Hes just a baby your hONOR!!

[gettingnowherefaster]

real nerd gamer talk but. reading the comments on steam for the latest Hades II patch… wow. people are very rude. To a small indie studio who is honestly doing amazing work.

Also the people claiming certain aspects of the current version make it unplayable.... idk get better I guess? It's also okay to admit something is hard and you can't do it?

I JUST HAVE TO SAY ON HERE THAT IF YOU THINK THIS WONT CONVINCE YOU, I JUST TALKED TO CHARON ON ONE OF MY TRIPS DOWN.

THIS IS WHEN I FINALLY GOT IN CONTACT WITH MOROS AT THE CROSSROADS MY SWEET BELOVED

MELINOËS LIKE "Oh now we have 3 of Nyxs sons in the crossroads! Except ones sleeping more then the rest oops"

And CHARON BUDDY OMFG

Melinoë is like "Huh??? What do you mean that fits Hermes more??"

...... Correct me if I'm wrong BUT DOESNT HE MEAN BY EXTENSION THAT HERMES would FIT the role of SON *coughs* in law *COUGHS* BETTER??? WITH SAID FAMILY???? Jfc SUPERGAINT YOU ARE NOT BEATING THE ALLIGATIONS WITH THOSE TWO THAT WELL LMAO

Hermes design in Hades 2 looks… interesting 👀💍

Hmgngnhmgmh okay being a little freak rn but one of my favourite details in hades 2 is in ephyra and it relates to two things:

1. The pose that heracles’ model has (forgive the low quality I had to get these screenshots from a video lol)

2. The statue of hades that’s in the background

The first thing my nerdy ass noticed about both of these was “OH MY GOD LIKE THE STATUE!!!!!”

This is the farnese hercules and it depicts heracles leaning on his club (draped in the nemean lion skin) and unseen behind his back he is holding the apples of the hesperides

This, quite recognizably, is a stature of hades. He’s missing one arm similar to the one in the game, and to his right (our left) is cerberus, which is reverse to the statue in game. Here he holds his bident but unfortunately it’s missing the “bi” part so it just looks like a staff

I don’t really know where I’m going with this I just thought that it was cool that supergaint games took inspiration from real art :)

What other fandoms are you in? Any Anime or Games that you like?

Well, honestly, I have a distant relationship with Fandom. I tend to just carve out my little niches.

I think part of that I'm a BIG O COMICS FAN. And the is a rough fandom that I don't like interacting with because I don't think it's enough of talking about the *art* of comic making and more about how your fave is better than everyone else. Minus 10 points if your favorite is Batman and you think Batman could be everyone. With that, you may have noticed I'm a Big Jason Todd reader. And while I'm staying away from main line continuity right now, I just picked up Robin Lives #2.

But Also I need to pick up the second volume of My Favorite Thing is Monsters (Please please ask me about this comic it's so good)

Anime wise, I haven't kept up today. I watched first season of Demon slayer. But that's about as recent as I got. I do really love the classic though Sailor Moon (And a lot of magical girl stuff), Space Pirate Captain Harlock (mostly anything Leiji Matsumoto but Harlock was is a special interest of mine Like I hunted SSX and I own a DVD of the 97 series as well has having the ZIV dub) and Black Jack are the things I can think off the top of my head.

Games I've been playing a tone of Coral Island recently. By that, It shouldn't be a surprise, I've played a lot of (modded) Stardew and Animal Crossing. But If you to really get me going, any Supergiant Games Game. Particularly Hades and Pyre. Pyre is one of those games I can't recommend… Because it feels specifically made for me with 1) an amazing story and 2) 3 on 3 basketball. That bit's not a joke. That's actually gameplay. And I'm not playing Hades 2 yet because Supergaint's Stories are so good. I'm happy with just waiting for the full release.

Submitted by  unrespectable-queer:

I’m so goddamn tired of background radiation fatphobia. I got Hades, since it’s all over the place and Supergiant Games’ stuff is pretty dependably a good time. And it’s just…. really struck me how out of all the intricately ovedesigned characters in the game, there doesn’t seem to be a single fat person. Unless you count generic enemy no.3, described in-game as the ghosts of “prodigious, boorish entities, who doubtless were intolerable even when they lived”. I fucking hate it here. I can’t stop thinking “this game hates me, and it doesn’t even have the decency to realize it hates me”. I entertained the thought of redesigning some of the characters but I’m not sure I want to produce fanart for this thing.

Which is not to say Hades is uniquely fatphobic or anything. This is such standard shit I bet for most people it doesn’t register. I bet for the developers it didn’t register. But I’m so sick of this casual, unconscious fatphobia. I’m so sick of getting stuck trying to derive enjoment from media that treats me as subhuman. I’m sick of having to put walls up and assume everyone and everything is fatphobic unless proven otherwise. I’m just so sick of it.

Addendum to the Hades thing: being fat is extremely isolating.

In media I consume, I’m lucky if there’s one fat character who’s even remotely salvageable (I’ll genuinely take Roadhog or Ursula the Sea Witch over nothing) or if it’s not in a visual medium that there’s enough leeway to interpret a character as fat in a positive way.

Among small internet creators, it often seems I’m the only one making the kind of representation I want to see. There’s people making dozens upon dozens of unique ocs, all with unique designs and backstories, all of them thin. And obviously it’s not my place to tell anyone how to do their own hobbies, but I can’t help feeling tired and alone with my tiny pile of fat positive - scratch that, fat neutral art that no one but me seems to care about.

So again, I’m not saying Hades is in any way exceptional or even noteworthy in its fatphobia. It’s completely bog standard. It’s made of the exact same kind of shit I’ve had to slog my way through my entire life. Just like every anime whose array of unique and creative character designs don’t include a single fat person, just like every disney movie relegating fat people to comic relief, just like the whole goddamn world. And i can’t do anything about it, but I can at least hate it with all the vitriol I can muster. Fuck this.

Mod Squirrel: I hate this too, and this is the first time I’m hearing about this enemy. 

Described as: Wretched Louts are the shades of mortals who were unusually aggressive, unpleasant, and uncouth in life. Louts do not use weapons, but instead attack with a fast, long-range rushing charge.

Because you know, why not just shove every fat stereotype into one character in this the year 2020. 

This is so frustrating and I can relate to this entire submission. Why can’t game creators make fat characters. Also why can’t fan creators respect fat bodies? Why can’t people just see our bodies as valuable as thin ones when making media? 

I am so tired by this. And I’m so disappointed in this game because I love some Greek Pantheon inspired media.

I haven’t use tumblr for years and it took me some time to figure out how to reply repost🫥

I saw some clips from the movie I think? Odysseus cried before his mom really got me there. And yeah the whole underworld part is when I started to doubt that ody may lied about some details, the version I read was that Achilles told Odysseus he would rather live a life as farmer working in the fields than being died, like,really??? And the part Ajax’s still mad at him, that’s definitely not a lie, he deserved it.

Yep Odysseus’s revenge is most likely to happen, to be fair Constantine does similar irresponsible things all the time and eventually all of those things gonna come back and kick his ass one day, and he deserves it and gets used to it too. He probably just be “well worse things could happen”.

And I’m really not sure if hades 2 ody is Indian or not, cuz skin tone really doesn’t matter much in hades games, like the case with Athena and Apollo ( seriously Apollo and Artemis are twins they can’t be so different from each other). And I just love the character designs, Odysseus brings lots of maps with him just the bonus, boy if gods gonna make you lost again there’s really nothing you can do about it. And they made him broke up with Penelope WHY just WHYYYIE🫠 If supergaint has to take her away from the game can we at least have Diomedes or other Iliad character back🫠

Hellblazer • Hades 2 • Epic the musical crossover, inspired by @katerinaaqu

It’s quite funny that John’s and Odysseus’s past are always so close behind, and there’re more than one skeletons hidden in their closets.

The difference is Constantine’s used to be haunted by his dead friends and would let them die AGAIN cuz of his arrogance, and he’s having a good time down in the underworld. Odysseus on the other hand, He wept as he drove away relatives and friends shades who wanted to eat sheep's blood with his sword( and let’s not forget he tried to hug his mom three times, THREE TIMES, yeah Agamemnon tried to hug him too but failed), and gonna have panic attacks and mental meltdown.

Constantine probably just like “ hey if they bother you that much I can expel them permanently, free of charge.” And Odysseus would be “ WHAT?! NO!!”

you know everyone thinks it's so cute when someone wears their Boyfriend's clothes, but the last time Patroclus did that, it didn't end well

I was straight before I played this game /jk

[quillfulwriter]

Ever wonder how Hades reacts if you use his boon against him? Now you know.

[spineless-lobster]

who is this zagreus fellow

*cracks knuckles*

Oh boy where do I start (this meme is the epitome of him tbh)

This lovely lad is zagreus from the hit supergaint game Hades!!! (I’m currently installing it woooo!!!)

He is the son of hades and prince of the underworld, the gist of his story is that he finds out his real mother persephone is living on the surface and he tries to escape the underworld (time and time again, with the help of the olympians) to meet her and return her to the underworld

He has:

Daddy issues ✅

Bisexual ✅

Stupid ✅

Too kind for his own good ✅

Sillygoofy ✅

Polyamorous ✅

Looking for meaning in his life ✅

Chaotic good ✅

Fucking Death (literally fucking Death incarnate) ✅

Heterochromia ✅

And I love him deeply lol, I hope this was an effective summary!

[bigboss-chan]

Thanatos made the BITCHIEST comment about the surface being so bright so ‘wHy DoN’t U aSk DaEdAlUs To MaKe U sOmE sUnGlAsSeS zAg’ and it killed me on the spot and now i can’t get the image of Than in cute sunglasses out of my head...so here we are 

[dayesdawn]

omg omg they are making Hades 2!!!

Supergiant is my favourite developer, Hades is probably my favourite game. I can not wait for this!
