I think the "most projectiles" thing means some special projectiles can't be destroyed like Hecate's sheep hex but everything else can.

@Retromation Месяц назад

oh 100%, it is just that in _practice_ it comes in handy a lot less than you'd think due to the super slow startup of sprinting

@THYnameISsarcasm Месяц назад

It's probably going to be insane for a lot of bosses, the original had a lot of bullet hell boss fights

@lukezondervan8094 Месяц назад

The fun irony of Hestia having a placeholder portrait is that we basically know nothing about her- she was so commonplace that stuff about her wasn't written down! Basically, if she ended up with a similar portrait in the final build, it would be a fun anthropology joke

@VagrantCrusader Месяц назад

A web serial I was working on previously had some stuff to do with the Greek gods, especially Hestia at the start, and it was just... impossible.

@LordDragox412 Месяц назад

There was one thing uncovered by anthropologists recently. It was a scroll with the text saying "Hestia best girl". So at least we know that.

The "oooh" at Selene is right, what a gorgeous design. And the ability Reto picked gave him a laser beam?? Sign me up, Selene!

@ManlyPicnics Месяц назад

I'm glad Reto also noticed Hecate being the same VA as the Narrator in BG3, was the first thing I thought when she spoke. But she's a banging VA, so it makes sense she'd be in another banger game.

This game already seems like it has some really interesting build variety. This teleporting backstab fight style was EXTREMELY satisfying to watch.

@Borderlines Месяц назад

I think Hestia might not be Hestia at all. She is the goddess of the hearth and its comforting flames, the most peaceful among the olympians and Melinoe is surprised that she's even active the first time. Also some of her gifts seem to be double edged, which are kinda odd.

@Borderlines Месяц назад

Maybe it's that damn Eris copying Hestia again stirring up something

@SomeoneTookMyOldName Месяц назад

Keep in mind that in the first game, hesia was supposed to have been the first to wield the gun, so she might just be different from myth

@johnyshadow Месяц назад

I could see that. But we also have Demeter, the goddess of harvest as the winter goddess (seasons). Though that one is explained by her daughter missing.

@kyrab7914 Месяц назад

I think they're just giving her reason for giving up her partin the 12 Olympians

@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868 Месяц назад

I think you can stop the sheep blast, you just lost your slowdown because it only triggers while charging up, not while holding charge

@justspillingguts Месяц назад

i got access to the technical after watching ur first video, ive not been this hyped for a game in so long, hope i get early access (somehow) and even more excited to pre order. Havent watch this video yet but I'd definitely recommend trying it out on controller, I find it much more smooth to play with

@lunari3597 Месяц назад

Looking at this gameplay, I guess dashing also counts as a sprint(not sure if you need to hold the dash key down though). Could clearly see the projectiles disappear on dashing. Also I guess the reason why you got hit by a projectile(at about 22:09) is: You cancelled the dash/sprint to a omega charge move, which disables the dash/sprint boon effect. Just like how the other comment said, wonder what are the special projectiles that can't be destroyed? On Hecate's attacks, it seems it's impossible to destroy most of her "projectiles" except the tiny bubble ones. Wish it could destroy her sheep hex and trigger Hecate's secret annoyed dialogue.

@johnyshadow Месяц назад

Omg, we NEED a secret way to turn Hecate into a sheep using her own spell.

@ultimateprogamer5843 Месяц назад

I don't believe that they will hard cut you off after 5 wins. At least from what i can infer from the language used such as "please consider your participation in this technical trial to be complete", it seems like they are soft capping you at 5 wins or in other words they are suggesting you to stop after 5 wins cause their aint much left story and likely gameplay wise to explore after that, but I'm sure that you can still play after those 5 wins there just isn't anymore unlocks or cutscenes to get after the 5 wins.

@yadamspiezer Месяц назад

Nah, it's been confirmed that you can't do any runs after 5 wins.

@medbii Месяц назад

This is the video that made me realize Amelia Tyler voices both the BG3 Narrator and Hecate. When I first heard Hecate speak I immediately went "Hm... She sounds familiar".

@n_0094 Месяц назад

Can Hecate become a sheep?

@ainsleyhogan6015 Месяц назад

Nope! If you try to use the Hex that inflicts morph on her she resists it and you get a unique dialog line, lol.

I kinda wish the sprint boons still effected your dash. Might be broken with some abilities, but they kinda feel underwhelming as is.

How's the build variety compared to first game ?

@EODVods Месяц назад

Hey Reto, love your videos as always! I played a ton of the first hades; probably atleast 100 hours of it, and from what im seeing so far the new mana system needs major tweaking if they want to implement this, it seems like a casting build is absolutely far outclassing anything else when it comes to investment to reward ratio. Why bother seeking daedalus hammers or primary damage upgrades when you can just within 2 upgrades and with mana regen cards be able to spam out 1 shot projectiles back to back? Would love to hear what everyone else thinks!

@johnyshadow Месяц назад

I think the Hammers can affect any type of attack (depending on weapon), so they should work with cast builds. (If you´re lucky.) Other than that, you ARE playing as a witch. (More or less.) So more magick-y build seems appropriate. But yeah, I´d need to get my hands on the game to really get a feel for it. One thing I´ll say, mana regen needs to be (more of) a thing. There already are a few ways, but they seem almost mandatory, like with the ultimate (hex) that you might not even be able to use without certain upgrades.

@EODVods Месяц назад

@johnyshadow I believe they do I just meant the empowered "omega" attacks that use mana seem to be the focus, though I do agree that it feels on brand for the character and setting I think it does make mana regen and as a result the empowered attacks feel like an overly important focus over basic attacks/specials/spells. Thanks for your input! :)

@johnyshadow Месяц назад

@@EODVods Difinitely more of a "core" skill, yes. But already I´ve seen a few skills that "lock away" part of your mana, so you need to focus on basic attacks more. Also one hammer that disabled the charge to empower the basic attack. But it remains to be seen how viable that build type is. (Hey, I´m a mage main, so I´m bound to find excuses. xD )

@nadaqueveraqui.6026 Месяц назад

Is there any reason you don't use the cast? You know the big circle that traps enemies for a bit.

@Retromation Месяц назад

yeah, it is a bit clunky and halts your movement too in a weird way. If I don't get additional benefit from it, e.g. slow, damage, etc, I'd rather just actually kill the enemy. Then they are cc'ed _forever._

@dragon109-ui6cd Месяц назад

@zBurlz Месяц назад

Can you turn the voice volume up for these videos? The Hades voice acting is one of the biggest draws to the game (and therefore your video).

@Retromation Месяц назад

I have the voice volume at 100% and the rest of the game at 35% and this is the result, it is actually wild

@gamemeister2905 Месяц назад

I mean, keep in mind this isn't even alpha yet. Tbh Tartarus was one of the least interesting parts of the first Hades before you win any runs or make much progress. Which this is basically the equivalent of atm.

@Borderlines Месяц назад

Im loving the whole premise tbh, i find Hecate very intriguing but I think the game needs a bit more buildup via a cinematic or some sort of cool exposition at the very start.
