~~Well, truthfully, there's no actual way to tell, so tamershrug ~~ But yeah I certainly wouldn't bet on it.

I love pings from 3 days ago hornetping

#

XD

opaque sigil
#

That's nothing I got a ping from 27 days ago once zote

stark estuary
#

Expect a ping on the 21st, I still haven't forgotten btw.

"Hi how are you" waits 27 days

  • "Good, and u" feelspkman
brittle garnet
#

I think we will, itd be kinda odd if we had no news for a whole year, and Leth said he's pushing TC to make more blogpost

coarse leaf
#

now you've got a new record

proud vale
#

Yeah it's hard to say, I really hope they do...

brittle garnet
#

Yeah... Beesive

opaque sigil
#

tbh I'd be perfectly fine if they don't

pallid flare
#

in that interview

brittle garnet
#

In his interview with indie gamer

#

Back in uhh... Earlier this year.

viral pivot
#

a few months ago

coarse leaf
#

it was in July lol

opaque sigil
#

I mean unless Leth just started pushing TC to make more blogposts around the time of that interview it doesn't mean anything. He may just have been pushing all along, it doesn't mean TC is likely to start making more blogposts

brittle garnet
#

Yeah...

coarse leaf
#

I mean how long can it take to write a blogpost... it's just 3 paragraphs and some photos

brittle garnet
#

Up to a week

#

According to reliable info

#

I wonder if the previous sorta regular 6 month interval between news was completely accidental

opaque sigil
#

It's 3 very carefully curated paragraphs and screenshots, and it takes time to select fanart, plus there's the disruptive nature of stopping development for a while and starting it back up again, and the blog posts don't really accomplish anything substantial anyways

coarse leaf
brittle garnet
#

God I just hope the next news is the release date so there's no more ambiguous waiting

worldly dune
#

Chance of that happening is close to none tbf

brittle garnet
#

What do you mean? How can you say that when you have nothing to base it off of?

opaque sigil
coarse leaf
opaque sigil
#

And while a release in December is unlikely a RD announcement is plausible tamershrug

tribal merlin
#

dunnoh about release date but I think they'll say something
"Sorry for the wait but here's the long awaited development news people demand from us every single day:
we're alive and well and we're still making the game"

#

that should shut up the news hungry folk for like 0.271 seconds feelspkman

opaque sigil
#

*0.000

worldly dune
#

0.00000001???

tribal merlin
#

with an error margin of +/- 0.3 seconds feelspkman

opaque sigil
#

Even actual news doesn't shut people up for 0.271 seconds zotewheeze

proud vale
#

It's mainly just the issue that they don't want to disclose how close the game is to completion in their eyes

opaque sigil
#

Which is very reasonable

tribal merlin
#

there may not be an accurate way to gauge closeness to completion

#

unless they indeed are very close

opaque sigil
#

That is also true, pretty much explicitly

tribal merlin
#

with only a defined set of simpler tasks left to do

proud vale
#

Yeah it's pretty much due to the way they develop Silksong (at least in this phase)

#

Which is keep adding stuff until they think it's done then package and ship it out

tribal merlin
#

development in general has phases of whack-a-mole where you can't really say when it's gonna end

coarse leaf
#

yh, if they're just playtesting and optimising atm there wouldn't be much point in giving development news, but thats kinda wishful thinking

opaque sigil
tribal merlin
#

yeah and when there's unintended behavior popping up during testing then you have to add another cycle

#

asking them how close they are is really asking them "do you know all the errors in your software and how long it'll take to fix each of them"

#

to which the answer of course is "no"

sacred stratus
#

hi again

#

sorry for not being nearly as active recently but I'm finally back at full swing

are there any news?

Nah

#

Well, you aren't wrong

#

Pure will

nimble radish
#

oh boy gruzzer milk theory time

burnt topaz
#

Gruzzer milk?

nimble radish
#

-gruzzers are meat animals selectively bred to be dumb as fuck
-they are therefore analogous to cows, and numerous in crossroads
-the liquid in the crossroads barrels is white, but has different physics than mantis blood or water
-like what the fuck is it it's not shown anywhere else in the game
-gruzzer milk
~grover, on the gruzzers

burnt topaz
#

Makes sense

pallid flare
#

thank you

opaque sigil
#

yk sometimes the best move is to just ignore people like this elderC

nimble radish
#

they asked if bugs produce milk feelspkman

trim estuary
#

(It’s soul liquid)

opaque sigil
#

It doesn't behave like liquid Soul

burnt topaz
#

Why would they have huge barrels of soul when it's kinda taboo

opaque sigil
#

And it doesn't glow or anything, nor does TK gain Soul from breaking the barrels

trim estuary
#

Then what is it

burnt topaz
#

Milk

opaque sigil
trim estuary
burnt topaz
#

I can believe that the bugs eat gruzzers but I'm still on the fence with the milk.

nimble radish
#

they definitely eat gruzzers

opaque sigil
#

I mean it's a joke, ofc it isn't established as milk, really

#

But yeah they definitely eat gruzzers, there are a ton in the kitchen

nimble radish
#

milk is just a theory, and honestly it's a fairly solid one

burnt topaz
#

I didn't think anyone thought too much about the barrels

opaque sigil
#

You can see gruzzers hanging from the ceiling

burnt topaz
#

Oh yeah, I remember that

trim estuary
#

Delicious

burnt topaz
#

Wonder what the folks of pharloom eat

worthy lichen
burnt topaz
#

Gruzzer and mushroom stew

nimble radish
opaque sigil
#

There seem to be some feral bugs in Pharloom that would probably work as food

nimble radish
#

fleas

opaque sigil
burnt topaz
#

Fleas are too hairy, don't seem to make good food

#

When you trim them of all the fur I bet they're tinier

Can't believe ||Metroid Dread ripped off midwife||

#

Spiders are known for eating their mates

#

So I mean

worthy lichen
silver oak
#

You're not wrong?

tall hinge
#

i think youre thinking of legeater

pallid flare
#

baby hornte

nimble steppe
#

Tiny spider

silver oak
#

That cloak is a few sizes to big

#

Maybe because the white lady is blind and is also a tree

#

Which would both make knitting difficult

#

So honestly, the fact that she got that far is an accomplishment

lament drum
#

didnt the weavers make her dress

silver oak
#

Oh you're probably right

#

It does look similar to the one we see in-game

#

Nevermind what I said

lament drum
#

yeah, plus she was herrahs daughter

silver oak
#

Yeah but she was canonically raised by the white lady iirc

lament drum
#

also nice pfp, my old one was a moon jelly too

silver oak
#

Maybe that was retconned along with the vespa-hornet connection

nimble radish
#

yeah I'm pretty sure hornet was raised by the weavers

silver oak
lament drum
#

no clue myself, but id imagine the weavers to make more sense

lament drum
silver oak
#

I love the fact that they totally removed any connection Hornet had to the hive and were like "Nope, she's still a bee"

nimble radish
#

white lady does know of hornet, I assume they've seen each other, but white lady is also tied up underground so raising hornet might be kinda tricky for her

#

not easy raising a child when you're rooted to the spot y'know

silver oak
#

Presumably that didn't happen until after the whole dreamer fiasco

#

Which was when hornet was born

#

Also, if this was irl Hornet would have like 1000 gendered siblings

#

Cuz y'know, spiders

#

Although I don't think a worm/spider mating would be possible irl anyway

#

And even if it was who knows what would happen

#

I don't even know if worms reproduce sexually

Elden Ring is delayed by one month

that is very important information

Nice

Cause that month I have a long school break

That's what happens when you declare a date too soon feelspkman

What was the previous date?

Sometime in January I think

signal crag

January 21th, my birthday

#

So this sucks so much

glossy gazelle

wait elden ring got delayed? (I know this isn't silksong but I am curious)

robust pecan
#

it's just 1 month

signal crag
#

Also closed beta

trim estuary
#

Clearly this means silksong will be brought one month closer gorbbrain

glossy gazelle
#

Ah, well that's not that bad (it now comes out my birth month let's fucking go!)

I was thinking it got pushed back like a couple months or so (because I'm used to games doing that)

ror 2 dlc got delayed, elden ring got delayed, silksong would be delayed if it had a release date

From Software next upcoming game

#

Also, just a 1 month delay is barely anything tbh

glossy gazelle

shell yacht
#

1 month delay is like games good but we found one big thing give it a month of testing to be safe

#

didnt they also say itwas badically bc of online things?

#

Fromsoft has never had good servers so to be expected honestly

wahts the eternal ordeal

opaque sigil

when it's ready is gonna be a good day cigzote

tribal merlin
#

it's gonna get delayed from when it's ready to one month after it's ready feelspkman

coarse leaf
#

if silksong is delayed by 1 month from when its ready, that means after 1 month after a delay there would have be another 1 month delay, endlessly delaying silksong 😦

now you get it zote

not really but sure

#

now is not the time for logic, its the time for pain okay

opaque sigil
weary tapir
#

My theory:

#

We get news of silksong on Christmas, the last real team cherry update was the Christmas sign off anyways

#

It’ll be the greatest Christmas present of all

opaque sigil
#

That wasn't the last TC update by any reasonable metric

pallid flare
weary tapir
#

On their page it definitely was

hollow smelt
#

Wait you dont see the new blog post?

opaque sigil
#

There were other updates palehmm

hollow smelt
opaque sigil
#

Where those updates were does not make them not updates

weary tapir
#

12/13/19 holiday sign off

#

First thing you see on their page

opaque sigil
#

And?

weary tapir
#

Last real update

silver oak
#

They have given news that is not on their blog

#

EDGE is arguably the biggest update ever

opaque sigil
#

That's a ridiculous supposition, that only blogposts count as updates

silver oak
#

Aside from the reveal trailer

weary tapir
#

edge just went in to the development of hollow knight yeah?

silver oak
#

Not even a little bit

opaque sigil
silver oak
#

Entirely focused on Silksong

fiery coral
#

Bloodborne was delayed a month too, right?

#

Oh wait sorry

#

It was scrolled up

weary tapir
#

what did it even reveal

fiery coral
#

Apologies

silver oak
silver oak
opaque sigil
# weary tapir what did it even reveal

An awful lot regarding the design philosophies and mechanics of the game, more than I can type without taking an inordinate amount of time, so just read it yourself

weary tapir
#

idk I feel like the most official announcement they can do is a blog announcement

#

Idk why you people find that so crazy

opaque sigil
#

That doesn't invalidate Edge as an update

#

Or the riddles

silver oak
#

About 20 new screenshots, more info on the opening of the game, a whole new area mentioned, enemy AI, level design, movement, a new boss, and more

weary tapir
#

I don’t read magazines so I don’t really know about that-

coarse leaf
tribal merlin
opaque sigil
#

If you didn't read it then you can't really complain about its legitimacy, can you palehmm

weary tapir
#

No but I can understand the philosophy of using your own website for updates like most people would think

silver oak
weary tapir
#

Jesus fucking Christ whatever it’s really not that deep

opaque sigil
#

It's not like TC doesn't use their website, they just don't use it exclusively

weary tapir
#

I hate when people are demeaning of people for not knowing something it literally just makes you look mean

opaque sigil
#

By your logic the demo footage isn't "real" SS news either

tribal merlin
#

thing is if they used their own website for updates it would probably be down regularly zote

#

each time there's an update nobody would be able to read it because too many people are trying to

silver oak
opaque sigil
#

I'm not demeaning your nescience, merely demonstrating the flaws in your logic

fiery coral
#

@silver oak calm down

fiery coral
#

no need for any of that

weary tapir
silver oak
#

Okay
I should probably step out

weary tapir
#

How is that not demeaning

opaque sigil
#

It was sarcastic, not demeaning, but whatever

nimble steppe
#

I have no idea what's going on

fiery coral
#

anyway, please move on from this

weary tapir
#

I don’t even care anymore

fiery coral
#

no point in being pedantic either, the point is made

#

yeah SilkSong.
btw will SS come with its own batteries or will I have to buy those?

weary tapir
#

yeah.

coarse leaf
#

i just really hope theres secret rooms within secret rooms within secret rooms

nimble steppe
#

And the critters! It already seem like we'll have a healthy amount

silver oak
opaque sigil
#

Well, some of the rooms have looked a bit barren but that could just be due to their being as of yet unpopulated to the full extent

agile herald
#

Silksong is coming out in 10 minute s

coarse leaf
#

no 5 minutes

nimble steppe
#

I'm also hoping that there will ge a greater variety of enemies if that makes sense

tribal merlin
coarse leaf
#

how many bosses are there

opaque sigil
#

And it sounds like there's more variety in behavior as well

nimble steppe
#

Like how tiktiks and other simple gooba-like enemies there were

weary tapir
#

pretty sure silksong comes with a rechargeable battery if you pre order it

silver oak
#

It's really not a lot of fuel and I get very good performance

weary tapir
tribal merlin
#

that's a good idea, you can get old army stock diesel generators relatively cheap

coarse leaf
#

will silksong have DLC

opaque sigil
#

No reason to assume it will. Definitely not for the same reasons HK had content updates

coarse leaf
#

aight

silver oak
#

So uh
Possibly but less likely than HK

silver oak
# weary tapir ty

Hey I'm sorry I got mad, Silksong ignorance makes me irrationally angry sometimes and I know it's not really your fault

opaque sigil
#

and purity fallacies are just dumb

tribal merlin
#

they're actually delivering the physical edition with a diesel generator. Here's a testrun of the first 4 games getting shipped.
Nice of their composer to handle the logistics

glossy gazelle

#

think it was 12 dunno

fiery coral
potent plover
opaque sigil
glossy gazelle
#

Sharpe, Lace, Moss Mother, Carmelita, Trobbio, The Coral Guy, Citadel Knight, the Robot thing, Bell Beast, Seth so actually 10 I am dumb

opaque sigil
#

Lace is 2 and there's also Last Judge

glossy gazelle
#

I'm not counting the same boss twice

opaque sigil
#

That makes 12

fiery coral
#

I assume they mean distinct bosses

opaque sigil
#

Lace isn't the same boss twice, she's two separate bosses

glossy gazelle
#

So 11

opaque sigil
#

Like how Hornet Sentinel and Hornet Protector are different bosses

fiery coral
opaque sigil
#

And either way you omitted the bell beast so it's still 12/13

potent plover
#

I kinda wish they didn't show us this amount of enemies and bosses, but the community requires content I guess.

#

The quest system already looks way less messy than the one in Ori 2

tribal merlin
#

I think they care more about how much reach a rd announcement can get with minimal money invested vs how many other games release nearby

still elm
#

I didn’t like how the quests in that were like 15-part goose chases for a mediocre reward

#

It didn’t help that most of the Npcs involved were the Moki who all look the same

potent plover
#

Yeah, Not saying ori 2 is bad, But Silksongs quest system looks pretty good.

#

I think I will like the idea of just picking up a quest and letting it lead me to whatever awaits

silver oak
#

Ori 2's best moments were in the start for me, up until the wellspring

#

after you begin the main quest it starts to lose track of it self imo

potent plover
tribal merlin
#

nah, I don't think you have to explicitly accept a quest to start it

#

eg if you find "Drongo's car keys" it'll automatically add the "find Drongo" quest

Yeah

I hope silksong has loads more of backtracking i legit enjoy that.

TC are making SS in an underground bunker so they don't have to listen to all the nagging about news feelspkman

chrome wave
#

In The EDGE interview or something team cherry like said that uhhh silksong will be inspired by castlevania lords of Shadow and like that videogame is pretty linear

pallid flare
#

inspired

tribal merlin
#

inspired != the same

opaque sigil
#

Only in that the perceived goal wasn't really the end of the game, ie there's more to do after reaching the citadel

viral pivot
#

i imagine there will probs be a similar amount of backtracking as there was in hk

chrome wave
opaque sigil
#

Well, I do think there's such a thing as too much, but generally yeah

tribal merlin
#

like when you go out of your house and realize you forgot the keys so you have to go to the hardware store and buy a hammer feelspkman

chrome wave
#

And there simply aint enough of that in hk

viral pivot
#

i was really happy when i decided to go back to the start of the game cause i had claw and itd just be cool and hey new howling cliffs

chrome wave
#

I liked when i finally got to see that there was an infected mini arena with a charm in the crossroads after i got the crystal dash

opaque sigil
#

HK's weird in that depending on how you look at it it's like 100% or 0% backtracking, since there's not a well defined path in the first place so most "forward" progression just consists of going back and looking around tamershrug

silver oak
#

That’s kinda the metroidvania style

#

But to be fair HK does do it more than most games in the genre

#

Especially after mantis claw

HK does it way more

It was deconfirmed by nvidia

trim estuary
#

Probably just a date they hoped to have it out by

opaque sigil
#

It's a huge assumption to posit that TC had anything to do with that date

analog lily
#

The leak was probably just Nvidia's guess on SS's release, not TCs

coarse leaf
trim estuary
#

Nvidia can legally do that?

opaque sigil
#

nvidia can put whatever the hell they want in their databases

trim estuary
#

Hmmmmm

Interesting

opaque sigil

It's an internal testing database

why wouldn't that legal

it's as legal as me claiming that silksong will release on the tenth of october 2023

It's about as legal as you thinking that

It might be legal, but that doesn't mean the TC ninjas aren't going to get you

Also damn if you realise how big Hornet is in comparison to the Knight, that little hallway she's in must be BIG

I wonder what the lore reason behind the many many many bones is for that area elderC

Maybe pharloom bugs just toss their dead down there or smth

Perhaps the pilgrammage used to be alot more travelled than it is now, and those are the corpses of many many pilgrims

Where do you think bones come from shermaU

That corpse is from Shakra I presume

I'm not sure if we'll get as creepy as an area as deepnest but I think Greymoor is meant to come close?

Speaking of outer wilds, I just recieved an outer wilds jumper in the mail

i have to say, if i had the money, its not a question if i would buy it or not, its a fact

It's definitely worth buying but it'll be a different experience for sure if you've already seen someone play it

for each few fleas you save, a new instrument gets added

so at least 1 instrument

gleaming perch

and theyll be a forgettable 2000s era rock band that have horribly cheesy lines like

"For the sake of the siblings, I am willing to fight"
"Saviour of a dying kingdom's plight"
"I am the Pale Phantom of Pharloom, SHAW. ADINO. HEGALEEEEE" heavy rock music

no offense to Bury the Light

I was just looking at the gods and Nightmares DLC songs on youtube and guess which one had the most views

cerulean sable

i mean who else

#

Grimm is overrated anyway

analog lily
#

I though hornet's theme but apparently SoB theme has 750,000 views, how many people put that thing on repeat?

cerulean sable
#

i mean its easy if you throw enough cool sounding english words

cerulean sable
#

i think the Godmaster themes are inferior to the original tracks imo

proud vale
#

I'm still pissed we didn't get cornifer in godhome

analog lily
#

yeah, well most of them anyway, I can't say gods and glory is better than the radiance theme

cerulean sable

sure theyre more bombastic but like, it made me appreciate the originals' simplicity

seem like not silksong discussion lmao

cerulean sable
limpid imp
#

can I make a controversial statement

cerulean sable
#

its too artificial

analog lily
limpid imp
#

hollow knight has amazing area themes but 🤷‍♀️ boss themes

cerulean sable
#

i mean youre not wrong

limpid imp
#

they work for the game really well but they aren't as jammable as other games

worldly dune
#

i wonder if silksong could change that

analog lily
analog lily
limpid imp
#

celeste has better boss music than hk and it doesn't really have bosses
toby fox could also be a thing but you can really beat toby esp in boss category

analog lily
#

also PV theme has a million views so i guess that's the most popular one?

cerulean sable
#

meh i barely listen to the boss ost outside of Grimm and a bare few

#

theyre mostly thematic tbh

limpid imp
#

again they work well for the game they aren't bad but they aren't exactly like
mmmm jamming

cerulean sable
#

but in honestly you cant really fit understyle type catchy music to HK's theme anyway

chilly nexus
#

the only boss theme i can really remember is mantis lords/sisters of battle

analog lily
#

Well i'm not sure about you but I remember almost all the boss themes, despite them being good or bad

limpid imp
#

let me put it this way
hk boss music is "tense" but its barely ever "intense"

limpid imp
#

lemme relisten

chilly nexus
analog lily
#

and also radiance theme i guess

cerulean sable
#

Rad theme is meh

chilly nexus
#

very dramatic and building

worldly dune
#

they dont feel intense to me

limpid imp
#

kinda the same way dark souls music feels

chilly nexus
#

jk no eyes has the most intense theme. nothing is more intense than eerily whispering "soooo coooold toniiiiight" bote

analog lily
limpid imp
#

it works good for the game but it doesn't have that "holy shit" factor

crisp drift
#

ah yes very "intense"

#

gibberish sound of a deceased lady who died ripping out her and her children's eyes

limpid imp
#

like when you fight asgore in undertale and the heartache theme starts ur like flushed2

#

its got that shimmer than hk doesn't have

chilly nexus
#

i bet u birdbox was inspired by hollowknight. jk not really

analog lily
crisp drift
#

i don't remember heartache playing in asgore bossfight

limpid imp
analog lily
crisp drift
#

yeah

#

all kickstarter character's backstory are changed to fit the lore more

analog lily
#

really? Where does it say that or where did TC say that?

crisp drift
#

just go read No Eyes' lore

#

dialogue, i mean

analog lily
mental swallowBOT
cerulean sable
#

Hornet tho is unironically the strongest boss music in the game

coarse leaf
#

PV is my favorite boss music

limpid imp
#

so she did it

crisp drift
#

i like THK's theme a lot

coarse leaf
#

THK and PV are the best bosses and have best themes

limpid imp
#

ya know what I just realized which is probably part of the reason

crisp drift
#

the ambient sound of BET, then the build up until THK scream, before slapping your face with the theme
ends of with a sad note because lore

limpid imp
#

hk music doesn't really use drums

worldly dune
#

BET?

crisp drift
#

Black Egg Temple

analog lily
#

Black egg temple uses drums?

crisp drift
#

no?

limpid imp
#

im responding to myself

analog lily
#

hmm, ok i looked at HK wiki for no eyes and it says the lore was changed, but into what i am not sure

limpid imp
#

I think partly why the boss music feels less "intense" than other games is the lack of drums in the style larkin used

#

same for dark souls I think

analog lily
fiery coral
#

Soulsborne boss music seerpray

crisp drift
#

i like the absence of drum

analog lily
limpid imp
#

I hear none

crisp drift
#

yeah me neither

limpid imp
#

anyway its the style so it makes sense

#

the area music tho HeartPichu

cerulean sable
#

at the end its stylistic personally and i dont think a lot of the OST wouldve benefitted from a drum being added

#

im actually happy SS' 1st boss music sample is purely out of strings

limpid imp
#

I mean I agree but same with dark souls music it makes it less jammable
like Ill put on the area music forever but once I hear nkg's horns for the whatever time im like alright skippyy

worldly dune
#

or just mute hk sounds and turn on youtube

cerulean sable
#

also i like Larkins interview for making the music in Tohu

#

he knows how to add musical elements to help with the atmosphere

#

like at one area in that game, is basically set in a swamp, so he used these bubbly sounds to make area feel like you could hear and feel being in a the swamp

#

it might not be as "jammable" as it is in boss fights, but thats why he really makes the environmental music standout

hearty tendon
#

Environmental music is just ambient sound with extra step

I just want ss to release so I can have some minute level of joy in my life for however long it takes to beat it
