Omg I watched clash of the titans as a kid but I'm half the age

Since Homer is the narrator of Hades I and II, it is 9th century BC at the earliest, except there are better context clues in Hades I. Not looking at Greek mythology itself, but in the Aspects. Guan Yu lived from 160 AD to 220 AD King Arthur might’ve been a military leader in the 5th century AD, but all we know is that his story was first written as legend in the 1130s AD. Beowulf as publication was disputed between 700 to 1000 AD. Lucifer as a name for the Christian Devil was first found in the 4th century AD version of the King James Bible, for “morning star”, being the planet Venus. Rama and Gilgamesh wouldn’t push the date in the slightest. So I’d say it takes place in the 5th to 7th century AD.

No it doesn't, there are multiple references to the final aspects in the first game being from futures not yet realized. If you really wanted to try and timeline the games, It'd be more productive to look at which Greek heroes exist as shades meaning they've died.

Most Greek mythology is set during the Mycenean period, roughly 1750 to 1000 BC. Of course, these are not historical events and aren't set in any actual time, but Hades is a loose retelling of the abduction of persephone and therefore the origin of the season of winter, putting it firmly in the ancient Greek times I'd say

That game would be the absolute best game I've played all year long... If I wasn't met with the infamous "fatal error, failed to meet minimum system requirement"... On my souped up HP Zbook X2 workstation (with 32Gigs ram, Directx12, Nvidia Quadro M600 with the latest driver... sure, it's from 2018, but still, you're not going to tell me a $4k workstation is less powerful than a steamdeck ?). Tried everything that was on the book and nothing works. I still can't play the game. And from the looks of it on the forums, I'm far from being the only one. I hope some of the devs can look into this issue quickly, as it's blocking quite a lot of people all over the world to have early access to their game, hindering lot of valuable feedback, which is kinda the point of early access. Other than that, awesome interview ! It's great to peek a bit into their minds about the future of the game (and great editing at the end on the brooding). If you're looking for other quality pieces of medias that feature Greek Mythologies, the ones that sparked my interest when I was a kid were Ulysse 31, a fantastic French/Japanese cartoon of the 80's about the Odysseus but in a futuristic Star Wars sci-ci epic universe, and Saint Seiya, one of the most quintessential shonen animes of history (with fantastic characters, art direction, and my goodness the music ! I'm sure Jen Zee, the chara designer and concept artist of Supergiant Game is an old fan already, seeing as how she designed the "bronze" armors of Asterius and Theseus in the first game), which borrows heavily on greek mythology (most of the big gods are there) while keeping a fairly creative freedom out of it (they don't necessarily behave or serve the same roles like in the myths). Now, LET ME PLAAAAY !!!!
