My favorite story now that Hades 2 the video game is in early access, is that Melenöe, Hades daughter, was conceived by Zeus disguised as Hades hitting up Persephone.

They do skip details like this in the Hades games, also skip incest and inbreeding. They dont skip same gender relationships though, so at least there is some details that are retained

I've been holding off getting Hades 2 only because I haven't beaten Hades 1. Which is probably stupid, because it's a roguelike and I could be unable to beat it forever because RNGesus hates me. 🤣

You can do it! Did you beat hades once?

Look up OP builds, use the Hera bow, and start with aprodite's keepsake, and use aprodite's cast with hera bow. This is the only required part for this build. Other than that Athena dash is always the best dash always always, until you find the game becomes easy. Poseidon attack with this build is suggested, but optional.

In the mirror, focus on getting more death defiance, dashes and life regen. After that more health and the one that gives bonus damage if you have two curses on the enemy (you get one from aprodite's cast, and one from poseidon attack + razor shoals boon)

Use the same build over and over again and you will beat hades in a few tries.

Learn the moves, when foes telegraph their attack, dash more. The hardest boss is the second to last boss. Won't explain why, for sake of spoilers of you or someone else hasn't gotten that far.

You should use gold to buy max health, or healing more often. I bet you focus on buying boons first, you don't need that with the build above

When you first manage to beat hades, beat him like 9 times total i think to get the end credits. The prolog after the end credits has more story than before the end credits. Mainly give max amount of nectar to everyone to qualify for the big ending in the prolog
