    There's also Thanatos and probably a few other Daimones I'm forgetting or unfamiliar with you could invoke. I'm certain there's like a dozen different Egyptian deities involved in a soul's passage to the afterlife, Anubis is just the most popular one in modern reception. It also bugs the hell out of me that "Europe" is put up alongside three countries

    Also wow, they really buffed Hermes up for Hades 2. Still haven't seen much of that game as of yet.

    The deeper cultural cut is that committing suicide by truck was both popular and almost always ruled as an accident instead of a suicide.
