@@wesleyfilms The concept of "toxic masculinity" was first coined by Shepherd Bliss in connection to the Mythopoetic Men's Movement of the 1980s and 90s, which focused on self-help for men.

Feminists do talk on it, but it was made by a man, and spoke to the self-destructive ways men tried to live up to masculine ideals... that the movement and it's associated groups and activities tried to help with.

@@DwAboutItManFrDuring the Trojan war Hera wanted Hypnos to put Zeus to sleep and promised his one of the Charites Pasitha as wife so he did his thing. When Zeus woke up he was pissed but Hypnos ran to his mom Nyx and Zeus was to afraid to get revenge on him.
I never got far enough to get this scene, but I remember Zagreus getting angry at Nyx after finding out about his mother. There were all the conversations afterward between them where they talked about him meeting his mother, wanting to meet his mother, wanting to see her again, etc., and after a while I start thinking, "man, Nyx is getting no love from this dude after everything she did for him". Not that it made him look bad or anything, but I did start to feel sorry for her. Seemed like Nyx was helping Zagreus replace her, but I'm glad to see they did eventually have a talk.
I think Zagreus was going through what a lot of people who discover a biological parent also go through; it’s that desire to learn more about them and answer the question “why weren’t you in my life?” Obviously, not everyone feels that way. But there’s enough precedent for people like Zagreus to want answers, even though they had a loving parent in their life.
I never understood why in so many fiction personifications of night are so.. cruel or mischevous in a way. Night is quiet, gentle and "honest". It's the people who come out at night are dangerous.
@@gustsword6588 because in so many fictional universes inspired by greek mythology, there is actually very little respect for it.

Nighttime in ancient cultures has always been associated with fear & the unknown. It shouldn't be that much of a surprise that people of those times would associate it with negative connotations.
@@gustsword6588 Well all that's really known about Nyx in myth is that she loves her kids and is very, VERY, VERY scary. In Hades she's nice because you're a part of the family. In Heroes of Olympus Percy just almost drowned her daughter in poison.

In this situation both Persephone and Nyx are probably both great mother figures but Zagreus only knew Nyx for the better part of his life and did believe her to be his mother for that time. So technically she gets the mommy title. Or they're both equal maternal figures,who cares at this point I'm getting facetious

When it comes to different people raising and loving the same kid. People seem to forget this simple truth. "Someone else being in the kid's life isn't less for either parent, its more for the child." The more people that loves us the more we can treat any and all pain as a trifle and less of a defining part of who we are.
I beat the final boss, got the true ending, all the Infernal Arms' aspects, reunited everyone and maxed out my bond with Megaera, but while I still have to complete the epilogue, this moment here was the perfect capstone to my playthrough of Hades.

Games not an art form my a*se. I genuinely feel for these characters, in a way more so than in live action movies. Basically the way I view it, live action movie characters are fake characters in a real world while animated or book characters are real in a fake world instead. Not sure how to convey this properly...
Games give you the time to get to know the characters and worlds more intimately and at your own pace. You're not forced to go too fast or too slow with the characters and plot, it moves when you want it to. So you have all the time you want to connect. Add in amazing music, eye-catching graphics, and of course fun gameplay, and you've got yourself a way to tell stories that can change a person's entire life.
Personally I feel like The fact that Zag believed he was the son on Nyx should have had a bigger impact, like how he likely saw Hypnos and Thanatos as his brothers
@thatonearanara No, because the reason why Zag started all of that is because he felt he wasn't related to them, and there were some dialogues where he himself jokes about it 😆
Meanwhile Hypnos, an actual born son of hers, has dialogue after the 10th escape noting how Nyx ignores him. 😑 Nyx has lots of kids, but her adopted one is her favorite. 😅
I'm pretty sure Zag asks her about this and she responds by basically saying that she still cares for Hypnos greatly but feels she has to be distant since Hypnos has become too reliant on her and she wants him to mature and stand on his own two feet. She's not picking favorites she's just giving one tougher love at the moment.
Yes, I know what you taking about. Her character always seems so cold, collective, robotic and emotionless even. But here she's showing something unusual for her - and I mean love and caring part of her soul. That's really heartwarming.
Doubt it. I haven't played the game yet but from all the videos I seen. The game is paying respect and organizing a very complicated lore. Nyx being his mother refers to a version of zag lore where he was Zeus kid and he assassinated him. In one if that version Nyc save him and resurrect him. She raises as one if his kids away from Hera's eyes. Protecting him, till he becomes strong enough to survive on his own.as for the reason why she and her kids get limited scream time, Zeus fear her. She is a primordial, more powerful than the Olympians and the titans. The only reason she doesn't show up much in myths is because no one wants to mess with her or her children. Considering how faithful the game is, having her help you would mean instant victory.
@@JayJayM57 She does resurrect Zagreus and you should definitely play the game. I loved it and the only person I didn't max out on dialogue (there's A LOT) was Hypnos. 10/10 game.
This is all great but Nyx fired Dusa so i'm afraid she can't be best character. Poor Dusa, i'm glad she can finally be rehired and promoted as she deserves.
This game should have won Best Story AND Game of the Year in the 2020 Game Awards ( or, in the latter's case, lost to Ghost of Tsushima). Especially compared to the bland, formulaic and sometimes hypocritical story of TLOU2. I don't hate TLOU2 but compared to Hades and Ghost of Tsushima, it is a mid-tier game at worse.
The truth is Zagreus does have his dad Hades, his mom Persephone, his adoptive mother Nyx and his lover Megaera. I hope Nyx could protect Zagreus just as when she raised him as her adoptive son.
In addition, here are the name children of Erebus and Nyx. There are Aither (Light and Upper Air), Hemera (Day), the Moirai (Destiny): Clotho (Birth and Past), Lachesis (Life and Present), Atropos (Death and Future), Charon (Death and Bone), Thanatos (Peaceful and Gentle Death), Hypnos (Sleep), Nemesis (Punishment, Balance, and Justice), Eris (Discord and Strife), Sophrosyne (Temperance, Abstention, Self-Control, Restraint, and Discretion), Apate (Deception), Dolos (Trickery), Geras (Old Age), the Keres (Violent Death), Arai (Curse), Moros (Doom and Nothingness), Momus (Blame), Oizys (Distress), Epiphron (Prudence, Thoughtfulness, and Carefulness), and Elpis (Hope). Moreover, Nyx is also consort with Chaos and has a daughter Akhlys (Poison). Next, before Nyx adopted the Erinyes (Furies): Alecto (Angry), Megaera (Envy) and Tisiphone (Vengeance), she is consort with Uranus and has a daughter Lyssa (Madness). Finally, Nyx is consort with Cerberus and has the creature Hellhounds.
The game really did it's homework when it came to Nyx. In Zagreus' case, she is a loving mother and figure of comfort in his life. However, she's not without flaws and in many ways like when it comes to Hypnos she's an absolute distant bitch who won't even acknowledge motherhood in your presence. Two sides to the same person, both earning admiration and disdain.
Nyx isn't the stepmom, she's the mom who stepped up
😢
"Through sense of duty, she raised you. From the dark of her heart, she loves you."
She loves so many, even beyond her own children. She is mother of thousands. And would love a thousand more.

Getting this recommended on mother's day is poetic
The game really did it's homework when it came to Nyx. In Zagreus' case, she is a loving mother and figure of comfort in his life. However, she's not without flaws and in many ways like when it comes to Hypnos she's an absolute distant bitch who won't even acknowledge motherhood in your presence. Two sides to the same person, both earning admiration and disdain.
Dusa is the best girl and character.
ALSO she looks best
There was a "pet Cerberus" button, but there was no "hug nyx" button and thats why this game sucks actually
But Cerberus
Technically, she's a latina. So she cried for days after getting such a cold reply from her adopted son. :'(

Persephone could never
