Mr. House 3,371 Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Godly game. You should try it even if you don 't like roguelikes in general. This one oozes quality and the gameplay is really solid. It's better than the studio's previous games and I've played them all Bastion , Transistor, Pyre... I loved Hades way more but if you hated those games it might still not be your thing, you can see the influence but it's the best they have ever been, imo. Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t care for rougelikes in general and hades definitely did nothing for me. Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah it's possible, what I mean really is that the roguelike elements are not frustrating, at least in my experience. I've played some really slow paced and frustrating roguelike games in my life. I find that Hades progressed far more smoothly and always expanded the experience as it went along. The story somehow manages to progress even during failure. The roguelike concept is well integrated with the narrative, the gameplay is fun and evolves rapidly, the game is fast paced with no downtimes and it keeps giving more meaningful content as you play more. Plus a great artstyle, solid gameplay, fun boss fights, a good soundtrack, fantastic voice acting and a great story to top it off. I'm not saying it's perfect, but what the game excels at is truly masterfully done, imo. At least compared to indie games in general. Link to post Share on other sites

The story was interesting but it has the same issues as every other roguelike for me. I just don't find it fun to clear out the same rooms of the same enemies over and over again. It was fun at first but once I reached the 10-12 hour mark I decided that I had had enough of it. Link to post Share on other sites

Fair enough. The game could have used a few more enemy types, that's true. Link to post Share on other sites
