And they have two different kinds of arrows, hornet's is a needle, others are a pin
Also the outlines are different and hornet moves her head when she's talking and also they have different voice lines
push comes to shove they put VN style portraits beside
Give me a bit I'll make something
hey i was planning it
If it's burning to the ground I want to be the arsonist to blame
Trobbio is a snitch
What’s gonna be the equivalent to Charms in Silksong?
No, Grindle is a snitch 
Tools
3 categories that we know of, two of which are passive and one is active mapped to RB by default
Most interesting
I tried to make her look like that one yiik guy
Idk his name I just know he looks stupid and annoying
yeah its def alex lmao
why did you give her fingers??
he does that shit and hes annoying as shit
the devs of the game are pieces of shit too for romanticising a real dead person
Who says she doesn't have them already 
I belive in hornet finger theory
this is so fucking good
finger theory
one big finger

one finger is still a finger
She's a spider for a reason
omg is that Rohan Kishibe from the anime JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 4: Diamond is Unbreakable
guys nacho fries are back at taco bell 
Too long have I suffered under the heel of dogshit rural internet and phone keyboards to lord my speed now over those who may come later
this time they advertise it as an anime
I don't

hornte
what a worthy cause, thank you
Remember to label fakes pls
this looks identical to Ari's style and would totally fool me
This is just the art style change for the cinematic flashback sequences that you control like dragon's lair
Input the correct direction to prevent baby hornet from falling into a garpede tunnel
balan's bout 
What's this a bout?
shit mockup but thats closest i could do to VN style portraits during dialogues( also this isnt real you dingus if you think its real youre probably a guy that unironically believes TeamCherryGanes is real then i feel sorry for you 😤 )
Ttaco wit da VFX 
Yo
I like the colored outlines
photoshop has like an insta "glow outside the lines" option
Yeah the outlines look really good
manual effort wouldve broken my fingers

TTacco abusing mod powers and not saying fake
who says it was :^) /s
are you paying for PS 🤨
hmmm

ANYWAYS
Not even I'm paying for Photoshop
it's too expensive for those who don't use it for their job
i just found it on my PC when they gave me the prebuilt 🥴
what if silksong is a turn based rpg game
i got it from like an office mom requested it from
god i have like a cursed idea
begone
Please no..
its not undertale i swear
I can't tell if that's worse or not
omori silksong

aluo made a fake like this once
Still an undertale idea

Undertale did invent turn based combat, but skeletons were actually stolen from skeleton boomerang
and yet in skeleton boomerang there's a skeleton that uses a gun, which was invented by resident evil

I thought that was benboquest
0h shit I forgot that game had a killer soundtrack
And then "real life" comes around and steals all of it!
This is the part where I make an “sus imposter” joke

O0 are not the same you abomination
0h.
What the fuck did I have a stroke
what have we become 
I seriously didn't mean to put a 0 instead of an O
How did you do that subconsciously

I looked at it and thought “there’s no way that wasn’t intentional”
Maybe it was a misclick and I didn't realize it, I am on a phone keyboard

That’s more passable of an excuse then
O0 looks more similar than o0, so it could only be at the beginning of a sentence

I come online at the greatest time again
is it likely that the game will come out this year? or am I just insane
There’s a chance but nobody except TC will have any idea on the likelihood of a 2021 release
well a chance is a chance
just don’t bank on it
better to focus on other things while Silksong is being worked on
That way the wait won’t be so bad
join the cult of the 2022 Feb anniversary release
February. 24th. 2022.
Silksong
i think hk fans should play deaths door
i am not joking
if we do not get news until the end of the year i am seriously betting for a feb anniversary
no lol
he’s gone full wacky
That's been discussed, yes.
we've all been infected by the radiance
that joke has been done to death ngl
Yarp
"silksong doesnt exist"
"silksong is just a dream"
"silksong is just a myth"
let me die
So the joke has changed from “Silksong no real” to “actually Silksong real?”
No...?
that wasn’t a question 👹
Yessir
Silksong is real but they put a mind fog over it
Fog of war

I farded 😭
🤨
I forgor 💀
tf
Any new silksong announcements
Nope
Ugh

Thanks

I’m stealing this for next time someone asks
Sspsa but better 
lies and deception
do y'all think there'll be dialogue options in silksong
No
There's a thing you can do with Chrome that can set the text
Not any more than saying yes/no
From whom?
7 minutes long demo confirmed
The actual game would display the icon, that's just a chrome thing
Any news

TC so lazy
aluo is OBVIOUSLY a dev
what'd I do

do i even want to know whats happening this time
my guess is as good as yours
So we've seen what, 10 or so bosses so far?
Whats the most masks hornet's had in those bosses
might need to look

if we use that info we might be able to gauge how many bosses there are that we havent seen
the hp bar isn't all that accurate
what would be a more accurate way tho?
Dang
i think we linked up some areas with each other but I forgot the details
hey guys after many months am finally back is there any news about when silksong is comming out
?sspsa

oh ok
you sound disappointed
I think its gonna be at most a year
well after reading it just now i sure am
well at most i would say year and 3/4 actually
a couple of character is showcases is cool but they still dont even have a certain date down huh
typing silksong releases date shows multiple videos saying silksong is comming out soon from a couple of months ago
it's a big game, kind of hard to place down a certain release date
each one a different date
Soon™️ means nothing for games
is there a forum or something so i could check all this out?
Yeah i mean seeing that we were going to get this game in 2019 there's no real estimate
it's all just guessing based on silence by Team Cherry
uh, we have some docs
Please show.
that wasn't confirmed? it was just expected by fans
im just hoping their silence is worth it
but from the looks of youtube im not the only one going insane
I mean that people have been "expecting" silksong for awhile now. Any estimate can be horribly wrong.
could you link the docs?
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aF40gOitfDlWyzcIjY_l546WNbGduyu1A54ZpMU62RY/edit i think this should be the one
Puppetmaster Theory Unclear Origin The basis behind Puppetmaster theory is that all (or almost all) bugs in Pharloom are controlled by Silk threads, in some way connected to or controlled by the Citadel. Pharloom has been called “cursed” in the Nintendo Treehouse Direct Event. The kingdom is a...
i am not sure though
thanks
its cause people love this game very much and to be fair we are pretty patient compared to other fanbases cough(cyberpunk)cough(2077)
you sure bout that 
which one, us or the cyberpunk fans
us
i still rememeebr when someonne told me that ss would come out after cyberpunk
the fact that that game released and exposed what unpaitent fans could do probably helped
us out with out patience
no one wants a cyberpunk 2077 game
they said that crowsworn will release at max 2023 right?
not too sure
and leth told us that silksong would come before crowsworn
sooo
generously
that is still roughly 2+ years away
just to put things into perspective
yeah but at least we know that its not going to be after 2024
we already spent 2+ years waiting

2 more won't hurt
ok you're right
two more years, oof
time to do other stuff i guess
2023 would surprise me
given what they were saying pre-kickstarter, if it comes out in 2023, itll definatly be smaller then HK
Though thats not a demerit against it
really? do you think so?
i mean, theyre already working on it before, what if
hmmm

yeah
look at cyberpunk
whole 7 years (idk?) of development and the game came out like that
they made it clear before the kickstarter that the project was still pretty new, yes they were working on it, no they hadnt made significant progress
Apparently cyberpunk got scrapped midway through so it was actually less than 7
oh i didnt know that
Infact, always true, its just the degree to which its true that changes
cyberpunk has a lot o content, but so does skyrim
and skyrim took only 6 years
google says cyberpunk took 9(? holy)
wasn't it stuck in dev hell for a while
which one?
Yep, includng right up to release
i have been waiting for a game for all my life and there's no news in sight
Atleast for the devs, shame on CDPR, i just didnt buy the game on launch cause i disagree with their abuse of their employees
me and the boys rn
only a "yea we're still working on it, i guess"
maybe? who knows
pikmin 4
😔
To be fair we got the stuff from edge, which showed that they had gone back through already done areas and redid atleast their art, and likely their design
wasn't talking about silksong
i just hope we get some sort of news till the end of the year
bc its kinda uncomfortable to me being in the blank like this
play other game
silksong gba fan game (it actually exists)
sandbox games
yours is cool too
I don't see anyone else talking about it, but the riddles they gave us were a lot of info
also the quest system gives me ori vibes idk why
dont know this one, gonna look it up
amateur
Basically
Cuz im done with everything in HK
i now feel the agony you guys have been feeling for two years
yeah, i think i had 5 dreams about silksong since the e3 demo
I accidentally had #hk-announcements open instead of #sk-discussion and was excited that Benji was in chat 
NOOOOOOB
I watched it like 6 times min TODAY
OH MY GOD
THE FLEAS LOOK SO FUCKING CUTE
THEY ARE ACTUALLY WORTH SAVING, UNLIKE THOSE FAT GRUBS
I'll kill you

Grubs are based
THE GRUBS CAN NEVER LIVE UP TO THE TRANSCENDENT FLEAS
based on what
Based on the hardware that's inside them
It's been a while

P5 AB and Hitless 
Hornet's bind ability is literally just deep focus + quick focus premium


finally some good tips
Dafuq
What is the general theory on when ss will be released? Like what do most people think
silksoon
I mean we have an indie world this month and a direct next month probably so I’m being hopeful again
wait when did they announce an indie world?
we have an indie world?
showd is a nintendo intern 
They also never confirmed a direct next month
at this point idt ss is gonna be announced through a direct anyway
will that stop me from clowning whenever there's a direct? absolutely not
but i still think tc is most likely to just do it themselves
Is there a specific date for the indie world @raven minnow
barge in #sk-discussion
says something about an indie world and a direct coming soon
refuses to elaborate further
leaves
Everyone here is losers anyways
Like Nintendo won't even say anything about the upcoming pokemon DP remakes
Then a Nintendo indie world is about to show spelunky and necromancer again and some little kid animal games idk
we can hope
new hornet quotes on silksong includes
edinho, chaaaa, paparáa, egale, garaba, hoho humhum
lmao
@serene jewel no there isn't but theres always an indie world in august
so it's not technically confirmed but that and the nintendo direct always have happened in august and september
Apparently theres been a 'leak' about a direct in september
Not sure about indie world
Well It could be that ss will not be even in an indie world, could be in a normal direct tbh
Silksong deserves a normal direct
it's still technically indie tho
still bigger than most games featured
I have a feeling that we will get an indie direct soon.
Crowsworn isnt set to release for years
it isn't related to nintendo, too
They could announce a port though.
What no sleep does to a mf:
(I'm the mf)
Its already confirmed on their kickstarter I think
it's generous
Well, then it is related enough to nintendo to eventually be on an indie direct, no?
Pyro?
Yee.
It says itll release for the main three consoles and steam
who knows, who knows
Could be wise to garner a fandom though
If they show it off people will learn about the game and the community will grow enough to increase sales on launch
still 2 1/2 years away
i mean a lot of hollow knight players have seen purely because of that whole thing of it being an hk copy
don't ask me, I have no clue
there's definitely the bleed-over from the hollow knight fandom
Actually if they show it off before silksong gets more news the stream chat will probably riot
I remember that happened to that other game actually
raid ?
:Hmm:
Are we talking about Crowsworn?
we did, half an hour ago
I think Silksong release date will be announced during next Indie World showcase, which will be this month probably
why would it
Because i think so
optimism is a virtue! :)
See? There are no flaws in my argument
yeah not at all

I hope Leth doesnt do more: "Yeah no silksong at direct" because it ruins the fun of being excited. I understand that Its chaos when he doesnt say that and people are dissapointed but geez
silksong is a pre or sec?
both, neither
Not confirmed yet
a sequel and a prequel at the same time
one or the other... we have no idea
k
between sec and pre
i think sequel, but I argue in favor of prequel...
finally, a logical end to the argument
Its actually a puzzle game spinoff
December 5th...

gacha game
please not another meme date...
A tcg game
Just imagine Team Cherry casually releasing Silksong without info. That would be pure chaos but it wont happen. But imagine...
i'd rather not imagine
Everyone already wishlisted it and will get an email
Also what do you think the price will be? The same, slighlty more expsnsive, heavily more expensive or maybe even cheaper
the same
I think it will be at least 5 bucks more expensive
Silksong shadow drop tomorrow????
confirmed?!?11?!!?!1?!1?!?
Oh its a new day folks
...
then take the game off steam for a short time before adding it again 
...
Someone will notice it. Even i sometimes check it 
...
How to end a conversation 101 
...
So is silksong still a thing?
Last time we got news was like december 1944


hello fellow Silksong anticipators
oh, I feel acclimated
still hopeful for a late 2021 release
seeing that much of the pessimism which projects Silksong's release to late 2022 or even 2023 comes from no E3 news or no news in general
no news doesn't necessarily mean problematic development process in my opinion
it's hard to stay positive
I understand
I am going with the mindset of "we have no way of accurately predicting anything" so I'll choose to believe it's coming soon
aren't you setting yourself up for disappointment then
id rather be overnegative and be pleasantly surprised than be overpositive and be disappointed again
eh, I'm not so dissappointed
I mean, if it doesn't come out in october I can just play Metroid dread 
I believe I'm not being 'overpositive'. I'm rather open to all outcomes.
my pain comes from the fact that it's not out yet and i want to play it, if my belief isn't accurate this doesn't change
i want to talk about silksong again
sorry yeah i meant just positive
but there's just nothing to talk about
Metroid Dread was very happy news, but I'm afraid it's going to be a very conservative game.
let's talk about the flowers 
Yeah but they aren't gonna tease us with much so we just have to wait and see what it plays like.
we've seen plenty of Dread's gameplay though already!
Dread just doesn't look good to me
And i frankly don't really care about it
though Death's Door came out, I've yet to play it, but it looks good
I wanted to play Grime, which looks special, but my laptop couldn't handle it sufficiently
#sk-discussion is more like "talk about how much you want silksong to be out and other unreleased games"
post calling out the state of #sk-discussion number 1347
yeah
mods are caring enough to understand
either way, discussion hasn't ever strayed that much
have you guys seen this?
ye
found out about it today
you should've seen this channel like 4 months ago, it was unbearable
Also the robots in Dread seem terrifying
looks cool
yeah, it looks interesing but not actually that great to play


Which hornet skin


my strategy for silksong waiting is i always believe we'll get a release date a week from now
so now i think we'll get one on august 11
but tomorrow i'll think we'll get one on the 12th
it's always in the future so i'm never wrong, and someday i'll be right
what if honret
but small honret

unless they anounce a release date more than a week away
then you'll have guessed wrong
no because my expectations shift constantly
so i can never be proven wrong when the date actually comes because by then i've retracted that theory
and someday we'll actually be a week away from a release date
No becouse you are right after being wrong
who are you stranger
i dont know you
wait
i was joking because i thought you were chief but youre someone different with the same pfp LMAO

sherma kinnies are everywhere
Who the hell starts a conversation like that
drug dealers
Your definition of sexy bastards doesn't match up with mine
what is this?
little fan game someonde made
demake
it has the moss grotto and deep docks
^

I’m not breathing rn
Congration
Am going insane
That is your name
If there's a direct in September what would they even show? They have all their cards on the table really
Not silksong 
Could be something to do with a late Zelda anniversary bundle? That would be my only guess though
HAH! thats you
(Tava querendo o link pro seu discord meu lindo)
there's going to be a direct? wow
Nopenopenope - all heresay that I'm reacting to

I want Silksong
I'm gringo.
The link is in the banner

no six month news 
Q4 2021 silksong news 
Nahhh Q1 2022
But that's just me going off Leth's comment about liking to release at the start of the year
my thoughts have been archived
I mean hopefully we'll get some news at least in Q4, but I don't expect release in that period
🥺
TGA fits both of your hopes
I think hollow knight Silksong is guaranteed to not have news tomorrow
proof?
If it does, someone will buy you nitro
My gift of prophecy
definitely shadow dropping tomorrow.
What is nitro -.-
Pay money to discord and be able to use emotes from other servers; animated ones, and send larger files
Basically discord premium
pink name
I have recently been gifted nitro.
Ngl discord could charge for the free version
If you server boost that is
profile banner
Wouldn’t work out. Needs to track lots of easy data to make the money back from hosting most of the servers.
I mean this is basically just Skype but way better, and skype was never paid for
Everyone would boycot
Discord is the most organized and flexible hangout app AND ITS FREE lol
Basically, yeah.
Debatable, but it has decent VC quality and integration
Ye but it’s so accessible
Woah, I wouldn't go that far... Have you heard of teamspeak?
/s
Spoken like a true discord exclusive user
True dat
I’ve used google hangouts my whole life.
Don’t u dare try to open my mind. Mightier men have tried
Getting voice chat at some point, so that’s cool
No but seriously? Discord has some blemishes
G'day pillow
Discord is a closed networked platform open networked platforms are annoying because anyone can join the convo while Discord can have private servers and active chat
Also Discord logs are held by the devs who aren't a private company that would sell your info out
I had a fake idea but it's gone now
G'day Orange 
Paid discord would get so much backlash
What was the location?
Time for a little more trolling?
he rember :)
Fake of Seth final battle at the citadel high chamber 
Pretty much every social networking platform is free
Fake of Seth getting Ice cream at a stand
You are no longer afraid of making funny fakes
Hangouts gang
is it out yet

funny

It’s gonna be so weird when the game comes out
Yeah. Actual lore to discuss again
Yeah truly... I need to figure out how to block spoilers
yeah this channel is gonna be locked down
Cept I won’t be here for about 3 weeks.
all them folk who like to come in here for chit-chat are gonna have to find another place
the endtimes
truly
We'll always have hk-offtopic lol
We’ve spent so long speculating and??? It’ll just drop and we’ll be able to see everything???
Won’t matter to me regardless, the first few weeks of release I’ll be gone from the server to avoid any and all spoilers
i'd love to say we won't discover everything instantly and people will actually have to play the game but datamining exists
I don’t even know what the bone bottom theme sounds like, even with the sample available
I'll be in this channel day one of SS I never minded spoilers in games the journey matters more thany any knowledge I could have on it
Cause I wanna hear it for the first time as I enter the area for the first time (hopefully)
I can’t find all the tools and shards on the wiki this time around
I hope I'm active in the server when release trailer drops... I want to see the nuke of all nukes
It's a vibin theme
I kinda couldn’t avoid lace’s theme, but whatever
Lace's theme is so hype
Ha I forgot what lace’s theme sounds like
i wonder if lace is a hard fight
It’ll probably be hard due to the different physics and stuff to get used to
I think most people who did the demo found it hard, but I imagine it would be alot easier for us (as we will have way longer to get used to Hornet's combat flow)
It’s probably equal to the hornet fight in hk
tbh i kinda wish silksong was a dlc so they could make it way harder
As in the demo they just had Moss Grotto then skipped almost straight to the fight
There was a whole part of the deep docks???
Not being able to pogo will be hard enough don't worry
wait what
And yeah, but it was relatively short
#ss-lore 
You go straight down at an angle instead of pogoing
homing pogo, pretty cool
Definitely not homing
Not necessarily homing
you can probably only do it once
and not homing
so you can go either bottom left or bottom right?
but not bottom completely
yeah i hope they change that
It fits hornet more
^
i guess we'll see how it plays soon
i mean stages and enemies will be designed for this new moveset
It's going to be useful for Silktroden aisle of agony

Time to learn how to do explosion effects
How's it going my speculators?
think one #hk-lore is enough
Could you save the hud as a layer in photoshop and just export it in everytime
I had a pic of one saved but I deleted it thinking I wouldn't use it
Imma just post it without a HUD 
Hornet's new tool, The World time bomb
don't we all 
false, if you get silksong, the rest of us get hurt
please, team cherry has my family hostage ;-;
Dont steal silksong
I believe someone at team cherry said that the game's main content is like 99% finished and they're polishing the game
no
nope
god, that quote is gonna haunt leth till the end of time, aye?
Its a misquote, he was speaking hypothetically
Leth said nothing about how far along the game is 
Out of context, he was using a hypothetical
Not an out of context, because the context is in the post
True
"that sign cant stop me, because i cant read"
People just look over it
Yeah, nothing has been said about how far along they are really
Except for the last blog post that is
if there was, it'd be quoted fucking endlessly
Are blog posts only made on special events or can they just be randomly dropped out of nowhere? I haven't really cared about the blog until a bit ago.
this will be a funny video huh?
Nah, if you look at the actual quote he didn't mean it like that
Bruhhhh how could you take one quote so out of context ffs
desperate ppl
^
Unsuprising it got that many views. Even through the out of context quote, automatically assuming that means june is a bit odd
or however the misunderstanding happened
I mean I suppose that you could, but once you really read it over you notice the emphasis on "could say"
Ok found the leth quote, here ya go
He addresses this in a tweet
wamt silksog
Cheers Wombat
Clink
God damn traitor
I'm personally offended
let him be
Im obviously joking
No, really? 
I mean like if there's nothing to do in terms of marketing right now for silksong then he really does have all the time in the world for Crowsworn
We see him a lot in the CS Discord yes 
Makes enough sense
Tell him we miss him
imagine how slimy SS fans would sound 
Leth stole the hollow knight source code and gave it to the crossword devs which is why it's the exact same game. Has anyone noticed that Crowsworn is the exact same game? Has any
Crowspiracy
he was sworn to secrecy...... crowsworn
I can't fucking believe I didn't notice crowsworn getting rewritten as crossword
Lmao
I'm leaving it
Gullible people ruin fun jokes because people will actually believe them and bandwagon against something that's just a joke

Yo where'd all this truth come from bruh... put the truth down before more normies get hurt

I can't enjoy a good joke here without worrying that some dullard will believe it and wide spread the fake info somewhere else
"bruh hornet isn't void are u stupid or somethin?"
Not that one
Im surprised we havent gotten the SS in 2 weeks articles yet
More like when people make CS ripoff jokes or anything relating to SS release
wym
Someone ask graig to say "It comes out in 2 weeks" and he said it. Im surprised that all the shitty game sites didnt jump on that
Lmao
every server ever
If it isn't out in two weeks... We'll put Graig in meme-jail
what is ur guys favorite silksong character that has been announced
Hornet
Carmelitia or Bellow
oh my god it’s pops from hit cartoon regular show
woah pops your so cool
jolly good show
Definitely Lomm or Sherma
Lomm is cool
who is lomm
poop village
I wonder how different the color balance is going to be from the trailer and the game
Hopefully not much, the crystal like area looked incredible
Crystal area?
uhh i'll find a ss
I think you mean coral
Was that coral?
We believe so
okay yeah that was coral
I really dont know how they could balance the colours in SS. Seriously they look amazing
I don't imagine the colors would change much - as the HK trailer was super super drab, but the SS trailer is not drab at all and I don't see why it would need to get even more saturated
Hallownest was kinda a drab place
I think that was mainly a design choice because of the atmosphere of a post apocalyptic kingdom
ss is definitely gonna be more colorful overall, to match the feeling of a more lively kingdom
Yeah truly, we can already see that as well which is epic
Yeah but there are some places that aren't super colorful but look incredible like this place
Not super colorful but still is very different from HK aesthetically
If we look at the clocktower as well - it's not so colorful but the background detail in the moving gears is so sick
(0:36 in trailer)
I think the main thing about the environments that hooked me is the enemies, having harder enemies that can really pose a threat will hopefully be flushed out, like the bell head enemies that can't be downslashed by hornet
Yeah and seeing the AI will be awesome
This reminds me of something like CoT where you can see the sides of the buildings you're in inside, and a huge sprawling city outside. Amazing stuff
I just hope they take their time and fine tune these places, there's so much potential here
also the lace fight song is incredible, good to see we already have a Mantis Lords/NKG teir track in here imo
I love hollow knight's art style more than any other game don't get me wrong but silksong I feel is going to look much better to me with the brighter colors and less dark and abandoned feeling
which will most likely fit the game's storyline and plot
SS may be the best looking game ever
I think SS will probably be the greatest metroidvania
Already, it looks incredible, wouldn't be suprised if that's my opinion after full release
Hollow Knight’s aesthetic is pretty intentionally vague and decrepit
The combat looks so flushed from the small parts we've seen, i'm pretty comfortable agreeing with this right now haha
An abandoned kingdom
easily
hollow knight is my favorite game of all time and I got into it not even that long ago
the art style and character design is phenomenal
What remains to be seen is if something like the hall of gods will be in SS. In my opinion that'd make the game just that much better and complete on launch, it wouldn't feel right without it.
you remind me of lasagna
hopefully they put it in somehow
?
I mean the godseekers travel across kingdoms, so it wouldn't be impossible they also appear in farloom.
considering how long it's taking to come out and the budget team cherry has now silksong might be bigger than hollow knight
true
best to not get your hopes up though
I highly doubt silksong will dissapoint me though
They talked about how much they're working on it being huge in the December sign off, although that could just be an exaggeration, although i also thought "150 enemies" was impossible and a joke, but it wasn't, and that's something i'm also incredibly excited for.
I think most people have theorised a different version for a boss rush/rematch system
While i doubt they'd copy and paste, godhome was so polished i wouldn't even be mad
More of like a encore system, where there's a concert master who will allow you to 'hear the song again' kind of thing
Pantheons to create a true final challenge, and hall of gods for replaying that one boss you love
this person
That would tie in with the song part of the game, so that definitely sounds plausible.
very plausible, actually lol
Yeah we've seen barely any of the song part of the game so far, interestingly enough
It seems like a windwaker sort of deal
learn different songs that allow you to pass doors
bass needle real shit
silksong when?
Needle Double bass

I think SS will probably be the greatest game
GGOAT
you want me to say it?
silk will be the greatest song

funni command
Man don't ruin my fun
I still fear the day the game releases, this server is going to crash
i will literally leave the server the day before it releases cause i believe there will be people spamming spoilers in every chat or something
i know it would happen
i am muting this sever and putting it in the forgotten folder until I am done with the game
Prosafia gaming:
yeah. somebody will probably go into the files and Leak the last boss or smth
Because that's super fun
woah new ss leak!!!
Every single time I check the server and see Graig, something about his profile picture just throws me off. Like, this surely isn't the man employed by and working so closely with Team Cherry, with such a meme-y and poorly drawn, yet somehow amazing, profile picture. And yet, it is the man.
Man that's literally just sly
Contrary to the popular belief, developers are people to some extent
It's literally the worst rendition of sly I've ever seen lol, which is why it's hilarious
Well, now that incarnation of sly is technically canon
Just amazing
you bet I'll leave the server once release date's out
and get back in after I 100% the game
Silksong is a crowsworn knock off

Graig if your here can you confirm the final act of silksong is a dating sim. The fans must know
Zote with a desert eagle
Thank Jesus the chat is somewhat dead now because if it was active everyone would have jumped right at graig's throat as soon as he appeared
Silkcart?
not really
the people here know that asking him won't get anyware
new challenge
go into #hk-meme until you see a meme that you've seen before

Lost 3 images up
fuck im bored lets talk about backtracking again
i am bored too.idk what to do 😦 well last week i timepassed with my unhealthy stomach pain though xD
we should discuss xcom:enemy unknown :)
something something i often see people who loves metroidvanias yada yada dropped hollow knight because the backtrack ratio either from bosses or the in general dead end nothing to do happens often to them yada yada is what do you feel about it, is this something SS could alleviate, do you agree, do you disagree, why is it HK is often the metroidvania we see that this comes up with, etc etc
sure
get high ground, put snipers in overwatch, push your low end assaults to get destroyed by muttons while your sniper reaps in the EXP
rinse repeat
Hollow knights backtracking ratio is really low though?
and map pins allow you to quickly find places locked off by power ups again
ill get some excerpts
and the stag station lets you move so quickly around the world that much of the pain of back tracking is pretty null
i see this types of comments often when it comes to HK
on my first playthrough i was using too many pins to memorize many things.I backtracked a lot I enjoyed the backtracking so i was never a problem for me in hollow knight but i feel bad to backtrack in some games.
Hollow knights map is fantastic though?
it looks nice, it updates nicely, and it pretty clearly shows areas you havent explored yet
Like, theres alot worse in the genre when it comes to maps and navigation.
I minimized my goals in hollow knight like 1)I tried to grind too much geo to buy all charms and charm slots to not worry about them anymore 2)I kept small goals like i must explore and find all nearby maps and stag stations to not backtrack much. I was new to metroidvania. The only game i played before hollow knight was Ori. For people who playing too many metroidvania games can feel pain i guess.Well there are people who feel pain even if it is their first metroidvania. I think it depends on their interest to keep going on or not.......
tbh i do get the pain from backtracking and a part of me does wish theres better backtracking in hk but otherwise? its not unbearable
I felt pain to grind for geo.It took me few hours 😦 but felt worth it later . Because later my game never stopped me from buying anything .Also game felt easier with too many slots,charms,nail strength when i over explored and grind :3
There is no possible good way to design hollow knight map better without backtracking :V .it will become linear isnt it? if there is atleast this minimal backtracking . RIP my english. nvm xD
I agree yea. I tried hollow knight my first time, grinded enough geo for lumafly, but then died twice and lost all of it and quit out of frustration. I tried it again a year later and fell in love. I think the back tracking and exploration will be the same, but they inherently made the early game easier with rosarie strings which I for one love
It's kind of the entire point of the metroidvania genre to go back to a place now that you can access it with a new ability
As for geo grinding I did a recent repeat playthrough for fun and I didn't really die at all and had enough geo for pretty much everything even 2 of the Unbreakable charms Strength and Heart no problem
yeah when i played 2nd time i am not dying much and i dont need to grind much geo at all.Its just on first playthrough i was too noob to play games so due to many deaths.I grind a lot
yeah this happened for me in many games.git guuuuuuud is the only way to overcome this xD.
Logically playing the game for longer and improving ones skill does make it easier and more fun
Hahah why is Graig 'Old Mate' now... that's so Australian of him haha
But yeah I hope you're able to acquire map markers early to mark backtracking points ... something I forgot to do in my first playthrough
Its been a bit since ive been here, any new theories on SS?
Depends since you've been here I think, but likely not?
a couple months ago was the last time
Likely not then - though I'm fairly out of the loop myself
It looks pretty cool yeah, I wonder if it's going to be fairly light-hearted in lore like Dead-Cells or if it's going to be heavy like HK
holy fucking shit
then on the other end you have people complaining about the heavier emphasis on lore in Doom Eternal cuz it kills the pacing but then again the fault of that one is that it relies more on cutscenes and the main draw of the game is continuous demon murder
SS should have a perma marker of Hornet's head on the map
but nobody believed me
i wouldnt mind a permanent compass
Same
my favorite part of hk was the bosses
some would argue that it makes you learn the map more but i think the fog of war "reveal only when you sit on the bench" system is already good enough for that
My favourite part of HK was exploration and then combat, Kind of glad there isn't too much platforming since that's not something I like too much of an emphasis on
yeah
i think there still gonna be major platforming additions, just that they fleshed out and prioritized the combat first, but yeah
the first time entering kingdoms edge was incredible
Yeah
Kingdom's edge is my favourite area
The music is boppin and I like the way it looks
Hollow Knight Soundtrack - "Kingdom's Edge" by Christopher Larkin
I really love how its so different from the rest of the game

You go from this dead raining city into a wasteland at the edge of the world. Definitely in my top 5 favorite areas in games
It's my favourite period
My next favourite area is probably Hive but if that doesn't count since it's in Kingdoms edge then next would be Crystal peak then City of tears
Bardoon my favourite flavour lore character
Also, whole "Wyrm carcass" thing is pretty cool too. Very poetic.
Not to mention that our beloved pal Markoth is there)))
Btw, what is your SS area of choice, based on what we've seen so far?
Ancient sea (Barnacle area) or Coral forest
Agreed. Barnacle area is the best in my opinion too. Also, the area with roots from above is magestic af.
ye
i want my light stealth elements
were talking about guards that cant see farther than 3 meters
intricate backstab animations where the rest just waits for you to finish the animation before attacking you
The barnacle area is already the best one simply because Lomm is there
...Dark souls?
yes
glad we agree
i was agreeing on the edark souls comparison but fair too
was gonna say while the corals looks good, im more into that industrial zones 👀
i want my silk powered mechs and machines
Oh yeah im more into natural zones, like the moss area, coral forest, greenpath, queens gardens etc
i like them too
but the big city in silksong looks great aswell
just that the implication of mechanisms in the game and the previews is making me keen on how technologically advance it is vs Hallownest which is dead, tho i prefer a balance between the two just for variety sake vs "everything is this grey mechanical city yada yada"
I’m just thinking about all the areas we haven’t even seen a glimpse of yet, imagine the potential
Yeah it will be way more mechanical & detailed and all, and we have so many tools which are all really different unlike hollow knights charms
Like take for example the buzzsaw ability
A long line of destruction
And i absolutely love it 
A Buzzshaw
Yes!

username does not check out
none tbh
same
Is there any good dialogues revealed for silksong game in edge magazine? i want to put 1 for my steam profile
do they gonna release game all of a sudden without any pre-order or atleast making an announcement?
I wish there was something to play for me this year until elden ring and silksong comes
Shadowdrop is always an option
yeah its not probable at all
Hungry Knight?
What about Hungry Knight
Leth said it
When?
i personally wont count gamejam games as actual game releases
And the Booty Grato Franchise
booty grotto is only william, not teamcherry
fuck
whos joe
Joe Balls

We've peaked
.
Well I don't think leth is serious
how many places do silksong going to have ? how many places have we seen in silksong until now?
3 seen? wtf edge magazine have too many locations right?
No one bought that tho
I wonder if silksong will be a continuation of the hk lore or a completely different world
i cant believe the crowsworn KS is actually on track to $1M cad. if we keep consistently getting $30K+ CAD then it will reach it, im so excited
what do u like . different new lore or expansion kinda lore?
thats why yall should back that shit
I'd like if it was an expansion but a different new lore might be really fun too
how many we have seen from these?
Barnacle area
i havent see those many 😮 OMG
Well silksong isn't real so we dont need to worry about the areas
haha
Cleveland ohio
ok
Is canon
don’t forget hallownest
