sk-discussion

[icy crow]

Should I deliver the Rasher only when I have all other four items?

[gloomy hill]

Depends if you beat the first three you can skip directly to the fourth but other than that you have to restart from the beginning

[torn herald]

So she'll be.... unravelled

[cursive pagoda]

I could probably cook like lace

[lime lotus]

yes

[peak musk]

An they tank max 3/5 hits

[lime lotus]

then I knit her into a sweater😈😈😈😈

[tulip spire]

Who wants dream shield back lol

[cursive pagoda]

I did it like halfway cause I didn’t know where the fuck crustnut was

[tulip spire]

That shit SUCKED

[tight viper]

No, I just have a baseball bat, some duct tape, a handful of rusty nails, and some very throwable rocks

[peak musk]

Or broodnest that makes your silk skills into brood skills

[icy crow]

I don't wanna go to Karak in act two but if I'm forced to there's no other way

[solemn goblet]

NO POOR ZAZA

[cursive pagoda]

dreamsheild but it shoots projectiles instead

[lime lotus]

hornet giving birth to flys mid fight instead of silk skills

[icy crow]

And it's best for me to do it before act three since void enemies

[keen prism]

it’s just some easy platforming

[solemn goblet]

omg poor zaza

[unreal kite]

alright yeah i’m taking a break from silksong

[glacial kelp]

are silksong bosses geologists

[tight viper]

And also some sugar cubes or whatever bugs eat

[smoky heart]

Snared Silk.

[gloomy hill]

Do it clawlineless

[unreal kite]

i have to do three consecutive gauntlets without dying to unlock a single shortcut??
fuckass game sucks, i quit until i can think of any way to beat this

[tight viper]

I'll have to find out

[keen prism]

Already did

[weary gorge]

Just beat Shakra on steel soul lets goooo

[tulip spire]

Correct

[dense berry]

nameless town?

[gloomy hill]

Based

[obsidian swift]

??
coral tower

[torn herald]

Tbf a lot of shit that sucked in hk was wayyy better in sk
(Glowing womb into cogflys, carefree melody into dice, longnail into longclaw and etc)

[glacial kelp]

guy is playing the dlc

[dense berry]

oh. coral tower was easy bro.

[cursive pagoda]

don’t you like not die to shakra if you’re beaten

[gloomy hill]

Mostly bcs everything else also sucks now

[lofty shell]

use hunter crest fully evolved
its a DPS monster

[lime lotus]

if dice were a blue tool they would be so outclassed

[finite creek]

do they sell hivesteel on amazon

[glacial kelp]

mention anything ever and you'll get a guy saying it's easy

[keen prism]

still easy it’s just breaking walls and pogoing

[dense berry]

[torn herald]

Fair I suppose

[cursive pagoda]

high halls gauntlet was like 3 tries for me

[solemn goblet]

im crying zazas so sad

[mossy dust]

Tell him to go to act three

[gloomy hill]

I am talking specifically about the crustnut platforming

[weary gorge]

Idk I save and quit because I'm 18 hours deep lmao

[smoky heart]

Yes! Snared Silk ending.

[lofty shell]

grubsong was goated in hollow knight
druid's eyes suck

[tulip spire]

Coral tower I feel like is mostly a build check more than anything

[cursive pagoda]

couriers rasher 2nd try

[peak musk]

Winged brood instead of pale nails

[mossy dust]

Took me three tries nice man

[torn herald]

Dlc where we get to adopt zaza when

[glacial kelp]

do it dashless on the low%

[gloomy hill]

This is false

[tulip spire]

If you have a good build it’s easy as fuck

[keen prism]

isn’t I impossible???

[cursive pagoda]

then you have me with fucking father of the flame like 20th try

[gloomy hill]

No

[unreal kite]

i have a feeling that nathan never actually entered act 3 if he’s saying that 30 waves is easy

[keen prism]

how

[icy crow]

What I mean is I want to explore Karak only when I'm in act three

[weary gorge]

My kid walked up in my face mid fight and screamed I WANT JUICE

[gloomy hill]

Spike tunneling

[mossy dust]

Father of flame was rather fun

[lime lotus]

yea, giving birth to hornets and throwing them at the enemy instead of silk nails

[cursive pagoda]

5 masks with needle 1 and sting shard mainly

[keen prism]

Oh alright

[dense berry]

bro i beat lost lace 7 times

[mossy dust]

lol

[unreal kite]

uh huh

[keen prism]

dang

[glacial kelp]

pretty normal for the speedrun setup

[dense berry]

73%

[unreal kite]

uh huh

[torn herald]

Why tho, act 3 will just make it more annoying then anything and besides ||a single boss|| act 3 movement doesn't unlock anything there

[cursive pagoda]

This was first time doing it

[dense berry]

😭

[mossy dust]

My fren was yelling milk in call when I was dueling and I binded when I only lost one mask

[gloomy hill]

Depends, 30 waves of moss grubs is easy

[weary gorge]

Does she kill you if she wins?

[unreal kite]

CORAL TOWER

[cursive pagoda]

As someone who has a little cousin over for the season he is exactly like this

[mossy dust]

Yah

[gloomy hill]

Coral tower is free

[peak musk]

Sharp dart transforms hornet into a flukemunga

[glacial kelp]

wow how cool of you to do that + 100 aura is that what you want me to say

[unreal kite]

i’m going to have like 40 Watch your language. pings in a moment

[tulip spire]

I don’t think coral tower is trivial but I think it does say something I was able to just plug in a heal build and then do it in three tries while fall down drunk

[cursive pagoda]

I lost a really good run against karmelita to his screaming

[cursive pagoda]

yes I am a horrible narcissist

[unreal kite]

his

[torn herald]

Lowk idk why people compare hhg to coral tower because one of them is OBJECTIVELY harder (it's hhg)

[mossy dust]

Oh she doesn’t sorry

[cursive pagoda]

give me attention, more

[tight viper]

look back a few messages

[gloomy hill]

HHG is also free…

[mossy dust]

I thought she will but she doesn’t kill you

[cursive pagoda]

my cousin idiot

[unreal kite]

oh

[torn herald]

Ehh not really, it's pretty easy to get overwhelmed really fast

[tulip spire]

No. Pinstress does though because she sucks lol

[lime lotus]

hollow knight silksong if it was WOKE

[hollow void]

hot take: groal is like a b tier boss at worst

[gloomy hill]

If you’re bad at the game*

[plucky stag]

are there any explanations as to why the forum felt more frustrating than coral tower even though the latter is objectively more difficult

[glacial kelp]

you have more shit for tower usually is the difference

[cursive pagoda]

knight in a dress

[torn herald]

Tbf she did say it was a duel to the death

[mossy dust]

Imagine if you fight Shakras mentor

[lime lotus]

yes

[hollow void]

Because coral tower is seperated into parts

[plucky stag]

is it just a matter of expectations; i.e. you go into coral tower expecting something big, but at multiple times in hhg it seems like you've reached the end but it keeps going

[vapid elk]

the radiance so bad vro

[gloomy hill]

I think it’s easier to blame the game in Forum

[lime lotus]

she dead bruh😭😭😭

[cursive pagoda]

Cooked as hell

[torn herald]

Not everyone plays the game like it's their job lmao

[plucky stag]

so you at least get a break even though there are no checkpoints

[gloomy hill]

I don’t either smh

[mossy dust]

Ik but im saying if she alive

[torn herald]

Elegy of the deep trust

[hollow void]

Yes

[lime lotus]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-hollow-knight-silksong-silksong-hornet-snowgrave-gif-12098662318923565613

[tulip spire]

Forum is harder imo, enemies are harder to remove immediately with skills and the room is smaller

[weary gorge]

Since she's my baby luckily I like her more than she could ever annoy me so at least I have that lol

[plucky stag]

and by that point you're probably not as used to the difficulty or the game's mechanics too

[mossy dust]

I thought pinstress is gonna be fun like Shakra but she became gurr the outcast later which is sad

[hollow void]

I think that groal is like a b tier boss at worst

[gloomy hill]

Imo that’s also kind of the player’s fault…the game is supposed to be hard

[icy crow]

I feel like Sands of Karak is more tied to act three so I just don't wanna step there yet, but since there's a wish item there I might just do

[lime lotus]

Shakra is cutie patootie

[mossy dust]

Bile haven🤮🤮🤮🤮

[cursive pagoda]

I have destroyed him in every way imaginable (competition wise)

[unreal kite]

i was so convinced elder hu was shakra’s master until i completed trail’s end

[hollow void]

Gurr fight had more openings

[gloomy hill]

Shakra and fun in the same sentence. I disapprove

[cursive pagoda]

mentors mentor

[lime lotus]

their from the same tribe I think tho

[weary gorge]

I fixed the formatting I think

[mossy dust]

Ik but her fight was similar

[hollow void]

also I dislike the pinstress fight

[unreal kite]

why do you look like grimm

[torn herald]

Ehh not really act 3 sands of karak doesn't unlock too much, it's better to just go there in act 2 and finish the area before everything ||becomes voided||

[tulip spire]

Shakra actually has a higher than 20% chance of actually hitting you

[hidden tide]

What's everybody's favorite area in silskong

[mossy dust]

It was underwhelming and she kept floating like a growl and it was annoying

[gloomy hill]

Greymoor, then citadel

[torn herald]

Bilewater

[mossy dust]

I mean pinstresses fight is similar to growl

[lime lotus]

deep docks

[hollow void]

I believe that the citadel wiped out that pin order because the other factions at war with them kept making fun of the citadel for working with bloons tower defense units

[mossy dust]

Groal*

[hidden tide]

That was the last thing I expected

[lime lotus]

I like the asthetic

[unreal kite]

i have a feeling we’re gonna have seamstress and the third pinstress as pantheon and hall of gods fights

[cursive pagoda]

hear me out but bilewater bellhart

[mossy dust]

Ya they backstabbed they seamstresses the seamstresses trained the sentinels

[icy crow]

Does act three make the platforming harder overall?

[tulip spire]

Groal has a lot of ways to deal with him, pinstress has one which is waiting lol

[hidden tide]

Same, bellhart the best

[wet yoke]

Why do Courier Rashers sound terrifying to do?

[unreal kite]

bellhart is possibly the most welcoming place, so id say bellhart

[hollow void]

Sentinel fight was fun

[gloomy hill]

VFK but we gave him a new attack:

[plucky stag]

far fields; that one just felt the most mystical

[torn herald]

Platforming? Not really
Enemies and general exploration? Worse

[mossy dust]

I loved the small arena it made more fun

[lime lotus]

it’s not, you get like 10 hits and you don’t even got to clear the enemy’s it’s so easy

[cursive pagoda]

bellhart after bellhome feels really nice to be at

[tight viper]

Whiteward

[hidden tide]

Yeah, I also like the tunnels tho, the design of them makes me feel good inside

[icy crow]

Can I cleanse areas from void if I destroy Void Hearts though?

[plucky stag]

the soundtrack gives off exploration vibes, and that meshed well with the wanderlust you'd get from exploring and discovering the game for the first time

[cursive pagoda]

Especially with the spa and gramophone

[mossy dust]

Are you a psycho of smth that place was hell for me, lore wise

[plucky stag]

that magical once in a lifetime experience of playing silksong for the first time

[torn herald]

Ehhh yes but some enemies will still become voided

[visual schooner]

Can someone explain how this happened??

[hidden tide]

Holy sh- that... I wasn't expecting that

[tight viper]

Hell for you, maybe

[lime lotus]

whitewarding it oh I’m whitewarding it so good

[unreal kite]

Hey YOU! Let out your voice and tell everyone.. WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THE WORST AREA?! And be honest. Don’t just say bilewater.

[cursive pagoda]

tbf what it wants to achieve it does so VERY well

[tulip spire]

Looks like it happened due to a skill issue

[torn herald]

Hot take: whiteward is a hundred time less fun then bilewater

[mossy dust]

I mean turning people into flys via yarnaby procedure is kinda sadist ngl

[cursive pagoda]

PUTRIFIED DUCTS!!!

[hidden tide]

Uhhhhh, glitch

[lime lotus]

Purified ducts is worse than bilewater

[visual schooner]

I meant hornet getting cloned

[weary gorge]

Its just a phase

[tight viper]

For Pharloom eternal, a bug must never die

[hollow void]

White ward or putrified ducts

[torn herald]

Whitward

[mossy dust]

But I likes huntress that’s the only part I like

[plucky stag]

waiting being the strat ended up meshing well with how i approached silksong; that's probably why i liked her fight while most do not

[tulip spire]

Oh probably a state transition got fucked up

[unreal kite]

atleast some people know that bilewater is so easy compared to putrified ducts and whiteward

[cursive pagoda]

Also WREATH OF PURITY

[mossy dust]

It is sin to die for a bug in the citadel

[gloomy hill]

Bone Bottom

[plush coral]

Enraged conchfly is such a great fight

[mossy dust]

Didn’t get it heh

[plucky stag]

i dueled with a fellow survivor player

[hidden tide]

Prolly going to be... Whiteward or putrified ducts

[weary gorge]

What things can you miss by going to act 3 im about to start it

[lime lotus]

meh

[tight viper]

Indeed, that's why the Whiteward is needed

[cursive pagoda]

A bug who serves must never die

[unreal kite]

honestly true, i got stuck in bone bottom stage for way too long

[plucky stag]

duels with garmond and zaza as well as with shakra

[mossy dust]

Looking a nuu eat the conch fly was a great scene

[gloomy hill]

What stage

[lime lotus]

Honestly I liked whiteward asthetic I don’t think it was that bad

[weary gorge]

Any other things?

[torn herald]

I approached silksong playing really aggressively so pinstress was the WORST fight for me personally lel

[unreal kite]

like, the marrow

[tulip spire]

I don’t mind some waiting like with lace but pinstress you just kinda end up in situations where neither of you can hurt each other for like 10 seconds

[plush coral]

Honestly all fights are great, except the pinstress i fucking hate that fight

[cursive pagoda]

I didn’t duel them before I got all 3 melodies 🥀

[unreal kite]

i had to search up a youtube guide to find deep docks bro 🥀

[visual schooner]

b i l e w a t e r

[vast citrus]

pinstress fucking sucks

[lime lotus]

groal

[mossy dust]

Guys best area ost?

[cursive pagoda]

we deadass

[gloomy hill]

Oh uh I just spent like 2 mins in there and never went back

[unreal kite]

be honest

[tight viper]

Wormways, Ducts at least has Fleatopia

[hidden tide]

Wait can you not duel them afterwards?

[cursive pagoda]

just go right

[plush coral]

Nuu was eating?

[plucky stag]

when you put it that way it reminds me of the mayweather vs pacquiao fight in 2015

[visual schooner]

Ok bilewater without wreathe of purity

[unreal kite]

true

[torn herald]

Wormways isn't that bad wdym

[mossy dust]

Guys bets area music is?

[lime lotus]

Pinstress is a dirty rotten architect crest user I bet

[plush coral]

nuu was eating the conchfly?

[tight viper]

Wormways is dogshit

[gloomy hill]

Citadel

[cursive pagoda]

nope they just stay at songclave until act 3

[plucky stag]

so many boxing fans found it disappointing because there was barely any punching

[unreal kite]

be fucking honest..

[lime lotus]

cogwork core

[torn herald]

I mean even infected wormways isn't that bad

[mossy dust]

I mean he did try to lick hornet

[unreal kite]

Cogwork Core

[plush coral]

🫃

[torn herald]

Bilewater (for real this time) or cogwork core

[visual schooner]

Ok bilewater in steel soul

[tulip spire]

Yeah I just find pinstress’ fight kinda dull

[lime lotus]

nuu is baby unn

[tight viper]

The enemies are all annoying, Zango is the worst fight in the game, Zylotol is cool but he's temporary

[mossy dust]

That’s not confirmed

[unreal kite]

you can’t just add on shit to make your answer correct, no steel soul

[lime lotus]

it is in my heart

[tulip spire]

Wormways has cool music imo

[mossy dust]

And he was trying to lick hornet sooo he probably ate the conch fly

[plucky stag]

makes sense; i was more of a safe player who focused more on survival and consistency instead of aggressiveness

[unreal kite]

whats the best area music (except bilewater because i hate bilewater)

[visual schooner]

Ok bilewater on glass soul

[tight viper]

Whiteward

[lime lotus]

cogwork core

[cursive pagoda]

no, cogwork core is fire for the music

[tulip spire]

Choral chambers

[cursive pagoda]

nvm I thought it was worst area

[plucky stag]

high halls is one of my picks

[cursive pagoda]

best boss music

[tight viper]

Nyleth

[unreal kite]

Nameless town without cling grip or bilewater with no sprint

what is the WORST wish in yalls opinion

[tulip spire]

Silver bells

[visual schooner]

Cogwork core 100%

[mossy dust]

The bridge repair one on wish wall in bone bottom Br

[visual schooner]

Savage beastfly 2

[hidden tide]

Silver bells, just annoying how they fall randomly

[hidden tide]

Oh... I broke it

[pale ingot]

You’ve heard of elf on the shelf, but now get ready for

[weary gorge]

Silver bells and its not even close

[mossy dust]

I gave 300 shards just for me to stand on the bridge and see it fail wtf

[unreal kite]

Prime on the Lime

[lime lotus]

silver bells was inconveinient but didn’t rlly take me that long

[pale ingot]

liquid lacquer

[weary gorge]

Mine is still up lol

[lime lotus]

true

[peak musk]

Bone tyrant

[mossy dust]

Dam

[cursive pagoda]

trails end without any bilewater knowledge

[unreal kite]

silk and soul purely because you’re required to beat groal the great

[mossy dust]

The only reason I did behllhart wish wall is bc I get a job and a home

[lime lotus]

yuck I hate groal I agree

[visual schooner]

Even if you dont break it, it still disappears on act 3

[weary gorge]

On my current save I kept my bridge and my statue alive, im proud. I wonder if they'll get blown up in act 3

[cursive pagoda]

or great taste of pharloom FUCK YOUR BITCHASS CELLAR

[mossy dust]

And get craws to surge me forever

[weary gorge]

Awe.....

[karmic trail]

or the statue; though at least if you dont actively hit the statue it'll stand .. until act 3

[mossy dust]

Aw

Guys fav moment in silskong?

[lofty shell]

but he is so great

[weary gorge]

I was proud for like 2 seconds

[tulip spire]

The statue is funny

[lofty shell]

the final segment of the game after you get all 3 hearts in act 3

[unreal kite]

bro funny story about the bridge, i paid my shards for it, and then like 30 minutes later i was falling from above bone bottom for fun,
and landed RIGHT ontop of the bridge

[hidden tide]

Bruh, is the pickled mugmaggot in bilewater or sinners road

[hollow void]

I respect Bilewater the way I don’t respect the putrified ducts

[karmic trail]

well, the nectar cellar is 1/5 of the great taste of pharloom and yeah its really stupid

[barren dew]

The high halls arena ain't for the weak what were they thinking when they made this

[mossy dust]

When I play the threefold melody in front of the lace elevator

[tulip spire]

Great taste of Pharloom is fun

[visual schooner]

Architect melody/abyss escape sequence

[unreal kite]

would you eat a pickled muckmaggot

[weary gorge]

This is really specific but the first time I got to use plasmium phial and the steel satchel to plasmium od in act 2 I was so proud

[mossy dust]

Watching big backs eat Big Macs is fun

[lime lotus]

guys I just got to act 3 I can’t wait to see my great freind the huntress! I finally got all the organs and I can’t wait to give it to her so she can feed her kids when they hatch😀😀😀😀😀😀

[unreal kite]

architect melody

[mossy dust]

Umm she won’t be there

[barren dew]

Hell no

[mossy dust]

Her kids would greet you tho

[visual schooner]

😭

[plucky stag]

i let the huntress die because i literally couldn't figure out how to do this wish

[unreal kite]

i just didn’t bother with it

[lofty shell]

longclaw is good tho

[lime lotus]

yay, I also can’t wait to meet Styx in my steel soul play through:))))))) I haven’t seen him yet and I want to just meet up with him!

[unreal kite]

i genuinely went up, saw the wish, and denied the wish

[lime lotus]

meh overrated

[karmic trail]

he's just baiting

[plucky stag]

imagine denying any wish

[unreal kite]

i wasnt prepared to do that much shell shard grinding

[lofty shell]

guys whats your favourite wish in the game

[lime lotus]

witch crest wish

[unreal kite]

bellhart’s glory because i get a sick ass home

[hidden tide]

Idk,

[karmic trail]

Honestly, I can' tell how good it is, but my brain want it

[barren dew]

All of them sucks they all want me dead

[lime lotus]

it’s not very noticeable

[plucky stag]

yeah, the one that gives you your own house

[lime lotus]

but needed for completion

[karmic trail]

BUT:
200px hunter crest or 300px architect/reaper with longclaw

[visual schooner]

Flea festival

[lofty shell]

ngl
hornet is like an anime character
she lost her power 3 times in a row
first, when she was being taken to grand mother silk in a cage
second, when her clothes got stolen when she was kidnapped and thrown in the slab
third, when she got cursed by the greyroot parasite

[lime lotus]

meh

[unreal kite]

lost lace vs GLORBUNGUS, THE MAGNIFICENT

[lime lotus]

I don’t ever really thing range is a huge issue in silksong

[barren dew]

No offence but what does anime have to do with her dealing with crazy stuff

[devout inlet]

Hi

[lofty shell]

crazy stuff like these happen in anime

[barren dew]

Ohh

[unreal kite]

why nobody answer

[karmic trail]

i should use tools more often, you are right

[hidden tide]

Not a question

[barren dew]

To these who beaten the high halls arena, HOW did you do it, I'm genuinely confused

[lime lotus]

No not even tools do you ever really like think “damn this enemy is just pitiful of reach of my nail, if only I had a couple pixels longer reach”

[lime lotus]

trial and error twin🥀

[karmic trail]

I do, a lot. more for crows, and flying ones

[hidden tide]

I fluked

[unreal kite]

do the Trail’s End quest so shakra helps you, get the ascendant’s grip, get to the final wave and then camp on the highest point of the side wall

[barren dew]

Even the damn tools don't want to help me 💔

[lime lotus]

just ignore them, h

[unreal kite]

shakra will clear everything for you

[lofty shell]

if you are struggling
get architect crest
then get these things at the very least
pollip pouch
voltvessels, cogfly and conchcutter
get a lot of shell shards
you are good to go

[visual schooner]

Die 50 times and try to fluke it OR ascendant grip + shakra/garmond & zaza

[karmic trail]

global aggro

[barren dew]

Oh wait yeah the trail's end

[karmic trail]

i beat it in 2 tries 👀 without shakra
ascendant is very helpful

[unreal kite]

can i be completely honest, Second Sentinel was one of my favorite fights in the game

[lime lotus]

if you use wisp lantern and cling grip and hold onto the top of the walls you can guarantee win against the mini boss waves

[barren dew]

I completely forgot that thanks

[hidden tide]

By which I mean, I killed one of the big ones the second time they spawn and was able to easily kill the other

[weary gorge]

Might just need to go get stronger but the better you get the less you need

[barren dew]

My shell shards are praying on my downfall

[weary gorge]

I've done that lol

[lime lotus]

gms hater

[hidden tide]

Bruh, HOW DO I GET TO WISP THICKET AND EXHAUST ORGAN

[unreal kite]

yall fw my trobbio build 🤑

[karmic trail]

wisp is a secret enterance in greymoor
For exhausr organ, you have to go through the mist

[hidden tide]

Lol, you use the flying tool?

[lofty shell]

grind rosaries from the guys above the halls in songclave
buy shard bundles from bellhart

[plucky stag]

actually after it's been mentioned, my favorite has to be trail's end

[weary gorge]

Lowkey whatever the name of that straight non piercing throwing pin is called, is great on the last wave of hhg. Tons of ammo, hard to miss

[lime lotus]

witch crest my queen

[formal knoll]

Garymorr and sinners road

[barren dew]

For some reason Garmond never shows up

[weary gorge]

No, I usually use pimpillo and straight pin

[hidden tide]

Yeah but how, I get lost and is there a map

[gloomy hill]

Choral Chambers

[visual schooner]

No 2nd vesticrest for wading bell 😔

[unreal kite]

yeah i’m a witchcrest main

[karmic trail]

needline; play it near the silk flies. whatever the small white winged things

[unreal kite]

i got the vesticrest, but i’m still not using warding bell

[hidden tide]

Hmm, I use long pin and the flying tool

[barren dew]

Then I'm having a skill issue 💔

[visual schooner]

Pretty sure you need to interact with him in act 1 and duel him

[hidden tide]

Ohhhhh, okay...

[lofty shell]

if you are in act 3
you can make it stronger

[lime lotus]

sammmmme lowk same build but voltvessel instead of pinpillo

[karmic trail]

how many masks (and needle upgrade)

[light swan]

hunter i just beat all of the mio demo it’s SOO GOOD you were so right oml

[hidden tide]

Act 2 I think

[unreal kite]

i am, i’m trying to beat TTrobbio rn

[barren dew]

The wisp lantern is actually good low-key

[pastel plank]

Is this like a water reservoir or what (Deep Docks 2019 close-up from ACMI)

[unreal kite]

this looks like the among us map bro

[weary gorge]

I think on my speedrun I meant to use straight pin and the cogflies but I somehow missed the cogflies. Got super lucky and did it first try with only 2 needle upgrades and no mask upgrades

[pastel plank]

It's Deep Docks 2019

[karmic trail]

the real path actually DO NOT EXIST until you get the needlin, you can't even just brute force try. have to get it

[light swan]

blue lake

[lime lotus]

Just use cling grip and wisp lantern, hold on the top of the walls and the big guys can’t hit you while wisp lantern whittles them down

[hidden tide]

What the f-

[visual schooner]

You duel him in act 2 but i couldnt duel him when i first interacted with him in choral chambers for some reason

[lofty shell]

skeld but glitchy

[hidden tide]

Hmm... Good thing I have it

[barren dew]

Trust I am stronger but I still struggle but I think I will go with the shakes help

[hidden tide]

Glitch?

[pastel plank]

Far Fields 2019

[lofty shell]

just spam tools with architect
it makes the game baby easy mode

[lime lotus]

@barren dew

[karmic trail]

I also spent a large amount of plasmium on this route. this is before OD
Probably 500 rosaries worth

[unreal kite]

why is there a massive skull of that flower enemy in shellwood

[barren dew]

I talked to him a lot I meant he never shows up in the arena unless I missed something

[formal knoll]

Skull cave

[hidden tide]

Wow that's a lot, so I should use plasium?

[barren dew]

I saw it DW I will try the wisp lantern

[visual schooner]

Maybe i needed to help him in more areas or smth

[pastel plank]

I think it was supposed to be the Sprintmaster room, just a placeholder most likely

[unreal kite]

was i a bit late

[lime lotus]

Ok cool,

[lofty shell]

ye

[pastel plank]

You'll find everything for free, don't worry

[formal knoll]

You can buy the stuff from Grendel and you'll be able to find everything else in hunters March

[lime lotus]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[plucky stag]

he would have charged you for the tool you just picked up

[barren dew]

Wait let me check rq

[karmic trail]

for context, i entered that arena with 8 masks and 2 needle upgrades (shiny), because I didn't fight the cogwork dancer. If you do, you can get 9 mask and 3 needle upgrades (hivesteel), which will cut through anything

[candid kayak]

dealt the killing blow with cross stitch lmao

[unreal kite]

yeah i found his stuff for free, stonks

get shit on bozo grey skarr

[plucky stag]

and apparently the fractured mask is such a good one (especially for steel soul)

[unreal kite]

the invisible wind defeats seth

[candid kayak]

especially if you're cheesing with save quitting before death

[barren dew]

Honestly I might do that as well if the wisp isn't working

[lime lotus]

I WISH THE WEAVER BOSSES HAD MORE VARIATION

[candid kayak]

which, mind you, I have done ZERO TIMES in this steel soul run

[unreal kite]

they’re all weavers

[formal knoll]

They're probably going to be in the pantheons

[lime lotus]

ITS JUST ALL THROW JUNK AT YOU

[karmic trail]

i probably used the architect crest, though i did not spam tools. the stalled charged down pogo is very powerful

[unreal kite]

hey pal can you do me a favor

[candid kayak]

haven't even died in memories; first tried karmelita and lost verdania

[formal knoll]

Cuz we've only fought in two but we know that there are at least five from the different nests that worked with each other to overthrow GMS

[barren dew]

I currently have seven masks and hivesteel

[lime lotus]

2/3 weaver bosses throw needles, one throws bells!!!!!!

[candid kayak]

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-widow-hornet-bonk-arito-gif-13643966964603239778

[karmic trail]

get more mask, but thats to be fair a bit optional
git gud i guess 💀

[barren dew]

Pretty sure cuz the architect itself does double damage I think

[lime lotus]

What is hivesteel do

[candid kayak]

you can get 6 shards (6.5 masks) in act 1, 10 more in act 2 (9 masks) and 4 more (10 masks total) in act 3

[karmic trail]

no ... the architect hit (needle-2 + 1 + 1). its complicated

[leaden delta]

Oh no wait

[barren dew]

Oh

[candid kayak]

more damage

[plush coral]

How good is the conch cutter

[lime lotus]

oh cool where is it

[pastel plank]

Sharia

[unreal kite]

@candid kayak use beastling call here, totally won’t end your steel soul

[formal knoll]

It's the upgraded name because it's made from steel from the hive gifted to hornet by Queen Vespa

[candid kayak]

upgrade needle with pale oil

[lime lotus]

it’s really good. Well worth it

[leaden delta]

oil

[karmic trail]

fully charged down pogo do hit for 2x, and full needle strike 3x
but regular's just 1x

[pastel plank]

I want to establish Shakra Law

[plush coral]

Don't

[dusky parrot]

How can i step back in prog? I want to re right trobbio hes sucha w

[lime lotus]

wait does that kill you?

[plush coral]

Like why, explain to me

[formal knoll]

It'll glitch you and kill you

[pastel plank]

holy moly what was mount fay in 2021 all about

[visual schooner]

They still havent patched that?

[candid kayak]

how would that kill you exactly?

[lime lotus]

you can refight him in act 3

[unreal kite]

https://youtu.be/J1TaRI2LIIY?si=AJfulWmnm69TsbPv

[plush coral]

Just respawn

[barren dew]

What I hate about the arena isn't even the big guys, it's the Ministers I have a beef with these guys for no reason

[dusky parrot]

In the void?

[candid kayak]

wait a minute do you hit worms below the ground lmfao

[lime lotus]

no, in his arena

[formal knoll]

But if it's your steel soul so run you'll lose it

[dusky parrot]

Nice

[karmic trail]

Minister? the stupid ones with the white dress
they have like 0 braincell how is that hard

[lime lotus]

yeah you get an upgraded claw mirror

[pastel plank]

Have they ever heard about menu quits?

[barren dew]

Oh makes sense

[visual schooner]

The thing is, it literally wont let you until you restart your game

[plush coral]

Respawn

[pastel plank]

Sucks to be them...

[candid kayak]

ministers are these

[barren dew]

Never said they were hard but they are annoying sometimes

[unreal kite]

I hate.

[candid kayak]

annoying bastards...

[plush coral]

I was lowk just thinking about that why don't you just menu quit

[pastel plank]

Not as much as..

[peak musk]

I am the prime minister

[karmic trail]

you know. for those, threadstorm won't be a bad idea. Or the sharp dart (?)

[unreal kite]

i think those clawmaidens are more annoying though, so bad that you can permenantly disable them if you want to

[plush coral]

The dudes that fly with the pins

[formal knoll]

Twin you can't respon on steel soul

[karmic trail]

sharpdart give you i-frames, so it can be worth it

[plush coral]

Ik man I'm joking

[pastel plank]

no

[plush coral]

Omg even worse

Annoying shits

[peak musk]

I hate this dude

[barren dew]

I ALWAYS FORGET TO CHANGE THESE I really need to remind myself to equip thredstorm

[karmic trail]

reed. they are ok.

the big ones with the stick are therefore "grand reed". the one that stand and duel is something else

[weary gorge]

This is a good strat too. Eventually you will get better too, just over time as you play more

[pastel plank]

I've always loved the Citadel enemies, but after the HH arena I started to like passionately hate this creature

[plush coral]

Speaking of annoying shits I'ma go disable the maidens in to be able to fight the gauntlet without their presence

[barren dew]

How it feels like to not get told skill issue for once

[pastel plank]

the gang

holly shittery wth was Mount Fay

[karmic trail]

favorite's probably the judge (not the last judge), of all

[plush coral]

Why tf is sherma there

[obsidian swift]

why is hooded sherma there

[young saffron]

They rly just throwing shit on there 😭

[pastel plank]

dlc spoler

[barren dew]

What is their deal genuinely

[plush coral]

Nooo does sherma become evil and we gotta end up killing him like Myla 😭

[karmic trail]

probably just unused texture

[weary gorge]

Lol we all get better by the end. I highly reccomend you at least try a second playthrough after the first, its crazy how easy the second run is

[plush coral]

Where did you get that

[sinful cobalt]

What is a Silksong?

[plush coral]

No damn clue whatsoever

[shy escarp]

a fictional thing people think exists but doesn't

[lime lotus]

we got too many maggots, send that shit to clean water STAT

unforunately not all, there are several locations missing

Daily Silksong News is not me, but i run daily DLC news

ahahahahahahah

[pastel plank]

[sinful cobalt]

Will the DLC name first letter is "P"?

[lofty shell]

ye

[plucky stag]

quite a coincidence ara has that name considering the bell beast

[pastel plank]

this one

[weary gorge]

Did you guys know that witch crest heal isnt effected by plasmium OD?

[pastel plank]

wdym?

[lime lotus]

fun fact: hornet is NOT the silksong

[weary gorge]

GMS for sure, but im more of an ass man so GMS

[young saffron]

How though

[pastel plank]

wait what

[quasi bison]

Sinners road is so painful

[pastel plank]

wdym how?

[lime lotus]

hornet isn’t silksong

[sinful cobalt]

Hornet or H0RN3Y?

[pastel plank]

haaaaai Ventii

[young saffron]

Like Where'd you get that file from? Was it officially released orr :0

[hidden tide]

Where last sinner

[quasi bison]

Yahallo

[golden turret]

Usually healing while od with plasmium only gives 1 mask. But witch crest isn't affected

[lime lotus]

…
Hornet.

[weary gorge]

Plasmium OD gives you health regen and to keep it from being OP reduces binding to healing only one mask. Except for beast and witch

[sinful cobalt]

+1 slap

[lofty shell]

wait till bro sees the area after that
its located on the other side of a breakable wall in the east of sinner's road

[lime lotus]

witch tech just dropped

[lime lotus]

:( aw man

[hidden tide]

I want to play as quirrel

[golden turret]

How much is too much

[quasi bison]

Where shakra is?

[pastel plank]

It's an official map from ACMI, Australian Center for Moving Images, they have a HK platform, and they show off the progress maps

[golden turret]

Skin mod.

[lime lotus]

no amount of much is too much

[lofty shell]

guys if i ever play silksong again
which crest should i give chance?

1. beast
2. shaman
3. witch

[young saffron]

Oh I completely forgot acmi exists

[pastel plank]

Yeaaaaha

[lime lotus]

witch 100%

[hidden tide]

In an entirely new game

[golden turret]

Witch all the way

[hardy tangle]

wizard

[lofty shell]

the left same room where you find green prince

[weary gorge]

These are 3 of the most fun crests in the game so all of them

[hidden tide]

Team charry, MAKE A GAME WITH QUIRREL

[pastel plank]

Yeah, that's where it's from, it'll be going on until february 2026, I believe

[quasi bison]

Who??

[golden turret]

Ah. Start new game with skin mod (ik what you mean I'm joking)

[pastel plank]

Nah, there won't be one

[hidden tide]

I need help on that

[quasi bison]

The one locked up?

[hardy tangle]

quirrels backstory is already established so it will be a little boring

[pastel plank]

yesh

[hidden tide]

There should be, wouldn't that be fun?

[young saffron]

There won't be another HK for years like how gow 2018 was revealed after a long time

[golden turret]

Lemme say this simply he does so u not Able play quirrel

[hidden tide]

We still don't know everything

[quasi bison]

So, yes. I'm currently doing that rn. It's a world of pain but I think Im starting to get it

[hardy tangle]

gooofy boofy grammar

[golden turret]

Caveman language

[hardy tangle]

he was an assistant of monomon and was likely a nobody before that

[golden turret]

For those dumb as a rock

[pastel plank]

Personally, I'd say not really. I think he's not that improtant to the overall lore, both TK and Hornet are extraordinarily powerful creatures, and they deal with extraordinary powerful beings and obstacles. Quirrel is pretty much an average bug, plus it's pretty straight-forwardly implied he dies after TK binds Monomon

[hidden tide]

What damage does his nail do and how is he good at fighting

[silver oak]

Any silkers in chat

[hardy tangle]

also it HAS to be a prequel, how would quirrel explore his backstory when monomons mask gave him amnesia?

[golden turret]

Bro only lived so long because of monomon having to be sealed awah

[pastel plank]

Good luck ;3

[golden turret]

Wdym?

[hidden tide]

Hmmmmm... true...

[sinful cobalt]

🤔

[silver oak]

wdym wdym

[hardy tangle]

just look at this

[trim estuary]

Not anymore

[silver oak]

seems pretty swells explanatory

[lofty shell]

ye

[golden turret]

Wdym silkers

[pastel plank]

I'd say none of these would work

[silver oak]

Are you one?

[young saffron]

Yes

[silver oak]

You can say yes that’s allowed

[lofty shell]

we haven't seen a shaman in combat too tho
how do you even know that they can block

[hidden tide]

I see...

[hardy tangle]

says this then gives me 0 explanation at all

[quasi bison]

Friend now because I like your name

[pastel plank]

Team Cherry have stated, that if they make a third game you would be able ot play it without playing either HK or Silksong first, so I don't think any of these characters would be the protagonist. My best guess is a brand new character tbh

[lofty shell]

fr

[hardy tangle]

hit the shamans in act 3

[quasi bison]

Lol

[pastel plank]

I was writing it down ahahahah

[lime lotus]

maybe phantom?????

[sinful cobalt]

Who is silkin'?

[golden turret]

I'm scared to do so...

[young saffron]

They told that about silksong and the games hard asf for inexperienced players 😭

[hardy tangle]

theyre dead

[lime lotus]

prequel

[silver oak]

Hollow Knight: Sandsea and Steel

[pastel plank]

I mean story-wise, though I would agree it might be harder to understand Silksong's story without having played the first game

[silver oak]

Coming 2033

[young saffron]

The only one is pale king 🙂‍↕️

[weary gorge]

That doesnt really rule any of them out. They had the same goal with silksong and used a character from the first game

[lime lotus]

maybe it could be like a steel person and it could go into steel city lore

[hardy tangle]

so shamans would work 💔 literally didnt specify which shaman just a shaman, so you could do so much with it, you can completely disassociate with hallownest and pharloom if you do shamans cus theyre in both hallownest and pharloom meaning theyre likely everywhere

[golden turret]

No. Hollow Knight: PABLO

[hardy tangle]

another game in pharloom how fun

[silver oak]

Always bet on steel assassins DLC

[weary gorge]

Tbh a shaman could be cool

[golden turret]

@young saffron how dare you reject the pablo

[weary gorge]

I want more steel soul content tbh

[silver oak]

Always bet on Pharloom Bay DLC

[sinful cobalt]

Assassin Creed: Shdw knight

[hardy tangle]

theres seriously so many you can do with a shaman protag like whys there even a point of thinking about the other candidates

some of them might work but shamans will do it best

[lime lotus]

I feel like the shamans were always lored to be kinda selfish tho, more interested in honing their abilities then ever trying to help anybody.

[silver oak]

Next TC game isn’t gonna be HK series

calling it now

[midnight fractal]

shamans suck

[pastel plank]

Honestly, I think the third game would likely be the last one, it would make sense to me tbh. In the first game we see TK becoming the Void Higher Being, in Silksong so far we've seen them helping Hornet, plus now we know that the Abyss is likely everywhere, it's just one of the layers of the world, and no matter how far you go, if you dig deep enough you'll get to the Abyss. The third game would likely be centered around the void, and it's suggested that it might also be very closely tied to the Steelhearts and their Masters

[hidden tide]

NOOOOOO

[hardy tangle]

what if its about breaking that cycle? theres no specific shaman that it has to be based on so you can do anything with it

[lime lotus]

True that would be kinda cool, I think that reusing soul would be kinda boring tho

[dawn narwhal]

how tf do u kill clawmaidens gng these guys r gonna ruin my speedrun

[hardy tangle]

also shamans can do things with void as well if they want to explore that more

[lofty shell]

bro we haven't even gotten a silksong DLC yet

[lime lotus]

yk there’s a way to delete them all right?

[plucky stag]

always bet on pharloom reconstruction dlc

[hardy tangle]

EXPANDING not reusing

[golden turret]

the snail shaman trapping you in their basement to be their exterminator

[lime lotus]

oh yeah like some gimmick things

[dawn narwhal]

i don't have double jump

[hardy tangle]

like combining spells etc

[lime lotus]

the bell shaman being more interested in seeing the extent of his abilities rather then helping the people

[hidden tide]

Diagonal attacks?

[pastel plank]

The main issue with all of these to me would be their gameplay potential. Lace is kinda similar to Hornet, and I would also argue she's not as important to the overall lore as Hornet is. She is thematically tied to silk, which is a concept Silksong revolves around, and I don't think TC would choose her as the third game protagonist, since she would be thematically similar to Silksong: silk from enemies, silk spells, etc. Plus, I don't even think Lace would be able to/want to leave Pharloom for any reason pretty much, I don't see anything suggesting it may happen as of right now

THK is way too big

[golden turret]

Wait aren't we talking abt HK in a sk chat...

[lime lotus]

technically we’re drawing evidence for a third game, it’s neutral

[pastel plank]

I actually like this idea, this might be a good bet

[quartz shell]

thats why zote is the perfect candidate

[pastel plank]

We haven't but still

[hidden tide]

Whenever you write these I feel like it's art that I'm reading, I can't disagree with it

[plucky stag]

quirrel prequel

[lime lotus]

I honestly would rlly like to see a pin based combat instead of needle, I was hoping maybe a crest would do that but the closest thing is wanderer charged

[light swan]

all im hoping for is that it takes place in the serene kingdom that zemer and the ever bloom came from

[unreal kite]

i watch at the edge 🔥

[weary gorge]

I could see them not using lace, I would definetly not expect Quirrel. I just dont think theyre off the table

[lime lotus]

I thought everbloom was from pharloom?

[pastel plank]

Idk if it's a joke, but like seriously, I think a game about Zote COULD be cool, especially considering that he is a pretty arrogant character, and it would be interesting to see his development and him becoming more compassionate and willing to help others, but I personally feel like such huge character development would take too much screen time

[unreal kite]

edging to some apple pie………..

[pastel plank]

Awwwww thank you :3

[quartz shell]

i am not joking around,

[pastel plank]

I love yapping

[lofty shell]

ngl
i think zote is connected to shellwood and the greyroot parasite in one way or another

[dawn narwhal]

how do u deal with clawmaidens w/o double jump bru

[lime lotus]

I WANT A PIN BASED COMBAT IN THE NEXT GAME IT LOOKS SO FUN ARGGGHHH

[golden turret]

They could do a tag team like game. You could have lace and hornet travelling the world, going to new areas before reaching a end of getting rid of pale beings entirely using the help of Mr mushroom (the squiggly eyes in the ending means he's got lots of knowledge)

[hidden tide]

New weapon

[lime lotus]

can’t do anything besides kill them tbh

[pastel plank]

Gameplay-wise, I think it would make sense for TC to come up with something completely different, and it would be really interesting. That's why I think a shaman could be a great protagonist

[lime lotus]

I was hoping z crest maybe

[dawn narwhal]

im not spending all my time on Mount fay

[light swan]

i can totally see lace learning the light magic from the everbloom kingdom and using that if needs be because Hollow Knight: Lacelight is a cool name

[short hill]

don't tell moofwing

[light swan]

definitely not at all

[lime lotus]

it’s not that hard cro and its needed to beat the game

[lofty shell]

how would the platforming look like with a shaman?

[dawn narwhal]

no it's not???

[clear delta]

New game about ze'emer and her land guyse

[lime lotus]

its not???

[pastel plank]

I'm sure Quirrel won't be back. We don't even know how long the gap between HK and Silksong is, in fact it might be thousands of years, might be literally a day, we don't know. It might be the case that by the time Silksong begins everybody from the first game has already died

[light swan]

lace has experience with silk And void, and is personally connected to void

she is seen conducting silkflies and has a liking to white flowers

i think lace exploring zemers kingdom would be cool even if it’s unlikely

[hardy tangle]

how would lace even heal

[golden turret]

You get it from white lady from your memories and there's no telling where everbloom is from because in hollow knight you get it from grey mourners and you have no idea where she gets it from

[clear delta]

There is no healing!

[lime lotus]

lacing it

[sinful cobalt]

ABSOLUTELY NOT

[pastel plank]

I think it's mostly just a silly reference, tbh I feel like this theory is reaaaally shallow

[lime lotus]

WHY

[light swan]

she got it from her kingdom which she calls the serene kingdom or smth

[golden turret]

Hornet.

[sinful cobalt]

🧌

[hardy tangle]

just pack it up atp

[clear delta]

Lace game just seems lame even though it makes sense
Cause she's too similar to hornet

[golden turret]

Well there's the setting for our third game

[light swan]

That’s what IVE BEEN SAYINF

[hidden tide]

Might be a few years, I don't think too long but still a while after the events of Hollow Knight

[pastel plank]

Idk, I would imagine a shaman being comperatively slow, but more focused on using spells

[hardy tangle]

i will glaze shaman protag to my last breath

[lime lotus]

Kissing hornet #bugyuri #lacenet

[clear delta]

Perhaps we need. A game...with a DUED as the protagonist...

[golden turret]

Xd

[floral delta]

Zote boat

[sinful cobalt]

+2 slaps

[light swan]

i am so ready for the third game to take place in the everbloom kingdom IT HAS TO

[lime lotus]

aw man

[weary gorge]

Theres no reason to think that the next game is in the future. I dont think itll be Quirrel but theres really no reason it couldnt be. It could easily be before the first game or in between the two

[floral delta]

You play as the boat

[quasi bison]

Guysss. I got so used to the beast crest, I don't like the other down pogos nowww

[hardy tangle]

dont forget they can block attacks too

[lime lotus]

Next game you play as dung defender smh

[coarse leaf]

#shawkra

[pastel plank]

Well, Hornet as it seems can live pretty much forever, so there's nothing that would really make it impossible for Silksong to take place after a hundred years after HK

[weary gorge]

Beast pogo is dope

[clear delta]

He's huge though

[light swan]

Hollow Knight: Lacelight
pleaseeeee

[lofty shell]

okay
the combat would be more revolved around using spells
but platforming is also quite a major part of hollow knight games

[sinful cobalt]

Or droog defender

[hidden tide]

True, there's not really a way to tell tbh

[pastel plank]

It could, but narratively, I think TC would be more inclined to continue the story

[light swan]

i dont think anyone cares when i talk about exploring the everbloom kingdom ngl

[lime lotus]

How do we share that server

[clear delta]

Lace game = Lame game!

[weary gorge]

I think its a cool idea

[pastel plank]

Yeah, that too, although Hornet is also capable of it

[midnight fractal]

yall are talking about the next game as if we will get it next year or something 😭

[rocky pendant]

First playthrough of any game I always wait to try on a boss till I have seen every attack, otherwise its no fun being patient over and over. First playthrough of this game I did the same, fought last judge just now for the 9th time, after eight deaths, 6 if which were second phase, I then proceeded to not greed the circle attack since using the hunters crest pogo leaves me vulnerable, and I no hit it that same try :D

[light swan]

it sounds like such a good opportunity since everbloom directly counters void, and it introduces a whole new magic system to combat void

[weary gorge]

I dont think theres really any reason to assume this tbh

[hardy tangle]

hornet can only counter and with a specific skill equiped, its not focused on it

[hidden tide]

Do you think TC reads these

[lofty shell]

guys
the black void bug at the end of the silksong true ending looks so cool
they should make a game about him now

[rocky pendant]

Really fun boss, I love that the boss was learnable

[coarse leaf]

i remember when it used to be the ultrakillmemes server

[placid coyote]

im playtesting rn

[light swan]

also we can finally learn about the void civilization in the everbloom kingdom

[weary gorge]

Can't wait to get the everbloom dlc expanded into a game for 7 years

[lime lotus]

huh crazy

[pastel plank]

I'm almost sure Hornet won't be the protagonist, because we already have an entire game dedicated to her. Neither would TK work

[hardy tangle]

ts too much effort 🥀

[rocky pendant]

silkposting has evolved holy

[hidden tide]

Hit the other guys attack, it counters

[light swan]

i do think lace although lame is super plausible it just feels like something that can happen

[lofty shell]

what i think is
silksong is a satisfactory end to the hollow knight franchise
team cherry would work on a new project

[clear delta]

It is pretty logical. But it is superrr lame

I'd like something more unique

[light swan]

there’s always ways to take things further

[hardy tangle]

i dont like lace personality her dialogue would suck

[quasi bison]

Sinners road make me upset so I'ma play other game to make me feel better

[light swan]

note that character development exists

[hidden tide]

True

[clear delta]

Oh yeah spoiled brat protagonist sounds like a hit or miss

[golden turret]

Wait i thought of the best idea. The setting is in the serene kingdom. You have hornet, lace, Mr. Mushroom, and... The knight. Since we will be in serene kingdom where the everbloom is from and from true ending in silksong we know that the knight still exists, we could get everblooms to bring the knight out of the void and get him back

[pastel plank]

The Steel Master build-up. I really don't think TC are just throwing out some suggestions about them being able to tame HBs, and being so preoccupied with everything that's going on in various kingdoms just to then forget about that and not mention it again

[weary gorge]

Was just typing this. Its much more interesting to watch and iconic but annoying character grow to he a more relatable one

[light swan]

she’s clearly a different person and less bitchy after the ending i feel

or at least she can be

[pastel plank]

Yeah, you're right

[clear delta]

Hollow KNIGHT SULA IS COMING

[hidden tide]

Bye guys

[cunning geode]

have you considered things don’t end well for everyone

[hardy tangle]

she's still gonna start off as an annoying kid, it would be weird if she has a diff personality from silksong as soon as the game starts

[weary gorge]

I must be out of the loop. Why couldnt this happen before silksong?

[light swan]

she has potential and there’s no reason to assume she’s bad just because of what happened in the beginning of silksong

[ruby dune]

Dayum

[pastel plank]

god destroys the world simulator

[vagrant cave]

city of steel dlc soon!!

[clear delta]

She did giggle like a kid in the ending I think if that means anything

[light swan]

she’s much less annoying in act 3 and can still change after the true ending

[golden turret]

Yeah but it would be so cool

[hardy tangle]

also another game about silk right after SILKsong? hell nah

[cunning geode]

nope

[weary gorge]

The character development would happen during the game

[pastel plank]

That's what I'm thinking, but maybe not Sula specifically, I personally don't feel like their design looks too memorable

[vagrant cave]

we got another game about bugs after the first bug game

[hardy tangle]

yeah but what if i said i dont like her squeaky voice what about that

[clear delta]

I like it

[light swan]

i don’t think it’ll be centered around silk
again i think it’ll be centered around the light energy the everbloom uses and will take place in the serene kingdom that the everbloom comes from

[sinful cobalt]

To make everyone in the community Silkin' all over the room?

[clear delta]

This is why we are actually getting a ze'emer game set in the past!

[hardy tangle]

why lace though

[clear delta]

Will a HK game ever have a male protagonist

[light swan]

hornets voice got a lot deeper and matured, she no longer did a lot of hegales and adinos

[weary gorge]

In hollow knight: transcendence she becomes a man by the end of the game

[hardy tangle]

hornet protag mattered cus its weaver shit, knight protag mattered cus its void shit, lace and light!!! unrelated whats it even about

[clear delta]

What are thes reactions

[golden turret]

I was gonna say isn't the knight make but ig the knight is genderless

[clear delta]

Yeah so not a male

[pastel plank]

What exactly? I mean, considering there was Steel Seer Jinn in Hollownest, and that both she and Zi haven't appeared recently, it doesn't seem like it, the Masters also seem to have been around for a while. But if we get a game about them, we would likely focus on defeating them, which wouldn't make sense as a prequel

[weary gorge]

I just want more thicc grand mommies

[sinful cobalt]

[lofty shell]

i think after silksong DLCs
team cherry is gonna work on a new game
which might also be a metroidvania
but completely different world, completely different lore and all

[dusky parrot]

How many faces is Lace fight 2

[light swan]

it feels like the thing tc would do, she’s the secondary character in skong after all

i also tjink she has enough of a character arc left (from being worthless to finding value in silksong) and there’s a lot they can expand on

she’s also deeply atuned with both silk and void, the connection with void would make things a bit more personal in a kingdom revolving around void and everbloom

[dusky parrot]

She is screaming every second to me

[golden turret]

Uhh 2 I think

[weary gorge]

Its a totally legitimate idea to imagine a game taking place at the origins

[sinful cobalt]

Some WHAT!?

[pastel plank]

Not saying I don't, I just feel like it may not necessarily feel like the protagonist, especially for a game where we would stand against some super powerful creatures

[pastel plank]

At the origins of what exactly?

[weary gorge]

GMS 🥵

[midnight fractal]

if they allowed us to see hornet naked then imagine how it will be with ze'emer 🤤

[clear delta]

The protagonist of hk looks like a tiny toddler

[dusky parrot]

Ur sure? Doesnt each scream means a new phase? She screams 3 times but i cant really tell

[cunning geode]

stop talking

[naive jasper]

i just want more THICC king khanns

[light swan]

also lace likes white flowers and everbloom is a white flower ………………………….

[silent sand]

😭 i prefer coming back to crest discussion than whatever is going on

[pastel plank]

I'm not saying it's impossible, it just feels like it would make more sense to give the Shade Lord some proper ending (perhaphs in the Silksong DLC)

[lofty shell]

@hardy tangle
how do you think a shaman would platform?
we don't really see them being agile like the knight or hornet

[sinful cobalt]

☠️💔🥀

[hardy tangle]

they can just use the staff

you could play as a young shaman idk

all the shamans we see are some uncs and aunties

[pastel plank]

Hahaha good point, but there are some lore reasons for that, TK is a void creature and a vessel. Sula is a vassal and it seems she's just a regular bug

[golden turret]

Also @light swan , if there would be lace then I don't think the game would be called lacelight, silksong doesn't include hornets name and hollow knight doesn't include the knights name. I think it would be called something like bloomlight because everblooms plus light ig makes bloomlight

[light swan]

she’s been confined to pharloom her whole life and now her strings have finally been cut free and she sees the value in her life

she has so much of an arc to continue

[hardy tangle]

whats this got to do with light

[light swan]

might not be lacelight but it sounds cool anyway

[pastel plank]

We actually do, brochacholidonium

[frosty light]

yes, zote.......

[pastel plank]

no

[clear delta]

Sula can summon the void though

[light swan]

everbloom = light
void = dark
they oppose! (besides lacelight just sounds cool i didn’t say it was gonna be the actual name at all)

[pastel plank]

hk is too woke for that

[golden turret]

She got a bad case of muckmaggots

[pastel plank]

she just nakey

[hardy tangle]

lace already has an established backstory, she'll just be exploring and growing up but theres like a chunk of lore that cant even be created

[light swan]

i just think it’s entirely possible

[clear delta]

What if it's a gay man

[pastel plank]

Right. Essentially, what I'm saying is that a vassal can be the third game protagonist, I just personally don't want it to be Sula specifically aahhahaha

[light swan]

void civilization, everbloom, etc

[frosty light]

what do you guys think Fearless Fox is gonna be about

[lofty shell]

silksong's platforming is significantly different than hollow knight platforming
you can become a balloon in silksong for floating in the air, you can use your needle as a grappling hook, you have a super jump
but you don't have a super dash

[cunning geode]

oh fuck green prince protag

[frosty light]

assuming they havent scrapped that like 5 years later

[hardy tangle]

we know very little about shamans tho

[pastel plank]

Hhmmmm 🤓

[frosty light]

it's the clover dancers' kid who is also gay

[lofty shell]

sheo protagonist would go fire

[pastel plank]

I think Lace already has developed as a character and there's not much to add to her development

[frosty light]

he grew from the ground where life began to sprout again near their corpses. well, corpse and robo-corpse

[light swan]

they don’t have to explore the past of lace they didn’t explore the oast of hornet

we knew all about hornets backstory and upbringing but there still more to be expanded

[pastel plank]

I honestly think this is the best idea, or a vassal

[light swan]

i trust there’s something that can still happen based on precedent and my personal tastes

[silent sand]

shamans are chaotic neutral

[golden turret]

Also I would say the third game would be getting rid of higher beings with the help of Mr mushroom. Since lace was just cut free from being a slave under a pale being she would probably be fed up with it wanting to get rid of it. Also we know Mr mushroom is extremely knowledgeable due to the squiggly line in the ending of silksong and hollow knight

[hardy tangle]

vessel?

imagine in the shaman game theres a vessel dressing up as a shaman

[hardy tangle]

i imagine shaman melee combat would be similar to tk

[pastel plank]

noo vassal

[hardy tangle]

their movement will be somthing to do with soul

and void

[pastel plank]

vassal similar to Sula

[frosty light]

vessel = vassal iirc

[pastel plank]

Shamans don't really have any direct connection to the void, tbh

[cunning geode]

well

[pastel plank]

No? Vessels are PK's children, and Sula is a vassal, as in "servant"

[light swan]

lace has an awesome arc, can continue to have an awesome arc, is a major character with stuff to explore, and is deeply attuned with silk and void

these make me think she has potential as a new protagonist

i trust team cherry to have completely new lore ideas and expansions we have no idea about rn and CANT know about because they can still completely add new information as long as it doesn’t contradict anything

[coarse leaf]

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-wait-silksong-seat-silksong-cute-silksong-fleas-gif-15439778005425867114

[pastel plank]

Honestly, we have 3 whole Lace fights, it's the only HK boss I recall that has so many boss fights

[hardy tangle]

they experiment with it, if it was direct it would be too similar to vessels

[frosty light]

for some reason you newgens cant grasp that if someone adds iirc to their message in this server that makes whatever they said true forever

[golden turret]

https://tenor.com/view/sherma-silksong-absolute-cinema-gif-774649724514166125

[pastel plank]

I feel like an entire Lace game would be way too much

[frosty light]

green prince zote

[pastel plank]

i said that the other day

[light swan]

i think it’s plausible and has enough potential to be good
thats it

[pastel plank]

ahahahhaha

[light swan]

i dont see much wrong with that

[pastel plank]

I'm just not sure where you got that from tbh

[astral dagger]

Oh
There's an act 3 btw

[light swan]

we get a lot of lace content sure why does that stop us from getting more? she still has a lot to offer

[pastel plank]

Not saying it's wrong, I just think overall it would be a bit excessive, it's not like there's not enough Lace screen time tbh

[frosty light]

the universes own source of knowledge and also god iirc

[astral dagger]

THE hollow knight meeting lace interaction MUST occur

[pastel plank]

it kinda does, but nobody cares about Lace, we have the ending to show off ahahaha

[light swan]

it’s excessive when there’s no point in more but lace still has a lot to offer

[golden turret]

And she can appear on like 6 other places, sinners road, blasted steps, start of act two In Grand gate, when she cuts off GM's arm, and the 2 by the void

[frosty light]

i disagree heavily actually though im not sure how well a sequel starring her would solve that

[astral dagger]

No????
We don't see them the entire game
They are confirmed alive bcs we see the vessel tho

[frosty light]

"..."
"Fuck you"
"..."
"Nvm they're chill"

[light swan]

she has a whole character arc to finish and another one to start

[pastel plank]

I don't really see what she would have to offer tbh. We already know her back story and have an explanation of what she's currectly trying to achieve, more or less, I don't see why we would need a separate game about her

[astral dagger]

👍 👍 👍

[pastel plank]

Precisely

[placid coyote]

no voice to cry suffering

[astral dagger]

Daddy issues vs Mommy issues

[silver nacelle]

@light swan, it finally dropped!

https://tenor.com/view/lost-lace-gif-8836209893747006983

[solemn lotus]

How’s everyone doing?

[golden turret]

With the rest of the void eating popcorn watching them

[pastel plank]

I'm talking about the SOTV, TK does encounter Lace, but...

[astral dagger]

So
The vessel basically

[light swan]

there’s always more to learn about her backstory, dont question the ability to add more lore because as long as it doesn’t contradict it’s possible

i’m mainly referring to her character arc tho because she’s finally free and sees the value in her own life, she’s a different person now and has more that can be fleshed out in a game about her

[astral dagger]

Thats
The vessel?

[weary gorge]

How do you fight garmond and Zaza, its the only thing i cant figure out before act 3

[frosty light]

so im curious how much is it all wishful thinking and how much do y'all actually think there'll be a third hollow knight game

[light swan]

nice !!

[pastel plank]

THE knight..?

[placid coyote]

act 3

[astral dagger]

I said THE hollow knight
Not the knight

[pastel plank]

Are you ragebaiting?

[light swan]

60% sure there will be another

[silver nacelle]

Now I can send this to shaman crest doubters /j.

[pastel plank]

ohhhhhhhhhh sorry my bad

[weary gorge]

Act 3 permanently locks you out and you can only fight lost garmond

[golden turret]

Have you completed 2 melodies?

[astral dagger]

https://hollowknight.wiki/w/The_Hollow_Knight

[weary gorge]

Everything but garmond and zaza

[solemn lotus]

Meet them a few times fight them at top of whispering vaults

[weary gorge]

They're just chilling at songclave

[golden turret]

Then you can't, if he's resting at songclave you're locked out of him until act 3

[frosty light]

"uhh yeah hornet and herrah are weavers and they were created by pk and rad's altenrate universe fusion actually 3 queens is canon now theres everbloom lore she knew about all along heres some other 25 vague allusions to moments in her past"

[weary gorge]

Wdym until act 3? You can fight them in act 3?

[golden turret]

Yeah... Let's just say without zaza...

[solemn lotus]

yeah let’s just say differently

[weary gorge]

I've done that fight, thats a different fight

[pastel plank]

I mean I'm not saying it's entirely impossible, the same way games about Zote and Quirrel are possible unless TC openly says "no", and even then there's some possibility, because they change their mind all the time. I'm mostly talking about how likely it is, and I personally feel like a Lace game wouldn't really work as a sequel or even the final of the series

[astral dagger]

Both THE hollow knight and the knight (aka the (Im)pure Vessel and THE vessel) share variations of one another's names to show the parallel's between em

[solemn lotus]

no you didn’t

[weary gorge]

Ive already gotten 100% im trying to get true 100% and have every fight

[golden turret]

It's still garmond

[pastel plank]

Why do you think THK should meet Lace?

[solemn lotus]

If you fought lost garmond how the hell is he at songclave?

[weary gorge]

Does that fill out the garmond and Zaza hunter entry?

[solemn lotus]

no

[astral dagger]

They can relate a ton

[golden turret]

Nope. But you don't need it for hunters momento

[weary gorge]

So am I just locked out of true 100% then

[solemn lotus]

There’s one for garmond and zaza and one for lost garmond

[light swan]

hornet was just the daughter of the pale king and herrah and works as a protector for hallownest

ok turns out her entire race fought against this silk mommy and fled and she was actually trained by vespa and knows all about the secrets of the universes and she was created as a weapon to finish silk mommy once and for all

[solemn lotus]

Lmao no garmond and zaza is not needed

[pastel plank]

I don't see how this would happen as of right now tbh, but there's a lot of room for speculations, not saying it's impossible

[lofty shell]

i imagine shaman platforming would use spells too
like
i don't think they made spells only for combat
