0/10. Game is too lewd, Too many things you do exposes hornet's body. up attack? exposed! bind to heal? unveiled! Glide? Exhibited to everyone below! I was playing this game on the train when i first got the chance to upgrade hornet's "cloak" and did so. But did not discern that hornet would need to become fully naked to switch to her new "cloak". When i saw hornet was completely nude I had to start furiously sliking it. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my switch 2 and everyone around me saw the hornet. Now there is a whole train of men sliking it together at this one image. This is all the devs fault, they could have prevented this if they had rated the game adults only 18+ or made hornet more modest.

[stark rover]

new copypasta just dropped

[willow moat]

hornet built like a chopstick

use the free xbox game pass trial

1 month of silksong

[golden estuary]

too lewd

[royal quest]

i need help finding shakra in far fields

[young lintel]

I love how every boss is so close to a bench

[verbal jacinth]

That fight should not have taken this long
sadly everything in this fucking game deals 2 damage

[rotund frigate]

do I need to fight this guy is he mandatory because if he is im gonna die

[young lintel]

You have to

[rotund frigate]

fuck me

[spare pecan]

how does Hornet know about the Haunting? she just mentions it to some people and on the journal, but I haven’t heard anyone else talk to her about it

[young lintel]

The problem is not him. It's what comes AFTER

[rotund frigate]

I NEED MORE MOVEMENT OPTIONS BRO 😭

[spare pecan]

probably not now, leave it for later

[golden estuary]

yeah this game does not want to waste your time making you backtrack too much

[young lintel]

Go left so he can't jump because when he jumps it's over for you

[glacial violet]

I just skipped him for now, proceeded further, might go back to him now

[exotic trellis]

The bug who rescues her at the beginning after she collapses talks about it

[young lintel]

Cheese him on the left side then hit and run hit and run

[golden estuary]

but some benches are still a little far but its fine

[rotund frigate]

where can I get more movement options like a dash or something

[rugged wolf]

Yo what is a hoker

[spare pecan]

oh i must have forgotten, was it the chapel lady?

[young lintel]

Not as far as soul master bench in hollow knight like holly shit

[rugged wolf]

I'm having trouble with the collect 25 spine cores quest

[spare pecan]

round green guys that shoot spikes

[glacial violet]

its close

[rotund frigate]

cool

[rugged wolf]

ah I see, the spine core drop rates are so low lol

[spare pecan]

i thought that at first too, but you just need to hit the spikes after they’re thrown to get them

[rugged wolf]

OH MY GOODNESS THANK YOU SO MUCH

[spare pecan]

they stay at the ground for a bit, just slash them to break them

[kind pagoda]

What do yall think about the game so far

[rotund frigate]

fun

[spare pecan]

yeah no worries LOL. we’re on this together

[spare pecan]

i ate a single meal the whole day because i’ve been playing it. no way it’s good for my health but it’s good for my brain

[subtle pond]

How do you spoiler text

[rugged wolf]

I feel like Im zipping through areas too fast, less than 4 hours in and in already at far fields,but I love it so far

[glacial violet]

!spoiler (it didnt work)
like this || spoiler ||

[spare pecan]

put two pipes on each end of the message || like this

|| pipes and pipes ||

[subtle pond]

I found a person who datamined and holy shit for a ending ||she cocoons and transforms||

[kind pagoda]

Seen a lot of people that are saying that the game is incomplete I don't personally feel that way I wondered why they think that

[elder epoch]

bro 😭

i was gone for 2 minutes and look who came

[subtle pond]

He really just be anywhere huh

[rugged wolf]

probably because they are rushing through areas

[spare pecan]

you need to add spoilers to images separately too

[elder epoch]

i love sherma

[spare pecan]

please do so instead of spoiling us lol

[subtle pond]

I added a spoiler tho

To the image

[elder epoch]

wtf 😭

[spare pecan]

she really just is anywhere

how did you even manage to make her appear there lol

[spare pecan]

maybe it didn’t work for me, mb

[rugged wolf]

Ight I got the wish finished tysm

[subtle pond]

Imagine she's like a baby mode thing to where she pacifies the bosses and lets you immediately win

[broken bear]

taking a break from silksong for today, here's my first day acheivement spread

[elder epoch]

lol

[spare pecan]

this game is absolutely rocking with my fomo of missing dialogue

[elder epoch]

the power of singing will stop everything

[spare pecan]

every other image is a npc in a location i missed or something

[mild flume]

https://youtu.be/XLrCUeGGGqU?si=EInmMgfMBHYfepPl

Shakra song!!!

[broken bear]

you dont really have to fight him

i got mad with the area he's blocking and ive made significant progress without that area

[elder epoch]

||omg ocarina of time maybe?||

[noble python]

yhea

[meager badger]

||without spoiling anything (if possible) do we know which hollow knight ending is canon?||

[elder epoch]

||there isnt a 100% sure one, but there is 1 ending that would work very well||

[elder epoch]

||team cherry said all endings are technically canon i think||

[subtle pond]

||Just know it involves the knight||

[orchid smelt]

||well, this big dude with a club is smackin' me around||

[opal beacon]

Guys, huge spoiler alert, Silksong is after ||dream no more|| ending

[mint stratus]

Y’all think hornet and the knight waking up on the bench when they die has to do with their ||wyrm blood giving them foresight into possible futures where they die||?

[opal beacon]

I watched one ending

Please do not watch like i did

[jagged prairie]

i will not

[opal beacon]

Great

Graig actually spoiled this years ago

[simple anchor]

||skong||

[opal beacon]

Graig is former lead playtester

[rotund frigate]

Hollow Knight Silksong spoiler: ||you play as Hornet||

[opal beacon]

😱

[lethal orbit]

Just beat hunters March, my advice Is to take your time with the pogo type jumps and really time them

[vale osprey]

not this spoiler 😭

[opal beacon]

How many acts in Silksong?

[pastel drum]

oh god clothless hornet is cursed

[opal beacon]

Bruh

[keen mica]

very, very interesting

[woeful rain]

|| FUCKING BEAST CHAPEL I AM KILLING MYSELF ||

[willow moat]

time to go to sleep, great first day

[spare pecan]

does anyone know how to fight Moorwing now that the Flea Caravan is there?

[uneven grotto]

There is a route farm for silksong or not yet ?

[karmic sundial]

||anyone talked about whether gahlias are the same species as Isma? the mask/face looked similar to me||

[dense yew]

||can someone send me the haunted bellmoor cutscene? the one right after the fly boss|| i skipped it while triyng to screen record by accident

[fierce rose]

Do we even know how many acts there are now?

[keen mica]

here, i clipped it when i went there

[dense yew]

omg thank you so muhc you're a lifesaver

i looked everywhere online and coundnt find it

[glad topaz]

Ok so, something I’m wondering is how hornet isn’t void, correct? ||is there an explanation for why theres like “void” particles falling after you break her silk cocoon? If there is an actual reason, just replay with yes and if it’s spoilers then spoil mark it pls||

[hexed wharf]

guys i just woke up is silksong real?

[orchid smelt]

Yee, finally

[subtle pond]

I forgot to mention silksong broke every website selling it, steam, xbox, playstation, Nintendo, hell even PAYPAL

[gilded sapphire]

maybe she is

[glad topaz]

Well she’s the daughter of the pale king and herrah, herrah isn’t, and ig when you kill the kingsmould in hk they also have the void-ish particles, so she might just be like the pale king and the kingsmould

Well, I think that’s how the kingsmould look when they die, I haven’t killed one in a good while

[reef jetty]

Buying silksong was the final boss when steam kept crashing

[thin lintel]

[errant shuttle]

Omg I can't wait how many hours

[exotic plume]

[vivid kernel]

Why does my hornert not say "SHAW" i think she is broken

[exotic plume]

[chrome reef]

confirmed sequel

[errant mica]

[foggy fractal]

||based on seemingly datamined endings on youtube yes its a sequel|| GIGA SPOILERS 😱

[chrome reef]

yeah it’s pretty obvious lmao

[errant mica]

yayyyy! good! im too scared to watch the endings

[static cradle]

I could kill that thing

[chrome reef]

already? damn people quick

[errant mica]

too much spoilers for me! but just the knowledge its a sequel makes me excited

[spare pecan]

anyone else did the quest where you ||build a bridge on bonebottom|| and then broke the ||bridge|| immediately expecting it to ||reappear||?
i feel guilty now

[chrome reef]

nope but thanks for telling me i’ll make sure not to

[spare pecan]

it’s a little small ||bridge|| over ||the hole to the first area||

[chrome reef]

i see

[uneven grotto]

Huh ?

[spare pecan]

he mentions it’s there to make sure ||pilgrims can get over safely and i fucking ruined it #lmao||

[chrome reef]

it’ll prob come back

[spare pecan]

hopefully

[cinder kayak]

chat is this real

[chrome reef]

golem is smushed

[cunning nebula]

am i not supposed to ask for any help yet? im jus confused how to get out of an area

[mighty trellis]

They couldn’t put a save point closer to the last judge boss right 😭

[exotic plume]

idk how to explain but you can unlock and change your attack classes

[glass fjord]

when

[exotic plume]

and Im in act 2 now

[flat palm]

I am seeing a lot of cutscene spoilers popping on YouTube, but those couldn't possibly have been achieved so fast right? Have people datamined the endings?

[glass fjord]

Oh

I’m still in act 1 im in ff

[exotic plume]

just rn you get the poggo earlier

[glass fjord]

in ff

?

[lucid dirge]

what area

[exotic plume]

you want to know where I found it?

[river walrus]

I am excited for this fellow’s realization XD

[mighty oyster]

||Hunters March sucks ||

I’ve perished the most in this area right now

[glass fjord]

I’m asking is it in ff

[chrome reef]

well i assume he comes back to life from the trailer lmao

[exotic plume]

what is ff?

[chrome reef]

naked hornet (spoilers)

[glass fjord]

||far fields||

[icy sinew]

Thats very clearly ||a spell version of that thing in DeepNest|| right?

[exotic plume]

||you need somthing from there but its not there||

[mighty oyster]

I failed so much in here

[chrome reef]

where is that?

bro lacy is actually so fun i wanna fight her again, they need godhome dlc now😭

[mighty oyster]

This area

[mighty oyster]

Who knows maybe their is one

[glass fjord]

||if it’s drifters i have it||

[exotic plume]

its one of these this is the standart one

[foggy oriole]

So worth it

[glass fjord]

What does this mean

[exotic plume]

hunter

you have hunter since the start

[glass fjord]

||where do i find it||

[exotic plume]

inventroy second tab on the left

[glass fjord]

Kk

[chrome reef]

damn he was actually really cool

loved the concept pretty easy boss too

[upbeat yoke]

as a reminder, lore channels are spoilers allowed

[mighty trellis]

I need a save point close to the last judge

It’s even hard get to the boss 😭

[exotic plume]

yoooo

[signal dock]

I'm scared to touch upon the silksong servers bc I'm a bit behind but ima js be careful

[chrome reef]

lmao if ur scared then don’t

if you need help just look up a yt tutorial

[foggy fractal]

||just defeated the gay robots, didn't expect to get emotional at the end|| boss spoilers

[exotic plume]

you finished the game?

[reef jetty]

32:9 ultra mod on mobile

[exotic plume]

I just died by a cold in game

[foggy fractal]

no lmao not yet

[peak saddle]

This is my last attempt... does anyone know how to fix this startup error?

[orchid smelt]

||so, is riding the flea caravan early a bad idea?||

Because, I just experienced horror

[hexed wharf]

are you playing it rn?

[mighty oyster]

Definitely need help with this boss but imma keep trying

[chrome reef]

yup

[exotic plume]

where is this?

[chrome reef]

just what i was gonna ask

[mighty oyster]

Very right of Hunters March

||You gotta do some parkour to get to
This mini boss ||

[plucky arrow]

does anyone know if there are any benches close to ||last judge||? im struggling because the closest one i can find is at the stag

[exotic plume]

I think its the closest

the way isnt that hard tho

[jaunty elm]

theres actually no way I went into ||hunters march|| lost 300 roses and then I go to || deep docks|| and everythings asking for roses are we serious 😭

[sweet quail]

Guys I'm stuck in far fields in the bench with the NPC I can't get back to docks and there's no stag station and I can't fly with my cloak is there anyway of getting back I searched everywhere

[chrome reef]

bro look at this dumbass😭😭😭😭

[chrome reef]

you have to do her quest and you get a new ability

[sweet quail]

Thanks

[chrome reef]

slap the spikes the moss guys spew out

[carmine blade]

Nuu ❤️

[exotic plume]

I explored all of this and I cant find a map 🥲

[mighty oyster]

Return to the Marrow town and the map lady will be there

[exotic plume]

im in act 2 idk if the maps still work the same caus the first map I found on a board

[gilded beacon]

Has anyone else get into the || white wing ||

[sudden atlas]

How many acts are there?

How far have people gotten?

[exotic plume]

look

[jaunty elm]

why is there so many shop people in deep dock but like no sources of roses

[exotic plume]

it wont get better..

[jaunty elm]

😭

[chrome reef]

chapel of the reaper is such a tuff name

[mighty oyster]

Gfhjbdfh? Were you able to meet her in the first area?

[exotic plume]

I found a new map

[warm briar]

Y’all think there’s someone nice to gift me ss?

[daring pine]

Do the sounds of these bells remind anyone else of the sounds of the Godhome? The end of boss battles were also signaled by bells by the Godseekers, were they not?

[hexed wharf]

No

[hidden gazelle]

|| What do you mean? I completed the quest but haven’t gone back to them yet ||

[warm briar]

Dang

[gilded beacon]

Has anyone reached the citadel?

[exotic plume]

I think Im close

nvm

[exotic plume]

is it this?

[gilded beacon]

Yeah

Have you gotten into || the white wing? ||

[exotic plume]

Idk

Im not reading any names

[gilded beacon]

I don't see in your map so probably no

[exotic plume]

ok

wtf

[rotund frigate]

i hate those fucking ants so much

oh my god

[exotic plume]

woa I got a new main screen background

[cosmic geyser]

Has anyone gotten to chapter 2 yet

[exotic plume]

me

[cosmic geyser]

Is there lore significance to the chapter system?

Or are they just benchmarks

[exotic plume]

I think benchmark

[meager drum]

why do birds have rosaries?

[thin pier]

this guy has a fidget spinner

[rigid scarab]

Im pretty sure the bell beast is just if massive moss charger wanted to work for uber

[void raven]

In the bestiary hornet refers to the possessed by string bugs as “haunted”

Interesting

I like how you can tell the different between sentient bugs and beast like ones based on if they drop beads

[tidal granite]

same with the wish where you collect pilgrim's shawls

[covert tusk]

I’m not sure fully yet who did it or why, but I think the same people who kidnapped Hornet, ||kidnapped and groomed Widow to play the haunted silk for the Citadel and keep it afloat for whatever reason, given the needles and weaver like appearance ||

[mighty oyster]

Maybe they’re this worlds crows

[flat hearth]

Is anyone else stuck on the Craw Lake encounter?

I feel like it shouldn't be that hard but it's kicking my fucking ass

[wraith stirrup]

i feel like the flying boss in hunter march definitely gonna get nerfed, deal 2 hearts and is tanky af

[stray zinc]

Anyone know how to get second key? Used the one in the town to open the door to ||wormways|| but now i see theres another door below the blacksmith

[void raven]

Way too many enemies deal 2 damage

[wraith stirrup]

yeah feel like some enemies/bosses gonna get nerfed in term of damage

[void raven]

In hollow knight the only double damage stuff was the big bois in dreaming city and the exploding bats

and some dream bosses

[glass fjord]

Genuinely where are the invincibility frames in the game

[void raven]

It’s been a fun challenge so far for sure

The bird assholes in greymoor have been the hardest for me so far

that ai is crazy

[native cave]

my main issue is the inconsistency of the bounces on the red ball things xD

[void raven]

Took me tens of deaths and regoing through hunters march to get kinda used to the angled pogo

[candid briar]

bro im ngl this game makes hollow knight bosses look like fodder

[void raven]

The bosses have been easier than some of the enemies for me lol

none have taken me more than 4 attempts

[candid briar]

i died to ||lace|| like 6 times though like 3 of those times were me getting parried into lava

moorwing is rocking my shit though

not being able to directly hit below me is so frustrating

[void raven]

I haven’t got to that yet think that boss is literally the next one I have to do

[carmine blade]

Call it silk issue, but this was the worst region, on gang

[void raven]

went back to bone bottom for side quests

No benches anywhere in hunters march smh

[candid briar]

died in like 10 seconds against this guy and hes not even that complicated

i think the real problem is that damn near everything does like 2 hearts

[carmine blade]

There is one....

And apparently, there is a ||switch to turn that mechanism that kills you off in the fucking wall||

[carmine blade]

Real

[glass fjord]

I think ||hunters march|| would be easier if i frames were longrr

[carmine blade]

Way too many things do 2 damage, that getting another mask doesnt even do anything to you

[candid briar]

cant wait to go from 5 masks to 6
now i can... continue to take 3 hits

still having fun i just think its insane

[frigid stone]

nah the run back and fight with judge. The run back is obnoxious. Makes each attempt take 2-3x as long.

[candid briar]

ngl gathering rosemary is kinda difficult

way harder than getting geo

i got all these shard things but they capped out at 400 and i have no idea what they're for

"Request aid in battle?"

THE GALL
THE AUDACITY

[wraith stirrup]

for tools

[pure perch]

I think I did a sequence break, but not sure if its intentional or not? The boss is ||Moorwing|| in the area ||Graymore||. Instead of approaching him from the intended direction, I ended up using the item ||Simple Key|| to get to the area ||Worm tunnels or whatever, from the area above the first town||. I approached went through the ||worm tunnels or whatever they are called|| and made my way up and around to ||the place after Moorwing||, and now the boss won't spawn again. Also, I found an NPC who has a quest related, and I got to talk to him after sequence breaking but now I can't get him back 🙁

[candid briar]

i cant tell if i just have a skill issue or most people generally agree that silksong is a difficulty step up

[prisma fiber]

Same thing happened to me hoping it doesn’t cost 100%

[native cave]

Im not finding it that bad

[pure perch]

Did you run into that NPC again?

The sequence I experiencied: I first found ||The Boss Moorwing|| then I went exploring and found the NPC ||Zazu and his bug|| and told them omg I already found ||Moorwing||, then I did the above sequence break, then found the NPC again ||Zazu|| waiting to start the boss fight.

[prisma fiber]

Nah I talked to him and said to join him in battle but then I went to the door and through shellwood and now he’s gone from his area

Never saw ||moorwing||

[pure perch]

Ok so same as me then, I thought it was weird I broke the boss battle and then found him asking me to join him in the fight... that never happened

Ty for spoilering, I'm trying to be cautious to lol

[prisma fiber]

It just seems too big of an oversight for them to leave on because of you just save up rosaries you could be there before far fields even

[pure perch]

I think I had to do a jump off a bugs back to make the ledge to get there

[prisma fiber]

I just dashed jump

[candid briar]

one thing thats getting me is that some of these attacks deal like ||one mask, lock you in place, and then deal another||

is there something im missing to try to get around this

the gap makes me feel like im supposed to have something or do something to prevent the second

[pure perch]

Dash out? There is an item that provides the ability ||To avoid critical damage, but breaks|| you can get, maybe that might help

[candid briar]

forgot i had charms 🗿

[pure perch]

Wait until you realize (charm mechanic) ||That there are memory stones and you can equip multiples of things >_>||

[mighty trellis]

Funny how the drill bugs are so much annoying as common enemies than as boss

[candid briar]

im going to become far more violent playing this game

moorwing feels so simple and yet im losing again and again

[slate atlas]

i'm fairly confident that the boss beastfly is worse than moorwing

you can at least skill and patience your way out of moorwing

[mighty trellis]

Hate minions on boss fights, those are so annoying

[slate atlas]

i feel like silksong's difficulty is an actual genuinely massive detriment against it

[candid briar]

im gonna cry
we're so back

the crying is not of joy, do not be confused

i dont want to be harsh but wow i really do hate that the pogo is diagonal

[mighty trellis]

There is a way to change that fortunately

[slate atlas]

everything does double damage and has double health, currency is absurdly scarce, and enemy/boss patterns are on par with og hollow knight's most unfair patterns

boss beastfly is literally ascended collector + gruz mother

[candid briar]

i have to agree witht he currency issue
not all enemies drop rosemary which is kind of a problem when the primary currency is rosemary

[vocal crypt]

anyone else translate the paper from the dead guy in bonebottom

pretty insightful lore-wise if anyone actually cares about lore in the lore channel

[candid briar]

like you expect me to get like 80 of these things just for one item and its a little 🗿

[mighty trellis]

The final boss of the part 1 literally is more difficult than the hollow knight and you have like base mask

[slate atlas]

most benches and all fast travel points are things you need rosaries for too

[candid briar]

oh right i have to dump 30 every time i want to use a bench

[celest flax]

i Was wondering if anyone had any tips for the moorwing fight actually?

[candid briar]

and then lose 80 when i want to open a fast travel area

[celest flax]

ive been stuck for maybe 2 hours on it :(

[slate atlas]

try to keep a distance from it, and let it come to you

trying to stay close and burst it down is how you eat a face full of sawblades

[candid briar]

strangely his sawblades dont hit me
usually because i can just float above them

whats getting me is him swapping between the two very quickly

[slate atlas]

and yeah, abuse the airtime you get from the upgraded cloak

or from healing

[candid briar]

i need closer benches

[slate atlas]

if you go up from that arena, there's a bench

and the only thing between that bench and the arena is a scissor enemy

idr if it's accessible from that side, though

[candid briar]

fuck it we're going into the ||chapel of the reaper||

that name does not spark joy

[mighty trellis]

That one is easier than the boss Hahha no worries

[slate atlas]

that place ain't bad

[candid briar]

i died

[celest flax]

it might not be, im using the bench from halfway home

[mighty trellis]

The other one on the full right is the real pain

[celest flax]

unless im missing something ofc

[slate atlas]

well, not bad for silksong standards

i suggest going through there and then rematching moorwing

there's an upgrade that helps with range and sustainability there

[candid briar]

why

[slate atlas]

pogo those guys

[candid briar]

STOP PARRYING

[slate atlas]

they're pieces of shit, but they're the only enemy you can decently pogo in this game

[willow lake]

Head up I just got soft locked there

[slate atlas]

lucky

i want to find a softlock, all i found was an enemy pogo into an impossible to win miniboss enemy encounter

[candid briar]

everything is fine

[little glen]

I wish i could be playing right now omfg

[spare pendant]

The craziest thing I know is that weavers ||came from Pharloom||, which I'm sure is common knowledge

[mighty trellis]

My god the two moss mothers boss is so annoying, it’s raining junk and minions

[alpine field]

Hello people, it was propably already talked about but i wanted to mention how cool it is, that you basically are able to get all the abilities from the hornet boss from HK, showing that silksong is a prequal, in wich we discover a part of hornets past

[candid briar]

i think its a sequel

[mighty trellis]

It’s confirmed sequel

[alpine field]

real

[candid briar]

she says she lost her strength, so what she's capable of now is what she was supposed to be capable of before

[spare pendant]

hornet also explicitly calls back to the events of hollow knight in act 2

[candid briar]

this game is going to get me violent

[alpine field]

ok, that makes sense too

[candid briar]

WHERE DO I GET THE DOWN POGO PLEASE

[alpine field]

must have missed that or i am not as far

[spare pendant]

she basically just shits on higher beings

[candid briar]

hornet no

are my attacks slower i cant tell...

[slate atlas]

try attacking downwards in the air

[candid briar]

OHHHHHH

LETS GOOOO

[mighty trellis]

The last boss of act 1 is kicking my ass so hard is not normal

[candid briar]

Okay i gotta admit its a bit stranger now

not bad but strange

[mighty trellis]

You can get another one when you get the wall jump

[candid briar]

there is like this short moment when you stop mid air

[mighty trellis]

This one let you do regular down hits hahah

[candid briar]

feels like i got monkey's pawed here
||i can downslash but its sort of slow so against faster enemies like a boss it just misses||

this plan hinges so thoroughly on the floating

[little glen]

Do you mean the crest?

[carmine blade]

Is there any differnce between reaper and hunter crests? Apart from attacking slower

Lowkey i feel like reaper is useless

[candid briar]

i got the reaper one ye

[little glen]

I like that one

[candid briar]

it gives more silk if you want to spam i suppose

[little glen]

I want to get more though, its a really cool system

[little glen]

You have entirely sifferent attackd do it can be kinda handy

[carmine blade]

Due to the slow attack speed moorwing took me like 30 tries

[little glen]

I just switched to hunter

||reaper crest|| was ass for that boss

[carmine blade]

I was too stubborn and didnt wanna go back and forth

[honest bane]

She geniuenly stabs the hell out of him

[thorny crescent]

can someone buy silksong for me plz

[candid briar]

i got him
I GOT HIM

[earnest carbon]

Is there any alternate route out of the right side of the chorus boss it's basically locked me in here

[thorny crescent]

u got me a copy of silksong?

[carmine blade]

Do any of yall use the running attack

[carmine blade]

Theres a quest to get a new outfit for hornet to fly the wind currents

[earnest carbon]

Yeah I did that and now I can leave

But the golem is too difficult

[carmine blade]

Theres no other way, but the chorus boss

[jolly trout]

I actually found that thanks to the proper downswing ||reaper|| made ||moorwing|| far far easier once i learned patterns.

[earnest carbon]

And I don't have the lava charm

[jolly trout]

nah the boss im stuck on is that damn ||Sister Spinner|| or whatev the fuck her name is at the top of ||Shellwood||

[coral pagoda]

oh my god ||splinter sister|| i hate her

[jolly trout]

The chorus boss was so much fun for me

[coral pagoda]

she would be so easy for me EXCEPT the part where she starts ||spawning things in??? why. why.||

[mighty trellis]

You can one shot them whit the spell

[jolly trout]

yupp thats the part i got to and then i was like ya know what? ton of places i havent explored, ima go check them out

[jolly trout]

see that would be great, but i suck and use all my silk to heal

[coral pagoda]

i don’t have ||thread storm|| and lining them up to hit with the other one is kinda a pain in my ass . i’m trying to find the prior mentioned skill now

[carmine blade]

You will have to eventually visit them again

Your suffering isnt over yet

[jolly trout]

it's only suffering if im not having fun xD

[coral pagoda]

this too tbh i’m ass at this game. i’m still having fun! but admittedly, i suck

[jolly trout]

i wasn't expecting to be able to play this for a while so im happy

though i did grab a couple mods just to make my life easier. yayyy compass always on!

[mighty trellis]

That boss is actually so damn easy compared to the final one of the act hahaha

[carmine blade]

Oh my god, I found the third Mossberry, finally

[coral pagoda]

im bad at games the only bosses thus far that have been completely 100% easy for me are the very first one and ||fourth chorus|| ☠️

[jolly trout]

i had all three of those by the time i got to the druid xD

[candid briar]

i feel like this game suffers from a cost problem

[carmine blade]

I found Lace pretty easy aswell

[blissful glacier]

there's gotta be a wall jump that im just missing somewhere right

[jolly trout]

question. are the ||fleas|| like the grubs in the first game?

[coral pagoda]

all i need is to find ||thread storm…|| wherever the hell that is….

[carmine blade]

Pretty sure, yeah

[mighty trellis]

Exactly

[candid briar]

rosemary feel too rare to acquire fo rhow much you need it

[coral pagoda]

tbh that’s fair she wasn’t super hard for me either, and she was a really fun boss!

[carmine blade]

Theres a way to get around 40-ish in around a minute in one region

[jolly trout]

thought so thanks... ||when i realized they're a literal dang flea circus|| i laughed so hard

[coral pagoda]

i giggled when i learned the ||leaders name is mooshka or whatever|| they’re so silly

[carmine blade]

Forgot the name, but its the one with Moorwing

[mighty trellis]

Fleas having wings don’t make sense haha, they should be scorpion flies instead so hahah

[jolly trout]

||Greymoor||

[coral pagoda]

i swear on gods name if ||thread storm|| is what’s past this stupid ||gauntlet of birds in greymoor|| i will start pulling my hair out i cannot for the life of me get through that thing

[carmine blade]

Yah that

[edgy nebula]

im stuck on ||moorwing|| i hate it sm

[carmine blade]

You can post spoilers here, even without the spoiler

[coral pagoda]

frankly this bird gauntlet is giving me more trouble than moorwing was /s

[jolly trout]

also he's completely unhelpful but i love that you can get that bug rider dude to fight moorwing with you

[coral pagoda]

the birds . they’re endless. why are there so many birds.

[carmine blade]

Bird gauntlet took me 5 tries for some reason, but Moorwing.....

[edgy nebula]

fuuuck i hate these worm pilgrims

[coral pagoda]

bird gauntlet is going to take me way more than 5 tries i fear. i suck

[edgy nebula]

i just took 3 masks of damage trying to run past one to get to moorwing

[carmine blade]

Moorwing took me atleast 30 minutes to beat, maybe even more 😭

[jolly trout]

bait their ground dash then jump over.

[coral pagoda]

is there even anything useful past this. is this even worth it. why do i try just to suffer

[carmine blade]

I dont remember what was there, uhh

But there will be balloons after you can pogo up, just like the thing in Hunters March

[edgy nebula]

moorwing and these 0 windup aimbotting sawblades

[jolly trout]

since apparently ||thread storm|| is available before the ||splinter|| fight... can someone tell me where? cause i looked everywhere i thought. ||unless it's in the wormways||

[jolly trout]

i know the exact attack you're talking about, the two ground ones right?

[edgy nebula]

yeah, but also the upgraded one where he throws two sawblades instead of just one

[jolly trout]

yupp. do not go in for the punish. jump the first then back up for the second. it has a set range

[coral pagoda]

sighhh okay i guess that’s useful i’ll keep trying

[edgy nebula]

good lord i think i hate everything about this boss

you think you can punish him after he dashes at you, but then you get hit with the circular saw

[mighty trellis]

The two mosh mother boss fights drives me crazy, I will try again the final boss of the act instead hahah

[edgy nebula]

i did lace first try and chorus second how is this four times as tough

[austere edge]

Based on this conversation is there a boss rush mode?

[edgy nebula]

no

[jolly trout]

chorus took me a few tries but thats cause my controller died like halfway through the third phase and i lost my rythm lol

[edgy nebula]

atleast not thwt ive gotten to yet

[austere edge]

If they eventually add one I hope The Knight becomes a boss since God home had exclusive enemies not in the original game

[jolly trout]

i would love a fight with the Knight

and zote. let me kill him again

please team cherry

[austere edge]

I feel it could happen considering you can fight the nail masters and the Hornet nosk exists in Hollow Knight

[proper mason]

Did anyone notice that ||fourth chorus|| opening scream is really similar to radiance scream

[edgy nebula]

moorwing actually has me tweaking stop this aimbot 💔💔💔

hardest boss in the game so far, might be a worse experience than hunters march

WHEN do i get to the good stuff.. i wanna fight the last judge and sharpe my goat, trobbio even

[austere edge]

I dont think I've gotton far enough to know what that is yet

[jolly trout]

has anyone else quit out in the bell town btw?

[coral pagoda]

it’s official my sorry ass is never beating this bird gauntlet

[thorny crescent]

Time to ascend

[jolly trout]

you can do it, just take a break, clear your head, and come back to it. death cycling makes everything harder.

everything seems wayyyy harder when you get super frustrated

[young lintel]

Did anyone finish act 1 yet ?

[candid briar]

okay so this game is hard

[marble ridge]

Do anyone knows, what "Act 1" means?

[candid briar]

the story consists of multiple parts

[marble ridge]

Oh

are all the acts out?

[trail stone]

Hello! Does somebody want to help a poor student get Silksong on Steam? After paying for my English exam I'm almost broke. Thanks in advance!

[candid briar]

probbaly...?

Acts are a sort of story organization system

[dire flame]

Yall are gonna kill me but I haven't finished Hollow Knight yet, is there anything revelant I need to know? Idc about spoilers and I feel a little lost lore wise

[marble ridge]

yeah, but when I saw it I was like (Idk if this is a good comparission) is it like Deltarune, where you have chapter 1-2-ect, and only one is released?

[candid briar]

iirc they said silksong wont require any knowledge from hollow knight

presumably at best there will be subtle nods to events before but not required

[marble ridge]

Or like lore reasons

[marble ridge]

thxxx

[jolly trout]

no the entire game is currently out

the acts are just marked by big story points i would assume

[dire flame]

Oh cool, still, if someone could explain how the story connects it would be nice

[vapid gull]

does anyone know how many acts there are yet?

[candid briar]

well it comes after (presumably)
pretty sure we're not really going to be getting hollow knight related information so there is not really a "connect"

[coral pagoda]

there are probably 3 acts but every time someone complains about the difficulty level team cherry adds a newer harder act

[candid briar]

its an event that happens to one of the characters after the events of the other game in an entirely different area

||pretty sure in the opening cutscene we see heavy winds pushing against them through a gate, which i assume is the door that we cant really get through in HK since it blows us back even with crystal heart||

or at least they found another way around (which honestly is probably more likely, since thats what the knight did before HK started)

[old hedge]

has anyone figured oout if this is a sequel or prequel yet, im convinced its a sequel

[carmine blade]

Game hasnt been out for even a day, people havent finished playing yet

[old hedge]

yea but when hornet ||literally talks about the events in hallownest ||i think it sort of gives us an idea

[young lintel]

Sequel confirmed

[old hedge]

cant wait for mossbag to start cooking

[young lintel]

I went it YouTube and I got spoiled about the final boss

The video had like 3 views it's like the universe want to give me spoilers so bad 😭

[candid briar]

excuse my language but what kind of asshole you gotta be to start releasing spoilers in your thumbnail on the day of the game release

[carmine blade]

Das why I am avoiding all social media at all costs

Sorry r/Silksong, but no spoilers

Opened youtube for a second.

Hollow Knight Silksong all endings

Mfw

[thorny crescent]

First tried moss mother is that good?

[carmine blade]

Its the very first boss with like 1 attack

[jolly trout]

But hey. if it makes you feel good to have done it then good job!

i actually died to her bc i was still getting used to the dive pogo

[carmine blade]

Hunter march pogos suck

[bitter osprey]

How can I get Shakra in Bone Bottom?

[candid briar]

i better see hundreds of shakra fan art 😔

[carmine blade]

Shakras singing is so nice

[thorny crescent]

Is it?

[candid briar]

not losing is good yes
go forth
it gets worse

[old hedge]

highkey doubt its even real, they wouldve had to somehow speedrun the game on release or extract all the unity assets which both take time for a game that just came out

[wraith stirrup]

Dataminer

[old hedge]

It was an in game screenshot he saw im pretty sure

So not just a sprite or whatever tc uses

[little glen]

They didnt specify

And all versions of a character you see in a 2d game is a sprite, those sprites are on a sprite sheet, and you can very easily find said sprite sheet on your computer if you have the game installed as it is nessecerray for the game to run

[old hedge]

They're compiled into unity, and doing the compositing work the thumbnail (im guessing he saw) takes more than a few hours if you JUST got the sheet

The uploader probably made it before release and dropped it after

[brisk plaza]

are you talking about ||the winds to the left of kingdoms edge||?

[young lintel]

I pray it's not real

[remote swan]

whats a vertical save? i saw someone talking about it

[sullen heath]

guys how to comlete ||The Terrible Tyrant|| isnt it ||big mace guy in marrow|| i already kill it but got a quest now

[candid briar]

i think so yes

its been a while since ive seen the map but im pretty sure its kingdom's edge?

its at like the very top left of hallownest

idk why we're spoilering that, its part of HK 😭

[brisk plaza]

..
oh yeah

[candid briar]

and it doesnt have a name either
actually i dont even think they mention it in game
it just kinda does that

[little glen]

I really like tha5 area, it gives me blasphemous vibes idkw

I really like the area in skong atleast

[candid briar]

cant even retweet silksong fanart cuz i'd be spreading spoilers

[little glen]

Damn, thats ass

[candid briar]

and they've gotten to work indeed...

my precious...

||shakra|| i love you 💕

[brisk plaza]

to loop back to this (yap from someone who obviously hasn't finished siso btw), but hearing all the yap abt "no if you leave the kingdom youre lky fucked the only reason youre not frothing at the bit and acting like an animal is because of our glorious pale king" to there very obviously being other bug civilizations doing fine and dandy makes me wonder like. once again how good of a person PK was because while im sure he contributed that pretty obviously seems like at most a half-truth. the deities in both games are so fascinating to me

[candid briar]

i think the radiance was present before the pale king so them going like "ah yes he gave them sanity" is just him staving off the radiance

[brisk plaza]

im not sure how coherent i sound like obviously he established hallownest and his blessing likely made great contributions to their civilization but from what i recall his presence/blessing was like directly equated to bugs having sentience and or self-awareness when even in hollow knight there's several micro-civilizations (ie mantis tribe hive and im pretty sure the weavers) who do not fall under that category. thats what im talking about

[wraith stirrup]

He's like Fidel Castro, clearly love his country but also not a great guy overall

[candid briar]

basically hallownest got dually fucked the radiance and pale king

their sense of mind in the hands of someone who's... dumb

https://tenor.com/view/2d-platformer-hollow-knight-metroidvania-platformer-sawblades-gif-25671187

for what purpose

[wraith stirrup]

Torture

[wraith stirrup]

Also white palace at 8 masks

[candid briar]

the idea of silksong having something like that but with hornet's movement

path of pain

[brisk plaza]

i feel like its not made obvious enough to alot of people that the shit between pk + the radiance (to me at least) was extremely petty and they dragged entire civilizations into their cat fight. neither are good "people" and i wouldnt really count them as benevolent either when ultimately even if pk thought he was doing the "right" thing it was still fairly. self-serving

[brisk plaza]

if there's a siso PoP id actually go rabid

[wraith stirrup]

Road of Torment 🗣️ 🔥

[remote swan]

is ss a prequel or a sequel

[candid briar]

sequel

im going to bed i have work unfortunately

[wraith stirrup]

Both (I'm only 5 hours into the game)

[candid briar]

gn

[remote swan]

wait what

[trail stone]

Hello! Does somebody want to help a poor student get Silksong on Steam? After paying for my English exam I'm almost broke. Thanks in advance!

[stray zinc]

The fly boss doing 2 damage is so annoying. 3 hits and you're done

[mellow pewter]

Im pretty sure there was this one bit were she kinda mentioned the infection

[little glen]

||moorwing||?

[stray zinc]

Ya

[little glen]

He can be kinda ass, i didnt really attack him exceot for the swoop where i pogod and he died kinda easily

[tacit bridge]

Schrodinger's sequel

[half pawn]

My theory for silksong is that every being's living source is silk like soul in hollow knight and the people of the citadel can control silk with song.

[midnight vault]

Maybe pale king got inspired by farloom's tower if you know you know

[brisk plaza]

imo the silk = soul, as in its made up of soul. itd make more sense to me that soul itself is concentrated as silk then it being its own separate life source. soul is quite literally what has been established to make up part of what bugs are and it seems odd for that to he a hallownest only thing

[gentle aspen]

silk isn’t made of soul

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/986377489662234654/1413448764894740500/SPOILER_65A3566D-A2A3-447C-AF58-7DA77B55E959.png?ex=68bbf83e&is=68baa6be&hm=c79e3e864e29f0fa30ded8d4128829f49d317ec68b916214d5d4b076dec04302&

[verbal laurel]

What if hornet is not saying her famous voice lines like shaw because the knight died

[gentle aspen]

anyways confirmed hornet doesn’t require food

[brisk plaza]

any elaboration or is that all you're going to leave me w 😭

[gentle aspen]

Hornet’s silk and soul are inseparably bound, her lifeforce tied to her thread

If they were one and the same this would be a useless statement to make

[crimson aurora]

any tips to beat this MOTHER FUCKER?

[young lintel]

Bro ant area is path of pain but so early

I keep dying

Is there a bench close or do I need to advance alot ?

[carmine blade]

Oh don't worry!!

There are no benches.

Good luck

[young lintel]

https://tenor.com/view/shocked-face-shock-surprised-surprise-monkey-gif-16328898

[carmine blade]

There is, one singular bench in the whole area, but I will not reveal anything

[young lintel]

I'm gonna kms

[carmine blade]

It's gonna be way funnier when you find the bench, trust

[crimson aurora]

if u think thats horrible its because u didnt reach this💔💔💔 (i also suffered in the ant area)

[young lintel]

I thought the unknown skull boss was the hard part

[carmine blade]

Theres a bench, or rather, respawn point closer to the boss

[young lintel]

It turned out the boss was saving me from this struggle

[carmine blade]

But it will change your crest (attacks)

[crimson aurora]

wdym?

[carmine blade]

Go to the little door above the your last death

When you complete the challenge in there, you'll get the ability to change your crests, and thus also attacks, and you will be closer

To change crest, sit at bench

[terse wadi]

Lmao, I broke something

Apparently talking to Shankra while your rosarie toll bench is rising it just gets stuck in the rising and sinking animation

[distant plaza]

does requesting aid in battle help progress some quest or not?

[stray zinc]

Lol ive died more times in the fight room in hunters march than i ever have on a hollowknight boss

[distant plaza]

same xD

[muted forum]

OK so this is probably a weird question, i have 0 knowledge bout hk/ss but got interested bc of all the ss posting on my tl. I want to watch vids about ss lore (bc i like lore) but do I need to know about hk lore (or watch hk gameplay atleast) before that?

[stray zinc]

I'm debating even going in again.

[young lintel]

@carmine blade please I'm losing hope just tell me where the bench is 😭

[young lintel]

I'm trying to go through but no save points

[trail stone]

Hello! Does somebody want to help a poor student get Silksong on Steam? After paying for my English exam I'm almost broke. Thanks in advance!

[keen moss]

Does Hornet ever say “Shaw” in this game? Or her other HK voice lines?

[young lintel]

THE BENCH IS A TRAAAAP

[short quiver]

dude, is the path to the ||last judge|| absolute hell or im dogwater at plataforming?

[faint laurel]

How do i mark spoilers?

[short quiver]

with ||example|| ||example||

[small cave]

You can disarm the bench trap by ||going through the fake wall on the left in that room. ||

[stark rover]

yes.

[vivid kernel]

||Pale King and the White Lady is from the Pharloom according to Widow ||

[cosmic galleon]

Game peeeeeeak

[carmine blade]

Yep lol

But there is another secret about the bench

[trail stone]

Hello! Does somebody want to help a poor student get Silksong on Steam? After paying for my English exam I'm 10 euros short and really excited for the game

[soft haven]

last judge is very hardddd anyone know an item i could get to make the fight easier? this boss fight is stupid shit (NO I DON'T HAVE A SKILL ISSUE I BEAT ALL BOSSES IN HK)

[knotty prairie]

My theory on how hornet got to pharloom was that she fought the previous pure vessel in the black egg, got absolutely FRIED by him and got captured by pharlooms foragers/citizen/workers as they try to find more weavers or same-species individuals that can produce silk for grandmother silk

Can anyone theorize on WHERE the hell the previous pure vessel went tho

[young lintel]

Ant area made me lose every braincell

[half pawn]

Same

[opal beacon]

It seems like last judge is harder than radiance ( normal )

[lusty sorrel]

sh already left there when I went there but she didnt appear in far lands (just found her in greymoor) but still wondering why she wasnt in far lands still she had a specific room preserverd for her too

just confusing but eh i bought the map either ways just had to go through far lands without a map thats all

[knotty prairie]

Someone help me theorize raghhh

[opal beacon]

How many acts in Silksong?

[exotic plume]

did a 5 hour sleep brake and now the grind continues

[onyx pewter]

Ummm so

There are a lot of achievements with 0%

[flat palm]

God damn dude, spoiler tag that

[heavy mirage]

(Sorrry!!!)

(I'm from my mobile device)

||Guys, did I notice that Hornet started the transformation in the standard ending of the game?||

[trail stone]

Hello! Does somebody want to help a poor student get Silksong on Steam? After paying for my English exam I'm almost broke. Thanks in advance!

[heavy mirage]

(Removed the image to avoid spoiler alert

[young lintel]

This game is truly parkour simulator

[cosmic geyser]

If you data mined to discuss this, then why even bother man

Because you won’t even understand the context as to why.

King Crimson nonsense.

[heavy mirage]

I didn't datamine it.

[cosmic geyser]

You already beat the game?

[heavy mirage]

Yep

[cosmic geyser]

Das crazy good for you, I’m sure you enjoyed yourself 😒

[lusty sorrel]

how much of the game can you see in 20 minutes

[exotic trellis]

They discovered the diagonal pogo and shit their pants

[lusty sorrel]

omg hornet is so slow guess i'll just refund the game

(casually misses the peak)

[celest stump]

Lmfao

[exotic trellis]

Meanwhile I’ve been zipping around like a madwoman

[verbal jacinth]

can I just say

[exotic trellis]

No

[celest stump]

Yeah, I don’t go ANYWHERE without sprinting lol

[verbal jacinth]

those enemies that throw 2 spike traps around AND fly
are awful

[lusty sorrel]

this platforming is peak and I am happy i'm getting beaten by plain monsters with 3 moves in their moveset

[exotic trellis]

The little bastards in ||Sinner’s Road||? Yes

[verbal jacinth]

yes

[exotic trellis]

I use it constantly

[verbal jacinth]

like im genuinely getting angry at REGULAR ENEMIES because Cherry decided it was a good idea to stick these guys in groups

[exotic trellis]

I love that area but good god is it fiendish

[celest stump]

Sometimes I forget the sprint is also a dash lol

[verbal jacinth]

ive read a few negative reviews

and is it bad that I actually agree with some when they say the game is a BIT too punishing?

[exotic trellis]

The ant warriors with the war clubs and the trident-wielding bug are my favorite standard enemies so far

[celest stump]

Idk I lowk like it that way

[verbal jacinth]

like im having a harder time with regular enemies than bosses here

this isn't elden ring yet im having the same frustrating exploration experience as it

[exotic trellis]

There’s a couple bosses that have kicked the shit out of me before I got a handle on them

||Moorwing and Widow|| both gave me trouble, the latter moreso

[cosmic geyser]

She won’t be for long

[verbal jacinth]

honest to god these enemies ar ejust taking the piss a bit

[cosmic geyser]

You just start out broke.

[verbal jacinth]

why are they dealing 2 masks of damage 3 areas in 😭

[verbal jacinth]

FIrst one was just super annoying, i havent fought second one, cuz i dont like doing progression

[exotic trellis]

Fair

[verbal jacinth]

i still think some of these enemies are way too rough but the bosses have been a blast

bro come on, the ONE TIME I FIND A BENCH HERE, IT DOESNT ACTUALLY LET ME USE IT CUZ ITS """BROKEN""", SO I HAVE TO RESPAWN 20 MILES AWAY. This is exactly my issue 😭

[carmine blade]

[gilded beacon]

Anyone else has reached || the White Wing || under the citadel?

[verbal jacinth]

like bro i spent 60 rosaries on a bench, where's my bench

please tell me what i do in this siutation

[vague bramble]

Cry?

[drowsy mortar]

Alright so uh massive spoiler here

|| Shade Lord is officially canon?? ||

|| Also this seems to confirm the Knight is indeed in control and able to maintain its individual will over the Void ||

Also we now know what Delicate Flower ending did

[trail stone]

Hello! Does somebody want to help a poor student get Silksong on Steam? After paying for my English exam I'm almost broke. Thanks in advance!

[drowsy mortar]

Not the place to ask bro

Also we now have 100% confirmation this is a sequel

[verbal jacinth]

HOW BIG IS THIS MAP 😭

[half pawn]

Can you get a normal pogo in silksong, I've seen it in the trailers.

[verbal jacinth]

yhes you can

[half pawn]

K thanks

[verbal jacinth]

very early too, actually.

[fierce rose]

I have no idea tbh. Still don't even know where the coral and ""snow"" areas are

[olive falcon]

They made the game a lot harder I think im dying to normal enemies but we will really see if its hard when we get ss path of pain

[verbal jacinth]

LIKE BRO, IM EXPLORING NEW AREAS, FINDING A MAP, AND THEN FINDING MORE NEW AREAS CONNECTING TO IT

IVE FOUND 10 AREAS SO FAR AND IM STILL FINDING MORE THIS IS TAKING THE PISS 😭

[verbal jacinth]

its very, very hard. Enemies deal 2 masks of damage on the regular now

[young lintel]

I don't know where am I right now but I keep encountering mini bosses

[half pawn]

I've only played like 6 hours.

[young lintel]

And I can't find the map lady

[verbal jacinth]

I cant spoiler stuff on my keyboard so can you send the symbol for spoilers so i can copy paste it? lmao

[olive falcon]

but what do you guys think about the parkour my brother said it was harder but i thought it was easier

[exotic plume]

||

[viscid ridge]

Is it just me or is that || Last Judge || runback absolutely atrocious

[young lintel]

I played for 5 hours.
3 hours= actual playthrough
2 hours = ant area

[verbal jacinth]

Im at ||Sinners road|| or whatever its called

[half pawn]

True😭

[verbal jacinth]

And i was exploring to try get out, and found 2 new areas called ||the mist and bilewater||

[young lintel]

I don't think I'm there yet

[verbal jacinth]

like bro, ive found 2 new areas, and i cant even go there cuz im still here tryna figure out where tf to go

NO WONDER THIS TOOK 7 YEARS TO MAKE THE MAP IS ACTUALLY MASSIVE

[young lintel]

||did anyone beat act 1 final boss yet?||

[half pawn]

You know what else massive

[olive falcon]

does anyone feel like it looks similar to hk map?

[verbal jacinth]

my mom?

[young lintel]

I want to go back to a shop and buy more tools and upgrades but WHERE TF AM I

[verbal jacinth]

finding a bench, no less a bellway, is literally a BLESSING rn

like as mujch as i wanna explore ||Bilewater|| or ||The Mist||, im stuck here tryna figure out where to go so I dont die

[hexed wharf]

wait just how big the game is there are 40+ bosses and i have only fought like 3 bosses

[young lintel]

There are only like 2 benches in every area and the map is huge so it's not enough at all

[verbal jacinth]

THE MAP IS LIKE TWICE THE SIZE OF THE HK ONE

[young lintel]

I love that and hate it at the same time

[exotic plume]

I found minimum 3 sometimes 4 in each region

[verbal jacinth]

HALF OF THESE NEW AREAS IM STUMBLING ACROSS BY GOD DAMN ACCIDENT

[half pawn]

HOW IS PHARLOMM ONLY ACT 1, I THOUGHT THAT WAS THE WHOLE GAME😭😭😭

[verbal jacinth]

Im pretty sure it is the hwole game

[young lintel]

I'm in an area where there's like small spiders who spit on you but idk what's the area name

[hexed wharf]

It probably means like introduction to pharlom

[verbal jacinth]

but act 2 is just later IN pharloom

[half pawn]

It says act one in the starting though

[young lintel]

I believe that if I kept getting lost I might actually encounter the final boss with 0 upgrades

[exotic plume]

ok I found 15 areas and Im still missing 3 maps of them

[drowsy mortar]

Without spoiling what I’ve seen…uh

[exotic plume]

so its really big

[verbal jacinth]

I have 11 Maps rn, and ive just found 2 areas i dont have maps for

[young lintel]

Did you reach act 2 ?

[verbal jacinth]

no not yet, im still in act 1 filling out the map

[drowsy mortar]

There’s a secret that may tie back to Hallownest

[drowsy mortar]

I have yet to see anyone actually reach that ending though I just know it exists

[exotic plume]

can you help me real quick

[verbal jacinth]

this game is probably massive its disgusting

the music helps chill the mood out tho, especially where i am rn 😭

[hexed wharf]

I love sprinting

[young lintel]

Did anyone in this chat actually finish the game ?

[verbal jacinth]

no sir, id ont think so

cuz th egame has been out for less than 24 hours

[half pawn]

Can someone tell me at what point I get the normal pogo, I hate this diagonal one

[drowsy mortar]

Haven’t finished yet but I’ve seen the endings

[exotic plume]

fr the music in the citadel is soo good

[bronze swallow]

i played like 8-9 hours and ive been stuck at the same arena for 3 of them in ||Hunter's March||

[verbal jacinth]

Bilewater's track is very nice

[drowsy mortar]

I am losing my mind over one of them and desperately need context

[young lintel]

If the sweatiest hollow knight players in the world didn't beat this game yet then when the heck will I beat it 🙏

[verbal jacinth]

spoiling yourself. a warrior's death.

[drowsy mortar]

Yes but no

[young lintel]

That area is hell bruh

[drowsy mortar]

Without context I’m still very confused on one ending in particular

[exotic plume]

anyone remember where this npc was?

[verbal jacinth]

then playt her game more instead of watching the enemies dumdum

[bronze swallow]

I KNOW but i only have this, or ||Greymoor|| which is also hell😭

[verbal jacinth]

Somewhere back in Shellwood

[drowsy mortar]

But also y’all know this is lore right?

[drowsy mortar]

Not #sk-discussion

[young lintel]

I'm only there for the dash so I can fight lace

[exotic plume]

thanks!

[verbal jacinth]

Its either we talk here or we get drowned out in SS discussion

[drowsy mortar]

Then ping mods to enforce better because this isn’t the chat

[true grail]

bro the fcking ||greymoor|| is so stupid 😭

[half pawn]

Where do I get the normal pogo😭

[verbal jacinth]

500 rosaries for a simple key

[true grail]

the bosss 😭

[bronze swallow]

i already fought her

[fleet crater]

Pls someone help me im stuck at the farlands with no abilitie to jump over de wind turbines anyone knows what to do?

[verbal jacinth]

OR, go get the walljump

[exotic plume]

lmao got nothing from it

[verbal jacinth]

NOTHING??S HE GAVE YOU NADA???

[half pawn]

Walljump where?

[young lintel]

Good for you fr

[true grail]

u gotta find an npc

[verbal jacinth]

later int he game

[half pawn]

Have you found it yet?

[verbal jacinth]

for the record the regular pogo changes oyur entire moveset and charm screen so

[exotic plume]

yes

[verbal jacinth]

i dont use it cuz its kinda mid

[balmy reef]

Hey y’all if you wanna go over game help please use #sk-discussion

[bronze swallow]

THERE'S REGULAR POGO????

[half pawn]

Yep

[verbal jacinth]

Yes

[exotic plume]

I did a really cool combo with it

[small cave]

I have a question for people deeper in: did anyone find Seth?

[verbal jacinth]

it's the Wanderers crest if im allowed to say that

[exotic plume]

it looks like you acutally need skill for combat now and not just spam attack

[balmy reef]

questions are cool but this channel is specifically for lore discussion

[verbal jacinth]

i dont like the crests very much, i just like using the hunter one

[balmy reef]

also we’ll be opening up #sk-help in a few days

[verbal jacinth]

but maybe ill give the wanderer one a go

[half pawn]

K sorry

[balmy reef]

all good

[stray zinc]

Hunters march ruined my whole experience. Been on the same room for 5 hours. I platinumed hk. This room is too hard bro

[hexed wharf]

just dodge you get help

[drowsy mortar]

Apparently you can get locked out of true ending so I’m gonna try to be careful until someone figures out the exact sequence because I need to see how || void || gets introduced

[verbal jacinth]

I do have a gneuine question, what the helly are these weaver doors???

[bronze swallow]

reaaaal and having to walk back so much everytime i die already made ne rage quit 2 times

[vivid kernel]

Hornet is void

[drowsy mortar]

No, but she is really resistant to it

[stray zinc]

In the fight room? How? Ive been in there 40+ times for like a long time

[balmy reef]

have you beaten the shellwood boss yet

[drowsy mortar]

Drowned in it twice and lived, truly a chad

[verbal jacinth]

Splint?

[balmy reef]

Yeah

I think

[verbal jacinth]

yea ive beaten her but as soon as i got the next skill i just wandered off and started doing exploration instead

[drowsy mortar]

But alsoooooo

[hexed wharf]

Umm what room are you talking about

[balmy reef]

No Nevermind the Bellhart boss

[vivid kernel]

Is hornet void

[balmy reef]

I got it wrong

[verbal jacinth]

no sir, i have not

[drowsy mortar]

Big ending spoiler incoming

[balmy reef]

ok you should do that

[vivid kernel]

🐝

[verbal jacinth]

I'm currently exploring and need to make my way back to shellwood later

[drowsy mortar]

|| There seems to be rival void factions???? ||

[verbal jacinth]

im trying so hard not to do progression is all

[stray zinc]

The same one others are stuck on. When multiple enemies show up. The flying dude and tall ant f me up immediately every time

[drowsy mortar]

Like there’s a part of the void not under the control of the Shade Lord?

[hexed wharf]

i got help from shakra there

[gilded beacon]

I got to || Cogworks || !

[verbal jacinth]

does that open them? cuz ive found 4 so far and pinned em all

[stray zinc]

Actually??? How

[balmy reef]

4??? I only know of 2

I’ll look around more ig

[verbal jacinth]

Ive found one in Moss grotto and one in far fields but

[hexed wharf]

I think you need to buy all maps

[drowsy mortar]

Like || the Shade Lord actively fights off void in one ending, so are there like rival consciousnesses? ||

[verbal jacinth]

I also managed to find 2 more in 2 other areas VERY VERY spread apart

like genuinely the trip to these two weaver doors is MASSIVE

[drowsy mortar]

I’m so confused on that one ending someone please find the true ending sequence

[half pawn]

You know what else is massive

[verbal jacinth]

my fist going into your face >:(

[half pawn]

Aww man

[drowsy mortar]

I’m terrified to think no one has found the true final boss yet

[verbal jacinth]

Im jokiiiing :3

[balmy reef]

with datamining anything is possible

but this game is fucking massive

like holy shit

[half pawn]

You know what else is massive

[verbal jacinth]

The map is so big its disgusting

[drowsy mortar]

Haven’t seen anything aside from the normal one yet

[verbal jacinth]

youre a mod, are you less far than I am???

[balmy reef]

I had to go to sleep man

[verbal jacinth]

or am I not as far story wise and ive just managed to wander around like a headless chicken finding so many areas it can be considered torture

[drowsy mortar]

Also have not seen anything for Sharpe or how to obtain || Delicate Flower ||

[balmy reef]

I’m almost to act 2

[verbal jacinth]

ah, so the second one then

[drowsy mortar]

DF seems to be a requirement for true ending

[stray zinc]

I have 🙁

[hexed wharf]

Deep docks?

[balmy reef]

People are gonna love that

[verbal jacinth]

DF?

[drowsy mortar]

Delicate Flower

[verbal jacinth]

OHHhhh, gotcha

[balmy reef]

Deez Futz

[verbal jacinth]

i think i have an idea of where that might actually be but its just a shot int he dark

[half pawn]

At least put a spoiler man

[balmy reef]

this is lore discussion

[drowsy mortar]

|| Lace being alive || also seems to be requirement

[balmy reef]

spoilers should be expected

[cedar owl]

they have

[verbal jacinth]

i doubt she can die anyway unless they want you to just avoid her fight entirely

[drowsy mortar]

It is not Silk Mother

[stray zinc]

Yup

[cedar owl]

yes, it isn't silk mother

[drowsy mortar]

That’s the wrong area, true ending is an entirely different area

[hexed wharf]

Idk what triggers it then

[drowsy mortar]

Then I have yet to see it

[verbal jacinth]

yeah im gonna stop reading this, adios amigos, have a good one

[drowsy mortar]

Again this is why you shouldn’t come to a lore chat if you care about spoilers lol

[cedar owl]

is it ok to say it here? From what I've seen it's ||lost lace||

[drowsy mortar]

I know it has something to do with || void || but I can’t find footage of that area

[cedar owl]

well, it seems to be that

[strong flame]

So I just noticed, when you die, ||for a split second you can see Hornet's shade(?) coming out just like the knight, but we don't see the full thing, and when we come to collect our shade/silk, when we hit the silk we see a void-like thing being destroyed, does that mean Hornet's shade pops out just like the knight but since she is skilled and experienced, she traps it in silk before she dies so that it doesn't attack her again?||

[cedar owl]

judging from the datamined stuff ||lost lace || seems to be the true final boss

[feral thistle]

Is there a lore reason for Hornet not wearing any pants

[blissful harbor]

she comes from a nude kingdom

[cedar owl]

but I think it's a radiance situation where you dont fight her in all endings

[stray zinc]

Ima have to hope the patch it idk. Im about to break my PS5

[drowsy mortar]

I also do not know the context for this cutscene but it seems related to true ending || https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5nzAmthtYw&pp=ygUSc2lsa3NvbmcgbG9zdCBsYWNl ||

So maybe lose to Lace 2 for DF and go to a specific area to trigger the real final boss?

[strong flame]

aren't all endings already found? I saw a video on YouTube up already of all ||3|| endings

[cedar owl]

the cutscenes have been datamined

[drowsy mortar]

They are but no one knows where the true ending area is atm

[cedar owl]

we don't know exactly what the deal is with all the endings

[drowsy mortar]

It’s not the same location in the true ending

[cedar owl]

we would know a lot more if the text files weren't compressed lmao

[strong flame]

wowowow this is fun to be playing a game like this on release day/week and everybody is still confused as fuck

[cedar owl]

those bastards william and ari, they're onto us

[drowsy mortar]

Based on that cutscene though, I think that’s our starting point

[strong flame]

crazy to think that there's something already in the game right now that people haven't found yet

like that's weird to think about

[drowsy mortar]

I’m wilding the fuck out because I need context

[exotic plume]

crazy to think that you may found somethiong nobody found yet

[strong flame]

exactly, I love playing games on release day

[cedar owl]

well it's only a matter of time. all files have already been extracted. all sprites and cutscene are available. only the text files remain unaccessible... for now

[strong flame]

especially stuff as diverse as this lik RDR2

[strong flame]

ahh wait so the true ending cutscenes are available from datamining but we don't know how to get there yet?

[cedar owl]

yes

[strong flame]

that's awesome actually

[exotic plume]

I found the worst area

[strong flame]

how long did it take for people to find HK's true ending?

[drowsy mortar]

We vaguely know what’s required for true ending

[strong flame]

okay don't tell me tho im like brand new 😭

[cedar owl]

no clue. definitely nowhere near as fast as silksong

[drowsy mortar]

Delicate Flower and Lace are key elements of the scene, DF is probably in the area where Lace 2 is

[strong flame]

it's not even found out yet apparently, just the cutscene

[strong flame]

DUDE

[cedar owl]

there's also a "red memory" that's probably necessary too

[narrow tundra]

is hornet transmasc

[drowsy mortar]

It’s the cutscene I put there I’m pretty sure

Or the scene that comes after it

I’m so lost on timeline of that one cutscene we go from like Hornet losing to Lace to DF with void all around to Hornet waking up in her cage

[narrow tundra]

think about it.
only skill at the start of the game is binding and her/his weapon is a needle.
