[glossy berry]

either june/july or winter holidays

[young saffron]

June/July

[formal karma]

and the universe likes frigging me over

[north shore]

Jan 1st, 2026

[cerulean sable]

i guess its standard protagonist stakes too, like Hornet's goal is probably to know WHY she was kidnapped in the first place, hence she needs to get to the top
and if it was an ordinary person youd probably say, well actually ill just escape but i dont think its in character for Hornet to do that anyway. its just an instinctive video game protag to do

[north shore]

Because it would be SUPREMELY funny

[torn echo]

june/july is a good guess due to summer hollidays

[young saffron]

But isn't GTA releasing thenM

Idk I kinda have this idea it'll limit ss sales alot

[glossy berry]

gta is in autumn

[cerulean sable]

Leth also suggested they wanted to avoid late year releases because thats when most AAA games come out

again times can change

[young saffron]

Ooh

[cerulean sable]

but i dont think TC needs to worry that much either

[north shore]

Time for autistic programming lets go?

[torn echo]

oh btw, is silksong sill most wishlisted?

[young saffron]

Oh yeah just played balatro

[glossy berry]

summer would be best yeah
and most likely based on prior stuff

june 2023 was the old internal deadline for the last release window
finances and profit stuff
holiday period; least stressful time of year economically
etc etc

[glossy berry]

yep

[harsh yarrow]

Silksong is always the most wishlisted game on steam unless something from a larger dev is coming up

[cerulean sable]

again funny anecdote

[young saffron]

Too easy, the day b4 Nintendo direct it was +2500 wishlists

[cerulean sable]

some other sub i saw reported got an article saying HK is no longer the most wishlisted game on Steam

and it was funny seeing people jump in like "good, fuck them, they deserve it" and "this wouldnt happen if they just gave out updates, how could they fumble this so hard lmao"

[glossy berry]

a game did overtake it for like a week yeah, was close to release

im sure the skong numbers will explode when we get actual release dates

[glossy berry]

lmfaooooo holy shit 😭

i forget how dire it is sometimes

[cerulean sable]

but literally you check it out the only reason Silksong ever leaves most wishlisted is because new games with an upcoming release date gets mass wishlisted as a reminder for them to buy it, but Silksong ALWAYS rebounds to 1# or 2# everytime

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah

[cerulean sable]

and it makes sense because that article came from Gamerant

[formal karma]

its like those morons that dont want to subscribe to a YouTube channel because their uploads are infrequent. Like. Like. That's when you WANT to subscribe

wacky

[harsh yarrow]

Slowly shipping stuff up to Vengfly 2, in preperation to claim Gleba as the new branch factory

[formal karma]

what?

[harsh yarrow]

Factorio

[young saffron]

She's from detroit

[formal karma]

i should have guessed, on both accounts

[glossy berry]

ah ew :c

[formal karma]

maybe i should fire up a Silksong Waiting Room of an Oxygen Not Included run

[torn echo]

thank you

[harsh yarrow]

This time I actually kinda want to play Gleba as intended- painfully

[torn echo]

also i just realised... the speed runs of this game are gonna be utterly stunning

[formal karma]

mhmm

[harsh yarrow]

They'll be far cooler than Hollow Knight Speedruns

[formal karma]

i am just as excited for TC interviews and YT analysis of Silksong as I am for the game itself

[harsh yarrow]

Because Hornet will actually have some decently flashy-looking skill to her movment

[formal karma]

looking at YOU Boss Keys

actually Boss Keys video about HK is what made me most patient for Silksong...

[harsh yarrow]

Should I go through the effort of finally updating Nauvis properly?

[torn echo]

the combat is gonna be stunning

[glossy berry]

oh yeah no the combat looks gorgeous i can't wait
hollow knight was great at that already but it looks so fluid

[harsh yarrow]

Using the foundries, electromagnetic plants, and whatnot I got from Vulcanus and Fulgora?

[torn echo]

however combat might be interesting in speed runs, becuase from what it seems hornet has alot of mildly long wind up skills, or end lag skills (like her flip she does)

[formal karma]

the push pin caltrops we get is auto include for me

area denial is my specialty

[glossy berry]

you get to play a zoner in hollow knight silksong.....

[formal karma]

hell yea

go full helldivers with my combat style

[glossy berry]

yeah!!!
my number one hope really is that we dont end up with a hk situation where theres an almost unequivocal meta charm/build setup

[harsh yarrow]

No I really should wait to be done with Gleba for that

[torn echo]

I will become a speed deamon

[harsh yarrow]

one of the techs I get (with mods) is the ability to make green circuts with wood, copper wire, and heavy oil

[formal karma]

hopeefully the early pokemon "just pick damaging moves" mentality doesn't affect tools

[carmine island]

NUH UH IM FAST AS FUCK

[torn echo]

omg, thats so true all the set up tools are gonna be sick

[tall cargo]

how fast we talking

[glossy berry]

yeah!!!!
no thats like one of the things im most excited for i love build variety so much

[tall cargo]

i'm sure that there'll be a meta

[torn echo]

omg don't get me started on build variety

[carmine island]

I once got 3rd place in a race of two people

[formal karma]

there's always a meta, yea, but some metas are softer than others

[wild plinth]

Using the lifeblood syringe in every fight so hornet becomes an addict

[torn echo]

however the huge consequence of that is it will build a community of people "HOW DARE YOU NOT PICK (insert build here)"

[tall cargo]

so the strategy is to be so slow that you affect the rate of time passing around you too?

[glossy berry]

tangential but i think its absolutely wonderful when this place is actually happy and full of whimsy and joy and excitement about the game theyre waiting for lmao, its nice

good change of pace sometimes

[tall cargo]

what!! it's so much better when people are shitting on other games that they don't like instead actually

[glossy berry]

oh 100%
i'd be shocked if its as hard as hk's though

strength + shamans + quick slash moment

[tall cargo]

don't forget sharp shadow

[harsh yarrow]

I hope Team Cherry is far more willing to try and balance the game

[near cairn]

silksong this year guys

[formal karma]

hell yea

unless its delayed but i dont think so this time

[near cairn]

flukenest

[hollow cedar]

100% it doesn't get delayed this year

[harsh yarrow]

Flukenest...

They tried what? 4 times? and failed 4 times XD

[formal karma]

agreed, no way it got delayed 1.75 years after the first window just to miss this one

[potent abyss]

no way

[glossy berry]

for what its worth the last release window came from xbox extrapolating off a vague internal deadline tc had lmao, not anything official

compared that to other companies marketing, steam changes the week prior to the direct, leth retweeting the nintendo tweet, and the date in the directs itself

id be in awe if they missed it

[formal karma]

we were wold TC intended to release it, though. and this one hasnt been backed other than LEth retweeting it

steam changes were actually rpetty big

[torn echo]

why do you think the game has taken a lot of time to come out

[fair rampart]

they had to make it

[torn echo]

no kidding

[glossy berry]

yeah i think thats the biggest tell we could have got that they werent messing around with this one really

i worry people have taken the one singular delay as a precedent that tc cant be trusted to release games on time/that windows arent real
which is a shame

[glossy berry]

i think it was confirmed to be scope creep iirc

[cerulean sable]

Again my point is

if they intend to miss this 2025

they could literally just NOT mention it in the Switch 2 thing

[torn echo]

the community would also go wild

[cerulean sable]

and we wouldve gone the same 5 stages of grief the community has done again but in the end theres nothing the community can do anyway

[formal karma]

porting to 3 consoles for day 1 everyone gets to play

[cerulean sable]

they went silent for 2024\

this wouldnt be any different, but they didnt, and Leth actually acknowledged it compared to Xbox

[torn echo]

i think a big reason is the art style change, and it looks like they overhaled every single bit of the game

[cerulean sable]

or the ports

[torn echo]

yep

[cerulean sable]

or the part where theyre just a 3 man team too

[formal karma]

that too

[glossy berry]

the ports too yeah
lots of factors making a game this big in a team of literally 3 is sisyphean

[torn echo]

i don't disagree, but from the little clips, the game looks 100x better

[cerulean sable]

ive seen other indie games with a larger team take 6-8 years as well

i mean yeah i agree

[glossy berry]

only reason hollow knight didnt take as long was because they literally ran out of cash during development

[cerulean sable]

but i dont think TC is outright overhauling the entire artstyle

more of just enhancing it, which takes time still dont get me wrong

but the implication of the former sounds like "fuck it, lets redraw EVERYTHING"

[torn echo]

if you look at hornets cloak, it's more vibrant = they had to do that with every single sprite (also i might be schzio, but it looks more smooth, like the animations look better)

[cerulean sable]

if you coulnt DLCs HK wouldve taken 5 ish years too

animations i cant really see but the shading yes

afaik its still operating on the same frames per seconds as it was in the Xbox trailer

was the term frames per seconds right? im not an artist

[torn echo]

yea it did sound like that but mean like cleaner

[cerulean sable]

yeah i guess

[torn echo]

ye

[cerulean sable]

overall weve been seeing improvements too since Edge

[torn echo]

yar

[cerulean sable]

for example the Deep Docks arena had a bunch of scorch marks on Edge

[torn echo]

hopefuly we get like a reason on why we never got that much communication (id be fine without a reason)

not like we need one, would just be nice to have one

[cerulean sable]

im in the same camp

i wish there was a bit more communication

but im way way way more irritated and annoyed the fans whos acting like their lives are on the line

[torn echo]

same

[cerulean sable]

thats the problem with the hype culture these days

some people are really in it to feel that hype

[hollow wigeon]

Peak.

[lament igloo]

It feels like so long ago..

[torn echo]

wot

[rocky flicker]

why have team cherry fallen silent they just drop this and then ditch us for so long so tired of this disrespect

[lament igloo]

Im kidding

[torn echo]

calm down vro, it aint that deep, yeah we havent got that much info but it's all worth that wait

[rocky flicker]

im being sarcastic

I love team cherry deeply

[torn echo]

im going to ikea build you a home

[harsh yarrow]

Delays arent delays because they're intentional lol, yeah

[rocky flicker]

too late I live on an island built entirely of ikea furniture

[torn echo]

how many endings d oyou think the game will have?

[formal sapphire]

one hornetillion

[cloud yew]

ofc but i think they would only make this announcement if the things that would typically delay a game were all out of the way

[harsh yarrow]

Team Cherry had it happen once... sometime shit happens, you get an idea, or a large issue is pointed out

[cloud yew]

they’re obviously not online all that much but leth is well aware of the state of the community particularly after the xbox situation i think he’d do all he could to talk them out of it if he didn’t think it would happen

[harsh yarrow]

or family matters take your attention

[cloud yew]

leth seems confident this time since he retweeted nintendo’s post and changed his header to just silksong

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah, I hope Team Cherry learned their lesson, and are more confident this time around

[torn echo]

look if it does get delayed, we just have to NOT flip out

[cloud yew]

i really doubt they’d make that mistake twice

[harsh yarrow]

Same

[cloud yew]

yeah of course

[torn echo]

if they do, then most of the community WILL flip out

[harsh yarrow]

I do wonder what casued the 2022/23 delays, I might DM Graig with the question to see if he knows

[cloud yew]

if it gets delayed it gets delayed 🤷 we know they’re working on it and it will release eventually

[torn echo]

half of them are tired of waiting, and if it does get delyaed then comes out, pretty sure that half wont play the game out of pure hate

[brittle arch]

they still gonna eat it

[cloud yew]

it could be any number of things, scope creep (likely), code completely breaking, whatever

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah

Its not impossible that slopes caused it, they're uh

not great in Hollow Knight XD

[torn echo]

maybe, it's a wild thing what "hate" can do

[cloud yew]

yeah slopes were a factor i’m sure hahah

i do wonder how much the slopes will actually be used

[torn echo]

bro, i hope we get like a flying boss fight (i doupt)

[cloud yew]

could just be one section or they could be all over

[harsh yarrow]

I do hope they're spread out, and not a one-time thing

[brittle arch]

edgy ahh speech

[torn echo]

im going to kill you? /j

[cloud yew]

honestly i doubt that many people will refuse to play silksong out of sheer rage at how long it’s taken

[torn echo]

i just realised how much fun im gonna have killing those god forsaken ants (i hate the ants)

[brittle arch]

i'm not gonna do anything rational because my could be favourite game got delay

[cloud yew]

if they’re THAT mad about the wait it’s because they want to play it REALLY bad

[cloud yew]

i loveeeee ants

i love bugs ants are some of my favourites

[brittle arch]

the good way or the bad way

the freaky way

[cloud yew]

i had to write a paper on fungus farming ants for uni and i was shocked at how many different species of ants actually farm fungi

[cloud yew]

i’m into entomology so i assume that’s the good way

[brittle arch]

they farm my wall

and lay egg inside it

lucky for them i don't like to commit homocide

[cloud yew]

like i did not realise fungus farming was that serious omg…..

[brittle arch]

very cool

the queen ant in the trailer is very fire ngl

[cloud yew]

i think all of the ants look really cool

[obsidian owl]

you’re making me want to get into mushroom collecting again…

[brittle arch]

true, very unique

[bleak jackal]

silksongs helping everybody

[cloud yew]

do you eat them or just collect them

[brittle arch]

are you gonna consume them

[obsidian owl]

eat

don’t make me get a course on safe mushroom collecting again it takes soooo looong

[cloud yew]

i’m in a mycology society at uni but i haven’t gone foraging with them yet bc they eat the mushrooms and i just know i’d poison myself and die

[cloud yew]

yeah i can imagine

so many poisonous mushrooms look like edible mushrooms

[obsidian owl]

the worst part is that a lot of the good tasting ones have a very similar looking one that will kill you in hours iirc

[iron fable]

is mr mushroom edible

[cloud yew]

hopefully we eat him in silksong

[iron fable]

we can only hope 🙏

[cloud yew]

do u have a favourite mushroom appearance wise

[obsidian owl]

also, iirc one of the most poisonous ones in my area actually tastes pretty good too

[cloud yew]

my favs are parrot waxcaps i think

or bleeding tooth fungus that’s a cool one

[iron fable]

who figured out that it tastes good

[void basin]

We can’t eat him 😞 he’s our friend

[obsidian owl]

god i forgot what it was called but it’s one that, when cut, turns dark blue

there’s also one that’s very similar and super poisonous

[bleak jackal]

is there gonna be hornet in silksong

[cloud yew]

i’m throwing him in the druid’s cauldron the second i see him

[iron fable]

lore masters are still debating that

[cloud yew]

oh indigo milk cap i think it’s called

[void basin]

NO! You can’t not to mr mushroom

[iron fable]

but what if he tasty tho

[obsidian owl]

the german name has “witch” in it somewhere while the poisojous one has “devil” in there somewhere iirc

[void basin]

Probably not I’d say Brettas going to be the main character

[void basin]

Then eat away 🙄

[iron fable]

I'll tell him you gave me permission

[void basin]

That’s alright he took 2% from me when I did his ending he deserves it

[iron fable]

bro changed opinions about mushroom man real quick lol

[void basin]

Sometimes that’s what you got to do

[iron fable]

fair enough

[cloud yew]

i really like the amethyst deceiver i think that’s a cool name

[vagrant onyx]

[cloud yew]

i’m obsessed with mushrooms and also terrified of them

[iron fable]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-whatdidyousay-gif-25240646

[strange gulch]

no, they replaced Hornet with AI sadly

[iron fable]

mushroom is offended by the terrified part you said

[cloud yew]

i would suck at actually identifying mushrooms bc i hate looking at their gills they freak me out

[void basin]

After seeing him again how could you eat that face

[cerulean sable]

i mean this as honest as possible but the people whos saying they no longer care are like a fucking minority in the grand scheme of things, just a really loud one

[bleak jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/fire-writing-writing-fire-his-writing-is-fire-is-this-fire-hold-up-gif-15400153686296022809

[cloud yew]

yeah no he’s going in the cauldron

[iron fable]

I read a dr seuss book one time

I know I'm cool

[cerulean sable]

literally look at the fucking comments, last couple of months they were just saying how much they no longer care and wont buy the game because TC wont give news, now its flipped back to "i wont buy the game until im sure its out"

[cloud yew]

i’m excited to meet the druid it’s more hollow knight adjacent than a lot of other pharloom bugs

[void basin]

😞

[strange gulch]

because of cordyceps?

[cerulean sable]

seriously, the vast majority of people do not care

[obsidian owl]

i’ve always wanted to start collecting but i just haven’t had the time…. there was also the question of acid rain at the time because of chernobyl (no i’m not ancient, it just was a thing still 7 or so years ago)
i wonder if that changed now

[iron fable]

if they don't wanna play silksong they should just say so

[void basin]

I’m going to buy twenty six SILKSONG copies to make up for the loud majority

[cloud yew]

it can’t infect humans so i’m not worried lol i think it’s really cool

[obsidian owl]

it’s also used as medicine!

[cloud yew]

oh cool i didn’t even know that

[iron fable]

I'm gonna donate one copy to a random person who shares all my exact identifications
(me)

[harsh yarrow]

yeah... most people are just excited we got news, and are excited to see the game release

[bleak jackal]

i mean, we've experienced this same thing before

[void basin]

I never thought of that

[bleak jackal]

so its hard to believe

[void basin]

I’m going to politely force my friends to beat hollow knight now

[bleak jackal]

me

[iron fable]

no

[cloud yew]

we have acid rain too bc of all the old coal mines :\

[harsh yarrow]

if you boycott a game you clearly loved enough to follow for long enough to get annoyed at TC for the lack of news
Not buying it just seems stupid

[obsidian owl]

😔 i know a few places have a strict no foraging rule here because of health concerns

[iron fable]

get Isma's tear

[harsh yarrow]

Its the game you love- finally released

[obsidian owl]

who is boycotting tc what

[harsh yarrow]

Idiots

[cloud yew]

i’ve been strongarming people into playing hollow knight for years and i’m about to get worse

[obsidian owl]

i doubt that there’s a significant amount of people

[harsh yarrow]

Yep, same ehre

[cerulean sable]

seriously, Hogwarts Legacy is the prime example of this, like by all means fuck Rowling but so many people online were expecting the game to fail or the boycott means its dead on arrival
then it sold a lot because not a lot of people were even aware of the controversy, and this also goes on for other games (Ori dev was in a similar conundrum)

[iron fable]

people who have nothing of substance to be mad at

[cloud yew]

it’s fun when i get people to play hollow knight though bc they always ask me a million questions so i just get to talk about hollow knight forever

[obsidian owl]

i mean it’s still good to call for a boycott on anything jk-rowling

[cerulean sable]

oh yeah dont get me wrong

[void basin]

So far I’ve convinced 13 people 4 of which have fully completed it others are halfway through but…… I must increase SILKSONG sales tenfold before I stop

[obsidian owl]

i am not buying or playing hogwarts legacy even though it seems super interesting as a game

[cerulean sable]

i didnt buy it cuz i dont really care anything about Harry Potter anymore and i dont like Rowling either

[iron fable]

guys what if soilsong comes out yesterday

[harsh yarrow]

I hate Rowling as much as any other trans girl, but come on|
Boycotting a game thats just based on a property she made is stupid to me

[cerulean sable]

Just that I already knew it was gonna sell regardless cuz people are attached to the setting in the first place, not the person behind it

[obsidian owl]

she earns money from it 🤷‍♀️

[cloud yew]

i loathe jk rowling

i hate that she has political sway in the UK

[obsidian owl]

i didn’t buy a single book except the 5th one and that was before i knew about anything

[ionic spruce]

She earned quite a few millions from it so it's fair enough in my opinion

[void basin]

Well unfortunately for my silver dofe group the SILKSONG release date was announced the day before we left and for the past three days without phones that’s all I’ve talked about for 20 miles of walking it’s all they could hear

[cloud yew]

omg hahahah

[void basin]

It’s already shadow dropped people

[obsidian owl]

what do you even talk about

[iron fable]

I don't even know anything about the jk rowling stuff, I just don't find harry potter super interesting

[void basin]

Oh there’s lots to talk about when it comes to hollow knight and SILKSONG

[cloud yew]

hopefully it comes out during summer bc i have a residential field trip for the whole first week back at uni and i’ll be whining the whole time if silksong comes out and i can’t play it

they’ll kill me on that trip

[iron fable]

that just means you have guides to use in case you need them once you're back

[void basin]

If it comes out during my GCSEs I’m fucking them up so bad so I’ll have hope it’s after them

[obsidian owl]

there are a few plot holes, the names are racist at times but all in all the books are pretty solid

[cloud yew]

GCSEs are evil good luck soldier 🫡

[iron fable]

just not the kinda book I like but if others like it then I'm glad they can enjoy it at least

[void basin]

“Fake it till you make it” has been my moto and it’s worked in history and geography so I have to hope I can do well

[cloud yew]

honestly i’d rather i didn’t have guides so i’m forced to figure things out myself

plus if i get really stuck on something it’s something to come back to

[iron fable]

can I fake being 8 inches taller until I make it 🥺

[void basin]

It’ll enhance the game without guides

[void basin]

YES! You can

[last cliff]

i on the other hand want it to come during september time cause my exam results will be long over so no one will object

[iron fable]

source? ⁉️

[iron fable]

on the contrary,
tomorrow

[last cliff]

tomorrow is an exam result day

[void basin]

Get other people to exaggerate your height, there’s this guy I know who’s liek 5ft 2 and I’ve told so many people that’s his 6ft 4 to the point where most people believe he’s massive

[cloud yew]

no one is allowed to object to me rotting in my cave playing silksong bc i suffer extreme torture for the whole academic year

[iron fable]

[cloud yew]

unfortunately i still think about silksong while having a life

[warm thicket]

1/3

[iron fable]

close enough

[cloud yew]

at the club thinking about the big robot boss

[iron fable]

so what if we had a crest in silksong that was like a basketball and she dunked on the moss mother

damn

[formal karma]

what

okay, i read baseball

[subtle flint]

[iron fable]

[fresh zodiac]

ever since the direct came out, ive never felt such a long april

and its been 4 days

[formal karma]

time has accelerated for me- now we have a window

[iron fable]

it accelerated for me until the new release window came out, now it feels like forever

[wet gull]

fun fact, that boss's name is Song Golem

[iron fable]

even though it's only been like 4 days

[formal karma]

fun fact, we don't know that

[iron fable]

fun fact, silksong comes out tomorrow

[fresh zodiac]

fr?

or am i being gaslit

[wet gull]

I mean it could just be a place holder name, but it sounds pretty serious

[formal karma]

file names of video clips, i think

[iron fable]

fun fact, song golem is from North Carolina

[cloud yew]

oh shit yeah from the metadata right?

[wet gull]

When xbox dropped some screenshots they were named, and the one with that boss was titled "Song Golem Boss Fight" now think what you want

[wet gull]

exactly

[iron fable]

probably a placeholder name

but still cool that it has song in the placeholder name

[rare belfry]

Will it only come out on Nintendo in 2025 or will it come out everywhere

[iron fable]

how is mr robot man connected to music

[formal karma]

why do people think its switch exclusive all of a sudden?

no... no... NO

[shell salmon]

Yes

[iron fable]

only on gamecube

[fresh zodiac]

im placeholder pilled

[rare belfry]

I don't but I'm asking about release

[rare belfry]

What's that

[formal karma]

release all platforms everywhere

[rare belfry]

Ok thank you good sir

[iron fable]

it's day one on gamepass, use context clues

it comes out on all platforms same time

[formal karma]

2019 "launching on both switch and PC"

[rare belfry]

Ok

[iron fable]

I really have been seeing too many people thinking silksong will be a nintendo exclusive tho lol
idek what made people come to that conclusion

[cloud yew]

well we don’t really know all that much about the relevance of song yet or how story relevant the boss is so it could be a totally fitting name

[formal karma]

they thought that about Xbox too

[rare belfry]

I know it won't be because I've seen it on xbox store i was just asking about release

[void bluff]

I better hear 'ahh papanara' 7 seconds after i silk my skong or im going to be very upset

[cyan crown]

gm ss discussion

[iron fable]

ultimate villain is weezer, ari gipson told me in dms
I lost the account because of candy crush tho mb

[iron fable]

good morning

reshiram is the best of the three gen 5 dragons

[rare belfry]

Reshiram is goated

[cyan crown]

very cool

[rare belfry]

I have two diffrent reshiram and zekrom tag teams

[rare belfry]

Is pc good for hollow knight

[iron fable]

yes but using a controller on pc makes it better

[formal karma]

better than console

yea i use a controller on pc

[rare belfry]

Idk if I should play silksong on laptop or Xbox

[formal karma]

i dunno man- i assume PC but then i have a desktop so shrug

[iron fable]

depends on how much you use each, I'm getting it on pc personally because I'll always have a computer but one day I won't have a console or the time to use it likely

[last cliff]

kyeurem is better acc to me

[iron fable]

so just in case, skong on pc so I can always play

[formal karma]

prolly get it on PC and switch

[iron fable]

only when he fuses with reshiram

[formal karma]

so i can run handheld anywhere and do things different

[frozen frigate]

I shiny hunted this guy in Pokemon ultra sun a few months ago absolutely delicious

[last cliff]

in a way yes white kyeurem is better

[last cliff]

i shiny hunted mew two

[iron fable]

I wish I still had my ultra sun copy, it's my fav gen and has my fav pokemon

[last cliff]

my hands were aching with all the flying with lunala

[iron fable]

and it's half reshiram soooo

[frozen frigate]

I also shiny hunted landorus and suicune and giratina so fire

[fresh zodiac]

litten led me down a path to my online identity

[iron fable]

lmao

[fresh zodiac]

i love this cta

[last cliff]

but my fav game is black 2

[rare belfry]

I have that

[last cliff]

yes litten is the bomb

[cloud yew]

i’ve played HK on macbook a bunch and it was perfectly fine so if u have an actual gaming PC you’ll be fine

[rare belfry]

In ex

[frozen frigate]

Isn't it easier if you switch to solgaleo because his body is more compact or something

[iron fable]

lowkey I wish litten turned more feline in it's final evo but I've come to terms with incineroar

[rare belfry]

It's a gaming laptop not a real pc

[last cliff]

i didnt get one in ultra sun tho

[last cliff]

who likes travelling on solgaleo

looks lame

[frozen frigate]

Literally everyone

[rare belfry]

This is my stuff rn

[cloud yew]

still if it’s fine on a macbook i’m sure it’ll be fine on a gaming laptop

just use a controller bc it’ll be awful otherwise

[frozen frigate]

I wish they didn't shiny lock the gen 7 box legendaries I'd have shiny hunted those too

[rare belfry]

I bought all this and more for only $350 nzd because I low balled my brother and his friend

[frozen frigate]

That red looked so bad I won't lie

[iron fable]

I don't have a physical collection but the pokemon tcg pocket app is nice
I get two free packs a day and can collect whoever I like for free so it's a nice little free hobby on my phone

[rare belfry]

I have that as well

[iron fable]

I await the day they add a mimikyu card/cards to the game

I will exclusively pull on that pack if it has a mimikyu chase card

he's my favourite lil guy

[rare belfry]

Fair enough

I like greninja

[iron fable]

I heard he might end up with a mega in Z-A
not super confirmed but I heard it 👀

greninja that is btw

[warm thicket]

Wut

[iron fable]

connecting a controller to use while playing on pc makes it the best, you can install mods, still have the controller so it still feels nice to play, and also you'll likely have a computer throughout your life so you'll always have access to hk 👍

[warm thicket]

W u t

[iron fable]

skong dunk on mossbag mother

[warm thicket]

[fresh zodiac]

i love the tag team cards

[iron fable]

this guy seems to be confused quite a lot

[warm thicket]

Ducking on yo mom? No offense

[gray leaf]

This just a preference thing, many people prefer keyboard altogether for HK too

[iron fable]

true, but I'd say the majority likely prefer controller
still there are definitely folks who much prefer the keyboard though

[rare belfry]

Same

[gray leaf]

That's true, controller also used to straight up be recommended on boot

[rare belfry]

Somehow they are worth a lot of money as well

[iron fable]

yeah lol

[last cliff]

the controller i bought always lagged so keyboard and mouse the best for me

[iron fable]

I'll give you five nickels and a kinder egg

[rare belfry]

Mods on hollowknight?

[gray leaf]

Im kinda bad with controller nowadays so keyboard n mouse my goat

[iron fable]

yeah like custom skins, or more crazy stuff like custom bosses or randomizers

just adds some more stuff you can do

[rare belfry]

I joined a steam family on my laptop and it has like 200+ games on it including hallowknight

[warm thicket]

I prefer pure keyboard

[rare belfry]

No new biomes or anything?

[iron fable]

well idk, you could very likely find one, you just have to find the mods you want, as long as someone's made it and you're on pc you can try it

[brisk bolt]

Guys I'm stuck on the boss where Hornet fights the evil Hornet. How do I beat her?

[iron fable]

(assuming you know how to install them but yea)

[iron fable]

you have to get the silkspoon in the gravy grove first

[rare belfry]

I've never installed any mods on anything before

I got my laptop a week or two ago

[iron fable]

there's tutorials so up to you if you ever wanna try mods, I haven't yet but I will one day most likely

once I get fully bored of hk probably

[rare belfry]

Am I geeked i don't remember ts

[iron fable]

she's playing silksong because time travel

[rare belfry]

Me personally I can only play a game one then I can never play any more

[iron fable]

fixed

[rare belfry]

So it's spoilers?

[brisk bolt]

I tried to grab it but it said that I didn't have enough aura. 😔😔😔😔😔

[iron fable]

oh 100%

[rare belfry]

Damn

I normally don't get spoiled for anything

[brisk bolt]

How do I gain more aura? Do I need to rizz up Iselda again?

[iron fable]

unfortunate

[iron fable]

you aura farm
dunno how you didn't know that since it's in the tutorial

[kindred pewter]

Soukaku Ready

[iron fable]

you just stand in cinematic spots for like a hour

[brisk bolt]

I skipped through the tutorial.

[strange gulch]

What if Silksong was free? (unlikely but what if)

[iron fable]

she buff my ellen

[kindred pewter]

install a mod that increases your aura by 70%

[brisk bolt]

Then I'd be sad. I wanna support TC.

[gray leaf]

Hell nah

[strange gulch]

you could still buy the soundtrack

[iron fable]

I'd still pay tc because they deserve it

[brisk bolt]

Will it be detected by the Voidcreep Anti Cheat?

[crude oriole]

Evolution of golem

[rare belfry]

Bro wants to help the poor

Me personally I hope the game costs $200 so less people get to play it

[crude oriole]

which one is you guys' favorite

[kindred pewter]

what is voidcreep anti cheat

[iron fable]

he be contrasted
(I would NOT be able to focus in the fight with the first version)

[brisk bolt]

What's these boss type called again? Where it's a big monster that looks like it's in the background?

[rare belfry]

Is this more spoilers

[iron fable]

yes (actual yes)

[kindred pewter]

big monster

[rare belfry]

🙏 😭

[iron fable]

scary dood

[gray leaf]

2nd/3rd are better though I like the first one's color palette more

[brisk bolt]

Silksong anti cheat????? Didn't you have to install it for multiplayer?

[kindred pewter]

oh I just bypass it

[strange gulch]

I assume it works like Radiance where there is no contact damage and the boss is just in the background

[iron fable]

same, but with the embers in the foreground and the spindly robot arms matching the bg it was likely too hard to discern what was happening in the fight so they changed it

[crude oriole]

personally, I like the second one the most

[brisk bolt]

How? I thought their kernel level Anticheat was very strong. Can you still access the battle pass?

[rare belfry]

Bro what

There will be a battle pass?

[last cliff]

some fellow from here sent me a friend request.......i agreed and sent him a gif...........then he blocked me.............like wtf

im confused

[gray leaf]

Yepyep

[kindred pewter]

yes

[iron fable]

he did that to me too other than the block

[last cliff]

like wut happened whoever it was

[last cliff]

i cant send friend request back....i sent it thinking it might be a mistake

https://tenor.com/view/goku-vegeta-dancing-gif-13388389568631053314

[brisk bolt]

Radiance still feels different imo. Like she feels like in 2D but just no contact damage. I'm talking like, a boss like Sigma 2nd boss fight from Mega Man X5.

[last cliff]

is this gif even that bad

isint it funny

[iron fable]

he sent me a link to a server then sent a skong meme lol

[brisk bolt]

(we're having a made up conversation like the game is out and making shit up lol. DW, the game won't)

[iron fable]

yes

[rare belfry]

Well that's disappointing

I was hoping there would be a battle pass

[real pagoda]

Ellen users ain't eating good after Hugo drops

[last cliff]

im having a breakdown wonderin if im weird

[iron fable]

we haven't eaten good since miyabi tbh

[real pagoda]

True

Ellen is still fine

[iron fable]

just think of baby hippos and dw

[real pagoda]

Just not as good as Miyabi or possibly Hugo

[last cliff]

will they also run away from me

[iron fable]

yep, quite a tragedy but she was the first banner so makes sense

[iron fable]

no probably

[real pagoda]

Old characters get weaker eventually

[last cliff]

https://tenor.com/view/spider-man-sad-gif-8953872555328582544

[real pagoda]

Let's just wait until they give them buffs

[brisk bolt]

😭😭😭😭

[kindred pewter]

Ellen is forever dead

[iron fable]

hsr is buffing 1.0 characters next patch so it's possible
it just might take a while

[kindred pewter]

well she will be good if they buff her

[real pagoda]

God damn finally😭

Because the powecreep shit in HSR is terrible

[iron fable]

I've been playing hsr more than zzz recently tbh, getting up the pulls for next banner

[iron fable]

ehhh it depends
it's really overexaggerated a lot of the time

[real pagoda]

I only stick to ZZZ for now

[shell salmon]

wuwa when?

[kindred pewter]

the recent character addition got tectone to quit HSR so it's a good future for the game

[brisk bolt]

Guys I can't wait for the Zote banner!!!! I saved a lot of geogems for it!!!!

[iron fable]

yoooo the daily grubussy sticker is here

[iron fable]

I got roccia then dipped

[real pagoda]

I'm quite hesitated to get back to HSR and GI because I had a huge hiatus on them, and also because of meta changes

[iron fable]

waiting until another person I want to pull for comes out

[shell salmon]

halo

[kindred pewter]

Zote sucks, I'm waiting for hornet banner

[iron fable]

samee!

I gotta pull for life ender on weapon banner so I can have the best zote build

[hollow cedar]

Do y'all think the whole cake thing William did was intentional but he just didn't say anything too obvious on purpose so he didn't damage their relationship with Nintendo?

If they actually signed a NDA

[kindred pewter]

the cake thing and this was just a coincidence

[last cliff]

if u have bennet and xinqiu what meta do u fear

[last cliff]

i already got zote c6

[iron fable]

I feel like he maybe did it accidentally and then leth said it was unintentional because it was. then after that they said fuck it and hit up nintendo to get their small clips in on short notice and got their small clips put in which was why it didn't have a larger segment

so it was coincidental and then they went with it after leth said it wasn't intentional

is obviously just a theory though

[real pagoda]

Meta one is specifically for HSR actually

[last cliff]

i havent played since 1.0 actually

[fresh zodiac]

collected all the crests that we know of so far

last two are the same i think

[iron fable]

last two pics are the same crest btw

[fresh zodiac]

lmao yea

[iron fable]

yep!

[warm thicket]

That gif is cursed imo

[fresh zodiac]

like an activated version, maybe its a crest focused on survivability

[real pagoda]

I played it on its release, but then quit it after some few patches

[iron fable]

damn what'd you send him lol

[fiery shore]

silksong new ennemy announced:

(could be tho)

[harsh yarrow]

I believe that is whats thought, at least

Clearly an example of upgradable crests!

[brisk bolt]

I spent all my money on getting the Pure Nail R5 for the Pure Vessel. 😔😔😔😔

[iron fable]

it has a smaller circle top left so it likely takes less silk to heal, but also the movest seems very basic (it's similar to the knight's basic attacks from hk)

so maybe it's like you can heal for less but your moves are sucky

[sand lodge]

This one too

[real fractal]

ow shamon

[harsh yarrow]

Oh, I havent seen this one before

[iron fable]

maybe
it could also be that it opens up when its full since the first pic it's empty and second it's able to heal

[iron fable]

where's this from??

[harsh yarrow]

That'd be cool

[kind ermine]

this game is gonna be big huh

[harsh yarrow]

Edge Magazine, I'd guess

[sand lodge]

Its from the playstation silksong page when you view them in the mobile app im pretty sure

[harsh yarrow]

Ahh

[real fractal]

and its definitely gonna come out this year! theyd never let us down

[iron fable]

oohhhh

[harsh yarrow]

Okay, weird

[iron fable]

that's why I hadn't seen it

[last cliff]

https://tenor.com/view/goku-vegeta-dancing-gif-13388389568631053314

[iron fable]

I don't think tc would make the same mistake twice

[last cliff]

this

[iron fable]

I'd block you too.
/s

[last cliff]

it was a joke

ppl love it

[iron fable]

sure they do ❤️

[last cliff]

how bruh i just want ppl to laugh

[uncut bolt]

fun fact: there are no slopes AT ALL in hollow knight

[harsh yarrow]

They are possible with modding, though

[real fractal]

i thought nsfl posts werent allowed 😱

[iron fable]

there is slope in one spot

[harsh yarrow]

they're just uh
Broken as all goddamn hell

[last cliff]

even i was a release player quit after getting c3 gepard

[kind ermine]

there is at least 1 slope in hollow knight : silksong

[sand lodge]

Yeah, It shows up on google if you search it but its not the acutal page itself for some reason

[real fractal]

next slope is being revealed next year once its finished

[iron fable]

my friend is actually TRYING to get c6 gepard

[last cliff]

i played for a month then stopped

[harsh yarrow]

Huh. Okay then

[last cliff]

i hated that girl clara so much

[iron fable]

bro she's like my second favourite damn..

she's a cutie patootie

and svarog is cool robo dad

[last cliff]

her lines were just help me, save them all mr.svarog

felt annoying

[iron fable]

that is her character yes
she's a child with no shoes in a winter planet

she cannot fight lol

[last cliff]

gepard was a chad with his shield

[iron fable]

but his sister tho

(not lynx)

(the other one)

[last cliff]

ig so but i still didnt like her

[iron fable]

fair enough

[last cliff]

i vaguely remember her

welt was so bad back then

idk abt him now

[kindred pewter]

is this from that mid anime solo leveling

[real fractal]

empty guard: woolmusic

[last cliff]

i liked wuwa more

[last cliff]

nah its from 7ds

[kindred pewter]

ah

[last cliff]

that char hax is insanely good

but he lost to my chad escanor

isint hornet a bug so technically batman

[iron fable]

cyborg ari gibson saves skong but batman still wins

[kindred pewter]

Hornet just has to say "at least my parents lived longer" and Batmid would be defeated

[warm thicket]

We be getting skong before gta 6

[last cliff]

if same size scaling even then batman would win

[harsh yarrow]

They've both got ~8 months

[last cliff]

not arkham batman

[kindred pewter]

you see I dont know anything about arkham batman

[warm thicket]

Wat

[last cliff]

he is a menace

[last cliff]

to release

[iron fable]

he punched my hamster

[warm thicket]

Oh didn't see the announcement

[harsh yarrow]

Isnt GTA 6 also scheduled for this year?

[warm thicket]

Oh what didn't see any announcement

[iron fable]

silksong comes out 2025

[warm thicket]

DEMO! HAHA!

[quiet knot]

alo

[warm thicket]

I meant for gta6

[iron fable]

it comes out some day

[last cliff]

yeah around may it will next yr

[harsh yarrow]

Ah, Okay

[last cliff]

no way that less

[warm thicket]

ThE CaKe wAs rEaL

[harsh yarrow]

4

Spells count as tools, ish
They're also a sloted thing

[iron fable]

each crest could change the types and amounts of equippable tools tho iirc

[last cliff]

one piece is real

[warm thicket]

Huh

.

[harsh yarrow]

Theres 4 colors of slots, red, blue, orange/yellow, and white

[iron fable]

bro is the most confused person I've ever seen

[warm thicket]

I previously thought the crests were the charms lol

[warm thicket]

I just say huh a lot idk why

[iron fable]

crests change your needle attacks, that's the only guaranteed info we know about them, the rest is spculation

[harsh yarrow]

White is spells, seen in the Edge Magazine, Red seems to be weapons/active use tools, blue and yellow I dont think we've ever gotten a good enough idea for

[iron fable]

probably more passive types or something else

[warm thicket]

I'd like to see what the dream nail ish skill will be

Ok

[last cliff]

imagine a creature which vomits and when we equip its tool we can release our spell as a vomit swamp

similar to flukenest

[warm thicket]

*vomits inside

[rocky flicker]

theres the purple goo in the creepy area

[iron fable]

well tbh we ccan never be sure until the game comes out lol
we won't be getting the dream nail exactly but we might end up with something along the same lines with some changes though

[rocky flicker]

aim hornets vomit with the switch 2 mouse joycon

[warm thicket]

I'm thinking of learning a song which will cause the listener to speak their inner thoughts

[harsh yarrow]

From what we know of SIlksong, something dealing with dreams likely wont be part of hornets kit

[fleet field]

why hasnt team cherry said anything yet 😭

[fleet field]

she'll deal with silk and song tho

[iron fable]

we don't know like ANYTHING regarding the lore though soooo

[rocky flicker]

silk

[iron fable]

song

[rocky flicker]

song

[fleet field]

[fleet field]

but cant them just retweet the nintendo announcement or something

[glossy berry]

they did?

[rocky flicker]

leth did

[glossy berry]

or at least leth did anyway

[iron fable]

and that's it lol
we can't be sure dreams or something similar won't be used

[rocky flicker]

tc probably forgot their twitter login

[iron fable]

sometimes people talk like we know the lore already lol

[last cliff]

nah it would be sideways by a grub like creature in hornet's hand which releases purple swamp from mouth

[fleet field]

yeah but idk

[harsh yarrow]

Look, the reason why dreams where so important in Hollow Knight is because its the way the black egg was accessed, and ultimately gives you the ability to destroy the Radiance
The threat Pharloom faces is far more tangible, and likely not the sun stowed away in the dream realm

[open narwhal]

dni if you're bald

[last cliff]

it could have lingering effect at that spot like the fluid from nosk

[glossy berry]

tbf why would you do something when youre actively paying a guy for community management

consoles do it for you dont waste resources on a blog post, they basically went dark for 2024 anyway

[rocky flicker]

me sobbing when the final boss is just radiance again
we've come full circle this is peak fiction

[iron fable]

true but that's why I said dreams OR something similar in function

it all depends on WHAT the thing haunting the kingdom is

[rocky flicker]

ooh I wonder if we gonna meet pharlooms wyrm

[glossy berry]

radiance 2
shes just slightly hue shifted green

[iron fable]

or how it works

[rocky flicker]

pharlooms wyrm is the final boss im calling it

[harsh yarrow]

Well, we know what its haunted by :3
Silk and Song

[iron fable]

so real

that's only a maybe

[rocky flicker]

source?

[iron fable]

trust me
she might've just been going out for chipotle

[rocky flicker]

mhm sure pal
either actually post a source or stop spreading misinformation

[iron fable]

chipotle workers*

[rocky flicker]

cant stand the people spewing this stupid stuff

[iron fable]

he's quite clearly fibbing

[last cliff]

this idea just makes me roll in laughter

[glossy berry]

so sick of the shitposting in here can people be serious for once, be real

[rocky flicker]

the royal retainers are so funny

[glossy berry]

fucked up smh

[rocky flicker]

they bow and I punch them once and they explode

[iron fable]

peak entertainment

[cunning geode]

how big are the guardian ape's rofl hitboxes

[glossy berry]

its enrichment to them

[rocky flicker]

whats the deal with dreams

[cunning geode]

all of the "bell caste" bugs dress that way

[rocky flicker]

like what are the retainers doing

[iron fable]

what if they didn't kidnap here and horent was just going for a stroll to ari gibson house

[rocky flicker]

are the kingsmolds alive

[cunning geode]

the royal retainers dont even wear veils they're just pale

[fleet field]

oh i just noticed leth is using the new silksong thing on his twitter banner

[iron fable]

uhhhhhh

[rocky flicker]

like they void so no, but they sentient so yes, but they in a dream so no

but then are things in dreams alive

[iron fable]

I guess not

[glossy berry]

literally just inception

[rocky flicker]

radiance is pretty alive shes fucking shit up from in a dream

[fiery burrow]

Kingsmoulds are robots

[iron fable]

but she be like affecting the real world and stuff

[rocky flicker]

deadass?

[fiery burrow]

Yeah the king made them in his workshop

[glossy berry]

i think things like the nightmare heart and radiance are odd cases on account of the whole Godlike-Adjacent Entity thing

[rocky flicker]

but I thought they were void constructs

[fiery burrow]

They are

[rocky flicker]

and idk if that means theyre alive

[iron fable]

they aint robot though, just void shaped and put into armor

[fiery burrow]

They are robots with a void interior

[cunning geode]

analogous to robots

[rocky flicker]

like If I make a robot out of living material is that thing alive

[iron fable]

at that point they should just be robots

[last cliff]

Pretty big imagine if it ain't got its head and has the huge sword also slashing around while rolling

[rocky flicker]

but they're alive (?)

[fiery burrow]

Void doesn't eat or drink or sleep or reproduce

[iron fable]

the void in them is what makes them move, not robotics

[fiery burrow]

Kingsmoulds aren't biologically alive

[rocky flicker]

but its pissed off

so what about the royal retainers

[iron fable]

but they aint robots

[glossy berry]

this basically just boils down to whether void counts as alive and not just sentient

[harsh yarrow]

They do not live... they're pretty goddamn close to robots lol

[last cliff]

Imagine a ss character with a mechanical arm....how badass would that be

[rocky flicker]

the royal retainers arent void they're just in a dream

[cunning geode]

https://tenor.com/view/data-star-trek-lean-fall-fail-gif-17153291

[rocky flicker]

and explode into dream dust when sneezed on

[rocky flicker]

the homonculus project will have to be postponed

[fiery burrow]

Royal Retainers might also be robots

[iron fable]

why they explode tho

[rocky flicker]

they got the little void eyes

[iron fable]

if they real why they explode

[last cliff]

Like androids

[rocky flicker]

they'e just weak as hell

[cunning geode]

and birds too!

[fiery burrow]

Robots can also have thoughts this is fiction

[cunning geode]

birds are robots

[rocky flicker]

the question isnt are they sentient its are they alive

[iron fable]

tiktiks don't explode like that so are they just all anemic or something

[rocky flicker]

they're weaker than tiktiks

and also in a dream

[iron fable]

if they have thoughts I think it probably means they're alive

[glossy berry]

two distinct states of being yeah

im inclined to say theyre Not because dream bullshit

[iron fable]

this makes me wanna see what happens when I kill hundreds of dream tiktiks

[rocky flicker]

tiktiks live outside in the harsh kings pass and have tough shells royal retainers are just fat cushioned nobles

[iron fable]

but like, do they explode

[rocky flicker]

I dont think kingsmoulds explode

[glossy berry]

they don't

[iron fable]

I forgot

they have void so it's different

[rocky flicker]

kingsmoulds are less alive than the royal retainers

[iron fable]

that's why they less explode than the royal retainers (trust me bro)

[rocky flicker]

living is a spectrum

[strange gulch]

has Primacon always been this unhinged?

[rocky flicker]

I saw his video today too its interesting

[iron fable]

and I'm on that spectrum (one of them at least)

[glossy berry]

sentience ≠ sapience ≠ living

[strange gulch]

yeah, but has he been this unhinged?

[iron fable]

plants are living though

[last cliff]

Yeah they are like nobles of hk

[rocky flicker]

yeah exactly so are dream fellas alive

[karmic comet]

THE SILKSONG, THE @wise robin

[rocky flicker]

because pale king is in a dream and also dead as fuck

[harsh yarrow]

Yes

[iron fable]

so like theoretically if void could taste things do you think it'd like cherry pie?

if not then what food would void like (asking for a friend)

that is wild

[rocky flicker]

it would consume everything edible and inedible

[iron fable]

but would it like cherry pie more than other things though

would the hivemind enjoy cherry pie

[rocky flicker]

probably less than moth

[strange gulch]

I wonder what would happen if we gave Primacon the full old Treehouse demo just to quench his thirst for only a few moments

[iron fable]

true I guess

[rocky flicker]

give him the entirety of silksong for 2 hours before taking it away forever

[glossy berry]

its difficult to extrapolate because awoken dream nail is inherently going to work differently to regular dreams

sorta view the white palace like a halfway point between Memories and Physical Place idk
you dont drop a shade in there compared to radiance

[rocky flicker]

and hes not allowed to record

[iron fable]

that's why I said if it COULD taste things which means it'd eat them or whatever the equivalent is

[strange gulch]

it's like giving a medieval peasant gatorage

[rocky flicker]

both end up with death

[iron fable]

but if they could taste it while absorbing it would they prefer to absorb cherry pie?

[rocky flicker]

bugs are tiny a cherry pie would be as big as fog canyon

[iron fable]

yes

that's why I said IF IT COULD

[rocky flicker]

how big is the void sea

[strange gulch]

and nobody will believe

[iron fable]

dinglehopper

[strange gulch]

[rocky flicker]

hes gonna need a padded room

[glossy berry]

void sea of tongues 😟

[iron fable]

well does the shade lord like cherry pie then?

[rocky flicker]

is the shade lord a bad guy

[iron fable]

depending on if he likes cherry pie or not I'll make my answer

bigger than a cherry pie?

[fresh zodiac]

oh damn I haven't seen that uet

[iron fable]

okay so maybe two cherry pies??

[glossy berry]

shade lord itself is roughly moth sized as we know ✍️
smaller than a pie

[robust marsh]

if I support hollow knight: Silksong, am I an SS soldier??

[cunning geode]

dont say that its not funny

[glossy berry]

not funny

[robust marsh]

I’m Jewish I can do that

[last cliff]

They paid tax to pale king

[cunning geode]

who cares

[iron fable]

so like I said, two cherry pies then??

[glossy berry]

can you prove this have you seen it and a pie at once

[iron fable]

okay so if it ate 90 cherry pies would it like them?

assuming it can taste them

[last cliff]

They must have plundered so much from the poor

Like her

[iron fable]

so by extension the void WOULD like absorbing cherry pie?

but if the shade lord controls the hivemind and he likes cherry pie then wouldn't the void prefer to aborb cherry pie??

[glossy berry]

word of god here yes

it would

[iron fable]

glad I got my answer

thanks

exactly, which means if the shade lord preferred cherry pie then the void would as well

[noble pulsar]

Greg rulzz ok

[strange gulch]

or is it like a virus? Both alive and dead?

[iron fable]

and as you said before, the shade lord would probably like cherry pie, so therefore the void likes cherry pie, and we can make team cherry into a cherry pie sacrifice to the void and ritual summon silksong tomorrow

oh shoot I just realized a flaw

we can't cook team cherry into 90 chery pies, maybe only two or three at most

and the shade lord only starts feeling it at 90

but it has to be cherry pie, not void pie

since when

[leaden leaf]

SKONG

[iron fable]

ah I see, so we make void flavored cherries out of void - flavored pie
you're a genius!

alr so basically we make around 87-88 void flavored cherries out of the void, bake it into a buncha pies (including the 2-3 team cherry pies) then feed it to the shade lord and void as sacrifice and ritual summon silksong tomorrow

cooking channel

[uncut bolt]

im gonna miss the silent protag while playing silksong tho

[iron fable]

I'm gonna miss the inter-void cherry pie lore

[uncut bolt]

[iron fable]

[gray parcel]

New people come in trying to tell ME whats peak or not

Queens gardens acid skip, it's pretty badass but also difficult

[iron fable]

questionable gang activities

[gray leaf]

[uncut bolt]

[gray leaf]

Yeah go away with your hk this is silksong

[iron fable]

mods get him, he wasn't following the rules I made up in my head

[cerulean sable]

wombat

you need to hop on GHPC

coop

(no coop yet were speaking in hypotheticals)

[cunning geode]

oh the tank game

[iron fable]

what are the quests gonna be like in silksong

[cunning geode]

https://imgur.com/sB5RCeN

[cerulean sable]

i just like the OST it reminds me of Black Mesa alot https://youtu.be/c6YnNjBYshM?t=169

[fiery burrow]

The game I bought on impulse because I liked the voice acting

[cunning geode]

oh yeah it is like black mesa kinda

[iron fable]

sighh bapanada.

[cerulean sable]

i feel like quests are going to be like, more like glorified checklists

[iron fable]

well yeah but I wanna know more about them

[cerulean sable]

rather than Monster Hunter style "kill x a y amount of times"

[iron fable]

kill menderbug 16 times was my favourite quest tho :<

[dusty nimbus]

Grocery store shopping for materials

[frozen pike]

I hope Hornet can make a web that captures bugs

Monster Hunter?

[fiery burrow]

I just hope they don't get monotonous

[dusty nimbus]

Grocery store shopping

[iron fable]

that'd be cool, like a projectile or trap that essentially staggers them for a bit

[frozen pike]

It's under her cloak

[frozen pike]

Yuhhh

[iron fable]

nuh uh we seen under her cloak, no abdomen exists

just leg and body

[frozen pike]

Silk has to come from somewhere

Also the knight is like holding a million things

[uncut bolt]

screenshotted

[frozen pike]

We don't see any of that

[iron fable]

it comes from her magic backpack

[open narwhal]

is that a chappell roan lyrics

[torpid orchid]

Is the mapping system of silksong same as HK?

[iron fable]

dunno

[frozen pike]

Yes

[iron fable]

I'd assume so

there will likely be one but it'd be funny if there wasn't lol

[frozen pike]

You have to befriend a member of the council in order to traverse the map, if you kill him tho you have to travel the game mapless

[harsh yarrow]

Impossible to know

[cunning geode]

https://tenor.com/view/spiderman-gif-10268002

[harsh yarrow]

We know the mapper, but now how the system will function

[iron fable]

i'm gonna pick up the rings and sell them

[frozen pike]

You have to give the guy silk

[iron fable]

you better change that S to an A right nwo

[frozen pike]

To make more paper

[torpid orchid]

The map character of silksong looks good at fighting. Perhaps we need a battle to get a map.

[frozen pike]

Silksong shadow fight 2

[iron fable]

guys is shakra really a guy, I thought it was a she

[frozen pike]

That's what I'm saying

[novel mango]

Same

[frozen pike]

They're bugs man they're probably both

[iron fable]

just looked it up it's a she

[torpid orchid]

no need to kill. Just defeat her.

[iron fable]

yall are dimwitted, somewhat silly in nature, even

[harsh yarrow]

Im pretty sure it isnt a guy this time lol

[novel mango]

We would probably defeat them to get the maps

[frozen pike]

Give the map maker silk for more paper

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah, its Shakra, kinda sad we dont have much on her

[iron fable]

paper come from tree, not spider, stoopidddd

[harsh yarrow]

Apperently is also going to be a tools vendor?

[torpid orchid]

And she gets stronger everytime. So it gets more difficult to get a map... It's a possibility.

[frozen pike]

Silk paper exists what

There's not even trees in hollow knight

[harsh yarrow]

oh no, she just is good at map

[iron fable]

nuh uh, trees exist because white lady

[frozen pike]

Aw hell nah

[iron fable]

I'm gonna turn white lady into my next a4 sheet

[fiery burrow]

Not a tree

[iron fable]

nah

[iron fable]

close enough
