[heady crater]

Well

Uhm

[thorn copper]

i'm fucked

[heady crater]

Shi idk

[still osprey]

[heady crater]

I REMEMBER

[round creek]

He was the one that made you pay 30 rosaries to enter his store

[heady crater]

Bruh I was gonna say that

[broken seal]

If you missed a tool or smth then his dead body is in the room to the left

[heady crater]

He talkin bout the rhino

[broken seal]

ah

memorium

[heady crater]

He already found it

[thorn copper]

got it

[heady crater]

And he’s prob going to far fields

[broken seal]

ah alr then yeah the voided one

[thorn copper]

i looked a video he was in another area of far fields

here if anyone eveer struggle like me

[heady crater]

Not to flex but I have every memento

[thorn copper]

i'm only missing hunter one

[still osprey]

oh boy time for my favorite part of every silksong playthrough

[thorn copper]

and i'm doing it rn

[thorn copper]

?

[still osprey]

the part where I backtrack through everywhere in Act 1 after Widow to do wishes!!!!! 🤩

[thorn copper]

why is there a 5 sec cooldown for messages that's quite annoying to prevent spam ig but maybe make it 3 secs

idk

[heady crater]

Ikr

[thorn copper]

worm ways time

i need 15 and apparently only 1 spawn + bench might be far

that's gonna be fun yaaay

the background is amazing i will never say it enough

[twilit lichen]

FUCK PUTRIFIED DUCTS

[still osprey]

I would never fail Loddie's minigames

[silver oak]

im so glad I decided to record my first silksong playthrough

I was really losing my shit for the entirety of this 3 hour recording

[thorn copper]

it's not that bad

i almost like it tbh

[rocky jolt]

mfs when area with two total dangerous rooms

[thorn copper]

lmao

[twilit lichen]

The snares,THEYRE EVERYWHERE

I CANT PASS A SINGLE SECOND WITHOUT GETTING TRAPPED BY ONE

[rocky jolt]

putrified ducts haters would shiver their timbers playing any half life game

[thorn copper]

i spent so much time in ducks (for some reason) that i actually know every single location of these

finding this mf was pure luck

soon 230 cuz i will kill zango or smth like that

i want a sk pop very badly tho

[orchid spruce]

????

Did I just get fucking softlocked?

[thorn copper]

?

[orchid spruce]

nvm

[light swan]

impossible

if it is, tell the devs

[still osprey]

Awesome

[orchid spruce]

sorry for doubting the peak of metroidvania

[coarse berry]

spitting in your face

[light swan]

anyway check out my uneducated naive water flow tactics

NINE SOLS SPOILERS

[coarse berry]

sea of sorrow is looking cool

[light swan]

i missed one talisman and one chai tea tea so im sad

[orchid spruce]

wow

[slender juniper]

Is that witch peak

[light swan]

did you like how i only parried an attack once and dodged everything else

[orchid spruce]

no

a rat in the vessel

[light swan]

i wish whirlfriend blew up faster

[opaque sigil]

there is always one

[light swan]

haha! one!

[orchid spruce]

i am a tiny nuisance

[light swan]

Xenosaga NEWS???????

[thorn copper]

witch crest yes

[light swan]

HOLY SHIT

[tacit relic]

[orchid spruce]

every metroidvania i love must have one very buns puzzle

[light swan]

TO STEAM????????????

[orchid spruce]

for nine sols, it's the ||notes puzzle||
for mio, it's the ||wheel||

xenoblades but saga?

[light swan]

||the wheel|| is peak

[opaque sigil]

dammit am i gonna have to actually play it now

[opaque sigil]

????????????????? what

[fiery burrow]

||The wheel|| was a highlight for me

[tacit relic]

I should try rainworld.

[light swan]

the only people who dislike that puzzle are people who aren’t smart enough to figure it out

[still osprey]

woo

[orchid spruce]

gasp

😠

MIO IS GARBAGE

worse than constance

[light swan]

it’s the prequel to xenosaga, called pied piper

[orchid spruce]

what an ass name

[light swan]

figuring it out myself was the most cathartic part of the game

[lavish apex]

which was like a mobile game

[graceful oyster]

I love ||wheel||

[lavish apex]

it's really funny

[light swan]

yea, ported to nintendo switch and steam now

[lavish apex]

at least it's something tho

[fiery burrow]

Walking past MIO fans with real metroidvanias like Deviator

[light swan]

that and Toumtoum > The Loop

[opaque sigil]

Gleamlight

[lavish apex]

lotus knight mogs mio tbh tbh ngl

[fiery burrow]

Was that one bellhome item an homage to gleamlight

[lavish apex]

yo actually when the fuck is crowsworn coming out

[orchid spruce]

isn't it this year

[light swan]

all this xenosaga stuff means is that MORE XENOSAGA IS COMING

[lavish apex]

that game vanished off the face of the earth

[light swan]

LETS FUCKING
GOOOOO

[fiery burrow]

Crowsworns combat looks really fun

[lavish apex]

hopefully!

[orchid spruce]

i swear i saw a crosworn announcement somewhere it'll be in 2026 or something

[lavish apex]

i'd like to try saga

[orchid spruce]

may be hallucinations

[fiery burrow]

I'm kinda apprehensive about the art direction but we'll see and tbh last I saw was like 2 years ago or something

[orchid spruce]

i am an AI afterall

[graceful oyster]

I thought crowsworn was out

Also it's like definitely a HK clone

But I also said that about 9S

[orchid spruce]

is it

[opaque sigil]

I mean no the combat and combat progression look very different

but the art style is

[fiery burrow]

Copying bloodslop lore...

[lavish apex]

how many actual slop hk clones are there

all i know are deviator and lotus knight

[odd hull]

Finally, I beat Ender Magnolia.

[rocky jolt]

''2d metroidvania with downslash'' 🤖

[lavish apex]

i assume there are more tho

[fiery burrow]

Why we slandering Deviator

The hunter boss was so peak fr fr

[orchid spruce]

every 2d metroidvania is a hk clone

[graceful oyster]

No no Deviator gets special consideration

It'a comically obvious it's a straight rip

[rocky jolt]

on GOD bro

[fiery burrow]

Deviator server has like 3 scam invites or something that haven't been removed 🥀

[graceful oyster]

Like look at this

[still osprey]

Little known fact but these broken servitors respond to the needolin

[orchid spruce]

hunter

[fiery burrow]

What did they mean by this

[orchid spruce]

[graceful oyster]

Howling wraiths

[fiery burrow]

Anyway yeah HK ripoff but the bigger crime is that it was a mediocre HK ripoff

[light swan]

seems like it deviated from hk to me

[rocky jolt]

why does this area have platforms on the background

[orchid spruce]

immersion

[fiery burrow]

canonizing floating platforms with magnetite ❤️‍🩹

[rocky jolt]

the bugs in the background need it for traversing

[orchid spruce]

bro, ori 2 is on sale too

i want to buy too many things, help me

[onyx python]

platform maxxing

[thorn copper]

if the everbloom push away the void then why do void ennemies still do 2x more damage than normal ennemies ?

[graceful oyster]

I'll help: Don't buy Ori 2

[fiery burrow]

truth nuke

Nah its an alright game

[orchid spruce]

I'm refunding RW to buy Ori 2

[graceful oyster]

https://tenor.com/view/rowley-don't-call-me-dont-come-by-my-house-we’re-done-gif-13830806584161282948

[orchid spruce]

sorry grynne

[fiery burrow]

I actually have more hours than I'd have thought

[orchid spruce]

rw didn't vibe with me

and i've been wanting ori 2 for a while

[graceful oyster]

Did you
Hit the 4 hour mark?

[thorn copper]

temps de jeu = playtime in french

[graceful oyster]

Because I did already mention this

[orchid spruce]

no otherwise i can't refund

[neat python]

Ugh.... another silksong clone

[graceful oyster]

It's an unfortunate side effect

[fiery burrow]

Don't click Towel ||I kinda wish Ori 2 had more mounted gameplay with the bird||

[neat python]

Like I know its popular but god damn these clones are crazy

[orchid spruce]

i'll just it later and buy it again if I love it

[sharp slate]

Maybe could argue thats void enemies are more concentrated while liquid is less dense. Hard to find a lore reason

[graceful oyster]

RW doesn't usually jive with people until you hit the magic point and then everyone who gets past that part loves it

So

[thorn copper]

js trying to find an excuse bc void ennemies are kinda annoying sometime

[fiery burrow]

wtf did I jump over the magic point

[graceful oyster]

It's not guaranteed, just a generalization

[old island]

putting karmelita right after trobbio on the playlist was NOT a mistake 🗣️

the two bleed together like a supreme angel from ultrakill

[graceful oyster]

But it's like (RW spoilers) ||once you hit Moon or Memory Crypts or an Echo|| things get pretty interesting

[still osprey]

so true

[thorn copper]

lmao

[odd hull]

What did they mean by this

[still osprey]

Hit both Blasted Skips am I goated or what

[lavish apex]

i wonder

[light swan]

weaving around speeper is too fun

[graceful oyster]

F&N's theme is a banger

[odd hull]

Nintendo copying HK smh

[still osprey]

I FORGOT THE GREYMOOR BELLSHRINE I'M FUCKING STUPID!!!!!!

[light swan]

no youre goated

[orchid spruce]

Saaaaa ah ahhhh

[light swan]

Ah Ah Ah Ah AH AH AH AH ah ah ah ah a a a a

[still osprey]

I could do craw skip, but I already have Crawbug Clearing accepted, so I might as well do the craw arena anyway

[graceful oyster]

I need to fight these guys again

[light swan]

vacation is making me miss out on peak

[graceful oyster]

Maybe that's my next jadeless hitless

[light swan]

has ilemni finished the boss mod

[graceful oyster]

Idk

I think efforts are on randomizer rn

[light swan]

:(

[graceful oyster]

Not ":("

Randomizer is peaksauce

[light swan]

maybe i should replay the game for the 7th time and skip rocintante and libby period cramp

[light swan]

it is i agree

probably the only randomizer i’ll play

cuz of how versatile and nonlinear mio is

[light swan]

that’ll boost his hp by at least 700

[lavish apex]

i think they changed barbed bracelet not doubling void damage

[light swan]

how does burger king have nearly double pearltraps hp

[thorn copper]

not bad anyways it's 2am now imma go sleep gn or good morning whatever everyone cya

[hallow pike]

Hi.

[graceful oyster]

Much easier for a new player to hit also pearltrap has a much longer runback

[light swan]

im kinda surprised the difference is that much tho lol

feels like itd be 1000 less not 2000

[orchid spruce]

fuck is pearltrap

[light swan]

the one that’s sentient

[orchid spruce]

[light swan]

Cute Fuckass Flower

[orchid spruce]

ooooo

[supple thistle]

getting to act 3 is like an n64 video game Easter egg, how did anyone ever figure ts out

[light swan]

i also wanna replay silksong

to get footage for cursed ending

[still osprey]

by playing the game

you literally just unlock it by playing the game it's not that hard

just do wishes

[fiery burrow]

I remember right after release trying to figure it out

People were saying it was tied to percentage or something

So I was like buying out shops n stuff 😭

[supple thistle]

no shit, but its the needlin on grandmother silk that throws me off

[still osprey]

it literally tells you to use the needolin 💔

[fiery burrow]

control prompt yeah

[supple thistle]

well I wouldn't know, I haven't gotten there yet

im still in act 2

[still osprey]

Oh boy! Time for Silver Bells!

[supple thistle]

Mr. (Ant) Tenna's TV Time!

[odd hull]

? wha

It's not that complicated

[fiery burrow]

Its not complicated but it is kinda obtuse

[supple thistle]

it's just a lot

[light swan]

bruh why you complaining about that when you haven’t even passed that point

[opaque sigil]

it's a lot of random completely unrelated nonsense and side quests that there's no real reason to expect are essential to complete it's lame but whatever it was really mostly an issue near release where you couldn't look it up

[odd hull]

"The hero needs to help people".

[fiery burrow]

Yeah I wasn't told to do that

[lavish apex]

my biggest problem with it isn't really the obscurity

[fiery burrow]

Also tf does the bellhome key gotta do with that

[lavish apex]

although i think that exists
it's just a slog

[fiery burrow]

Big slog on repeat playthroughs yeah

[lavish apex]

it's not fun on replays
i would rather ignore like 70% of the wishes

[opaque sigil]

sure hope you didn't want to do a needle 0 playthrough

[fiery burrow]

Go buy every map and accept the shakra quest and watch a cutscene then dump all your rosaries on donation quests then go grind some random enemies and grab fleas for a while

[still osprey]

I'm a completionist so I really don't mind the wishes

[odd hull]

Neither was I, yet I figured it out. I think it's the only logical conclusion in a game with wishes, or a good aligned protagonist

[still osprey]

I do them all in all my playthroughs except for the deliveries

[fiery burrow]

They're sidequests

[opaque sigil]

'good aligned protagonist'
lol
lmao even

[fiery burrow]

They aren't framed as mandatory loads of games have sidequests which you can ignore that's why they're on the side

[odd hull]

Yeah

[still osprey]

Last Judge time

incredible

[lavish apex]

everything i dislike about this game except shell shards is for themes and such

so like on some level i gotta respect most of it

well not necessarily the gameplay rewards part either usually but

other than those

[still osprey]

this bg is lowkey so beautiful I never really realized

[lavish apex]

i wish the blur was a bit less extreme

for most of them

[slender juniper]

There's a setting for that

In the video

Settings

[lavish apex]

there is?

[slender juniper]

Yes

[lavish apex]

for backgrounds?

[slender juniper]

Mhm

I play with it because my laptop is older

So it inreases performance slightly

[lavish apex]

switch 2 doesn't have that

[graceful oyster]

I think that's mod specific

Can't remove the blur on basegame

[still osprey]

you mean this?

[graceful oyster]

Oh I think that's the thing that changes the quality of the assets behind the blur

[odd hull]

Hmmm what should I play next

[graceful oyster]

But tbh I don't really know how it works

I just know that you can't remove the blur w/o a mod

[still osprey]

Lowkey I think I might do something new

Screw Cogwork Dancers I'm going to Whiteward 🔥

[lavish apex]

nvm this isn't true it's just act 3 reqs

[knotty osprey]

shards havent really held back my experience that much but i do acknowledge that its a flawed system, but i find this to be my only gripe with the game alongside communication of how the player is supposed to get to act 3

[lavish apex]

i mean they didn't hurt mine either but that's only because i just basically didn't use red tools on my first playthrough

because of them
which i guess kinda did

because it led to me getting really frustrated with the normal enemies when that's what red tools work best for design wise

every other one since i got good enough that it didn't matter

[knotty osprey]

ive watched a few of my friends play and yeah i totally get how it can be annoying to get shards again after a certain amount of attempts at a boss

i still think that if magnetite brooch reeled in shards then it would make restocking much easier

that way you can kill an enemy and move onto the next instead of picking up every little shard that fell off a platform

thankfully thunderstore has a mod for that that i use in my 2nd playthrough

[orchid spruce]

nuke shards, nuke act 3, nuke slop quests, game becomes masterpiece

[lavish apex]

don't nuke act 3

[median fractal]

Anything sorrounding act 3 is a masterpiece

[lavish apex]

i like some of it as it is

[orchid spruce]

nuke act 3

[lavish apex]

it just needs more actual content

[median fractal]

Act 3 has some of the most jawdropping moments in the entire game

[orchid spruce]

move karmelita to act 2, now nuke what remains

[median fractal]

dlc... godmaster ish dlc definitely

[knotty osprey]

i love act 3 but it could use more exploration tbh

[lavish apex]

red memory and abyss climb and all the story bosses save for maybe nyleth are peak

the rest of it

[median fractal]

Sea of Sorrow wont be act 3 but may havr Act 3 exclusive content with the spread of Lifeblood

[knotty osprey]

its one thing i hope sea of sorrow gives us even if a smaller scale

[lavish apex]

is
not
sadly

[silver oak]

act 3 is essentially a bunch of cool scripted moments that use the map that was previously developed in the previous two acts

[knotty osprey]

pretty much yeah

[silver oak]

the game basically stops being a metroidvania

[graceful oyster]

Necromancer not a mod anymore

[median fractal]

I dont think it needs to be that late into the game?

[silver oak]

why pensive

[graceful oyster]

Anyway yeah whatever Act 3 sucks

[silver oak]

this is good

[heady iron]

You were the best mod

[still osprey]

I think this is the first time I get clawline before Dancers

[silver oak]

don't lie

[graceful oyster]

It's pensive because you were one of the good ones

[heady iron]

Now all we've got are uh

[knotty osprey]

i think this is certainly a good opportunity to add more exploration to act 3

[lavish apex]

"act 3 sucks" is a fair take but i like enough of it that i wouldn't wanna see it cut

just tweaked

and expanded

[median fractal]

I think Act 3 will slowly become better as we get more shit

[silver oak]

being a mod is only fun when ur active enough to know what's going on

[graceful oyster]

But also it is cause for rejoicing because freedom from Hollowcord is golden

[opaque sigil]

using an act structure means they kinda need a 3 it should just be better

[lavish apex]

give us coral gorge as a memory instead of just tower

[silver oak]

to be clear I don't necessarily think this is a bad thing

[lavish apex]

center most of the dlc stuff in it

do some better quests

[graceful oyster]

Every time I think about becoming a mod in a major server I always shut it down with "do you really want to spend that much time here, seeing the worst of it?"

[silver oak]

they built up a lot of goodwill in those first two acts they can get away with some linear plot stuff

[lavish apex]

less just running around to fulfill dumb conditions before you can start chasing the main quest

[silver oak]

and the stuff they go with is very good

the abyss climb is peak as hell

[lavish apex]

it is

[silver oak]

red memory? idk im not sold

[median fractal]

That genuinely made me lose it the first timr and I was screaming to my friends and they didnt know what I was screaming about cuz they didnt fucking get there yet

[orchid spruce]

here's 10 collection quests, one of which is rng and another is you needing to use some tools that you likely need to google to know what they are and farm enemies

[lavish apex]

i think red memory is really cool

[orchid spruce]

peak quests

[lavish apex]

i mean partially because it got me soyjaking at the deepnest elevator

[orchid spruce]

herrah line is cool

[knotty osprey]

i think the act structure of the game does set up interesting potential for the dlcs because they could make it so some parts of a dlc are act 2 only whilst others are act 3, now how they would execute that? no idea

[orchid spruce]

others are so lame

[lavish apex]

but the music is also peak

[silver oak]

I have a recording of my reaction somewhere but I literally recorded 50 hours of footage so idk if I could find it lol

[median fractal]

Also idk I think Red Memory was really really cool. I yhink it couldve had something more though maybe.

[orchid spruce]

especially vespa

[lavish apex]

i think it's a cool way to wrap up hornet's character

[orchid spruce]

it looks cool, that's it

[silver oak]

I did do this as well tbf

[orchid spruce]

i wouldn't attribute it much substance, aside from herrah

herrah's good

[strong pebble]

does someone have the OPEN THE DOOR last judge thingy

[median fractal]

Everyone went crazy at that elevator

[steel trout]

this game was running on the laptop before the house got burn is really tuff

[prime vale]

Cardinius is silksongs zote

[silver oak]

cardinius is sick tho

we need more silksong emotes we're really short

[knotty osprey]

i love whispering vaults in general

it just has a vibe to it

[graceful oyster]

More 9S emojis pls

hehe

[heady iron]

I'd make more stickers but my back hurts from carrying this server's sticker economy

[strong pebble]

bronana split

[knotty osprey]

i remember team cherry saying in that one interview before release that they eventually had to stop adding stuff for the sake of releasing the game, if you pair that statement with their other interview of how stuff in act 3 came last before release then i think its somewhat implied that a lot of dlc stuff will be made with act 3 in mind

[fringe jungle]

even without that interview it would just make sense for them to do that with their dlc anyway given how much stuff act 3 changes

[light swan]

soyjaking? is this meant to be joyshaking or smth

[lavish apex]

are you familiar with soyjaks

[still osprey]

wooo

[light swan]

nope

there’s no way soyjaking is actually a term 😭 i was so sure that was jus some typo

[lavish apex]

have you seen these guys before

that's pretty much what they are

crudely traced drawings of shit like this

or sometimes not traced

but like reminiscent

[still osprey]

That's so cool

[graceful oyster]

Valheim soyjak on my fridge

[steep jolt]

nah bruh why am i 27 minutes still in moss grotto

[lavish apex]

what kind of silkpost is this

[steep jolt]

??

ts not a silkpost yo

[lucid trellis]

lace is hornets aunt

[broken seal]

gang? 😭

[broken seal]

She is not

[lucid trellis]

hornet -> herrah -> GMS
GMS -> Lace

[broken seal]

The weavers are not truly related to GMS and they all abandoned her anyway

[steep jolt]

what gng

its more like gms forcefully adopted the weavers

[still osprey]

getting Wings before Dancers feels so cursed

[broken seal]

She wasn't their true mother and they definitely refuse to see her that way now

[broken seal]

Go get volt bolas and then absolutely shred the phase transitions in like 2 seconds

[steep jolt]

did yall not do ts wings is the first thing i got even before doing trobbio

[broken seal]

I usually do Cogwork Dancers before even getting Clawline

[undone gate]

I got wings after beating GMS

[still osprey]

ok!

[lavish apex]

coggies is like the first thing i do in act 2 usually

[steep jolt]

my first time playing routing was so goofy i went cogwork dancers to songclave to slab to first sinner to sprintmaster swift 💔

then i backtracked for clawline

[still osprey]

yea me too but I wanted to be different this playthrough

[undone gate]

I just finish all the citidal stuff and get wings after beating GMS

[lavish apex]

i've been getting the replay silksong itch a bit but i also like don't wanna do it before we know sos release date

or before it just gets shadowdropped

[broken seal]

Do challenge runs

[orchid spruce]

As much as I slander Silksong, I probably played it more than the average enjoyer

[undone gate]

You have beaten Lost Lace and only like 25% of the people have beaten her

[orchid spruce]

I hitless her

[lavish apex]

silksong is a game i love deeply that i wish i could love so much more than i do

[undone gate]

I haven't even done her hitless I think when I tried to beat her hitless I got like 2 one hit runs something like that

[orchid spruce]

She's a bit bad to hitless

Because fundamentally, she's kinda a slop boss near the end

[lavish apex]

i think she's a fun hitless

[orchid spruce]

But she's pretty fun

[delicate temple]

Need a build for coral tower

[undone gate]

What bosses have you beaten Hitless

[fiery burrow]

they were hyping up a great emoji purge smh

[fiery burrow]

Breathtaking theme

[orchid spruce]

for silksong, ugh karm, ll, nyleth, seth

[undone gate]

How hard was Karm Hitless

[orchid spruce]

horrendous runback

also stupid gauntlet

[lavish apex]

i've done ll gms and second sentinel

[undone gate]

You haven't tried Tormented Trobbio hitless yet

[orchid spruce]

oh yeah gms i hitless as well

[tawdry socket]

None 😕

[orchid spruce]

trobbio is a mildly trash boss that gets racked up to 11 and become total slop (tormented trobbio)

[lavish apex]

and also like
moorwing sister splinter and fourth chorus
just completely incidentally between my steel soul attempts and the speedrun achievement playthrough

maybe lace 1 as well? i'm not sure

[delicate temple]

Shaman crest is ass for gauntlets

Like wtf is this

[undone gate]

Tormented Trobbio hitless would have been really hard that's why I asked that also Seth Hitless sounds pretty easy I should try it

[undone gate]

Other than the heal it's good for Guantlets

[still osprey]

Moorwing vs Circlet is so funny

[orchid spruce]

Seth hitless was annoying

[delicate temple]

Shit for coral tower because longclaw doesn’t affect it

[orchid spruce]

His shield throw's telegraph was too short, I had to keep him on-screen at all time

Sometimes, I had to predict his throw

Honestly, I should remove Seth from my list, I now remember how annoyed I was

[undone gate]

It already has an insane range why is Long Claw needed also doesn't Long Claw affect Shaman Crest

[red depot]

!! SEA OF SORROW NEWS !!
TC quoted in an interview: "Yeah we've been having so much fun with developing Sea of Sorrow that we might make it into its own game... we've always wanted to give Zote his time to shine and in 'Hollow Knight: ZoatboaT' we'll do exactly that."

[twin summit]

Damn 😔

@teamcherry is this true

[undone gate]

That makes sence in normal runs I usually forget about his shield throw since it deals 1 mask of damage making it mostly not a threat

[orchid spruce]

And its range is completely absurd

He can snipe you off-screen

[tawdry socket]

This is false, there actually making hungry knight: silksong

[red depot]

proof btw

[undone gate]

This is why you stay at the air not the ground

[orchid spruce]

Sounds unpleasant

[still osprey]

Greatest Cogwork Dancers fight ever

[rotund gate]

Mf got damaged before they even moved 😭

[lavish apex]

yeah to skip the roar freeze

[steep jolt]

holy shit

[still osprey]

I just died to the fucking vaults arena 😭

[heady crater]

Man when is season of sorrow gonna drop

[still osprey]

circlet got me playing too carelessly

[steep jolt]

its a strat so you can attack then during the scream its actually used a lot in steed runs

[heady crater]

Bad tie are you like a speed runner

[rotund gate]

wait so when you get damaged you dont stagger when they scream so you can actually get some

ohhhh ok

[steep jolt]

if you get hit during the scream when you normally are forced to stay still you can move and hit them

[rotund gate]

this will be very useful the next time i replay silksong

[still osprey]

not really, I wouldn't call myself a speedrunner, I just like implementing strats into my playthroughs

my goal isn't really to go fast even if I play "fast"

[steep jolt]

ill start a new silksong save probably when sea of sorrow comes out

i mean like a 100% one

ill probably do steedruns

[heavy arch]

guys how to deal w savage beastflies summons

[magic narwhal]

Nice

[heady crater]

Use magma bell

Steal soul??

[magic narwhal]

Yup

[heady crater]

Damn

[magic narwhal]

Doing a true 100% file

I just need 3 bosses and Hunter's Journal completed

[lavish apex]

thread storm if you have it

[magic narwhal]

Basically this

Volt Filament too if you have that

[heavy arch]

i mean like the one u fight over lava

[magic narwhal]

Thread Storm

[lavish apex]

yeah still thread storm

[magic narwhal]

You can use it in the air

[lavish apex]

magma bell will make them hurt less tho

[magic narwhal]

There is a stall strat to make the fight easier

[still osprey]

Awesome

[slender juniper]

Czech Translation map

[magic narwhal]

It doesn't despawn adds anymore but there's silk reserves nearby to heal off of

[twin summit]

Red is cleared tho? They did scan 😔✌️

[slender juniper]

We're trying to translate the game

[magic narwhal]

Btw tip for people trying to beat Seth scores

Reaper is really good for juggle, just do horizontal slashes on any wave that has more than one flea and don't jump

[rocky jolt]

skarr's trail

[magic narwhal]

For dodge, the platform that spawns will never be the first to dissapear if there's 2 so always make sure you're on the newest one

[heavy arch]

NO FUCKING WAY

[rocky jolt]

what are the french on

[magic narwhal]

You will need to pogo big flea if he runs above the platforms first, they have a set timer and do not respawn immediately after he goes away

Also try not to clawline unless you are right next to a platform, they can animation cancel you pretty easy otherwise

[rocky jolt]

im gonna start calling bilewater bilesac

[magic narwhal]

Bounce is by far the easiest game, just pogo and use Clawline + float if you need to regain height

[delicate temple]

Crust King is easy (I spammed red tools with architect crest)

[analog mist]

silksong is goofy

[rocky jolt]

greenward

[heavy arch]

guys help w savage beastfly (encounter 2) summons

[delicate temple]

Wdym?

Where to find it or how to beat it

Since I think the fight is easy

[heavy arch]

its summons

[light swan]

we already helped you

[delicate temple]

Oh the creatures he spawns

[heavy arch]

YA

[delicate temple]

Do you have sharpdart?

I mostly abuse that it works like a charm

I’m going to cheat my way to beating karmelita

By using Architect crest and spamming tools

[heavy arch]

OMFG FINALLY

[magic narwhal]

Architect's is overkill, just shard and fly with Pollip on any crest and you're good

Bonus points if you do a hybrid Spell/Tool build with Nails/Storm and Filament

[still osprey]

replace pollip with quick sling and then you're correct

[delicate temple]

Did sharpdart do its thing?

[heavy arch]

no

i didnt even use it cuz i was too locked in and i didnt see ur reply since u didnt ping me

[magic narwhal]

Meh, Shell Satchel + Pollip

The perks of playing Steel Soul lol

[undone gate]

That's 2 tools compared to just Quick Sling

[lucid trellis]

Do yall thinj you could guess a boss based on its eyes

[delicate temple]

Quick sling isn’t all that if you use cogfly

[still osprey]

pollip pouch is ass

[magic narwhal]

This is still not worth

[still osprey]

worst blue tool in the game

[magic narwhal]

Flies have a max spawn of 4

[still osprey]

as if pollip pouch is? 😭

[lucid trellis]

hehe curvesycle go brerrrr

[magic narwhal]

Bro really out here believeing Pollip tick damage is bad lmao

[rocky jolt]

disgraced chef ji

[lucid trellis]

if it stacked it clukd be

[magic narwhal]

It does lol

[undone gate]

It doesn't

[still osprey]

it literally is? 😭

pollip damage doesn't stack

[rocky jolt]

6 damage over 2 seconds is pretty bad methinks

[magic narwhal]

It's def not, any additional damage on an enemy you're already ranging is great

[still osprey]

your base unupgraded needle deals 5 damage

[magic narwhal]

Yeah but does 0 if you can't hit an enemy

[still osprey]

only 1 less compared to pollip's max potential

[undone gate]

That's like 1.5 damage per second even if you use it for a whole minute thats just 90 damage

[lucid trellis]

if you cant hit an enemy, thats a silk issue

[magic narwhal]

This game has a lot of dudes that just like to be out of reach

[rocky jolt]

3 dps actually because its 6 damage not 3

[lucid trellis]

https://hollowknight.wiki/w/Clawline

[magic narwhal]

You try hitting those dang flies in Ducts and not getting hit lmao

[undone gate]

Yea it's still 180 damage which you can just get by hitting the boss 10 times with your nail

[magic narwhal]

Clawline is dependant on Silk, do not over rely on this

[still osprey]

there is no defense here it's just bad

[lucid trellis]

https://hollowknight.wiki/w/Silk_Heart

[still osprey]

it does nothing

[rocky jolt]

clawline spends silk but it does give you silk back so

[still osprey]

Cogflies alone do basically the same than with pollip pouch

[magic narwhal]

Heart doesn't regen that fast unless you have Lanturn and even then if you're spamming it it's not reliable

[undone gate]

While Quick Sling just doubles tool dps

[magic narwhal]

Only if you get a direct hit

[lucid trellis]

then don't spam it moron

[still osprey]

you do know hitting an enemy with clawline gives the silk back right? 😭

[magic narwhal]

That's assuming it connects

[rocky jolt]

whenever i see the word moron i only thinjk of wheatley

[still osprey]

??????

[lucid trellis]

[still osprey]

tf does "assuming it connects" means 😭

[magic narwhal]

If it's a flying enemy these dudes love backing tf up

[undone gate]

Using Clawline on a enemy is really easy

[magic narwhal]

or going diagonally up

[still osprey]

we really have people believing pollip pouch is better than clawline I'm crying

[delicate temple]

Why is karmelita hard for no reason

Makes 0 sense

[still osprey]

it's true

[magic narwhal]

Not saying I don't use Clawline just that it's not 100% reliable so having backup ways to have damage tick isn't bad

[undone gate]

I don't use Clawline or Pollip Pouch that much but I know Clawline is way better than Pollip Pouch

[lucid trellis]

shes an act 3 old heart, the fuck did you expect

[rocky jolt]

karmelita is a strong independent woman

[still osprey]

why do we play as hornet for no reason it makes 0 sense

[delicate temple]

Everything in act 3 has been piss fucking easy except her

[undone gate]

There is no way Coral Tower is easy

[magic narwhal]

Also people saying Get Gud when I'm in endgame Act 3 on Steel Soul lmfao

[delicate temple]

Once I used architect it was

[graceful oyster]

Did you savequit?

[delicate temple]

I beat crust king first try

[magic narwhal]

Actually yes lol

[graceful oyster]

[still osprey]

and you don't know how to use clawline? 😭

yea I'd say you need to "git gud" too

[magic narwhal]

Beat 3 waves, get shortcut, save quit, voila

[undone gate]

Architect also makes Karmalita easy

[lucid trellis]

and yet they still can't fucking clawline, where my ass, whos ass at this game, can

[rocky jolt]

[undone gate]

Beating the first 3 guantlets isin't easy

[magic narwhal]

Never said this lol, also clearly I do as seen in my Flea game vids

[graceful oyster]

Erhm, I cheat in Steel Soul to get in endgame I'm so tuff

I don't need to "git gud"

[heavy arch]

yo guys i got the horn from savage beastfly how am i gonna claim my mask shard

[magic narwhal]

Thread Storm + Filament, Cogflies, Shard too if you want extra stuff in the arena

[still osprey]

just go to bellhart and interact with the wishwall

[orchid spruce]

I am softlocked, I think lmao

[magic narwhal]

Just TS the flying guys, other guys aren't too bad

[lavish apex]

i understand savequit cheaters in this game

[graceful oyster]

Where how?

[lavish apex]

skong steel soul is bad

[graceful oyster]

I think it's fine

[undone gate]

Both HK and Silksong Steel Soul are super boring

[magic narwhal]

Nice straw man dude

[heavy arch]

fuck the restoration of bellhart

[orchid spruce]

I can't enter ||Vault|| anymore (MIO)

[heavy arch]

im only doing this for my act 3

[still osprey]

I don't like steel soul in general but I'm not gonna cheat it just to get the achievements

[lavish apex]

hk steel soul is fine because that game doesn't kill you in 5 seconds

[still osprey]

I'll just give myself the achievements if I beat the game deathless cuz there is no difference

[graceful oyster]

#sk-discussion message
It's not a straw man, it's disproving your "I'm good" evidence

[lucid trellis]

you mean father of the flame?

[magic narwhal]

It's really not but sure lol

[twin summit]

Git great

[graceful oyster]

[still osprey]

oh like groal I get that reference

[orchid spruce]

help

[magic narwhal]

Also this goes against the dev's thoughts

[graceful oyster]

By what means? You should always be able to

[magic narwhal]

So suck it up I guess, it's intended

[orchid spruce]

All doors are locked

[graceful oyster]

Oh baby, not just another savequit cheater, but someone who says it's intended

Yikes on a stick

[undone gate]

I just don't play Steel Soul because Achievements don't matter to me

[magic narwhal]

Well, it is they literally said so lmao

[lucid trellis]

same, i like enjoying the games I play

[magic narwhal]

You can argue that point all you want, don't really care lol

[graceful oyster]

Have you talked to Rad?

[orchid spruce]

MIO spoilers

I went this route and can't turn back

[magic narwhal]

Ye fair

[still osprey]

yea I just play on normal mode and if I end up beating the game then I'll give myself the achievement because there is literally no difference between that and playing steel soul

[lavish apex]

they've commented on this before?

[magic narwhal]

People also acting like they don't save/quit for speedrun fr fr

[orchid spruce]

[magic narwhal]

Yes

[lavish apex]

where

[lucid trellis]

Those are speedrunners, they are a different breed of human

[graceful oyster]

Should be able to go left into the pipes back down to the checkpoint

[magic narwhal]

I believe AMA, forget which one

[still osprey]

save and quitting to get back to a bench faster is different from save and quitting on 1 HP when you're in danger what are we saying

[orchid spruce]

💡 !!!!

[graceful oyster]

Real

[rocky jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/speed-ishowspeed-try-not-to-laugh-dont-laugh-laugh-gif-15896873064336345588

[orchid spruce]

thanks 🥹

[still osprey]

yea apparently if you save and quit in speedruns you are a cheater but save and quitting in steel soul is intended 😭 give me a break

[fiery burrow]

we yes WE are all savequitting at the start of Act 3

[magic narwhal]

I mean I'll say the same thing I said previously about this, you still have to pay attention a lot more than HK for this to work

[graceful oyster]

I did not

The start of Act 3 just takes a bit of conscious strategy but it's pretty evil

[lucid trellis]

Im being serious, speedrunners on are something

[magic narwhal]

Never said either was cheating lmfao

[graceful oyster]

No, I am

We are saying it's cheating

[orchid spruce]

real ones don't engage with slops and are satisfied with Weaver Queen

wdym act 3, that doesn't exist

[glacial kelp]

real ones beat the entire game in one sitting

[magic narwhal]

Hell nah I'm too employed for that shit lol

[lavish apex]

this is another part of skong steel soul that sucks

[lucid trellis]

what the fuck

[lavish apex]

the sequence that arbitrarily steals your build and limits you to 2 hits before death in a gauntlet

[graceful oyster]

Yeah

[magic narwhal]

That part is very annoying agreed

[still osprey]

I think putting you on an empty hunter crest with only silk spear is complete bullshit and I'm a hunter main

[graceful oyster]

It's a good thing it's 100% consistent if you just rush them

[magic narwhal]

Not to mention it's a tiny arena with the biggest Underworks voided spawn

[lavish apex]

it is but it sucks

[still osprey]

like it can't have been that hard to just, carry over the same build you used for GMS

[magic narwhal]

And the dudes that like ranging

[still osprey]

why did they do this seriously

[lavish apex]

i will admit i did savequit that part to get the health back
but i also didn't get hit at all

[magic narwhal]

It's mostly for a narrative parallel but I think it hurts the gameplay a lot

I also got fucked up for a sec because they removed my Ascendants and I forgot lol

[lavish apex]

i think that makes it ok but also i don't care

[orchid spruce]

omg witch, burn him

[lavish apex]

because it sucks

[orchid spruce]

https://tenor.com/view/montypython-witch-burnthewitch-gif-5477103

[graceful oyster]

When I was doing my sq-less steel heart I ended for the day after entering A3 and then when I realized it healed me I hit myself back down to 4 life before entering the arena

[still osprey]

why did you enter the save file if you just planned on stopping there anyway

[magic narwhal]

True actually lol

[graceful oyster]

I decided to quit after entering

Wasn't in it

[still osprey]

yea valid I suppose

[graceful oyster]

Probably saved my life tbh

Didn't have my head in the game and definitely would have died to the gauntlet

[magic narwhal]

I genuinely curious if there will be more SS exclusive content with DLC

[lavish apex]

i fucking hope not i never wanna touch that mode again

[undone gate]

Void Guantlets in small arenas are super easy to mess up

[lavish apex]

worst time i've had with the game

[magic narwhal]

Yup, especially if multiple voided launch projectiles at you

[gray grotto]

do i keep my extra silk if i die before getting my cocoon?

[still osprey]

if they make sharpe steel soul exclusive I am killing team cherry

[magic narwhal]

That would be so mean lol

[still osprey]

At least the 1 major piece of steel soul exclusive content is mid at best

[magic narwhal]

"Here's the Backer boss you were teased and promised, now get to the end of Act 3 on Steel Soul to fight him"

[graceful oyster]

In Act 3 Steel Soul you will be able to Silk Soar up into the city of steel, where you are met with a daring gauntlet of new challenging enemies and an exciting miniboss before gaining access to the beautiful region!!!

[lavish apex]

seems quite bad to me

ok if they do that savequitting is valid

[still osprey]

thank god we have mods tbh

[magic narwhal]

I was expecting more because everyone kept saying they almost died or died to it

[lavish apex]

for that content

[magic narwhal]

It barely hit me lol

[lavish apex]

i don't think they would but who knows

[undone gate]

You mean the Summoned Saviour

[plush plover]

egg

[magic narwhal]

Ye

[still osprey]

I wonder how they'll handle Summoned Saviour in ss godhome

[magic narwhal]

I dunno if they'll do SS Godhome ngl

[still osprey]

they've said they know the community wants it

[undone gate]

Maybe just not add it to SS Godhome

[magic narwhal]

I can see refights via Melody but I think the bosses are too tied to their arenas

[graceful oyster]

Wait peak wth

[plush plover]

it would be funny if that happened

[still osprey]

it's probably just going to be available in godhome only in steel soul and maybe godseeker mode

[undone gate]

I doubt anyone will be sad because they cannot replay Summoned Saviour

[orchid spruce]

they're gonna welcome everything except godborn child of pales and void, aren't they

[plush plover]

my friend got to egg p3 today and it immediately became in their top 3 bosses of all vidya games

the pipeline imo

I might go back to PoH one day to try bindings

[undone gate]

PoH is just not fun

[magic narwhal]

Not for a while though, I'm mostly just trying to get true 100% in Steel Soul before DLC

[magic narwhal]

It's alright, it's just long

[still osprey]

P5 is ass

[magic narwhal]

Lifeblood makes it tolerable

[undone gate]

I have done PoH with charms binding it sucks

[still osprey]

it's not hard it's just boring as shit

[orchid spruce]

[plush plover]

music to my ears...,

[magic narwhal]

True

The first half is mostly just watching vids waiting for hard bosses to show up lol

[orchid spruce]

||Slow Starter, Triple Pokes, Triple Pokes|| (NINE SOLS SPOILERS)

[undone gate]

Yea the first half is so easy compared to the second half it just is a time waste

[still osprey]

Pantheon of Pharloom is much more enjoyable imo

and also much easier, I did it first try 🔥

[magic narwhal]

The big annoyance there would be are bosses that spawn other enemies

[main urchin]

Except SOB

[undone gate]

They haven't added DLC Bosses yet

[main urchin]

(And oblobbes I guess)

[magic narwhal]

Nah actually I love Mantis (all variants)

But they are easy to learn

[still osprey]

honestly idk if I expect any super difficult fights in silksong like nkg until godhome

[main urchin]

Yeah, I mean SOB is the main highlight of the first half of the pantheon

[magic narwhal]

Ah yeah true

Well Oro and Mato is fun but slow

[still osprey]

honestly am I the only one that thinks nkg is kind of out of place in the overworld

[magic narwhal]

I mean that's kinda the point, he's not from this Kingdom

[still osprey]

like he was the hardest boss in the game since he was added until godhome and he's just some guy in a tent that gives a shitty reward

[undone gate]

They probably would add NKG level difficult bosses maybe even in Sea Of Sorrow

[magic narwhal]

Would assume with DLC yeah

[still osprey]

I'm definitely not expecting it in Sea of Sorrow

[delicate temple]

Fuck me playing correctly I’ll just spam architect

And it worked Karmelita is dead

[magic narwhal]

It's easier to gauge what will legitimately challenge players now that the main game is out

[undone gate]

Maybe in the next DLC after Sea Of Sorrow

Both Karmalita and Lost Lace come close to the difficulty of NKG

[magic narwhal]

I'm predicting some bosses to have Tool Res or something to deflect maybe

Because rn they hit through shields

[undone gate]

Architect is just too OP

[still osprey]

silksong dlc so far feels to me like they're just adding in the things they didn't get to finish in time and idk if they'd have any really hard bosses cut

I can maybe see Sharpe considering he was a backer reward actually

[magic narwhal]

I can never get on board with Arch, if I'mma spam I'mma do it at a cost lol

[delicate temple]

I only died a few times because I got cocky and thought I didn’t need to dodge

[still osprey]

just like Khann and Karmelita

[delicate temple]

My hubris was my downfall

[fiery burrow]

Sharpe better be THE endgame fight

He has too much aura

Being cut just added to the mystery

He's legendary fr

[graceful oyster]

Sharpe has negative aura

[magic narwhal]

It's possible they only do this DLC as well

[graceful oyster]

Stupid ass character

[undone gate]

Maybe they will add a super hard boss for the cut area we can't know for sure

[magic narwhal]

I know it's been stated they want to move on to other projects after SS is done

[undone gate]

I do think most of the DLC Bosses they add will be Act 3 Bosses level difficult

[fiery burrow]

The proboscis whip is kinda peak don't lie

He also has his buddies

[magic narwhal]

Depends if they add any to Act 2 or not

[fiery burrow]

Steel lore is cool

[still osprey]

idk, the majority of hk dlc bosses aren't that hard

[magic narwhal]

This is gonna be the big thing, if content is Act 2 accessible they have to scale them back due to limited nail damage and masks

[still osprey]

White Defender, GPZ, TMG, and Hive Knight all fit in very well difficulty-wise

[undone gate]

Act 3 level Bosses in HK is like Soul Tyrant, Failed Champion, Traiter Lord, Radience and Lost Kin level difficult bosses

[orchid spruce]

none of those are all that difficult, nah?

[magic narwhal]

Am I the only one that doesn't think Lost Kin is that bad?

[still osprey]

I would not consider those act 3 difficulty bosses but maybe I am overestimating act 3 boss difficulty

[undone gate]

I mean in HK Act 3 level because those are the bosses needed for True Ending but not the 1st ending

[still osprey]

like I'd say Nyleth is harder than all of those lowkey

[magic narwhal]

Your cieling for Act 3 bosses rn is like Karm and Lace, both of which I would compare to like PV

[undone gate]

Silksong Act 3 level Bosses are harder than HK Act 3 level Bosses

[delicate temple]

The bosses were rather easy except karmelita but I had skill issue for that

[graceful oyster]

I hate it

[magic narwhal]

Big attacks that leave trails, double damage on most if not all

Seth funnily enough I would rank above Nyleth

You can just cheese Nyleth by pogoing her face and Clawlining back and forth

[undone gate]

I find Nyleth harder than Seth but most people think Nyleth is easier

[still osprey]

Nyleth isn't that hard but she's pretty fun

[magic narwhal]

Seth phase 2 is the main reason I'd say he's harder, his patterns get inconsistent depending on distance

[still osprey]

there is no better feeling than having a good Nyleth fight

[undone gate]

Nyleth is like slightly hard I just find Seth really easy

[magic narwhal]

Yeah it's just a nice aerial fight

[still osprey]

like this is awesome https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/586931790208434203/1491886175164694619/2026-04-09_22-41-49.mp4?ex=69e28d46&is=69e13bc6&hm=782cf525d501c6d83be333389f4c01f82164ddf01019fbcb7efcde15dfaf7666&

[undone gate]

Yet all his attacks can be dodged by walking and jumping

[magic narwhal]

Can I rank Pinstress high for Act 3....

[still osprey]

Pinstress isn't hard she's just bullshit

[magic narwhal]

She's not hard she's just very annoying with pins

[rocky jolt]

honestly groal the great

[twin summit]

Hi

[delicate temple]

Wait Pinstress is meant to be annoying?

[magic narwhal]

Groal sure yeah, that's an Act 3 boss in disguise

[rocky jolt]

honestly bilewater

[delicate temple]

I had fun with that fight she kept throwing her pins into the ground

So I barely got hit

[undone gate]

Probably the reason I struggled with Nyleth is me just not wanting to use Clawline

[magic narwhal]

I keep resorting to cheese with Groal, he's too annoying to fight normally

[delicate temple]

We all love spamming the tools against Groal

[magic narwhal]

Just camp the water and wait lol

[undone gate]

I see Bilewater along with Groul as the final test to see if your ready for Act 3

[magic narwhal]

No I just go swimming in maggots for a bit lol

[light swan]

i beat groal hitless on accident

on my 2nd playthrough

[magic narwhal]

I am glad they nerfed the OG best Groal strat

[undone gate]

Groul is pretty easy if you just pogo the boss

[magic narwhal]

Was not aware drill was that OP at launch

[still osprey]

Groal is easy in general he has no threatening attacks at all

biggest threat against groal is his fatass body

[magic narwhal]

It's mostly just that he's big and the arena's small

[undone gate]

His only threatening attack is contact damage

[magic narwhal]

Yeah

Or his big soul projectile which is almost as big

[rocky jolt]

six seven!

[still osprey]

I am not proud of my Radiant Groal I think I played like shit tbh 🔥

[mystic tulip]

23h pra zerar o game? osso

mas ta valendo

[magic narwhal]

Clover Dancers is fun but honestly it's just slightly harder Cogwork

[rocky jolt]

isso foi ato 3

[still osprey]

like I do not think this is a good groal fight

[undone gate]

Clover Dancers is the most disappointing boss in the game

[mystic tulip]

msm assim, da pra fazer em um tempo menor, isso q eu to falando

[twin summit]

Groal is a good boss tho

[still osprey]

Clover Dancers are the boss most in need of a buff imo
