In this episode Gino, Pete, Em, and special guest Billy Rothert discuss Hades 2! We start with a special announcement from Billy and then transition into discussing the early access status of Hades 2. We talk about how tuned the game is, what mechanics we would change, and whether we're bothered by an unfinished game with so much story. We then wrap by discussing the story as it is right now and some of the differences between how Hades and Hades 2 feel to play.

After some diversions, Off the Deep End returns to its regularly scheduled fan pick to answer the pressing question of "Can a video game be too good and too normal for this podcast?" Along the way, Braden, Chris, and Gino discuss Breath of Fire III's solid mechanics, beautiful spritework, and shockingly dark story. Anime is threatened.
