Hades Is the Greatest Roguelike Game of 2020
Hades Part 1: I guess it's a 2019 game if you count early access. If you enjoy any of DemonCrawl, Slay the Spire, or Enter the Gungeon, you'll love this. Hades is the only game I've played off-stream in the past two months, and that's saying a lot since it's not a puzzle game.

Hades is a roguelike dungeon crawler where you role play Zagreus, the son of Hades, to escape the underworld. Use several type of weapons and hundreds of upgrades to grow more powerful to face four floors of difficult action and boss fights. Can the Greek gods lead you to victory?

I hope this game hasn't been played out, because I've LOVED playing it so far! I also think I undersold the strategy/decision making aspect of this game. It wouldn't be a rougelike game without strategy. Aliensrock Archive Channel: fistart.info/to/ZAEMgC-droNbjdknkUMdJg.html Check it out, there's a LOT of content you may have missed, including Celeste, DemonCrawl, and Fall Guys with ISAB
Roguelikes are turnbased.
you're only bad at dodging that at the end because you are to greedy when it comes to getting damage in. First priority is always dodging, then just get the damage in you can, you're gonna win eventually.
most of the entire Hades community would recommend controller. Also, heads-up: epilogue takes 150+ wins to reach.
Yo get the shield as soon as possible it is the best weapon in my oppinion

Cool that Zagreus is somehow able to break the fourth wall and talk to the narrator.
Hades is a REALLY good game. REALLY good.
I got this game on the 21st because of this videos and am already at 14 clears in 40 attempts. Absolutely LOVE this game and would love to see more here or on archive channel
Please upload some more edited content of this game Tyler or maybe I should ask the new editor BenBenRanger!
The scariest part about this video was the outro music.
Why does this seem so similar to Hyper Light Drifter?
Everyone: this game looks pretty cool Spelunky fans: >:(
Please do more of this
PLAY RISK OF RAIN TWO ITS SO GOOD
hey I noticed some websites describe the game Kumu's Adventure as roguelike, was wondering if you'd have any idea why? And what exactly could suggest that?
Absolutely adore gungeon, coming close to 1000 hours of it, might look into this hades game :P
:O even though they're the dog of hell they're still a good doggie!
A great roguelite you should try is scourgebringer. The full release was today, and it is just amazing.
You should play risk of rain 2, great rouge lite and is pretty cheap
Is it just me or does it sound like the choir bit of gangstas paradise is playing in the boss music?
Hades is the best PLEASE PLAY MORE
Binding of Isaac goal: get to hell Hades goal: get out of hell I'm pretty sure hades is definitely a sequel
I think i'm missing something, what did he mean when he said "falling in pits in slay the spire" isn't that a card based game or am i missing a joke or- i'm just confused
@You From The Future Yeah I thought about that but forgot to edit, I thought maybe he just made a mistake since the game does take quite some focus it seems
I think he meant enter the guneon not slay the spire but it might've been a joke.
Ho ho. Might i say that risk of rain 2 is the greatest roguelike game?
But there is Noita 1.0...
Risk of rain 2 technically launched this year so I’m not sure if I can agree with the title but this game is definitely up there. Great game with great character writing and gameplay.
dog c:
Where can I suggest games, isn't it a chat reward? Try dicey dungeons if you take them.
*Noita is the Greatest Roguelike Game of 2020
I’m really sad Kerbal space program just stopped, and Tyler I hope you know I at least really enjoy shapes.io!
You should try risk of rain 2
Ohhh shit he's playing hades! Nice!
YYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS PLEASE PUT THIS ON THE MAIN CHANNEL THIS GAME LOOKS SICK
I was hoping you might play this but I didn't think it would actually happen!
Ive been playing gungeon but ill check this out at some point!
One thing: Get a controller for action games! While the point of roguelites and roguelikes are to become better over time, which makes backseat gaming a bit moot, there is one thing that massively improves the way an action game like Hades feels, which is playing with a controller as it's intended. The reason you feel like you are bad at dodging is because you can only dodge in the direction of the WASD keys. With a controller dodging feels MUCH better, and becomes second nature. Since the game is heavily designed around dodging and weaving attacks, it is very important to be good at dodging to feel powerful at the later levels. The new Xbox Series controller is probably the best bet, and easiest to get going on PC, but the Playstation controllers are decent now too.
amazing
I have played Hades for the past month and I have done 58 escape attempts out of which 7 were successful. Btw deflect doesn't make you destroy the projectiles but literally deflects them back at the caster. You can destroy projectiles even with normal attacks. The sword special is pretty good for that bcs it destroys all the projectiles around you. Gl in your future runs
that opening looks like helltaker
i really enjoyed this and hope you will make more videos of this game , since streams are inconvenient (europe).
How does Minecraft Dungeons stack up to other roguelikes?
DEFINITELY make this a series
who gave mc dungeons better graphics
this game has a bangin soundtrack
Makes me want to watch more DemonCrawl...
MORE!!
pretty cool game i hope others agree too
"gjngeon but melee based" _did you mean: _*_Bullet Boi_*
Man you had really good rng with the bow. I would have taken zues and the food in the shop. There's a tier three upgrade you were eligible for that gives you 4-chain lightning effects. And the bow's special is pretty week until you put a boon on top of it.
Hell yeah im gonna love it. I don't watch a lot of twitch streams so this is welcome :)
more pls
For anyone curious about the basic effects of different gods’ boons: Zeus: lightning Poseidon: knock back Dionysus: Hangover (poison) Ares: doom (delayed damage) Athena: deflect Aphrodite: weak Artemis: crit Demeter: chill/slow Hermes: speed (attack speed, movement speed, extra dashes, etc.) Chaos: temp debuff that turns into large buff after a few rooms
Ah yeah baby buy that crutch to get past the first boss, you really need death defiance for it
it's really exciting to see Hades get the attention it deserves
Tartarus is not part of the underworld. Or at the very least not a part of the domain of Hades.
I would recommend turning auto aim / aim assist off in the options
my sis plays it im too poor to get it :(
Greek anime... Thanks, I hate it.
I was thinking a lot what you will post today, cuz you beat monster expedition, and im surprised in good way :D
noita
Of you say this is the best... well then you have never played risk of rain 2
I would to see a series of hades on youtube
Had no idea Tyler played EtG! Would love to see it pop up on the archive
So escaping the under world being a mass of destruction basically God of War but mixed with diablo
PLAY DEAD CELLS TOO
Get the shield asap its the best weapon in my oppinion
ever played risk of rain 1/2? it's a pretty dope.
this is cool it is nice to have this so pls upload more of this it was very enjoyable
Woo more aliensrock content.
Ngl I probably won’t watch this as it looks like Diablo so meh
this isn't the real aliensrock if this isn't a puzzle game
def do more
*sees title* hah you clearly haven't heard of Risk of Rain 2
you should definitely try out Noita, its the most interesting roguelike I've played in a long time. Also has a sort of puzzle element with the sheer amount of shenanigans you can come up with using its wandcrafting system.
This game reminds me of dead cells if it was top down as opposed to side scrolling. Also side note, dead cells is one the best rougelikes.
Did you know, a possible translation of Cerberus is "Spotted", so the dork Hades named his three-headed demon dog Spot.
3:03 This was the first time i heard about this game
I'm a huge fan of all of Supergiant Games' games (even Pyre), and I'm really glad to see their latest release getting some widespread appeal. One thing I will say is that it's much easier to play with a controller, it will mostly solve your issue of missing shots that look like they hit. The aim assist is generally pretty good at hitting what you want.
I like this game, but I probably like Risk of Rain 2 more.
I like it.
more pls ^^ ;)
I didn't know you played this game, I'm excited to see it :)
Dude, pop this shit on FIstart. It’s fucking amazeballs
More please
I mean spelunky 2 is out so...you're wrong, but this does look sweet!
Truly, there is no escape from Hades' grasp. Even aliensrock is playing it :)
Will he play among us? Ever?
Awesome but not picking up divine dash kind of hurt my soul to be honest.
hades pog
Not a roguelike
If you like rouge likes, might I recommend Dead Cells? It does get extremely difficult late game, though... so be warned
noita
Ackshually its a roguelite
Oh shit, I love Hades. Have been playing it since its beta release in December 2018 and this is the best rogue-like I've ever played. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did
Tip put the facecam top r sinds the cam wont block any thing
Nice
Hades is a roguelite. Notice the t. The difference in the two genres is that in roguelites you power yourself up inbetween runs, so that you don't actually start from 0 each time. Slay the Spire and Gungeon are roguelikes. K. You gain no power after you die, and every run you start from the same state.
I would recommend using a controller for this game, I am a keyboard player myself, but for some games using a controller is way easier, the aiming of certain abilities in this game is really bad with mouse and keyboard, also the keybinds are super bad! There is a little learning curve with controller but I think it's worth it for this game! I hope to see more of this here since Hades is a super fun game and I love to see people explore it and play it! Also, love your videos man, you always got such a positive outlook on everything and it's refreshing to see, also you play all the games I love so that helps
why would you give up Divine Dash? It's one of the best upgrades!
Also, isn't this technically a rogue-lite?
More please
Everyone keep liking enjoying these videos so we get more content!
Pesoanlly Risk of Rain 2 will always be my favourite for 2020... But this looks pretty cool.
