Fighting is hell.

Quitting Hades cold turkey is going to be hell

I play a lot of games. I play some of those games for a long time, and usually, I don’t worry about it. But every now and then, I must force myself to quit, and that’s where I’m at with Hades.

If you don’t know, Hades is a roguelike action role-playing game. That means that your goal is to clear your way through randomly generated dungeons until you reach the end, but death sends you back to the start. Along the way, you’ll earn powerups that are both temporary for that run and permanent for the rest of the game. While you’re unlikely to “beat” the game on the first go, the combination of those upgrades and your own improving skills will eventually get you there.
