The game has gone a bit woke, my guess is that the employees responsible sucked the passion out of the project, at least for some of the voice actors. Not much to go off of course.

⁠​⁠@@pizzaperson9744 Aw yes, Hades, the least woke video game.

@@pizzaperson9744 define woke for us, please

@@humanpotato17 the term work is cringe but I can help you.. I think they're referring to it being woke because of how most characters in gameplay so far are all women and queer characters and of color (Greek gods are clearly white because greece is a predominantly white place)

It’s forced woke garbage. The reason I’m not buying this game.

@@SuperYtc1your embarrassing

@@codybutitsallluck6581 nah, he's right and it's obvious.

it's not. several of the male characters don't appear until after multiple runs.

Not really? Apollo, Hermes, Odysseus, Schelemeus, Poseidon, Charon, Zeus, Moros, and Hephaestus are all dudes.

bro are you serious? are you unironically saying all of this nonsense? the gameplay is slower by design, its actually really fuckin cool. zagreus was a reckless young man who was essentially throwing a big temper tantrum wanting to go to the surface (im not saying this in a bad way, zagreus is my favorite character). He relied on brute force and speed to mow through his enemies. His younger sister is not like him, she is trained as a Witch, and has spent her whole life preparing for a specific mission: Kill Time. She's not reckless and rageful like Zagreus, she is slow and methodical. Using tactics and magick to take down her opponents, and the gameplay reflects that. I'm glad they designed a unique fighting style while still keeping the barebones of the first game. If I want to play that Zagreus fighting style, I can go back to Hades 1. Both games are incredible.
