People have been saying Aluofest 2024 will be a return to its roots, what with it being the hundred-year-anniversary, but honestly it's gotten so taken over by greed and corporate incentive that I doubt it could ever return to the glory days
like not posting a game for 3 yrs
Maybe they are, but it is probably not even soon š¦
Before that, they didn't post a game for 4 years
Spoiler alert: It takes a long time for 3 people to make a game
People really donāt know that games take time
oh no doubt it is
Not making a full game every 3 months? Smh lazy devs
Aluofest
lol
Programming hornet's swing animation
i changed my "photo"
heard you can do lots with linux
think it's nice now
but seems daunting idk never tried
I wonder if anyone who uses linux would tell me what you could do with it
oh man i love this photo
instead of a yellow face right
i got claw
lmaoo bet its not this complicated but still funny
sudo install browser
oops, worng chat
Can we make #aluofest the first thread in this channel
We already had a thread
What the fuck
This is unfair
Yeah, I mean if we look at other games that had a lot of time in them and had a lot of effort we can see that it tracks with quality. Think BOTW, the mainline Mario games(most of them), ori and the blind forest, all of those games are great and maybe even genre defining and they took like 5-4 years to develop. Patience pays off in the games industry and even more so when talking about a small team like team cherry. The wait is annoying and long but it just guarantees the gameās quality
Can we make #aluofest the best thread in this channel?
can you simp yourself?
True, Im a lone worker and it took me 1 year just to make a fully polished game inside minecraft
Top 10 questions that keep me up at night

Se sabe algo de silksong ??? Pregunta serĆa :c
english only please
ĀæpĒŹollÉ uÉılÉɹŹsnÉ sı
i want this shit so bad
epic
tbh i wonder what hkh stuff exists on etsy. have never checked
ill check
i really want charms
i have a hatsune miku one and i
want
more
while i was retrieving my hatsune miku charm i fucking stepped on dog piss
an omen
We all
when the issue is with skill
dodging piss puddle skill issue
there is also a chance that the world ends tomorrow
100%
Im just saying we had directs in september before
So just speculating, I dont want to be annoying
yeah but who cares about directs?
release related news will most likely already be known if they're to be shown in a direct and that's what people are really interested in
chat ded
Silksong is gonna be great, I can't wait to get murdered as Hornet instead of getting murdered by Hornet
what if we kissed in deep docks š³
what if we kissed in god_final_boss_bench.png
Or it gets an extra mouth to fire projectiles out of, a la Jinpachi from Tekken 5
is it sequel or prequel?

We don't know
From what team cherry said in an interview, it is a sequel.
source
in terms of it being the second game, yeah
Other then that its unknown
It might be a sequel if you look at the weevers in hk.
The weevers could have ran out of hallownest due to the infection and got captured for pharloom.
But thinking about it, hornet used tools she aquired in pharloom in hk, the spike was crafted in pharloom thus it might be proof that ss is a sequel.
If hornet obtains the ability to craft the urchin spike ball from a npc or an item in pharloom that proves the fact that ss is a sequel to hk
4321 (371Ć136)
oki
It wouldn't make sense if hornet would have the spike balls before silksong, because you see almost no characters using a strange choice of weapon like this (pale lurker is the only one I think uses spike balls similar to hornet's)
the only place this strange weapon of choice would be viable is in Pharloom where everything is mechanically advanced.
Hmmm I didnāt think prequel discussion would last this long
discussing to cope with no ss
i mean there is literally no evidence either way
prequelist mindset has no basis 
same with sequelism š
alternate universe obviously
TC themselves, desc on youtube trailer, Hornet saying her usual tools are missing etc
and hornets usual tools are?
glock
the HK bossfight ones
TC purposefully say its a sequel as in second game, and this isn't hornet's first adventure... she was trained in usual tools
the only thing that comes to mind are those spikeballs in the second fight
i mean it's most likely a seuqel, but there's nothing saying its a sequel
how does hornet forget how to sprint and do flips and shit after getting to the moss grotto in pharloom
dementia
Steam
or maybe cus after leaving hallownest you go dumb mode and forget stuff
how were the hollow knight and the player the same size and only the hollow knight grew? its a game...
yea, Nosk, but TC were careful to say that its a sequel in terms of second game, leading to ambiguity
Ha was trained
Id rather say bc she was traped in a seal of binding whole time
hornet is half higher being it's implied that leaving doesn't affect her
So she lost her powers
Probably from whatever the cultists did to her
as in "the next game"
you cant be half higher being
well than its just dementia
higher being is a status not genetic marker
i'm not a prequelist but seriously
Maybe in world of hollow knight it isnt
Tho i dont think so
well hornet is obviously not as powerful as the pale king right?
Yeah sheās a half-breed between a literal god and a normal bug
isn't that a demigod
Hornet may very well be a higher being, or become one in Silksong, but genetics doesnt automatically make you "above all others" if she doesnt have some exclusive godlike power shes just a fancy spider with a long lifespan
Yes
yeah so a lesser higher being
not all higher beings are equal
no demigod status exists in that universe
not yet
but they all exist above normal bugs
stop elderC'ing me
How do you know all that
Do you work for team cherry
get off your alt ari
we discuss this all day in lore. HB is defined as a being that exists above all others.
you cand half exist above all others
existinh
cand
I mean sheās aware of her presence in godhome, a trait only shared by Grimm and his nightmare counterpart who is under the power of a higher beinh
you can exist above all normal bugs but below other higher beings
and just because you can beat people up better doesn't mean you're a higher being
That makes you a Higher being
So Iām assuming Hornet has higher being level powers that havenāt been shown yet
if you qualify as above all bugs youre a HB, congratulations
fair assumption, i think so as well
i guess a regular sized human in the world of hk could count as a higher being
we have no size refs so they could be human sized for all we know
there is a bunch of huge amonite fossils scattered about
Hey dont delete that
I didnāt even have time to elderC that

so? doesnāt take place in the human area.
Bardoon, Grubs, Marrissa, Moths, Marmu, dirtcarvers. these guys dont even make sense amongst themselves for sizes dont ovethink the rest of the game
Its a fictional world
its a world that has no sky- there's literally nothing about it that needs to relate to ours
no way
it has a sky but we haven't seen it yet and by it i mean the true surface
and i guess the dreamrealm sort of has a sky background
It would be cool if there was a giant ant unit
b i g a n t
In deep docks or wherever ants are
does this dude on the right count?
this seems like an ant fortress
judging from the background
also there is probably a second shot of this area somewhere in the trailer with like levers and shid
Yeah Iām assuming that area is where you fight Carmelita
i assume that there is also gonna be a colloseum there
I think you will get some dope ability when you defeat Carmelita
since this seems like a mantis village equivalent, and the concept with the Colosseum being located in the mantis village was dropped
Yes
you most likely fight carmelita after a gauntlet of regular ants in that room
like maybe hornet gets ambushed by the ants and put into a gladiatorial arena match
Coloseum of fools
or there is a room with a semingly regular bench where the floor collapses and you just fall into the arena mid match
I think someone will mention it
That they want to go battle there
Bc its known in other kingdoms aswell
this time there could be two different arenas or something
it would be cool to have both a more difficult late mid game arena and an considerably easier early game arena
Im in need of silksong
Christopher larkin should upload another sample
Or tc post something on twitter like : Hey, we are alive
eh
Really the only amount of news i want is maybe just something by the end of 2021 but really other than that I don't want too much news as it's basically just official spoilers
a progress check at the end of the year would be cool though
It is though
Not a major one
I mean posting a High Quality Moss Grotto wouldnāt be a spoiler
Uh, they did?
i still want those high quality official moss grotto and moss mother themes
Or Deep Docks
we do have high quality footage
like it's about time another soundtrack "sample" get released
Most footage, Iāve seen either thereās people talking or itās being drowned out by the game sfx

you seen this
This is the video that gets stolen and reposted over and over
Ah thereās some good footage
the enemies look sooo damn cool
there is a version of this without the watermark
i still dont understand how they screen recorded it
that doesnt answer the question at all
honestly i think that this footage is better https://youtu.be/ZqFG_h7kXEg

nevermind i have 5 braincells
Happens to the best of us
but how did they screen record it
the booths probably had a recording option
so that the gaming news sites or whatever could have footage that isn't shit
https://youtu.be/acBIdFBJoIU
like this got posted a bit earlier than those two
16 minutes of gameplay in a midgame area of Hollow Knight: Silksong with some upgrades unlocked, played on Nintendo Switch on the showfloor of E3 2019.
Did I wake back up in 2019?
It has always been 2019
the real silksong release date is june 12th 2020 but we are all just permanently stuck in 2019
Nooooo
2020 will never come
but if it was real then the six months before release would have been filled with trailers and blogposts
the nintendo treehouse crew was not wrong when they said that the game would be coming out soon
i just wish we wouuld get any news from devs about the state of the game
the state is yhat theyre working on it
all the news we have so far that it's not cancelled
well.. thats something i guess
oh i missed that
Any rumors or news from murky sources?
Yes, news tomorrow
Source: me
Pogg.
nice weather
Where's my Aluofest thread
the earliest that silksong can possibly release is in the middle of april 2022
what conspiracies are we cooking on the menu today
Canceled.
aluo you promises friends and fakes where are they 
Aluofest can't be cancelled, it's been going on for 10 years
What did the mods do this time
Nothing, just noting that 90% of serious predictions are all exactly 5-7 months away from the date of the prediction
Aluomogus.
Fake
where have the friends gone
They'll be here eventually
Maybe.
That looks so sexy
no way

Another silksong question for ya'll:
do you think there will be "dreamers" is silksong, by which I mean you need to complete three ( or more ) quests, and then you can reach the peak?
no i hope not
you think it will be more of a get to the top, the end?
Maybe those doors or something
The ones with the weavers on them or whatever
I think the dreamers are good gameplay wise
They give you general directions of where to go and explore and give the games are more structured progression, that's not necessarily a positive but I think it's better for new players
I think the closest thing to "dreamers" are the magical big bells Hornet hits to do their magical bell thing.
This is my dreamer OC, ŃŠ¾Š½Š½Š° Š¾ŃŠŗŠ¾Š²
The only difference between Hk and Ss is that the end of the game is not right at the start
So you don't really need dreamers to get players to explore
Are you 100% sure about that?
I think there may be more differences. Many of which we may not even be able to confirm.
Just a hunch 
needs more eyes
Idk why I said only difference
I just meant in the ways the game gets you to do stuff
Thereās also quests and stuff, so Silksong will probably have a more direct objective system.
It doesn't have eyes
needs more of those holes then
also why would there be dreamers in SS
im no loregod but ss isnt in before hallowsnest i swore
"It'd be a cool easter egg trust me bro"
Not literal dreamers but a mechanic similar to them
why would i trust you youre piss coloured in that other server
I can see there being dreamer/like roles in Gilded City before the Citadel or something like that
ah yeah makes more sense
Citadel is midgame iirc so idk
maybe with like some funny weavers
i like those fellas
Can Leth pop in today and let me know that TC doesnāt have any blog post/announcements planned for the rest of the year?
thatās not something he does
We already have an event going on today, maybe tomorrow
whats the event
Aluofest
isnt it the first day of football season
my stepmom is excited abt that
Biggest SS event of the year
Aluo when do you get on the dunk tank
are you sure
Dunk tank will be skipped due to work
Noooo
Next year though
What about the frog toss
no dunk tank
worst event ever
I can probs do frog toss after I mow in a bit
And the robot fight?
That already happened
Aw fuck i missed it
is there an aluo plush in a rigged game
It wasn't that good this year don't worry
Did I miss the claw game
Claw game is during the whole event idk what you mean
Huh
the food here sucks so i ate the entire claw game
When's the Aluomorg Dollhouse event
i love dolls
such a yoinky sploinky
btw aluo you got any ss ocs
omg the switch console colours
He helps a gladiator from a circus or something by keeping the creatures in line
no wait thats green
is the long cane to ya yoink people
fake
bro no offense but the head looks like an upside down hornet and i cant unsee that
agony

Is this what Hornet looks like to you
yes
hornet but with a malignant brain tumour
hornet but if she was inbred
I had a dream where someone got an early copy of silksong and was making videos of it. he wasn't even playing as Hornet in it lol
stop copying my dreams plz
i had a dream where i forgor š
Shawn.
seamstress?
What on eatth
i can`t unsee it now

prove it
Silksong out yet? Nope. Okay see ya next week
tomorrow for sure š¤
we can safely expect a new silksong blogpost in early december this year
it's basically guaranteed
Lol I'm hoping something is said in next direct but I'm not counting on it
directs are a lost cause
Think there may be one next week
Bruh just announce a big title pls nintendo
Botw 2 info, mario odyysey 2, new smash fighter and silksong. Imagine that
it's way too early for any silksong news
We don't know when it'll be, so saying one date or time frame is more likely than another is just a blind guess anyway.
I will never understand why people are so confidently proclaiming that news can't happen tomorrow or soon. It can. Not likely, but not any less likely than any other day after.
why do you say that, POLTEL?
Iām assuming that the game is in a āyou can play it all the way throughā state, currently. But I do think that theyāre probably going to be releasing it with all the content that wouldāve been post-release if it were like HK.
I believe we are not getting any news on the way to Metroid Dread
So I think theyāre just adding more and more, basically. Although Iām sure thereās still stuff that needs polish.
Perhaps, but for HK you could play it all the way through without touching 50+% of the game
omb tammo sighting real
I think that's looking too much into it. Not sure if they would wait cause of that. Cause if you wait until that is released, people will be playing it. And how long do you wait for people to be done with it?
The existence of metroid dread does not preclude TC from publicizing their game
Thatās very true, but from what I understand thatās in part due to how the way they handled development. The same could be the case for Silksong.
Iām not gonna lie, as much as I want Silksong to come out soon, I do hope that it wonāt come out until Iām able to finish a playthrough of Metroid Dread. I just want to be able to dedicate my full attention to both games.
anyways silksong is probably gonna sell more copies than metroid dread
That does seem very likely, although Dread seems like it might be the best selling Metroid game, so weāll see.
Although I suppose if Dread does sell well, itāll probably get more people into metroidvanias, getting Silksong more attention as well.
also silksong has the benefit of being multi platform
and i know that a significant portion of the hk fanbase is gonna buy the game multiple times on different devices
Yeah, I know I will.
everyone
Cuando sale el silksong
uhh esta soon

Hello Curly
hi curly
Hey White and Pyro. How are you two?
Pretty alright. And you?
if there is gonna be a third hollow knight game it will probably take place in a hallownest taken over by the shadelord
i'm alright
I mean assuming the third game isnāt also meant to be played without playing the first two
team cherry probably wouldn't just leave the shadelord as an unresolved plotpoint
Not much there to resolve, really
Unless LoS decides to do some weird shit for no real reason
the main character literally becomes attuned with the god of gods and obliterates the radiance from existence
i gotta know what happens next
this seems like a cliffhanger for something unrelated to silksong
I mean... in DnM the Lord of Shades is in a similar position, and it just goes to the Abyss
I feel like if TC wanted to indicate that the same thing would happen, they would just show it
and thereās also the cliffhanger with THK
There's not much reason to believe that anything exciting would happen there either
Hallownest could have been totally reshaped by the shadelord by the time hornet leaves pharloom (if ss is a sequel)
Even if, for some inscrutable reason, the lord of shades did such a thing, we wouldn't see it in SS
Yeah that's probably saved up for the sequel game
Sequel game 
Hollow knight 3 if that will ever come out
I would prefer another new kingdom, if that should ever happen. Even if Hallownest were modified somehow, it would still be retreading old ground
And old lore
If they were going to do anything about Hallownest post-HK, imo another comic or something might be better
Hollow Knight : Zoteboat
Five Knights RPG
ngl that could be a cool side game
i just want to see the ancient kingdom
Five Knights at the White Palace
That took me way to long to get. ||Five nights at freddy's, right?||
LMAO,THEY FUCKING ADDED PLAY TIPS IN GLEAMLIGHT AFTER 1 YEAR
Wrong channel?
this is ss discussion?
sir. this is a Wendy's
oh,sorry
this is a channel for discussing silksong
shamanstone
"discussing" "Silksong"
i mean, yeah

I wonder if we'll threaten a chef to make us foods
why would hornet threaten anyone? She would just pay for the food.
its kinda ironic because most of the gleamlight mentions come from this channel lmao

Doesnt mean its the right channel. Also who cares about Gleamlight anymore.
who ever cared about gleamlight
touche
Gleamlight is the true successor of hollow knight
yeah from a lore standpoint I don't know why something would happen, but it definitely feels like TC is implying that this is going to lead to more than just what happened in DNM
the third games kingdom could be presented as a totally new one at first
but slowly accross the game it could be revealed that it actually is a corrupted version of hallownest
maybe TC would want to do a non-HK-related project after ss
sadly, I did literally everything I could my first time around. And then promptly went back and got all the achievements immediately following that. Nothing new to find, but the game is so fun and the atmosphere so wonderful and the music oh so nostalgic that it is very worth it to return to. Might wait until ss is announced so I can do that pseudo- marathon tho
then do rando
They said they.would like to do one
fearless fox
They already have copyright claimed the name fearless fox
So gonna get an npc into that game
most likely
but come on the third game in a franchise is always considered good endpoint
third game with quirell being playable then we good
if only quirell wasnt dead š
forge daughter spinoff when
qwop but its quirrel trying to swim
he didn't die
he went for a damm swim 
do you think it would be cool if Silksong had a new game+ or something
well.... he hasnt come back up in a while...

HE WENT FOR A DAMN SWIM
NO ONE CAN CHANGE MY MIND
kinda pointless honestly
ignorance is bliss
there should just be a bunch of lategame/postgame activities to do at most
I mean it really depends on how it differs
Indeed. He owed Sly money and is now sleeping with the fishes
NG+ in a metroidvania would be weird
you'd have to account for all the sequence breaking you would start off with
It's usually more for something like an RPG with a leveling and equipment system
I think the quest system they're adding to it is going to be something that keeps replayability going once you've finished it
like, there's always going to be a bunch of quests you can go and do, big monsters to hunt, etc. the quest board will always be full
Plus, the very nature of a second playthrough is, in a metroidvania, essentially a new game plus, since you know where abilities and whatnot are and can curate your run to do things in whatever order you choose
oof not NG+ again...
This is the first I've seen it come up
Yeah
The only things that could conceivably carry over are the boring things, like health, silk, damage upgrades, and those are the boring things
maybe a Master Quest style double enemy damage + flipped game map
that's what I am personally hoping Silksoul is......
Now that, I could see, but that isn't really a new game plus, it's just an increased difficulty
flipped game map?
Although idk how much flipping the map would really add
thats like, a mariokart thing
Well no
Best channel
debatable
it's a zelda thing, actually Wombat- twilight princess flips its map in Master Quest
ah that makes more sense.
we all know #hk-meme is the best channel
i've only ever played skyward sword, no other zelda games unfortunately
since link's left hand.. blah blah blah wii, blah
just don't let people tell you its garbage D:
or... i mean... let them?
SS is the only one I havent touched
Hello
doing great, just picking up some old games again and having fun that way
re-picked up Bioshock series, that was fun, farting around in Oxygen Not Included
two wildly different game types, I know, but that's just meeeee
Nice
Nothing wrong with having diverse tastes
Can I recommend Outer Wilds 
Nice
i wanna try that game where you're a dice orphan or something
in terms of new (to me) games i picked up Rogue Legacy 2 and Axim Verge
Ow discussion

Bioshock is great. And nothing wrong with playing different genres. Sometimes this server likes to think Metroidvanias are teh only type of game
see.............. i haven't seen anything to convince me to play Outer Wilds
Its good
yea... people say that.... but whyyyyyyyyyy
I don't suppose a wholehearted endorsement would do the trick 
I just can't really give a good pitch without spoiling stuff
Do you like exploration? Solving mysteries, SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!
mhmmm i can dig that i guess
i just didn't see any hooks when watching the trailer, i guess :S
it's on my wishlist, anyways

so, like, is it a 'level 1' find everything in that area and then move on to 'level 2' sort of gameplay? or is the world open?
It's completely open
Emphasis on completely
There aren't any typical compasses or guides
mhmmmmm
It's all up to the player to actually uncover stuff in the world to progress
Outer wilds is my game of the year for every year
^^^
There's nothing you can do that you can't do in the first 20 minutes of gameplay, it's just about figuring out how
And it's a very magical experience
WELL.... maybe do that when the boredom abyss opens up again
Outer wilds is the kind of game where saying or reading ANYTHING about the game spoils it
Like even the trailers are a spoiler
but for now, it's back to huffing farts in Oxygen Not Included....
The DLC for outer wilds is releasing on the 28th too soooo
well a new update for ONI releases this week š®
ok but you can roast marshmallows in outer wilds
Yo someone talkin outer wilds
okay, but you Dupes can die in tragic roof collapses and your other Dupes mourn them....
And ~~die horribly by forgetting to ~~wear a spacesuit
dupes can do that, too
you can also fill your base with irritating hydrogen gas because you forgot how to science
ok but can you propel yourself full speed into a planet
True
or better yet, fly into THE SUN
well, i guess not- space travel in ONI is about living
Autopilot be like
in OW it's about dying 
Death is inevitable in Outer Wilds
Dupes print out every 3 days, so its best not to continue murdering them
Wait Iām confused, what brought up outer wilds this time
someone asked what we're doing, and i mentioned games i played recently
and then the OW nerds begged me to play it š
Orange aint even here.....
Play it
The Outer Wilds community requires that you share the game with everyone you can, rule #1
next Boredom Circle, I will, almost 100% chance
what does that even mean Finch? just talk at people, telling them my various failure points?
yes
Mhmmmmmmmm
if someone hasn't played outer wilds, make them play outer wilds
by force if necessary
^^^
Tell you what. If my supervisor has to keep me home tomorrow...... I'll be playing it
I remember curly saying outer wilds was good, which is what got me to play
Pog, just don't watch any trailers or read the steam page, massive spoilers, also avoid the community feed
yay. I didnt know I was the one who convinced you to play it
I think it was your message yeah
I've bought 6 copies of Outer Wilds for other people not including my own, all of them loved it and 100% it
it was on sale at the time but it ended up costing total (including mine) like $120?
Wow
Finch confirmed as #1 Outer Wilds fan
Mobius Digital take my money
Crazy stuff
I am waiting patiently
worth it :bopbopcat:
Nice
as am I
Have you guys watched the trailer for it?
Sweet. I decided not to cause I didnt want anything spoiled. Im getting it anyways. Dont need a trailer to convince me
I saw it, looked awesome
I was watching the Annapurna Interactive thing and it popped up in there
Im always at work when those events are going on 
sadge
š
True
wrong
debate me now
Ill be honest idk if my laptop could handle it well so my loops were doublely long and it was kinda slow, but i still really enjoyed it
I can't wait for silksong to come out, I'll be able to play it on my brand new Rtx 3060 PC
idk what that is but it sounds good
did you get it at msrp?
nice. I wish I could find a 3000 series card. Though tbt, Im happy with my 1070 for now
I went big on my first PC
might as well
The exact specs are, 16gb ddr4 3000mhz, Ryzen 7 5800x, Rtx 3060, 1 TB SSD
nice nice nice
ooh r ppl talking abt PCs now
any new release date speculation?
nah
man it would be unfortunate if it releases 10.01.21
yeah, good thing that won't happen
January 10th has already passed
unless they're ||A M E R I C A N||
Imagine being American, couldn't be me ||
||
where aus gang?
its nearly 10:30am and i still wanna sleep
I'm American
Simo and Benji
As well as Ari, Wilbo, Jack, and Graig
No one else lives in Australia other than Team Cherry
yes, i am actually an alt of every team cherry member
they ate everyone else
thats how they got the brainpower to make hollow knight
I wanna start my own company
what will you do?
Those are the min specs needed
can I play ss on an atari 2600?
Only the 8bit version
Damn I gotta upgrade my PC if i want ray tracing for silksong 
New water effects look amazing in SS
Lily pad
Hornet looks like an alligator in that pic
Honesty, In my own personal opinion, I hope, I really, REALLY hope, like my absolute biggest hope is that silksong
agreed. I also hope that silksong
wait where did you get this photo?
I hacked the TC servers
Well nothing shows up in reverse image search
lol. Its just the water effect on VLC
Screenshot from a yt vid probably
Ah yeah makes sense lmao
Potentially the one where they play this part of Silksong
whats VLC?
Video player
ah i see
Happy Aluofest
I also hope that Silksong
Man. What if silksong
Oh yeah. that picture above is fake and not real in any way. If you believe it is, then god have mercy on your soul
cancel "culture" can suck my dick, more like the cutthroat culture
No. That one is very real.

Curly in ss confirmed?!
yes. Im in SS
I'm a dishwasher and I had to close, draw your conclusions
...other than that it was good
I feel for you. Sorry you had to close
I dont believe it
believe it
Hollow Knight just got dethroned from my #1 game spot so Silksong needs to come out and take it back
by what tho
Bloodborne
ohhh
Worthy winner I must say
@ mods. ban this fake fan

Hey Bloodborne is a top notch game
I'll have you know HK was never my favorite game 

But obv itās insane that HK can compete with games like Bloodborne when it was only made by 3 people
I have to admit something as well. Its not mine either. Top 3 for sure though
- Shadow of the Colossus
- Morrowind
- Hollow Knight
- Outer Wilds
- Half Life 2
They are, but man is it beautiful
Iām not sure
But I think the ending is really good right
My top 5:
- Bloodborne
- Hollow Knight
- God of War
- BoTW
- Ghost of Tsushima
Although I feel like Iām very heavily influenced by recency bias
Ive only played HK and Botw out of those. But Ive heard great things about the others
I honestly feel like whatever game Iām playing at the time is my favorite game if itās actually good
Like once fifa 21 is done installing its def gonna top the charts šÆšÆ
I feel like have the opposite problem. I almost never take a game off or add one to the list
I just hope Silksong can take a spot on the list
Im sure it will
Although having both Hollow Knight and Silksong in my top 5 seems very unfair to other games lol
- LittleBigPlanet 2
- Omori
- Hollow Knight
- Pokemon: Black 2
- Portal 2 or somethin
LBP 2 is fire
Best game I've ever played
People say Omori really hurts to play and they're not lying
Portal 2 is epic
Hopefully Omori comes to switch soon
Omori is veryyy long
Wheatley's betrayal hit me hard
But isnāt Omori more of a story than a game? Would I get the same experience just watching a playthrough?
Yeah I haven't played LBP2 in a while, but I probs won't so I keep the nostalgia
My longest run is like 20 hours
Not at all, I'd say you get connections to the characters through playing as them
I watched a full silent playthrough because im broke
Ah
Then those connections are what tear you apart inside
also yea
Oooo I just realized Elden Ring is prob gonna take a spot in my top 5
its more of a story
My top 5 will have 2 FromSoft games and 2 TC games
My connection to a certain female main character are what murder my feelings by the end
Fromsoft/TC collab when?
I want to respond to this, but 5 is so hard
i think you'd get a somewhat similar experience if you watch a silent playthrough, but i really do think the experience is elevated if you play it yourself
||She's just hanging out :)|| <--- no touchy omori spoiler
Whatās easier then, top 3 or top 10?
not biased at all dont look at my status
I saw that scene in game for the second time after like 80 hours of overall game time and it still managed to hit even harder
F
(By "that scene" I mean that cutscene)
Anything after 5 is just random games I like.
top 3
Anyways sleepy time goodnight
For me I think I can crucially pick my top 10, but then I have absolutely no idea
Good Knight, Aluo
Goodknight Aluo

goodknight Aluo 
sleep well
top 5/10 is too hard for me, I just have a no.1 favourite picked and that's about it 
Portal?
that favourite is Portal 2
Magik
Portal 2 is fantastic
I really gotta play portal 2
play it
I also really wanna play Nier Automata, but I also really donāt want to
it's pretty cheap on Steam almost all the time
Actually scratch everything I just said
Madden 19 best game ever š©
Also everyone with a ps4 if you havenāt played Bloodborne then what are you doing
Bloodborne is great
It took me a new game+ and picking the other ending for me to really decide how good it was
although I feel like the main story path dips somewhat in quality after Vicar Amelia
the DLC is 10/10 though
Kos is a bitch
In no order:
Hollow Knight
Super Mario 64
LittleBigPlanet 2
Resistance 2
Battlefield Bad Company 2
Destiny / Destiny 2
Flyff
Guitar Hero 3 Legends of Rock
Banjo-Kazooie
Mario Party 2
Subject to change, daily lol, I can't make my mind up
So many 2s
Lmao we said that in sync
I used to play so much guitar hero
But then on the final concert my game glitched half way through and erased all my data and I never played it again
Little big planet was really cool
I still think Infamous Second Son is one of the most underrated ps exclusives
That game is just so fun, although it is very short
I played the first Infamous but never the sequel or anything beyond that
I really should've though
Whatās crazy is the graphics on Infamous Second Son, it was a launch title for ps4 and has graphics as good as todayās games
Although itās a good thing, Iām a lil sad Ghost of Tsushima did so well, cuz now Sucker Punch probably isnāt gonna return to infamous
Ooh, I haven't heard about the Infamous series in a long time, is second son any good? I only played 1 and 2
Second Son is just pure fun
You get multiple powers and they are a lot more fleshed out
The story is really short though and nothing special
Put traversing Seattle with your powers is stupid fun
Did they add it on pc? This game is just godly when it comes to having fun
I wish i had a ps4 its one of those things im looking up to play when i get one
grimm game when
GrimmSong
ScarlettFire
Ay yo we talking about best games? 
i think they were
of course, ZoteBoat is better
Gasp How could you forget Hungry Knight 
Hungry Knight has too many micro-transactions, i can't play a Free to Play game unless it has no ads
still much better than its cash grab sequel Hollow Knight
yeah, no one said Hollow Knight was good just that ZoteBoat is the best
Trying to exploit Hungry Knight's sucess
I still stand by that Hungry Knight is the best
So you like micro-transactions?
The story, the character arcs and gameplay
no, I like gud games
the micro-transactions and gems
you could still complete the game without the micro transactions
its also made by the creator of ugly jesus vs mummy also another masterpiece
true, though those games have awful graphics
True, though the gameplay and soundeffects make up for it for me personally
Hmm, though the sound affects are good, the music is trash
Yea, I have to admit one of the only decent parts of Hollow Knight is its music
yeah, but the music is kind of stolen from Hungry Knight too!
yeah, Hollow Knight is the worst game in the TC series
Definetly
Hollow Knight is a bad game
Hungry Knight is better
Couldnt agree more
Hungry Knight fans rise up
When was the website redone? I'm sure it's been a while I just didn't notice
several months ago
from feb to june or something
After it was obliterated
damn rlly been that long since i checked 
fake fan 
should be checking twice a day yezzir
Twice a day?
Don't you know silksong could release every millisecond now?
You should be 24/7 plugged in the internet
jan 2023 release š
It's actually 2032
3022
idk why but i have this guys random prediction pinned
cant wait to be killed as hornet
by the time ss comes out hornets will be extinct
it's hollow knight beta
it's a beta for some patches for HK
no it's a beta for a HK patch
a
don't hold your breath for a public SS beta, won't happen
public ss beta more like dataminer food
mainly because there's no need for it
it's a single player game, no netcode optimization needed, no servers to test etc
They also got their playtesters already
mmos also got playtesters but you won't reach a meaningful scope to stress test servers with just a couple 100 players
I had a dream where ss released august 31st 2021
But then i realised that day is gone alredy
The radiance starting to infect ppl with false ss hope 
Idk r moths edible
My cat ate one
So I believe it's edible
Plus in Asia there is candy with moths and butterflies inside it
That is edible
Sounds rly... idk
even dogshit becomes edible with enough sugar
I mean what do you think chocolate is 
what about garbage?
ever been to mcdonalds? 
My favourite mcdonalds item, the McDumpsterDive
no but I've seen you
meanie >:(
that's me
i'm here for my bimonthly ss-discussion check in
cya in 2 months 
This could be something to take a note of. on the other hand it could just be leth being leth
Leth has a thing for indies
leth always talks about indie presentations, because his job is indie games
Yeah I knowš
he's also not limited to SilkSong, he has multiple things in his pipeline
all indies
silksong will be in either a TC post, a Nintendo Direct, or something with Geoff Keighley, anything else is immensely unlikely
Actually that reminds me does anyone know when the next Nintendo direct is
a release announcement will 100% go to the backers 1st imo
the geoff things being mainly summer games fest, and TGA
no chance for it to be somewhere else
they're going to announce crowsworn release date 
right but it'll be out to us almost immediately afterwards, no chance every backer keeps their mouth shut
Silksong
well yes of course
also it'll still be public-ish, they're not trying to hide it by addressing backers
I'm just saying that's the place where we should expect the one piece of news we seek
instead of nintendo directs or similar events
Yeah agreed, honestly i'm past the stage of outward hype at this point, it comes when it comes and in the meantime i have deathloop and elden ring
when some remotely indie related thing passes by and hollow knight fans hasnt concluded that SS is gonna be there yet
What happened
I guy said he thought ss was a prequel. His body was never found
Maybe it is a prequel
yeah
Well it definitely is a prequel, to silksong 2
What if it's a sequel to Silksong 3
bruh
MaYbE iT's An AlTeRaTe ReAlItY

Well isn't Pax Australia in october?
It's a midquel to HK and SS 2
10 october i think
Yeah
