Hades Family Reunited | Persephone returns to the Underworld

[@amanofnoreputation2164]

Cerberus is the one thing you would expect to be a boss in a game about escaping the underworld. Instead he's the only thread binding a dysfunctional family and you never fight him.

Tbf, when you first beat Hades, the first thing he tells you to tell Persephone is that Cerberus is doing well. Safe to say Cerberus is everyone’s favorite family member.

The fact that Zagreus hears the music implies that either Orpheus or Eurydice has an electric guitar.

[@TuanTranMelinoeZagreus4880]

The fact that Hades (King of the Underworld) still loves his son Zagreus as his wife Persephone (Queen of the Underworld). Also, don’t forget that Zagreus (Prince of the Underworld) has two older sisters Macaria (Nymph of the Underworld) and Melinoe (Princess of the Underworld).

[@Alexandraadftxr7052]

Zagreus also has a brother, and technicly Dionysus as an adopted brother, because in some versions Persephone toke care of him.

[@TuanTranMelinoeZagreus4880]

@@Alexandraadftxr7052 The Orphic Hymns are such a liar, this is why I hate it and Dionysus. However, I love Zagreus (Prince of the Underworld) because I do care him the most, which includes his elder sister Melinoe. Like I said that I always believe that Melinoe and Zagreus are immortal deities and they were children of Persephone and their father was actually Hades, not Zeus. Just because I heard many children was said that they were children of Zeus, just because it’s kinda selfish and at least I would like to hear the others children of the other Gods and Goddesses like children of Poseidon, children of Demeter, children of Ares, children of Aphrodite, children of Apollo, and children of Hermes. Also, I wonder what happened if evil Hera find out and kill them, and who gonna take that responsible. This is the why I hate about the Orphic Hymns because it’s telling lie, falsehood and wasn’t true. In fact, I always believe that Hecate was daughter of Perses (God of Destruction) and Asteria (Goddess of Star), Euterpe was a Muse of Music 🎵 and Joyful, Chrysothemis of Crete was son of Demeter and Carmanor of Crete, Aglaea and Euphrosyne were daughters of Zeus and Eurynome.

When I arrived at the surface and saw this scene I had chosen the bow and my build was total crap. I thought I'm never going to beat him with that and what a pleasant surprise it was, that he just let's you go without a fight.

[@anisa3962]

same for me my dmg was so bad

[@JJ_-fp9sj]

When I got this interaction I was playing with the exagryph and I was shit with it, never gotten out with it. So I thought I'd die instantly. And then he lust left me go. For like a month it was the only time I got out with the rail.

[@cameronmcallister7606]

One thing that this implies is that he could have spent more time talking to Persephone, if only she built a jetty into the styx for him to stand on. Wouldn't have died, according to this interpretation.

[@alertedcoyote7892]

It's more so that they're aboard Charon's boat, which sails the Styx. That river itself isn't literally the Styx, afaik, the Styx is more metaphorical. The water around Charon's boat is the Styx, the rest is just river, at least until you get into the underworld

[@XSilver_WaterX]

Can we at least take the fact the Demeter, a Princept force of Nature, will wipe out the entire MATERIAL plane if Persephone doesn't keep her promise of retuning every mid-spring to late-fall, and blame it on the gods themselves!? As much as Hades does a good job of flavoring the characters, remember those gods have quite literally tried to wipe out humankind on a meta-physical level! Unintentional or not.

[@reverseflashes]

I finally brought Persephone back today and I loooved their family reunion! I loved the part where the first thing Persephone has done was to greet Cerberus, the part Hades finally apologized to Zagreus that Zagreus accepted his dad's apology yet didn't shy away from expressing his resentment and hurt. It was a beautiful reunion. I just had to come on KZbin and watch it again. Thanks for sharing this my friend! And I have a question if anyone wants to answer: this isn't the *end* end right? Because I still have more nectars to give to Thanatos *wink* and then there's reuniting Eurydice and Orpheus and more etc... so I should keep playing is that correct? I've seen some videos, I don't mind being spoiled and there seems to be still so much to do. I've never been a vg player but honestly, Hades might be the best game I've ever played. Even having dreams about it lol.

[@vulpixle9659]

Oh there’s is quite a bit more to do in this game like the whole family reunion with everyone on mount Olympus ending up with Meg or Thanatos fully redecorating the lounge etc

@@vulpixle9659 hi yes i've progressed A LOT in the game after i brought persephone back. it's kind of embarrassing how fast i did tho lol i mean i left my previous comment 4 weeks ago 😳😂 i really play this game non-stop lol. the feast, achilles&pat, nyx&chaos, orpheus&eurydice, freeing sisyphus etc all done. and i've fulfilled most of the prophecies except for learning how to play the lyre and the legendary boons. but i still couldn't get the interaction with asterius and hypnos to bring hypnos the autograph. zag asked asterius about skelly tho i got to that at least. sorry for the long reply i just can't get enough of this game. i hope we get hades 2. persephone telling zag maybe they could find a way for him to stay in olympus with her and that "is there no escape?" line give me so much hope i think we really do might get a sequel!! 🤩🤩🤩

[@vulpixle9659]

@@reverseflashes same I have around 100+ hours on hades super giants games should really consider making a sequel or even DLC perhaps fighting the other gods for training maybe getting boons for Persephone or Cerberus being a summon it would be amazing also the best way to get the autograph for Hypnos is to talk to asterius when he’s alone he has a mini boss fight you can encounter in elyssium

[@reverseflashes]

@@vulpixle9659 thanks mate!! maybe we need to lose to asterius?? bc you know how we get different hypnos responses to unique deaths?? idk but yeah i'm trying to get asterius mini boss fight whenever i can.

[@regabrielexv]

The true ending of the main story is when you help organizing a feast in order for Olympic and Ctonian gods to make peace - Persephone will propose this to you. In addition, the subplots are: 1. Romance with Dusa, Meg and Than; 2. Reuniting Eurydice with Orpheus and Achilles with Patroclus; 3. Free Sisyphus; 4. Help Nyx and Chaos reconcile. And you can also max your bond with every character. As for game mechanics, you can try to unlock and realize every Fate Prophecy (also containing those O said earlier)

[@spooks2710]

The begining of this just reminds me so much of the Asgore Fight in Undertale.

Same thought, good friend. It's always the beginning of every boss fight, and that, too.
