Goldmask mogs
I see I see, haven't played the dlc yet
i like maliketh :]
Yeah ||gurranq|| is cool
Yo what's that
Elden ring
He is in the base game?
He has an entire ending dedicated to him
@old compass press down + jump to jump off platforms
Ooo I never found him
Most interesting characters in elden ring aren't really interactable npcs either
There's a lot of stuff I never did, actually
There's a lot of stuff to do yeah
lilies is entering its retrospective period
The only thing i know about elden ring is that ||tree sentinel||
i don't remember much anymore except Harmonious
like, a LOT, im still discovering new stuff each playthrough naturally
I started Ranni's quests, but then school 🥀
one day, i'll be able to play
Perhaps
and join the AAAslop gang
Towel you won't like elden ring this game has good areas
Good shi
i like good areas too

Ohh, nice
Is ds considered AAAslop
Was fromslopware owned by bandai before
i would consider ds AAAslop
Afaik Bandai just publishes stuff
Yeah the publisher was bandai its AAAslop
Yeah bandai is big
Towel will play with this mod day 1
is that parry
Yeah
Yeah
Shit i gotta try this
crush
every good game has parry
I mean you can naturally parry bosses in elden ring
Yeah
My favorite nine sols quote
she's gonna suffer a lot when she reaches that boss
I mean yeah that was so bad
🥚
nine sols totally said that
avoiding the main mechanic btw
That's why Rusted Moss has parry
Cells btw
And Ender Lilies, the goat
? 
cells?
PARRY WHERE
Void stranger I fear
thats one big ass tree
I'M ADJUSTING
Balls
go on
Dead cells
I parried a lot in Ender Lilies
how do we feel about this big ass tree
bloodborne has a parry
It's supposed to be dodge iframes slop but I turned it into parryslop
very cool
A parry that actually punishes you if you miss it because theres no 2nd hp bar
yay
Well, I played Lilies
I think Lilies' parry is quite tight and you're punished for missing
But I parried pretty much everything
good parries don't have posture bars 🗣️
i don't understand the reference, haven't played peakiro
ah like third strike
the evil ass castle,,,
Sweet
Peakiro has a posture bar
i know
the evil ass robot
HAL
the only good parry ever is ultrakill's 🤤
i'll try running peakiro
its very well optimized
the worst parry ever is hollow knight
50% chance my laptop explodes, the 50% i get to play peak
shit isnt even a parry in the traditional sense
hollow knight's parry is like a clash but you can win the clash if you hit deep enough
do you call it a counterattack then
Well it will perhaps run better than elden ring ig
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.
tf2 pyro almost has a full parry too

just doesnt work on everything
It does
Sekiro's optimization is absolutely incredible
It looks beautiful and it runs smooth
The second issue that arises if I can run it is motion sickness
they can yes
dude i made to last wave of craw arena
and it spawned the big flying guy in bilewater and second sentinal 😭
your pc can run ultrakill
but if you get motion sickness that game would prob kill you
Hi
hi bon
Hi ji
Heloo
Dusk letting the player spin their POV all 360 degrees up and down
Why is there an evil version of me
Trueeee
Hellooooo
because you let your evil side win
True
NIGHTMARE
i get motion sickness from minecraft
idk why i suddenly develop it, i had no issue before
🤢
and void
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
I DID IT
idk, i'm not playing minecraft anymore anw
it spawn a pack of enemy but there is a bomb guy
maybe it's the screenshake
i saw an void
i'll look into it if i can run sekiro
but its gone after that bomb guy blow up
yeah the head bobbing can be disabled
i'm guessing the issue is that yeah
hey local
Rusted Moss
Rusted Moss is so goated it has 3 playable characters
yes? (If you're asking why I'm leaving I need to cook dinner)
yo mama
Yeah mate you're going to explode
🙁
Or maybe because mc is slop...
i have to sit through so much to reach the good part tho
im not gonna lie, i did try sekiro
When
my laptop can run it but it was a while back when it was running better
Do you know why or how was it running better?
i got motion sickness and the first miniboss had a popup to explain the moves but i forgot and cant find it again
device gets worse over time
Ahh poor thing
Rusted Moss. I love some bunnyhop
why does sekiro explain 3 moves to you at a time with a closeable never-to-be-seen again popup
AAAslop!!
They're as simple as breathing
A newborn could understand sekiro's mechanics
Using them is a different story ofc
Iirc you can actually revisit them in the settings
couldn't find it for the life of me back then
dont remember quite
There's a second tutorial you can access, anyways
Watch a youtube tutorial
i'd rather have random checkpoints where i randomly get an ability and a tutorial
Ahhh
Ol silksong
Metroidvaniaslop
trueee
sekiro is lighter than poptlc
poptlc was like 25GB
please let me fight peakshin
Nine sols is good but random as hell
But my fav ability acquisition is hk
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
every ability has an original source
HK ability acquisition is the best of the ones I've played, I think?
its ubislop
Hes js that hard
nine sols get called a metroidvania and yet it doesnt have much exploring.... slop game..,
Yeah, HK has the best ability acquisition
Second is Ender Lilies
The others are kinda random
I need to plsy ender lilies
hk is literally goodslop 🙄
Nine Sols gets called a metroidvania and yet I don't defeat metroids or explore Transylvania.....
hk is literally bug propaganda
you only like hk because it's good smh
Pale king propaganda
i wonder if silksong collector's edition will ever be a thing...
Silksong: Silkheart edition
TERWYYUREIEI
im the person who made the fleas get lost
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
No it makes sense and you can see when you get em, but not much variety
Oh and also drifter's is different
i dont like silksoar
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
Silksoar doesn't have much use in combat unfortunately
I just mean where you get silksoar
drifters is cool but locked behind a boring fetch quest soo
i personally think the "mandatory" ability like before the game diverged shouldve been Clawline
mount fay is so awesome
oh yeah that is nice
Its not even that bad and these quests intice exploration
Mount Fay is like good but still a disappointment
like Widow shouldve had Clawline maybe
I liked mt fay
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
it has fine map design for a platforming challenge area
I was a bit disappointed
i usually reload the same room to get those or don't care about it and complete as i explore
trust in the Mt Fay expansion DLC
Yeah, it's pretty good
And the slope on the left had nothing of substance
they should expand the west side of the map
mt fay is visually peak
And peak gameplay wise imo
mt fay was cool
Oh widow is cool aswell
That's on you ig but yeah it's still a fetch quest
mount fay is probably my favorite part of skong
Not even a very fun enemy to fight
other than maybe like karmelita
i do wish the ambience was a bit more pronounce for Mt Fay maybe unpopular
its clawlinemaxxing which is good
like i was hoping more sweeping violin ambience
my favourite map design is probably shellwood
I wish karak connected to mt.fay
really??

shellwood is peak lwk
wdym really, it has the best map design in silksong
this would have been cool
it would connect if karak was in its glory
I don't like shellwood
not exactly like this but you know somewhat a similar vibe
https://open.spotify.com/track/5fVbe5tOT0RXnoiuktjFUW?si=b72e7155bc564d23
maybe you don't like the area but gotta appreciate the map design
now, sea of sorrow ambience...
https://open.spotify.com/track/5J3ysiPFsOyfa00oGN3bbI?si=fd7f378d98fb40e0
i can't think of an area with better map design than shellwood in sk, at least rn
Citadel is big
choral chambers, bilewater, also deep docks maybe
Ye but an established connection would explain the gorge's origin and mt fay's place in the kingdom
shellwood is good
they should connect bellhart with bonebottom
Shellwood is bad
chambers mogs 
(no wait they already do just that it goes to the Marrows)
Chambers is like the best area ever, it has everything i like
Choral Chambers would be good if they didn't spam the column-branches formula so much before and after
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLIdiAkBOE4 hornet should hear this upon entering the abyss, thinking its silent at first

the intro to this makes my smile grow sussier and sussier
Fair enough but it's varied enough as every one of those has their lil rooms and gimmicks
But map design? 
yeah you can go anywhere in chambers also quite open
what is column branches formula
i think it's columngem tho
Wheel?
and when she drops into the Lost Lace arena, it turns into a 1st person and Hornet must constantly circlestrafe Lost Lace while unloading her entire arsennal like the BFS (Big Fucking Song)
the corridor you control wtih the lever
The wheel on the upper right side
If it didn't have this wheel, I'll call this area's map bad
But it has wheel, so gud
Iirc chambers is the inversed formula cuz its mainly long hallways
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
The formula works well enough though, even if its like hk's main way to make maps
I mean, the branches connect from both sides, so I guess that's a change
true
Unlike mio's find little crack in the wall in a tetrahedron shaped tube
I don't remember HK's map tbf so can't comment
column branches are better than long empty hallways
(looking at you ducts)
The thing about this formula is that it makes the map easy to remember, so a pro here I guess
overhaul ducts ong
But kinda unimpressive design for a first playthrough
just halve it make it a subarea smh
I mean if you really like staring at maps and how they're shaped instead of what the actual level has to offer then idk what to tell you
nothingburger ducts 💔
they really just play like column-with-branches in those column-with-branches rooms
climb up, go into one branch, exit, go to another branch
not always the maps account for the little deviations there usually are
AND IF YOU CLOSE YOUR EYESSSSS
DOES IT ALWAYS FEEL LIKE NOTHINGS CHANGED AT ALLLL
chambers has a lot of those
sure, unimpressive nevertheless
guys do you think if he is ok
it's fine, that's honestly a pretty tiny complaint that only arose after i play MIO
if they made ducts into a subarea might aswell keep the stilkin enemies they should put the flea camp somewhere else
study makes you floating
ye they are so lcoked in the book
that enemy has lots of details iirc
it like looks at the map with its small friend or something
or book
ye the lantern guy
How did you get a flea companion? It is a mod?
custom hornet mod iirc
ye it is and you just said the name lol
The area is kinda dark, so some help is needed yk
you can hit the lamp
i know
dude launches a dead pilgrim at you
Traitor
the other 5% being the speedrun and all that
You're dead to me.
do i almost feel fear
More like uhhh 1/1
That would be the same thing.

resisting the urge to add even more games into my backlog
Nooooo
Like what?
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
its graphics is like ori in a way but less blurry
oh what
i didn't know it has a demo, i'll try it out
ew
so can I get silksong for free with nitro 
will try
or not, tbh. i trust the game is very good.
i think i'll love this game
moorwing is good
the arena is weird

He is good
moorwing is pog
sometimes it just flies above me for no reason
morewings
That's some high expectations
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
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
I knew I'll love ender lilies too
It's the gamer's sixth sense
when i get far away from moorwing it does no audio cues and flies right into me like a missile
no 😭
don't compare moorwing with beastfly
lmao
trash vs garbage
beastfly isn't bad if you come to it in act 2 with like double jump or circlet
moorwing's only real flaw is how he floats around unpredictably, it's just a good fight
you just gotta learn it
Beastfly is just generally easy and moorwing got nerfed into the ground
well im fighting moorwing with 5 masks and hunters crest
most people do that
no upgrades at all cause im doing 5hr speedrun
That's one of the best in the game
you can just skip it you know
if you don't want to fight it
Speed runners only use hunters crest 🤯
via flea caravan i know
it will always fly to you to close the gap when it's offscreen
So? All the fleas are easy to find
100 percent or speed run?
Try not going far away from him
Nahhhhhhhh
5hr speedrun
just skip it
what mark are you at rn
Don't talk about speedruns if you complain about hunters 😭
you should be able to get to citadel at 1h or 1h30m mark comfortably
to me it depends if its a 100 percent run or any%
Any %is a easy 2hours for me
my any% pb was 1h52m
Mostly because you use hunters crest 🤪
i mean hunter is generally one of the best crest
And then people say reapers is
reaper isn't that good
reaper is not good but it's really fun
to me it feels like a noob trap
Fr
no problem having fun in a single player game
It's to slow for the amount of damage you really need

i mean i am not saying you shouldn't use it i like its animations and attacks
dash attack into pogo on reaper is really fun
i am not a fan of its pogo but i like the dash attack
Guys were is new silk code
hunter's pogo is the best tbh
Fr
i like it best too, but allegedly witch's pogo is the best
true
allegedly
Beast is fun
i am not good at using witch crest but its attacks and pogos are my fav
beast is my fav for bosses
It feels weird to not hear hornet every 5 seconds while playing hollow knight now
beastfly pt2 with beast
kck?
King crust khan
nyleth with shaman
khann isn't even that good of a boss
It's fun
i like the gauntlet
khann is a tutorial boss thrown into act 3
It's easy aswell

really good design but the boss it self isn't the best
he could've been in act 1 and no one would question it
he's pretty good but i didn't like his shield throw move
nah the attacks are grand and cool design so act 2 would fit better if it wasn't for the coral tower
kinda brings the fight down for me
that would have been cool. but he is also really important to the lore so memoriam will really bring him down
i like playing slow so i dont struggle with bosses when i play normally
when im on a time crunch its all high cortisol
what's your usual setup
Probably cog flies with reapers bro 😭 ig
either reaper, upgraded hunters crest or wanderer
bruh what blue tools
I'm guessing what his using or her
longclaw and volt filament
aa i wish i could join the calls so i can just be vibing and playing silksong
Frrr
silk skill?
I'm here just to get 100messages
parry one
Sharp dart
lol
if it didnt take so long to activate id use sharpdart more

lol i didn't realise i had over a thousand messages i don't even talk here that much
Doesn't take that long
Huh
Aaargh I'm starting to get MIO shorts
Who
Bell beast
Ah
Took 10minutes 😭
lmaoooo
it's not that bad lol
Not having all your stuff right
Hmmm
Pre widow warmup
Controls always feel clunky after a while without lubrication
I hate unskippable scenes
Nine souls is a great game
True
No
True
but the music area is amazing
It's easy if you memorise where every single enemy is 😊 😭
I think it's a good area but I see why people hate it
Hahaha
Don't fight them then
Those enemies stink
It can be annoying yeah
Where even is the map for it
Shakira
After I get it, I'm outta here
I can see her rings but nowhere to her
Do you have double jump
No
Not much to do here then
If I need double jump, them I'm cooked

I see
in a very shitty spot, you'll probably have to go through most of the area
I guess
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
Does anybody know how I can open that closed gate near pilgrims rest?
Restore to last save point
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
Is a thing
Can I like aggro one of those squits and pogo off them
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
It's my first play through and I'm having a lot of fun
It already feels better than HK
that's great to hear
yeah, but by then you've already seen it
Especially the Aerial combat options
Only hiccups is some of the annoying enemy designs (stilkins, respawning squits)
overall, it has good mechanics. its exploration and story is its weakness which becomes irrelevant in a replaythrough
You have one move you can do in the air in HK
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
Cross Stitch.
This meta is thread storm
but i don't want a second playthrough, because i've already seen everything
It's still good after the nerds believe it or not
Red Tool spam.
that's what sucks
that's understandable
Nerfs
and honestly, the mechanics were disappointing too
Idk I think exploration is one of SKs biggest strengths
i think it is its biggest weakness
You need to go over it, and open from the other side
Shell Shards.
Running into something unexpected almost always yields some rewards il
How good is cross stitch actually? I heard about it but I don't remember what it does
Completely broken.
if you think so, that's good for you. frankly, i think the opposite. exploration is almost always unrewarding.
Designed way worse than DDark.
just have fun, don't think too much
Wait was it the one that you can pary with?
don't make me get in the way of your enjoyment
The level design really tickles me to explore every nook and cranny in a way HK didn't
Yes
Bruh
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 couldn't disagree less because of certain other metroidvanias i've played but it's great you're having fun
The customisation is nice, but yes a lot of things are badly designed
Yeah that shit's broken even though I didn't get it or ever beat phantom since I'm still on my first playtrough
Shouldn't it be "I couldn't disagree more"?
And in act 1
I consider ss to have better level design than hk imo
idk english is hard
As a beast crest main, I feel ya
The issue of bad rewards stems from shards but ss generally has more collectibles to offer
i have janky memories of hk so tbh i cant comment on map design
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
I make things frustrating for myself by exploring with it
Nothing is quite as rewarding as a crest doe
but i would comment that silksong's exploration is very unrewarding
Oh ok
Disagree
Go on
Beast down slash is fun to play with
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
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
Know what beast shards are
What?
Yeah
absolutely not
Bosses dropped currency in Hollow Knight.
Y'all forgot about the 5 thousand eggs?
hk always has good rewards
This game is based off of needle combat is it not? Why focus on tools more then your needle skills
or at least i dont feel disappointed
the bosses dropping shit is true idk why silksong doesn't have that
Geo didn't die upon falling onto spikes.
not even gauntlets
i can only remember how i feel
did you forget about the 5000 silkeaters and piles of shell shards that fall into spikes?
tbh
or... 5 essence
like like like, please give us something other than throwables
god, grime's item mechanic stinks
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
I've found myself satisfied with the tools and crests i got
Me too.
Sometimes I want to replay HK to make a proper judgement, but I feel like it wouldn't be fun
OH, ABOUT THAT
why THE FUCK is the magne brooch so fucking slow, AND IT DOESN'T PULL IN THE SHARDS, so i have to go back for the shards anyway, why do i hit a rosary deposit, and the rosaries JUMP OFF-SCREEN OR INTO SPIKES 9/10 TIMES. why the fuck did they downgrade the literal QoL tools so hard???
You should replay hk and see for yourself
i have brotherman
It states only rosaries gng
you are not asking the biggest hk fan to replay hk
like literally 5 times since sk came out
I agree
he probably played 100 times
i stand by what i'm saying
idk why shit falls onto spikes
Beating a boss is rewarding
i was replaying but stopped midway
Beating a few enemies in a arena is rewarding to
see i rarely ever was that's the gap here
Your just not into sk
Progress, a memento or nothing.
Can I get double jump before act 1?
No
You can get it in 2
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??
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
Any reason?
I got into Mount Fay (which is where I've heard you can get double jump)
The whole point of playing the game is to have fun and if you complain about the game don't play it?
Through the wardenfly
Most of the complains come from the difficulty
oh yeah, true. collecting useless charm still feels good bc of salubra. i remember now.
Memory lockets and the fact that you can use the "ass" stuff in sk
the amount of bounce is fucking comical
True but you need the harpoon first
i think i just jumped on a new game then forgorrrr 
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
w/ spell upgrades and stuff
3 slots quite literally made to host qol tools
And anyone complaning by comparing hollow knight with silksong isn't really a great measure
lmaoo fairss
"then don't play it"
i can pull up 15 video essays that have tackled that response
Two entirely different games
Hollow Knight is better though
Like they are 2 different games
They are innofensive because they're borderline nothing, especially roots
when have you ever grinded out the roots
Whispering Roots are better than 17 mandatory fetch quests
If you Complain and you can't do anything else about complaining stop complaining
real
yeah there you go lmao
they don't hurt the game
It's an exploration reward
you don't need to do them
or or or, get this:
feedback
Yeah do that somewhere elsewhere, your feedback is clearly WRONG and NOT wanted
i like the compass not being built in
yeah they are and it's crazy how even with some of them being nothingburgers it still feels way more rewarding than in silksong
Roots are worse than the fetch quests btw since the enemies in the game are actually fun to fight
It makes maps usable
?????
trueee, we should KILL all silksong critics
What are the roots?
we are not defending farming wishes die
except more than half the chat agrees with me and it's only you, dipshit
What?
yo be nice
This issue was ever present and people are just now realizing it in silksong
get out
real
Calm down Timmy tuffknuckels
we all like silksong no need to be hostile
I don't.
no we dont
we don't
we ALL hate silksong
because it's worse in silksong
It's a love hate relationship
TRUEEE, WE SHOULD KILL ALL SILKSONG FANS
ok well we can bond over that too!
Or just hate
i hate bilewater
we've got hostiles
I would say it is worse mainly because bosses don't drop jack shit
which is valid i agree
I love bile water
Neither do gauntlets for some reason
yeah that's the big one
Noooooo
It brings more strategizing in how to get out instead of using just a bell beast
very easy qol change to implement
yeah some gauntlets are a bit unsatisfying
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 
it’s not like the biggest issue ever but
I play the game to feel THE PAINNNNNN
im actually losing it in bile water
Need a little help?
Scrounge is also a greedy bitch so she won't give you decent amounts
you hate yourself until ur done and then you’ll say it’s the best area ever
vaultkeeper stuff
Don't fight enemies and use the bracelet
i could use help
doubt
how so
is it crazy to say that i like this
Yes, and stupid.
It's the best way to design something
memory lockets and eva shit a. culminate in exactly 1 reward that is actually good rather than a dripfeed of notches and b. are not clearly outlined
and also do not interact with tools in a tangible way
little harsh but i respect ur opinion
the barbed bracelet? i never used that im not sure what it does
the closest thing is needing to get enough to buy architect contributing to her total but that barely matters
It's just a way of working up to a reward and it's worth it
Nah the muck one
The reward is being able to use shit just like notches, eva grants you very important bonuses too
what does that do
Wrath of Purity or something
Instead of further access into useless dogshit
you wouldn't be the only one but i think so yes
Yeah it gives you like 5max seconds you can spend in bile
its actually like 30 seconds i think
It's not that long it can't be
purity + double heal trivializes bilewater kinda
part of what might be informing this for me is that i hate every crest other than hunter and wanderer
Yrah
I'd also say that having to pick on what to use your lockets adds dynamism to this whole thing
it was 15 then buffed to 30, iirc
Why are they making the game easier
Hollow Knight players doing nothing but insulting their sequel and any metroidvania that isn't HK
like bruh this is stupid
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've seen someone saying "cheap hollow knight copy" on a katana zero video
ouuuu shi i lowk dont have that 😭😭
No, many metroidvanias other than Hollow Knight are better than Silksong.
many are better than hollow knight
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
Worry not. I'm the Hollow Knight player that insults HK over any other metroidvania
W
nine sols, afterimage, blasphemous 2, mio, blasphemous 1 even
untrue!!
i want to try more metroidvanias
Try nine sols
of course hk1 also as i've said
nine sols is mid as hell, hell nawh
the only one i tried was mio and i wasn’t that big of a fan of it
that said silksong is better than most of those games in a lot of other areas
Guys they added a new feature I'm pretty sure
it's just a point of comparison
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
i’ve heard good things abt nine sols i was thinking of giving it a try at some point
yo
lets talk about why mio sucks actually
truthnuke
Helo
honestly i have a fundamental problem with the game which is that i think the backgrounds are way too distracting
sk discussion just shit talks every mvania i guess lol
Would you rather they blurred them to hell like in Silksong?
Ninesouls looks cool but I keep procrastinating playing it
i would like the play area to take more screen space
bad healing system, useless currency
I tried Metroid dread but the first boss in it has undodgable damage and pissed me off
truth nuke
as it is now the character is really small in comparison to the background in a lot of areas
If you've seen unblurred silksong backgrounds you wouldn't be able to play well the game
i can't remember if mio actually has a healing system other than the save points
and it’s hard for me to see what i’m doing
What? Why not?
I think Silksong with less blur is fine. Hornet's red dress stands out pretty well
these 2 things also suck
I played it with almost full details before
Hornet might, but not everything
TRUEEEE (never played it)
With how enemy packed some areas are too
you know i haven’t actually played metroid
Exploration is rewarding but not on an item level
i dont think you're missing out much
Mio's exploration has moreso rewarding experiences
But the item rewards themselves are shit
Its either nacre or some bullshit
every single S-tier metroidvania is modern day, except arguably aria of sorrow
Nacre being nothing
blur is literally needed, it's too distracting especially for new players
i actually almost uniquely hate metroid games a lot of people i know love them
yeah like the exploration is pretty fun and the item placement itself is pretty good too, just what ur getting isn’t super awesome personally
Nostalgiamaxxing
True, and the fact that there aren't too many characters in the game
also it looks beautiful lol
I love mio
and a SINGLE FUCKING VENDOR
how far are you in
I probably love it more than both hk and nine sols
mio is peak
yeah this is also an issue, there’s literally one vendor
im scared of mio
top 4 in the genre
honestly i’m not entirely sure, if i had to guess like 60-65%
true
mio is great
(that i've played)
of the way through
top 3 imo
true
have you got ||spider legs||?
but i stopped bc it wasn’t that fun
I really like mio it feels awesome
yes i have these
i like nine sols and hkss more
mio is beautiful.. like have you heard the soundtrack and voice acting.. and the worldbuilding
it's cozy
I prefer mio over ns but they're both relatively close
I'm all up for the coziness
but it's just like
a fantastic game
Oh, we stopped shitting on Mio. I am coming out that I think Mio is the best metroidvania
soundtrack is great, art direction is great, i really like the character design
executed for treason against silkkind
true..
interesting to hear from the #1 nine sols glazer
sonbrero
i am gonna crucify myself now
The silk slop klan is coming to your location
i underestimated him by alot
i like nine sols better, but trying to be objective, i think mio is the best metroidvania
its time to let her go
I personally think that ss is the best mv, but mio's a bit close
i'd say ns is better overall and mio is better as a mv
And i prefer hk over mio
Hi
Because hk nostalgia glaze yap yap
Heloo
Second sentinel is so cool I just wish their quest was easier on second play throughs
i should probably finish mio so i can actually get my thoughts 100% straight
- ss 2. hk 3. mio 4. ns for me
Lwk same
same with 1st sinnr
nah i replayed it and it's still 2nd
let who go
her
so much ragebait okay i'm sleeping
did you not even read the message
u know what happens to the shop npc after u buy everything?
this, for me
aah
people when they see opinions
- MIO, NS
- SS
...
98.
99. HK
insane
don't kill me
i'm so used to them dying, i basically treat them as background objects
everytime i see someone talk about ender lillies in here they hate it
the real ragebait is here
kill her
is that ragebait or do people actually not like that game
ns is my 2nd fav mv with silksong on 3rd hk on 1st
i was debating myself on if ns is better than hk but hearing the resting grounds theme affer 5 years ended that debate
hk better
lilies only flaw is bad enemy design. it has excellent map design and art direction
dw I like hk
same exactly
cuzzzz
I love seeing my goat
but it's just lower on the spectrum
fuck it why not
also heavenly music
maybe i give it a try at some point then
I just went to the location where that rhinoground bettle is right next to pilgrim's rest and I opened the gate to free it, and I expected it to be in pilgrims rest but when I went there there was nothing and still is nothing. I think I might have broken the game or I'm a dumbass
listen to this soundtrack named Harmonious Ender Lilies OST
this boss was the worst one
ns does not use its metroidvania elements well like objectively but i do not give a shit
i have too many things i want to try ngl
hate him
This
lol
WHA
I love Ender Lilies, it's the best MV I have played
even if you will never play it, just listen to this
whenever i’ve seen ender lillies the first thing i hear is that the combat is ass
biggest harmonious fan
Ender lillies doesn't exist in the game pass😢😢😢😢😢😢I'll sail the seas to get it
You're so real
i haven’t played it so idk but
everyone who ever played ns will die in 5 hours
no, its decent actually. its like "red tools if they were well designed"
rushes to the download page
interesting although i like red tools
Same
Does anybody if there's an explanation for this?
Sure some of them are broken but the ones that are often called shit are fun to use
I like the ending music too much, but Harmonious is a banger too
it’s in the shop up there
I'm enjoying nine sols so far...?
Mfs acting as if quickslash and hedgehog jade aren't a thing 💔
so you will love ender lilies system then
azure bow is red tools if they were well designed but nobody wants to hear it
Azure bow if anyone ever used it
harmonious is too peak
Huh?
but ending credits is peak too
like you know next to the gate there’s the little house where you pay money to enter and there’s a bench and a npc
Check my bio
rhino chud is in there
nine sols really had to make 9 games to be relevant 😂
Azure bow is lwk just free damage without any risk of usage whatsoever
The charge system is good icl
i do that
Well that's what I was talking about, its not there
ender lilies is just... a bit small, i think? compared to HK and SS. but it's pretty cool. i also couldn't get invested into it, as i did with HK
i used it a lot
Because azure bow gives you the world
u might need to bench in a different area
and lets you stop time
or something
Also did that, still nothing
mm good to hear
cloud piecer X was the best
I also did casually but once i got to like the later parts it was less and less used
@scarlet lion imagine not getting the joke
I think the combat is great, has good build variety too.
