It's especially crazy to me that, in a game with _insane_ attention to detail, the devs thought a 64-heat victory was so unfathomable that they didn't write any unique Final Boss dialogue for it

[@Michaela_ZC]

I’ve always seen that as intentional. They knew unique interactions would be a big draw for post game content, so they only left little nuggets in places it’d be reasonable to find.

[@nizmei8052]

A lot of people love to see the whole content their favourite game can provide. Placing even a bit of info behind an almost impossible challenge is a horrible decision

@@nizmei8052 that makes a lot of sense. Can't bait the completionists with a challenge that the devs themselves believed to be impossible

[@Dekharen]

You say that but the game has unique dialogue for fresh file first run wins, and hades wins with 0 boons equipped. You won't see about 80% of the dialogue in Hades, because there's a ton of specific dialogue depending on which action you took before. It's not very different, but it is.@@nizmei8052

I’m still giving it my all trying to beat 64 heat on console, one day friends and lovers, one day. I had given up for a while, but seeing that Jade(angel1c) conquered 64 heat gave me hope again.

[@davidthompson9504]

Papa Haelian you dirty dog, good to see you in these parts

[@Ashtarte3D]

The best part is Angel1c did this like not even a week after Haelian gave the numbers on how absurdly RNG heavy this run would be. Loved watching the run when it came out, there was definitely some extremely lucky moments.

[@laytonjr6601]

It takes 85 hours of attempts to get a plausible run on average. There are 168 hours in a week. 112 if you remove 8 hours each day to sleep and eat (and that's still assuming you do nothing but play Hades)

[@Serisar]

@@darthgorthaur258 The run was verified after it was done. And not just "verified", but verified. It took several days for that process to complete. Scepticism is good in this context, but sometimes the impropable happens and that's ok.

@Serisar mate t Just looknat all the other runs that were verified that turned out to be complete bunk, you believe if you an an if she really did it then co grats but I ain't believing it not with the sate speed running is in an has been for almost 2 years now.

[@fire_redux]

@@darthgorthaur258It most certainly is suspicious without a doubt-the odds of this happening so quickly were obscenely low. However, all of the other top players of Hades share this sentiment and have pored over the footage extensively, and as far as they can tell, the run is legitimately unseeded and unmodded. This does not guarantee there wasn’t some other undetectable method used to manipulate the RNG, but no such method is known currently. I always abide by innocent until proven guilty, so I’d say it’s better to trust the run is legit until there’s actual evidence to believe otherwise.

I was hoping you’d make this. I’ve seen videos about this accomplishment. But I couldn’t comprehend how impressive it actually was.

[@Psychobabble6]

The most impressive thing (to me) is her dodging skills. It’s like she phases through enemies. She only takes damage once in the final fight because of the acorn, meaning she got hit just six times the entire fight.

[@Caio22011]

Yeah, I don't know how impressive you are thinking this is... It's even MORE impressive than that, I'm sure

[@badger297]

Im in my 30s and have always blown off this genre of games. I just never thought it was for me. I decided to try hades a while back when it was on gamepass. I became literally addicted to this game. It was all i could think about at work if i wasnt playing. Cant wait for the 2nd one

[@MudakTheMultiplier]

Worth noting that the shield isn't picked because of the block or AOE attacks specifically, it's picked because it has a build that can win that can get online the quickest.

[@Zyruvias]

100%, it has been theorized that other shields can clear 64 heat (and angelic herself has cleared with other shields with Routine Inspections 4, the hardest part of the challenge), but they are so much needier in terms of build quality. Charged shot zag shield and possibly chaos could do it. Eris with delta chamber might be able to.

[@OhNoTheFace]

**watches a bunch of parts in the run where angelic is just blocking attacks and lasers** Sure . . .

[@MudakTheMultiplier]

@@OhNoTheFace like sure it *helps* but not dying is one of the easier parts of this run.

[@Zyruvias]

​@@OhNoTheFace Eris with delta chamber is only possible because delta chamber prevents invincibility frames from being lost when attacking during the dash, so it's inherently much safer to be aggressive and deal damage quickly AND safely. for all parts where damage was blocked, you can simply dash away and deal damage from afar instead of having to be up close with the shield. it's much less likely than this run for sure, but in theory another winning combination.

[@xCherished]

Hades is such an incredible game. 62 heat is already crazy I can’t even get close

Also gotta remember you need a specific hammer for this run to even be feasible, and you need to not see it in the first chamber, adding to the insane RNG of this run (it's a run ender if you don't see Zeus in the first chamber, otherwise you won't have the DPS to meet the time deadline)

This doesn't need only luck, and doesn't need only skill. It is both of these, plus incredible nerve control. It's fun to imagine how insanely focus she must have been when doing this. I met Angelic when she popped up when I was streaming Hades; all the runners that came in contact with me were super supportive, and wanted the community to grow so much! It makes me happy that this run was achieved by someone cool like that. What impresses me the most about Hades runs is the sheer amount of RNG; in many speedruns and challenges, enemy positions and attacks are pre-determined. Here, you need to adapt to every situation and combination of enemies and combination of different attacks they can do, with different items you'll have each run. Adaptability is still one of the most impressive gaming skills in my perspective. Congrats on the amazing feat Angelic; majority of people, even people that have played Hades, wouldn't begin to comprehend how fantastically difficult this is. The fact you did it less than a week after Haelian made a video documentary about how this would never be achieved, is peak hilarity, and just shows how far your determination goes.

Nobody thought it would happen, until it just ... Did. By one of the few people in the world capable of it. It was awe inspiring and moving. I really hope you showcase more from Hades in the future! As a community we're close to getting sub-6 minute times on every aspect in the modded category. Nitrostarch also recently got an incredible sub-18 fresh file time.

So, with actual run made, and Karl's video out, are we now just waiting for SummoningSalt "Hades: the quest for 64 heat run" video to finaly be free?

[@robertron5303]

this is insane man..blowing my mind currently. Thanks for the info Karl and congratz to the player. wow

[@LareytWasTaken]

One hilarious thing is that this run happened within 1 hour of AngeL1C trying to beat 64 heat while doing a couple of runs just for fun. Though she did previously beat 64 heat in a modded run and that took nearly 3,000 hours to achieve, which explains where all the practice came from.

[@ChuckDarwin1909]

Ok, I feel like a question went unanswered - did Angelic get all of the luck required for that 1 in 6,800 run, or were some factors overcome?

[@thenonexistinghero]

Definitely. It was kinda rushed over. All that build up, yet no payoff because nothing was explained about the particulars of the run.

[@lex4103]

She got everything required for that run yes! But she also did get the worst luck possible for a still viable run (some optimal boons she got some pretty useless ones and she got the Zeus boon quite late)

[@CrownedGaming]

Very well done video! Thank you!

[@qgpizzagaming3595]

Great vid i cant wait to see more

[@insertgenericusernamehere2402]

Ah finally. An actual story, not drama or boring nonsense about Billy Mitchell we know he's a liar. Don't need many videos to prove that.

[@DubYuhGChoppa]

It feels funny to just finish watching a video from Bismuth about Goldeneye, and then Karl posts a video about a game I've never even heard of. And in both cases the video is about beating the respective game with absolute maximum difficulty settings.

[@AndrewBlechinger]

there's no way Karl hasn't heard about that DLTK clear, I'm sure he's cooking something in between meeting his lawyers.

[@PointBlanch]

Great video and thanks for shouting out Haelian, of course.

[@kazeryuu3603]

Awesome video as always Karl

[@oxyghene]

truly amazing. recommend anyone to watch the entire run on her channel. it's amazing and that final boss, jesus christ, when she took the skull near the end I was standing up. as someone who has 500 hours into this game and struggled for 2 months to beat the last heat with a reward, it's all almost unthinkable. if anyone is "an absolute legend", that's Angel1c (also recommend watching Haelian's reaction - too precious. dude was genuinely happy to have been proven wrong

[@shakeweller]

Random comment, but PLEASE pick up this game. Even if you've never played a roguelike before, it's amazing. Best game of 2020 hands down

[@jamesoshea580]

I can't afford to, sorry.

[@Frost.Emote1.0]

64 heat and even with 35 seconds left on the timer- that’s just so insanely impressive

[@EkiToji]

You forgot the time Billy Mitchel did 66 heat in 2018.

[@RoyalJester17]

The best part was the fact that it only took a few days to beat after Haelian said it was impossible.

[@cjc2010]

I hope the community actually vets it this time. I’m sick of hearing about cheaters years down the line.

[@mumei178]

She submitted it to the 50 heat category on SRC (any run 50 heat or over is eligible) and it has been verified.

[@cubeyblok793]

great video, now i want to pick up playing Hades again!

[@Fender178]

It just amazes me that people figure out a way to do something deemed impossible or not practical by the developers and other great players of Hades or any game for that matter. Very impressive and congrats to Angelic on a job well done.

[@adolfolerito6744]

“Her”?! You mean that it was a girl who finally managed to beat 64 heat??

[@aroace7913]

Yep.

[@joshuakelly9390]

(Not really) is the big qualifier here.

[@aroace7913]

@@joshuakelly9390 Yes really, she did it.

[@BreadPitt7]

Not interested in this game at all but I’ll still watch it. Your content is that good. Thank you Karl!

[@kristoffer8609]

True. I'll watch a video about some trans guy doing something, just because it's Karl. He makes anything interesting.

[@oshimia6746]

You should give the game a try, it's fantastic.

[@BanditHeroTV]

Everytime you upload a new video Billy Mitchell shakes when he gets that notification.

[@Mimiyan_or_Pikapikafan]

I haven't played Hades before, but i can tell that this is a challenge that puts you into the gaming world's hall of fame. Congrats to the victor!

[@Lobomaru02]

*applauds* Well done, Angelic! As a man who platinumed Hades, I applaud your achievement and offer the greatest congratulations.

[@kh.754]

I can't imagine how hard his heart must have been working

[@moonlight2870]

Her heart

[@joshuakelly9390]

@@moonlight2870 His heart

[@thenonexistinghero]

@@joshuakelly9390 Basically the first thing I wonder when I heard 'her' and 'she'. I don't think there's any biological born female who competes on the highest level of play. Whenever an actual biological female gets a world record on something in gaming, it's always because the competition isn't that fierce.

[@thechosenone9361]

This comment is so 1980s

[@Lyunpaw]

Can't wait for the update to this victory.

[@TritonTv69420]

Karl ma boi! Hope you are well YOU ABSOLUTE LEGEND!!

[@SUPERFunStick]

Not only is it insane, but it's a female in a male dominated activity destroying one of the hardest games ever made in first place! So many amazing feats in one achievement! She deserves all the love we can give her. A true trail blazer and the very definition of an absolute legend!

[@davidullrich3677]

lol

[@delicioustoast123]

it's...not a female. it's a man who thinks theyre a woman

[@johnguylw]

The boys stay winning

[@agentvictoria4021]

as always, if you have a problem there is a trans person with the specific skillset to solve it

[@Josh-mon]

Todd Rogers double tapped the x button at the right moment and unlocked 65 heat

[@garrettabcdefg4602]

I heard billy mitchell beat it on 69 heat. Confirmed witnesses

[@jonathaningram8157]

The moment I heard him say « her » the first thing in my mind that popped was « trans » and I was right. There is a weird link between speedrunner and trans.

[@cyber_rachel7427]

Lmao this comment made me think of that Sonic fandub where Shadow starts rambling about speedrunning and the 'radical left'

[@skyleite]

Common anime pfp L

[@delicioustoast123]

it's a hobby that doesn't require one to go outside and deal with people who won't coddle your delusions.

[@metzli5797]

This was already incredibly impressive, but hearing this was done by a woman is truly outstanding. Almost every top speedrunner of any game ever is a guy. Well done Angel1c, showing it's the gamer, not the gender.

[@bruh_moment]

was waiting for this video

[@ViaEffects]

I LOVE this game, deserves all the love! Only game I grinded for every achievement

[@oshimia6746]

This is the second game I've done that on. The first was FTL, I recommend it if you haven't played it.
