He actually does! And theseus backtracks so hard Theseus: Why, look, Asterius! It seems the fiend has brought some sort of nondescript yarn-ball! Not seen the likes of it.

My personal headcanon is that Theseus isn’t allowed to realize that Zagreus is Persephone’s son because then they’d have to confront the fact that he tried to get it with his mom once, and then Zagreus would simply beat him to a pulp every time he went through Elysium.

Everyone in Greek mythology is a rotten bag. The only reason Ares bothered to rescue Thanatos was because war was boring to him without death. The scales of justice are very unbalanced in the mythos of Greece, mortals are punished far less (or even rewarded) for doing far worse to one another while sundered for eternity for the faintest slight to the gods, and the gods and toy with the lives and souls of mortals for their own entertainment with naught for recompense.
@@kaylenvee8150 Not only that, because we don't have a clear timeline on when the incident happened, there's a part of me that imagined Thanatos being only a child when he was trapped.

well, glad to see Nyx has Ares in the friendzone, and was just teaching him stuff about the underworld... Nyx also mentions Athena, wonder if she taught her stuff as well since Athena mentioned she was interested in Nyx like Ares did
I don't think Ares was seeking Nyx for a romantic relationship, he's just interested in her and simply wanted to speak with her personally in a casual way
Ares and Athena not being on good terms? Well... Considering their roles, it makes sense: - Ares is the God of war, more specifically the BRUTAL side of it. Bloodshed, violence and all that. All Power. All offense. - Athena, meanwhile... is more representative of the defensive side of war as the Goddess of Wisdom. Leadership, strategy, proper defence, basically ending battles with minimal bloodshed. And naturally, it's no surprise as to why they don't agree with each other! Damn, Supergiant know their mythology really well. That's a game for me to buy soon.
Athena was also far more venerated and beloved by the Greeks, who did not hold Ares in very high esteem due to the violet, discordant nature he represented. His Roman counterpart Mars was held in far more positive regard.
@@GoddessUmbra i thought hephaestus was the least favorite child but i guess theyre both in the same low tier. thats seemingly one of the interpretations for Zeus to go about "hurling his thunderbolt" if you know what i mean around every other woman and sometimes other goddesses in greece, he ultimately is so dissapointed with the children Hera gave him he wants actually good ones. in turn he usually ends up helping them or convincing the other gods to help them a lot. its also funny to think that, Athena is tecnically Zeus first child with his first wife that he literally absorbed inside himself to try and circunvent gaias prophecy that his progenitor would dethrone him, which some other exagerated interpretations try to tie dionysius as the other child he was supposed to have with this first wife (sorry forgot her name) because zeus kinda nurtured him inside his own body because of a little oopsie regarding his original human mother which is a bit of a long story.
I really need to find out if in SuperGiants version of the Greek Myths the following: What made Theseus abandon Ariand? In some versions its due to Divine Intervention usually Athena telling him something... but in most is due to him being an Asshole (ya know the guy who kidnap a young child Helen of Troy to marry later when she gets older). Im curious if he somehow found out she was using him, because she helped imediatly when she saw him, and most say its due to love but she has such a fucked up family i wouldnt be suprised she wanted to escape imediatly. So either he found out and abandon her or the gods told him. Either way hes still a Douche.
The versions where it’s divine intervention mostly come from Athens, aka Theseus’ home. Makes sense they would rewrite their main heroes’ story to make him seem less douchey. Happens all the time in Greek mythology. Whenever there’s multiple versions of a myth some of them tend to have some cultural bias to them. It’s very fascinating.
I was laughing my ass out of how passionate and breathtaken sounded the statue commentaries xD The voice actor of Zagreus is a god of voiceacting, jeez.
I'm a little disappointed they didn't use my favorite version of the Sisyphus myth. He dies once, but in the underworld he captures thanatos and chains him up, so nobody can die. While the gods sort out thanatos being in chains, sisyphus is able to escape the underworld. Sisyphus then dies again, but has his wife not perform the proper burial rites. Sisyphus convinces hades to let him go aboveground to tell her what to do with the promise that he'll come right back. A promise he immediately breaks. Hades wants to send thanatos to go kill sisyphus, but Thanatos is scared of sisyphus after what happened last time, so sisyphus gets to live a long life.
I'd heard that Sisyphus tricked Persephone about the missed burial rites thing, and Persephone was hella pissed when she learned that he'd lied to her.
i heard he tricked thanatos and chained him using the soul binding chains that Hades gave to him (and kinda later became his own personal tool) while he was still alive, as the gods themselves comissioned Hades to kill/punish him for being overall a very dickish king and violating several laws of hospitality (he invited people to his castle only to kill and steal their goods) later the other gods themselves i remember Ares and someone else intervened because they were pissed people were unable to die. one wonders why they didnt smite him themselves and made Hades do the dirty work this time, maybe they tried including him in their god business or something for a change and Hades might have been bored and not too much of a sore-ass that day (probably because on this legend persephone was with him so he was more meekly maybe)
Still love Sisyphus in this game. He's all friendly, but then hits with the "I never was terribly fearful of you gods" and you realise that even though he helps you out and is very polite that he really is no pushover. Especially since he trapped the god of death by essentially being the bugs bunny of the era (he tricked Thanatos into putting on manacles and then locked him in a closet).
Isn’t Ariadne Dionysus wife? And I find it ironic that the most faithful and devoted husbands among Greek gods aren’t the ones you would think first (Hades/Persephone with hades being god of the dead, Eros/Psyche with Eros being a god of lust and Dionysus/Ariadne with Dio being the god of wine). You would think first would be too busy in his work, second would chase women around and third being an abusive drunk yet here we are
So Aphrodite is cheating on Hephaestos with Ares and Ares is now going out with Nyx truly some of the shittiest members of the pantheon Though there's hera: kills, curses or enslaves a good deal of the women zeus elopes with (or forces himself onto) as well as their heirs zeus: womanizer who can't take responsibility for his triggered wife + r-ped his sister (and more) hephaestos: tried to r-pe athena athena: made medusa so ugly she kills people because she and poseidon boinked in her temple, then had a hero go out and kill her and then mounted her head on her shield, plus she turned Arachne into the first spider because athena wasn't as good at weaving so that's some fierce competition
@@KleptomaniacJames Allow a Greek to know kinda better, even if there are accounts saying that Athena was not better, she knew for sure how to weave. Arachne maybe was better though.
@@KleptomaniacJames If you consider this abuse of power, you forget poor Teresia and she did what she did by accident. Keep in mind that himbris was actually a sin in ancient greece so theorically, Athena's action of turning Aracne to a spider was covered. Yet again she blinded Teresia by panic and in ancient greek when a god punishes someone, the punish cannot be lifted (that's why Prometheus had to carry a ring with the stone he was tied after Hercules released him) As for the dna comment. Not, it doesn't but it happens for me to study the myths of my country. So yeah I probably have the actual sources in my shcool and staff? Regardless, fighting over how shitty the greek gods were is pointless, they were shit either way.
well at least nyx clearly has ares in the friendzone, and apparently ares did want to learn stuff from her... nyx mentioned athena as well, who said she was interested in Nyx like Ares

I love bouldy
Isn’t Ariadne Dionysus wife? And I find it ironic that the most faithful and devoted husbands among Greek gods aren’t the ones you would think first (Hades/Persephone with hades being god of the dead, Eros/Psyche with Eros being a god of lust and Dionysus/Ariadne with Dio being the god of wine). You would think first would be too busy in his work, second would chase women around and third being an abusive drunk yet here we are
6:10 sounds like he needs to work out some issues...
Guess noone noticed that shade by Sisyphus going "OH SHIIII-" when Sisyphus threw shade at Thanatos. @ 1:28
i kinda like theseus ngl, he's shitty but so so funny, him and asterius both
So Aphrodite is cheating on Hephaestos with Ares
and Ares is now going out with Nyx
truly some of the shittiest members of the pantheon
Though there's
hera: kills, curses or enslaves a good deal of the women zeus elopes with (or forces himself onto) as well as their heirs
zeus: womanizer who can't take responsibility for his triggered wife + r-ped his sister (and more)
hephaestos: tried to r-pe athena
athena: made medusa so ugly she kills people because she and poseidon boinked in her temple, then had a hero go out and kill her and then mounted her head on her shield, plus she turned Arachne into the first spider because athena wasn't as good at weaving
so that's some fierce competition
Actually Athena and Arachne were equals in weaving, the reason Athena punished her was the fact she called out she was better and this was hybris.
@@kaihiwatari5476 DIfferent accounts disagree, but it's still a dick move either way
@@KleptomaniacJames Allow a Greek to know kinda better, even if there are accounts saying that Athena was not better, she knew for sure how to weave. Arachne maybe was better though.
@@kaihiwatari5476 what? is the story written in your dna or something?
regardless it doesn't change the abuse of power athena committed
@@KleptomaniacJames If you consider this abuse of power, you forget poor Teresia and she did what she did by accident. Keep in mind that himbris was actually a sin in ancient greece so theorically, Athena's action of turning Aracne to a spider was covered. Yet again she blinded Teresia by panic and in ancient greek when a god punishes someone, the punish cannot be lifted (that's why Prometheus had to carry a ring with the stone he was tied after Hercules released him) As for the dna comment. Not, it doesn't but it happens for me to study the myths of my country. So yeah I probably have the actual sources in my shcool and staff? Regardless, fighting over how shitty the greek gods were is pointless, they were shit either way.
Bouldy is an aincient cathonic god, change my mind
I hope Zag helps us like Than can in Hades 2 by using the elder sigal
YOU CAN TALK TO THE DAME ROCK?????
let's keep it real for a moment, dusa and sisyphus are the best characters
Buoldy:🗿
Oh no more ares and nyx
well at least nyx clearly has ares in the friendzone, and apparently ares did want to learn stuff from her... nyx mentioned athena as well, who said she was interested in Nyx like Ares
voidox u have rested my soul a little lol
Imagine your cousin and our stepmom...
@@arnowisp6244 there is a tag for that
Sisyphus be like after 5 more millennia "ayo dis boulder looking kinda bad doe"
Sisyphus don’t give a damn lmao
I get it ares
Bouldy is leagues better than Rocco will ever be
5:50
Theseus annoying? I find him to be even worse as Narcissus.
Why would you hate narcissus?
@@joaquinbitancor1269 Because he’s a vain jerk who rejected everyone who loved him including Echo and Amenias.
