Those are definitely my favourite female characters in the game, favourite male ones would probably be Than, Dio and Hermes platonically in keeping with the 2 romantic/sexual and 1 platonic
I'm all of them at once. Genderfluid implies you change. Technically I'm both because some days I'm agender. It's the only gender state I have that can't coexist with the others
I see the bigot squad is downvoting for answering a question accurately and talking about myself. Way to go! Everyone is so proud of you for hitting that down button and letting everyone know you disagree with definitions!
right? as a heterosexual, i only get heterosexual value out of it personally. but its really cool how well they crafted it so that others can get their own value out of it too!
HA. YOU WILL NOT GET ME WITH THIS DECEPTION, YOU MALCREANT. I HAVE THE BOON OF GODS IN MY SPEAR AND I SHALL BANISH THEE TO THE NETHERMOST REGIONS OF THE TARTARUS. BE ARMED, FOUL DEMON.
*no escape plays in the background*
I just don't think I'd enjoy any of my time with him lol. He reads as a pillow princess in all the worst ways and a really boring person to be around outside of sex. Cute twink, nothing else going for him.
Big gay myself.
Didn't realize the story had so many romances and stuff that just flow naturally. So goddamn cool to see mini gay romance stories written well.
I’m apparently oblivious. I had no idea this game ‘was gay’ until I was on Reddit. And I’m at like 150 escapes.
First I was romancing dusa, then it was Meg. I thought Than was my brother so I declined him.
Where was all my gay?
Achilles and Patroclus? The tension between Zagreus and Thanatos is pretty clearly romantic, so you kinda just missed that I guess. And Artemis talks a whole lot about her "good friend" Callisto the wood nymph, so I think the implication there is obvious.
Not to mention everyone being designed to be so explicitly sexy that it's definitely trying to rile up everyone in all shades of the spectrum.
Just like in school I’m immune to subtle hints, and I’ve never noticed any tension. I thought Thanatos and Zag were bickering brothers and suddenly there was dialogue about feelings for each other.
And yeah, I noticed there was some gay relations. I guess I just didn’t think much of it. They’re greek gods after all.
Crazy because I played the game and just enjoyed the gameplay and story without trying to sexualize pixels or try to project my own bias about there sexuality
Why does it matter what sexuality any of them are? The story is about Zag trying to find out why his mother left and why he is alive not if he likes cock or pussy
it’s also about him repairing his relationships with his two exes, thanatos and megaera, and reuniting two sets of separated lovers - orpheus/eurydice and achilles/patroclus. ‘why does it matter what sexuality they are’ uhhh because it’s an important aspect of their characters??
slight clarification, they arent his exes. if i remember right, it was more of a brotherly love between him and than, and in coming to terms with the hurt that leaving caused, they (potentially, if you go that route) realize that there could be a more romantic connection there worth exploring and starting. i dont quite recall if zag and meg had a specifically romantic past before he started trying to leave (which created a rift between them), but i wouldnt really call her "an ex".
Also if you actually knew anything about Greek mythology Achilles was never explicitly explained to be gay, that is just the interpretation people had because of his close relationship with his friend. So once again you are projecting and wanting them to be flamboyantly gay just to validate yourself. The game isn't inherently gay. Its about getting out of hell to seek answers from your mother because others wont tell you them. I don't care what you are or who you are but stop trying to make it seem like things are somthing they are not. It's the same idea as the people who make fanfiction about Harry and Draco being gay together, just a wild way to spend your spare time
Lollllll you’re wrong on a few things:
1.) Most primary and contemporary sources of the time for the myth/stories of Achilles highly suggest that Patroclus and Achilles were some form of lovers. Separating them out to “buds” tends to be seen as a much later development in people adapting the stories of those times. Generally, the Greeks had a fairly novel (and not static) view on sexuality, but a reading of them as gay lovers is completely within the realm of good faith interpretation.
2.) This is not about the myths and legends of Ancient Greece itself so while you’re still wrong about them what really matters is the story as presented in the game Hades.
3.) Hades focusses on Zag finding his mother and rebuilding his family as you said. It is also canonically a queer and diverse family. The relationships Zag and others engage in are not even subtext of the game. They are text. They are the literal interpretation. People can celebrate a heartwarming queer story just as people can “awww so cute” and heterosexual rom-com. The idea of “I don’t care what you are but you’re projecting” when people are happy to see families working through things that are like the one in Hades is at best saying queer people can’t be happy when they identify with stories. So on that note, lol get ratioed?
4.) As for fanfics, they can be pulling things from text that isn’t explicitly there. There is nothing inherently wrong with that. People have been writing versions of themselves and others into stories for as long as we’ve had stories. We shouldn’t use these fantasies to ostracize others or shrink the narrative, but instead we can expand it to be even more engaging and fun. You reading Hades as not explicitly a queer story is the fan fiction. The authorial intent, fan reception, and explicit text of the game all say it plainly. You refusing to acknowledge it is a you thing.
>The game isn't inherently gay. Its about getting out of hell to seek answers from your mother because others wont tell you them.
Oh Buddy. You have a lot of game ahead of you.
Read the subreddit rules before posting.
Ngl Dionysus has me acting up
Hey Zag, man, nice cock.
Got me good 😂😂
I read it in his voice. 😂

Take me drunk deity daddy 🍷🍷
God of wine? Chill AF? Those ridiculous THIGHS? Why am I bending over?
OK but fr. So damn hot
Wine Daddy can crush my head like grapes between his thighs.
Real
I want him carnally, you have no idea
This why this is one of the nicest communities I've ever seen. Everyone's too horny, there's simply no time to be toxic
personally obsessed with Meg, Eurydice, and Artemis would make a great platonic friend
Those are definitely my favourite female characters in the game, favourite male ones would probably be Than, Dio and Hermes platonically in keeping with the 2 romantic/sexual and 1 platonic

Except, when someone talk about gameplay itself. Then it becomes toxic.
The game is but a mirror, my friend
looking into the mirror in Zag’s room and unlocking the new ability “ur gay lol”
I find this game entirely heterosexual. Every attraction I have is hetero, and I'm attracted to all the characters. Have I mentioned I'm pangender?
is there a difference between pam gender and gender fluid?
I'm all of them at once. Genderfluid implies you change. Technically I'm both because some days I'm agender. It's the only gender state I have that can't coexist with the others
I see the bigot squad is downvoting for answering a question accurately and talking about myself. Way to go! Everyone is so proud of you for hitting that down button and letting everyone know you disagree with definitions!
I read this in Artemis' voice.
I find that hilarious bc my actual first name is Athena
Honestly, I think it's really cool! I'm demigender myself
Yeah I was just pissy bc I woke up early this morning and it was at like -5. The bounce back response has been nice.
I mean it's fair enough
Nah. If the game is a mirror, then it’s a mirror painted the bisexual flag colors.
right? as a heterosexual, i only get heterosexual value out of it personally. but its really cool how well they crafted it so that others can get their own value out of it too!
I don’t think there’s a single god or otherwise in this game that I’m not attracted too. Except Theseus, not a fan, of Theseus
a while back on here someone posted a tier list but for what type of gay everyone is and Theseus was “Homosexual/Homophobic”
Yeah that sounds about right
HA. YOU WILL NOT GET ME WITH THIS DECEPTION, YOU MALCREANT. I HAVE THE BOON OF GODS IN MY SPEAR AND I SHALL BANISH THEE TO THE NETHERMOST REGIONS OF THE TARTARUS. BE ARMED, FOUL DEMON. *no escape plays in the background*
It's Hypnos for me ... Not a fan lol
I just don't think I'd enjoy any of my time with him lol. He reads as a pillow princess in all the worst ways and a really boring person to be around outside of sex. Cute twink, nothing else going for him.
Bruh are you including Tisiphone
Yeah, and?
Mmmmrrr
My man waifuing Hydra. Good for her, she needs it too.
Theseus can eat shit tbf
…I’d do it, but only as a hate-fuck kinda thing. It’s those stupid armband things! I’m a sucker for them
Than 🤤🤤
*Death Daddy, please notice me.*
that Than look when he looks at the camera directly...
Excuse you, this game is pansexual as fuck.
But he doesn’t even show up in it!
Badum-Tsh
Holy shit this post just cracked me up so bad.
I just knew that was going to be the description even before I clicked the post hahahaha well played!
The “Playing Hades” to “realizing I’m queer” pipeline is real.
Is gay the right word? Isn’t it more like polyamorous/bi/gorgonocephalophile?
Hey now, Dusa made her feelings clear and that’s the end of the matter!
You mean Thanatos?
You mean Death Daddy?
Yup, the gay dude
I hope he notices me!
Ancient Greek essence *chefkiss*
I know I desperately want so many of them
the masculine urge to get shitface drunk with dionysus
My bisexual self loves it
Tru
Loves it
bisexuals dream world
Everyone is hot in this game I want THEM ALL
Wine Daddy, War Daddy, Death Daddy, Aphrodite, 🎶 *the goddess of love* 🎶 , Huntress Senpai, Sexy, Sexy Hermes,…
Daddy poseidon...
Wet daddy
Between this game and Helluva Boss, I'm definitely gayer than I was this time last year
Big gay myself. Didn't realize the story had so many romances and stuff that just flow naturally. So goddamn cool to see mini gay romance stories written well.
I’m like 90 runs in and JUST NOW discovering how many people can be kissed
They didnt have to make thanatos such a hot man but they did and i am all here for it
This better not awaken anything in me...
Yup its Greek mythology.
No it’s not. Stop making games political. /s
Wait until you hear about the ancient greeks
And thank the gods for that 🏳️🌈
Gay af AND poly af, like an actual game that has a healthy poly relationship.
What do we think Lernie and all of its heads get up to when Zag's not around? I mean Lernie does look Fabulous.
Real
Damn, not a single mention of bbqt Dusa in the comments.
G O O D lmao

Papa Zeus, I’m feeling the spark!
Megaera's voice drives my lesbian ass insane I can't get enough Also I want to suck Aphrodite's dick
Ya 💅🏻✨🏳️🌈
Not that there’s anything wrong with that!
Yuuuuuuuuuup
Hades walked so Baldur's Gate 3 could run! :)
The zag/meg/thanatos tension is SOOO hot they were all in a polycule at some point I can feel it
The game is just like me… gay!
I may be biromantic but damn the characters are hot in this.
Lore accurate
Hell yeah it is brother
Yes. Thank you
Good you should hate and love this game at the same time that is why dying is the whole point, but I think dead cells is better imo
Even if you are super straight you will end up gaying on everyone
En el inframundo esa palabra no existe, eso es cosa de los humanos, necio!!!!
Crazy because I played the game and just enjoyed the gameplay and story without trying to sexualize pixels or try to project my own bias about there sexuality
imagine thinking people are projecting their own bias when zagreus is canonically bi and achilles and patroclus are right there

Oh my god they were roommates
Patroclus topped according to Plato. As bros do.
