hybrid flare
#

Yeah ||gurranq|| is cool

night vector
#

Yo what's that

hybrid flare
#

Elden ring

odd hull
hybrid flare
#

He has an entire ending dedicated to him

orchid spruce
#

@old compass press down + jump to jump off platforms

odd hull
#

Ooo I never found him

hybrid flare
#

Most interesting characters in elden ring aren't really interactable npcs either

odd hull
hybrid flare
#

There's a lot of stuff to do yeah

orchid spruce
#

lilies is entering its retrospective period

night vector
#

The only thing i know about elden ring is that ||tree sentinel||

orchid spruce
#

i don't remember much anymore except Harmonious

hybrid flare
#

like, a LOT, im still discovering new stuff each playthrough naturally

odd hull
#

I started Ranni's quests, but then school 🥀

orchid spruce
#

one day, i'll be able to play

night vector
orchid spruce
#

and join the AAAslop gang

hybrid flare
#

Towel you won't like elden ring this game has good areas

night vector
orchid spruce
#

i like good areas too

hybrid flare
night vector
#

Is ds considered AAAslop

hybrid flare
#

Was fromslopware owned by bandai before

orchid spruce
#

i would consider ds AAAslop

odd hull
hybrid flare
#

Yeah the publisher was bandai its AAAslop

night vector
#

Yeah bandai is big

odd hull
orchid spruce
#

is that parry

hybrid flare
odd hull
#

Yeah

hybrid flare
cunning geode
#

crush

orchid spruce
#

every good game has parry

hybrid flare
#

I mean you can naturally parry bosses in elden ring

odd hull
#

Yeah

orchid spruce
#

local, hesitation is defeat

#

face your foe head on and parry

odd hull
orchid spruce
#

she's gonna suffer a lot when she reaches that boss

night vector
#

I mean yeah that was so bad

orchid spruce
#

she's avoiding parrying

night vector
#

🥚

orchid spruce
hybrid flare
#

avoiding the main mechanic btw

odd hull
odd hull
#

And Ender Lilies, the goat

orchid spruce
cunning geode
#

orchid spruce
#

PARRY WHERE

leaden delta
brave geyser
#

thats one big ass tree

old compass
night vector
cunning geode
#

go on

crimson widget
orchid spruce
#

I parried a lot in Ender Lilies

brave geyser
hybrid flare
#

bloodborne has a parry

orchid spruce
#

It's supposed to be dodge iframes slop but I turned it into parryslop

old compass
hybrid flare
#

A parry that actually punishes you if you miss it because theres no 2nd hp bar

brave geyser
#

yay

orchid spruce
#

I think Lilies' parry is quite tight and you're punished for missing

#

But I parried pretty much everything

hybrid flare
#

good parries don't have posture bars 🗣️

orchid spruce
#

i don't understand the reference, haven't played peakiro

cunning geode
#

ah like third strike

brave geyser
#

the evil ass castle,,,

hybrid flare
orchid spruce
#

i know

brave geyser
#

the evil ass robot

cunning geode
#

HAL

hybrid flare
#

the only good parry ever is ultrakill's 🤤

orchid spruce
#

i'll try running peakiro

hybrid flare
#

its very well optimized

brave geyser
#

the worst parry ever is hollow knight

orchid spruce
#

50% chance my laptop explodes, the 50% i get to play peak

hybrid flare
#

shit isnt even a parry in the traditional sense

cunning geode
#

hollow knight's parry is like a clash but you can win the clash if you hit deep enough

brave geyser
#

do you call it a counterattack then

night vector
odd hull
# orchid spruce PARRY WHERE

After beating the game once, you unlock Maya — she uses a sword, has granades and techniques instead of weapons, and can parry instead of healing.

cunning geode
#

tf2 pyro almost has a full parry too

cunning geode
#

just doesnt work on everything

hybrid flare
#

Sekiro's optimization is absolutely incredible

#

It looks beautiful and it runs smooth

orchid spruce
#

The second issue that arises if I can run it is motion sickness

hybrid flare
#

3d games cause motion sickness? 💔

#

Towel now that i think about it

leaden delta
#

they can yes

old raft
#

dude i made to last wave of craw arena
and it spawned the big flying guy in bilewater and second sentinal 😭

hybrid flare
#

your pc can run ultrakill

#

but if you get motion sickness that game would prob kill you

barren dew
#

Hi

brave geyser
#

hi bon

barren dew
#

Hi ji

odd hull
cunning geode
#

Dusk letting the player spin their POV all 360 degrees up and down

barren dew
#

Why is there an evil version of me

odd hull
barren dew
brave geyser
#

because you let your evil side win

barren dew
#

True

old raft
#

NIGHTMARE

orchid spruce
#

idk why i suddenly develop it, i had no issue before

#

🤢

brave geyser
cunning geode
#

there are probably resources online that could help with that? like a guide for games that might be problematic for motion sickness

#

or better yet, mods that help alleviate those problems

old raft
orchid spruce
#

idk, i'm not playing minecraft anymore anw

old raft
#

it spawn a pack of enemy but there is a bomb guy

orchid spruce
#

maybe it's the screenshake

old raft
#

i saw an void

orchid spruce
#

i'll look into it if i can run sekiro

old raft
#

but its gone after that bomb guy blow up

cunning geode
#

yeah the head bobbing can be disabled

orchid spruce
#

i'm guessing the issue is that yeah

brave geyser
#

hey local

odd hull
#

Rusted Moss is so goated it has 3 playable characters

old compass
brave geyser
#

yo mama

hybrid flare
orchid spruce
#

🙁

hybrid flare
#

Or maybe because mc is slop...

orchid spruce
#

im not gonna lie, i did try sekiro

hybrid flare
#

When

orchid spruce
#

my laptop can run it but it was a while back when it was running better

hybrid flare
#

Do you know why or how was it running better?

orchid spruce
#

i got motion sickness and the first miniboss had a popup to explain the moves but i forgot and cant find it again

hybrid flare
#

Ahh poor thing

odd hull
orchid spruce
#

AAAslop!!

hybrid flare
#

A newborn could understand sekiro's mechanics

#

Using them is a different story ofc

orchid spruce
#

the thing is

#

i only skimmed it and accidentally closed it

hybrid flare
#

Iirc you can actually revisit them in the settings

orchid spruce
#

couldn't find it for the life of me back then

hybrid flare
#

dont remember quite

odd hull
#

There's a second tutorial you can access, anyways

civic island
#

Watch a youtube tutorial

orchid spruce
#

i'd rather have random checkpoints where i randomly get an ability and a tutorial

orchid spruce
#

not silksong

#

silksong is actually good, unlike this AAAslop named Nine Sols

orchid spruce
#

trueee

#

sekiro is lighter than poptlc

#

poptlc was like 25GB

#

please let me fight peakshin

hybrid flare
hybrid flare
#

But my fav ability acquisition is hk

old compass
#

ok so why is that only 0.1% of players defeated the first nine sols boss, I'm 100% sure it's my steam viewing it wrong

hybrid flare
#

every ability has an original source

orchid spruce
#

HK ability acquisition is the best of the ones I've played, I think?

hybrid flare
exotic cedar
#

nine sols get called a metroidvania and yet it doesnt have much exploring.... slop game..,

orchid spruce
#

Yeah, HK has the best ability acquisition

#

Second is Ender Lilies

#

The others are kinda random

fallow sorrel
#

I need to plsy ender lilies

oblique tapir
#

hk is literally goodslop 🙄

odd hull
old compass
orchid spruce
#

you only like hk because it's good smh

shell jungle
oblique tapir
#

i wonder if silksong collector's edition will ever be a thing...

cerulean sable
#

probs once all the DLC is out

#

HK CE only came around 2019 iirc

shell jungle
cerulean sable
#

TERWYYUREIEI

exotic cedar
#

im the person who made the fleas get lost

hybrid flare
#

silksong's ability acquisiton makes sense but it's less varied than hk

#

I mean depends on the ability

#

Faydown is likely my favourite out of every game

orchid spruce
#

I think it's mostly random as hell

#

Faydown and silksoar are cool

hybrid flare
#

Oh and also drifter's is different

exotic dome
#

i dont like silksoar

cunning geode
#

yeh the way you get double jump in silksong is very cool, the whole area leads up to it and then your reward lets you explore it much more freely

hybrid flare
#

Silksoar doesn't have much use in combat unfortunately

orchid spruce
#

I just mean where you get silksoar

exotic dome
#

drifters is cool but locked behind a boring fetch quest soo

cerulean sable
#

i personally think the "mandatory" ability like before the game diverged shouldve been Clawline

lavish apex
#

mount fay is so awesome

exotic dome
hybrid flare
orchid spruce
#

Mount Fay is like good but still a disappointment

cerulean sable
#

like Widow shouldve had Clawline maybe

hybrid flare
orchid spruce
#

Mount Fay could've had amazing map design

#

I remember jumping from Mount Fay to the prison, trying to find secrets and there's like actually no secret

lavish apex
#

it has fine map design for a platforming challenge area

orchid spruce
#

I was a bit disappointed

exotic dome
cerulean sable
#

trust in the Mt Fay expansion DLC

odd hull
orchid spruce
#

And the slope on the left had nothing of substance

cerulean sable
#

they should expand the west side of the map

orchid spruce
#

Surely, Mt Fay DLC will fix it

exotic dome
#

mt fay is visually peak

orchid spruce
#

precious slopes also

#

recipe to good map design is slopes, mio proved this

thorn oar
exotic cedar
#

mt fay was cool

hybrid flare
hybrid flare
lavish apex
#

mount fay is probably my favorite part of skong

hybrid flare
#

Not even a very fun enemy to fight

lavish apex
#

other than maybe like karmelita

cerulean sable
#

i do wish the ambience was a bit more pronounce for Mt Fay maybe unpopular

hybrid flare
cerulean sable
#

like i was hoping more sweeping violin ambience

orchid spruce
#

my favourite map design is probably shellwood

hybrid flare
#

I wish karak connected to mt.fay

odd hull
orchid spruce
hybrid flare
#

shellwood is peak lwk

orchid spruce
lavish apex
exotic dome
odd hull
#

I don't like shellwood

cerulean sable
orchid spruce
#

maybe you don't like the area but gotta appreciate the map design

cerulean sable
orchid spruce
#

i can't think of an area with better map design than shellwood in sk, at least rn

cerulean sable
#

i kinda ilked Citadel proper

#

probably closed 2nd maybe

orchid spruce
#

Citadel is big

exotic dome
#

choral chambers, bilewater, also deep docks maybe

hybrid flare
exotic dome
#

shellwood is good

cerulean sable
#

they should connect bellhart with bonebottom

odd hull
#

Shellwood is bad

cerulean sable
#

(no wait they already do just that it goes to the Marrows)

hybrid flare
#

Chambers is like the best area ever, it has everything i like

orchid spruce
#

Choral Chambers would be good if they didn't spam the column-branches formula so much before and after

cunning geode

#

the intro to this makes my smile grow sussier and sussier

orchid spruce
#

It makes the design unimpressive

#

Though it's still a good area

hybrid flare
orchid spruce
#

But map design? Renee_Dislike

hybrid flare
#

yeah you can go anywhere in chambers also quite open

exotic dome
#

what is column branches formula

orchid spruce
#

One big column, branches on the sides

#

It's literally everywhere

exotic dome
#

yeah i see

#

yea fair

orchid spruce
#

But the wheel part of chambers is nice

#

The symmetry is cool

exotic dome
#

i think it's columngem tho

odd hull
#

Wheel?

cerulean sable
exotic dome
orchid spruce
#

The wheel on the upper right side

exotic dome
orchid spruce
#

If it didn't have this wheel, I'll call this area's map bad

#

But it has wheel, so gud

odd hull
hybrid flare
cerulean sable
#

also i gen hope SoS just isnt an area expansion to the east, like i kinda wanna see them flesh out more of the existing map

#

surely surely

#

Phantoms of Pharloom yada yada DLC 2 yada yada go back in the past yada Karak yada etc

hybrid flare
orchid spruce
hybrid flare
#

Unlike mio's find little crack in the wall in a tetrahedron shaped tube

orchid spruce
#

I don't remember HK's map tbf so can't comment

exotic dome
#

column branches are better than long empty hallways

exotic dome
orchid spruce
#

The thing about this formula is that it makes the map easy to remember, so a pro here I guess

cerulean sable
#

overhaul ducts ong

orchid spruce
#

But kinda unimpressive design for a first playthrough

exotic dome
hybrid flare
orchid spruce
orchid spruce
#

climb up, go into one branch, exit, go to another branch

hybrid flare
#

not always the maps account for the little deviations there usually are

cerulean sable
hybrid flare
#

chambers has a lot of those

orchid spruce
#

sure, unimpressive nevertheless

old raft
#

guys do you think if he is ok

orchid spruce
#

it's fine, that's honestly a pretty tiny complaint that only arose after i play MIO

ornate latch
#

if they made ducts into a subarea might aswell keep the stilkin enemies they should put the flea camp somewhere else

orchid spruce
#

i didn't mind it when i first played

#

but looking back, i think it was overused

old raft
#

study makes you floating

odd hull
#

I love their design

old raft
#

ye they are so lcoked in the book

orchid spruce
#

that enemy has lots of details iirc

#

it like looks at the map with its small friend or something

odd hull
#

Yep

orchid spruce
#

or book

old raft
#

ye the lantern guy

worn sapphire
ornate latch

ye it is and you just said the name lol

odd hull

i don't appreciate it

#

don't throw lamp at me

old raft

you can hit the lamp

orchid spruce
#

i know

old raft

and it blows up on you

#

lol

orchid spruce
#

i'm number 1 silksong fan

#

i know 95% things about the game

ornate latch
lavish stratus
orchid spruce
#

the other 5% being the speedrun and all that

orchid spruce

10/10

lavish stratus

resisting the urge to add even more games into my backlog

odd hull

Nooooo

orchid spruce
#

iconoclasts

#

solateria

#

(solateria is a parry game carlton )

odd hull
#

A

#

That explains it

orchid spruce
#

it looks really cute too

#

iconoclasts has beautiful pixel graphics

#

i asked around but no one knew if it had the true save system so idk whether to buy

#

those pixel graphics games tend to have that

odd hull
#

The MC is so tiny

#

Have you played the demo? (Solateria)

orchid spruce
#

its graphics is like ori in a way but less blurry

raw pawn
#

oh what

orchid spruce
#

i didn't know it has a demo, i'll try it out

supple reef
#

ew

raw pawn
#

so can I get silksong for free with nitro feelspkman

orchid spruce
#

will try

#

or not, tbh. i trust the game is very good.

#

i think i'll love this game

sonic trench
#

genuenly moorwing fight sucks

#

the audio cues are nonexistent

orchid spruce
#

moorwing is good

sonic trench
#

the arena is weird

orchid spruce
odd hull
#

He is good

supple reef
#

moorwing is pog

sonic trench
#

sometimes it just flies above me for no reason

raw pawn
#

morewings

odd hull
sonic trench
#

i 100% the game with half the mementos and this boss fight is just plain unfun for me

#

i found BEASTFLY more fun than this

supple reef
#

it all depends on your positioning if you are close it will do the claw attack if you are a bit further then the flight

orchid spruce
#

It's the gamer's sixth sense

sonic trench
#

when i get far away from moorwing it does no audio cues and flies right into me like a missile

raw pawn
#

don't compare moorwing with beastfly

#

lmao

sonic trench
#

trash vs garbage

supple reef
#

beastfly isn't bad if you come to it in act 2 with like double jump or circlet

orchid spruce
#

moorwing's only real flaw is how he floats around unpredictably, it's just a good fight

#

you just gotta learn it

iron basin
#

Beastfly is just generally easy and moorwing got nerfed into the ground

sonic trench
#

well im fighting moorwing with 5 masks and hunters crest

orchid spruce
#

most people do that

sonic trench
#

no upgrades at all cause im doing 5hr speedrun

iron basin
#

That's one of the best in the game

supple reef
#

if you don't want to fight it

iron basin
#

Speed runners only use hunters crest 🤯

sonic trench
orchid spruce
sonic trench
#

but im on a time limit

#

its ASS it should at least do a sound when its near

iron basin
#

So? All the fleas are easy to find

supple reef
iron basin
sonic trench
supple reef
orchid spruce
#

what mark are you at rn

iron basin
#

Don't talk about speedruns if you complain about hunters 😭

orchid spruce
#

you should be able to get to citadel at 1h or 1h30m mark comfortably

iron basin
#

Yeah 👍

#

I can get to greymoor in around 10-15minutes depending if I am locked in

supple reef
#

to me it depends if its a 100 percent run or any%

iron basin
#

Any %is a easy 2hours for me

orchid spruce
#

my any% pb was 1h52m

iron basin
#

Mostly because you use hunters crest 🤪

orchid spruce
#

hhg was very sweaty

#

it was a huge chokepoint

supple reef
#

i mean hunter is generally one of the best crest

iron basin
supple reef
#

reaper isn't that good

orchid spruce
#

reaper is not good but it's really fun

supple reef
#

to me it feels like a noob trap

iron basin
#

Fr

orchid spruce
#

no problem having fun in a single player game

iron basin
#

It's to slow for the amount of damage you really need

orchid spruce
supple reef
#

i mean i am not saying you shouldn't use it i like its animations and attacks

orchid spruce
#

dash attack into pogo on reaper is really fun

iron basin
#

And wanderers

#

With the weighted belt to?

supple reef
#

i am not a fan of its pogo but i like the dash attack

fading helm
#

Guys were is new silk code

supple reef
#

hunter's pogo is the best tbh

iron basin
#

Fr

orchid spruce
#

i like it best too, but allegedly witch's pogo is the best

supple reef
#

true

orchid spruce
#

allegedly

iron basin
#

Beast is fun

supple reef
#

i am not good at using witch crest but its attacks and pogos are my fav

#

beast is my fav for bosses

raw pawn
#

It feels weird to not hear hornet every 5 seconds while playing hollow knight now

iron basin
#

Kck with beast

#

Good boss fight

supple reef
#

beastfly pt2 with beast

orchid spruce
#

kck?

iron basin
#

King crust khan

raw pawn
#

nyleth with shaman

supple reef
#

khann isn't even that good of a boss

iron basin
#

It's fun

supple reef
#

i like the gauntlet

orchid spruce
#

khann is a tutorial boss thrown into act 3

iron basin
#

It's easy aswell

orchid spruce
supple reef
#

really good design but the boss it self isn't the best

orchid spruce
#

he could've been in act 1 and no one would question it

iron basin
#

Seth is also really cool in act 3

#

My top 10

orchid spruce
#

he's pretty good but i didn't like his shield throw move

supple reef
orchid spruce
#

kinda brings the fight down for me

iron basin
#

kck in memoriam

#

If it had to be in act 2 I'd put it there

sonic trench
#

i kinda think act 3 bosses were easy..........

#

i only half struggled on lost lace

supple reef
#

that would have been cool. but he is also really important to the lore so memoriam will really bring him down

iron basin
#

Have you gone to act 3 💀

#

You struggle with moorwing gng

sonic trench
#

YEAH CAUSE I DONT HAVE MY CRESTS TOOLS AND SHIT

#

😭

iron basin
#

So?

#

The Start of the game is always harder than the end

sonic trench
#

i like playing slow so i dont struggle with bosses when i play normally

#

when im on a time crunch its all high cortisol

supple reef
iron basin
#

Probably cog flies with reapers bro 😭 ig

sonic trench
#

either reaper, upgraded hunters crest or wanderer

supple reef
iron basin
#

I'm guessing what his using or her

sonic trench
#

longclaw and volt filament

lost raven
#

aa i wish i could join the calls so i can just be vibing and playing silksong

No

I'm use to it

Not the boss battle though it's wierd and funky

Hmmm

iron basin
#

Pre widow warmup

orchid spruce
#

Controls always feel clunky after a while without lubrication

iron basin
#

I hate unskippable scenes

orchid spruce
#

I almost recommended nine sols

#

Close one

sage umbra
#

Nine souls is a great game

iron basin
#

True

dreamy nest
#

Bilewater is horrible

#

Lost 500 rosaries

iron basin
#

No

orchid spruce
#

True

sage umbra
#

but the music area is amazing

iron basin
#

It's easy if you memorise where every single enemy is 😊 😭

orchid spruce
#

I think it's a good area but I see why people hate it

dreamy nest
#

And those stilkins are horrid to fight

#

I have to spam bombs to kill them

sage umbra
#

Hahaha

iron basin
#

Don't fight them then

orchid spruce
#

Those enemies stink

iron basin
#

it's optional

#

Groal the great beater of runs

sage umbra
#

It can be annoying yeah

dreamy nest
#

Where even is the map for it

iron basin
#

Shakira

dreamy nest
#

After I get it, I'm outta here

dreamy nest
orchid spruce
#

Do you have double jump

dreamy nest
orchid spruce
#

Not much to do here then

dreamy nest
#

If I need double jump, them I'm cooked

orchid spruce
dreamy nest
#

I see

lone escarp
iron basin
#

I guess

dreamy nest
#

Tbh half of my frustration is with the fact that I tried to go through bilewater with beast crest

#

I can handle the down slash, no healing without enemies is what gets to me

light wolf
#

Does anybody know how I can open that closed gate near pilgrims rest?

iron basin
#

Restore to last save point

lone escarp
#

my first (and only) playthrough of silksong was so shit. i chose the worst routes, as in the funny items were picked up last, that's the one thing that sucks about games like this

iron basin
#

Is a thing

dreamy nest
orchid spruce
#

i think silksong's first playthrough is pretty bad, like 6/10 if you don't ride the hype to get you through

#

but it improves a lot in a second playthrough

dreamy nest
#

It already feels better than HK

orchid spruce
#

that's great to hear

lone escarp
dreamy nest
#

Especially the Aerial combat options

#

And meta was just abusing desolate dive iframes

in a second playthrough, the mechanics have room to shine because 1. you improved 2. the other aspects (exploration/story) become irrelevant

tools are trash, i wanna use the spider strings, i wanna use red tools but they cost shards, which i'm anxious to lose, so i don't use them, crests are honestly bad, their attacks look different, but have nearly nothing unique, or irrelevant, like reaper is supposed to gather silk, but the other crests do its job better, fuck relying on enemies to heal btw

I consider ss to have better level design than hk imo

orchid spruce
dreamy nest
hybrid flare
#

The issue of bad rewards stems from shards but ss generally has more collectibles to offer

orchid spruce
#

i have janky memories of hk so tbh i cant comment on map design

lone escarp
#

like wtf, why give us different attacks, if they're not gonna do anything different. witch has a cool pogo and sprint i guess.
and red tools - i wanna know which is better, sure don't give us numbers, but why are there 15 fucking throwables

dreamy nest
#

I make things frustrating for myself by exploring with it

hybrid flare
#

Nothing is quite as rewarding as a crest doe

orchid spruce
#

but i would comment that silksong's exploration is very unrewarding

flat mason

dude enemy rando is so hard

#

i just had 2 shakra chasing me in the whole bone cave area

dreamy nest
hybrid flare
#

It is only unrewarding in very shallow sections that have shards in em, which still serve a purpose ig but they just get fucking consumed by spikes

orchid spruce
#

probably remove "very"

#

"very unrewarding" is for GRIME

#

unrewarding is for Silksong

SK is not a soulslike, it's a DMClike

More rewarding than hk btw

Bosses dropped currency in Hollow Knight.

Y'all forgot about the 5 thousand eggs?

orchid spruce

hk always has good rewards

iron basin
#

This game is based off of needle combat is it not? Why focus on tools more then your needle skills

orchid spruce
#

or at least i dont feel disappointed

hybrid flare
#

the bosses dropping shit is true idk why silksong doesn't have that

lavish stratus

Geo didn't die upon falling onto spikes.

not even gauntlets

lavish apex

did you forget about the 5000 silkeaters and piles of shell shards that fall into spikes?

orchid spruce
#

tbh

lone escarp
#

like like like, please give us something other than throwables

hybrid flare

and 3 eggs

#

A tool that lets you like do a dash attack would be cool

orchid spruce

silksong is the worst at feeling consistently rewarding out of every non metroid-metroidvania i've played

I think people are complaining about the game in the wrong ways

You should replay hk and see for yourself

you are not asking the biggest hk fan to replay hk

orchid spruce

he probably played 100 times

i stand by what i'm saying

idk why shit falls onto spikes

You can get it in 2

lone escarp
#

compass isn't bult-in, because some people love counting room transitions i guess, fine, but why are there like 3 fucking slots, that's like making it cost 5 fucking notches??

lavish apex
#

a lot of charms in hk are also ass but that game has salubra notches to make them satisfying to get anyways and silksong lacks a proper equivalent to that

whispering roots and eggs are inoffensive because there are relics and other shit literally everywhere and a lot more of what you pick up feels like actually permanent increases to your strength

And anyone complaning by comparing hollow knight with silksong isn't really a great measure

Like they are 2 different games

when have you ever grinded out the roots

Whispering Roots are better than 17 mandatory fetch quests

i haven't and i also don't care

why do you care

hybrid flare

yeah there you go lmao

lavish apex

they don't hurt the game

hybrid flare
#

It's an exploration reward

lavish apex
#

you don't need to do them

iron basin
#

Yeah do that somewhere elsewhere, your feedback is clearly WRONG and NOT wanted

real hearth
#

i like the compass not being built in

lavish apex
#

yeah they are and it's crazy how even with some of them being nothingburgers it still feels way more rewarding than in silksong

hybrid flare

Roots are worse than the fetch quests btw since the enemies in the game are actually fun to fight

It brings more strategizing in how to get out instead of using just a bell beast

hybrid flare

very easy qol change to implement

real hearth

yeah some gauntlets are a bit unsatisfying

lavish apex

but also silksong wants you to be poor and suffer so you don't get little relic treats everywhere

They're satisfyingly hard

At least they're fun agoneyes

it’s not like the biggest issue ever but

I'd also say that having to pick on what to use your lockets adds dynamism to this whole thing

but we're comparing experiences here

and that's mine

Why are they making the game easier

torpid swift

Hollow Knight players doing nothing but insulting their sequel and any metroidvania that isn't HK

#

like bruh this is stupid

real hearth
# lavish apex you wouldn't be the only one but i think so yes

maybe this isn’t necessarily true for everyone but i think me being broke motivates me to fight enemies as i progress through levels / backtrack etc instead of running past everything. There is something to be said about certain enemies not dropping rosaries though

i am actually not just insulting silksong i think the current topic is something that's also done better by like 5 other games

Such as

nine sols, afterimage, blasphemous 2, mio, blasphemous 1 even

real hearth

Try nine sols

lavish apex

of course hk1 also as i've said

orchid spruce
#

nine sols is mid as hell, hell nawh

real hearth
#

the only one i tried was mio and i wasn’t that big of a fan of it

lavish apex
#

that said silksong is better than most of those games in a lot of other areas

iron basin
#

Guys they added a new feature I'm pretty sure

lavish apex
#

it's just a point of comparison

hybrid flare

I only insult mio sometimes

I can revert to my old saves and revert to the latest save also so I can just grind achievements

what did you hate about mio

#

as it is now the character is really small in comparison to the background in a lot of areas

hybrid flare

#

i can't remember if mio actually has a healing system other than the save points

real hearth
#

and it’s hard for me to see what i’m doing

hybrid flare

Because they're very detailed usually

#

woulda been distracting

orchid spruce

I think Silksong with less blur is fine. Hornet's red dress stands out pretty well
