[gilded adder]

Y'all see the new Elden Ring gameplay presentation?

[pallid flare]

I watched it for a few seconds, yes

[fiery coral]

Yes

[gilded adder]

Looks awesome

[fiery coral]

It was quite good I thought

[gilded adder]

Alexander is my new best friend

[fiery coral]

I honestly thought there'd be a man underneath the giant pot

Didn't expect Alexander to be...you know

[gilded adder]

And the game has actual stealth mechanics this time.

And the sheer vastness of the world and the fact that there's even dungeons within it is incredible.

Watch the presentation. They showcase it.

Demon’s souls 2

[minor gale]

Well ok but i do wonder if ss Will be more comedic than hk

[jovial sand]

We have massive moss charger in hk, how could they make a better joke than that

[hollow smelt]

half life 3

[minor gale]

Make a boss that kills IT selfe

[jovial sand]

We already have thk

Who too is a joke

[minor gale]

You need to make him commit suicid

[jovial sand]

THK reaaaaally tries to

It should count

[minor gale]

Yo zote is cool i wonder if je has brothers that Will pop upe in her journy

[vale galleon]

no zote transcends reasoning they will be in pharloom

[potent plover]

I assume Sherma and Trobbio will be the comic relief characters of silksong

[opaque sigil]

While both seem humorous I imagine there will be plenty of other comedic bits, like FD laughing if you hit Ballow or presumably a running gag about Zaza being smarter than Garmond

[spice wigeon]

Dark souls II 3

[silver oak]

Darks souls is the dark souls of Hollow Knight

[potent plover]

can't wait for hollow knight silksong 2

[normal token]

so true non-bestie

[potent plover]

I have a feeling hollow knight silksong will be like what hollow knight silksong is to hollow knight

[normal token]

I have a feeling silksong will

[cunning geode]

🎵More than a feeling🎵

[opaque sigil]

Were you like trying to set up a parallel or something

"I have a feeling x will be like what x is to y" is technically grammatically sensible ig but it's just wonky

What feeling

[normal token]

Same here, the feeling is too strong

[opaque sigil]

[normal token]

It's just something your tiny lore whore brain cannot handle

[chilly nexus]

the pre-order trailer ends with a song that sounds so close to the silksong reveal trailer song

for elden ring

[serene chasm]

TC should sue!

[chilly nexus]

fr though have you heard it? :p i was like "ER is really giving SS vibes here"

[serene chasm]

I just listened to it. I guess it kinda does

[chilly nexus]

https://youtu.be/D1mDo1CEMuE?t=47 ye

[ornate beacon]

I've been playing metroid dread recently.
Can't believe nintendo copied from hollow knight smh my head.

[opaque sigil]

I mean it's kinda just string music isn't it

[chilly nexus]

https://youtu.be/yQxwbZsL14Y?t=3

string music doesn't have to sound that similar

that's like saying all flute solo's are similar or smthn

[opaque sigil]

eh ok now I hear it

[chilly nexus]

or all piano songs are the same

[serene chasm]

I hear it now too

[chilly nexus]

(omg you can play for elise? I can play we wish you a marry christmas, we should do a canon, no one can tell the dif)

[opaque sigil]

It's significantly slower though and aside from a few moments the melodies are different

[chilly nexus]

ye they're different, but similar enough to say are similar

[tawdry valley]

Which bad joke is it gonna be. Silk souls or elden song?

[serene chasm]

TC/Fromsoft collab project when?

[chilly nexus]

imo the SS one is better

but yeah i was a little shooketh by ER's choice of music

[warm bone]

I’m going to buy elden ring day one and I never buy games day one

[opaque sigil]

SS?

[warm bone]

Naw I’ll wait for that one to go on sale

[opaque sigil]

Heretic. Blasphemer. Miscreant

[serene chasm]

Im gonna wait a few days to see if there are any glaring issues, but I think I might get it soon after release as well. And Im not even a huge Souls/Fromsoft fan

[cedar hedge]

the bloons people are waiting for btdb2, the ror2 people are waiting for the dlc to come out and the silksong people are like "WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR 3 YEARS, QUIT YOUR BITCHING"

[opaque sigil]

3 years isn't that long in the first place SS fans should quit bitching too

[normal token]

You guys still waiting for silksong? I already pirated it

[cunning geode]

[dusty nimbus]

Pls send help

The voices are talking to me again

[stark estuary]

I disagree. In my opinion, Tammo is a big meanie.

[dusty nimbus]

The voices are telling me to poyo you off a 50 story building

[opaque sigil]

The voices are based af

[stark estuary]

I stopped listening to the voices a long time ago, and if you think falling from a 50 storey building will be enough to get rid of me, then I suggest you think again.

[dusty nimbus]

Ty they left me alone for now

[tribal merlin]

if Tammo runs out of ammo he'll just be T

[dusty nimbus]

It's funny how you think I put even the effort to think what I'm writing

[stark estuary]

More like shuT up

[stark estuary]

Why would I think that

[tawdry valley]

If the voices aren’t real, why do they have such good ideas?

[stark estuary]

Because everything which is good is in fact, not real.

[tawdry valley]

Then just go to sleep at 9:30 as an intermediate for your biological clock or smth

[tribal merlin]

don't let the clock tell you what time it is, you tell the clock what time it is

[normal token]

I'll repeatdly tell myself it's 10pm and sleep forever

Drink some water so you don't die. Dehydration can be serious.

no thirst is unrelated to current dying status

Kirbmas is Kirbmas

Don't ask unnecessary questions

[golden walrus]

Did anyone else notice the status of Silksong's release date changed from TBD to TBA?

[burnt topaz]

finally, it will no longer be determined but announced

[warm bone]

it's always been that way

[opaque sigil]

mandela effect go brrr

[warm bone]

and the monopoly man does not wear a monocle

[fleet temple]

Ok so, I went on the steam page recently and this might be a crazy theory but based on what I've seen I think that silksong has not been released yet

[languid linden]

Wait what he actually doesn't

[golden walrus]

That was a year ago

It changed

[warm bone]

I don't see how that proves anything

[fleet temple]

Ah yes undeniable proof

[warm bone]

maybe if you could get an actual steam screenshot, that would prove it

but a 1 year old reddit comment is not going to do that for anyone

[fleet temple]

Especially since the A and D keys are close together

[shell cedar]

and it means the same thing to most people

[opaque sigil]

It means the same thing, period

TBA and TBD are functionally interchangeable

[olive bobcat]

My Halloween costume was the Monopoly Man

[fleet temple]

Even if it was true it being changed doesn't mean anything

[opaque sigil]

I mean it'd be a funny prank

[warm bone]

but the 1 year old reddit comment with no upvotes told me so 🙁

[stark estuary]

No it means they've decided the release date but still haven't announced it

[fleet temple]

Wdym? Are you saying someone with an among us pfp isn't correct?

[stark estuary]

That's certainly sus

[copper knot]

what does tbd mean

[golden walrus]

Sorry I'm not trying to be rude or like "WhErEs SiLkSoNg?!" But I'm genuinely curious

[warm bone]

to be determined

[copper knot]

ok

[opaque sigil]

It's always been TBA

[golden walrus]

Also steam does have a TBD status

[warm bone]

yes we know that

[fleet temple]

It's still being developed

[warm bone]

it also has custom statuses

[golden walrus]

Hm didn't know that

[golden walrus]

That's kinda cool

[coarse leaf]

bit late, but its been tba on web archive the whole time

[copper knot]

release date: TBD NOW SHUT THE FUCK UP

[golden walrus]

Hm maybe my mind is messing with me lol thanks for the discussion

[young estuary]

to be honest, even seeing "relases in 2035" is better then that god damn TBD

[stark estuary]

ignorance is bliss

[opaque sigil]

[serene chasm]

Yes. The release date on steam should just be elderc

[opaque sigil]

lifeblood beast fight in SS confirmed???????????????????????????????????

[olive bobcat]

Curses! Foiled again!

[opaque sigil]

smh just go on your main acct

[stark estuary]

LBB is in SS

I saw it in the trailer

[languid linden]

Piss cow is also in SS

[stark estuary]

True

[opaque sigil]

I hope they don't cut Grunby from the trailer if only because Grunby is an objectively good name

Grunby of Bonebottom

The guy with the family curse who may have a quest chain or smth

Imagine he finds himself in trouble all the time and so every now and then a new notice from him pops up on the quest board asking for help

[serene chasm]

get your shit together grunby

[opaque sigil]

Poor Grunby just has a curse on him go easy

best boi grunby did nothing wrong

[serene chasm]

Everyone is cursed. Lazy S.O.B

[coarse leaf]

hi grunby gamers

[stark estuary]

Haha bonebottom

[opaque sigil]

[cerulean sable]

honestly curious how therye gonna name quests

[tribal merlin]

quest 1
quest 2
...

[cerulean sable]

other games either has generic shit like "Gathering Steel" or "The Falsified Reports" or theyre based on puns

hope Silksong names them like "Bonebottom is Fucked" or "Sherma is in Fucking Trouble Yet Again VIII"

[opaque sigil]

Seems like a decently diverse approach to naming

[cerulean sable]

yeah\

looks like sometimes its straightforward (Plumed Rhino and Mossberry Brew) or its a fancier name

[gilded adder]

There's going to be a bunch of quests that aren't named too since they'll be more organic and occur naturally in the world outside of quest boards like in the original game so at least we can name those ourselves.

[cerulean sable]

when i played through "varQuestName_String_6" i felt that 😢

[opaque sigil]

Yes because the community chose the term "flower quest" with such profound creativity

[cerulean sable]

better than "backtrack on 9 different points to collect fire: the quest" 😎

[gilded adder]

Speak for yourself, I don't subscribe to that name.

[coarse lily]

hey. Convince me to play Death's Gambit. Why should I? I tried to get into it one time, but didn't really grab me. I wanna give it another try, tho

[opaque sigil]

got update

[coarse lily]

I tried a long time ago

[gilded adder]

It got a huge update last month that fixed a bunch of issues from gathering player feedback over the past 3 years and added a bunch of new content. It's practically a whole new game now with the same core as before.

[opaque sigil]

Also tastes change and all that

[gilded adder]

That too.

But aside from that, it's just a very polished game now with amazing art, music, voice acting, exploration, gameplay and story. I'm close to finishing it and it's done nothing but impress me.

[coarse lily]

Interesting. That's really exciting to know, I'll try it again

it's a metroidvania, right?

[gilded adder]

It is now, fortunately. It's a 2D Souls-like Metroidvania.

[opaque sigil]

Kinda, leans a bit more into soulslike combat than HK did

[gilded adder]

I say it is now because it wasn't really before

[opaque sigil]

As in it actually resembles DS a bit

Whereas HK didn't. At all.

[gilded adder]

The devs added a bunch of metroidvania upgrades and revamped the map to be a lot more like a Metroidvania

[coarse lily]

Interesting. Metroidvania is my favourite genre, so this is good news

[opaque sigil]

It seems like the progression overall is more soulslike than metroidvania tho

[gilded adder]

It's a mix of both. You level up and spec your stats like in Dark Souls but you also explore the map and backtrack to previous areas with new abilities like in Metroidvanias. Plus, the abilities help you in combat as well.

[opaque sigil]

Yeah I just haven't seen as many new abilities as I have invested thought and resources into levelling up and getting better equipment, at least in the first hour or whatever

But apples to oranges and all that

[gilded adder]

Oh, you started playing Afterlife then I take it?

[coarse lily]

cool to know my friends. thanks! I'll definetely try it again

[gilded adder]

Do note that the new update is only on Switch and PC, not yet on Playstation consoles.

If you play on PS that is

Pog, Tammo.

[coarse lily]

I have it on Steam, so that's good

is there a disccord server for metroidvanias?

[gilded adder]

The second boss should give you a new ability that you can use in the world and in combat, if you got to it yet that is.

[opaque sigil]

owlking?

[gilded adder]

Yea

[opaque sigil]

Yeah he was ez

[gilded adder]

Fight him on Heroic then

[opaque sigil]

I got the air dash but tbh like that's kinda not a huge thing

Didn't completely change how I move around the world, just a bit faster now

[gilded adder]

It's akin to HK's dash, I'd say.

[opaque sigil]

ig but you already have the dodge on the ground

[gilded adder]

It mainly unlocks move places to go to, yea, but future upgrades are more useful.

[opaque sigil]

I can already tell there's gonna be a down slam thing and some sort of morph-ball-esque(?) thing

Something to slip through spaces

[radiant lichen]

Hollow Knight: Silksong – Team Cherry (01/02/2022)

[gilded adder]

I do like the horse travel, sidenote. It's very ambient and atmospheric to ride on your horse across the map and I love the fact that the map has a specific stretch of it designed for quick travel from area to area with your horse and you unlock more of it as you progress through the game.

Also, how far are you exactly?

[radiant lichen]

cannot wait

[trim estuary]

To pop?

[opaque sigil]

Not very, like I did owlking then went all the way right and did everything I could there then went back left and opened up a path back to the horse tunnel now I've gotta go up and left

[gilded adder]

I see

[opaque sigil]

idk how to describe locations in an unfamiliar game

[gilded adder]

Yea, they are named on your map once you get to them.

[opaque sigil]

Yeah but I'm not looking at it

[tawdry valley]

Relative to landmarks

[opaque sigil]

There are like two landmarks I can think of off the top of my head, owlking and the sanctuary

[gilded adder]

Also, fun fact, there was a mini-ARG in Afterlife that players had to decode and led to a secret area and boss. I have no clue what it is or how to get to it but I just find it very interesting and cool.

[opaque sigil]

Although I should probably go back to the starting area since there's some stuff I can get with the air dash but like forward is good too

[gilded adder]

Also, the voice acting .

Death's voice in particular is so good. And his lines are great. The writing in general is very witty when it wants to be and well written too, can't wait for you to see more of it.

[opaque sigil]

ye

Although thus far the difficulty has been a tad low but maybe mage is just overpowered

Like both ione and owlking I beat first try, barely taking any damage

[gilded adder]

The early game is a bit easy, yea, but it's not too bad of a thing. I played Blood Knight and switched to a Greatsword but it definitely gets a lot harder as you go on.

And the heroic bosses will give you a challenge too

[opaque sigil]

I have a spell blade and a tome and tbh idk what I would need anything else for

[gilded adder]

W1 is Tome and W2 is Spellblade or the other way around?

[opaque sigil]

Other way around

But idk how much it matters really

[gilded adder]

The other weapons and abilities are mainly for different playstyles and different players who want.

[opaque sigil]

I can use the orbs with the tome as w2

[gilded adder]

Also, the item in W1 gets a combo attack I believe

And W2 is just a single attack

[opaque sigil]

Tome seems to combo in W2 as it did in W1

[gilded adder]

And if you only have one weapon equipped the W2 attack gives you a new attack

[opaque sigil]

Yeah I do know about that but spellblade does more damage and tome lets me use orbs so I want both

[gilded adder]

Yea, I was just saying.

If you want the extra challenge, you could face the heroic bosses now before the recommended level. They give you talent points and really good items.

[opaque sigil]

Yeah ig I probably would have a decent shot at 'em, especially since I'm probably like lvl 15-20

idr exactly

[gilded adder]

Ione and Owlking are level 30 heroic bosses so that should be a good point to fight them at for you.

[opaque sigil]

Maybe. I might come back later anyways though just 'cause I kinda want to keep going forwards a bit more

Or owlking's not far

[gilded adder]

Yea, up to you, really. That's the joy of a Metroidvania after all.

Player freedom

[opaque sigil]

Do I need to worry about the Will stat increasing

[silver oak]

Video games?

[gilded adder]

I have no idea what that is for yet lol

Hasn't come up for me

[opaque sigil]

huh. Well that's not super reassuring

[gilded adder]

I haven't finished the game, mind.

[opaque sigil]

it seems bad

[silver oak]

Cool

[gilded adder]

I think it increases with each death? Not sure.

[opaque sigil]

It does

And there's a little blurb that indicates that it's Death's control over you or smth idr the exact wording

[gilded adder]

I have a theory then as to what it might reference but that goes into some spoilers, I think.

Might have to do with the extra new endings.

[opaque sigil]

Like "Death's will over you increases with each death"

[gilded adder]

Also, the main menu theme is so good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjI9zcWILB8&ab_channel=JoeDoe

After I finish the game, I might look up some stuff that was unclear by that time and/or the secret endings and secret area/boss and I'll inform you when you beat the game too.

[opaque sigil]

Is it bad that I'm already thinking about my next playthrough
Probably gonna use a polearm bc polearms are cool

[gilded adder]

I would say that's a great thing. Means you want to play again and there's replayability and that the different weapons and builds adding variety is working as intended.

Did you try out all the classes and weapons before picking? That's a new feature they added in Afterlife.

[opaque sigil]

I didn't I just kinda went for it

[gilded adder]

Ah, ok.

Just wondering.

[opaque sigil]

Usually not my style but hey, sometimes impulsivity is fine

Plus I don't regret it, I like mage

[gilded adder]

Yea

[opaque sigil]

Polearms are just badass

And so when I saw polearm abilities in the shop I was like "hell yeah imma do that"

[gilded adder]

I might do another playthrough as a mage too. I like the idea of wielding a magic sword and tome.

[silver oak]

Tammo and Jonny hijack an entire chat, 2021 colorized

[gilded adder]

What are the abilities like for a mage btw?

[opaque sigil]

Like orb conjuration, where different combinations of one/two orbs triggers a different effect when you use the tome

[gilded adder]

Death's Gambit just that good. You love to see it.

[silver oak]

I kinda wanna see how long this goes on for though

[opaque sigil]

Like one fire is a fireball, two fire is a large explosion centered around yourself

[gilded adder]

Oh, that sounds awesome. Lots of variety within the class there.

Iiirc one of the bosses drops a really good Spellblade and Tome that have very unique effects.

[opaque sigil]

There are at least three orb types which is like 12 (?) abilities from their combinations

Wait no 9

[gilded adder]

Also, you probably haven't encountered these yet since I gather you haven't died much but if you die a certain amount of times Death mocks you and it's really funny. He has a bunch of unique lines for it too.

[opaque sigil]

I've only died once

[gilded adder]

Oof

[opaque sigil]

Mage has pretty good survivability your ranged attack is pretty solid

[gilded adder]

I will say this though. Death is kind of important in the game. That's all I'll say to avoid spoilers.

[opaque sigil]

Plus between parry, guard, slide, and roll you can avoid getting hit pretty easily ngl

like when I take damage it's usually bc I fumbled something, not because the attack was super hard to avoid

But that will presumably change

[gilded adder]

Yea, it will. At least it did for me but I'll be the first to say that I'm not very good and was very rusty since for the past few months I've just been playing turn based strategy games so my reaction time was rusty going into DG.

[opaque sigil]

Yeah mine too, tbh I'm kinda surprised at how quickly it returned

Well ig I've been playing Skul so maybe that makes sense

I am looking forwards to things picking up, the enemies thus far (aside from one particularly heavy hitting gold-armoured knight that I think I wasn't supposed to be able to kill yet) have been pretty unremarkable

[gilded adder]

Oh yea, the one with wings?

[opaque sigil]

idr if it had wings but it had a big sword

[gilded adder]

Oh, you probably didn't get to that phase yet my bad.

[opaque sigil]

It didn't have phases it just died

But it didn't respawn so I assume it was something remarkable

Or maybe it had phases and I just didn't notice. My memory isn't great

[gilded adder]

Yea, some enemies don't spawn back and are one time kills those are usually harder ones

Also, the enemies do ramp up a lot.

[opaque sigil]

It was this

[gilded adder]

Oh yea, he has a phase where he jumps up in the air and has wings

[opaque sigil]

Yeah I do think I remember that now

But even that enemy wasn't that hard once you know what it does

[gilded adder]

Ain't that all enemies in all games

[opaque sigil]

Well yeah but sometimes dodging the attacks is a bit more complex

[gilded adder]

True

[opaque sigil]

Here it was just iframe dodge timing, which is fine just not hard

Or at least not hard in a capacity that stays that way once you learn the timing

Plus it seemed like I wasn't supposed to be able to fight it which makes it a bit weird that it was so doable

[gilded adder]

Also, I'm very excited for you to get to one area in particular. It flips a lot of conventions in these types of games on their head. I think it's my favorite area in the game so far.

[opaque sigil]

I love areas like that

[gilded adder]

The lore of that area is so good.

Mainly talking about the lore and worldbuilding when saying it flips conventions

Thought the gameplay and mechanics of it are really cool too

[opaque sigil]

Still

An interesting and novel environment is almost as good as novel gameplay

[gilded adder]

True

And the way it's built up and foreshadowed through a particular boss is so good.

[silver oak]

That's why CoT is so great

[opaque sigil]

It does seem like it might do a tech/magic sorta blend

With the soul_visualization.exe bit at the beginning

That sort of thing is good if executed well

[silver oak]

Gameplay is more or less the same from the rest of HK but the atmosphere and lore just brings it above everything else

[gilded adder]

I really like that intro. It caught me off guard since I don't think it was in the original and I just remembered a fantasy setting so I was not expecting it.

[opaque sigil]

Yeah, same

Anyways, I gotta go to sleep, g'night

[gilded adder]

Good night. Do keep me up to date with your DG journey.

[opaque sigil]

Will do

[gilded adder]

Awesome

[rapid moss]

did they ever say if tc was crunching?

im realizing that ive been comparing ss's development to other games, but other games dev's work sweatshop hours and i dont want that for tc

[cerulean sable]

they had to take a break at around April apparently

[rapid moss]

breaks are good 🙂

[warm bone]

the game studios that do that are usually AAA, with massive teams and higher ups which make the orders for them to crunch

[potent plover]

I've heard from a mossbag video that TC had some crunch months

[warm bone]

yeah I think they have

[potent plover]

I really hope my garbage pc doesn't have trouble loading silksong

[orchid river]

That moment when you wake up and remember that Silksong still isn’t out

[proud vale]

If the switch can run it, I’m sure most PC’s will have no trouble

[odd cliff]

Wait, do you know the release date of SS?

[austere marten]

suppose to be Febuary

[gilded adder]

No release date has been confirmed yet.

[cerulean sable]

"supposedly"

[gilded adder]

[cerulean sable]

honestly unless TC themselves say it, i dont believe any of these leaks

that being said

[modest night]

you guys are playing deaths gambit?

[cerulean sable]

2022 RELEASE DATE 2022 RELEASE DATE 2022 RELEASE DATE 2022 RELEASE DATE 2022 RELEASE DATE

[gilded adder]

I have been for the past week, yea.

[cerulean sable]

i do not play meths gambit

[gilded adder]

Almost done with the game, I think.

[modest night]

you play silksong ttacco we know

[charred pulsar]

Someone with a coloured role said it, now it's real, panic people!

[cerulean sable]

u

im right

its definitely coming out at 2022 imo

[gilded adder]

How far are you in the game now?

[cerulean sable]

no wait IMO implies its an opinion

IMF

[modest night]

im at the galaxy looking guy

🥴

[gilded adder]

Amulvaro

[modest night]

if that makes sense

ye

[gilded adder]

I love that boss, took me some tries to get him down but he was very satisfying.

What class/weapon did you pick and are using currently?

[modest night]

acolyte of death but my main weapon is ione's spear

and my second is the king's scythe

[gilded adder]

I picked Blood Knight but I'm using a combination of a greatsword and the cauterizing saber since one of the greatsword abilities inflicts bleed and the saber consumes bleed and explodes the enemy.

Also, you got to Garde Tum, yea?

[modest night]

yeah

that was very cool

the boss was eh tho

[gilded adder]

That's probably my favorite area in the game. I love how the ancient civilization in the game is actually high-tech.

[modest night]

the eldritch council gave me tree of men ptsd

[gilded adder]

I think Bisurge is alright. I liked how the fight was split into the elevator and normal fight. You can alter your polarity and deal lots of damage if you've the opposite polarity of what he is currently in the fight.

[modest night]

yeah i did that, he wasn't hard just whatever compared to other bosses

[gilded adder]

Also, the scene after you defeat the Eldritch Council is so good. I love the conversation between Death and Sorun.

[modest night]

yeah

eldritch council was a bad boss tho tbh

grey wanderer is a fun boss that uses bullets

[gilded adder]

Yea, it wasn't too hard but definitely not as good as some of the other ones like Ione, Amulvaro and Origa.

[modest night]

also

i can't believe any second that origa isn't inspired from the burst

[gilded adder]

I liked Grey Wanderer too.

[modest night]

in furi

[gilded adder]

I have not played Furi so I wouldn't know.

[modest night]

same moveset same big gun same invisible during the last phase same drones

[tawdry valley]

Reading all this like “this sounds like dark souls” and then hearing mention of bullets -”ah this is bloodborne”

[modest night]

very sus

[gilded adder]

Also, Origa's theme is so amazing.

[tawdry valley]

Is this bloodborne?

[gilded adder]

Moonlight Sniper

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6wvnjBYDkw

In general the writing and voice acting in DG is phenomenal. I was surprised at how good it was and I haven't even beaten it yet. The lore and world building is top notch.

[modest night]

oh yeah i really like the voice acting

[cunning geode]

voice acting, aye?

[gilded adder]

They got a bunch of big names to voice the characters like Mathew Mercer voices Death and some other characters.

[gilded adder]

You have 2/3 of the sigils needed to open the gate to Caer Siori, right? Or did you only beat the council and not Amulvaro yet?

[modest night]

I havent bet amulvaro yet

[gilded adder]

Oh, ok.

Have you died some number of times? Asking because some things happen when you die a certain amount.

Like certain cutscenes and Death mocking you with unique voice lines.

[modest night]

In this fight or in general?

[gilded adder]

In general.

[modest night]

Yeah

[gilded adder]

Amulvaro has one too, actually.

[modest night]

Those are cool

[gilded adder]

Yea, I really like them.

Also, fun fact, but the game has a mini-ARG that players had to decipher when Afterlife released that led to a secret area and boss fight that I know nothing about but will probably research once I beat the game. There are also multiple endings too.

I also really like the horse travel and how they made a specific stretch of the map so you could travel from area to area quickly on your horse that you unlock more of as you progress.

[coarse leaf]

I’m gonna do Silksong blind.

[chilly nexus]

omg i got into mod chat

did you guys hear the similarities between the ER preorder trailer ending and the silksong trailer intro?

[cerulean sable]

mod chat is literally just arknights discussion at this point

[proud vale]

You tryna start a death gambit revolution here Jonny?

After all my work cultivating an outer wilds uprising?

[primal fractal]

taaammmmmmmooooooooo

[coarse leaf]

outer wilds sounds like a bad indie game

wont even bother looking into it

[primal fractal]

[cerulean sable]

i dislike OW for multiple reasons but here are the main ones:

1. I havent played it yet
2. Lack of weapon variety
3. Would've benefit greatly it smoothed out the gunplay, because compared to other FPS it just doesnt have good gunplay

[serene chasm]

Urge to kill rising

[charred pulsar]

Urge to kill, fading

Rising!

Fading

[normal token]

Just killed ttacco

[potent plover]

I played outer wilds but couldn't get past the tutorial because I suck at video games My crappy computer lagged too much

[serene chasm]

That sucks

[potent plover]

so had to refund

sounds like a great game though

but idk doesn't have menderbug

[coarse leaf]

outer wilds 3/10 no toilet ramen

[iron spear]

What is this #staff-casual

Oh wait that wasn't meant to do the blue text

[chilly nexus]

it's a party now that you're here :animated_nitro_emote_i_don't_have:

[normal token]

Nice blue text I can not access

[coarse leaf]

hehe now I can use the staff casual channel haha i definitely can

[cerulean sable]

its literally just arknights discussion

[iron spear]

He's not wrong

[haughty ingot]

you're good graig

[ocean mulch]

Hi

[heady iron]

how is #nitro-boosters, is it safe? is it alright? still filled with :wkroll:?

[ocean mulch]

[chilly nexus]

Graig, as the community leader, I ask you, where are we off to next?

[cerulean sable]

wkroll has been replaced by :vesselvibe:

[nimble radish]

SAD

[cerulean sable]

theres still an underground network of resistance thats trying to bring back wkroll

but for most part vesselvibe has taken, safe to say, around 75% of the chat

[heady iron]

my beautiful creation, overtaken by an in game sprite animation

[tawdry palm]

oh how the crumble cookies

[primal fractal]

u made wkroll?

[ocean mulch]

:vesselvibe:

[charred pulsar]

vs

Enter your votes now!

[ocean mulch]

Haha get rekt

[uncut citrus]

tbh i like both, i just dont like spam ._.

[fiery coral]

[proud vale]

Well Taco, like my emote suggests, wk-roll is firmly back in power and has swayed the favour of Simo

[uncut citrus]

i mean if you spoil yoursel silksong it will probably cut like half of the fun just like if you spoil yourself HK

[tall hinge]

[proud vale]

🥙

[haughty ingot]

unstoppable force vs immovable object

[potent plover]

I have no doubt hollow knight silksong will be a game

[ocean mulch]

:wkroll:

[pallid flare]

did you miss the revolution of wkroll

[potent plover]

I will have to isolate myself from everything when silksong releases

[ocean mulch]

Just make a new Google account

And mute discord servers about HK

I mean all the servers I'm in are always muted but I know other people to different stuff

[uncut citrus]

oh no i didnt even thought about that what will i do, i still wanna go on the internet but i'll probably take a couples on months to finish silksong fully

i already spoiled myself Sisters of Battle and winged nosk cause i thought i had basically finished the game how will i know when will i have finished Silksong

[native ivy]

milk song

[native ivy]

100% before content updates?

[normal token]

[uncut citrus]

no im relatively new to Hollow knight i started playing after the last dlc but i didnt find godseeker until very far in since its kinda hidden

[normal hinge]

I think they're talking about silksong

[uncut citrus]

how would a dlc spoil stuff? especially as they probably won release a SS dlc or if they do it'll be a few months after he release and by then ill have basically finished the game

[normal hinge]

what

no this 'how will I know when when will I have finished silksong'

[uncut citrus]

oh i thought they were saying "your gonna get to 100% before the content update?" but they meant like "you'll know when you see 100% competition before any DLC"

my point still stand tho, sisters of battle and winged nosk dont need to be fought to have 112%, theres alot of things that doesnt count for any % but that would suck to get it spoiled n HK and i dont think Silksong will be any diffrent

[uncut citrus]

also i've done more removing the hard cut between different screenshots that ruins the immersion but my best friend, the clone stample wont work (probably because of how slow that pc is) so this is taking a while

(it starts at the starting bench)

[ocean mulch]

You didn't add the shard puch

Map is gud

Did you only use the treehouse gameplay

The missing corners are messing with my brain 😭

[uncut citrus]

i dont think there any screenrecorded gameplay of that so idk how could i add it, maybe just a text?

also missing corners? wdym

[ocean mulch]

Just random spaces
It's my perfectionism
Just ignore that

[ocean mulch]

Oh yeah you're right it was recorded with a camera

[uncut citrus]

i'll totally add a text like i did with the Rosary String tho thanks for reminding me of that shard pouch

[normal token]

Nice

[ocean mulch]

I can't wait to play this gamenshsjjshsjjakaisjdjdjhshxhvuvbybynynybyvyyccyyxhsgevdbbdhshuxuduhshshxjsjsixiu uc

Damn, nice work, but it still could be just a demo area and isn't what the actual Deepdocks looks like

[shell cedar]

[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.

[dusty nimbus]

Can I join your pirate ship?

[uncut citrus]

i know

[haughty ingot]

there's a small room here with a shard pouch (only camera footage though)

[tired mist]

Will ss have mac support?

[opaque sigil]

Probably

[uncut citrus]

yeah i know Chroma pointed it out already, ill make sure to add a text like i did with the Rosary String

[uncut citrus]

im pretty sure they confirmed it will be available for Windows, Mac OS, Linux and switch at release and others platforms later on

[uncut citrus]

Guys im dumb the clone stample was just on 10% opacity i wish i knew this before spending hours thingy that would've been easy to do with it

[silver oak]

Yeah it’s PC and switch at launch

Let’s hope my shitty laptop can run it :vesselvibe:

I wouldn’t be worried if it weren’t for the fact that several fights get some serious frame drops when I play HK, to the point where I have to play in windowed

[dusty nimbus]

If I had to guess absolutely radiance isn't the best boss to play on your pc

[pallid flare]

it absolutely isn't

[silver oak]

Ha

[pallid flare]

it's a bit idiotic that the background for that fight is bright, just like her attacks

I hope this doesn't happen in Silksong

[uncut citrus]

i know Hornet2, grimm, radiance and THK are really bad from my brother who have a really bad laptop and has to play on another computer to fight them, THK and PV are invisible for him

[uncut citrus]

NKG i meant, idk about normal grimm

Also how come two of you pointed out the tiny room that very few know of with the shard pouch while nobody told me i totally missed the giant flea room that was even showed in the E3 footage?

[sacred solstice]

Smh should be moderating

[opaque sigil]

Uh... oops

I completely forgot about that room ngl

And that area had the (maybe) marrow entrance too

[uncut citrus]

and that this area is gonna be the worst thing to ever try to make it look like one image with the constant moving lava

[ocean mulch]

When I found out about that I was so proud cuz in treehouse I knew there must be something in that corner

[uncut citrus]

there's the entrance

[brittle garnet]

reminds me of that other secret I found in Deep Docks

[uncut citrus]

that mean i gotta recenter the entire thing

[uncut citrus]

where

[opaque sigil]

And what

[brittle garnet]

in the first room in the DD demo, there is a place you can get to in the top-left by bouncing on the bench bells as it rises from the ground.

[uncut citrus]

:O

[opaque sigil]

Is there anything up there?

[uncut citrus]

where footage (even if its camera from outside)

[brittle garnet]

no

[uncut citrus]

thats what they want you to think

[brittle garnet]

I don't think footage of this exists

[uncut citrus]

the first Silksong zote bossfight will be here

100% confirmed

[opaque sigil]

Seems like the kind of place where TC would put a shell shard pouch or a rosary string or smth, wouldn't be surprised if one's there in the final game

Although idk if bouncing on the bench as it rises would be an intended strategy since that would only give you one chance to do it

Wall jump would also let you get up there

[wooden salmon]

How’s it going

[vivid belfry]

The bell benches sink back into the ground when you leave

[opaque sigil]

Oh, ok then

[vivid belfry]

Or at least the one by forge daughter does, maybe the starting bench is coded differently for the demo

[opaque sigil]

That sounds like it could get annoying, having to wait for them to deploy

[uncut citrus]

you mean here? or an actual hidden room on the other side

[opaque sigil]

The hobby consolas footage shows the bench going down and you do not have to go far

Imagine forgetting to equip something and walking more than a couple steps away before remembering and having to wait for it to go down and then back up in order to do so
When SS comes out I won't have to imagine

[uncut citrus]

The bench goes back down everytimes you leave the room so you can do it indefinity

[brittle garnet]

yeah I mean here

[opaque sigil]

Not even when you leave the room

When it's offscreen, looks like

I don't know if I like that ngl

[uncut citrus]

i dont think its only as it rises

[opaque sigil]

I love how in the hobby consolas footage the player is just hitting everything clearly looking for secrets

A true HK player

[uncut citrus]

it looks like even fully up you can still reach the little bell and nail needle jump

[opaque sigil]

Instincts honed through hundreds of hours of HK

[uncut citrus]

to the big one

[uncut citrus]

that looks painful

[opaque sigil]

smackin' the hell out of walls is the best way to find things

[uncut citrus]

thanks to the HK instinct i could find many berries in Celest

aight ill be back in like 30min

[fathom peak]

yeah that honestly is HK instinct
even up to now i still do it sometimes thinking im gonna find somethine new (which'll never happen, cuz the whole map is filled out)

[ocean mulch]

You're a genius

[brittle garnet]

I know

[opaque sigil]

Yeah SS is gonna be a lot of smacking random walls too, but with actual purpose now

[trim estuary]

Thanks to hollow knight I can actually find stuff now

[opaque sigil]

Also, just gonna say, the lava in the demo is very loud

[trim estuary]

Good

[opaque sigil]

Like you can't hear anything

[jovial sand]

What’s the point of a game if you don’t get hearing issues?

[trim estuary]

[tribal merlin]

loud = funny

[opaque sigil]

spoken like a middle schooler

[fathom peak]

kinda glad about that part
this time i'll finally explore on my own
||without the wiki to help me ||

[trim estuary]

Spoken like a true terraria player

[carmine sapphire]

Silksongs final boss will be elderbug

[vivid belfry]

I hope silksong doesn't devolve into smacking random walls, HK had some pretty nice visual signifiers of which walls to smack

Attacking every tile in the room is more old-school metroid

[carmine sapphire]

We didnt see any breakable wall in the demo

[jovial sand]

Maybe there were none

[opaque sigil]

Yeah but there were still some that didn't

I was exaggerating

[fathom peak]

i mean
i think whether or not there are visual hints on which are breakable or non-breakable
people will still do it probably
bc paranoid

[uncut citrus]

there is most of the time but some rare case have no indicator (ex. Dung defender rooms)

[tribal merlin]

ez fix: TC make the walls hit back

[viral pivot]

XD

[opaque sigil]

Wall mimics

[uncut citrus]

if nobody hit random walls we'll never know if there is actually some wall that doesnt have any indicator

[vivid belfry]

The white defender room does have a visual indicator but it's way less obvious than every other breakable floor (aside from white palace)

[carmine sapphire]

I like just hitting the attack button at walls even if they arent breakable

[vivid belfry]

And weavers den is straight up invisible

[opaque sigil]

There's also EO and that one chest in King's Station

[viral pivot]

theres some in weavers den too i dont think have indicators

ima snail myself

[vivid belfry]

Well I was actually talking about just getting to weavers den but that is also true

[fathom peak]

well for brekable floors you hear that little rumble sound whenever you walk over it

[marsh ibex]

and then there’s path of pain

[viral pivot]

not all

[marsh ibex]

alright whoever snailed me is getting muted

[viral pivot]

XD

[opaque sigil]

What do you think grover was talking about when he mentioned WP

[marsh ibex]

whomst has snailed the kristmas one

it was you wasn’t it tammo

[opaque sigil]

[marsh ibex]

goodbye

[opaque sigil]

[marsh ibex]

hehe

I lied

nae naed

[opaque sigil]

goddammit I would have taken the mute

[carmine sapphire]

Path of pain is pretty well hidden yes, you even need full kingsoul to go there or am i wrong?

[marsh ibex]

you don’t iirc

[viral pivot]

You just need what you need for white palace

[fiery coral]

Nah you don't need Kingsoul

[marsh ibex]

Silence nerd

[fiery coral]

said the nerd

[carmine sapphire]

[uncut citrus]

i feel like the wall hits back there (copy message link wont work so i used the old fashion way?

[marsh ibex]

when the tammo is sus

[opaque sigil]

[marsh ibex]

[fiery coral]

Why have you done this Joker

[opaque sigil]

Like you haven't done it too

[fiery coral]

There

[marsh ibex]

lmao

[opaque sigil]

[fiery coral]

[normal token]

Susso

[marsh ibex]

Yep

[uncut citrus]

when #sk-discussion talked about every possible Silksong related topic it just becomes Nicking as amogus and sussing eachother

or talking about how zote, cornifer and nosks are higher higher beings that can destroy the univers

[opaque sigil]

No that's just me apparently

I am a pawn in the mods' cruel game

[pallid flare]

those mods are up to something I tell ya

[marsh ibex]

yeah yeah

[cunning geode]

You got Tammy-ified again?

[pallid flare]

Look how they all came in at once

[fiery coral]

Yeah Joker up to his usual tricks again

[uncut citrus]

no but seriusly i think a good 1/3 of this channel aint even remotely related to silksong, but as soon as the game will come out there will be like the total amount of messages in this channel so far in one day

when Silksong comes out this place is gonna be a warzone

[normal token]

The mods pick one person at random and make them suffer, their victim was Tammo this time

[pallid flare]

i hope i'm not next

[marsh ibex]

teah

[opaque sigil]

fr tho it's ok, I'm not complaining and they probably wouldn't do it if it bothered me

Joker and unique are cool dudes ™️

[fiery coral]

No u

[marsh ibex]

I am not

[vivid belfry]

I am not the joker baby!

[lapis inlet]

i am kind of interested in seeing what the lore scene will be like. all the uncertainties and wild fun theories that aren't just shut down because most people aren't really sure what is fact and what is fabrication

[cunning geode]

No I’ll shut everything down

and then leave

[fathom peak]

amazing

[normal token]

Then Simo snaps and deletes the server

[lapis inlet]

if you look through previous messages you'll find people saying Hornet is void or half-void without any ironic tone. that'd be fun, to see something like that again

[carmine sapphire]

Just the demo is enough proof hornet is not void
And in the original game she says herself that she isnt void
and she can talk

[opaque sigil]

Void can talk but the other two points are proof enough, not that that's in question

[compact scaffold]

Is ss in play testing stage

[carmine sapphire]

we dont know

[opaque sigil]

cayddn wasn't saying hornet is void they were just talking about determining things like that in the time after SS releases

[cunning geode]

it’s always in playtesting stage

Otherwise how do they know what they make functions

[tribal merlin]

well there's more than 1 kind of playtesting

[cunning geode]

That was my patented shitty mod answer

[carmine sapphire]

They meant if they are done with the game and playtesting is the only thing left

[tribal merlin]

there's the testing that goes on while the game is constructed and there's larger scale testing that goes on while the development is frozen

[gleaming palm]

Hello, it's been a while since i've been in this server

[cunning geode]

[gleaming palm]

The ss wait

[tribal merlin]

[pallid flare]

[gleaming palm]

Well, everyone kinda is. If a product has not arrived that you intend to use, you are waiting for the product.

Proceeds to talk non-stop in this server

[tribal merlin]

there's a difference between waiting for and looking forward to something
like you're not standing at a bus stop and "looking forward to" the bus arriving

[carmine sapphire]

[cunning geode]

[carmine sapphire]

[cunning geode]

And I was like “oh they must’ve changed it so people could recognize them”
