  Started playing Hades 1 just to test how much linux gaming improved.

  Holy hell this game is good. I have terribe reaction time but I pick the spear and keep decent distance.

  Somewhat felt repeating and grindy at times but itntroduced new characters right after soit was worth it.

    Try enabling Deus Ex. You take less damage every time you die

    My opinion on that for myself is that it is better to watch a video guide on a boss to be able to enjoy an amazing game rather than abandon it completely.

      True, but also I could only beat the last boss with the shield weapon for a very long time.

  I couldn’t defeat a single level in Hades I. Am I just bad at games? I want to play this and stuff like Elden Ring

    I was like you. My reflexes suck. I turned on god mode which makes the game slightly easier the more you die. Also tried to dodge more than to attack, and got so much better!

    Also watched some build guides, that definitely helped in the long run!

    How long did you play? You get stronger the more you die, so it should slowly get easier to beat the first stage.

      About 4 hours I guess?

    I’m pretty bad at games like this. Hades 2 is immensely better IMO

  Excellent game and it runs great on the deck. I’ve put in like 50 hours since getting mine a month ago.
