[sharp peak]

yeah you will

[charred pulsar]

What would this server be without Graig and his honesty

[coarse leaf]

Graig showing up in the ss discussion Silksong confirmed omg 100% real no fake

[haughty ingot]

god damn i wanna play ss

simo you wanna break nda for us?

[young saffron]

ayo g-graig 😳 👉 👈 🥺

[hushed wasp]

Graig my beloved

[young saffron]

do we have any idea on how big silksong would be (playtime wise :O)

[hushed wasp]

Probably like hk

[haughty ingot]

more than HK

[young saffron]

it took me 40-50 hours to finish hk the first time aand I only paid 7 bucks bruh.

[coarse leaf]

I paid 14 for the digital version but then I fell in love and I paid 30 for the physical

you got my coins TC

Us // SS

[young saffron]

weird in my country hk is 7 dollars i nsteam without no sales or anything

[coarse leaf]

I'm from Spain its 14 digital 30 physical here

[opaque sigil]

Well ig the digital price should be consistent but physical may be more expensive by a varying degree depending on region

[tribal merlin]

I'd argue the digital price is the one that can be easily changed based on regions, the physical is the one with a fixed production cost on top where there's little wiggle room, so it's about the same whether you buy it in the US or in eastern Europe

also we know steam has different pricing based on regions

[opaque sigil]

From how TC talked about their pricing, it sounded like $15 (or the equivalent) was assumed to be the universal pricing

Although I will likely not be able to find that ama so, uh, yeah...

[random fox]

NOOOO

[coarse leaf]

😔

[pallid flare]

hello silksongers

[valid sable]

Sherma did it

[worldly dune]

Yeah blame sherma

[olive bobcat]

YES

[pallid flare]

we all know it's sherma's fault

[ocean mulch]

Omg how will Graig troll when SS is out

That realization just hit me

[opaque sigil]

Fearless Fox

[pallid flare]

by pretending that dlcs are coming idk

[olive bobcat]

You'll buy SS and Graig will take your bank details

[pallid flare]

i'm fine with that, I trust graig with my life, family and bank credentials

[proud vale]

What the heck happened while I was gone, Graig did an uwu

[proud vale]

fuq

the rivers are connected

[pallid flare]

wtf

[proud vale]

that do be kinda fricked up

[olive bobcat]

Nailsmith does a sick dive from his hut and swims to Pharloom

[proud vale]

mmm

'swims'

[solemn hill]

as long as he wasnt shadesouled

[proud vale]

Nailsmith succumbed to Feb 1st copium

[silver oak]

It’s a deadly disease

[fiery coral]

[proud vale]

Nailsmith has ossified

That's right Unique I see your words of the day

[fiery coral]

[silver oak]

If only Tess was here to be cleverer with wordplay then us

[coarse leaf]

Graig's still online 👀

[fiery coral]

he usually is

[pallid flare]

yes silksong will release in a few hours

[coarse leaf]

😂 oh I thought it was like extraordinary that someone from TC was online

[fiery coral]

now if Ari/Wilbo were online, then...

[silver oak]

He shows up a few times a week to say some bullshit

[proud vale]

[silver oak]

And the other times he’s just playing league

[pallid flare]

good times

[proud vale]

They were great times

[coarse leaf]

feb 2019

[fiery coral]

it was the best of times
it was the worst of times

[proud vale]

I think fondly upon them in dark times

[pallid flare]

remember how hopeful we were?

[silver oak]

I would say you can’t fool me but ngl i did check

[proud vale]

Leth hopped on too at the time but I missed the screenshot

[pallid flare]

Leth never goes out of invis, it was something truly special

[coarse leaf]

I didn't know Graig was TC's gametester and I was like OMG like it was a big deal for him to be online 😂 clown

[fiery coral]

seriously though something must have happened at that time

[coarse leaf]

when was that?

[fiery coral]

a while ago

[proud vale]

Bro for sure, still to this day I want to know what it was

[fiery coral]

I do not remember the date

[silver oak]

EDGE part 2

[proud vale]

just look up Ari in chat and you'll probably find it

[opaque sigil]

Or maybe he just accidentally turned off invisible for a few minutes

[fiery coral]

maybe

[pallid flare]

do they even use discord at all?

[silver oak]

It doesn’t show when people are online tho

[fiery coral]

wasn't just for a few minutes, right? it was a significant while

[pallid flare]

it was

[fiery coral]

that does not happen on accident

[opaque sigil]

[signal crag]

for a few hours i believe?

i don't remember well tbh

[proud vale]

It was the 29th of August for me

[coarse leaf]

so 2 months ago

[silver oak]

Ari was gaming with the boys???????

[proud vale]

#sk-discussion message

[signal crag]

oh, cool

[proud vale]

Yo Ari, where we droppin'?

[pallid flare]

tilted towers

[proud vale]

Mossy Grottos

[silver oak]

Loot lake

Bluot lake?

[opaque sigil]

[coarse leaf]

Mossy Grotto, and the second area is Bonebottom, the one with lava

[opaque sigil]

Bonebottom is the town

[silver oak]

Bone forest

[coarse leaf]

oh ok

[proud vale]

Bone Saw is ready

[silver oak]

Is the area

[opaque sigil]

We don't know that that's the actual name, though

It's modeled after the "Forest of Bones" that was going to be in HK but they could have changed the name

[signal crag]

just that it's clearly based on that cut area from Hollow Knight

[coarse leaf]

forest Sounds odd it being a lava area

[opaque sigil]

Probably the more abstract definition

Following that calling the area a forest of bones makes very much sense

[coarse leaf]

I like sea of bones better since lava etc

[opaque sigil]

But the sea is lava, not bones

It's a forest of bones atop a sea of lava

[silver oak]

EDGE called it the “boneforest area” but it wasn’t capitalized so I think it’s still ambiguous

If I wasn’t on mobile I would pull up the quote

[opaque sigil]

I mean was that just Jen's description? I'll look for it

The surroundings are immediately more varied, however, starting you off in the emerald Moss Grotto before funnelling you through the lava-moated ‘boneforest’ area
Sounds like it's just her term

[silver oak]

She probably purposefully uncapitalized it to keep it unconfirmed

Or just to mess with people who look into shit like this too much

[opaque sigil]

There's also the ' ' which is distinct from how other area names are presented

Either way it's not the official term, or at least cannot be assumed to be from the article

[silver oak]

We only really know the official name of 3 areas

[opaque sigil]

Moss Grotto, Deep Docks, Bonebottom

[silver oak]

Greymoor

[opaque sigil]

Right

So 4 areas if you count Bonebottom

[silver oak]

I didn’t count bonebottom as an area but you can if you want

Then again, Dirtmouth was an area

[opaque sigil]

And the Marrow

But that may or may not be a full area in addition to its functionality as the mechanism of fast travel

[silver oak]

The marrow still confuses the fuck out of me

[opaque sigil]

There are at least a few rooms there, though

[proud vale]

Nah the marrow is like the subway

a network of tunnels under the citadel

[opaque sigil]

Bell Beast arena and the bell pogo room both seem to be in the Marrow itself

But yes, it is also a network of tunnels throughout the kingdom through which Hornet rides the bell beast

[coarse leaf]

I'm honestly concerned how they will translate into Spanish 😂

[opaque sigil]

it's french you should worry about

[coarse leaf]

French is always bad no worries

[silver oak]

I’m sure this is not the first video game to have been translated into another language

[proud vale]

you sure tho

[opaque sigil]

whoosh

[coarse leaf]

I mean the quality of the translation 😔

[opaque sigil]

Nobody ever complained about the HK spanish translation afaik, it's probably fine

[cerulean sable]

Maestro delle Anime

[fiery coral]

[opaque sigil]

Is that a problematic translation

[cerulean sable]

no but in english it implies that SM is a fucking weeb

[fiery coral]

[pallid flare]

pitta I know you're here

[proud vale]

Only one person uses the orangepet....

[opaque sigil]

That was 10 minutes ago they could have left

[pallid flare]

just you wait

[trim estuary]

i am waiting

[pallid flare]

I will never lose hope in pitta

[opaque sigil]

Oh Pyro... So innocent, so naive. People will disappoint you.

[pallid flare]

never... lose... hope

[trim estuary]

Here I’ll ghost ping pitta

[proud vale]

ghost ping? you shall not dare

[pallid flare]

yeah don't you dare ghost ping pitta

[trim estuary]

@tall hinge

[proud vale]

Mods

[trim estuary]

Uh oh

[pallid flare]

mods ban please

[proud vale]

dispatch with this heathen

[cunning geode]

ok

[trim estuary]

[proud vale]

My thanks, Wombus

[pallid flare]

wait are they gone

[opaque sigil]

Yes

[wanton eagle]

wait I just knowed about this

So SS was supposed to be dlc for HK but TC turned it to new game and it was supposed to be released in 2019 and it still doesn't out yet?!!!!!!!

[opaque sigil]

It was never "supposed to be released"

[tall hinge]

[wanton eagle]

and y'all guys are still waiting for it?!

[proud vale]

[tall hinge]

whomst has summoned me

[wanton eagle]

insane

[worldly dune]

Me

[cunning geode]

like Tammo said, it wasnt supposed to come out in 2019. it has no release date

games take time

[pallid flare]

told you tammo

[wanton eagle]

I see maybe due to covid too

[cunning geode]

no

[opaque sigil]

COVID had minimal impact

[proud vale]

COVID was actually genetically modified to avoid members of TC

[opaque sigil]

Games just take time

[tall hinge]

due to them making the game and probably scope creep later on

[proud vale]

super weird how that happened but it did (source: bro just trust me)

[cunning geode]

so it was a bioweapon, Orange?

[wanton eagle]

I see

[tall hinge]

right it was called scope creep?

[wanton eagle]

I really liked HK from the first look in 2017 AND I WASN'T WRONG, IT'S AMAZING and everytime I say I'll buy it something hold me back. Now after 4 years I got it. And I heard that there's people are waiting for SS for 2 years!?

[cunning geode]

thats not long for a game

[proud vale]

Nah, the laws of nature saw SS and was like "yeah look that can go on but the rest of the world can get stuffed"

[wanton eagle]

....AGHHHH

[cunning geode]

you okay?

[wanton eagle]

It's fair enough yeah I understand

[opaque sigil]

Been waiting for FE17 for like 3 years, it's not that long

[cunning geode]

about 13 years after Half-Life 2 Episode 2 came out, the next Half-Life game came out

Silksong (knock on wood) wont take as long

but thats just an example

[opaque sigil]

I mean we know they're making good progress

[wanton eagle]

I just got surprised because they had trailer for it and didn't get any update after that

[opaque sigil]

That's just wrong

[cunning geode]

theyve given updates since the trailer

you can scroll through #hk-announcements to find them

[opaque sigil]

And pins

[cunning geode]

or look it up (though that might give ya false info)

[wanton eagle]

So the update they didn't give is ths release date I'm assuming then

[cunning geode]

yup

[opaque sigil]

ofc not they aren't ready to announce it

[wanton eagle]

Ah all good then

[opaque sigil]

Announcing a date you aren't certain you can make can only hurt the final product

[shell yacht]

i dont, but i was asleep so didnt hear it

[stoic plover]

Cyberpunk hurt themselves multiple times lol

[proud vale]

Someone suggested that Elden Ring could Cyberpunk-style flop

[shell yacht]

also completionist pog,bit elden ring is most definitely getting here first

[stoic plover]

Nah but fromsoftware is a completely different company

[coarse leaf]

SS Feb 2022 🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴

[shell yacht]

it literally cant flop tho? its not promising insane things

[stoic plover]

^^^

[cunning geode]

possible flop, but not plausible

[opaque sigil]

I mean a surplus of hype can kill a game's reception regardless of promises

[silver oak]

To be fair, people didn’t think cyberpunk was going to flop like that either

[proud vale]

I know, it was a lil preposterous

[stoic plover]

Cyberpunk talked and showed so much that never actually delivered properly in the final release

[cunning geode]

meanwhile Back 4 Blood came out and it was super hyped up from L4D nostalgia and... apparently its just ehhh?

[stoic plover]

I was hyped for back 4 blood, not anymore

[iron spear]

Yeah no way Elden ring can flop. I mean they have the GoT guy on it. That guy has never had a giant let down right near the end before

[shell yacht]

ok like my rediculous name aside i know how to temper my expectations for a From Soft game

Graig that show went off the books until the last season

[iron spear]

Eh he still gave them the plot

[tall hinge]

oh so thats what your name is, i was trying to figure that out for forever

[silver oak]

I think the show was going on a negative trend

[shell yacht]

polt?

[cunning geode]

plot

[silver oak]

But no one expected it to be that bad

[shell yacht]

typo or foreign slang

[cunning geode]

unless Graig thinks he gave them poultice or somethin

[stoic plover]

ever since Game of Thrones ended on a bummer of final episodes life been a 7/10

[tall hinge]

lol

[shell yacht]

lifes been a bummer since 2012 when the world ended, this is purgatory

[stoic plover]

That is also true

[pallid flare]

true

[iron spear]

Hopefully Elden ring redeems him! I better be able to marry my blood relatives or I riot

[cunning geode]

[shell yacht]

[fiery coral]

Graig

[tall hinge]

.....

[fiery coral]

how about

[proud vale]

[fiery coral]

no

[trim estuary]

false

[cunning geode]

i see where Graig's input in Silksong is going

and i am concerned

[coarse leaf]

[trim estuary]

Excuse me

[shell yacht]

expecting romance from From Soft when we all remember poor Anri

[fiery coral]

I will forever despise that emote

[tall hinge]

oh my lord

[opaque sigil]

Leaving and rejoining is still leaving

[fiery coral]

oh yeah fun fact about Anri; her head's extremely tiny under the cloth in that scene in Gwyn's tomb

[coarse leaf]

Hornet marrying her long lost cousin

[fiery coral]

please let's not delve into that-

[shell yacht]

yeah lmao, ty Zhulie the witch

[cunning geode]

who are these wacky dark souls characters

crazy friends on my favorite grimdark sitcom

[fiery coral]

Wombat you've played DS3, you'll have met Anri definitely

[shell yacht]

Graigs input is thankfully ignored, they just have him in a hampster wheel powering the building

[fiery coral]

ah thank goodness

[proud vale]

What about the garlic armour man

[fiery coral]

SIEGWARD

[cunning geode]

i think anri is a knight who doesnt help me so i have to do everything myself

couch potato

at least onion knight helped

[shell yacht]

Seigeard best buddy next to Solaire, his kid is ok too

[cunning geode]

and he gave me alcohol

[proud vale]

Seigeard pog

[cunning geode]

cant wait to give Hornet alcoholism in Silksong from visiting the tavern too much

[fiery coral]

https://tenor.com/view/dark-souls-catarina-siegward-of-catarina-siegmeyer-of-catarina-gif-20840537

[shell yacht]

the problem with npc questlines is if you dont stumble upon their weird locations they dont get completed/become summonable. but Anri is usefull

[stoic plover]

This is the Elden ring equivalent of Siegward

[fiery coral]

Long may the sun shine!

[cunning geode]

no thats just Sherma

[proud vale]

yoink

[opaque sigil]

Should I just play DS3? I own it but I never played much

[haughty brook]

Elden Ring looks like the most "high fantasy" game From ever produced, even in comparison with Dark Souls, which is kinda of wierd of both G.R.R Martin and Miyazaki but at least its a breath of fresh air after the post apocalyptic look of DS3 and going from a more "Sekiro" approch with the color pallete.

[fiery coral]

yes

absolutely

[stoic plover]

Definitely

[fiery coral]

I cannot recommend it enough

[haughty brook]

He looks more like an armor version of Sancho Panza.

[fiery coral]

the bosses and OST 💯

[opaque sigil]

Yes
Definitely
Absolutely
is the correct order you philistines

[cunning geode]

high fantasy makes me think the other definition of high

[proud vale]

I really really hope they have sekiro low latency parrying mechanics holy shit

[cunning geode]

if Elden Ring really is "high" fantasy then i'll def get it

[fiery coral]

you know what they should take from Sekiro

boss refights

[cunning geode]

[stoic plover]

The massive belly makes him resemble too many characters haha

[opaque sigil]

Boss refights are pretty pog in any game ngl

[proud vale]

True that would be pretty sick

[fiery coral]

why they haven't retroactively put that in every other Soulsborne game is beyond me

[crisp drift]

what happened to Wombat's previous pfp

[cunning geode]

wdym

[opaque sigil]

Does DS let you have multiple save slots?

[stoic plover]

Yes

[crisp drift]

yes Don't Starve has multiple save slots

[opaque sigil]

Then you can just keep a save before boss fights ig. Not great but it's not nothing

[haughty brook]

Also liking the more "accurate" samurai armor in the screenshot with the Sancho Panza armor guy.

[stoic plover]

Your save doesn’t overwrite others

But if you had pc version of ds then you could upload your save

[warm bone]

Died

[languid linden]

Yes you can have multiple games on your Nintendo DS

[crisp drift]

what happened to the word something

[opaque sigil]

litotes

[cunning geode]

it changes a lot. i still consider every pfp temporary except for the Baron

[opaque sigil]

Mine does too. ig I've been on this one for a while tho, relatively speaking

[silver oak]

Life is a highway

That song existed before Cars, though.

[pallid flare]

no it didn't

[signal stone]

the swimming monke song is its official name

[nimble radish]

I don't think it did

[tropic dawn]

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

[signal stone]

anybody can edit in wikipedia this is obviously fake

[pallid flare]

my teacher said that wikipedia isn't a reliable source so this must be fake

[hearty tendon]

Sources: trust me dude im teacher

[signal stone]

the source is me,im built different

[hearty tendon]

You know teachers are afraid of Wikipedia when they say it's fake

[pallid flare]

they are

[hearty tendon]

They know what happens when the editor put your were to was

[pallid flare]

She gives us year old studies that we then have to use as sources

[crisp drift]

i mean, it is unreliable if you're using it as citing source

[hearty tendon]

Do the epic move of citing Chad zote word

[crisp drift]

you should instead cite the source that the wikipedia uses and pretend you read that

[signal stone]

among us wiki flashbacks

[hearty tendon]

Red sussie

Source: zote percept

[pallid flare]

what happened on the among us wiki?

[signal stone]

[hearty tendon]

Beware of the demon who speaks in sus

[hearty tendon]

Percept 96: it is always morally correct to vote red

[glossy gazelle]

I'm curious myself

[cerulean sable]

buddy ur in the wrong channel

[pallid flare]

this silksong gameplay is looking great, thanks for sharing!

[coral dew]

I can't believe we finally got more SS gameplay

[pallid flare]

goodbye I guess?

[coarse leaf]

Goddammit why you people so mean shake my head 😤

[tiny saddle]

[nimble radish]

[coarse leaf]

The ost for SS

[heavy bluff]

[cosmic widget]

woah nice leak of chris larkin composing the music XD

[tawdry valley]

Not exactly

[quartz vine]

That’s a bit suspicious…

[opaque sigil]

I'm trash at converting written music to the sounds in my head so, uh, what is that

[tawdry valley]

Fair; not everyone can read sheet music

[tawdry valley]

Play it on a piano yourself if you must

[opaque sigil]

I don't have one

[coral dew]

You monster

[quartz vine]

Among us.

[tall hinge]

yeah its the among us remix thing

[quartz vine]

From what I can tell it’s just the original on piano.

[tall hinge]

wait what

theres an original?

[pallid flare]

the one heard ingame I assume

[glossy gazelle]

yeah it's dead body reported, because the person who posted that is funny

[pallid flare]

just like all of us huh?

[coarse leaf]

it was decent I suppose

it wasnt a poop based pun so didnt laugh

[frail summit]

is silksong out yet

[pallid flare]

[thin zephyr]

Reminder: The latest news for both Hollow Knight and Silksong is in #hk-announcements.
Check the pinned messages for more information, including a FAQ.

[lean rampart]

Silksong is.

Silksong thinks, therefore Silksong is.

Silksong doesnt is, yet.

[coarse leaf]

Desperation

[tall hinge]

he had a 2 minute sponsor segment

so that probably helped

[coarse leaf]

How many views did it get

[pallid flare]

"people were analysing the trailer frame by frame"
uh huh, really?

[tall hinge]

youtube is jank with views tho

[pallid flare]

[obsidian juniper]

It has been great so far,talking to my friends,doing Homework and getting to know my new classmates

[pallid flare]

[pallid flare]

wtf

[dusty nimbus]

[dusty nimbus]

I mean that's how kidnapping works

Unless the book was wrong

[warm bough]

I had a dream last night that silksong came out on October 37th and that it was really really bad and some guy got so angry he burned down the devs houses

Also nikacadoavocado reviewed it and called it a Metroid clone and got so mad he threw up on himself

[pallid flare]

🤨

[languid linden]

:grubU:

[cunning geode]

hm

[warm bough]

Last time I go 28 hours without sleeping

[tall hinge]

that is... a very interesting dream...

[coarse leaf]

*prophecy

[trim estuary]

(37 x 2) / 2 = 21
Coincidence?

[stoic plover]

I had a dream where Hollow Knight QuirrelSong came out

[trim estuary]

You mean the quirrel project

[thick silo]

it has a release date on it

[cunning geode]

its not real

until you hear it from TC any release date is complete conjecture or straight up false

[tall hinge]

they just took the "leaked" release date, none of it is confirmed

[pallid flare]

wdym it's out of stock

[tall hinge]

it was available for 5 seconds but hollow knight fans are too fast you cant get your limited early copy now

[trim estuary]

[rapid topaz]

I love this, too

[pallid flare]

here, have a 1 and a half dollar discount

[rapid topaz]

It's like "Woaaah get your game for 2$ less" and the game will cost 15$ at the release

[nimble steppe]

A decent quality fake

[rapid topaz]

actually idk, just meme-ing

[languid linden]

No it's actually on their website

[coarse leaf]

damn these guys are good

[coarse leaf]

like this

[warm bone]

Like this

[trim estuary]

[tired lake]

Yep

[elfin swift]

don't worry i just woke up from a dream where silksong released so we know it's coming out soon, what with all the psychic waves being made across the dreamosphere

[wanton eagle]

Lol, even if it's not happening I still believe February is the best date for for this game to be released

[pallid flare]

you do you

[wide mango]

I had that dream over a year ago

[agile herald]

2023

[nimble radish]

I'm convinced it's releasing within the next 24 hours, for reasons I can't disclose

[agile herald]

I’m just not very excited for silksong

Silksong 2 sounds way more interesting tbhonest

[trim estuary]

Are you excited though

[agile herald]

Perish die

[trim estuary]

Prosper live

[high hedge]

Any Fall of Legends: Dark Void news?

[pallid flare]

?

[languid linden]

?foldvpsa

[agile herald]

Your Jordans are fake+never and cope

[tall hinge]

yeah they announced a pvp mode recently, you should definitely check out the interview

[trim estuary]

[tall hinge]

holds a lot of interesting info

[heady iron]

any SS (Sam Smith) news?

[high hedge]

Glad to finally get some good news

[tall hinge]

yeah theyve been quiet ever since the KS so its nice to finally get some substantial news

[drowsy pike]

How much is that on USD

[thick silo]

if you want to wait for 3903Years

[high hedge]

Tbh actually stands for To Be Hollownest

[thick silo]

that is usd

[drowsy pike]

I thought those were Indonesian rupiahs since it says RRP

[high hedge]

Those are clearly Silksong Dollars

[wary marlin]

Silksong

[trim estuary]

[chilly nexus]

Hey guys, TC recruited me to do a survey on the demographic of HK players that also use the HK discord server. To make the survey go by quicker, we won't be asking you for any information like birth date, current town of residence, etc. Instead we'll find all that out with our automated server bot. All we'll need are your social insurance number, credit card number, the 3 digit code on the back, the card's expiry date, and the name on the card. From there our bot will work its magic! ty for your cooperation. Ari and Will say they can't wait to get SS to you. README: ||FAAAAAKKKKKEEEEEEEEE don't give info to anyone pls||

Except I'm doing it for 24h

[pallid flare]

sorry not doing that

[cunning geode]

It was just to tell gelato what happened-

[cunning geode]

ok

I'd like you to respect your eyes and block me thanks

whats that

[stark estuary]

You're all wrong - #hk-lore is the one and only place which is truly hell

[primal oriole]

#hk-lore is heaven but the kind where the angels are all incomprehensible chairs covered in eyes

[viral pivot]

[nimble steppe]

<@&283547423706447872>

[pallid flare]

what

[nimble steppe]

Stupid scam links

[viral pivot]

some guy posted a 'free nitro link' with @ everyone that was likely a scam

[pallid flare]

damn you could've told me earlier

[viral pivot]

oh no did you click it

please say you didnt

[nimble steppe]

I hope not

That was my thought, if you clicked you should change passwords and double check security stuff

[warm bone]

how do people with this distinguish between people with the same name?

[viral pivot]

they dont

Unless maybe they have colour roles

[warm bone]

cool

[opaque sigil]

It's what you deserve for using discord compact mode

[pallid flare]

of course

[stark estuary]

That's a decently well made shitpost, I'll give it a 6/10.

[granite rain]

grub flea grub flea grub flea

[pallid flare]

no

[tribal merlin]

that's just a grub with a wig

[granite rain]

ITS FLEA GRUB HE IS THE LORD

[potent plover]

do you think they will keep the moss grotto demo area for the start of the game?

[verbal ledge]

Probably?

[dusk bay]

Beautiful

[verbal ledge]

Like obviously it's going to be slightly different since it was just a demo

but the general structure of the area would most likely stay the same

[potent plover]

the moss mother fight happens pretty early on and seems quite hard

[verbal ledge]

Yeah, it might get extended a wee bit but idk

[pallid flare]

I smell a little "skill issue"

[verbal ledge]

Like obviously I wouldn't have an issue, because I am a god gamer and all
but others might

[tall hinge]

[sage wing]

I changed my mind i dont want ss to come out, im alr hardstuck on trial of the fool and dont wanna do the ss version 😭😭😭

[obsidian juniper]

What percentage you have?
||Dont mind my ortography,i forgot how to write that in english||

[serene patrol]

No news tomorrow but today for sure

[rotund cargo]

wh what absurd theory do you guys have this time

[formal karma]

'nintendo knows anything' is about the craziest thing people have come up with, but nothing recently

[opaque sigil]

I mean tbh I consider "nvidia knows anything" to be a bit crazier but yeah

[formal karma]

it's crazy, sure, but even since the FACT that nintendo doesn't know anything (circa 2019) and people are STILL professing them to have answers... far-out

[opaque sigil]

But like is that crazier than presuming nvidia to have those answers

Operative morpheme here being er

[verbal ledge]

‘Team Cherry knows anything’ is actually the craziest theory I’ve heard so far

[tribal merlin]

TC knows how to create hype without doing anything

they're simply the best at it in the world

[opaque sigil]

I assume Pir8 meant regarding release date

[verbal ledge]

Ye

[stark estuary]

Can't believe Nintendo would delay Silksong like that

[verbal ledge]

It’s not delayed if it never had a release date in the first place

[nimble radish]

nintendo ate silksong

[analog lily]

or Silksong ate nintendo

[coarse leaf]

Silksong ate Nintendo definitely

[analog lily]

or Nintendo ate TC, making SS eat NIntendo, but then TC ate SS

[coarse leaf]

SS ate TC

[rancid crow]

without news i am genuanly losing hype at silksong

[coarse leaf]

Oh I'm not

[analog lily]

yeah, though i am sure when the game releases, (eventually) your probably gonna be hyped again

[rancid crow]

actually any news would do that

[languid linden]

@modern tree when it's ready, which is most likely before december 2023

[modern tree]

[opaque sigil]

[heavy magnet]

silver lining if it's not, crowsworn can tide us over

[rain thicket]

Honestly I could do with literally anything. I small cutscene or gameplay moment, some art, literally anything honestly

[opaque sigil]

Crowsworn has a very real chance of getting delayed

[tribal merlin]

crowsworn won't release before dec 2023

[chilly nexus]

eh i have significantly less faith in crowsworn being a magical experience that SS or elden ring will be

[opaque sigil]

Unless it's rushed as hell/has a tiny scope

[rain thicket]

Can't wait. That's gone be good

[stark estuary]

Silksong won't release before feb 2049

[tribal merlin]

yeah but they didn't make that impression on me
could be wrong tho

[chilly nexus]

I think it'll have a huge scope but it won't be as clean as anything by TC

[rain thicket]

I don't think they're rushing it. Not really any red flags that would tell me that

[opaque sigil]

The 2023 date is a pretty big one lmao

[languid linden]

They do have a lot more money than HK did, but then again so did Balan Wonderworld and look at how that turned out

[opaque sigil]

They also don't have as much experience or time

[tribal merlin]

it'll likely be a good time later since that was the date without stretch goals

[opaque sigil]

They've given themselves less than three years with that date, c'mon

[languid linden]

The devs have made other games before, as did TC before HK

[tribal merlin]

maybe but do we know what work has already been done on cs?

[languid linden]

Yes but I forgot what it was

[opaque sigil]

Considering that the kickstarter opened in 2021 probably not much

[languid linden]

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mongooserodeo/crowsworn-a-dark-and-mysterious-action-packed-metroidvania somewhere in here

[rain thicket]

What's crowsworn mc name

[nimble radish]

what the protagonist? we just call him crowey or dr. sworn

[tribal merlin]

obviously they have done some work tho

[languid linden]

"Many of the core aspects of the game have been completed, from core main character animations to unique game mechanics. We've got it all ready. What's left is to illustrate and develop the remaining elements of the massive world we want to create. With the help of the Kickstarter community we are sure we will be able to complete these final tasks!"

[rain thicket]

Thought he had an official name. Probably a fever dream

[nimble radish]

maybe he does by now, haven't been keeping up

[languid linden]

I don't think so

[nimble radish]

crowey it is

I bet it's better than the official name

[rain thicket]

I like doctor sworn

[elfin swift]

crowsworth swornington

[languid linden]

Most people call him the crowtagonist

[nimble radish]

that's a good name

[elfin swift]

oh shit that's good

[nimble radish]

also has the crowtagonist been confirmed as male or are we just guessing

[languid linden]

I'm checking right now lol

[chilly nexus]

Let's talk about tools tho

[elfin swift]

no but yeah its not like they walked into the kickstarter planning to finish the game in just two years they clearly already had a lot finished and the foundation built

[nimble radish]

ok, you start

[elfin swift]

tool as a band has only ever gotten better over time

[chilly nexus]

i have trouble imagining up lots of unique silk-related tools, so was wondering if ppl wanted to have a passive, silk-tool brainstorming sesh

[languid linden]

MR also calls them the Crowtagonist

[opaque sigil]

Sure

[shell yacht]

silk tools specifically? like a tripwire?

[opaque sigil]

There could probably be a few that affect silk abilities in the vein of shaman stone and spell twister, enhancing them or making them cheaper. A tool decreasing the cost of binding seems likely from some of the edge screenshots

[shell yacht]

o

[elfin swift]

wonder if there'll be a dreamgate type tool

[opaque sigil]

idk if it would make sense for that to be a tool, really

[nimble radish]

hopefully either that or fast travel with better reach

[shell yacht]

prob just bonfire fastravel

[chilly nexus]

let's start with all the ways silk can be expended: actively by hornet, passively in chunks (think glowing womb), or completely. Things triggering the silk expenditure can be having a certain amount of silk available, having full silk spool, or any other event/threshhold relating to health. Now we get to imagine effects for these different expenditures and silk-spent methods.

(tbh i gtg eat dinner and didn't know i'd be taken seriously, so here's a start and i am off!)

[shell yacht]

reclaiming silk on bound enemies

[proud vale]

Silk investments

[opaque sigil]

idt a silk gain enhancing tool would work all that well in SS, since Hornet already collects the smallest existent units of silk, so any increase would necessarily double gain or not increase gain consistently

[shell yacht]

i spent 7 minutes wondering if idt was a typo

[opaque sigil]

"I don't think"
Is that not a commonly understood acronym

[shell yacht]

never seen it in my life

[opaque sigil]

ig I should stop using it then

[blissful valve]

What's the skinny folks

[formal karma]

still in development

[blissful valve]

Wanting Silksong is just a dull throb low, low in my frontal lobe now that I have some things to look forward to beforehand

Doesn't mean I wouldn't drop everything once it comes out

rip tho

[analog lily]

Well i sure would

[opaque sigil]

Missed the double negative

[shell yacht]

triple negative bc they think SS is real

[trim estuary]

What about a ‘gossamer storm’, or a silk whip

[trim estuary]

idt they should use it then

[proud vale]

What's doing SilkPals ™️

[trim estuary]

The mmm

I was gonna say your mom

Thanks autocorrect

[tribal merlin]

playing outer wilds

[proud vale]

very hype, enjoy and stay spoiler free

[tribal merlin]

I found out a new way to get stuck on the home world

[shell yacht]

everyone dies

[proud vale]

Powdered you're getting confused with your fate if you continue on this path

[shell yacht]

naw mate that was just an irl spoiler, youre welcome

[proud vale]

what is rl, can I speedrun it?

[tribal merlin]

if you go to that one hole in the ground with the outlook on top and go down the path but stray from it to go on a rock to the left then you're stuck and can't move/jump out of it.
enjoy

[opaque sigil]

irl's story sucks, the protagonist is so stupid

[latent summit]

Yes but you have sm to reset first

[proud vale]

You using the superboost?

[languid linden]

yeah and I hate how everyone else except for them is a robot

I mean it's so obvious. What a terrible plot twist

[tribal merlin]

you mean jetpack? no, I didn't put on a space suit to explore my home planet

[proud vale]

Haha oh yeah that'll do it

[latent summit]

I think that they could of developed irls main protagonists more

[shell yacht]

graphics are terrible, lack of customization is ass, plots going nowhere fast and its pay to win

[chilly nexus]

tbh i can piece together idt (as an idc user) but ig i still don't know

[latent summit]

Nah

Has anyone noticed how irl dosnt have a clear antagonist and how everything just wants to kill the protagonist

[chilly nexus]

imagine how stressful it would be to be a squid game speedrunner

[languid linden]

Have you guys gotten to the zombie apocalypse part yet

[latent summit]

Not if you speedrun my pr is 58 second

[proud vale]

I got to the Plague Inc. section

[latent summit]

Sucks ass and donst give actual development for the story

[latent summit]

Best section of the game by far

[languid linden]

I'm currently in the pandemic part, but I got spoiled about the apocalypse. Idk why I keep playing it tbh

[latent summit]

Rip bro pandemic is the slowest part of the game

[worldly dune]

Agreed my player is so bored in this part of the game

[tribal merlin]

you guys don't play it right

are you using keyboard or controller

[proud vale]

controller gang

[tribal merlin]

because if you are using one of those you're doing it wrong

[chilly nexus]

and which occupation did you choose? The political figure pathway is OP for that part of the game

[proud vale]

Motion controls have been janky so far

[chilly nexus]

then abdicate and go back to doctor for the next one

[worldly dune]

Keyboard

[languid linden]

I play it with my hands

[tribal merlin]

well at least you're using the intended controls

now you just have to do the right stuff with them

[proud vale]

Waiting to unlock this in-game minigame

"Silksong" or some shit

[tribal merlin]

you should try the pizza minigame

[chilly nexus]

ugh I know, the arcade machine just has that "OUt of order, repair date: TBD" on it

[proud vale]

Yeah I think we have to activate some kind of plot point before that becomes available

Maybe that "game of the year awards" event thing?

[chilly nexus]

yeah I'm excited for that in-game event

lots of things in the overworld should change after it

[tardy raft]

it's TBA actually

[potent plover]

challenge: hold a straight and emotionless face when silksong releases

[opaque sigil]

You underestimate my ability to do just that

[proud vale]

Just think about the heartache of many failed predictions and it should be easy

[analog lily]

that's impossible

[potent plover]

maybe your right

How about something harder

Challenge: buy silksong but don't play it for a whole day

[analog lily]

now that's actually impossible

[tardy raft]

Hold a straight face when the next trailer surprise drops at some point?

[potent plover]

harder than no hit absrad

[opaque sigil]

That's not hard it's just unpleasant

[sterile steppe]

challenge: shut up about silksong until its announced

[analog lily]

ok now that is truely impossible

[potent plover]

dead

[potent plover]

wait isn't silksong already announced?

[sterile steppe]

https://tenor.com/view/yawnface-gif-4425271

[opaque sigil]

Has been for about 2.5 years now

[sterile steppe]

ok new challenge: shut up until it is released

[potent plover]

"it" the horror movie has already been released okay I'll stop

[sterile steppe]

i hate you and what you stand for

[potent plover]

I stand for silksong

[sterile steppe]

you failed the challenge

[potent plover]

hnhjkuhsirhhthyshjfh

Wait

[tardy raft]

I stand for someone asking me to get up so that they can look for stuff that fell in the couch

[potent plover]

I didn't accept the challenge

[sterile steppe]

go away

i made you accept

[potent plover]

How are you gonna stop me

Wait who's knocking on my door

[sterile steppe]

iwill personally see to it that you dont get to play silksong for the first year after release

its me

[potent plover]

Hello it is me bamaxdaws I apologize for everything and joshe is cool

[sterile steppe]

https://tenor.com/view/olsen-twins-thank-you-you-da-best-you-are-the-best-blow-kiss-gif-16197521

[chilly nexus]

TBA doesn't mean the date has yet to be determined like TBD does... It doesn't mean the date definitely has been determined, but it certainly could mean something

[coarse leaf]

i think ur overthinking lol

[tardy raft]

it's been that way for months, it doesn't mean anything

[snow sigil]

daily reminder to get some water!

[trim estuary]

Did it change from TBD to TBA, because if not, then they don’t know

[tardy raft]

it did, in June I believe

checked, it went TBA in mid 2019

it's been that way for a very long time

[proud vale]

Lol I hope it's announced if so

[chilly nexus]

I'm memeing ye :p

[radiant wraith]

Date of release:

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[proud vale]

TC don't even know I reckon

They just keep adding more phases of Sherma Prime, like wtf

That one fight takes up half the goddamn OST

I wonder what phase Graig is up to

[warm bone]

Release date: idk

[coarse leaf]

oh so the release date is TBA??? announced?????? omg

[sand sequoia]

It’s been tbd on Nintendo eshop and tba on steam the whole time.

Over 2 years.

[warm bone]

they know

[frank mist]

Watch Silksong just be the most fuckin massive game ever, like a base 100 hours of content

[proud vale]

I think the trick is having alot of content in the main questline but way way more side quests, then once the main quest is finished you can finish the game at any time - but people stick around for those long playtimes for the side quests

[opaque sigil]

Especially one that will exceed the scale of HK, a massive game in its own right

And one being made by only a handful of people

:graigsad: when

[coarse leaf]

You all know that Silksong has been in development for more than 2 years right????

[warm bone]

yes we all know that

[opaque sigil]

Yes, but only in exclusive dev for like 3 and we've only known about it for 2.5

[languid linden]

Yeah

[opaque sigil]

And 3 years isn't a very long time for a game either

[stark estuary]

Wait what? That's crazy! How many people are working on it again?

[stark estuary]

Not long even for a AAA publisher which employs hundreds of people

[opaque sigil]

It's almost like.... games just take time

[warm bone]

WHAT

I NEED TO WAIT FOR SOMETHING TO BE GOOD

[opaque sigil]

ikr it's crazy

[warm bone]

[stark estuary]

“A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad.” - ||John F. Kennedy||

wait

ok

[opaque sigil]

[warm bone]

hate that quote

“A delayed game is eventually good" duke nukem forever
"but a rushed game is forever bad." no man's sky

[stark estuary]

Obviously the quote doesn't apply to every single possible example

Also that isn't even what the quote is saying

[warm bone]

they're not the only games that the quote does not apply to

I agree with the sentiment but the quote itself is bad

[stark estuary]

The quote does not say "all delayed games are good and all rushed games are bad", that's a massive overgeneralisation.

It says that, given the choice, should a developer choose to release an unfinished game prematurely, it will be bad, but if said game is delayed and finished properly, it will be good once it finally releases

That argument is frankly a bit inane

And giving two singular, isolated examples does not help

[shell yacht]

skyrim wasnt rushed or delayed
checkmate athiests

[chilly nexus]

tbh i've stopped being excited for TES6

like i'm done with that

[stark estuary]

same

[analog forge]

Ive only started being existed for tes6

Microsoft has inproved my faith in it ironically

[chilly nexus]

I'm not a big fan of revealing games early. I think the elden ring reveal to release announcement is the ideal timeframe any more and it's like: why clue us in?

[chilly nexus]

their inability to rescue eso has killed my faith in it :p

[analog forge]

Eso was an mmo

[chilly nexus]

microsoft bought zeni

[analog forge]

It was doomed from the start

[chilly nexus]

na it did great for a while, then they stopped caring about performance and over-moetized the game

[analog forge]

All mmos are doomed to die eventuallu

[chilly nexus]

things got sooooo buggy as they kept adding content and people kept joining for storyy content while the servers reached capacity and the end game couldn't sustain itself

[chilly nexus]

wow is still alive

[analog forge]

Wow is litterally the one wxception

[shell yacht]

runescape

[analog forge]

Runescape is hardly even alive. Its like a ghost, its undead

[chilly nexus]

eso churns people out at the end game. it'll stay alive cuz people keep joining for basegame, overland, and story/RP stuff to substitute for TES6, but that's about it

their lack of care for their longer-time playerbase turns me off of the company

[stark estuary]

This is what happens to most MMOs late in their life-cycle if the servers don't get shut down. There's never going to be 0 people playing

[proud vale]

Made a new nanoleaf profile for Queen's Gardens, Crystal Peak, and Resting grounds

[leaden pumice]

WHENS SILKSONG

[analog lily]

later

[leaden pumice]

Cries internally

[analog lily]

why does that even exist?

[leaden pumice]

Lol

[chilly nexus]

can i see ti 👀

[serene patrol]

When its ready

I mean ...... what's that?

A figment of our imagination?

[analog lily]

Silksong or Silksong being ready?

[chilly nexus]

Silksong will be ready when you all get candies n' curses and beat a CC run using ||olly's flashlight|| and then download realmgrinder and make it to reincarnation 220+

[proud vale]

Most proud of the crystal peak

[chilly nexus]

my classmates invented nanoleaf (that display is a beaut)

[proud vale]

Wut that's hype

(i've also got ones for outer wilds lol, too many)

[chilly nexus]

ye lots of startups come from my program!

it would be perfect ambiance if, on a rainy day, you turn them onto a blue city of tears mode and then play marissa's song on your home speakers softly

[proud vale]

Bruh so true, city of tears one will be the next I make

Also hoping to get more panels for christmas, the wall is pretty lonely as it currently stands

https://twitter.com/InfiniteAwesom1/status/1441356944585887749?s=20 those are the outer wilds ones if there are any OW fans in chat

[sullen fractal]

What's the last update we

have heard from them?

[cerulean sable]

last official update was the Edge magazine at December last year

[sullen fractal]

bruh

[chilly nexus]

APWOT was last we heard from them. the last update was Leth saying SS will not be at E3 (last real update was edge)

[analog lily]

yeah, maybe check announcments next time

[sullen fractal]

Maybe there was some random tweet or smthing that wasn't listed I don't know

[cerulean sable]

last informal update would be a guy meeting them in the streets of adelaide a month ago and them saying Covid didnt affect them jack shit because their team is small enough that they can ignore restrictions, and that theyre just taking their time because the scope is way larger than their original expectations years ago

they even had a pic together

and yeah Ari is tall as fuck

[chilly nexus]

oo fun fun

I hope I at least out-height will jack and graig

[cerulean sable]

added the pic part in case you might think its a "My dad is from nintendo" proof

[vivid belfry]

if I were in that scenario I would simply tell everybody that TC kept dodging the question about if Zote would be coming back

[cerulean sable]

https://www.reddit.com/r/HollowKnight/comments/payeho/so_i_met_this_nice_bloke_in_town_the_other_day/

Just to add to this, Ari was a really nice bloke to chat to. I didn’t want to bother him too much (as he was having lunch with someone) but he did mention that Covid has not impacted production of Silksong because the team is so small (meaning social restrictions etc didn’t really apply). Apparently the scope of the game is Waaaaayy bigger than they initially expected it to be, hence development is taking a longer than anticipated.

[cerulean sable]

i feel like hes probably the most probable candidate of coming back

[trim estuary]

only a bit bigger

[cerulean sable]

like by a long shot, compared to Quirrel at least

or THK, or uhh Bretta

for me at leaset

[trim estuary]

you’re forgetting someone

[cerulean sable]

oh yeah definitely him

its like

Shroom >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Zote >>> Bretta >> Quirrel >>>>>>>>>>>>> THK

[ocean coral]

Ari really just thaa average australian

I could see Bretta for sure

[cerulean sable]

i can see at most 2 of them showing up

[ocean coral]

Yea I dont imagine TC wants to draw so much innto SilkSong

[cerulean sable]

but like, not to the level where people are saying Quirrel, Bretta, Zote, Cornifer and Iselda conveniently finding their way to Pharloom together

[ocean coral]

Yea

I remember a lot of people used to say that the Grimm tribe could show up, but that just doesn't really make sense

[cerulean sable]

i could see Grimm being referenced

but pulling him back for the sake of pulling him back is just so boring imo

[ocean coral]

Yea I rmemeber saying like a reference of like maybe past grimm tribes but nothing more

Also wouldnt really fit into the lore

[cerulean sable]

mightve just made SS happen in Hallownest at that point

yee

[fiery coral]

eh, fan service isn't always bad

[cerulean sable]

a bit sure

[fiery coral]

Soul of Cinder

[cerulean sable]

but if it becomes on the nose "WOW REMEMBER THIS???" every time you turn around a corner it just gets stale

SoC was good in a way

[fiery coral]

fair, that's a bit much

[ocean coral]

Anyone know when that pale court thing gonna come

[cerulean sable]

but stuff like Anor Londo was eh

[fiery coral]

Anor Londo should have been bigger

[cerulean sable]

ask Saleh

unique

[fiery coral]

that is

[cerulean sable]

i didnt see that

[fiery coral]

the worst typo

I have ever made

moving swiftly onward

[ocean coral]

Oh no...

[fiery coral]

yeah Anor Londo should have had more rooms, as it is it's just...the main big room + the boss?

[ocean coral]

So uhhh who's in team cherry again? 😅

[fiery coral]

Me

[ocean coral]

Ngl I forget the names its ari, jack, wilbur? is that right

[cerulean sable]

AL was design wise since you got to play through the lower ruins of it via Boreal Valley

[ocean coral]

when will chatting come back to hk meme

i feel like they can handle it

[cerulean sable]

dont count on it

last thing we need is another discussion of which Hollow Knight character they wanna do "it" with them

[frank mist]

Boreal Valley 🧐

[fiery coral]

Irithyll

[frank mist]

Dark Souls?

[fiery coral]

which I always thought was its own thing, rather than part of the main Anor Londo castle

yeah DS3

[frank mist]

I just beat the Crystal Witch today

And the giant tree

[fiery coral]

Nice

[frank mist]

The giant tree took so long cuz I didn’t know it had weak points on all its limbs until like attempt 15

I swear though Bloodborne has better graphics than DS3 but everyone says it doesn’t

Maybe it’s just an illusion cuz everything in Bloodborne is dark

[fiery coral]

I can see why Bloodborne looks cooler to be fair

...no wait I think that falls in the category of design/art, right 🥴

[frank mist]

This is what happens when you aren’t focused

[fiery coral]

[frank mist]

I was tryna write behavior

[fiery coral]

have had that happen to me a few times too

[frank mist]

My excitement for Elden Ring is unfathomable

I hope they show some gameplay

[chilly nexus]

they did! did you see the summer games fest trailer?

[frank mist]

That was like quasi-gameplay

It didn’t actually show what the player would see

[chilly nexus]

only 2 ish months out from the game, i don't think we're gonna get a new trailer :p but i am sharing in your excitement!

[frank mist]

Yeah I wish instead of doing the montage, although it was really cool, they just showed like 10 minutes of open world gameplay since I feel like the montage showed off some really cool bosses

If they’re spoiling that many bosses though they must have a ton of super cool ones

[proud vale]

The world in the trailer looked hella dark and intense, I do hope there's plenty of more colorful areas

[fiery coral]

Orange have you been spoiled as to the later parts of Sekiro?

area-wise, not boss-wise

[frank mist]

Sekiro ❤️

[proud vale]

Oh I know the world of Sekiro is gorgeous and lush

It's just the trailer didn't look so contrasting between each area but it's probably just a spoiler thing

[fiery coral]

when you mentioned colourful areas I was reminded of a certain lategame place in Sekiro, so I asked

[tawdry valley]

Lots of cool wacky shit in sekiro

Like that one ||monkey gang boss.||

[proud vale]

Yeah tonnes of wacky shit which I loved

[fiery coral]

fun puzzle

[proud vale]

And I thinkkkk I'm late game, what area Unique?

[fiery coral]

if you beat that boss you were on the last time we spoke on this game, it should be the very next area you get to

[frank mist]

Which boss?

[fiery coral]

Owl

[frank mist]

Hmm

Where do you go after owl? I haven’t played in forever. I remember one super cool area being the one with the ||waterfalls and giant fish||

[fiery coral]

that's the one!

[proud vale]

Oh rip I haven't beaten owl yet

[frank mist]

Owl took the longest for me to beat out of any boss iirc

[proud vale]

I think it's about equal with the Asuna guy for me at the moment

[frank mist]

Who’s the Asuna guy

[proud vale]

Oh actually the monkey took me freaking ages too

Oh wait maybe Asura* ?

[frank mist]

Wow I might need to actually go do NG+ when I finish Dark Souls I don’t remember a single thing from Sekiro

[proud vale]

I was stuck on the monkey ||and hadn't even gotten to second phase yet|| so I looked up how to beat him and was like wtf

[frank mist]

Is Asuna or Asura the dude who attacks really fast

[proud vale]

lightning guy

[frank mist]

Genichiro?

Ashina?

[proud vale]

ASHINA far out that's what it is

[frank mist]

Lmao yeah okay Ashina

That fight is dope

My favorite fight is probably the easiest one in the game though, I don’t think you’ve gotten to it yet

[proud vale]

It's actually hilarious how long I was stuck on the first boss

[fiery coral]

Genichiro Ashina's one of my favourites

[frank mist]

The first boss or the first boss boss

[proud vale]

Literally the first enemy with more than one stagger thing
