14:37 Artemis repping the oldest sister anthem. Truer words have never been spoken 16:12 hehehe you’re welcome! Glad to be of relative use

48:39 Ah, you should have taken Soot Sprint. It turns Eris into a joke.

Yeah, Hera probably has the worst cast in the game, which is a shame because the peacock feather design it gets looks really cool. It's compatible with the Aspect of Pan, at least. It's also decent if you're using the Furies Arcana (bonus damage to enemies in the cast circle) Also just realized that Circe's theme is a happier version of Medea's theme, lol

Oop, hello Wicked ref. I see you. Also, Chaos unbound? Maybe Chaos at the Crossroads? Chaos at the hot springs, mayhaps? Ahh, wishful thinking.

Every time I see Hermes' symbol on a door I start chanting under my breath "Hermes, Hermes, Hermes" like somehow it'll influence the outcome Aww it's so cute how you can actually help Hecate with her incantations Do we know yet why Medea let's the creepy soul pylon right next to her be instead of destroying it? Does she think it makes a nice decoration Polyphemus still manages to be intensely creepy and very endearing at the same time, I think he's one of my fave new characters Good run c:

12:32 Hamstir to Master Chaos like: "I can show you the wooooorld" 24:18 might sound bad, but we'd need a bit of fury there. This world will go on without us, but where do we go without this world? 30:12 I think you already know that Jason, the man that cheated on her and insulted her after she gave up everything for him, had Hera's favour. (Though it's implied after the cheating he lost that) 38:25 Do you think he can't sleep because Hypnos' out of commission? 43:20 Hermes god of cockblocking. 46:54 OH SO YOU KNOW ALREADY? I like that you're doing your homework, Hamstir. Good job 50:03 You know what _I_ can do night, after night, after night? Sleeping. I could sleep even day, after day, after day! 52:17 two very straight friends, I'm sure! 52:27 I don't want you walking on fire either, Hamstir! Not many thoughts on this run. Everything went swimmingly. Is it time to try dying? Might be. Will you still be playing, in case new content comes out? Like- you might stop at some point, because realistically, there is nothing to do, but will you come back when new stuff drops? You are a #ChronosPause, Harry!!!

Meli (the og sailor moon xd) truly looked like godess summoning the skulls. Also I think that my toxic trait is thinking that Herc is hot and that I could fix him. Medea boons are just too strong she is imo the best of all the non god characters when it coes to boons (sorry Icarus). You got the perfect nuke-cast build it was honestly very funny to watch XD

Would feeding Toula make her attacks more effective? Who shouted "heads up" at you in one of the earlier rooms? Was it Polyphemus from a distance? I wonder who Demeter means when she says that "someone's already on the case" regarding the zombies? Heracles? Or someone else? "Gran-Gran"? Avatar?

#Chronopause #Chronopause #Chronopause #Chronopause

Makes sense that Circe feels comfortable at Oceanus. According to some versions, the Titan Oceanus is her grandpa.

Nice bug report. #ChronosPause

Oh boy, here we go! Haste Trial! Let's do this! I think the way they made it easier was by requiring you to go through less rooms to make it to Cerberus, thus making it faster to complete without needing to extend the amount of time you have. Just a theory though. Medea Trial, interesting that they give you the Hammer instead of the Fleece for it. As for Chaos on the surface, maybe you doing the chaos trials have allowed them to gain enough reality altering power to manifest on the surface. Or it's just for the Chaos Trial, idk. Also, YO APOLLO LEGENDARY LOOKS BROKEN! Huh. I expected Medea to have a stronger reaction against Hera, considering how she was screwed over by her, forcing her to fall in love with Jason and marry, but I suppose she is just being focused on the mission. Even if it means helping Hera. Huh. I could have sworn Heracles had something to say when you had a blessing of Hera, but maybe he just saw the Fan and was like "imma leave before she gives me another fucking Labor." Demeter not letting any plants grow in Ephyra is certainly much worse for the Mortals still living or stuck there than it is for any of the undead. You see Granny, this is why people are saying the Gods have Foresaken them. As for the person they have on the case, it's Heracles most likely. Icarus and Melinoe's friendship (and maybe more) is so utterly adorable and if I'm not allowed to romance the Winged Inventor in the final game, imma riot! Oof, two bugs in one sitting. Hera giving heroic to already heroic Boons, followed by Oil spills somehow stopping the Lunar Ray. Welp, we help the Hades II team however we can! 😁 Circe, you know that a Lie of Omission is still a Lie right? Conveniently not mentioning your history with Scylla's cacophony to someone having to face her on a regular basis is not good. WICKED REFERENCE! I'M GETTING SPOILED WITH THESE REFERENCES HAMSTIR! 😄 I can't wait for this Fear Run, or for the next Judgement Run, or for the next challenge. I'm just so excited in general! Moonlight Guide us and all!

12:30 The part I find the most interesting is that they were inspired to find a way to access the surface by Mel's incantation. 32:32 Huh, so apparently those side rooms can give you elements. 37:45 I'm guessing that it can be chosen because the bonus levels apply to all sacrifice boons you come across, not just the one that it guarantees (i.e. if you'd gotten offered Hestia's cast as a sacrifice boon, it would apply the +3 to it) 38:35 Get this guy some ZzzQuil. 44:45 Yeah, that definitely seems like an oversight. (I'm trying to figure out how the coding works to cause that interaction, maybe because the fire does damage it's considered an enemy by the code, thus Lunar Ray is trying to damage it?) 52:20 One Short Night, in the Rift of Thessaly. (I'm tentatively hopeful for the Wicked movies)

Hello

I like her we’re in the same boat holding a grudge

2:15 PINK CASPER OMG 10:02 Hey, H. This hey is for you only~. 10:41 I really believe she'd be a blast to hang out with and listen to Arctic Monkey and strum a guitar and sing off key and kiss- NOOOOOO 32:00 Yessssss Toula is stronger than Hecate!!! 40:24 It seems to be like Echo is supposed to be in the mourning fields. Where lovers mourn the dear ones they'll never see again. 50:49 wow, you _do_ always go to Master, huh? 1:02:12 hehe the death defiance from Chaos looks so good. 1:20:31 Typhon is not a titan, he is a very monstery monster. Oh boy. That was a close one. Ya sure you wanna try 32 fear already? I guess if you want to lose, then you might. You seem to be getting too good at this, maybe it's better if you do lose, in fact. The #ChronosPause compels you!!!!

12:56 lmaoo get his ass

I have never missed one of your Hades 2 videos 😊

Yooo this run was so good. I was on the edge of my seat during those last few minutes against Chronos I personally think challengue runs would be more interesting than high fear runs? Whatever you feel like tho, these vids are always entertaining c:

18:35 Yeah, for a Hades 1 themed run, it would probably be best to start with an Olympian keepsake to ensure that you start with an Olympian that was in the first game. 29:45 I mean, Hecate's got a point. It's easy to know where you stand with dogs, whereas cats are not super readable. 38:20 Yeah, even in the first game I found the troves to rarely be useful. 40:15 I mean, it seems to me that Oceanus and the Fields of Mourning may simply be outward fringes of the Underworld (seeing as Mel is able to survive in those regions without issue) so they may not be forced to return to Asphodel, or which ever region they used to reside in. 54:22 I wonder who or what that head originally belonged to. My best guess is possibly a Titan or, far less likely, maybe one of the Giants (children of Gaia and Tartarus who fought the gods after the Titans were defeated). 1:06:26 Yeah, I feel like we get spoiled with the Shades while traveling with Frinos. 1:22:55 Yeah, that's an item you can get in the Well, I think it's the one that increases your damage, though don't quote me on that. 1:23:35 I wouldn't say I'd necessarily prefer Judgement Runs specifically, but I do like the idea of occasionally doing more themed runs.

I saw a drawing with Hypnos as a boss fight the other day. I don’t know how that would work but it is something I think I would like.

Pink truly goes with everything, even with masochist Meli :D I loved this fun challenge run. Can we talk about how cute is Meli when she says "let's get them auntie" ? If i were Hestia my heart would have melted, that would litteraly be my favourite neiceforever. I understand that for marketing reasons the sirens can't be turned into sheep, Syclla and the sheep just doesn't have the same appeal XD To save those shadows without frinos you litteraly need to dance them the whole macarena xd

You caught a goldfish…in the gold-filled Styx. I see what the devs did there. Would an Arachne armor run be better on low fear? With my usual caveat that I don’t know anything about video game mechanics lol.

based hecate, dogs are the best

The giant sheep 😂😭😭😭 1:15:59 Now, I’m pretty sure that’s factually incorrect….But then again…. (yes i know he’s not being literal, I’m just trying to make a joke here)

OH! So Eon's original return function is now a hammer upgrade that can be on any Aspect. Yeah, I like that so much more now! Also... UNDERTALE REFERENCE?! Wow, you got literally every single Boon from Aphrodite in that Chaos Trial... hmmmmmm... Maybe that could be another challenge? Only one God Boon challenge? You can only get Boons from one God? Can only use their Keepsake for the whole run? That sound like it could be fun! OH JUDGEMENT RUNS SOUND SUPER FUN! 100% GRADE A APPROVAL FOR THESE! Also, we all hype for the Hades 1 run, all ready for it, got the white antler, got the Aspect of mom and- Hephestus: SUPRISE! So I guess the Hades 1 run will be for next time, and this can just be a first test and run out for the Judgement Run! That attempt to even get a single Hades 1 got and the game just saying "Nah, imma do my own thing" literally made me laugh out loud 🤣 of course since Master Chaos was in the first game, their Boons will also be allowed in the Hades 1 run. So, my thoughts on the first Judgement Run, *Clears Throat* Incredible. Also being an agent of Chaos fucking slaps! That's awesome! Don't worry about the Hades 1 run, there is always next time! 😁 In the Name of Hades!

#Chronospause #Chronopause #Chronospause (I said I would do it)

A shame there wasn't any reaction between Toula and Cerberus in Tartarus.

Reminder that the Aspect of Persephone scales of omega casts now, not attacks

1:34 I expected it to look more embryo-like, but this is alright as well. 6:36 GREAT QUESTION, MY DEAR RODENT FRIEND! Momus is a son of Nyx, and embodiment of ridicule, mockery and harsh criticism. Overall, a necessary "evil", if you ask me. The description of the weapon says that even Nyx had little patience for him, meaning he probably was/is of the irreverent sort, kinda like Eris. I wouldn't mind meeting him, seems a lot of fun! 8:44 Poseidon is one of those people that pose with a fish in their tinder PFP 14:15 Chaos is unpredictable and random, but they are also SUPER PISSES AT CHRONOS RN. I'd expect them to be very vindictive, given this is probably the first time someone ever tricked them. I just want Chronos to get clowned on. 31:37 Hey, H!~ (I like how everyone here is pointing out that the metal in the vial is Mercury. It's such a fun little nod. Supergiant did their homework on so many things, they make me fangirl.) 35:33 That _does_ describe Apollo pretty well, as I know him. 1:02:55 Homer, you troll... Eris is really trying to set Moros off in that one. It almost works. Almost. Moros knows better than to give into Eris' petty words, but ooohhhh baby Eris is one to talk about how she acts around Melinoë. She's cooked herself. Edit: #ChronosPause baby.

Been watching your hades 2 playthrus this whole time and you snuck in proper Vietnamese on me lol

Dude the keepsakes look so marketable, I'd want a keychain of many of them! But if I had to pick 3, my favs are Moon Beam, Beautiful Mirror, and Transcendent Embryo

Ahhh I'm so behind on vids 😔😔 thanks for still posting so often! I need to comment more often. Once I catch a break 😤

Lots of great shading and highlighting details added to existing character arts. I was hoping to see a more refined Hades art, alas. Also, did Charon finally get a non placeholder. I missed it if so.

10:25 HEEEEERMEEEEES~ 11:23 We definately are bad fortune in the myth. We are good here! 15:06 you'll always be my joke, Polyphemus! 28:15 So... you made it in less than half an hour? What's the rest of the video about?! 30:20 That's a lot of words for "I want to kiss you like the little lessbean I am", Eris. 31:52 fanboy. 33:15 THANATOS RUN??? :D 48:03 are you trying the challenge again? 1:02:39 Always go to the master. I am trying to make my friend understand that if you see the Master, you go to the Master. They sometimes say: "But I'm in Elysium, I'll die." I mean, they are right, but can you believe the audacity?! 1:25:26 why would the Satyrs hate the gods so much? My theory is: It has to do with Marsyas. We will see, however. 1:34:08 go get 'im! You can do it!!! 1:34:38 THIS BITCH- ZAGREUS ADORNED THE PLACE! IT WAS BEAUTIFUL JUST LIKE HIM! 1:39:55 See? Told ya you could do it. Next run is gonna have the new update? I really wanna see what you think of the keepsake sprites. There is some which are quite cute, I believe, but I want your thoughts. I really wanna know how they'll explain the satyrs being evil, given that satyrs are usually tied to Hermes and Dionysus in mythology. But I think they don't like gods for what Apollo did to Marsyas. #ChronosPause (tell me if you do not like us to remind you. I will stop.)

Poseidon casts looks like it'll be good with Momus on paper, but because it knocks enemies back it's actually quite a poor match. I think Zeus's cast would probably be a better option.

0:40 I just realized, Hermes' keepsake is the Metallic Droplet. The Metallic Droplet is probably a drop of the metal, Mercury, which happens to be Hermes' roman name. 1:15 And of course Circe's keepsake is a piggy. 3:25 From what I've heard, that casper is meant to track enemies, but it doesn't work against Skelly for some reason. 4:00 Yeah, the crit basically works opposite from how it did before. Originally it built crit chance with Omega moves and the crit could apply to any attack, now only your regular attack boosts the crit chance, but it applies to all Omega moves. (with the same drawback of resetting if you get hit) 5:35 I'M MARY POPPINS Y'ALL! 6:35 According to my quick google search "Momus was the god or personified spirit (daimon) of mockery, blame, ridicule, scorn, complaint and harsh criticism." 13:08 I think the number of encounters is determined by the rarity (though I'm not 100% sure on that) as I've seen both 2 and 3 encounters at different times. Thinking about it with that Chaos Bane/Boon, I wonder if the infusion that limits how much damage you can take (I think it's Demeter's infusion) could protect you from the damage if you don't clear the encounters fast enough. Also thinking about it. Imagine Apollo's Cast with the Aspect of Momus. 54:34 Honestly, I think that may have just been luck. I think the Duo Boon actually removed him from the god pool, leaving an opening for other gods (since the patch made it so that you can get 4 by default, instead of 3), note how Hestia only started appearing as a potential room reward after getting the duo boon. 59:39 Same here, I was like, did they change the move somehow? 1:00:30 Huh, you were able to cancel one of his instant death moves. 1:04:00 Does Eris not know the Fates were captured?

OH! i heard the small ghosts baa! They are sheep!!

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH EVERYBODY! The Keepsakes look so good! The Silken Sash looks like the thing Arachne is weaving in the background of her character art, which is so cute! With their new looks I have to say my favorite on aesthetics alone are: Metallic Droplet, Purest Hope, Blackened Fleece, Crystal Figurine (god I hope it's not a sailor she turned to crystal), the Silken Sash, the Experimental Hammer, and the Transcendant Embryo. I miss old Momus, the healing was actually really good. Not to say the new one is bad. It's really strong for Omega Focus builds with the right hammers... but I really really miss the healing from old Momus. I really love that they buffed Wands (and I already liked wands) and the change to Eos is very very good. I like it a LOT more than the return to sender gimmick. It didn't work with some of the Hammers you expected it to work with. Thanatos' aspect is more interesting now. Mortality is an interesting Buff, and works well with the faster attack speed. Aspect of Mel on the Axe rework is actually less interesting, just a flat mana and HP increase. Like it's good, don't get me wrong, but... just flat buffs aren't as interesting. And yeah, I still think Aspect of Persephone is the best skull but man... this feels like a Nerf. Especially when going into runs with low or no mana. Oof, that Chaos Boon was not good, losing a death Defiance that soon into a 20 Fear Run against Chronos. Yeesh. HERA ZEUS DUO BOON PLUS 8 ON BASIC ATTACK? Holy shit, now I really do wanna try that Zeus Hera Hephestus combo with the Boonless Duo I was thinking about. Homer seems to be running out of reasons for Melinoe to go back to her tent "My keys, oh well, better leave my frozen in time family behind. Return to shadow now." LOL I am liking this new Patch, and I'm very glad I've managed to convince you that you'll have to face Typhon on Olympus. It is one of the few creatures that ever gave the Gods of Olympus pause. Fates Protect and Guide you!

Momus still best staff of the game #Chronospause

0:10 KEEPSAKE ART YEAHHHHHHH!!! The Venus of Botticelli inspired handle on Aphrodite’s mirror! Circe’s statuette is a piggy! The liquid mercury vial! Nemesis’ apotropaic evil eye patch is styled after Chaos and Nyx’s eyes!!! (Purple and Gold respectively) These are all so GOOD!! But also design of the cloud bangle slaps so hard I kinda want one. Damn. That minimalist jewelry style is up my ally too. 3:56 ooooh, Mortality up to 13% because Death is irl major arcana 13 (maybe even in game? I haven’t played attention to that)……. Ok…..I see you, supergiant….. 35:30 To be precise: Apollo gave it to him as a gift after Hermes created the lyre for him as a “I’m sorry not sorry I stole your cattle here have a fancy new instrument to distract you from wanting to beat me up” gift. (No one tell Chellen, but it was made out of tortoise shell). Why do I feel like this awesome brotherly gift exchange happened under the glare of an irate Hera?

Moreover, Eris, Adikia, and Arke were expelled by Zeus from heaven for causing discord with the golden apple, wrongdoing, and siding with evil and the Titans. They were banished to Tartarus like Momus. Eris was born from the goddess Nyx (Night) and god Erebus (Darkness) through parthenogenesis (even though Eris was born from a Primordial, she is not one herself. Eris is the goddess of discord and strife. She drives the conflicts and disputes of both deities and humans. Though despised by the Olympians, they respected her power. Most famous for her role in the events leading up to the Trojan War. Eris was snubbed by the Olympians and so she dropped the golden Apple of Discord into the wedding party of Peleus and Thetis. She lives in the realm of Chaos is known as the goddess of chaos, who dwells within the deepest depths of Hades, Tartarus. Arke is a goddess of rainbow but not shine like her older twin sister Iris which is known as shadow of Iris. Arke is a messenger goddess who betrayed the Olympians during the Titanomachy by siding with the Titans. In fact, she was thrown into Tartarus by Zeus after ripping her wings off. Adikia is so ugly. Dike hits and kills Adikia with a mallet or hammer 🔨. Then Dike praises her father Zeus for banishing Adikia and sending her to the Tartarus Dungeon. Dike will ensure that injustice and wrongdoing will never exist.

Though her attributes are golden apple, hissing snake, burning torches, poniard, and African Blackwood, mortals DO NOT worship her. So Eris lives in Tartarus, Mansion of Night, Chaos with her parents, grandparents, and siblings like Nemesis, Thanatos, Hypnos, and many others. During the Trojan War, Eris never sided with Ares. She had just been summoned by Zeus to send a message to the Spartans just as her nephew Morpheus did.

All the Keepsakes are so beautiful, unique, and unusual.

The Witch's staff with the Aspect of Momus. 1:49 Momus is the God of Sarcasm, Mockery, Blasphemy, Blame, Satire, Ignorance, Stupidity, Poets, Writing like the Orphic Hymns, Treachery, Betrayal, and Disloyalty like prince Hans (Frozen). Momus was expelled by Zeus from heaven for ridiculing the deities and he was banished to Tartarus. Momus' opposite number was Eupheme (Goddess of Praise, Acclamation, and Shouts of Triumph).

Alright since it’s a meme already from now on I’m going to spam it more and more until you do it. #Chronospause #Chronospause (and I’ll add an extra one for each new run video).

Do you ever wonder what the various mooks think when this actual goddess, who's currently kicking said mooks' heads in, suddenly decides to take a moment to hack at a rock. The sheer disrespect

Shame you missed out on chanting with Hecate and the Witches there.

The reason Hera's so snippy and standoffish when she receives Nectar is because she thinks Mel is just trying to flatter her, she doesn't think the offering and the sentiments behind it are sincere.

They unwrinkeled my granny
