Not exclusive, but Hades has cross-save if you care about that
I didn't know this, thanks!

Two questions...Does anyone know if Slay the Spire also has this? And second, if I don't own it yet, is Hades better on PC (keyboard/mouse) or the Switch?

I am a FPS guy, don't even like rogue like games. Hades was different. One of the best games ever. Worth every penny.

Quote from pumpkinwhite :
Pretty sure that it eventually will go down. Question is as to when. Supergiant Games puts their other two games at aggressive sale prices (these prices repeat often). Point is - they don't seem averse to setting really low prices (in fact - they gave away Bastion for free on iOS when they changed publishers). So eventually when the game is old enough, they'll probably have Hades too on a steep sale. However, I don't expect them to reduce its sale price any time soon. Hades has been the indie darling of the year. There is no other similar game in the market right now that's grabbing headlines. So I think its price will reduce slowly.

I myself am on the fence about buying this game at this sale. I played Bastion just last week, and finished it just a few days ago. I loved every minute of it. However, between my PS5, XBox Series X and Switch, I have a infinite backlog, that I know I won't get through. So wondering if I should get this and put it in the front of my queue, or wait till end of the year to see if it drops a bit more.

Super helpful. I'm in the same boat and decided to hold out after reading this - with my love of JRPGs and two very long ones next on the to-play list I think I'll wait for either another $20 deal (seems to come every month for Digital) or (possibly?) less by the time Dragon Quest XI S and Persona 5 Strikers are done.

I've been picking up like 2 eshop games a month, at this rate, I'm gonna need a 1TB microSD card. I've already had to delete games on the 128GB card to make space for games that I actually play.

I just bought it on Switch after being recommended this game constantly by my friends.

I had the choice between Switch, PS5, and PC.

I'm extremely glad I got this on Switch because it's legit one of the most addicting games I've ever played and is perfect to be able to play on my TV, on the couch, or in bed.

You'll have a blast regardless of platform, but I hiiiiiighly recommend it on Switch unless you want a 4K resolution or really high framerate (which honestly, I'm considering purchasing this again on PC to support the devs because this game is just that top notch).

I probably have more Switch games than I'll ever finish in this lifetime at this point but after watching a couple reviews for Void Bastards (Deluxe) and Full Metal Furies (for the couch coop with the kiddos) I picked those up. A few personal random recommendations would be Shovel Knight, Slay the Spire, Bastion, Enter the Gungeon, those are all great pick ups if you're into the those types of games (rogue lites, platformers). My Friend Pedro is a delightfully silly bullet dodging blast as well, but seems pretty short overall. I'm not done with it yet but I have a feeling I'm getting towards the end with around 5-6 hours into it.
