My scale
1-2 (Awful, turned it off, couldn't stomach another second, completely unappealing upon viewing, don't waste your time)
3-4 (Bad, hard to stand, messy execution, poor design, barely redeemable, must have one thing going for it watch with discretion)
5-6 (Fine, okay, acceptable, indifferent, can get by with or without this material may find a gem)
7 (Good, standard for things I'd consider I really like [potentially love even if flawed], baseline for positive enjoyment, highly likely to replay from 7+)
8 (Great, standard for things I'd consider "don't miss" content, meaningful in one or multiple capacities)
9 (Amazing, love it, enthralled, standard for "can't miss" content, just shy of being a masterpiece) (9.5 is something I would give to a lot of the top tier 9's, but alas)
10 (Phenomenal, masterful, lasting impression, emotional resonance, personal favorites)

Hades (2018)
9 legendary boons out of 10
A wonderfully packaged title that provides on all fronts. Excellently voiced, rich gameplay, beautiful scenery, and enthralling story are all present. Hades' most redeemable quality is in its replayability with "one more run" a common feeling to experience. A wide and vast assortment of boons, weapons, and keepsakes you gather along the way make the journey feel fresh even in the later stages of the game with "up the ante" style conditions to make a more challenging run. Death is inescapable, but with Hades it is how you learn. It's very rewarding to conquer what cut you down on a previous run and you'll feel that throughout your progress. Occasionally the RNG can frustrate, but that hardly detracts from the overall experience. With plenty of cosmetic flare, friends to make, and heat challenges to conquer! Hades will pull you in and you'll be glad it did with a confirmed sequel in the near future.
*My first rougelike experience*
Played on PC - 84 hours - every achievement.
Looking forward to Hades II.
