HMMMM

this is now a #rowanplayshades thread so you can mute it, but the main character having that cute little trail of leaves is such a charming little detail

#rowanplayshades 5 seconds into meeting her and I already want Meg to utterly wreck both Zagreus but also me honestly

#rowanplayshades yes in fact i AM

#rowanplayshades i just think shes NEAT

#RowanplaysHades playing with the shield just makes me feel like captain america and it's very, very fun but i think the bow is my fav

#rowanplayhades "what's that you have zag"
"a set of fists"
"NO"

#rowanplaysHades ME

#rowanplaysHades playing games during work hours feels weird and bad but i'm utterly useless right so here we go, going to attempt a run. left option has 2 so like? do i get two powerups?? hell yeah

#rowanplaysHades the answer to that question is "yes, but fuck you"

#rowanplaysHades I've met Demeter and Patroclus and I think someone else but their shop hasn't popped up in a while because it still takes me forever to get to Elysium!
I'm only on like 32 tries but genuinely every loop is so narratively satisfying

#rowanplaysHades here for my 7pm ass kicking ma'am

#rowanplayshades I cannot articulate enough how you don't have to be good at games to play this game and get the story. It rewards you for playing and losing (35 times now) has been unique in some capacity every time & never feels like a real loss.

#rowanplayshades there is a moment in this game where I was SO scared I was going to have to do something ( http://rot13.com  spoilers // xvyy preorehf) but you DO NOT HAVE TO and it's the biggest relief.

also, i love him

#rowanplayshades [zag voice] i've been dying to meet you

#rowanplayshades WIFE CITY WIFE CITY WIFE CITY

#rowanplayshades I LOVE......WRETCHED BROKER.

#rowanplayshades this game is hard if you have no memory and are not great at games where the goal is not to die while everything tries to kill you

#rowanplayshades me and my steam screenshots

#rowanplayshades [SHOVES MY FIST INTO MY MOUTH AND SCREAMS] meg!!!!!!!

#rowanplayshades i hate his boyfriend and his stupid shield but i would like to hug asterius please. Really is just this meme https://twitter.com/Skoog/status/1093164148614197248

#rowanplayshades lbr the real reason hades doesn't want zag to bounce is because he has to kill theseus to get out of here and that means that theseus respawns in the House which is probably SUPER ANNOYING lol

#rowanplayshades Zag giving everyone nectar including gods

#rowanplayshades I am so fucking bad at this game I am telling myself I haven’t beat the final boss because of plot to make it less terrible I’m on 50+ runs.

#rowanplayshades THIS GAME LMAO I STRUGGLE THROUGH FIFTY MILLION ATTEMPTS, WIN, AND IT'S LIKE congratulations! NOW THE GAME CAN BE HARDER!

me: no that's ok thank you tho

#rowanplayshades love them

#rowanplayshades oh, the shield is....good...actually

#rowanplayhades i would like to know who decided the decks in asphodel should be 2 inches wide because i hate them

#rowanplayshades i love him, i hate it, but i love him

#rowanplayshades i'm going to make this bedding for myself i think!!!!!! i have the power!!!!!!

#rowanplayshades

#rowanplayshades thank you sg games for the food

#rowanplayshades buddy i am TRYING

#rowanplayshades me

#rowanplayshades beating than 28 to 4 and he never even shows up

#rowanplayshades than showing up when zag's at 3hp and then telling him "it's clear, go," and bouncing
