sk-discussion

[elfin swift]

the date was pushed forward, ari teamcherry told me personally after i saved his life during a freak surfing accident last year

[marsh ibex]

Uh lemme check

About 10 minutes ago

[chilly nexus]

(someone quickly testify that the link in my name is an innocent lore doc )

[river kraken]

Ari came online where?

[neon talon]

WHAT

[chilly nexus]

came and went just before you did

[river kraken]

Nooo

[last oyster]

ok wait sorry what exactly happened

[river kraken]

Ari come back i love youuuu

[marsh ibex]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/586931790208434203/890381427001143296/image0.jpg

[river kraken]

Epiccccc

[marsh ibex]

yeah it’s 7:47 where I am rn

[last oyster]

I know the release date got (maybe) leaked but what is it?

[mortal grove]

of course someone took a screenshot

[neon talon]

thanks

[river kraken]

Hehe

[neon talon]

but seriously wtf

[primal oriole]

February 1 2022 (presumably they just put in February and didn't select a day)

[river kraken]

He probably was lurking us, this means they are scared.

[last oyster]

Huh thanks

[river kraken]

100% legit comfirmed hah.

[marsh ibex]

I mean as long as I’ve been here it’s only happened twice

and last time ari spoke was like

2018

[nimble steppe]

Facinating

[neon talon]

it's all hinting towards something which will turn out to be nothing again probably

[river kraken]

This is a very good sign and i just missed it.

[chilly nexus]

maybe he was being interviewed at close to the speed of light

[hollow terrace]

but why is Joker sharing false edited photos

[chilly nexus]

they spoke for hours, but in our reality it took seconds

[primal oriole]

he went online to start the call and then immediately went invisible

[river kraken]

Anyhow yeah i am 100000% sure ss will be out 6 months tops.

[formal karma]

Remember when everyone thought there was news coming because they liked a tweet? This is like that imo

[nimble steppe]

Remember that discord call that team cherry had way back when

[chilly nexus]

I do believe

[river kraken]

This is more substantial than that.

[chilly nexus]

and if not, all is chill (but I'm out of ideas for what they could be doing :p)

[marsh ibex]

I mean this is more leak+direct+ari online

Simplifying it that much kinda undervalues the point

[river kraken]

If they got online it means they are afraid. Had nothing to be afraid off they wouldn't get online probably.

Unless if it meant undo the claims.

[river kraken]

Correct.

[elfin swift]

whys it gotta be fear why cant they just be checking in to see how we feel because they care

[keen kiln]

Maybe they're just checking how people are responding to the leak

[elfin swift]

oh man remember when everyone thought news was coming because they took the website down for maintenance

[primal oriole]

Graig also asked when the next Direct was yesterday which is maybe a little weird, but also idk anything about when Directs happen so maybe there was already an expectation that it would be around now, or maybe Graig just naturally has the knowledge of how to cause maximum suffering in this chat

[keen kiln]

If they saw us hysterical and preparing a raid on Nintendo's offices, they might bother dispelling doubt.

[neon talon]

yeah but its a conscious decision to appear online

[hollow sedge]

Graig asked the same day Nintendo revealed a direct? interesting

[formal karma]

Graig can't be used as proof, but am down with Jokers Triforce

[primal oriole]

well, in Australia it was the night before

[keen kiln]

Graig absolutely has knowledge and will to mess with chat as much as possible.

[elfin swift]

well they're probably glad to know the server hasnt gone completely bonkers and can accept the leaked date was probably just a placeholder

[chilly nexus]

I literally main seraphine we'd go so well together if we were on the same server

[mortal bluff]

What’s this?

[neon talon]

yeah ari being online seems very suspicious to me, I think that's bigger than either of the other things tbh, becasue it means we KNOW something is up

[keen kiln]

owo

[nimble steppe]

There are people who are treating it like the gospel of silksong

[hollow sedge]

I dont think a playtester would know when a direct would be, i doubt it meant much

[formal karma]

Lead play tester...

[elfin swift]

no we've already defeated them on the field of ideological battle. their flag has been burned and their armies broken

[hollow sedge]

Only things that are catching my interest is Ari being online for a few hours + the placeholder date

[primal oriole]

I mean he probably would be told about it if TC knew, but I very much doubt he would intentionally do something like that

[chilly nexus]

na graig would 100% know whenever something ss is happening. if ss is in tomorrow's direct, he'd know when tomorrow's direct was happening

[elfin swift]

yeah i just hope the leak hasnt fucked with any plans they had for press releases or anything

[neon talon]

graig asking about the nintendo direct is another POSSIBLE flag, but not much

[mortal grove]

oh no... im feeling HOPE

[chilly nexus]

I just can't believe Graig mains Ashe but is on the oceanic server

[river kraken]

Imagine how cool if they had leaked a build.

[elfin swift]

that wouldve been really bad

[neon talon]

that will never happen

[hollow sedge]

I dont think he would know the exact date though

[river kraken]

Also it can be a beta right? The first one had one.

[marsh ibex]

Try 10 minutes

[formal karma]

Leaking a build would be a terrible betrayal

[chilly nexus]

Ari and Will would know, and they'd tell Graig I'm p certain

[river kraken]

Too late i am invading their homes.

[hollow sedge]

? wym

[neon talon]

he wasn't online for hours

[primal oriole]

I think the dev teams involved have to be told exactly when the direct will be? again I don't know how this all works but that's what makes sense to me

[formal karma]

He was a couple weeks ago wasn't he?

[marsh ibex]

he was on for like 10 minutes today

[hollow sedge]

im pretty sure he was, it was a few weeks back

[marsh ibex]

And a few weeks back wasn’t long either

[sterile sleet]

Wow this definitely means something

[elfin swift]

maybe he was just online to jump in his friends' dnd server for their bimonthly game night

[hollow sedge]

so he went online twice? 🕵️‍♂️ interesting

[neon talon]

but he was online for long enough.

This is so funny really that people are speculating just because a discord account was online for ten minutes

[chilly nexus]

speaking of bi... tomorrow is bi visibility day wooo everyone remove y'all's cloaks

[coarse leaf]

I mean, I heard a “leak” on the Reddit saying it could be February, but my rational thinking says no chance

[elfin swift]

one month a year when their cloaking devices go offline

[chilly nexus]

the leak was first shared in the Steam discussion boards

[rapid topaz]

Okay so, let's assume Ari went online. Wasn't he just "invisible" on discord in the meantime or was it like a true discord connection ?

[hollow sedge]

Nah a release date like that is def possible

[river kraken]

We can search for his messages.

[coarse leaf]

Just like V3 was possible

[hollow sedge]

I mean by Feb 2022 its gonna be 4 years now

[coarse leaf]

[elfin swift]

so its come up a few times but the leak was a huge list of game titles and dates from nvidia's servers. however because the date associated with silksong is so far off, it's almost certainly just a placeholder, not an actual date

[keen kiln]

i mean silksong is basically confirmed to be tomorrow at this point

[rapid topaz]

I mean you can technically be online without everyone knowing that with the invisible option

[keen kiln]

it would be insane if it wasn't

[mortal grove]

i will watch

[hollow sedge]

it isn't dont spread misinformation lmao

[coarse leaf]

I think I’d actually cry if it got announced

[rapid topaz]

I'm not talking about how many message he wrote

[coarse leaf]

I have no expectations, but it would certainly be a nice surprise

[hollow sedge]

we really don't know if it'll be there tommorow, dont get your hopes up too much

[marsh ibex]

he was idle

[keen kiln]

i'm just making fun of conspiracy theorists

[river kraken]

Maybe he didn't have to time to consider that.

[elfin swift]

they cant announce it i actively dont want news tomorrow im still working off my deltarune feelings if silksong gets sprung on me so soon after id go into cardiac arrest

[river kraken]

After 4 years offline he decides to show up today hehe.

[marsh ibex]

eh

[mortal grove]

chrome be careful this will be taken out of context

[marsh ibex]

Not 4 years

[river kraken]

I am so excited.

[marsh ibex]

He was online like 3 or 4 weeks back too

[primal oriole]

he was online a few weeks ago, and he was online in like October last year or something

[river kraken]

But didn't comment anything.

[keen kiln]

I fear not the mindless masses

[formal karma]

Can't cure Copium overdose

[marsh ibex]

Never mind that was months ago

[river kraken]

I will snort your whole copium supply.

[formal karma]

I ain't got no copium

[chilly nexus]

on the upside, the nintendo direct is for games coming this winter, so everything featured should be out before March!

[elfin swift]

let acceptance wash over you. become one with air. either there is or isnt news. every day that passes is regardless one day closer to silksong

[hollow sedge]

the placeholder date is Feb 2022, hold on a second

[fleet plaza]

Im so happy rn

[neon talon]

he always is, I don't think that means anything.
ari's definition of idle is way more online than online

[river kraken]

Silksong: Online 12/12/heat death of the universe.

[serene wave]

Watch the direct show Silksong

[chilly nexus]

like I said, I do think it was at the very least a goal of theirs at some point :p

some things are lining up, but I'm holding out for a big event like TGA

[elfin swift]

before they went into maximum overdrive and pushed the date forward by a month and a half

[chilly nexus]

I still can't believe they started crunch months in 2020*

[elfin swift]

oh jeez hope they havent been crunching

[nimble steppe]

I'd guess they eased up on crunch

[chilly nexus]

normally it's crunch weeks, and only 2-3 months before release to force the thing out

crunching for literal years and months at a time is craycray

[elfin swift]

hope they do something like what the supergiant games staff did during hades dev, mandatory no-work days every week

[marsh ibex]

No he’s not?

[cerulean sable]

iirc everytime hes been online, hes always set to idle afaik

[formal karma]

Hopefully we get copious amount of details regard silksongs be elopement after the fact...

[hollow sedge]

Ari is rarely online/idle

[marsh ibex]

If he was always idle he’d always show up on the sidebar

[chilly nexus]

I think they like their work too much to take unnecessary days off tbh :p save for maybe Jack. idk anyone who can code for that long

[hollow sedge]

a rare event indeeddd

[rapid topaz]

We've got so few informations, it's confusing for me to know If I should be excited or not of "Ari's going online for 10 minutes". This could mean absolutely nothing, this could mean Ari was invisible then turned back online by accident. Sorry to be such a non-believer though

[crisp summit]

the longer the game takes the better it'll probably be, i welcome the lack of info at this point

[chilly nexus]

don't wait through the direct for just SS, but if you want to feel hopeful, do so at your own risk knowing that it's maybe possibly rational but not all that likely 👍

[neon talon]

I meant that when he is on discord he's always on idle, that wasn't very clear

[wraith kernel]

they changed the thumbnail?

[marsh ibex]

no

[neon talon]

no?

[coarse leaf]

Nada?

[coarse leaf]

I really don’t see how this is a big deal

[wraith kernel]

Sorry then

[elfin swift]

there are multiple versions of the gameplay vid afaik, on diff channels

[chilly nexus]

the most hype nintendo treehouse for me was the BoTW one from a few years back

[hollow sedge]

Australia was founded on January 1st, coincidence? I think not

[neon talon]

agreed, but its so hard not to hope

[nimble steppe]

It gets easier with time

[formal karma]

It's easy not to hope. It's fine

[neon talon]

I know, I've been around for years. And yet something can still happen that makes you unsure

[elfin swift]

it is okay to hope. hope with all your heart if you must

[vernal veldt]

@coarse leaf - So Valentine's Day.

[cerulean sable]

Kiddos, I got a good feelin' everything's gonna be alright today.

[elfin swift]

yes

[neon talon]

define alright

[nimble steppe]

Unless you know something we don't

[formal karma]

As long as there's no nuke

[cerulean sable]

You'll see

[nimble steppe]

[neon talon]

[warm bone]

outer wilds switch port news

[rapid topaz]

Yeah I just don't want to be the guy that break all the hopes, it's fine if you do hope for SS at Ndirect. I just really don't understand the hype around Ari's going online.

[hollow sedge]

i feel bad for the mods man, tomorrow is gonna be a mess bruh

[formal karma]

Yup...

[marsh ibex]

Ttacco you’re not supposed to tell the masses about that stuff

[hollow terrace]

Do not believe these NVIDIA heretics

[marsh ibex]

also don’t feel bad for us we literally don’t have to do anything

we have exactly…zero commitments

[nimble steppe]

Don't worry I don't window

[coarse leaf]

My plan is that I'm going to wait until we get a definitive release date and then play Hollow Knight again so I can immerse myself in the hype again.

[hollow terrace]

believe in the December blogpost

[remote ridge]

they better annouce silksong tmr

[elfin swift]

id feel bad for anyone else getting a game featured tomorrow having to deal with shitty fans barking at them over silksong

[fleet plaza]

are you guys gonna watch the nintendo direct?

[warm bone]

ye

[neon talon]

just one thing... set the message cooldown to six hours

[warm bone]

not for silksong tho

[formal karma]

Yup. Don't expect silksong though

[coarse leaf]

Wait there's a direct tmr? Cool

[nimble steppe]

Like fools, naturally

[keen kiln]

lol no. the internet will tell me if anything happens.

[fleet plaza]

im not my hopes are already too high with Fireb0rns newest vid

[hollow sedge]

im watching the direct for the smash reveal/metroid dread news

[nimble steppe]

I'm sure they're will be amazing stuff even without ss

[elfin swift]

man i hope dread is a return to form for metroid. fusion was some of metroid's best, as a game and for samus's character

[hollow sedge]

also pikmin 4 as well

[keen kiln]

silksong competing for sales vs dread?

that would be bad

[formal karma]

O should look up fireworks vid.... but if it's just about Nvidia leaks then it's likely nothing

[chilly nexus]

dread will 100% be perfect fanservice + innovation. i have faith. (they're literally bringing back a 20 year old series, the thing's got expectations)

[rapid topaz]

Dread looks so fresh for 2D Metroid games ngl

[vernal veldt]

@hollow sedge - I hope to hear about Pikmin 4, but the best we'll get is the Pikmin Mobile game.

[neon talon]

I doubt silksong needs to worry about competing for anything

[elfin swift]

the worry i have from the past dread trailer was like, the protracted shot of samus's face through the visor with the chozo suit person choking her out, and potentially having a dichotomy of big powerful power suit vs weak vulnerable human inside

[coarse leaf]

Hey but does anyone remember that "Eastward" game at the last direct? I think it released recently and it looks pretty good.

[vernal veldt]

Silksong GOTY 2022

[hollow sedge]

sadly yes

[formal karma]

Without physical copy sales I doubt anything needs to compete these days

[vernal veldt]

@coarse leaf - Eastward is great.

[elfin swift]

cause like the best of samus isnt wow this character has a cool iron man suit, it's the person inside being unstoppable in the face of overwhelming odds, right

[rapid topaz]

I'm addict to this game now lol

[hollow sedge]

Silksong will sell more then Hollow Knight

[coarse leaf]

Dope, saw the trailer and it looks genuinely beautiful

[vernal veldt]

It is

[rapid topaz]

It's cool, if you enjoy pixel art it's just awesome to look at

[coarse leaf]

Also it gives me a Earthbound vibe which is always good

[vernal veldt]

Is there a Hell's Kitchen video game?

[cunning geode]

Cooking Simulator

[neon talon]

understatement of the century

[coarse leaf]

And it can satiate my hunger until Oddity releases whenever that is

[elfin swift]

ahh yeah eastward looks gorgeous

[vernal veldt]

I have been on a Gordon Ramsey Kick and just wonder what it would be like.

[elfin swift]

you can meet poggy thorax's ghost in hollow knight does that count

[vernal veldt]

Obviously it would be rated M for mature and not be on Nintendo platforms.

[rapid topaz]

Anyone waiting for Sea of Stars too ?

[coarse leaf]

Gordan Ramsey would be a good character for Dead By Daylight

[vernal veldt]

@rapid topaz - I have it preordered.

[proud vale]

Wow there’s some real pog accumulating for this direct

[coarse leaf]

Though they would have to censor it a lot

[rapid topaz]

New game from The Messenger devs (Sabotage Studio)

Paper Mario mechanics, basically pixel art rpg

[coarse leaf]

Oh Messenger, I loved that game though I haven't played those DLCs yet

[summer crystal]

hey guys, just popping in to make sure everyone has their expectations in check?

[coarse leaf]

Speaking of Paper Mario, has anyone heard of Bug Fables?

[empty tree]

silksong is coming out september 30

[elfin swift]

oh speaking of new games apparently ena is going to have a short adventure game for the bext episode

[summer crystal]

safe to assume no then

[empty tree]

ive done the calculations

[elfin swift]

silksong mathematics

[empty tree]

yes

[cerulean sable]

today, i will float mid air and explode into a million pieces

[nimble steppe]

A million taco vessels

[summer crystal]

mod color is nice in this server

[proud vale]

Taco we shall do it together

[cerulean sable]

orange, it is time to ascend

silksong is upon us

[rapid topaz]

Yeah me too. Also the french translation and jokes was so perfect I couldn't switch back to english lol

[summer crystal]

same color as mosscord mod color

[coarse leaf]

This feels like a meme Luke Correia would voice

[cerulean sable]

based

[cosmic sleet]

Speculation release date is awesome, but I'm not expecting anything SS related tomorrow. But I'm hoping to get more information on BotW 2

[empty tree]

here is the mathematics for silksong

[proud vale]

Let us ascend valiantly, brüther

[neon talon]

as you can see @summer crystal, our expectations are perfectly in order here and nothing is out of place

[summer crystal]

obviously

[hollow sedge]

i dont think there'll be BOTW news, since the direct is only covering up to winter 2022

[coarse leaf]

Dang, wish I could understand the language

[proud vale]

Here’s a thought… I wonder if the direct is at 8:00am for Australians because TC want to be able to view it properly?

[keen kiln]

dun dun duuuuun

[empty tree]

direct is gonna say "silksong will release in 1 week" and show this picture

100% real

[neon talon]

[summer crystal]

hey roflcopter why only 112%?

[dusty kettle]

is there a direct?

[empty tree]

does it even go up to 113%

[keen kiln]

8 am in australia and 8 in japanese is hachi and if you remove the "achi" it makes ham and we're going ham over silksong which means it's confirmed coming out tomorrow

[summer crystal]

shocking you haven't heard already

[rapid topaz]

Sabotage is a quebecois studio so it makes sense to have a decent french version, I think they even made the text in french then english, because there's a lot of really good sentences from what I've experienced

[languid linden]

Tomorrow yeah

[summer crystal]

it does if you're built different

[empty tree]

is 113% for people who beat p5

[torn star]

silksong is actually coming out tomorrow

[amber pulsar]

no

[dusty kettle]

There won't be any news tomorrow

[languid linden]

113% isn't an official thing

[empty tree]

yeah ik

[dusty kettle]

I'm betting my left eardrum

[coarse leaf]

Silksong is going to come out on July 16 2021

[languid linden]

I dunno exactly what it refers to, ask #hk-discussion

[empty tree]

no it comes out in 1 week and 1 day

on sep 30

[summer crystal]

113% refers to nothing, i am just being quirky and different

[amber pulsar]

silksong will come out in 1984

[torn star]

silksong has been out since 2017 we just haven't found the secret entrance in HK yet

[empty tree]

^

[amber pulsar]

vaatividya get on this

[dusty kettle]

If that was the case modders would have found it by now

[primal oriole]

there's a 3rd breakable wall in the Weaver's Den

[coarse leaf]

Modders don't have the power

[keen kiln]

r5ab getting beaten soon. the last barrier.

[gleaming palm]

Just watched some Fireborn, immediately rushed here to see what was going on

[torn star]

you unlock it by killing the 4th dreamer

[empty tree]

its just a placeholder date

[torn star]

whats the opposite of copium

[neon talon]

ari was online for ten minutes about half an hour ago

[coarse leaf]

To find the secret entrance to Silksong you need to equip the pendant as your starting gift

[keen kiln]

cynicism

[gleaming palm]

Probably honestly

[rapid topaz]

It's at the left-most in Howling Cliffs, just try hard enough against the wind

[torn star]

ur on that nopium

[keen kiln]

SOMEONE PLEASE TRY THIS FRFR!!!!!

[rapid topaz]

Eventually you'll reach a thing

[empty tree]

im on that releasing on sep 30th-ium

[warm bone]

it is a placeholder date

[gleaming palm]

I'm on the 50/50, just found out about it like 10 minutes ago

[cloud summit]

Silksong is hidden in HK, the way to access it to code it into it

[torn star]

i think feb 2022 is a perfeactly reasonable date imo

[gleaming palm]

Yeah same, I just don't want to get my hopes up too high

[empty tree]

yeah but its probably still a placeholder date

its just not as reasonable as sep 30

[torn star]

you know what dude. YOU'RE a placeholder date. get a load of that

[keen kiln]

I sure am

[coarse leaf]

Your mom is a placeholder date

[torn star]

no she isn't. she's a floozie who gets around

[nimble steppe]

My mom is a placeholder date

[keen kiln]

I'm actually the silksong access codes encrypted into a person

[dusty kettle]

silksong has been out since 2017 you just need to go into the game files and replace all the hollow knight files with silksong files and you're good to go

[coarse leaf]

Your mom is Flukemarm?!?!?!?!

[empty tree]

silksong released in june 2019

we are all just trapped in a nightmare where it never comes out

[dusty kettle]

The team cherry company is actually bankrupt

[empty tree]

and we will never get to play it until the tc devs snap their fingers 5 times and do a backflip

[spice plume]

Silksong released 8 seconds ago, king crimson just erased it

[nimble steppe]

[tiny glen]

No u gotta press up, up, down, left, right in the menu

[elfin swift]

it's taking longer than expected because thet decided to make it into two separate games, pokemon silk edition and pokemon song edition

[empty tree]

ohhhh

[torn star]

the only way to play silksong is to get one specific randomizer seed, the feb 2022 date is just their estimate of the time it'll take for someone to finally get it

[formal karma]

Haaaaaaaaa

[empty tree]

that makes sense

[elfin swift]

check your game's FUN value, you need to talk to all the gaster followers in a specific order to unlock the silksong loadscreen

[tiny glen]

Silksong doesn’t exist this is just a long dream wake up

[torn star]

thats not true. my name really is kevin finnerty

[coarse leaf]

Your real name is Joe Mama lmao

[torn star]

what the fuck

[cloud summit]

if you manage to set up a timeloop today and randomly generate a huge project character per character at each loop, there is a 100% chance of Silksong releasing today

[elfin swift]

the real silksong is the friends we made along the way

[torn star]

fuck a friend. i want to be hornet

[vivid belfry]

Whoping cough

[torn star]

i want to say hakanas segamos and SHAA

[marsh ibex]

whoping

[coarse leaf]

Silksong is actually a class 5 memetic hazard

[marsh ibex]

hey grover

[rapid topaz]

maybe the real Nintendo direct were the swordmens in smash along the way

[torn star]

ADIIDA

[marsh ibex]

So grovy what do you think of the “leaks”

[vivid belfry]

It's da jokah baby!

What leaks

[keen kiln]

gas leaks

in ss-discussion. mass hallucinations

[vivid belfry]

Not a fan of gas leaks

[sterile sleet]

Leeks

[languid linden]

Damn hope you get better

[sterile sleet]

The vegetable

[marsh ibex]

the release date leak for silksong

[rancid crow]

when is direct?

[marsh ibex]

Tomorrow

[glossy gazelle]

Tomorrow

[vivid belfry]

I didn't see it

[keen kiln]

Didn't see it didn't happen

[rapid topaz]

21 hours and 30 minutes from now

[vivid belfry]

The release date is tomorrow?

[glossy gazelle]

[vivid belfry]

[coarse leaf]

No, it's yesterday

[marsh ibex]

iirc it’s feb 1st 2022

[quartz jacinth]

FEBRUARY 1ST 2022

[languid linden]

man

[quartz jacinth]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[vivid belfry]

Sounds fake, November 19th forever

[elfin swift]

february 1st 20,220

[languid linden]

It is a placeholder date

[spice plume]

It’s overmorrow

[wheat lintel]

early 2018

cant wait for G&G to drop

[vivid belfry]

What metaphorical bucket did this leak come from

[marsh ibex]

Nvidia geforce

[wheat lintel]

it came from the nvidia geforce thing

[rapid topaz]

2019 at valentines day seems pretty reasonable

[marsh ibex]

also your alt came online earlier

[rancid crow]

yeah the real date will be announced at direct

[wheat lintel]

however the info itself is speculative

[empty tree]

the real date is sep 30

[keen kiln]

So did TC ever deliver on that second playable character thingy they promised

[cerulean sable]

our eyes are yet to open

[vague heath]

silksing out yesterday

[empty tree]

that is silksong

[cerulean sable]

the 2nd playable character is literally silksong

[coarse leaf]

We need to level our insight and adaptability to 99

[vivid belfry]

Benji?

[marsh ibex]

No ari

[languid linden]

Ari was on for about 30 seconds

[vivid belfry]

Wack

[languid linden]

Or at least it was about 30 seconds between someone noticing and him going offline

[cerulean sable]

they were like "bruhhh hornet gotta be acrobatic and shit, but the environments of hallownest are too fucking cramped so lets just make another game on another fucking kingdom instead lmao ez"

[marsh ibex]

Was actually 5 minutes

[languid linden]

oh

[vivid belfry]

That is sus

[keen kiln]

... so I was tooken seriously

[vivid belfry]

However I no longer have silksong withdrawal so it doesn't matter

[marsh ibex]

you’re not a took

[cerulean sable]

tbf there are legitimately people who doesnt know silksong yet

[vivid belfry]

And thank fucking God honestly

[marsh ibex]

Who don’t

not who doesn’t

[coarse leaf]

Fun Fact: On the day Silsong was announced I had a history test that I got 100% on

[keen kiln]

I feel like I've been here for a while though

[vivid belfry]

Deltarune chapter 2 taking long enough to come out that I stopped caring probably profoundly helped my experience

[elfin swift]

john mcdoesntknow, who famously does not know a wide variety of things. silksong can't come out until he's been informed it exists

[keen kiln]

Not a newcomer in the community

[vivid belfry]

I will apply the same tactic here

[rapid topaz]

that's the power of silksong

[cerulean sable]

back then ive legit seen people in subs saying
"God Hollow Knight was my favorite, cant wait for whatever game they do next"
"Yeah same, cant wait for Silksong"
"Whats Silksong"

[rancid crow]

tru

[elfin swift]

it was deduced using advanced spidermath

[empty tree]

yeah

[vivid belfry]

Ew you watch subs?

[empty tree]

i drew this thing and if you need more proof then you can rot in hell

[nimble steppe]

Sub sandwiches

[rancid crow]

clearly official art

[fleet plaza]

when silk song comees out imma take some time on my own to work out the lore and then watch vids

[elfin swift]

as we all know, spiders have 8 legs. hornet is the main character, and is 1 person, so you have to add 1 to that. 9, the 9th month of the year, september. and 30 is hornet's favorite number of course so that's where that date comes from

[empty tree]

yeah team cherry sent it to me via fax

[spice plume]

Same, don’t want it spoiled like I was for hk

[rapid topaz]

my uncle works at... Nevermind he lost his job

[cerulean sable]

battleforge nimble 2hander defo level matk mdef and hp everytime (only if you hit 4) then patch them fatigue every few levels

[empty tree]

my friend clutched up so hard and told me to avoid looking up any hollow knight things so it wouldnt get spoiled

[fleet plaza]

im sad that I watched mossbags vid before I played the game, but then again I had never heard of hollow knight untill i watched the vid

[spice plume]

Lucky

[elfin swift]

7 days to outer wilds dlc release though so at least we got that to tide us over

[rapid topaz]

OH

[elfin swift]

YEA DOG IT'S COMING OUT IN ONE WEEK

[rapid topaz]

Almost forgot lmao

[empty tree]

and on a more important note my singing monsters playgrounds comes out in november

[neon talon]

sadly I also got spoiled for hollow knight, I intend to make sure the same doesn't happen before I've played silksong

[elfin swift]

i haven't replayed outer wilds since my very first time last year, so excited to get back to it again

[empty tree]

and btd battles 2 is coming out soon

which is the going to be the best game ever created

[ashen canyon]

im dying

[frank fossil]

Is ss deconfirmed for tomorrow yet

[empty tree]

no itll be in direct

[marsh ibex]

Excuse me what??

[rapid topaz]

no but yes

[fleet plaza]

I pray

[marsh ibex]

bro i played the shit out of the first btd battles

Hate how i needed a facebook acc for it tho

[frank fossil]

:
?

[fleet plaza]

probably not, there showing winter games

[empty tree]

they are going to announce the sep 30 release date

[rapid topaz]

we don't know

[frank fossil]

Ok

[rapid topaz]

I mean, possible to happen but very unlikely

[marsh ibex]

mfw

[rapid topaz]

Imo

[ashen canyon]

lets fucking goooooooooooo

[fleet plaza]

"some Hollow knight playes cracked the code and worked out the release date: through spider math, 30th OF SEPTEMBER!!!"

[elfin swift]

oh shit oh shit i completely forgot sable is coming out tomorrow!

[stable current]

Nintendo has announced that the next nintendo direct will take place tomorrow and will focus mainly on the Nintendo switch games coming out this winter. the broadcast will last approximately 40 minutes

[ashen canyon]

ngl when Quincy talked in BTD6, i lost all hope

[empty tree]

take the some out and put A in cause im the only one who did anything with this

[empty tree]

btd 6 was crazy though

[elfin swift]

japanese breakfast ost baybee

[ashen canyon]

yep, am still playing it

[empty tree]

good 2 hear

[fleet plaza]

Im taking your credit for the spider math HHEHEHE

[ashen canyon]

but like, he talked

[empty tree]

yeah ik

[ashen canyon]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[empty tree]

"i am quincy, son of quincy"

it was very bad

[iron spear]

gforce have done it again

cracked the code

[fleet plaza]

there incredably smart

[marsh ibex]

hey graig

[ashen canyon]

ngl i dont believe gforce did what they did back then

[chilly nexus]

Graig what are the odds you'll move to north america

[marsh ibex]

what do you think about feb 1st 2022

Completely random question

[elfin swift]

graig are you excited for sable's release tomorrow

[chilly nexus]

my seraphine wants to play with your ashe

[empty tree]

i think feb 1st 2022 is the 1st of febuary

[keen kiln]

graig thinks?

[obsidian juniper]

Hi you all
How are you doing?

[ashen canyon]

graig are you graig

[marsh ibex]

also your opinion on pineapple on pizza

[iron spear]

i went to bed early last night at like 10pm and at like 10:30pm they leaked that date and i missed all the chaos im so pissed

[marsh ibex]

yeah

[empty tree]

and that silksong is coming out sep 30

[keen kiln]

I thought he was a being of pure instinct

[fleet plaza]

1st feb 2022 is a place holder, September 30th 2021 is the correct

[hollow sedge]

feb 1st 2022 sounds like a good day for silksong too release

[empty tree]

sep 30 sounds better

and it WILL release on sep 30

[iron spear]

I think pineapple can be ok on pizza but when used with other ingredients and used sparsely. Ham and Pinepple is a bit much for me

[empty tree]

i have done the math atleast 50 times

[rapid topaz]

Lol

[chilly nexus]

I really enjoy eating just raw pineapple

unless it's too acidic, then can't for my teeth

[serene chasm]

I too love having acid melt my mouth

[empty tree]

pineapple on pizza adds a more refreshing taste to the pizza, if you combine it with ham though it kinda ruins that

[opaque sigil]

This 100%, why let your perfectly good pineapple get greasy

[rapid topaz]

pineapple is decent

[elfin swift]

ham and pineapple together is for people who want to taste a lot of Stuff while simultaneously tasting something ultimately flavorless

[hollow sedge]

A pizza should never be sweet

[marsh ibex]

and the feb 1st 2022 question

[chilly nexus]

it can definitely add a nice sweetness on pizza, but it distracts me from the sauce a bit

[coarse leaf]

Jesus wept

[chilly nexus]

Sera and Ashe Graig, let's do it

[empty tree]

its not gonna happen mr mate here told me in our dms that it is coming out sep 30

[iron spear]

like roasted capsicum, roasted pineapple actually go together very nicely. Add a few more things like that you got yourself a nice pizza

[sullen fractal]

Someone summon leth so he can tell me it's not happening tomorrow

[empty tree]

see

[nimble steppe]

Hi graig

[iron spear]

feb 1st 2022?

[keen kiln]

Graig, do you know any good recipes I could learn?

[empty tree]

it is 100%

[marsh ibex]

graig totally likes wood burning pizza ovens

[empty tree]

who doesnt like wood burning pizza ovens?

[iron spear]

ya got me

[marsh ibex]

I don’t

[sullen fractal]

no pls don't get my hopes up

[marsh ibex]

Never used one

[nimble steppe]

I literally just made pulled chicken tacos

[elfin swift]

a person made of wood, or a person made of pizza, would probably not enjoy wood-burned pizza

[empty tree]

i have done the math it is 100% happening

[fleet plaza]

I know spider math points to Sep 30, But I used time math to double-check it and its correct, In Back to The Future, Marty McFly traveled 30 years back in time and we all know hollow knight was based on back to the future and Grand parents day happens in spetember and we all know that team cherry are old

[marsh ibex]

bro i forgor iselwyr can cook

[empty tree]

Australia has 9 letters, 9th month = september

[marsh ibex]

anyways gn

[fleet plaza]

we are giving STRAIGHT MATHS

[empty tree]

theres no way to deny it

[sullen fractal]

silksong has 9 letters too if you can't count

[opaque sigil]

gn, don't forget to pray for tomorrow to whatever deity or other supernatural entity you so choose

[hollow sedge]

if australia was founded on january 1st wouldn't that mean silksong would come out 1 month after that, per quantum fluctuations?

[keen kiln]

pharloom also has 8 letters, and so does 8 am, which is the time of tomorrow's direct. it'll be in august

[elfin swift]

and spiders have 8 legs

[fleet plaza]

I dont need to, I have math

[chilly nexus]

Me telepathically asking Graig if he thinks my misc replies to his old messages are fun and quirky. his telepathic response: "they're not"

[rapid topaz]

Plural silksong actually have so that's ok. silksongs

[nimble steppe]

Pulled chicken, stewed with onions and whole jalapeños and habeneros

[empty tree]

nope

[cerulean sable]

graig what do you feel about fearsome gunner builds

[opaque sigil]

Math works, pray to Calculo, lord of numbers

[fleet plaza]

Im Ari's 9th child its hapening on september

Thats good. We dont want you coming here dirty

[hollow sedge]

the lead gardener for team cherry

[chilly nexus]

TC's lead playtestter and general server fun dude

[empty tree]

does he grow cherrys?

[chilly nexus]

i think we had a falling out at one point though

[elfin swift]

australia has 6 states; the knight can obtain 5 separate movement abilities (not including shade cloak). 6 times 5 is 30. september 30th

[chilly nexus]

it's a sad story

[coarse leaf]

No, he grows moss fruit

[stable current]

Geforce Now Silksong realese 2 February 2022 whattttt?

[empty tree]

then why is he in team cherry and not team moss fruit???

[coarse leaf]

Shut up

[fleet plaza]

We have done thosands of different maths questions and they all end with september 30ths

[hollow sedge]

Fireb0rn what have you caused lmao

[empty tree]

im asking important questions here

[rapid topaz]

(jokes asides, it's the lead play tester)

[coarse leaf]

No one asked lmao

[empty tree]

i did

[chilly nexus]

check the link in ma name for SS lore folks if you want it^

[elfin swift]

moss fruit is necessary to keep off scurvy, which is a real danger when you're a bug living underground without other sources of vitamin c

[empty tree]

lmfao thats totally a virus

[coarse leaf]

No you didn't, I have erased your existence from reality

[empty tree]

then why am i still here?

[chilly nexus]

it's a v innocent google drive doc dw

[coarse leaf]

Your mom

[chilly nexus]

if it was a virus the mods would probably have issue with it :p

[keen kiln]

...

[fleet plaza]

Team cherry always have scurvy to keep there mind jucies flowing

[elfin swift]

it's a critical part of their creative process yeah

[chilly nexus]

pineapple keeps scurvy away

[empty tree]

think about it guys. 5 People are apart of team cherry and cherry has 6 letters. 5x6 =30

[elfin swift]

every morning they wake up and make sure they've given themselves scurvy before moving on to level design, bug fixing, and animation

[fleet plaza]

the lore's almost as weird as rain world

[chilly nexus]

William says there is no lore, and that is cannon (but Ari says otherwise, and that is also cannon)

[elfin swift]

i've been thinking of playing rain world, it looks gorgeous and atmospheric and a real special experience, but i've heard it can be brutally punishing and stressful

[fleet plaza]

cat slugs pog

[empty tree]

there are no cannons in hollow knight

[chilly nexus]

that's also cannon

[empty tree]

no how is my text a cannon

[chilly nexus]

it's shaped like one

[empty tree]

that doesnt make any sense

[nimble steppe]

Uncanon cannon

[rapid topaz]

can I be cannon

[empty tree]

my text is canonically not a cannon

[chilly nexus]

ye you're also approximately cannon shaped

[empty tree]

is that canon?

[chilly nexus]

ofc it's cannon, it's linear

[opaque sigil]

Anything's approximately cannon shaped if you're generous enough with the word "approximately"

[chilly nexus]

[coarse leaf]

It is, I still haven't finished it

[empty tree]

but im just saying you guys will be crying and i will be laughing when sep 30 is announced as the release date

[coarse leaf]

But it is pretty dope

[coarse leaf]

September 30 2030

[opaque sigil]

idt anybody would be upset about a sept 30 rd, it just isn't realistic

[fleet plaza]

2021

[chilly nexus]

I feel like SS anticipators are like 1989 (taylor's version) anticipators but with another cosmetic flavour

[fleet plaza]

WHAHHAhAHT

[coarse leaf]

It was a joke

[elfin swift]

september 2021st

[fleet plaza]

30 september 2021

[empty tree]

you arent realistic

september 30 2021

[fleet plaza]

I guess people dont believes in math

[empty tree]

is 100% the release date and if you disagree you are going to ultra mega hell

[desert basin]

September 30 2021

[opaque sigil]

Ultra mega hell sounds dope

[iron spear]

what date did the gforce thingo say

[empty tree]

it is not dope

[runic adder]

November 19th gang ✊

Silk song isent in omega mega hell

[empty tree]

feb 1st 2022

[opaque sigil]

[empty tree]

it is so wrong since its gonna be sep 30 2021

[wheat lintel]

guys youre all wrong

[fleet plaza]

if its not sep 30 2021 then its nov 30 2021

[wheat lintel]

early 2018

[iron spear]

also why did they say anything about silksong? lol

its not like its a graphical game

[cerulean sable]

knightmere you didnt even go through the alpha phase

[warm bone]

Placeholder

[iron spear]

seems weird they would even care

[opaque sigil]

They didn't, the database was leaked, SS was in it

[wheat lintel]

it wasnt just silksong it was like a massive breach

[elfin swift]

if you want an actual update on anything missed in this chat in the last 24 hours, what i've seen from lurking here all day is that most people's consensus is the leaked date is an old placeholder and we should temper any and all expectations

[wheat lintel]

entire database basically

[empty tree]

no its dec 3 if not sep 30

[chilly nexus]

the nvidia leak was last week (reported by.. moi (jk i ripped it from steam discussion boards)) but only blew up recently because of a fireborn vid

[iron spear]

i see, welp..... feb 1st going to be real interesting around here

[empty tree]

no it wont

[opaque sigil]

[empty tree]

because silksong is coming out sep 30 2021

[wheat lintel]

feb 1st ill be busy with elden ring

[empty tree]

for real

[desert basin]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hell

[cyan tartan]

Feb 1 is going to be the release date

for the next Silksong news post

[wheat lintel]

i hope the other mods got my back!!

[toxic dock]

and now taking this out of context

we have our release date confirmed

[wheat lintel]

you literally cannot take anything graig says out of context hes always shitposting

[warm bone]

Wooo time to take his message out of context and write numerous articles about it

[iron spear]

Thank you I try me best

[rotund aurora]

I know I shouldn’t be hoping, but here I am

[opaque sigil]

Can't take something out of context when there's no context in the first place

[runic adder]

Thanks Graig for confirming the date 🙏

[empty tree]

omg guys graig confirmed the sep 30 release date no way

[cerulean sable]

also it wasnt just for Gforce in general

it was for something called GForce now?

and apparently its a streaming thing

[wheat lintel]

thats their subscription thing yeah

[empty tree]

wait new date calculation just came in

[iron spear]

what else got leaked?

[cerulean sable]

God of War

[wheat lintel]

god of war for pc

[cerulean sable]

Demon Souls

[warm bone]

Ur mom

[opaque sigil]

A whole bunch of random stuff

[wheat lintel]

bioshock 2022 was there lmao

its like a shitton of stuff

no bloodborne though

[cerulean sable]

which is expected kinda, because God of War 2 is gonna release soon, and PS is doing the strat where they release old games to make people buy new gen consoles for the sequel

[toxic dock]

thats cause bloodborne is a bad game

[empty tree]

the G-Force movie came out january 6th 2009. 2021-2009 = 18 6+18 =24 JANUARY 24TH RELEASE DATE 100% CONFIRMED

wait thats not right

[wheat lintel]

look ill forgive that one because of the tasque manager pfp but another statement like that will get you sent to hades

[empty tree]

messed up my math

[toxic dock]

cope

[cerulean sable]

but yeah no shit like GTA 6

[wheat lintel]

bruh cope

mola is that you

[empty tree]

the G-Force movie came out january 6th 2009. 2021-2009 = 12 6+12 =18 JANUARY 18TH RELEASE DATE 100% CONFIRMED

[toxic dock]

who

[cerulean sable]

there was the GTA trilogy remastered, but that also got leaked months ago

[wheat lintel]

glad you understand

[cerulean sable]

[opaque sigil]

This channel is draining my life force stg

[iron spear]

feb 14th is the true release date

[fleet plaza]

Old mate confirmed sep 30

[empty tree]

you mistyped sep 30th

[cerulean sable]

see this is the graig tactic

[fleet plaza]

sep 30 you mean

[warm bone]

Make it 23rd (that’s my birthday)

[wheat lintel]

november 12th guys

[desert basin]

No context graig is my favorite thing

[opaque sigil]

19

[iron spear]

14th feb is valentines day. so we can all be with our waifu

[cerulean sable]

graig is known for shitposting, so by saying itll release on Feb 14 people go "oh lol its definitely not true anymore because graig shitposts" but thats exactly what he wants to distract you with the fact that if we dont get news by the end of this year, well definitely get it on the anniversary

[wheat lintel]

graig we gotta ban you for that one

[odd marten]

must be true then

[opaque sigil]

Although 11/12 is pretty close to my birthday

[cyan tartan]

Goodbye Graig

[elfin swift]

if you want an actual update:
-fireb0rn posted a vid about a silksong date being in part of the massive nvidia leak from last week
-(feb 1st, 2022 was the date in the nvidia data)
-however, it's extremely unlikely this is an actual release date, and is almost certainly just a placeholder
-plus people allowing themselves tentative, fragile hope over potential news at the nintendo direct tomorrow

[cyan tartan]

Nice knowing you

[runic adder]

TRUE!

[wheat lintel]

cope

[cerulean sable]

am i wrong tho

[empty tree]

guys i am actually graigs alt account and the release date is sep 30th 100% real i am not fake at all

[cerulean sable]

nvidia is in damage control right now

[toxic dock]

yeah you are

[woven aspen]

Are we getting news tomorrow on the Nintendo direct?

[glossy gazelle]

Yeah this is a good summary

[cerulean sable]

ive learned to ignore such naysayers

[nimble steppe]

Naaaaay

[opaque sigil]

Unknown, probably not

[glossy gazelle]

We don’t know

[odd marten]

obv just like every other direct Copium

[woven aspen]

I hope so

[cyan tartan]

the only time graig is right iswhen he doesnt say it

whats a guy gotta do to get rid of this slowmo thing its annoying as hell

[loud quiver]

The leak said Feb 1st

[cerulean sable]

its for the best

[empty tree]

what if like only i didnt have slowmo

[glossy gazelle]

Okay here’s a good joke for you: That release date being real

[empty tree]

that would be pretty fair i think

[loud quiver]

I trust his release date

[keen kiln]

then there would be no point for the slow-mo

[cerulean sable]

i legitimately dont care what others say i feel like an anniversary release is plausible

[loud quiver]

Sep 30th sounds better

[iron spear]

hey taco i actually love your pfp

and i love you

[cerulean sable]

especially if they choose to not release any substantial info from here until january

[empty tree]

Remember mods, remove image perms for this channel tomorrow

I don't care what Team Cherry says. The game is coming out tomorrow whether they want it to or not.

not as much as i love you 😳

[nimble steppe]

Good idea

[empty tree]

no its coming out sep 30

[glossy gazelle]

Rare #sk-discussion wholesome moment

[ionic berry]

no its coming out yesterday

[elfin swift]

feb 14th and i can finally ask hornet to be my valentine

[loud quiver]

As far as I’m concerned it’s already out

[chilly nexus]

I loved taco first

[ionic berry]

out of this world ... bdmm tss

[still owl]

fuck you go back to arguing

[empty tree]

nothing to argue about sep 30 release date confirmed

by graig himself

[loud quiver]

I thought we were supposed to be funny

[still owl]

I will find something if I must then

[mortal grove]

omg i can finally date the citadel paladin

[keen kiln]

you're right, roflcopter. It's much funnier the seventeenth time.

[cerulean sable]

sorry doc but graigs already taken me

[empty tree]

im not joking

[runic adder]

Let’s have a prequel/sequel debate

[ionic berry]

damn cold

[chilly nexus]

Graig, #hotwheels_beatThat:

[cerulean sable]

ok nvm

[glossy gazelle]

Except if the joke was never funny

https://tenor.com/view/impressed-awsome-gif-21682147

[glossy gazelle]

[elfin swift]

silksong is to hollow knight what deltarune is to undertale. this is actually a completely different incarnation of hornet. it is neither a prequel nor sequel

[keen kiln]

It's a fan AU they made canon

[runic adder]

Holy shit Silksong is in Deltarune

[empty tree]

ok new theory

[cyan tartan]

Parallelstoryquel

[cerulean sable]

or they dont mention an ounce of HK's ending at all

[ionic berry]

its a mequel

[rotund aurora]

Do you think they’ll make an announcement at the direct?

[glossy gazelle]

Well actually it’s a bit different, Deltarune is a parallel timeline. SS isn’t

[still owl]

Nope

[cerulean sable]

if they want they can always go the "tiMe In HAlloWnesT iS cOnVOluted" angle

[empty tree]

what if it is both a prequel and a sequel, all of pharloom happens before the events of hollow knight happen, then you have to guide the knight to the right ending and then the game continues

[nimble steppe]

Bloodborne to DS

[rotund aurora]

I mean, if they made the change recently, it would make sense if they were going to announce it here

[cyan tartan]

Silksong takes place at the same time as Hollow Knight. The Hornet you see in HK is just Nosk the whole time

[chilly nexus]

SS happens between the hornet 1 and 2 fight in HK. That's why hornet can use the little spiky balls in hornet 2

[mortal grove]

maybe this isnt even about hornet what if its just young herrah

[elfin swift]

silksong is a parallel timeline. we'll see an alternate version of the knight, still alive, who never went back to hallownest

[runic adder]

It’s certainly possible and I don’t want to be too pessimistic but idk

[vernal veldt]

What would you like to see from a third game by Team Cherry in the Hollow Knight Universe? Another Lead Bug, or maybe a prequel on how Hallownest was established?

[cerulean sable]

Silkshock: Infinite

[empty tree]

they are 100%

[still owl]

TTacco, you can’t spew corporate nonsense like that

[rotund aurora]

I think it’s def more likely cause the leak

[unkempt sequoia]

[nimble steppe]

Bloodsong or Silkborne

[cerulean sable]

how is this corporate nonsense, im not even talking about synergizing to create possibilities and innovation to kickstart potentials to create opportunities

[empty tree]

bloodsong sounds cooler

[rotund aurora]

Bloodsong

[loud quiver]

I think a 3D zote rouge like is clearly in play

[runic adder]

I’d love to see a prequel set in Hallownest before the infection

[vernal veldt]

A Grimm Troupe Game?

[fleet plaza]

the date for silk songs first contact pack is on 2022 april 26th

[rotund aurora]

Quirrel game?

[keen kiln]

soulsilk is a soulslike

[mortal grove]

i want a pale king or pure vessel comic

[elfin swift]

silksong is the timeline where the pale king's experiments with void in the white palace caused the entire underground to sink into the lake of the abyss, eradicating the radiance and the PK simultaneously. this is the optional abyss lake level tc mentioned in the kickstarter, which you can visit in the silksong postgame when returning to the ruins of hallownest

[iron spear]

I think the best way to do it would just be to make Silksong's revenue go into my bank account. That way it legitimizes all HK endings as canon and doesn't break anything.

[empty tree]

yeah probably

[gilded adder]

Hello Graig

[iron spear]

JONNY

[ionic berry]

how about mine so that there is no conflict of intrest

[cloud summit]

a Quirell game prequel to HK would be cool I guess, but we probably will see a more interesting character in Silksong for a sequel to be based on

[empty tree]

what if hollow knight became a cookie clicker

[iron spear]

the god who sits atop the pantheon of mods!

[rotund aurora]

[nimble steppe]

silent roar

[vernal veldt]

I have the title of third game: Hollow Knight: Pale Dawn

[chilly nexus]

what happend to ttaco 👀

[gilded adder]

You're too kind.

[reef scarab]

Hey Graig guess what

[loud quiver]

Candy crush style mobile game with the Owen Wilson mushrooms

[fleet plaza]

Hollow knight: Bob marley edition

[still owl]

Consumed, for his flavor was too powerful.

[cyan tartan]

Serious discussion in #sk-discussion ? Gross

[rotund aurora]

It can’t be a coincidence that the release date was just leaked and there’s a direct soon

[empty tree]

3rd game will be titled Hollow knight: Roflcopter was right

[iron spear]

what been happening in jonny world

[rotund aurora]

No way

[reef scarab]

yes it can

[cyan tartan]

[empty tree]

because im right about the sep 30 release date

[vernal veldt]

@cyan tartan - I could just post my meme again

[elfin swift]

here's my hot take. silksong can follow up a specific ending of hollow knight and that doesn't make any of the other endings less 'canon' because canon is a fake concept; in the context of hollow knight, all endings are a part of the story of the game when taken as a whole, and because it is a story that did not happen in real life and can not be fact-checked, no ending is more real than any other

[chilly nexus]

in my best hannah montana voice: goodnight everybody (except not goodnight, i'm going to work)

[rotund aurora]

It’s literally less than a day away

[opaque sigil]

It really can. Less likely things happen all the time

[still owl]

Something like this happened before, with Steam. Expect nothing

[steep falcon]

What the fuck

[rotund aurora]

Well I think this is more legit

[loud quiver]

[still owl]

How is this more legit lol.

[coarse leaf]

crazy that a release date was leaked when its actually releasing in 30 minutes

[warm bone]

Not really

[gilded adder]

Nothing much, just been taking a new class on App Development and Design which has been quite fun. Also, I'm waiting on Outer Worlds DLC and sale so I can pick up both the base game and the DLC and play them for the first time.

[rotund aurora]

I guess we disagree then.

[warm bone]

Outer wilds

[loud quiver]

Space invaders but with gorb

[vernal veldt]

@cyan tartan

[runic adder]

Team Cherry said they’d account for all endings in future content though

[still owl]

they have!

[rotund aurora]

That’s why I guess it’s a prequel

[cyan tartan]

#sk-discussion: Super Stupid Discussion

[rotund aurora]

Also, this one makes sense

[empty tree]

Hollow knight: fanbase has gone mentally insane

[still owl]

You haven’t explained your reasoning yet is my issue

[opaque sigil]

June 12 "made sense" at the time

[tepid lynx]

we been there a while man

[steep falcon]

What the fuck happened

[runic adder]

All endings work for Silksong and most likely none of the endings will really be important to the game

[empty tree]

im aware

[rotund aurora]

Well, the fact that this one is later down the road makes it make more sense

[warm bone]

I mean the date that was given for release literally says “null” so idk how people can take it farther than a placeholder

[loud quiver]

Hear me out: Warioware but with dung defender

[nimble steppe]

Nonsense

[empty tree]

||what about the one where hornet gets sealed inside the egg||

[steep falcon]

Are the leaks actully real

[rotund aurora]

That’s only like one backup

[cyan tartan]

Sealed Siblings would like to know your location

[steep falcon]

I’m so confused pls help me I’m so confused

[nimble steppe]

Most likely endinh

[still owl]

Can be explained, since we know the bugs of Pharloom have seal breaking bugs

[runic adder]

And seal breaking bugs would like to know yours

[nimble steppe]

It'd be so easy for pharloom bugs to pick her up and stuff her in the cage

[elfin swift]

accounting for all of them imo doesn't mean the plot literally has to reference either all of them equally or none of them, just that the whole that's created from all the endings being a part of the game and their themes and ideas will be respected

[vernal veldt]

Isn't Silksong set before Hollow Knight?

[nimble steppe]

No fighting necessary

[mortal grove]

if silksong gets in the direct the people with hope are gonna rub it in our wounds

[rotund aurora]

We don’t know

[still owl]

Most likely not Mack, but you choose your interpretation

[rotund aurora]

I think it probably will be.

[cyan tartan]

"I pretty much can't go in there or I'll totally die"

• Hornet
  I may have paraphrased slightly

[steep falcon]

I hope it isn’t

[empty tree]

i think silksong just wont happen

[loud quiver]

Pong with Tiso

[runic adder]

That feels like twisting their words pretty heavily

[vernal veldt]

I always thought it was, because of the Sealed Siblings ending.

[steep falcon]

That’s lit, anyway

[still owl]

Be here long enough, and you’ll find out why most people who stick around here now are on the squeal side.

[vocal orchid]

We don't think so

[elfin swift]

the seal in sealed siblings likely wouldn't hold permanently, the seal made from the three dreamers degraded over time, so a seal of just one person probably would last even less than that

[still owl]

Bugs of Pharloom can break seals.

[empty tree]

i kinda think so cause if they account for all endings how are they gonna account for sealed siblings

[vocal orchid]

The bugs that captured her can manipulate seals

[rotund aurora]

It’s pretty 50/50 if you ask me.

[loud quiver]

They refer to silksong as a sequel

[empty tree]

i doubt that they sent a butterfly to hallownest

[rotund aurora]

I just think it makes sense for silksong to be a prequel

[nimble steppe]

Yay ending debate

[keen kiln]

the game's been done for years, they're just thinking of ways to tie in the endings and they can't figure it out

[rotund aurora]

Doesn’t mean it will be chronologically

[elfin swift]

honestly, it'll probably be a multiple choice thing, where you choose in game through dialogue what exactly happened prior to hornet arriving. that feels like the most likely route

[still owl]

The bugs with the cage did though. Did hornet just appear in the cage?

[tepid lynx]

they won't say whether it's a prequel or a sequel, they'll let us fight for eternity

[cyan tartan]

Yeah they used Debug Mod to spawn Hornet in the cage

[serene chasm]

Despite all the rage, she's just a bug in a cage

[runic adder]

Leth clarified that this doesn’t mean a chronological sequel at one point

[rotund aurora]

FNAF 2 is a “sequel”

[empty tree]

would that even work on the dreamer seal if they cant get to hornet??

[cyan tartan]

Do not speak of that

[runic adder]

Oh fuck this debate brings back memories

[tepid lynx]

i guess it's either argue about endings or argue about rumored release dates

[rotund aurora]

It’s not terrible to mention the game

[loud quiver]

A prequel would be a much more interesting concept since it would be outside of hallownest, there’s the possibility of finding iselda and cornifer and maybe even the knight and quirrel since its established they came from outside of hallownest it just left

[rotund aurora]

Exactly

[nimble steppe]

Bapanada

[still owl]

I’m a bit confused, but since the door on the Black Egg is a seal, it can be logically broken by one of the bugs that is used to break the seal on hornets cage.

[fleet plaza]

Fnaf 2 is a prequel to hollow knight

[rotund aurora]

Is this #hk-lore now?

[loud quiver]

We could even get insight on cloth too

[empty tree]

the dreamers are the ones that seal the black egg not the door

[cyan tartan]

We do not speak of the travesty that is FNaF 2. I have called the police, they will arrive in a few minutes.

[elfin swift]

you don't even need to break the seal with an outside force; the radiance was breaking out over time even with the threefold seal of the dreamers; hornet's lone seal probably wouldn't last that long

[rotund aurora]

Lmao

[runic adder]

I think that Mr Mushroom will probably return and that’s it tbh

[empty tree]

yeah

[tepid lynx]

does hornet is void?

[empty tree]

100% mr mushroom will appear

[cyan tartan]

Yes please

[rotund aurora]

Lol

[still owl]

Yes, with a seal….

[fleet plaza]

Mr Mushroom is in ss and Fnaf 2

[split blade]

geforce leak real?

[rotund aurora]

Maybe

[still owl]

Doubtfully

[tepid lynx]

don't get your hopes up

[loud quiver]

In my opinion, hornet is made of 100% black stuff

[rotund aurora]

I think it’s decently possible

[elfin swift]

adventurer bretta appearance

[still owl]

It’s most likely a placeholder, just like the last leaked date.

[empty tree]

its probably a placeholder

[split blade]

kk

[loud quiver]

Not void but something black

[tepid lynx]

don't believe a release date unless it comes from team cherry

[split blade]

i did predict 5th anniversary release btw.

[tepid lynx]

unless it's leth, in which case don't believe it then either

[still owl]

If it’s graig 100 percent don’t believe lol

[empty tree]

I am team cherry alt account. Release date is sep 30

[misty shore]

Exoskeleton?

[elfin swift]

it's actually licorice

[loud quiver]

Possibly

[fleet plaza]

ok lets get this straight, silk song comes out on 2021 september 30th, fnaf 2 is a prequel to hollow knight and Roflcopter and Graig both confirmed both these things ok?

[misty shore]

Credible sources

[elfin swift]

sounds about right

[tepid lynx]

we can trust roflcopter his uncle is a nintendo

[fleet plaza]

his sister is hornet

[still owl]

Some top tier jokes tonight I see.

[misty shore]

His mother is herrah?

[empty tree]

yeah

[fleet plaza]

yeah thats how he can do spider math
