I wish there were more fics of Hades and Zagreus trying to mend their relationship.

Key word is TRYING! They are gonna fuck up, they are gonna ruin their progress once in a while, they are gonna cringe as they experience the uncomfortable conversations they have to have in order to ‘heal’ and understand one another.

I dont want them to be perfect, that is IMPOSSIBLE, but i do want to see them make an effort to be more than just ‘neutral’ with eachother

I made some Stardew Valley style sprites for Hades characters! It was a lotta fun experimenting with a new style but damn it was hard (ESPECIALLY Nyx)

There are some I might touch up on later but I like how they turned out, Dusa’s gotta be my fav sprite I made.

Hades: *crying, face golden from all the crying, multiple bottles of ambrosia on his desk*

Zagreus: …*mouth agape*…What’s…wrong…father?

Hades: *sniffling* POSEIDON AND ZEUS ARE MY BROTHERS! *more tear-shedding*

Zagreus: …Wow.

Hades: WHY?! WHY DID I REMEMBER THAT?

Zagreus: *whispering and looking at the bottles* So this is why you banned the stuff…

Hades: I WAS HAVING SUCH A GOOD TIME!

i was wondering what happened to boss design of elden ring?

and on the other note, would you like in hades 2, depiction of aphrodite as patron of cosmic/maternal love? with more body fat etc?

The semiotics of body type in character design is always such a thorny thing, because it's this constant push and pull between calling on existing meanings and associations in culture, vs pushing boundaries and trying to redefine those meanings and associations.

Aphrodite isn't really associated with maternal love I believe (classics nerds can correct me in the replies), more like erotic and romantic love, pleasure and passion. I think her design is well served by simply Being Hot™ in whatever way most readily communicates that "this character is meant to be hot" visually to the audience. It is annoying and shitty that "hot" almost always means "skinny" to a general audience, but that's those troublesome semiotics.

I cite Dionysus as a character who's a natural fit for a soft body, too. To me, it sort of doesn't comport that he of all gods has a gym jacked physique - specifically because of the amount of self-denial and struggle it takes to achieve that kind of physique. Again, not to say that Dionysus HAS to be fat because fat = hedonism (it does not), but I think it is a flaw in his visual storytelling to make him Gym Ripped because my man in a party boy who likes his drink and his food and his f... rolicking, and does not like getting up with a hangover at 6am to run 5K and do a crossfit regimen. That's more Ares' or Hermes' kind of style. Dionysus, at least in Hades, is more about softness and self-indulgence and letting loose and being cool about things, letting stuff slide and just having a good time.

Zeus or Poseidon, with their affable patriarch / unreliable uncle characters, also would make good fits for dad bods. Specifically, the bodies of dudes who used to be extremely gym fit, but who have gotten comfortable and gone a bit softer around the edges now that they no longer have to show off and prove themselves all the time. Zeus perhaps along the lines of a powerlifter, Poseidon more like a former competitive swimmer.

For Hades himself, on the other hand, I think it DOES make sense to keep him muscled up, low in body fat and jacked, because the man, as a character, is such a self-denying, self-punishing workaholic. He fills the emotional void in his heart with Fulfilment Of The Duty, which includes being the final gatekeeper of the underworld who must be ready to defend it. Like, yeah, he WOULD have a rigid, inflexible diet and exercise routine optimized to keep him in peak shape to do battle if the duty should call him to it, because he does not think he deserves to take a rest, he does not think he deserves softness or pleasure or joy. That's part of the resentment he keeps taking out on Zagreus as the game opens.

Anyway, the semiotics of body type in character design is inherently problematic from literally every angle, there is no perfect or morally pure way to do it, we live in a complex web of conflicting meanings and cultural assumptions and we all just have to do our best with it.

EDIT: Oh, and Elden Ring will be back Soon™

[avee-anne]

Hades (the dad not the game) has unused dialogue in the game's files where he's NOT holding back with his words. 😭

Blast you, brother Zeus, and you as well, Poseidon, both of you, you mis'rable ungrateful wretches. You, and all your pig-faced children, and your concubines, all there with you, all gaily celebrating every waking moment there upon your mountain, while I alone, alone! remain at work, here, tending to the blasted remnants of those mortals whom you send to me in droves, in DROVES, without regard, without so much as reaching out to me from, time to time, to check upon your oft-forgotten brother? With whom you sealed those blasted Titans underneath this realm, so that you could consort without concern, as now you do?! That such a fate as this would have been wrought for me, by those three cursed hags, or by the two of you, I swear, I swear…! And do not get me started on that damned ungrateful little runt now tending to his hopeless undertaking at my own expense, brazen little bastard that he is. His mother would be oh so very proud, so very proud, no doubt, to see him violating my domain, my home, my rules! The boy, he's even got into the dog's damned heads with his damnable notions, certainly his mother's guiles, plainly on display. Those fools upon Olympus, all abetting his inglorious attempts to give up everything he has, to give up everything I ever gave him!

Hades: Let’s say your cousin Lord Dionysus did something to permanently change Prosymnus’ residence.

Zagreus: He penetrated himself with a wooden phallus over that shade’s grave to fulfill the promise of making love to him despite death, I know.

Hades: …I…did not…

Zagreus: Yeah, he told me a short while ago, and he was so wistful about it…I think it was the second time I ever saw him shed tears.

Zagreus: …Well, one tear.

Zagreus: The first time was when he told me he was proud of me.

Zagreus: He’s surprisingly tender-hearted.

Knowing how Hades is in the show now it’ll be really funny to see him and Nico interact bc Nico will be all Dark and Depressed in the underworld and Hades will just be like “son… please… you’re killing the vibe”
