Depends on how fair or unfair they are
this^
if there is no rhyme or reason to the bullet hell boss and you cant learn how to get better at it, it is (usually) a bad boss
for instance, primal aspids
Hey I don’t suck
That’s probably gonna vary by the player. I’m mixed on bullet hells
So long as it's somewhat predictable and managable
thats lace and hornet, thats 100% lace and hornet
hence i 100 approved hornet should just murder anyone that gets in her way
then again i dislike shoehorned romance at times
you cant ship it with hornet if its already dead
what is it with the internet shipping everything that exists
i am still traumatised by draemnotfound
I was going to ask "by what?" but on second thought I'd rather not know
good
My favourite ship is Evergreen x Suez Channel
my favourite ship is me and your mom
hi dad
i am getting milk
you said that 20 years ago!
shit
I remembered hearing about a comic called, "oh dream~" and I'm still too scared to check it out
iT's EveRgiVeN rEEEE
save me
From what
pain
I'm sorry but all I know is that there are some pills to help with pain from the pharmacy thats all I know
no
Yes?
you absolutely can
WHAT NO-
wtf Curly found their dad
yes
Hasn't curly technically found their step dad?
imagine finding out your dad is furry sans
I have an addiction of cracking my knuckles so much
Maybe silksong will come during like November or December
Remember tonwatch out for PAX AUS from 8 to the 10 of octoebr, chance that SS might be there
dont put too much hope on pax
i doubt anything is happening for the rest of this year
Mid-late 2022 is my guess but even that is optimistic
nah thats too much
ill be surprised if it doesnt come out in the 1st half of 2022
Yeah, though i can always just “pretend that SS will be there”
“Pretend” yeah
I think the next announcment will be a release, there has already been many interviews and snnouncments aboutnthe game, release will probably be the next event
yeah im guessing that too
although a blogpost would be nice, the silence is kind of annoying
I remember the days of when people thought it was going to release in 2019.
My original guess was Feb 14 2020
I think my original guess was a joke saying that it would come out 3 years from the trailer,
Not that unlikely now though
Ah, all this talk about Outer Wilds earlier today has made me excited to start playing it on the 28th. 
Im excited for you to play it
Same
I just had my mom play a bit, she got to stressed at ||the bottom of ember twin’s south pole’s lakebed|| and quit tho
She’s not played a ton of games
My parents wouldnt even give any game a try
they were born in the 19s probably video games didn't exist back then so kinda explains
I like how you got them completely swapped over lol
The 19s?
the 19s were before the 2000s
1900s
yeah
plenty of people born in the late 90s would have been gamers I'm pretty sure
nineteen-hundreds
why does that sound like a century
it... is
i know.
Thats what I assumed. I was born in the 19s. Games existed back then
ye
I got my mom to play outer wilds and she got motion sick
F
Then I made my sister play it but she hates everything, she is still giving it a shot though
wow
My mom gets very disoriented when playing first person 3D games, hard for her to know where she is
as in she just hates everything everything or everything in the game
Yeah, she hates flying, dying, and exploring
oof
Ive given up trying to get my family to like the things I like. (and they wonder why I never hang out)
My mom has played other games, they have to be 2D though. She beat Hades a couple months ago
Outer Wilds ||I opened the game for the first time in a year and a half, went to Brittle Hollow, crashed, went outside and then instantly died because I forgot you need to equip the space suit||
nice
||this is going great||
Pog
when ||Self|| says that we would have died in the very first cycle unknowingly, I felt attacked
because it was so true lol
https://youtu.be/DSd6hDbb6iA?t=54 Greymoor theme please
Interesting how people name decades after the last year of the prior decade
speaking of trying to get parents to play videogames
my father played Portal once
first one
he got to the chamber immediately after you get the Handheld Portal Device, but...soon gave up 
as for my mother, she very frequently sits with me and watches as I play
strangely enough Portal 2 is the one game she absolutely did not enjoy watching, I have no clue why
she was completely unfazed by ||the Anglerfish|| in Outer Wilds somehow 🥴 while I was utterly terrified
How
I don't know!
My mom gets too into the game, acts like it’s real almost, and will refuse to play if she thinks it’s scary
Bruh whenever I check this channel, people are always talking anything other than Sharp Shadow
If you've played Cuphead: you know Baroness von Bon Bon? You know her final phase where her castle comes alive and starts coming towards you?
That was a jumpscare to her, but the (Outer Wilds spoilers) ||FIFTY FOOT GIANT FANGED BLOBS OF NOPE|| do absolutely nothing somehow
https://youtu.be/ZWOAb-IEvcE?t=73 in case you haven't played Cuphead/don't recall that bit
Baroness von Bon Bon boss fight in Cuphead on PC and Xbox One.

Cuphead Candy Boss Battle
isnt cuphead the insanely hard boss rush game with hand drawn animation like cartoons in the 90s or 80s?
Yes
Yes
it mustve been a pain to animate though... i havent played the game myself but i can tell its difficult but fun
Yeah really good, but a little overrated tbh
It took 10 years to make
yeah it’s cell animated
i mean the devs deserve a lot consideringhow long it mustve taken, wait it took 10 years?
Yes
I am very surprised that they had the determination for the whole time
they need a bigger team of animators
or a more efficient way of working, the animation is great but i heard they were hand drawing sketches and then inking it and then scanned it but it mustve taken an ungodly amount of determination and work...
Yeah
no wonder the dlc didnt release in 2019
silksong
whats that?
A myth
Shaman Stone
Oh ok
Idk what the punchline is
And then….?
Silksong is no more 
:( angy
Very angy
yo
dont
nsfw.
not-safe-for-work
yeah, avoid posting stuff like that
🤨
mkay

sussy
unless you somehow thought Silksong stars the White Lady...?
But what if it does?
Ok
ah yes the sentient tree doing acrobatic back flips, diagonal pogos and parries
yes that is a gif
often new users like posting Hollow Knight gifs
dont worry its just a phase
Makes total sense you know
Wombat the server guide
hey, ive been here over a year now
on your right you will see the average #sk-discussion user
making a "silknever" joke thinking it's original
on the right? you mean...
Ha hahahahahahaha
the staff?
And to your left you will see the common “silksong when” in its natural habitat
no
Moooooooods!! someone said Hornet is Void again (in #hk-discussion)
and if you squint a bit you can see someone sprinting towards us in the distance, that's the average #off-topic user screaming "?psa" to the new user who mentioned HK in that channel
Moderators are not a part of Team Cherry
the two Admins playtest the game
Along with Graig
the Team Cherry members are on the server though - they have a red role
they just dont show up much
And Red PFPs
needless to say don't ping them 
because they work on the game
Graig does
No
no we cannot
no
Pings do not even work 
Good
Wait they do?
I think they meant role pings
yeah as I just demonstrated
Mods get pinged
I hate you so much mister @fiery coral
or role, rather
love ya mister @fiery coral
There are no custom roles here
150k people
“Haha look at you low rank”
we used to have a speedrunner blue role but now they have their own server
They still have the role too
Yes, I like blue on my name
so the only "custom" role is if you boost the server with nitro
"look at this guy, hasn't even done P5
"
Yeah, I have it
well, have you?
I sure do love classism in a discord server
#sk-discussion more like #general-discussion lmao
I put as many descriptions as possible
well, I'll leave this to you Unique
sorry to say but Unique and I have been sweet-talking you all before executing you
but I gotta leave it to him since i need to dip

yeah we couldn't keep it going forever 😔
Excuse me executing us
indeed
toodles
bye
When does it start?
Me first, me first, me first, me fir-dead
(I am going to change my bio to ‘slain by UniqueNameForMe’)
would you mind not persistently posting unrelated gifs
Done
me when ur mom haha gottem
ok
I learn new words everyday because of Unique
Hmm, a Lore breaker, we must call the mods wait no that was already done
isn't delicious last course coming out this year
I think yeah
well unless it gets delayed again
F
hmm actually I don't think it will, unlike SS, a release year was actually given (even if it went from 2019, to 2020, and now this year)
yeah, though There still is a chance of another delay
hey I just realised, like SS it has a new playable character
inb4 it becomes its own game lol
Pretty sure it will just keep growing and growing
Lol SS isnt real at this point
You know, there should be a waiting emoji of some sort for the HK server
to signify endless waiting
:Horntwait:
hmm, what about vessel wait
silksong fan wait
pure wait???
pale wait?
hmm
Seeker wait
Moth wait
seer wait
moss wait
Hornet wait, no wait that's a circke
can we discuss silksong
what did you expect
silksong discussion
Off-topic discussion
Guys… 😂 lets think that we will receive anything today part x1936371910 hahaha
Part x1936... ?
I am making fun that people are always thinking that we will get anything about silksong on almost every presentation that exist lol
But this is promising a little because that guy is publisher of Silksong
they already said no silksong is not one of the indies\
so please drop it
you have to let go
the reveal trailer wasnt your fault
Alrwdy confiremd we are getting no news from here
hello fellow Silksong anticipators
Hi chief
Oh, hi Graig
already tried the chapter 2 of Deltarune?
So called “free thinkers” when they get ordered to grab the banana
I still find it hilarious that the Elden Ring community got their big break before us
GRAB THE BANANA
banana
Bana
ba
B
can't spell banana without ban
Yes I can
that's for mods to decide 
bÆñana
Graigo was here
Who's graigo?
he's TCs league of legends expert
Ooh I see
He also knows the release date to silksong but he won't give it because we haven't asked him yet
Tc asked graig not to reveal his game now because it would make silksong look so dated and clunky 
Oi - Graig's Gardening Sim is a next-gen masterpiece of gaming
Hi, when will SS be released?
2 weeks after the date is announced
When will the date be announced?
when the game is ready
When ... ah never mind ...
Maybe the developers struggle with some serious bug issues. I dunno why it takes so long.
it doesn't "take so long"
it's a 3 man team making a massive game
what do you expect how long that takes?
1 artist, 1 game designer, 1 coder
OK ... then, it makes sense
they're not bugs, they're features
Just wondering, is Team-Cherry paid by anyone or are they freelancing on SS?
they're using part of what they earned from HK as funds
yeah
is what is to be assumed
November 2014 is the year the kickstarter campian started, 24 February 2017 is the earliest release of hollow knight,it might take more time for silksong to develop
If by "freelancing" you mean a self-sufficient indie game studio, then yes.
Ok, thanks for responding
snlikmmsoge
Bruh there's so many good back and forth points about having either a sooner or later release for Silksong as compared to Hollow Knight and they're basically all good
I don't see why that really matters regardless, tbh. If it takes longer, it takes longer. It seems like it's gonna be a better game
For example:
Sooner - TC has a dedicated and talented coder, TC will be reusing many assets and by now has the animating and programming aspect of development streamlined, Also TC has more money in the bank and therefore have to rely less on continual backing funds.
Later - Silksong will definitively be a bigger game undoubtedly taking longer, Silksong has advanced AI for enemies and therefore programming enemies that way could put them back at square one in the streamlining process, and more small effects are being programmed into the world such as the ground depressing when Hornet steps on it, juggling shakram, moving backgrounds - and lastly there is gonna be way more dialogue
"It'll cancel out" 
But yeah, that's pretty much the evidence I use to support the position that HK development time isn't necessarily going to be anywhere similar to SS's, when people try to use the former to predict the latter
more small effects are being programmed into the world such as the ground depressing when Hornet steps on it,
Rest in peace ground
The small stuff like that really does a lot for a game imo
HK was good, but it didn't have a ton of that sorta thing, compared to (yes, this is an unfair comparison,) something like BOTW
That is indeed an unfair conparison
Yeah, just trying to illustrate my point because botw nailed that sorta thing
Yeah, which is why it was an unfair comparison
Iirc it took like a decade to make
I'm not saying HK should have been more like botw, just that botw does a lot to demonstrate attention to the small details we're talking about
Ye Thats true
botw is a good reference tho of like what a lot of detail looks like, even if its unfair comparison lol
I'm using botw as an example of how those things can add to a game
SS is definetly gonna have more details which is even seen from the trailers
the detail in botw is what got me immersed af
which is why im so excited for SS, it seems so detailed
Yeah
All of you make me wanna get botw even more
If you have a switch, I'd recommend it
its a great game, the place where BOTW could improve is more bosses but other than that its super nice
I do have one but it costs so much
I consider it to be the pinnacle of open-world games
Ile prolly get it sometime
that plus if it had cooler dungeons like in the previous games
I liked the dungeons, but anyways, that's off topic
This entire place is offtopic
yes its just offtopic 2 lol
It wasn't a few minutes ago 
until we get new ss content at least
99% of the time it’s just outerwilds talk
The only thing I considered being dungeons were the divine beast levels
must... resist... urge to plug outer wilds....
yeah same
Yeah, those are what I'm referring to. And the castle, ig
But the castle was pretty different
I regret spoiling 99% of the game to myself
no need
oh by dungeons before i was referring to the puzzles, they were cool and all but the design of them were the same so it felt a little repetitive at times
Yeah the castle is a great dungeon
no need to resist, I mean
Oh yeah, the shrines could be a bit tedious, but every now and then a cool one showed up
yeah the shrines thats what they're called whoops
Also, yeah, play outer wilds 
Mayhaps
And Hades 
ss discussion stands for outer wilds discussion you just need higher brain power to see it
plug as many games as you like
Yes.
play Manifold Garden
and Omori while you're at it
Imma become a prophet...: there are no SS news yet
Omori is so good
play Baba is you
play minecraft
play “get on topic pls”
that game is overrated
yeah the mechanics get a little repetitive sometimes 
I kinda liked the minigame "guess the Silksong release date" but yeah it gets repetitive after a few hours
It's just rng 
technically talking about ss-disccusion is talking on topic

ss-discussion-discussion
SS discussion discsussion discussion when?.??.
we just did
if mattew retwited we have high chances on getting something
fingers crossed
no it was confirmed that ss wont be on there dont spread news that anythings gonna be there
Any news or leaks??? I need hope guys 😭😭😭😭
leaks? dont think we'll ever get an ss leak, only news, when its time
?sspsa
Reminder: The latest news for both Hollow Knight and Silksong is in #hk-announcements.
Check the pinned messages for more information, including a FAQ. 
love how the questions is so repeated mods have given up and just use the command lmao
oh
no, actually

Bayonetta 3 had only a teaser title drop
And Leth retweeting events has historically not meant anything wrt SS's presence
Yeah I know what you mean
Silksong has had an announcement trailer and several news drops from other sources
i just want news
He's also involved with other projects like Crowsworn
its been 9 months
I was just joking lol
its almost like y'all want news more than the actual game 
we will have a no news ss birthday
Just look at Leth's message about it
we know that the game dont have to be rushed if we want great things
what message?
https://discordapp.com/channels/283467363729408000/586931790208434203/887644535822368788, hopefully this works
yes, i get the wait is tiring for some but it'll be repaid with a great game, no point complaining about news because likely next piece of stuff we're getting is the actual release
silksong will NOT be at this event
yup

Guarantee is a pretty strong stance to take on that matter
guarantee is the wrong word im tired lol
g morning cheese
it'd be surprising if we get another blog post cuz even leths tweet to team cherry ganes twitter account said TC was busy "finishing" SS, so it'd be surprising if they were still finishing it at the time because that means we're getting a fucking butter smooth polished game
They said 10 months ago that they were "focused on getting Silksong finished." Odds are, they didn't mean that they were almost done with the game, otherwise it would probably have been finished by now
wait what event
Crowsworn today
yeah most likely
Leth said he would try to get them to do more blogposts, which says to me they're not close to being finished cuZ then a blogpost would be kinda unnecessary
that was like 2-3 months ago or so
I still hate that lady that said "silksong is coming soon" like 2 years ago.
You shouldn't, it's standard language
I dont actually hate her, it's just that i changed my expectations significantly for a release date
no silksong
cope
If not for anything, silksong has given me a discord username i've stuck with for 2+ years
I had another dream about silksong... 
*I had a dream of Silksong.
It was cancelled.
But it was alright.*
oh i didnt know that, damn then yeah
bruh the whole community is gonna become gods at overanalyzing by the time this shits all over
I mean you've seen the hoops people'll jump through to interpret the most random things as information suggesting proximity of release/information
but but but leth breathed we're getting silksong news today
fun fact, leth breathed at LEAST once every day for the past 20+ years
fun fact, Leth drank water once in his lifetime
Of course, I should've known, silksong is coming out on Leth's birthday, it's so obvious!
when is leth's birthday then
32/13
3 - 5 business days
the escapist indie showcas
I think the release could be what German called Schnappszahl like 22.02.2022 or maybe the 5.5. like leetspeak for ss and that's possible every year and even with the US date standard
Probably not
Soonest time that could happen would be 2/22/2222 (or 22/2/2222)
So in like 200 years 
Or you write 22.2.22
Cheater 
never watched the emotes until now :D
i’m going to guess early 2022 but i’llnorobably just kick my ass again
also I feel that's more of German thing. It's a German saying and they have the start of carnival on 11.11. 11:11h
So maybe the rest of the world doesn't get as excited about same numbers as Germans do
there is no end... it's only an illusion
the wait for SS and this chat is eternal
imagine being able to play silk song couldn be me
But for real I could imagine that the game is ready for like 95%, but the release for the switch stress them so much they test everything for 100 times and don't want to make any mistake.. at the start for the game unbound: worlds apart there was a bug and I couldn't start the game.. they fixed it but Nintendo didn't push the update or so and I waited two weeks
Dawn of the final day
its like a poem
in wild beyond awaits the silk and song,
for none could tame our savage souls yet you the challenge met,
under cherry's watch, you taught, we changed, base instincts were redeemed,
A world you give a gamer as they have never dreamed.
amen
Is it ironic that the void is at the end?
oh yeah definitely
Are you German?
Guys
Today is 20 september 2021
That means silksong is coming out after 20 september 2021
finally, a release date!
I am so excited !
Idk
will i be able to play ss on mi ouia
you alright?
sure
mfers be putting their accomplishments in their names like pronouns
why?
people like to show off what they’ve done on this server
What if their pronoun is just 112%
i did 11%, should I brag about that?
I've considered that
who are you to judge
I just never understood the appeal of bragging like that
especially since like half the people active here are also flexing their 100+%
but its whatever
people with the percentages in their names are usually newer players
oooh, I see now
or you only need one word in your name to be recognized 
a true chad
and a different role color
okay moderator

okay modification
You also need a native australian animal for that finishing touch
we meet again
i just came here to say
?sspsa
cope harder 
😢 i feel like eric cartman waiting for the nintendo wii
one more month and i wont hesistate to freeze myself this is a threat (it is not a threat)
Thank goodness 
cold as ice
I saw the topic was usernames
so I thought i'd bring it up
yeah uhhm
dont pick names like orange
made-up words are better for nicknames imo
yep tru
I remember before when we had actual estimates and solid guesses as to when it'd be out, fun times
you could always add another letter as if it’s a last name abbreviation
or pick an already existing word
just make sure it's not very commonly used
or just mess it up a bit like "orang" or something
Like, to tell the difference between two guys named Alex just have Alex A. and Alex G. or whatever letter you want
orang (utan)
monkeymonkeymonkeymonkey
monke
you dont need to laugh
it's fine
my usual tag is OrangePeel
Bro silksong better come out I'm getting desperate
hey guys 
I almost consideres buying tekken, on a playstation
i tried playing tekken once
why tf did they have to make me turn the controller to undersyand the controls like
i’d be 10392828% better if they just showed it normally </3
feelsbad
An hours worth of videos before you even start the game
escapist today ?
Guys I got silksong early 
I dunno, but probably no silksong
Escapist confirmed no Silksong
Unless they were lying 👹
hello
h
hes will smith from team cherry, duh
omg true
smith be working on milksong
finally beat silksong, 200%
currently waiting for the dlc
Did you find any bugs?
Yeah you can see 2 in the picture

Also you can fall infinitely into the vøīd
they have jars full of spiders they're raising to try and create hornet 2.0
and then maybe tc will put them in a pit and wait for the strongest to come out and raise it as hornet for silksong
they're gonna pale king this shit
and maybe a tiny hornet will replace the other hornet, or end silksong over all, or turn into a lord of spiders and overpower tc themselves
we really getting desperate huh
yep, its only been 3 years and this is what the chat has become
Yeah, only 3 years 
i mean compared to games like OMORI who had to wait for 6 years that really isnt a lot of time, i think one game crossed 7 years but cant remember it
I mean it’s still painful
Tbf people didn’t get to see that much of omori on day one as we got to see of silksong. All omori fans got day one was a really cool trailer, we practically got a “hey this game is already really far into development and could release in a few months if it had to”
ummh... in what world did we get that...
Well it was significantly more than the omori trailer is what i’m getting at.
maybe but it didn't tell us "it's gonna be ready soon" they explicitly told us "we're making this game now", that's all
nothing about "gonna be ready soon" or anything
Well it wasn’t “this is going to take another while” either
it pretty much was
literally no game company does that, let alone TC because they didn't want to commit to anything
they announced it because people who paid for Hornet dlc deserved to know what's happening
and because they were terrified of the game leaking
how can a 3 man team leak their game
playtesters, the people who record the music, etc.
yes but has an NDA always stopped something from leaking
and in the case of TC they're trusted friends
that's beside the point
it's not a giant company and the people involved know each other personally
I doubt it was going to happen just going off of what TC have said somewhere
big fines might happen
Cuphead I believe
It would also have started to look more and more suspicious for the "dlc" to take this long.
tbf omocat is a bit incompetent
Even then it’s fair to say that they feared smth happening nonetheless
thank you
I don't think they were afraid of anything
Well, crowsworn news in like 2 hours so that’s cool
oh shit really?
since when, what
oh motherfucker i forgot to back the kickstarter goddamnit
The escapist indie showcase is in about 2 hours and crowsworn is supposed to be there, unless the trailer is lying
sweet I somehow never heard of that
bodacious
Well the trailer could be lying speaking from experience but who knows
oh boy
How's the agony going?
pain
nice pfp 
remember, silksong on october 13th 
What’s October 13th
mfw downvoted in ss discussion
a day they made up 
I see!
my friend keeps saying thats when the game comes out for absolutely no reason
so they made it up
yes
but its funny
ok but be careful because even if you say its made up someones gonna believe you and be angry on here come the 13th of october
plus I'm tired of the people who make up dates
its been almost 3 years so kinda sad if anybody gets angry over dates
hey if silksongs a prequel why did tc say,"hollowknights exciting sequel" sorry about going a bit offtopic here
its not a prequel
sequel in the game franchise and prequel is just a theory A GAME THEORY
and its not a sequel

Sequel as in second game in the franchise. Still probably not a prequel though
This again 
ooooh thanks for clarifying
the cycle never ends
Tools
tools?
🛠️
Tools, yes.
maybe 2021
tools it is i guess
pimpillo gaming
why do you say that
Silksong tomorrow always
we can believe
whats dodano
wise words to live by
WHATS DODANO
you cannot not download your local files from the internet without consequences
i remember someone commented on the daily silksong new channel and everyday they commented,"no news for today, but tomorrow for sure..."
it was taco 
whos taco? Do you mean the youtuber orr
this informs you when I added this game to my wishlist on steam
Tac0, the famous monopoly speedrunner
thank you
Polish language
Date added but cringe foreign language 🤮
i see, thank you
yeah i know it's a pretty scary word from a very scary language
I was terrified, ok? 
reminds me of the word pimpilo for some reason
you still absolutely need to be terrified
wasnt that the undertale soundtrack guy
both have 3 syllables, first 2 are similar, 3rd is "oh"
it just means "added"
yeah the game soundtrack guy
pim-pi-lo
do-da-no
thank you for clarifying further
polish 
indeed
polish cow?
dancing cow gif overlayed on top of a song about crack addiction was only funny for the first 3 times
It’s funny all the time
it was a bit overdone
When escapist
escapist is now?????
It started?
An hour
Oh ok bc idk how to use ET
Around 1 hour
What
No it’s in an hour lol
Someone said tools
i gtg but i liek tools
1hr
I must admit I’m a little worried about the tools system, never been a fan of combat tools that you can’t replenish during the fight. Healing stuff is fine but it feels like it deincensitivizes (however you spell it) using them because you’ll just run out
that is somewhat up to the user to neglect using them for fear of running out
Yeah, it’s not an inherently bad system, I just think you have to be in the right mindset to utilize it properly, which I am not most of the time lol
Same, but that just means training yourself to use them
What I hope is that dying resets your tool count by default. That way you don’t have to run out of tools midway through your boss fight attempts
That tends to happen a lot in sekiro
you usually do
Well, you might have to worry about running out of shell shards.... Otherwise you could cheese the system for free tool uses by dying near a bench
because you respawn at benches and you probably get enough shell shards
That’s what I mean
I hope it doesn’t use up shell shards to craft back up your tool supply every time you die
I don't see why not, really. It might mean needing to grab a few shards if you die a ton, but, like, if you're dying that much maybe you should go look for upgrades anyways
And you'll probably be building up a stockpile of shell shards during exploration, so I imagine you'd have quite a few to go through before running out.
Unless you can't get an upgraded shard capacity or smth, but that just kinda seems like a no-brainer
Capping that at 500 permanently would suck, especially if tools have varying costs
Or, TC are clever and respawning at a bench after dying doesn't recraft tools
Eh, that just sounds like an extra step to get up and sit back down, and it doesn't solve cookie's concerns because the tool uses would still be gone
There's never really a reason not to sit down and fix the tools, since the cost to repair is reduced proportionately to how many uses you have left
And you can't switch off the tools without being on a bench, presumably
So it's just a question of whether the shards are used now or the next time you're at a bench, so might as well be now
I mean shell shards are saved upon death so like I’m sure repairing tools after death shouldn’t be that bad
The concern is if you end up dying repeatedly without gathering more, like against a tough boss
Maybe there will be an upgrade of some sort that gives you infinite shards but you can only hold a certain amount on you
Eventually the stockpile could run out, possibly necessitating a bit of grinding/pursuing other activities

Is this... actual silksong discussion in #sk-discussion?
Count me in, what's the topic
We always have theories
Idk why you would want to know, release theories are never bound in any sort of truth
fuck silksong news
lets ask for silksong olds
let's talk about uhh
Come back Tammo
this random screenshot I found on my hard drive
Do we know when the Escapist showcase will happen?

For the next 2 1/2 hours, sit back, relax and enjoy looks at over 70 upcoming indie games with exclusive reveals, developer diaries and more gameplay than you can handle. Then join us for the post-show from September 20 - 22 for more in-depth looks at a number of the games plus developer interviews wi...
28 minutes
yep
Damn, I won't be able to watch it live 
My bet: won't be Silksong. But I'm going to be watching for something else.
They already deconfirmed Silksong.
your bet? it's already confirmed to not be there
Then my bet was correct.
silksong was very interesting
Finally
PSA: Silksong is not going to be in any event unless it’s e3
Team Cherry will just randomly drop the trailer one day when they’re ready
Yeah it's probably going to end up this way
...Unless that's what they want you to think. 
Shit I'm being manipulated again why did I get vaxxed /s
It could show up at a direct someday
iirc Leth said they would've put the trailer in the direct that month if they knew about it
hi everyone
First game yay
Fuck yeah, Negative Atmosphere!
Nice pfp
What direct?
The one near the reveal trailer?
That’s why I just got corona instead 👍
Works like a charm
Ye
Also why do people always expect silksong in indie directs, it feels like it’s big enough to be in a normal one
It was deconfirmed
it feels like it big enough because it is
I don't think it'll be out until sometime next year. And that's the optimistic bet.
Ah well. It'll be worth the wait.
what even is this animal game they are showing
is it animal party
no it was button something
no wait other way around, party animals
the music is way to intense for the infection game trailer XD
its like freaking out because a guy shot another one
wow this direct sure likes animal games 
That last one was like 2D Vermintide.
Wasnt this on gamescom?
Is there an indie direct?

Looks nice so far
Thanks
some of those games in the trailer look sick
this
also crowsworn 
Still not there
Evil teacher.
what's your biggest awaited game ? (Not sure if this sentence even makes sense)
In the showcase or in general?
Other than SS
Kerbal Space Program 2 and Negative Atmosphere. And Elden Ring.
Deltarune Chapter 3 
Chapter 3, 4, and 5 since they will all be coming out at the same time
really?
MAGUS
but Toby could end up changing his mind again 😄
hopefully sooner than 3 years this time 
yeah, in the chapter 2 release note by Toby, he said he plans to release 3, 4 and 5 (along with 1 and 2) as a paid package next
Dungeoun maker oooo
Lets gooo
is the price for complete deltarune revealed?
what do you think about chapter 2? I think it was pretty good imo
chef's kiss
I prefered it over the first
I am only partly way through chapter 2 but love it so far
Much more interesting mechanics
I think it was really good but chapter 1 was better imo
I prefered the humor in chapter 1
Yeah the humor is different
are you guys still watching the direct?
Also i was lucky because chapter 2 was released soon after i finished chapter 1
U mean escapist
mhm
I think I've done the first "too many" times that I loose interest in it. I probably should have just played it once to be enjoyable
Yes
Is anyone hoping for slime rancher 2?
is crowsworn confirmed to be in this direct because i think i saw someone taking about it
Yes
i think that chapter 2 as a whole was better because of [hyperlink blocked]
In trailer for the showcase there is crowsworn
i didnt really play slime rancher 1 so idk i watched a ton o videos tho it looked great for the sequel tho idk it looks kinda of way to rainbowy
I'm guessing crowsworn is last
I only know that slime rancher speedruns are fun, I know someone who's into it and never gets bored of it so far
Can't say about the game as a whole because I've never finished it
who i know that pillow has been enjoying that game quite a lot but i dont think he speedruns it
INSIDE but with puppets
Honestly i dont even know how to finish the game but its still one of my favorite
So freaking wholesome
yeah same lol, it's like Terraria, I feel like you can't really finish it
I don't even know what an ending would be
How long is the escapist presentation supposed to be anyways
@rapid topaz did you play the steins game games i've thought about playing them but im not sure if they are really worth it
oh
2 hours and a half
God motherfucking damn
💀
I'm about 1/3 in the Steins;Gate game, but so far It's awesome. Probably the best visual novel I've played because everything makes sense if you think about it. It's also very realistic even though some sci-fi exist in their world. Maybe you should wait for a steam sale, they happen often
the anime is great both the normal one and 0 so
im just not sure if its really worth the price it prob is tho since its Steins; Gate
yeah the animes are freaking great
well i have to go bye
in the indie showcase?
Ye
It was announced on the xbox conference, i think its a tad beyond indie showcases

We miss bein...
Thanks 
Ooooo
So what did I miss from the Escapist showcase and is it still going?
silksong released
not yet
Ping me when Crowsworn shows up.
CROWSWORN
AAAAAAAAAAAA
its here
@gilded adder
it might just be the kickstarter trailer
Wait really?
same trailer
That's cool
Crowsworn!
Huh
lol...
damn
just to mess with this community even more
I was in the shower but it seems like I didn't miss much since it was just the kickstarter trailer, right?
Yea
The first trailer or second one
Oo roots of patcha
I want to play that
Nooo:(
Only steam and switch
This game is for 2255
Thats even later then silksong
Video games
Ayyyy
the new team cherry blogpost is coming out in 68 days

has crowsworn appeared yet
no
In the Escapist showcase? Yes, but it was just the kickstarter trailer.
for gameplay there'd have to be a game 
give them some time, they'll show something eventually
but I'd be surprised if they went far past proof of concept before kickstarter
Sspsa?

I need a bug that says sspsa in SilkSong
for Leth they could do a griffin bug 
what comes out first, deltarune chapters 3,4 & 5 or silksong?
you know it, i know it, we all know it
I don't though 
Silksong
I say silksong (hopefully)
must be nice 
chapter 2 just came out though
silksong
deltarune is late 2023 to early 2025
Yeah but it’s been one chapter per 3 years so far.
wait. you're saying deltarune will come out first but also that silksong is mid 2022?
nah toby is working faster now, he has a team and a baseline, the next chapter won’t take as long
Then again, Silksong literally has an undefined roadmap.
toby gives dev updates 🙂
Yeah, he assembled everyone he wanted and is picking up speed again.
yes.
TC is just quirky, i love them though they made the best game of all time
WE DID IT BOYS
man now i’m sad TC has infinite creativity
lmao
I hope aluo is doing well
I'm going robot mode
can't believe aluo was a foreign bot all this time
Beep beep boop
can anyone translate the binary
It says "alu"
can't fit the o?
Nah, binary is fucking long
that is incorrect
Proof?
it says"Alu"
Oh wait did it actually capitalize?
well your 1st utf-8 letter is capital A
i'm a normal humain being with normals needs like eating and drinking
half of those are from me so no biggie
you have watched rick astley's never gonna give you up for approximately 3000 years
and before you ask, yes I'm 3533.89 years old and heard the song constantly 24/7
you did the maths too 😠
What's this about fake Silksong ads?
Alu made one and put it on reddit, and then it got deleted lol
I see. Did Aluo caption it as a fake?
Nope
just a smidgen of trolling
I don't think the sub has a rule for that, but I could be misremembering
got excited for a second before seeing it was fake 
also can we get a hk themed trollface emote
That happened a while ago
there is one we just don't have it here
is what’s used for now
who would be the troll character
it can be Zube
I think it should be pktroll
when we get an actual high quality troll emote then it’ll be added
Nah, need a PK one.
I cannot take credit for that

No I posted in emoji form; thus no snail
In fact
i mean that's basically hornet
Nosk
no like if you look at her backstep animation from the trailer you can see she does have like six to eight legs that she can scuttle on for quicker movement
I thought it was just 4
I'm starting to think SS is a myth
good
Are you the Real Hunthustle?
No, he's HuntHussie
no, im hunthussie, my nickname is just memeing fanboying him
wdym "hands" Hornet doesn't have hands or arms, she has 4 legs
i just double checked the trailer it is 5 visible limbs

that's 4 limbs m8
Of course SS is real, I'm literally playing it rn
