just alright. Hades is a culmination of a lot of great elements that makes for a great game.

Personally I'm one of those "supergiant overrated" people too, or was for Bastion which was just alright. Hades is a culmination of a lot of great elements that makes for a great game. Maybe. I do kind of hate RNG like that My general philosophy is that RNG should be included in a way that forces you to think about risk/reward, but not have a large variance on win outcome as long as you're actually playing well w.r.t. the risk. In Hades, there's not really a strategy to mitigate effects of randomness because it's all independent of anything you do. Instead you simply have to deal with what you're given. DC naturally has a bunch of RNG too, but there are so many ways to shift your starting equipment and it never feels as if it makes big difference on your playthrough and you can still choose between the key styles. In Hades on my 4th run I got to the end of the 4th area because of the items I got (life leech build) and then promptly fell on my face for many next runs because I didn't get those again. I have no doubt a good player can do well without life leech and perhaps even that once you get good there are better builds, but the effect of luck was so significant that it rubbed me the wrong way. I did get better even without that build as I kept going, but then I I just kind of lost interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure room rewards aren’t completely random in any case. You’re not going to get a ton of gemstones/keys/purple stuff several rooms in a row, for example. You’d at least be able to choose other options. Feels like the guiding hand is pretty strong to me. Those five chambers at the end will also always have a heart and coin, for example.

There are a lot of things to unlock that can "nudge" the RNG to a particular thing. Like, there's keepsakes that will insure your next boon will be from a specific god. Or there are mirror abilities that let you reroll boon offerings. IMO, you can beat the game consistently once you get the mechanics (and unlock key upgrades) regardless of what weapons/boons you get. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HardAct Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 I hate these lists so much!! I just went and put Spelunky 2 and Hades in my Steam cart! I haven't even ever heard of Hades, where have I been? Spelunky 2 has always been on my radar but I do get frustrated with overly hard games. With games like Ghost of Tsushima still to get {I haven't played anything on my PS4 Pro except Destiny2 all year!} I end up buying them all up like a Steam sale!! I really really want Hases on Switch but am worried about frame rates so I end up buying them all on PC or xbox, ps4. Guys How well does Hades run on Switch, is the game cross play save file wise and who has it on switch and another console to better compare them? Thanks... Well shit too late bought them both {Spelunky2 and Hades} on steam for $37 something! This way I can play them on my MSI GTX2070 laptop too if I want... Trick is to hold off on Ghosts till Cyberpunk 2077 is finished. I've made it this far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbsolutSurgen Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 I've put about 15 hours into Hades -- and yes, I will admit to sucking at isometric action games (and rogue-lites). And while I think Hades is a very good game, and despite not playing any new releases this year that I adore, I am still surprised that it topped so many GOTY lists.
