If this guy hadn't said this I'd have assumed it was just weird stylised color choices, since all of those characters have white features
I liked Hades, not buying any more of their games now though
That's pretty much what I was thinking as well prior to this. I sure as hell regret giving them my money. This and that weird homosexualry with Thanatos has definitely played a big role in why I went back to predominantly pirating games.
Athena has white features and an unnaturally dark shade for her skin. She does not look Black at all. It's reasonable to assume it's a stylistic decision until confronted with evidence of the designer's own words.
Is there a single American game journalist on this planet who isn't 100% ideologically subverted? Every time they talk about anything this shit comes out
Not owned by a major publisher, so they typically can't afford a lot of expensive advertising. I recall the first Hades actually had some nice trailers though.
I mean we already know hades 2 is going to keep the god awful gameplay of the first with no improvements. Not like you need 90 people to write up dialogue lines for a bunch of side characters when you give them +relationship items like this is an otome game
There's something about the female faces in Hades that doesn't completely click for me.
I really wanted to get hades once it was out of the epic store but didn't because of Athena and manface-aphrodite. Shame really, I just want to play good vidya games but I won't support them when they are so blatant. I'm not a racist, I do not mind the black characters, nor homophobic, or transphobic. I just hate ugly people and thieves. Vote with your wallets, thats all you can do.
>mythology belongs to all humans, we all get to share in it
So white Indian and Aztec gods would be completely fine? And white Wakandans too. I don't know any African gods and they worship Wakanda so that's the example I'm using
Unnaturally white, not caucasoid white.
But I'm not an austere religion scholar so if there's something about her lore I don't know, feel free to inform.
No news since the reveal. Time they originally gave is Q2 2024 so 1-5 months
Unless they meant fiscal quarters in which case 1 month. Don't count on that though
Are people excited for this? The first Hades had no depth and little to no progression. I beat 32 Heat so early that it seemed to break the storyline as well.
It was a fun action roguelike that had good story progression and a lot of unique dialogue to reward your progress (or lack of progress)
I liked it a lot
Don't feel the need to play the second one though, the woke elements in the first were already offputting
they'll be fine, Tim will pay for a year of exclusivity and nobody will even know Hades 2 is out. Actually it might already be on the Epic Games store and nobody even knows about it.
Raceswapping is political, it's always done by political people, and when a movie actor has whiter skin than the character then political people complain about "colorism"
We have art portraying them from the period they were actively worshipped in. They're clearly supposed to look greek.
so you are saying that egyptians had animal heads in the past?
But by your own logic if they made egypt-themed hades and Horus was just a random nig instead of having a hawk head you'd have no room to complain because "he is THE god not just egyptians' god and that's just how they perceived him".
Artificially including diversity and other progressive elements with the intention of 'normalizing' it is propaganda, since the intended goal is the modification of thinking and belief.
I do not have a quote of them saying their intent was normalization but that is the openly stated goal of many a progressive creator, and for them to deliberately diversify traditionally mediterranean gods suggests this to be the case.
It may have just been a couple of people on the team pushing for it and the rest going along with it, but there was a social outcome in mind. There always is.
>using the less offensive chud word to fit in >calling anons "homosexuals on Ganker", outing himself as a tourist >classic subversive vermin tactic of projecting "reee you don't play games, I do" >reddit spacing
You do not fit in, you stick out like a sore thumb, have a nice day. If you're going to complain about culture war brainrot, then maybe your ilk shouldn't have put said culture war brainrot in the game in the first place.
The average Ganker user LITERALLY does not care about video games. They only want things to be angry about, make fun of, or some combination of the two. The actual quality of the game, good or bad, does not matter as the majority of Ganker will simply take the opposite of whatever the majority opinion is.
>The average Ganker user LITERALLY does not care about video games. They only want things to be angry about
Yeah, people regularly get angry about things they don't care about.
disingenuous, fake post >majority of Ganker will simply take the opposite of whatever the majority opinion is
false
these minorities are "oppressed" by the majorities, surely, Ganker would instead support them, no?
you do realize that no one likes troons and blacks, not even troons and blacks?
>you're missing the point, the entire premise of this thread is wrong >supergiant isn't firing anyone, yet all of you umped on it without even checking
No one cares dude, we're discussing Supergiant now
no one cares it literally doesnt matter
OP could have said the supergiant studio exploded into the sun
no one would have checked, it would have become reality in anons minds and the thread would have reached bump limit with seethe anyway
I awlays get Supermassive and Supergiant mixed up when readings news headlines. Supermassive should frick off and die already so I don't have to keep rereading things.
The game crash is coming
>yfw nothing changes and indies are still primarily the main videogames that get attention on Ganker
What's wrong, weren't they africanizing Greek gods hard enough? Larry not sending loyalty bux?
Dysfunctional is definitely something that Blacks are, in all aspects of life and biology.
If this guy hadn't said this I'd have assumed it was just weird stylised color choices, since all of those characters have white features
I liked Hades, not buying any more of their games now though
Same, I just thought they were some really bronzed skin, or how in anime you have pink and green hair to show different shades of black.
That's pretty much what I was thinking as well prior to this. I sure as hell regret giving them my money. This and that weird homosexualry with Thanatos has definitely played a big role in why I went back to predominantly pirating games.
athena kykes and massa chaos are 100% Black folk, you guys must have been coping hard
Athena has white features and an unnaturally dark shade for her skin. She does not look Black at all. It's reasonable to assume it's a stylistic decision until confronted with evidence of the designer's own words.
'They're not the gods of greece, they're THE gods. Period' is actually a take I like.
theyre not Black folk, theyre THE Black folk.
>that "logic"
Mental gymnastics, wtf.
>I want to tell story about dysfunctional family
>immediately thinks of Black folk
Americans are a plague
Is there a single American game journalist on this planet who isn't 100% ideologically subverted? Every time they talk about anything this shit comes out
its always the same shit with these parasites
>just because they're greek gods that doesn't make them greek
big think right there
Supermassive and Supergiant are two different companies
Hades is made by Supergiant
Supermassive made Until Dawn
the absolute state of Ganker
>indie game dev lay off 90 workers
What is even the measure of indie games nowadays?
Not owned by a major publisher, so they typically can't afford a lot of expensive advertising. I recall the first Hades actually had some nice trailers though.
Good.
Hades was full of atrocious, forced comic-book-movie-tier writing.
Self published. As it's always been
It is not. Supergiant isn't Hades dev.
Supergiant is literally Hades dev. Supermassive is not Hades game dev.
I mean we already know hades 2 is going to keep the god awful gameplay of the first with no improvements. Not like you need 90 people to write up dialogue lines for a bunch of side characters when you give them +relationship items like this is an otome game
good.
>california based studio
>greek myth themed
gay galore holy shit

If the girls were cute, and bisexual, I would have bought it (on any DRM-free store). I'm a sucker for bi4bi pairings.
honestly wouldn't it be incredibly easy to mod the game? just change some pics
Hades is Supergiant you dummy
>mythology belongs to all humans, we all get to share in it
So white Indian and Aztec gods would be completely fine? And white Wakandans too. I don't know any African gods and they worship Wakanda so that's the example I'm using
my only problem with hades wokeness was that they wouldnt let me frick dusa
well yeah if they're the only gods in the setting it'd make sense for them to represent the whole setting
Everybody should at least known Anansi, the trickster spider god.
I didn't before now. Thanks.
Redpill me on Anansi. Why should I know about this god?
Shiva is literally white
Unnaturally white, not caucasoid white.
But I'm not an austere religion scholar so if there's something about her lore I don't know, feel free to inform.
religious*
Supermassive doesn't make Hades, dipshit
Guys. I don't think they're going to be able to finish Hades 2 with a negative employee count.
I didn't even realize she had heterochromia
She and Zag do due to their parentage
me neither, the only thing in the trailer i could focus on were her bare feet
>female protagonist
Nothing wrong with that if she's cute
>What are Beyond Good and Evil, Mirrors Edge, all the fricking Tomb Raider games, Perfect Dark...
You can't even do a single chin up dude YOU are the female protagonist
The first game is fine even if it's filled with homos and other degeneracy.
Any news on Hades 2? Have we gotten an EA date yet?
No news since the reveal. Time they originally gave is Q2 2024 so 1-5 months
Unless they meant fiscal quarters in which case 1 month. Don't count on that though
Bet. I never even saw a time period. Ty
Maybe they should cancel it entirely and close the studio if all they are going to release now is libtroony slop
its coming
Supermassive?
More like Sortabig
Are people excited for this? The first Hades had no depth and little to no progression. I beat 32 Heat so early that it seemed to break the storyline as well.

Are you all trolling or moronic?
OP is a homosexual.
This is now a Supergiant Games thread until it dies.
Also,
>find a flaw
Bastion > Transistor > Hades >>>>> Pyre
pyre was great, homosexual
I need to replay Bastion. I remember loving it but only played it once.
they'll be fine, Tim will pay for a year of exclusivity and nobody will even know Hades 2 is out. Actually it might already be on the Epic Games store and nobody even knows about it.
lol you have like 4 dev studios in that lay off yet Black folk will tell you it's an indie game
OP is a supermassive homosexual.
Thank you Carlos
>Supermassive
They don't make hades..
To the people who have played Hades: Is Megaera bi?
no
>homosexuals on Ganker will seethe and celebrate the studio that made one of the best roguelikes ever getting smashed because of culture war brainrot
It's becoming increasingly clear none of you play games.
>divisive politics divide people
Woah
can you show me on the doll where the "divisive politics and propaganda" are in the game
if you say "there's a character with brown skin" you automatically concede and lose
Raceswapping is political, it's always done by political people, and when a movie actor has whiter skin than the character then political people complain about "colorism"
>Raceswapping
The gods never had a race to begin with, they aren't real.
People who made them had.
so you are saying that egyptians had animal heads in the past?
yes they all had monkey heads
goddamn you people are fragile
I'm saying that your mother had intercourse with animal in the past.
Even your cherrypicked example proves you wrong because pharaohs believed to be descendants of the gods
So you are saying Ancient Greeks worshipped Black folk?
We all know this conversation would be different if someone whitewashed african gods
We have art portraying them from the period they were actively worshipped in. They're clearly supposed to look greek.
But by your own logic if they made egypt-themed hades and Horus was just a random nig instead of having a hawk head you'd have no room to complain because "he is THE god not just egyptians' god and that's just how they perceived him".

It may have just been a couple of people on the team pushing for it and the rest going along with it, but there was a social outcome in mind. There always is.
Maybe they should just make good games instead of making good games with propaganda in them
Anon, nothing is happening. This is a bait thread.
>getting smashed
They employee 350 people to make ONE fricking game. They'll be fine.
They, like every other tech / video game company, over-hired during the pandemic. The layoffs in the last year have all been trimming the fat.

the irony in this post is palpable
sorry, meant for
the levels of irony of this post are going off charts
verification not required
frick, meant for this
>Ganker is one person
>redditspacing
>rage bait
A tale as old as time. You need to go back.
actually played the game here. story bored me to fricking tears and the end game can suck a fricking massive health bar until it chokes and dies.
There's something about the female faces in Hades that doesn't completely click for me.
Yeah that's a man.
If only, women with wieners are the apex of attractiveness.
out of 10!
Your mom is unattractive. Would yoiu call her a man?
You fapped to a man, don't get mad at me and me mom for your blindness.
Supermassive?
The Hades devs are Supergiant
Their only good game was Bastion. They deserve to go out of business for all this roguelite slop.
Had me worried there for me a moment you cheeky frick.
am i out of the bit or is everyone else moronic?
SUPERMASSIVE is firing people, not SUPERGIANT
The average Ganker user LITERALLY does not care about video games. They only want things to be angry about, make fun of, or some combination of the two. The actual quality of the game, good or bad, does not matter as the majority of Ganker will simply take the opposite of whatever the majority opinion is.
And yet you are still here

you're missing the point, the entire premise of this thread is wrong
supergiant isn't firing anyone, yet all of you umped on it without even checking
>you're missing the point, the entire premise of this thread is wrong
>supergiant isn't firing anyone, yet all of you umped on it without even checking
No one cares dude, we're discussing Supergiant now
yes, thats the point
you guys just want to rage at things you don't even like or care about
I'm sorry your autism doesn't let you talk about Supergiant Games because OP made a dumb mistake, but we can do it just fine
>mistake
moron, bot or agent of evil
no one cares it literally doesnt matter
OP could have said the supergiant studio exploded into the sun
no one would have checked, it would have become reality in anons minds and the thread would have reached bump limit with seethe anyway
The shield is so much fun holy shit
I awlays get Supermassive and Supergiant mixed up when readings news headlines. Supermassive should frick off and die already so I don't have to keep rereading things.
Hades was mid beyond belief.
I didn't even know they had that many workers
