[flat remnant]

not really into anything matt greoning

[tawdry socket]

Makes sense

[opaque sigil]

Bojack horseman tho

[strange night]

Didn't hold up compared to the originals imo

[flat remnant]

i'm sure it's fine but personally i can't stand the artstyle and the comedy is just okay

[strange night]

They were okay though

[flat remnant]

more drama comedy

[faint hazel]

couldnt get into futurama

[tawdry socket]

DEFINITLEY. But it was still good imo

[faint hazel]

but i will eventually

[wheat sail]

what did they do to you neat hweat

[strange night]

I also use it for boondocks, documentaries (to fall asleep to), and all of the old DC cartoons

[flat remnant]

heard they made an nft joke two years after they become irrelevant

[opaque sigil]

I tend to think of it as black comedy a lot but fair enough

[strange night]

Batman the animated series, Batman beyond, Justice League unlimited, they were all peak

[faint hazel]

they put chemicals into the waters

[flat remnant]

so real

[tawdry socket]

Yeah that episode sucked but otherwise the ones ive watched were pretty good

Not sucked it just wasnt good

[flat remnant]

speaking of media on hbo gonna be honest i did not care for teen titans 2003

[faint hazel]

me when adventure time

[fiery burrow]

the beginning was boring so i didn't bother

[faint hazel]

hk reference

[tawdry socket]

Adventure time is just very confusing to me

[flat remnant]

a sibling liked it and i kept watching for them but it's just not a very great show

pretty standard

[fiery burrow]

hk is like so bad its good. ya love to hate it

[tawdry socket]

Whats hk

[faint hazel]

honk kong

[flat remnant]

hadventure kime

[fiery burrow]

adventure time is bad if you're watching it for story

[wheat sail]

ccp agrees. hong kong not a big deal

🕵️

[fiery burrow]

the story is good but its an episodic show

[opaque sigil]

For a lot of it yeah

[tawdry socket]

Adventure time is meh in like every aspect of the show except for music

[faint hazel]

watching a story not for the story but for the gumball man 🔥

[wheat sail]

too bad music isnt important in shows

[young saffron]

WHAT

[flat remnant]

damn not even the characters the animation the comedy

[young saffron]

There was alot of good building for adventure times story

[fiery burrow]

story is a side dish up until season 8

[young saffron]

oaky thats a fair point

[tawdry socket]

The comedy is good but not good good

[faint hazel]

pissedkoth looks like ponder

[strange night]

Tbh yeah

[wheat sail]

adventure time comedy is like putting two mice in a jug of milk and watching them struggle till they churn it into butter

[flat remnant]

https://tenor.com/view/cartoon-adventure-time-bonk-magic-man-gif-25600323

[strange night]

It was just kind of okay
And the way it ended was terrible

[flat remnant]

no i like the ending

[fiery burrow]

AT is good character based comedy

[young saffron]

what did yall grow up on?

[flat remnant]

pbs kids

[faint hazel]

ben 10

[tawdry socket]

I cant tell what vharacter traits the characters have half the time

[flat remnant]

shaun the sheep and veggietales

[narrow prawn]

i use them because i can bypass the pirating websites on my phone when i have screentime limits at night lol

[young saffron]

spongebob, chowder, ben 10, adventure time, gumball, flapjack]

[flat remnant]

maybe that's a you problem bub

https://tenor.com/view/klasik-clasik-clasic-gif-25398314

[fiery burrow]

speaking of I watched the stop motion AT episode like a few days ago

[tawdry socket]

And the animation is just... An animation, not much flair and style to how its done

[strange night]

PBS kids for the most part

[fiery burrow]

was peak

[narrow prawn]

phineas and ferb, pokemon, total drama island

more lemme think

[flat remnant]

i thought it was fine but that's largely because i dislike beast boy

[strange night]

My parents wouldn't pay for cable outside of the basic package with PBS so that's what I was stuck with

[flat remnant]

shame i thought i'd love him but i ended up not having a favorite

[fiery burrow]

character designs are good

[young saffron]

the bad vibes episode?

[tawdry socket]

Dantdm and poppularmmos

[fiery burrow]

the one with the storm

[narrow prawn]

avatar the last airbender

gravity falls peak shows

[flat remnant]

my parents made us have pbs since spongebob was too vulgar and whatnot and pbs was educational

[young saffron]

yes the heebi jeebies, bad juubies, not lit vibe

[flat remnant]

odd squad was peak shit though

[narrow prawn]

Odd squad and the wildkratts were goated

[flat remnant]

get off your phone and use it to smash the glass or something bozo

[narrow prawn]

call 911 fr

[tight storm]

call the knight

[flat remnant]

odd squad was seriously the only pbs show with any real production value everything else was puppets or rigged animation

[young saffron]

can we talk about how spongebob s1-3 was so PEAK

[faint hazel]

hold on, wtf is this

[young saffron]

Some of the episodes still make me laugh..

[tight storm]

he is grub

[narrow prawn]

i never knew much about ksi but i hate him now no one messes with dantdm

[strange night]

I got to watch real cartoons at my grandma's house though because she had cable, I watched a lot of SpongeBob and Steven universe there

[young saffron]

steven universe was good but the newer seasons were so ass

[fiery burrow]

KSI was right DanTDM was being a hypocrite

[young saffron]

its just steven bitching and crying 24/7

[cunning geode]

https://tenor.com/view/crashbox-gif-23143879

[narrow prawn]

such truth

[keen copper]

Wrong channel

[faint hazel]

right when?? he made like 20 responses

[fiery burrow]

it was good for like season 1 & 2

[narrow prawn]

i never watched steven universe

[fiery burrow]

[wheat sail]

[keen copper]

I didn't know

[young saffron]

😭

[narrow prawn]

[tawdry socket]

Hes like 11 years old

[young saffron]

should've known before hand. Now you get the hammers

[tawdry socket]

What do you expec

[narrow prawn]

steven universe is sans

[fiery burrow]

steven universe glazers explaining why its OK for the show to forgive white diamond because the genocide was actually a family issue

[young saffron]

man up

[faint hazel]

starpe never elaborating

[tawdry socket]

😭

[fiery burrow]

the one where he was doing the uhh um

[wheat sail]

[young saffron]

https://tenor.com/view/memeteam-gif-11956853679210748804

[narrow prawn]

idiot ksi was always right trust

[wheat sail]

[flat remnant]

steven is like shinji but bad

[narrow prawn]

if you dont like ksi you should be banned from life

[fiery burrow]

ok but the new song lowkey isn't bad? got me groovin

[wheat sail]

got me throwing it back

[young saffron]

its like a 5? ish

ppl r totally force hating on it lol

[fiery burrow]

its nothing crazy but its fun

[narrow prawn]

🥶 🐺

[flat remnant]

next you'll be talking about how good the talk tuah podcast is

[narrow prawn]

5/10?

[young saffron]

yes

[faint hazel]

its rated higher than breaking bad for a reason

[wheat sail]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=At8v_Yc044Y im in the thick of it everyone knows

[narrow prawn]

isnt that trash

[fiery burrow]

I'd give it a 6/10

[young saffron]

its avg

[tawdry socket]

The hate is forced tbh but the song is nothing special. Its the most eh thing ive heard

[wheat sail]

6 nowadays is bad

[narrow prawn]

the way i rate things anything belof 7/10 is bad

[young saffron]

Its cause KSI ego is so funny to see lol

[wheat sail]

when everything decent is 8+

[olive bobcat]

Mid is the new trash

[narrow prawn]

my brother has the weirdest rating system

like 3/10 is mid for him

[flat remnant]

the hate is because ksi is being really immature about one dantdm tweet and in general doesn't seem like a good guy and hating the song is a way to get back at him, at least from what i'm getting

[narrow prawn]

man i listened to that song either way it belonged in a dump somewhere

[tawdry socket]

Yeah and thats the main reason its getting hate

Also cuz its just not that great of a song

[wheat sail]

ksi is probably milking it for attention

[flat remnant]

true

[fiery burrow]

ksi hangs out with mr beast and logan paul he can't be a pleasant dude

[wheat sail]

also dantdm is a weirdo having a family and shit

[narrow prawn]

shocker

[narrow prawn]

real i couldnt imagine having a family

[flat remnant]

a while ago he made a video where he roleplayed a rape scenario and said a trans slur

[tawdry socket]

Uhh anyways have any of u heard of enter the gungeon

[flat remnant]

ya is good

[tawdry socket]

EHAT RHE FUCK

[fiery burrow]

https://tenor.com/view/garn47-car-friend-47-cat-gif-10559311817517955763

Plz tell me this was like 10 years ago or smth

[flat remnant]

i think 2018/19 or something?

[leaden delta]

ksi being bad

This is nothing new

[young saffron]

ksi song holiday was pretty good tho

[wheat sail]

ayo?

[flat remnant]

oh the slur thing is an ongoing thing it seems

[tawdry socket]

I hope he changed

[leaden delta]

nah they suck

[young saffron]

a few users got the demo build of silksong a while back

[leaden delta]

this is why we listen to good artists

[young saffron]

cause they have been a part of the community for a long ass time

[tawdry socket]

O

[leaden delta]

Like kendrick

[olive bobcat]

I am as old as an elm

[young saffron]

check the mod ttaco bio, he too is playing it

[young saffron]

aluo can you post another screenshot of silksong pleaseeee

its been so long

[narrow prawn]

what the actual hell

[harsh yarrow]

Failed Champion without nail 1+ is very pain

[wheat sail]

https://tenor.com/view/saul-goodman-gif-24305672

[narrow prawn]

that games been out for a while what are you trying to show us?

[fiery burrow]

is this a discussion or a silkpost

[harsh yarrow]

I still stand by the fact that you should've used the grimm-style background from the first game

[cunning geode]

https://open.spotify.com/track/3sjKNgbbNPMQpsChNklsk6?si=-Lz53PYHSGKmkopLBz32nw&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A5EtOz1coYqUDCxqXPwkB8W byeahhh…

[harsh yarrow]

probably could find a gif of just the background, and get it to be even more believable

[olive bobcat]

Wdym

Why would I do that

[harsh yarrow]

Bait used to be believable

[flat remnant]

opens reddit out of boredom
"AITA for removing my pregnant wife's fucking grubby hands off-"
i made a mistake

[harsh yarrow]

oh god no please no

[flat remnant]

grimm iconic character from silksong

[tawdry socket]

What?

[olive bobcat]

Is this what you wanted

[harsh yarrow]

Grimms story is done, I dont want him back

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah

[olive bobcat]

Ok

[cunning geode]

give us the granddad silksong menu background

[olive bobcat]

Cool I guess

[narrow prawn]

why do you guys care about silksong so much

it sucks i played it so bad

[cunning geode]

who is silksong

[flat remnant]

that's what i've been sayinggg

[young saffron]

my heart runs on silksong

[narrow prawn]

literally a glitchy mess

[fiery burrow]

i dont got anything better to do

except get excited for mhwilds

[narrow prawn]

the game mustve been written in a block code thing r smthn

seriously and the exploration sucks

each area is bland

and the bosses all suck

the story is so bad like when ||the hollow knight is actually laces son|| and says the silksong is teh friends we made along the way

[harsh yarrow]

Its the one seen in the E3 demos all those years back

I assume that it was quite litterally just borrowed from the first game

[olive bobcat]

No

It's a different background

[narrow prawn]

i thnkii t loos cool

[coarse leaf]

what happening in hollowcordia

[harsh yarrow]

Is it really?

[olive bobcat]

Yes

[young saffron]

CHAT 5 MROE DAYS FOR SILKSONG NEWWWS

[harsh yarrow]

Ah I guess
Quite close, though

[coarse leaf]

why is there another sharky

[harsh yarrow]

No no, gotta start that december 7th

[olive bobcat]

https://youtu.be/ZqFG_h7kXEg

[harsh yarrow]

Continue daily until Feb 9th

you, without fail, will not be incorrect once

[harsh yarrow]

Okay, there, its quite close

[faint hazel]

ew ss discussion talking about ss

[olive bobcat]

Similar, not the same

[wheat sail]

guy gettin cooked by lace

[olive bobcat]

Should've just kicked him off the demo tbh

[harsh yarrow]

Its a bit darker and the sparks are less bright and common

[olive bobcat]

Cool

[fiery burrow]

man HK's menu sucks in comparison

[young saffron]

Fight to the death winner keeps the name

[harsh yarrow]

This confirms my theory

[fiery burrow]

nothing interesting going on

[olive bobcat]

Of

[harsh yarrow]

That uh
Silksong menu dev was finished after grimm troupe

The Edge Magazine article said that they did start Silksong dev before they released HK

[narrow prawn]

did the team cherry say that silksong wuold be much bigger than hallownest

[harsh yarrow]

Though im pretty sure that was concepting

[marsh ibex]

that’s a blast from the past

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah- it is

[narrow prawn]

ok

[marsh ibex]

No

[harsh yarrow]

~twice the size

[narrow prawn]

what

[harsh yarrow]

Due to hornet being uh, twice the height

[marsh ibex]

they never said anything like that

[fiery burrow]

it has to be bigger necessarily because of her size and speed but the content density probably isn't twice the size

[harsh yarrow]

Is it just community assumption?

[marsh ibex]

yes

[narrow prawn]

i recall them saying at some point that it would at least be bigger than the first game

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah, same

[narrow prawn]

anyway we can assume it will probably be bigger

[marsh ibex]

It’s a fair assumption to make but they never actually made any claims of that nature

[harsh yarrow]

Content density seems like it will be a bit better

[narrow prawn]

becuase of the fact that there are many towns

[fiery burrow]

i hope they focus more on quality over quantity

[marsh ibex]

I want better towns

Dirtmouth sicks

[harsh yarrow]

Least the vendor pins should be more useful... theres only 3 outside of Dirtmouth and two are basically next to each other XD

[narrow prawn]

def will

[weary tapir]

I am shaking in excitement

[marsh ibex]

because elderbug sucks

[fiery burrow]

Like enemy design that doesn't suck

[weary tapir]

We are so close to video game

[marsh ibex]

They were cooking with goomba plus

[narrow prawn]

i hope this gamehas hard combat

[weary tapir]

mmmmm jrpg

[narrow prawn]

like more difficult than the first i mean

[young saffron]

what is this? like where is it from

[narrow prawn]

cus hk is pretty difficult

[fiery burrow]

edge mag

[marsh ibex]

it’s a pretty easy base game

[weary tapir]

It’s only rly hard in the expansions

[narrow prawn]

since most players have prolly gotten most of the combat down

[marsh ibex]

honestly I want less boring comnat

[harsh yarrow]

The only diffucult enemy in the first game are the big hoppers and primal aspids

The rest are quite easy to breeze through

[fiery burrow]

they plan for the game to be similar difficulty, its meant to be accessible to new players as well

[weary tapir]

Godhome Grimm and the white palace are the only hard things rly

[harsh yarrow]

Thats why Silk Soul exists

[narrow prawn]

true true i keep forgetting about the base game after basically living in godhome

[fiery burrow]

you'll still probably be challenged since its an unfamiliar combat system and the enemies are different

[strange night]

Honestly I want to be enough to make myself and the people around me happy

[harsh yarrow]

White Palace was a pita first time through

[weary tapir]

I didn’t have a hard time with it at all

[harsh yarrow]

It was alot faster the second time through XD

[weary tapir]

I also played a lot of 2D platformers though

So idk

[young saffron]

I should read it

[harsh yarrow]

Couldnt manage Path of Pain, though

[young saffron]

OENONE SAY CELESTE????

[narrow prawn]

the combat looks much better tbh due to all the different moves hornet can do

[weary tapir]

I got the moonberry 🙂

[fiery burrow]

combat is better because they added a taunt

[harsh yarrow]

The only thing im somewhat iffy on is Hornets pogo

[narrow prawn]

they did?

[young saffron]

very cool, I think that makes you a pretty decent player

[fiery burrow]

yeah, its in the demo

[harsh yarrow]

hornets base pogo*

[weary tapir]

On a switch

[fiery burrow]

hornets pogo is dope

[narrow prawn]

k

[young saffron]

okay you are a really good player 😭

[weary tapir]

With joycons

[fiery burrow]

its just better

[weary tapir]

It was miserable

[harsh yarrow]

Its more interesting overall, but less useful I'd think

[fiery burrow]

you can do pretty much the same stuff

[narrow prawn]

i quit cleste after i almost beat golden ridge but then my xbox didnt save it lol that level was boring and i didnt wnat to do it again

[harsh yarrow]

Chaining pogos on one enemy and some skips will be impossible though

that'd be simple in the first game

[fiery burrow]

thats probably for the better. the game shouldn't be very aerial imo

[harsh yarrow]

Like using the gruzfly in the forgotten crossroads to get to the mask shard early

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah

[fiery burrow]

did someone mention the underrated hidden indie gem celeste?

[versed pollen]

What are you trying to do here

[harsh yarrow]

It'll probably be far more situational

[weary tapir]

I also did this so idk

[narrow prawn]

were those pogo skips intentional? i think some must have been

[weary tapir]

Does this make me good

[fiery burrow]

this level is so dope

[versed pollen]

The one in Watcher's Spire is definitely intentional

[fiery burrow]

one of the best in that lobby

[harsh yarrow]

I doubt it

[carmine island]

@flat remnant

[harsh yarrow]

Maybe, that is the one that'd I think is unintentional but just left in

its cool speedrunning stuff

[narrow prawn]

in some rooms there are like aspids that die in 3 hits on normal nail where you can skip that might be intentional

[fiery burrow]

i liked the deep blue level and the snowy one as well

[weary tapir]

It stings my eyes…

But it is awesome

[fiery burrow]

didn't fw it like beginner or advanced though

[versed pollen]

Int lobby had that one with the blocks you can push and that was the only good int map actually

[weary tapir]

The bee hive level in beginner was fire

Was it treehive or something

[versed pollen]

You're stupid and should be killed for this

[harsh yarrow]

But anyways, I assume that Silksong will be a cool experience

[fiery burrow]

w hy are there so many beehive levels 😭

[weary tapir]

The one with the honey space blocks

[versed pollen]

Because bees are awesome

[weary tapir]

That one rocked

[versed pollen]

There should have been one in each lobby

[harsh yarrow]

Really curious about the very defined quests- Hollow Knight has... 12? but you'd never think to call them quests

[fiery burrow]

advanced goated though? it has undergrowth and the tower xvi

[versed pollen]

Hmmm... perhaps you might not be killed....

[fiery burrow]

Beginner has the one blue bubble level and a gift from the stars

[narrow prawn]

i am excited for more in depth side quests

[harsh yarrow]

The only one that is actively quest-feeling is getting the grimkin flames

[young saffron]

the sbj level where you had to dash in a specific sequence was my worst

[harsh yarrow]

I HATE getting the flames

[flat remnant]

https://tenor.com/view/nichijou-break-dancing-gif-26300217

[weary tapir]

This level has a banger song https://youtu.be/ucCOkt19eWw?si=XSpVBbmiiR8ocmIM

[versed pollen]

I don't even care about gameplay in beginner lobbies half the time it's all the same dude

[harsh yarrow]

There should be a mod to skip it

[fiery burrow]

when this hits
https://youtu.be/OVVfjgImr3I?t=185

[wheat sail]

celeste strawberry jam 🤦‍♂️

[weary tapir]

Kirb hates modded Celeste

[young saffron]

why?

[versed pollen]

Kirb is a troll and I have never managed to decipher his real opinions on SJ ever

[fiery burrow]

this is why dropzle exists

[wheat sail]

why would i troll you

[weary tapir]

"poor level design"

[versed pollen]

It's fun

[narrow prawn]

celeste is so bad fortnite is better

[weary tapir]

not my words

[harsh yarrow]

fortnite isnt a trans icon, so this is false

[wheat sail]

nah theyre about equal

[olive bobcat]

Well maybe the level design would be good if it weren't poor

[versed pollen]

And then I just fell into the pixel perfect gaps anyways

[weary tapir]

stupid fuck ass time stop puzzle holy hell

[harsh yarrow]

There isnt a mod for it, sad

[weary tapir]

FUCK STOP GIVING ME PTSD

[harsh yarrow]

Debug mod cant even do it im pretty sure

[versed pollen]

DON'T SAY THAT

[weary tapir]

WITH THIS SONG

[fiery burrow]

i gave up on that for the final puzzle

[versed pollen]

Star we might have to kill Neeko for this one....

[fiery burrow]

i liked it

[weary tapir]

it was fun

[fiery burrow]

once i understood how time stop worked anyways

[versed pollen]

Survive another day

[weary tapir]

but I literally couldnt figure out the last one at first

[fiery burrow]

felt like a genius

[weary tapir]

had to go out to dinner with family

[narrow prawn]

anyone know what the last update from team cherry was?

[versed pollen]

I couldn't figure out one of the bonus rooms I think

[weary tapir]

sat at the dinner table not eating and just thinking about the puzzle

[harsh yarrow]

2024

[weary tapir]

went back home

[fiery burrow]

?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.

[versed pollen]

It's Leth's pinned message I think

[weary tapir]

THEN did the puzzle

[harsh yarrow]

Theres a newer one

[weary tapir]

I literally like didnt eat that day bc all I did at the dinner table was think about the fucking puzzle

[versed pollen]

My favourite songs in SJ are the blow up your mind EDM songs though. I dunno if you guys like that music

[harsh yarrow]

Here

[versed pollen]

Probably because it's peak

[harsh yarrow]

Its a nothingburger and a half

[fiery burrow]

shoutout to that stupid pacman level in int

[wheat sail]

theyre working hard woooo

[narrow prawn]

why are tcs release dates always changed are thye making the game bigger? im not complaining just swondering

[harsh yarrow]

But 2023 is the last time TC offically spoke about Silksong

[weary tapir]

it was peak just traumatizing levels of peak

[versed pollen]

EAT GIRL is SO FUNNY I love it

[wheat sail]

creative difficulties probably

[harsh yarrow]

Its completely unknown

[weary tapir]

anyways I liked the kevin puzzles better

[wheat sail]

only explanation, silksong aint technologically advanced

[weary tapir]

Thought they were hilarious

[harsh yarrow]

Scope creep is my guess, and their seeming love of releases in feburary doesnt help

[fiery burrow]

stressed me out but I started liking it for the final rooms

[narrow prawn]

well i mean the team is pretty smallso understandable

[olive bobcat]

When it comes to bad puzzles and my opponent is Kevin:

[harsh yarrow]

They released Hollow Knight when they did because they were kinda out of money

[wheat sail]

i do not understand so 🧍‍♂️

[fiery burrow]

best puzzle level is xvi

[harsh yarrow]

They dont have that restriction anymore

[versed pollen]

This is my favourite song in SJ though https://youtu.be/iiJBsJQxaek

[wheat sail]

celeste puzzles pffft

[fiery burrow]

matt sexton is cracked

[weary tapir]

was it the spring collab that had the kevin temple level

and the music was just kevin noises

[wheat sail]

they will develop till they have no money again

[versed pollen]

Spring Collab had Temple of Kevins and Crypt of Kevins

[harsh yarrow]

lol

[weary tapir]

yeah temple of kevins was elite

[versed pollen]

SJ had kevintechspam.bin

[harsh yarrow]

They just might
But sadly people still buy Hollow Knight

[narrow prawn]

weird to say but im glad to hear tht hk was released early and it was still such a good game so silksong will have to be fantastic

[harsh yarrow]

Im praying that they'll give a release date in feburary 2025

But I fully expect another "hey, we're still working"

[versed pollen]

Have you heard quadratic's music

[narrow prawn]

why itl just move again

[versed pollen]

That shit is actually beyond

[young saffron]

dev hell

[narrow prawn]

QUADRATIC EQUATION?!?!!?!?

[harsh yarrow]

No, not dev hell

[weary tapir]

I asked for the release date like 3 years ago and didn't get it so I just went down the JRPG rabbit hole and now i'm waiting 2 hours to waste another 80 hours in metaphor

[harsh yarrow]

Dev hell implies problems with the development- Im pretty sure its just scope creep

[cerulean sable]

i think celeste would be better if it had combat

like Madeline finds a 1911 early game and 200 pistol ammo

[young saffron]

dev hell

[versed pollen]

You wouldn't fucking believe this

[wheat sail]

noooo they cant be in dev hell because theres no evidence of it!!!

[cerulean sable]

please do tell

[weary tapir]

team cherry made me like persona blame them

[narrow prawn]

at this rate someones just gon mod silksong into hk

[harsh yarrow]

They've got money, time, and a community that is mostly all for them taking all the time they want

[narrow prawn]

lel

[cerulean sable]

also technically they saw HK to be incomplete

[versed pollen]

https://gamebanana.com/mods/53757

[cerulean sable]

and they only viewed HK complete after Godmaster

[harsh yarrow]

At launch?

[cerulean sable]

yeah

[wheat sail]

half their dev tim,e has been arguing to get more team members but ari wants a bigger share of money

[weary tapir]

guneline pales in comparison to mikuline

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah, still I kinda hope they do an update or two a few years after Silksong

I really want that Abyss expansion

[cerulean sable]

they literally launched cuz they ran out of money lol
and they saw launch HK to be "incomplete" in their eyes

the Hive didnt even have a boss and Traitor Lord was a bitch in the weak sense

[wheat sail]

hornet discovers the truth of her powers and being

[cerulean sable]

BASED

[weary tapir]

what was that one unofficial hollow knight expansion the community made

[wheat sail]

nothing to shoot at ...

[harsh yarrow]

Its also kinda sad that glorified charms didnt work out

[versed pollen]

Pale Court

[weary tapir]

was it good

[harsh yarrow]

glorified charms would've been interesting

[versed pollen]

I haven't finished it

[harsh yarrow]

but easily broken

[weary tapir]

does it feel like it fits in the original game I guess I should say

[harsh yarrow]

I just cheated through all the bosses to see the charms they rewarded

I was really unimpressed

[weary tapir]

like are the bosses well designed to feel authentic

[versed pollen]

I don't think they feel authentic but they were pretty good

[harsh yarrow]

If they had the art from Ari it'd go a long way to feeling authentic

[versed pollen]

I don't think that's true

[harsh yarrow]

they did a good job replicating the feel, but its not quite there

[weary tapir]

ig my concern is is it like bullshit kaizo fan made stuff or actual attempts at expanding the game

[cerulean sable]

yeah but at that point they were like

"man balancing all of it is a huge work, lets just fucking cut it and just make Silksong instead"

[olive bobcat]

@tawdry valley more art for you m'lord

[cerulean sable]

which is honestly for the best lol

[harsh yarrow]

Which is honestly fair

[versed pollen]

Because HK's code is a moshpit of chaos and so there's virtually no way of telling what the proper swing and animation easing on hitboxes usually follow

[cerulean sable]

idrc eitherway because whats important is my life long dream of seeing "new weapons that changes your attack style" in Silksong came true in the form of crests

[harsh yarrow]

Like how they've broken flukenest every update in new and interesting ways!

[weary tapir]

I might play it if its not like super giga mega absolute radiance with 10 trillion lasers mod made for the 1%

[strange night]

Shut up

[versed pollen]

Surely Silksong will be better coded (it won't)

[wheat sail]

hornet gets the blue shell from new super mario bros

[cerulean sable]

went from "man imagine if you can have different weapons in Silksong that changes your attacks, nah that would be too much work lol" and then it came true 🥴

[harsh yarrow]

New Weapons seems like a cool idea... until you think about it

[versed pollen]

It's not. It was specifically playtested to not be

[weary tapir]

thank god

[versed pollen]

All the bosses are AR diff or slightly above, save for one, I think

[cerulean sable]

it already is though, just in the form of crests, and balancing the game around the crest changes is a huge undertaking

[harsh yarrow]

If you do new weapons that feel different than others, you have to spend time making multiple weapons work and feel good, rather than making one weapon feel really good to use

[cerulean sable]

i think 4-5 crests is good enough

[harsh yarrow]

Creasts avoid it by not completely replacing the Needle

[cerulean sable]

yeah but, gameplaywise it functionally IS the equivalent of new weapons

[harsh yarrow]

And the artifacts(?) mod works similarly, though its very much a mod and broken

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah, I guess

Yeah, true

[cerulean sable]

but instead of "you get a different weapon with a different attack pattern" its just the same but now its excused as needle aura

[wheat sail]

true and yeah thats true and true

[harsh yarrow]

Creasts will be cool

[cerulean sable]

my only issue with crests is how theyre gonna balance it around platforming cuz it massively changes your pogo ability

[versed pollen]

Anyways I never got to chance to send it before. But if you like polyrhythms you should listen to this song https://youtu.be/iSrFnpm8xq4

[harsh yarrow]

Can you upgrade them or something?
It'd be kinda sad to get an early game crest that doesnt have all the tool slots of a late game crest

But is really fun to use

[cerulean sable]

i think leth mentioned it

that crests are more like playstyle changes

rather than something you "replace and upgrade by getting another crest"
so with that implication, that means all crest must be at least viable to clear the game cuz youre gonna choose what fits your playstyle rather than actively looking for a new crest everytime

[harsh yarrow]

True

They'll be interesting either way

[cerulean sable]

and i think it was mentioned you COULD upgrade them individually to some extent? not sure when they said this tho

[harsh yarrow]

Just cause you can get Fragile Strength earlier than Heavy Blow doesnt mean Heavy Blow is stronger XD

[unborn dome]

theory time
silksong is probably taking so so long because of the art
gameplay must be mostly done by now
ari is just taking a long time because of how much more detailed they decided to make the silksong environments

[cerulean sable]

yeah the open exploration of a game can have pacing impact

[versed pollen]

Curse of bells

[cerulean sable]

man thats not even a theory

you can see the difference in edge with the new scorchmarks

[harsh yarrow]

thats always the hold up on minecraft mods XD

[cerulean sable]

and that was YEARS ago

[unborn dome]

game theorizing

[harsh yarrow]

Well, depends
Theres 2 cases- the artists without a coder
And the coders without an artist

[cerulean sable]

theyre not fucking around the art and the more vibrant palette means Ari can go fucking safety off

[harsh yarrow]

Im sadly in the second, working with a really skilled coder but not being a good artist

[vivid belfry]

They're doing thr ultrakill act 1 makeover thing but they forgot they're not in early access

[cerulean sable]

yeah speaking of which, theres a lot of games EA games that often does these major updates to put the earlier stuff up to speed

[harsh yarrow]

Some just minecraft stuff thats cool

[cerulean sable]

thats not really a case for Silksong cuz ya know, its not on EA or on a release date either 🥴

[harsh yarrow]

Moth Dress girl who I will likely turn into a hollow knight OC and an ender dragon that can properly funtion on the ground :3

Not as a human, but moph

My current idea is to try and tow the line between vessel and moth, as I really like the vessels ascetics

But vessel OCs are everywhere, and I want something a bit different

I was also thinking a Nail-Lance as opposed to a Needle, its my understanding that Hornets Needle is kinda one of a kind

the whole explaination as to why forge daugter can upgrade it is her experience with pins, which are pharlooms nail equivelent

Sadly, there isnt good references for pins as there are for needles

Other than maybe being laces weapon?

[weary tapir]

Yo the sky is red

Check this shit out

[digital junco]

its coming

[harsh yarrow]

weaksause

Its the great hornet in the sky

its her red cloak

this must be a sign of the second comming of hornet

[viral crane]

In the opening cutscene is there a seal of binding on the cage??

[fiery burrow]

saw a bit of red in the sky. was neat

[fiery burrow]

just a regular ol seal

seal of bindings are a bit more of a specific design

[spare fractal]

I'm gonna be going to sleep now

good night everyone

[viral crane]

How did a lumafoy break the seal

[fiery burrow]

Specifically this. Its used to contain or preserve something

[fiery burrow]

Thats not a lumafly its a new magical fly

We don't know how they work just yet, but they probably play a semi-important role in the story

[harsh yarrow]

They look like big lumaflys

[viral crane]

Oh

Do you start with some form of mantis claw?

Or is it just pushing yourself up a ledge?

[harsh yarrow]

No, I dont think so

[fiery burrow]

Nah, your base kit is basically Hollow Knight but with a sprint button and a ledge climb

[harsh yarrow]

Hornet doesnt seem to have a wall jump or dash at the start

[viral crane]

Ledge climb is what's I thought was mantis claw

Why can't you automatically do things like, grappling hook needle, the spinning silk around you, and stuff like that

[harsh yarrow]

I think its the whole you just fell from a great height and survived

[fiery burrow]

Hornet lost most of her spells due to her time spent in the cage you see in the opening cutscene

[harsh yarrow]

Hornets lost a good deal of her kit

[fiery burrow]

||"Part of what’s Hornet’s doing is she’s lost her traditional strength because of the time spent bound in this cage you saw in the introduction,” Gibson says, “And she’s sort of restoring it, and the Weavers – or what remains of them in this land – are helping her.”||

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah

Its a cool concept

I also blame that as to why shes lost so much health XD

[fiery burrow]

That and TC doesn't really care about health values

Ogrim punching you does the same amount of damage as a tiktik, apparently

[olive bobcat]

Weak mindset: I totally just failed that test
Strong mindset: I totally just failed that test 😎

[wheat sail]

Team cherry doesn't value my health

Expected I guess

[harsh yarrow]

The whole masks thing doesnt make much sense

its very clearly mechanical in nature with a bit of lore on it

[wheat sail]

She's behind me, isn't she

[harsh yarrow]

Nail 0 Flukemarm, thoughts?

Good idea right, totally?

nopp

[wheat sail]

My fav character

[viral crane]

Oooh

[viral crane]

The truth
It shatters (temporarily) one mask
And you're just wearing a whole bunch

How does hornet get silk from hitting ppl
At least getting soul made sense

[harsh yarrow]

Kinda

Considering the spells the knight casts the Soul Sanctums methods were really inefficent

[wheat sail]

What can you do

[harsh yarrow]

just use a nail smh

[viral crane]

Knights special tho

[harsh yarrow]

yeah

Damn, all 3?

I assume they're just having some fun there, good on them!

[pliant torrent]

Leth took a flight cuz he lives in usa i think

[harsh yarrow]

Last time it was only 2 of them, no?

At the event in Japan

[neon adder]

Hope they’re having fun

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah

[pliant torrent]

William is missing on the photo and also jack

[harsh yarrow]

They probably need a break from Silksong XD

if not just from the psycho community

[olive bobcat]

William is left on the photo
I don't think that's William

[harsh yarrow]

I can already see Primacons next video

[pliant torrent]

I hope they are all okay c: these photos are good to see

[pliant torrent]

Like its missing* sorry

[harsh yarrow]

Last time they were spotted outside of the office he was so onto "this means they're winding down and are going to events now which means game is almost done!"

[slate wagon]

damn game development has not been kind to him

[harsh yarrow]

They're just being good devs and doing networking and supporting other indie games... relax

[olive bobcat]

imo they're being bad devs, all they do is netslacking and opposing other indie games

[harsh yarrow]

tragedy

[wheat sail]

behind this guy

its ari

[frozen frigate]

Hi guys steel heart is going well guys

[harsh yarrow]

Im currently doing a steel soul run

[frozen frigate]

I was so scared of doing this until I realised it's a whole 20 hours and I only need to fight thk ONCE with as many upgrades as I want

[harsh yarrow]

Got to 100% last time, went to defeat the Hollow Knight...

[olive bobcat]

Could beat a steel soul run in 20 minutes rn if I wanted

[harsh yarrow]

and went for Dream No More like an idiot

[frozen frigate]

And dying there is permanent?

[harsh yarrow]

Yep

[frozen frigate]

Nonsensical

Unplayable game

Fix your game TC.

[harsh yarrow]

No, if you'd wake up the Hollow Knight would almost certainly be able to fuck you up quicker lol

[cerulean sable]

i like the idea that TC has no fucking goddamn clue nor do they care about the growing insanity

and i mean this as a good thing

[frozen frigate]

What

Why did you even bother with voidheart on steel soul anyway

[harsh yarrow]

Its a percent towards completeion

[frozen frigate]

Well nevermind I don't think you were doing what I am

[harsh yarrow]

The last steam achivemnt I want is steel heart

Which is reaching 100% and then beating the game

[heavy mason]

Leth does

He prob tells them

[frozen frigate]

I never would have known this if it weren't for your clarification just now thankyou so much

Quitting this playthrough immediately to start shaking and crying

[harsh yarrow]

Theres the other one

which is just beating the game on Steel Soul
I've already done that

[frozen frigate]

I'm doing those 2 in one run

As well as speed completion

[harsh yarrow]

Lol, I did the same

[frozen frigate]

And then my other 4 achievements are just for the split choices you can make

[harsh yarrow]

after dying in Cpeaks to the funny laser bugs I finally got a run all the way to THK

[frozen frigate]

Killing nailsmith, banishing tmg, fighting gpz and fighting zote in colo 1 are my remaining achievements

[frozen frigate]

I died literally the exact same way my previous attempt

I was in the room with all of the laser bugs going around a single platform

[harsh yarrow]

I died to the one right about the deep focus challange room

[frozen frigate]

Didn't realise my masks were so low and foolishly got stick in the pickup animation as a laser bug wiped me out

I have hope for this run though

No close calls so far in areas I couldn't just save and quit without losing that much progress

[wheat sail]

ben and jerrys... immaculate

[harsh yarrow]

Yeepp

The really sad part?
I didnt die to the lasers

I died to contact damange.

[wheat sail]

no achievement for doing radiant hall of gods under 30 minutes first try

[harsh yarrow]

im biting the bullet

getting nail 1

Wont fix skill issue

[frozen frigate]

That one flavour that's like cookie dough S'wich up is goated

I had chocolate fudge brownie yesterday it was okay but I don't like chocolate ice cream very much

[harsh yarrow]

Lets try to do Failed Champion again!

[frozen frigate]

I'll join you

[wheat sail]

i like the brownie one

cookie dough also very good

[harsh yarrow]

I do actually have HKMP 3.0 to do that

But nah
This is my steel soul run

[frozen frigate]

I have nail 2 I just got the whispering root in the ancestral mound

Quick slash and fragile strength/heart my charms of choice

Probably put on nmg

[harsh yarrow]

IDK at what point its not worth to go full focus on nail damage over spells

[frozen frigate]

Honestly failed champion is such a pushover with only nail

I don't think I've ever even tried to use a spell in that fight ever

[harsh yarrow]

I can do him with a bit of struggle with Nail 1 + Fragile Strenght

but Im trying to learn to use spells more

[frozen frigate]

Me too honestly

Spells are great but I've also managed to dumb a lot of bosses down to entirely nail based strategies

It's not stupid if it works Y'hear

[harsh yarrow]

I've got the void VS (forgot its name)

and Decending Dark

I should just use them more

[frozen frigate]

Shade soul

I have those too + howling wraiths

[harsh yarrow]

but I keep on trying to save it for DDark I frames

[frozen frigate]

I love that the maggots dream nail dialogue is just "...oh noo oh no oh nooo oh noo noo..."

[harsh yarrow]

If normally attacking false knight gave you soul- spells would probably be alot better against him

failed champion*

[frozen frigate]

Yeah I imagine ddark when he slams so you don't have to back away would be pretty nice

Crazy that lost kin gives more essence than failed champion

They're both pushovers but failed champion is just a big nail sponge

[floral panther]

Silk and Skong! (I have no idea what I'm doing)

[craggy cave]

It's strange how false knight has many unique properties despite being the first boss

[floral panther]

He was a pretty good boss

I'm slowly loosing my mind to the SilkSong subreddit

[flat remnant]

would it kill you people to come up with more than 3 jokes

every day all i see is "haha SKONG" or "i'm insane" it's just so dull

[cerulean sable]

honestly FK not giving soul is a pretty decent mechanic ngl

[craggy cave]

Creativity? What are we, fans of recent and new games?

[harsh yarrow]

Okay

Failed Champion is daed

[cerulean sable]

i can see Silksong having a stronger healing being offset by making soul starvation be more of a thing

[harsh yarrow]

Just abused the fact that pogoing his armor resets the time until he stands back up

[frozen frigate]

12,000 geo hell yeah

[harsh yarrow]

So you can dreamnail, pogo, heal, repeat

[digital junco]

i'm just grateful "me when beans" is gone 💀

[harsh yarrow]

and then get back to full soul before getting him to stand back up with a few nail strikes

[frozen frigate]

I have 5k more geo than the guy in the guide I'm watching hahahahahaha what an idiot .

[craggy cave]

Actually I haven't seen a game which let you heal infinitely if you have soul

[harsh yarrow]

Factorio ;3

Fish

Quite litterally

You can kill anything

with enough fish

[craggy cave]

I think being able to get back to full state after you make some stupid mistakes is awsome

[frozen frigate]

Aw man I was too slow

[craggy cave]

Without going all the way back to checkpoint

[harsh yarrow]

I do like how Silksong is trying alot of different things compared to the first game, just mechanically

But I do think its a bit sad that Moss Mother doesnt look like nearly as cool of a first boss

Enviromentally Lace 1 beats Hornet 1

that Arena is really cool

[frozen frigate]

Who is lace

[coral prawn]

https://tenor.com/view/statefarm-you-almost-had-it-gif-3140967750448341496

[harsh yarrow]

Wouldnt you like to know

The hornet equivelent in Silksong

Though shes far more hellbent on killing Hornet

[cerulean sable]

yeah, Leth has said multiple times hes pushed TC into trying to post an update but more or less their reaction is like, "not now"

honestly i feel like midway they kinda thought
"\you know what, come to think of it, this game is gonna take a while longer so how about we just shut up?"

[faint hazel]

any day now

[harsh yarrow]

I'd honestly pin the silence on 2 thins

1- They arent beholdant to kickstarter backers

2- The Edge Magazine release

[coral prawn]

What about tomorrow?

[cerulean sable]

and i know its easy for r/silksong to fall into this camp thinking that theyre probably evil laughing and shit on the fanbase's predicament but considering everytime someone meets up with them and the concensus is always "theyre very cool and nice people to talk with" probably just says the opposite 🥴

rn im guessing the early 2018 promise and switch delays still stung hard on them on lessons learned

again full speculation

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah

The Xbox delay burned them

They made a promise, and broke it, and they dont want to disapoint the community again

Which is fair

doesnt absolve them of guilt- they still have given us nothing since 2023

[cerulean sable]

Xbox shit was probably "eh well see if we can hit it" with xbox runninG ITS OUT IN 12 NMONTHS1!!!11

if they could? then thats good

[harsh yarrow]

But they didnt consider what'd happen if they didnt

[cerulean sable]

it depends on the dev but i had projects that had the PM asking me if i could finish it within x weeks/months and im like
"i mean i cant tell rn as im not experienced with the system yet but well we'll see and try. Maybe i can finish it in like y weeks?"

and fast forward 3 months has passed because either due to slow replies, scoping, or other priority items being assigned

shit happens

and were talking about TC here who has NO publisher bonking them in the head to remind them when

[cerulean sable]

yeah well at least Leth had to acknowledge that part

[harsh yarrow]

Well

they do
But Leth is chilll

[wheat sail]

when the release date is revealed itll be close to the release date

[frozen frigate]

I'm going to pax Aus

The presence of Gutters in the City of Tears suggests that the Blue Lake would leak from time to time

And the robustness of the Waterways suggests that they were designed with the current level of rain

Another random thought

The ancient basin is likely just the anchient palace grounds

And the entrance you use is probably just a back door or something

At one point, I'd guess the palace would've stuck up into the City of Tears, where you'd actually have more bug friendly area

But that entrance wasnt perserved in the Kingsmolds memeory

It will take at least 3 more years for silksong to come out, trust me my uncle’s dog’s dentist’s brother in law works for team cherry in an alternate timeline

[ripe cliff]

8 years would be double HK's dev cycle iirc

[wheat sail]

we knew hornet was being playable in 2014

[harsh yarrow]

Yep

The only reason I think they're doing Silksong is because of that promise

It started as a DLC, and blew up from there

I question how that would've worked

because you'd want to tell a story about Hornet that has light involvment of the Knight

Otherwise thered be an actual true ending

And Sealed Siblings still not the actual ending

[wheat sail]

'there is no lore'

actually

[harsh yarrow]

I guess it could've just taken place mid-story

[frozen frigate]

Do you get a percentage point for acquiring the godtuner or entering Godhome?

[harsh yarrow]

godtunner maybe

[coral prawn]

No

[harsh yarrow]

Pantheon 1, 2, and 3 are percentage points

[coral prawn]

And 4

[frozen frigate]

Which one buddy.

[coral prawn]

Both

[harsh yarrow]

And the Godtunner is, apperently

[frozen frigate]

Hm

[coral prawn]

Ooooh well

[harsh yarrow]

Ah yeah, P4 is completion too

[frozen frigate]

The checklist website says 74.83%

How is this possible

[coral prawn]

[harsh yarrow]

probably counting 100% as 112?

[frozen frigate]

Oh wait I forgot nail upgrades

[coral prawn]

I have never used it

[frozen frigate]

Now I'm at 77.83% hell yeah

[coral prawn]

Hk should have more %

Like donky Kong troical freeze with 200%

[frozen frigate]

I'm nearing the halfway point of this achievement

[sacred stratus]

Thank you

[viral crane]

Hey guys
Question
Do you have dash at the start of ss?

[coral prawn]

Maybe

Wr don't know

[viral crane]

It looks like it in a 18 game play I watched

[harsh yarrow]

Its unclear

Maybe
The Sprint looks like its a dash at the start

Which is far better than needing sprintmaster

[charred surge]

This joke is yiiking the hell out of me

[olive bobcat]

Feel that? That's

[charred surge]

Also hi chat

[flat remnant]

wrong fucking server dude

[cerulean sable]

i still think Divine Inspiration would fit Silksong

[charred surge]

[charred surge]

Is that a song, and if so, from where

[cerulean sable]

ok im joking it doesnt fit i just blurt it out cuz it came into my radio 😔
https://youtu.be/x2gk9Qs9IRQ?t=152

we need to

revive the RTS genre

just saying

Team Cherry X Creative Assembly please 🥺

[charred surge]

This is kinda banging tho

[cerulean sable]

its a nice change of pace compared to the rest OST being like these high energy "WAR IS FUN" retro/synthwave vibe if you get me

well its that or its high energy rock and roll

[charred surge]

If you’re fighting a war and you don’t see a short-form-content-edit with phonk playing in the background, is it truly war?

[cerulean sable]

so fucking yrue???

silksong phonk cuz theres bells everywhere anyway

[charred surge]

Tc should henceforth market silksong exclusively with either phonk edits or mobile-game-style ads

This would increase the audience by a lot I think

Investments through the roof

[paper jolt]

surely I do not lose here

[cerulean sable]

"97% OF PLAYERS ARE FUCKING STUPID AND WONT REACH THE CITADEL"

[charred surge]

Completely unrelated but is it just me or is Hornet’s cloak, like, redder/brighter in silksog

[harsh yarrow]

I love bels

[harsh yarrow]

The only company I'd trust to do that right is also the only company that I dont want doing that

Which is Blizzard

just give me fucking Starcraft 3

But they lost most of the brains behind Starcraft 2 to Frost Giant and their game Stormgate

and uh

its not doing so hot rn

Instead, if you want a good RTS in the same style- Beyond All Reason

[cerulean sable]

yeah but i want more of the casual RTS i can just play against bots, not this "THE NEXT COMPETITIVE SC2 KILLER ESPORTS" thinga majig

yeah i knwo about BAR

[harsh yarrow]

BARs AI can be nasty

and its really fun to just get a friend or two and do multiplayer games against the bots

[cerulean sable]

but i kinda prefer low scale settings and as less scifi as possible

kinda like Stronghold Crusader for example, mech and robot (and space) shit doesnt really work for me :/

[harsh yarrow]

Though consider-

mass nuclear annihilation

[cerulean sable]

that is true

but theres also World In Conflict for that

[harsh yarrow]

I've gotten 120+ nuclear silos

[cerulean sable]

im just planning on buying Age of Empires 2 and all the single player focused DLC scenarios tbh

[harsh yarrow]

in a few games

[cerulean sable]

lmao ig you can go super crazy with the macro right

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah

Thats the majority of the fun of the late game

Watching competitive BAR is also enjoyable

[paper jolt]

whats harder Prince Zote or Nightmare King Grimm?

[harsh yarrow]

NKG, no shot

[tawdry valley]

Grimm

[paper jolt]

zotes seem way harder, grimm has more predictable moveset

[harsh yarrow]

Zote is unpredictable and annoying, but go in with pure nail and fragile strength and he just dies

[tawdry valley]

Zote loses to you not walking into him most of the time

[harsh yarrow]

Doesnt work so well with NKG, in my exeperience

[cerulean sable]

i like GPZ in a way that you dont have him "solved" per attack like NKG

[harsh yarrow]

I like GPZ because I love zote

[paper jolt]

yeah I mean ye

[tawdry valley]

He’s “unpredictable” because his pathing changes based on how you move. You can avoid getting baited by trying to bait him first

[paper jolt]

zote the goat

[harsh yarrow]

Hes a firm 5th favorite boss or so

[cerulean sable]

when he does something you gotta check your space still for his next attack or preemptive dodge

NKG is "oh ok he does this, i do that, i do this, i do that" that it just becomes repetition

[tawdry valley]

The result is a consistent way to make him miss

[harsh yarrow]

After Mantis Lords, Hornet, Troupe Master Grimm, and Dung Defender

[paper jolt]

dung defender is most def my favorite

[cerulean sable]

GPZ feels frantic as a result

which makes him fun in refights

[harsh yarrow]

Me with Failed Champion today

[cerulean sable]

NKG just becomes repetitive

[harsh yarrow]

I actually wasnt doing too bad at the end with him, I got pretty good at predicting his attacks

But now when I can fight NKG

[paper jolt]

dung defender, GPZ and Watcher Knights are probably my 3 favorites

[harsh yarrow]

I just destroy rthe nightmare lantern

Carefree Melody is the better charm

[young breach]

🐊 grimm lets u heal everytime he attacks

[pulsar sleet]
