  • Literally every game by Supergiant. Most recent would be Hades 2, when I finally beat the 3rd boss and start slashing into the fourth area, the music was so hype I was smiling all the way through.
    A better pick may be Transistor though. It’s kind of a half action half strategy game, where you kind of pause to plan out and execute your next moves. During that pause phase, the music would turn into a muted version, and main character would hum to it in sync.

    Also, Journey and Abzu. They simply are experiences that should not be had without good headphones.


  • Hades 2 Early access! Got it as soon as it shadow dropped on Steam.

    Even though it’s in early access and the ending won’t be revealed until launch, there’s already so much content I’m having a blast playing it already.

    Just word of caution, the game obviously is still incomplete. There are unfinished artwork all around, navigating menus with a controller can be clunky occasionally, and imo the game balance really needs to be tuned. Hence early access for Supergiant to receive player feedback. With so much more game mechanic to choose from compared to the first game, I feel like the boon upgrades are spread a little too thin to boost enough base weapon damage to carry into later regions. Or maybe I’m just bad at the game idk haha.

    If you want the complete experience from start to finish, I would recommend you wait, and it’s okay to do so.
    But, if you can live with the downsides of early access, and don’t mind spoiling yourself before launch, Hades 2 is a good time now. I’d encourage anyone who are playing it now to actively give feedback to make this the best game on launch!
