It's a Switch 2 game so many are actively ignoring it.
Funny that we have so many PC people here and there is not an OT though, but one big reason is that people don't want to give the Switch a huge win, which this is. It also did a long period of early access so maybe it is old news to some PC folks, though 1.0 should bring them back.
Maybe there is an OT and I just haven't seen it.
Going to search right now. Has good steam metadata so nothing shocking here:

It isn't imho. Other roguelites and roguelikes are mediocre and don't give you enough incentives or upgrades. Some of them do, but I would argue that is partly because of Hades.I'll never understand why hades 1 was so well reviewed, it seems pretty bang average
Hades has good story and is just very well done. It's like saying Expedition 33 is a bang average jrpg. What rogueslites you been playing that Hades is the average?

does it have cross save across platforms? So I can buy Switch 2 and Steam?

idk why people claiming this is GOTY when its been in a playable state for over a year now, We all know DK is the only fresh new title that came out this year that had fun gameplay. everything else has just been hype by indie cucks.

I'm like you, I gave the first one a shot, played a few enjoyable runs, then remembered that no, definitely no, I don't like rogue-likes and never will.
What's more fresh and new than E33. Didn't you know they invented a whole new genre and a whole new fresh battle system that's totally never been done before ever?
It's not a genre a play massively but I far far preferred both returnal and rogue legacy. Edit and Prey: moonshot, oh and death loop. All were much more enjoyable.

Waiting for a console release but I'm curious if the 1.0 of Hades II has just as much content as the first Hades had when it launched on console? Hades was my GOTY but that's because the game was complete & included a extended epilogue. Not the kind if game I'd want to wait for updates for if they plan on updating the games story etc past 1.0.

Yea what a huge L for PC gamers, who have had access to Hades 2 for 1.5 years.

Excited to play, last time I played was the Olympus update. I didn't play it that much either, most of my time was before it.
New file vs old file?
Probably going to try a new. But I saw that you can transfer saves from Steam so I'll probably check out my old file to.
Halloween timing is fun!

It's been a pretty decent year for rogue-lites.
The Rogue Prince of Persia came out of Early Access this year too, and I'd put it in my top 10 games this year. Some of the best feeling traversal in the genre, and I can see in the combat it comes from people who worked on Dead Cells.
Shape of Dreams, Abyssus and Witchfire (still in early access) are other good offerings to play this year.

Hades 1 was pretty great, so I got this today on Switch 2 and put a couple hours in. So far? Hades 2 is also pretty great. It's a slight refinement on the original in most respects, and it's doing enough different to not feel like a rehash. I am finding the Mel/Hecate dynamic to be not quite as compelling as Zag/Hades, though to be fair it's still quite early.

I wish I was good at OT. It's a shame a true contender for game of the year has no OT.

So I played for a couple of hours this evening.
God damn is it impressive. I didn't think I'd go in and like the protagonist change, but I really like her. The devs absolutely nailed the early narrative and gameplay. The voice acting and writing are industry leading. I played with headphones and it makes a huge difference. I can easily see this becoming my GotY.

Wait wait wait. I can go buy NS2 and pick up my stream progress?
Has anyone tested this?
If so I'll double dip tomorrow. That's an amazing feature if true.

Someone be a hero and make an OT for this game. It really deserves it.
This will probably end up being higher for me than Silksong, and I absolutely loved Silksong.

I thought the same and i still prefer zagreus dashes but you get used after a while.
In theory, the invicibility during the run is more op than zagreus dodges if you know how to use it.
