“I wish Supergiant would get the roguelite bug out of their system and make sequels to Bastion and then Transistor finally.”
Was what I typed in our group chat. The three of us are mid to late 30s with me being the oldest by 3 months.
To say it went over like a brick balloon would be an understatement. So, I wanted to see if fellow game players had thoughts on it. Am I crazy? Do you agree?
IIRC they (or at least their design lead) explicitly stated that since the founders were Diablo fans, something like Hades was basically their dream.(And imo you can already see some of that in Bastion and Transistor so I don’t think it was PR talk) So it’s not surprising they’d go for a sequel given how well it was received. But I’m sure they’ll stop soon enough, they don’t seem to be the kind of studio that is in it for the money and I’m sure Hades and Hades 2 are giving them more than enough money to take creative risks in the future.
