Hades 2's forget-me-not mechanic is so good that I think any game with a billion resources should be taking notes

Hecate, a masked witch from Hades 2, stands with her arm outstretched as if prepared to weave a hex of darkest night.

I have a problem, folks. In any game where there are a billion resources that can filter into a million recipes, I always find myself split halfway between the actual game I want to play and some half-maintained wiki page. When Hades 2's early access began to unravel its massive list of dozens of recipes with their own constituent ingredients, I feared I'd suffer the same fate.

That's not to say I don't try, you understand. I've played Stardew Valley and printed PDFs of community centre requirements. I've taken notes while playing Disco Elysium—and generally, that's been fine. But if I need to keep track of the differences between ordinary cloth and Saintsflax or whatever, I'll bounce off your game hard.
