So a thing that is genuinely bugging me about Hades is the decision to refer to Hades as hell in places.

I've been reading a lot of Norse mythology recently. Hel, Loki's daughter, versus Hel (/Helheim), the place, can get confusing!

I mean that’s Wes’s field but it’s not going to stop me being irked when modern Greek myth adaptations do the hell thing because I know what that indexes for their audience even if it kind of works in a vacuum

Like there’s way more cultural weight to Christian defaults including “hell bad, cackling Satans go brrr” and “religion is immutable until proven otherwise” unconsciously than there is for most people consciously to “I can maybe justify this without going ‘hm yep Hades evil’”
