I'd say give it a shot. If it's not for you, then you know to never be tempted by a roguelike again.
Not when Expedition 33 exists.
You guys have got to stop this mentality of that game being above a challenge. It's not. It's a great game, but not entitled to an automatic victory. I'll likely win, but give some other games a chance. That way, if something else does win, you guys won't fall into some weird depression if that happens.
I really like this game but the hyperbolic surrounding it is fucking crazy.
I beat E33. Yeah, Hades II most definitely id as good, if not better than E33.
The Hades games hit the sweet spot of appealing to a wide audience perfectly. They have skill elements but also you can just grind and make progress.
Well E33 is a new IP and is a fresh take on RPG's while Silksong and Hades 2 (while both good) are still more of the same. E33 wins easily. The former two may be too hard for the casual crowd and many voters for GOTY
Only a few of us bother to make OTs.
There's that entitled sentiment again, but as with the game, it comes with flaws. "but Mon ami! We are French and so hip and contemporary and stylish!" is nothing new, and in fact as old as entertainment. The QTE events aren't new, the turn-based dodges/parries aren't new. The game play loop gets old and repetitive, the characters and story are cliche, bordering on idiotic not magical or mystical.
