#

Tools also have limited uses

nimble radish
#

tools are more limited than silk

opaque sigil
#

But there's more freedom with those uses

brittle garnet
#

that's also a good point, silk is technically unlimited

opaque sigil
#

Tool use isn't dependent on health, nor can they be temporarily unavailable

#

When at low health using silk to attack is a bad move, and after healing you may be unable to use it temporarily

brittle garnet
#

they can be permanently unavailable though

opaque sigil
#

Doesn't make them not useful

#

Neither is a replacement or alternative for the other

brittle garnet
#

yeah but my point is that not using a lot of offensive tools won't make it unreasonably more difficult to play the game

opaque sigil
#

It would make it more difficult, and that's only considering active tools

brittle garnet
#

it stands to reason that even if a crest would have a lot of yellow slots, it would also have at least some other slots, right?

pastel silo
#

Tammo's problem is that he assumes there will be yellow heavy crests in the first place , if the yellow tools are too weak in their power level compared to other colors they just won't make a yellow focused crest

opaque sigil
#

Presumably some but the difference between 1 and 2 or 3 is significant

brittle garnet
#

we'll see

opaque sigil
#

No, the difference is definitely significant

pastel silo
#

So far we haven't seen a single crest that is heavy on one colour so it's a false assumption to make in the first place

brittle garnet
#

I can get around the world and beat bosses relatively without much issues without using all of my notches for offensive charms

opaque sigil
#

Many players struggled against bosses even with the strongest possible charm setup

brittle garnet
#

well then that's their problem, not the charms', clearly

opaque sigil
#

Also the notion of categorization based on combat/noncombat tool is kinda silly because the line between those can be arbitrary and if all yellow tools are just resource gathering that's pretty dull

#

That sorta lopsided design would push the more interesting effects into the blue category

brittle garnet
#

And you also have to remember that picking offensive/defensive charms is the player's choice, it's not something that's static across the entire game, you adjust your loadout for what you're doing at the moment

silver oak
#

I don't think we'll see more than 6 slots in a crest
Maybe 7 or 8 at max

opaque sigil
brittle garnet
#

you focused on the wrong part of the sentence

opaque sigil
#

That wasn't the proposed dichotomy

silver oak
#

The categories are probably closer akin to usable in the world/passive buffs

brittle garnet
#

i added defense to offense since they are both part of the combat category

worthy lichen
#

crest and tool upgrading? quirrelmonocle

opaque sigil
silver oak
#

I could see crest upgrading, tool upgrading seems less likely

nimble radish
#

noncombat tools is any tool that doesn't deal damage knightyes

brittle garnet
#

as in, picking COMBAT tool/charms is something the player can choose to do if they find themselves LACKING in that ASPECT.

worthy lichen
opaque sigil
nimble radish
#

useful outside of combat too

opaque sigil
#

Not necessarily

#

Soul Eater doesn't do damage but it isn't useful outside of a fight

#

This is why I said the barrier between combat/noncombat can be arbitrary

brittle garnet
#

but you can only benefit from Soul Eater in combat

opaque sigil
#

I just said that

silver oak
#

he just said that

rapid topaz
#

Dashmaster can be used for both

opaque sigil
#

But by Lori's definition it would be a noncombat tool

brittle garnet
#

because
you need to
you know
HIT ENEMIES
to get soul

nimble radish
opaque sigil
#

A similar hypothetical tool

tawdry valley
#

Like, are we speaking from a lore perspective or a gameplay perspective

silver oak
#

gameplay

opaque sigil
#

I'm also just against the piling of the bulk of moment-to-moment meaningful/interesting tools into a single category overall

nimble radish
#

red tools are red because of blood
blue tools are blue because of water
yellow tools are yellow because of

tawdry valley
#

Soul eater is primarily a combat charm. This does not make Soul on hit (from an enemy) an exclusively combat related ability.

silver oak
#

I mean otherwise the distinction wouldn't be necessary

silver oak
nimble radish
#

air isn't yellow tf

tawdry valley
#

Literally anything we know about the crest system is potentially and plausibly outdated, for the record.

opaque sigil
#

Yes

nimble radish
#

alright hows this
non combat tools are tools that are useless

opaque sigil
#

Longnail zote

tawdry valley
brittle garnet
#

The correct way to categorize them are that combat tools are those that normally REQUIRE you to engage in combat to use their effects. So anything that has to do with your silk spool for example, because Silk is almost exclusively used in combat. The need to heal out of combat and ways to gain Silk from the environment are exceptions.

nimble radish
opaque sigil
#

No

nimble radish
opaque sigil
silver oak
#

Heavy blow omegamarmu

brittle garnet
#

Dashmaster would be a utility tool because it's effect is usable outside of combat.

tawdry valley
#

Longnail is a cheaper equivalent to the effectiveness of MoP in ~50% of the situations that nail length is helpful in general, assuming the player can space hits with above average precision

#

“Longnail bad” is slander and I won’t have it

brittle garnet
opaque sigil
#

Except those tools could also be used in combat, making them not non-combat tools palehmm

tawdry valley
opaque sigil
#

And there are cases where that isn't a solid way to think about things, like something that reduces costs to bind

brittle garnet
nimble radish
opaque sigil
#

There are things that could be used outside of combat but would only be useful in combat

nimble radish
#

hullo iWest

opaque sigil
#

And the degree to which that holds for a given tool would not necessarily be clear

brittle garnet
#

That's also not what I said distinguishes them.

#

I said that "noncombat" tools don't require you to enter combat to benefit off of them.

opaque sigil
#

But it defeats the purpose of such a distinction even if it doesn't break the rules, which is just as bad as breaking the rules

proud dagger
#

Personally the main theory I’ve had so far is that red tools are active abilities that you use, like projectiles and the lifeblood syringe, blue tools affect your existing abilities, and yellow tools are passive effects, like the compass or gathering swarm

opaque sigil
#

Also there's just zero evidence that the yellow tools are noncombat tools in the first place

tawdry valley
#

Items with effects have different effects.

nimble radish
opaque sigil
#

Only resource gathering thing we know of is likely a crest

tawdry valley
#

Effects can be used in a variety of ways and situations regardless of their nature or classification

brittle garnet
#

Should we just not discuss them?

#

Go right ahead, if you so wish.

proud dagger
#

But yeah red is still the only one we really know anything about so far

tawdry valley
#

Example: this is the demoman from the hit game teem fortress too.
He is defined as a “defensive” class by the game, because he can place traps.

In the games competitive and casual meta, he is the most dangerous and powerful offensive pusher

potent plover
#

red tools seem to be consumable, not just combat ( Thought most are for combat ) the yellow tool sigil kind of looks like a compass, So maybe it's for QoL passive effects? Or just passive effects in general, Like maybe yellow tools are just charms without the notches part.

nimble radish
#

yeah but he's scottish what else would you expect

opaque sigil
#

Tool sigil appearance doesn't necessarily mean anything

#

They're just designs

tawdry valley
#

Point is that whatever the game will define each tool type as, each tool will have unique effects and thus unique purposes that are likely to extend outside of their classification (but not developer intention)

opaque sigil
#

Probably

tawdry valley
#

Tool classification at best will consistently define how the effect is applied, like what @proud dagger said.
Passive effect, influences specific attack types, etc

opaque sigil
#

Also idk how razor wire would be useful outside of combat

#

Or useful exclusively outside of combat

digital glen
#

I hope they interect with each other

proud dagger
#

I think that TC seem like they would prefer to have tools with more than one use, as we can see from the bouncing on a spike ball scene in the trailer

brittle garnet
potent plover
#

Also, tools will probably have some sequence-breaking ( I know it's a Metroidvania, I don't know any other words of it ) capabilities

opaque sigil
digital glen
opaque sigil
digital glen
#

The tools seem to be upgradable as well

opaque sigil
#

They don't really?

brittle garnet
#

it was, the discussion started because you said that having non-combat-slot-heavy crests would be terrible for combat

opaque sigil
#

There are tools that are conceptually upgrades but that doesn't seem to be the case mechanically

opaque sigil
brittle garnet
#

And I think that sacrificing a couple combat effects will not make you bad at combat

opaque sigil
#

No but it makes the loadout bad for combat

brittle garnet
#

wow, who would've thunk that a non-combat utility loadout would be worse for combat

digital glen
#

So what dictates a throwing knife being one or three?

opaque sigil
#

I mean I said that and you went and disagreed so ig you zote

proud dagger
#

I mean the thing is just that combat is kinda the main mechanic of the game

brittle garnet
opaque sigil
#

I said that bosses would be balanced with the expectation that players are using red tools

#

Not that they were required. I never said that

brittle garnet
#

but not all red tools deal damage, so how would that balance work?

nimble radish
#

that's the plan

opaque sigil
#

Same way HK bosses were presumably designed with the anticipation that players were using charms, which is why charm binding sucks

brittle garnet
#

but how would that allow you to appropriately balance a boss for such a variety of different factors?

proud dagger
# nimble radish like, is it though

There are certainly other mechanics in the game, but I’d say that combat is a) the biggest way of interacting with the world and b) by far the easiest one to design small optional bonuses for

brittle garnet
#

and also I said that a yellow-heavy crest would probably still have at least one offensive slot

nimble radish
#

consider, change tools on a case by case basis

opaque sigil
#

One offensive slot vs 2-3 is a big difference

#

Huge difference

nimble radish
tawdry valley
#

Combat is only one the the games many ways of barring the player from progression, and this applies to mask shards and chests all the way up to major abilities @proud dagger

nimble radish
#

straight pin all the way, from moss mother to blackwyrm

opaque sigil
#

Look I'm sorry that you didn't pay attention to what I was actually saying but I don't want to do this again

brittle garnet
opaque sigil
#

Not required, anticipated

#

Anticipated

#

Expected

#

Consistent with the intended way to play the game

brittle garnet
#

expected to have how many offensive tools? Where is the line drawn?

opaque sigil
digital glen
opaque sigil
tawdry valley
#

Crystal heart is behind a parkour section, shade dash is behind the hardest non-dream boss in game, ismas tear is behind a boss, but also hidden behind area inference and exploration skill.

The whole game revolves around the last part, using clues in the environment to find ways forward, starting in the crossroads when you see moss on the entrance to greenpath @proud dagger

brittle garnet
#

well, you say 2-3 offensive tools is a huge difference, is the difference so big that without them you'll be significantly disadvantaged?

opaque sigil
#

Yes, relative to having them

brittle garnet
#

but we're talking relative to the difficulty of the content

proud dagger
nimble radish
#

oh no I agree most of the charms are combat based
just not that the game is about combat more than exploration

opaque sigil
#

If content isn't made with the expectation that players will use the tools available to them then that's just bad design

potent plover
#

According to ss-discussion, we already know of like 14+ areas in silksong.

opaque sigil
#

You don't give players things and expect them not to use them when appropriate

#

Otherwise you wouldn't bother

opaque sigil
#

Well I don't agree that it should be an entire color of tool

proud dagger
#

I would say there are essentially four main mechanics that make up Hollow Knight and presumably Silksong as well: Exploration, combat with enemies, combat with bosses, and platforming

quartz yew
#

I'm back from eating ice cream and watching lore videos. What ya'll been up to?

anyway, another potentially good explaination to tool categories are that Red is active, Blue affects your Silk or abilities, and Yellow is anything else

i mean tlo2 is a weird case cause a lot of the negative reception was influenced by unhinged nerds who never go outside and think its unrealistic if women exist, and its hard to untangle that from actual critique of the game itself and development
