There are games we enjoy and love and there are games that hit that personal chord within us. I love that you found that in Hades.
Reflecting back on the game, I love that Hades found small ways to encourage us to make progress no matter whether it's small or big. Being able to speak to friends/further a conversation, giving pets to the best dog in the universe, seeing ourselves become stronger -- all of it just enough to help me try again. I appreciate you taking it further and making that personal connection. Thank you for writing and sharing with us! It was a beautiful piece.
