Fuck you Dyno I won’t trust you

[dusk badger]

[dusk sleet]

Elden ring and TW:WH3

[coarse leaf]

be prepared for a 3rd one soon

[trim estuary]

Any Silksong news?

[burnt topaz]

idk

[coarse leaf]

[dusk sleet]

My priorities would be SS>WH3>Elden Ring

[heady jolt]

idk its 🐌 for me

[runic adder]

Clowns are not wrong about everything

[dusk badger]

wh3? wht

[pastel silo]

But what about second playthrough of SS?

[coarse leaf]

it would be a huge fucking troll if team cherry just reveals release date right after the day of TGA

[empty trench]

but what about SS 2?

[trim estuary]

Hungry Knight 4???

[coarse leaf]

Zote Game???

[dusk badger]

number 4 already?

[dusk sleet]

Bish I beat HK in like 60 hrs the first time

[coarse leaf]

bad lol

[dusk badger]

i.e. the silk soul mode

[burnt topaz]

its real

[languid linden]

Alright we're officially loosing it

[runic adder]

Holy shit

[untold inlet]

If I were TC and wanted to reveal the release date right after TGA I'd tweet something before the awards like "huge Silksong news coming this week!" so that by the time the awards rolled around they didn't matter as much

[coarse leaf]

i would just like to say that the last indie direct is the 27th most viewed video ever made by nintendo's youtube channel

[pastel silo]

It will be only worse as the Day of Reckoning approaches

[worthy lichen]

my jokes about silksong 2 were real I knew it!!

[runic adder]

So true bestie

[coarse leaf]

people are super hyped for this game that even directs without it get tons of views

if we get a direct WITH silksong it's going to be viral as hell

[dusk badger]

maybe even more viral than those mossbag videos

could you imagine that level of fame

[wanton crest]

maybe not all people are watching bc of silksong

[coarse leaf]

and yes the video is right behind disney magical world 2

[coarse leaf]

i mean i cant think of anything big big in that besides potential silksong

[coarse leaf]

i think ur overestimating it a bit

[wanton crest]

yeah idk, i don't really follow nintendo games

[coarse leaf]

lmao the dislike ratio

[dusk badger]

oh you still have the dislikes? some kind of addon?

[coarse leaf]

wait uhh

[dusk badger]

waiting patiently

[coarse leaf]

at least we become sane again

[burnt topaz]

less sane and more back to our usual level of sanity

[untold inlet]

I just need to be cryogenically frozen until Thursday

[burnt topaz]

you can get into the meat freezer

[dusk badger]

here's my version

[burnt topaz]

whats the spike where we become completely sane

[fathom peak]

why does it go up like that
we've never been that sane

[coarse leaf]

1000 iq after tga

[grim forge]

Too much sanity

[pastel silo]

73 hours left

[burnt topaz]

its the part where everyone leaves to play silksong so theres no one left to be insane

[dusk badger]

it's just graig in the chat at that time

[dusk sleet]

It’s like post nut clarity

[coarse leaf]

Graig jokes about Silksong 2 and it actually happens

[dusk badger]

i don't think this community can handle another cliffhanger at an ending

unless they can

[torpid fractal]

i don't speak squiggly

[coarse leaf]

We beat Rad AnyRad, we can literally do anything we want

[dusk badger]

smh my tablet is broken rn sorry!

[trim estuary]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-reality-reality-can-be-whatever-i-want-infinity-gantlet-avengers-end-game-gif-13852128

[coarse leaf]

Exactly

[dusk badger]

this is just how fan remakes are justified

[pastel silo]

Would you prefer SS to be shadowdropped or for there to be a time for hype build up?

[grim forge]

I want hype to build up

[burnt topaz]

if theres a trailer, id prefer for it to not be a shadowdrop so we can analyse the trailer

[coarse leaf]

I like hype
But I hate overhype

[dusk badger]

i don't think team cherry would shadowdrop something they worked on for so long
it's a big game after all

they could shadowdrop zoteboat tho

[warm bone]

me when inspect element

[coarse leaf]

What is happening?

[hollow sedge]

finally we shall receive salvation on Thursday

[serene chasm]

Stuff

[opaque sigil]

nothing at all

[dusk badger]

it's a barren wasteland here

[coarse leaf]

Will we have news of SS at TGA?

[opaque sigil]

Same deal as every event

[hollow sedge]

yes, there will be news

[torpid fractal]

can we? yes will we? no

[coarse leaf]

Will we, sorry*

[torpid fractal]

no

[opaque sigil]

There's a chance but not a significant likelihood

[hollow sedge]

probably not, although it'll be fun watching this chat meltdown

[proud dagger]

I’m not gonna say it’s even probably gonna happen but anyone who’s acting like there’s no chance is also wrong

I’d put it at least at a fair chance

[hollow sedge]

Geoff is actually teasing some announcements on twitter, like the new Sonic game

[coarse leaf]

So it's 200% now? haha

[torpid fractal]

.2% but whatever

[serene chasm]

Everyday we are half as close as before to ss

[dusk badger]

Efore

[pastel silo]

It would be weird if TGA instagram page deliberately liked silksong comment for nothing. I am not saying it proves anything just that it gives at least some merit

[opaque sigil]

TGA wins

[old flare]

When is tga btw

[proud dagger]

Thursday at 8 eastern time

[stoic thistle]

3 days 30 mins from now

[old flare]

Neat, thanks. Time to get my clown makeup on lol

I don't expect news but I'll try to watch parts of it anyways

Will it be on YouTube

[pastel silo]

Could you lend me some? I ran out of mine after e3

[old flare]

Loll

[proud dagger]

But yeah, I don’t think that liked comment was definitely meant to be hinting at something, but I still also don’t think there’s no chance it means anything.

[stoic thistle]

Would be best for them to do an early 2022 release with an announcement during TGA given it is after the big time games and before the next season of big time games

Unless ofc they are going for 2023

[proud dagger]

I really doubt they’re going for 2023 but I guess I thought the same thing about 2022 a year ago

[old flare]

These game events are like schrodinger's cat. Before the event, silksong news both exists and doesn't exist at the same time

[pastel silo]

Also them updating HK since the beginning of the year and the lead playtester working on his own game ...it's those little things that create the feeling that this might be it

[stoic thistle]

I doubt that too but u know it is still an indie and they are a very small team (sure with more resorces than before but still a very small team)

[random fox]

End of december hopium

[stoic thistle]

My bet is on february/march

[random fox]

Doubt they would announce at tga and release 3 months later

I think either late december, 2 weeks after tga announcment or early january, idk if they would wanna drop it in february

[stoic thistle]

Nintendo tends to do this a lot with indie games/their own games

[random fox]

Ss isnt a nintendo game

[vague heath]

february release date makes sense to me given how Hollow Knight and The silksong announcement trailer were both in February

[untold inlet]

TC isn't bound to what Nintendo wants

[stoic thistle]

Highly doubt the game will come 2 weeks after its announcement

[vague heath]

same

[proud dagger]

Yeah they did that with the first game but they were pretty obscure back then

[random fox]

Why tho? 2 weeks seems like a perfect time to get hype and not let it die out

Expecialy for an indie

[stoic thistle]

True yet their reveals happen during Nintendo stuff usually and even those who are not bound to Nintendo's will do the same

[pastel silo]

Okay but lets say ss is finished and they are waiting for the announcement....whats the point of waiting more than 2 weeks?

[torpid fractal]

hype would not die out in 3 months

[royal ridge]

TGA looks like god-tier wishlist for ppl. When for now it looks like a big Unreal Engine 5 ad.

[old flare]

Would be really cool if hollow knight and silksong had the same release date

[gloomy fiber]

I think this is a lot bigger than a typical indie, tho

[random fox]

Not that ss is small but only games that can get away with announcments few months before release are massive tittles like er or gow ragnarok

[torpid fractal]

people have been hyped over multiple events for multiple years when nothing has been confirmed

[stoic thistle]

Usually for an Indie I would agree but SS is no typical indie

[vague heath]

Hollow Knight =Released= February 24th
Silksong Trailer =Released= February 14th

[torpid fractal]

one time leth said that they would specifically say it would be at the event if it was and people were still hyped for it

[proud dagger]

I mean they don’t have to wait until the game is absolutely 100% done and will not be changed at all to announce it, from what I’ve heard the entire Millibelle bank side plot was added less than a week before HK released

[gloomy fiber]

why bother competing with Elden Ring in February though? March or April seem more likely idk

[old flare]

They could probably do updates and expansions like with hk, but I'm not sure if they would, since they want to work on another game unrelated to hk after silksong

[royal ridge]

Well, we are far away from time when we called Indie games these cheap but fun games. Now indie game can have HUGE budget, release game by themselves, and more. SGG is one great example. Hades probably costed more than 50M$ to do.

[pastel silo]

Hk was a completely different situation, they had limited resources and time thats why they were cramming stuff in till the last moment

[random fox]

To me march and april seem too late so thats why my bets are on december or early january

[vague heath]

all my bets are on february

[old flare]

I don't mind waiting as long as silksong is better or as good as hk

[stoic thistle]

True true I tend more to "early 2022" than a spacific month

Can't really compete with something that massive Indie or not

[proud dagger]

Considering Hollow Knight came out about a week before Breath of the Wild and they had way less of a following then I don’t think they’re too worried about competition with other games

[serene chasm]

SS will do fine whenever it comes out

[random fox]

February wouldve been a decent month if er didnt get delayed since i think it could compete with horizon forbidden west and dying light 2 but now that er is february too i dont see them releasing it with it

[stoic thistle]

HK and SS are a different case

[torpid fractal]

ok and? the case here is that ss is confirmed to do better

well not better

[stoic thistle]

With HK they could have had "must release no money" moments

[torpid fractal]

have a better start

[vague heath]

I think they'll release SS when it's ready. I dont think other games coming out in that month really change the release date

[split tide]

Weren’t they prepared to be able to release HK basically whenever

[dusk sleet]

I’m pretty sure that most people here would drop everything if ss came out

[stoic thistle]

With SS they can do whatever tf they want they can wait for the best timing for maximum potential profit

[random fox]

I dont see why they wouldnt delay it 1 or 2 weeks to get a better release date marketing wise

[pastel silo]

Also guys there is a possibility that SS is already finished even before it gets announed on TGA , then there would be no reason to wait longer than month for launch

[split tide]

Pressure for SS probably stems more from fan expectations

[stoic thistle]

Most people here are nothing compared to the potential market

[vague heath]

well if the release date isnt out, sure, 1 or 2 weeks isnt much time but it really depends so cant really say much

[torpid fractal]

i'd say the likelihood that silksong is already finished is high

[royal ridge]

Like CyberPunk 2077, they could delay the release, but they did not due of people started to cry after 3 times. xd

[analog forge]

i woudnt say high, per say

[torpid fractal]

they have mentioned that for hollow knight they finish the game first and add build the world more later

[pastel silo]

I mean they have been updating Hk out of nowhere since the start of the year and the lead playtester is working on his own game

[split tide]

If TC can get more profit from a properly timed release, then they may (and should) do so

[stoic thistle]

Launching in October for an Indie game is not good at all

[grim forge]

I would say it's not finished

It'll probably be finished around when it releases

[primal oriole]

I would say we have no clue lol

[random fox]

Damn rly??

[stoic thistle]

Unlike Cyberprank 2077 they don't build up hype to the people

They only showed the game

[vague heath]

Pretty sure they arent releasing the release date until its definite

[pastel silo]

It may be and it may not be. There is a possibility it will be finished before its announcement as Leth has said above

[proud dagger]

If you mean that it is a completable game and at any moment they could just stop adding content and move to polishing, then I’d be inclined to agree, but if you mean that they already are done adding content, then I don’t.

[grim forge]

True

[cerulean sable]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-WfOrA2GHa17sBpMIwcwa35Sj1XThzK1ulk4kCZmOd8/edit?usp=sharing heres the members WIP

[vague heath]

The main game will definitely be finished when it's released, but content wise, who knows? probably but there no ways for us to know

[pastel silo]

Yes I am stating that only as an option

[dusk sleet]

What is the cult and how do I join

[pastel silo]

Btw does Graig working on his own game not warrant a place on your "evidence" board?

[random fox]

Is this free fornite veebuck

[royal ridge]

For Hollow Knight its enough, there are different types of building hype. Sometimes silence is best, because people start to imagine. If you will start teasing something into an direction then people might overthink it. The same way CyberPunk fall, cuz people got less than CD Project told.

And when you imagine things by himself, then you are not disappointed , cuz you know it was your imagination

[torpid fractal]

he actually has access to the cult because hes planning to take them out before thursday, less spam

[random fox]

Anyways 3 more days until trailer

[cerulean sable]

hmmm it depends, Benji has been making his own shit since back last year, i think at this point playtesting is more or less theyre hard sideline? that they go to back to when theyre not busy playtesting

[stoic thistle]

Much better way to approach a highly anticipated game

[cerulean sable]

Dunno just skeptical since weve been doing the "See Larkin said hes done 30 tracks in SS, therefor its close to being finished" last year

but it could still be a possibility

[royal ridge]

And its best introduction why Clown mome got so popular here, as people know that all they imagine was just their things.

[cerulean sable]

added

[torpid fractal]

Anyways 3 more days until trailer dissapointment

[pastel silo]

Yea I guess youre right...but still the lead playtester 👀 sus

[random fox]

no

No dissapointment this time

[old flare]

But then again, I feel like they would pr more if silksong was going to be at any events

So another reason not to get your hopes up

[grim forge]

Only hope and satisfaction

[cerulean sable]

yeah i get you 👀

[stoic thistle]

This is actually the first time I actually believe SS will be present

[pastel silo]

Alongside TC updating HK since the beginning of the year despite them working hard on silksong ....hmmmm

[proud dagger]

Honestly still kinda wondering what the deal was with those updates

Like up until June it was about updating to a new Unity version and they just decided to patch some bugs while they were at it

But then they randomly put out a second bugfix update

[raven minnow]

silksong might be in playtesting and they had time to go back and program some more maybe

[reef scarab]

Ayo add me

[cerulean sable]

d o ne

[random fox]

Well if ss is gonna be on tga id assume that they are either rly close to being done or alredy done

[dusk sleet]

can i get armor assault director position?

[digital junco]

they will announce at tga that the game is not finished

[grim forge]

Just read the chat on December 15th 2020

[cerulean sable]

done

[grim forge]

That was fun

[dusty kettle]

fuck this game

[pastel silo]

But what a troll move from TC the edge was, they just come in, show us that SS is even more amazing than we thought, and then just say cya fools and leave for a year.

[naive flax]

SILKSONG NEWS SOON! YALL HYPED???

[knotty dragon]

me too

[last relic]

Clown time? hehe🤡

[naive flax]

That is real

110%

[copper knot]

what the fuck is "Wolf Among Us 2"

[naive flax]

Among Us DLC

[last relic]

exactly lol

[opaque sigil]

I'll join on two conditions:
1: I get to remain skeptical (precedent exists)
2: I get the Gold Knight role because Titania

[hollow terrace]

the sequel to "the wolf among us"

[naive flax]

Wow I didn't know that

[opaque sigil]

Also because people have been claiming that I'm a part of an anti tga cult and this will mess with them big time

[proud dagger]

I highly doubt Minecraft is gonna show up, they really don’t seem the type to do external events

[naive flax]

It's not a "cult", it's reality.

[last relic]

true

[cerulean sable]

Deal

[knotty dragon]

wait id like to join cult

[pastel silo]

Bro imagine the gradual madness that will arise once the first few games of TGA end up being from the list

[knotty dragon]

wait im there already

[radiant wraith]

join us spade

[knotty dragon]

just checked the spreadsheet

[radiant wraith]

oh

[knotty dragon]

wolf among us 2 👀

[knotty dragon]

yes

[copper knot]

among amo amo n among m AMO

[royal ridge]

Bayo 3 was already announced, and few more that says me to say its fake

[copper knot]

HEY UH JUST OUT OF CURIOSITY HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT THE HIT GAME AMONG US

[vague heath]

no, but ive heard of wolf among us 2

[reef scarab]

Glad to see optimism is more prominent than pessimism for the first time

[untold inlet]

We just passed the 72 hour mark until the start of TGA

[fathom peak]

[pastel silo]

There is just something in the air, it just feels....right

[fleet temple]

I have that feeling

This could be it

[opaque sigil]

So could all the events over the past year or so

[radiant wraith]

"As the cult grows larger and larger, it becomes a need for each cultist to manage a specific task. In this way, the TGA cult shall make it to the day of The Return stronger than ever before, organized. Thus the cult becomes the spearhead of The Waiting, a symbol of devotion to the gift of the Silksong, those who will be ready for (...) " - Book of Waiting 22:11

[fleet temple]

Thank you for your words of wisdom priest

[proud dagger]

I just don’t really feel like they would go a whole year without any news, although I guess I wouldn’t put it past them to drop a new blog on NYD just to say they did

[pastel silo]

This time we have those little clues unlike other events

[radiant wraith]

You are welcome sibling

[sterile sleet]

Can’t wait to see the disappointment

[opaque sigil]

News for the sake of news is worse than no news

[last relic]

Try searching for it on internet

don't trust 4chan leak

"(...) m (...) E (...) when b (...) ea (...) n (...) S (...)" -Book of waiting 18:10 to 25:10

[cerulean sable]

you got your shitty role tammo

[proud dagger]

I mean I’m sure there’s been something worth talking about within the past year of development

[sweet bluff]

oh shit

[pastel silo]

The other events had nothing other than pure hope and in some cases also a deconfirmation...this event there are little miniscule hints that when put together can be built upon

[shell yacht]

yall done smoking crack?

[cerulean sable]

hold on

[opaque sigil]

Maybe but on the off chance there isn't

[sweet bluff]

HA! no

[proud dagger]

It’s not like the vault trio were a huge announcement that changed the way we saw the game

[true vine]

no

[cerulean sable]

NOW im done smoking crack

[languid linden]

We haven't even started yet!

[opaque sigil]

Fair but something like the Dec blogpost might not be all that helpful anyways, people kinda just get angry sometimes whenever news doesn't have a date attached

[grim forge]

After Dec 9th

[knotty dragon]

oh hey im officially the cult janitor now

[opaque sigil]

[knotty dragon]

gonna clean up all the doubter tears on december 8th

[radiant wraith]

Should Hornet be able to smoke?

[digital junco]

number 12

[opaque sigil]

Rated E

[radiant wraith]

Smoking tool?

[untold inlet]

@cerulean sable can I be the cult librarian

[opaque sigil]

Pimpillo probably smokes a bit after detonating

[steady raven]

What does it take to join the TGA cult?

[radiant wraith]

But like, can you smoke it?

[proud dagger]

Insects actually breathe through their abdomen and thorax

So if Hornet smoked it would be with her stomach

[opaque sigil]

Wouldn't recommend it

[cerulean sable]

done

[languid linden]

Okay but the Abyss

[opaque sigil]

shh the little kiddos prolly didn't get it

(or make it there)

[languid linden]

That's true, I have no idea what the Abyss is

[radiant wraith]

Ah I think I sent request to edit, best not to do that I guess, I just want to be the cult priest

[radiant wraith]

It's a League of Legends thing

[languid linden]

Oh right, that fun game

[frank sparrow]

ah LoL- how i hate you

[untold inlet]

Ty!

[frank sparrow]

also morning

[heady jolt]

also still asking for confirmation i am labelled as the cult transport aircraft

[languid linden]

What is bad about LoL anyway

[true vine]

if you guys are right we'd by crying tears of joy

[languid linden]

Before you kill me, please keep in mind that I literally no idea what LoL is about or what the gameplay or community is like

[true vine]

but you won't be right

so instead we'll be on copium while you guys are crying tears of sadness

[radiant wraith]

Non cult members are friends

[true vine]

lol

[languid linden]

Honestly I don't even know what game genre it's in

[radiant wraith]

Everyone is a friend

[cerulean sable]

dne

[reef scarab]

You laugh at a clown, not ridicule

[shell yacht]

[torpid fractal]

its just one of those games where it sounds fun in concept but just makes you feel pure hatred

[cerulean sable]

also at one point i uninstalled LoL after like 8 games

[chilly nexus]

the dopamine that comes from a well landed seraphine ult makes up for it though

[reef scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/gigachad-chad-gif-20773266

[radiant wraith]

I want to be the priest dear prophet

[torpid fractal]

For Honor is also a great example of this

[knotty dragon]

dont want this place flooding

[cerulean sable]

and 1 week later i dreamed about it, lowkey my fucking dream was playing it at with my friends

i shit you not, i was fucking screaming "guys why the fuck are we playing this again please guys what the fuck"

[true vine]

in that case you should get a mirror

[dusk badger]

poor ttaco

[sweet bluff]

i installed LoL played the tutorial then just fucking uninstalled it fuck that shit

[cerulean sable]

i know it sounds like overexaggerating the dream but im serious, thats how i reacted in my dream

we did go through playing it again during my dream though (after i stopped shouting)

[dusk badger]

dreams can definetly get extreme and exaggerated

[sweet bluff]

mobas are not my thing

[cerulean sable]

based

[opaque sigil]

LoL has zero appeal to me

[heady jolt]

same

[cerulean sable]

i do have 400 hours in Dota

[torpid fractal]

i almost played LoL by a friends suggestion but im so glad i didn't pick it up

[cerulean sable]

hence i remembered the toxicity, so i left LoL after 8 games

cant take that shit bro

[dusk badger]

so far i have heard 0 great things about lol so i avoid it

[opaque sigil]

I mean that's kinda a problem with a lot of mp games in general

[cerulean sable]

only exception was like Insurgency or TF2 though

TF2 is large enough that it doesnt have much weight if you underperform

[opaque sigil]

Didn't play either of those games

[split tide]

Co-op mp games seem to be less toxic in my experience

[dusk badger]

titanfall or team fortress

[cerulean sable]

Insurgency has a TTK so short where everyone dies in like 1-2 hits so sweat is less of an issue, especially since i only play coop these days

[split tide]

Ragers and stuff still exist, but not as common

[cerulean sable]

titan what now :^)

[radiant wraith]

CS GO is the worst

[torpid fractal]

i got vote kicked from my first team fortress 2 game

[opaque sigil]

The more competitive a game is the worse it gets

[sweet bluff]

titanfall is fucking amazing

[dusk badger]

what about apex?

[cerulean sable]

yes i do play Apex

[sweet bluff]

haha speed go brrrr
apex is too slow for me tbh

[cerulean sable]

my experience was like 2012-2018

[proud dagger]

Essentially you don’t even need to know the genre of league to understand, all you need to know is that it’s a team game where one person screwing up can easily end the game for 4 skilled players

[cerulean sable]

but ive heard its gotten worst tehse days

[sweet bluff]

also i don’t like BR in general all looting no pew pew
titanfall is mix of big robots and super fast gameplay and i love it

[opaque sigil]

That's a recipe for disaster

[cerulean sable]

TF2 still has my fav inbetween, if youre shit, noone notices, if youre good everyone does and you can easily carry the team

[torpid fractal]

yeah thats the thing about league

[royal ridge]

what do you mean?

[cerulean sable]

honestly while i enjoy Apex, i dont really enjoy the genre too much

it reminds me of roguelikes where you lose all your progress per match

[torpid fractal]

its not a round based system so if someone fucks up they really fuck things up

[dusk badger]

that's an interesting comparison to make. would you say most competitive games are like roguelikes in that respect?

or is it specifically BRs?

[torpid fractal]

no

[proud dagger]

Battle royale games specifically combine the random loot and reset on death elements

[torpid fractal]

"random loot" loot is random in all games

[cerulean sable]

well not exactly 1:1 roguelikes but ya know, most of my oxytocin comes from getting a shiny new gun that i get to keep using hence i love RPGs that doesnt rely on rando generated shite

[torpid fractal]

except for maybe games where you only buy stuff

[proud dagger]

Yeah that was honestly what kept me from getting into borderlands

[dusk badger]

ah, that makes sense

[opaque sigil]

Randomly generated stuff can be good if it's persistent and has a reasonable algorithm

[cerulean sable]

yeah BL2 is something im kinda half half
I dont love but i dont hate it either

its just is

[proud dagger]

Just doesn’t feel good getting a gun that you’re only gonna use for like one level

[torpid fractal]

thats specifically bl2

[sweet bluff]

i love roguelikes

[torpid fractal]

bl1, bl3, and bltps is miles more lenient with balancing

[cerulean sable]

yeee, meanwhile in New Vegas, when you get a unique it actually feels cool

Its also part of my issues with Fallout 4, i love the weapon part mechanic but i was dissapointed when they relied on Legendary rando generated loot for special areas/bosses instead

[sweet bluff]

i like having to not rely on the exact same loot every single fucking run

[proud dagger]

The classic Half-Life style arsenal where you hold all the weapons at once and each of them has a different situational use is my ideal shooter type but I’m cool with limited arsenals as well

[opaque sigil]

Fallout 4 also didn't have that much gun variety

[opaque sigil]

So like Doom

[proud dagger]

Far Cry games are generally pretty good at the second type

[cerulean sable]

NV: Kill these raider dudes/find a hidden location? heres a fucking unique advance gauss sniper rifle that takes 2x more cells to power but the crit damage is insane (and it has a custom texture/animation)

F4: Oh wow i killed a legendary deathclaw at level 3? heres an Irradiated Pool Club, which is just a pool club, but causes enemies to take radiation damage per hit

[proud dagger]

Basically yeah

[cerulean sable]

my gripe with BS infinite

i prefer the first 2 games where you have limited ammo but you can carry all weapons

[sweet bluff]

ultrakill?

[cerulean sable]

and theyre all very specialized

[opaque sigil]

Well bioshock infinite had enough weapons that having all of them at once would've been a bit much imo

[proud dagger]

Honestly I just don’t like RPG shooters that much, it just feels bad when the difference between a shit gun and the best gun is that one takes 40 shots to kill a dude and the other takes 3

[torpid fractal]

im patiently waiting for the next bioshock game

[opaque sigil]

That's fair

[proud dagger]

Haven’t played it, I’ve heard it’s good but don’t know much about it

[sweet bluff]

basically doom on crack if you’re into that

[opaque sigil]

But... Doom's already on crack

[proud dagger]

I might try it, I always preferred the more atmospheric and story-based shooters though, Half-Life is literally my favorite game series of all time

[cerulean sable]

i wish it couldve been like Burial At Sea

make it like you can carry one of every:

1 Sidearm type (Pistol/Revolver)
1 Close range type (SMG or shotgun)
1 Marksman type (Carbine or Sniper)
1 Heavy type (RPG or Grenade launcher)
including the fox weapons

[radiant wraith]

Throw coins in the air and shoot at them

[dusk badger]

or frying pans

[opaque sigil]

That would've worked ig

[torpid fractal]

i don't like ultrakill

i like a challenge, but when the challenge is just every single level i don't like it

[opaque sigil]

So fatigue's the issue?

[sweet bluff]

more

[sweet bluff]

even on lenient?

[torpid fractal]

theres difficulty settings in ultrakill?

[sweet bluff]

…broooooooooooooo

just

[torpid fractal]

thats either a new thing or it just isnt told to you

[sweet bluff]

it’s one of the first things you see

[torpid fractal]

i don't remember seeing any difficulty setting

[vestal spruce]

how is the TGA hope going

[heady jolt]

good

[frank sparrow]

getting clown custumes for all non believers

[heady jolt]

we're strong and we have backup plans now

[opaque sigil]

Way out of hand and on a course to crash and burn spectacularly if it isn't realized

[steady raven]

Morale is reluctantly rising

[mystic pewter]

Mild

[sweet bluff]

during the initial “calibration” settings

[vestal spruce]

well thats been a trend for the entire past few years. seems like they always got back up on their feet

[radiant wraith]

"The fire of hope burns bright in the hearts of all the cultists (...)" - Book of Waiting 1:5

[mystic pewter]

What backup plans

[cerulean sable]

kinda offtopic but i love small tidbits of game dev stuff like why theres no sniper rifle in Half Life 2

they apparently splitted the concept of a sniper rifle into two:

• Magnum (short range, hitscan)
• Crossbow (long range, travel time)

that way if you wanna deal sniper like damage at long range, you gotta account for travel time, whereas you can get more instanteous high damage but at the cost of rare ammo via the magnum

[cerulean sable]

Exactly

[opaque sigil]

I should replay hl2

[cerulean sable]

if you do try MMOD

[opaque sigil]

What's mmod?

[heady jolt]

if no silksong at tga hope for silksong at december direct if no silksong there hope for blogpost in december

[cerulean sable]

it makes the gunplay way better by actually modernizing the animations

[opaque sigil]

Nice

[vestal spruce]

and then february

the cursed month for this discord channel.

[opaque sigil]

Is it just on the steam workshop

[coarse leaf]

GM

[sweet bluff]

the FIRST THING YOU SEE on pressing “continue”
(“Casual Easy” and “Casual Hard” has been turned into “Harmless” and “Lenient” and are now accessible)

[cerulean sable]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8yHLuSCwVo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgbeWnPq3ng

compare them

[sweet bluff]

it’s also brought up on the initial calibration
ima just find it in markipliers video wait

[waxen agate]

Ok

[coarse leaf]

wha t up

[waxen agate]

I purposely stayed out of here for a month or even 2 idk at this point

Pls tell me something interesting has happened

[radiant wraith]

Nice, just in time to join a cult

[waxen agate]

Since I’ve been gone

[vestal spruce]

well thats my monthly checkin

[radiant wraith]

Not really any news

[vestal spruce]

see yall in Jan. when yall have a new theory.

[radiant wraith]

See you then

[lone lichen]

ultrakill has a few other modifiers beyond difficulty settings but i don't remember the specifics

also using them means you don't get a rank on stage completion

[charred pulsar]

See ya Doc

[sweet bluff]

you can turn on aim assist and enemy outlines in the “minor assists” in settings

if you turn those on it still counts as completion

you can also turn major assists in the settings (Damage Taken, Game Speed, etc) and if you turn those on and complete a level the rank has a blue background so very spooky >:(

[lone lichen]

wasn't aware, last i checked was major assists = no rank at all
makes sense to let players access ||prime sanctums|| though

[sweet bluff]

also yes you can have full screen aim assist

it basically removes your ability to hit coins though

[lone lichen]

never used the assists but that's just me being a sweaty tryhard

||violent p-1|]

ok thanks fat fingers very cool

[sweet bluff]

i’ll confess: i used major assists during 0-S
i think you know why

[lone lichen]

i never actually did 0-s but yeah

[primal oriole]

good thing it will be realized then

[lone lichen]

but what i was gonna say was ||violent p-1 took me almost 50 attempts||

[sweet bluff]

i never fought pinos i can’t be bothered to get pranksill get back into it during wrath

[lone lichen]

||flesh prison|| isn't too bad but ||pinos|| is crazy

but when you go back and fight a boss like gabe after that it's like going back to the black egg after doing p5

[mystic pewter]

Will there be a december direct

[opaque sigil]

afaik there isn't one announced

You can google it yourself to verify if you want

[frank sparrow]

Graig announced it and he has never lied to us /j

[opaque sigil]

Double negative

Can't compound /s and /j, they cancel out

[digital junco]

good

[iron spear]

Great

[mystic pewter]

Also why would they not show it at TGA but rather opt for the big reveal at a smaller event

[opaque sigil]

More focused audience and/or it was a joke

[digital junco]

and so rumor 9,567 is born

[copper knot]

hey free nitor can yuo give me free nitro i am ur biggest fan

[radiant wraith]

Hey Graig, want to join TGA cult?

[copper knot]

im 7

[opaque sigil]

Said the nitro booster

[iron spear]

Last time I joined a cult it didn't end well

[copper knot]

suht up

[radiant wraith]

You miss out then

The invitation remains anyways

[languid linden]

Sorry did we say cult? We meant uhhh group of friendship and happiness

[serene chasm]

We have free healthcare and a 401k

[opaque sigil]

I will not suht up

[primal oriole]

DIRECT NINTENDO DIRECTly after his entire life was destroyed guys don't joke about this

[proud dagger]

Didn’t end well for you or the other members?

[copper knot]

grrr

[opaque sigil]

[iron spear]

So do i

[serene chasm]

damn. I forgot thats how we get Leth to join

[languid linden]

Okay but consider this: We can upgrade you to a 402k that's not a thing right?

[radiant wraith]

We have geo

Lots of geo

[frank sparrow]

we have gullible people for you to troll

[languid linden]

How was that mistyped as }

[iron spear]

Who actually believes it will be at TGA?

[radiant wraith]

I'm not sure what I believe

[sweet bluff]

gabe is “can you slide in one direction” ffs he’s the easiest boss

[copper knot]

ur mom

[fiery coral]

Graig why must you ask this

[analog forge]

Why must you hurt us so

[fiery coral]

Why must you tease us so

[primal oriole]

everyone

[sweet bluff]

me

[steady raven]

I kind of do but the way you phrased that kind of dampens my spirits

[languid linden]

I think there's a higher chance than the nintendo directs and stuff, but I don't think its very likely

[fathom peak]

im not putting any expectations in tga
if it's there, cool
if it's not, meh wouldnt be surprised

[radiant wraith]

I certainly wouldn't bet on it being at TGA

[mystic pewter]

Me? Can't tell if this is confirms or deconfirms or neither

[cerulean sable]

We refuse to accept nothing as an answer

[grim forge]

I believe it will either be there or have something announced this month

[iron spear]

Me either

[radiant wraith]

Betting is bad anyways

it's nice to hope though

[cerulean sable]

Well keep moving the date anyway

[torpid fractal]

screen shotting this for thursday

[proud vale]

GRAIGGG you’re joining the cult right

[mystic pewter]

Wow you're that confident

[primal oriole]

no guys graig cant bet on it legally speaking nothing he says matters

[grim forge]

I can't tell if this is a deconfirm

[sweet bluff]

it’s 50/50 happens or doesn’t happen that’s how statistics work right

[fiery coral]

I hereby officially recruit Graig into the TGA Cult

[proud vale]

Thanks Unique, someone had to

[cerulean sable]

Were all fucking dead men walking why are yall already giving up

[fiery coral]

There you go, Graig!

[cerulean sable]

Graig or not were still pushing for TGA

[split tide]

it's actually 100/0; there must be a true result

[frank sparrow]

SILKSONG WILL BE AT TGA

[mystic pewter]

True!

[radiant wraith]

I think I speak for all the cult when I say we'd be honored to have a red name Among Us

[steady raven]

Is graig an actual member of TC? This might be a stupid question but he has the flair

[serene chasm]

TGA, more like SSGA

[fiery coral]

Yes

Playtester

[cerulean sable]

Lead Playtester

[sweet bluff]

shut

[proud vale]

Unless Leth deconfirms, I’m staying true to the hype

[languid linden]

He's the lead pl-damn you mods

[serene chasm]

And Gardener

[mystic pewter]

Red (name) is sus! (Cannot be trusted)

[fiery coral]

If Graig asks about his nickname uhh tell him it was one of the mods who'll remain anonymous

[radiant wraith]

What, wouldn't you like for Graig to be Among Us cultists

[proud dagger]

Smh insider trading

[cerulean sable]

[fiery coral]

More like two days

People who pick portal gun are idiots. It can only be used on moon rocks

[sweet bluff]

don’t forget the pure nail from the hit indie game dead cells

[fiery coral]

Stygius and Coronacht best

[high hedge]

Just shoot at the moon

[analog forge]

Wow, good going, you can place portals on exactly the moon

[opaque sigil]

Aspect of Zeus pretty good too tho

[analog forge]

Whoopdidoo

[fiery coral]

Just get moon rocks to Earth 🥴

[fathom peak]

[analog forge]

Yeah because you can afford moonrocks

[fiery coral]

If Cave Johnson can do it, so can you

[gilded adder]

Gunfire Reborn has some sick guns.

[analog forge]

Cave johnson owned a qhole ass company

[fiery coral]

Seventy million dollars' worth 😎

[cerulean sable]

GR is pretty good

[high hedge]

I’m pretty sure the material portal walls are made of are separate from the moon powder fused paint

[cerulean sable]

they even stole Zarya's gun

[cunning geode]

👹

[formal beacon]

the flea guys give perishables right, from the riddles?

[fiery coral]

[gilded adder]

I don't own it, sadly. But I've been watching streamers play it and it looks awesome.

[cerulean sable]

bring ur ammo im not providing

[cunning geode]

sure

[cerulean sable]

ahh aight aight

[formal beacon]

and perishables might be food, theoretically we could get pickles in silksong

[steady raven]

I shouldn't have rushed to grab the grenade. I would have picked something way cooler if I had waited a little longer

[fiery coral]

Wombat will find ammo packs scattered around

Doesn't need to bring any

[serene chasm]

Wombat will chainsaw his enemies for ammo

[cunning geode]

When I do eventually get it, hopefully, we should definitely do some co-op if you're down.

[primal oriole]

may 29 was the nintendo upcoming games thing right?

[steady raven]

We talked about guns for a while but slowly the topic shifted back to Silksong

[formal beacon]

no we need to talk about guns IN silksong

[serene chasm]

I want a mission where Hornet and Garmond have to sneak through a highly haunted area to assassinate a high ranking member of the Citadel Caste

[formal beacon]

that would be unironically pretty cool

[fiery coral]

Detected? Instant fail

[gilded adder]

I don't think Garmond and Zaza seem cut out for spy missions.

[fiery coral]

DESYNCHRONISED

[formal beacon]

one thing thats really high on my silksong wishlist is that that quests are repeatable

[serene chasm]

why. we dont want toddquests in SS

[cerulean sable]

Garmond: "Hornet, we could go through this stealthily and avoid taking any unnecessary attention, so carry only what you need"

Hornet "Understood"

Also Hornet:

[torpid fractal]

garmond and hornet do the stealth part and zaza gets a piggy back

[formal beacon]

hornet loves bombs

[fiery coral]

Get an achievement for doing the stealth quest with a rocket launcher

[trim estuary]

T e s s

[still owl]

[still owl]

[trim estuary]

I think she’s a bug actually

[trim estuary]

[mystic pewter]

What kind of game do you guys think fearless fox will be

[still owl]

top down zelda 1 like

[trim estuary]

When the fox is fearless

[coarse leaf]

yo i wanna try a quiz dont look it up

how many days has it been since silksong has been announced

i wanna see who can guess it first

[heady jolt]

probably 1030 smth

wait no thats way off

[coarse leaf]

wrong

[heady jolt]

definitely less than that probably 1010-1020 range

[coarse leaf]

wrong

[torpid fractal]

isn't it in like the 500 range

[coarse leaf]

W R O N G

[torpid fractal]

so early 600

[heady jolt]

it was 1000 days since silksong was announced sometime last month

[coarse leaf]

its 1027

[heady jolt]

i was close

[coarse leaf]

you were off by 3 on your first guess

[stoic path]

I wonder how big Silksong will be in comparison to HK

[heady jolt]

probably way larger

[primal oriole]

I'd say it's probably like 1.25x bigger but hard to say

[trim estuary]

1030 around

[heady jolt]

.

[trim estuary]

We had a small celebration on day 1000

[stoic path]

The enemies in Silksong looks kinda fun

Like, they all have different mechanics and stuff

[coarse leaf]

hornet looks fun to control

[mystic pewter]

I'm gonna take a big bet and say 1.5x

[primal oriole]

well it depends exactly what you mean

[mystic pewter]

Overall scope

[primal oriole]

I think SS will have way more unique enemies

but world size isn't going to be that much bigger (accounting for the general scale increase)

[mystic pewter]

Content excluding post-launch

[mystic pewter]

Well hornet is larger and faster, and we've already seen that taken into account in the deep docks' and moss grotto's level design so I think the world will be considerably larger in size. I'm not sure about areas though.

[coarse leaf]

didnt they actually confirm its the same size as HK

it requires the same amount of gigabytes according to stream

[scenic coral]

TGA soon

[mystic pewter]

Wait a minute guys
Geoff keighley basically confirmed a sonic announcement at tga after someone asked about it
Can someone ask about hollow knight in his replies

[primal oriole]

someone did and he liked the message (I think that was probably fake though lmao)

[mystic pewter]

Nah I don't think the instagram like was fake

Thats the best evidence we got

[scenic coral]

the instagram one was real

[cerulean sable]

yeah the account itself was verified

and it was legit the only few things they liked

[mystic pewter]

Also have there been any more rumors on the playstation experience event? Just remembered it was December and I thought it was happening this month

[mystic pewter]

If silksong's not at TGA that like will become the greatest mystery in gaming

[cerulean sable]

or theyre just working on the game and would rather not get bothered about it

[mystic pewter]

I meant that if silksong never shows, what was the point of the official instagram liking that comment?

[cerulean sable]

hype i guess

iirc there was a case of them liking comments to some games that didnt even show up (it wasnt TGA)

[scenic coral]

or they were trolling

[primal oriole]

an intern misclicked

[cerulean sable]

more of an user engagement/interaction thing

thats just my guess

[proud vale]

How are my fellow believers

[coarse leaf]

good

praise TGA (and grimmchild too he's adorable)

[proud vale]

Praise the TGA

Can’t believe it’s in like 3 days

[fiery coral]

less than 48 hours

[coarse leaf]

are you stupid

[fiery coral]

but why

[coarse leaf]

its in 72 hours dumbass

[fiery coral]

it's on December 9th, no?

[coarse leaf]

thats 2 days and 20 away

[primal oriole]

it's not, right

[silver oak]

zotepog?

Thanks, I hate

[coarse leaf]

wait you're a mod

[silver oak]

zoggers
there it is

[silver oak]

no, really?

Why didn't you tell me Unique

[fiery coral]

where on earth is that link that tells you when TGA is in your timezone

[fiery coral]

uhhhh

[silver oak]

what timezone are you

[fiery coral]

GMT+5:30

[untold inlet]

they have all the dates on their website now

[mystic pewter]

Pst its at 4 something pm

[heady jolt]

5pm pst

[silver oak]

It would be 6:30 am for you unique

[untold inlet]

https://thegameawards.com/watch

they have a cool lil interactive map on this page

[silver oak]

time to wake up early

[untold inlet]

a bit jealous of eurogang tbh, i'll def be watching live just cause of the hype but part of me just wishes i could go to sleep and wake up knowing whether it happened

[silver oak]

Personally if I missed Silksong news (if it happens) I would be so mad

[reef scarab]

When it happens, no doubt!

[fiery coral]

me confused, is the 1 AM GMT for December 10th or are the 8 PM ET and PT for December 8th

timezones are so weird

[untold inlet]

1 am gmt dec 10

[fiery coral]

so 6:30 to 10:30 it is

[primal oriole]

what that’s so dumb

[silver oak]

Ye the first dates are in the ninth

[fiery coral]

it's one day later than I thought it'd be

[untold inlet]

do y'all think the ss announcement would be at the preshow (starting like 7:30ish et) or would it be in the actual show

[fiery coral]

wai

actual show, surely

[untold inlet]

cause i might be eating dinner during the preshow

[silver oak]

I think it'd be in the full show

[coarse leaf]

preshow happened already i think

[untold inlet]

if i came back from dinner to see i'd missed the announcement i'd become jokerfied

[coarse leaf]

idk i got that from a friend i have no idea

[fiery coral]

given I usually wake up around 7:30 I shouldn't miss too much

[silver oak]

🃏

[coarse leaf]

how long is the game awards

[reef scarab]

Silksong will be a surprise game of the year candidate and instantly win

[silver oak]

it's the anti 🤡

[silver oak]

When people spam just spam 🃏 back

[fiery coral]

cool it with the aggression next time by the way 🥴

[coarse leaf]

im sorry

[reef scarab]

I’m ignoring my homework to watch this I hope it appears

[fiery coral]

always the Grimms

[coarse leaf]

i have never attacked anyone with personal intention

[fiery coral]

worth it

[untold inlet]

same

[fiery coral]

unless the deadline is the next day

or that very day

[untold inlet]

probably 90 min - 2 hrs

[reef scarab]

You can’t be right forever, it’s gotta show up somewhere someday

[coarse leaf]

lol im missing first half of the show

[heady jolt]

its gonna be 3 hours

[silver oak]

But is it really gonna happen here?

....
Yes.

[fiery coral]

[reef scarab]

I can feeeeel it

[heady jolt]

same

[silver oak]

If you don't believe why are you watching

Checkmate communists

[coarse leaf]

because im a diehard lifelong nintendo fan

[reef scarab]

vibeo gams

[hollow sedge]

geoff is teasing some games on twitter for the game awards

[coarse leaf]

and i want metroid dread to win GOTY

[silver oak]

Silly chat, don't you know silksong is the only video game to release in 35 years?

[charred pulsar]

It Takes Two for GOTY

[reef scarab]

I would’ve bought dread if it was more than ten hours

[coarse leaf]

also i want silksong too

[silver oak]

The last one was Mario in 1983

[coarse leaf]

2022 GOTY is going to be wild af

[silver oak]

I only got to play the first 2 areas of that one but from what me and my friend played it was awesome

[reef scarab]

Silksong wins all categories

[coarse leaf]

do you think silksong has a chance at being a nominee in GOTY

[silver oak]

No

Considering the game's not out yet

[primal oriole]

it’s not listed in most anticipated, we need to be more loud and annoying

[reef scarab]

Honestly this show is the PERFECT time to give SS recognition, what better time to announce the date than now

[coarse leaf]

So the nominees are Deathloop,It Takes Two, Metroid Dread, Psychonauts 2, Rachet and Clank, and RE:Village
