Hades 1 is better

[Mr Jt (Gog is king)]

And you know it. Still a decent game

I dunno, man. It's starting to feel like this one might be the better one after all once it's complete.

No one cares.

Compare it with an EA half baked game and fell helluva genius

i think the first one was better too. among the things where the first is superior is more responsive controls and combat, more interesting weapons(subjective opinion). enemies and attacks were also telegraphed better and hit-boxes were tighter. Art was also more interesting imo, in this it feels like some of the work was left to AI.

this one, as EA, has more features than the previous title.
♥♥♥♥♥ please

I can only agree here… The worst part, to me, is the weapons. They are all so… mundane and uninteresting ? In Hades 1, every weapon had its quirks and the aspects would massively change how you play them. In Hades 2… everything feels same-ish and the aspects are mostly just numerical buffs. The very few that actually change your gameplay require very specific builds.

Take the daggers with the homing omega special for instance. If you don’t have Appolo’s growing cast radius and Zeus’ or Hestia’s ranged cast, it’s pretty much useless because playing such a ranged build in melee makes little sense.

Don’t even get me started on the skull that is just the poor man’s adamant rail… and the melee aspect is downright terrible.

I could go on with the other issues, but if the core of the gameplay already has these kinds of issues, it’s not really needed.

It is supposed to be better. It's a complete game, while this is in Early Access...

I have my own complaints on weapons, but it sounds more like you are using weird strategies. If you are playing around the Homing daggers, then look for Boons that work well with that. You can use melee, but that shouldnt necessarily be your focus. Saying melee sucks on the shooty build is weird at best.

Honestly, I think Hades 2 might be better, after playing it for 20 hours so far, the game is alot bigger and very fun, I personally like the characters alot, I also like the setting more. It's definitely growing on me alot and it's still EA. The only thing from Hades 1 that is better is that it's a fully released game and I agree with the majority of the community that the weapons in Hades 2 kinda... needs a bit of love.

But you don't own this game, so your argument is invalid.

Idk I have a ton of time in hades and really love the game but I think the new mechanics, new gods and boons and the new areas are just as good as the first hades. Plus they are still working on it so overall I think once everything is done theres a good chance Hades 2 will be the better game overall. That being said you also don't own the game so idk how you can be so sure that the first one is better.

first rule of steam ♥♥♥♥♥ posting, always check profile to see if it's private. The fact that the guy doesn't even own the game is crazy lmao
