[timid grotto]

i dieddd

i never used silk spear in my life

like only at the bell beast

[edgy patio]

well you have to use it because it's literally really good

[glossy arch]

[edgy patio]

it deals alot of damage

[timid grotto]

im nail focused

[edgy patio]

u need to get used to silk skills that's why

[timid grotto]

never used them

[edgy patio]

they can be really useful in alot of situations

[glossy arch]

this aint hollow knight lil bro you will NEED silk skills in the game

[edgy patio]

stop talking and go try kill the boss

[edgy patio]

yea exactly

[timid grotto]

shes on the roof so how can i attack

[edgy patio]

silk skills will make you more skilled if u get used to them

[edgy patio]

don't use it on her

use it on the enemies she summons

[glossy arch]

she will send roots and when she does you have to attack those

[sly grail]

Is witch crest really good or really awful against GMS?

[glossy arch]

mb

[sly grail]

Because i can't tell lmao

[edgy patio]

just needle her until she dies and use silk spear for enemies

[edgy patio]

it's good

[glossy arch]

not a witch crest user so i cant help here

[timid grotto]

BROOOOO SHE JUST STAGGERED INTO MY FACE

[edgy patio]

but you should use bind when gms is stuck in an animation where u won't get hit

[sly grail]

Thats not the issue primarily im having

[edgy patio]

lmaoo i just imagined that in my headd

[sly grail]

The main issue im having is she moves so much that i cant hit her with the bind lmao

[timid grotto]

i was healing too

[edgy patio]

yeah when u see her falling dodge then hit her

also don't use silk skills when bosses are staggered

because it's useless and does no damage only use silk skill when the boss isn't staggered

[timid grotto]

this lwk ez but i suck smh

[edgy patio]

yeah that's why you gotta wait for her to be stuck in an animation like throwing needles down

[timid grotto]

at least i do fourth chorus 2 tries 😭

[edgy patio]

trust me you'll get alot better the more you play the game like ALOT better

also she is not your main worry..

don't spoill for him

[timid grotto]

[edgy patio]

break them so that you don't get trapped

[glossy arch]

🤫

[timid grotto]

is bro gonna accuse me of bugslaugter until i die

[edgy patio]

[charred tiger]

and that's how i failed p5 on pure vessel

[edgy patio]

damn

[timid grotto]

same on like 7 p4 tries

almost radiant'ed that shitty guy

but wrong channel

[edgy patio]

pantheon 5 is really easy when you already did every boss radiant

which is what i did heh

probably the only thing that made me way better at video games

thank you markoth for giving me a massive skill boost

[keen briar]

the only boost markoth did for me is an ego boost

[timid grotto]

SO MUCH MINIONS

[keen briar]

now i suck at hollow knight

[edgy patio]

silk spearrr

guys ||volt vessels|| will be SO USEFUL in sea of sorrow dlc

[timid grotto]

markoth gave me headacue

headache* my spelling sucks

[charred tiger]

we've been tolerating hornet killing everyone because they are just bugs
but what about craws

[edgy patio]

eh markoth is NOT THAT HARD compared to fricking ||plasmified zango|| radiant (KILLING HIM THE NORMAL WAY.)

[sly grail]

OK nvm fuck doing this with witch crest beast crest is so good with this holy SHIT lmao

[charred tiger]

[glossy arch]

EYHEHYEHYHEYHE

[timid grotto]

[timid grotto]

[glossy arch]

SPOILERS

[remote talon]

descending into the dark...

[glossy arch]

At least mark it

[edgy patio]

dude sister splinter is like the EASIEST boss in the game

[timid grotto]

dash into the shade

[edgy patio]

you are not tuff.

[remote talon]

spoilers are allowed here, game's been out for over half a year

[glossy arch]

oh yeah i forgor

[timid grotto]

bro let me cry let me cry

[remote talon]

like a shaded soul

[edgy patio]

listen.

[timid grotto]

like an abyss's shriek

[edgy patio]

[remote talon]

holow knight

[edgy patio]

i do have a silksong server but uhh I don't want mods to nuke my house so if both of yall wanna join just come to dms.. 😈 /j

[sly grail]

Sister splinter is annoying af but very easy once you get her thing

[edgy patio]

ikr

[timid grotto]

ima quit my silksong journey because of sister splinter

ts hard asf

[edgy patio]

you are missing out on 99.99999999999999999999999999% of the game

you cannot let sister splinter break you you have to break her first

[timid grotto]

actually, 99.99999999999999999999999998% cuz i met the singing guy

[timid grotto]

ill break nkg first

[edgy patio]

which guy

[timid grotto]

sherma

[edgy patio]

oh sherma

[timid grotto]

the guy using song to open gates

[edgy patio]

he gets an awesome character arc if you progress through the game and pay attention to the lore

[silk monolith]

this jit uses the power of music

[edgy patio]

but you gotta kill sister splinter if you wanna see that

[remote talon]

lost lace is pretty fun as is but the huge amount of damage is really unnecessary, especially double contact damage

[timid grotto]

anyways lace's movement is like hornet, is there any chance there will be lace sentinel

[silk monolith]

no you dont

[edgy patio]

SECRET TUNNEL!

[timid grotto]

well ill hop back then bruh

[edgy patio]

yea u do

[timid grotto]

just for sherma

[remote talon]

you know whats better than 2 lace fights

[silk monolith]

no

[timid grotto]

oh noes

[edgy patio]

this is his first playthrough so skipping sister splinter will be lame

[sly grail]

The 2nd lace fight is some hot cheeks btw

[silk monolith]

ho? lmao

[edgy patio]

ho ho

[silk monolith]

its peak

[timid grotto]

dang guess thats a chokepoint

[edgy patio]

nah the intro is so PEKAKKKKK

[timid grotto]

lace sucks

[silk monolith]

best boss room by a mile

[sly grail]

Oh yeah for SURE

The fight itself would be INCREDIBLE as well

[edgy patio]

the intro is actually so good

[sly grail]

Its just its so fucking buggy lmao

[silk monolith]

kilometer for non US

[edgy patio]

best transition?

[silk monolith]

wrong reoly

[timid grotto]

i never watched ppl play silksong before, so im going spoiler-free, which means i will be stuck at haunted bellhart for hours

[sly grail]

I pogod there xD

[timid grotto]

thats some fast shits

[edgy patio]

unsurprising lace glaze coming from someone who's username is lace

[sly grail]

Yeah thing is im p sure that attack is unparriable

[timid grotto]

shouldve spammed F + up button

[silk monolith]

she initiated the slashes at the same time

[sly grail]

As in you literally cannot parry it due to a bug

[timid grotto]

throwing shurikens

[edgy patio]

going silksong blind is actually peak ngl

[edgy patio]

simo is typing...

[meager jolt]

So you should probably leave here, then

[stable fjord]

Sit on the bellhart bench and save&quit

[timid grotto]

hate it, i get lost so much, when i lose my 300 rosaries and dont have a map

[charred pulsar]

This is a known issue, notably with Witch down attack. It's noted internally to be investigated!

[silk monolith]

yeah twin the range goes above her too

[edgy patio]

the goat simo

[silk monolith]

oh wait i keep forgetting ion use witch

[sly grail]

That's great to hear, however i'd like to mention this isn't unique to the witch down attack

[silk monolith]

I thiught skill issue lmao nah I shouldn't assume

[edgy patio]

no lace is ass slop buns sloppy cheese lace garbage filthy

[timid grotto]

whats the best crest to use? normal, reaper or wanderer

[meager jolt]

I went completely blind (quit the internet in September, didn't come back until January when I finished 2 save files with 100%), it was so amazing

[edgy patio]

ikr

1 sec

[timid grotto]

imo wanderer is the best (i mean best of every crest, idc what crest i will get later)

[charred pulsar]

Yeah not unique to Witch, but notably to Witch as it's more apparent/reported with Witch

Partially Lace's fault too!

[timid grotto]

cuz pogoing is easy 🤣

[sly grail]

Ah, yeah, fair enough lol

[edgy patio]

#hk-general message

[glossy nebula]

Hello

[charred pulsar]

If you encounter anymore issues, feel free to report them here https://teamcherry.notion.site/12c63da3a1a780f4a8cfd8441a243a6e

[sly grail]

There's also a separate behavior, intentional or not i don't know, where her attacks have hitboxes behind her, which makes her unable to get hit for damage during some of her attacks because attacking her even from behind just causes Hornets attack to just get parried instead lol

Oh, thank you for that link

[edgy patio]

the goat... WHITE PEACH REDBULLLL™

[sly grail]

Nope lmao

[glossy nebula]

Wait today I experienced a bug

If you get eaten by void thingies

[meager jolt]

Doesn't work for me :(

[glossy nebula]

And during the swallow, youe on your last hp

And you have the carefree melody

And it triggers

[edgy patio]

idk

[glossy nebula]

You turn invisible even to enemies

[sly grail]

Ofc xD

[timid grotto]

carefree melody in sil kong?

[edgy patio]

the glazeeee

[glossy nebula]

The equivilent

[main urchin]

those slashes are magnetic or smth

[glossy nebula]

Dice thing

[edgy patio]

yes it exists and it's actually so useful

[glossy nebula]

But triggering a transition returns hornet to normal

And I dont have the mental capacity to retrigger it

[timid grotto]

do i have to banish grimm for carefree melody in sil kong?

[glossy nebula]

You need to gamble

[edgy patio]

yes

noooooo

bro i thought he was talking about hk

[glossy nebula]

Gamble with that guy in blasted steps

[meager jolt]

Grimm is not in Silksong

Tragically

[glossy nebula]

Ok where to report bugs

And do the devs see them

[edgy patio]

you can gamble for it, find it for free (but the gambling way is actually fun but i didn't understand it at first..)

[glossy nebula]

Because this was so surprising

[edgy patio]

they are working on the dlc

they won't release any new patches until the dlc releases

[meager jolt]

It does feel like her attacks suck you in ngl...

[glossy nebula]

But they are releasing patches to normal hk

And also silksong

A patch came out not long ago

[main urchin]

And she parries SO MUCH

[meager jolt]

That was the last one until Sea of Sorrow

[median fractal]

I am such a big wanderer crest hater that I NOT so humbly deny your claim

[glossy nebula]

Oh

[edgy patio]

nah silksong patches are not getting released anymore because they said the dlc will release next then after that they will release patches

[glossy nebula]

So sea of sorrow soon?

[median fractal]

Hunter's crest is the objective peak of Silksong

[glossy nebula]

Yes

[meager jolt]

I hope so

[median fractal]

I'd guess like June because they said they had more in store for 2026

[edgy patio]

my prediction is april 15 - june 31

[meager jolt]

Yeah...

[median fractal]

Or maybe they had another announcement not another update but yeah

[glossy nebula]

Hunters crest especially after healing is the best for me

[median fractal]

Happy that we've reached an agreement 🤝

[lucid trellis]

only if your good at doging

[edgy patio]

yea for hk they released 4 dlcs within 2 years so 2 dlc within 1 year but tc is now rich so they could make alot of dlcs for silksong within 1 year depending on how large the dlc could be

[lucid trellis]

i, am not, so I like wanderer soni can heal more

[meager jolt]

Or! They could take their time with making each DLC

[timid grotto]

how do ppl beat this game with 5%????

completion

[lucid trellis]

Reverse tryharding

[hybrid flare]

actually more tryharding required than 100%

[edgy patio]

they already have scraps to work with to make sea of sorrow, such example is: (6 year old cutscene lmao)

[edgy patio]

as the champion of fool said himself. skill.

[median fractal]

Call me a certified skong copium rotted individual but the way I interpret Silksong's life span until TC stops with the franchise for the years to come is that we'll likely see all backer content that hasnt made it in yet and all things they still want to cover as they likely won't make another game at this point lol. But they can take their time now so we'll see how long we'll be here for

[main urchin]

And then like half a decade down the line we get Godmaster

[lucid trellis]

I think skong has been the first game ive 100%ed

[median fractal]

Hollow Knight's dev cycle was likely cut in the middle due to the beginning of Silksong's development rather than them choosing to end HK development

[edgy patio]

pretty sure there will be hk3 look at the mister mushroom ending it's to be continued so there 100% will be and also sea of sorrow dlc wasn't meant to be a dlc because they didn't have enough time to implement it in the bade game you can know this if you look at the sketches for the map.

[meager jolt]

Scrapped concepts need to be heavily reworked if one wants to add them back in as they tend to be scrapped for a reason, so even though having a concept at all is helpful, that doesn't mean there's (that much) work completed already

[edgy patio]

if they have scraps to work with it means we don't need mini 7 years for each dlc to release we only need a couple of months because tc is now skilled at game dev'ing

[lucid trellis]

"welcome aboard captain, all systems online" ahh submarine

[edgy patio]

why would they make a teaser then if they are 1% completed with the dlc...

[meager jolt]

That's true...(what is mini 7 years?)

[median fractal]

Due to what they had recently ish said on an interview, I am led to believe that they put it there either as a "in case we make hk 3" or as a "to be continued in our next non hk game"

[edgy patio]

1 volt vessel in the sea filled with sorrow and there will be no more tomorrow..

[meager jolt]

Why would Team Cherry announce Silksong 7 years too early

[edgy patio]

mini 7 years is my way of saying it won't take that long to make a dlc basically they don't have to take their time with it because they will already be done making it

[meager jolt]

People keep talking about this interview, but I can't seem to find it. May I have a link?

[median fractal]

They said they'd happily make more Hollow Knight but they can only make a couple of games in their remaining career time so they wanna make something else

[lucid trellis]

time for the path of inconvenience

[edgy patio]

the lore hasn't ended so i refuse to believe hk3 won't exist.

[median fractal]

I dont have a link but iirc ir was on bloomberg? Maybe I'll find it when I am on my pc in a few minutes

[edgy patio]

uhm

[meager jolt]

Thank you

[edgy patio]

WELL, you can ask team cherry hehe..

[still osprey]

Sea of Sorrow is literally coming out tomorrow

[median fractal]

Well depends on what lore. Sea of Sorrow likely will expand or conclude the stuff we need to know about Lifeblood and I guarantee you the city of steel thinf will be a Silksong DLC

[stable fjord]

Got through first arena of act 3 without savequitting.
Then at the "periods" Hornet remained fast and could use abilities. I managed to outrun the trapdoor breaking

[edgy patio]

there's a 50% chance for it to release tomorrow hopefully that 50% actually happens or it will be back to 0%

[stable fjord]

After pausing to record the bug, I lost the ability to do anything other then opening menus

[edgy patio]

those are not periods lmao they are more of a concussion she passes out

[edgy patio]

nice though

[timid grotto]

is there true ending in this game

[edgy patio]

i wish they would make a third game about city of steel because if they make it a dlc and actually make a third game idk where it could take place on

[edgy patio]

yes.

true canonical ending yes.

[timid grotto]

nice

[edgy patio]

and it's not like the trashy DNM ending

[stable fjord]

I didn't get the bug at second time

[edgy patio]

it's actually insane but if you get spoiled it you are actually cooked because it's such a big ending

[main urchin]

Motherhood theme???

[edgy patio]

no

hornet is a fucking bug btw

[glossy nebula]

No?

[edgy patio]

moving on..

[glossy nebula]

She is a plushie

[edgy patio]

yes.

[glossy nebula]

She is a plushie

[edgy patio]

she is you can squeeze her until you break her bones and kill her and shes dead

[glossy nebula]

Then she isnt a bug as they dont have bone

[edgy patio]

silkbone

[glossy nebula]

Pillow knught silkbone

[edgy patio]

also why are you flexing killing marissa? i've killed her too

[glossy nebula]

Is it ok that I kinda miss reaper crest

[glossy nebula]

It takes a big heart to

[edgy patio]

i slash her false existence into my dream nail that no longer exists because radiance is dead

[median fractal]

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2025-11-28/the-makers-of-hollow-knight-silksong-aren-t-done-just-yet should be this

A lot of interesting stuff in there

[glossy nebula]

Then you can flex it

But you dont because you regret it

[edgy patio]

it's not canonical ending and it's not cooler than delicate flower

[fair stag]

Oh, you are still here. Dont tell me you never left…

[glossy nebula]

It can be cannon tho

[edgy patio]

??? it's not

[glossy nebula]

Why

[toxic vigil]

Hello

[glossy nebula]

The knight could have ascended after hk

[edgy patio]

cus why not

[rose flax]

i wonder if it’s ever daytime on the surface above the cradle

[toxic vigil]

we are NOT doing ts discussion

[rose flax]

if EtV is canon then there’s the elephant in the room that is THK being alive and well which hornet never even mentions

[violet canopy]

Anyone knows a YouTube vid that explains the ending?

[edgy patio]

i don't believe tc with they're bullshit of "aLl eNdIngS cAn bE CanOnIcaL iN tHiEr oWN wAy" when in reality it's william and ari fighting over which ending is canonical so they decided to say the bs

[glossy nebula]

Why dont you want the hollow knight to be alive

[violet canopy]

I didn’t really get what’s going on with the knight there

[median fractal]

People are so convinced thwt if there was a 3rd game it'd be a character we're familiar with but I dont get why we cant just get a brand new character and brand new shit we havent seen before.

Like, imagine playing as some newborn Pale Being discovering the world or something.

And then to add to it, HK was about uniting the Void and Silksong was about disrupting it by striking at its core. So what if a hypothetical 3rd game had us coming to terms with it and accepting it

[glossy nebula]

It is just showing you he has both the embrace the void form and dream no more

[rose flax]

how is the knights character butchered

[chilly mountain]

Guys the best crest is the roaring crest

[left patrol]

how do i acquire permission to stream in voice channels? is there a certain level requirement from a bot?

[glossy nebula]

Why where they butchered if the knight ascends in godhome

[rose flax]

he had little character in the first place imo

[stark prism]

because thaat story would be too similar to silksong already

[glossy nebula]

300 messages

[left patrol]

got you, thanks

[toxic vigil]

like
we literally see the knight's void being here destroyed

[edgy patio]

eh that conceptional lore could be better i don't like coming terms with the void when we already spent 2 games more than 1 decade on the void

[stark prism]

everything that went down in pharloom is clearly a parallel to the what the pale king probably did

[rose flax]

it’s still alive as a shade

[toxic vigil]

okay so

1. embrace the void is meh
2. its still canon

[median fractal]

Sorry but what part of that is similar to silksong even? Not to mention I was just throwing some ideas out there

[violet canopy]

Yes I got that, but like, was the void lord responsible for everything that happened in act 3? Like the worlds state

[edgy patio]

shell destroyed, but void lives.

[glossy nebula]

It isnt, he is in the void, this is the mold of his shell

[toxic vigil]

we literally see the void the shade is made out of destroyed

[glossy nebula]

No

[toxic vigil]

we literally see the void the shade is made out of destroyed

[glossy nebula]

Act3 is just grand mommy silk not letting go

[rose flax]

where

[glossy nebula]

The knight was heading in that direction maybe to kill her or he felt hornet/delicate flower

[edgy patio]

obviously delicate flower ending is canonical because we see shade lord in silksong and his normal form which is the knight's shade

[median fractal]

I think void is just that important to the world of hollow knight. we still dont even know whats up with the civilization that worshipped it and we'll likely never know

[violet canopy]

But the void was taking over

[glossy nebula]

That is the mold

[toxic vigil]

the void near the mask

[glossy nebula]

This is a mold

[stark prism]

hornets story all the wishes how the bugs treat her, overthrowing the pale being and everything clearly parallels what must have happened that resulted in the foundation of hallownest.

[rose flax]

that’s literally just the lingering void from the black egg fading away in the cracks

[toxic vigil]

???

[glossy nebula]

Dont have an explanation yet

[edgy patio]

what about mister mushroom and whoever he is talking to and all the other kingdoms in the hollow knight universe

[glossy nebula]

The knight is made of a mold, a mask thing, and the shade

[violet canopy]

And that little frame where the knight looked like the void lord means the knight is now the void lord? And hornet saw him as the knight she remembers?

[median fractal]

I gotta say every time I see people say "clearly the delicate flower ending is the canon one because shade lord" I wanna scream

because I really do think they put the shade lord there simply to stay as true to "all endings are canon" as possible. Just, reducing it down to "the two major endings are equally canon"

[edgy patio]

get how pale king made kings molds and wings molds yeah we are basically the same thing

[toxic vigil]

including, the knight's shade

[glossy nebula]

Thats just the mold not the shade

[toxic vigil]

yeah and the shade is made out of void
and the void is there

[glossy nebula]

The shade joined the others, it happens in gameplay

[toxic vigil]

the mold is not made out of void???

[rose flax]

so what sense does it make that TK dies for good from shedding his outer shell and whipping the radiance but the other vessels can live on as shades

[violet canopy]

I just got confused by the part where the knight/void lord saved us from the void itself

[glossy nebula]

That is the mold, like the mold of any other being created by pale king

[edgy patio]

please scream i wanna hear you scream then i wanna destroy my ear drums so then i don't have to hear zote's voice when i launch hollow knight

[glossy nebula]

The shade lives within

The knight died and his shade went to the void kinda

[median fractal]

Clearly they did not plan for the knight to appear in Sister of the Void back when they stated that all HK endings are canon. They have clearly changed their mind since then but I do think they still wanted both Dream No More AND Embrace the Void to be canon

[rose flax]

i personally think that TK can only control the void near him, took him a bit to get from hallownests abyss to pharloom

[stark prism]

if the next storyline will be about a pale being emerging it will be nothing like silksong
the steel masters are apparently beyond them, i suspect they create pale beings for some metallurgical process and the ones that end up making kingdoms are the escapees/survivors

[toxic vigil]

well the rest of the siblings just were summoned there, but then they go back to being shades in the abyss
what is left of the knight is in the black egg and we see the void on the ground

[median fractal]

but lets be real I do not see a world where if 1 ending is canon it woudl be the most obscure ending that is only obtained by like 5% of (steam) players in the hardest challenge HK has to offer

[violet canopy]

Man it’s confusing as hell

[glossy nebula]

Thx for explanation lace

[median fractal]

Dream No More being the only canon ending makes so much more sense. But again I believe both are just equally canon

[glossy nebula]

Also, the knight dies in hk and this is his shade right

[rose flax]

the other siblings died too, but they live on as shades, but TK dies and apparently it’s shade dies too?

[edgy patio]

imo dnm is not canonical at allllll because the shade lord hasn't been summoned when he clearly appears in silksong hence delicate flower is canonical and that's what I think.

[violet canopy]

I though the whole point of ascending is that he became a god too

[toxic vigil]

kingsmolds actually you weren't able to encounter again after getting kingsoul bc the path of pain ones didn't exist

[glossy nebula]

It makes sense hornet becomes weak because of the black egg

[glossy nebula]

Which gives the citadel people a chance to kidnap her

[toxic vigil]

where would the shade just go though if it didn't

[violet canopy]

But true the embrace the void ending did look like he’s not fully controlling it, I just thought in the silksong timeline he already fully became the void lord

[stark prism]

it makes sense shes weakened in both options

[rose flax]

i just think it was supposed to be like a sign of untapped potential that godhome would’ve brought out

[glossy nebula]

How

She didnt enter the egg

[stark prism]

battle

[hidden sequoia]

what the hell is going on

[glossy nebula]

She is so much stronger than hollow kngiht

[rose flax]

back to the abyss like the other vessels who somehow appeared in the dream realm

[glossy nebula]

We missred the channel name

[median fractal]

well we still unite the void in Dream No More by acquiring the Void Heart which as far as I know is the one single requirement for the Knight to ascend to that form.
And it's not like the Shade lord is physically there, but we get it flashed on the screen for some reason.

[stark prism]

not in the og game and not than one freed of the infection

[edgy patio]

shade lord appear in silksong, no shade lord appear in dnm in hollow knight = FALSE BAD STUPID DUMB BAD ENDING

[toxic vigil]

they appeared because void heart....

[median fractal]

I'll believe that delicate flower is the only canon ending when we get hollow knight godhome in silksong and it's voided godhome

[rose flax]

then they teleport back to the abyss? what’s stopping TK from doing the same

[glossy nebula]

She is? Hollow knight is weak in the cutscene

[hidden sequoia]

nahh hollowknight is better only thing she have on him that dash

[foggy gulch]

silksong got me shivering in my timbers

[violet canopy]

Isn’t the sk true ending fits perfectly with the embrace the void ending tho?

[glossy nebula]

Hollow knight was nearly dead

In the egg

This is hornet sentinel

[violet canopy]

I love shade lord I hope he will be the final dlc boss

[toxic vigil]

umm because it entered the dream realm in the black egg

[edgy patio]

shade lord has to still be summoned by god seeker which can seek gods which one of them is the shade lord so i don't think by getting void heart you can summon shade lord without entering godhome

[violet canopy]

Why?

[rose flax]

also once again it makes no sense that the other vessels die and live on as shades, but when TK willingly sheds its shell its shade dies too after fucking up the radiance?

[toxic vigil]

don't want it to be =/= it isn't

[glossy nebula]

The egg is removed after they went to the void with radiance

[hidden sequoia]

well he is dead not nearly isn't it and shaww survived because of hollowknight

[rose flax]

why does it fit better

[violet canopy]

I thought it was cool getting all the way up tunning with the gods

[glossy nebula]

I hope we get a hollow knight dlc where the knight survives

[stark prism]

what makes ya say that? just cause damans stabs into the ground?

[violet canopy]

To the point the shade lord takes out prime absrad

[median fractal]

The problem with Embrace the Void for me is that its essentially a workaround for the black egg seals and we never even interact with the dreamers OR the hollow knight

[glossy nebula]

No, in the introductory cutscene

[edgy patio]

ahh yes hornet vs the knight definitely does not shatter reality at all but hey that would be a cool boss fight of getting absolutely demolished by the most powerful entity in hk (excluding the steel masters...)

[median fractal]

Why would the canon ending for the game franchise "Hollow Knight" be the one where the HOLLOW KNIGHT isnt present

[glossy nebula]

Like why does the knight always die

[edgy patio]

because as the champion of fools said himself:
why the fuck not.

[thorn sparrow]

I just kinda had a thought, why do the first sinner and the last judge have opposite names

[median fractal]

Is this like stated anywhere though? I am honestly not sure on Godhome lore personally

[stark prism]

fym?

[hidden sequoia]

these arent fact just love what you like

[glossy nebula]

Start a new save

The hollow knight shouts in pain for vessels to come take his place

Because he is weak

But he saved you

[stark prism]

yea cause he head done cracked and released the infection

[violet canopy]

Exactly

[stark prism]

the infection is whats weakening him

[glossy nebula]

Yep, but he still didnt rest on a bench

[violet canopy]

Imagine how crazy this boss will be

[stark prism]

and hmmm what is completely obliterated in that ending?

[hybrid flare]

shade lords mogs the entire verse and theres no dispute

[glossy nebula]

How

Just a single delicate flower can kill him

[hybrid flare]

so not real that it killed the kingdom

[hybrid flare]

we literally dont know what happened there lmao

[stark prism]

i think the steel masters with zero onscreen feats might be more powerful

[hybrid flare]

its the sharp razor liquid but now tk can control it

[violet canopy]

Do we know anything about shade lord and absrad history? Do they go way back to something?

[glossy nebula]

He goes somewhere, which ends with him being stuck in the void 24/7

[hybrid flare]

Absrad IS the real radiance fym

[edgy patio]

because so he can access his stronger form the shade lord and save hornet in silksong otherwise if he didn't die hornet true ending would be void hornet which is the most hated argument in hk community the is hornet void and then she would be void and then all hell would break loose

[hybrid flare]

No, we literally dont fucking know

???????

[median fractal]

and nobody talks about how the Steel soul Masters are like seemingly implied to be as powerful or more powerful than that?

[glossy nebula]

Skong ending

All endings are cannon

[median fractal]

Steel soul jinn dialogue

[hybrid flare]

yeah that doesnt mean tk IS the shade lord and neither that tk got tped

[stable mica]

no

[stark prism]

they have a casual method of taking out pale beings and their grunts casually conjure around void

[hybrid flare]

We're yet to see what they can do

[glossy nebula]

Which means it ended with him becoming a shade in the vkud

[stable mica]

oh i thought u r saying HK

[glossy nebula]

Team cherry said that

[hybrid flare]

Tk was void given form before being in the void fym

[toxic vigil]

well the steel soul masters are above higher beings like pale king, but similar to the void heart

[edgy patio]

cus steel masters are a bunch of female cats and don't wanna show themselves they only wanna hunt sula now because sula escaped from steel seer zi and interacted with the void

[glossy nebula]

Tk is shade lord

[hybrid flare]

tk likely want back to it after murdering the radiance

[stable mica]

wait what

[glossy nebula]

He gets his power after he attains full mastery over the shades

Maybe there are other shade lords

[edgy patio]

absolutely correct.

[glossy ermine]

Update on my silksong first play though

I am now I'm far fields and have broken the door mechanism to mortar shop

[glossy nebula]

But the one in the ending is him

[violet canopy]

Wait can someone explain what exactly the shaman snail did to bring the world to its state in act 3?

[median fractal]

This It... A rare It. Has not seen many, so vulnerable, but triumphant. Makes Jinn feel a thing... surprise?
Jinn misjudged... The It is not inferior. Perhaps... different? Different to Jinn. More complete? Different... like masters?

interpret this any way you like but that's the way I read it really.
This is the dialogue for talking with em after acquiring the Void Heart

[hybrid flare]

Making up shit, shade lord is voidhearted tk with the godseeker focus

[hybrid flare]

I know, didnt mean that

[glossy nebula]

What

[stable mica]

what r we doing?

[edgy patio]

summon void

[stable mica]

thats tru

[stark prism]

its dialougue you get with zi at the end of the steel soul exclusive questline, she mentions "compression" as a punishment and something that apparently pale beings are susceptible to

[hybrid flare]

Yeah, godseeker focus, yk, that thing that empowers being seemingly

[violet canopy]

If they worship the void and the abyss doesn’t it mean the shade lord was taking over?

[glossy nebula]

Oh idk about that

[hybrid flare]

"Void given focus"

[stable mica]

r we dum

or i am

[glossy nebula]

The shade lord doesnt control the entirety of the void

[stable mica]

the bud???

[median fractal]

Also Silksong's A Vassal Lost makes the Masters sound way more scary

[glossy nebula]

No

[median fractal]

Supposedly you can't fucking escape their gaze

[stable mica]

i think the parasite is more accurate

[hybrid flare]

Can command over a large quantity of it

[violet canopy]

Are u sure?

[hybrid flare]

and thats enough for literally anything

[violet canopy]

Sounds like that’s something the shade lord is supposed to do, control the void

[glossy nebula]

Yes, he looses control when he ascends in the godseeker ending

He can control shades

[violet canopy]

Ohh I see

[glossy nebula]

Can control void

[stable mica]

there's no proof he loses control

[glossy nebula]

How

[hybrid flare]

he doesnt, tk can still rule over the void

[glossy nebula]

The void leaks in hollow nest

Tue knight knows about the void

[stable mica]

it erupts out of the godseeker

[hybrid flare]

That's TK's influence yeah

[glossy nebula]

Yeah so he looses control

[hybrid flare]

No he doesnt how

[stable mica]

there's not a single hard proof the knights decides to slain the kingdom

[stark prism]

probably an entire abyss kingdoms worth

[median fractal]

Also I think its really interesting that Hornet seems to already know about the steel Masters by the time Silksong happens

[edgy patio]

yes i'll even say it again
most powerful hollow knight universe characters:

• the shade lord (the knight)
• the knight again
• twisted child root bud
• steel masters who are female cats and haven't shown themselves in game yet
  and weaver queen hornet which is gms' vessel.

[glossy nebula]

The knight isnt that dumb to let the void into hollow nest

[stable mica]

hes escaping the godseeker

[dense heath]

Anybody here has a great groalfriend?

[hybrid flare]

female cats

[glossy nebula]

There is no explanation yet to what happened in the ending

[dense heath]

What if groalfriend breaks up🥀

[violet canopy]

So pharloom in act 3, was his doing or with him knowing about it at least?

[dense heath]

What if groalfriend pregnent

[hybrid flare]

Also the void we see flows out of the black egg temple

[stable mica]

then y r u so sure he destroyed Hallownest

[glossy nebula]

He didnt destroy hallownest

[hybrid flare]

Tk is likely needed to excert his will upon the void, like its not mentally connected to him or smt

[stable mica]

the knight controls the void

[violet canopy]

Sometimes I wonder if the hollow knight universe lore has some holes or I’m just having a hard time adding stuff up

[edgy patio]

really, the steel masters keep getting mentioned about how they are powerful and shit but they still aren't seen in game tryna act tuff in shit they are definitely a bunch of female cats

[glossy nebula]

The void leaked, which means he doesnt have full control

[hybrid flare]

It does

[stable mica]

how do u know it leaked?

it can be the knight just doing so

[glossy nebula]

It went in big amounts into hallownest

[edgy patio]

exactly

[violet canopy]

Like a lot of things don’t make sense right?

[glossy nebula]

The knight can return to normal shade form

And exit

[edgy patio]

that's correct

[stable mica]

doessnt mean he has to

[glossy nebula]

He has to

He would destroy hallow nest

[stable mica]

he broke his shell during so

[glossy nebula]

Shade form

[edgy patio]

he flashed his shade lord form to hornet in the true ending

[violet canopy]

I absolutely love the idea of void having physical form and ascending to the gods and all that but it’s flat out confusing with the info we receive

[stark prism]

or maybe the flash in sister of the void was just wyrm precognition activating for hornet

[stable mica]

yea

[glossy nebula]

So why would he leave in shade lord form

[stable mica]

idk

[glossy nebula]

If he knew he would destroy hallow nest

He looses control

Thats it.

[stable mica]

but he doesnt

[glossy nebula]

Maybe could also explain

[stable mica]

the voidheart stated it clearly

[glossy nebula]

How

[edgy patio]

AND MAYBE THAT'S WHY HE FLASHED HIMSELF FOR A MILLISECOND HIS FORM TO HORNET..?

[stable mica]

lemme find that pic

[glossy nebula]

He flashes his shade lord form

Not his normal one

[edgy patio]

yes that's what i said

[violet canopy]

The fact that the knight had so many vessels behind him in the ending cutscene got me thinking he does control the void

[edgy patio]

yup that's what i said

[glossy nebula]

He controls shades

[hybrid flare]

This literally doesnt mean jack shit this is done in sake of ambiguity

[median fractal]

I think its quite interesting that Hornet loses consciousness after it flashes on screen but she might just be weak after what has happened idk

[glossy nebula]

Oh wait

[hybrid flare]

tk doesnt lose any amount of control, tk's likely recognized as an authority figure

[stable mica]

@glossy nebula

[violet canopy]

But aren’t shades made of void?

[stable mica]

he controls the void

[glossy nebula]

Ok then idk how he looses control but that means he attacked pharloom

[stable mica]

basiaclly every void

[glossy nebula]

Why does he attack pharloom

[stable mica]

he didnt, maybe its a retcon about the range of the charm

but he clearly has control over it it hallownest

[glossy nebula]

Thats the whole discussion

[hybrid flare]

Tk isnt an explicitely belevolent being and tk likely exists in an ethereal state more-closely aligned with the void

they just let shit happen

[glossy nebula]

Why wouls he seek soul

[hybrid flare]

The void does naturally

[stable mica]

maybe it just dont give a damn about Pharloom until it realise Hornet is there?

[hybrid flare]

Tk also doesnt move all of the void in hallownest to his want so no, tk doesnt exactly control it

[glossy nebula]

Idk

[violet canopy]

Cool theory

[stable mica]

idk the void never has direct contact to Hornet canonically until that scene

[violet canopy]

We don’t know much about the knights character and his motives

[stable mica]

so he didnt sensed it

[hybrid flare]

I mean this is likely the case, the void keeps behaving as it does even after tk obtains the voidheart

[stable mica]

he maybe just like "things to protect: home, hornet" or smth like that

[violet canopy]

And btw, in the sk timeline, hallownest is completely taken over by the void?

[stable mica]

he doesnt give shit about Pharloom

[stark prism]

this would make sense as the voidheart is composed from the kingsoul which is locationally tied to hallownest so i suspect he unified that one specific abyss lake

[stable mica]

no proof

maybe

[hybrid flare]

In etv, maybe?? but not if its dnm

[stable mica]

that could explains y he has to cut the tendrills

[glossy nebula]

No

[violet canopy]

What’s that mean bro

[glossy nebula]

Hallow nest is still intact

Just a destroyed kingdom

[hybrid flare]

if the timeline is branching from embrace the void maybe it is, but if its branching from dream no more it isnt

[stable mica]

likely back to life or stayed the same after the events of hk

[hybrid flare]

This is not the case as nothing keeps attacking hornet after tk slashes the tendrils

[glossy nebula]

Hornet tells lace that she is from hallownest and thats where(i forget what she said after)

[violet canopy]

I thought it would be cool is they showed us hallownest in a cutscene

[hybrid flare]

therefore hallownest cant be destroyed?

[stark prism]

the knight wouldnt allow that because damans more sociable than hornet was back in the og game and actually likes the characters that live there

[stable mica]

bro he has the entire gang pulled up

[hybrid flare]

the fuck?

[violet canopy]

Or team cherry in general giving us more info about wtf is going on

[stable mica]

even if it tried to it cant

[stable mica]

ye they give more info bout lifeblud

not the void

[hybrid flare]

the void has a shit ton of these though

[stark prism]

why would anything attempt messing with them if that blokes around?

[glossy nebula]

Skong act 4

[stable mica]

so is the shades

[hybrid flare]

food

[glossy nebula]

I keep hearing that the weevers put grand mommy silk to sleep on youtube, but where does it mention that ingame

[hybrid flare]

i dont think its afraid of them

[glossy nebula]

I havent done the steal soul ending

[stark prism]

those tendrils clearly know better

[stable mica]

no i mean the shades just slashes the tendrills

[hybrid flare]

The voidheart is likely a sigil of authority and belonging

[stable mica]

or its just the knight doing its job

[stark prism]

apparently the citadel song keeps her dormant

[glossy nebula]

Where does it say that

[hybrid flare]

i'd imagine the void has an infinity of those

[stable mica]

the knights just says "no" ig

[hybrid flare]

and tk has the shape it has and likely exists because of the voidheart

[glossy nebula]

Lol

[stable mica]

they dont give anything bout laces

[stark prism]

might have been that one statue locked away in the vaults detailing the duty of arriving pilgrims

[hybrid flare]

tk was scared of being asset flipped and put into the game

[stable mica]

it can be a crybaby the goat doesnt care

[glossy nebula]

Cannon reason

[stable mica]

actual canon

[sly grail]

Can i just say GMS's rockfall attack is so insanely annoying

[stable mica]

guys tk is scared of skong

[sly grail]

That fight is otherwise pretty good but the rockfall attack is just super annoying

[stable mica]

its kinda ez tho

[sly grail]

Yeah its not hard its just INCREDIBLY annoying

[glossy nebula]

It is, it needs more indicators

[stark prism]

or maybe the knight only sensed hornet once she dove into the abyss and it took the mf that long to swim he way ova there

[glossy nebula]

I am sometimes blind and run at the rocks falling

[hybrid flare]

its very easy to evade lmfao

[sly grail]

No IMO thats fine

[hybrid flare]

gms needs that attack

[magic narwhal]

I think weavenest lore tablets and Needolin dialogue

[sly grail]

IMO what it needs is to be shorter in duration

[stable mica]

silk issue

[stark prism]

or maybe the knight just took all of act3 beggining to end to get to pharloom

[violet canopy]

I hope the dlc is something like that

[stable mica]

maybe, its like 5 seconds

[violet canopy]

Ima be honest I don’t want another p5

[stable mica]

of no action

[glossy nebula]

It cant be as everyone is saved

[violet canopy]

That shit took my soul with it

[glossy nebula]

Cant be a p5

[sly grail]

Yeah and like gms can just chill on the other side of it or even in the middle of it

[stable mica]

ye a p6

[glossy nebula]

Godmasters wont return to pharloom

[sly grail]

And can move freely around it

[magic narwhal]

It’s at least one new area, but making it Act 4 would piss people off

[stable mica]

maybe the steelmaster would be the key

[glossy nebula]

Yeo

[magic narwhal]

Because that implies you need to finish Act 3

[violet canopy]

Why not? Void destroyed the civilisation?

[stable mica]

make it act 3 accesible?

[magic narwhal]

She’s dead bro

[violet canopy]

If they still exists they will just look for the next god

[glossy nebula]

Godmaster went to hallownest because it was the land of gods

[sly grail]

Is there any indication that they were ever in pharloom before?

[magic narwhal]

Then it can’t be Act 4

[stable mica]

she isnt the only 1

[magic narwhal]

That’s not how an Act structure works

[violet canopy]

The shade lord is in pharloom

[glossy nebula]

No but speculations

[stable mica]

vengefly king is a "god" yeah

[glossy nebula]

It isnt, it is in the lake under the abyss

[glossy nebula]

They arrived a bit late to hallownest

[stark prism]

anything that can challenge zote the mighty is a god

[magic narwhal]

We have no proof of other survivors really, there’s evidence you don’t need a body to access Godhome

[glossy nebula]

A bit of after all the gods where dead and no one is alive

[stable mica]

what about GMS, Weavers r technically a "god" which is 3, and uh other powerful beings

[violet canopy]

Isn’t it like absrad not really being in hallownest?

Man I’m confused again

[magic narwhal]

Weavers are not higher beings

First Sinner even confirmed GMS said this as a lie

[stable mica]

child of a god is a god, they arent but with godseekers logic they dont care

[magic narwhal]

Incorrect

[violet canopy]

I saw it as if hallownest is infected, radiance caused it therefore she’s a part of it, and same for the shade lord and the void around pharloom

[glossy nebula]

Yep but they can feel it in hallownest

[magic narwhal]

Also incorrect

[violet canopy]

But u guys say shade lord doesn’t control the void?

[stable mica]

im saying the godseekers wil just make up that

[magic narwhal]

Godseekers couldn’t give two shits about the Knight being half Wyrm

[stark prism]

i say it controls the specific void it comes from

[stable mica]

maybe explained poorly

[stable mica]

make sense

[stark prism]

clearly something about the void counteracts that

[violet canopy]

As in there are several types of void?

[stable mica]

no

[stark prism]

nah but it does carry some sort of scattered will

[violet canopy]

So y’all saying void is maidenless?

No one controls it?

[magic narwhal]

The Knight is still able to evolve even if they aren’t alive anymore so debatable

[violet canopy]

The knight has some control over it since he’s a part of it but that’s it?

[magic narwhal]

I would also say if Hornet was really a HB she would not need as many resources as she does to put down GMS

[stark prism]

nah i mean as in opposes it, like the void is clearly a destroyer of higher and pale beings

[steel yacht]

What if when they add a godhome style mode, they just made a fight that’s 3 moss mothers since there’s already a fight with 2

[stable mica]

its clear shes a demigod

[violet canopy]

I think the whole weaver theme was cool tho

Getting more lore about them

They gotta give us the full picture at some point

Or maybe even team cherry didn’t think all these things through

[steel yacht]

Hornet is a higher being, GMS is a pale being, like the radiance. Theres a bit of a power scale there

[pine oasis]

when has the radiance been a pale being

[stable mica]

a demi

[violet canopy]

Btw what is lace?

Like what type of creature

I got so many questions bruh I need vaati to drop a vid

[stable mica]

a hollow shell made of silk

[violet canopy]

But doesn’t she have too much will for that?

Compared to the hollow vessels who had no will of their own

[main urchin]

She isn’t made of void though

[stable mica]

GMS designed so

and Silk is diferent

[violet canopy]

I see that makes sense

[main urchin]

We have other examples of inorganic beings possessing some sort of will. The Twelfth Architect and Second Sentinel are proof enough.

[violet canopy]

I remember pale kings whole point was for them to be a vessel to fulfil a goal

[stable mica]

who designed the 12th architect tho?

[silk monolith]

11th architect

[stable mica]

prob the 1st but then who designed the 1st

[violet canopy]

Second sentinel looked like he was developing some kind of will towards his end

[stable mica]

make sense?

[violet canopy]

Lace had a whole personality lol

[main urchin]

maybe the conductors

[stable mica]

silkflies affected

[stable mica]

:/

[silk monolith]

are we absorbing 1st chorus in the architect chapel

[main urchin]

I think so…

[stable mica]

a random 1

[main urchin]

Well…

[stable mica]

prob brought back for repair?

[main urchin]

If we go by order

[stable mica]

after get wrecked

[silk monolith]

theres a few hanging outside

[main urchin]

One of which is missing and we know what happened to him.

[silk monolith]

it

[violet canopy]

Are there any news about when the dlc drops?

[silk monolith]

July trust

[violet canopy]

We never seeing that shit huh

[silk monolith]

July trust

[orchid spruce]

Play other metroidvanias fr

[violet canopy]

In peanut butter we trust

[orchid spruce]

[silk monolith]

like ori and the blind man

[violet canopy]

I want more hk🥹

[orchid spruce]

or constance (the best metroidvania of our generation)

[silk monolith]

Constance isnt that the fat wife of mr nebercracker

[halcyon parrot]

im teknikaly in the top 5% of silksong players

[silk monolith]

same

[halcyon parrot]

how

[silk monolith]

im js built different

[main urchin]

she fell in cement

[halcyon parrot]

got proof?

[violet canopy]

I started with hollow knight, fell in love, went on to play nine sols, blasphemous 1 and 2, lost crown and shinobi art of vengeance, loved them all. But then silksong reminded me why team cherry is just different

[stable mica]

im technically in top 0% in skong players

[violet canopy]

The overall experience is just priceless

[silk monolith]

https://tenor.com/view/smiling-friends-charlie-dompler-yum-yummy-belly-gif-11548962058040758898

20 bucks

[halcyon parrot]

i give up

[orchid spruce]

some people will be mad at me for recommending MIO

[halcyon parrot]

bye

[orchid spruce]

insert my typical MIO glaze

[silk monolith]

wait is blasphemous a metroidvania?

[stable mica]

what so bad bout mio idk none

[silk monolith]

I bought it on sale yesterday twin lemme get to my laptop on friday

[orchid spruce]

there were ppl upset about #sk-discussion turning into #mio-discussion

[silk monolith]

#9sols-discussion

[stable mica]

is that april fools i wasnt active at that time

[violet canopy]

I downloaded it from my brothers account so I got the priceless experience

[orchid spruce]

sometimes we are #9sols-discussion as well

[stable mica]

i played cracked so i got the guilt experience

[silk monolith]

im literally built like that irl no joke

[orchid spruce]

other times, we are #afterimage-discussion

[violet canopy]

Try to play in the summer without ac

[violet canopy]

A fire experience

[stable mica]

i once saw roblox-discussion

[silk monolith]

life is roblox
-dj khaled

damn discord

ill play mio but first I gotta platinum 9sols

[violet canopy]

Can I still get all tools in act 3 for the 100%?

[silk monolith]

and then check out the new hades 2 patch

[orchid spruce]

I don't want to overglaze MIO because it'll backfire

[silk monolith]

yes

[silk monolith]

I bought it already i gotta play it now

[hybrid flare]

are you by any chance hunter

[orchid spruce]

But MIO, MIO MIO is the best, it's the best or second best metroidvania of all times

[hybrid flare]

No, you cant be hunter, you're hunter but poor

[hybrid flare]

Man do i miss hunter

[orchid spruce]

who's hunter

[hybrid flare]

You wouldn't know

[orchid spruce]

[silk monolith]

what the hell is constance

[violet canopy]

What’s mio

[hybrid flare]

mio is great

[stable mica]

agame

[stable mica]

mioslop guy saing goodmio

[main urchin]

mr nebercracker’s dead wife

[orchid spruce]

the best metroidvania ever (maybe losing to 9s in my heart)

[violet canopy]

Agoodgame?

[hybrid flare]

skong mogs

[silk monolith]

thats what I said

[hybrid flare]

if you think otherwise im crucifying you myself

[orchid spruce]

lmao, cope bro, silksong needs to step through hell and heaven to reach MIO

[violet canopy]

Mio is short for something?

[hybrid flare]

and it does

[odd hull]

Memories in Orbit

[main urchin]

Constance gives Housewife a whole new meaning

[orchid spruce]

hell nah

[hybrid flare]

hell yeah

[orchid spruce]

^ literal metroidvania peak

[hybrid flare]

most metroidvanias are peak arent they

Most of the known ones anyways

[orchid spruce]

constance exists

[silk monolith]

ive seen constance its like if splatoon was celeste

[hybrid flare]

idfk i havent played constance

[violet canopy]

20$

[orchid spruce]

don't give them any cents

[violet canopy]

I love MVs man

Is it really good? Some ppl recommend bloodstained

[stable mica]

maybe ima go crack mio

[hybrid flare]

[orchid spruce]

MEMORIES IN ORBIT IS THE BEST METROIDVANIA OF ALL TIME

IS IT GOOD ENOUGH GUYS

[hybrid flare]

Yeah wrinkled is hunter, hates silksong but glazes 9s

[scarlet karma]

i mean

[hybrid flare]

but hunter did play bloodborne and sekiro

hm.....

[orchid spruce]

I don't hate Silksong, it's just worse than other peaks I've played

[violet canopy]

Weinkle u are scaring me bro it sounds like troll

[orchid spruce]

It's A tier game, while the rest I've played are S tier

[stable mica]

Peak is not better than skong

[hybrid flare]

that is hating silksong

[trim estuary]

I’d argue Peak is better than Silksong

[orchid spruce]

Duh

[stable mica]

ur name says everything i need to know

[hybrid flare]

silksong shall remain my beloved

[stable mica]

duh ur duh

[trim estuary]

You’re not even the actual Tiso

[violet canopy]

Let’s be honest guys did anyone here not put sk in his top 5 after playing it?

[hybrid flare]

a lot of people

[stable mica]

ppl can have the same name

every made-ups

[orchid spruce]

[odd hull]

Naah

[orchid spruce]

Oh yeah, do you play as many as the guru guy

[odd hull]

Ender Lilies is from 2021

[surreal dragon]

Good try companion

[scarlet karma]

[hybrid flare]

Yeah undertale IS overrated

[scarlet karma]

its so peak

[orchid spruce]

I scared Zodd out of the best metroidvania

My bad, gang

[hybrid flare]

Im qualified

[odd hull]

Yeey, have fun!

[trim estuary]

Rain World haters are the same as Terraria haters

[hybrid flare]

terraria is overrated aswell, though rain world is underrated

[exotic cedar]

Yes pls more Terraria hate

[violet canopy]

My top 5 made of almost strictly team cherry and fromsoft

With expedition 33 being number 5

[stable mica]

what bout GoW 2018

[exotic cedar]

Terraria is overrated slop that gets carried by mods

[orchid spruce]

I didn't know what to do in Terraria, and in Rain World after 7 days

[violet canopy]

Hated that shit

[orchid spruce]

[stable mica]

expedition 3

[violet canopy]

Dropped it 3 times

[trim estuary]

Man I need to replay Elden Ring again

[stable mica]

looks like a silk issue

[violet canopy]

For me it was expedition 2, monoco and verso were hard carrying

[trim estuary]

how

[violet canopy]

Maybe a void issue

[stable mica]

im not talking bout that game

[violet canopy]

I got bored out of my mind exploring there

[brave geyser]

okay but y'all

Defender III for top 10?

[stable mica]

silksong low %

[trim estuary]

what

[opaque sigil]

correct?

[stable mica]

or high %

[brave geyser]

You don't know defender III?

[trim estuary]

Completely understandable but wrong

[lavish spear]

hello! im planning on getting silksong for my bday in may and was wondering if the game has been fully released (like it has endings to unlock and team cherry is just releasing dlcs)??

[orchid spruce]

yues sir

[glossy nebula]

Yes

And it is fun, but first play hollow knight

[lavish spear]

🎉🎉 yippee. is the story similar to hollow knight? like does it follow a single civilization or does it branch out a bunch ?

[lavish spear]

i am currently! its awesome

[glossy nebula]

It is about civilization of a country called pharloom

Then you wikl enjoy it

It becomes harder than hollow knight, but not that much hard

[trim estuary]

they’re adding DLCs to re-add content that didn’t make it to release atm

[lavish spear]

i have been disappointed by sequels in the past and ive heard great things about silksong but only about gameplay

[violet canopy]

Definitely play hk first if u haven’t

[cerulean sable]

i enjoyed this game outside of the caveat some of the areas and music teetered on repetitive

there was a track that i swear had a 50 second length and it kept looping, and 90% of it was piano and violins solos which was nice but at a certain point i felt like it was starting to become too samey

i still enjoyed it though

and it is very pretty still

[glossy nebula]

Its gameplay is amazing it feels not like a sequel, but like its own dependent game

[trim estuary]

no spoilers but the story sucks ass 😹

[glossy nebula]

It is so different but so similar to hollow knight

[glossy nebula]

Story is super good wdym

[opaque sigil]

I mean it’s ok for most of it then drops off a cliff

[orchid spruce]

shush, don't rain on his parade

[trim estuary]

it’s funnier to say that though

[cerulean sable]

and i really do enjoy the idea that your attacks coming from captured enemies and youre summoning them like stands

[glossy nebula]

Oh yes ragebaiter

[orchid spruce]

we liked slops when we were young too

[lavish spear]

okay thank you wo much guys!!! see you all in may when i start playing lol

[orchid spruce]

let him enjoy it

[hybrid flare]

Literally most of the falloff's in an optional section

[cerulean sable]

Skong's story wasnt the most special but i still enjoyed it even if it is simple, flaws and all

[violet canopy]

I love how they added a ton of side quests

[glossy nebula]

Yep

[cerulean sable]

i do think HK hit harder in a narrative sense but on the flipside i enjoy Hornet's interaction with the environments as a tradeoff

[glossy nebula]

I liked sherma, kept me pushing forward to see that cute little boy

[hybrid flare]

sk's story deals with more interesting characters and varied tropes

[orchid spruce]

time for imageslop

[glossy nebula]

Silksong feels more happy even with the things happening around, hollow knight gives a more ambigous dark feeling

[violet canopy]

Always thought it was a girl

[orchid spruce]

[opaque sigil]

It’ll slap in dlc when hornet gets tried for her abhorrent hate crimes

[glossy nebula]

I think it is just an age thing that makes him that cute

[orchid spruce]

i don't know if my brain is subconciously forcing myself to like it but i'm liking it

[glossy nebula]

Already in game

[hybrid flare]

Oh she does she murders the court

[cerulean sable]

shes absolved goddamn it that crow court was an illegal tribunal

if anything it wouldnt hold up on french courts

[opaque sigil]

They weren’t trying her for that there’s no double jeopardy

[violet canopy]

With every disaster that happened I just prayed sherma is fine

[cerulean sable]

(there was a case like this iirc IRL but the doctor whos the suspect is uhhhhhhhhm, yeahhh uhhhhhhhhhhhhh, bad bad bad person, ill put it simply that)

[glossy nebula]

Yep

[violet canopy]

The amount of silk I wasted to hear her sing

[hybrid flare]

Heavy racism is apparently a normal thing in this verse

[cerulean sable]

tbf there is also that fineline of consumption

between that "how sentinent it is, and how legal it is to eat" aspect in the world

[scarlet karma]

why are you blue.

[cerulean sable]

cuz im fucking badass

[scarlet karma]

fair
