Hades II - No Spoilers

Finally bought this a couple days ago after digging out my switch pro controller.
Took a couple hours to get into it and figure out the changes and find a weapon I liked. At first it seemed like a totally different game that they wanted you to play differently than Hades 1, but after playing it for a while and leveling some items up, it plays very similar to the first.
It’s great, I’ve really enjoyed it so far. Not gonna spoil anything but the changes they have made and the new twist they added greatly improved the game and the pacing.
Anyone else playing?

I hit 49/49 achievements on hades I but can’t commit to this one yet. Burnt out I suppose.

I can understand burnout for sure. I think they did some good things in this one to shake it up and help prevent that.
So far the story hasn’t been as captivating tho

I hate the stupid magic crap they force upon you. I think the first was much better, it's a roguelike, i should be able to play a variety of different ways.

I’m with you on this, especially for the first few hours. It does good damage but more importantly it can help you somewhat control the battlefield.
My pro controller has a couple buttons on the back I can use to drop mine without having to take my finger off the main attack button. It’s super helpful when I remember to use it.

The magic stuff is just charged versions of what you already had with a resource. That kind of stuff adds to build variety.

I think it was the transition from playing on a fully unlocked hades 1 save file to playing on a stock hades 2 save file that made the first few runs feel slow and clanky.
Since I got it all figured out I’ve been loving it. The way builds come together is great, don’t think I’ve had a single run yet where I felt like my build was unusable.

Finally got to second phase of chronos, his scythe throw whacked me every damn time.

Yeh that attack does serious damage, have had a couple runs grind to a halt in the same place. And since he’s the Titan of Time, boons or upgrades that slow enemies or their projectiles down don’t work against him.

Back to backed chronos this morning. The second half of phase 2 is just bulletstorm madness.
Posted on 10/23/25 at 9:27 am to j1897
I made it to the credits last night. Hell of a game, still tons of stuff I haven’t done.
