whoo thanks for this now i don’t have to look through the post myself!

> Guess I am hating a lil bit, my bad, just don't know why people are so eager to book their seats in a fandom, sight unseen, like they're gonna get a pre-order bonus

these are probably the people eager to chase fandom fame. get into a fandom early enough before it blows up, write a bedrock fic, be famous for the entirety of that fandom’s life. rinse repeat for next fandom

yeah ff14 dawn whatever defo shouldn't qualify

i think hades 2 shouldn’t either. it’s a direct sequel as you say, and from what’s been said by people who have played it (as well as i think the developers but don’t quote me) the game is basically complete. they’re not gonna suddenly add a million patches that give a brand new ending, or hide things behind several dlcs. a whole bunch of new characters and stuff but hmm. not sold that it’s its own entity

hope they shoot down shaperaverse because of what coalie said below

Hades 2 is definitely not complete. While you can fight and beat the final boss the story doesn't continue past there and if it's anything like Hades 1 you'll need to beat him multiple times before you reach an actual ending. Plus there's a second route that you can only get about halfway through currently and I'd be surprised if you didn't need to conplete it to get to the ending.

Having said all that, I don't think it should qualify. You probably could play it without any knowledge of the first game but I'm not sure I'd recommend it without playing the first; it doesn't feel like it stands alone.
