Aeolus?! Will the god of wind arrive?!

[Codo]

I'm happy to see Hestia and Hephaestus coming on in, and Apollo's cool too. But the God of the Winds is always the one I'm most eager to see, and rarely gets to appear in a lotta games. D:

Consdering Odysseus is in here, and one of the gods who helped him the most (even if it caused trouble ultimately) was Aeolus. There's plenty of gameplay potential with wind abilities, things that move enemies away from you, towards you, stunning them, redirecting projectiles, ADDITIONAL projectiles when firing things, and it fits -perfectly- with Melinoe's playstyle of trying to keep distance to enemies.

I don't know if the devs check these kinda threads at all, and I could just be shoutin' into the void here. But goodness gracious, if there's -ONE- thing, just one, that I could hope to see in this game? Seeing Aeolus in Hades 2 is definitely my tippy-top hope for the game. Heck, even if not as one of the gods granting boons, just having them appear at all would be dope as heck. I just wonder who else here actually would be hoping for seeing the God of Wind as well.

it's certainly possible. i will say that, having done some brief research, the mythology surrounding aeolus is very... confusing lol. but that's to his benefit, i think; supergiant has stated that they enjoy the flexibility of writing obscure gods, and their way of reconciling the orphic zagreus with the chthonic one was one of the best parts of hades.

That's kinda another reason I hope to see Aeolus. There's so little written about him, and there's some conflicts to what is. Things like the four winds. There's a lot of little tidbits to pull from, and they've already shown how well they can twist it into something fun and compelling... Soooo I kinda hope they give it that treatment, ya know?
