[light swan]

oh is it metroidvanias only

[lavish apex]

yea

[rough anvil]

Shes murglin herself

[graceful cairn]

true...

[minor sparrow]

I thought that said sapphic ceratinia

[light swan]

seraphic ceratinia is out of the equation then

[graceful oyster]

Criminal to put 1 over 2

[rough anvil]

Is that illusion im running away

[graceful oyster]

I understand you like Mio 2nd final boss but he ain't that good

[minor sparrow]

Wait....

[fiery burrow]

(MIO FINAL BOSS) ooh yeah ||shii needs his health doubled||

[rose trail]

no one btw

[light swan]

meow meow meow im a little catboy

[frosty light]

is this just a lighting or screenshot difference or was her drip actually a different color from the others?

[earnest drift]

they're both hated (also this text colour is disgusting)

[fiery burrow]

Anyway my opinion is kinda skewed by modless dodgeless which was really fun

[light swan]

i’ve already said my piece, nine sols final boss would probably be above if i liked the combat system more

[graceful cairn]

honestly (nine sols spoilers) ||knowing eigong is the final boss is making a lot of stuff way more interesting ngl||

[light swan]

it’s brought down purely because parries stink

[minor sparrow]

Hmmmm

[graceful oyster]

It was pretty cool for me and I didn't regret knowing

[minor sparrow]

I solved it

[graceful oyster]

It made seeing the intro just that much cooler

It was like it was a prophesied meeting

[rough anvil]

YOU WHAT

[graceful oyster]

I was finally there

[light swan]

while mio’s 2nd final boss is paired with my favorite metroidvania combat system, nine sols final boss is paired with a 6/10 system i like less and less as time goes on

[fiery burrow]

are we ever gonna get a new indie game without parrying

[light swan]

so while one is better than the other, i like the other more because it’s way more enjoyable for me

[graceful oyster]

Does Constance have parrying? Lol

[lavish apex]

i know parries can be done well

[light swan]

[light swan]

unbounded counter

[minor sparrow]

Does the game have to be good or?

[graceful oyster]

Nine sols does parries well!!!

[rough anvil]

You act tuff and like a 25 year old how did this occur

[fiery burrow]

Yeah

[lavish apex]

furi and gow4 parries are definitely examples of that

[light swan]

if unbounded counter didnt exist tje nine sols final boss wouldn’t be on the top 5

[graceful cairn]

no

[lavish apex]

i think blasphemous 2's as well

[graceful oyster]

Oh so that rules out Constance

[graceful cairn]

constance cant have anything fun in it

[light swan]

i’ve always been this way

[rough anvil]

😭😭😭😭😭

[frosty light]

holy SHIT

[fiery burrow]

ooh furi is on the bucket list

[graceful cairn]

so true

[lavish apex]

i haven't played sekiro but i hear that game does them well too

[light swan]

that’s why i wanna play sekiro

[fiery burrow]

constance always catching strays 😔

[graceful oyster]

I think where I disagree with your stance on 9S parries, now that I've finished the game, is that there is a punishment for spamming parries, and it's that internal damage adds up FAST and can make that one real hit hurt a lot or nearly straight up kill you

[fiery burrow]

Yeah Sekiro is fantastic mostly because the bosses have movesets that are complex enough to work

[minor sparrow]

Thistlewind has a pretty unique weapon for a hk character

[fiery burrow]

Like the way I see it is that if you are gonna have a simple combat system you need complex enemies

[minor sparrow]

Bar is low but you know

Take what you can get

[fiery burrow]

That's just a nail lance

[light swan]

i’ve beaten almost all the bosses as well as the game on 0 hp all internal damage

[fiery burrow]

Mantis Lords and the flying guys in CoT have them too iirc

[graceful oyster]

Cool

[light swan]

i love internal damage as a mechanic but like

[lavish apex]

what is internal damage?

[minor sparrow]

And 90% of the weapons are a nail nail

[fiery burrow]

[graceful oyster]

I'm just saying this now that I have the ability to discuss

[light swan]

why does it have to keep you alive

that’s what i dislike about it, you can just never die

[graceful cairn]

nothings better than getting a good parry after a series of fucked up ones and seeing your health go back up 🥹

[graceful oyster]

Imprecisely parrying makes you take a temporary damage that becomes real if you get hit

[light swan]

whej i realized how little internal damage mattered i breezed through the game so fast

[light swan]

think of it lik red health in ttgc

[minor sparrow]

Yeah I did admittedly start thinking about them afterwards lmao

[lavish apex]

oh interesting

[light swan]

you can heal it back but not if you get hit again

[graceful oyster]

And it is a lot of temp damage

[light swan]

except the difference is that you can’t die from internal damage

which i tjink is really stupid

i love damage you can heal from but the fact that you’re invincible

[rough anvil]

Joni's blessing + hiveblood

[undone gate]

Also Imperfect Parries stun you a bit if you do that on the ground

[light swan]

in my personal experience with the game it was stupid

[rough anvil]

Eigong...

[graceful oyster]

Sure, I do think internal damage should kill you. I never let it get to that point while I played but as soon as I found out I was surprised

Makes steely jade cracked out of the wazoo

[undone gate]

Regardless your not getting any damage by doing Imperfect Parries so you still need to make sure your safe for Tailsman

[graceful cairn]

whats that

[light swan]

yea i still went for perfect parries for qi

[graceful oyster]

||Enemies can't interrupt talismans. Side bonus, all damage taken is internal.||

[graceful cairn]

ohhhh

[light swan]

even if internal damage could kill i feel like that brings the combat system from a 6 to an 8

standing still and parrying almost fucking everything is still not something i enjoy

[graceful cairn]

nine sols combat is NOT a 6 what are you on

[graceful cairn]

THEN DONT DO THAT

[light swan]

look it’s above average be happy

im being generous

[graceful cairn]

you dont HAVE to play optimally if thats not fun for you

[graceful oyster]

9S combat is pretty solid, you only parry as much as enemies attack you and it's finding the window to tag or strike that's the fun part

[light swan]

in the final bosses firsy phase, 5 out of 7 attacks require you to stand still and parry

[graceful oyster]

Well the first phase is the tutorial anyway

[undone gate]

Or you can jump parry

[light swan]

the second phase adds 1 new atyack and 2 new variations

in the new atyack you either stand still and oarry twice, or you stand still and parry 6 times

[undone gate]

I really didn't think I would enjoy a parry based game that much until I played Nine Sols

[graceful oyster]

Same

[light swan]

the variations make you stand still and parry twice before UC which i love, i enjoy theee attacks even if it’s still stand still and parry

[graceful oyster]

See you're just standing still too much, there's stuff to be done in between the parries

[light swan]

to dodge the attack you stand still and parry

[graceful oyster]

#sk-discussion message

[light swan]

obviously youre doing stuff when the boss isnt attacking

[graceful cairn]

you can parry in the air btw

[undone gate]

I like to optimize the amount of full control tailsman I can get so I like to use it while she is attacking or during her downtimes

[light swan]

yea youre parrying literally fucking everything, my point is proven

[graceful cairn]

yeah thats the fun part

[graceful oyster]

Instead of getting hit, yeah, and taking every opportunity in between to hit her

That's like, how bosses work

MIO bosses have a huge problem in the abundance of downtime and she just doesn't have that

[lavish apex]

if you don't have to reposition that's a little lame

[graceful oyster]

For many of them you do

[light swan]

at least in other games you actually need to think about how you counter it

[sinful yarrow]

im in the slab and hornet shawty you is fine can i say that am i gonna get nuked

[graceful oyster]

There's one flurry where you can stand still

[light swan]

im happy you dash away from the crimson slash

[graceful oyster]

Guys look another weirdo sexualizing hornet

[light swan]

you literally told me not to parry earlier

[sharp slate]

I like nine sols combat tbh, hit and run tatics kinda back and forth

[undone gate]

Isin't the whole point of parrying just that you hit a button to avoid an attack it isin't made with thinking in mind

[graceful cairn]

you can have your own play style yeah

you can definitely just dodge a lot of shit if you really try

[light swan]

which is why i fundamentally dislike the concept of parries

ALL parries

unless they make you think

[light swan]

i learned by gummy that this game does not want me to do that

[graceful cairn]

was really fun to use unbounded counter against ||fuxi||

[light swan]

i remember complaining to my friend about the bigass hitboxes forcing me to parry

[minor sparrow]

What, like For Honor? But I think that's more like blocking( haven't played it)

[light swan]

wdym for honor

[minor sparrow]

The game, forgot the capitalization

[light swan]

it’s funner when i react to different attacks differently idk where honor comes in

[light swan]

idk what game that is unfortunately

[undone gate]

I do like Silksong combat system more than Nine Sols because it requires more thinking while I also think Nine Sols Combat System is amazing at what it does

[sharp slate]

Parry games are kinda like rhythm games tbh

[minor sparrow]

Medieval weapons fighting game, to block the enemies attacks you have to know or predict which directions they're going to attack from being left right or up directionally, iirc

[light swan]

the fact that there’s talismans and charge attacks and things to do between attacks is the

ONLY

reason why nine sols combat isnt a 2/10

well also unbounded counter which is a fucking amazing mechanic that i love so much

[lavish apex]

yeah i imagine most games would have shit combat if you removed half of the mechanics

[minor sparrow]

It's a pvp focused game but has pve elements

[undone gate]

Nine Sols is just not your type of game if you dislike parries so much

[graceful oyster]

Grrr if 9S didn't have this and this and this and that then it would suck!

[light swan]

exactly. it’s not the games fault it’s me disliking parries

[minor sparrow]

Games with parries are kinda like rhythm games

[broken seal]

[lavish apex]

if xenoblade x didn't have overdrive it would be a 0/10

like what are we doing here

[broken seal]

enoblade

[light swan]

people are out here telling me that there’s things to do in between attacks

[graceful oyster]

If YOMI Hustle didn't have Robot Overflow it would be a 0/10

[light swan]

like bro i fucking know that thats the only reason it’s not a shit combat system

[keen solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/phigros-rythm-game-key-mash-fast-hands-video-game-gif-27297631

[lavish apex]

😭

[light swan]

OBVIOUSOY there’s other things to do ??????

like bro. what the actual fuck 😭

[earnest drift]

does the parry make nine sols easy

[minor sparrow]

Technically you are just parrying the notes to make them not damage you

[light swan]

no the parry is the baseline

[keen solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/arcaea-cyanine-lanota-eghd-gif-25482032

[minor sparrow]

Is the parry the rhythm game or the rhythm game the parry?

[light swan]

difficulty is not a factor for my hatred for parries

[lavish apex]

i do get where you're coming from

[keen solstice]

Ultrakill parries are good tho

[rocky jolt]

three sols

[keen solstice]

[light swan]

have not played ultrakill

[broken seal]

are you the strongest because you're satoru gojo or are you satoru gojo because you're the strongest ahh

[graceful oyster]

https://tenor.com/view/v1-ultrakill-parry-nine-sols-yi-gif-6214778104212829457

[slim thorn]

i never saw horizontals on these kind of game its so cool

[lavish apex]

i think it is good when games expect a lot of varied defensive responses

[earnest drift]

so what do you think of hornet's regular parry, with the needle not the silk skill

[harsh yarrow]

"Pharloom bay is outside of the blasted steps"
just gonna put this here now ;3
This is within Weavenest Murglin

[light swan]

useless, all risk no reward leads it to being not a very interesting mechanic

[keen solstice]

Phigros's gimmick is that the judgement line(line that you need to tap the note when it reaches) can move anywhere and everywhere on the screen

https://tenor.com/view/hatsune-miku-skill-issue-phigros-rhythm-dakarlocat-gif-10756197362608599857

[light swan]

that being said if there was fitting reward i’d likely dislike it

[harsh yarrow]

The bay is up and to the right of Murglin, to the point of being able to hear the ocean from within it XD

[undone gate]

I don't intentionally do it but if it happens accidentally then I like it

[rocky jolt]

you dont really need to look that deep all you need is character dialogue and the trailers description

[slim thorn]

what is the game name?

[keen solstice]

I just said it
Phigros

[light swan]

although you can still only parry certain things so it woudlnt be the worst

[harsh yarrow]

Aye, but people are reallly, reallly dumb

[lavish apex]

silksong needle parries are just hype moments and aura it's barely a real mechanic outside of maybe some specific projectiles

[keen solstice]

Then you have arcaea which is just
3d

[light swan]

and even with bosses like karmelita you need to backdash to not get contact damaged

[livid crater]

did sea of sorrow drop?

[keen solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/pentiment-arcaea-phigros-cytus-deemo-gif-7886344408421713161

[minor sparrow]

Oh right someone brought up gow 2018 right?

[lavish apex]

me

[undone gate]

And for bosses like Lace it just sometimes turns your attack into a parry so you deal no damage

[minor sparrow]

Yeah that parry mechanic seems pretty cool especially with the customization of what you can do afterwards and the buffs it gives

[lavish apex]

gow4/ragnarok parry is very good because there are a lot of unparryables and executing them is often a risk

[graceful oyster]

You probably like LadE a lot because most of her attacks aren't normal parries

Or if they are they're often aerial

[minor sparrow]

The LL dash attack in question:

[keen solstice]

Ragnarok still sucks however

You should also mention ultrakill when it comes to parryables and unparryables

There's lots of attacks in ultrakill that can't be parried

[undone gate]

It's just so easy to parry that when you want to hit her

[light swan]

i had more fun with her than nog

[lavish apex]

like a lot of bosses will have combos that you can either bring up shield for OR parry for a bigger reward but more of a damage risk and also a lot of attacks that you are forced to dodge or reposition for

furi is basically the same

[undone gate]

What is nog

[graceful oyster]

Ei

[light swan]

but nog is so well designed i cant possibly put nog under lade

[lavish apex]

i haven't played ultrakill but i disagree that ragnarok sucks

[minor sparrow]

According to 90% of reviews, no it doesn't so eh

[lavish apex]

unless you mean the story, that's a fair take

[normal bramble]

A lot? Do you mean literally almost everything

[keen solstice]

Ragnarok is just a straight up downgrade from 2018 in every aspect

[lavish apex]

but i don't care so much about that

[light swan]

nog is so well designed shes my 2nd favorite metroidvania boss of all time

[graceful oyster]

Also I never use the bow so I don't know how that affects fights

[lavish apex]

i like ragnarok combat more

but only a little bit

[keen solstice]

Less combat and move variety less gameplay as a whole far less difficulty and lets not forget 90% of the game is cutscene simulator

What happened to 90% of the runes from 2018

[lavish apex]

atreus parts do suck

[undone gate]

Which boss is nog

[light swan]

the final boss

[lavish apex]

90% cutscene simulator is false

[undone gate]

Of Nine Sols

[light swan]

like i talk about how 5 out of 7 of her attacks are just parry bullshit but that still leaves 2

[graceful oyster]

Atriox

[keen solstice]

How so

[lavish apex]

it just is?

[light swan]

and shes still fun probably

[sinful yarrow]

OH SHE JUST SNAPPED A NECK GO HORNET

[lavish apex]

i don't think it has much more of that than 2018

[minor sparrow]

I really don't know what you expected the response to be lol

[sinful yarrow]

HELLO?

[light swan]

i dont like to leave nine sols conversations on the note of "i hate nine sols" because i fucking love the game

[keen solstice]

5 minutes of combat
30 minutes of cutscenes
All the time

[keen solstice]

Oh it definitely does

[light swan]

i just fucking hate parries and its nothing against nine sols its purely against the concept of parries

[undone gate]

And Phace 3

[lavish apex]

not what i remember at all

[graceful oyster]

I can't listen to heng music because it makes me so dang sad for no good reason

[keen solstice]

Play them again then

[graceful oyster]

It's TOO sad

[light swan]

phase 2 adds more parry bullshit and a bit of UC, phase 3 adds more parry bullshit and a bit of UC

[light swan]

me trying to listen to xc2

[keen solstice]

Also what's funny about ultrakill parries

You can parry a giant

But you can't parry a 4 legged abomination swinging a small sword at you

[lavish apex]

i like the valkyries more than the berserkers i will say that

[keen solstice]

Valkyries were peak

[lavish apex]

even though hrolf is a banger he's not as good as sigrun

[keen solstice]

Especially sigrun
Kicked my ass

i kinda hate how witch crest has lower attack speed

[light swan]

who needs attack speed i havent neutral attacked in my life

[sinful yarrow]

the slab is amazing

i love this area

[sinful yarrow]

also hunters crest isnt that bad its kinda fun to figure out

[lavish apex]

playing silksong without hunter pogo is like strictly less enjoyable to me

[still osprey]

Hunter 💜

[keen solstice]

It's the 3rd best crest in the game

[main urchin]

If DK country cartoon didn’t have the funny music it would be 3/10

[keen solstice]

Only behind architect and shaman

[rocky jolt]

yea i see the shit you do none of that is neutral

[latent terrace]

Is this another silkpost?

[still osprey]

No it's real

yea because thats hornet and not the silksong

the sleepless nights are catching up i can hear primal aspids buzz in pharloom

[light swan]

well id be cool no matter what but the watermark is like one of the skyscrapers in my country so i guess it still matters

[light swan]

you shuld learn 👁️

[latent terrace]

Wonder how the dlc will treat the true ending and the aftermath of it

[sinful yarrow]

mount fae ugh

[latent terrace]

Like it's only Hornet and Lace left

[sinful yarrow]

theres a cold mechanic

[rocky jolt]

i kinda just use witch crest for funny aoe bind

but i could try

[latent terrace]

Pharloom is like dead dead

[light swan]

use it for everything else thats cool !!

[latent terrace]

Me wondering if I should use my next memory locket on hunter, witch, beast, or shaman

[rocky jolt]

i havent even touched sawtooth circlet in my life so id have to leave witch crest combos for after that

[covert bridge]

Any tips for twisted child ending

[light swan]

which one do you think is the coolest and funnest

[still osprey]

I mean, I don't see why it matters

It's just going to add a new area to the game it's not post-game or anything

[light swan]

why do you need sawtooth circlet for cool witch stuff

[rocky jolt]

but witch combos are harder to do right

[vivid belfry]

The basic witch functionality of bind nuking works plenty well for most people

[latent terrace]

But doesn't the ending still leave a bit of cliffhanger?

[light swan]

well yea witch is the hardest crest for a reason

[rocky jolt]

i agree

[latent terrace]

Like, what will the future be for pharloom, lace and Hornet?

[light swan]

but its cool and interesting and underrated :(

[earnest drift]

pharloom can rebuild without them

[still osprey]

Why does that matter for a dlc will take place before the ending tho

[rocky jolt]

cuz im not gonna try learning the hardest crest if i dont even know how to properly use the best blue tool

[vast grove]

hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiIiiiiiiiiiiiii

[earnest drift]

i hope hornet and lace leave to go somewhere else

[light swan]

i guess 🙄

[rocky jolt]

theres nothing you can do except getting good

[earnest drift]

i hate radiance

[latent terrace]

Okay, I don't know if the dlc will take place after or before the ending

[light swan]

use clawline a lot

[vivid belfry]

This is very much implied by the final title screen unlock

[sinful yarrow]

bro there are like 6 benches here help

[covert bridge]

[earnest drift]

i hope to see it

[light swan]

i hope hornet dies and lace can journey into Lacelight on her own

[vivid belfry]

You don't need to

[sinful yarrow]

nvm this is the same bench

[still osprey]

Do you really think Team Cherry will make like, some kind of Act 4 as the very first dlc to the game only 6 months since the game came out

[light swan]

maybe its a damsel in distress thing where lace needs to save hornet form the serene kingdom this time

[latent terrace]

Maybeeee?

[still osprey]

Your expectations are way too high

[rocky jolt]

actually you just gonna use clawline properly

[earnest drift]

as if hornet would be reduced to such a position

that would give lace a MASSIVE ego boost though and she'd lord it over hornet forever

[main urchin]

It’d be hard to make an act 4 happen

[latent terrace]

We will make sea of sorrow into their own standalone game

[main urchin]

If we do that we can’t refight Lost Lace until Godhome

[covert bridge]

Should i just enter act 3 without twisted child ending

[graceful oyster]

Are there any modded General Y's

[light swan]

:(

[graceful oyster]

I need to fight this boss again where he's hard again

[main urchin]

If act 4 isn’t godhome, we’re screwed because they need a new final boss and that boss can’t be the Shade Lord

[latent terrace]

Wonder how much harder pharloom pantheon will be compared to hallownest

[still osprey]

I feel like Godhome is just gonna be some Act 3 thing

[latent terrace]

I mean we have NKG and Purr Vessel, aswell as Zote in Hallownest

[still osprey]

It's more fun that's for sure

[light swan]

stage of destiny or whatever its called, the last stage you duo X and Y

[main urchin]

If there are no new bosses it’ll be harder

[vivid belfry]

I think this is gonna depend on tool behavior

[still osprey]

I did it 1st try in the Pantheon of Pharloom mod and it was a lot more fun than Pantheon of Hallownest

[main urchin]

If we get new bosses plus Shade Lord as the final fight… we’re all gonna die

[still osprey]

P5 is so ass highkey

[light swan]

it was my personal farming challenge because fl7 is so damn strong

[latent terrace]

Fighting Groal after Khann

And after that Karmellita straigh

[cinder cove]

Tormented Trobbio is annoying to deal with, but I made it.

[main urchin]

Groal would probably be before the Old Hearts since he’s the last boss needed to reach act 3 besides Grand Mother Silk

[earnest drift]

do you think silksong's final pantheon will include all the garbage bosses

[latent terrace]

The tornado or the bombs?

[cinder cove]

Nothing will ever be as ridiculous to me as the Karmelita battle

[main urchin]

And Act 3’s boss roster is centered on these 3/4 bosses

[cinder cove]

The tornado is the easy part. It’s those cheap bombs

[earnest drift]

even if pantheon of pharloom contains all the bosses it won't be as bad as P5 because silksong doesn't have as much garbage in it

but i would very much like them to cut out voltvyrm, zango and palestag

[lavish apex]

yeah, silksong's equivalent needs to be streamlined when it happens

[covert bridge]

Guys who is ur favorite flea

[latent terrace]

Which boss do you guys see that can have a new version in the pantheon?

[main urchin]

I think they might add the FAT FUCKS IN HIGH HALLS

[main urchin]

Huge Flea

[earnest drift]

if this was hollow knight they would include those

[iron trellis]

why the hell does gms have exactly 1204 hp

[normal bramble]

The idiot who managed to get stuck in ice in Mount Fay or Vog

[earnest drift]

they would also include covetous pilgrim, cogwork clapper, rhinogrund and flintbeetle

[latent terrace]

Mooshka

[light swan]

turn poph into a roguelike where you can select the boss you fight as well as upgrades along the way

[main urchin]

Ok not flintbeetle

[earnest drift]

and huge flea, void mass, skarrgard

Why no kratt guys hes so lovable

[light swan]

and include gauntlets

[earnest drift]

hollow knight would've put this in godhome

[latent terrace]

Coral Tower Gauntlet?

[main urchin]

But they would include Skarrgard, Craggler, and maybe Those Fat Guys in Coral Tower

[light swan]

i just realized how much i’d love this

[main urchin]

They might even include Gargant Gloam. Maybe.

[rocky jolt]

dont diss my shardillard

[earnest drift]

hollow knight would've put this in godhome

[rocky jolt]

you can diss that its fine

[main urchin]

hollow knight would’ve put this in godhome

HAHAHAHAAAAAA

[earnest drift]

this makes me feel 2 dimensional

[main urchin]

ME SHOVING MY SHIPPING OPINIONS DOWN UR THROAT

[main urchin]

i mean HK is a 2d game

[earnest drift]

i don't watch phineas and ferb

[latent terrace]

Since lace need silk to survive, does that mean she's codependent on Hornet?

[earnest drift]

yes

[main urchin]

pfft phinneas and ferb

bro didn’t remember total drama existed

[earnest drift]

no

[earnest drift]

lace is a brilliant character and i love her because she kills innocent people and wants pharloom to be destroyed

[earnest drift]

void heart is inconsistent and weird which is why lace is a better shade lord than the knight

[latent terrace]

Okay, time to put down the glazing machine

[earnest drift]

glace

[north shore]

sigh

[light swan]

does hornet have a hitbox during cross stitch

wait i think she does

the same way how she does during witch pogo

just with iframes

L Gif load 🙁

[odd marsh]

my first play through is DONE!

[latent terrace]

Which boss do you guys think is the first skill check for players in the game?

[earnest drift]

bell beast

[main urchin]

Bell Beast

[odd marsh]

fourth chorus

[glad hazel]

The bat of moors

[lavish apex]

widow

[glad hazel]

(Pre nerf)

[main urchin]

one of these things is not like the others

[earnest drift]

bell beast is "this is double damage, get used to it"

[odd marsh]

lmao

[light swan]

ggs !!

[light swan]

skarrgard, widow

[main urchin]

Pure Vessel is the only boss in Hollow Knight where it is impossible to get hit for 1 mask damage.

[odd marsh]

bell beast is also like: this is moss charger so its easy asf

[main urchin]

In Silksong, that’s true for the second boss in the game.

[odd marsh]

lmao

[lavish apex]

that's not fair

[light swan]

idk about bell beast, its hardly a skill "check" as it is a skill "baseline"

[main urchin]

Wait actually I forgot about Zote

[lavish apex]

bell beast sucks compared to mossy!

[light swan]

since its quite literally the first real boss i think

[earnest drift]

bell beast is similar to moss charger but the differences make her bossfight so much better for me

[lavish apex]

mossy is so much more fun to pet

(this is a bit)

[odd marsh]

very fair, all he does in the first phas is that jump thingy which i can do 4 hits garunteed and then the second phase scream withought bells can make it possible to do 2 sikspears and a hit im pretty sure and then he is rlly low

[latent terrace]

Almost everyone answered Bell Beast

[light swan]

this is a bit true, i agree with you

[latent terrace]

And I thought that it will be Lace or something in act 1

[light swan]

im the only person who said otherwise

[odd marsh]

but the good thing is you can pet the bell beast whenever we want

[odd marsh]

i said fourth chorus-

[light swan]

bell beast is the first real boss i cant call it a skill check cuz theres nothing its checking

nevermind blebbles also said widow and ancientgaming also said moorwing

[odd marsh]

btw is 51 hrs for 100% + lost lace like slow cuz it feels slow asf

[lavish apex]

the afterimage boss that i did nothing but stand still and mash heavy attack at was definitely a skill check

[latent terrace]

What about sister splinter?

[odd marsh]

what

[earnest drift]

too easy

[odd marsh]

she was a nightmare

[lavish apex]

sorry that's another metroidvania

[light swan]

who was it again

[odd marsh]

2 sides of a man

[lavish apex]

i don't even remember

[light swan]

you understand the afterimage mindset

[lavish apex]

it was the thing in the purple goop in the ghost town

[odd marsh]

ofcourse lace i saying too easy

[light swan]

oh ||mastermage auss||

lowkey on the higher end i think

[lavish apex]

no not her

the one before her

[light swan]

wtf theres another boss in the area?

[lavish apex]

i can't imagine why you would forget about that it was so memorable

[light swan]

||i remember loss the galefeathers being in emerald falls, around double jump||

[latent terrace]

I stuck at the longest with Fourth Chorus, Sister Splinter, and Moorwing until I managed to get good

[odd marsh]

https://tenor.com/view/trobbio-silk-song-hollow-knight-act-2-dies-gif-434841477376972261

[light swan]

||crystallized wolf was before the ray thing isnt it||

[odd marsh]

i got stuck at sister splinter and moor wing, sister i beat in like 6 tries but moorwing i gave up and used garmond to beat for me

[latent terrace]

Why do I feel like some act 2 bosses are much easier than act 1 bosses?

[light swan]

at the very least i hope you have fun with the true ending 1 final boss

[earnest drift]

silksong and hollow knight have a bad habit of getting easier as the game continues

[odd marsh]

idk all bosses were mid diff in act 2

[latent terrace]

Or is it because we have got good with the skills and tools?

[light swan]

its the only boss i felt like replaying

[odd marsh]

i disagree, after gettign dream nail hk became way harder

[light swan]

felt like what one of the other metroidvania bosses i really like SHOULVE been

[earnest drift]

hornet 1 took me longer than nkg, pure vessel and absolute radiance put together

[light swan]

not as a diss theyre both great

[odd marsh]

dude i would do anything to fight as shade lord

[odd marsh]

wtf

[earnest drift]

wtf would we even do

[odd marsh]

pet radiance

[earnest drift]

i hate the shade lord

[odd marsh]

i love the shadelord

2 sides of humanity again:

[lavish apex]

i hope so too

i know you said not to expect much but like damn

[earnest drift]

you did that

[light swan]

i personally think theyre innoffensive

i wouldnt call any of them bad they just dont really exist

[lavish apex]

i mean yeah

[odd marsh]

also in the true ending of skong we see the knight at the end so that means the radiance killing ending was cannon?

[light swan]

but that also means theyre not good

[light swan]

of the two radiance killing ones both are likely

[latent terrace]

Dream no more and embrace the void?

[light swan]

yea i think

[odd marsh]

there r like 5 endings bro, even mr mushroom ending is cannon atp

[earnest drift]

dream no more and embrace the void are possible

but i hate embrace the void so i hope it's dream no more

[light swan]

i dont think the black egg ones are likely canon are they

[odd marsh]

i forgor the names of them i just know hat happens lol

[odd marsh]

they might be as after beating gms we dont see the knight so he might be in the egg afterall

[neat remnant]

I hate you, so i hope it's gonna be embrace the void

[lavish apex]

the black egg ones are like pretty strictly not canon

[light swan]

see this is why LeonHK is the goat

[odd marsh]

i dont liek them anywas

[light swan]

no offense to lace ofc

[latent terrace]

That's silkcism

[earnest drift]

i also hate me, we should be friends

[light swan]

eva bossfight when

[latent terrace]

Not all silk beings are the same

[odd marsh]

very much offense to lace, took me 15 tries to beat lace 2, but lsot lace took me like 4 tries

[lavish apex]

embrace the void is kind of just a whatever ending

dream no more is pretty beautiful

[earnest drift]

someone said earlier that the knight purposely destroyed the black egg in dream no more so hornet wouldn't be trapped, is that true

[odd marsh]

yep

[lavish apex]

it's honestly up there with my other favorites

[worldly lake]

lacism

[lavish apex]

in games

[still osprey]

Dream No More is great

[odd marsh]

no evidence i would say

[still osprey]

Embrace the Void is kinda 😴 as an ending like I don't gaf about godseemer man

[lavish apex]

yeah

[earnest drift]

godseeker is the only part of godhome i like because she's a funny cringey fangirl

[odd marsh]

but the absrad fight ending was lowkey aura

[earnest drift]

everything else is ajdbcshcksjdvnlmfv

[still osprey]

Yea if only the fight itself was good too

[earnest drift]

team cherry don't make pantheon of pharloom give an alternate ending to sister of the void and my life is yours

[odd marsh]

i mean ur right but i practiced normla radiance on radiant fo rlike 2 hrs so i didint have much issues i beat P5 in like 2 hrs

[odd marsh]

YES PLEASE

sea of sorry gonna be peak

[latent terrace]

Hornet become the Weaver queen from the silk of GMS and save Pharloom alongside with Lace ahh ending

[odd marsh]

sorrow*

[earnest drift]

ughhhh

still no matter what they do i really, really doubt they could screw it up more than hk godhome

[odd marsh]

i would like to see what abilites she gets after being the weaver queen tho, too intruiging

[trim estuary]

team cherry please add an alternate act 3 🙏

[still osprey]

If the final boss is anything but Lost Lace or some GMS variant I will kill someone

[latent terrace]

Grandfather Groal

[odd marsh]

lol

[latent terrace]

[earnest drift]

as much as i love lace i don't want her to be the final boss of the pantheon

absolute gms would be fine

[still osprey]

As long as she's done well and not like absrad, yes

[trim estuary]

prime gms or prime first sinner for final boss‼️

[odd marsh]

dude shade lord fight would be crazy

as the final boss

[earnest drift]

hk godhome is so awful that no matter what sk does i sincerely doubt it'll be as bad as hk godhome

[trim estuary]

i'd like a weaver dlc but tc hates weavers so

[still osprey]

Shade Lord fight would make me kill myself

[lavish apex]

it should be something wholly unique or upgraded gms

[light swan]

awakened gms PLEASE

[odd marsh]

shadelord

[earnest drift]

i'd rather shade lord didn't appear but if they do it has to be a bossfight

[latent terrace]

The three Pinstress sisters at once

[latent terrace]

Along with Shakra and her master

[earnest drift]

what did i do to deserve this hate

[still osprey]

Kill people

[earnest drift]

silksong handles void better than hollow knight did

[latent terrace]

No floor groal

[light swan]

yay balf life 2 time

[graceful cairn]

bad takes on literally everything...

[trim estuary]

a void given focus boss literally would not happen unless they decide to further screw with TK/the void/shade lord/voidheart lore again
fighting a boss ALONGSIDE it would be... fine, i guess but still

[light swan]

lace what do you think of lacelight

[earnest drift]

beautiful idea i love lace being a protagonist

[light swan]

boom, good take

[latent terrace]

That's not lace anymore

That's phantom

[graceful cairn]

grrrr

[light swan]

moon i didnt notice youre still clorded up

based and valid

[graceful cairn]

I'm flip flopping ngl

[earnest drift]

lace beating tf out of lifeblood god

[light swan]

dont know for sure? or or is there another meaning to flip flopping

[lavish apex]

i kinda wanna see the twisted child in silkhome

[crisp heron]

man these rosary string prices sure are bad huh

[earnest drift]

silksong becomes a multiverse

[latent terrace]

Welcome to inflation

[keen solstice]

They're pretty useless anyways

[latent terrace]

Or is it capitalism?

[graceful cairn]

I'm unsure so I keep changing lol

[light swan]

@lavish apex blasphemous 2 spoilers

[light swan]

ah

why are blasphemous elevators so much slower than mio elevators

[lavish apex]

are they?

[light swan]

why is there no miasmic lance in blasphemous :(

[lavish apex]

i've never noticed that

how are you feeling about the game so far

[light swan]

very good

probably 7th or 8th on my list

[weary gorge]

Unpopular opinion

But that silksong game is pretty solid

[earnest drift]

better than hk

[weary gorge]

I hate to say it but I agree

[still osprey]

i fucking HATE silksong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[weary gorge]

Hk wins just a bit in vibe tho imo

[lavish apex]

worse than hk but fantastic and deserving of almost every ounce of praise it gets

[lavish latch]

green prince having a male partner was not on my silksong bingo card

also that is NOT a bad thing

[weary gorge]

I like it more personally but I think people will like it more once it gets dlc to bring it up to hk

[lavish apex]

my preference for hk is shrinking a little bit though

[weary gorge]

We've all been here for awhile lol I bet you're safe to spoil now

[lavish latch]

fair, i dont want to take any chances tho 😭

[glacial kelp]

this channel allows spoilers youre fine

[earnest drift]

what silksong bosses do you not want to be in the final pantheon

[lavish latch]

oh ok nvm

[weary gorge]

Thats how it went for me too

[glacial kelp]

they should add markoth to silksong

[weary gorge]

I want all the smoke

[still osprey]

Lace 1

[lavish apex]

after my first run of silksong frankly it wasn't close for me but the patches and my replays have been steadily improving my opinion of it

[trim estuary]

they should have lace 1 but at like half health phantom also drops in and then we get the inevitable lace/phantom duo fight

[lavish apex]

and now it is

[glacial kelp]

lace 1 at half health dies in like one spell

[trim estuary]

who balanced this game bro

[earnest drift]

idk about this duo

it seems unbalanced given how much more importance lace has

it's like a hollow knight and broken vessel duo bossfight

i hate the greenpath vessel

[lavish apex]

phantom deserves a godhome upgrade

[trim estuary]

okay well, youre not wrong but lace and phantom's moveset would work much better for a duo fight than thk & bv

[earnest drift]

how come

[still osprey]

What are your predictions for pantheon exclusive bosses? Besides Vespa, that one's basically guaranteed...

[lavish apex]

gms upgrade feels like a shoein

[earnest drift]

shakra's master, prime phantom, absolute grand mother silk, THREE cogwork clappers

[queen acorn]

pale stag no floor

[lavish apex]

seamstress could work

[earnest drift]

also winged skull tyrant

[lavish apex]

double beastfly because team cherry loves to fuck with us

[rocky jolt]

hk nails the melancholic feel

[trim estuary]

maybe harder versions of the old hearts?

[rocky jolt]

Heh. get it. Nail. that was unintentional

[earnest drift]

i don't know why this is necessary

[trim estuary]

funny

[earnest drift]

it feels unnatural, the way we fight them is already their prime

yeah all of them are easy but so is the entire game

[normal bramble]

Doubt

For the reasons lace said

[covert bridge]

GUYS I GOT TWISTED CHILD

[earnest drift]

water it twice a day but not when it rains

[normal bramble]

I wouldn’t be suprised if we get a trobbio 3

[sinful yarrow]

Dude is there anything else in bellhart or is this all

[lavish apex]

ok hear me out

[earnest drift]

and use nitrogen rich fertiliser

[normal bramble]

For the pantheon

[sinful yarrow]

Because I can't find this bell

[covert bridge]

Wdym

[lavish apex]

coggies + green prince

at the same time

[earnest drift]

to raise your new twisted child

[covert bridge]

Cool

[light swan]

something niche that i slightly dislike, switching weapons removes all of the bars you built up

[earnest drift]

this would be fun

[sinful yarrow]

I thought I needed sinners road spent like 3 hours there ran around bilewater nothing there spent like 30 mins searching bellhart nothing there

[light swan]

makes switching feel a bit discouraged

[lavish apex]

that's fair

[normal bramble]

What are you looking for???

[sinful yarrow]

The bellhart bell

[normal bramble]

?

Did you not fight widow?

[still osprey]

The entrance is through Shellwood

[sinful yarrow]

I don't know here window is at

[normal bramble]

Also ya you enter via shellwood

[trim estuary]

window left the server a while ago

[light swan]

i know everyone hates my roguelike pantheon idea but itd be cool

[still osprey]

Wait fr?

[trim estuary]

I BEEN SAYING ROGUELITE PANTHEONS!!!!

[queen acorn]

nya

[weary gorge]

Yeah if the vibes werent so incredible I wouldnt have been as excited for silksong. Prob my top 2 games of all time

[sinful yarrow]

There's no open spots on the shellwood map either that would indicate any sort of passage

[normal bramble]

Nope just go hit random walls on the right side of shellwood

[queen acorn]

destinyyy haiaiaiai

[normal bramble]

Holaaa carol

[light swan]

no i came up with it 😡 all this means is that you understand elite ball knowledge hto

[queen acorn]

hruuu

[lavish apex]

roguelite pantheons could be cool

[normal bramble]

Doing fine hbuuuu

[queen acorn]

tired

[trim estuary]

yeah he was gone for a year, briefly returned for silksong release, and then hasnt been seen since

[sinful yarrow]

Can we not with the random breakable walls it makes you run would pointlessly for hours for no reason it's so annoying just to find out it's a fucking wall your meant to break

[earnest drift]

what does roguelite mean

[queen acorn]

grace reference

[still osprey]

Damn...

[earnest drift]

is that like putting all the bosses out on a map you have to traverse to fight them

and if you die you restart the entire thing

[normal bramble]

Uhhh

[earnest drift]

like one boss per room

[normal bramble]

Yes but with meta progression

[trim estuary]

roguelite means permadeath (or like you have to completely restart a run) but with persistent upgrades
roguelike just means permadeath

[normal bramble]

Basically you run through a playthrough and if you die you reset but you can get permanent upgrades to help

[earnest drift]

so after sister splinter, you get wall climb, after widow, you get needolin?

[light swan]

start with 0 masks, spool extenders, needle upgrades, or abilities
each run you select a random path through the game, fighting through random chosen earlygame bosses and selecting random pickups to progress your upgrades
this means that every run through the pantheon will be different and itll bring difficulty to earlygame bosses while allowing you to skip bosses like zango, palestag, and voltvyrmm
strategically select the route and the upgrades you wanna get until you max yourself out and reach the final bosses

[trim estuary]

my idea of a roguelite/like pantheon is random bosses and gauntlets and you start with all your movement abilities and a crest and have to unlock tools/silk skills

[earnest drift]

this is a great idea of including all the garbage bosses without the player being forced to fight them

[normal bramble]

I think it would be better if you got certain movement abilities at certain points in the pantheon

[light swan]

also adds decision making into it and allows for super unique builts

[rocky jolt]

so cute

[light swan]

clawline before dash for example, or picking what best fits your playstyle

[normal bramble]

However after you get the movement ability the boss pool changes

[light swan]

like some people may rush masks as soon as they see them

[lavish apex]

let stuff scale above what you can get normally too

[light swan]

that could be interesting

[normal bramble]

Damn silksong roguelite really does sound hella fun

[delicate temple]

Why can lace climb the wall that’s actually unfair

[earnest drift]

she's lace

[delicate temple]

And people talking about nerfing stuff for hornet

[normal bramble]

I mean you can do it so

She just said “alr bet”

[delicate temple]

A child with no experience vs an experienced hunter that’s centuries old

[light swan]

poph will be less about "can you beat every boss in a row" and more about "how far can you get" and stuff

[normal bramble]

Imagine lace with any actual training

[rocky jolt]

radiant instead of making boss one shot you it removes the floor

[earnest drift]

lace has been killing people for just as long as hornet

[normal bramble]

Because she has absolutely zero formal training

[light swan]

itll still be about can you beat a run but for more people its like how far into the run can you get

[earnest drift]

but yeah as far as we know no one trained her

so it's a wonder how she's a decent fencer

all her experience in "fighting" is killing defenceless pilgrims

[normal bramble]

Phantom and her both learned counters by themselves

[earnest drift]

and citadel soldiers but they're weak

[normal bramble]

Actually how in the WORLD did phantom learn to fight?

[earnest drift]

no idea

[rocky jolt]

i honestly think i could take groal on a fight

[normal bramble]

She was banished to exhaust organ

[light swan]

@lavish apex are these the babies ive been collecting throughout the game
BLASPHEMOUS 2 SPOILERS

[earnest drift]

they're bugs you could take all of them

[queen acorn]

yk what i think

[lavish apex]

yes

[rocky jolt]

we dont gotta think logically

[earnest drift]

maybe not at the same time though

[queen acorn]

first sinner could neg diff all of the hollow knight server

[light swan]

why is this baby so big

[queen acorn]

cz shes so angry shes gonna get it cancled

[normal bramble]

Her true sin

[rocky jolt]

a singular skarr scout vs all of hallownest

[normal bramble]

Getting the entire server deleted

[lavish apex]

he's the big baby

the baby that's big

[queen acorn]

yep

[light swan]

what is he, some kind of boss baby?

[normal bramble]

Ima be real

[queen acorn]

skarr scout COULD win if dung defender didnt exist

[sinful yarrow]

Jesus fucking Christ widow holy hell

[normal bramble]

I feel like one of those huge skarrs that Karmelita summons right before you fight her

[sharp agate]

Will we get Kingdom Hearts 4 this year?

[normal bramble]

Could almost run the entirety of Hollow knight

[queen acorn]

true

[normal bramble]

Like what would 99% of hallownest do

[queen acorn]

i mean

hallownest is dead as shit they cant DO much

[normal bramble]

Oh this is kinda fun

100% dead kingdom vs 80% dead kingdom

[delicate temple]

Like in a row it’s so frustrating

[light swan]

i think its kind of fun

kind of fun > very fun

[rocky jolt]

one skull tyrant would absolutely destroy white palace probs

[lavish apex]

nah the kingsmoulds got that

[rocky jolt]

one skull tyrant and a choir clapper

[light swan]

this story confuses me

this is definitely shulk speaking

[sinful yarrow]

THAT WAS FUN

yeah that's natural man

His boss was super easy though

Window is great I love him

[sinful yarrow]

O h I died

LMAO I THOUGHT IT WAS OVER THATS SO FUNNY

[queen acorn]

one week

[normal bramble]

?

[graceful cairn]

yes lol

[light swan]

im so confused

[queen acorn]

tuff

[normal bramble]

Like bosses just not in it or what bosses do you want to see in it

[graceful cairn]

i think im just settling on genderfluid atp 😭

[queen acorn]

does this mean every gender at once

[earnest drift]

for me the main ones are pale stag, zango, moss mothers, voltvyrm and garmond and zaza

[normal bramble]

Oh ok not in it

[queen acorn]

you fool! i have unleashed 100% of my potential and i am ALL genders at once!!!

[normal bramble]

Zango and bell eater

[earnest drift]

no those are the ones i want in it

/j

[sinful yarrow]

Everyone is gay now just like me get with the times

[queen acorn]

pale stag will have no floor

[normal bramble]

Pale stag in the Nyleth arena

[queen acorn]

i KNOW pale stag will have no floor it absoloutely wont

[normal bramble]

However made 3x wider

[queen acorn]

you can quote me on this

and watcher on the edge will be the next markoth

[normal bramble]

Anyways I really hope we get lace 2 + phantom

[graceful cairn]

nah

[light swan]

pale stag with no floor would be fun assuming theres no platforms either

[queen acorn]

exactly

maybe pale stag will be an actually fuckin fun boss

[earnest drift]

are you serious

[queen acorn]

are you joking

[light swan]

its because you can pogo tthe blades

[normal bramble]

No walls either just turn pale stag into flea bounce on steroids

[earnest drift]

oh

[light swan]

itd be really fun

[queen acorn]

hehehehe

[rocky jolt]

dont drink the water they put sumthing innit to make ya forget

[lavish apex]

that is dove guy

[light swan]

and dove guy is shulk right

[lavish apex]

yea

[light swan]

thats so awesome

dove guy is my favorite

[lavish apex]

his actual name is the witness

[light swan]

yea thats what wikipedia said

when i searched up adam howden in blasphempous 2

[sinful yarrow]

i beat widow that was easy

and a extremely fun bos

[lavish apex]

anyways if you were worried about being done around this point don't be

[harsh yarrow]

Yeah, you can infact hear the bay in Weavenest Murglin, disabled the waterfall sfx for this though

[light swan]

yea theres definitely a lot more i think

[earnest drift]

is widow still fun with all upgrades

[lavish apex]

probably with a lot more health

i'd imagine she dies really fast otherwise

[earnest drift]

is her moveset still fun

[sinful yarrow]

i found out the second stage was easier if you hug her

[light swan]

everything is easier if you hug them

[lavish apex]

i mean yeah i don't think clawline or faydown would really damage the fight at all mechanically

[sinful yarrow]

TOOO THE CITADEL

atlaest its not shaded

im in a roblxo vc with heavily intoxicated strangers help

[light swan]

why is there completely untelegraphed hidden walls in blasphemous lol

didnt expect that

[lavish apex]

they are usually telegraphed just in a different way from how most games do it

that said i don't like them very much

[light swan]

idk some of them are like with hidden black glow/fade but theres some which i just accidentally find

idk how many arent shown on the map

[delicate temple]

I thought there was an act 3

[foggy tapir]

does he know?

[light swan]

nope it was all a silkpost

[delicate temple]

But I’m fighting grandmother silk is she not the final boss?

[light swan]

she is

[foggy tapir]

go through the pale palace just not with the buzzsaws thats how you access it

[lavish apex]

she can be

[foggy tapir]

thoroughly clear the game

all im saying ok?

[rocky jolt]

[light swan]

can this game just give me a triple jump already

[lavish apex]

maybe

[light swan]

maybe i should stop backtracking and explore new stuff

[lavish apex]

maybe

[cerulean sable]

i cried when Horjnet said
"That is bullsilk Silking. In my Song im Silking"

[lavish apex]

guilty gear silk

[graceful oyster]

It's difficult to get my friends to play 9S because it is very expensive

This is saddening

[lavish apex]

me waiting for a switch sale

the last one was about 3 months ago and they seem to happen about every 3 months so perhaps Soonge

on the other hand outer wilds is on sale now

[graceful oyster]

Outer Wilg

Good game

[sinful yarrow]

how the FUCK did they make silksong runbacks worse than the original

who the hell made this fuckass runback for the last judge

[lavish apex]

i don't think they are

last judge runback is very quick and fun if you know the good route

experiment a little bit

[thin charm]

last judge runback was 2x as hard release patch

[lavish apex]

literally all they did was get rid of one driznit?

[delicate temple]

How do I get the upwards version of clawline?

[white sinew]

||act 3 in the abyss||

and its a upwards c dash

[sharp slate]

i honestly dont really remeber runbacks in hk tthough tbh, maybe nosk...

[lavish apex]

hive knight and soul master both had miserable ones

[sharp slate]

soul master fair forgot, hive knight i forgot because dream gate go brrr

[lavish apex]

hive knight is like half of the entire area at best

without dream gate

that's fair actually silksong doesn't have it

[sharp slate]

yea ik, just by that point i had it so i didnt even think of it

god tamer runback 😎

[earnest drift]

was traitor lord's runback bad i don't remember it

i insisted on using sharp shadow for traitor lord so the parkour was bad

[sharp slate]

its not bad tbh

top bench

[lavish apex]

i have no idea because going through that would require dying to traitor lord

[sharp slate]

wait is there no bench top of QG

i guess not weird

no enemies just parkour

[lavish apex]

i wish there was a real dream gate in silksong

[balmy cave]

THIS

[lavish apex]

not sure how the hell it would work in lore

but i miss it

[jade swallow]

Hitting the mr mushroom vape

[balmy cave]

god I forgot to grab something at the end of putrid ducts today and I swear my soul left my body when I had to backtrack

[jade swallow]

Would’ve been a neat feature with the beastlings

They’ll probably add something adjacent in an update

[light swan]

was dream gate a dlc thin

[lavish apex]

hidden dreams

act 3 is just too short for beastling call to feel impactful

and you can't set a custom spot

and it doesn't make sense

[light swan]

good thing theres gonna be more act 3 content in dlc probs

[lavish apex]

hopefully

man i want sea of sorrow now

[vivid belfry]

Hello gang

[tacit relic]

Haii.

Cute profile.

[light swan]

herllo grover

[vivid belfry]

Guys I hate to be annoying in the same way I always am

But something happened

[light swan]

what does this mea

saeko is going to switch?

[undone gate]

I hope the DLC has bosses which are as hard or harder than Act 3 bosses

[vivid belfry]

I mean that's been the case for a while but the official account followed me on Twitter

[pallid plinth]

I love giantesses

[steel pumice]

I just died in Act 3 in Steel Soul. That's enough Silksong for a month.

[undone gate]

That's rough what did you die to

[vivid belfry]

Probably void gauntlet

[light swan]

OH holy shit thats kinda crazy

probably, that sounds crazy

[vivid belfry]

It's because I'm the only motherfucker in the world drawing fanart 😭

[steel pumice]

Honestly, myself. Was doing the Alchemist quest, trying to hit those lifeblood worms with the phile. But then got combo'd that both shattered my protective mask and killed me

[lavish apex]

oh

it's getting a switch version

huh...

[vivid belfry]

The box art for the physical edition is fucking nuts

[queen acorn]

bass da da da da da

[vivid belfry]

This is the most hype moments and aura you can get for a story that absolutely does not lend itself to hype moments and aura

[lavish apex]

the pixel art mixed with the normal painting is cool

[queen acorn]

why is she so real and the other so pixelated

[vivid belfry]

In reality the whole game is pixel art but the two halves are rendered in different art styles, so I think this is an interesting way to approximate that

Also probably representative of the imbalance of agency

[queen acorn]

damn

[light swan]

im confused about how blasphemous's map works in the 3rd world

[vivid belfry]

Don't think too hard about it

[light swan]

this area is metroidvania hell

[queen acorn]

[vivid belfry]

Oh I thought you meant in 3D

[light swan]

like

heres my map currently

[queen acorn]

why is the map so map

[light swan]

according to my brain, the ||crown of towers|| on the right is the center

theres a massive wall with battlements and fancy towers and stuff around the center, which si the ||elevated temple|| on the right
