sk-discussion

[sacred stratus]

everyone here knew that for over 2 years

[smoky gyro]

[sacred stratus]

(except for me who didn't even know SS was a thing till June 2020)

[cloud summit]

I'd like to see a monster-flee, kind of like there was fake grubs tho

but a boss

[smoky gyro]

this picture hasn't changed since 2019

[sacred stratus]

we already fight a giant pill bug just to get fast-travel I don't think we'll fight a flee monster

is it weird that listening to Dirtmouth again makes me emotional?

(without Zote and Salubra of course)

[undone nova]

what's ss

[smoky gyro]

I hope ss gets more mod support

[sacred stratus]

Silksong

[undone nova]

ooh lol

[sacred stratus]

ok should I hand-draw my next pfp?

just want to hear your opinion

[shell yacht]

nah we hate it, no support

[serene chasm]

Are you good at drawing?

[sacred stratus]

fuck support all my homies hate support

[smoky gyro]

[sacred stratus]

not really at the level of the people in #art-discussion just doing that from time to time

[olive bobcat]

Can I get mod support

[serene chasm]

Alright. Yeah. You should draw your next pfp

[shell yacht]

no

[pallid flare]

despicable

[olive bobcat]

[serene chasm]

literally 1984

[olive bobcat]

Precisely nineteen eighty-four

[hollow smelt]

Yeah but he aint coming back i talked with him yesterday

hell yeah back in time we go

wait 10 thousand years

just stayt well fed and u live yes yes

[pallid flare]

yes 10 thousand years

[split cypress]

we shoulda been working on it- 30 years ago.

[warm bone]

woo
1 hr dead chat
we did it guys

[pallid flare]

🎉

[dusty nimbus]

Tune in again for the 2 hour long dead chat

[pallid flare]

wow

[serene chasm]

Lets go for 2 hours. Mods. If anyone posts after this, ban them

[pallid flare]

ban me

[warm bone]

don't say that they will ban you

[serene chasm]

pyroooooo noooooooo!

[pallid flare]

i have no idea?

what's up with your name?

[barren roost]

that seems new

[serene chasm]

Havent really had a lot of reasons to use it

[trim estuary]

me

[tiny panther]

holy they finally post something on their website

[twilit grotto]

is that silk song news channel still ongoing

[nimble radish]

still uploading every day

I'm only in one server

[analog lily]

[copper knot]

what

[analog lily]

what?

[copper knot]

what

[analog lily]

what???

[nimble radish]

huh?

[analog lily]

eer

[crude galleon]

What if sss wha

[trim estuary]

Almost got me

[fleet temple]

I heard this weird rumour that ss is apparently gonna be playable

[formal karma]

.>

[last oyster]

woah no way

[analog lily]

playable? What on earth

[obsidian juniper]

It got me,i was gonna ask

[fleet temple]

yeah, i don't trust these "leaks" probably all fake

[analog lily]

leaks, since when did leaks tell the truth?

[fleet temple]

exactly

also the amount of people falling for leths bait tweet

[formal karma]

he didn't make a bait tweet

[fleet temple]

yeah, bad wording on my part

[viral pivot]

Silksong... playable??? Impossible! Hornet falls to her death at the start!

[serene chasm]

SS is a movie

[fleet temple]

i guarantee that leth tweet is gonna make us repeast the nuke of 15th

[formal karma]

oh, we already have crazies

this poor man can't even support his fellow indies....

i hate then they just post his tweet and clown emote... that's zero effort

[fleet temple]

"haha silksong tommorow am i right guys🤡 "

[analog lily]

are you?

[fleet temple]

||no||

[analog lily]

clearly a simple answer of|| no|| is the truth to figuring out this crisis

[formal karma]

at this point I hope the 20th is real just so people don't take their disappointment too far

[analog lily]

speculation is the key to annihilation. That's why i don't think SS will be on any date people Think it will be at

[fleet temple]

i think that

[formal karma]

for sure, it'll just show up when TC says 'yea now's good'

[fleet temple]

that's how the people who complain about ss think production works

[last oyster]

The issue is how crazy long it's been. I mean, development began extremely soon after HK first came out and it'll be the 5 year anniversary in a couple of months

[formal karma]

not according to TC's very own design philosophy

[marsh ibex]

It hasn’t been full time development since HK came out

since yknow

They had the other content packs

[last oyster]

Oh that makes sense

[viral pivot]

wait whats on the 20th

[fleet temple]

they see it as "hey we've finished ss should we release it" "nah"

[formal karma]

and indie event

[formal karma]

oh, yea- them...... forget them

[last oyster]

Isn't a nintendo direct rumored for wednesday?

[formal karma]

no.... its something else

[last oyster]

Oh

[fleet temple]

[viral pivot]

im outta the loop and honestly idm too much cause ik its not gonna be at any of these events but i also still kinda curious when i see some date popped up

also ty XD

[formal karma]

'the escapist' indie showcase

gamescom indie showcase added 4 games to my wishlist and I hope this event is 4 more

[reef scarab]

new escapists content??? Or is it some other game

[formal karma]

its an indie showcase, shoiwng off indies

like how gamescom did

[fleet temple]

no, it's a showcase about how to escape prison

[formal karma]

excellent

[fleet temple]

yeah, I mean I was imprisoned unfairly anyways, I only destroyed ONE Universe, it's not that bad

[viral pivot]

I mean whos gonna notice

its only an entire universe

[fleet temple]

EXACTLY!

[formal karma]

if everyone in that universe was destroyed, that's fine

[drowsy pike]

I can't really decide on this since I'm not one of the people behind the maskbearer fakes

But I really hope the maskbearer team tries to negotiate with TC or something in a far future after SS releases to turn it into an expansion or an entirely new game

[viral pivot]

whats maskbearer

[warm bone]

the what?

[formal karma]

likely a mod

[marsh ibex]

probably should’ve asked first

[drowsy pike]

Maskbearer is essentially like a group of fakes (aka edited images)

Like the Silksong fakes that kinda look like actual in-game screenshots? Yeah like those

[warm bone]

yeah I've never heard of them

[viral pivot]

oooh

[warm bone]

oh these fakes

[drowsy pike]

If you mean me well yeah I obviously have no say but I did just give my thoughts on them on their server and I strongly recommend them to contact TC if they want to

[warm bone]

https://youtu.be/IjKOQSSGpB0

[fleet temple]

yeah, they're really talented

[drowsy pike]

I feel like it would be extremely beneficial and fun both for TC and these people to try to merge similarly to how other indie devs temporarily (or sometimes permanently) merge with fans to make works, like tboi

[viral pivot]

its some pretty good art and concepts ye

[warm bone]

they're not going to work together just going to say that now

[drowsy pike]

Idk what Leth has said about this or Graig if either of them have seen it but honestly if I was Leth I'd be looking forward to maybe speaking to TC about this in the future

[warm bone]

but tc is not going to stop them from doing what they're doing

[drowsy pike]

Why's that?

[formal karma]

pretty sure they wouldn't work together for the same reason that TC is still just 3 dudes

[warm bone]

tc only consists of 3 people and has for a very long time, don't see how this project is different from ones that have come before it and none of them has ever worked with tc

[fleet temple]

I did hear that they wanted to ask TC for permission to make it but i think they'd be fine and they wouldn't ask for collaboration

[formal karma]

yea TC wouldn't let someone else go and make a game in their universe

[drowsy pike]

I mean the difference is that they can't just make a game unlike the other people who are making mod expansions

Obviously I'm not trying to force them to contact TC to work on this

[fleet temple]

the admin on the masbearer discord just kinda semi shut that idea down

[drowsy pike]

I just genuinely think that TC considering that possibility wouldn't be surprising

I understand that it's a team of 3 people, but tbf a lot of other indie devs are also very small teams and still (in most cases temporarily) merge with fans or other teams to create one project or multiple

Again, not saying they 100% absolutely MUST or else I will go to their home and make them feel unsafe about it but yeah

[formal karma]

i would be hella surprised

[warm bone]

yeah it would be very surprising

[drowsy pike]

Speaking of which

[formal karma]

i would be less surprised to hear Silksong actually appears at as news date

[marsh ibex]

Shalun more like

oh shit wasn’t that the Quirrel game dude

mod

[drowsy pike]

I'm perfectly fine if they never contact them or if they idea is shut down even if they can't make the King's Pass area thing but even then they're incredibly talented

Also yeah they are

[proud vale]

Yooo Shalun doing great stuff over there

[little mesa]

Oh hey, our project

[proud vale]

Those screenshots are so clean though

[little mesa]

Glad to see Shal and I's project getting out there

Along with other members of our team!

[drowsy pike]

Hey

Wait a minute
Aren't you the one who drew the idea I had

The one that I posted the drawing on the speculation post thingy that Graig shared with TC

I'm still so thankful for that lmao I'm actually surprised but not surprised you're part of it

[little mesa]

Oh my gosh, haha yeah! That's me!

I'm so glad! It was cool 😊

[crude galleon]

O

[drowsy pike]

Yeah I'm still surprised by it lmao

[fleet temple]

I think that ss will have gameplay

hot take i know

[proud vale]

Regular we're gonna be putting you in dream-jail for that take

[fleet temple]

[proud vale]

[fleet temple]

ow

[trim estuary]

S-sil-silksoon?

[proud vale]

silk not that soon but other stuff soon!

[analog lily]

silk-don'thope-soon

[trim estuary]

Silk tomorrow

[fleet temple]

you sure

[trim estuary]

100% (-1)

[proud vale]

What you betting on it?

[fleet temple]

silk

get ready for this
are you ready

song

[trim estuary]

I’ll remain as MAG one day after Ss comes out
The reason I am MAG is because I lost a bet as to when Ss would come out

[analog lily]

[proud vale]

Hmmm you must become microscopic

[split cypress]

molecular ally genius

[fallen void]

There's rumors of a Direct happening on 8th!

You know what it means... SILKSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG!

[silver oak]

I look forward to the day you are zip again

Also I liked your old pfp as well

[silver oak]

I heard your mom will be there

This is a roast, fyi

I got 'em good

[fallow solar]

Is graig alive?

[silver oak]

Graig is undead

[analog lily]

well as far as I know, yees

[rancid crow]

he never been online anymore

[silver oak]

His last message was yesterday, what

And by "what" I mean what do you mean

[serene chasm]

No. That was Graig. Treefox is talking about Graig

[silver oak]

I see

[rancid crow]

thats right

[errant pulsar]

has anything interesting happened yet

[dry valley]

What if silksong is delayed because hornet has soap shoes because team cherry is collabing with soap

[dry valley]

no

[silver oak]

yes

[dry valley]

What if there are rails in silksong hornet can grind on (with her Soap™️ shoes)

[silver oak]

What if Hornet was void

[warm bone]

shovel knight

[silver oak]

hovel knight

[errant pulsar]

is this channel actually out of things to talk about for once

[silver oak]

Not many people are here at this time

It really depends on the day

[errant pulsar]

yeah, ive noticed that

[silver oak]

I'm sad because school is limiting the time I have to talk here

[errant pulsar]

i feel your pain

[serene chasm]

drop out

[silver oak]

Last week I was on here a ton but now I only pop on for a few minutes a day

[errant pulsar]

i am way too young to do that, unfortunately

[serene chasm]

TOS alert!

[silver oak]

Technically, I am old enough to legally drop out of school

[errant pulsar]

tos?

[silver oak]

Terms of Service

[serene chasm]

terms of service. Im making a joke that you are too young to be here

[silver oak]

You have to be 13 or older to be on Discord

[errant pulsar]

oh ok

well i am older than 13 so dont worry lol

[silver oak]

That's what you want us to think

[serene chasm]

Good. And if youre not, just dont say anything and you will be fine

[silver oak]

I remember that actually happened once
We found out a guy on here was twelve and he actually got banned iirc

[errant pulsar]

wow

[warm bone]

I think I remember that

[silver oak]

Also he stole the username of another user who got banned for being a dick

So people thought he was an alt anyway

[serene chasm]

I believe the admins/server can get in trouble if they let <13 kids on

[silver oak]

It was a whole thing

[errant pulsar]

thats an... interesting story

[silver oak]

I totally forget the username, they're both banned

[errant pulsar]

im honestly not sure how to react to that story

[serene chasm]

eh. It happens. nothng really to react to

[silver oak]

The guy who was doing the slytric scale also got banned for... other reasons

[serene chasm]

oh shit. really?!

[silver oak]

I'm not sure I should go there

[serene chasm]

He seemed like a pretty ok dude

[silver oak]

Yeah I only found out because they were also in another server I was in

I don't know if I should say it here but I can dm you

[serene chasm]

Sure, dm me

[silver oak]

Oh hey simo

[warm bone]

👁️ 👁️

[serene chasm]

Everyone act natural!

[charred pulsar]

Technically we don't have to ban them from the server. All we're asked/required to do is to report their account to Discord, but banning them from the server as well upholds the rule. Just in case y'know

I assume Discord would do a global ban on their account, or something? idk

[serene chasm]

I bet the discord cyber police come and arrest them

[silver oak]

Hands up

[charred pulsar]

Yeah that, damn, it's a shame what crimes people are willing to do tsk tsk

[serene chasm]

What if SS become illegal? would you all break the law to play?

[warm bone]

yeah how dare you be young, how could you do such a thing 🤦‍♂️

[warm bone]

depends how illegal

[silver oak]

No son of mine's playing Silksong!

[obsidian juniper]

How are you gonna be young just grow up bro

[silver oak]

That reminds me of the "why don't homeless people just buy homes" thing

[charred pulsar]

Video game violence after all. You don't want your children to turn into a half spider bug thing and kill other bugs?

[obsidian juniper]

Its all fun and games until he decides to kill the sun

[silver oak]

Is that better than turning into a strange black liquid/skull hybrid and killing other bugs?

[serene chasm]

Kids running around with sticks yelling "shaw!" at each other

[formal karma]

What in the heck....

[silver oak]

[errant pulsar]

ah, so icarus played hollow knight then?

[silver oak]

I don't think that's how the story of Icarus went

[obsidian juniper]

Idk icarus so....yes i Guess?

[serene chasm]

Icarus died at stage 6

[shell yacht]

Icarus and Daedelus flew with wax wings, dumbass challenged the sun and went splat

[silver oak]

Icarus got the void glitch on PoH

[obsidian juniper]

Ah
I should search the greek story someday

[shell yacht]

that was basically it

[serene chasm]

muricans? do you have the day off tomorrow?

[silver oak]

My school sucks so no

[obsidian juniper]

Is there something inportant tomorrow?

[silver oak]

Labor day

[serene chasm]

Labour day in Canada.

[obsidian juniper]

Aah

[silver oak]

Labour

[serene chasm]

Labor

lazy ass americans cant be bothered to add a single u that makes a word look way better

[silver oak]

My school is cutting a bunch of holidays so they can give us three weeks off in January

On one hand, wtf
But on the other hand, thanks?

[serene chasm]

What grade are you in?

[silver oak]

11th

[glossy gazelle]

I mean we did have a u in that word originally but we removed it for ease of typing the word

Same happened with Color

[errant pulsar]

im not sure if its true, but i once heard it had something to do with money and newspapers?

[shell yacht]

depends where u work

[glossy gazelle]

Yes

[serene chasm]

What about holiday break, Necro?

[glossy gazelle]

I have off college tomorrow so that’s nice

[silver oak]

3 weeks long

[serene chasm]

I have work off tomorrow

[silver oak]

Which is double what it normally is

[glossy gazelle]

My holiday break is a month

[silver oak]

I go to a private school so they can do weird shit with scheduling

[serene chasm]

Oh, Necro is all fancy

[errant pulsar]

im not exactly how mines doing break, we do like a half homeschool kind of thing so i only go on thursdays

[glossy gazelle]

I also used to go to a private school

[silver oak]

My dad works at the school so I get a huge discount

[glossy gazelle]

Noice

[obsidian juniper]

X3,i also go to private scholl,they tend to be better than public in my country

[serene chasm]

Great, Im surrounded by the bourgeoisie

[obsidian juniper]

Get out of here poor ||/s||
I think the scholl i go at Is private but not really expensive

[silver oak]

I was in public school from K-8 so

[glossy gazelle]

I never was in Public school I believe

[serene chasm]

technically I went to catholic school which is separate from the public school board here, though its still payed for with taxes, so still counts as a public school

[obsidian juniper]

Why are catholics schools payed with taxes?why are they different that others privates schools?

[obsidian juniper]

Understandable

[serene chasm]

basically its two public school boards. When start paying property tax in my city you choose which you support

[obsidian juniper]

How Is you two schools?mine has like a focus on comunication,i have subjets that are to study media and stuff

[obsidian juniper]

So like you get to chose if you pay taxes for normal or catholic schools?

[serene chasm]

yup

[obsidian juniper]

Makes sense

[tranquil igloo]

discord is starting to get dry for me a little

its probably the servers

[cunning geode]

nothing wrong with a break every now and then

[serene chasm]

You got to water it

[coarse leaf]

It's internet getting dry mostly
People are tired of arguments,
I am not finding lot of talkative people now a days like before years :(

[serene chasm]

Everyone's become jaded

[cunning geode]

its different for everyone

[tranquil igloo]

dc is now a plant

[cerulean sable]

60 fat is definitely viable for a fatigue neutral build just make sure to spec in the desired wep mastery + pathfinder

anyway early game movement that is all

[tranquil igloo]

what???

[fiery coral]

don't mind him

[tranquil igloo]

he says random things?

[fiery coral]

yes

[serene chasm]

Will do Unique

Also, Hi Unique

[fiery coral]

[serene chasm]

Im kinda low-key excited for silksong homebrews. The tools, crests, and other items have lots of potential that HK didnt have

[tranquil igloo]

people are obsessed with ss at this point

[serene chasm]

yes

also is your name chucky in korean?

[tranquil igloo]

No

ppl say that bcause of my pfp fsr

[serene chasm]

Thats what I assumed. What does it say?

[tranquil igloo]

its offensive but if you're on pc you can copy paste it with a translator

[serene chasm]

lol just did.

[tranquil igloo]

nice

[proud vale]

Hmm where are people getting these rumors about directs

[warm bone]

4chan

[serene chasm]

SS will never be in a direct

[proud vale]

Where will it be then?

[wintry mountain]

hey guys I have nobody to talk to so I'll just say it here, the people that made the silksong demo recreation (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvsSR1Tb3Gs), gave me and my team who are remaking the silksong demo again (not canceling this time) the sprites, which are public you just need to know where to look, so we will be starting soon.

[serene chasm]

At a Cherry Live?

[wintry mountain]

here are some of the sprites btw https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1bVFAGNbJ2i6f1JIiQWZekSFEGBd24YA8

not all of them just some

[serene chasm]

Cool. Good luck man

[proud vale]

Cherry direct?

Where have they been

[wintry mountain]

just gonna kinda send this sprite we have

[proud vale]

cute

[tranquil igloo]

Are these the sprites for the animation in game?

[wintry mountain]

yes

[tranquil igloo]

this game is gonna be awesome

[wintry mountain]

honestly idk what this is it was jsut in the sprites when they got sent to us

[proud vale]

spooky

[nimble pebble]

Hiiiiiiii Unique

[proud vale]

Unique, I would definitely recommend achievement hunting in OW, so fun

[tranquil igloo]

unique is the only mod i seen speak in this community

[serene chasm]

Unique is the coolest mod

[charred pulsar]

Unique is unique after all

[rapid topaz]

Unique is unique

[tranquil igloo]

rare mod

[rapid topaz]

ah 🐌

[mental jacinth]

[fiery coral]

after some progress yesterday I've gotten all but two of them

[serene chasm]

Man, Moss Grotto theme is so good

[fiery coral]

One is ||reaching the Eye in a single loop||, which I can manage without too much trouble, but am saving for last

And the other is ||landing on the Sun Station||, which I hate from the bottom of my heart and cannot believe is an actual achievement

[rapid topaz]

I think doing it at last is a great conclusion

[proud vale]

I saved that for last too! The hardest one I think was either ||making the model rocket hit hollow's lantern|| or ||colliding so fast with giant's deep that you break through the core||

That one's not so baddddd! I believeeee Unique

[rapid topaz]

|| the giant deep one is kind of a pain, because tornados kills your momentum sometimes so you have to do it again ||

[fiery coral]

||Hitting Hollow's Lantern isn't necessary though right? Can smash into the Sun too||

[proud vale]

yeah took me like 4 tries, you have to go like 15000km away or something stupid

[shy kiln]

Why you all putting so many spoilers?

[fiery coral]

Because Outer Wilds is a game best played blind

[shy kiln]

Oh ok

[proud vale]

True but I actually found HL way easier because 9 times out of 10, the sun will slingshot the rocket away

[serene chasm]

Outer Wild talk.

[fiery coral]

so hand over those eyes

[tranquil igloo]

Oh god not this again.

[fiery coral]

ah okay

[shy kiln]

Banned for not talking about Shaman Stone in #sk-discussion

[fiery coral]

[proud vale]

It shall be the third favorite game on this server

[rapid topaz]

Idk we're just talking about ss right now

Souter Silds

[analog lily]

do you mean not talking about sealed siblings?

[nimble pebble]

Not if I have anything else to say about it

[shy kiln]

No Shaman Stone better than Sealed Siblings

[analog lily]

sealed siblings is far superior

[proud vale]

Lol that Garama is actually good

[wintry mountain]

I cant post most likely any sprite in silksong you can think of, just say it and if i have it I will post it

[shy kiln]

No!!!!!!

[analog lily]

hmm, any? what about the caravan

[shy kiln]

Used root cry specifically bc WL would be sad knowing all 3 children of hers are in black egg

[analog lily]

hmm, well that's sad but the truth is that Shaman Stone is far worse than Sealed Siblings

[nimble pebble]

The third favourite game here will be Slime Rancher

[serene chasm]

Hornet isnt her kid

[analog lily]

and your 2nd and 1st are?

[wintry mountain]

I don't think I have that one, sorry, although I'm not very familiar with what it is so I could check again if you tell me what it is.

[proud vale]

Slime rancher is pretty great ngl, but you just wait till you can actually play OW pillow

[analog lily]

like the flee caravan

[nimble pebble]

Oh we're talking about the server and it's quite clear what it likes

[shy kiln]

Don’t you know about the theory that Hornet was birthed by Herra, raised By WL and trained by Vespa

[nimble pebble]

I will enjoy both

[analog lily]

oh the server, well that explains is then

[serene chasm]

Yes, but thats not officially canon so it doesnt count

[analog lily]

well step kid

[shy kiln]

Ok

[wintry mountain]

this thing? i think they are all seperated

[analog lily]

yeah but i meant the entire caravan

[nimble pebble]

Flea

[wintry mountain]

I dont think I have the whole thing sorry, any other sprites you want me to look up?

[shy kiln]

Still God Tamer talk in #hk-discussion so still am going to stay here

[analog lily]

nah that's fine, just a weird test

[serene chasm]

We're the cooler #hk-discussion anyways

[analog lily]

what is there to talk about? Just spam/pogo on the beast

[shy kiln]

Ok, then go and say it to them

[analog lily]

yeah ok then

[wintry mountain]

[hollow sedge]

pretty much every year theres a september direct

[proud vale]

Ah sure

[hollow sedge]

another xenoblade game is "rumored" to be coming as well, it kind of lines up

[serene chasm]

The Septembirect

[wintry mountain]

This menu looks like a nail in itself, I think thats kinda the point tho

[serene chasm]

Yup. It changes due to having different crests equiped

[nimble pebble]

Looks like a spike

[analog lily]

ahh the september direct, what nonsense

[nimble pebble]

Wasn't there one of the Hud Crest changes in the Edge Magazine

[wintry mountain]

sittin

[serene chasm]

invisible bench

[mortal grove]

hi

[wintry mountain]

smave 🤤

[lapis oyster]

Silksong?

[shy kiln]

What? Wait is this because the mechanism system?

[serene chasm]

The current theory is that they change based on the crest you are using and with specific tools

[shy kiln]

Yeah seems likely, or maybe it changes depending on your area?

[lapis oyster]

Silksong

[serene chasm]

unlikely. The same hud appears in multiple screenshots/areas

[wintry mountain]

smave

mossfly 🤤

[shy kiln]

Then it maybe bc the crests and tools, yeah

[serene chasm]

Smave is adorable. If anything happens to him I will kill everyone here, and then myself

[mortal grove]

Idontnlike fhat drooling dace dm9te

thats suggesging yourr gknna eat smave and an innocsnr mossfly

[wintry mountain]

whos gonna tell curly that smave is an enemy

[serene chasm]

“You’ll see the HUD frame is a different shape, specifically the backing, and then those backings are sort of interactive relative to the Crest that you’re using. So your attacks will change, and your healing can be modified and whatnot – but they also have functions to them.”

-Ari quote from the EDGE article

[mortal grove]

i wonder if hou can overcharm but tool

[serene chasm]

Good knight

[analog lily]

[frank sparrow]

im alive when everyone gone to die

how sad

[serene chasm]

Just temporarily dead

[mortal grove]

coma or sleep

[warm bone]

Coma is just big sleep

[serene chasm]

Coma until ss

[pallid flare]

death is even longer sleep

[frank sparrow]

still dead

[fiery coral]

[frank sparrow]

[mortal grove]

although fleas are terrible the flea petting emote never fails to make me laugh

[fiery coral]

[grim forge]

I like the name unique

[valid sable]

very unique name

[neat ginkgo]

Do you think fireb0rn will like fleas or he will ignore them like he do with grubs

[mortal grove]

not that flea pet that one is

aluo fest soon

[bleak scarab]

grubs > fleas

[olive bobcat]

I was gonna talk about post-Omori thoughts but that's off topic for this hour

[mortal grove]

Theyre both terrible

[bleak scarab]

but gub

[proud vale]

Post-omori?

[mortal grove]

Little dsvils

[bleak scarab]

you finished omori?

[olive bobcat]

I got 100% in Omori, finishing it on a main route

[mortal grove]

i have 9k pings on one server

[olive bobcat]

Got a good 4 sobs at least in that run

[proud vale]

Oh nice job dude, I was attempting hikkioomori route but the grind is longgg

[olive bobcat]

The grind was long but it was fun

[bleak scarab]

I thought omori was pretty gud

the fanbase scares me tho

[olive bobcat]

Anyways imma retreat into my DMs of solitude now

[proud vale]

Yeah intense fanbase for sure

[bleak scarab]

definetly, though if someone in hk server mentions it I will talk bout it for a bit

[mortal grove]

lets talk about the fanbase

@bleak scarab

[proud vale]

Yep lets do it

[bleak scarab]

yea

its pretty intense, in some ways reminds me of UT

but not as bad

[proud vale]

Oh yeah, definite UT vibes, but I think that's what they were going for

[bleak scarab]

the shipping for me is pretty uhhhhhh
I tend to ignore it tho

[rapid topaz]

what is UT?

[warm bone]

thats usually how it is, isn't it

[warm bone]

[rapid topaz]

oooh yeah obviously

also from what I've seen so far, Idk if I should play Omori

I'm not sure that's a style of gameplay I like

[analog lily]

wait what is Omori? Is that like a new game or something?

[warm bone]

the gameplay is bad, but if you don't play games for the gameplay its story is good.

[bleak scarab]

idk man HK fandom is one of the few fandoms im actually regular in and dont just lurk

[rapid topaz]

okay that's important to note then. I tend to like games for stories too

thx

[mortal grove]

i am not in alot of fandoms

Im only in 2 lol

dst and hk

[bleak scarab]

I sometimes talk with sum marvel fans

only because I wanna talk about the mcu tho

[mortal grove]

i do play other games but im onky active in 2

[bleak scarab]

one thing good I can say about the hk fanbase is its pretty welcoming to new people

[rapid topaz]

No I think Omori came out a little while ago. Not sure when, probably few monthes

[bleak scarab]

atleast in my experience

[bleak scarab]

I think like december last year

[warm bone]

yes

[bleak scarab]

christmas

[copper knot]

the gameplay is actually good

[warm bone]

turn based combat games should have become obsolete a long time ago

[copper knot]

by your logic pixelated games should be obsolete a long time ago because the first game ever made is pixelated

[warm bone]

naw pixel games can be fun, turn based combat is not

[copper knot]

so by your logic, pokemon is bad?

[warm bone]

yes

[copper knot]

[warm bone]

I think pokemon is very bad

[copper knot]

ok look just because its not your cup of tea doesnt mean it should be obsolete

[warm bone]

well, turn based combat games were first implemented as a way to simulate combat because older systems could not handle actual combat. Now that they can I think it should be replaced with something that can at least keep me engaged.

[copper knot]

same with pixelated games bro, games in the past were pixelated because old devices cant handle more pixels

[bleak scarab]

I think the strong points of omori is its story and art

I cant rlly comment on gameplay since I only watched a full silent playthrough

[copper knot]

but that doesnt mean pixelated games are bad, its cool

[warm bone]

so you hate pixelated games I am guessing

because I have already said that I don't mind them

its not like it becomes an anchor that drags my experience to the depths of boredom

[copper knot]

all im saying is your argument against turn based games can be used to be against pixelated games, which you are not against at. which contradicts

[analog forge]

no, turn based games were first implemented to allow greater strategic depths

[warm bone]

cause graphics don't effect gameplay

[analog forge]

video games have ALWAYS been able to handle action and platforming and shooting and slashing.

[warm bone]

and I don't really care about graphics

[analog forge]

just look at the origanal legend of zelda for instance.
turn based strategy was never about console power, and to say it is is fucking absurdity.

[copper knot]

im not saying pixelated games are bad, i have a fucking undertale pfp
all im saying is that your argument against turn based games can be used to be against pixelated games
and uhh dude, im sorry to say but a game that is pixelated is much different than an HD game

[analog forge]

its ok to not like genres of video games but dont fucking make up shit to justify your biases

[warm bone]

your only point seems to be that pixel games are bad as well, but I've already explained why that's not the case so I don't really see how you're trying to convince me

[analog forge]

NO.
their point is that the same fucking arguement applies, as a way to show that your basis is flawed

[copper knot]

and also graphics do actually effect gameplay because the main thing you use when playing games is your eye
imagine if hollow knight looks like this, would you even enjoy it?

ijones said it perfectly

[analog forge]

(and thats not even mentioning the fact that the basis is an outright lie)

[copper knot]

thank you jones

[warm bone]

not really
for instance lets take enter the gungeon for example
its a bullet hell and, if I choose so, I could add a texture pack which removes the pixelized art style while keeping the gameplay the same
it would be just as fun as with the pixelated graphics because the gameplay remains intact

[copper knot]

but would the experience be the same? no

if every block in minecraft is round, that would change the entire game

[warm bone]

also yeah, if the gameplay remained the same and just as readable it would be the same experience gameplay wise

[stuck pawn]

How advanced and realistic graphics are doenst matter, how good it looks matters, same with turn based combat

[copper knot]

gameplay =/= experience

[warm bone]

gameplay = experience

[mortal grove]

i dont feel its fair to compare gungeon with minecraft cause i feel the main appeal isnt the fact gungeon is pixel

[stuck pawn]

I like chess, undertale and into the breach, but dislike pokemon for example

[warm bone]

a better comparison would be dowloading a lower res texture pack, which I have in the past, and, yes, it is the same experience

[mortal grove]

but i do agree with you i just dont see it as a fair comparison

[copper knot]

im just making an argument about that graphics affect gameplay

[copper knot]

if you install a texture pack that turns all blocks in minecraft into amogus, it will change the experience of the game, even if the core gameplay is the same

[warm bone]

naw it would still be minecraft in its core, so the same (but better (cause amogus))

[copper knot]

as an artist and designer, trust me when i say graphics influence how we view games

like for example: do you know the color red makes you hungry?

do you know that yellow is the color that stands out the most out of every color?

game designers usually use colors to visualise a lot of stuff, even if you dont realise it

theres a reason why a lot of corrupted beings in game uses purple, because its an unnatural color

[bleak scarab]

thats why yellow makes such a appearence in horror (little nightmares coraline etc)

[warm bone]

it sure does, and I am not saying that a great artstyle can't enhance my experience, but what I care about in a game is gameplay first and foremost. If the gameplay is fun and everything is readable then it does not matter to me what texture pack I am using.

[copper knot]

and it does change your view, imagine if hollow knight's infection is red, you will 100% have a different experience

[warm bone]

same gamplay so the same **to me **

[copper knot]

your experience does actually change the gameplay

[warm bone]

you mean graphics?

I don't see how having a different experience with a game can change the gameplay itself

[mortal grove]

i like the color yelllw

[copper knot]

ok

every game has its own core gameplay
but every single person has its own experience with it
your experience shapes on how you view the gameplay, even if its the same to the core

experience and gameplay isnt the same, but experience influences your own playstyle

[warm bone]

if the gameplay is the same, my enjoyment is unaffected
its simple

[mortal grove]

i feel despair everytime i check my servers because jack stares and points at me

[bleak scarab]

yellow symbolizes happiness and hope but also caution and warning of danger it also contrasts the most with black I think

so many horror games use it

just a cool lil fact for ya

[mortal grove]

omg! wasps are black and yellow

[copper knot]

i hope you realise that your brain subconsciously changes your experience without you knowing it based on the game's graphics

[warm bone]

if my experience is based on gameplay then it does not effect my experience

[copper knot]

its impossible to have your experience 100% based on how the gameplay works unless you are a robot dude

[mortal grove]

idk i like my games to have a perfect balance of graphics and gameplay

[bleak scarab]

same

[copper knot]

i agree too

[mortal grove]

play rain world

[copper knot]

[warm bone]

I guess I am a robot dude
literally some of my favorite games have pixel art bruv
celeste
everhood

[bleak scarab]

tbf celeste is a very pretty game

[copper knot]

im... not saying pixelated games are bad

[warm bone]

that was literally your argument this entire time

[copper knot]

celeste and everhood are pretty games with thought put in the pixel artwork

[bleak scarab]

I dont think aki were saying pixelated games are bad, they are telling the way your present your argument also applies to pixelated games

[copper knot]

top hatter is correct

on the graphics argument, i dont mean pixelated games have bad art bro

[mortal grove]

miscommunication strikes again

[copper knot]

im an artist and i find pixel art to be pretty

[warm bone]

my argument is that turn based games should have become obsolete, I don't see how that applies at all with pixelated graphics

[copper knot]

..did you even read my arguments..?

i swear my god

[stuck pawn]

I don’t think they should become obsolete but they should evolve, just like how celeste would not have been possible on a nes

[copper knot]

it feels like im arguing with a brick wall

[stuck pawn]

And gaming, please read better

[warm bone]

yeah, I should have said evolve, because some games, like undertale, do turn based combat well. It keeps my attention by making me actually play the game.

what I mean is the type of combat where it is like
press a press a press a press a
I win

[copper knot]

lets go back to the original argument
you said omori bad because turn based
but personally? i find omori's turn based combat to be fun

the plus about a turn based combat is that you have time to strategize

[signal crag]

That sounds more like the type of thing you do in a quick-time-event section

[warm bone]

I said its combat is bad, not the game, cause the story, from what I've seen, is pretty good.
there's just only so much you can do with combat from rpg maker

[copper knot]

im tired of this argument man

i just got back from work

[warm bone]

same, this is like the third time I've had it

[nimble pebble]

Bruh

No one told me I had to pick Dialogue options in Celeste

[warm bone]

just don't pick the one that ends the conversation and you'll go through all of them

[nimble pebble]

Nvm I get to ask both

[proud vale]

Celeste is great game

[nimble pebble]

[mortal grove]

cleete

issa good game

[nimble pebble]

The Dialogue keeps Branching

I don't want to pick the one that ends up ending the dialogue

I think I did it while getting all Dialogue options

Though Theo said to go to sleep instead of Madeleine so idk if that's really a missed opportunity though, that would have probably ended the conversation

Was I supposed to fail the Feather mini game in the reflection?

[copper knot]

i think so

[frank sparrow]

gimme games to play

i got money that i yeeted from my dad

[warm bone]

outer wilds

[nimble pebble]

Celeste

Blasphemous

Slime Rancher

[frank sparrow]

slime rancher i have and have completed

[nimble pebble]

Islanders

[nimble pebble]

Based

Don't Starve

[frank sparrow]

dont starve i have as well

[nimble pebble]

Unbound Worlds apart

Would you care for my upcoming games list

[frank sparrow]

i would thank you

[copper knot]

amogus

[icy horizon]

I have a pretty good game.
It doesn't have a story mode tho.

[remote pivot]

Hyper Light Drifter is great

[frank sparrow]

gimme all the games

[copper knot]

games i recommend uhhhh i like terraria

[icy horizon]

If you like Just Shapes & Beats, then I recommend the game Project Arrhythmia.

So far it's only the workshop that's fully featured

[nimble pebble]

Bear and Breakfast
Deaths Door but that's already out
Wizard with a gun
Cult of the Lamb
Splatoon 3
BOTW 2

And many more I can't think of

[copper knot]

what about songsilk

[warm bone]

carrion is good but very short

[nimble pebble]

Songsilk is not ready and the ones listed have release dates

[fiery coral]

Portal, Manifold Garden, Abzu, Return of the Obra Dinn, Hitman, Souls trilogy, Bloodborne, Sekiro, Outer Wilds

[warm bone]

yeah souls 3 is great

[fiery coral]

Aside from the big AAA stuff

Like RDR 1 and 2, Assassin's Creed, Witcher, Skyrim, etc. (the more well known ones )

[warm bone]

SKYRIM ADDED FISHING

[fiery coral]

Ooh, and Fez

[fiery coral]

[copper knot]

oh yeah i might also need game recommendations

cheap ones ofc im poor

[icy horizon]

I once again recommend Project Arrhythmia

It's basically Just Shapes & Beats but cheaper and with more colors. It also has a level editor

[pallid flare]

you already played omori right

[warm bone]

Abzu is very underrated, though it is just kinda a glorified aquarium.

which I like because fish are cool

by glorified aquarium I mean it did not really have much gameplay wise besides swimming with the fishies

[sacred stratus]

you guys know any good metroidvanias? (already played HK, Ori2, blasphemous, Axiom verge 1/2 and super metroid)

[frank sparrow]

i dont own it- but i know it

[hollow sedge]

dead cells

[sacred stratus]

not a metroidvania

[nimble pebble]

Ori isn't exactly a metroidvania it's linear

[frank sparrow]

well google looking like it exploded with games but imma look at them all see what catches my interest

[sacred stratus]

Ori 2 is much less linear than the first

[nimble pebble]

That's... the point it's a story game about sea exploration

[warm bone]

I said I liked it

[nimble pebble]

Never said you didn't

[sacred stratus]

but still... you guys know any metroidvanias I can try out?

[warm bone]

carrion

[sacred stratus]

how long is the game?

[warm bone]

very short

[sacred stratus]

hmm I finish games rather quickly

so it's probably not gonna entertain me for a lot of time

any other recommendations?

[warm bone]

uh

I guess super metroid

[sacred stratus]

I played the first half of the game but then my emulator stopped working (plus I need a better one since the binding options in the previous one were very limited)

other recommendations?

[warm bone]

I heard guacamelee was good, haven't played that one tho

[vernal python]

have you tried Dandara?

[sacred stratus]

yes I think I'm near the end but I'm stuck on a boss I really don't enjoy fighting

[sacred stratus]

fantastic game btw

8/10 would recommend

[vernal python]

same

[sacred stratus]

what boss are you stuck on?

[blazing loom]

guacamelee 1 & 2, maybe sundered

[vernal python]

i don't remember the name of it

[sacred stratus]

I've seen sundered and I don't enjoy the artstyle but guacamelee sounds pretty fun

[sacred stratus]

is it like a turret that you destroy by going around in a large arena and destroying eyeballs?

[vernal python]

yea, it's that thing

[sacred stratus]

lmao same that thing is fucking trash

[blazing loom]

guacamelee have nice combat mechanics

[sacred stratus]

ever got to that golden area?

[nimble pebble]

Bruh that chase sequence was long

[sacred stratus]

sounds nice but how long is the game?

[vernal python]

not sure, it's been a while since i played it

[sacred stratus]

what are you talking about?

[sacred stratus]

that's ok, there's this golden area I don't know how to get to currently the only place I can get to is that fucking boss

who the fuck thought that going around in an arena full of basic enemies and a couple of mini-bosses dashing through eyeballs is fun

[vernal python]

yes, you can either fight the boss or 'repeat the cycle', grind money for all upgrades and try again

[sacred stratus]

what are you talking about?

[blazing loom]

turbo edition add some areas to the base game, I think it's somewhere between 12-15 hr maybe more if you do everything

[rotund sentinel]

ok how does dying work? cuz before shade existed now what?

[vernal python]

after you defeat the Eldar boss, you can fight this Tormenta guy, but there is an option the reset Eldar

well, nevermind actually

[sacred stratus]

I have no idea who these bosses are

[vernal python]

I didn't remember either, I just googled the names

[sacred stratus]

well thx bcs I found a path I didn't take before and now I have an additional heal

[tall hinge]

[fringe swift]

one second before disaster

[dusty nimbus]

Meet Hornet and her trusty sidekick Lace shoe

[tribal merlin]

lace "mozzarella" shoe

or is she actually onigiri

[orchid rune]

Imagine hornet just uses lace weapon to perpel herself into the hair

[viral pivot]

I think its more a religious outfit

[wispy fable]

ive just watched the reveal trailer

and i just noticed that the mask in the background here kinda looks like herrah

but isnt it a distant kingdom so how is she there

[tribal merlin]

it's an npc not a mask

weaver breh

[wispy fable]

oh

[spare elbow]

Ey we had any news yet?

Understandable, have a nice day all.

[coarse leaf]

New Heroes?
Isn't it just 1 new hero 'Hornet'
So there are more heroes than Hornet?

[tall hinge]

?sspsa

[rotund sentinel]

yes. i did

[marsh cypress]

It's the same but with a cocoon instead of a shade

[rotund sentinel]

Ohhh

[mortal grove]

then how do you not know lol

[rotund sentinel]

i forgor i think.

[marsh cypress]

It has been 2 years

[spark pine]

It sure has

Well to be fair I hadn’t even played Hollow Knight till like late 2019

Fair fan. I know

why did it send twice

[last oyster]

So what do we think are the chances it'll come in 2021?

[cerulean sable]

2022 or bust

[night hull]

When is the next nintendo direct

[formal karma]

zero

[tall hinge]

it was rumoured and leaked to be sometime in september but we dont know if thats real

[night hull]

Nice

When will they announce exact time?

Week before? Day before? Second before?

[tall hinge]

millisecond before

[sacred stratus]

announcing the next nintendo direct low%

[bleak scarab]

NOW

[sweet lotus]

a Nintendo Direct could be announced any time

but please, don't get your hopes up about Silksong

cause we are on the way to Metroid Dread\

[last oyster]

Well HK was announced a few weeks before so probably a month or so out because of marketing etc

But there really is no way to know

[spark pine]

I think there’s still a slight chance of getting a realise date this year. Maybe.

Not an actual release tho

[last oyster]

Yeah just the date

It's just crazy they've had about just under 5 years of development (probably around 3 or so full time) and we still don't even have an idea of when it could plausibly release

I understand that scope creep expanded the game by an unprecedented amount, and they don't want to announce it until it's fully ready, but still

[craggy fjord]

honestly it makes sense considering there's only 3 people in the team and they probably dont wanna spoil anything

[formal karma]

2.5 full time, but yea

[tribal merlin]

and before they went full time it was planned as a "$5 smol game thing" (Leth) so don't expect too much from the time before they decided to make it into a full blown game

[craggy fjord]

its only 2.5 full time?? then im kinda confused why people are even complaining that we dont have a release date yet

[tribal merlin]

people buy internet to complain

no surprise there

[formal karma]

they also normally count from hollow knight's release date like TC weren't updateing the game and porting

[tribal merlin]

yeah in that time period I basically only see Ari having done some work on SS that was relevant in the long run

[last oyster]

Yeah nah that's fair

To be honest though I don't think too many people are actually upset with TC

It's more just a general frustration with the fact that there have been no direct updates from them for a long time

[formal karma]

there's a very vocal minority, i would say

[last oyster]

Yeah

Which isn't very fair, considering the size of the team

[formal karma]

the people who are all "omg where's ma silksong?" but then also never heard of the riddle reveals baffle me the most

[last oyster]

Yeah

[craggy fjord]

riddle reveals?

👀

[tribal merlin]

timing

[last oyster]

Probably because they aren't very, like, known much about (the riddle reveals I mean)

[last oyster]

Just a bunch of riddles Leth said about SS

[formal karma]

people say that- but gaming sites reported on them... i dunno man

[last oyster]

Yeah fair

Not really sure to be honest

[craggy fjord]

where

[last oyster]

Guess some people like to complain

On this discord I believe

[formal karma]

in announcements, they're more than a year old

scroll up until you see spoiler tags

[fiery coral]

riddles weren't exactly high profile so yeah it's understandable

[last oyster]

Also the fact that they are a year old does frustrate people

[formal karma]

maybe it was just me that got several different google alerts for riddles that news sites reported on- damn you depression rectangle

[craggy fjord]

oo thanks

[fiery coral]

they're also the reason why people come to the Discord with "any news?" and stuff like that because the server gets them first/exclusively

[formal karma]

well in that instance, yes

[fiery coral]

yeah I didn't get a single one of those

[formal karma]

so, wait, the RIDDLES are the reason this place is lame, didn't see that coming 😛

[tribal merlin]

riddles were near the steam placeholder "release" date

so a lot of people died inside when it didn't release after

[last oyster]

Yeah

Look I hope SS releases soon but it also shouldn't be a no mans sky scenario

Where it's rushed and ends up being buggy as hell

[formal karma]

it... can't be a no man's situation

[last oyster]

Well thats the hope

[tribal merlin]

NMS slammed into the ground because of the expectations the CEO created with regular interviews and updates, so SS can't be that

[last oyster]

Yeah fair

[formal karma]

yea, literally the exact opposite situation, lel

[tribal merlin]

if the CEO had just shut the fuck up then people wouldn't have been so angry

[last oyster]

But even though there isn't much interviews the hype will be extremely high upon release date

[formal karma]

also there's no publishers making silksong release, so it won't be a cyberpunk situation either

[last oyster]

yeah

[formal karma]

yea, the smallest hints make silksong trend on twitter, its kinda nutty

[last oyster]

but it's not impossible to think that it could fall short to hollow knight

Unlikely, but possible

[formal karma]

it's certainly possible... but i think it's like rogue legacy 2- Silksong will be the same as hollowknight only imporved in every way

Rogue Legacy was awesome... and Rogue Legacy 2 is even awesomer

[last oyster]

yeah that'll probably be it

because the hk base game is almost perfect (subjectively) so they really don't need to change it

Just add to it

[formal karma]

Actually HK's lack of perfection is what convinces me Silksong will be better. There were pletny of lessons TC could have learned from HK

[last oyster]

Oh yeah fair

[craggy fjord]

if i was in team cherry i would just not release the release date, i would just not give any news and then just release the game one day

but i've also done 0 research into marketing so

[formal karma]

well.... that's terrible marketing but okay

it wouldn't likely HURT.... but also why do that anyway?

[craggy fjord]

i didn't mean that team cherry should do that, i just think it would be funny

[proud vale]

this is off topic but guys wtf why did I never hear about Marissa in HK

[last oyster]

They should at least give us a window of when they'll announce the date

Hell, I'd be happy if they have another blog post then go silent for 3 months

[formal karma]

yea? Marissa?

[last oyster]

Oh yeah what about her

She's the singing one right?

[proud vale]

I never freakin visited the pleasure house in my casual playthrough F

[real vector]

Because no pleasure house

there be cannibals there

||Wait so you never got millibillie's money back?||

[formal karma]

oh the bank........

[proud vale]

Nope apparently not

[last oyster]

Dang

It's like 50% interest or something

[ocean mulch]

I never went there in my later playthroughs

I was talking about direct

[cerulean sable]

actually wish the steam shortcut icon is the the Bell Sigil of Pharloom

whereas Kings Brand was for HK

[formal karma]

that'd be neat

[alpine violet]

Wish Team Cherry would give us something already.

Not to become all religious but as they say patience is a heavenly virtue and we must not be led into the temptation of becoming angry at devs

[tribal merlin]

also they're definitely not gonna start working faster just because we behave like insufferable knobheads

[upbeat marlin]

I'd much rather be drowned in content than have a unfinished game

Polishing the game is much more important than people give it credit for

[foggy patio]

will there be beta of silksong on steam?

[tribal merlin]

no

[upbeat marlin]

No

[foggy patio]

ok

[upbeat marlin]

Unfortunately

[foggy patio]

yes

[upbeat marlin]

I would love to fight lace

Over and over and over again just to hear that beautiful soundtrack

[tribal merlin]

and you can
in the finished game

[foggy patio]

me too

[foggy patio]

yes

[tribal merlin]

a public beta would just spoil everything accessible in that beta all over the internet

[upbeat marlin]

The only thing I get impatient about is the ost

Once silksong comes out I will start worshipping Christopher Larkin as a god a" higher being" if you will

[upbeat marlin]

No not that Christopher Larkin

[tribal merlin]

he kinda looks like the knight tho

[upbeat marlin]

Wait what are you smoking

[foggy patio]

How long did it take to do hollow knight?

[upbeat marlin]

3 years

I think

[signal crag]

at some point they had to switch engine
not sure how much it delayed the game tho

[upbeat marlin]

I heard when they switched it made it much easier to develop the game

[foggy patio]

So it could come out at the end of this year or in 2022, because they have more people and they have more experience I think

[foggy patio]

oh

[upbeat marlin]

I'm guessing by march

[tribal merlin]

they don't have more people tho they're still 3, just the 3rd one got switched

[olive bobcat]

SS fans

[foggy patio]

mmmh

2022

[last oyster]

I think theres a chance it could be October-December announcement

[tribal merlin]

we should send autograph requests to that guy

[signal crag]

1 game designer, 1 artist, 1 coder

[mortal grove]

[olive bobcat]

[signal crag]

[foggy patio]

[mortal grove]

Omg cheesoid face reveal?!

[tribal merlin]

[upbeat marlin]

Christopher Larkin will not be disrespected like this

[mortal grove]

Omg shandow face reveal?!

[charred garnet]

You mean the asian man?

[olive bobcat]

[rapid topaz]

[foggy patio]

Crowsworn will come out a lot after silksong, right?

[olive bobcat]

Christoper Larkin, the famous actor

[mortal grove]

You

[upbeat marlin]

An actor

[charred garnet]

Who knows?

[rapid topaz]

I have no clues, maybe before

[mortal grove]

shandow cant remember who he is

[olive bobcat]

Yeah idk why it took you so long to get that

[foggy patio]

ok

[mortal grove]

i like your pfp

[signal crag]

Leth guesses it will come out after Silksong, since it comparing a developed game by a few years already, to another that's still in early dev i believe.

[mortal grove]

I thought it was grimmchild for z sec

[signal crag]

take that as you prefer

[formal karma]

crowsworn is slated for release dec 2023... but it could come out later

i kinda think that silksong will be out long before that

[rapid topaz]

also sorry but what's your profile pic supposed to be ? looks like a weird wide Kirby or smth

ooooh

[mortal grove]

i think its the guy that sings super spy

[signal crag]

"We are very much aware that games take an exceptionally long time to develop when everything is done right, and that's why we've projected the completion date to December 2023 (generously). There is a high likelihood that Crowsworn may be completed before that, but we want to ensure the game is the best it can possibly be before we launch. Let's Go!"

[foggy patio]

oh ok

[upbeat marlin]

Is swear to God if ss doesnt come out next year

[formal karma]

then what?

[rapid topaz]

who's Mafoso

[mortal grove]

https://youtu.be/ochbKdK4ZT8

[upbeat marlin]

Then I'll be too committed to school stuff by then

[formal karma]

well, TC waits for no one

[signal crag]

well, i guess they have at least considered how much the stretch goals would add to the overall development?

but as usual, we'll see how things develops over time

[mortal grove]

ᵢₘ ₐₙ ᵢₙₜₑᵣₙₐₜᵢₒₙₐₗ SUPEEEEERRR SSPPPPYYYYYYYYYYYY

[upbeat marlin]

Well gamers have the attention span of goldfish so we really at least something to fuel our voracious appetite

[formal karma]

i dunno I am usually really focused...

[upbeat marlin]

FOR NOW

I don't know if I actually have ADHD with the level of impatience I have

[mortal grove]

do u mean replier or repeller

[formal karma]

if its a question, then the answer is usually no

just like how 'liking things being in order' doens't mean you have OCD

[upbeat marlin]

Repeller but I admire the attempt at humor

[mortal grove]

i was genuinely asking

[upbeat marlin]

I feel replying just makes the conversation flow more smoothly and it's easier to follow
