i thought we were playing monopoly?

#

no

signal crag
#

isn't around december the time when blogposts almost always happened?
the only time it didn't was when the EDGE article was out.

#

also, very random rant, but one thing i don't like of the new version of the site, is that there's no an easy way to select a page of their blog

serene chasm
#

I agree. the fuck is offset=3924983-04280349

#

Go to a page of their blog, and check the site’s address

#

Before the update, you could change the page’s number easily

serene chasm
#

Dont care. The game is about exploring and discovering new things (at least it is for me) and a boss rush is none of those things.

signal crag
#

Mostly don’t care. A way to refight them similar to the HoG would still be nice tho.

marsh ibex
#

who said there won’t be a boss rush?

serene chasm
#

Ari told mossbag back when he met them at paxaus

marsh ibex
#

Didn’t ari just say they hoped the fans didn’t want one

serene chasm
#

he hopes we arent looking forward to one. which kinda implies that they dont have one planned. Granted that was 2 years ago so things could have changed

signal crag
#

Yeah, something like that

manic zenith
#

Ari said "not expecting another boss rush area"

mortal grove
#

enemy rush instead painterunicorngogogogogo

serene chasm
#

Pantheon of Pharloom is just fighting every basic enemy one at a time without any save points

spark pine
#

Maybe not a boss rush “area” per say but just an option on the start up screen?

#

Kinda like shovel Knight or something

serene chasm
#

I dont think TC would add something that cant be explained lorewise

signal crag
#

So it’s all or nothing, huh?

spark pine
#

I just don’t really see another way they could realistically implement one

cerulean sable
#

something something

#

the world first before the players convenience right?

spark pine
#

Cause I don’t think dream nailing stuff is gonna be in the game

cerulean sable
#

im basically quoting what they said iirc

marsh ibex
#

Man people overestimate what they can do without dream nail

spark pine
#

I just meant the god home can’t be a thing

#

Maybe some wacky potion or something can make hornet trip she’s fighting the bosses again idk

marsh ibex
#

because godhome is the only way that boss rush can be added to a hk game

spark pine
#

Yeah so wats ur point

mortal grove
#

i shall bring this up again because its cool

cursive jetty
#

Honestly I think it would be a waste of time to do another boss rush mode, when they can use that time to make the game better overall or make Silksoul mode more interesting

signal crag
#

question is:
how do you contextualize a "boss refight arena" within the game's world?

spark pine
#

The potion thing

#

I don’t care if it’s kinda dumb it works

#

On some level

#

Plus we’ve seen what looks like an alchemist of some kind so honestly it’s not completely off the table

cursive jetty
#

Depends, if the boss is a good fighter, they would need a room to fight people that passed through the enemies to get there

signal crag
#

those are such basic gameplay concept tho

cursive jetty
#

Basically It can give the boss an advantage too, or it's just a respect thing

spark pine
#

I like it

spark pine
signal crag
#

it's neat when games try to give context to the act of the MC of "respawning" and making their deaths somehow "canon", but it's definitely not a requirement at all

cursive jetty
#

Respawning and boss arenas are basic concepts that support the gameplay so not explaining them is fine, but a boss rush mode is optional but it directly changes the gameplay (and story) so having a lore explanation can be crucial to it not feeling "video gamey"

signal crag
#

if you really want to, then sure

#

for other games, it can really just be a fun pretend arena

#

thing is: can Bugs access the dream world by just sleeping?
isn't the Dream Nail kind of a requirement?

#

damn, that's some lucid dreaming right there then

cursive jetty
#

I don't think TC would use such a simple excuse for a boss rush mode

olive bobcat
#

Puppets

signal crag
#

in theory, you have to lucid dreaming to have such a control of yourself (or Hornet herself, in this case), during a dream, especially against fighting a strong enemy

olive bobcat
signal crag
#

Ohhhh, yeah that OC

marsh ibex
cunning geode
#

Jokespeare

signal crag
#

...she still seems unsure of the situation, i think Grimm was already more aware of what was happening

marsh ibex
#

Also needing an item that there is only one of to access a realm between dreams and waking is stinky

signal crag
cursive jetty
#

Also I just realized that grandhunts might make the concept of a boss rush mode even more complicated for TC, maybe that's why Ari said that he hopes we are not expecting onegrubthink

livid flax
#

if memory serves, technically sleeping does take you to the dream world but in the same way you might not realize you're dreaming as it happens you're not really able to explore it the way the knight is able to with the dream nail

signal crag
#

oh, that seems reasonable

olive bobcat
marsh ibex
#

Ferb, I know what we’re gonna do today

livid flax
#

i'd love a boss rush mode of some kind, i'm not sure how it'd be contextualized in the lore but i don't really care, we have very little idea what's going on in pharloom at the moment and there could easily be any number of ways of explaining it that we don't even know about

#

that being said, if it doesn't happen i'm not gonna lose sleep over it

olive bobcat
#

I'm gonna share my final boss idea again

marsh ibex
#

no

#

Lettuce people don’t get the right to share ideas

olive bobcat
#

A council of 5-6 Caste members, each one being based around a different type of Caste enemy
You fight them in groups of 2-3 like the Mantis Lords, until you beat each one once or twice (I haven't thought on that part as much)

signal crag
#

could the final boss being designed around the idea of an orchestra?

livid flax
#

someone will make a boss rush mod if there isn't one in the base game

cursive jetty
#

Yeah, maybe the ants have a Colosseum and Carmelita is the final boss there

olive bobcat
livid flax
#

i could see them making a more in-depth coliseum of fools style challenge, i wasn't particularly passionate about the coliseum in the base game since there was very little incentive to replay it after you got the rewards

marsh ibex
#

aside from unbreakable grinding

cursive jetty
#

Maybe it's hidden in the early area and you can reach it after a certain movement upgrade, kinda like the howling cliffs

cerulean sable
#

yeah and when you sleep your spirit leaves your body but if you start lucid dream your basically allowing demons to take it :)

marsh ibex
#

I’ve never lucid dreamed before

olive bobcat
#

Final boss concept

livid flax
#

it's a metroidvania, it's kind of a given there's parts of early areas you can't access at first

marsh ibex
#

There was this one time where I was like

#

“Yo what the fuck, this isn’t how it should work” and I just woke up

pallid flare
#

honet

signal crag
#

smol

shy stirrup
livid flax
#

yeah that's fair

shy stirrup
#

Even if it's just a option in the menu I would be fine with that

olive bobcat
#

I do have an idea of a boss rush area

#

A puppetmaster who remakes bosses as puppets, and remakes their arenas as well (just for flair)

#

And everything could have a kind of wood style to it

shy stirrup
#

That would be dope

heady iron
#

me too, it has a bunch of bronze gilding and gray pillars and is the home to a bunch of gods

livid flax
#

i'd love that but yeah, it'd take even more work than godmaster

marsh ibex
#

not necessarily

#

just recolor them all

olive bobcat
livid flax
#

SS has more enemies than HK

olive bobcat
#

Actually I forgot a key detail

signal crag
#

i mean....they already working a lot for Silksong in general, the issue being "it would be a lot of work" doesn't mean much

livid flax
#

it's kind of a given it'll have more bosses

olive bobcat
#

i forgor the strings

formal geyser
#

idk i think they just havnet showed as many of them

signal crag
livid flax
shy stirrup
#

Even base hollow night head around 30 bosses so that's what I'm expecting

signal crag
#

no, but it's still a likely possibility

livid flax
#

it's not a guarantee, obviously, but it's definitely an educated guess to say the boss count likely exceeds HK

shy stirrup
#

At least base hk

signal crag
#

hey, as long all bosses are of above average quality at least, that sound good for me

livid flax
#

more enemies also just implies a larger world, and assuming the boss density is comparable to HK it'd be weird if it had noticeably less bosses overall

#

again, not a guarantee, both on the larger world front and on the idea of there being more bosses, but it'd make sense

signal crag
#

it's likely to be the case
bigger world, more content, possibly even more bosses

marsh ibex
#

Wasn’t that like 5 or 6

#

Fuck

livid flax
#

i'm not even convinced silver crab boy is a boss

signal crag
#

could be more like a mini boss actually, or something you are meant to escape from

livid flax
#

i don't think they specifically said they were all bosses

signal crag
#

Sharpe is definitely a boss, but the two other minions are a bit unclear

livid flax
#

it doesn't say any of them other than sharpe are bosses

cedar trench
#

crab boy...????

signal crag
#

would still be neat to see them fighting all together at once, but i wonder how many of these "tag teams" boss fights TC is actually considering doing

livid flax
#

the blogpost says sharpe and his companions will be hunting hornet throughout her journey

signal crag
cedar trench

#

Jimbo

cedar trench
#

true

signal crag
#

Bell Beast

olive bobcat
marsh ibex
#

They’re called jimbo

signal crag
#

anyway....i'm still hyped of the idea of multiple bosses at once, but each having a different moveset and playstyle
mantis lords/Sisters of battle are incredible boss fights, but i'm still interested what they can do with this different concept

livid flax
#

sisters of battle is one of my favorite boss fights period, if any of these other fights can capture that frantic energy with perhaps some more diverse movesets i'll be satisfied

signal crag
#

not sure why "assassins" is a proof of that, that's just what they do

livid flax
#

assassin does not imply boss, just that they're being sent to kill somebody

livid flax
#

again, sharpe is a boss, we know that, but i wouldn't be shocked if the other steel enemies are just enemies

signal crag
#

they could be considered "unique enemies" at best maybe

formal geyser
#

if silksong doesn have ants i will commit die

livid flax
#

because they're part of the same group/organization?

signal crag
jovial sand
signal crag
#

Minibosses then, if you prefer

#

the whole "miniboss or boss" topic it's still a bit undefined for Hollow Knight, i'll give you that

livid flax
#

all we've seen the flying crab thing do is fire a laser and have some minions follow it around

#

don't think there's enough to infer that it has a more diverse moveset

#

we don't know enough yet, it could just be a recurring regular enemy

#

given that the steel assassins are pretty unique at least from a story perspective it actually does make sense to single them out

#

especially as the purpose was to showcase sharpe, who they're connected to

trim isle
#

does anyone know when silksong is releasing?

It really is good. Ari's art is top notch

You see, silksong is hornet, and thats void in a silksong trailer, so therefore hornet is void

i have 90 problems and silksong coming out would solve only one of them which is no silksong but its still good because its one problem less

Hornet has been eating too many gruzzers and needs to run through pharloom to exercise

gruzzer nuggets

nimble pebble
#

Probably just Gruzzers

dry valley
#

What if there is a Silksong McDonald’s Meal

olive bobcat
dry valley
#

And there is Gruzzer sauce

languid linden
#

Gruzzer milk, ice cream, and cheese is a plausible thing so...

dry valley
#

Gruzzers don’t make milk

#

Where did you get this information

languid linden
#

@vivid belfry

vivid belfry
#

now you fucked up

languid linden
#

Sorry for the ping but I gtg

dry valley
vivid belfry
#

You come into my house? And you besmirch my religion? Shameful.

nimble pebble
vivid belfry
#

Gruzzers don't just make milk, Gruzzers ARE the milk that sustains our mental health

nimble pebble
#

Gruzzer milk theory is base in facts

dry valley
#

you know now that you mention it I do recall seeing a video about bug milk

nimble pebble
vivid belfry
#

Gruzzers have uncharacteristically mammalian traits in that they give live birth and have endoskeletons

dry valley
#

milk proof

vivid belfry
#

additionally, the liquid contained in the barrels throughout crossroads and other storage rooms is unique to anything else in the game. It doesn't have the same physics properties as water or mantis blood

dry valley
#

I am a believer

vivid belfry
#

what could it possibly be? Gruzzer Milk.

dry valley
#

So you’re essentially just fighting a bunch of loose flying cows in the crossroads

vivid belfry
#

yeah Gruzzers do seem analogous to cows

#

they seem to be bred as meat animals based on their position in the pleasure house

dry valley
#

True

nimble pebble
#

Does that make Gruzzers Veal and Gruz mother Beef

dry valley
#

Yes

vivid belfry
#

yes

nimble pebble
#

What an insightful connection

dry valley
#

I wonder if hornet will be able eat some real bug food in SS to heal instead of shooting up lifeblood

nimble pebble
#

Also there's boofly meat in the pleasure house

#

Hornet as a spider is at minimum an onmivore thanks to her being part wyrm but most certainly eats meat like a carnivore

dry valley
#

There does exist a vegetarian spider so true

vivid belfry
nimble pebble
#

It's hanging, like a meat locker

vivid belfry
#

those are gruzzers though

nimble pebble
#

Nah there's some boofly's

The big one in the center is a boofly

hi

vivid belfry
mortal grove
#

looks too small to be a boofly

nimble pebble
silver oak
#

Gruzzers are a lot smaller, and they don't have the beefy tail

nimble pebble
#

^

silver oak
#

What brought up gruzzer discussion anyway

vivid belfry
#

gruz mother isn't smaller

#

all the gruzzer enemies are babies

mortal grove
#

and gruzzers are too small so i dont know what that thing is

silver oak
#

That's one specific gruzzer
Who we killed already

vivid belfry
#

I don't think it's fair to assume that Gruz mother is the only adult the species has ever seen zote

nimble pebble
#

there's gruz mothers in Colosseum

mortal grove
#

where are the gruz fathers thonk

atomic bloom
#

the correct term for plural is gruzzes mother

#

like airpods pro

vivid belfry
#

but yeah, with the coloration, the number of stripes, and the number of wings, it seems to match up much more closely with gruzzers than booflies

silver oak
#

the gruzwifes all left them and went to hallownest

vivid belfry
#

plus the general bodyshape and size

silver oak
#

do you have a pic of a gruzzer

#

specifcally the infected kind

vivid belfry
#

also it has an endoskeleton, which booflies might not have but gruzzers definitely do

#

why infected specifically

gaunt fox
#

Any new ss speculation

silver oak
#

oh it does have the tail

silver oak
nimble pebble
#

The small ones are gruzzers and the big one is a boofly and that's what I'm sticking to

vivid belfry
#

okay but like, we've established that gruzzers come in more than one size

reef scarab
silver oak
#

It honestly does feel like the booflys and gruzzers are related

silver oak
#

Or at least were based off the same model

nimble pebble

Booflys are literally the most useless enemy in the game, it's not like they put much thought into them

Also the nooses from the forest also creep me out.

Seal the deal was fun I get really disoriented in ship shape though

Nyakuza Metro is fun because there's plenty to explore lots of world building, stickers, food, a Yakuza reference

and much more

They worked on "Here Comes Niko!" which came out a week and a half ago

But they were more the publisher than a developer

They did help on coding I recall though

I want to know what their next game is though

#

@serene chasm

That game looks really cute

nimble pebble

idk if it's my vibe though

#

Maybe if it comes to Switch I'll buy it when I have cash

serene chasm

And yeah. Same. We need another player in the 3d platformer space other than nintendo

serene chasm

I guess Odyssey isnt really in the vain of 3d platformers like Banjo.

It would depend if you consider Odyssey a platofmer

Feels more like an Adventure RPG with a semi focus on platforming

You lot need to stop manhandling your joycons (But I agree it's a problem they should fix)

I don't understand how you people do this

I’m not spending 80 bucks every time my controllers start acting up like no

nimble pebble

They fix them for free though

reef scarab

I bought them before the free fixes

nimble pebble

I see

reef scarab
#

and like, if they’re gonna do that why can’t they just improve the joycons so they dont have to do that

#

They’re releasing a new model and it doesn’t even fix it

nimble pebble

Most of the people I hear who have drift play Smash and abuse their analog stick zote

Hopefully the next switch iteration fixes that, otherwise people are gonna flip their shit

nimble pebble
#

I've met people who've drifted Pro-Controllers but tbf the only way you can drift a Pro-controller is by continually dropping it or smashing it so you severely rattle the insides basically controller throwers and clumsy people but tbh you'd have to do it a lot since I've dropped mine a few times and it's fine so some people are just not very careful at all
