no you mean nine sols
But honestly this boss feels a tad disappointing for a Boss this late
reaper good wandere bad sawtooth niche
Woah game I started the other day
sawtooth circlet players when they think its pro to spam jump and clawline on gms instead of playing the game
Nine slops, coal in orbit
wait until he finds out about the secret 10th sol
Have fun
I literally don't know lmao
8 sols
6 or 7 sols😂
@ Mods
now THAT'S a reason
acting as if it ISN'T playing the game to do this
Feng brothers lmao im crine
I mean
Can you use sawtooth effectively against GMS?
so like
Wait then how are you not supportive of the gender neutral community
I thought only english speaking people were
yes very much so
Yes she's a floating giant hitbox without contact dmg
have you reached the final boss yet grumpy orange
yes and then im not fighting the boss anymore because it dies in 10 seconds
That isn't really valid for sisters/brothers/siblings
That's pretty basic
dw most native english speakers suck at english too
I was asking if this person specifically could, not everyone
I was asking if this person specifically could, not everyone
spoilers
IM BACK AFTER 5000000 YEARS
i think grynne was asking that person specifically, not everyone
I missed you
So, if you're good at the game, the boss dies fast
Where's the issue
Did you die
hello welcome back
Glad to hear it
Just uhh busy
its pretty lame, but as a niche tool its fine, I just dont ever use it because its bad when you play normaly and overpowered when you play like a facetanking spammer
Feelspkmaning that and moving on
but its a truth nuke
Ok
what do you guys think the state of Hallownest might be in if we were able to go back as Hornet in the future?
Fr just be like frito and don't use tools or ever touch the ground
True reacting your own message
But use beast crest instead

imagine shruing your own message
Imagine 😂
wtf
Who would ever do that
that’s true
not me
Ok uh...I think the last pollip heart is behind a wall or smth..
it might be in shellwood
just ban yourself already crimson
Wake me up when September ends
....Well yea, I just need to know WHERE in Shellwood
I asked 2 mods to mute me and they both refused
over there
I am unbannable
.
i had a dream sea of sorrow was releasing in the next 60 days
closing discord is the most effective mute
Im leaving
Oh ok
You said you would like 10m ago
where I’m pointing
it is and I am certain
ok jkjk but idk what ones you’ve gotten
there’s one in a tall room with flower pogos
I had a dream someone walked up to me and gave me a million dollars cash!
I had dreamed I was taking an ap test last night
And was running out of time
So when does this happen
i think there might be one near Greyroot’s house
what should we do instead?
🤔
Install ad blockers on ap test platforms
i think it turns red tools into something idk I lwk forgot
It turns them into purple and do poison damage
Trust, SOS tomorrow
Hmm...
There is no saving you
It's always tomorrow
My next training for witch is making an empty save and editing in Witch Crest and Clawline at the start
and uh
it's managing to be as difficult as the first time I played
the months of rust definitely doesn't help but i'm genuinely stuck on widow
i can't wait for the steel city dlc to be steel soul exclusive 
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 with a whole new wishwall!!!
whens the dlc coming
?sspsa
Reminder: The latest news for both Hollow Knight and Silksong can be found in #hk-announcements.
Check the pinned messages for more information, including a FAQ. 
The Flea Brew is one of Silk Songs few drinks but one of the most aesthetic and fun to use in the game. In this video I recreate the Flea Brew in reality in three different ways. At the end of the video we do a speed and attack speed test just for fun, hope you enjoy!

What's this
steel ball run....
I wonder why these balls are running
The balls are also made of steel
🤔
Is it like choosing one of the marbles, then seeing which one wins
Like there's a huge group of marbles at the top with a partition, when you remove the partition, the marbles start go down to reach the goal
Guys I got my sister Silksong for her bday a few weeks ago and she's already screaming swear words every time she dies
Did I make a mistake 
its a steel ball reference lol
Which area is she in
Jojo
She's still trying to beat the Last Judge
She grew up
🥹
Already experiencing peak
The only crest she has is reaper and she for some reason doesn't know how to get new tools
She's kind of an idiot /j
then what is Nine Sols
What red tools work with Pollip Pouch?
uhhh Sonic
you will be in much more peace knowing it will show up probably after TGA
Only cool people play Nine Sols
isn't TGA like november?
All of them
Some have special synergies
I mean like a good combo
None of them
Cogflys and Tacks synergy are pretty decent
you can try equipping not pouch
the actual discussion bout skong
but back then there r still content
"Discussion"
ppl alr finished the game
Just beat father of the flame, very unique compared to all the other bosses
We used to be beautiful.....
lmao
because it wants to
cuz its not evil
Let it in
You can trust me
I'm Graig Leth Gibson

my mom would be pleased hearing that
She doesn't undertand it!!
hello silksong are we still stilksong
lmao, first time starting a noita game and it throws me a bug screen
😀
i am being forced to watch a boring cutscene of moving sparkles
and it takes 10 centuries
Hey! Have fun
Please ask if you need help but part of the fun is stumbling around
i hope so
I quit Noita the first time I played it and then came back a couple years later and dumped 200 hours in it
i read it's like yomi in the sense that there's zero guide but it's an offline singleplayer game so it's different
It is different
But yes, no guide
Click to shoot
Wands have spells that care about the order they're in
i can fart to fly
You can fart to fly
use your pc equipment to interact with the game
you know ball
i dont 
One of the coolest things in act 3 is binding to grandmother silks arm (change my mind)
has sea of sorrow released?
No
abyss climb & lost lace phase 2 music transition
🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
I said one of the coolest not coolest
Alr leeme spit sum shit
Lets gooo got 2 mementos at once 6 outta 8 I killed krustkingkhan and got every entry in the journal at the same time
Final entry was krust king khan
Act 1 should begin when u collapse infront of chapel maiden,Act 2 should begin when the elevator to underwork fails,For the phantom route it should begin where it did,And act 3 should begin when u collapse in Choral chambers grand reed hallway near songclave
What y'all say?
Act four begins on kingdoms edge, which is so sandy because it's actually a beach. There should be no air mechanic, as the moment spiders are submerged they begin suffocating, your "air meter" will be your masks (don't worry, you don't get knockback like this). There will be an upgrade you can get that isn't weaverborn that lets you turn the soul in your silk into air, letting you breath off your silk meter before you begin losing masks, and every underwater area past that will include copious amounts of enemies
How do I beat Widow?
learn to watch the bells and widow at the same time for the second phase and take it slow
why mentioning him lmao
Its always these freaking bells that bounce way to much
Fr
they are quite easy to dodge
Punch them
for vertical just stand far away, diagonals? just stand next to their first landing point
Nah bro
do i almost feel fear
tiny bug it sucks
Ngl bilewater is overhated
sandborne….?
I now have every relic and psalm cylinder
Now ima get the last memory lockets
Than the last 2 mementos and I will have true 100% on silksong
I need to do physically everything to set up for the dlc
Im stocking up on roaseries
Ive been at max shell shards
Im ready
I need to get the save to the point were I physically cant collect or progress on anything
What no hollow knight dlc does to a person
Ima be ready for that dlc
I bet theyre only gonna add 2%
Like the grimm dlc
Hey if they do ill gladly get 102% and do physically everything in the dlc
I wont say your unemployed cuz this is silksong and everyone who playes it will do ts including me
Just get 102% right now
@ripe yacht can you release a beta for sea of sorrow here
Please ari i need this my hornet is kinda bored
ari gibson MUST have these channels muted
we might die
or even worse
sea of sorrow gets cancelled
Oh shit
peepee
someone's getting banned
I would rather get banned than sea of sorrow getting canceled
well too bad you pissed him off so now SOS is getting cancelled
ESHOP PAGE SPOTTED
is it even still possible to do the chorus skip healless now
I hope they delay sea of sorrow
Ive collected every memory locket
every time someone asks
I only need 2 more mementos and I have achieved true 100%
This Giantess Dating Sim can't be that good
first thing i see when i enter
It's my favorite game ever made and I'm not exaggerating
That being said, never play this game it will ruin your life

it can't be that bad
It might just be particularly traumatizing to me because of the way I'm wired and other people will get out unscathed
I am unusually empathetic
very humble
Yi

wait i thought umineko was #1, am i misremembering or did it move up
It moved up
fire
I had to be honest with myself, Umineko didn't move me to start writing fanfiction for the first time in my life
Unparalleled movement
Anyway what the FUCK do you mean rated T for Teen
@vivid belfry you still playing look outside?
yeah its rough, been playing it again, theres so much more content now
Guys i beat the crawlake gauntlet
you're right, it will ruin my life
Hello!
Not what I meant
That part only happens to me
Know how I know?
NOBODY ELSE HAS DONE IT
NOT ONE
my advice is you can obliterate 90% of hard fights by learning their vulnerabilities, some bosses take near double damage from certain damage types. Also clearing out early game encounters for xp to level your party really helps
Yellow
I haven't gotten far enough to get a party
is the saeko community hostile towards
s?
best way to get a party in look outside is to just play video games in your apartment, i reccomend super jumplad, it gives you a really strong earlygame ability
What fucking community lmao
lmao
Why do fucking has a community?
Nah nevermind
I've played 2 games to completion and gotten shopkeepers I couldn't buy from because I hadn't explored
Might just start over with more of a strategy
I can't find a
version of it because no one plays it

i'll just wishlist it and wait for a sale
I'm insane so I pre-ordered the physical collector's edition
The Japanese version had a real version of her hairpin...
But the English version has wonderful little standees
So I can't be mad
what's next? life-sized body pillow? 

It's an act to keep sane appearances
should i refund noita to buy giantess dating sim
I haven't gotten very far in noita so I can't say
That might help, also some third floor areas are better off avoided early game until you have a party, i reccomend heading down to second floor early
Noita peak
i only got 1 hour in noita and got to level 3
Oh that's really good
but it was pretty boring 
i just jump and shoot enemies
and find the path to purple portal
Silksong is spoiling me, holy shit this game is good
There is an extremely rich pool of things to uncover
You will have to look around each level rather than just beeline
i don't know, grover is really selling the giantess dating sim
But beelining is good for knowing what's ahead
Do what most people do and put one or the other on a play later list
Have you
Discovered that you can edit wands
yues
Okie
There is a treasure trove of fun to be found with wand tinkering
i thought it'd just damage me, it killed me 
Yes yes we'll add that to a list of crucial Noita rules
Entry 1: Do not play around with electricity and water. You will die.
It stuns you
Then zaps you again
what game are we talking about now
I also made good use of the water bucket
whats the talk of the town these days
Noita
God i have so many games i need to do second playthroughs of
Dunno if it's placebo but the water bucket cures poison or something
never heard of it
Crucial Noita rule 2: Water is OP
It does in fact cure poison
I need to replay resident evil 2 remake, dark souls 3, look outside, darkest dungeon, and i need to play resident evil 1 remake
lmao 
It converts toxic sludge to water
Preparedness
You will not be able to survive if you don't extract a fair amount of resources and spells from each level
Money to buy from the shops, new free wands, max health ups, chests with random goodies
Man i really want to play bloodborne on pc but setting up the emulator is a little too daunting lmao
risk of rain ass question
Some other... more secret stuff
Spelunky was kinda fire
what probably made it boring for me was the monotonic attack
was spelunky 2 any good
i remember playing it at a convention but never buying it
i know it's different effects but i still just hold the button to spam projectiles
i don't know, spelunky 2 art didn't vibe with me
and it seems ... overcomplicated
Hellllllllo
yoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
dead lounge
silksong is PEAK
it’s more peak than peak
peakest peak peaken peaker game is silksong
Looey
why does silksong barely have any backtracking until act 2
You can do back tracking in act 1 to do phantom
yeah but theres none in the reg path iirc other than like lace
Well technically you can do act 2 with barely any back tracking
@destiny @ blebbles ground combos are now pretty consistent and predictable with variations
Wow
Looks very cool
it always follows the pattern of windblade > dashstab > swirl
theres variations in how many slashes there are, and to start the combo it can either be backdash or dashstab into windblade
teleports are still completely random and break up the combo, which i can change soon
Did you give it more hp
nope
well, not since last time
this modded fight has always had 1300 hp
Oh k
but i did give it more hp than previous sentinel
alright you might be cooking
im not done with my consistency-ifier
rn air combos and teleports and combo enders are fully random
looks clean so far
ngl the midair parry into clawline at the beginning was aura
the dash dance under the charge slash before it was insane
i do that often with witch crest
but so far the falling X slash is super inconsistent
wth is that ping 
for example, its easy for them to just fall into me like at 0:18 and theresn oway for me to know beforehand
also, half the time they land too low and i get hit by contact damage
both of which i will TRY to fix but ihave no current plans on how to fix the contact damage
does it look better
i think so
alr
it looks like it's slightly worse than Lace 1
????
????
why isnt it air sentinel now
wdym
Idk it looked like it was more aerial before
ground combos have a much more consistent lenght now, so its impossible for it to be really short and go back into the air immediately
Alright thats neat ig
but i have my plans
have you played grime
i wish bell eater was a good boss
no
Im planning on playing outer wilds and then dark souls 3
Any tips for moorwing
has peak boss
Yeah every other game i've played has a peak boss too

Nine solsss
honestly bell eater is pretty cool, take off cross stitch/sharp dart and you get some... unique dodges you need to do
yeah many bosses are better than goatterno
and karmelita
Witch nuke both ends 🤤
Idk if thats true but yeah karm isnt in my top 10
1 witch bind shouldnt kill them
Nope but its still satisfying
wait wut, your list got updated?
No she never was in my top 10 i think, or she was like, at the very bottom
I made that top 10 up in not much time

Ive beaten a fuckton of bosses making up a top 10 would be hard asf
rich
Like i have my top 5 but idk what to put after
🏴☠️
$5000 pc tho
It was gifted by a friend of my father and we repaired it for cheap
And yk, its not even a high end pc
🙁 if it's not high, what is mine
i'm stuck playing indieslops, missing out on AAAslops
bagged any top bosses lately
is that a question?
ye
Uh, i've not really been playing smt new lately i was grinding out bloodborne 
But ill play ds3 soon enough
You can run ds1 i think
but ds1 is slop
It has 2 great bosses doe
such as bed of chaos
we dont talk about the fact that most basegame bosses are mid to bad
But the dlc has good bosses
oh and also i've been exploring sasuke as a character and i think she's pretty good
damn you read mio lore
Ye i love lore
why didn't you read midsols lore
I did
Nine sols just does a good job at explaining it to you so i didnt need to invest 500 hours into the search of lore pieces
nine sols is a predominantly story game
There's a book on bloodborne lore if you'd want to give it a read
Well... document, its supposed to be free to read as it is community made
mio is a metroidvania where lore isnt fed to you like story games
but you said ||eigong is a lame villian|| (9S)
when
🙁
Eggnog is a good personal obstacle for yi
she's not supposed to be black-and-white
He's kinda driven by her
but you seemed to interpret her that way
When
🙁 some time ago
Js making shit up 💔
Her motives are certainly interesting but her main goal seems to stem out of desperation
can you elaborate (in spoiler tags)?
if anything you said the oppsite
nno no no
Yeah, i was comparing her to isshin and i was saying that she's good
and isshin isn't that good
No, no, no!
im planning of getting and playing sekiro soon
from what ive heard it is very good
Which sekiro
wdym which sekiro
Wasn't there a sequel
||She was so set on finding the cure, she already promised immortality to the higher ups and now she's messed up, every solarian is essentially doomed to die, she tried many methods like removing the gene, which removes the sapience of the solarians, or crafted a serum, that essentially mutates the virus and transforms it into a big sentient blob, she doesn't have any other option and eventually thinks that is best for their race||
there's not even a dlc 💔
Super lobotomy
there was a update that added boss rushs though right
🙁
yeah that was tuff, but no dlc
But i thought like
Shadows die twice or some shit
thats my interpretation
so, what's theme of nine sols?
there's the goty edition
Chasing revenge and conflicting ideals
that's not how theme works 
Maybe thats what im thinking of
well those are themes
these are topics
Sekiro is open world slop anyways (im larpinig in it of itself I actually dont know how sekiro plays)
as far as i know this is just sekiro with the update i mentioned previouisly
sekiro open world 💔
?
Soulslike?
it's made by from software
Revenge is detrimental to growth and uhhh everyone fights for their ideals
also play ac6 it is good
🙁 0️⃣ but the egg was gud, 90%
0% on the theme though
fym 0 the game is mostly about ideals

Something related to them 100%
every sol has a set mindset of how their world works and how it should work for everyone elseand the lore of the game is also literally disagreementmaxxing
Except maybe jeep
What's the theme of nine sols
nine sols major spoilers
||ends don't justify means, you need to know when to let go||
Eeeeeh

We get it you play slop
The main antagonist didn't really do anything ultra bad when doing the experiments
||she deliberately lied about guardians and instead used them to experiment the test samples on|| nine sols major spoilers
tbf you're right i forgot they existed
they have like 0 appereances throughout the game
they are everywhere in two/three areas
Hold on which guardians are we talking about
||Arent the pink goops just the roided tianhuo eggnog made the serum for||
that's like 99% of metroidvanias
hell even 99% of games
||they're solarians, infected with the serum|| (9S)
Fucksee was given the serum and started showing sympthoms
yeah that's what i meant
except for ninesols
Wait... They sped up Hornet's walk speed when she's all weak and slow.
That's amazing
||only fuxi got the sample, "voluntarily". the rest were forced.|| (9S)
||In district they're regular solarians still in the soulsscape but infected iirc||
you cant dash or jump and you take breather breaks
I'm just saying it's cool that they sped it up
oh ok
It was really tedious after the 3rd Steel Soul run
good boy, i've finished my teaching job
that's not a theme 
conflicting ideas is an inherent part of good theme writing
The entire lore and story of the game is built upon them idk
anyways, sorry to drag you with me through this thinly-veiled 9S lore discussion
Nah its fine i've acquired some insight from this
you can go enjoy your 3Aslops now
you nine sols maniac
when?
why are from software games slop in your opinion
They are slop
why
slop
give me a actual reason
slop
what is slop now
other then slop which tells me nothing
Hell if I know
No im js baiting my fav game is a fromsoftware one
games in general are slop
slop is just another word for mid at this point tbh 
obviously
ew, 4chan...I think
ultrakill is doomslop
aren't all those games just gameplayslop though?
Bois, I deadass hallucinated that I had 571 Rosaries instead of 360
Wtf am I doing man
you what
hallucinating oddly specific numbers
I mean it IS 1:20 AM so hallucinations are very slightly possible
Anyways day 459095 of trying to P-rank P-2
You should've fuckin seen the dreams I had back in Senior year
College Algebra Honors was torturing my dreams with numbers (no joke)
I will use your timezone to eventually find out where you live

Good luck narrowing it down
anyways why are you up
is this you
The buttons are starting to get weaker responses
Dunno who that is Imma be fr
well for context he's the protaginist of the game called "I wanna be the guy" so-
Anyway I'm gonna go to sleep now
I'm in that flow state of "my life fucking sucks and I hate it here" so goodnight y'all, gonna sleep off that nighttime dopamine deficiency
i blew up lugoli
CoD is better tho
better than ur soulslop
that does not answer my question
because they're boring
okay???????????
why are they boring to you
because it's soulslop duh
give me a actual answer
this is an actual answer u just don't wanna understand it
do you hate that they based around dying to the same boss over and over?
do you hate the runbacks to bosses?
what do you dislike about them
fromsoft game made an entire genre of video games that no one understands the direct definition of and that's enough to call it slop ngl
the mechanics are boring it's just dodge and slash

........................
🤣
seems a bit reductive
no because that's what you do in soulslop
espically when dodging has 3 states each with varying iframes
it's dodging in the end
dodge and slash that's what you do
so true
no CoD is better i'm serious
cod is great they're just hating
CoD is shooter slop
they can't take a beautiful game
I think
cod uses ai in their art in the most recent game no?
that's why i support them
that already makes me hate it
ai art is literally better than human artists
ah you are a ragebaiter this is a waste of time

that doesn't makes me a moron
yeah in hindsight wrong word to use
you changed pfp and name but I recognize you simply by this emoji- 
i won't see your messages so don't expect a reponse
ai art is literally better and this is a fact you guys have to take

Idk if i'm good or bad at the game, sometimes i see some people play through that make me thing i'm good, then some God like play through that make me think we're playing different games
that is getting good at the game
i didn't
I'm bored can we argue about crests again
bloodborne mogs
hunter is the best crest cause i like it more
I somehow agree with that so I guess we're not arguin-
😭
I wish there was a crest that made Hornet lunge through enemies much like sharpdart
ari is online lmao
bro what did i just see

how does that work
is it like, the pogo
i imagine hes lurking in chat and seeing how amazing my takes are and telling me dude youre so cool im gonna give you 10kusd dollars so you can buy your dream pc and i;ll be like ohmygod ari thank you i love your games so much
The sprint attack
you want sharp shadow
basically
Yes

wrinkled's dream
abyss crest when?
especially because he's such a large silksong fan
LMAO
Sharp shadow so good, I added it to my own game
🔥
hell yeah whats your game
bloodborne
we dont need a bb2
Won't really talk about it here since it probably counts as advertising
bloodborne is perfect as it is 🗣️
so when is it gonna come to pc
shadps4 emulator
if it's not on pc I don't want it
i mean i have a ps2
PC is goated
it still works
you can emulate it
why would you buy PS, it's a scam
i bought a ps2 when ps3 came out
I always seem to have input delay on consoles, which made HK much harder
ok I'll do it in 3 years
Pc mogs
it's because hk doesn't have input buffer 
i'll emulate bloodborne if ari gifts me a pc (he wont)
which is astrocious
Towel's potato mogs

hop on that 22 frame bus
you only notice when it's gone
silksong, nine sols, grime, blasphemous 2, mio (aka mvs i played) all have input buffers
Say: you hate blasphemous, however
buffer i hardly know her
blasphemous 1 doesn't have input buffer?
wait wtf so many people want bloodborne pc there's an entire subreddit dedicated to it
why am i confusing blasphemous with kingdome come deliverance
wow i knew it's ass, but not THIS ass
Completely unrelated to the convo, i think it does
Im js showing the peakest shot ever
nope
is that you with a sword

why are you arching your back
same
individually? i though it was just a rush
Well you can refight bosses cant you?
god i fucking love this shot so much
b1 mogs b2
in every way except gameplay
truth nuke
how can this be
are b1 bosses good
like 5
the dlc ones generally yeah
how would you rate ns bosses, to compare
the rest aren't
really
gameplaywise
10 in my heart

i would say mio's are probably better
mio's a 6 to you?
Mio's like a 7 in boss avg
tbf the same as nine sols to me
i'll just wishlist it, i'll give it another shot when it's 90% off
but nine sols has a 11/10 boss

eggnog is 9.676456454345
my backlog is killing me
the only true 10/10 boss is orphan
i now have ender lilies, grime secret boss and ori 2 and noita
Eggnog would be so much higher for me if NS had actual difficulty scaling
Eggnog if she didnt have the dumbass fire
and i want to finish my hk replay
and blasphemous 2 ng+
and grime ng+ some time later
ew ng+
grime ng+ is very good
one new secret boss (peak), new enemies, reworked bosses to fit your new moveset
oooo thats sweet
i only fought a handful of ng+ bosses but they're so so much better
the stupid ass early game boss is legitimately elevated to such a good duo bossfight
but i'm impatient so i rushed to the secret boss
hl2 ost is so good doe
hkgen is the best
just realized that i might have a gaming release conflict coming up
subnautica 2 releases on the 14th, which may put it very close to when sea of sorrow might release
Hl3 ost is better
truth nuke
didn't know highlands got so many sequels already
it sucks that sea of sorrow is like comfortably in the any day now phase
or at least feels that way
maybe that they haven't said a release date means it isn't but also the full game got dropped on a 2 week notice so like
what’s wrong with act 3?
silksong's exploration is second to none
they got kidnapped
You make a valid point, but your hatred stems from your inability to beat silksong I guess and you mask it with some drivel. So, git gud, you can beat hk/silksong. Its not the game its you.
Yup that's my 5 cents on why HK and Skong are the best metroidvanias of all time
Can we just ban these posts I'm so tired of these unproductive Edge Lords who can't even handle difficulty in a video game

Why you talking to yourself
i'm talking to the silksong haters
Only real issue i have with act 3 is actually entering it, locking it behind a bunch of fetch quests is an odd choice
why would they be in a server about silksong
idk, they got banned thankfully
the actual gameplay structure of act 3 also leaves some things to be desired
hey
you aren't supposed to say that
you are forced to glaze ns not sk!
Oh yeah guess there's that
And the story maybe
act 3 as a whole feels like a stilted checklist instead of having interesting progression
Getting 100% is way more annoying if you dont do absolutely everything before act 3 besides the few things that are locked behind
some guys join servers for that sole purpose ngl
i still enjoy it for the main bosses and some of the really cool moments but i wish there was some revision
mainly the void popping outta nowhere
act 3 made me crash out trying to find Nyleth heart
and retcons
which retcons?
I feel like 99% of the discourse about silksong here is just act 3 complaining
I can see that
Shamans knowing abt void, lifeblood infection, white lady and pk having the flowers and the flowers being their only source of protection against the void
I mean
there was never really anything explicitly against that being true
can you explain the last one
i don't think any of those are contradictory with what we see in hk1
i don't understand why this is a retcon
Tools and quests are frequent topics too
what says they can't
Because it's not true
Retcon can also be defined as added info
why not
Good morning y'all
yeah but that doesn't contradict
but tc expects you know that despite not being shown in hk
isn't that literally them knowing about the void???
Wl has an alien-ish reaction to when you bring her a delicate flower and we don't see them anywhere in the palace
she didn't say they had the flowers in the palace
The retcon is the fact that they know about the void yes, in hk they dont
I mean not really
They don't expect you to know that it's just new information and expanding on old concepts
Nor in pk's workshop
nor anywhere related to them
where in hollow knight is it stated they don't know about void?
No like the entire shaman twist relies on this knowledge
so what's the contradiction
They didn't have the flowers nor it was the only way to repell the void
also weren't two of the void spell upgrades obtained from shamans?
The shaman you can talk to is surprised when you warp the spells with void
zemer:
doesn't grey mourner have flowers? she worked for the king
I mean its a possibility but also not directly stated
Also why would ze'mer just keep all of the flowers
we see it
If they're that important
we don't know that
pk was a super genius though
he controlled it to an extent by putting it in little suits
Yeah but regular light sufficed
i think the only way to repell the void part refers to the present, it's the only way hornet has to repell the void in pharloom's abyss
i personally think he stole the ancient civilisation's homework
Likely
i think a pure higher being can handle void better than hornet
also there's a difference between stopping the spread of void and plunging headfirst into the deepest part of the void
by being
a super genius
It could be referring to physically repelling the void but yk
The flower is also kinda random there wasn't much connection with the flower and the pale family in the first game
Tbf that isn't ever elaborated upon
wdym?
It was always assumed if you get caught by the void you're pretty much dead
The flowers would be of ample usage
yeah and that happened to pk after he gave up
unknown
void is regret and pale king was filled with regret
i wouldnt be surprised if he let rhe void get him or something so he could go fly away in his little ghost form
the ghost form is a joke but it's a funny thought
how were the vessels born
Its also really weird
shamans themselves kinda already gave us 2 void upgrades, they always had connection to the void. The vengeful spirit guy is kinda deceptive to us already so we can kinda interpret that he's being dishonest
like the void seems to be segmented
IIrc the void you use for the upgrades is your void
Where did you get that from?
You absorb a higher level soul technique
Also etv exists
idk which lore tablet said that man
etv is ass
godseeker wonders if the flower is a splinter of something greater
Shamans don't know about the void, the shaman is obv surprised by that fact
how come
he could be lying vro, he tricked us into killing a pest in his basement
Because shamans aren't void
Yeah but like, that's straying a bit far
but they can use void
but they can't
the person on the right of dirtmouth can use void
fym where
and she isn't void
jiji
steel city game tomorrow
She can conjure it not rlly use it but wtv
my goat
also shamans are never shown to use the void
but they're shown to be linked to it
"your essence has melded into the spell"
Not in hk
their spells can become void
Can you read
and sometimes shamans are visited to make spells void
no???
Tk absorbed a shaman's skill and power to be able to imbue tk's own essence into their spells
is the powerful source a shaman
yeah they actively commune with the void they arent comprised of it or anything
so even if they couldn't use void they tried to
yhe void in the spells is all tk
The shamans dont even know about the void ffs
all they got from absorbing those shamans was like knowledge or whstever
Yeah
how come
You should well know our family's fixations.
And literally every other piece of evidence ever
yeah this is a retcon
You should well know our family's fixations.
major spoilers for: Nine Sols, MIO: Memories In Orbit, GRIME, Blasphemous 2
Then it's a retcon
do you even know what a retcon is
what was retconned is NOT canon
what it was replaced with IS canon
welcome to S tier, ||dreamborn terror|| (GRIME) 
karmePEAK glaze
so they were experimenting with void but they didn't go to the abyss?
what makes you think they experimented with the void in hk
so their family is linked to the void, the idea of them not being linked to the void is not canon anymore
Yeah but it is a retcon nevertheless, contradictory info
right but
the old one was retconned
the new one is right
the shaman says a powerful source transformed the knight's spell into void
that GRIME boss was so peak
their knowledge of soul
you cannot be fucking serious with nkg and benedicta in the same tier
TRUE
ass take
i love tool abuse on big bosses
Ll also mogs every boss up to karmelita idk what you're smoking there
