this motherfucker is losing to an ant

[hoary laurel]

in the game sans has a trans eye and the fandom is home of phobic /j

[high sigil]

theyre all bug sized

[latent knoll]

What is she gonna do?

[high sigil]

i stomp on every hollow knight character

[wind compass]

I open up chat and see someone yelling at Lace and Sans transitioning
what a time to be alive

[scarlet saffron]

impale you with six pins the size of your arm probably

[elfin oasis]

Groal, the true source of the Abyss

[hoary laurel]

I threw my phone again
fucks sake

[native canyon]

my favorite part of silksong is when lace revealed she helped sans undertale transition

[terse stone]

do you want to “beat” the ant lady in a different way that isn’t in a fight perhaps

[round void]

https://tenor.com/view/tahm-kench-league-of-legends-chibiin-3d-gif-26083838

[elfin oasis]

Hate when that happens

[high sigil]

humans are higher beings compared to bugs

[latent knoll]

The bins arent even that big😭

[wind compass]

Hornet was captured to do the surgury

[hoary laurel]

no like im half asleep and I think im playing basketball and my phone gets launched across the room

[scarlet saffron]

ok but your DEFINITELY not beating father of the flame ur being sizzled

[terse stone]

it’s like the game never came out how are y’all still insane

[tight viper]

Fun Fact: If you rearrange Lace, it spells Sans. This is a reference to how Lace is secretly Sans

[latent knoll]

I will cherish her while she sings for till the end of time (yes)

[native canyon]

https://youtu.be/8SmNwEeP4iM

[scarlet saffron]

proof that silksong is woke

[wind compass]

that makes so much more sense

[terse stone]

Cherish her yes ❤️ (do not the ant)

[mystic kernel]

Is groal the great the roaring knight

[native canyon]

listen if I learned one thing from my time in the utdr community it's that the brainrot never goes away it merely evolves into something greater

[scarlet saffron]

yes i was there

[flat remnant]

boss ranking now that i've finished the game

[hoary laurel]

and did you know veil is literally evil backwards and you should not hit metal 17 times

[elfin oasis]

I mean now that you mention it...

[scarlet saffron]

trobbio in d invalid now

[wind compass]

Ight time to go and beat up Trobbio 2: Electric Boogaloo
wish me luck

[weak canyon]

Lace 2 does double damage silently is discrimination against the stupid (me)

[mystic kernel]

Omg

[terse stone]

This is trobbio slander

[limber igloo]

so im at the last judge, i need a closer bench tho, im always super beat up by the time im there

[rare acorn]

Wait is ||Trobbio|| a moth of sorts..

[native canyon]

do I hear an excuse to post my boss tier list

[mystic kernel]

I will the ant, no one can stop me

[cyan sage]

I have great crestcism against wanderer and reaper mains

[flat remnant]

funny guy, silly guy, his fight sucks i don't like it

[native canyon]

the more people question my khann placement the stronger I get

[elfin oasis]

Khann you get out of the room for a sec

[scarlet saffron]

voltwyrm genuinely could have been such a good boss if it had a bigger arena and or hsrder attack patterns

[terse stone]

Oh absolutely yes, I am also an active member of that fandom, it took like a month after ch 3 and 4 came out for them to go insane again

[latent knoll]

I need to make a new list since i beat the game thrice

[native canyon]

voltvyrm is a zelda boss

[hoary laurel]

also why do people find savage beastfly so hard (ive beaten both)

[native canyon]

I blame the mike fight

[elfin oasis]

That is generous

[mystic kernel]

Groal above D, automatically valid

[terse stone]

stupid fucking minions

[rare acorn]

I hate those tar spitters

[hoary laurel]

they die in like three hits

[mystic kernel]

Ikr

[scarlet saffron]

groal is just a babeh why do u guyd hate him

[rare acorn]

Oh wait that sounds bad 💔

[native canyon]

why didn't they add mike to silksong 0/10 game honestly

[mystic kernel]

Groal is my bebeh

[latent knoll]

Yeah but you have the worry about the massive fucking freight train coming towards you

[scarlet saffron]

timezones

[rare acorn]

Well yeah it’s hard when they keep flying away and this overgrown mask shard is ramming into you 💔

[elfin oasis]

Savage Beastfly 2 minions hit different when he simultaneously decide to remove 60% of the arena tbf

[pastel rivet]

Idk it really wasnt that bad, it took my like 5 attempts for the first one and maybe 7 for the second one

[terse stone]

doesn’t matter if you can’t hit them because you’re too focused on dodging the massive thing charging at you

[hoary laurel]

not really? you can avoid them mostly by jumping

[hoary laurel]

I think wings definitely make it easier

[native canyon]

hey speaking of savage beastfly can we talk about how good incisive battle is
https://youtu.be/iqSBa35FOPI

[glacial kelp]

the spiky ball im guessing

[vestal spruce]

savage beastfly doo doo

[rare acorn]

Their projectiles stick on a floor/wall and explode upon contact, it was hard for me to avoid and felt so good to beat Savage Bee fly

[pastel rivet]

The boss i died to most was moorwing actually, toughest boss fr

[mystic kernel]

Groal = Trobbio???

[glacial kelp]

id like it more if i didnt lose my steel soul to it

[elfin oasis]

On my Steel Soul run I found out that Sharpdart is probably the best thing in the world against Beastfly 2 personally. It tore through the adds risk free just fine.

[hoary laurel]

idk never really saw the difficulty in it

[rare acorn]

I hate how wiki shows the wrong characters 🥹

[native canyon]

sharpdart is the second weakest silk skill this means everything can shred through them

[autumn widget]

This boss was horrible not because Skrill issue but the fight was too flashy my mobile almost died 😭😭

[normal token]

Finally got all achievements!

[cyan sage]

having to dodge 4 enemies, atleast like 2 will do 2 masks of damage in phase 1 of beastfly while still trying to kill them with everyone else on your way

[rare acorn]

Well I’m not saying it’s hard for everyone, I’m just saying it’s hard for me and I can see why people would say it’s hard.

[mystic kernel]

Groal = Trobbio

Trobbio = Peak

Groal = Peak??????

[glacial kelp]

mobile players always crazy

[mystic kernel]

Groalbbio is the best boss in silksong

[terse stone]

okay, so they’re grimms child who was cast out for being too gay, and also Groal the Great

[elfin oasis]

The importance is the fact that you're invulnerable while you do it. Thread Storm tears trough them as well but it also immobolizes you for ~ 3 seconds while Beastfly is charging at you.

[pastel rivet]

How do you guys do this i just beat act 2 TwT

[rare acorn]

Mobile?

[native canyon]

this reminded me to stop procrastinating speed completion

[autumn widget]

It's optimization for mobile

[silk totem]

Theres a mobile fan port?

[latent knoll]

They are placed in the most INCONVENIENT spots i swear

[autumn widget]

Yes sadly no pc 😞 but I bought the game to support anyway

[hoary laurel]

WHERE did you get 4 enemies from
beastfly summons 1 fly besides like twice in the fight where it summoned two for me, and they died in like 2 seconds before the beastfly could attack again

[silk totem]

Oh wtf there's an OFFICIAL mobile port?

[rare acorn]

OHH OK
I thought you were pirating for a sec 😭

[terse stone]

Grimm is homophobia 💔

[native canyon]

https://youtu.be/FTicXQYw2ts

[glacial kelp]

did you lose it or smthn no way you bought allat with no pc

[autumn widget]

There were good discounts

[rare acorn]

Y’all what is with people and calling random bugs homophobic, racist and every other thing in the dictionary 😭

[pastel rivet]

Moorwing is the hardest boss idc what anyone says

[terse stone]

why the fuck is this theme so good

[elfin oasis]

Pogo goes brrrrrrr

[rare acorn]

This

[glacial kelp]

hornet is all of the above

[pastel rivet]

Moorwing is homophobic

[slim thorn]

Thread storm is so good for summons as long as you know how to find the right moment

[terse stone]

no everyone else is fine, GMS and Grimm are the only homophobic ones

[autumn widget]

I actually play do cloud gaming by GeForce now and GeForce now needs game license to play

[silk totem]

Moorwing is like a circus lion, poor guy

[candid gyro]

beating LL with every crest, 2/7: Architect.
They did not even try to balance this crest lmao, made LL feel like Moorwing

[pastel rivet]

Id always get hit when trying to get up to pogo, it might be easier with reaper crest

[elfin oasis]

Hornet literally calls for the extermination of an entire race of bugs because she doesn't like them

[hoary laurel]

I didnt have to fight them because they just didnt spawn after a while
I deadass found it harder than beastfly and I didnt even beat the boss

[native canyon]

honestly I don't know which moment hit harder for me, entering the choral chambers when they get revived by the haunting for the first time or entering the city of tears for the first time

[rare acorn]

HOW is Grimm homophobic..

[noble nacelle]

icl moorwing is harder than ll for me 😭

[glacial kelp]

this build is mega ass but yeah arch is busted

[terse stone]

Trobbio 💔

[hoary laurel]

cast out his gay son (trobbio)

[rare acorn]

WHAT
I assume the flies..?

[cyan sage]

Wth it can easily spawn 3 and we also have the big great beastfly

[mystic kernel]

The flies are sexists

[silk totem]

Daugher i saw you kissing Hornet i am very homophobic

[native canyon]

grimm is a homophobic homosexual

[elfin oasis]

It's a little bit unreliable but Hunter can usually get up on him if you aim for it after he charges past you

[rare acorn]

Wait Trobbio is genuinely Grimm’s son?

[deft summit]

112% is real?

[slim thorn]

I would call gms more of homo and hetero phobic

[hoary laurel]

never happened for me
I might have just beat the shit outta him too fast idk

[mossy sage]

My gpu suddenly died a few days ago overnight so ts is what im gonna be dealing with brah i swear

[mystic kernel]

no

-# uneducated silksong player here 🥹

[terse stone]

No actually we’re just silkposting

[elfin oasis]

Eyupp. The Broodmother log entry is literally her saying that maybe they will disappear now that she killed the mother birthing them

[silk totem]

Trobbio is just some guy

[short dew]

what is the requirement for the hidden hunter quest

[glacial kelp]

yes since arch is carrying

[mystic kernel]

Some thespian

[native canyon]

wonder how she felt upon seeing the broodling

[pastel rivet]

I literally beat savage beastfly in class on my laptop it really wasnt too bad, you just gotta be non aggressive, punishing it when it attacks you

[silk totem]

A very durable guy

[mystic kernel]

A very reliable guy

[hoary laurel]

exactly you just pogo off it or attack up when it flies above you

[silk totem]

Either that or Hornet decided to not to the killing blow on Trobbio twice

[pastel rivet]

Use tools to quickly kill any minions as well

[glacial kelp]

all people saying this havent done 5 mask beastfly 2 on steel soul

[hoary laurel]

I didnt use tools in the fight surprisingly

[vestal spruce]

beastfly just unfun

[native canyon]

wdym, trobbio dies at the end of his fight you see him fall on the ground and die

[silk totem]

Suuure

[native canyon]

tormented trobbio doesn't exist don't mention him

[knotty shell]

he got better

[terse stone]

right, but how is this relevant

[native canyon]

also don't mention him running away when you reenter the room immediately after his first fight

[pastel rivet]

I didnt for savage beast either, i didnt start actually utilizing tools till later in the game, probably wouldve made it easier though

[elfin oasis]

Talk to or defeat Karmelita.

[glacial kelp]

pretty sure i did it before karmy icl

[mystic kernel]

Get in the robot shinji

[terse stone]

no wonder he was cast out, he can’t even pretend to die right 💔

[mystic kernel]

Get in the FUCKING robot

[elfin oasis]

I looked it up because he was required for 100% steel soul but I was contemplating doing Clovers instead of Karmelita, but apparently it's enough to go meet her

[native canyon]

too dramatic

[hoary laurel]

I threw my phone again fuck

[native canyon]

who's this mike guy just posting random anime memes

[tall rain]

Hornet doesn't own a phone

[mystic kernel]

Is anybody else having framerate problems with Silksong? To clarify, I have a 144hz monitor and regularly run 144fps on it with recommended requirements. Today, I would start losing frames and have constant stuttering (including audio) when playing the game for over 10 minutes. I play on Xbox for Windows and have verified the files several times, checked my pc for updates, restarted even. This doesnt happen with my other games.

you’re right, why should we care about any of the characters or do anything with them, it’s just a silly bug game where you kill bosses

[sly scaffold]

yeah but you gotta go through ||bilewater||

[worldly umbra]

i just finished watching that one silksong lore video holy crap i feel so bad for lace

[vital raft]

Devs always say that but they clearly expect the players to have played hk. This is very evident with the level of platforming and difficulty early which is essentially like end game hk

[native canyon]

it's a facade, she wants to be recognized by grand mother silk so she plays the role that was given to her

[hoary laurel]

yep just a difficult metroidvania

read lace's dialogue and specifically her cradle fight needolin dialogue you will see what the deal with her is there

its weird, most of the time is just weird. also shipping community it's pretty freaky sometimes. if im not wrong some dud threatened the author of mha bcs bakudeku wasn't a thing

Literally😭

[mystic kernel]

Who wants a muckmaggot, I have a few

[hoary laurel]

mikaeli from hitting metal 17 times

[elfin oasis]

Well they have to hit the right mix since they know plenty of people will come from HK as well and have certain expectations. But I think their pivot towards a more acrobatic combat style did a good job of making something familiar but different.

[mystic kernel]

I'm poor in them though because of taxes

[native canyon]

once you've used the needolin on lace in the cradle you'll never stop wanting to beat grand mother silk to death with your bare hands

[pastel rivet]

It probably didnt help i wasnt using tools at that point

[tranquil wigeon]

Yeah it just doesn't make sense, they intend it to be the first hk game you can play but it clearly recommends that you check out the first game to play it.

[hollow abyss]

or maybe she is just a child

[primal horizon]

but they are nobodies

I BEAT LL OMG YSESEYSEYSYEYSESE

[cyan sage]

Enemies to lovers has to be a type of cancer

[final fern]

I’d say hk reminds me of ds1 more than silksong, silksong feels a lot more like bloodborne and ds3 imo

[native canyon]

lace and hornet are thematic foils of each other, of course they'd be shipped

[sly scaffold]

i just beat shit to death with funky nail

[terse stone]

Rivals to lovers, and they have opposite personalities

[tall rain]

And the White Flower ending is canon now. Team cherry can't gaslight the community and say all endings are canon no more

[primal horizon]

If elon musk threatened the creator of whatever you said then that would be a bigger thing

[mystic kernel]

Okay yeah no you a little slow

[dull cape]

not a funny joke

It should be

Would have loved to refight a stronger 4th Chorus. Perhaps one moving with void would be sick

[hoary laurel]

I did it

[hollow abyss]

nah, hear me out. lace isn't fluffy. so she doesn't make hornet type. rest my case

[hollow abyss]

but she doesn't got that fur !!!

[mystic kernel]

She is cute though

[hollow abyss]

she isn't

[latent knoll]

Sticky

Very sticky

[cyan sage]

I wanted to express an opinion 😔✊

[native canyon]

the idea of hornet helping lace maintain her form with her silk after grand mother silk dies is peak lacenet

[final mirage]

this is the most true statement I’ve seen. A refight that has a version puppeted by silk and/or void would be genuinely peak

[mystic kernel]

Cute is mainly subjective, I think groal is pretty cute

[latent knoll]

BECAUSE SHES MADE OUT OF SILK!!!💀 💀 💀 💀

[hollow abyss]

i agree

[cyan sage]

What??,😭

[primal horizon]

LMAO
IMAGINE SOMEONE SAYING THAT IRL 😭

[hoary laurel]

wait question how do the enemies get silk
because when you hurt an enemy you get silk

[brittle elbow]

prolly just give lace 1 of those 3 silk hearts hornet has

[tall rain]

Reported

[mystic kernel]

Bilewater is my favorite area

[tranquil wigeon]

I mean Silksong has the swamp area no one likes, the big empty golden city, you fight a double battle in the said big golden city that relatively well liked

[final mirage]

Factually incorrect. Close to the worst boss jsut because of the location and runback

ITAHU!

[mystic kernel]

Hey it's me great the groal

[pastel rivet]

Guys be honest do i have to do the fucking courier quests to reach act 3 cause this shit sucks

[elfin oasis]

I won't deny that cuteness can be subjective but Lace doesn't even have a face and most of her dialogue is her being scornful, I dunno what about her is cute other than someone's headcanon fantasy

[daring flax]

groal is awesome

[primal horizon]

1saac seems to be back on board with the whole shipping thing

[latent knoll]

SILK IS STICKY I DIDNT MEAN THAT KIND😭

[native canyon]

lace is cute

[sly timber]

wait does completing the true ending not ||get rid of the void||???

[native canyon]

she's cute in the same way hornet is cute, they're perfect for each other

[mystic kernel]

It's the mainly white palette with her design, big head etc

[median junco]

this game is unplayable i have found so many damn bugs

[visual trail]

FINALLY

[tall rain]

What's the better game overall? Hollow Knight or Silksong?

[sly scaffold]

act 2 and (technically 3) spoilers: ||another pale being exists above the citadel that produces silk and haunts pharloom||

[mystic kernel]

Thank you friend :)

[hollow abyss]

not really. just joking. most of the shipping i support is already explicited stuff, like undyne and alphis

[upper osprey]

guys is the needle from silksong a one handed weapon or a two handed weapon

[elfin oasis]

Ah yeah, I guess I can see the shape as being cutesy. I just don't see the general appeal in her personality I guess.

[primal horizon]

what happened to people no longer liking foil duos. Wtf man.

[sly scaffold]

my god i love hk but silksong is so much better

[final mirage]

There is no “after the ending” unless it’s to get to act 3

[cyan sage]

God forbid someone has kindness and empathy

[hoary laurel]

people find tenna cute and in some of his sprites he only has a nose without a face so anything is possible

[sly timber]

aw man i thought i would be free of all the ||void|| enemies

[mystic kernel]

Like I said, cuteness is subjective

[native canyon]

the death of literacy

[pastel rivet]

Silksong is definitely an improvement, hollow knight is still an amazing game

[final fern]

Those are def some similarities, but story and gameplay elements feel way more bloodborne-esque since it’s so fast paced and pharloom being way more evil than hallownest just like yharnam and lordran

[native canyon]

what

[final mirage]

Yeah I wish it were like that too. Some void enemies anger me

[tall rain]

I think Hollow Knight has better boss battles that don't feel as unfair as silksong has at times

[mystic kernel]

Bilewater = Blighttown

Both are green with poison swamp + hot bosses

[final fern]

Yeah I think hk is an 8/10 but Silksong is easy 10
One of my favorite games I’ve played

[terse stone]

yeah wtf happened 😭

Like it’s okay not to ship it but there are good reasons WHY people ship it

[coarse leaf]

Groal haters realizing that he's the great

[west flint]

cherry team adds fire to the fuel
first we got shakra
then we got tentacles
then we got naked hornet
and now we have racism

[hollow abyss]

i like the combat of hk more tbh. mostly bcs silksong got too many projectiles

[native canyon]

if hk is a 10/10 then silksong is an 11/10 imo

[mystic kernel]

Exactly, this is why you're cool

[tall rain]

Hornet is a bug

[hoary laurel]

what the fuck is team cherry doing

[primal horizon]

the community is divided over one ship (that NOBODY complained about 5 years ago)

[west flint]

oh yeah sure.. ill love a boss that wants to swallow me whole.

[final fern]

Blighttown way worse than bilewater tho

[coarse leaf]

Buddy he has the great in his name

[west flint]

"ohh hornet is a bug" my huge chef boss gyat

[pastel rivet]

Guys are the courier wuests required to reach act 3

[tall rain]

Id give HK a 10/10 and silksong a 9/10 atm

[elfin oasis]

I dunno who that is but I guess it is a fleet management software. I guess someone might find that cute.

[west flint]

so you want him to swallow you whole?

[hollow abyss]

which ship happened 5 years ago besides sheo and the nail guy?

[pulsar silo]

I don’t engage in shipping so I get to enjoy cute fanart and not think too hard about it

[mystic kernel]

My last name is "the great"

[native canyon]

it's because people read lace's age at face value without any critical thinking

[pastel rivet]

Tenna deltarune

[noble nacelle]

no but he is THE GREAT

[brittle elbow]

i just woke up lol rip i died once to the gay robots

[hoary laurel]

[pastel rivet]

Awesome i did not want to do these thanks

[west flint]

the great my booty cheeks

Yeah man i saw his birth certificate he's groal last name the great

[primal horizon]

1saac when did you first get into the hollow knight fandom

[final mirage]

We love the Fleet Management Software called Tenna

[north cipher]

had to do the silksong shuffle to put some respect on my goat

[native canyon]

completely ignoring the fact that caretaker doesn't really know lace, as well as the fact that he literally says she's older than most bugs in the citadel

[hollow abyss]

not really, it just feels weird. they seem more like brothers than lovers tbf

[mossy sage]

Well, liberal… allow me to inform you that if you’re GOOD, like ME, maybe it won’t feel as “unfair”.

[mystic kernel]

I have no middle name :(

[primal horizon]

Who

[native canyon]

reading them as related is also wrong

[elfin oasis]

Ah yeah, never played Deltarune but fair enough.

[crystal ledge]

did i just- crit with the fucking silk soar-

[final fern]

Isn’t lace technically hornet’s aunt

[hollow abyss]

into the game? 5 years ago, into the server? this year after i beated the game within 10 days of launch

[sly timber]

thats honestly the only bad thing silksong has imo

[pastel rivet]

I dont really like shipping characters unless its proved canon

[silk totem]

When u get out of earlygame hell hornet was some really cool moves

[native canyon]

the weavers aren't made by grand mother silk

[hollow abyss]

reading them as lovers is also wrong

[native canyon]

so no, they are not related

[hollow abyss]

same

Why is this spoiler tagged 😭

[primal horizon]

Did not need to read a whole backstory but okay 😭

[terse stone]

there’s a whole plot point about how the weavers aren’t Silk’s daughters

[final fern]

Thought the first sinner cutscene was there to show that the silk created the weavers

[knotty shell]

GMS uplifted the weavers and made Lace
Hornet is a direct descendant of the Weavers
even if they aren’t technically related they share an ancestor

[native canyon]

there's stuff not touched on and then there's actually objectively wrong stuff

[hollow abyss]

the painter and the guy that upgrades ur nail in hk

[sterile plank]

Not

[native canyon]

it shows the opposite

[hollow abyss]

still is wrong

[terse stone]

they aren’t related though

[crude barn]

venting hard here

[knotty shell]

yeah they gay

[primal horizon]

yah there’s no way you’re serious

[final fern]

What does it show?

[mystic kernel]

They gay as hell broski

[pastel rivet]

Guys zote is gay for himself

[west flint]

first sinner
second femboy
thrid twink
fourth doomed yaoi
last naked hornet

[silk totem]

It mutated random spiders and then the weavers were told they were some sort of divine creation made from zero as a lie

[terse stone]

Found GMS’s discord account

[native canyon]

how can people misread this game this badly

[balmy herald]

Is Last Judge necessary for true ending?

[hollow abyss]

thought that was the only ship that ever happened in hk. other than them i can't remember anyone that could possibly even have that kind of treatment

[barren steppe]

New level of autism where I draw my favorite silksong critters

[nocturne grail]

Real question, are those pants or is she genuinely built like that

[hollow abyss]

Who is GMS's?

[final fern]

??? Then inform me tf? Just being rude for no reason

[native canyon]

yes

[west flint]

draw a final boss for a 3rd hk game

[elfin oasis]

It shows that they were normal bugs but that she transformed them into Weavers, it's more of a pedantic point really. But strictly speaking they existed before Silk made contact with them and as such she didn't make them.

[slim quest]

grand mother silk

okay you might wanna take a few steps backs and just look at what everyone is saying and what you’re saying, because you don’t understand me, and I don’t understand you

I dont think many bugs wear clothes
besides cloaks maybe or those bags that go over the citadel bug heads idk

Blue groal in my favorite area: bluewater

Guys why didn’t I go to ||act 3||??

[elfin oasis]

How long did it take you to notice this

[brittle elbow]

there's no music at this point 🙁 and his attacks are slower

[native canyon]

the weavers were not made by grand mother silk, they were ascended from pre-existing creatures (pharlids). calling them her children is like saying the denizens of hallownest are the pale king's children, it's just wrong

[mystic kernel]

I only had black and blue in pen colors

I’m at the end of act 3

[final fern]

I mean yeah I get that spiders existed before then and that lace is a pure silk being but weavers still only exist because gms created them right? Without her the weavers would just be normal spiders right

[candid gyro]

killing LL with every crest, 3/7: witch.
definitely the hardest fight so far (shaman and architect are op af). Took several attempts just to learn the exact spacing on the only attack you can reliably heal off of

you were talking about a ship 5 years ago, i was talking abt a ship in the original hk that i think it happened 5 years ago and the only one i can remember

fuck you trobbio

I CAN'T READ I'M A HOLLOW KNIGHT FAN

just say grandmother silk, didn't know ppl would simplify her name

[final fern]

Yeah ok ig I just got the terminology wrong then

[native canyon]

THAT'S ALL OF YOU HOW THE FUCK DO YOU SEE FIRST SINNER'S CUTSCENE AND COME AWAY THINKING THE WEAVERS ARE HER DAUGHTERS

[knotty shell]

there is music it’s just really faint… 💔

[terse stone]

The citizens of hollownest are not the pale kings children, so it would not be the case here either, like Silk he granted them higher levels of thought

[brittle elbow]

wait it's green prince and trobbio?

[tight ember]

Tbh the name is too long to write everytime

[tranquil wigeon]

The silk went straight to her thighs

[final fern]

This actually makes sense, thank you for being a normal person lol

[gaunt yarrow]

lf multibinder

[elfin oasis]

The reason I say its pedantic is because she still saw them as her daughters, or at least told them as much from what I remember. It's just a matter of perspective really. They were 'chosen' to be her daughters.

[sage egret]

I did I’m act 2 still

[hoary laurel]

I might just go back to toby for my name
I still need a pfp tho

[gaunt yarrow]

did you close the game without letting the credits roll bruh

[tropic apex]

does drapelords appear on act 3?

[hollow abyss]

weavers literally were more developed by grandmother silk so i think i get where the realation thing comes from. it's not that absurd

[junior iris]

Built like Kim kardashian 😭🙏

[pulsar silo]

you can explain it normally

[sage egret]

Yea😭

[gaunt yarrow]

genius over here

[final fern]

I read the name of gms to be kinda a double entendre, as she is seen as the ruler of pharloom and also “grand mother” silk as she would be spiritually hornets grandmother but bug game has weird lore ig

[alpine latch]

they're called her children or something right? i really forgot, but it is kinda obvious that they were given something by gms so they became the weavers

[candid gyro]

started out with it, took it off because i would rather have the occasional extra opening than that little bit more damage

[knotty shell]

they aren’t divine they’re just bugs like any other

Silksong has a lot of lore hidden away in the map there’s no reason to be so aggressive if people don’t agree in the interpretation of the lore it hasn’t even been a month.

[native canyon]

hollow knight fans vs reading comprehension and critical thinking who wins (there's a right answer here)

[elfin oasis]

My understanding is that she is the primal source of Silk, strictly speaking even Hornet's own family is descended from her, but it is a bit foggy yeah.

[hoary laurel]

im putting all the pfp suggestions on the wheel

this is about people reading the weavers as gms' daughters, this is not something up to interpretation there is actual evidence in the game

He never despawns from there so I'm hoping if we get post game content he's fine

[hollow abyss]

im not even that old, im turning 19 next year

[hoary laurel]

what is box shades on abt rn

i think Radi is just straight up a higher being though so she doesn’t count

is it possible to kill mooshka?

these fleagames are so fucking stupid

OHHHHH NOW I GET WHAT YOU MEAN

it feels like every single person here is wrong just in different percentages

Either way, Hornet does not see Silk as a grandmother, and Lace and Hornet do not have a family bond

Game is less than a month old lore interpretations will vary. Even after years pass people will still disagree to an extent.

[hollow abyss]

they are controlled by silk, more like puppets. they aren't imbued with it. they cannot store silk/use it

Poshanka!

[frosty light]

THE RETURN

[worldly marlin]

this rosary grind is so good (those who know )

[tall rain]

❌

[tight ember]

Idk if it's just me or what but i kinda think that kratt is a bee who's disguising himself as a flea, because, idk if it's an armor or what but vor and the flea father have the same pattern in their body, unlike kratt who have a bee like pattern, maybe it's just a shirt tho

[tall rain]

6 7

[hoary laurel]

could've taken ONE more rosary

[elfin oasis]

It's speculation about the lore of a game that doesn't freely give it with paragraphs of text, without a dev confirming it literally anything is just theories that have varied levels of community acceptance tbf

[native canyon]

there are enemies that use silk in the citadel

[silk totem]

Think Hornet would realize considering she lived with bees for a while

[frosty light]

[native canyon]

the grand reeds are notable examples

[hollow abyss]

they are literally a big pile of silk, if u destroy the silk connection they never appear again

[tight ember]

True

[silk totem]

And any bee would probably know hornet and vespa were buddies so there'd be respect

[native canyon]

the grand reeds seem pretty normal

[junior iris]

https://tenor.com/view/dayanemello-vespa-gif-22401782

[terse stone]

they can only be interpreted as related because Silk CLAIMED them as her daughters, but Hornet has no relationship with Silk and thus can only be related on a technicality

[pulsar silo]

My interpretation is that any bug can have silk stored in their shell (naturally and not) but only weavers are able to produce silk directly from their shell

[visual hollow]

Silksong is easy? I was scared going into it, but its easu

[ocean bridge]

big silk is lying to you!

[obtuse horizon]

how do you get here

[knotty shell]

how, ah, far are you into the game

[worldly marlin]

is there a crest that replenishes your silk without needing to go on a bench?

The pattern in the back reminds me of some beautiful moon😺

[chilly lodge]

Okay what is with the cilantro text. What does this mean??

[ocean bridge]

hit enemies to restore silk

[hoary laurel]

||light fact about the game that has no reason to be spoiler tagged|| ||unprovoked colossal universe shattering spoiler that kills people on sight||

i swear kratt's the one that deserves to get killed

[dry star]

Team cherry don't make shadows look weird 😔 thought she was blushing bro

[coarse leaf]

Getting ragebaited by Seth flea juggle score

[final fern]

Eyes so small the fur covers

[junior iris]

You have to complete the “way of the flea” quest, which gives you the mooshka crest, then you fight lost mooshka and void Kratt

[elfin oasis]

The take-away I think was that she ascended them to sustain her through song, or what the wiki refers to as 'her light' but that's a bit too vague for me to tell what they are referring to.

[hoary laurel]

I changed back to toby

[coarse leaf]

Dude don't spoil the dlc

[tawdry sierra]

Do fleas grow eyes!!

[hollow abyss]

tbf, i didn't enjoy seth bossfight that much

[junior iris]

Mb

[elfin oasis]

They eventually used song to seal her away and built the Citadel as a structure to maintain that seal by tailoring it around the song how-ever

[dry star]

They always had em

[terse stone]

accidental Shawkra whoops

[coarse leaf]

Who has went through worse? Kyle Crane or Hornet? Kyle was tortured for 13 years.

[native canyon]

I believe "her light" is just her power in general, considering her silk is associated with light in the 2 prominent weaver memories

[tight ember]

Loadout doesn't have anything to do with flea dodge since it's about dodging not upper slashing like flea juggle
Yes sometimes you'll pogo but even this doesn't have anything to do with your loadout if you're comfortable with your crest

[knotty shell]

hell yeah

[coarse leaf]

The real boss fight is his flea juggle score

[hollow abyss]

ya

[tawdry sierra]

Flea dodge is the worst

[silk totem]

So wtf was shakras' menthor doing anyways

[steep cloud]

after we cut pharloom free from the void, the void haas specific beef with putrified ducts and proceeds to eat everyone there?

[coarse leaf]

Dying Light story isn't amazing or anything, but Kyle Crane going through 13 years of torture is pretty much as bad as it gets.

[tight ember]

Instead of hating on seth i absolutely hate every flea for ruining my runs

[hoary laurel]

man I cant wait for pantheon of hell where you fight the classic silksong bosses such as
minos prime
v1
v2

[silk totem]

Yea but why

[knotty shell]

average zoro sideplot

[silk totem]

True

[bold breach]

I did juggle last, I know dodge is just as random but at least dodge is kinda fun

[tawdry sierra]

She was sentenced to life in BILEWATER

[final fern]

W bilewater supremacy

[hollow abyss]

hot take but imo: combat in hk is better than ss combat, but movement in silksong is better

[coarse leaf]

Dodge and bounce is fun

[hoary laurel]

I hate the citadel

[coarse leaf]

Juggle is miserable

[junior iris]

No, you don’t free pharloom from the void, it’s a different thing

[tawdry sierra]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/586931790208434203/1422294323466207393/caption-2.gif

[bold breach]

Bounce is peak

[hollow abyss]

bilewater is a good area, the only problem with it is the cancer water

[hoary laurel]

I HATE bilewater

[elfin oasis]

Pantheon of Fleatopia where you have beat Seth's score in the three games while fending him off

[tame ginkgo]

what am i missingg

[tawdry sierra]

Why

[tight ember]

W bilewater travel method

[steep cloud]

oh ok so i thouht we do that, well then ill figure it out lol

[terse stone]

idk, I love the faster paced combat

[coarse leaf]

Do you guys think we will seen more of Hornet in the future?

[pulsar silo]

DLC is likely so yes

[coarse leaf]

I think she'd be awesome in an animated series.

[tight ember]

Did you ||bind eva||

[knotty shell]

takes you straight from the top of the area to the bottom

[dull cape]

the fact you rarely pogo explains why you believe it's the game's fault when you get hit. you gotta lock in and see all the fleas, i find taking an hour break helps

[tame ginkgo]

yes

[coarse leaf]

I was thinking maybe a future animated series focused on her.

Flea dodge haters forget about clawline

[bold breach]

There’s a story item you need for the last percent

[hollow abyss]

not having iframes really limited what they could do with attacks imo, most of the time ur just dodging a random projectile

[native canyon]

the fast pace and diversity of loadouts make this game so much more fun

[tame ginkgo]

is it the ||delicate flower?||

[elfin oasis]

ngl outside of Silksong's DLCs I dunno if we'll see more of HK in the future, might just swap tracks to a different project.

[steep cloud]

silksong but the savage beastfly chase you through the entire game (it can kill both you and the enemies)

[native canyon]

cross stitch

[coarse leaf]

Dual beastfly pantheon

[pulsar silo]

Oh you mean like multi media stuff. Idk about an animated series but maybe there can be a wanderer’s journal style thing for silksong that has some more hornet stuff

[pseudo wagon]

wish we got the snare setter back

[native canyon]

oh wait nvm misread lol

[knotty shell]

new speedrun category just dropped

[final fern]

Idk even that I like bc the entire area forced me to play much more cautiously than previous

[coarse leaf]

Did Team Cherry mention they were working on DLC for Silksong?

[hollow abyss]

i do like it, but the lack of iframe on dodges made it kinda limited

[final fern]

Actually really fun just going around while trying to explore everything

[hoary laurel]

Where's cornifer in all this

[pulsar silo]

In a ditch

[steep cloud]

at least groal is getting one shotted 😭

[native canyon]

anyways I think it's better that we don't have an i-frame dodge because the attacks that required shade cloak in hollow knight were so boring

[tight ember]

I never said it was the game fault for my losing, and there's no room for pogo when there's fleas coming at hornet from every direction, i rather use my harpoon

[native canyon]

basically just a wall of death every time

[knotty shell]

looking at you traitor lord

[elfin oasis]

Other people seem to know, I'm just guessing. But given how much content they made for HK after release I'd be surprised if they didn't have at least a few ideas for Silksong.

[tight ember]

Now cheese it to kill the gauntlets

[coarse leaf]

Should I get Ghost of Yotei or just go with Silksong?

[hoary laurel]

also I just found an insane silksong steam guide
theres always one

[native canyon]

SILKSONG IS A PERFECT GAME CAUSE IT HAS NOTHING LIKE TRAITOR MID

[hollow abyss]

it made me kinda sad bcs i couldn't punish as much as in hk and made me feel like some fights were taking just too long bcs in some point u gotta get away, its not like in hk were u can constantly be up close

[knotty shell]

hey that’s up to you

[coarse leaf]

I can't get Hades 2 because it's Switch and PC only.

[dreamy hamlet]

Damn hornet is straight 🔥

[knotty shell]

says who

[terse stone]

The fucking run back

[coarse leaf]

I think I should get Silksong because I do enjoy platformers

[dreamy hamlet]

Says me

[final fern]

I haven’t played yotei but Silksong is an easy 10 and it’d be hard as hell for yotei to beat it imo

[visual hollow]

idk like 6 hours

[steep cloud]

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-floppy-hornet-slap-nuu-gif-11086988873395759079

[leaden delta]

i lowk agree i think?

[native canyon]

traitor lord is the definition of "artificial difficulty" because they made him "harder" by just fucking upping his damage, his moves are still ass and he's slow as shit

[final fern]

Tho I bet both games are fun

[coarse leaf]

What do you think will get GOTY 2025?

[solar yarrow]

I swear they’re gonna make a Found Lace that’s like 10x harder than abs rad

[knotty shell]

don’t worry! it gets worse.

[leaden delta]

hk has low gear so it's better actually

[steep cloud]

if goty is an AAA game im crashing the fuck out

[pastel rivet]

Thank you team cherry for the fake bench in bilewater that put me into maggot water

[silk totem]

Hollow knight has the cooler multiple soul attacks

[hoary laurel]

wait what if i remove the head from headcanon and make my headcanons canon so now hornet deals 273 damage

[visual hollow]

alright then

[knotty shell]

says you?

[bold breach]

You’re wrong, if you complete the materium Shakra and Hornet kiss in the hot tub

[native canyon]

artificial difficulty is a bad criticism btw but the closest I can think of is the traitor lord buffs

[last sedge]

yeah, voltvrym lace 🗣️

[rustic gulch]

cant believe this Forum gaunlet is making me have to save scum lmao

[visual hollow]

im past the first judge so idk

[terse stone]

me when Shawkra

[worldly marlin]

k im completing it now

[elfin oasis]

Depends really on which franchise you have more experience with / like more. Silksong is a platformer, but a lot of people have also struggled with it. Personally SS is definitely a Game of the Decade contender for me.

[hoary laurel]

man the middle judge was so difficult

[quaint plinth]

Just finished 100% Act 2 🙏

[dreamy hamlet]

Yes

[native canyon]

every hornet ship is top tier I don't make the rules

[steep cloud]

time for act 3

[knotty shell]

you stupid

[dreamy hamlet]

Still got more chemistry then lace

[coarse leaf]

Ghost of Yotei, Silksong, and Hades 2 are runner-ups as of October, but Expedition 33.

[quaint plinth]

yup

[tight ember]

Still getting surprised when i see silksong and hk gb's
The devs really did a great job

[elfin oasis]

It's going to be tough for anything to beat E33 for GOTY this year.

[final fern]

I’m currently playing exp33 as I think 90% chance it’s gonna be a race between Silksong and exp33 but I think hades 2 has a chance for nomination and yotei idk bc I haven’t even played tsushima

Very likely to either be exp33 and Silksong but I still need to beat exp33 lol

[oak blade]

Hornet x moorewing

[hollow abyss]

i prefeer it over dodging random projectiles. sometimes in silksong it just felt like i was fighting primal aspids all over the place

[last sedge]

they deserve it tho

[digital oriole]

Hornet x kratt

[native canyon]

throwing a stray at lacenet for no reason

[bold breach]

I cannot believe that people actually speedrun this game with needle 2 cause I just did the 5 hour speedrun achievement and High Halls gauntlet was so horrible

[dreamy hamlet]

Na she fucked only men 🔥

[native canyon]

well... guess I'm wrong...

[terse stone]

Objection

[oak blade]

This is somehow worse than mine

[pulsar silo]

I’ve been well fed this year in terms of games

[steep cloud]

hornet nuu ship

[last sedge]

hornet x voltvyrm

[hoary laurel]

oh golly gosh

[dreamy hamlet]

Na it lowkey make no sense you can’t blame me

[final fern]

Friend of mine who played both and has been waiting on Silksong for years says he thinks exp33 so I’m expecting some good stuff from it lol

[native canyon]

I FORGOT ABOUT KRATT

[knotty shell]

you got a source for that information

[solar yarrow]

Hornet x Knight, Hornet x Pure Vessel, Hornet x Pale King, Hornet x Herrah are some extra examples that show that unfortunately not every Hornet ship is peak

[hollow abyss]

hornet x every flea in the game(they got the fur hornet is into)

[steep cloud]

hornet x kratt ship gg

[dreamy hamlet]

The hunter journal

[coarse leaf]

@elfin oasis @final fern

I recently finished Dying Light The Beast, Dying Light is pure brutality and it's fun, but nowhere near the level of Silksong or Yotei.

[knotty shell]

where

[native canyon]

people see others ship narrative foils and say it makes no sense

[rustic gulch]

hornet reminds me of Ciri

[coarse leaf]

Our only hope is GTA 6 for 2026 to give us something insane

[dreamy hamlet]

Raging conch fly journal entry

[hollow abyss]

hornet x all 30 fleas is better imo

[tight ember]

Witcher 3?

[elfin oasis]

If anything I just see it as a positive sign that so many good games came out this year, who wins the award doesn't matter as much to me as the fact that it's such a hard tell.

[slate forge]

Started ss and i already want to end it all with the ants section

[steep cloud]

i dont think expedtion 33 is an AAA game

[terse stone]

they’re thematic foils to each other,they’re rivals, you don’t have to ship it but it makes sense why people would ship them

[coarse leaf]

I don't think anything in 2026 is touching GTA 6

[knotty shell]

quote it

[hollow abyss]

lego batman 4

[tight ember]

Hunters march my beloved
Dw it'll get worse

[dreamy hamlet]

Bro please she got more chemistry with shakra bro lace barely got any scenes they should have added more

[coarse leaf]

In terms of influence and hype

[austere cloud]

MOORWING

[native canyon]

don't call me bro

[tawdry sierra]

Kratt pat

[final fern]

I mean it seems like most of the heavy hitters this year are indie too which is amazing. This has been the best year in so long, generational

Any of the frontrunners this year would destroy 2023 or 2024 goty contenders

[cloud basin]

Why the best protagonist in hollow knight?

[solar yarrow]

Don’t worry, that’s not even the worst area of the game

[dreamy hamlet]

“Don’t call me bro” 💔 🥀

[native canyon]

lace and hornet have a fun dynamic it's fine not to ship them but stop acting like it's weird to ship them

[rustic gulch]

asking not to get called bro is exactly how you get more people calling you bro

[hollow abyss]

hornet got more chemistry with sherma and the fleas than lace. LMAO

[slate forge]

It's not even the NPCs I'm struggling with I js can't get through the damn pogo section 💔💔this game is buns

[knotty shell]

kratt BLUDGEON TO DEATH WITH HAMMERS

[oak blade]

[final fern]

I’ve only played a few games this year,
Deltarune
Monster hunter wilds
Elden Ring nightreign
Silksong
And now exp33

But yeah Silksong the most fun lol

[silk totem]

How the fleas

[elfin oasis]

The thing that always confounds me with rival ships is that the entire fact that they're foils to each other makes their chemistry really bad. In any normal situation that would mean they're a terrible match for one another.

[terse stone]

do not ship Hornet with Sherma 💔 🥀

[dreamy hamlet]

To pair with another is a base instinct, and one that brings some bugs great joy. I once sought similar union, but of my own mates none could match my lifespan

[native canyon]

yeah I should assume everyone is an argumentative shithead that thinks misgendering is funny

[slim quest]

They should have named steel soul steel spool right?

Recently I got into movies, I saw Godzilla (1954) last night and it was nothing short of astounding.

right, but this is fiction, people love that enemies to lovers shit

[native canyon]

are we going back to shipping discourse

[rustic gulch]

maybe im on the internet too much but many people use it ambiguously at this point

Just save the fight for later in act 3 😁😁

[finite lava]

Does pausing the game stop the timer? or do you have to leave the game

[hollow abyss]

the knight

[steep cloud]

see not all hornet ships are goated

[final fern]

It’s been a while since I’ve seen a movie lol, you should watch whiplash I love it

[solar yarrow]

You mean Ass Jim?

[errant ice]

what do I even get out of this fight

[frosty light]

and who the hell are you? john silk? ...wait...

[terse stone]

wow she’s bisexual I didn’t know that ❤️

[native canyon]

I understand that, I'm not mad when I correct people I'm just informing them

[final fern]

Pause stops

[coarse leaf]

I LOVE Whiplash, modern classic

[digital oriole]

Ship hornet with lace's MOTHER instead

[elfin oasis]

Pausing and I think cutscenes pause the timer, going into your inventory does not.

But she swims with sherma in grand citadel bath tub?

See hornet x sherma confirmed

mother silk kinda bad tho

[tropic apex]

why some big variations of small enemies look so goofy
