[peak copper]

If Silksong were really dropping that day, they would've said just like they did with DT.

[fiery tartan]

It more feel like sekiro combat

[lone crown]

I think my favorite crest is the claw one

The buzzsaw pogo and whatnot

[fiery tartan]

That’s why I said hopefully

[lone crown]

Second’s reaper

[formal marsh]

oh hey @lone crown you were talking about that weird mask earlier

this thing could also have something to do with it

[harsh yarrow]

Wanderer is your jack of all trades
Reaper idk, seems like it'd be needle focused and tool focused
Harp focuses more on spells (kinda fitting with its more HK like moveset)
Claw is def a crest focused on needle damage
Gear is probably tool focused
Boomerang I'd guess is tool focused

[lone crown]

Possible although i feel like getting it from the ant npc is more likely, considering his mask is 1-1 with the tool

Discord should add a feature to rearrange pins lowkey

[harsh yarrow]

I love the idea that the Gear Crest gives you the ability to slowly rebuild told while exploring

Seems like it could be broken, though

[fiery burrow]

🔥

Continue cooking

[fiery tartan]

I don’t understand any of this crap

[fiery burrow]

None of these words are in the bible

[harsh yarrow]

Me taking a stab about the focus/niche of each crest

[fiery tartan]

What words

[heavy mason]

Also I wonder how regular human feels that ss is coming this year

[harsh yarrow]

Based on what we've seen

[lone crown]

Do not discuss this user just let it go

[heavy mason]

Yuh fine

[lone crown]

Anyway have every living entity/character in Pharloom so far

[heavy mason]

Add sherma

[fiery tartan]

That’s a name I haven’t heard of since 10 mins

[lone crown]

He’s already there

Everyone is

[heavy mason]

We’re

See him

MY BOI

THIS PEACE IS WHAT ALL TRUE WARRIORS STRIVE FOR

[fiery tartan]

Forgot about this guy

[heavy mason]

My favorite silksong character Jack bug

[south lantern]

Silk and Steel!

[heavy mason]

The void

[true cape]

flint and void

[lone crown]

“You were supposed to be the hero, brian!”
Jack Black: “i’m beginning to like that name.. ”

[fiery tartan]

In the game turns out he is the overseer of all pharloom

[crimson ember]

Will we see the hollow knight again in silksong?

23 he just be there too?

[fiery tartan]

“ You don’t get it… I’m the one that made the silk into the song”

[crimson ember]

Probably no returning characters

[fiery tartan]

“ this bag feels heavy , it gotta have geo in it” . “ Nah its probably a mossbag”

[harsh yarrow]

That'd confirm an ending, and thusly will not happen

[south lantern]

No matter what he either gets sealed, becomes a god, or returns to the abyss

[livid tree]

in what?

[crimson ember]

Skong

[livid tree]

hollow knight was shot dead in philadelphia

[tawdry valley]

No characters with multiple endings to their story can, will, or should return

[fiery tartan]

Sking skong

[livid tree]

you didnt hear

[tawdry valley]

*pillidelphia

[coarse leaf]

the only npc with the highest chance of showing up in silksong is mister mushroom

[crimson ember]

What about the new born stag you fund the egg it hatches from

[coarse leaf]

wonder what he'll relay to hornet

[serene chasm]

should have moved in with his uncle in Bel aire

[fiery tartan]

he was shot by the best hitmen in the west of Mississippi

[tawdry valley]

Grimm troupe isn’t unlikely

[wispy stream]

is mr mushroom like
the stan lee of the hollow knight universe

[fiery tartan]

The Gaster of hollow knight

[coarse leaf]

the fucking Doflamingo lookin ass bug took his place probably

[barren sequoia]

What if hornet falls into a pile of the spores and starts to trip balls and have to fight a dream version of the knight

[south lantern]

You don't find a newborn stag. You just find the egg

[wispy stream]

this too

[tawdry valley]

Why is it only a front view of jim

Travesty

[lone crown]

Oh nvm

[fiery tartan]

Imagine if silksong bosses have input reading

[crimson ember]

What we meet the stag in skong

[barren sequoia]

Hotnet is gonna get high at least once in silksong

Leth already confirmed that back in the riddles

[tawdry valley]

She’s climbing upward so yeah, duh

[serene chasm]

SS will be banned in Australia

[south lantern]

It's already confirmed that fast travel is different

[lone crown]

Can someone link to me where “The Voice” is initially mentioned? Via Trobbio description?

[coarse leaf]

australia censored version where mario warns Hornet that if she does drugs, she'll go to hell before she dies

[fiery burrow]

Seth

[lone crown]

Nope, Trobbio mentions it first

[fiery burrow]

guh?

[serene chasm]

does he

[lone crown]

Guh

[crimson ember]

Gorb

[fiery tartan]

The canon version

[fiery burrow]

Trobbio is described as a master of the voice

[lone crown]

Yeah, “master of the voice” Trobbio claims

[fiery burrow]

https://www.teamcherry.com.au/hk-physical-late-anniversary-celebration-silksong-mini-update/

[lone crown]

Thanks

[serene chasm]

oh yeah

[fiery burrow]

I don't think its literallly the voice its just because he's like a performer or something

[lone crown]

Oh

[spare fractal]

What is this supposed to be, Star?

[fiery burrow]

Master of the Stage, the Brush and the Voice, the flamboyant butterfly Trobbio seeks fame and adoration throughout Pharloom.

[barren sequoia]

I mean duh, video games have been banned in Australia since 1988

[fiery burrow]

Everything in Pharloom

[spare fractal]

Oh, alright then!

By the way, does the pengu on Starpengu stand for penguin?

[fiery burrow]

(Gef made the image I just added sh ade lord)

[lone crown]

My creation
Im gonna add “the voice” to it and also get a higher quality image

[fiery burrow]

yeah star + penguin

[fossil pawn]

if you were to tell me on march 31st that a skong release window would be announced, i would not believe you

[fiery tartan]

My gym teacher told me Penguins walk like that because they don’t got gluteus minimus like us

[fiery burrow]

Oooh gef you should add Shakra's clan

Fierce and intimidating, Shakra is a warrior seeking her master, who vanished under strange circumstances. Shakra’s clan are skilled fighters who can handle their own in the kingdom’s wilds. Usefully for Hornet, each member of the clan also hones a Craft-Skill and Shakra’s mastery of cartography will prove invaluable on Hornet’s adventure.

[celest fractal]

Hes all in

[lone crown]

Very good

[fiery tartan]

Alright guys I’m gonna go so Remember . Make good choices, be good people and most importantly, don’t hate yourself for having fun

[lone crown]

I'm going to add that as well, nice catch i completely forgot that

[heavy mason]

Bruh

Imagine thinking it’s not coming out this year

[heavy mason]

So many creatures❤️

[lone crown]

Ari having to draw everything

[atomic sparrow]

how about the steel masters

[swift sand]

somehow i dont think its barely

[lone crown]

You mean the three steel assassins? Or do they have masters mentioned?

[celest fractal]

Me when I get the perfect opportunity to use random images I have on my PC

[slate wagon]

6 years and we’ve seen one weaver in the flesh so far

[barren sequoia]

Did you not see his announcement that like 34% of all ss art is ai generated?

[heavy mason]

Man

[barren sequoia]

I dont get it

[heavy mason]

She killed her master?

[celest fractal]

Its a Zote precept

Zote gets a student alternate universe

[atomic sparrow]

confessor jiji and steel soul jinn's masters I mean
I don't think it is explicitly said that the steel assasins share the same masters as jiji and jinn but c'mon just look at jinn and the flying assasin shown in the reveal trailer

[lone crown]

Peak

[wispy rivet]

precept 13!

[lone crown]

They're related without a doubt

[celest fractal]

wu.. No what

[lone crown]

But i might refrain from including their masters

[tall cargo]

not even a little bit of doubt?

[lone crown]

They may not even be in Pharloom, considering Sharpe hails from another kingdom

[celest fractal]

The silkposting is extending to the discord oh god

[heavy mason]

Sorry

[fiery tartan]

Look at these guys . There are basically Mario and Luigi

[heavy mason]

What a cute village

[fiery tartan]

Hope it has the same vibes as dirt town

[heavy mason]

It’s the first villlage and you can help it so def

[lone crown]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6b-lWhn8pg

[heavy mason]

Also the barnacle village has its own ELDERBUG

[fiery tartan]

Oh god it does . Sounds like calamity music to me tho

[fiery tartan]

Elden bug

[celest fractal]

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-hollow-knight-gif-10142735480136358490

[barren sequoia]

Wonder why the tents are bug shaped

[heavy mason]

Elder hermitcrab

[barren sequoia]

If they arent fashioned from like bugs

[celest fractal]

Can't believe we won't be able to use these soon

[lone crown]

Silksong so far has 4 confirmed major towns. Caravan is described as Dirtmouth on wheels so you can count that as a fifth town if you'd like, considering its probably got stuff to offer on the scale of HK's dirtmouth

Caravan also shares the same lumafly light source the other major towns do

[heavy mason]

I see

Also that town is called bonebottom

[fiery tartan]

Now I really wanna play it but I’m still more excited for deltarune

[lone crown]

Yes

[barren sequoia]

I like the lumafly lights

[heavy mason]

We also have the bell town barnacle town and Gilded city town

[lone crown]

These are the only benches we have seen so far

[fiery burrow]

I appreciate them not showing many benches considering how scenic they were in HK

[fiery tartan]

What about one from undead parish

[heavy mason]

There’s like over 100

[fleet temple]

how many benches did they say they had in the edge interview? (also I'm better now dw)

[barren sequoia]

I think one is in the same area you fight trobbio

[fiery burrow]

uhh

[barren sequoia]

Its like the pink heart one

[fiery burrow]

They said it was "like 100" iirc but I take that to be an exaggeration

[lone crown]

100 designs

[desert citrus]

Is Bellhart the confirmed name since it doesn't say name is tbd?

[heavy mason]

Over 100 def

[lone crown]

Also having a lot makes sense since Pharloom HAS to be huge to accomodate for Hornet's speed

[celest fractal]

They've only showed like 5 areas of the game and they've been very careful about spoilers thus far so I imagine theres gotta be whole lot of areas

[fiery burrow]

okay I highly doubt thats accurate

[lone crown]

Of the major town? Yes, Bellhart is a name from the metadata leak

[fiery burrow]

Literally 100 designs would be bonkers

[heavy mason]

Oh cool

[lone crown]

Yeah its definitely an exaggeration, let me pull up the quote

[heavy mason]

I just call it bell city

[celest fractal]

I wonder how long the "Main Story" will be since if this game is anything like hollow knight the game with be 95% optional content

[fiery tartan]

Wasn’t there only one town in hk

[heavy mason]

Cus it’s full of bells and it’s long upwards

[heavy mason]

Yuh

[warped rock]

No

[fleet temple]

still though, that's like double the amount of hollow knight's
and that was back in 2020

[fiery tartan]

I meant hub world

[celest fractal]

I beat hollow knight the first time without ever even going to queens gardens, or the hive, or the white palace

[barren sequoia]

I honestly do wonder if ss will have another world

[serene chasm]

?

[barren sequoia]

Dint know what can be similar to the dream

[fiery tartan]

So witcher 3 basically

[heavy mason]

Pls let us go outside of pharloom

[celest fractal]

I also hope they find more interesting ways to hide secrets than breakable walls, If im being honest those weren't my favorite, I had to look up how to access both DLC's lol

[spare fractal]

There's definitely more than one town in hollow knight, but I don't think there's any inhabited towns aside from dirtmouth

[serene chasm]

Salubra town?

[slate wagon]

i think they’re gonna back off on that part
i hope they do at least, hornet and pharloom are more physical aside from the magic silk bullshit going on

[coarse leaf]

a population of one person doesn't count as a town

no matter how many buildings you have

[heavy mason]

Technically 4

[fleet temple]

iirc TC said that pharloom was more mechanical and technological rather than the more magical stuff we saw in hk

[spare fractal]

Oh yeah, the little town where Salubra, Sly (until he goes back to his shop) and Menderbug are

[spare fractal]

Menderbug

[heavy mason]

Sly menderbug and MOTHER

[desert citrus]

There's also mantis village. Don't know if that could count

[heavy mason]

Yea

[coarse leaf]

ohhhh yea that one

[heavy mason]

But it’s more of a tribe

[spare fractal]

Oh yeah the Mantis aren't infected at all

[heavy mason]

Only the male ones

[spare fractal]

They're just aggressive until you gain the Mantis Lords' respect

[warped rock]

Mantis village and greenpath

[spare fractal]

Yeah only the males

[warped rock]

no

[heavy mason]

The male ones are in the gardens and are infected

[warped rock]

what makes you think that i'm curious

[heavy mason]

We seen it

There bigger

[fiery tartan]

The males are too arrogant

[coarse leaf]

"males are losers" messaging 😭

[warped rock]

yes because they're infected

[slate wagon]

aren’t the females typically bigger in that case?

[heavy mason]

Felmale mantis do eat the males heads off

[lone crown]

I hate skimming text i struggle to pinpoint it

[spare fractal]

Who the fuck lived in greenpath I forgot if anyone lived there aside from Sheo

[fiery tartan]

Savage

[heavy mason]

Doesn’t seem like it

[warped rock]

mosskin

[heavy mason]

During mating

[spare fractal]

Oh yeah the mosskin are just kinda vibing

[heavy mason]

No wonder nearly the males left the tribe

man I really need to learn more about the lore of hallownest and its people

[fiery tartan]

Don’t worry . I gotta a bag of moss for you

[coarse leaf]

wonder how matpat's succesor will do on making a silksong theory

[lone crown]

Wait I missed a bench location

[heavy mason]

80% is dead

[fiery tartan]

They are nitpicking and biased . Bye bye I win

[heavy mason]

Or infected

[lone crown]

Very tricky since its obscured behind a toolpage

But we've seen the design already

This room i dont recognize at all however

Keep in mind this screenshot/tool menu is very old and likely outdated

[coarse leaf]

oo I wonder if there's a pimpillo ending

[heavy mason]

Looks like moss grotto

[serene chasm]

near here

[lone crown]

100%

Definitely could lead to there

[fiery tartan]

I don’t know why her knowing up is big meme material

[spare fractal]

can't wait for tom's theory about why hornet is void and the knight is silk

[fiery tartan]

Perfect

[lone crown]

I need this game

Will there will be input reading in silksong

[atomic sparrow]

who is the biggest hollow knight fan out there

[fiery tartan]

Not me . I tryna gain weight

[lone crown]

Im very excited for the new gimmicks in each area ngl

Even the simple things, like Deep Docks' walking-on-hot-coals

It should make exploration very refreshing and interesting

As if the enemy ai and traps werent cool already

Like cutting your silk during a grapple

[fiery tartan]

What y’all think of design . I’m planing on a story

I’m not good at pixel art . That’s why it looks like he’s holding it by his one finger and thumb

[lone crown]

Maybe if the hilt were deeper embedded into the hand it'd look like the knight's holding it more firmly

But im no expert on art

[fiery tartan]

Yeah that’s the big problem

[atomic sparrow]

not quite sure on what the head is supposed to be

[lone crown]

Also fun fact, fleas can be captured by enemies instead of just finding them

[fiery tartan]

A rectangle like this

I got his design from artorias

[atomic sparrow]

I'd say try to improve on the legs down from the waist to the knees because rn it looks like just one single piece instead of armour

[lone crown]

I was thinking of Artorias!

[atomic sparrow]

like pants or smth
also probably better to bring it to #art-discussion

[fiery tartan]

Ok thanks

I got another but I didt have good colouring

I always feel like a narcissist when I post stuff of what I did and feel proud of .

[lone crown]

Somehow I feel like im better at making 3d art than i am with 2d stuff

[iron fable]

thats cool as hell

[lone crown]

And I rarely ever make art

[young saffron]

Please just release already, I can't contain my self any longer

[fiery tartan]

You got any you wanna show

Solely cause of these:

[fiery tartan]

Pure vessel looks rad and dung eater looks adorable .

His chest looking like a basket ball

[smoky dagger]

No evil spells bro quit it

Evil spells are bad

[fiery tartan]

What?

[smoky dagger]

I'm speaking to you, magic ball.

[fiery tartan]

[smoky dagger]

Oh do your words not foretell the future anymore

[minor linden]

hot take
Wind waker and Twlight princess are better at being OOT sequels then Majorias mask, its still a great game but dam im never replaying it again

[smoky dagger]

I was thinking you were forcing a fellow to gain a basket ball for a chest

Which would be super evil

[fiery tartan]

Why would I do that

[smoky dagger]

I love majoras mask and twilight princess and I've only seen the end bits of wind waker (all watching my friend play on the systems they came out on not playing them myself) watching ocarina of time for first time right now he's playing it on one of those old ass crt tvs

I say right now I watch him like once a week or every two weeks

[fiery tartan]

I wanna play Zelda games but I’m scared of pirating Nintendo games

[smoky dagger]

I think watching my buddy play them it's really obvious like
Every game in the past 30 years is deeply deeply influenced by those games if not directly then like because they're influenced by something that was influenced by them

[fiery burrow]

Undercooked take

[fiery tartan]

This is another character I call “ Sir knight Ivan”

[fiery burrow]

Its like biting into a hot pocket but its cold

On second thought the analogy doesn't make sense but what I mean to say is that your take is bad and I'm personally offended

[viscid wind]

Hello

[wispy rivet]

hi!

[fiery tartan]

I forgot to add my apt no to the address so I ask my mom if she contact uniuni to add it

[viscid wind]

theoretically, if you find a usb on a stroll, and it contained thousands of photos of you, from every single day for the past 5 years. And songsong just released, would you forget about it and play silksilk

[fiery tartan]

No

That’s actually the most creepiest shit ever

[shell yacht]

Someone would be getting hunted down

[fiery tartan]

I’m gonna be like “ Should I call the police and if I do will the guy that did this kill me”

[versed pollen]

In every single image is a grandfather clock he's never seen

[fiery burrow]

What an icebreaker

[viscid wind]

call the police? on whom anyway

[fiery tartan]

The mystery man

[viscid wind]

you can't just tell the police that the mystery man is after you

[rustic ore]

yeah that's why you get the FBI instead

[versed pollen]

You can probably tell the police someone has been photographing you for the past 5 years without your permission though

[fiery tartan]

Yeah that would work

But what happens if I do . Will the guy come after me and kill me if I do

[viscid wind]

maybe, do you get placed under like protection or something then

[fiery tartan]

Will he make me watch Thick of it . That’s the worst thing ever

[rustic ore]

considering the possibility of the USB being planted by the person, you might be put under protection in case the guy makes a move

[fiery tartan]

I like drawing beards on animals

[shell yacht]

Plot twist the USB is from your FBI agent, he wants you to enter witsec and he wants to be your witsec agent so it's just you two

[fiery tartan]

When I went in the aquarium. There were cooler animals but I only decided to take a photo of this fish because I wanted to draw a beard

Remember guys, when you start silksong, be sure to check for a breakable wall/secret passage here

[heavy mason]

Relyea is the goat

Remember guys, when you start Silksong, stop

[shell yacht]

[heavy mason]

Why do you hate him

[lone crown]

Its definitely still existent since the small platform would be useless otherwise

[cunning geode]

he owes water some water

[lone crown]

Or it could be a one-way breakable thing

[fiery tartan]

I really tryna look for this

[cunning geode]

i was thinkin that when i first saw you pointing out the new wall on april 2nd

if its still got a path there it could be one way

[lone crown]

Shouldnt hurt to check anyway

[cunning geode]

it better hurt

[lone crown]

Honestly good thing its hidden to streamline the tutorial for mfs who get lost somehow

[heavy mason]

Relyea did nothing wrong

Yeah

It could be that, would make more sense prolly

I do wonder where the tutorial is relative to other locations

[lone crown]

To the left of moss grotto in general is definitely the clover area

Hmmmmm

[brittle arch]

bad piggies area ?

[lone crown]

God, so many interesting areas potentially accessible from the grotto

[brittle arch]

1,5 secrets that's it

[heavy mason]

We might need an ability though

I don’t think we can access that when we start in the game

It’s kind of like getting to the rest of Kings pass

You need the mantis claw or go another way

[trim estuary]

or dave is blocking it

[heavy mason]

Dave

[trim estuary]

[heavy mason]

If he’s still in the actual game, we can still call him Dave

Same w ass Jim

waiting for ass jim deserve 10 years

[lone crown]

Silkspear confirmed first key ability to unlock btw

Should be located after the first Sherma encounter

[brittle arch]

dash ?

[lone crown]

Its used to break through web barriers

[lone crown]

Nope, the big ass thrust attack

[young saffron]

confirmed where?

[lone crown]

Edge magazine

Parsing the information further

[brittle arch]

lets go hornet booty drop

[lone crown]

Man they really did give us a ton of information

Edge magazine kinda goated

Sherma -> grab silk spear -> find elevator back to bonebottom -> backtrack to the marrow -> silk spear opens progression -> fight bellbeast -> songshrine -> the real game begins

[heavy mason]

Technically moss grotto is the tutorial

[lone crown]

Well i know

[heavy mason]

But after the first bell then it’s prob deep docs

Also sherma is like

[lone crown]

Lava zone yeah

[heavy mason]

You also meet the mapper as well

But sherma is more important

[lone crown]

Bonebottom itself is centered near grotto, boneforest, and the marrow

[coarse leaf]

Yo

Chat has calmed down I see

[heavy mason]

The marrow seems like a second layer area

[heavy mason]

Basically, like it’s inside its own layer on the map

Like rain world

Since that’s where all the transportation is gonna be

[lone crown]

Or you mean like ancestral mound?

[heavy mason]

It’s in the cracks of pharloom

[fiery tartan]

Guys do y’all know a trick to not hate yourself everytime you’re having fun

[lone crown]

Like the z axis shit?

chances ss releases same time as switch 2?

[heavy mason]

Prob not

Or they would have said

[lone crown]

I have strong hopes for June

But don’t expect anything

[heavy mason]

I say may

[coarse leaf]

EZ,be happy.

[shell yacht]

It's probably not coming out in June because they could have just said coming out with the switch two if it was

Gta 6 coming out Q4 2025 right?

[heavy mason]

Most likely

[coarse leaf]

So silksong has built hype for years now

[lucid holly]

Idk I thought you were an excited German about the bundesliga

[livid tree]

nah

[lucid holly]

Though it’s uefa right bow

[coarse leaf]

It'd be very dumb of TC to release the game close to gta 6 bcus gta 6 would overshadow any hype silksong has.

[lucid holly]

When is gta coming out

[coarse leaf]

In that sense,we can cope that silksong could release anytime from today to September.

[lucid holly]

Or

2027

[coarse leaf]

Fall 2025

[brittle arch]

news is pretty much we can get, they won't just gonna shadow drop it

[celest fractal]

Alot of people are on the subreddit are proposing that william's cake account is foreshadowing a release date/month, theres a good chance its just copium to the absolute max though lol

Their supposed date is July

[lucid holly]

https://tenor.com/view/rule59-rule-59-silksong-broly-gif-23736501

[celest fractal]

Most people seem to agree it'll drop anywhere from May-September

[lucid holly]

Silksong 2028

[coarse leaf]

Maybe they didn't show specific date bcus silksong gonna release before switch 2 releases

Invite Tom cruise i guess

[cerulean sable]

again im in the camp considering Leth acknowledged the Xbox thing during a Blue interview, Silksong is going be this year because if they felt like they couldnt hit this period then they couldve easily stayed silent again throughout 2025 (just like what they did in 2024)

[lucid holly]

Tom cruise as sherma

[cerulean sable]

and yeah like sure people will complain and cry about it but thats like the usual at this point

Guys

Hornet Vs Nosk who wins?

Now before yall instantly say Hornet let me just say this

Nosk has the ability to mimic people

[floral delta]

So..?

[compact night]

He did mimic hornet in that one boss fight

So uh idk

[lucid holly]

hornet clears

[compact night]

Maybe it has the upper hand

[lucid holly]

https://tenor.com/view/no-that-is-not-solid-snake-metal-gear-solid-true-cannibalsigmaxdhd-gif-11621949466855415513

[serene chasm]

Hornet wins cause Nosk wouldnt be able to mimic anyone she cares about (Hornet doesnt care about anyone)

[lucid holly]

hornet cares about lace fr fr

biblically

[opaque sigil]

the mimicry lets it lure people to its lair but it doesn't really help in the actual fight

[floral delta]

Surely Nosk has been to Pharloom

[lucid holly]

nosk is the final boss

i kidnapped john silksong and he told me

he also told me Absolute Zote is the secret boss

[floral delta]

Absolute Zote 😭

[lucid holly]

he also said the game is releasing in april

2027

[compact night]

While it has been seen in game in my personal opinion I don’t really like how hornets character is seen as “she has no emotions and just cares about fighting blah blah” it’s very clear she has this VERY tough persona shaped because of the world she’s in but she’s not an emotionless killing mechine but that’s just me

[lucid holly]

signalis and silksong crossover is the first title update for silksong btw

[smoky nebula]

If herrah wasn't in a dreamer maybe hornet could have been taken aback for a moment before resolving to kill the impostor

[lucid holly]

oh also important to mention its going to be a live service game now

[serene chasm]

Team Cherry isnt cool enough to do crossovers

[cerulean sable]

just realized this

its time...

[serene chasm]

This time we have to win

Yes

[cerulean sable]

This time, we WILL win...

[serene chasm]

Hornet has emotions

I was making a joke

[oblique musk]

Where did my reply go

[compact night]

Yea I know

Also

You guys think hornet still cares for the pale king?

since ya know that’s her dad and all

[oblique musk]

I mean, she has killed at least one of her siblings and attempted to kill another. It may well be that she only really cares for her mom.

[craggy cave]

No she's void

[weary tapir]

I can not say I recommend the minecraft movie

it was mostly just jack black and jason momoa being gay for an hour and 40 minutes

Geoff finally getting silksong in his show

[cerulean sable]

Gotta get that SGF bucks...

[compact night]

That’s dark…

I thought it would be more wholesome…

[smoky nebula]

The guys a pretty shitty dad

[cerulean sable]

(tbf Blazko's dad was a nazi /s)

for Hornet i honsetly think shes particularly emotional regarding PK

Her response with Herrah was like, i have no qualms about it you gotta do you what you gotta but im at least thankful for her for giving me a life

[compact night]

Honestly I can imagine 💯 the pale king has FULL regrets and would completely understand his daughters anger towards him

[heavy mason]

Hm

[cerulean sable]

shes more attached with Herrah though

PK i dont think she particularly cares

[serene chasm]

Hornet is pragmatic. She'd kill a person she cares for it she knew it would save the world

[opaque sigil]

he deserved worse I can't lie

[cerulean sable]

TRUE

[compact night]

The pale king or the other guy?

[opaque sigil]

the wolfenstein character

[compact night]

Oh

[opaque sigil]

I mean yeah she had a limited relationship with herrah but no relationship at all with pk

[cerulean sable]

ye

[compact night]

I think the pale king is like a pretty tragic character

[opaque sigil]

he is yes

[compact night]

He was so caught up in trying to make his kingdom good that he just kinda forgot about everyone else

[opaque sigil]

I mean it's not really that it's just ozymandias stuff but with an actual god instead of a king

well he's a king too but you get the idea

[iron fable]

do we ever see any of this crest's attacks?

[iron fable]

I'd assume no but I'm still wondering

[strange gulch]

we've increased ever since the april 2nd announcement

[serene chasm]

unless Im wrong, I think that crest got replaced with the claw one

[mortal bluff]

I’m scared guys

[iron fable]

that's cool tbh

[serene chasm]

Is some bald kid coming after you?

[mortal bluff]

No, I just had a thought. If the Grimm troupe is a ritual, and it ends with you beating Nightmare King Grimm, then that means there are others out there in other kingdoms strong enough to beat Nightmare King Grimm

Who are these horrifying monstrosities??!

[iron fable]

mr mushroom

[solemn juniper]

Pretty sure it's one troupe that travels all over.

[iron fable]

he meant others as in other people strong enough to beat nkg

[solemn juniper]

Ohhh, yeah I'm dumb...

[opal lance]

I did mainly join just to see the reaction :)

[iron fable]

its fine reading is hard

[mortal bluff]

Yeah, but they need to give the heart a new host by defeating NKG and transferring the flame. The heart seeks immortality

[solemn juniper]

Well, the other "special performers" could simply have died. Most of them at least and then they moved on. Because I doubt many can even hurt a god.

[mortal bluff]

I think homie needs to die to transfer that sweet sweet Grimm juice yo

[solemn juniper]

The Grimm troupe doesn't really have an explanation. For all we know Grimm is very young or could have been searching for centuries.

[iron fable]

just checked and in the edge magazine it shows BOTH that crest and the claw one, so they are indeed separate from what I can tell

[solemn juniper]

Also don't exactly know when the Grimm child becomes "Grimm."

[serene chasm]

i stand corrected

[iron fable]

that just means more types of attacks, it's really a positive tbh

[solemn juniper]

Anyways, Grimm is cute, that's all that matters.

[serene chasm]

I dont believe its ever shown up after the edge mag, so it may have been removed. But we will have to see

[mortal bluff]

True, but brumm talks about this being recursive in nature. Also yes mega cutes

[iron fable]

could be, but also we only just saw the gear one and it might not show up again either, we'll only really know when we get silksong tbf

oh and that one weird other one from the playstation storepage screenshots hasn't been seen since either

looks like a bow

[carmine island]

We also haven’t seen that green thingomabobber sonde this screenshot

On the silk meter

[serene chasm]

Yeah. I need to make an all crest image

[serene chasm]

We have

[iron fable]

that'd be very helpful

[carmine island]

Oh cool

[iron fable]

free my mans

[serene chasm]

Not the best image, grindles gif has a lot of noise and didnt upscale well

[iron fable]

I think it might end up being that blue tool thing that is green coloured and likely related to the mossberries

[solemn juniper]

Do you all just have silksong content saved up all the time?

[iron fable]

I just try to remember stuff tbh
I should really save everything but meh

[carmine island]

Maybe a reward for the moss Druid quest but that’s only speculation

[iron fable]

yep yep that's what I was thinking it might be

[solemn juniper]

I don't even remember the stuff, I'm just waiting for silksong and will discover everything that way.

[iron fable]

fair enough

[solemn juniper]

You are already more dedicated than me.

[iron fable]

nah I just have an obsession

[carmine island]

Silksong addiction ruins families

[harsh vector]

holy fuck the game looks terrible

no wonder its taking so long

[iron fable]

the slopes, its all because of the slopes

too hard to code

[coral prawn]

Thats why I am a gambling addict/j🙏

[serene chasm]

Thats an old crappy picture too

[trim estuary]

Yeah from 2020

That was like before half this server was conscious

hoenstly wish Hornet had access to crushed lumafly paste/gel that she can coat her needle with to give her 60 seconds of +8 lightning damage

...Jarvis google if Feargus Urquhart (Crazy name by the way) has any ties to major blackjack companies

[tawdry valley]

Courier that needs to run < courier that you need to run from

[uneven pond]

I'd perfer if she had green goop that can turn into Goornet (Not to be confused with her cousin Jornet)

[tawdry valley]

I spent my FNV playthrough as a maniac that took off all clothing items during combat, pulled out a knuckleduster, and started uppercutting wildlife

[uneven pond]

Based

[tawdry valley]

Naturally I spent my character creation time recreating waluigi

[uneven pond]

Mine was the basic Speech build (I still shredded the earlygame because I found Chances Knife really quickly)

I was in the area because when the Saloon owner told me to go up the road to Nipton I thought it was the one with all the cazadores

Good times

[weary tapir]

this game probably still has my favorite sound design ever

[uneven pond]

Based, mine are the New Vegas Casinos

[weary tapir]

great choice as well

[uneven pond]

Little tip, only do Blackjack and always do the max bet

Also get maxed Luck

[craggy cave]

Luck 6 got me robbing all the casinos

[uneven pond]

Hell yeah (I get luck 10 because I usually do crit builds anyways)

[prime parrot]

lalalalava

[uneven pond]

Okay well luck 8 technically but it comes out to 10 after the Early Bird bonus

[serene chasm]

@iron fable

[uneven pond]

ooooohhhh prettyyyy

[iron fable]

yippeeee

[neon adder]

I really like the new crest designs

[calm cargo]

Why does the UI keep changing?

[craggy cave]

So many crests

[iron fable]

different crests

[calm cargo]

What’s with the crests? That apart of Silksong’s version of charms?

[neon adder]

I assume so

[iron fable]

part of it

[craggy cave]

More like charm slots and stuff

[calm cargo]

Guessing the wheel is a silk meter or smth

[serene chasm]

Crest change hornets attacks

[uneven pond]

Most of the actual stuff is finished before the deadline so they have time for some fun stuff

[serene chasm]

Lets the player find a fighting style they like

[craggy cave]

Crests have different slots I think?

[serene chasm]

That too

[carmine island]

They’re really indecisive

[calm cargo]

I want a God of War 3 style opening where you’re completely maxed out and have an OP boss fight, and then you’re so weak afterward from something

In the godhome endings, we see Hornet’s about to fight PV - I want that.

[craggy cave]

Sounds like mobile mmorpgs

[calm cargo]

I want us to have a boss fight right off the bat against PV before we go to the new region.

[coarse leaf]

Whats with the hype of SilkSong?

[calm cargo]

Confirmed to release 2025 in a Nintendo direct

[carmine island]

Can we put a big red question that’s also on fire for the pictures of attacks with crests we don’t have pictures for?

[cerulean sable]

man crests has to be a bitch to balance out

honey its time for your turn to replay the entire game again because weve decided to tweak the crests a little bit

[coarse leaf]

Oh ya ik dat i watched the direct but why is the game such a big deal?

[signal crag]

...how about if the number of tools slots is universally shared by all crests, so the only difference between them is the moveset changes?

[cerulean sable]

Well because people loved HK and basically wanted more?

[celest fractal]

I saw an art piece once of nosk mimicking hornet saying something along the lines of "lol what a bunch of dumbasses" from someone making fun of people raiding every game event for silksong lol

[cerulean sable]

and the fact that Silksong is shaping up to be HK but expanded further is just your typical reasons to be excited foor it

In the end the fans just want more Hollow Knight

You cant really know why unless youre a fan of the game tbh

[signal crag]

Then, you find upgrades that gives you more slots, which is then applied to all crests.

[fleet temple]

How much of the game do you think has been hidden from us?
like with all we've seen in trailers and screenshots I feel like knowing how TC don't like spoiling too much I feel like there's a shit ton we don't know about it

[cerulean sable]

at least 80% imo

[ruby shell]

still cant believe the game is actually real im so hype

[cerulean sable]

theyve been showing us the same images for most part just as a ballpark of progress

[fleet temple]

Agreed

[cerulean sable]

most of the people here didnt really doubt that tbh

[fleet temple]

but it's just exciting to think about it

[carmine island]

Are you asking why fans of a game are excited about a game release window?

[ruby shell]

like i knew it would come out eventually but I can actually allow myself to be excited again

[cerulean sable]

Same

[fleet temple]

especially with how much variety we've seen in the areas, the fact there's probably a lot more just fills me with hype

[coarse leaf]

I was a fan for a while but then i kinda moved on yo other games

[cerulean sable]

Well some people are still closely attached to HK then

and having more of that through Silksong but incredibly expanded is a good enough reason to be excited

[coarse leaf]

I should try it out then 🤔

[cerulean sable]

You still see people here pop up trying to find a replacement for HK

but never getting satisfied

[fleet temple]

I do think that there is not going to be another delay like there was in 2022/3
This game is definitely ready to release this year imo

[signal crag]

The different HUDs represents the crest Hornet is currently wearing.

[cerulean sable]

imo its just a culmination of several factors but the biggest contributor IMO is the atmosphere

i mean ofc you have people clamorring about the exploration and combat too but it just melds all of it together

[smoky nebula]

That's because there's drugs in the code

[coarse leaf]

So this year we got:
Gta 6
Mario Kart World
SilkSong
Duskbloods
Donkey Kong Banaza

[fleet temple]

the only game that really came close to hollow knight for me was haiku imo

[cerulean sable]

HK in particular doesnt really do anything new, its just that it does those things so well on top of having a unique world that isnt generic fantasy, dark fantasy, or scifi futuristic

having a unique world through the lens bugs gave it a lot of personality

game wouldnt be as popular imo if it was just generic dark fantasy with knights other than people calling it yet another Dark Souls ripoff as of that time

[carmine island]

Laced with crack

[cerulean sable]

as repetitive as it is getting, the world of HK actually feels brand new and unique, and fans basically wanna see more of that

[smoky nebula]

Soon™

[coarse leaf]

Ok, ill give it a shot. I actually have the ps4 version so ill play that later

[fleet temple]

yeah so many metroidvanias I've seen kinda just feel like "what if x but it's a metroidvania"

[smoky nebula]

What if bugs but Metroidvania

[fleet temple]

which isn't necesserily a bad thing obviously but I do think it sometimes robs the potential of a unique world and setting

[cerulean sable]

yeah

also sometimes it teethers to just being edgy

i feel like Blasphemous is the only game that actually got close enough for me to enjoy the world because growing up as catholic and seeing those creepy ass paintings does wonders to your imagination of whats fucked up

That and Silent Hill 1-4, they just have that occult creepy feeling to them

[smoky nebula]

Taco why are all the Metroidvanias in kingdoms afflicted by an undead curse

[cerulean sable]

With dodge rolling

[smoky nebula]

Wait what crappy ass potions

[fleet temple]

yeah
a lot of the times it just feels like they tried to do dark souls but without knowing what actually makes dark souls work

[smoky nebula]

I mean paintings

[smoky nebula]

Penitent one in silence🤍

[cerulean sable]

ie these types of paintings

even the book or revelations scared me as a kid

[serene chasm]

what kind of drugs were these people taking

[cerulean sable]

"oh wow lets break the seven seals and unleash fucked up beings beyond imagination"

[smoky nebula]

Well yeah it's a book about the end of the world talking about war and plague and destruction and false prophets

[cerulean sable]

seventh day nothing even happens, just pure silence

also its the color schemes these paintings use

Silent Hill has that reddish brown vibe to it as well

so yeah its kinda a half nostalgic thing for me 🥴

[neon adder]

Heironymus my boshloved

[smoky nebula]

The Bible is scary
Like what if your city gets Sodom and Gomorrahed

[cerulean sable]

but again going back, HK just has this amount of melancholic vibe to it that isnt SUPER DARK FANTASY TAKE ME SERIOUS RAHHHH

while still having some lightheartedness to it

[smoky nebula]

Hollow knight is sad and lonely

Except deepnest deepnest feels like everything is too close

[kindred pewter]

ngl, HK also has this Mellancholia vibe to it but also the goofiness and silliness like the existence of Zote

[cerulean sable]

yeah its sprinkled with playfullness

whereas other goes into grimderp territory that wants you to take it super seriously

[kindred pewter]

silksong should have a narrator and it would be jack black

[smoky nebula]

Even soulsborne games have some silliness
Look at patches

[kindred pewter]

and like every time hornet interacts with something jack black says it in the most cinematic way

"This..is pharloom!" "it's the deepdocks"

[serene chasm]

Nah. I want the guy from stanley parable

[kindred pewter]

but silksong isn't as good as stanley parable so it wouldn't work

[floral delta]

Yes

[smoky nebula]

First we silk, then we song
Let's silksong

[floral delta]

"First we craft, then we mine! Let's Craftmine!"

[kindred pewter]

Last Judge pops out of nowhere
"LAST JUDGE!"

[floral delta]

Wait

I think I'm smart guys

[carmine island]

Religion

[smoky nebula]

Are we playing the April fools update, craftmine

[kindred pewter]

you're not

[serene chasm]

Don't do Religion, kids

[kindred pewter]

what if my religion is non-existent

[mortal bluff]

“Big ol red ones!!” 🐜🐜🐜

[smoky nebula]

My religion is worm
In death the worms shall consume our flesh and return us to the dirt

[floral delta]

My religion is the Yi religion

[south vigil]

wait hold on is that spikey thing on the floor part of the enemy’s sprite or the world cause that looks uhhhhhh

[serene chasm]

All hail the worms! May they feast upon our flesh!

[mortal bluff]

Thrown by flying guy off screen… I hope

[smoky nebula]

Hopefully worms in silksong
