[opaque sigil]

No, it implies silkfaraway

[coarse leaf]

everyone ask when silksong but what about how is silksong?

i'm glad that i don't have to deal with that yet

[tribal merlin]

you got to deal with it but you don't have a vote, that's all

[pallid flare]

well yeah

[chilly nexus]

tbh i'd rather one of those than a candian election that changes absolutely nothing but puts us a further 610,000,000 in debt :p

[serene chasm]

lol yup

[tribal merlin]

you'll still have poutine tho, all we got is bratwurst

[chilly nexus]

bratwurst was iconic enough to be the final level of ice cream machine in neopets though

[serene chasm]

Didnt know you were a fellow canadian DrJ

[tribal merlin]

but it's disgusting and tastes like fat and nutmeg

[chilly nexus]

That I am! and right back atcha, eh :p

I can see how those two at once wouldn't be the most pleasant, but on its own, I do love nutmeg

[tribal merlin]

yeah nutmeg is fine

[stable current]

Realese hkss - February ,anonced February,hahahha

[tribal merlin]

but I prefer more coarse sausage where you can verify there's actually meat in it

[pallid flare]

ambiguous sausages are okay imo

[marsh ibex]

it wasn’t announced

[tribal merlin]

also I still have teeth so stop grinding my sausages to a paste

[pallid flare]

well is this meat? we'll let you decide

[marsh ibex]

it was leaked, and said leak has a decent chance to be a placeholder

[opaque sigil]

And it wasn't even leaked from TC, it was leaked from a third party's database

[tribal merlin]

testing database

[chilly nexus]

the leak's date is reasonable enough for it to have been a projected date by TC, but the logical reasons for it not being the official release date are: TC wouldn't know the release date that far in advance, and after the steam date leak and uproar, they'd know better by now to use unrealistic placeholder dates.

[opaque sigil]

the leak's date is reasonable enough for it to have been a projected date by TC,
The same could be said for pretty much any date in 2022-2024 or so

[chilly nexus]

if SS isn't out by the end of 2022 imma start calling it vaporware for a social experiment by the CIA or smthn :p

[opaque sigil]

[chilly nexus]

unless we get news from TC about a scope increase

[tribal merlin]

CIA don't go to Australia cuz of dropbears

[opaque sigil]

I mean we have in the past

[formal karma]

good, then you'll be 90% of this channel 😛

[chilly nexus]

dang nabbit, my aquarius-ness can't accept that. Gotta keep being rational through to 2025 then

[formal karma]

excellent

got... eem?

[placid ibex]

thanks

[sick heart]

yo guys i'm sure you already have opinion about nvidia's db leak. what you think about it? can we discuss it here btw?

[opaque sigil]

We technically can discuss it here, but it probably means nothing

[chilly nexus]

these are my thots^ Chanel #2, Chanel #3, Chanel #4, and I'm Chanel #1

[sick heart]

@opaque sigil discussion is the only thing we have right now 😄

[opaque sigil]

Sure, but discussion of release date is just pointless and uninteresting

[formal karma]

it's utter trash, akin to the june 12th 2020 leak

and that was more than a year ago, so now we're on track to have SS by april 2023

not... really, but hey

[pallid flare]

we've talked about this several times over

someone should write some kind of doc or something

[warm bone]

?leakpsa

[languid linden]

Not it

[languid linden]

Yes please

[opaque sigil]

But there's nothing to say

[serene chasm]

It means nothing, stop bringing it up, seriously

[pallid flare]

a doc about why it doesn't mean anything

[serene chasm]

There. That is the doc for the leak

[pallid flare]

i'll do it after i'm done with my homework

[tribal merlin]

here I'll make the doc right now

[warm bone]

\

[tribal merlin]

"did silksong release date leak? - NO"
done

[sick heart]

@formal karma more than a year ago? :/

[chilly nexus]

did someone say doc? I have a lore doc, link in the name^

[serene chasm]

eww lore

[formal karma]

yea- leaks mean nothing, TC doesn't have a release plan

[opaque sigil]

[chilly nexus]

they really weren't kidding when they said edge wasn't a part of their release plan

here we are almost a year after it

[serene chasm]

do it

[opaque sigil]

Guess not

[tribal merlin]

do it

[marsh ibex]

react to one of my messages curly

do it

[nimble radish]

dewit

[serene chasm]

Nice

[warm bone]

react to one of my messages joker
do it

[serene chasm]

That means you cant see this. Joker isnt the coolest mod

[marsh ibex]

Nah

[marsh ibex]

Rude

[warm bone]

is there a way to block every single person on the server?

[nimble radish]

the coolest mod is uhh

[pallid flare]

leave it

[serene chasm]

!blockall

[warm bone]

no one can emote on my messages if I do it

[nimble radish]

maybe theres a plugin or somesuch you can use

[sick heart]

why people have "lgbtq+ rights" in their nickname? It's fine for me but it's just looks weird

[warm bone]

cause rights

[tribal merlin]

I think it's in response to a "nuke" event

[sick heart]

should i add "straight" in my nickname or something? 😄 to mark myself

[formal karma]

oh is that why? neat

[serene chasm]

Some asshole was being transphobic and people started changing thier names. It stuck after that

[pallid flare]

should I add that just to screw with you

[sick heart]

@serene chasm ok

[warm bone]

you don't need to be them to want them to be treated equal

[tribal merlin]

it doesn't actually help with lgbtq+ rights tho
I could put "free money for everyone" in my nick and it wouldn't change anything

[formal karma]

you know you can be stright and support lgbt, right?

[nimble radish]

and every time someone questions it more people change their names

[warm bone]

its offends people who don't support them, funny

[pallid flare]

it does

[marsh ibex]

Based enough to be unblocked

[tribal merlin]

well in that case you're just trolling, not really supporting equal rights

[pallid flare]

it shows that they want to support a cause they believe in

[warm bone]

I still support them tho

[chilly nexus]

It doesn't do something for rights but it does something for representation. It lets people know that, if they're thinking of being queerphobic, there'll be people to shut it down real quick cuz it doesn't fly with them.

[sick heart]

@formal karma yes, but why should I tell everyone about it?

[pallid flare]

it's like an ad

[nimble radish]

why not

[pallid flare]

it's not something to directly tell you "hey buy this product" but more so it stays in the back of your mind

[formal karma]

why does anyone tell anyone anything

[chilly nexus]

if people being open about their queerness or support of queer rights makes you uncomfortable, that's something to unpack :p

[formal karma]

just... cause

[warm bone]

I imagine it makes lgbtq people feel welcome

[tribal merlin]

I support them irl, I jumped in for a cook that dropped out of a lesbian wedding cuz he's stupid and I didn't charge any money
I don't need some fancy nick to show off

[pallid flare]

cheesoid sorry but you sound kinda sus rn

[chilly nexus]

you don't, but I'm sure there are people out there who take comfort in seeing the few people who do have it in their name

[nimble radish]

it's not like changing the nick is any effort, you just type it once and it sticks

[warm bone]

why does some people care so much
🤔

[marsh ibex]

nice convo you’re having

[nimble radish]

anyway pyro how tf do you have 274 more Os

[marsh ibex]

would be crazy if you just stopped

[pallid flare]

magic words

[tribal merlin]

he's on to us 👀

[serene chasm]

Its just a name on a server. If thats the way people want to show support then more power to them. It doesnt hurt anyone and really makes the place more welcoming

I just wanted to say that. Sorry joker

[pallid flare]

say some of them and the o's increase

[marsh ibex]

Pyroo

[warm bone]

pyr

[serene chasm]

Hey Kids. How bout some tools

[sick heart]

bro i'm just live in a country where gay people getting killed. I just think your eu/us countries so safe and comfortable for lgbt people that you don't have to tell everybody about their rights. Their rights already legal in your countries

[undone fox]

it's not safe nor comfortable anywhere

[cunning geode]

weren't you told to end this conversation

[nimble radish]

I would give a list of eu countries that aren't safe for lgbt people but I can't be bothered

[pallid flare]

guys let's talk about tools okay

[nimble radish]

holy shit tools

hold the phone, hornet has tools now?

[sick heart]

@cunning geode why should i stop? i don't mean anything bad. i'm not trying to harm anyone. it's just a conversation

[pallid flare]

the fuck are tools??

[nimble radish]

this game is going to be the best game ever

[warm bone]

cause they mod and its not about silksong

[pallid flare]

damn what a concept

[cunning geode]

because the topic is too contentious to have here

[serene chasm]

Wonder what she will fix with them

[marsh ibex]

was getting a little

[nimble radish]

fix pharloom

[marsh ibex]

god I can’t believe I’m doing this

[sick heart]

ok then

[nimble radish]

groozy

[cunning geode]

@night hull you can stop too

[pallid flare]

tools amirite

guys...?

[opaque sigil]

[undone fox]

tools indeed

[night hull]

?

[cunning geode]

you can stop instigating is what i meant

[nimble radish]

bro this isn't reddit

[marsh ibex]

the reddit shit

[night hull]

Oh

[pallid flare]

what how is this reddit now

[cunning geode]

u/Wombat

[pallid flare]

I mean, yeah, reddit has tools too

[warm bone]

ribbit 🐸

[pallid flare]

thanks for the upvote curly

[opaque sigil]

Idea: Hornet's tools are the same things as charms (or at least some are,) but she just uses them differently. It does seem like at least some of them may be magical in nature

[nimble radish]

downvoted for emoji usage 😠 😠 :anrgy:

[tribal merlin]

they are best described as "not like charms" tho

[opaque sigil]

Maybe just the blue ones or smth

[cunning geode]

so instead of wearing her charms hornet throws them at people

[warm bone]

👍

[opaque sigil]

Mechanically, sure, but charms are such a broad category

[pallid flare]

should I post the funny picture again

[chilly nexus]

think of hornets red tools akin to sekiro's prosthetic system if you've played it. They work vv similarly, down to the spirit essence being analgous to shell shards

[tribal merlin]

well try to fix a tire on a car with a charm then

[pallid flare]

how'd that send while I was on slowmode?

[opaque sigil]

Not red tools, to be clear

[tribal merlin]

ban pyro for slowmode dodging

[pallid flare]

mods, please ban me, i have exploited the system

[serene chasm]

Pyro is a criminal

[tribal merlin]

now that we actually need one all mods are silent

[warm bone]

pyro is a felon

[pallid flare]

wombat reacted to the message

how come i'm not banned yet

[tribal merlin]

maybe mods forgot how to ban
we're free

[nimble radish]

pyro maybe begging to be banned isn't the most wise course of action

[marsh ibex]

ok

[nimble radish]

see what I mean

[chilly nexus]

keep the secret slowmode technique secret so you can abuse it to troll people the next time chat be wildin

[formal karma]

half the regulars beg to be banned, never happens...

[pallid flare]

well is it?

[serene chasm]

Pro tip on how to beat slowmode.

[cunning geode]

its happened before where someone asked to be banned and we banned them

[serene chasm]

just be a really slow typer like me

[cunning geode]

they were allowed back in sometime after

[nimble radish]

fastmode

[pallid flare]

In my honest opinion

[formal karma]

i stand corrected

[pallid flare]

it would be the funniest thing ever to ban me

[cunning geode]

tempting

[nimble radish]

it would be really funny

and also no one could blame you since pyro clearly wants it

[pallid flare]

A pretty humorous action if you'd ask me

[chilly nexus]

if you must know, I hacked the server through pyro's IP, that's how they were able to evade slowmode. If you need to ban anyone, mods, it should be me

[pallid flare]

yeah ban them, it was all a joke

[cunning geode]

we could organize a banning party once the big game comes out

that way you wont be spoiled

[chilly nexus]

tbh I'd love that

[serene chasm]

I like it.

[pallid flare]

that sounds delightful

[chilly nexus]

a 7 day auto-ban when the game releases

[serene chasm]

You get one post on help a day

[chilly nexus]

cuz if i'm weak enough, i might come crawling back here early and spoil things for myself

[cunning geode]

just make sure you all have a way to get back to us to get back in

[marsh ibex]

True

[chilly nexus]

i've sent a friend request to the ttacco

[opaque sigil]

You could also just leave the server and spare the mods the effort of banning and reversing the ban

[chilly nexus]

that's true too

[neon talon]

yep

[chilly nexus]

but then i gotta use willpower and all that, which is fine, but like

[nimble radish]

wait we can leave?

[marsh ibex]

no

[chilly nexus]

being forced just makes it so peaceful

[nimble radish]

goodbye everyone I'm freeeeeeeeeee

[neon talon]

NO you are never allowed to leave this place

[marsh ibex]

smh

[pallid flare]

but that wouldn't be funny would it

[marsh ibex]

left

Gonna ban

[serene chasm]

When SS comes out, we will all drink our cup of Ban-aid

[neon talon]

if you're leaving you may as well get banned

because why not

[chilly nexus]

Lets start theorycrafting how to speedrun getting banned when the game releases

[neon talon]

yep. from the entire internet

there will be spoilers everywhere

[chilly nexus]

I will not be going on youtube at all cuz I just know there will be thumbnail spoilers for SS

[opaque sigil]

That's only a concern if you don't binge SS

[serene chasm]

Im gonna play SS until Ive seen everything.

[chilly nexus]

same

I like how TC makes games where the story is like dark souls sort of, but you can reasonably achieve the "fullest" ending without a guide. in ds3 i'd've never known about the assassin disguised as a pot for instance. Same with sekiro and all the repeat evesdropping

[tall hinge]

GUYS 0% OF REVIEWS ARE POSITIVE

[chilly nexus]

Like if your goal is to fully experience the game, you can/will. you mighht miss small scenes like hornet mourning herrah, but you can fully beat the game

[opaque sigil]

I mean tbf some of the dnm criteria are a bit easy to miss, but if you're thorough it's still very doable

[serene chasm]

SS garbage game

[marsh ibex]

I knew it

[undone fox]

dang, expectations were too high 😔

[opaque sigil]

Like the game doesn't tell you that the awoken dream nail will be something you need, you just have to gather essence

[chilly nexus]

for me at least, it was pretty intuitive 👍 I just tried to explore everything and nearly locked myself out of the first ending

[formal karma]

seer is just another noc like snail shaman, want the thing? kill that thing...

[warm bone]

bad game

[opaque sigil]

Seer never struck me as, as you so elegantly put it, "pretty sus" but to each his own ig

[spice plume]

Tbh, harass tc route plus annoy mods strat best method

[opaque sigil]

I mean for the most part HK characters turned out ok

[nimble radish]

I'm back y'all, that joke leaving was unusually problematic to resolve

[opaque sigil]

Tiso had a bad time, Zote too, in some cases

[nimble radish]

hope at least one person found it funny

[spice plume]

Hornet in sealed siblings ending

[nimble radish]

a cup a tea and she'll be right as rain

[placid pawn]

what if silksong comes out but I'm dead

That would be so lame

[nimble radish]

are you expecting to die within the next few years

[pallid flare]

it was quite funny, I must say

[placid pawn]

who knows its crazy world we live in

[languid linden]

Bretta: Dies, most likely
Zote: Dies, or talks to the air until the end of time
Tiso: Dies
Cloth: Dies, or goes off into the waste (so probably death)
Hornet: Gets kidnapped apparently
The Knight: dies, gets stuck in the Black Egg probably forever, looses their body, or gets stuck in Godhome
Quirrel: Dies

The one who has it the best off is probably Sly tbh

[opaque sigil]

Cloth and Quirrel turn out ok, they're both fine with dying

[languid linden]

He has a crap ton of money now

[opaque sigil]

Hornet's alive and healthy

[copper knot]

cornifer and iselda r ok

[pallid flare]

I mean, everyone kinda dies

[languid linden]

Cornifer is going to nap for a long time, and Iselda is going to be lonely until he wakes up

[opaque sigil]

Bretta probably has a fair shot, if Zote could make it, and she only leaves in some playthroughs

[copper knot]

im sad that weve never met dashmaster

[languid linden]

Elderbug is either content, or just kinda...depressed?

[opaque sigil]

His life is either improved or unchanged

[languid linden]

His life wasn't that great to begin with

[copper knot]

elderbug more like eldercringe ha gottem

[opaque sigil]

Still

[placid pawn]

who knew every bug in hk is actually depressed

[chilly nexus]

bonus boss time! either way, more story unlocked

[naive flax]

If the release date leak was just a placeholder I feel like TC would have said smthn about it by now.

other than what Leth said

[opaque sigil]

Not necessarily

[tribal merlin]

nvidia made a statement so TC don't have to say anything

[naive flax]

true I guess

[trim estuary]

[languid linden]

I agree, but tbh I think TC probably should have said something

[languid linden]

What did Leth say?

[marsh ibex]

Someone asked if he had something to say about it

he said

“No, not really”

so basically an evading statement

[trim estuary]

And then “=)”

[tribal merlin]

why though? nvidia said the leak was data for testing so what could they possibly add to that?

as long as it has a date format they can test fine so it really could be anything

[languid linden]

Just because of the amount of fans who do not follow nvidia

[tribal merlin]

it was all over games journals

[opaque sigil]

To some extent, it just isn't TC's mess to clean up

[pallid flare]

guys tf is a "earlieststreetdate"

[nimble radish]

street date?

[tribal merlin]

"street date" refers to when you can buy a physical copy in a game store

[pallid flare]

All I can find is a weird wikipedia article without any sources

[tribal merlin]

those things that existed when dinosaurs were around so most of you prolly don't remember

[copper knot]

who even buys physical copies anymore lol

[trim estuary]

That’s because the terminology is top secret

[pallid flare]

is this more in the context of books and physical releases? why does NVIDIA use that?

[languid linden]

Uh okay

[nimble radish]

I think everyone will once they learn the truth

[copper knot]

the hell is the truth

[tribal merlin]

because there still exist physical games media

[pallid flare]

you don't even own the games you buy on online stores

[opaque sigil]

Well, depends on the store

[tribal merlin]

depends on the country you live in

[pallid flare]

but why use it with the cloud gaming system

[copper knot]

not if you buy them drm free

[pallid flare]

you still lose access if that store goes down

[trim estuary]

No?

[copper knot]

pyro is actually true lmao

[trim estuary]

Most games from itch and stuff don’t

[pallid flare]

well you can't download it

[trim estuary]

True

[opaque sigil]

You lose access if the store goes down and you lose your downloaded copy

[pallid flare]

once gog is down i could never play spelunky 1 again

[trim estuary]

So that’s why you upload all of it to google dr-

[copper knot]

drm free bro

[pallid flare]

drm free stuff is great

[knotty rune]

[tall hinge]

guys look, this is from fireb0rn's video and its the only picture i could find of the database with the dates, and the "earliestReleaseDate" is actually null - the one with feb 1st is actually "earliestStreetDate". im not sure what the difference is but everyone was saying that feb 1st was release date (me and pyro were just talking about it)

[pallid flare]

I do not understand what an earlieststreetdate is in the context of cloud gaming

[trim estuary]

You can buy a code in a case

[pallid flare]

isn't the point of it that you don't even have to download it anymore

[opaque sigil]

SS could get a physical release

[pallid flare]

they could but not from geforce now, right?

[tall hinge]

i dont see a world where ss doesnt get a physical release

[opaque sigil]

No, not from nvidia

[tribal merlin]

they have that data because they may not be allowed to stream a game before people can buy the "game card" or whatever you whippersnappers call it novadays

[pallid flare]

what's the differentiation between that and a release date then?

[opaque sigil]

idk why that would be the case, seems like all that nvidia would need to care about would be release date

[trim estuary]

Welcome to the Apopalypse

[tribal merlin]

it's complicated but a release date and physical store access can be different

[pallid flare]

this makes no sense does it

[serene chasm]

why are you guys on this?

[tribal merlin]

well was hollow knight physical edition accessible on hollow knight release date?

[pallid flare]

trying to figure this out

[serene chasm]

Didnt we decide its pointless

[trim estuary]

Life is pointless

So why not discuss this anyway

[pallid flare]

so an "earliestStreetDate" is the earliest point of time that something can be sold after being shipped to stores

[tribal merlin]

yep

[pallid flare]

why does NVIDIA use that if it's a cloud gaming service?????

[tall hinge]

WTF

[tribal merlin]

because like I said there could be instances of them being tied to that date

[trim estuary]

Hm?

[pallid flare]

it is so it's inline with the store's stretdate?

[tall hinge]

i was reacting to what pyro said

[pallid flare]

wouldn't that make it a release date then

[tribal merlin]

"yeah you can stream our game but not before it's in the stores" kinda thing

[serene chasm]

store doesnt have to mean a physical store

[pallid flare]

in this context it was

[tribal merlin]

and I already gave an example of a release date being different from a physical release date

sometimes there's both digital and physical releases

and maybe some publishers would like to sell their game through their own store before allowing nvidia to stream it cuz I think they'd make more money that way

[tall hinge]

yes

[pallid flare]

oooh

I think it clicked? maybe?

[tall hinge]

[tribal merlin]

nah probably just a hiccup

[pallid flare]

i'll just... not think too hard about it

[tribal merlin]

go see a doctor

[copper knot]

tbh idk why tc hasnt really confirmed or denied anything, did leth even say anything other than that one twitter post?

[pallid flare]

because NVIDIA already did that for them

[tribal merlin]

well the easy answer is they don't have to

[copper knot]

i know its just weird

[tribal merlin]

nah it's pretty normal

[tall hinge]

what twitter post

[pallid flare]

can I drop the doc on y'all

[copper knot]

if something like this happens to any other indie companies they would either try to hide it or confirm it

[tribal merlin]

TC can't go around cleaning up the messes of multi-dollar companies

[spice plume]

No, nail master

[copper knot]

i know but it involves them so

[tribal merlin]

so nothing?

iirc the date even got changed to june 30th 2021

should TC come out and say june 30th wasn't the release date?

[copper knot]

bye

[trim estuary]

Bye

[copper knot]

[tall hinge]

[chilly nexus]

did someone summon n'sync?

[languid linden]

Test

What

[chilly nexus]

Hot take, cloth's death was more surprising and saddening in the moment than myla's

[languid linden]

Slither.io is glitching immensly

[opaque sigil]

Cloth got exactly what she wanted

[chilly nexus]

ik but i was still sad to see her go. after reflecting on it, the death is less sad, but in the moment, it made me more sad

[languid linden]

Top ten images taken before disaster

So what's the topic

[pallid flare]

are these people even real

[languid linden]

A lot are bots

[chilly nexus]

For me I gasped when she got stabbed and held my breath from then until a few moments after the scene finished and she still didn't get back up

[opaque sigil]

But did you talk to her ghost after?

[pallid flare]

wdym, myla's death wasn't sad at all

[chilly nexus]

i did ye. her story ark overall was more impactful than myla's for me

[wise axle]

whats the general oppinion on when we will get news?

[opaque sigil]

No way to know

[pallid flare]

we usually get something on december

[wise axle]

i am asking for the general opinion not the truth tammo

i desire hope 🥺

[tribal merlin]

you think you do but you don't

[brave stone]

my guess would be at the Video Game Awards. If the Nvida leek is real we will see the date revealed there

[pallid flare]

If to hope means to live a lie then I don't want to hope

[tribal merlin]

wdym "if the leak is real" the leak is real but the data is testing data...

like in "if it has date format we're good to go"

[brave stone]

well if the date is true then

you know what I mean

[opaque sigil]

Unlikely that they'd determine and announce a date that far out

[tribal merlin]

it could only be true by coincidence, not because it was communicated

same as if you were throwing some dice to determine a date - could be the right one

[brave stone]

@opaque sigil I would agree. but the leak was from G-Force now a streaming service. It would make sense for Nvidia to know of have some idea of what the date would be for streaming rights reasons

[pallid flare]

its also unlikely that they'd ask te cherry themselves

[opaque sigil]

No, it wouldn't make sense for them to know that far out

There's no reason nvidia would need to know that long in advance

[brave stone]

the leak was like last week right?

the vga's are 10 weeks away

[opaque sigil]

VGA and the leak are independent events, one does not affect the other

[tribal merlin]

it is data for testing purposes... not sure how I can put it differently so it sinks in

if there's no known date they'll just generate one

[opaque sigil]

If the data needed any degree of accuracy they couldn't have changed it to June 30 2021

[brave stone]

could be Nivida covering their butts

[opaque sigil]

They could still only change it if the data didn't need to be accurate

[pallid flare]

by changing it they did more harm than good

[glossy gazelle]

Btw, it is confirmed there are placeholders in Nividia. FNAF SB was part of the data leak however SteelWool explicitly stated that was a placeholder they had in there for months

[opaque sigil]

Yeah, none of that data is to be trusted

[tribal merlin]

good thing they only use it for internal testing and not production

[brave stone]

may be a soft place holder. Like 2/1/2022. May not be the real final date it could be a month or so away

[opaque sigil]

Do you know what it means to be a placeholder date?

[tribal merlin]

it's not even labeled as "the release date" in the database

[opaque sigil]

A placeholder date isn't an estimate

[tribal merlin]

it's labeled "earliest"

so it would still be true if the game released in 2024

[pallid flare]

soft placeholder?

[opaque sigil]

A placeholder date is an arbitrary date that you use because you don't have (or don't want to share) the real date, it has no necessary or implied relation to the actual date

[pallid flare]

why even use one at all then?

[tribal merlin]

soft and fluffy with the smell of a freshly cut lime

[tribal merlin]

to test your algorithms and methods on data that matches the use case

[opaque sigil]

And some databases require entries for dates

[pallid flare]

i meant the "soft placeholder"*

[opaque sigil]

Yeah that's just grasping at straws

[chilly nexus]

TGA will likely have SS news if SS is coming out before summer 2022

[brave stone]

to set a looser time window with out setting things in stone or posting 2 dates

[chilly nexus]

so if you're hoping for a release May 2022 or earlier, hope for SS at TGA!

[brave stone]

that's why you would use a soft date

[opaque sigil]

I wouldn't say it's likely, per se, but it's possible

[opaque sigil]

No reason to give nvidia a wild guess, better to just keep that stuff internal. And no date was ever posted, it was leaked

In fact this whole situation is an example of why it wouldn't make sense for TC to give nvidia anything significant

[brave stone]

it is not a wild guess it is more like a estimation

[opaque sigil]

Whatever you want to call it

If it isn't a concrete date, it isn't a concrete date

[brave stone]

is it impossible to imagine that TC has talked to Nvida about Silksong being on G-Force Now. and maybe they said we think we will be ready near 2/1/2022

[opaque sigil]

Not impossible, just not likely

[brave stone]

IDK how streaming games works

if it is anything like Netflix

[opaque sigil]

It isn't even a release date in the database anyways

[brave stone]

then that stuff has to be hashed out months ahead of time

[opaque sigil]

It probably isn't anything like netflix, because you know they're entirely different industries

[brave stone]

Well still makes sense because TC could have said as early as

[opaque sigil]

In which case the date means fuck-all

[brave stone]

could be a month or so off

[opaque sigil]

Or it could be more

Or it could be less, since the date is now June 30 2021

[brave stone]

but that's already happened 😛

[opaque sigil]

Yup, we're inside the window

[pallid flare]

exactly

[opaque sigil]

The window which lasts from June 30 'til the end of time

[pallid flare]

its probably not going to release on june 30th 2021 you know

[brave stone]

I know I feel that Silksong could be at the VGA's

[opaque sigil]

It could be. A lot of things could happen

[tribal merlin]

also nice choice for a game to cloud stream
can you imagine playing HK with 160ms input latency?

[opaque sigil]

It also kinda defeats the whole purpose, which is to play demanding games

[pallid flare]

this all doesnt make any sense

the more you think the worse it gets

[opaque sigil]

It isn't supposed to, it's a date used for internal testing

[brave stone]

what does internal testing mean for this? just making sure the database works

[tribal merlin]

yeah, it serves its purpose as long as it's a date
if it's correct or not has no bearing on testing

[pallid flare]

yes

you usually want to test things like these

[tribal merlin]

making sure all the methods they use on the database work as intended

the database itself will work because otherwise the company making the database software would be out of business

[brave stone]

but why didn't leth just say it was a place holder. He was here not too long ago saying how Silksong was not going to be in the Escapist indie presentation thing. Why more or less say no comment on this date?

[formal karma]

Because he doesn't need to say it

[opaque sigil]

His reasons are ultimately unimportant

[tribal merlin]

nvidia already said it's data for internal testing, TC don't have to add anything to that

[formal karma]

Because we are a year and 3 months passed the LAST placeholder date

It. Means. Nothing

Nvidia knows even less than nintendo

[brave stone]

well at least we know the story behind the old place holder

[formal karma]

Nintendo, who said development was wrapping up. 2 years ago....

[brave stone]

Actually no they did not.

I thought they did but watch the video again

I can't find they lady saying those words in that order

[keen karma]

Leth is an omnipotent being, he works in mysterious ways

[opaque sigil]

Ozlin's paraphrasing

[brave stone]

but he should or could have said "I defer to Nivda" but he did not

[tribal merlin]

the nvidia statement already says it all

[opaque sigil]

What you think Leth should have done has no bearing on the facts of the situation

[mental imp]

maybe leak was planned by leth with fireborn

[serene chasm]

bUt WhAt iF tHeYrE lYiNg!

[opaque sigil]

No

[proud vale]

Morning SilkPals ™️

[brave stone]

So how do video game streaming services work? I would assume you pay a monthly fee to be able to play games you don't own

[serene chasm]

Good Moring Orange

[gilded adder]

Hello Orange

[tribal merlin]

if they're liars then you should trust the date even less

[proud vale]

Gday Frenz, we talking about leak?

[opaque sigil]

[formal karma]

Unfortunately

[shell yacht]

why doesnt Leth come into chat to deconfirm every release theory? because the man has a job and its not to sit in here and say no all day

[proud vale]

Leth could operate under 'any publicity is good publicity' and deconfirming would drop that

[formal karma]

As he has famously done so in the past

[shell yacht]

randomly

[opaque sigil]

Leth is an enigma

[serene chasm]

Lethigma

[proud vale]

Why I get ElderC'd Water

[trim estuary]

Yeah, you don’t leak 18,000 games for one marketing promo

[mental imp]

yeah it sounds stupid to me too now

[tribal merlin]

I mean we have this so Leth doesn't have to do anything any more
https://images-ext-2.discordapp.net/external/FTBpaA4Zz0g_VbWLr9WBxxt2-KGeGkE_8YbkDFHtzSY/https/media.discordapp.net/attachments/586931790208434203/851552332570296401/THEREISNONEWS.gif

[opaque sigil]

ngl as much as I like the guy, a part of me is kinda curious as to what it would look like if Leth finally snapped

[serene chasm]

blood. so much blood

[proud vale]

Well I think we'll just have to wait until Feb like we had to wait until June

[pallid flare]

leth would ban us all

[formal karma]

And then we will still be waiting after Feb...

[tribal merlin]

Leth is a US resident so we can assume he has all the illegal gun parts required to moderate this channel

[opaque sigil]

That's the terrifying thing... They'd probably be legal

[shell yacht]

just remove feb from your mind
You are waiting.

[proud vale]

I have a pasta for you guys gimmie a sec

[formal karma]

Waiting is fine by me

[shell yacht]

illegal gun parts?

[trim estuary]

These illegal gun parts?

[proud vale]

Imagine this, Silksong would be releasing Feb 2022. You have no way of knowing that, so you spend the coming months in the same wondering state with no news.
Would you rather, wait for Feb in no knowledge of release OR wait in knowledge of release, but it's a month later?

[pallid flare]

thought of terraria too

[willow sinew]

Leth wit da minishark

He do be fightin' skeletron 😳

[vague heath]

wait for Feb in no knowledge of release

[proud vale]

That's an alpha move, I would just want to know even if it's delayed

[formal karma]

I would want to know even if ots deep 2022

[proud vale]

Yep it's better to know your fate

[vague heath]

fair

[formal karma]

The not knowing.... that it could be a couple weeks or nine months.... rough stuff

[umbral blaze]

SILKSONG!!!!

[proud vale]

Yeah I think it'll start to grate on people even more as we go longer without news

[vague heath]

yeah, personally it doesn't bother me too much though

[serene chasm]

SS is both releasing and not releasing the February

[formal karma]

We aren't getting news because they're shadow dropping/j

[vague heath]

Schrodinger's silksong

[proud vale]

Schrodingers silksong yeah

Maybe the nvidia info will release but not the game

[umbral blaze]

Silksong is only a myth

[vague heath]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/586931790208434203/891337155950030908/unknown.png

[proud vale]

I mean, in Leth's position it's a good thing to have publicity in a news drought

[vague heath]

ye

[serene chasm]

Thats not 3022. Its just 022.

[vague heath]

yup

silksong came out year 22, we missed it

[serene chasm]

Actually its 22 years into the upcoming era

[proud vale]

Perhaps the loftiest plan in all of history

[brave stone]

sadly the date is really an As soon as which is not super helpful

and the dates are for internal testing purposes only

So this is just another coin "weird series of coincidences that lead to a false release date" jar

[vague heath]

yeah, but only time will tell

[proud vale]

ughggghh it'll all be worth it lads, I hope

[brave stone]

I mean I still think Silksong has a good chance of being at the VGA's

[serene chasm]

It will be. Im sure of it

[proud vale]

I mean yeah I think it'll definitely be the best metroidvania (lol rip Ori 2)

[serene chasm]

Unless they plan on shadow dropping it, I dont see it being at the VGAs

[tribal merlin]

"and the award for most months without news goes tooooo"

[brave stone]

I was thinking date shown at VGA's with the launch being some time around 2/1/2022

[vagrant umbra]

When has there been a significant announcement during the VGA’s? All I can think of is smash dlc.

[tribal merlin]

I think the chances of announcement and actual release being apart more than 2-3 weeks get lower the longer the time period

[brave stone]

Well leth has said if he were to launch an indie game he would do at the VGA's

and Leth likes Geoff and wants to work more with him

[vague heath]

what is the VGA's

[brave stone]

Video Game Awards

[vague heath]

oh, ight

[cerulean sable]

dreamt about silksong

it was in early access release

[proud vale]

wuhhh, source?

[brave stone]

in the dicord logs

[proud vale]

Lets go TACO, welcome to the dream about silksong club

[brave stone]

his old messages

some one will find them

[serene chasm]

I still havent had a SS dream

[cerulean sable]

comments range from "this is great" to "its ok so far, definitely a 9/10"
peeps complaining about how they wish there was more, but understands because its in early access

everyone was fawning over a tool that was (forgot the name) Trxxxxx? was it Troyves, or Trevers

or something like that

[opaque sigil]

I mean if you're presenting something as evidence it's generally considered good form to present it yourself rather than insist others go find it

[proud vale]

I just realised Leth's discord tag is Leth#0001, that's alpha

[cerulean sable]

basically gives you an orange magnetic shield or some shit which absorbs damage and allows you to temporarily increase your melee damage

[serene chasm]

#sk-discussion message

[brave stone]

ya that one

[opaque sigil]

Yeah that's pretty far removed from what you said

[serene chasm]

I dont think he is serious. Though I know he wouldnt be against it

[opaque sigil]

It's not that he isn't serious, it's just a specific hypothetical

[brave stone]

but Leth does like Jeff and would want to work more with him

[tribal merlin]

he could do so with any of the other games he's working with/on

[proud vale]

Thanks for grabbing that Curly, does seem kind of hypothetical but at least we know it's on the radar

[brave stone]

#sk-discussion message like that is fairly clear

[proud vale]

Right so he would want to do announcements with Geoff?

[brave stone]

yes possibly for Silksong one would hope???

[serene chasm]

I mean. Imagine if they pulld that off. Would definitely give a big boost to sales.

You know what. Im on team VGA shadowdrop

[opaque sigil]

Eh, it's an option, but you can't really say any more for it than that

[vague heath]

I feel like at most, an announcement in VGA

[proud vale]

When are those then

[vague heath]

pretty sure december

[brave stone]

See I am not crazy quoting Leth and thinking what he has said may be his plans for Silksong

December 10th

[fleet temple]

welcome to the team

[proud vale]

I didn't even know this path for hype existed

[fleet temple]

well, I mean, I'm don't think shade drop but

[serene chasm]

Thank you. It feels nice to be part of something

[opaque sigil]

He's also said he doesn't like the idea of indies releasing towards the end of the year

#sk-discussion message

[vague heath]

That's why im guessing an announcment at most, but who knows

[fleet temple]

I could see VGA announcing ss for next year

[proud vale]

Yo imagine if silksong dropped last year and beat Hades

[opaque sigil]

Would've been bittersweet

[serene chasm]

I dont see them doing it any other way. You could do a "coming in 2 weeks" thing, but then people will forget about it, and it will be lost in the storm of holiday releases. Gotta go big

[opaque sigil]

Although frankly if SS had released last year I might not have played Hades at all, so I'm happy to count my blessings

[proud vale]

I mean it's either shadow drop or release in two months from announcement

[serene chasm]

Supergiant asked TC to delay SS so they could win GOTY

[fleet temple]

I guess but either way, we are both on team VGA hype

[serene chasm]

They made a deal and Logan Cunningham will be in SS

[proud vale]

Well I guess December is the next big bet

[vague heath]

yup

[chilly nexus]

ye december hype train let's get people wild

[brave stone]

If it not at the VGA's it will be a new record longest time without news

[fleet temple]

A shadow drop would make a good christmas present to be fair

[proud vale]

BRUHHH that would be extremely hype

[chilly nexus]

All the unopened gifts by children hiding in their basement playinig SS :p

[opaque sigil]

Already is, but that doesn't really matter

[fleet temple]

It's best not to think this will DEFINETLEY happen, though. It's best to just get a litte excited and not overhype things

[serene chasm]

Think of all the kids who have no idea what SS is watching the VGAs and going "FUCK CoD! Mom! I want the bug game!"

[haughty brook]

How many people are playstesting SS?

[fleet temple]

plus the lack of the usual 6 months news might imply that TC doesn't need to because it's close to release

[proud vale]

bug game bug game

[chilly nexus]

I just want to watch things burn a little so am trying to spread the hype fever for december

[opaque sigil]

I think it's like 30-something but idk where I got that number so take it with a bucketload of salt

[fleet temple]

actually that sounds fun OVERHYPE TIME!

[haughty brook]

A shotgun of salt?

[serene chasm]

We know Benji, Simo, and Graig are testers, but Im sure there are a few more. Leth also tests, and I know they got help testing from friends and family as well for HK

[fleet temple]

TC tests
our patience

[proud vale]

I'm sure they have heaps of testers

[brave stone]

I am not sure Leth tests anymore he has stuff to do with Crowsworn

[fleet temple]

I think he did say he hasn't played ss since the E3 demo

[vague heath]

he did

[brave stone]

I am not sure he played that either

[fleet temple]

Who, knows, everyone on this server could be a tester

[proud vale]

except you Reg

[fleet temple]

how do you know?

[serene chasm]

Crowsworn is in early development. He's probably just letting the devs work on the game before he comes in to do his stuff.

[proud vale]

You gotten to Sherma Prime third phase yet?

[serene chasm]

SHERMA HAS A THRID PHASE!?

[opaque sigil]

Yeah, but dread lord grindle's much harder

[fleet temple]

I got stuck, I'm trying out a new tool build

[haughty brook]

I liked the Flea boss fight but that one attack in its final phase its just bullshit.

[proud vale]

Yeah dude when he rings that little hand bell it covers the whole screen with hitboxes, gotta time your I-frames literally frame-perfect to not take 3 masks

[chilly nexus]

I got to the first phase of Lace 4 + garmond and undead zaza but haven't found part 2 of the fight yet (last I saw, garmond was dead for good, and lace rode zaza by its silken reigns off to another room)

[serene chasm]

[proud vale]

You can find garmonds body in the huntress room after that fight as a little easter egg

[chilly nexus]

ye I saw. by choosing the right dialog options I was able to have the huntress return his eaten out carcass to me as a material for a new tool

[fleet temple]

Have you beaten the silk lurker yet? He is optional but the reward helps with that phase

[proud vale]

wtf that's sick, didn't know there was a way to escape the dialogue loop

[proud vale]

where do you find him?

[serene chasm]

inb4 banned for rp

[proud vale]

hahaha shit

[opaque sigil]

It isn't really rp tho

[proud vale]

let us dream

[fleet temple]

You have to break a wall behind the silk loomer's hut in the ocean valley

[chilly nexus]

I found him by repeatedly doing the diagonal down strike in the room where you fight lace 2 (with all the white flowers on the floor). Ala SMB3's bowser fight, every downstrike removes a flower, so after enough strikes, you can make a hole to the room below

[proud vale]

shit there are two ways there? I'll be damned

[chilly nexus]

just be careful not to fall back into moss grotto** it triggers a change in the game map that removes the fast travel system (temporarily), so you won't be able to make it back to the fight for a while

think the ashina castle changes after beating divine dragon in sekiro

[proud vale]

Yeah doesn't it also res every boss?

[chilly nexus]

not all but most ye

[proud vale]

even elder pukebug?

[opaque sigil]

Elder pukebug gets buffed big time

[chilly nexus]

If you've progressed the needolin upgrades far enough you can play music to appease most of the resurrected bosses vs re-fighting them. Minimizing the fighting is necessary for the best ending so I'd highly recommend unlocking that capability

[opaque sigil]

Does 4-mask damage now

[chilly nexus]

||resurrected and recommend are two words that I always mix up the double-consonants of||

[proud vale]

Right okay, I'm going for dark path playthrough so I offered my needolin to Herrah statue for primal rage mode

[chilly nexus]

nice nice ok

I heard the optional bosses you encounter at the end of that route are some of the toughest, so good luck!

[proud vale]

yeah I wanna tear my eyes out already. Like I said, sherma prime phase three is still kicking my ass

[opaque sigil]

Yeah, blood god dave's a piece o' work also

[fleet temple]

I got stuck for like 3 hours on the garmond and zaza escort mission

[chilly nexus]

are you watching your madness meter? since you don't have your needolin anymore, you'll need to calm hornet's nerves via some other means to make it through the attack you were talking about earlier^ otherwise it deals increased damage to the point of a one-shot

[proud vale]

WHAT

[chilly nexus]

Yeah! the needolin is part of the gameplay mechanic and song curse :p

[proud vale]

That actually makes so much sense, I've heard if you juggle shakra's shakrom 10 times before the fight it gives a 30% reduction in madness accumulation

[chilly nexus]

omg i didn't think of sharkra's bangle juggling but now that you mention it, she can be found close to that fight

[serene chasm]

Man. SS sounds complicated

[proud vale]

I didn't think Hornet would be this emotionally fragile

[chilly nexus]

ikr, like she's part weaver already, why can't she just not be affected by the perverted song omnipresent in pharloom

[serene chasm]

I mean she watched everyone she knew die or become infected. That would fuck anyone up

[proud vale]

Yeah bro I did not think those lyrics would be safe for all audiences, but hey, TC's call

[chilly nexus]

the fact that SS has an ESRB age rating higher than its price is crazy

[proud vale]

It's so you can save one dollar each year since birth to play it

like a right of passage

the path you take in the game determines what life you will lead

[chilly nexus]

i love the poeticism of that

TC really thought of the player's out-of-game (OOG) experience

[serene chasm]

Every child must play SS when they become an adult. All is SS now. Praise SS for it will lead us to salvation

[proud vale]

Hell yeah, it's a coming of age experience

[fleet temple]

I wonder why the mods don't like roleplay

[proud vale]

SS divides the nation, and leads us to our forged path

[opaque sigil]

Because it's a server rule

[chilly nexus]

This isn't roleplay though, we're ourselves, talking about SS hypotheticals 👍

it's the same thing as going "imagine if the grimm troupe is in SS. omg they're so cool"

[serene chasm]

Because they are big meanie heads. Thats why. Also RP tends to become weird

[proud vale]

(Tammo probably got stuck on the church keeper needolin rhythm based tutorial)

[opaque sigil]

I didn't expect it to be so reliant on motion controls ok?

[rapid topaz]

i want grime in ss

[cerulean sable]

theres a diff between that
and the afformentioned
ehem

"KNIGHT, YOU MUST DELIVER THE THE FIRE TO MY CHILD"
"BUT I MUST FORGO MY DUTY TO SEAL THE BLINDING LIGHT FATHER"

some kids do here

[opaque sigil]

I'm sure SS will have plenty of grime

[serene chasm]

I pulled out my Guitar hero controller for the needolin sections

[fleet temple]

oh no mods are here

[rapid topaz]

I hope so!

[cerulean sable]

not only is it cringe, sometimes they usually devolve into nsfw shite

[proud vale]

Yo it takes guitar hero inputs? I just used my japenese taiko drum kit motion controller plus

[chilly nexus]

I also used my old guitar hero controller 👍

the red button sometimes doesn't take input though which was frusterating

[serene chasm]

It lets you use almost everything. Seriously TC thought of everything

[fleet temple]

I was using the wii balance board with ring fit controllers

[chilly nexus]

true! the fitness mode I still need to try

[torn star]

freak posting hours

[proud vale]

Could I use my controller from those old ps3 BUZZ games? with the 4 colors?

[rapid topaz]

Ah, I see you've chosen the easy way

[visual chasm]

recently saw a thing about geforce leaks so i thought id check if this channel is a mess AKDJJFD

[serene chasm]

I wish TC released an official Needolin controller for SS

[visual chasm]

surprisingly not hello

[fleet temple]

you guys beat p9 all 7 bindings yet?

[rapid topaz]

Hello, welcome to ss-waiting-room

[proud vale]

A silksong pro controller with cool decals would actually be an insta buy for me

[opaque sigil]

fr

[serene chasm]

Id be tempted

[visual chasm]

i havent been keeping up with silksong and hk stuff the past while, hows everything been folks

[chilly nexus]

na the copy i have to test doesn't include the bossrush mode. I was told to focus just on silksoul and the pacifist playable sherma mode

[serene chasm]

Limited time SS Switch

[proud vale]

Nah dude, just have the madness meter binding left. Once you reach 10% all the bosses turn into the knight and get 10x harder

[proud vale]

dont

[fleet temple]

I'm testing the lace dlc

[proud vale]

My wallet can't take it

[rapid topaz]

Doing great. And you?
About the GeForce thing it has been discussed many times already

It doesn't seems to be that interesting, probably just a placeholder

(very probably in my opinion)

[proud vale]

yeah placeholder is extremely likely, I just wish they would COMMENT on it

[opaque sigil]

[serene chasm]

What would you guys want to see in a SS collectors edition?

[proud vale]

yeah for sure

[rapid topaz]

Yes

[proud vale]

Oh what would I want to see

[opaque sigil]

idk, maybe a map of Pharloom, like HK had for Hallownest, and an artbook of some sort

[proud vale]

Cool map, maybe even I giant scratch map you can scratch off as you go

[serene chasm]

Oh. I love that idea.

A scratch map would be really cool

[rapid topaz]

maybe a high-quality little statue of hornet or something like that. Depends of the price of the collectors

[fleet temple]

A cool poster would be fine as well

[rapid topaz]

Also, yeah a map would be cool

[proud vale]

What would you want Curly

[serene chasm]

For some reason I would love some old retro travel posters for different towns

[proud vale]

Maybe some post cards from the towns?

[fleet temple]

oooh maybe like a travel guide for each of the different towns

[serene chasm]

That would be cool too

A Pilgrim's Guide to Pharloom

[old flare]

That would be so cool

[rapid topaz]

Fleas plushy

[proud vale]

Reminiscent of this

[fleet temple]

That's a really good idea

[fleet temple]

yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes

[serene chasm]

where can I get this?

[proud vale]

i'll DM you

[rapid topaz]

I'm sure Fangamer will do the job anyways lol

[proud vale]

Yeah fangamer will certainly come through and drain my wallet

[rapid topaz]

They've done plenty of plushies of HK already

I mean, sold

Not made

[old flare]

Sherma plushie

[rapid topaz]

Also, why not having the hornet's needle as an actual needle ?

That's a bit weird but cool

[old flare]

Ooh hornet themed sewing kit, with her needle and the case with a picture of hornet and weavers

[serene chasm]

SS sewing kit

[old flare]

Great minds think alike

[rapid topaz]

exactly

[serene chasm]

what that thing where you make pictures with sewing?

[old flare]

Embroidery?

[proud vale]

I wanna learn more about the cocoon thing in the lore of the game

[trim estuary]

That would repeatedly stab the plushie

[rapid topaz]

what does stab means?

oh okay, found it, nevermind

I'm learning english I forgot this word

[fleet temple]

I want to learn more about silksong

[proud vale]

Yes

[fleet temple]

I want to play silksong

[weak sable]

me too

[lament sapphire]

Do you guys think there will be information about Esmy?

[fleet temple]

I want to silksong

[lament sapphire]

In SS

[tranquil igloo]

i swear some of you being impatient about silksong would risk your life for ss

[lament sapphire]

I wouldn't

[fleet temple]

no, I'd risk someone elses

[lament sapphire]

The game is fun and it's exciting but I wouldn't go that far

[tranquil igloo]

breaking your neck just for tc to release ss

[fleet temple]

Just clone yourself and let the clone do it

[tranquil igloo]

dude your release date for silksong is when the original game released

[fleet temple]

calm down man

[lament sapphire]

I thought the leak was ss in Feb 1st

[tranquil igloo]

sorry if that sounded EGGresive lol

Alright i will leave.

[fleet temple]

It's likely just a placeholder date

[lament sapphire]

Ok

Makes more sense now

[drowsy pike]

I don't think there is really much into it.

Hornet's soul is integrated with silk. When you die, you leave your SOUL behind which is mainly how the knight obtained soul.

Hornet dying however also leaves a cocoon behind, because, well, silk is literally a part of Hornet's soul.

Generally soul would just fade away, but silk is solid, it will stay where hornet died just like how a skeleton/corpse would stay where someone died.

If anything it's minuscule in comparison to the shade lore wise

[proud vale]

Yeah I was just wondering if there was equivalent lore

[cerulean sable]

just level mdef 4 head

[proud vale]

magic defense?

[drowsy pike]

Ah
Well I guess I can't really say I'm looking forward to it but who knows

As of right now tbh I personally just see it as a personalized silk spool (imagining that Hornet's silk is the same as a weaver's).

It's important because it's silk infused with soul, but also not really because it's just one cocoon out of countless amounts of weaver silk spools in Pharloom

Then again, who knows

Well see

[toxic turtle]

Hmu 👀

[serene patrol]

Thats what i said! Everyday!

No news today ! But tomorrow for sure

[drowsy pike]

Is this directed to anyone in particular?

[drowsy pike]

So far, I've had a record of accuracy of:

2 times
