fair then
erm

hey guys rate my mio fanart
ati canonically has hair coming out of her face
Me when the silksong discussion is actually mio discussion 
activate windows is back 🥹
What's shairpin
you dont waant to know
I don't play mio
well go fix that
shartpin 😭
Thanks Steve Jobless for putting both drunk driving and smoking Mio arts into the world
Your contribution will be remembered for ages to come
Welcome to sk disc
i should post drunk driving mio in the server too
Yes
yes
Coming back after some weeks, what the fuck is going on.
cristono ronldo brutally murders wayne rooney
This is a great gif
I can't find it, what's the "you can't talk about drunk driving here" text snippet?
Do you remember it?
Hey, is that mio game worth it?
Yes
Do you like platforming
If you like precision platforming and metroidvanias
Thats why i play hk
And good sci fi stories
Platforming in this game is vastly better than the platforming from either HK
I guess,
Let others talk about mio
"Actually I hate metroidvanias, they're never good, unlike Silksong"
Actually been thinking of buying it for s while
Objectively or subjectively?
Number one way to support the devs is word of mouth
Ummmm, I think subjectively it's objectively better
Unless the game gets overglazed
illusion is much worse in this regard lol
Then it must be fenomenal, because hks platforming is really good in my opinion
No but seriously, it's just that Mio actually has way more platforming and it's much more fluid
"Overglazing" when I have a 100% enjoyment rate from people who played the game via my word of mouth
There aren’t actually that much platforming in hk
Exactly
The only game that is truly being overglazed is GTA VI, that shit isn't even out yet and people say it'll be the best game ever.
i hope gta6 comes out and its only an 8/10 game
I think it will flop
Hot take i know
i do highly doubt that tbh
top 10 things that will never happen
if anything its going to make the top 10 most sold games instantly
Nine souls:60%combat 30% exploration,10% platforming
HK:35combat,35 exploration,30 platforming
Mio:50 exploration,30%platforming,20% combat
hmmm I might actually disagree
you know what it isnt going to flop too... a certain game that starts with the letter h... and is the third game of the main story...
It's overrated before it will even come out, so either it'll suck or be decent. It won't flop though, since people are dead set that it will definitely be good. 60% of the buyers will get it at release (in the first 2-3 weeks). It will presumably also crash the stores, but that's just annoying.
@graceful oyster peak analysis
I like how the platforming in hk is integrated in the platforming
yeah, good thing i dont care about the gta franchise 
Not me either
It will be Half Portal 1.
Not really in to the shooting franchise
Hk platforming is slow,sk platforming is fast and fluid, mio is even faster and fluid
I don't agree with those numbers no
like I think hk actually works out a lot in its platforming systems
Is the bosses good in mio?
unironically that might exactly be what half life 3 is
Sands of Karak are that, even if a bit too much for it to be my favourite area. Bilewater has a perfect balance imo.
There's not a single one I dislike
pretty much no misses
There are ones that are a little pointless but they're not unfun
there arent quite as many as in sk, so its more quality over quantity
If it doesn't have all the mechanics of modded Celeste could it possibly be a good platformer think about this
Then they proably have a sale from me in the future
Is it just now, or did this channel actually shift from crestslop, toolslop and bossslop to Mio, random ass gifs and whatever else?
peak
ignoring the fact that wp is better than anything in ss, I feel like tc accidentally made it so that the hk system is very tight and responsive with a lack of momentum based things and spell stalling
Gotta love a good boss
and that works reaaaally well when doing platforming stuff, esp when you start doing modded shit
i mean this is a natural thing that happens everywhere
The "fact" is VERY subjective though.
epic discord invite embed fail
I wouldn't say that, complaining is present very often.
Its the art of conversations
shrue
like despite silksong being newer and having more shit, I prefer mapping hk and I still have a lot of ideas, while im burnt the hell out on silksong I exhausted all my ideas that shit has nothing
Silksong removes animation canceling and honestly the game just feels worse because of it
Went from lame-discussion to peak-discussion
yeah hk has a better map design than sk imo
Silksong's bosses are even better than Hollow Knight's
I kinda agree tho
sk areas feel far too linear
Hk had me hooked like nothing before and nothing after
Guys you're never gonna believe this I think Mio's level design AND map design is better than both games
valid
I disagree with anything saying HK is better (in most aspects), it kinda just feels like nostalgia carrying.
I don’t believe
I don't think
Check it out for yourself I guess
perfect
Yeah i probably will
honestly yea
i think mio has a better map design than hk and sk, as for level design im undecided
By the way I have 850 hours across both HK games so this isn't a bias-born thing
leaning toward sk for that
i like forget anim cancelling was a concept, but it explains a fair bit actually
I should feel partial to HK/SS but I recognize that Mio does things better
well if someone wants to finance a hot tgirl i can review mio and fact check
Like what if you could cancel out of a harpoon and carry that momentum midair or some shit
that one detail about mios map is probably the best part of the game
One of the best
Maybe it is? Flaws become visible with experience and newer things are most often more interesting. This isn't any critique, but bias is always present.
see i see the vision but why would you ever want to midair cancel that when u can just go through with it and then dash
I know bias is always present but my point it it's not just inexperience
You can cancel animations though. Have you not seen the Witch + Hurtingmyearssaw thing?
What is ts even
Can you guys recommend a Metroidvania (other than Mio) as I can't find any decent ones? I've played HK, Silksong, Nine Sols (I still have to finish it) and Ori
Honestly the idea in my head was that it would carry momentum like in Celeste so you could pogo and go crazy far but TC would never program this
its called a spogo damn
MIO
Anyways, never played MIO or even watched the trailer, so idk what this discussion is even about.
Map design and level design
Undertale
not a metroidvania broskie
No uh
I mean that I have no clue what MIO is good at.
Other than Mio and Undertale😂
This is broke animation cancelling
It's good at that
Classics maybe
yeah how about metroid lol
Like metroid and stuff
-# ssssshhh
I should be allowed to trigger a silk spear midway between doing something else and instantly stall myself
Haven’t played them but they must have been good to name a franchise
Funnily enough my understanding is that the Metroid games are actually not that great lol
Okay, anyways, SS movement is one of the smoothest of most games I've played, I disagree.
Worth considering playing because they helped birth the genre but they won't be a life-changing experience
Totally agree
i havent played it yet but a lot of people like rain world
No, but when your out of options
I think:
-backtracking
-upgrades
-exploring
-references
-bosses
-enemies
-whatever else
RW is not a mvania
Recommend me one that isn't famous, because I don't like all the famous ones
Kinda the fundamentals
This feels flawed
ohhh i see the vision fuck yea
You are avoiding games because they're widely recognized as good?
Then what the fuck are you doing in the SILKSONG channel?
i think i would fucking despise momentum for the most part in tc games but
Idk, even i don’t know those niche games
animal well, the messenger, pseudoregalia
Only HK is my favourite
why not just browse the metroidvania genre on steam
Everything is popular to a certain extent, so I don't even think this person has a clear definition of popular. Like, does it need less than 1000 downloads?
I just saw someone get Faydown Cloak with the Plasmium Phial, Flintslate, and Fleabrew
Lone fungus
Flintslate carries.
theres no way ts is considered a metroidvania what
Nahhh
What? This seems pointless
Fuh ass starwars
shart war
Starwars but if it was sold on temu
I don't want to
Basically (almost) every good game has their own fanbase, so it is difficult to say something is "popular/unpopular".
Why tho
isn't it a souls like?
skill issue
Google is free you know...
idk but it was one of the top results when i searched metroidvania genre on steam
And anyway I don't have Steam
who considers it a metroidvania what

ah fair
Ok, then o makes sense
Is Bloodborne a metroidvania? I saw it being called as such.
my silk isn't song'ing
yeah im pretty sure its a souls like not a metroidvania
no its a souls game
My song isn’t silking
Don't you just love the people calling HK a souls like?
Bro who calls starwars a metroidvania
everything is a soulslike if you're bad enough
"Subnautica is a horror game" ass people do.
is subnautica not a horror game?
Subnautica really is one
i mean i don't play it but from what i've seen it can be unsettling
hollow-like should rly be a term at this point i feel like
sloplike
Not really, it isn't scary by design. The only scary thing is the realism and immersion. Also, Devs have stated this.
hk is a metroidvania tho
No way
so what you're saying is that it isn't made to be a horror game but it has some horror elements in it that scare people?
It would be a child genre
hk does a lot of its own stuff that so many other games have taken inspo from by now
ik i thought it was a simulator game at first to!
Hk really is à classic now
HK is a slop game
Isn’t HK about F1 racing
silksong is sequal slop
are there any examples of pogoing pre-hk?
It's a demo for Silksong
mario
oh lmao
i can't believe mario stole pogo'ing from HK

Its a intro interactable cutscene to sk
bro has early access to lace race
I remember having a harder time with hk tbh
oh wait i really hope nintendo lawyers don't see this. they'll patent pogo'ing
It's the trailer
ive never played mario so idk lol
neither have i
all i know is that u can kill goombas by jumping on them so
new super mario brothers for Wii is fire
Deep, big ocean with big creatures isn't inherently horror. That description could be equally applied to real life, with whales and such.
Really, you are never forced to run from the big bad. You just have a world that exists around you. If you make poor decisions, that world will (realistically) have you eaten.
Yeah
🔥
I have played like one or two mario games exempt mario cart
me played it when i was like 8
i mean... the ocean is quite terrifying irl
Same. How old are you?
Exactly, it is inherently scary, but not because of actual intended game design (specifically for horror).
atm 16 wbu?
15
fair.
Expecially when you have giant alien fish around you
This year
it's classed as horror on steam
the ocean isn’t really terrifying, it’s what could be in or come from the ocean
I think you are just built different
if ur under 18 u really shouldnt be revealing your age online anymore
its a safety matter at this point
Btw I love Demon Slayer
Steam Tags are made by the players. The literal devs of the game have said that Subnautica isn't horror.
same energy as saying: "i am not afraid of being alone in the dark... i'm afraid of not being alone"
Ohhhh
cough cough discord age verification
Naah
😔
to some people it is scary so horror is made from an opinion ig
tbf i didnt know about it after i made the name 😭
yea. for me, darkness itself isn’t scary, it’s what could be in there (I’ve read to many SCPs
)
i find dolls unsettling
I think I put that I'm an adult🫢
i don't like dolls.
same
same
LOL
Wtf
I think almost everyone thinks that
alright time for some skong discussion
Me included
You don't fear that you're alone, you fear that you are not alone.
Very funny tc made 3 architect variations and they all suck
forge daughter is peak silkshot idk what you're talking about
yeah i was kinda suprised it was something too 0_0
Thats more unsetteling than any horror game
What do you mean?
First Sinner>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> all bosses (no it's not)
Its a bit better straight pin that uses silk
clawline cheeses first sinner
first sinner is so overhyped
But it's one of the best
a Gun user doesn't concern himself with the opinion of losers
Nah its the best
What do you mean, it's just little Ghost and Hornet as muppets (with mouths at the mouth part of the face).
Also original better
first sinner is a glorified dream boss
the silkshot weaver is boring to use because people always pick it
the best fight is definitely lost hornet what yall on abt
i don't use weaver silkshot because its overused and i wanna be different
also i have no idea why they made the architect version
it literally does less damage than the forge daughter. has a chance of doing LESS damage. and has LESS CAPACITY
Get on my level, my game bugged and I can't get any silkshot because there is no 8th craft metal!
like is it PURPOSELY meant to be bad????
the first time i tried the silkshot in battle was during nyleth and it immediately threw me into the spikes so that is my (100% fair) impression of it
first sinner GOATED fight
Alternatives are straight pin that uses silk for a bit more damage and capacity and architect
It would be good if they just removed limited uses, since it removes the entire fucking point of using the silkshots in the first place.
I have only fought nyleth once
sad
the silkshots should be interchangable
nyleth lovely fight
yes please
seth stole all the difficulty
alright so this is a bit off-topic but i remember seeing someone send an image here of a crow saying "An IQ too green?" and i can't find this image anywhere
Interchangable, infinite uses (for silk), rebalanced damage (Architect>FD>Weaver)
anyone have it?
honestly?i don't think they should all need silk
Yeah so you can go to all 3 locations, learn how to modify, and then be able to swap like the volt vessels
the weaver silkshot requiring silk makes sense y'know its the "WEAVER"
-# i know its called silkshot i don't care
Having them use silk and not waste uses would fantastically give them an actual purpose.
hang that in the louvre
but the forge daughter should like idk maybe not require silk
if you break in ill do it
I hope we get more tools that can transform like Voltvessels
i love the idea but i could imagine a theoretical softlock where u cant get the architect silkshot because she dies
Where can I find Craftmetal
@still osprey in main wtfrick hi
infact. the forge daughter silkshot should have the fire aspect on it since its made in deep docks
Boo 👻
It is an old weaver tool so.
Using silk is in it's design. You can't modify that out
Leave the materials next to her corpse and ask forge daughter to make a second repair or some shit.
Or you know, she just doesn't die until she is bought out?
Go to the help server
I don’t even need to break in I could practically walk out with a million dollar painting the security there SUCKS
No
the architect silkshot doesn't need to be changed. its so ass i don't think u can redeem it.
She dosen't die until you fix the ruined tool so just make it until you get the architect variation
In the help server.
No
she already doesnt die until she is bought out but u could kill her and then after pick up the broken tool
then do it, enough distraction for me to hang the painting there
infact make it so that if u try to make the architect silkshot she dies before being able to fix it
No
Buff damage to each shot by 50
because why not
youre not gonna get help then
INFACT make it ALWAYS kill her whenever u try and make it
oh is that so? fair enough then
Ok
make yourself able to be softlocked from circlet
Heresy
Bye then, have fun silking your song.
i have a question. can u get into act 3 without double jump?
can’t, to broke to get a plane ticket to France (also I don’t want to go to France.)
no lol
does silk and soul require u to have double jump in order for it to be gottenable
yea
france isnt that bad ive been in the louvre
fuck
Its required for the quest to exist
also i dont think its possible to skip everything that needs djump
Yeah it's only for specific things im pretty sure
with pimp pogos? it probably is. (assuming you aren't in the beta)
Pretty sure you cant even enter upper bilewater without it
i did act 1 bilewater without double jump
Bilewater is fun
I don’t think France is bad I just don’t wanna go to France
Beast crest charge attack bug
its a nightmare
Not for me
ow welp
I like the more sewer-like design
they fixed that a while back
built for torture
a hopeful hell
Use old sk version
Dude lace fights are so fun
Bilewater gives me Deepnest vibes but I liked Deepnest
im thinking of going there in my steel soul save frfr
try the last one >:)
bilewater more like peak water
team cherry patching all the fun bugs but leaving in the shitty ones like sherma
Just did lost lace hitless
w
rather impressive
I have a solution to that
Bilewater is torture before double jump
looks rly fun to me, the best part was when i figured out 2nd lace's pattern i felt like matrix
That one too
oh wait the gif evolved holy
How do I do that
lace 3 yh i uninstalled when i ran into bilewater
I would love Deepnest if it weren’t for the stalking devout 
yeah its wonderfull (also good lore)
i will try to do every hollow knight boss radiant version
like og or silksong
I'm only gonna try if silksong gets radiant bosses
og
Can listen to it all day
fight was absolute hell for me for no reason 😭
silksong hitless is easier than hk hitless because of toolspam 
I’m doing that as well I only have AbsRad before get full radiant HOG 
What monster would do something like this… terrible…
That or shaman spell spam
i will do it then try to beat p5 hitless with only dream shield
Havent fought her but the amount of bugs u have to defeat and then the boss herself, the battle is long and her attacks are fast
V hard boss
I feel like im about to have a bad time
idm the gauntlet but the fight DAM 
bed time? well good night!
“You are shermicides” sherma do we need to teach you grammar
Beat lost lace hitless with (only) pale nails on shaman + volt, flealia and weavelight
wdy guys think :P
Oh and barbed bracelet
good stuff
off topic but looks cool.
One of the most difficult fights
I was gonna use cross stitch too but too risky
it wasnt that hard for me and the enemies before her are kinda easy
majestic, pale king would live in it, 9.5/10 no sawblades.
woah
build it tdy 
w
Why does he have a pavo staff?
I don't think I can learn to draw other things that completely random shit that I don't want and for some reason it is the shit that looks the best
Fortunately I can go back and undo- wait what’s this
with help of effortlessbuilding mod :P
Look at the ground
nice
is that a Dr who reference (i never watched Dr who)
Yeah lol
yeah but it costs 50 rosaries every time you use the tardis in pharloom
im planning to make this on a survival server, why you might ask?, im bored.
everyone will become silksanity
team cherry delayed silksong so people could feel the sense of insanity that the bugs of hallownest felt
they call it a city of tears and a sea of sorrow for a reason
maybe a visit to yarnaby really is necessary
And they didn’t even bother to have the layout make sense, this is obviously disproportionate
thats why they will charge us $300 for game 3 so we will know how the bugs of pharloom felt
“My God, what have we done?”
The interior is disproportionally sized considering the scale of the exterior
chat I peaked
I relearned how to do derivatives of logarithmic functions again
so unrealistic 🙄
i like your funny words magic man
lol that was actually funny
have you ever seen more aura?
nevermind Pure Vessel has more aura mb
nah the knight does
sherma has more aura
pure vessel is aurafarming, the knight is auraborn
his aura is so strong the last judge left him alone
the knight's aura is so immense every shade just accepted it as the shade lord
could that be my absolute goat pure vessel 
sherma survived the entirety of the pilgrimage with a metal pin
the fight was fucking awesome
my sister made me a absolute PEAK drawing of PV (set me back 47 dollars BUT WORTH IT)
can you show me :P now im curious
Chat how tf wanderrr users genuinely getting through coral tower
The range is so fucking small
credit to my sister ofc 
no thats dirty vessel
clawline
different person
Maybe
its not the range btw
dam thats so cool 
its the width of the attacks that make it so horrible to use
also wanderer has more reach than hunter
Yeah same thing
plasmium overdose
iirc long claw actually increases the width of attacks
Almost
WRONG
steal his copy of skong
Very similar*
ikr
NOOOOO
i beat coral tower 2nd try on wanderers crest lol
What does bread emoji even means
🥖
thread storm my fucking goat i hate those flying mfs
i love this mini PV conversation we are having lmao
i think coral tower is a little overhyped in terms of difficulty
why are we reposting aura farmer pv
same thing here, i was so proud once i did it on acended (ik its not impressive but im still proud)
i forced myself to beat pv on ascended like 4 times in a row before going back into p5
felt like it
same for nkg and gpz lol
bc it is the goat 
Honestly that's so valid
P5 already sucks dying so late would be awful
At least getting to absrad on the first try means you can quickly start practicing her
i also did a radiant nkg once by accident but i couldnt replicate it on real radiant attempts
that always sucks
PV and NKG honestly just clicked for me I did radiant PV in like 3 tries and NKG radiant in 2
happened to me once with pv its so painful
i did all of this in order to reach absrad btw and then i beat p5 like a day later
absrad is washed
radiant AbsRad is a pain in my ass bru 
tf 😭
now im jelous
radiant markoth harder (prob)
I did radiant markoth in like 6 hours and 2 mental breakdowns
yeah i aint doing all the radiants and ascendeds, thats too much for me
I took the hardest radiant markoth as well (pogoing)
I've done all radiants, it's eh
AbsRad is the only difficult one
I did a lot of hall of gods
its not bad, just time consuming to do all 44 on attuned ascended and radiant
I never tried RadHog, but I did get Weathered mask
still carefree melody best charm in tha game
tbh markoth is not as bad as people say but still annoying. The only one left for me is AbsRad
ima play some sk
and that was actually fun
cyu guys
Yea I agree, Markoth is just annoying, not actually that hard
i know im unemployed and all, but like, im not that unemployed
cyu guys
cya
have a good night fellas
Only missing nkg and absrad on ascended, and a few radiants like markoth grimm sly watcher knights
For silksong I would
For hk? No way
These are all the silksong nohits I've done so far, it's like half the bosses in the game
Congrats
thank you thank you
honestly how tf did I do tormented trobbio in only 2 attempts that fight is the definition of random bullshit go
im tryna complete my csm volumes and every store i enter rightfully has these and they are so menacing
Did you guys know thread storm is bugged against father of the flame
its trobbio but slightly different
I have 18 volumes of Chainsaw Man
Manga Collecting is not for the weak
im missing so many part 1 volumes cause they are all sold out 
Lmao that sucks
part 2 i basically am up to date
I wonder if they’re gonna do deluxe editions of CSM
Volume 23 is releasing as we speak
Though Part 2 is getting even more midder and midder everyday
i dont think they will the fact they simply released the box for part 1 kinda speaks to it
Well Tokyo Ghoul has a box set but also has omnibuses
A omnibus CSM would be nice
And JJK
oh 100%
im like so so fairly certain csm goest past the 30 volumes mark
so it would be nice to have all eventual parts grouped up in their respective bigger volumes
this part 2 shitshow is gonna get us to 60 volumes
he has to wrap ts up im so serious
this supposedly is the road to the core point of the series 
I love when we don’t talk abt silksong in the silksong channel 
Guys
its tradition
I have proof that trobbio is a butterfly (probably)
yea?
Though this IS language related, in the Italian translation for silksong, trobbio's name is a portmanteau of "butterfly" and "hamlet"
Thus implying that he could be a butterfly
i mean
yeah and the tornado thing too tbf
Sea of Sorrow tomorrow? God damn
indeed
Cool profile picture
How do you know this
Because he is Team Cherry
Hollow Knight 112% + Silksong 100%
Shaw
Hegaleeee

Your pfp is so cute
Tanks :3

Possibly for silksong 103% i three more DlCs release
my best guess is silksong is gonna also go to 112% with DLCs
Oh jeez

Wait team cherry will you bless us with one of the tool names if you feel like it (if any more tools release in the DLC)
Can someone give me some advice on how to defeat Nightmare King Grim??
get into his rhythm, keep doing him and find his weak spots and attacks. Dont get greedy on heals or attacks.
I think I'll just collect the unbreakable strength charm and banish them
I’m just doing gifs for people who can’t lol
why did hornet kill kris
WHAT
#hk-discussion is that way
Ok
No matter how powerful you become, don't try to shoulder everything alone. If you do, you will surely fail.
Oh ok I get it now but which old heart would she get along with? (Hornets possible friendships with them)
Guys I’m bored in Silksong what should I do
Commit a homicide
100 in flea juggle
Go to the center to gage his attack then rotate outwards and repeat. Attack mainly when he’s doing the fire column things
I think hornet would get along with karmileta the most
Yeah
Then mass homicide
Alr bet
You won’t be hearing from me for awhile imma be busy getting 100 on flea juggle
Flea dodge the worst of all three
Im ok at that mini game
I found flea bounce the easiest
i find juggle easier
Really
yer
acting like big flea fight isn’t the most difficult by a mile
I died my first time fighting him
Well I think kratt should have been at the bottom of each leaderboard
In the flea festival
if i ship hornet x void is that selfcest because hornet IS void?
Hey guys, I'm playing silksong and I found a weird "bug"
he is
Like, an error
okay
biggest cap ever
For some odd reason, Ass Jim is named "lugoli" did team cherry mention anything related to fixing this?
dude juggle is the easjest and dodge is the hardest
Hornet is unified Void, Void is chaotic Void
What but I thought he was higher when he shouldn't have been
they had censorship so they had to change it
he has like 2 points in each minigame
REALLY
ye
Damn
They could have used "Butt Jim"
goodnighbt chat
Goodnight but is sos really releasing tomorrow
Yes
issue of skill
The scene of the century
wtf yo even doin with architect and only delvers drill
Delvers is the coolest tool tbf
voltvessel spear:
original silkshot:
it's at least a tie 
Silksong boss tierlist (imo)
all tierlists are in your opinion
beat fourth chorus a bit ago, was there really just no reward for it? not even rosaries?
hi guys what are yalls fav scenic spots in skong? I'm planning to make an animatic featuring pretty hk and sk places 
the reward is playing the rest of the game
Not Really no it just exists as a roadblock
the reward is the Drifter's Cloak
practically
i wouldn't count that
you need to defeat Fourth Chorus to use the Drifter's Cloak in any way that matters
that's like saying the reward for bell beast is silkspear
you can just not fight Bell Beast after getting Silk Spear
you need to defeat bellbeast to play the rest of the game, which requires silkspear
unless you're doing glitched
you can skip it by buying the Simple Key
but idk why you'd count that since you can also skip fourth chorus
also, in a way, putting the reward directly before or directly after a required boss doesn't really change anything
The area of the choral chambers where you can see the vast expanse of the Citadel (where you meet lace.)
right, wormways, but most players aren't going to do that
especially if there's a checkpoint that stops you from skipping the boss
[checkpoint -> item -> boss -> progression] and [checkpoint -> boss -> item -> progression] are essencially the same
For hollow knight the bench in the City of Tears where you meet Quirrel
let me think of a more fitting example, like saying pharloom ascent rewards you with silksoar, when silksoar itself enables pharloom ascent
i just don't agree with the line of thinking is all
well, in a way, whether Pharloom Ascent is before or after Silksoar doesn't change much progression-wise
2x3 and 3x2 are both 6
sure, but that could apply to literally anything if you move the game around
The coral tower when you first silk soar up it
as it stands, pharlooms ascent cannot happen without silksoar intentionally
TRUE CORAL TOWER IS SO GORGEOUS
silksoar is not the reward for pharlooms ascent
fourth chorus cannot happen without drifter's cloak, drifter's cloak is not the reward for fourth chorus
i wish they kept sands of karak as tropical themed
Shoot I forgot abt that place still stand by the choral chambers area
Same but I also like it currently
that one moment after you leave Ruined Chapel, when all the Mossbugs are flying
the entire Lace 2 fight
the Mist
Haunted Bellhart reveal
I mean it's iconic and everything but I've never been hooked by plots that are carried by one-way dialogue
i think that's a personal opinion and not really my business
I like Silksong's plot way more
Though there are still some characters I like like the White Lady
okay, I see your point
by that definition, the exit from lower Far Fields is the reward for Fourth Chorus
hence what I said "playing the rest of the game is the reward"
OH, AND THE ARCHITECT'S MELODY
THAT ONE IS MY FAVORITE
HOW DID I FORGET THAT ONE
btw, it's kinda funny how the ascent to Greymoor is like, the only point in the entirety of Act 1 where they check if you have Drifter's Cloak
The bell beast can Purr
exit from fourth has a wind tunnel too unless you're counting that as the greymoor ascent
also the game only checks for silkspear once if you go back around instead of breaking the silk in front of the druid
more specifically, Far Fields is the only place where you need Drifter's Cloak
it's just more active
I do wish they used the silkspear mechanic more honestly
felt like a weird thing to introduce and never use again after the first 2 minutse of having it
It's just immersive progression though, the exact same as simply making a key and lock on a door.
also another question if i quit the game after dying does my cocoon stay there or nah
i really cant be bothered to go back for it now
Stays there.
ok sick ty
You're early game right? I'd recommend asking in help to avoid spoilers.
oki
sure, but you've attached an ability to something and just don't use it. I'm not saying it has to be integrated in combat, just used in more situations with silk
like cutting the strings on bellshrines and stuff
so i just completed the steel soul exclusive mission
Why?
It’s a bit different, but that collection of hanging corpses at the entrance of the trap gauntlet room in Bilewater is incredibly unnerving on the first visit. I literally walked up to it, heard the noise, and just walked away because I knew something wicked was waiting there
is Craggler a boss?
Its weird bone bottom is a spoiler on that channel
True, it should be auto-censored from the start. But it is also just shit if you get spoiled a great game for no reason.
When rosaries arent
it was actually easy the boss
If you have common sense, nope.
Most are reasonable imo
I don't think it even counts as a miniboss
the high halls water rooms
it's a glorified enviromnent hazard
If minibosses exist, I think the Craggler gets that title
it'd suck ass greatly
Huge flea in godhome
It could be used more, but how? Essentially it would just suck for Architect users, and be easy for everyone else. It would do literally nothing, or do anything possibly to annoy you.
Fluffly god of the Fleas
hiiii guys
There’s like 6 gauntlets
How
it could be used before you get to architect at least, architect is likely going to be obtained mid to late act 2 so put it in the areas before you get there like freeing pilgrims from silk or clearing up blocked paths that the citadel doesn't want them using
to balance, Gurr would be the new Markoth
The number of bosses with gauntlets is less than 10, that’s for sure
that's like, the greatest skill issue ever
also who cares about ease? is needlin hard to use?
Karm gaunglet is so easy
I guess that'd be cool. Freeing Kratt could've been such a case, otherwise I don't know.
I just want it to have more than 2 consecutive uses and be like clawline which gets all of its use in act 2 and used as a combat tool other times
Brother gurr, a random ass ant was better at the Karmelitta gauntlet than you please explain
What I am referring to is Architect users going somewhere and being blocked by some random silk, so they have to backtrack to pass through. Which would suck.
opening up sinner's road since it isn't actually supposed to be used from what I can tell
worst take ever
Karm, Khann, Craw, Brood, Groal, Unravelled*, Lugoli. I think that’s it?
Unravelled is a special case since the gauntlet is also literally part of the boss
just don't put it in act 2, it'd be bloated with having 3 different opening mechanics anyways
Unravelled IS the gaunglet
What are we all talking about
No need to apologize or anything, honestly I kinda just wanted to see if I could remember em all
bro has like the freest gauntlet ever
I wonder how many bosses you could kill on the Pantheon on architect crest Without the bind or needle
More or less, yeah
that's a lie but still
That’s wild
WHAT WOULD THE PANTHEONS OF SILKSONG BE CALLED?
Explain
Alitas are the opposite of free
Simphony
Those little shits are evil
Whether or not you’re on Steel Soul would change the answer to this.
Ik
karm's gauntet probably places 4th out of the gauntlets in difficulty imo
Ok but what about the pantheon of pharloom
Hear me out
pretty boring, all things considered
Sorry BUT WHO FINDS THAT GAUNTLET DIFFICULT???
Really?
Would it be called the choir of pharloom
Eternal ordeal style room where you fight every gauntlet in a row
The Last Claws can be a bit of a hurdle
Silksong’s boss rush should 100% have gauntlets btw
1 hard wave
It’s not “difficult” but it’s definitely not a cakewalk
You’ve gotta try to kill them
4th of the boss gauntlets, not all of the gauntlets
You’ve gotta try even harder to kill them without entering the Karm fight with less silk/masks than you could have
i find the little throwing mfs annoying because the timing for their aim feels weird to me
the big guys are free money though
Me after beating Lace 2 and getting my health set to 4, crest set to hunter, and all tools removed so I can fight the act 3 beginning gauntlet
That’s a hurdle by definition
I just parry them every time
more accurate Silksong tierlist
Gauntlets by my rating of difficulty:
- The Choir
- The Karaka
- Deep Docks Gauntlet (deeper parts, 2 Bomber Fucks)
- Hunters March
- Act ||| entrance gauntlet
(not by boss gauntlets)
no because they already have a choir. I like the suggestion of symphonies
more
Pantheon of the Hunter
Pantheon of the Mapmaker (Shakra at the peak)
Pantheon of the Weaver
Pantheon of the Abyss (Act 3 Bosses)
Pantheon of Pharloom
How does it make sense to say that easy and fun can't be on the same level?
?
How is 2 moss mothers harder than clover dancers
Pantheon of Pain
PoP
I haven't fought shakra
It’s a compass
ive come to quite enjoy the conchfly fights for some reason
So maybe something else
Chat hear me out
I think Cogwork Dancers prepares the player way too well to Clover Dancers
it's just a second Dancers fight
Double Moss Mother is quite hard at that point in the game
that's not what that chart means
it's a graph, with fun on one axis and toughness on the other axis
Very cramped
What if the silksong Path of pain is hidden in the atla parkour room and it gives the weaver journal entry
the closer you are to the intercept, the closer it is to both attributes
Ass Jim sucks I hate that fight so much
i wasn't expecting the ass to bounce
Hatred out of principle more than anything else
Use delvers drill on ass Jim then
way too many bosses here, game sucks
Unravelled is fun
Choir clapper on boss lol
why is savage beastfly one in the corner
Raging Conchfly is a blast
wait I just got the best deal out of a trial randomizer
btw ignore Skarrgard and Choir Clapper, they were in the tierlist and I had no choice
Hard and Not Fun according to the chart
No sbf should be in nothingness
But like it is actually pretty fun (unlike SBF2)
it's a glorified Bell Beast with gaunglets in between
It ain’t a Bell Beast
WHY IS BILEWATER SO LARGE AND LONG I WANNA BURN THIS PLACE DOWN
brother
-conductors
You mean the Whiteward?
putrified ducts is just bilewater if it was a nothing burger
Yeah but that's not a criterium
except for that ductsucker platforming section. I liked that
Maybe it could be like this:
P1 Pintress and Seamstress
P2 Putrified Ducts Unnamed Pintress
P3 ?
P4 Citadel (theme)
P5 Silk (Weavers, Lace, GMS)
Or also like this:
P1 Vaultkeepers
P2 Architects
P3 Conductors
P4 Weavers / ?
P5 Silk
With each being themed by music, automatons and stuff like that, idk.
could fall under fun depending on what aspect of the design
Young Phantom should be a pantheom ending fight
Phantom was supposedly always frayed, so while she wasn't literally faceless, she always had a thinner and weaker form.
i like bagels with cream cheese
Yes
Wtf dude thats so messed up
Call her first Silkborn
The Ending fights I think we NEED are Seamstress, Duct Pintress and possibly a combination with Pintress.
I'd also like to see Xero return as a proper bossfight among the Karaka, but I won't see that happening ever.
didn't their journal say they were frayed with time? or something
or was it the color
We need a fight between pinstress and lace
No, GMS says "better a child frayed than none", meaning she was imperfect from the start.
Lace would easily win though...
Really because pinstress has more experience
- Frail
2 that was about lace
guys could I technically just loom lace into a pile of yarn?
Yes
prolly, assuming she has no core structure
And gms too
GMS is a grandma and with one cough she would vapourise
The colour was so:
•White parts — already gone
•Black parts — very few, only pure silk
•grey parts — weak, dirty silk that is already mostly gone
well GMS would be immpossible to do so because im pretty sure she can just create silk, (yk,she is literally the god of silk)
Grand mommy silk
Just be fast smh
i think for a pantheon sort of thing, sure. in terms of current game, I prefer LL more as a final boss
Reading comprehension can't be that hard...
What
Phantom is referred to as frayed, Lace is referred to as mad (and loyal, though that may also apply to Phantom).
and which is a child spun pure then
Should lace be in a therapy facility
Why would she talk about Phantom there
Both, though Lace is likely meant. Pure as in, purely made from silk.
Frail is also lace because She's on literal silk life support
Who's midra
i would just make the correlation that they're all associated with lace
Because Phantom also served as a replacement to the Weavers. Also, Lace literally isn't even frayed, how the fuck would that make sense?
given that this happens after her boss fight and can all be applied to lace
Frail
Its not frayed
Thats not in the cutscene
GRAND MOMMY SILK
But how does lace do her flip and lunge because that's physically impossible without wings
so there's nothing to imply that phantom was always frayed, only that hronet noted that they were frayed to indicate that they're made of silk
What do you think Phantom did to the pilgrims that got to her
she's pretty light so she moves through the air akin to dandelion seeds
same thing they were about to do to you, probably
aurafarm but actually win this time
Theres no bodies in the exhaust organ
When is Sea of Sorrow 😭
Really because most bugs need wings to fly as they can't fight gravity without it
Come on, how is this even a question?
And phantom wanted to die in combat and a sherma is not gonna be a good death in combat
Lace is also frail
Nevermind, still means the same.
lace is pretty frail
she made out of silk for gods sake lol
That is so true though sherma is precious
No? She very much isn't to the same extent as Phantom.
Phantom is too, but let's just ignore that then...
Because phantom isnt on life support from god
So they're both frail 😭
im not ignoring it lmao, I'm saying that in this context, she seems to be talking about all attributes that can be aligned with lace
Well have you seen how thin they are
Guy thinks the lace silk heart cutscene is about phantom
How
no, they think that it's about both phantom and lace
I just don't think so
Also does lace have pockets to hold stuff
I guess you are right, though I am still not fully convinced this certainly is talking about only Lace. You did make good points though.
I wish we could ask team cherry about if lace has pockets or not
that's fine and I appreciate that, but next time, please don't try to insult someone's "reading comprehension" whenever team cherry is known for (area titles aside) being unclear with their dialogue
Do you think Phantom And the stiltkin Are chill with eachother
Prolly not. Groal doesn't seem very reasonable from the way he treated that shaman.
Its weird the only Bodies near Phantom Are the mist ones
yoo hi
not trying to continue this conversation, just following up on this.
Silksong apparently has a theme of motherhood or something, idc, some people just say so.
So why not Hornet?
I am not answering that.
In a dialogue with eva it implies She's failed to concieve children a little

I wouldn't want to disappoint.
i like how groal didnt change or didnt change much because hes already horrific
Actually they were just all being unclothed. That is their skin.
Or shell I guess.
Ok lowkey change the pinstresses design. Straight horrendous. Though it kinda fits the stilkin for some reason
That pinstress design woukd give me a nightmare
I didn't create this masterpiece. And the pintress design is as realistic as can be, I mean they are hinted to be somewhat related to Stilkin. Also, they are beautiful.
Hex nah. Idk where you got the info that theyre related to the stilkins
Fun fact:
Karmelita has a dress of literal flesh over her normal body (flesh). Additionally, there are sawblades in between, which is the equivalent of having tacks in your male sensitive area parts.
SHE COULD BE USED TO BEAT THE STUPID PRIMAL ASPID
Sir you cant throw the word foreskin around
Just speculation based on the Ducts Pintress. I mean, we really have nothing to go off of otherwise. Craws are an option, but less implied to be so.
why is flesh bracketed
The pinstress in ducts
And the nose
Also karmileta is the God of song and resistance
Idk man. Why would she even make the wreath or even died if she was related to the stilkins
like how lady gaga wore a meat dress or?
Not alot of things could support that other than its a great place to hide from citadel
You just did exactly that. And seriously, the game literally has sexual intercourse, how would that even be bad in that context?
She was probably running from the citadel and didnt get far enough
?!??!?!
What the fuck?
As karmileta literally gave the skarr power to resist the haunting
You know the Stilkin likely all wear wreaths?
Mb twn
