This motive could surface in the form of a rumour as it is debated who Zagreus’ parents are, with some scholars claiming his father is Zeus, and I think this would be enough to garner the wrath of Hera. Hera could work in a similar way to how Chaos’ boons operate but leaning more towards curses or hindering Zagreus’ escape attempts, keeping things more in line with her brand of revenge. Her function as a boon giving character is what makes Hera difficult to place within the game, similarly to the missing goddess of the hearth, Hestia, who previously brandished Exagryph. Hera is often depicted as vengeful and hostile, although this is not always without reason seeing as her husband is the ever unfaithful Zeus and limitations dictate that she cannot punish him directly. As such, she rules over marriage, childbirth and family, meaning that I think she would have a thing or two to say about Hades and Persephone’s union. While Hera is the wife (and sister) of Zeus and the former wielder of Coronacht, one of Zagreus’ Infernal Arms, she is most notably the goddess of women. Probably the god that I would consider to be the most glaringly absent from Hades, especially when you consider her high status. I have signalled this for anyone who wants to avoid important plot points.
#Hades dlc supergiant free#
Although there are plenty of characters that Zagreus can interact with during and between his escape attempts, I found myself wondering either where other figures from Greek mythology are during this story or, if they were to appear, how their presence would affect the game.Ĭaution: I’ve kept things as spoiler free as possible but there is one god that I discuss where I talk about the true ending. I know that DLC for Hades is unlikely, but I can’t help but think about the things that I would love for them to include in potential updates. Supergiant have spoiled players with a huge amount of content, but I know I’m not alone when I say that I still want more. Speaking of which, thanks to whoever it was at Supergiant Games who wrote Patroclus’ codex entry. While escape isn’t necessarily my primary goal anymore, it feels great to complete a run with added difficulty from the Pact of Punishment and I’m still progressing story points with many of the characters. Since my previous post, I’ve now made it to the true ending and I have to say that even the post-credits content is still very fun. There’s an addictive quality that overcomes me after every death or escape and I just find myself wanting to spend more time in the Underworld, even if Zagreus doesn’t. I’ve been pretty obsessed with Hades since I started playing it.
