[stiff burrow]

Then change your username to whatever you want to be referred to as. People need to be able to call you something

[turbid grove]

btw yall got a favourite area yet

[torn tundra]

For SilkSong?

I barely know anything about it-

[turbid grove]

yeah, mine is the first place we see in the xbox trailer

it looks so aesthetic ngl

id post an image but i cant lol

[stiff burrow]

I think the coolest looking place is the lava one so far

[torn tundra]

So, people just answer to my messages. Its enough to refer to me

Unless Im not in the conversation

[turbid grove]

i wonder what theme is used in the trailer

[silver oak]

The boneforest!

[turbid grove]

its actually such a banger

[torn tundra]

Oh people are actually coming into this channel lol

[silver oak]

Originally made as an area in Hollow Knight, only to be cut and used as the base for the silksong map

[silver oak]

which one?

[turbid grove]

the xbox trailer

[stiff burrow]

K whatever you say. Either way you were ignored at the start cause people have said 100000 times that "Silksong doesn't exist". Nothing to add to that, you know?

[torn tundra]

Yes, I get it

[turbid grove]

they renamed it to bonebottom right?

[silver oak]

Yeah we don’t know, sounds like a boss theme

[torn tundra]

Thats not the point anymore

[inland ravine]

necro :D

[stiff burrow]

Well you completely ignored my actual comment because I dared to refer to you with your username.

[silver oak]

Bonebottom is the town near the moss area. The Boneforest is the area with the bones and the lava

[turbid grove]

do we think there'l be more dynamic cutscenes

[torn tundra]

What?

[turbid grove]

ahh alright, gotcha

[stiff burrow]

I meant at the start. It's whatever now

[torn tundra]

Oh

[silver oak]

I hope so

[turbid grove]

personally id love to see a fightscene with hornet and lace or smt

[silver oak]

Ari is really good at them lol

[stiff burrow]

Cutscenes would be neat. The few we got in HK are awesome

[torn tundra]

Wasn't SilkSong supposed to be a DLC for Hollow Knight??

[stiff burrow]

It was at the start, yes

[turbid grove]

fr, the true ending cutscene got me shaking in my boots

[marsh ibex]

erm

[silver oak]

It was changed pretty early in development

[inland ravine]

joker :D

[marsh ibex]

gwnj 😄

what the fuck

J thrned that off

[silver oak]

let me have my fun j ok njet

[torn tundra]

What the thing is in your name?? "Axo with no lotl"??

[turbid grove]

sometimes i wonder what team cherry would be working on if silksong didnt exist

[silver oak]

another game probably

[inland ravine]

it based on my username girl with no job

[stiff burrow]

Fearless Fox is something they trademarked so that maybe

[turbid grove]

they did say that silksong would be the last game in the franchise right

[silver oak]

No way they would move on after the massive success of HK

[torn tundra]

The "girl with no job" part is??

[inland ravine]

yep

[spare fractal]

Hi joker!

[turbid grove]

yoo i love foxes

[marsh ibex]

hello patoo

[torn tundra]

Ok

[turbid grove]

yeah, tbh id love to see more hk spinoffs

[stiff burrow]

It's assumed to be what they'd do after Silksong currently. But who knows.

[silver oak]

I doubt there’ll be another game in the HK franchise

[torn tundra]

Notes down: people do not use proper grammar, difficult to understand some things

[silver oak]

Plus, I’d love to see them tackle another genre of game

[marsh ibex]

ok then

[turbid grove]

i feel as though a quirrel spinoff would go hard, it could show us his journey before hallownest and give us an idea of what the outside world it like

[torn tundra]

Well

[marsh ibex]

quirrel comic moment

[runic atlas]

did you discover the internet yesterday?

[turbid grove]

and then the game could end as he enters hallownest

[silver oak]

Quirrel bullet hell

[marsh ibex]

honestly ari where’s my goddamn hornet comic

[turbid grove]

fr

[stiff burrow]

Quirrel farming sim 👍

[torn tundra]

No, where I live people use correct grammar

Including wherever I go in the Internet

[runic atlas]

sounds fake

[stiff burrow]

Yeah where is that?

[torn tundra]

Surprisingly no

[stiff burrow]

In the Internet where I mean

[runic atlas]

you missed a comma before no

your grammar is incorrect

[silver oak]

When it’s ready obviously

[runic atlas]

wait no it isnt grammar

[torn tundra]

Youtube-

[turbid grove]

has there been any official news lately, shamefully ive forgotten about it over the last month or so

[silver oak]

Nope

[stiff burrow]

I guess YT comments use correctly grammar more than discord at least

[runic atlas]

?sspsa

[white sail]

Reminder: The latest news for both Hollow Knight and Silksong can be found in #hk-announcements.
Check the pinned messages for more information, including a FAQ.

[turbid grove]

ah good to know

[runic atlas]

(they dont)

[silver oak]

last official thing was Leth deconfirmimg the release window last year

[stiff burrow]

Slightly more often.

[torn tundra]

Also it depends on the country

[turbid grove]

man imagine if they completely remodeled silksong to be a 3d game

[torn tundra]

I mean, it's in my country they use proper grammar

[silver oak]

why would they do that

[stiff burrow]

That would be... not good?

[turbid grove]

yeah but... it would be funny

[torn tundra]

They would lose all money they invested on it

[silver oak]

Ari is a very good traditional 2D artist

[turbid grove]

3d silksong would look so goofy

[torn tundra]

I find it funny most people usernames has nothing to do with their pfps.

[turbid grove]

tbh ive never seen someones username actually match their pfp

[torn tundra]

Surprisingly I did

[turbid grove]

i didnt know u were supposed to

[torn tundra]

You aren't lol

[spare fractal]

I am an exception, surprisingly.

[stiff burrow]

I also see that sometimes, but it's by no means the norm

[torn tundra]

And you guys would see one if I changed my name to "Martlet"

[spare fractal]

Undertale Yellow is so awesome

[torn tundra]

Agreed

There is only one flaw.

Zenith Martlet

[stiff burrow]

My name's only Rayman cause I picked that when I was like 10 and it just stuck.
Love UT Yellow as well.

[turbid grove]

have we determined if silksong is a sequel or a prequel btw

[spare fractal]

FUCK THIS FIGHT FUCK THIS FIGHT FUCK THIS FIGHT

[torn tundra]

Found someone with PTSD

Thank God I never do Geno runs

[marsh ibex]

shits and giggles

[stiff burrow]

Oh no not this question It says the sequel in the description but technically that could just mean second in the franchise so we don't know for sure

[torn tundra]

The prohibited question

[silver oak]

To be fair they have said in interviews that a lot of HK began as “wouldn’t it be funny if”

[turbid grove]

lore wise, could we determine whether its before or after hk?

[silver oak]

not with the info we have

[stiff burrow]

When the game comes out, for sure. Now? No

[torn tundra]

Before it's release, no.

[silver oak]

In terms of the structuring of the plot, it makes it way more annoying if it’s a prequel

[torn tundra]

"Wouldn't it be funny if we made a game with cute characters only to have a dark meaning in which the protagonist's father is the stupid one and left him to die"

[silver oak]

Plus they’ve said that she’s “lost her traditional strength” which is the classic sequel reset move

[stiff burrow]

Also if it was a prequel why does Hornet have none of the Silksong exclusive abilites in her fights?

[torn tundra]

I prefer the "Alternate Universe" way in this case.

[turbid grove]

could that mean that hornet at the end of silksong could be more powerful than the knight

[silver oak]

Oh 100%

[turbid grove]

cause she would have a bunch of new abilities

[silver oak]

Hornet would solo

[stiff burrow]

Not in the Godhome ending but otherwise maybe

[turbid grove]

tbh i always just felt like hornet should be stronger than the knight, lore wise

[torn tundra]

Which is the canon ending? Godhome or normal protagonist dies ending?

[wild mantle]

the knight is basically a god after godhome ending

[turbid grove]

technically theres no cannon ending

[stiff burrow]

Why? Knight has 2 gods as parents and can use void while Hornet has 1 god

[torn tundra]

I know

But which would fit more to SS?

[turbid grove]

hornet is just, more capable of thought ig

considering the knight is mostly hollow

[silver oak]

All of them have the capacity to

[torn tundra]

Hornet... Is not trapped/dead

[silver oak]

Plus the ending doesn’t really matter because we know where she is at the start of the game

[torn tundra]

Oh yeah tell that to the second ending "Sealed Siblings"

[silver oak]

“Oh no she’s trapped” isn’t dependent on any one ending

[opaque sigil]

idk what the tag is anymore

[silver oak]

?tag sealedsiblings

[white sail]

No tag sealedsiblings found.

[silver oak]

Damn

[opaque sigil]

?tag info sealedsiblings

[white sail]

No tag sealedsiblings found in category info.

[silver oak]

?tag jokerpsa

[white sail]

No tag jokerpsa found.

[stiff burrow]

Intro cutscene of Silksong has them break a white seal. Maybe they just opened the egg that same way to get her

[torn tundra]

...WHAT??

[opaque sigil]

?tag info jokerpsa

[white sail]

Silksong spoilers!

||https://youtube.com/clip/UgzlVc4LM4J6_DfuscZ4AaABCQ||

No ending stops Hornet from being captured, and the ability to break seals with bugs from Pharloom makes Hornet being locked in the Black Egg not an issue. Dreamers also don’t die when sealed, we simply didn’t have the means to remove them without killing them.

[turbid grove]

one thing i hope they expand on in silksong is character relationships, the knight was kinda dry for obvious reasons, but since hornet has a personality, i hope they delve into her flaws and strengths, and show her overcome adversity in some way

[silver oak]

Well get there

There it is

[silver oak]

@torn tundra

[torn tundra]

I've seen it!

God

[silver oak]

Just makin sure

[turbid grove]

this is probably one of my biggest hopes for the story

[torn tundra]

Imagine they put Zote the Mighty in SS.

[silver oak]

Yeah Hornet being a talking character opens up a lot of possibilities

[wild mantle]

can't wait for silksong also to have 4 different canon endings and a 5th canon ending that changes the 4th ending slightly

[turbid grove]

the gameplay already seems perfect in the trailers, but we dont know much about the story

[stiff burrow]

Knight definitely overcame adversities in HK, but I know what you mean

[turbid grove]

nothing emotionally or mentally

[silver oak]

It’s hard to do that in a video game since you always restart

[torn tundra]

Maybe Sealed Siblings is the ending which will fit guys. Just look:

SilkSong: SS
Sealed Siblings: SS

[turbid grove]

bro is just stoic the whole way thru

[silver oak]

where’s that old copypasta

[opaque sigil]

yes emotionally and mentally, that's the whole deal with void heart

[silver oak]

SS? Did you mean: Shaman stone, Shade skip, Shade soul, Sharp shadow, Silk Soul, Soul sanctum , Sealed Siblings, Sly's Shop, Salubra's Shop, Stag Stations, Spore Shroom, Stalwart Shell, Steel Soul, Stone Sanctuary, Scream Skip, or Snail Shaman?

[torn tundra]

Endings

[turbid grove]

i thought that was with the hollowknight, not the knight himself

[silver oak]

Silksong isn’t even on here lmao

[opaque sigil]

the knight is the one that gets void heart, not thk

[torn tundra]

Specifically, I mean all Endings which are "SS"

[sage void]

hows it going ssdisc

[weary estuary]

AAAAHHH

[torn tundra]

Not really good I guess

[spare fractal]

Hi agent!

[sage void]

hope it gets better

[silver oak]

The point for all endings being canon is to make it so you don’t have to have played HK to immediately understand silksong

[sage void]

hiiii

[turbid grove]

yeah ik, but isn't the knight meant to be virtually empty inside, so he doesnt really feel anything, ig he could have memories but i dont see any reaction based on those memories

[torn tundra]

That's the point of most sequels

[sage void]

feeling so Hash Pipe by Weezer today

[opaque sigil]

no

[wild mantle]

kinda stupid though when hollow knight is like 5+ years old!!!!!!!

[sage void]

babyhornet.,.,., shhhh.,.,.

[opaque sigil]

hk being old is all the more reason to make ss more widely accessible narratively

[torn tundra]

You aren't in this discussion for enough time to understand...

[wild mantle]

maybe

[silver oak]

It’s bad business to assume all potential silksong buyers will have already played HK

That cuts your market down

[torn tundra]

Mostly, 95% of them will have played

[turbid grove]

true, hk isnt very mainstream anymore, so having the sequel rely directly on the original game might drag it down a little

[silver oak]

Where’d you get that number from

[torn tundra]

I have my ways🙃

[opaque sigil]

it is pretty common to see people asking things like 'do I need to play the first one to understand this game' when it comes to sequels

[turbid grove]

i thought it would be about 70% tbh

maybe 50-60%

[opaque sigil]

the answer to that question being 'no' means more people will play it

[sage void]

ill 100% play it whenever it comes out

[torn tundra]

Ok, let's try to round this number down

[turbid grove]

cause u have to consider that if silksong has a major launch, it'll bring in tons of new players

[silver oak]

Silksong is highly anticipated, as long as it’s good i could totally see a big group who jump on the series at silksong

How can you play the game but not see the game

[torn tundra]

Let me do it again

Ok, now it's "Never played, only seen and know the story" it goes to 50%

[silver oak]

or just seen

Or never seen! Silksong’s gonna be a big release

[torn tundra]

All in this goes to these 50%

[silver oak]

I could definitely see it breaking into the mainstream market

[torn tundra]

Now never seen goes into 25%

And played goes to the rest 25%

[silver oak]

*in a way HK couldn’t have because of its slow build in popularity

[turbid grove]

yeah, i assume they're saving up all their announcements for the last month or two of the game so that it gets a ton of attention

[silver oak]

Again where are these numbers coming from

[opaque sigil]

to an extent yeah, HK was already kind of bumping up against it at some points

[torn tundra]

I have my ways😐

[turbid grove]

i cant really see it flopping tbh, i can only see it as the next big thing, even if its only for a few months in the mainstream media

[silver oak]

The chances that it’s bad are very low

knock on wood

[opaque sigil]

the dichotomy is not 'flop' or 'next big thing'

[turbid grove]

yeah, based on the gameplay ive seen, i dont think theres any way i could not like it

[opaque sigil]

SS is definitely going to be the big thing in indie circles, beyond that it will depend on what bigger releases are happening at the same time

[silver oak]

It’ll make a splash regardless of quality, time will tell if it has the staying power of HK

[turbid grove]

ur right, assuming it releases late this year, i think itll be a massive hit, cause im not really sure there are any other major games coming out

releasing it in 2025 would be a terrible idea imo, cause its bound to get overshadowed by GTA 6 no matter what

[torn tundra]

Guys I did some research and the numbers changed

Never heard/seen HK are now 5%

Never played keeps 50%

And Played goes to 45%

[half arrow]

I think it is the first Indie with a development time of 7 years, like a triple A

[opaque sigil]

gta probably wouldn't affect it that much

[opaque sigil]

that's just not even true

[turbid grove]

how come

[silver oak]

Different markets

[torn tundra]

GTA will literally overshadow everything in 2025

It's GTA!

[opaque sigil]

the market is big enough to have multiple games come out each year

no game is so large that other games couldn't perform well in that year, not even gta

[turbid grove]

thats true, but GTA 6 is pretty much guarenteed to be mainstream, whether its good or bad, and that would overshadow silksong's chance to become mainstream if they release within similar windows

[weary estuary]

Do people genuinely think its coming 2025?

[torn tundra]

And not get overshadowed by sometinhg people wanted for so many years??

[half arrow]

Yes it is xd, Team Cherry confirmed that development began in 2017, on the Edge blog and magazine

[silver oak]

It’s coming when it’s coming

[turbid grove]

ah true, ig it would only be an issue if they came out within a few months of each other

[primal horizon]

They meant something different

[silver oak]

There are so many games that have taken this long

[opaque sigil]

you're misconstruing things but that isn't even what I meant, indie games taking longer than that happens

[primal horizon]

Thank you

[torn tundra]

Still want to know where the numbers came from??

[silver oak]

who are you

[torn tundra]

Lol

I can't go AFK for 5 minutes and I get forgotten

[turbid grove]

yeah, the way i see it, we're lucky this isnt turning out to be one of those games that takes over a decade to release

[primal horizon]

LITERALLY SAME

[opaque sigil]

tc probably didn't start developing ss actually in 2017, that would be insane, and even if they did they would've had to have been doing it alongside hk updates which means not having full dev time on ss

[torn tundra]

Relatable

[turbid grove]

i didnt even know that GTA 6 was a thing until 2019, thats several years after gta V

[half arrow]

Yeah, i know that xd

[opaque sigil]

they probably had ideas they were writing down back in 2017 but that... isn't the same

[silver oak]

From what they’ve said it seems like they were in planning/conceptual stages then yeah

[torn tundra]

The Script was being written and revised from 2017 and so on

And now it's the development I think

[turbid grove]

yeah, i think they started actually developing the game in maybe mid 2018, since the trailer they dropped in early 2019 seemed to have a decent amount of content

[silver oak]

Full development was long enough to basically get a decent looking trailer by early the next year

[half arrow]

In those two years before the silksong announcement, they had the idea phase and made the demo

[primal horizon]

I don’t think you can make a decent amount of content with something like silksong in half a year

[silver oak]

I can’t believe they would lie to us by making the game seem more finished than it actually is in the trailer

No game studio would ever do that

[coarse leaf]

True

[primal horizon]

sarcasm wasn’t needed there 💀

[coarse leaf]

Who would so such a thing smh

[torn tundra]

Every studio does that

[turbid grove]

that is a possibility, but i dont think its a bad thing tbh

[opaque sigil]

necro is being sarcastic

[runic atlas]

(rain world spoilers for after metropolis) what the hell is this

[silver oak]

Yes but it was funny

[opaque sigil]

game trailers aren't meant to represent the current state of a project, everybody knows that

[turbid grove]

theyre... they're not?

[coarse leaf]

No

[opaque sigil]

even at an early dev stage you're presenting what you think is a finished looking version of the project

[turbid grove]

how am i just learning about this now

[coarse leaf]

No one wants to see actual dev footage

[opaque sigil]

that would be really bad marketing

[silver oak]

A lot of marketing is lying to make yourself look good

[primal horizon]

True I do that all the time

[opaque sigil]

it's not even really lying necessarily

[turbid grove]

thats crazy

[primal horizon]

No it’s lying.

[opaque sigil]

if you plan on adding a feature you can say that the game will have that feature without it being false

[silver oak]

Call it selective development

[primal horizon]

But I think that’s ok 👍

[turbid grove]

so nothing we've seen is confirmed? not even the epic claw attack in the trailer?

[coarse leaf]

Yeah, there might still be bugs at the time of the trailer release, TC wouldnt show bugs in their trailers

[primal horizon]

y’know that’s possible knowing the early dev stages of hollow knight

[primal horizon]

they did show bugs.

[coarse leaf]

That's not it, it is confirmed that it will be there in the full release

[silver oak]

The overall systems and ideas likely won’t change

[turbid grove]

[coarse leaf]

Where?

[primal horizon]

Everywhere

[coarse leaf]

Why would TC do that

[coarse leaf]

Not really no, devs generally try to implement what they're showing but minor stuff still gets cuts or changed all the time

You're lying

[opaque sigil]

it's more that since the things they put in the trailers are their best foot forwards, those are probably the things less likely to get removed

[primal horizon]

Because bugs is the main focus of the game

or at least part of the setting

[turbid grove]

as long as hornet is still in the game im sure itll be great 👍

[wild mantle]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-silksong-bug-video-juegos-gif-2179743417052902992

[coarse leaf]

I disagree. Bye

[coarse leaf]

Its buggy, looks weird, plays weird, and is a terrible representation of the finished product. Best example is the gta 6 dev leak

[primal horizon]

(Guys I don’t think they got the joke)

[coarse leaf]

Wrong

[turbid grove]

wait but then how do they make the trailer if they dont have the actual content they wanan show

[coarse leaf]

They make content for the trailer

You dont need full developed areas, you need the 3 seconds of it you see in the trailer

[turbid grove]

ahh that makes sense

[coarse leaf]

i was gonna make an ai art joke but got scared that it'll start a completely disconnected topic

[opaque sigil]

the next room over from every trailer clip could be a bunch of boxes or just not exist at all

[silver oak]

many such cases

anyways

Any silkers in chat

[charred surge]

Have you tried doing a little jig

[charred surge]

No way galaga

[cunning geode]

true galaga is awesome

though ive played more space invaders

Star of Providence (previously Monolith) is fucking INCREDIBLE though goddamn

[runic atlas]

why did they change the name

[cunning geode]

they had worries over legal trouble with another company

and they also wanted it to be more unique so its a lot easier to look up now

ive grown to like the new name too

[charred surge]

Call me an absolute basic bitch but the music kinda reminds me of shovel knight (which is a compliment, sk ost slaps)

[cunning geode]

yeah its catchy chiptune

super good ost

[sinful flare]

i love the floor 6 exclusive weapon

oh hey theres a new monolith wiki

[cunning geode]

are we talking ||temple|| or actually floor 6

[sinful flare]

https://starofprovidence.wiki.gg/wiki/Star_of_Providence_Wiki

[cunning geode]

yeah nice shiny wiki

[sinful flare]

actually floor 6

[cunning geode]

whats the floor 6 weapon?

[sinful flare]

uhh hold m1 then release to kill the entire room

i kinda like the sound it makes idk why

[charred surge]

Oh, it’s a roguelite
maybe I’ll consider actually getting it ‘cause it looks cool and I like roguelites/likes

[sinful flare]

its called ||genocide||

[fallen blaze]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-showdown-pokemon-hop-on-pokemon-showdown-pokemon-showdown-anyone-red-bird-gif-26971718

[cunning geode]

oh ha thats not floor 6 exclusive

[sinful flare]

really??

[cunning geode]

yeah

[sinful flare]

somehow every time i found it it was only on floor 6

[cunning geode]

odd chance then

[charred surge]

https://tenor.com/view/chi-yu-pokemon-speech-bubble-torkoal-gif-17904128452003247135

[cunning geode]

you can get uniques most floors if not all

[fallen blaze]

I hate gen 9 comp

[cunning geode]

i cant force ya to play it, but i highly recommend. a beautiful blend of bullet hell and fast-paced roguelike dungeon crawling

super replayable and easy to start over after dying, you can have very quick runs without even trying to speedrun because of how streamlined it is

[sinful flare]

imagine getting dream luck to get a cursed weapon and its curse lasts 20 rooms

[sinful flare]

what do you think of the sword btw

[cunning geode]

yeah ha that bell curve is sweet

the ||sacred arms?||

[sinful flare]

oop thats kind of spoilers but oh well

yeee

[cunning geode]

its great

[sinful flare]

i love that weapon so much but why do it have to be LIMITED AMMO GRAAAAAH

[cunning geode]

super good for finishing floor 5

[sinful flare]

ammo is kinda hard to find

[cunning geode]

balance my dear watson

[sinful flare]

can you enter temple at any time

[cunning geode]

from floors 1-4 yes

[sinful flare]

im used to unbalanced shit like

[charred surge]

I was actually tempted to ask if it was a decently long or had replayability or whatever so that’s good to know

[sinful flare]

i feel like it has a VERY LONG progression

[cunning geode]

its got a lot of content now that the DLC is base game

but individual runs are quick

[sinful flare]

like i havent even unlocked ||other ships|| 😭 (veyr very very large spoiler pls dont click)

Referring any notable user as “aren’t you that one silksong fan”

[cunning geode]

if youve played gungeon its a lot faster than that its more comparable to Nuclear Throne

[charred surge]

Tfw when you have unlocked black box 😔 (idk what the spoiler says ‘cause I didn’t click it)

[cunning geode]

omg black box from soldier tf2

[charred surge]

I’ve played neither of those games

[cunning geode]

so nobody in this channel

also heya window heya heya

[grand ferry]

bad box

[cunning geode]

what other roguelikes have you played if any?

[sinful flare]

the average ror2 run takes between 30-50 minutes i'd say

[grand ferry]

i dont think i have ever taken lunar items

[charred surge]

Slay the spire and FTL are the ones I definitely know I have

[sinful flare]

star of providence runs take like 15 minutes i think

[cunning geode]

oh i havent played FTL but i have played Spire for a long time

[olive bobcat]

When will the Spire finally be slayed

[charred surge]

Oh wow; my runs in sts tend to be like 40ish minutes to like an hour so that’s super quick lol

[cunning geode]

death is also very quick

[fallen blaze]

you have to slay the spire

[charred surge]

If you get the ruby, sapphire, and emerald keys and kill the heart

[cunning geode]

i mean star of providence is pretty forgiving honestly but higher difficulties are rough

[fallen blaze]

Like p9kemon?

[charred surge]

Kill quick, die quick, you love to see it

[olive bobcat]

The slayable spire in question:

[cunning geode]

you can get away with some ludicrous shit in the bullet hell events, your hitbox is super tiny

[fallen blaze]

I'd win

[sinful flare]

me when i get hit (i lose access to the temple, lose 1x multiplier, and the hud starts to shake)

[charred surge]

That’s not the Spire wtf!!!!!!

[olive bobcat]

Man I should rewatch the Jotaro vs DIO fight again

[cunning geode]

oh and i guess i can sell this game better by saying the devs for star of providence helped Toby Fox with bullet hell fights in deltarune

[olive bobcat]

Literally peak JoJo

[cunning geode]

and it has some of the most fun boss fights in any game ive played

[opaque sigil]

honestly sts goes harder

[charred surge]

Fuck I was literally just thinking about how Undertale and stuff are kinda bullet hells but didn’t wanna say anything to appear basic

[wide quartz]

[cunning geode]

no youre right its okay

[wide quartz]

i thought i recognised the name

[cunning geode]

not about appearing basic heh

[fallen blaze]

Woah woah oh oh story

[charred surge]

I know that sts really isn’t a lore focused game and honestly it’s probably better to have a lot of stuff that gives freedom to speculate, but it would be cool if we had more tangible lore about not only the spire but like, the world of sts itself

[opaque sigil]

yeah there isn't very much

there's the order of the watchers or whatever they're called, and Silent's tribe

and the ironclads but they're dead

[cunning geode]

and the funny robo

[charred surge]

Like, it gives us a lot of questions — who tf are Kublai the Great or the Architect? Why was Neow sent to the bottom? What’s the deal with Time Eater and Watcher??? I could go on, even more general stuff like the culture of Silent’s or Ironclad’s tribes and stuff — but not much tangible answers. Like, again, probably for the best that this stuff is kept open-ended not only to prevent any bloat to the game and its world but also to give players freedom of interpretation, but you can’t help but feel a little frustrated to have all these questions with no definitive way to answer them lol

[opaque sigil]

well time eater is a member of her order who got corrupted by the spire

[cunning geode]

they should make a slay the spire webcomic to answer everything

[charred surge]

Well yeah, that much is clear, but why the grudge smh

[charred surge]

Honestly that could go hard as fuck

[opaque sigil]

coworkers don't have to get along

[charred surge]

time eater when he sees the Watcher (he has not forgotten the time she asked to borrow a pen and never returned it)

[opaque sigil]

"Give it back"
"Only by surrendering our worldy attachments can we achieve divinity"
"Fuck you"

[charred surge]

I wish we could know a bit more about the Defect too fr; like their prism memory is literally “Confusion” lol

[cunning geode]

poor robo

[charred surge]

Pen nib lore

[cunning geode]

snecko lore 1000 pages

[charred surge]

Given the implied snecko cult, specifically with centurion and mystic, more lore about snecko, and more generally about the cults/faiths in the spire and its world would be very cool

[coral prawn]

this cat has great makeup

[weary tapir]

Good taste in music too

[cunning geode]

dude i discovered this band called Beastmaker last night

music went straight into the folds of my brain just such good black sabbath goddamn

actually incredible how that music makes me feel

im also on lots of pain meds but thats unrelated 👹

[versed pollen]

Brain damage

[cunning geode]

https://open.spotify.com/track/5nH8p6WpSmT0T6QYSGhyr0?si=101abda00a9946a1

no this is brain healing

https://open.spotify.com/track/3bnzbZQB5hBuDVvU23MuEp?si=JLkETxqJTgS4OTJyo1sKEw
this too but its completely different this song is like if daft punk made Portal 2 music

[deep laurel]

ender lilies is tougher than thought

even though you have a shadow dash without cooldown

[sinful flare]

@cunning geode i hit the jackpot

[cunning geode]

muy bien

[sinful flare]

ok this doesnt seem as exciting as the laser but its kinda pretty good

[cunning geode]

its a pretty solid keyword combo

[sinful flare]

true

i thought it was gonna be like ukulele
then i remembered chain lightning isnt that great

[cunning geode]

fast, aoe, doesnt require the best aiming therefore saves ammo

also saves ammo through aoe

[sinful flare]

nvm i found reserves

[cunning geode]

reserves is great

[sinful flare]

true, free damage

[sinful flare]

hmm you have a point

[cunning geode]

its more damage than you might think too when using base weapon because the base weapon is upgraded on top of the damage boost

i forget the numbers lemme look it up

[sinful flare]

KJBALDHFKASJLODŞKAWMJRD=XMMMMMXMXMXMXM^+(/'=()!+?='!)MCMMMMMMMMMMMAYFHSDGJKHGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

[cunning geode]

okay so it changes the base weapon damage calculation from 1x100% to 2x55% so I guess that means it hits twice for 110% total

[sinful flare]

is that a choice or can i get them all cuz they seem linked

[cunning geode]

you choose one

linked means only one

[sinful flare]

yo

[cunning geode]

i would advise getting double swords whenever possible

oh thats a fun one

[sinful flare]

also
secret room and enigma room right next to eachother wtf

[cunning geode]

yeah that happens to me often too

[sinful flare]

i found among us room

[haughty pumice]

@sinful flare
How did the exam go?

[coarse leaf]

[manic abyss]

oh yeah I forgor Kaan had an exam

Did you make the lab explode?

or was it written?

[haughty pumice]

[manic abyss]

I mean true

Kaan should get full marks
He is the alchemist

[haughty pumice]

Hell yeah

Star of Providence Final Exam

[manic abyss]

So you're telling me you did blow up the lab?

[haughty pumice]

Oh sorry , I slipped off for a moment

[manic abyss]

Don't worry it happens sometimes

[haughty pumice]

Yup , it's all good

[sinful flare]

more like the grade probably

[cunning geode]

shit kaan i thought youd been playing monolith for a lot longer

youre progressing well

[manic abyss]

Well at least you blew up something

[haughty pumice]

It's fun blowing up stuff

[manic abyss]

Dw tho it happens
If it makes ya feel better I got a D in my Physics exam

[haughty pumice]

Oh damn

What was in the exam?

[manic abyss]

Physics

The exam itself was made way harder than any of us had practiced

like even the smartest people in my class got a C or a B

and then there was my friend who got full marks
like literally 100

[haughty pumice]

I mean which kind of physics
Electrons , Light , Falling apples

[haughty pumice]

Oh God

[manic abyss]

Falling apples

[haughty pumice]

Ah

[haughty pumice]

Big Dedication

[manic abyss]

Graphs
Forces
Elasticity
Probably like momentum or smth idk

[haughty pumice]

Yeah I gotchu

[manic abyss]

He prepares the year 2 syllabus so he doesn't have to next year

[haughty pumice]

Ohhh

He's planned everything ahead

[manic abyss]

Yeah
a good idea
probably should do it too
I won't tho

[haughty pumice]

Yeah I doubt that investing too much time and effort into school is gonna help a lot

Unless you want to become like a teacher or a doctor

[fallen blaze]

Boom

[coral prawn]

Bang

[sinful flare]

i found like an entrance to the right of boss after beating overlord and turns out it just ended the run

couldve gone floor 6

[sinful flare]

i got 66 on my math exam and told it to my chem teacher and he congratulated me

[cunning geode]

yeah every other path besides going to floor 6 ends your run

[sinful flare]

bullshit and rng

[manic abyss]

Hey at least ya didn't fail

[cunning geode]

sad mistake its easy to do that by accident

[manic abyss]

That's all my exams in a nutshell

[sinful flare]

i was at 1/17 hp at the end of boss fight but i had quickening

[cunning geode]

did you have quickening during the exam too

[manic abyss]

Indubitably

[sinful flare]

i had sleepiness during the exam

slowening you could say

[manic abyss]

I remember in my Chem exam, there was a question as simple as "Which tool would be used to measure the level of heat in this chemical reaction?"

Obviously, thermometer right?

[sinful flare]

i hate chemical reaction questions

[manic abyss]

I was so zoned out and sleepy (I had not slept the night before) I wrote TEMPERATURE

FUCKING TEMPERATURE

[sinful flare]

i have to memoriğze what makes fucking moleculars polar and apolar

[sinful flare]

😭

[manic abyss]

Dude I hate that so much

I haven't reached that far into the syllabus yet
Seems like I'm like a year behind you
buuut, God damn I hate chemical equations

[sinful flare]

at least this exam was part math part memorization and part easier memorization that doesnt feel simply pointless and kind of intriguing

[manic abyss]

It took me a year to half figure them out

[sinful flare]

im never figuring out chemical reactions 😎

[manic abyss]

and I still don't remember what a Valancy is
like I know what Valancy Hydrogen has, but I don't know what it is

[cunning geode]

valency?

it has to do with the outermost electrons

those are the electrons involved in chemical bonds

[sinful flare]

i dont know english terms..

[cunning geode]

you are 100% forgiven my guy

[manic abyss]

the fuckin number things

[opaque sigil]

Number of electrons in the outermost shell

[manic abyss]

like Oxygen's valancy is -2 or smth

[cunning geode]

oh thats not true

[manic abyss]

Oh

[coarse leaf]

what

whats there to memorise

[cunning geode]

you cant have a negative valency, i think youre mixing that up with charge

[manic abyss]

Then was it Oxidation Number?

[coarse leaf]

yes

[sinful flare]

uhh elements

[manic abyss]

okay yeah that

[cunning geode]

yes thats oxidation number! nice

[manic abyss]

I somehow memorized the first 25ish elements

[cunning geode]

thats all you should memorize honestly

[coarse leaf]

no like the polar and apolar stuff

[manic abyss]

I mean I don't even need to memorize that

[cunning geode]

periodic table was designed with the INTENT for people not to memorize shit

[manic abyss]

They give us the periodic table

[cunning geode]

yes its a powerful tool

[sinful flare]

i think what elements make the molecule polar idk i didnt repeat the topic

[cunning geode]

yeah thats important too

[manic abyss]

In any case I started Stoichiometry and I hate it
Honestly the only subjects I don't horribly suck at rn are Computer Science, English, and somehow, Islamic Studies

[sinful flare]

there are like a few other rules too i i magine

[cunning geode]

water being polar is important to memorize

[coarse leaf]

eh i mean

[cunning geode]

because then you know what mixes and what doesnt mix with water

[manic abyss]

Elements when they're cold or smth:

[sinful flare]

the most abundant element in molecule is what makes the element polar right

by mass

[coarse leaf]

what i meant originally was that i dont think its not to memorise thr fact that water is polar... you'd probably remember that if you know the structure of water

[sinful flare]

ohhhh

[cunning geode]

uhhh it has to do with how the molecule is structured and the minor differences in charge

polarity that is

[sinful flare]

so thats why its important

[cunning geode]

yeah nonpolar molecules are hydrophobic, they dont mix with water. thats what the outside of your cells are

wait wait wrong

[coarse leaf]

basically H2O is kinda bent shaped and the oxygen tries to pull a sneaky on the hydrogens so it becomes polar

[cunning geode]

the inside of the cell membrane is hydrophobic, excuse me

[wheat thunder]

https://tenor.com/view/lego-diarrhea-shitposting-gif-8359424

[cunning geode]

that way water is kept out

[coarse leaf]

oxygen goes like "my electrons are my electrons but your electrons are also my electrons"

[cunning geode]

its complex yeah i feel ya

[wide quartz]

top 10 images before disaster

[sinful flare]

even the oxygen robs other elements

[coarse leaf]

but did you know that fluorine can rob even oxygen

[cunning geode]

fluorine is the most electronegative element

[coarse leaf]

chemical bonding actually happens because elements love to rob each other

[cunning geode]

well thats one way to put it

[coarse leaf]

they're so silly

[cunning geode]

they are

[sinful flare]

robbing is loving

[wheat sail]

That shit gonna come out in 3 years

[weary tapir]

I don’t think it ever will tbh

Good mods r never completed. Not the modders fault. Its just so much work

[wheat sail]

Eh Rom hacks do come out eventually but yeah a long time

[weary tapir]

I think silast has been working on this mod since I was in highschool like 4 years ago

And ppl never stop pestering him bc people suck

[grand ferry]

yo wtf this

[weary tapir]

It’s a mod to make the gen 4 map have the gen 5 camera

Has been being worked on for YEARS it’s really cool

I can send a few more

[grand ferry]

mapping the entirety of sinnoh in gen 5 sounds like pain

that and setting flags

[weary tapir]

Here’s the intro sequence replaced with the new maps https://fxtwitter.com/silast_up/status/1709870292498010269?s=46&t=U8B0-0qHt_21QWlNI4sP_w

https://fxtwitter.com/silast_up/status/1668560089513353217?s=46&t=U8B0-0qHt_21QWlNI4sP_w and then here’s galactic hq bc it’s my favorite area

https://fxtwitter.com/AdAstra_GL/status/1702630019829252261?t=vHwsKG6RO4353fp6pwca8w&s=19 waiting for thjs

[weary tapir]

Oh hell yea they’re making the best game even better

[wheat sail]

Rom hack do what Nintendont

Or gamefreak don't whayever

[weary tapir]

Real time map changes is fucking absurd

Can’t wait for all these projects to finish and then Nintendo goes

[wheat sail]

Yeah it looks cool

[weary tapir]

“No smile” and shits them down immediately

Shuts

Lmao horrid typo

[wheat sail]

And then gamefreak releases another barebones rushed dogshart

[weary tapir]

YEAHHHHHH

[wheat sail]

It has gotten to the point where if they do anything slightly different they get massive praise for doing anything slightly different even if the game is still lacking in polish and everywhere like legends arceus

Pokemon fans just lowered their standards down 👇 here

[grand ferry]

gen 10 now removes all pokemon, npcs and items from games, instead offering auditory cues for gameplay

you're cooking scarfy..

[flat remnant]

i didn't make this

[wheat sail]

Blind person experience

[flat remnant]

sarah bestie u overestimate me

[wheat sail]

Sarah omggg

[cunning geode]

reminds me of the random portal 2 hate i saw recently

[wheat sail]

Cat that hotdog is pretty cool, do you look like that

[cunning geode]

"poorly written game, portal 1 better"

[exotic geyser]

waddahell portal 2 is a banger, i wonder what part they think is badly written

[nimble radish]

I can see people liking portal 2 less as it's got a bigger focus of the comedy

[wheat sail]

The part where you die

[spare fractal]

agreed, Portal 2 is a masterpiece

[exotic geyser]

that's true...

[wheat sail]

Valve games usually don't miss

For the occasional times they make games..

[unborn dome]

yeah, I find it funny how much people praise arceus when if they’d played literally any other open world game from the past 10 years they’d see how much it sucks

[unborn dome]

artifact

ricochet

[wheat sail]

Artifact spawned the twitch artifact session

Where people watch pirated movies!

[cunning geode]

hell yeah

[spare fractal]

Something that I didn't understand about Portal 2 is how it didn't get a T rating like the first game.

[cunning geode]

funny haha distracted the ESRB

[cunning geode]

oh no

i mean the top still looks cool

just less artistic

[weary tapir]

Remember when video games looked good back in 1956

[wheat sail]

The top also will stutter and will make your pc go 30 fps with top specs

[flat remnant]

_ _ *how *

[cunning geode]

yeah

trolling probably

[wheat sail]

Why'd you out so many spaces

[spare fractal]

I'd honestly say Portal 2's writing is on par or better than the first game.

[weary tapir]

Yeah it’s sad DD2 could have been GOTY contender but probably isn’t now due to a shit PC port and dumb misleading micro transactions

Pretty big fumble

[wheat sail]

Micro transaction to change your character and for fast travel

[flat remnant]

i'm going to remove space between you and your mom

[weary tapir]

You can earn the things in game they just didn’t communicate that and ppl went insane

[wheat sail]

Meanwhile in an interview they say you don't need fast travel if they make travelling fun

[kindred pewter]

"But the combat is peak"🤓

[weary tapir]

Haven’t played the game it’s probably good but man am I not buying it

[wheat sail]

Putting micro transactions for that in the first place is still gross

[spare fractal]

I am going to increase the space between your head and your neck >:)

[wheat sail]

Awwww

[weary tapir]

100% agree

[flat remnant]

..goes hard actually

[weary tapir]

I think the fact they exist in this game is enough to not support the game financially by any means

Especially since the single player game didn’t even launch with a “new game” option

Like what the fuck guys

[wheat sail]

I would consider it if I had a good pc and they had a 'redemption' like cyberpunk or no man's sky

[weary tapir]

And if you tried to delete your character manually via the files you would get a denuvo timeout

😭 like what were they thinking

Had a 20 minute argument with my friend about the new game thing and he said “they don’t let you start a new game since they want you to feel the consequences of your actions” and I called him a dumbass. And the next day the patch notes said they’re adding a “new game” option

So my friend HIGH on copium

[cunning geode]

holy shit what

[wheat sail]

Denuvo is the anti cheat thing

[cunning geode]

thats some real "haha you bought the game but you dont own it :P" bullshit right there

[weary tapir]

Literally

[wheat sail]

Especially cause it isn't even multiplayer

As I know

[opaque sigil]

It’s drm isn’t it

[weary tapir]

ITS A SINGLE PLAYER EXPERIENCE LET PEOPLE DO WHAT THEY WANT IN THEIR SINGLE PLAYER GAME!

[coarse leaf]

Yes

[violet path]

ea

[spare fractal]

denuvo is literally the only thing standing between me and buying persona 3 reload

[violet path]

whats denuvo

[wheat sail]

[spare fractal]

sega's drm

[weary tapir]

The worst thing on gods green earth

[violet path]

whats a drm

[nimble radish]

I heard you don't like microtransactions so I made them bigger

[violet path]

im quite uneducated as you can see

[nimble radish]

deep rock malactic 🙏

[coarse leaf]

Checking wheter or not you own a legitimate copy of the game

[wheat sail]

Digital Rights management, it doesn't let you use the software in an "unauthorized" way

[weary tapir]

It’s not specifically sega

[violet path]

whats wrong with that though

[coarse leaf]

I dont think its cracked

[cunning geode]

meanwhile id Software 4 years after releasing arguably the most influential game ever:

[opaque sigil]

It can have adverse performance effects

[spare fractal]

I just associate denuvo with them because of the whole sonic mania denuvo controversy

[weary tapir]

It can be wrong and lock you out of your video game and also effect performance

[violet path]

oh thats lame

is that why sometimes my frames drop on p3r even though i ran max graphics rdr2 and cyberpunk smoothly

[weary tapir]

Yeah probably

[coarse leaf]

The problem is that denuvo is ridiculously obtrusive and anticonsumer. It can cause performance problems, requires online connectivity( atleast for a bit ), can lock you out of the game if youre running things like proton

[weary tapir]

Like every AAA game ever uses it now

It’s really sad

[violet path]

ok thats much lamer then

punishing people that buy games legitametely and blocking the alternative

sounds like something netflix would do

[wheat sail]

Don't worry people vote with their wallets

[weary tapir]

Genuinely all it accomplishes is making people pirate the game more

[nimble radish]

talking of netflix theres this anime coming out

[weary tapir]

That’s all it ever does.

[coarse leaf]

No it doesnt

Denuvo is cracked by a single nutbag building their own telegram cult and no one else

[weary tapir]

I have seen SO many people aquire a game illegally simply bc denuvo is in it

[nimble radish]

you might have heard of it

[coarse leaf]

You cant

[opaque sigil]

Ah yes the people who make up excuses to justify deciding to pirate something

[coarse leaf]

Its a very good drm

[weary tapir]

I don’t pirate games!! I think it’s lame and cringe

[wheat sail]

Pirating doesn't need justification it's just right

[weary tapir]

but ik ppl who do whenever denuvo is in something

Bc they don’t shut up about it

[coarse leaf]

You cannot pirate the denuvo game

That is the whole point

[opaque sigil]

Unless the like one person who can crack them does it

[wheat sail]

I'll just learn how to crack it

[opaque sigil]

Which they don’t for everything

[wheat sail]

Doesn't seem simple

But if it's not hard it's not worth doing

Brb

[coarse leaf]

Yeah but theyre too busy going insane in their cult group chats

[nimble radish]

see you soon

[opaque sigil]

I’ve never really looked into them as a person is it bad

[coarse leaf]

[opaque sigil]

[coarse leaf]

im wondering why does this person even have their own wikipedia page ngl

[violet path]

is your gang crip or blood

[coarse leaf]

Theres something called nfo's in the crack scene, which is like little messages and branding in like a readme that groups put in their releases, and theirs are known to be incredibly unhinged. From racism to homophobia basically everything awful you can think of is in there

[fallen blaze]

💀

[wheat sail]

The one that pirates

[violet path]

we dont take too kindly to crips round here

[fallen blaze]

Yoooo

[coarse leaf]

god gives his smartest crackers his cringiest opinions

[wheat sail]

Nothing wrong. Since I don't have to justify it I won't elaborate

[violet path]

ok crip

[fallen blaze]

What's wrong with sailing the 7 seas

[coarse leaf]

Oh god the hogwarts legacy nfo

[violet path]

[wheat sail]

When Somali pirates attack battleship ☠️

[fallen blaze]

Goblin dn

[violet path]

idk much about hogwarts legacy but i remember when it came out

[nimble radish]

verdict: cringe

[coarse leaf]

I dont think i have the nfo saved anymore sadly

[coarse leaf]

she sacrificed basic human intellect for cracking denuvo

[violet path]

DAMN that period was over a fucking year ago how the fuck

[fallen blaze]

I know it has harry potter

[coarse leaf]

why did you have it saved before

It is

[coarse leaf]

Because its funny

[ivory sigil]

They help the main goblin villian so ye

[wheat sail]

People going wild over a game they weren't gonna buy anyway

[violet path]

i remember people were excited to use curses on their fellow students and teachers until the game came out and you werent allowed to

[wheat sail]

Never seen anyone here talking about Harry pottah till then

[violet path]

someome made a free avada kavada mod in like day 2

[fallen blaze]

Use. A spell in the game and it kills you irl

[violet path]

harry potter is heat

i saw the broadway show like 3 months ago

it was not heat

[nimble radish]

what I've heard about the play is it is excellent stagecraft but not a very good story

[violet path]

absolutely

[fallen blaze]

I could never read harry

[coarse leaf]

Lmao i can imagine, ive read the book, its uh.. no

[cunning geode]

yknow my brother actually saw daniel radcliffe on stage recently i forget what the performance was

[violet path]

well the story is alright on its own but like if youre a harry potter fan its insulting

[violet path]

the one with the horse

[wheat sail]

Like the creator is transphobic but then ever heard of separating the art from the artist? Don't gotta attack everyone who actually wants to play the game

[cunning geode]

ah he was in Merrily We Roll Along does that have a horse?

[fallen blaze]

Rick riordian

[nimble radish]

harry potter should have ended with the movies theres too much stuf

[violet path]

also i dont think rowling did the programming or modeling or animation or storyboarding or literally anything for the game

[violet path]

i disagree

[nimble radish]

like yeah people will keep buying it no matter what so they'lll keep making it

[violet path]

shouldve ended with the theme parks

[wheat sail]

No at most she got some royalties or whatever it's called for sales

[fallen blaze]

Harry potter multiverse

[violet path]

books, movies, and parks was perfect

[fallen blaze]

Hairy

[violet path]

the parks are still like awesome though

[nimble radish]

you're a salamander, harry

[violet path]

i dont understand whats so special about hairy otters.. arent they all covered in fur

[coarse leaf]

I havent been in the parks so idk, but yeah please kill it already

[fallen blaze]

Ur a hair otter

[violet path]

the story was about HARRY POTTER

[nimble radish]

regular otters are so ugly that they are never seen in public

[fallen blaze]

What the heck

https://tenor.com/view/hyper-excited-otter-excited-otter-gif-14795433060388223315

[violet path]

not harry potter's 4th cousin 7 times removed grandma's niece in law's adopted brother's goldfish's first owner

[wheat sail]

I thought broadways were supposed to be hgih quality

[nimble radish]

I get people being interested in the wider world of harry potter
but the background worldbuilding was pretty inconsistant from the beginning
which already sets up a problem

[violet path]

the quality is really good

and the acting and music

but like as a book which it also sold as..

[coarse leaf]

Yup, the whole fantastic beast thing is also just insulting

[violet path]

I FORGOT ABOUT FANTASTIC BEASTS LMAO

[fallen blaze]

That was harrypotter???

[violet path]

i actually kinda liked the first one it was charming and had a pretty intruiging story

[coarse leaf]

The book is atrocious

[coarse leaf]

Yeah the first one was fine

[nimble radish]

fantastic beasts was good when it was about, uh, fantastic beasts

[violet path]

then they made sequels

[coarse leaf]

And then they made more

Lmao exactly

[violet path]

arent they also making a harry potter disney+ show

similar to what they did with percy jackson

[fallen blaze]
