I picked up Hades II today on Steam for the 1.0 release. I'm pretty excited about it, and enjoying it so far. It's the inagural game for my friend group's new gaming 'book club', where we'll play a game for a month-ish and then reconvene and chat about it.
If you have any questions about my thoughts on the original or how I'm enjoying the new game please feel free to ask, but keep this spoiler-free until market close if you can :)
You can read my thoughts about over 100 other games on my Steam page already. https://steamcommunity.com/id/ShynyMagikarp/ I have posted lots of reviews.
Sadly I've never posted a full review of Hades, but my playtime may speak for itself.
Anyway, happy gaming!
Update 2025-10-16 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The market will resolve in one month as stated in the title, with no extension to the close/resolution date.
At the time of resolution, the creator:
Has beaten the assumed final boss once (two days before the comment)
Has not beaten it multiple times to get full main story resolution
Has not gotten close to full upgrades/powerups compared to their Hades playthrough
This incomplete progress will impact the resolution of the market.

3.00@traders Important update/clarification for this market. I have not made as much progress on the game as I had hoped in a month. Partially because of time constraints, but also because i need to 'git gud' i think.
but since the question in the title specifically asks 'in one month', I will not be extending the close date/resolution date.
more detail: i beat the 'final boss' (or what i assume to be the final boss) for the first time two days ago, but just like the first game, it seems like i need to beat it several times in order to get full 'main' story resolution, and I haven't gotten near as close to full upgrades/powerups as I had when I put down Hades.
This will have an impact for the resolution of this matket no doubt, although not for my final opinions on the game of course.
@sointex holy shit dude wild that THIS market is how i find out the game is in full release. Gonna have to get it myself
@sointex its pretty sweet so far dude. although hard to remember how difficult OG hades was before i got all the upgrades and shit, but im kinda getting my butt kicked!
