ew br*tish

[burnt topaz]

£££

[nimble pebble]

I know but it sounds funny to say it like that

[balmy carbon]

im British

[tall hinge]

i thought your pronouns were shit/poop tho

[nimble pebble]

indeed

[warm bone]

this pack of 25 clean nfc chips costs less than the amibo you're talking about https://www.amazon.com/THONSEN-NTAG215-Compatible-Enabled-Devices/dp/B07N38MMTT/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=NFC+Chip&qid=1629239572&sr=8-5

[tribal merlin]

oi knobhead

[reef scarab]

Oh I bought amiibo cards for Splatoon lol

[pallid flare]

see, everyone agrees with me

[shy stirrup]

the only amiibo i have an issue with is the one for samus returns and the twilight princess hd one

[balmy carbon]

ayo

[pallid flare]

not available

[shy stirrup]

the skyward sword one is quite literally useless since bird statues are literally everywhere

[nimble pebble]

I don't have any amiibos since I could use that money to buy more games

[shy stirrup]

i say literally too much

[warm bone]

what do you mean, its available for me

[shy stirrup]

ive never bought an amiibo either

[burnt topaz]

my sister got some of these for animal crossing, theyre good but i would like mini models with them

[worldly quarry]

I feel like Nintendo is just forcing amibos on some things now, like why did Skyward Sword HD need one?

[balmy carbon]

that's wise

[reef scarab]

If you’re gonna release a ten year old game for more than it was when it came out at least add new stuff

[warm bone]

is it because of your cringe region

[pallid flare]

rude

[tall hinge]

its not in stock for me either

[shy stirrup]

it doesnt need one. the functionality of the amiibo is basically useless

[burnt topaz]

me neither

[nimble pebble]

I like the Skyward sword port because it adds button controls option and trims down on the bullshit in the wii version which makes it automatically better

[warm bone]

what it shows me

[worldly quarry]

But the game is 60 dollars...just put it in the base game

[shy stirrup]

bro i thought fi was annoying but she's literally one of my favourite zelda characters cus she barely ever bothers you

[warm bone]

hehe

[pallid flare]

you probably can't speak german

[balmy carbon]

why get a £40 amiibo when u can buy 5 games tho?

[nimble pebble]

Fi is annoying, also she was a lot more annoying in the wii version

[warm bone]

red letters are universal

[shy stirrup]

she was only annoying near the end of the game

[burnt topaz]

Are you flexing your ability to speak german?

[pallid flare]

yeah

[shy stirrup]

i was genuinely heartbroken when she goes to rest.

[nimble pebble]

Yeah because they fixed the problem in the port

[burnt topaz]

understandable

[pallid flare]

not even being subtle here, amina

[burnt topaz]

well ive been dumber in the past

[pallid flare]

it's fine it's fine

[shy stirrup]

fun fact: skyward sword wii was the first game i ever played. i was six so i never got past faron woods tho

[tribal schooner]

so you are what 12?

[pallid flare]

exposed

[tribal schooner]

lol

[shy stirrup]

skyward sword came out in 2011

[pallid flare]

I remember never getting through the tutorial of some games

[tribal schooner]

so you are 10?

[nimble pebble]

[silver oak]

Ummmm no, he’s actually 12 and a half

[shy stirrup]

i was six when skyward sword came out

[shy stirrup]

time to get banned for a second time

[twin inlet]

[warm bone]

[nimble pebble]

I'm probably older than you

[tribal schooner]

maybe just a little

[tall hinge]

youre 19 pillow get off your high horse

[shy stirrup]

[nimble pebble]

Makes me older than half the kiddos here

[twin inlet]

[silver oak]

I’m a kiddo

[twin inlet]

Boomer Time

[nimble pebble]

Also I wasn't on one I was just saying I was probably older than GEF

[pallid flare]

we're all kiddos

[silver oak]

Happy early birthday

[burnt topaz]

almost happy birthday

[tribal schooner]

thanks guys

[twin inlet]

mf put slow mode on, can't have shit iin ss-discussion

[nimble pebble]

I get to drink

tbh most of it tastes terrible I only drink specific types

[pallid flare]

i can drink too mate

[silver oak]

Illegal!

[burnt topaz]

So do I at home

[pallid flare]

alcohol laws are lax here

[nimble pebble]

Always has been

[tribal merlin]

drinking doesn't make you an adult
buying your own dishwasher does

[silver oak]

Oh wait I’m American

[tall hinge]

16 ye?

[pallid flare]

less

[nimble pebble]

Nah having your bed in the middle of the room and not against a wall

[tall hinge]

ah ok 16 is austria close enough

[burnt topaz]

you do be drinking a bunch over there

[tribal schooner]

i dont even bother drinking. consumpiton of things that decrease your awareness is way overrated

[tall hinge]

pretty much the same thing tbh

[twin inlet]

Coffee is just the best

[pallid flare]

I can drink beer if my parents allow it

[silver oak]

This explains a lot ||/s||

[tribal schooner]

pyro do you live in Australia?

[nimble pebble]

Only getting wasted is overrated, and I drink for the taste not the alcohol

[nimble pebble]

Imagine needing parental permission

[silver oak]

I drink for oh wait I’m American

[pallid flare]

shut up

[twin inlet]

Permission for beer tf?

[nimble pebble]

[twin inlet]

[pallid flare]

if I wait half a year then I don't need parental permission

[twin inlet]

Good for you

You go drink those beers

[nimble pebble]

[pallid flare]

i hate alcohol

[tribal schooner]

i have yet to try achohol i like

[pallid flare]

i got to taste a little bit of wine and I hated it

[silver oak]

Apparently I drank like half a beer my dad left out when I was 3

[nimble pebble]

American beer tastes like piss German and Russian beer is better but beer isn't my favourite I like Rum and Vodka so far but I'm still experimenting

[nimble pebble]

That's fine some people just don't like it

[warm bone]

imagine drinking poison

[twin inlet]

Are you russian?

[nimble pebble]

No

[nimble pebble]

It's not

[pallid flare]

it's definitely not good for you

[silver oak]

Especially in large amounts

[twin inlet]

Wine is good for your health

[nimble pebble]

That's like saying water is poison because excessive consumption drowns you

[tribal merlin]

nothing is good for you in large amounts, you can die from drinking water

[nimble pebble]

Everything is bad for you in large amounts

[tall hinge]

i dont think you know what alcohol is lol

[warm bone]

rat poison is only bad for you in large amounts

[silver oak]

Drink pure ethanol to be instantly cool

[pallid flare]

i think i have some brb

[nimble pebble]

@tribal merlin shut it cheesoid I talked about water first

[silver oak]

||/s||

[nimble pebble]

indeed it is, so is air

[warm bone]

so is meth

[pallid flare]

ethanol tasted disgusting

[burnt topaz]

but youre cool

[tribal schooner]

the thing in wine that is good for you is also found in regular grapes so is it really good for you?

[pallid flare]

atleast I'm cooler than you

[twin inlet]

yes

[burnt topaz]

if only i had some ethanol on me right now

[nimble pebble]

I don't really get why comparing things that kill you in smaller doses denotes that anything could kill you with a large enough dose

[silver oak]

Jump in a freezer to be instantly cool

[warm bone]

thats what poison is

[pallid flare]

my freezer isn't big enough

[nimble pebble]

That's what everything is

[warm bone]

you're argument makes no sense

[pallid flare]

too bad, can't join the cool club

[tribal schooner]

tho to be honest achohol only harms the body. can you continure living if you drink it of course but it really only damages the body vs water which makes up 70-80% of the body

[nimble pebble]

You can die to caffeine, yet we don't consider it poison

[silver oak]

You obviously aren’t cool

[pallid flare]

after everything i did

[warm bone]

I've seen the video, its virtually impossible

[burnt topaz]

Too much off topic in #sk-discussion cant kill anyone

[twin inlet]

Why tf is Joker talking about why alcohol is bad for your health

[silver oak]

I beg to differ

[warm bone]

society

[nimble pebble]

It does, yours makes no sense trying to say something can kill you in excessive amounts is a fruitless argument because that applies to everything

[twin inlet]

You can have a hearthattack because of it

[warm bone]

your point is that nothing can be a poison because everything can kill you in large doses

[nimble pebble]

We all die of no Silksong

[pallid flare]

will hornet drink beer in silksong

[nimble pebble]

My point is that it's not poison because it can

[twin inlet]

I want to commit large amounts of caffeine because no ss

[tribal schooner]

why if there is still a healthier option and wine still has all the drawbacks that alcohol has. alcohol is purely for celebration by damaging the body to expieriance the buzz that damage creates

[pallid flare]

w- why?

[warm bone]

it is medically a poison, like most drugs

[silver oak]

There is a pub

[pallid flare]

i hope she drinks

and then gameplay becomes harder

[silver oak]

Drunk debuff

[pallid flare]

all in the name to teach the youth

[nimble pebble]

Saying something is a poison when it's only detrimental in large doses is like saying water is poison because if you drink too much it'll kill you

[burnt topaz]

the orange jug is alcohol

[warm bone]

you said did this, still makes as little sense as before

[nimble pebble]

The point is your point makes no sense considering you can apply that logic to most things we intake

[silver oak]

And then when it wears off the screen fades to black and in boss title card letters it says “don’t do drugs kids”

[nimble pebble]

it makes perfect sense

Not my fault if you don't get it

[tall hinge]

@nimble pebble alcohol is a poison to the human body, although a very very light poison that only affects our bodies after continous consumption. it hurts the heart and the liver, obviously everything in large consumption can cause damage and be called a "poison" but alcohol is a more consistent example? (im not sure how to phrase this)

[warm bone]

my mans does not know what a poison is

[tall hinge]

correct me if im wrong im not an expert in this

[tribal schooner]

poison in personal definition is any substance that does exclusivly damage to your body instead of benefiting it because it is true that too much of anything can be harmful but some things are only harmful to your body making them specifically poisonous. it does feel nice to some people tho. and for the record you are correct that caffiene, coffee, tea. and pretty much all soda or carbonated drinks are also poison technically

[orchid river]

Help

[burnt topaz]

whats wrong

[orchid river]

Help

[tall hinge]

[warm bone]

#hk-help

[orchid river]

: )

[nimble pebble]

That's really my point most things are technically poison so it doesn't matter

There is no escape

[tall hinge]

:) do this to remove the emoji or theres a setting to turn it automatically off

[tribal schooner]

i agree, people can make their own choices and pretty much all of us have our own guilty pleasures.

[twin inlet]

Say what you want, Alcohol bad / Coffee good

[tall hinge]

coffee also bad

[warm bone]

I believe that only in primates is ethanol able to be processed, in other animals it is still poison, but much more potent

[twin inlet]

I will shaw you

[tribal schooner]

coffee also bad. but apparently also delicious

[nimble pebble]

Water gang

[warm bone]

naw it nasty

[nimble pebble]

Coffee nasty

[twin inlet]

Is it the coffee that's bad or caffeine

[charred pulsar]

Hydro homies?

[twin inlet]

You all are bunch of brits

[tribal schooner]

i drink pretty much only water. ocasionally so soda or juice

[nimble pebble]

Hydro Homie

[nimble pebble]

Same

[burnt topaz]

yes, your point 🇬🇧

[warm bone]

you have Stockholm syndrome for coffee

[pallid flare]

like if you enjoy water

[twin inlet]

What does it do to hurt me?

[warm bone]

its gross

[twin inlet]

If anything, water is the one that causes Stockholm syndrome, if you dont drink it you will die

[nimble pebble]

I don't really Drink Alcohol often cause most of it is nasty an mostly drink ones with a slight health benefit but even then, I think I drink once or twice a year if not every few years

[tribal schooner]

coffee aside from caffiene does have substances that cause damage to your nervous system over time. decreasing funtionality of your nerves and processes of central nervous system. plus its addictive

tea as well

[nimble pebble]

isn't addictiveness because of Caffeine

[twin inlet]

It's is delicious and goes nice with a lot of things

[warm bone]

makes you dependent on it in order to function correctly

[tribal schooner]

not exclusivly

[burnt topaz]

no

[tribal schooner]

so i have heard. i honeslty dont like it much

[tall hinge]

caffeine, taking too much consistently can lead to jitterness, anxiety, heart palpitations, panic attacks, and disrupted sleep

[marsh ibex]

you live your like Kara

[tribal schooner]

unfortunately yes. but like we said we all have our guilty pleasures dont stress it unless you feel the need to make the change

[nimble pebble]

tbh minor amounts of Alcohol is just very sugary water to your kidneys at least that's how the Organ interprets it

[tribal schooner]

yes that is our point for sure

[twin inlet]

Sure, that's caffeine for you but I never heard about decaff being bad for your health, unless you are a medical student or a doctor that has knowledge outside of the internet, I dont think your argument is valid about coffee itself being bad for your health

[warm bone]

decaf has caffeine still

[twin inlet]

I'm talking about the coffee part, not caffeine part

[tall hinge]

i never said coffee was bad? i literally replied to your comment saying caffeine was bad and not coffee necessarily

[twin inlet]

this

replied to wrong person, sorry

[nimble pebble]

My Grandfather is pickled, he drank and smoked for 65+ years and the only reason his heart is working (even if only at 15%) is because of the amount of nicotine he puts in his system from all the smoking he does this man dug himself a grave and that hole is keeping him alive

[tall hinge]

im so confused

[tribal schooner]

well i am premed but its not common info cause people to get mad

[languid linden]

Hornet will be suffering from a crippling lifeblood addiction in silksong confirmed?

[twin inlet]

Maybe you are right and it is bad for my health but I will still take it. It makes me happy, it lets me be productive and doesnt cost much financially as long as I dont consume too much.

[nimble pebble]

I feel the thing to keep in mind is while most of these things aren't good for you and could be called "poison" in minor doses it's not really all that harmful since 90% of what we eat is like that anyway but our bodies are adapte to handle it if it's minor, like ffs we eat things like Mint an cocoa and this is a death sentence to 98% of animals

[tall hinge]

of course! were not trying to make you stop were just explaining why its bad for you. literally almost everyone in a first world country takes it daily and it doesnt bother them so it shouldnt bother you

[pallid flare]

all in the name of teaching the youth, of course

[twin inlet]

And if any of you visit me one day, be sure that I will treat you to a nice cup of coffee

[nimble pebble]

You know a good way to make someone feel bad about consuming something that's not great but at the same time not a detriment is to call it poison

[pallid flare]

what kind of coffee

[twin inlet]

Any kind you like

[tall hinge]

damn thats a tall order

[pallid flare]

[warm bone]

are you still on about this?

[coarse leaf]

how long were they discussing this for

[nimble radish]

wtf the moon can't come out in the day

[languid linden]

The coffee:

[winged skiff]

Silk Song is a myth

[coarse leaf]

is that background from omori

[tall hinge]

#sk-discussion message

[rapid topaz]

I tend to assume that everyone have addictions in one way or another. And that's not a terrible thing as long as you know the possible consequences, then control yourself reasonnably

[coarse leaf]

ok got it

forget about the poison talk, let's talk about paralysis

[nimble pebble]

Not really just making a comment but by all means continue being mean

[languid linden]

No it's the sky, unless the background from omori is the sky (idk I haven't played it)

[coarse leaf]

or burn
or confusion
or sleep
or freezing

[nimble pebble]

Sky moment

[nimble pebble]

Agreed

[coarse leaf]

[twin inlet]

You can bet your ass that I will be addicted to Silksong when it comes out...eventually

[coarse leaf]

[burnt topaz]

silksong will be finished the week i get my hands on it

[nimble pebble]

I have an addiction to doing your mom

[twin inlet]

Yup

[rapid topaz]

I'm addicted to video games and I was ashamed to say it some years ago

[twin inlet]

Nooo, not the wisp of the wills

[burnt topaz]

why do the wills have wisps?

[tall hinge]

why not?

[burnt topaz]

darn i guess

[twin inlet]

Dont spoil it, I wanna learn myself

[analog lily]

Wait how can I do the WKroll without nitro?

[burnt topaz]

[pallid flare]

gosh darnit

[tall hinge]

because its a reaction

[languid linden]

You can't

[twin inlet]

[nimble pebble]

I have too much ADHD to be addicted I tend to swap between reading playing and watching and then other stuff too

[warm bone]

you can't

[languid linden]

Oh the reaction

[pallid flare]

[analog lily]

If someone reacts with WKroll i can for some reason

[tall hinge]

yes its how reactions work

[twin inlet]

This is just bullying at this point

[warm bone]

small

[twin inlet]

Smol

[tall hinge]

budgest wkroll

[nimble pebble]

[tribal schooner]

For sure man, now worries we all have our things so don’t worry about it unless you want to make the change

[burnt topaz]

here, to your hearts content

[pallid flare]

i am involved in some heavy drama and am glad that this channel is alive

[tall hinge]

what drama

[pallid flare]

an absolute mess

[twin inlet]

Let us roll into your drama

[nimble pebble]

Ched

[rapid topaz]

Oh yeah huh... reading books.. yeah (I've legit fully read like 5 or 6 books in my life)

[languid linden]

Meanwhile I just borrowed 3 400 page books from the library

[tall hinge]

ma man

[pallid flare]

that's a lot of pages

[rapid topaz]

I can do the playing and watching tho no probs

[nimble pebble]

[twin inlet]

Why, Library Genesis exists

[nimble pebble]

Epic reader moment

[languid linden]

I don't know what that is

[twin inlet]

You can search a book on amazon or ebay and most probably find the pdf of that book on that site

[languid linden]

I like physical books more than ebooks tbh

[nimble pebble]

^

[twin inlet]

I too but when you need to read a lot of them, it becomes a requirement

[nimble pebble]

I only read my manga digital because owning all of them would be expensive, but I read my books physical

[twin inlet]

I mostly use it for CS Documents

[rapid topaz]

physicals books are great. Doesn't need your eyes to be exposed on a screen permanently

[languid linden]

I don't need to read these, I'm doing it for fun

[nimble pebble]

Has that book feel too

[nimble pebble]

As one should

[languid linden]

Would be nice if my school assigned the Thrawn trilogy for required reading though

[nimble pebble]

Nah required reading ruins the experience

[worldly quarry]

While digital books are more convenient I feel like physicals will always be superior

[twin inlet]

I like the physical books more too, I read a lot when I was travelling on train to my school everyday. But like I said, I wont spend huge amounts of money for every CS Document

[languid linden]

How about optional reading except they hold a gun to your head when you're not reading it

[nimble pebble]

[tall hinge]

i have a kindle which is a fusion monstrosity

[twin inlet]

Ori dev is so jealous over HK

[nimble pebble]

Ori is not my style so I shan't play

[twin inlet]

But for the first time , this is something good

[nimble pebble]

He respects the success of TC but yeah he jelly

[tall hinge]

i played ori WotW completed it on a weekend it was good i would say 7.5/10

[twin inlet]

He bitchs about it on forums and stuff but he also tries to one up HK, which is good for the community

[rapid topaz]

I like both so I don't mind

[twin inlet]

Same

[shy stirrup]

I played the first one and loved it but it fails as a metroidvania

[nimble pebble]

tbf one upping your competition is pretty typical of a competitor to do an he acknowledges that he's bitching so idrc

[nimble pebble]

It's just got a metroidvania skeleton barely sretched on

Tbh I'm not a pure platformer type of guy so it doesn't appeal to me

[rapid topaz]

Ori 1 is a cool plateforming game though

[nimble pebble]

I like Platforming to not be the main focus

If it's a semi focus that works for me

[worldly quarry]

The Ori games are good and in the end I feel like im really just complaining about there not being more content which shows that I want to see more

[twin inlet]

Ori wow is just HK ori edition

[nimble pebble]

HK and probably SS balances the Platforming in a way that doesn't feel like a complete and only platformer

[nimble pebble]

Fair enough

[tall hinge]

the thing i like most about metroidvanias is the boss fights and i feel like ori was really lacking in that but on exploration it was pretty good

[shy stirrup]

Its barely metroid and fails at being a vania

[twin inlet]

ori wow had some solid ones

[nimble pebble]

indeed

[shy stirrup]

Like it has an interconnected map but the only non linear part is the dlc

[rapid topaz]

The thing that I find the most weird is just, that there are 3 branches or upgrades and you just spend "upgrade points" on them. You're invited to rather spend equally (because of the cost augmentation at higher levels)... But || if you rush all of the point in a straight line on a branch this makes the game stupidly easier (triple jumping, revealing secret places, etc.) + you can cheese a lot of areas/shortcuts. || (spoilers just in case)

[shy stirrup]

And the combat doesny even exist

[shy stirrup]

Bro i literally skipped like the hardest platforming section with triple jump

[rapid topaz]

I have done the exact same lmao

[shy stirrup]

No game needs an optional tripple jump

[tall hinge]

maybe i was comparing it to hk too much but i only played wow and i just swarmed through the boss fights, i pretty much had only one tactic and it worked for every boss and i didnt really feel challenged

[worldly quarry]

Yes. Even with WotW new combat system I feel like you never get to truly explore it

[shy stirrup]

How much better is wotw?

[languid linden]

A whole lot better imo

[shy stirrup]

Specifically in regards to non linearity and combat

[pallid flare]

20€ much better

[languid linden]

It is a lot less linear and the combat is way better

[shy stirrup]

Are there real bosses

[rapid topaz]

WotW has much more improved combats compared to BF

[tall hinge]

yes

[shy stirrup]

Aight im getting it as soon as possible then

[twin inlet]

yeah, normal wasnt that hard

[languid linden]

5 of them iirc

[rapid topaz]

there isn't a lot of bosses but they're really stylish

[languid linden]

||Mora, Kwolok, Shriek, and that thing in the Willow's End that's more like a miniboss||
Okay more like 3 and a half

[shy stirrup]

Kwolok is a cool name

[tall hinge]

i guess maybe its a problem with choosing difficulty because i just chose normal and left not feeling satisfied enough. one of the downsides of seperate difficulties

[shy stirrup]

I hate games that give yoy a difficulty option right at the beginning

[tall hinge]

beeg frog

[shy stirrup]

Either normal is too easy or too hard there is no inbetween

[silver oak]

There’s also 2 and a half escape sequences

[tall hinge]

i really liked the escape sequences tho those were really fun

[rapid topaz]

Play on Hard. Normal and Easy you'll just roll over it

[languid linden]

Pretty sure you can change it while in the middle of a run

[nimble pebble]

I will be adding it in an options menu in my game and you need the passcodes to change the setting

[shy stirrup]

Idr if you can in ori 1

[silver oak]

Yeah they had perfected them from the first game

[languid linden]

Why 2 and a half and not 3

[twin inlet]

Eh, I wasnt really playing it for difficult bosses anyway so it was fine for me. Bosses looked and acted really cool too so combat and boss fights were improved a lot imo

[shy stirrup]

The gravity dungeon in ori 1 was fucking awesome tho

[nimble pebble]

Aren't they making an Ori 3 or was that just a rumour

[languid linden]

You can. I changed my mode to easy in the Forlorn Ruins. It did not help

[shy stirrup]

Moon studios is working on something but we dont know what

[twin inlet]

Havent heard any news but they probably will

[languid linden]

I think they're making another game but they said it's not about Ori

[silver oak]

||Kwolok has a very short one before the fight||

[languid linden]

Oh yeah

But there's also 3 full ones: ||Watermill place, Baur's Reach, and the Sandworm one||

[tall hinge]

damn i do not remember the area names rip

[silver oak]

Oh right forgot about ||wellspring||

[pallid flare]

i only played ori 1 and am clicking all the spoilers

[rapid topaz]

there's a simple reason that Ori 3 is unlikely (major spoilers) || just because of the end cinematic ||

[pallid flare]

i didn't even get halfway through

[silver oak]

Ori 2 is worth it imo

[languid linden]

Oh yeah the part where ||batman dies in Silksong|| was also really good

[coarse leaf]

I have no idea what the context of the conversation is at all, yet I am mashing on all the spoilered messages despite me never even touching an Ori game

[pallid flare]

damn

[rapid topaz]

yeeaah

[nimble pebble]

I refuse to play either Ori because they simply aren't my types of games and I won't enjoy them

[shy stirrup]

I have no clue what the fuck a kwolok is but it sounfs cool

[silver oak]

And then ||the joker yells “I am your father||, that made me tear up

[nimble pebble]

You can't get me in your cult you hear me!

[tall hinge]

i was actually crying during that

[shy stirrup]

Pillow unrelated but do you like 2d metroid

[nimble pebble]

eh, not really

[coarse leaf]

Actually, i DID play a demo of the first Ori and i found the gameplay... so, very, tremendously boring. A little off, as well. Just my personal taste/opinion

[languid linden]

||Big nice frog, gets taken over by some weird thing||

[tall hinge]

totally unrelated

[shy stirrup]

So you just dont like metroidvanias that much?

[nimble pebble]

Looks fine but not my type of stuff

[pallid flare]

they're pretty cheap tho

[nimble pebble]

I like Modern Metroidvanias

[shy stirrup]

Fair

[languid linden]

Well yeah, Ori one is...decent at best imo

[silver oak]

SotN and Super Metroid are both high on my video game bucket list

[shy stirrup]

You should play prime 1 tho

[rapid topaz]

Axiom Verge is great tho

[tall hinge]

what SotN

[shy stirrup]

I hated super on my first playthrough cuz its waaay to cryptic sometimes like how am i supposed to know to bomb yhe pipe

[pallid flare]

axiom verge is kinda meh for me

[tall hinge]

SYMPHONY OF THE KNIGHT I GOT IT NVM

[coarse leaf]

I have replayed Super Metroid so much, it’s to the point where I hate it. Merely thinking about the content in the game makes me sick.

[shy stirrup]

I liked it a lot better on playthrough 2

I havent played sotn yet tho

[silver oak]

I got about 3/4 of the way through and lost steam cuz the endgame bosses are really bad

[nimble pebble]

I'm mostly a game by game basis kind of guy not much for going by genre though some Genre's I like

[shy stirrup]

Zero mission is the best 2d metroid tho

[silver oak]

But the second one looks really good

[rapid topaz]

SilkSotN

[nimble pebble]

#sk-discussion message

[tall hinge]

which ones

[nimble pebble]

I don't like Roguelikes/lites but I like Gungeon

It's more about individual games than genres for me

[shy stirrup]

The only roguelike i kinda like is dead cells

I should retry enter the guneon tho

The difficulty curve in them is just too much for me

[twin inlet]

try coop, it's much more fun

[nimble pebble]

Adventure or Action RPG, sometimes puzzle games I can vibe to an other ones but tbh since I don't think about it much I mostly go game by game basis

[shy stirrup]

Like i have no clue how people beat deadcells on 1 boss cell

[twin inlet]

Lure a lad into your couch and play Enter the Gungeon with her

[shy stirrup]

Isnt lad a male

[nimble pebble]

I don't like Dead cells

[twin inlet]

yes

[tall hinge]

i tried hades and dead cells didnt like them both so i concluded that i dont like rougelites/rougelikes

[shy stirrup]

Every time i try to play more deadcells i just give up

[twin inlet]

I misspelled it

[nimble pebble]

I like hades and gungeon but not deadcells

[shy stirrup]

The game is too damn hard for my puny hollow knight brain

[pallid flare]

gungeon tho

[nimble pebble]

I'm very much game by game not by genre because you can find a gem in a genre you don't like

[shy stirrup]

I tried gungeon with a keyboard but now i have a pro controller so i should try it with thaf

[twin inlet]

But I'm not going to fix it cause nowadays a lad can have a her pronoun and I dont want to get cancelled on twitter

[nimble pebble]

[nimble pebble]

Both are good, I have it on PC and Switch and can say Pro controller epic for it as well (keyboard fine though) if you want I can give my remapped controlls since the default controller controls are aids

[shy stirrup]

Ye dm em to me

[rapid topaz]

I'm the type of guy who likes a lot of genres... Maybe too much

[nimble pebble]

ight

[shy stirrup]

I like metroidvaniad and 2d and 3d platforms and thats about it lmao

[nimble pebble]

That's fine

[shy stirrup]

And zelda i love zelda

[nimble pebble]

based, Ahit fan? cause I'm playing rn

[shy stirrup]

And sometimes pokemon depending on the game

[nimble pebble]

Zelda epic can't wait to play SS for my birthday

[shy stirrup]

I got it for my bday and still havent finished it

[rapid topaz]

also I just like to test every games I'm interested to, because sometimes I could get surprised

[twin inlet]

I like his sword a lot

[nimble pebble]

yeah

[pallid flare]

what if you regret the 3€ purchase

[shy stirrup]

I started a zelda marathon half way through

[nimble pebble]

I like it especially the DLC Nyakuza metro is fucking epicccc

[tall hinge]

i really liked celeste tho

[shy stirrup]

Also my save data got corrupted when i wanted to play and even tho its fixed now i lost motivation

[twin inlet]

Level design on that dlc was awesome, too bad quests sucked

[nimble pebble]

I see

[tall hinge]

i liked playing celeste more than i liked playing hk

[twin inlet]

Finished main game but those b-sides are so hard

[nimble pebble]

Good music good level design stickers, food all the epic

[tall hinge]

damn i did every side and then still wanted more

[twin inlet]

You are crazy

[nimble pebble]

Celeste is a hardcore platformer which isn't my type

[tall hinge]

thank you

[twin inlet]

I cant do that on Mouse Keyboard

It is pure hell

[shy stirrup]

I had to use assit mode for celeste playthrough 1 but when i beat it normally it was sooo rewarding

[rapid topaz]

I think I did 100% 3 times in a year lol

[tall hinge]

god gamer right here

[rapid topaz]

Also chapter 9 wtf that was too great

[twin inlet]

What is wrong with you people

[tall hinge]

ikr

[languid linden]

I'm playing Celeste right now

[tall hinge]

does 100% include golden strawbs?

[languid linden]

Well, not right now, but you know what I mean

[rapid topaz]

No no no I'm not masochist

[languid linden]

I just finished the dream sequence in Chapter 2

[dusty kettle]

What does Hornet eat

[tall hinge]

oh thank god then you really would be crazy

[pallid flare]

is it really 100% then

[twin inlet]

Void

[tall hinge]

lifeblood needles

[rapid topaz]

Golden berries are extra

[pallid flare]

still

[rapid topaz]

i tried them but it takes lot of time and efforts

[pallid flare]

arent you supposed to get everything

[tall hinge]

i did golden 1a and then the others were too difficult

[pallid flare]

yeah yeah fair

[tall hinge]

its like hk 112%, the goldens are counted above the 100%

although not exactly similar

[pallid flare]

i never got through the hotel so i shouldnt judge

[tall hinge]

i did dashless 1a that was an experience

[rapid topaz]

C sides golden are easier, they're short levels. B sides golden are by far the worst
A sides are in-between I would say

dashless 1a is horrible lol

[tall hinge]

lmao at least its not deathless that would be hell

[rapid topaz]

Imagine (someone did that I don't remember who)

[tall hinge]

of course someone did that, the celeste community is crazy

anyways, it just turned 3am so bye bye!

[pallid flare]

2 am gang

[rapid topaz]

first playthrough is always the best

[nimble pebble]

8pm gang

[vocal orchid]

You are what you eat

[languid linden]

7 pm gang

[twin inlet]

Hornet is Void

[vocal orchid]

Hornet is void CONFIRMED

[twin inlet]

3 AM people

[analog lily]

No 10AM people

[trim estuary]

She eats void?

[vocal orchid]

Yes he said that previously

[tribal schooner]

There is no better feeling that refighting a boss that you know you can beat after not playing for awhile

[nimble pebble]

yeah

[twin inlet]

Yes

[shy stirrup]

yes

man why doesnt epic games have achievements or controller support

[trim estuary]

Wait so when hornet dies in Ss she vomits out void

[shy stirrup]

i have to hook my game up with steam every time

[coarse leaf]

Can’t wait for this channel to become more than discussion talking about Silksong never releasing

[twin inlet]

One day suffering will stop

[trim estuary]

Silknever! (Never Happening)

[coarse leaf]

Because it’s already annoying to constantly hear the same joke ver badam

[nimble pebble]

Because they're greedy fucks who just want to be the top dog not be consumer friendly

[lament basin]

it's never coming out

[nimble pebble]

[trim estuary]

They have achievements though

[shy stirrup]

i like the free games tho

[nimble pebble]

Fair enough but personally I have reasons to not like them

[shy stirrup]

i would have never played borderlands 2 without it

but yeah they are scummy in literally every other way possible

[marsh ibex]

A.) mentioning this will just get a multitude of entirely original jokes of doing the thing you don’t like
B.) discussions about the game happen all the time

[nimble pebble]

[shy stirrup]

like how do they still not have proper controller support

[coarse leaf]

Oh yay.

[shy stirrup]

it drives me fucking nuts

[coarse leaf]

I mean someone said something about Hornet vomiting void so uh

[nimble pebble]

💰

[charred pulsar]

[coarse leaf]

She is the shade lord confirmed?

[shy stirrup]

ok i am redownloading enter the gungeon

[rapid topaz]

what makes EGS popularity so bad? Aside of the cheap menus and lack of features, I don't know

[coarse leaf]

EGS?

[languid linden]

🥚

[trim estuary]

Epic games (store)

[rapid topaz]

Epic games store

[coarse leaf]

Epic Game Store?

[shy stirrup]

imo its the amount of stuff they said they will add but never did

[marsh ibex]

Fortnite bad

[shy stirrup]

theyve said they will add achievements soon for like 2 years

[coarse leaf]

Oh it’s infamous for making once widespread games into an Epic Exclusive

[shy stirrup]

idrc about that

[coarse leaf]

Like Rocket League which got taken out of steam and into Epic Game Store

[trim estuary]

Exaaactly

[shy stirrup]

thats how business works lol

[coarse leaf]

Yeah but business is bad

[rapid topaz]

oh yeah the famous fortnite bad

[shy stirrup]

obviously if someone gives me more money to put my game on their store ill say yeah

[coarse leaf]

/j

[nimble pebble]

It's not business it's terrible business

[trim estuary]

Business is boomin?

[shy stirrup]

i think its a bit of an overreaction

[coarse leaf]

Tbh that’s something ||Mr. Jawsum|| would do tbh

Omori Mid-Endgame character spoilers

[nimble pebble]

It's more practical to be on multiple platforms for maximum accessibility therefore more profit for the company in question but these platforms just have massive egos

[trim estuary]

Are you Arcadia from

[coarse leaf]

Wait what if Hollow Knight and Omori became EGS exclusives

[trim estuary]

Not happening

[coarse leaf]

From where

From Silksong or Angels of Arcadia

[trim estuary]

EGS exclusives just aren’t worth it at this point

[shy stirrup]

i doubt ss will be an exclusive

it fucks up the entire modding community lol

[coarse leaf]

True

[trim estuary]

EGS > Microsoft store

[shy stirrup]

i mean no shit

[nimble pebble]

I don't think TC would allow for HK to be a EGS exclusive they'd probably say "all platforms or we're not releasing it there"

[shy stirrup]

you couldnt pay me to buy a game from the microsoft store

[trim estuary]

They’re also kind of partnered with Nintendo

[rapid topaz]

but like Epic exclusive won't stop me to play the games. I don't see the problem? except some things maybe

[coarse leaf]

I made the mistake of buying MC Dungeons from the MS Store

[nimble pebble]

They aren't

[coarse leaf]

Now my MC Launcher is feeling half empty

[trim estuary]

Well kind of but not really

[shy stirrup]

tc is just deciding to launch it day 1 on switch nintendo has nothing to do with it

[nimble pebble]

Nintendo reached out to TC asking for a launch on their system, they aren't partnered

[shy stirrup]

its cuz switch and steam sold the most copies

[shy stirrup]

oh they did?? i never knew that

[trim estuary]

Nintendo partnered with them to make the launch happen

[nimble pebble]

I believe they asked yeah but they still aren't partneered

[nimble pebble]

Lmao no they didn't

[trim estuary]

No not that kind of partnered

[shy stirrup]

you could also say steam partnered with tc to make the launch happen.

[nimble pebble]

[trim estuary]

No cause steam didn’t reach out to TC as far as we know

[coarse leaf]

Lmao Omoricord is talking about exclusivity but for Nintendo

[nimble pebble]

Reaching out to TC doesn't make them a partner it just means they specifically wanted SS to be an on launch title

[trim estuary]

Distract them

[trim estuary]

Not that kind of partner

[coarse leaf]

It’s more in my league so cya for now

[dusty kettle]

Is omori good or just another run of the mill "deep and artistic" 2d rpg

[nimble pebble]

I'd play Omori if it was on switch since I don't really feel like getting it on pc

[languid linden]

It's excellent (please point that gun away from my head now)

[shy stirrup]

i have no clue what omori is about

[coarse leaf]

It’s planned to be coming to switch

[nimble pebble]

It's good but I suppose that's up to interpretation

[coarse leaf]

Years ago a 3ds version was planned but uh

[pallid flare]

nono say more

[languid linden]

I haven't actually played it

[nimble pebble]

Lmao nice

[shy stirrup]

is it a metroidvania? is it a platformer? is it a puzzle game? is it an rpg?

[coarse leaf]

Omori = rpg

[nimble pebble]

Omori is a turned based adventure RPG

[pallid flare]

rpg, where nothing goes wrong

[languid linden]

Depression

[coarse leaf]

But darker than hollow Knight

[shy stirrup]

so undertale?

[coarse leaf]

No darker than Undertale

[pallid flare]

nah game is cute

[nimble pebble]

HK doesn't deal with|| actual depression like a human would have so yeah||

[coarse leaf]

Myla

[shy stirrup]

myla is crazy

[coarse leaf]

Did someone say... depression?!

Ok yeah I see

[shy stirrup]

thats not depression

[coarse leaf]

Wait uh, I got it!

Nailmaster after Pure Nail

[shy stirrup]

ok maybe that

[coarse leaf]

He literally wanted ||assisted suicide||

[pallid flare]

spoilers for hollow knight are allowed here

[shy stirrup]

yeah i guess he gets depression cuz hes lost all purpose in life.

[coarse leaf]

Oh ok

[nimble pebble]

No, happi gay bug

[shy stirrup]

i killed him first playthough cuz i thought he wanted it

like how cloth wants to die anyways so might as well give her what she wants

[nimble pebble]

I looked up alternatives and saved him on my main file

[shy stirrup]

people who kill him with spells are really mean tho

idc if its faster hes gonna die without fulfilling his last wish.

[coarse leaf]

Me, starting up new runs for fun, killing him with defender’s crest

[nimble pebble]

See the difference between Cloth and Nailsmith is Nailsmith wants to die but letting him live makes him happy Cloth dying in glorious battle makes her happy but not being there and surviving makes her depressed

[shy stirrup]

good point

[nimble pebble]

[languid linden]

I think HK is arguably darker than undertale

[shy stirrup]

i never really got what was that dark about undertale

[languid linden]

Undertale has one genocide sometimes, HK has 3 before the game starts

[coarse leaf]

[shy stirrup]

its kinda mature with some of its philosophical stuff but its not that dark.

[nimble pebble]

Your crowvibin privileges are revoked

[languid linden]

Plus the main character is the walking corpse of a baby

[coarse leaf]

[nimble pebble]

I don't see anything only a blank message because your privileges were taken away

[coarse leaf]

[tribal schooner]

she still thinks she is alive by the end of the fight

[shy stirrup]

is crowsworn confirmed for a day 1 release on switch?

[languid linden]

They said that they don't know if it'll release on all platforms at launch

[coarse leaf]

It better be.

[nimble pebble]

That's her memory of the fight we all know ghosts are essence taken form of memories

Also she's happy there

[shy stirrup]

ok ima head out now and play some gungeon. adios guys

[nimble pebble]

To my knowledge Crowkart is steam only idk if they're doing a switch thing or not

[nimble pebble]

Have fun, it is epic game

[tribal schooner]

are they memories tho? there are a few things that suggest otherwise

[coarse leaf]

More lore please

I didn’t know that

[languid linden]

Idk ghosts are confusing

Don't get me started on Lost Kin

[nimble pebble]

They are as far as the lore on spirits seems to go

Also I believe seer mentions it

[dusty kettle]

Okay I pull up

Hop out at the after party

You and all your friends say they love to get naughty

Sippin on that Henn' I know you love that Bacardi

1942, I take you back in that 'Rari

[silver oak]

Switchin' lanes and I'm seein' lights, you know I watch the curb

[pallid flare]

what is this

[nimble pebble]

[silver oak]

Idk, I just looked it up

Smokin' weed, you know I'm gettin' high, you know it calm my nerves

The song's called "After party" by Don Toliver

I don't really want to continue this

[serene patrol]

Such silksong discussion

Much confusion

[silver oak]

God I haven't thought about Doge in like 2 years

[nimble pebble]

You act as if this isn't normal

[serene patrol]

Naw it is at this point ... sadge

[silver oak]

The virgin #hk-lore regular vs the chad #sk-discussion discussion regular

[serene patrol]

[silver oak]

Or more accurately,
The virgin #sk-discussion vs the chad grass toucher

[nimble pebble]

We're #ss-offtopic until SS is out

[pallid flare]

thank you

[fleet temple]

virgin #hk-discussion vs chad #hk-help

[serene patrol]

Or just ..... #offtopic

[silver oak]

#ss-speculation

[pallid flare]

chad #hk-help

[silver oak]

#hk-help regulars are the true heros

[fleet temple]

yes

[pallid flare]

we shit on everyone but them

[serene patrol]

Its close tho i can feel it ... everyday we're one step ahead to release

[fleet temple]

yeah, that's how time works

[analog lily]

Yes, we are slowly getting closer but don't get your hopes up

[silver oak]

Every time someone makes a silknever joke ss is delayed by a month

[fleet temple]

i do feel that silksong is nearing, i can sense it

[nimble pebble]

SS will be out

[serene patrol]

Damn! Who would've thought huh??

[analog lily]

Well then it will never be out

[fleet temple]

wouldn't that be a silknever joke?

[silver oak]

I literally just made that joke, keep up

[stoic jacinth]

i snailed

[silver oak]

Self-snail

[stoic jacinth]

🐌

[silver oak]

Silksong will release in 1

[real jackal]

I will make a Hollow Knight clone until Silksong is released.

[serene patrol]

Bet

[fleet temple]

i think that ss

[silver oak]

Why would you make a Hollow Knight clone when you could just... play Hollow Knight

[real jackal]

Because I want Hollow Knight 2

[serene patrol]

U mean silksong?

[real jackal]

Electric Boogaloo

[silver oak]

Silksong is literally Hollow Knight 2

[fleet temple]

if you want hollow knight clone, just play crowsworn

[real jackal]

Crowsworn is copying Donkey Kong Country.

[nimble pebble]

[coarse leaf]

Go play Gleamlight

[analog lily]

Go play ZoteBoat

[nimble pebble]

[real jackal]

Gleamlight is not a Hollow Knight clone nor a good game.

[nimble pebble]

It's just bad

[coarse leaf]

Play it anyways

[silver oak]

Hollow Knight is a Dungeons and Dragons ripoff

[real jackal]

I will play Crypt of the Serpent King, 11/10 game.

[serene patrol]

Hollow knight is a metroid ripoff

[nimble pebble]

Do tell

[fleet temple]

hollow knight ripped off mario bros, they're both 2d

[real jackal]

Look up a video of it and bask in its glory and pinacle of game design and jump curves.

[young walrus]

Take this back, now.

[serene patrol]

Relax ... its just 2d

[real jackal]

Hollow Knight copied Super Mario Bros 2. by being a masterpiece like it.

[fleet temple]

[silver oak]

What the hell, I found this game called "Silksong" on Steam that literally took a main npc character from Hollow Knight and stole its artstyle. Even the developers are calling themselves "Team Cherry." What a bunch of losers

[analog lily]

Yeah what a ripoff

[real jackal]

Silksong released early cool!

[coarse leaf]

Hollow Knight ripped off Minecraft because it has swords

[young walrus]

Losers, I bet their games are terrible

[real jackal]

There was a game on the app store called Dead Cells with the Knight from Hollow Knight pasted onto it.

[serene patrol]

Hades copied Dead cells cuz u restart when u die

[coarse leaf]

lifeblood is literally absorption hearts from minecraft like come on guys

[silver oak]

I found this game called "The middle ages", it's this ancient game that apparently had swords before even Minecraft

[young walrus]

Hollow Knight copied Celeste cuz you can wall jump and double jump

[sand junco]

silksong is a hollow knight ripoff

[real jackal]

Heck, you even can regenerate health by holding down a button!

[serene patrol]

Umm scuse me ...Theres a game called zelda before the middle ages get ur facts straight~

[nimble pebble]

I hate how accurate this is to those stupid people who actually talk like this

[coarse leaf]

uhh actually if i recall one of the items in silksong looks like one from hollow knight, what the freak

[silver oak]

I can't believe Hollow Knight and Ori 2 both have a double jump ability!

[real jackal]

Pillow King are you made out of feathers or polyester?

[serene patrol]

The games is also based on bugs! Unnacceptable!

[silver oak]

Moon studios are such a copycat

[coarse leaf]

this makes me think, did team cherry copy bug fables?

[silver oak]

https://tenor.com/view/adventuretime-lemongrab-unacceptable-unexceptable-gif-4798745

[serene patrol]

We all need a "Pillow King" in our lives

[coarse leaf]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-stare-look-curious-gif-9264723

[serene patrol]

Who keeps the pillow cold

[silver oak]

I forget Discord has GIFs sometimes

[sand junco]

team cherry is so unoriginal

[real jackal]

Can't believe Hollow Knight copied Desert Bus by having a long game.

[nimble pebble]

[analog lily]

Hollow Knight is a massive rip off because it copied Dreams

[coarse leaf]

hollow knight copied hungry knight and that is absolutely unacceptable

[reef scarab]

Hollow Knight ripped off history by having knight in its name

[nimble pebble]

Can't believe everything copied Hollow Knight because it invented video games

[real jackal]

It copied Dark Souls by having a fallen kingdom.

[analog lily]

and having King

[stoic jacinth]

this is the end product of the news drought

[hollow terrace]

I think the joke ran it course

[real jackal]

Hollow Knight copied Fortnite by having guns in it.

[sand junco]

[reef scarab]

what’s with metroidvanias and having a formerly prosperous kingdom that fell due to some sort of zombifying disease

[silver oak]

Yeah it's getting stale

[serene patrol]

U mean Doom?

[barren roost]

the joke ran its course months ago

[reef scarab]

Hollow Knight, Ender Lilies, Crowsworn, and I guess dead cells but that’s kind of a roguevania?

[real jackal]

Copied Plants vs. Zombies smh.

[silver oak]

Dark souls?

Some people call Dark Souls a 3d metroidvania

[reef scarab]

Yeah it’s not a very original idea lol

[coarse leaf]

Hey guys this conversation ripped off the one from months ago

[stoic jacinth]

impossible. the (instert joke about original/real life idea a game had being implemented in hollow knight including but not limited to: being a video game, walking, and jumping) joke got old?

[analog lily]

Hollow knight copied life because it has elderbug

It also copied life because it has talking

[hollow terrace]

alright we get it

[young walrus]

Yes we do

[reef scarab]

But yeah a lot of metroidvanias have practically the same plot lol

[silver oak]

Hollow Knight has 100% original ideas and never stole anything ever

[real jackal]

Here is a new plot that has never been done before.

[nimble pebble]

It isn't it's an ARPG, their only evidence is an expansive map with backtracking to previous areas now equipped to do so which is not enough to call it a metroidvania same with Ori

[real jackal]

You have to save the world.

[reef scarab]

No shade to ender lilies but… ||the whole white priestess containing the disease thing is VERY similar to hollow knight||

[stoic jacinth]

and, on top of that, you are the "chosen one"! incredible

[tribal schooner]

thats right its the first of its kind

[nimble pebble]

New plot mindless simulator game with no clear objective besides having fun

[silver oak]

What's the chosen one, I've never heard that term before ||/s||

[coarse leaf]

No shade to ender lilies but the shade lord is very cool

[nimble pebble]

Ah yes an infection/plague was invented by HK

[stoic jacinth]

That's not what they were saying

[real jackal]

Covid 19 copied Hollow Knight.

[silver oak]

As we all know, Viruses are not real.

THIS IS A JOKE EVERYONE

[real jackal]

Too late

[nimble pebble]

I've heard of sealing off an infection/plague before in games and manga

Nothing is Original everything is inspired it is what it is

[silver oak]

HI WINDOW

[reef scarab]

I’m not saying it’s a ripoff or anything, it’s just the whole plot of ||some sort of vessel being used to contain a deadly disease, failing, and then some other vessel coming to take its place|| is kiiiinda really similar?

[stoic jacinth]

and common to be fair

[nimble pebble]

^

[reef scarab]

but tbh as a whole ender lilies is kind of overrated imo

[stoic jacinth]

i suppose the subplot of containing it in a being is slightly less common but eh

[stoic jacinth]

clutch imo usage

[nimble pebble]

It's a metroidvania for hardcore Metroidvania fans

[silver oak]

A thing I've always wanted to do is do like an inspiration tree, where people take games and list their main inspirations, and then list the inspirations for those games, etc.

Eventually you would either leave the video game sphere forever or find a few core games that revolutionized the industry

[nimble pebble]

We gon make a tree to see where it all goes?

[reef scarab]

it’s flaws are definitely apparent

[silver oak]

And if that happens we could even expand outward from games

[nimble pebble]

Well yes, as all games do

[nimble pebble]

into what exactly

[stoic jacinth]

Comics, books, tv shows, movies

[silver oak]

Any type of art

[reef scarab]

I mean like, very noticeable and rather annoying

[stoic jacinth]

everything that could possibly inspire a game dev

[nimble pebble]

fair enough

[wet loom]

then what would be the source of all the inspiration

[reef scarab]

I enjoyed ender lilies but I was kinda unsatisfied in a lot of aspects after finishing it

[nimble pebble]

I see, yes that would be cool to see further inspirations

[silver oak]

Go as far back as we can

[reef scarab]

I’m not gonna sugarcoat verboten domain though that area just sucks lol

[silver oak]

Crowdsource it, get people online in every field to do the things they are passionate about

[stoic jacinth]

that sounds super cool

[silver oak]

As long as it's art, it's fair game

[wet loom]

they released ng+ and boss rush for pc yesterday

[nimble pebble]

Tbh as long as the Bideos game entertained me that's good enough for me though I can listen to critques and agree with some disagree with others

[silver oak]

It's been brewing in my head for a while

[reef scarab]

They did? Nice to see them updating it. I’ll check it out when the update comes to switch.

[wet loom]

its not console yet, im in the same boat

[reef scarab]

though one particular spirit just cheeses all of the bosses lol

[wet loom]

they also added a way to customize game values

[nimble pebble]

Perhaps if it comes to switch I'll play it

[wet loom]

so max level, damage multipliers, etc

[reef scarab]

ender lilies is on switch

[wet loom]

switch was the first console it was on im pretty sure

[nimble pebble]

Perhaps I shall play it one day then

[stoic jacinth]

all i need on switch is hk mario oddesy and enter the gungeon, i'm usually reluctant to buy games on it since there's no refund system at all

[reef scarab]

fair warning the combat can feel really campy at times

[stoic jacinth]

i may try ender lilies though

[reef scarab]

Like, you gotta run away and fire projectiles or hit and run all the time

[wet loom]

you can dodge through enemies, and they have a sheild ability

[nimble pebble]

I buy what I know I would like

[stoic jacinth]

Yeah exactly

[nimble pebble]

Aka games I have on steam or games I've extensively researched

[reef scarab]

try that against that one weird monster in the verboten domain

[stoic jacinth]

the rewards program they have on the switch helps since lots of games on it are cheap indie games i can just try to no cost of my own

[nimble pebble]

Agreed

[wet loom]

the giant ones are crap, i just last right them

[nimble pebble]

I got Abzu like 98% off on a sale

[wet loom]

but that's really the only hit and run

[reef scarab]

Can they please add enough resources to fully upgrade everything

[nimble pebble]

I got little nightmares free as some kind of promo on steam

[reef scarab]

Hollow Knight Silksong

[nimble pebble]

That is indeed a game that is coming out

[wet loom]

i think they did finally

and the final boss room turns orange

[mortal grove]

hi

[silver oak]

hey

[wet loom]

i know completing boss rush and ng+ gives you more blight, and they added a blight pickup in the empty stockade room

[reef scarab]

Oh I haven’t played in a couple months, I’m glad they’re getting around to fixing popular complaints lol

[wet loom]

its the update animal crossing fans wanted

[mortal grove]

the what

[nimble pebble]

I've only played new horizons and it's fun but it can get boring at times

it's fun when I want to vibe though

[mortal grove]

i feel like id be frustrated playing new horizons somehow

[stoic jacinth]

acnh is fun

it has some charm i can't place and it's that much more fun for it

[nimble pebble]

^

[tough moat]

You know it's sad that ori was compared to kh and vice versa

Moon studios even tried to compete with hk a bit

When ss comes it's a wrap

[coarse leaf]

Buy Dead Cells

[tough moat]

Why is there a timer for editing

[mortal grove]

NO buy rain world also there isnt

[tough moat]

Guys come on now

[coarse leaf]

[tough moat]

Buy hades

[silver oak]

Hades good

[coarse leaf]

Hades yuck ||🪝||

[mortal grove]

id reply back with a spinning slugcat but my nitro died

[nimble pebble]

[silver oak]

That reminds me, I still have yet to actually escape in Hades

[nimble pebble]

Do it

[mortal grove]

🧻

[tough moat]

?

[silver oak]

I am a gamer in that I enjoy games. I am not a gamer in that I am good at them

[tough moat]

So you have never played DS then?

[silver oak]

I am, in fact, very bad

[mortal grove]

am i even a gamer

[tough moat]

So it's hard for to complete a game

Or a hard game specifically

[nimble pebble]

I'm also very bad just very determined and stubborn to the point where I make the game bend to my will and make me win

[silver oak]

I remember watching Joseph Anderson's HK review and he said something along the lines of "From the start to the first final boss, you're looking at around 20 hours"

[tough moat]

You have to git gud to be a gamer

[nimble pebble]

imagine belinging for then ending cbm

[silver oak]

And I went "what video game steroids are you on"

[tough moat]

Its article 13 of gaming

[silver oak]

[nimble pebble]

[mortal grove]

it took me like 48 hours for 112

[silver oak]

Jesus, that's way faster than me

[tough moat]

Hornet better have a git gud sound effect or I am uninstalling

[silver oak]

Like, 3 or 4 times faster

[nimble pebble]

I can't recall how long it took me the first time to get 112% but now a days I can do it in 15 hours or less

[tough moat]

Once the game comes out of course

[nimble pebble]

Hold the shaw button the longer you do the more reverb

[wet loom]

thats ender lilies, but with completing the whole game

[silver oak]

sha-

[mortal grove]

vine boom sfx

[nimble pebble]

The Crowkart steam keys have been approved now to wait for them to be given out

[silver oak]

LMAOOO I DID IT 3 DAYS EARLIER THAN YOU #sk-discussion message

Get dunked on

[nimble pebble]

I did my first 112% over a year ago

[nimble pebble]

Doesn't really matter though since people got the game at different intervals

[silver oak]

My achievement list is very interesting

[mortal grove]

the days of no

[silver oak]

Did false knight in Sep 2019, got the first charmed achievement at the same time, then did nothing for 6 months

I think I thought it was going to be much smaller, so I dropped it and played Celeste instead

[mortal grove]

LOL

[silver oak]

Then in April I restarted my save file and beat Hornet

[wet loom]

me tryna find cornifer in city

[silver oak]

May 2020 was when I really grinded it

[nimble pebble]

Lmao

[silver oak]

I got all 3 dreamers within 24 hours of eachother

[nimble pebble]

Do you think we'll get a silk bow tool?

[mortal grove]

i went to waterways

[silver oak]

This is funny

[wet loom]

lol

[nimble pebble]

A crossshawbow

[silver oak]

Why do you have a yellow role

[wet loom]

this should be a greek epic

[stoic jacinth]

that would probably be similar to the straight pins

[silver oak]

Sa1t is secret admin?

[nimble pebble]

Not if it's a crossbow

[silver oak]

We have a silk spear

[mortal grove]

i dreamnailed revek

[stoic jacinth]

ah it's a private server

[mortal grove]

and i thought mato would beat me up

[silver oak]

HK seems to like operating on the orthogonal directions, and a bow that only shoots in 4 directions feels weird

[stoic jacinth]

i mean the straight pins look like they just go in 2

[silver oak]

So I don't think there'll be a bow

But I could be wrong

[nimble pebble]

Can't stop me with my Omnidirectional SIlkCrossbow

[wet loom]

i thought the nailmasters and dreamers were both gonna be bosses

[silver oak]

Can't touch this

[stoic jacinth]

dreamers not being bosses is a cool design choice, i'm glad they aren't

[wet loom]

i had to mentally prepare for dreamnailing herrah

[mortal grove]

okay last one i found the troupe while trying to go to the stag station

[wet loom]

then realized it was for nothing

how does one find the troupe when looking for a stag station

[nimble pebble]

I admire Sa1t's overreactions

[silver oak]

You ruined Elderbug's beauty sleep

You monster
