For those who took the humanities/leader dialogue option with Argos, will he be more difficult to deal with now that he knows MC can outsmart him? Or will he be more respectful towards us? Is there any way to convince him not to torture Asterion? The poor guy's been through enough...
I do get the feeling that Asterion's hiding something though. Why would he go to the afterlife after death and work for and talk with Hades if Athena was intent on torturing him for all eternity? Did he do something while with Hades? Is it something Argos hinted at? All Asterion has told us so far is that he's being punished for being born a monster and his "cowardice" in the face of Theseus.
I also get the feeling that there's more to Jean than he's letting on. A *lot* more. He seems to believe in the Hotel's mission, yet Asterion has never mentioned him. He guides people to the Hotel, claims he's a deliveryman, could that be in the sense that he's delivering staff to the hotel? But why would he do that? Who set him up to do it? He doesn't look old enough to have worked with the previous masters, nor does he look like an ageless mythical beast. I have a very loose theory though, that demigods don't age like humans do and that guilt plays a major part, but I feel like that's a bit of a stretch at the moment.
I really like the music too. The Seikilos Epitaph is somewhat mournful and slow which sets the mood perfectly, and the more happy energetic music that Asterion gets whenever he happily talks is wonderful.
I also echo the stuff people have said above, I wanna see Aterion and MC's relationship develop (hopefully romantically, if he's ready for that? I'm a sucker for the big guy having a crush on the little guy), and to actually find out what happened to the Old Gods and what will happen if we try and twist the powers of the hotel to breaking point to help Asterion, against their will. Plus I kinda wanna see Asterion get protective of us if we're advanced upon by Luke...
I look forward to the new update and the ones in the future! Asterion is such a sweetheart, I don't want anything bad to happen to him!
