sk-discussion

[glossy star]

but there's this one streamer that took 26 attempts to beat her

[gloomy hill]

was I the only person who never used clawline or dash attacks? 😭

[storm badge]

she took me a few tries my first time

[glossy star]

BlueSR to be exact lol

[icy crow]

I also don't use dash attacks and Clawline offensively often

[grizzled turtle]

start using clawline and dash attacks

[timid plinth]

i dont use clawline ever

[grizzled turtle]

IT MAKES THE COMBAT SO MUCH MORE FUN

[icy crow]

Mount Fay: say that again

[grizzled turtle]

you're missing out 😭

[mint nymph]

I cant go 2 seconds without clawlining

[timid plinth]

i meant during fights

[storm badge]

it's like watching an angel clip its own wings...

[glossy star]

i think the boss that took me the most tries, ever, was grand mother silk... while cursed
41 attempts

[gloomy hill]

I am not lonely

[pure pine]

Chat is entering Sinner Road with 6 masks (7 bc Fractured Mask) and a Lvl 2 Needle safe

[grizzled turtle]

that works

[gloomy hill]

buy me a new copy of silksong, I ran out of gamepass

[icy crow]

Pharloom Bay will have a hidden boss named Plasmified Drowned Zango and he's 20x harder

[tawny fossil]

I did it , I finally silked the song

[mint nymph]

Only 30 hours?

[weary crystal]

Merry shawsmas

[glossy star]

ggs now go for true ending!!

[tawny fossil]

Man what an absolute glow up from the first game
I was never a much of a fan of og hollow so I didn't expect much from it , now silksong is like , one of my favorite Metroidvanias rn

The movement, the exploration, music , environments , bosses , specially the massive range of abilities and customization
I only did normal ending and there is still a lot of stuff I have to do in act2 but I'm definitely doing allat

Even tho I still haven't seen everything this game has to offer I give it a solid 9.4/10 that was really fun

[timid plinth]

silk the song more

[timid plinth]

merry christmas!!

[pure pine]

Damn, 36hrs, better than my run

[mint nymph]

Just to get thr normal ending

[grizzled turtle]

plasmified lost mucked haunted infected infested elder savage beastfly

[glossy star]

nice h

[pure pine]

69

[gloomy hill]

nice

[icy crow]

You forgot "pale"

[timid plinth]

could've been 2 hours faster

[mint nymph]

You guys are so immature 😭

[gloomy hill]

NO,

[grizzled turtle]

plasmified lost mucked haunted infected infested elder pale savage beastfly

[glossy star]

OUT

[pure pine]

No we're js crazy

[gloomy hill]

#sk-discussion and immature? impossible

[icy crow]

Perfection.

[tawny fossil]

I just wish the game gave me the completion percentage here not in post game

I really wanna know how much I did

[storm badge]

there's something you need to collect for that

[icy crow]

Act two isn't the end-game lol

[mint nymph]

We are in sk discussion...

[open dirge]

it's almost christmas, or it is, idk, it's 11:58 pm for me

[mint nymph]

Oh wait

[tawny fossil]

Ik I'm saying I wish I could see it in act 2

[open dirge]

i wish

[mint nymph]

Am I slow?

[open dirge]

i wish santa gives me sea of sorrow frfr

[mint nymph]

Sorry im supper sleep deprived

[timid plinth]

back in my day, it was called ss discussion

[icy crow]

Yeah, unfortunately you cannot. Can unlock percentage only in the last weavenest

[mint nymph]

I keep getting karmalita nightmares

[gloomy hill]

go to sleep imo

[grizzled turtle]

the real sea of sorrow is going to be the wait time

[storm badge]

50 down 2 to go 💪

[timid plinth]

sleep

[open dirge]

1 minute for me

[tawny fossil]

Can I use mods to unlock the percentage early ?

[mint nymph]

Less than 30 hours for 100% im dying are you god?

[glossy star]

no dont do that

[icy crow]

Nope. + It's better if you just do the other endings and begin act three anyway

[gloomy hill]

your mental health also affects your performance in game so imo go and sleep

[storm badge]

my first save took over 60, i knew what i was doing this time

[timid plinth]

merry christmas!!

[glossy star]

jesus its 3am here

[gloomy hill]

after the first playthrough sub 30hrs becomes really easy. The first playthrough is the hardest and lasts the longest too

[tribal verge]

I find it pathetic how two variants of the Silkshot are just buffed copies of existing tools (Straight Pin and Threefold Pin), then you got the laser beam that dissipates everything in its way. I love it.

[hoary valve]

someone pls help in sk help

[mint nymph]

Ohh twas your second playthroyhjr

[tawny fossil]

I beat the final boss with this

[trail holly]

sub 7 hours sister of the void🥹

[earnest drift]

please tell me this is a purposely bad build

[grizzled turtle]

what does poison + flea brew do again

[tawny fossil]

I found the lace fight kind harder tbh

Only 3 tried for GMS

[storm badge]

wdym it's peak

[earnest drift]

makes hornet emit poison and her needle attacks also do poison
one of the worst pollip synergies

[tawny fossil]

Nah Im totally comfortable with this for almost all boss fights

[earnest drift]

hitting enemies with a poison flea brew needle will most likely result in a total of 6 extra dmg at the end due to poison not stacking

[mint nymph]

I dont have that, what is that think on the top slot that looks like a

Can't say that nvm

[earnest drift]

flintslate and pollip pouch however is the second worst pollip synergy in the game

[timid plinth]

ts so tuff bro

[soft bear]

wasup gamers, i just wanted to say that it took me over three months to notice that the wisp thicket/whiteward ost is not present in the spotify or any other version of the silksong ost album

hope everyone have a jolly shawmas

[timid plinth]

merry christmas!!

[mint nymph]

The game has been out for onlt 3 months

[sage glade]

just finished act 1, pretty fun exploring all the trailer places from several years ago, wondering how far coral forest will be

[icy crow]

(Does he know?)

[timid plinth]

[tawny fossil]

I think I only got 2 needle upgrades

[soft bear]

talk about time

[tawny fossil]

Did got that one in the saloon

[glossy star]

silksong's release might've been one of the best weeks of my entire lifetime

[sage glade]

it is a game not a week

[mint nymph]

Guys it took me like 2 years to realize that you can actually fight shakra in the 3rd act

[earnest drift]

you cannot

[gloomy hill]

you can't in A3

[glossy star]

im so glad it resigned right before it released

[timid plinth]

ikr

[sage glade]

who is shakar

[mint nymph]

I meand second

Sorry so tired

[timid plinth]

whos sexon

[soft bear]

same, do you have a favorite area?

[tawny fossil]

And I kinda needed to use one of the beast shards I was really in shard debt

[icy crow]

You're telling us you finished act one yet you haven't found Shakra yet ?

[mint nymph]

Happy birthday

[gloomy hill]

go sleep

[glossy star]

i really like this area

[sage glade]

I'm playing on different language

[icy crow]

It's the cartographer

[eternal horizon]

[sage glade]

cart?

ok i guess

[gusty urchin]

wait

[icy crow]

The one that sells you the maps

[gusty urchin]

NOOOO I GOT SPOILED BY THE MAP

[mint nymph]

Screw the abyss i cant complete my journal because of those big void turtles that spit out flying leaches

[timid plinth]

that lady that sings and sells you maps

[gusty urchin]

😭 i only have 66% completion

[sage glade]

ohh you are talking about marissa

[eternal horizon]

Should I go to act 2 through sinners road or getting judgement?

[exotic dome]

https://tenor.com/view/trobbio-hollow-knight-silksong-never-forget-who-was-there-for-u-at-ur-lowest-green-gif-10038706922124382739

[tiny minnow]

thats act 4 shit dude

it's not at all relevant to you

[gusty urchin]

tf is verdania

[tiny minnow]

it changes a shit ton and i mean SHEEEEET ton

[glossy star]

i just filled up my spool with sylphsong then spammed silk skills on them

[icy crow]

Depends which end boss is easier for you

[gusty urchin]

WDYM THERES AN ACT 4 LMFAOOOO

[exotic dome]

its a fake map

[tiny minnow]

its where shermia does a bit magic

[glossy star]

with volt filament too ofc

[icy crow]

Act three exclusive - do not bother

[mint nymph]

The sherma ending?

[soft bear]

thanks john murder drone

[timid plinth]

the blasted steps route is easier but if you are looking forward for a reward, you could go to the sinners road route

[gusty urchin]

lk what crest do yall main. I might be using one of the worst ones but this is my first time ever looking at anything silksong related bc ive been avoiding spoilers. I main reaper's.

[timid plinth]

there's a secret wall you need to find

[gusty urchin]

that boss is quite fun

[mortal dagger]

reaper is the weakest but it could be the best for you, just run what you enjoy and prefer

[icy crow]

Iirc Sinner's Road route makes getting Clawline easier?

[timid plinth]

i use hunter and beast

[gusty urchin]

i had to look up how to find bilewater and putrified ducts T_T

[mint nymph]

I dont think hes supposed to be there

[gusty urchin]

ascend ascend ascend the citadel with gorb

[tiny minnow]

no thats just act 4

[glossy star]

used mostly wanderer's crest in my first playthrough but once i tried hunters again i never went back

[mint nymph]

You need psychiatric help

[open dirge]

hunter's

[timid plinth]

i think so

[sage glade]

marmu returns in ss? exciting

[timid plinth]

what i do

[tiny minnow]

is this gorb SLANDER

[balmy fog]

Played the game

[icy crow]

Gorb is just a dying memory

[timid plinth]

makes sense

[sudden inlet]

run this if you wanna be insane

[gloomy hill]

Hunter

[glossy star]

hunter crests pogo is just so good for movement

[normal tulip]

WITCH

[timid plinth]

beast pogo has more movement

[gloomy hill]

take off scuttlebrace for weighted belt imo

[glossy star]

i should try scuttlebrace more

[icy crow]

Hunter Crest focus gaming

[tiny minnow]

tell me, did Gorb do anything bad by killing lace? herald was right by force projecting ghost into silksong to take over

[sudden inlet]

scuttlebrace is my best in slot

id replace silkspeed first

[timid plinth]

no dice/10

[icy crow]

It makes you go spinny spinny though

[gloomy hill]

Then replace it for Weighted Belt

[normal tulip]

not witch/10

[glossy star]

convince me to start using scuttlebrace as if your life depended on it

[sudden inlet]

i have but one answer to that

https://tenor.com/view/hornet-crawling-bug-bug-crawl-bug-crawling-gif-9560397700551080432

[icy crow]

Isn't Wanderer the shortest pogo of all

[ancient hornet]

yeah but it’s basically just faster reaper, the range doesn’t really matter

[sudden inlet]

the best pogo is reaper if you're looking for height gain

[tiny minnow]

Yeah and I still have muscle memory from HK

[gloomy hill]

No, you can’t side pogo with it

[sudden inlet]

its also the easiest to use

[glossy star]

i probably tried scuttlebrace like ONCE just to see the silly animation and thats it

[sudden inlet]

architect pogo is a modified hunter pogo

[earnest drift]

i love this build but i'd have weighted belt instead of scuttlebrace

[sudden inlet]

you cant convince me otherwise

[ancient hornet]

oh right
(I don’t use reaper often)

[timid plinth]

architect pogo is doodoo

[icy crow]

Hunter still peak because no-damage reward

[sage glade]

architect is suck

[gloomy hill]

It’s one of the things I miss from HK

[tiny minnow]

i wonder how people play arhitects crest

[sudden inlet]

its interesting you can charge the architect pogo

[storm badge]

no witch crest enjoyers in chat...

[sudden inlet]

beast is crazy for damage output

[glossy star]

ikr

[gusty urchin]

i never tried scuttlebrace

[ancient hornet]

architect pogo is like reaper and hunter had a child

[sudden inlet]

i like all crests

[gusty urchin]

this is so cursed wth LOL

[gloomy hill]

There are some really good architect builds that are very different from the what you’d assume the normal architect player to play like. I like to call them Needletect builds

[glossy star]

• she crawls up walls lol

[earnest drift]

i dislike how this overrides down dash, why couldn't they bind it to up + dash

[gloomy hill]

I like witch I just don’t use it

[tiny minnow]

I dont want to go through getting impaled and half of bile water

[sudden inlet]

up dash would've been cool

i do agree with that

[inland wind]

She is half spider afterall

[glossy star]

thats called jumping

[timid plinth]

they use the needle, their tools, and needle strikes

[gloomy hill]

Balancing issues

[sudden inlet]

yeah

[earnest drift]

no i mean press up + dash to use scuttlebrace
so you can still use it and down dash

[sudden inlet]

ye

[tiny minnow]

yeah but thats kinda counterintuitive

i get finishing the bosses off

[gloomy hill]

It’s fun

[glossy star]

wait you still active scuttlebrace if you downdash MID air?

[tiny minnow]

isnt the point to launch half of pharlooms weapons at once?

[sudden inlet]

yes

[ancient hornet]

yeah

[earnest drift]

yes

[gloomy hill]

@dusky patio enlighten him on Drillitect

[gloomy hill]

Yeah but that’s boring af

[glossy star]

i just tested and wthhh thats so cool

[timid plinth]

she spins like a saw

[storm badge]

ngl that's one of the things i like most about the crest

[ancient hornet]

I love beast crest pogo ngl
it’s quite fun once you get used to it

[sudden inlet]

witch crest is actually insane if used right

[ancient hornet]

yeah

[tawny fossil]

Reaper downslash my beloved

[sudden inlet]

claw mirrors go crazy

[ancient hornet]

I despise reaper downslash tbh (dunno why)

[timid plinth]

full focus hunter with barbed bracelet flintslate flea brew taunt still better

[sudden inlet]

i have a set up for my witch crest, hang on

[trail holly]

claw mirrors

[gloomy hill]

Despite that witch still has low dps #buffwitch

[glossy star]

ong

[trail holly]

can we buff witch fr tho

only the bind does big bucks

[glossy star]

text team cherry, maybe if you ask nicely

[gusty urchin]

i might look around the map forr a new crest. Ik theres more, the only ones i have are awakened hunter, reaper, wanderer, beast, and shaman.

[tawny fossil]

Like a what

[gloomy hill]

Still outclassed by every crest except reaper

[timid plinth]

you are missing two

[trail holly]

as a certified team cherry tester i can confirm thst witch crest is a NEEDED crest for sea of sorrow!

[gusty urchin]

i was typing for years bc i kind of forgot i had dc open LOL

[tiny minnow]

and probably dont go here until youve done the game it wont do too much good, youve already spoilt acts 3-4 sooo

[storm badge]

i forgot about shaman crest

[gusty urchin]

shamans crest is peculiar

[urban robin]

The one item i could maybe see being required for sea of sorrow is the plasmium gland being used for something in lifeblood tower

[trail holly]

i love shaman crest

[cursive pagoda]

merry crima everyone

[urban robin]

Beyond the obvious movement stuff

[timid plinth]

merry christmas!!

[trail holly]

sorry bud im the tester here

[trail holly]

merry christmas

[tiny minnow]

im ready for sea of sorrows to give you a kid's patch and candy as a charm

[glossy star]

how do you get that item again? i only got it in my first playthrough

[urban robin]

Act 3 quest from zylotol

[tiny minnow]

or it'll be op as shit. No inbetween

[glossy star]

oh like you just grab it from his body

[tiny minnow]

what he dies?

[urban robin]

No you have to collect plasmified blood from plasmified enemies

[trail holly]

how did people even find out about silk and song

[glossy star]

sorry to tell you

[tiny minnow]

well whos gonna get my lifeblood NOW

[gloomy hill]

ew l*feblood

[urban robin]

I hope one of the sea of sorrow tools is some sort of fishing line upgrade for the clawline

Although that may be too similar to snitch pick

Clawline tool which drags the enemies to you instead

[timid plinth]

fishing simulator in silksong

[glossy star]

that would be sick

[gloomy hill]

just remove snitch pick

[gusty urchin]

can i get a hint for them, I dont want to use google to find things, as i have done this a couple times and it kind of ruins the experience by spoiling too much.

[glossy star]

no one will miss it anyway

[tiny minnow]

There was once a fisherman. Called Zote. He was on a boat. He tried fishing, caught one on a string. Fell off and lost his dink. Became drunk and started to drink. That's how he started to sing.

[urban robin]

90% of snitch pick haters take off the tool before the extra hit kills the enemy in front of them

[glossy star]

talk to 12th architect

[timid plinth]

twelfth architect
twisted bud

[gusty urchin]

alr ty

[sudden inlet]

my witch set up i like to use

[glossy star]

curvesickle underrated

[ancient mortar]

I've heard warding bell is good for witch, if you time it right you get extra damage on your bind

[crimson carbon]

what will the new creast be u think for the DLC sliksong

[sudden inlet]

yeah warding bell is good too

it also just saves you from stupid binds because you werent paying attention and that flying idiot is throwing a bell at you

[tiny minnow]

movement, so they can make a path of twain

[ancient mortar]

Alchemist probably. It seems to be something like zylotol under that tarp. Probably his master that he referenced finding the plasmium in salty waters.

[hollow path]

for christmas i want groal the great oiled up

[trail holly]

there is no new crest, as i am tester for team cherry certified

[sudden inlet]

the dlc is going to hit so hard

[tiny minnow]

chief he's always that

[trail holly]

NO crest, NO boss, NO balance patches, and we're nerfing witch

[glossy star]

im guessing we're getting exactly 3 tools, just so it still looks right on the menu lol

[sudden inlet]

i use that on my wanderer

wanderer is my favorite crest by far

[gloomy hill]

watch it either be so broken that it outclasses every other crests. OR it's gonna be worse than reaper

[urban robin]

Lobster trap red tool which is just act 3 snare setter substitute

[sudden inlet]

https://youtu.be/kNh3pUCfXLg heres a fight i uploaded from ps4 if you'd like to see it. i made a few bad mistakes in it, so dont mind that

[glossy star]

hell yeah

[ancient mortar]

I want it to have a bind that absolutely fucking sucks ass, like it heals nothing and spawns lifeseeds. In exchange you have perma plasmified state and a flukenest style spell alteration.

[glossy star]

imagine its like joni's blessing + hiveblood

[ancient mortar]

Also it needs 2 spell slots as we don't have one of those

[gloomy hill]

so it's garbage? assuming they fix the flukenest equivalent properly this time

[timid plinth]

what is a spell

[tiny minnow]

I do not "parry", I do not "throw tools", I do not "take off my wayward compass". I GO IN. And if the boss beats me up, I GO IN AGAIN!

[ancient mortar]

Flukenest only in that it changes how spells work

[urban robin]

Reaper should have had two silk skills

[glossy star]

silk skills

[silver salmon]

I hate sherma

[gloomy hill]

HK spells surely

[candid kayak]

I thought those silk skills were silk skills?

[glossy star]

i love this stupid monkey

[urban robin]

The plasmium crest just gives you vengeful spirit

[storm badge]

INSANE triple parry

[candid kayak]

since when are spells silk skills? aren't spells spells?

[tiny minnow]

Does the existance of silk skills infer the theoretical song skills?

[candid kayak]

needolin

[glossy star]

like the beastling call and elegy of the deep"? yes

[trail holly]

this is me

[tiny minnow]

I may be joking but I do agree, just deny failure and youll succeed. One day.

[candid kayak]

surely.

[sudden inlet]

you can blame the infinity mod

[glossy star]

this is advice for life

[icy crow]

If Team Cherry brings a volt themed area this DLC I'm paying extra $20 for it

[gusty urchin]

i feel like im the only one that feels like silksong is 5x harder than hk. yes i COMPLETELY acknowledge the argument that if i can 1st try radiance in hk that doesnt mean SHIT when it comes to sk, but i die to anything and everything, even though the mechanics are similar enough. For starters, wanderers crest is literally the knight with no spells faster speed and shorter range, and i still get cooked when i use that, second of all, silksong does not have the GOAT descending crutch. You also take double dmg. Hornet feels like she should be op, but feels underpowered because the enemies are more OP 😭 yes this IS a rant about my skill issue, id just like to know if anyone else actually agrees with me here

[candid kayak]

you mean Voltnest?

[storm badge]

voltnest is tiny tho

[icy crow]

Voltnest but it's a whopping whole area

Not just a small loop in a nest

[worthy lintel]

Silksong is definitely harder, but I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing, I like it even though I've struggled way more than I did in HK

[candid kayak]

I doubt it...

[storm badge]

ggs

[glossy star]

nah idk man i think voltnest belongs in sands of karak and only

[candid kayak]

cold take

[gusty urchin]

yes, i lowkey like the difficuly, im just curious what other ppl think

[icy crow]

Me when I rant about Silksong not having a downbash spell that gives you i-frames

[gusty urchin]

yes

precisely

[icy crow]

Get good

[glacial kelp]

i mean parry exists?

[candid kayak]

have you considered "Dodging"?

[sudden inlet]

cross stitch is the goat of silk skills

[tiny minnow]

double damage is a lifestyle

[icy crow]

They're going to add more areas than just Pharloom Bay so I can only hope

[tiny minnow]

youll ge tused to it

[gusty urchin]

lowkey crutch-stitch the goat

[tiny minnow]

have you considered parrying?

[gusty urchin]

i just dont use silk skills enough

[sudden inlet]

i started with silksong before hk so the double damage didnt really bother me

[gusty urchin]

i should lowkey try it

[glacial kelp]

anyway merry merrsmas to the foreign folk

[icy crow]

People are too used to cheesing bosses with stuff that gives i-frames it's funny asf

[candid kayak]

lmfao

[gloomy hill]

I think it needed to be harder, but not in the bs "more damage and more health for enemies" way, I mean proper difficulty, that really forces you to do everything you can to win

[gusty urchin]

yeah i like that

[tiny minnow]

did anyone see that one guy fight karmel by just parrying every attack

[candid kayak]

what is this madness? I have to use the movement keys!?!?

[sudden inlet]

its really not even that hard honestly

[glossy star]

yeah that was me

[tiny minnow]

that shit is just descending dark but harder

[candid kayak]

literally unplayable wtf

[gloomy hill]

artificial difficulty is boring af

[candid kayak]

break your arms, then it's real difficulty

[icy crow]

What!? You're telling me Silksong has more BALANCEMENT?

[glossy star]

pull your eyeballs out if you want real difficulty

[sudden inlet]

steel soul is incredible because you get shell satchel

[gusty urchin]

i dont rlly have an issue with pre act 3, thats basically what i dont like

[candid kayak]

I have to PLAY THE GAME!?!!?!
I CAN'T JUST SPAM THE IFRAMES BUTTON!?!?!

[sudden inlet]

guaranteed best in slot

[candid kayak]

the humble dice:

[verbal coyote]

fuck

[sudden inlet]

along with dice of course

[glossy star]

why not both

[candid kayak]

witch/shaman

[sudden inlet]

silk eater rn

[candid kayak]

I am going to save you a world of hurt

[icy crow]

"Why are you taking damage to First Sinner? Just use Descending ⬇️ Dark "

[hoary igloo]

the hornet

[inland wind]

Lowk the term “artificial difficulty” is used when people wanna complain about difficulty but don’t wanna sound like a bitch nowadays

[sudden inlet]

i first tried groal so i dont know this pain

[glossy star]

if bench discovered why bench not taken

[sudden inlet]

indeed

[eternal horizon]

[icy crow]

Did you not save at the hidden bench lol

[gloomy hill]

I think I have made it very clear I didn't find the game hard

[eternal horizon]

What did I just walked into

[candid kayak]

1. you've turned off map pins
2. use the bench

[gusty urchin]

silksong is madness, youre telling me i have to MOVE, DODGE, and GIT GUD, instead of mashing buttons? WHATTTTTTT

[hoary igloo]

tip: uninstall and never go back before you experience ts

[inland wind]

Not saying you are that person, just that the term is vague as hell

[gusty urchin]

imagien you could just

[sudden inlet]

honestly hk is too easy

[candid kayak]

:O

[gusty urchin]

run from any boss

[gusty urchin]

like, new silk skill obtained, common sense

[gloomy hill]

what I did look for is attack complexity, combos, variations, enemy synergy things like that are what I'd call real difficulty

buffing the enemies to do more damage and have more health should be secondary, not the main reason they are difficult

[candid kayak]

I mean technically it's possible to like, dreamgate/beastling call

[icy crow]

Cannot run when Team Cherry purposefully locks you in a boss room

[gloomy hill]

not possible you are active in #sk-discussion, which means you don't have common sense

[gusty urchin]

imagine the knight could shade dash out

[candid kayak]

LOL

[sudden inlet]

silksong has perfect difficulty imo

[icy crow]

Doesn't happen to Plasmified Zango though lmfao

[gusty urchin]

fair point mb

[candid kayak]

you can run from a bunch of fights

[chrome folio]

the only real threat here is Marcoth and Radiance

[gusty urchin]

thats a boss? hes so tanky i didnt know he was mortal LOL

[glossy star]

this is as far as i could get and i'd rather finish another 4 112% steel soul runs than to finish this

[sudden inlet]

thats good work

[icy crow]

Supposed to be but he's just like the Soul Master treatment

[gusty urchin]

i see

[icy crow]

Is a boss, doesn't look like one, think he's part of the team

Ends up sucking ass at the end

[sudden inlet]

i havent gotten all achievements for hk

i should, but i just dont find it as engaging since i played silksong first. which was a massive misplay on my part

[glossy star]

woah radiant HoG but not all achievements? thats rare

[sudden inlet]

i beat steel soul act 2 first try and then died doing the grind to act 3

[icy crow]

Considering the mask balancement is shit definitely

[sudden inlet]

second steel soul was lost on the final act 3 boss

[gusty urchin]

my dumb ass always forgets about beastling call

[sudden inlet]

then my third was win

[icy crow]

What do you mean I can only get one mask in acts one and three and all the rest in two

[glossy star]

hall of gods

[gusty urchin]

ive forgotten to use it like 10 times in a row already

[candid kayak]

pig that one-shots you

[sudden inlet]

it was the final phase of her fight too

[glossy star]

oh wow thats terrible

[gloomy hill]

I also have RadHoG but not all achievement, cause I don't wanna save nailsmith

[sudden inlet]

i was probably like 4 hits away

[plucky stag]

you can just say lost lace

[balmy wave]

Merry Christmas silksong players

[plucky stag]

but dang, did the nerves get you?

[candid kayak]

augh

[sudden inlet]

right yeah. so use to hiding name for spoilers

[sudden inlet]

Merry Christmas!

[plucky stag]

merry christmas to all who celebrate

[icy crow]

Is Mister Mushroom more convenient to find around Pharloom or is his spots even more obscure

[sudden inlet]

but i forgot people in here are gamers that can actually beat things

[glossy star]

get jolly

[thick parcel]

what does crafting kit even do

[glossy star]

its really intuitive

[glossy star]

increase tool dmg

[candid kayak]

should've read the words
increases tool damage

[plucky stag]

this is not the channel to do that

[sudden inlet]

hear me out

[thick parcel]

you saved my life

[sudden inlet]

sawtooth circlet

[gloomy hill]

more tools

[plucky stag]

everyone pretty much just assumes you 100%'d the game by the time you're regularly chatting here

[icy crow]

You mean the text vaguely gives away his spots?

[inland wind]

I agree

[sudden inlet]

good to know

[candid kayak]

btw your inventory has words and descriptions in it

[candid kayak]

no that's tool pouch

[gloomy hill]

right

[sudden inlet]

oh fr? man that would've been good to know

too bad i cant read or make the logical decision to look it up if im confused

[glossy star]

yeah! its actually pretty clear what the text means if you think about it enough

[candid kayak]

lmfao

[icy crow]

Me when I'm playing a game that is 76.8% filled with dialogue and yet I don't read it

[candid kayak]

looking things up is usually pointless

[inland wind]

I wonder how many people didn’t find out there’s act 3 in Silksong after the base ending

[thick parcel]

mb must be annoying when someone comes in here to ask ingame questions because they dont care enough to use the proper channel

[glossy star]

about 4 people

[sudden inlet]

im kinda sad about losing the snare setter for act 3

[icy crow]

They should find out eventually

[candid kayak]

oh where do I go for this wish
the wish: "Courier Pill was last seen in lower Greymoor"

[sudden inlet]

its a doodoo tool, but laying down landmines fills me with intense joy

[young cairn]

Marry Christmas 🎄!!!!!

[candid kayak]

"WHERE DO I GO!?!?!"

[plucky stag]

that's alright; it's also not uncommon to see people try to warn newcomers that nobody spoils things in this channel

[glacial kelp]

this is a ts pmo icl frfr moment

[plucky stag]

i've literally been chatting in here near daily since i saw the knight come back to rescue his sister in the void

[sudden inlet]

go to the inn where you can buy alcohol

[glossy star]

THIS or when they ask "what do i do with this item" like you wont figure it out in a moment by just playing the fucking game

[boreal viper]

Merry Christmas

[icy crow]

I'm in another server where this question happens often

"Um... guys? What is a ""hybrid"" weapon?"

• "Hans literally told you. Read the fucking dialogue"

[lavish snow]

Taking a detour from the lore channel bc it is dead hello everyone

[candid kayak]

bonus points for sending a screenshot of the wish in the menu, while you also fail to notice the words on the right saying where to go

[sudden inlet]

to the left where the cage is theres a track spot

[glacial kelp]

what is a hybrid weapon

[icy crow]

A weapon that has both offensive and defensive capabilities and affixes

[boreal viper]

hello

[sudden inlet]

guys i skipped the tutorial to learn how to bind and now im gonna die what do i do

[boreal viper]

J

[plucky stag]

i just saw the true ending cutscene as basically ghost telling hornet "hey sis, next time call me for backup before you dive into the void"

[sudden inlet]

true ending cutscene was amazing

[lavish snow]

Genuinely how the hell

[candid kayak]

yeah sorry the bind ability doesn't get added to your inventory if you didn't do it

[icy crow]

Bro looked at her and thought "oh hey it is you"

[sudden inlet]

damn

[glossy star]

more like this:
i just saw the true ending cutscene as basically ghost telling hornet " "

[sudden inlet]

lmao

yeah he did say that

[candid kayak]

hornet, shocked, passes out

[plucky stag]

i do have my reaction captured on video, and i often rewatch that snippet from time to time

[lavish snow]

looks in disappointment seeing the lifeblood oozing

[glossy star]

damn thats so cool i wish i had mine

[storm badge]

ghost gendering spotted

[candid kayak]

the knight judging hornet for using cheese strats

[sudden inlet]

mine was a silent stare of shock

[lavish snow]

Mmh

[plucky stag]

i was in the middle of a sentence when i went "oh, oh! it's the knight! it's the knight!"

[sudden inlet]

they*

[icy crow]

Zoteboat looks peak man

These area names are INSANE!!
||The Sea|| ||Dusty Dunes|| ||The Chasm|| ||Frozen Hill|| ||Deep Cliff||

[candid kayak]

they'm

[plucky stag]

basically i was embodying this meme in that moment

https://tenor.com/view/thats-it-gif-22165105

[lavish snow]

Mine was more

[glossy star]

do yall think we'll ever get to meet the other kingdoms mentioned in the cradle?
Blackbarrens, Sandsea Wastes, City of Steel..

[sudden inlet]

only words i said was "wait isnt that..." and then silence

[icy crow]

Those are more area names than kingdoms

[lavish snow]

Yes for sure city of steel or something similar

[sudden inlet]

the lace and hornet scene at the end after that was cute

[icy crow]

Sandsea Wastes might just be the Howling Cliffs equivalent of Pharloom honestly

[plucky stag]

i feel the other kingdoms may appear in future games tc makes; mentioning them in passing is a great and simple way to worldbuild

[lavish snow]

I mean in this dlc we getting lifeblood spire and lab

[sudden inlet]

and then mister mushroom

[glossy star]

TO BE CONTINUED

[candid kayak]

I strongly doubt any of the listed locations are connected to pharloom

[plucky stag]

it's like me writing a story set in canada and then having the characters talk about the time they traveled to australia in passing

[sudden inlet]

i do like that Hornet just understands mister mushroom

whereas ghost had to get crunk to even intrepret him

[icy crow]

Zoteboat will take place in Blackbarrens it's confirmed

[plucky stag]

all i'm doing is just establishing that australia is a place that exists in the world despite it not being the setting or being important to the story otherwise

[glossy star]

well she said that she speaks a lot of languages

[lavish snow]

And yay more lifeblood🤤

[candid kayak]

lifeblood meth lab

[lavish snow]

FINALLY

[icy crow]

What's interesting is that Hornet's dialogue indicates she already knew the Herald

[glossy star]

waltuh

[sudden inlet]

indeed she did

[candid kayak]

https://tenor.com/view/jesse-blueman-why-are-you-blue-radioactive-glowing-blue-gif-7961548304504204931

[lavish snow]

Who doesn’t know Mr mushroom

[glossy star]

she must've seen his ass talking to himself in hallownest

[sudden inlet]

steel soul background looks so good

[icy crow]

Lifeblood overdose

[lavish snow]

Is that not true ending

[cursive pagoda]

lost lace or radiance ost

[lavish snow]

Mmm funny buttterfly

[candid kayak]

that's the steel menu theme

[gloomy hill]

Rad

[glossy star]

it does but i dont like the ambience

[plucky stag]

isn't true ending surface

[candid kayak]

true ending menu is surface yeah

[lavish snow]

Mb

[plucky stag]

implying that hornet and lace eventually leave pharloom altogether for parts unknown

[sudden inlet]

surface is true ending

but when you get true ending, Lace's pin gets placed next to Hornet's needle

[gloomy hill]

I hope lace died on the way out

[icy crow]

Third game might be Silksong 2

[glossy star]

surface is my favorite menu cuz of the wind ambiance

[sudden inlet]

i think its cute

[lavish snow]

I assumed true ending bc both pin and needle smth smth gay

[glossy star]

smth smth gay

[plucky stag]

i believe the pin joins the needle in all the themes after you get true ending

[sudden inlet]

nah i want a Hollow Knight where the main character is a fresh hatchling from a Light deity and have to grow and fight the abyss

[lavish snow]

Ohh

[sudden inlet]

Hollow Knight: Lightsoul

[icy crow]

Lace's pin after the true ending is pretty much indicative they're on good terms now

[icy crow]

Hollow Knight: Steeldome

[sudden inlet]

theres also this ending which left me horrified

[lavish snow]

We need an ending w a shakra ring

[sudden inlet]

you ever see the cut ending where you dont bind gms?

[plucky stag]

i have, and i honestly believe they could have repurposed it in the final game

[sudden inlet]

its crazy

[plucky stag]

make the ending of the gms fight a quicktime event, and if you don't bind gms in time she'll instead bind you and you get that ending

[gloomy hill]

to indicate shakra is dead

[sharp slate]

did 2 more pantheon of pharlooms today, 1 3 hit 1 5 hit :/ not best but im happy second one wasnt worse from fatigue

[lavish snow]

Neither lace nor hornet die so why

[glossy star]

died protecting bellhart, true W

[sharp slate]

Honestly Shakra should be dead in general i never want to fight her again

[cursive pagoda]

whole ass kingdom cooked

[sudden inlet]

this is true ending screen

[gloomy hill]

Lace should die too

[sudden inlet]

the ambience for this is nice

[earnest drift]

i was so shocked to see their pins like that

[storm badge]

real, i thought it was sick as hell that lace's pin stays across all screens

[earnest drift]

also apparently someone who hated lace was arguing that this could've been seth's pin

[lavish snow]

Ok you can see why I thought

[gloomy hill]

😭

[sudden inlet]

ye

[earnest drift]

so in character for lace to permanently alter the menu screen

such a spotlight hog

[candid kayak]

in complete and utter denial

[icy crow]

Adam T. Cherry just called me and confirmed me the third game will be Steeldome and you'll play as Lace

[solemn lotus]

Random Scug time

[sudden inlet]

"sibling wtf you doin here like fr lmao"

[inland wind]

Little do they know I have not even touched silksong and my knowledge of the game comes from seeing spoilers in this chat

[marble swift]

Merry Christmas skong community 🙏

[gloomy hill]

Scug seeing horror's beyond it's comprehension

well we went from the knight to hornet and lace is the hornet equivalent so
checks out

[silk iris]

the gift has arrived, I am here 😎

[sudden inlet]

also F's in chat for Garmond

Help my chonky ahh cat is trying to crush me with his sheer bulk aaaa

[earnest drift]

L should've just lived like lace

[sudden inlet]

that impossiroll from trobbio was fiending

[sharp slate]

This is the first time in all of my attempts i have been hit to his walk forward

[icy crow]

Garmond died as a warrior, Shakra's master died in an aura farming spot

[sharp slate]

i wish i had crossstitch so badly but i need sharpdart for crawfather/craw arena 😭

[lavish snow]

Wtf does printer react mean

[sharp slate]

Hello!

[earnest drift]

and mort and benjin and crull and loam all died because they suck

[inland wind]

Fax Machine -> facts

[sudden inlet]

does anyone else just really like the design for gms? how her body is a massive spool and her legs are giant sewing needles

[ivory skiff]

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it

[glossy star]

she bad tho

[lavish snow]

Ok but as shakra said. Her dying naturally just means she was never defeated therefore the goat

[icy crow]

It's funny that the true ending could potentially mean that Pharloom becomes a monarchless kingdom and so it becomes a free real estate realm

[glossy star]

there's people who dont?

[lavish snow]

Better than the dumbass elder

[glossy star]

genuine question

[gloomy hill]

it means I am putting Second Sentinel in a printer

[earnest drift]

would all the bugs return to base instinct like pre-wyrm hallownest

[lavish snow]

To hang on the wall hooray!!

[sudden inlet]

i think they still had their own laws and order didnt they?

[icy crow]

Doubt it but the kingdom would definitely have no government lmao

[earnest drift]

actually how does the free will thing work again i forgor

[gloomy hill]

yes, a flat, dead version of Second Sentinel to hand on your wall

[unreal kite]

merry christmas chat /srs

[earnest drift]

the weavers and conductors are all gone so therefore the new monarch should be the heir to queen grand mother silk
lace is the new ruler of pharloom

[ivory skiff]

It's not clear for pharloom, but I think their sentience is free from a higher being

[lavish snow]

ah just like your sisters lace. Free will is a thing you forgot

[icy crow]

But what if Lace does not stay?

[lavish snow]

Technical sisters

[earnest drift]

then uh
i guess that one conductor is still alive

[ivory skiff]

Alternatively it could be from the bell shrines as they seem to function similarly to pk's beacon in the sense that they draw bugs in like we see with songclave

[weary hatch]

Lace cant be a new ruler for character developmet purposes

[lavish snow]

Nah make it zylotal he just like me fr

[glossy star]

that bro dead

[earnest drift]

her first order of business is to sacrifice 1 pilgrim to her every week

[ivory skiff]

No he dies in act 3

[lavish snow]

Reanimate him

[sharp slate]

that would be horrible

[earnest drift]

he does??? i never knew

[sudden inlet]

anyone else notice that during Phantom's boss fight, she responds to your inputs like Lace does?

[ivory skiff]

A rock falls on him I think

[icy crow]

Ballador? He's presumably dead in act three

[gloomy hill]

silksong bosses do not input read iirc

[glossy star]

yeah his cage thing is broken down

[sudden inlet]

she didnt read your inputs

[earnest drift]

damn i never saw that

[inland wind]

It’s not merry OR jolly, another year passes by and I grow old and frail

[solemn lotus]

Why is Micolash such a pain in the ass?

[candid kayak]

but they can react to your position

[sudden inlet]

she responds to your inputs. lace sees you heal in the air, she gonna backflip kick your teeth out

[solemn lotus]

It’s the most jolliest time of the year

[icy crow]

At least Hallownest still has White Lady around

[glossy star]

oh my god its been like 3 years since i last saw this image

[sudden inlet]

also tries to predict for those parries

[eternal horizon]

Well that was close

[gloomy hill]

bro fuck that guy, most bs spell in the game and is just an ass hole

[gloomy hill]

[lavish snow]

Re make groal and turn him leader

He is great as they say

[sudden inlet]

oh ye groal for president 100%

[ivory skiff]

True

[solemn lotus]

Fuck micolash specifically

[icy crow]

Bro would literally massacre the entirety of Pharloom due to his hate

[inland wind]

Welcome to Bilewater

[lavish snow]

Deserved to be completely fair

[sudden inlet]

anyone ever throw the voltvessel bolas into his mouth? funniest shit i've ever seen

[gloomy hill]

Micolash, Host of the Nightmare? more like Micolash, Bitch of the Nightmare

[icy crow]

I wonder how would Bilewater look like before the Muck™

[glossy star]

WHAT you can do that?

[sudden inlet]

yep and the pimpillo

[lavish snow]

I hope we see someday

[solemn lotus]

Pale lake

[glossy star]

i thought it was just the pimpillo

[icy crow]

From the clean room it would probably be a waterfall cluster

[lavish snow]

But I assume similar to the pale lake and master death areas

[gloomy hill]

also boss after Micolash is pretty fun

[solemn lotus]

Nice to know

[lavish snow]

Y’all have to admit that bilewater theme is amazing

[solemn lotus]

Putrified ducts theme is better

[glossy star]

nyleth is the most beautiful theme imo

[inland wind]

Micolash, initiator of making you do a mad goose chase for 15 minutes just to one shot you at the final phase

[icy crow]

Sea of Sorrow DLC better bring more five areas

[lavish snow]

https://tenor.com/view/crying-one-piece-anime-gif-4502646032764566609

Seth theme

[glossy star]

it makes me wanna cry

[gloomy hill]

glhf, that area fucking sucks tho, also make a backup of your save after the next boss fight cause you can directly beat the game after it and it'll instantly put you in ng+ and you don't want thta

[sudden inlet]

honestly im losing my mind waiting for that dlc. i havent anticipated something this much since Deltarune chapter 2

[mortal bluff]

Does any character in Silksong use a Nail, or is it a tied to hallownest?

[candid kayak]

(they're talking about the music btw)

[solemn lotus]

It’s the second phase of micolash that gets me ngl

[lavish snow]

We get my favorite substance lore dw it’s gonna be good

[sudden inlet]

indeed

[icy crow]

Pharloom is tied to pins, Hornet being pretty much the only one who uses a different weapon

[glossy star]

i dont think so

[sudden inlet]

pharloom uses pins ye

[lavish snow]

Yes

[graceful oyster]

Sea of Sorrow
Tomorrow

[icy crow]

Pharloom Bay + five new areas. I need peak expanded

[sudden inlet]

Sorrow Tomorrow. i love how that sounds

SORROW TOMORROW!!

[lavish snow]

Lifeblood spire is also one bc we see the lab

[echo cobalt]

[solemn lotus]

I hope SOS is just a really big ducts

[candid kayak]

pfft

[lavish snow]

It’s already begun oh lord

[icy crow]

Lifeblood Spire/Lab is tied to Pharloom Bay, it's a sub-area

[inland wind]

today

[graceful oyster]

Bilewater expansion

[candid kayak]

this is multiple days old

[timid plinth]

team cherry said the dlc is becoming too big so they are making a game called Hollow Knight: Sea of Sorrow

[candid kayak]

it began a while ago

[lavish snow]

[sudden inlet]

it would be really funny if SOS was a 2D mario water level and you collect coins like a crappy mobile game

[candid kayak]

many days old, rather

[glossy star]

Hollow Knight: Silksong: Sea of Sorrow

[icy crow]

They should bring the scrapped diving mechanic from the first game

[sudden inlet]

and she says Shaw every single time she grabs a coin

[inland wind]

I wonder if Shakra’s Master Quest might be the entrance to the DLC

I was weirded out how only thing out of that quest was low-key shitty ring by shakra

[lavish snow]

I hope we get that lifeblood thing creature both jn the abyss and godhome

[storm badge]

2026 was a typo, they meant to say 3026

[candid kayak]

Not-Last Dive

[sudden inlet]

honestly that would be sick

[glossy star]

if i had to guess it would be the blocked door besides shakra's spot in bilewater

[sudden inlet]

i want to swim like a jellyfish and just use her cloak to float around under water

[inland wind]

Like no thank you shakra, your weapon rings are doodoocaca 💔

[prime oak]

Is it worth playing the OG HK after SS?

[gusty urchin]

how does hornet take 1 damage from massive sawblade tungsten cube crushing and mauling her but takes 2 dmg from the ankle biter spiders in choral chambers wth

[icy crow]

Hollow Knight had a mechanic in early development where you could swim freely in liquid, so far a screenshot I've seen of the Knight swimming up. Would be awesome if that was available in Silksong

[lavish snow]

But poshanka

[sudden inlet]

but you can Poshanka with them

[gloomy hill]

yes

[solemn lotus]

Used to take 2 damage

[sudden inlet]

wrong message

[gusty urchin]

oh yeah the nerfs lol

[sudden inlet]

my bad

[gusty urchin]

poshanka

[graceful oyster]

Because environmental damage got nerfed into the ground

[prime oak]

Wow my phone fell in a bucket of water

[echo cobalt]

how does knight take 2 damage from radiance and hornet takes 2 damage from the spider in choral chambers

[inland wind]

and that’s a good thing

[solemn lotus]

SOS shadow drop

[inland wind]

I fucking hated cogwork core

[prime oak]

Is it different or samey

[icy crow]

These things are just to easy to avoid when you memorize their patterns

[gloomy hill]

different imo

[graceful oyster]

Don't agree

[sudden inlet]

cogwork core + beast crest

[solemn lotus]

I had a dream about SOS today

[lavish snow]

Loel is such a mean emote I love it

[gusty urchin]

like from a logical standpoint

[solemn lotus]

And what I saw shocked me

Keep in mind all my dreams are prophetic

[gusty urchin]

ik its a videogame, but this is a shitpost anyway

[icy crow]

Did you see a volt themed area

[lavish snow]

Did I enter and force feed you lifeblood

[echo cobalt]

did you see lace

[lavish snow]

K goodnight chat I must sleep

[echo cobalt]

goodnight bro

[solemn lotus]

SOS has hallownest in it

[sudden inlet]

night

[glossy star]

you dreamin too far

[solemn lotus]

I also created a tierlist of every boss I saw and fought in my dream

[inland wind]

you did, in fact you called CIA to low income neighborhoods in Citadel’s Underworks to plant Lifeblood for the locals

[warm olive]

What if every area in the game was replaced with putrified ducts

[icy crow]

Make everything be Whiteward

[sudden inlet]

spit squit dlc!!!

[lavish snow]

Yes

[storm badge]

the game would go from a 2 to a 10

[sudden inlet]

every enemy is now spit squit!

[icy crow]

Silksong Whiteward Mode

[warm olive]

New enemy
Primal spit squit

[icy crow]

Everything and everyone is themed after Whiteward

[elfin grove]

merry silksmas

[solemn lotus]

Did you know that TC originally made the whole game ducts but ducts was so nice it gave its land to other areas

[grizzled turtle]

dialogue difference is crazy

[echo cobalt]

Why is Toby fox's dog at 42 tier 😡

[glossy star]

...Breed...

[verbal coyote]

he wanted me to use architest so i can fuck him

[elfin grove]

how did bro get to dirtmouth

[grizzled turtle]

the humble architect mod

[icy crow]

...DAWN WILL BREAK...

[warm olive]

Bilewater

[echo cobalt]

wait lol i just realized

[gloomy hill]

oh yeah for the final boss, I got humbled very quickly yesterday
the hardest parts for me so far have been Amelia, Cleric Beast and Gascoigne simply cause I was new to the game, after that every boss only took 3-5 attempts, and now I have been absolutely destroyed by the final boss, this shit is hard 😭

[inland wind]

to be fair Needolin is basically forcing them to sing

[grizzled turtle]

sing what they're thinking

[solemn lotus]

I’m scared

[limber jungle]

this is why god put me on this planet

[gloomy hill]

have you played sekiro?

[solemn lotus]

no

[inland wind]

then again here’s this fucking theater kid, he does NOT need to sing or get stunned by Needolin but chooses to go out of his way to stop the fight and sing

[gusty urchin]

i dont rlly get why ppl hate on bilewater THIS much. i feel like the only annoying part is the backtracking and the bilewater equivalent of primal aspid that teleports around faster than soul tyrant and deals as much damage as the radiance

[inland wind]

The water is bile

[gloomy hill]

well, you are gonna get a taste of what Sekiro bosses look like, cause they put what should be a sekiro boss into Bloodborne

[storm badge]

the bater is wile

[fathom rapids]

Trobbio is just that good

[solemn lotus]

[gusty urchin]

thats a fair point but like sinners road has that too

[spark anchor]

I do not like the stilkin enemies

[limber jungle]

I did not need to see your feet

[sudden inlet]

i love Trobbio

[glacial kelp]

what the hell its gov

[gloomy hill]

oh and it's harder than most sekiro bosses cause now you have to dodge instead of parry them

[spark anchor]

You don’t know me

[gloomy hill]

glhf

[glacial kelp]

true who is this gov guy

[thin jewel]

How to upgrade curveclaw

[spark anchor]

Merry Christmas

[sudden inlet]

act 3 go to far fields to the target area with it equipped

[inland wind]

I think some bosses would straight up not be possible on some builds

[thin jewel]

What target area

[sudden inlet]

the one where the targets are hanging from the ceiling

[inland wind]

I am not beating prime Isshin with ds roll

[glossy star]

first entrance to the right when going up from the bellway

[glacial kelp]

and why do we have a mutual whats going on

[sudden inlet]

thank you

[gloomy hill]

it's bloodborne, ||Gehrman|| is very similar to Isshin in moveset and speed, obviously there are differences but still wtf 😭

[sudden inlet]

is that summoned savior?

he almost killed me

yeah

[glossy star]

never fought him cuz i was too scared to die

[glacial kelp]

do you really want it to be hard

[eternal horizon]

Wanderer crest mains anyone?

[grizzled turtle]

use plasmium

[sudden inlet]

yep right here

wanderer main since september 7th

[eternal horizon]

Eyy

[inland wind]

|| Gehrman?? || He’s mid difficulty at best, isshin probably killed me the most out of all fromsoft bosses excluding elden ring

[jolly meadow]

Listening to cogwork core with $200 headphones is a whole experience 🥹

[inland wind]

I had particularly hard time on eldenring DLC

[errant orchid]

rellana took me the longest out of the dlc fights suprisingly

[gloomy hill]

Isshin only took me an hour to beat, Gehrman is gonna take a while longer, but Bloodborne is also my first real soulsborne game, sekiro doesn't count

[jolly meadow]

Don’t you have to do multiple steel soul runs just to do multiple attempts?

[limber jungle]

yeah it sucks I haven't really seen anyway lose a run to this
I wish they made it absurdly hard for no reason

[eternal horizon]

I always pogo to kill everything and parry lmao

[solemn lotus]

Bloodborne is so peak

[inland wind]

Prime isshin or the sura ending isshin

[gloomy hill]

both

[jolly meadow]

Ohhhh you guys are saying that it’s too easy. Idk I’ve never made it that far

[eternal horizon]

I got to act 2 in 4 hours first playthrough

[inland wind]

ZAMN how you beat the prime isshin in like an hour??

[spark anchor]

Is it better to fight this with the flower or without

[sudden inlet]

nah i like the other pogos. only one i dont is beast

[gloomy hill]

and Inner Isshin took me like 2 hours cause of that stupid mortal draw

[errant orchid]

isshin was less attempts than the stupid monkey

[inland wind]

To me prime isshin picked me up by one hand and dragged me across the ground till I was canned meat

[gloomy hill]

skill /j I played nine sols before so I already learned most of the game's mechanics before even buying it

[limber jungle]

I despise the wanderer pogo its so bad in combat

[sudden inlet]

the wanderer pogo in combat flows extremely well for me

[eternal horizon]

Skill issue

[mortal dagger]

the starting mortal draw?

[errant orchid]

nine sols parry mechanics is so sick i need a sequel pronto

[gloomy hill]

that one can be outspaced, he can do it after that too

[gloomy hill]

hop on sekiro, it has even better combat imo

[solemn lotus]

Finally beat micolash

[gloomy hill]

he deserved it

[sudden inlet]

sekiro combat is cool

i wish more games had similar style

[tropic wedge]

Flea Crest Best Crest

https://tenor.com/view/sekiro-genshin-impact-lightning-reversal-genichiro-boss-fight-gif-5441192889485355409

[mortal dagger]

i mean both can be parried with umbrella

[errant orchid]

played sekiro way before nine sols but i like the variations of parries in nine sols

that being said sekiro has the best combat system oat

[limber jungle]

yeah sekiro is cool I like using the guns in that game or whatever idk never played it

[gloomy hill]

Umbrella is cheese smh

[mortal dagger]

but doing that for hitless inner isshin doesnt feel right

[sudden inlet]

i like Nightriegn a lot too

the dlc was fireeee

[eternal horizon]

My favorite crest so far:
1 wanderer
2 hunter
3 reaper
4 beast
I haven't gotten other crest

[gloomy hill]

the only reason I haven't played a lot of nightreign is cause I have no firends

[sudden inlet]

my crest picks go like

[errant orchid]

i still gotta lock in on the dlc but i saw the spider scorpions and alt f4’d immediately

[gloomy hill]

https://tenor.com/view/blood-borne-laser-amygdala-old-one-cosmic-horror-gif-17768929

[limber jungle]

my crest picks go whatever im feeling today fuck maining a single crest for all of eternity

[sudden inlet]

wanderer, hunter, witch, shaman, reaper, architect, beast

[gloomy hill]

I love when a part of my brain starts shooting lasers

[glacial kelp]

is there no like random queue for nightreign

[sudden inlet]

dreglord is so damn cool

[gloomy hill]

there are but it's way more fun with friends

[sudden inlet]

its a lot better with friends

[gloomy hill]

hop on souls games they are so peak

[sudden inlet]

randos are abhorrent

[glacial kelp]

pretty hard to get people into souls games if they arent from my experience

[gloomy hill]

reasons to play sekiro

https://tenor.com/view/sekiro-lightning-gif-25969949

[limber jungle]

I played ds1 remastered, aggro'd a npc by accident, got spawn camped by it for like 2 minutes because im an idiot, left to take a piss and forgot to play the game again

[sudden inlet]

https://youtu.be/-0dK17XFSWI?si=FDuWcGp841c6NRxR

[glacial kelp]

john silksong himself

[gloomy hill]

🔥

[errant orchid]

if you aren’t extremely bad at video games in general souls games are the best games

[gloomy hill]

no

[sudden inlet]

start with 2

[gloomy hill]

DS1 is kinda mid

[sudden inlet]

im kidding dont do that

[errant orchid]

go with sekiro or elden ring first imo

[gloomy hill]

NO. absolutely not 😭

[sudden inlet]

3 is a good start

[eternal horizon]

Is it just me or silksong is easier than HK1 since you can run here lol

[sudden inlet]

absolutely not

[errant orchid]

just you twin

[spark anchor]

I feel like im missing out on big things by not playing souls games

[graceful oyster]

Wrong server mb

[gloomy hill]

I started with Sekiro, because of personal preference but Sekiro won't give you a view on how souls games actually are cause it's insanely different

[glacial kelp]

is there such thing as a soulslite

[spare tangle]

Ds2 > Ds1 dont @ me

[limber jungle]

start with brazilian drug dealer 3: I opened a portal to hell in the favela trying to revive mit aia I need to close it

[spark anchor]

What would be considered a soulslite

[glacial kelp]

thats the question

[errant orchid]

yeah it was my first souls game and it’s quite different but it’s just so peak ❤️‍🔥

[hoary valve]

Why is my resolution in silksong not working? Like it's all the same except 50hz

[timid plinth]

do people play without camera shake

[errant orchid]

soulslike but like less 🙁

[nova agate]

whats up people 😎

[gloomy hill]

Elden Ring, currently is the best place to start, sekiro is also great but it's not very souls-like, it's kinda it's own thing

DS3 is also really great but it's better played after DS1

Bloodborne is a masterpiece, but it's the hardest to play, cause it's a PS4 exclusive

wrong reply

@sweet thistle ^

[nova agate]

hey guys, if i complete steel soul and complete the game in under 5 hours will i get both achievements

[gloomy hill]

Bloodborne PC port tmrw for sure

[timid plinth]

yes!

[sudden inlet]

i didnt really like bloodborne that much personally

[sudden inlet]

it had great combat. i just didnt feel the aesthetic

wasnt made for me i guess is what im saying

[errant orchid]

only souls game i haven’t played cause im scared

[gloomy hill]

I am very obsessed with lovecraftian settings

[errant orchid]

took me a month to get through the underground segment of elden ring with the ants cause i was scared

[stark kestrel]

double moorwing genuinely beating my ass rn

should i just skip them?

[sudden inlet]

the game is fantastic. i will not shit on it just because i didnt personally like it

[gloomy hill]

[sudden inlet]

i dont believe in the whole "i didnt like it so its bad" mentality. certain games just dont work for certain people and its okay

[gloomy hill]

that's completely fair

[marsh spoke]

every game I don't like is bad

[stark kestrel]

also should i skip the sisters splinters

[gloomy hill]

there are some controversial thing in Bloodborne, like the healing system, is just garbage

[stark kestrel]

cuz usually i use garama skip

[errant orchid]

agreed except e33

[gloomy hill]

sure why not

[sudden inlet]

okay we make exceptions

[stark kestrel]

i don't like base sister splinter so double would be the end of me

[errant orchid]

the big splint

[gloomy hill]

just get cross stitch

[errant orchid]

double adds could be tough

[candid kayak]

you mean double silk?

[sudden inlet]

i definitely do agree bloodborne needs a port

[gloomy hill]

please I need it 😭

sony

[candid kayak]

splinterbarks when I use the forbidden technique of "attacking upwards"

[stark kestrel]

?

[gloomy hill]

gimme bloodborne on pc and my life is yours

[quartz roost]

Earlier someone was doing this about lace, because they didn't like the LL fight

[gloomy hill]

go get cross stitch from double phantom and then fight Double Splinters

[errant orchid]

not liking ll is clinical

[gloomy hill]

I don't like LL

[stark kestrel]

but splinters is required right

[gloomy hill]

just skip it for now

[candid kayak]

no there's a skip

[quartz roost]

Because they didn't like LL they were hating on lace as a whole for like 2 hours

[limber jungle]

13% chance to happen in 2041

[stark kestrel]

true...

[sudden inlet]

LL is so much fun

[stark kestrel]

sister splinter sucked ass prenerf

[gloomy hill]

Sony remaking Last of Us 11 times but not releasing Bloodborne on pc

[quartz roost]

That chance is really high

[quartz roost]

Indeed

[errant orchid]

lost lace with the music cranked might just be the best fight in the game

[kindred pelican]

Not a single product on the planet appeals to everyone except food,water, and shelter so there is no reason for this mentality to begin with which is why you are completely right

[limber jungle]

LL gameplaywise is fine but its god awful in terms of story, void did NOT need to be in the game at all

[kindred pelican]

Yeah the void inclusion felt forced

[quartz roost]

I don't care for music that much. In my opinion the best boss in the game is funny singing ant Lady

[limber jungle]

I dont even get why hornet saved lace either, let that bitch die with her mother no one gaf about her

[errant orchid]

i liked act 3 story wise but im
not a huge fan of the whole “world becomes permanently more dark and dreary” i get enough of that bs of elden ring tho

[frosty kelp]

me 2

[kindred pelican]

Generational run ✌️

[stark kestrel]

fuuuck i almost killed moorwings
