man i think team cherry is planning something big

silver oak
#

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

Spoiler alert: It takes a long time for 3 people to make a game

People really don’t know that games take time

Just type words and the game runs

Can we make #aluofest the first thread in this channel

serene chasm
#

We already had a thread

olive bobcat

What the fuck
This is unfair

pliant spruce
# warm bone People really don’t know that games take time

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 game’s quality

olive bobcat

Can we make #aluofest the best thread in this channel?

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 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?

fiery coral
fiery coral
coarse leaf
#

From what team cherry said in an interview, it is a sequel.

pallid flare
#

source

fiery coral
coarse leaf
#

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 (371Ɨ136)

foggy patio
#

oki

mortal grove
#

its a sequel

#

prequelists destroyed by facts and logic

coarse leaf
#

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.

pallid flare
#

of course would it possible

#

this kind of weapon isn't exclusive to pharloom

proud vale
#

Hmmm I didn’t think prequel discussion would last this long

wanton crest
#

discussing to cope with no ss

formal karma
#

i mean there is literally no evidence either way

shell yacht
#

prequelist mindset has no basis zote

formal karma
#

same with sequelism šŸ˜›

shell yacht
#

nope

#

several things say sequel

cerulean tree
#

alternate universe obviously

shell yacht
#

TC themselves, desc on youtube trailer, Hornet saying her usual tools are missing etc

stark prism
#

and hornets usual tools are?

cerulean tree
#

glock

shell yacht
#

the HK bossfight ones

formal karma
#

TC purposefully say its a sequel as in second game, and this isn't hornet's first adventure... she was trained in usual tools

stark prism
#

the only thing that comes to mind are those spikeballs in the second fight

formal karma
#

i mean it's most likely a seuqel, but there's nothing saying its a sequel

stark prism
#

how does hornet forget how to sprint and do flips and shit after getting to the moss grotto in pharloom

cerulean tree
#

dementia

cerulean tree
night hull
formal karma
#

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

night hull
stark prism
night hull
#

So she lost her powers

glossy gazelle
#

Probably from whatever the cultists did to her

pallid flare
shell yacht
#

you cant be half higher being

cerulean tree
#

well than its just dementia

shell yacht
#

higher being is a status not genetic marker

pallid flare
#

i'm not a prequelist but seriously

night hull
#

Tho i dont think so

stark prism
glossy gazelle
#

Yeah she’s a half-breed between a literal god and a normal bug

pallid flare
#

isn't that a demigod

shell yacht
#

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

glossy gazelle
stark prism
shell yacht
#

no

#

a bug

#

you are either a higher being or you arent

stark prism
shell yacht
#

no demigod status exists in that universe

pallid flare
#

not yet

shell yacht
pallid flare
#

stop elderC'ing me

night hull
#

Do you work for team cherry

cerulean tree
#

get off your alt ari

night hull
#

Yes

#

Come and tell us when is silksong

shell yacht
#

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

marsh ibex
#

existinh

fiery coral
marsh ibex
#

cand

glossy gazelle
#

I mean she’s 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

stark prism
formal karma
#

and just because you can beat people up better doesn't mean you're a higher being

marsh ibex
glossy gazelle
#

So I’m assuming Hornet has higher being level powers that haven’t been shown yet

shell yacht
shell yacht
stark prism
#

i guess a regular sized human in the world of hk could count as a higher being

marsh ibex
#

we have no size refs so they could be human sized for all we know

stark prism
#

there is a bunch of huge amonite fossils scattered about

night hull
#

Hey dont delete that

glossy gazelle
#

I didn’t even have time to elderC that

cerulean tree
marsh ibex
night hull
#

They are bugs so that could be our only size ref

#

I guess they are size of bugs

shell yacht
#

Bardoon, Grubs, Marrissa, Moths, Marmu, dirtcarvers. these guys dont even make sense amongst themselves for sizes dont ovethink the rest of the game

night hull
#

Its a fictional world

formal karma
#

its a world that has no sky- there's literally nothing about it that needs to relate to ours

shell yacht
#

no way

stark prism
#

and i guess the dreamrealm sort of has a sky background

night hull
#

It would be cool if there was a giant ant unit

cerulean tree
#

b i g a n t

night hull
#

In deep docks or wherever ants are

stark prism
night hull
#

No

#

I mean ant unit

#

Colony im dumb

#

Like mantis village

stark prism
#

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

glossy gazelle
#

Yeah I’m assuming that area is where you fight Carmelita

stark prism
#

i assume that there is also gonna be a colloseum there

night hull
#

I think you will get some dope ability when you defeat Carmelita

stark prism
#

since this seems like a mantis village equivalent, and the concept with the Colosseum being located in the mantis village was dropped

night hull
#

Yes

stark prism
#

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

night hull
#

Coloseum of fools

stark prism
#

or there is a room with a semingly regular bench where the floor collapses and you just fall into the arena mid match

night hull
#

That they want to go battle there

#

Bc its known in other kingdoms aswell

stark prism
#

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

night hull
#

Im in need of silksong

#

Christopher larkin should upload another sample

#

Or tc post something on twitter like : Hey, we are alive

stoic jacinth
#

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

night hull
#

Thats what im asking for, not spoilers

#

Soundrack kinda isnt a spoiler

haughty brook
#

It is though

night hull
#

Not a major one

glossy gazelle
signal crag
#

Uh, they did?

stark prism
glossy gazelle
#

Or Deep Docks

pallid flare
#

we do have high quality footage

stark prism
#

like it's about time another soundtrack "sample" get released

Most footage, I’ve seen either there’s people talking or it’s being drowned out by the game sfx

serene chasm

Nooooo

stark prism
#

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

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?

mortal grove
#

no i hope not

echo shell
#

you think it will be more of a get to the top, the end?

proven token
#

The ones with the weavers on them or whatever

echo shell
#

hmm

#

i love asking questions that no one has answers to

proven token
#

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

haughty brook
#

I think the closest thing to "dreamers" are the magical big bells Hornet hits to do their magical bell thing.

olive bobcat
#

This is my dreamer OC, тонна очков

proven token
#

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

haughty brook
tawdry valley
#

Just a hunch feelspkman

proven token
#

Idk why I said only difference
I just meant in the ways the game gets you to do stuff

slow heart
#

There’s also quests and stuff, so Silksong will probably have a more direct objective system.

also why would there be dreamers in SS

way too early in what way?

its been 9 months since news, the time is ripe

stiff burrow
#

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.

#

I’m assuming that the game is in a ā€œyou can play it all the way throughā€ state, currently. But I do think that they’re probably going to be releasing it with all the content that would’ve been post-release if it were like HK.

sweet lotus

#

So I think they’re just adding more and more, basically. Although I’m sure there’s still stuff that needs polish.

#

The existence of metroid dread does not preclude TC from publicizing their game

brazen prawn
#

I’m not gonna lie, as much as I want Silksong to come out soon, I do hope that it won’t come out until I’m able to finish a playthrough of Metroid Dread. I just want to be able to dedicate my full attention to both games.

stark prism
#

anyways silksong is probably gonna sell more copies than metroid dread

brazen prawn
#

That does seem very likely, although Dread seems like it might be the best selling Metroid game, so we’ll see.

#

Although I suppose if Dread does sell well, it’ll probably get more people into metroidvanias, getting Silksong more attention as well.

stark prism
#

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

brazen prawn
#

Yeah, I know I will.

this seems like a cliffhanger for something unrelated to silksong

opaque sigil
#

I mean... in DnM the Lord of Shades is in a similar position, and it just goes to the Abyss

primal oriole
#

I feel like if TC wanted to indicate that the same thing would happen, they would just show it

#

and there’s also the cliffhanger with THK

opaque sigil
#

There's not much reason to believe that anything exciting would happen there either

stark prism
#

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

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

the third games kingdom could be presented as a totally new one at first

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

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

opaque sigil
#

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

formal karma
#

oof not NG+ again...

opaque sigil
#

This is the first I've seen it come up

formal karma
#

it comes up rarely, i'll admit

#

but it's so janky

opaque sigil
#

Yeah

#

The only things that could conceivably carry over are the boring things, like health, silk, damage upgrades, and those are the boring things

formal karma
#

maybe a Master Quest style double enemy damage + flipped game map

#

that's what I am personally hoping Silksoul is......

opaque sigil
#

Now that, I could see, but that isn't really a new game plus, it's just an increased difficulty

cunning geode
#

flipped game map?

opaque sigil

Although idk how much flipping the map would really add

How are you all doing?i havent been here recently

doing great, just picking up some old games again and having fun that way

serene chasm

what counts as a while? like 4 hours?

#

What games, Ozlin?

formal karma
#

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 feelspkman

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

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

Sad

It's really good

Its good

yea... people say that.... but whyyyyyyyyyy

I just can't really give a good pitch without spoiling stuff

Do you like exploration? Solving mysteries, SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!

formal karma
#

mhmmm i can dig that i guess

#

i just didn't see any hooks when watching the trailer, i guess :S

grim forge
#

I literally cannot recommend a game more than outer wilds

#

That's my entire argument feelspkman

formal karma
#

it's on my wishlist, anyways

grim forge
formal karma
#

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?

grim forge
#

It's completely open

opaque sigil
#

Emphasis on completely

grim forge
#

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

grim forge
#

And it's a very magical experience

formal karma
#

WELL.... maybe do that when the boredom abyss opens up again

random granite
#

Outer wilds is the kind of game where saying or reading ANYTHING about the game spoils it

grim forge
#

Yeah

#

It's so hard to sell people on the game

random granite
#

Like even the trailers are a spoiler

formal karma
#

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 😮

Wait I’m 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 šŸ˜›

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?

I think it was your message yeah

Bloodborne

Hey Bloodborne is a top notch game

But obv it’s insane that HK can compete with games like Bloodborne when it was only made by 3 people

serene chasm
#

I have to admit something as well. Its not mine either. Top 3 for sure though

frank mist
#

Everyone top 5 games Go!

#

Or top 3

serene chasm
#
  1. Shadow of the Colossus
  2. Morrowind
  3. Hollow Knight
  4. Outer Wilds
  5. Half Life 2

😩

#

I never beat Shadow of the Colossus

#

Controls were very clunky lol

serene chasm
#

They are, but man is it beautiful

frank mist
#

I’m not sure

#

But I think the ending is really good right

#

My top 5:

  1. Bloodborne
  2. Hollow Knight
  3. God of War
  4. BoTW
  5. Ghost of Tsushima
#

Although I feel like I’m very heavily influenced by recency bias

serene chasm
#

Ive only played HK and Botw out of those. But Ive heard great things about the others

frank mist
#

I honestly feel like whatever game I’m playing at the time is my favorite game if it’s actually good

#

Like once fifa 21 is done installing its def gonna top the charts šŸ’ÆšŸ’Æ

serene chasm
frank mist
#

I just hope Silksong can take a spot on the list

serene chasm
#

Im sure it will

frank mist
#

Although having both Hollow Knight and Silksong in my top 5 seems very unfair to other games lol

olive bobcat
#
  1. LittleBigPlanet 2
  2. Omori
  3. Hollow Knight
  4. Pokemon: Black 2
  5. Portal 2 or somethin
frank mist
#

LBP 2 is fire

olive bobcat
#

Best game I've ever played

frank mist
#

And I hear Omori is great

#

I haven’t played LBP 2 since I was like 7 lol

Portal 2 is epic

Hopefully Omori comes to switch soon

bleak scarab

Omori is veryyy long

#

Wheatley's betrayal hit me hard

But isn’t Omori more of a story than a game? Would I get the same experience just watching a playthrough?

My connection to a certain female main character are what murder my feelings by the end

that favourite is Portal 2

it's pretty cheap on Steam almost all the time

Madden 19 best game ever 😩

#

Also everyone with a ps4 if you haven’t played Bloodborne then what are you doing

fiery coral
#

Bloodborne is great

frank mist
#

It took me a new game+ and picking the other ending for me to really decide how good it was

fiery coral

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

#

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

charred pulsar
#

I played the first Infamous but never the sequel or anything beyond that

#

I really should've though

frank mist
#

What’s crazy is the graphics on Infamous Second Son, it was a launch title for ps4 and has graphics as good as today’s games

#

Although it’s a good thing, I’m a lil sad Ghost of Tsushima did so well, cuz now Sucker Punch probably isn’t gonna return to infamous

deft pivot
frank mist
#

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
