seems to be comparable to the lowest price on the switch.

PS5 runs at a higher resolution and framerate but that's the only difference.
Don't listen to this guy, everything he has said is untrue. He's tried saying the PS5 version has better graphics, it does not. He tried saying it has different animations and attack cues, it does not.
It's the exact same game running at a higher resolution/framerate.
If you plan on playing it on the go obviously the switch, but if you mostly use your switch docked PS5 is your best bet. or buy both.
It's not that you're being misunderstood, what you said was simply not true.
I bought this after seeing everyone rave about it on here… and I just didn't care for it.
I went into it expecting it to be Diablo-ish, (rogue like), which it is… but it's even more of a grind (not in a good way), and even more repetitive since the "moves" (physical attacks, magic, defense, etc) your character can do are based on and limited to the weapon you choose and are stuck with for the duration of a run, plus some random buffs you get to choose from before each run.
If you die before or during a boss fight? You go all the way back to the start. Not even Metroid is that cruel.
Room after room of two or so types of enemies reminded me of original Zelda without the charm of nostalgia.
If you're having a successful run, it's difficult to put the game down to resume later… not because it's fun, but because you end up back at the start.
Other obligations would inevitably pull me away from this game each time I played, and eventually it was an easy decision to give it up since I found progressing to be tedious and repetitive rather than fun.
If you can't clear your calendar to play, you may feel the same way.
I have, it's not different.
Exact same game. the only difference is the resolution and framerate.

That's kind of the main staple of the entire genre.
Diablo is in no way shape or form rogue like. not sure where you got that from.
Not sure why you're comparing Hades to Diablo, Metroid or Zelda at all. they are all completely different genres entirely.

There's no disagreement. What you are saying is straight up nonsense.
The game is 100% identical on all platforms. The only difference is the resolution and framerate it runs at. There are no special animations or attack cues in other versions.
That's a fact. You are spreading misinformation.

Again - casual gamer here, but since there are likely others like me out there I decided to share my opinion/perspective for their benefit.
Relating it to the most similar titles I've played, or other popular games people like me might relate to.
Sounds like you're deeper into gaming than me and understand the nuance of dividing line between game genres better than me, which is cool. Just keep in mind that slickdeals has a broad spectrum of users and some people will find your perspective more relatable, and others will relate better to mine.
Also sounds like I'm not alone since "Diablo" is referenced more than once in the Wikipedia article on "Roguelike". Article says it scored lower than the MOST rogue like games, but the fact that credible sources took the time to score it and refer to it as "rogue-lite" suggests I'm not too far out of line.

There is a way to play Diablo where your character is deleted when you die. That's the roguelike angle.
Almost nobody plays Diablo this way.
That said visually and in terms of the way the maps work z Hades plays a lot like Diablo 3 did, only you are committing to builds up front, and start from scratch *while earning some permanent buffs* every time you die.

Yeah, I don't get the hype either. Keep doing runs over and over again. It must appeal to ADHD types. It's like a graphical version of Vampire Survivors.
