What do you all use to count your FPS? I am not seeing anything in-game. I was back on forth on whether to get PC or console (PS4 presently) but went with PC since I have a new laptop with a GTX2070. Running things on high looks to be in the 30 FPS to my eye but not sure exactly. Sorry, sortof a PC noob.

I'm not saying other responses are wrong, but Hades is correct.

So, did they leave in world tendency? I haven't heard it mentioned in any of the reviews. Such a bizarre and mysterious mechanic in the original.

@axel My first finish was run 32. If you read around the internet, most people beat it somewhere between run 30-40.

@crepe It takes 10 completions to see the "true ending" which is worth it just for the ending song (if you haven't spoiled it by listening to the OST). The game sortof continues open ended from there as there is plenty more character development and interactions to be had even after you have seen the true ending. Also, I will say that the first completion is the hardest. I found it got much much easier to run through and take down Hades subsequently on the standard difficulty levels. Once you see the true ending, its worth taking on the contracts to increase the challenge per your liking.

I have a few hours in to episode 1 and have to get back to it. Seems compelling so far. I notice they have another one on the horizon, Twin Mirror, I believe? I think its out next month. Presumably someone is also working on LiS3 as well. I hope Dont Nod doesn't overextend themselves the way Telltale did.

I bought it the day early access started. I have played it intermittently over the past year and have marveled at how it has developed. Now that version 1.0 is out, I'm diving back in. It's great. Definitely phenomenal gameplay and marriage of story telling, art design, music with a rogue-lite. If you are a fan of Supergiant's other games (Bastion, Transistor, Pyre) know that this one is the first to put gameplay first, story second which is fitting since its a rogue-lite. Personally, I prefer their other works slightly because its precisely the emphasis on story and music that makes them stand out but Hades is definitely one of the best games you will play this year either way.
