How many runs did it take you to beat Hades the first time?

I never finish games like this, but for some reason the core loop hooked me on Hades and I actually ended up finishing a run on run 43. now i'm on run 80 and I dont see myself ever quitting this game. there is still fresh dialog popping up all the time and i feel like there are a lot of buffs to weapons that I haven't even gotten to try yet, this is by far the most well done action roguelight i've played, Returnal is the only game that can hold a candle to it graphically in the entire genre, but thats a shooter.
great job by microsoft locking this game up on gamepass when they did

It took quite a few for me to complete a run as well. After getting over that mental hurdle, I strung a bunch of wins in a row together.
There are some really cool things later that allow you to increase the difficulty of the game and make it even more challenging, and it will make you think of the things you're doing now as child's play. I think the game really opens up after you win 10 times.

You have to do a shitload of runs just to finish the whole story, and yea, there's a ton of content you haven't done yet, just keep adding to the heat gauge.
One of the best games ever made IMHO, sucks the new one will be early access and not just a straight release.

Will have to check later but it wasn’t quick… I was more concerned with unlocking various mirror options IIRC.

I came very close on my 3rd run thanks to insanely good luck with drops and haven’t come as close since. It’s not something I constantly work towards, I’ll just randomly fire it up here and there and do a run or two. Think I could do it if I really focused in
I can’t stand roguelikes/lites but hades is very well done with great writing and voice work

This was back in early 2021 but I want to say around 10-20 I remember a good bit of my early deaths were shortly into Tartarus since I was getting used to the game. Asphodel starting out was actually not that bad, but then Elysium destroyed me. Styxx felt easy after dealing with some of the enemies in Elysium. Hades got me twice before I managed to beat him. The highest heat that I got through was 11.
I'm looking forward to the sequel.

I'm still struggling with it. Its taken me a while to figure out what boons are worth getting in the first place and using poms on. I was cruising this morning with the bow with 3 death defiances until I ran into elite splitters with no means of deflection. That ate up a life. Then I lost one to the minotaur trying to tank the last 1/20th of his life bar. Handled Hades pretty well until his second form and died about half way into his life bar. Was crushed

I think I beat Hades for the first time on my 39th run. Ive probably gotten 200 runs under my belt at this point. Beat it on 10 heat and decided to take a break and never picked it up again. One of the best games ever made in my opinion.

just grabbed this for $12.49. think i can have some fun with this one. burnt out on civ6 and need some action

I still haven't ever finished. I got as far as Elysium Fields

I feel like I was in the 20's but I truly can't remember. I bet if I started from scratch again I could get it done even faster. Neat game.

Attempt 21 was my first escape. Thought it was going to snowball after that but it really hasn't that much. Runs are definitely easier, but the modifiers kinda keep that in check.

Have it on PC but haven't played since my desktop died.
This thread made me grab it for switch. Hades has incredible replayability. Finishing up a 100% game on Mario Odyssey (or as close to I can without rage quitting.) Then it's time for Hades.

I played it a bunch when it first came out, and it took me way too many times to beat it the first time. then, for whatever reason, I couldn't do it again and stopped trying about 15 runs after the initial win. It's not my type of game I guess.

I think I got it on my 10-11th run. Was able to get a 2nd clear on the next attempt. I never did the full 10 clears that you're supposed to do, but man that game was so much fun.
