This video is a bit misleading. Yes, you can press left or right to dodge, but that is functionally the same as pressing back. The game has no concept of lateral dodges, only of low and high dodges. The reason why its working is because the regular enemies will do a high attack 99% of the time (and shifting back while dodging is a "high dodge"). It can also work against elite enemies, you simply have to match the direction. Orange attacks simply means they cannot be blocked so you have to do the proper parry or dodge

Hey hey! Totally valid criticisms my dude. I’d love to add more over time - I think I got a little carried away with making it LOOK exactly how I wanted and neglected adding more complex gameplay elements it needs. That’s not to say I’m not happy with it as is - but I wholly agree that some evolution in gameplay would really ratchet it up. I think the overall impetus for this game was “short, sweet, and cheap game that I can make in a month or two (or three…)” so when it was like “we can push it back a few months and add more content” it felt like it was starting to lose the forest for the trees. Either way, so glad you played em all and loved watching this. <3

Its a good game, but I don't know if it hits a 10. Maybe in the Rogue-Like genre. But otherwise it would probably sit at a 9. Hades 2 at an 8 for now, early access should fix that up.

Hades 2 is the weaker game of the two... Its not bad but its not particularly more fun or better in any way than its predecessor. Im still gonna keep playing it and hopefully the weapons, monsters, and boons will be made more fun.

I totally get that. Weapons don't feel as good as the 1st and the booms seem to be mostly the same. I'm guessing the weapons will get tweaks in early access, not sure on the boons.

ive been struggling to have fun in this game . absolutely loved the first one but this one i just simply dont enjoy. it is only the gameplay i dislike as for the story, characters music and stuff i still think are as amazing as the first . i just found that i really disliked how it plays, this game feels more like i should stay at a safe distance and play slowly since all the enemies are just damage sponges and the bosses hit like a mf truck.. the one thing that really turned me off was the dash sprint . i would way rather have a separate button to sprint and button to dash, instead of this hold dash to dash into a sprint . it just feels so off to me idk why they changed the simple but perfect dash they had in the first. it feels like it wanted to be too different from the original, which isnt necessarily a bad thing but i liked it when i would feel like a god in the original game . now no matter what boons i find or weapons i use my character feels slow and weak
@Stryftek4 ай бұрын
Oh - why so? Have you been able to unlock and try some of the other weapons?
@kirakai4 ай бұрын
The dash in Hades 1 was brain dead, especially after picking up the double dash upgrade. You actually have to pick your spots to go in and pay attention to enemy instead of rolling face on the attack + dash buttons. It's much much better designed once you get a feel for it. Also some boons in Hades 1 were so broken they trivialised the rest. You could often complete runs with just 1 or 2 key boons. Hades 2 takes a little more skill and your build choices actually matter.
