I want to talk to you

Wrong maggot emote

[split tide]

I have lots of texts

[rough cedar]

@serene chasm i mean i wann talk to you

[split tide]

Sure they’re all from scammers, but that counts right

[digital glen]

There a lot of single moms in my are wanting to text me

[silver oak]

Me when scammers say I have an offer on my house when I don’t own a house

[grim forge]

That's a free house coming with the scam

[digital glen]

I love when sites take my city and put then in the scam texts, because i live in brazil so its so out of place

"There are single moms in porto alegre wanting you"

[tight linden]

i hate even more that this fundraiser is in the near you section for me

[serene chasm]

Free SS! Click here ww.freesiIks0ng.ru

[brisk bolt]

did they make that art?

[silver oak]

There it is

[silver oak]

I don’t think so

[cerulean sable]

obligatory a quick slash like tool should be either limited or removed in SS

or any "50%+ to DPS for some notch points"

that is all

[analog forge]

Yeah i doubt theyll do that again

Unless its like a double slot item

Or even a triple slot

[cerulean sable]

or at least a drawback to it

[analog forge]

"You must use this specific crest for quick slash uwu"

[cerulean sable]

like i dunno, +30% attack speed but your bank interest goes to 0% until you remove it

gotta hit em where it hurts

[analog forge]

Interest? 👀

I get a penny of interest per month uwu

[cerulean sable]

+50 rosaries per 30 minutes

[gray lance]

Yeah, as fun as it is to get a flat damage increase, it straight up becomes the best option in most cases unless other stuff is as broken.

[coarse leaf]

Hollow Knight RPG tho

[cerulean sable]

and tbf i am an advocate of "instead of putting other stuff down, make them fun to begin with"

[cunning geode]

instead of a quick slash give Hornet combos with motion inputs 👹

[gray lance]

Doesn't help that a lot of people only like using their nail because soul is used for both healing and spells

[coarse leaf]

Give Hornet combat with combos

[gray lance]

Someone from the Smash community just felt that in the air and had a breakdown

[bleak scarab]

yooo

[coarse leaf]

It's an old edit, don't call it good
I'll redo it tomorrow tho

[cerulean sable]

Hallownest's Fury
"Do a strong forward slashs before doing a double jab, then uppercut, before finishing it with a strong spin slash"

Move Forward + Slash
Neutral Slash
Neutral Slash
Up Slash
Down Slash

OPTIONAL:
Press backwards twice to do a double cartwheel dodge

OPTIONAL:
After the cartwheel dodge, press forward slash to do a jab and you can repeat the combo afterwards

[bleak scarab]

Its good
so rebellious I know call the mods

[gray lance]

"Yeah so the best combo against Radiance 2.0 is a downward-angled quarter-circle spin into a jablock in the corner. Uppers are really good and if you're into grappling you can basically stunlock the boss"

[coarse leaf]

This seems like a fighting game combo

[stoic path]

Hornet for Mortal Kombat

[coarse leaf]

Ok, so, a bad idea:

"Combat Master

• Allows Hornet to do combos, the more you hit the enemy without taking a hit from the enemy, the strength of your attacks grow by 1"

[cerulean sable]

"CRAZIEST HOLLOW KNIGHT COMBOS??? [SHERMA NG+7 NO DAMAGE] [240HP THEORETICAL DPS] (NEW META???)"

[gray lance]

BRO JUST DO THE TAS STRATS AND IT'S AN EASY ONE PHASE
WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S TOO HARD YOU SCRUB

[grim forge]

Devil may cry combo bar

[silver oak]

ZAMN

[cerulean sable]

wait fuck forgot to add the healthbar and damage numbers

[gray lance]

Perfect for my clickbait youtube thumbnail

[bleak scarab]

Bro this is fake needs red arrows pointing at the obvious smh

[cerulean sable]

and added effects

[bleak scarab]

Obviously

[silver oak]

Fr tho, I can’t wait to watch all the ss playthroughs and reviews after I’m done with the game

[coarse leaf]

You should put an among us character in there just for the charm

[silver oak]

Seeing people be as excited for a thing as I am is an awesome experience

[coarse leaf]

Yeah

[hollow sedge]

im mostly excited for silk soul mode

i hope theres another mode as well, they could do alot

[cerulean sable]

"Hi guys, welcome back to the channel, today i am gonna show you THE. MOST. INSANE. HOLLOW KNIGHT. combo attacks that will make the game SUPER easy"

"Silksong is notoriously difficult and demands super high reflexes, but sometimes you dont have to make it too hard for you. These combos can definitely carry you which I will show you in a bit, and can definitely be done with a couple of practice. Like a lot of things all you need is practice, and just like Hollow Knight boss fights, practice can definitely go a long way and not just in video games, but also in real life activities like cooking or playing instruments. For those however I can definitely make it easier with Skillshare, Skillshare is a platform online that..."

[cerulean sable]

The bad ending
"Silksong is a good game, but not just a good Hollow Knight game"

[final roost]

Interesting theory from someone who's been waiting since the stretch goal was reached, what are the odds that Silksong was cancelled and Team Cherry doesn't want us to know, fearing we'll string them up for fraud when we find out?

[grim forge]

Extremely low

[cerulean sable]

"Why Silksong doesnt live up to Hollow Knight"
"How to not make a sequel. [Hollow Knight Silksong review]"
"What went wrong with Silksong???"

[grim forge]

Hollow Knight: Silksong - Wha Happun?

[final roost]

If it's cancelled, and I had my doubts on tis since August, I want them all arrested.

[cerulean sable]

I have another theory maybe we should realize a 3 man indie game isnt gonna churn out a game that just has 2.5 years worth of full dev especially with how vocally TC has stated that the lack of budget restrictions means they can go apeshit with the game

[silver oak]

[final roost]

"The Tragedy of Will and Ari"

[serene chasm]

SS is going to be fucking huge

[cerulean sable]

also remember, Leth egged them for a blogpost, and even APWOT said theyre mostly away from the hype of the internet while they make the game

[coarse leaf]

And I love this fact

[fiery coral]

TC's like nah they can live without updates

smash cut to the fandom living without updates

[cerulean sable]

im not a fan of full 0 silence either but if i were there positions i dont wanna get pressured by randos either

[coarse leaf]

Honestly, if TC gives us a masterpiece, I'd say it was worth it them not giving any news to us

[silver oak]

I would guess the closest connection to the fanbase they have would be through Leth and Graig

[analog forge]

i like the idea that people know what makes a good hk game after just one title

[silver oak]

Silksong is not Hollow Knight

Therefore, it’s not a good Hollow Knight game

[ocean mulch]

"If you ever get stuck in Silksong be sure to watch my playthrough but while you do that make sure that you're safe on the internet. That's why we're going to talk about our sponsor, somerandom vpn"

[unique nexus]

How big silksong file size would be

[serene chasm]

100GB

[ocean mulch]

How big is HK

[unique nexus]

8GB

[heady jolt]

8 great bri'ains?

[cerulean sable]

ok real talk probably around 25%-35% larger than HK

which is around 9GB iirc

so maybe around 12~ average IMO

mostly because of textures

[sleek hearth]

@odd ploverm cherry where spilk spong

[cerulean sable]

did you literally just ping a rando

[silver oak]

tea

[sleek hearth]

i didnt mean to lmfao

[serene chasm]

This game is sexy

[tall hinge]

no u

[vestal wagon]

The game will literally be red dead redemption 3

[silver oak]

Parallax

[serene chasm]

All those root stalactites probably move on their own

[cunning geode]

yeah, multiple background layers of stalactites

[bleak scarab]

hm dunno seems unpromising

[serene chasm]

its stalactites all the way down

[frank sparrow]

death

[ocean mulch]

I'll never forget that edge messed up the aspect ratio

[serene chasm]

Thank you for pointing it out. Seriously I have no idea why I thought nothing of it

[ocean mulch]

I always felt the screenshots looked a bit odd

[serene chasm]

we have to reanalyze them all over.

[ocean mulch]

[silver oak]

SEXY BOYYYYYYY

[cerulean sable]

texture diff

[jade canopy]

Okay so do you want to hear a crackpot theory ?
You remember David P right ?

[ocean mulch]

Wow taco you're so smart I never noticed that amazing work

[jade canopy]

Well do you know who else is named David P that has any kind of link toward hk ?
David Peacock, the guy who made the piano collection
What does this mean ? Idk I just found it funny

[ocean mulch]

Who's David P

[twilit grotto]

"Hornet's movement mechanics are clunky as her momentum makes dodging more difficult, the ledge grabs are annoying when platforming, and aerial combat is practically impossible. You hardly ever get to use most of the spells and weapons from the Forge Daughter's in actual boss fights due to the high charge up time. On top of that, the map is so confusingly large that it's guaranteed that you'll be backtracking for hours before getting to the next area or meet up with the map maker. Hollow Knight Silksong, while not exactly like Hollow Knight, is so bloated in terms of the amounts of areas and mechanics stuffed into the game that it's almost suffocating to play."

[jade canopy]

It was the guy who supposedly worked with tc and kept posting screenshot in here that where just, well known images

[ocean mulch]

[cerulean sable]

Ok and... i just wanted to fawn the improvements of Aris art down the year?

im not stating the obvious here bro

[jade canopy]

I feel like I have seen that kind of message a thousand time, good job on that one

[twilit grotto]

"And on top of that, they also put in a quest system with certain missions that are essential to complete in order to progress the game with rewards that are obscure until the quests are completed. For new comers and completionists alike, it may take a while before figuring out the requirements to ascend further up in Pharloom."

9/10

• IGN

[jade canopy]

Still 9/10

[twilit grotto]

Man I had that problem with the first game as a person who's never played metroidvanias and platformers my entire life. I didn't know that downward slash was a thing. So I backtracked throughout the entire map thinking there was another way into the fungal wastes when I could've pogo'd the mushrooms.

[jade canopy]

Those websites rating are always just

So here are a few problem with game, it a buggy mess, it is missing those 20 functions, the multiplayer is a lag fest, so our rating is 17/20 great game should totally buy

[twilit grotto]

Written by: A person who totally was not bribed by EA and Ubisoft

[jade canopy]

Like what grade did call of duty vanguard get ?

[ocean mulch]

Elementary school

[twilit grotto]

7/10 IGN

[jade canopy]

WTF is this

Like they are praising the zombies mod while everyone else is saying that it’s basically a beta

It’s from meta critics

[dense cove]

i did this too i had to look up how to get past that area lmao

[twilit grotto]

I thought it was going to be like Mario where I just need to time my jump with the mushroom, so I spent like an hour doing that

[silver oak]

It took me a long time to figure out mushrooms as well

That’s the only part of the game that I felt actually stuck on, especially since that’s the only way to get to claw

[twilit grotto]

The rest of the game played alright. Although I got to the city of tears and then fought Soul Master with no nail upgrade and only vengeful spirit.

That took me 2-3 days

[dense cove]

same. i was hella bad at using spells too so i kinda just relied on using my nail which was bad

[twilit grotto]

yeaaah

[dense cove]

also i tried to spell spam uummuu without realizing it was only vunerable when quirrel beat its ass and died a bunch trying unsuccessfully to do that LMAO

[twilit grotto]

I bought all 80 eggs from Tuk and spent hours grinding for geo thinking that I would need them in case Tuk gets infected and I couldn’t recover my shade from Jiji

[jade canopy]

Really ? That’s super cursed

Like I use to think of myself as the guy who keeps all consumables throughout their playthrough

But I think I found worst than me here

[twilit grotto]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/283680756159741953/556608666175012874/unknown.png

Huh, I guess I only bought 70. Either that, or I bought the max amount and used up 10

[twilit grotto]

tfw Tuk actually gets infected, but only in steel soul

[tight linden]

i think the art direction in the bar room from the edge shows how good aris art is

[cerulean sable]

Bar areas are my fav especially on Stalker

[tight linden]

im not stalking you dont accuse me of that

does any place have the high quality images from edge

what was posted earlier is like the highest ive seen it

[cerulean sable]

makes it even more cozy when you just risked your ass in a irradiated and diseased Chernobyl landscape, almost dying to either hazards, full blown radiation storms, mutants or bandits because bars (regardless of your faction) are essentially a neutral safe zone

seroiusly i love the brownish lighting, it feels very warm in contrast to how the game uses dark colours for the environment

like its more alive BUT its not exactly colorful sunshine overblow artstyle either, its dark but warm and fuzzy

[serene chasm]

I made a thing

[cerulean sable]

You are now arriving:
Payload_Pharloom

[twilit grotto]

Can we ride the green thing?

[tight linden]

one criticsm

its all npcs besides i think the green thing

im pretty sure thats an enemy since we see two of them

[analog forge]

hornet isnt an npc

[tight linden]

you understand what im saying

[twilit grotto]

she is until Silksong comes out

[analog forge]

shes an npc in silksong too

[tight linden]

@cerulean sable any answer on this

[cerulean sable]

Curly has them

[tight linden]

wait

oh shit youre right in conflated that with you

[serene chasm]

I kinda chose npcs cause I thought it would the easiest theme to go with.

[tight linden]

yeah that makes sense

[serene chasm]

What do I have?

[tight linden]

high quality images of the edge stuff

at least the highest ive seen

[cerulean sable]

yeah rendering the supposed down slash tutorial useless

[tight linden]

lmao i didnt actually know that

i down slashed there

[cerulean sable]

kinda similar to why only the area around Mawlek has the down direction tutorial, apparently Mawlek was supposed to be encountered in King's Pass

[warm bone]

what

[cerulean sable]

but they shifted that room to Crossroads instead

[twilit grotto]

welp, that would've been helpful

[serene chasm]

edge screenshots

[warm bone]

oh

[tight linden]

i interpreted the thing in kings pass with the charm being the tutorial and just being poor as 90% of players saw that and thought (i need dash)

[ocean mulch]

Downslash tutorial turned into fungal wastes lmao

[analog forge]

I've always considered the grub with the spikes leading to it in the stair pattern to be the real downslash tutorial tbh.
It basically says "hey, dummy, you can do something with spikes uwu"

[cerulean sable]

i just googled it when i got stucked to mushrooms

[ocean mulch]

The grub room is made in such a way that you cannot think of any ability you might get in the future that could help

[analog forge]

yup

its laid out in such a way that "yeah, double jump would get me up there, but that doesnt explain all the spikes"

[tight linden]

just spent a while just mesmerized by the edge images again

[ocean mulch]

Hi phrax

[ocean mulch]

You mean the images which edge took and changed the aspect ratio

[tight linden]

you mean i hate your name

[ocean mulch]

Wow phrax why do you hate descending dark it's in your username

[tight linden]

yeah descending dark and December division

[ocean mulch]

And desolate dive too?

[tight linden]

this place is seriously incredible

[ocean mulch]

It is

[tight linden]

just the worst

[fleet temple]

It's probably the area I'm most excited for

[ocean mulch]

I'm most excited for greymoor
That's my favorite area currently

[twilit grotto]

I don't know how, but I made it half way of the path towards the Sheo in greenpath without crystal heart or monarch wings before dying and permanently losing my shade, which had 800 geo.

[serene chasm]

Im convinced there wont be an ugly area in SS. Even the more drab areas look amazing

[ocean mulch]

800 geo isn't much

[tight linden]

true!

[ocean mulch]

HK doesn't have ugly areas either

[serene chasm]

touche

[tight linden]

map prediction ive posted before just using current knowledge

[cerulean sable]

corals positioning is the one i wanna know the most

[tight linden]

its so out there yeah

[cerulean sable]

like in an environment, wouldnt it make sense if it was lower than Grotto

[tight linden]

yeah

[cunning geode]

Hornet has to swim underwater to discover it 👹

[ocean mulch]

Well to the left of coral is that vault/judge looking guy and his platform

[cerulean sable]

but at the same time, we cant put it at the lower right because were close to sure Deep Docks is gonna be there with the orientation

[tight linden]

but with the game being aboue ascending and coral forest seeming to be mid gameish it would make the most sense to be up

[cerulean sable]

And i also think corals will be connected to an even lower parts leading to the wharf area

[ocean mulch]

And the water drops down to moss grotto

[tight linden]

deep docks makes the most sense being the bottom currently

[cerulean sable]

yeah

and Greymoor might be the centermost

[ocean mulch]

After deep docks is the weird ant forest

[cunning geode]

or at least adjacent to

[tight linden]

somewhere near the deep docks would be ants yeah

[ocean mulch]

And in that ant forest is huntress

[tight linden]

i believe the ants are above the lava forest and deep docks

[ocean mulch]

I saw a branch from it in her gif

The ant forest seems to be right after Lace

[tight linden]

her room in memory seems to be similar to the burned ant npc

[cunning geode]

Burned ant?

[tight linden]

laces thing feels like a tease, like thats the furthest the plants crawl then we later get to explore that area (not much later)

[ocean mulch]

Oh yeah burnt makes sense

It's the two color ant dude

[tight linden]

the white spots on the ant made me think burn scars

its also all on one side of em

[cunning geode]

i see

[cerulean sable]

if we infer that Deep Docks will be following the Forest of Bones theme, which was originally gonna house ants, i think right most DD will lead to the Ant area, ESPECIALLY since Ants seems to have a bone theme with them too

[tight linden]

yeah

[ocean mulch]

Ants are more north

[tight linden]

since they always seem to be higher than the lava i think they are higher up by a bit

[cerulean sable]

probably north-eastish of Deep Docks

[ocean mulch]

And before their actual home is the forest

[tight linden]

yee

[ocean mulch]

Lace's arena has both lava particles and the orange spores we see with the burned ant guy

[frank acorn]

guys please stop speculating and have patience

[tight linden]

was about to mention the orange stuff yeah

[cerulean sable]

there could be an inbetween transition yeah, and that could be the "no Pharloomian cunts allowed from this point" ala no man's land

[ocean mulch]

The border might just be the songshrine

[hearty tendon]

Hornet is confirmed in silksong, santa told me

[tight linden]

you can see orange embers or whatever

[frank acorn]

stopit

[cunning geode]

I also see a lovely ant

[ocean mulch]

It's interesting how the leaves look on the new art style

[hearty tendon]

Yoo new screenshot ?

[ocean mulch]

They're the same as moss grotto spores but orange

[frank acorn]

i'm leaving this channel

[cerulean sable]

Grotto to the left and Bonebottom to the... bottom sounds like its reasonable

[tight linden]

moss lichen area again i assume

[cerulean sable]

good because your not adding anything anyway

[cunning geode]

Is this jape

[hearty tendon]

Never seen those

[cunning geode]

almost a year old now

[ocean mulch]

I'm getting too hyped again it's alright though it'll go away in like ten minutes

[hearty tendon]

The verg magazine screenshot ?

[cunning geode]

Edge

[hearty tendon]

Bruh

[tight linden]

ive made the theory before but im sticking with it that moss grotto and this other plant area were burned by lava just like the forest of bones and they are just undergoing the stages of succession, which would begin with moss and lichen on barren rock then develop basic grasses next. Seems very fitting

[ocean mulch]

I mean it most likely won't get confirmed

But it sounds alright

[hearty tendon]

If it did got confirmed just remember she have the privilege of being right

[tight linden]

would explain a whole area of moss in a super easy and based on reality way

[ocean mulch]

The vegetation in lace's arena and that other deep docks room still has me confused and concerned

It's a fire hazard

[cerulean sable]

seriously im gonna fawn over the grass again

[tight linden]

i swear theyll pull the uh oh, burned area?!?!?!?! thing like at least once in some way

[cerulean sable]

the darker grass color is so lush

[tight linden]

i fucking love the dark green grass yeah

[hearty tendon]

That's how lore works

[ocean mulch]

It's interesting to see leaves in a hollow knight game without glowing berries

[cerulean sable]

Greenpath is cool and all but the saturated light greens + dark purples got tiring after a bit
kinda like how Darkroot Garden got grating for me with it being just black+super dark green grass

what helps with the screenshot is the warm orangish hue contrasting with the dark green

[tight linden]

yeee

[cunning geode]

They can use oranges now

[ocean mulch]

No infection

[cunning geode]

considering… certain orange things in hollow knight making that difficult

Ye

[tight linden]

i think with the bells im right in some way, with the swamp on the left leading to a bell well, leading to the bell village, leading to another bell well than the greymoor bell wall

[restive garden]

Fleas are the bees who never aim to please

[twilit grotto]

I wonder if the entire area of Pharloom is on some sort of dormant volcano. You have a lush green area on the outer areas followed by lava in the central region. And as you go upwards you have facilities that are powered by the hot coals and steam collected from the region below.

[tight linden]

that theory has been around for a long time yeah

[ocean mulch]

Can't wait for people to start making radiance theories in silksong

[restive garden]

They will try to shank your knees because they transcend the need unlike the bees

[cerulean sable]

the color choice just makes it less "bland" and desaturated

[tight linden]

the existance of the citadel wall gives it more fire to the flame lets be real

[ocean mulch]

Greenpath is cute

[restive garden]

let the light hoe stay down

[cerulean sable]

for what its worth, yes HK having a lot of blues makes sense for the game, but i get i kinda understand the idea that they can kinda be samey

[ocean mulch]

Taco did you see what greenpath looked like in stencyl

[cerulean sable]

it was like way way less details right

[twilit grotto]

Maybe we'll finally encounter that spider boss that TC cut out from the original game in SS lol

[cerulean sable]

show me

also, all im saying is
i love you HK and your moody blue in most of your areas

but im not gonna miss you in SS lmao

[ocean mulch]

That too but it was much darker and you could notice the glowing berries better

[cerulean sable]

show show show

[tight linden]

going off this, there seems to be a sort of wall surrounding the citadel seen here as well. Would imply that the citadel is just in the shaft of the volcano

[ocean mulch]

I don't have it on me rn aoshkdahjshsjajsh

It's in an old blogpost

[cunning geode]

you will be executed

[ocean mulch]

Also I checked out stencyl and the programming is literally scratch

[cerulean sable]

im such a sucker for cathedral aesthetics, i always had these aesthetic dreams when i was kid cuz i often go to church at this local one, tons of gates, flourishes inside the ceiling, atmosphere was echoey and it was just cold a fuck (wind would often go in because it was nearish at the end of a hillside giving it that "cliff" effect), marble floors and pillars etc

[tight linden]

citadel fan club right here

[cerulean sable]

and i know Blasphemous is a thing ok but... the background pixel art doesnt do it much justice

[tight linden]

citadel knight

[cerulean sable]

it got the enemy aesthetics but not the environments well enough imo

the BGs in HK was really well done to give them a depth even for a 2d game

[ocean mulch]

I love the art and themes in blasphemous but it was too much gore for me :(

[twilit grotto]

Looks like a large structure with a shaft connecting to it in the background

[cerulean sable]

like most of it is samey for each room like this

[cunning geode]

Nice Silksong frag compilation

[cerulean sable]

which is nice but again, HK's parallax does it more justice

[grim forge]

Needs more dubstep

[cerulean sable]

like remember Junkpit?

[twilit grotto]

Wait, that mushroom looking thing is actually a ton of roofs connecting to a central pillar

[cerulean sable]

yeah that area felt huge as fuck

[cunning geode]

Yeah, those are roofs

[tight linden]

large structure would be the main bulk of the citadel. That long shaft would be the connection to a potential giant bug made wall or a natural volcano wall

[signal crag]

HK parallax is quite good, yeah

[twilit grotto]

They even took into account of the fading effect far away objects impart in real life

[cerulean sable]

https://youtu.be/Z7bHykVeObo?t=14

[tight linden]

hps parallax would utterly ruin the depth with no fading

[cunning geode]

Yeah junk pit is huge

which I thought was funny when I first played godmaster

Looks great though

[cerulean sable]

its something i tend to notice from most other 2d games ive played namely Blasph and Death's Gambit

[signal crag]

The illusion of a giant area, only to be just a simple big room

[cerulean sable]

background is nice and all but they dont add THAT much depth

they feel very static-y

[tight linden]

spent ages trying to replicate a parallax effect on this still fake

[cunning geode]

Ah, maskbearer

[tight linden]

used from the maskbearer public assets plus just making the bug myself

[cunning geode]

I need to look into that when I have the time

[signal crag]

I really hope it becomes an actual thing one day

Definitely one of the most ambitious projects out there

[cerulean sable]

you got the artstyle thing well but the only issue is TC's stances on other media tends to be so so

[tight linden]

i know a lot of people on the team and they are all cool, including chroma

[cunning geode]

I love the idea of seeing what goes on elsewhere in the HK world - one of the main reasons I’m excited for Silksong to take place outside of Hallownest

[cerulean sable]

like right now theyre not actively targeting them or anything but like, any offers of books, medias, or what not tends to be ignored

even by people asking for permission to turn it into an RPG tabletop game with its own mechanics

they usually dont respond to them at all

[tight linden]

maskbearer is pretty clearly just a fan thing as of now and makes that clear

[cerulean sable]

ye ye

[cunning geode]

they did get some HK cards in that Binding Of Isaac game

Which was surprising

[heady iron]

I made a fan game that literally uses hk assets and I haven't been disintegrated yet

[signal crag]

Yeah, that

[wheat sail]

four souls

fun card game

[cunning geode]

Oh, allow me.

[cerulean sable]

yeah hence i was surprised they got into dead cells until...

oh wait you cant play as the Knight

just get his weapon

thats it

[cunning geode]

and the color scheme

[cerulean sable]

which is close enough i guess

i think theyll only disintegrate a project if it becomes too uhh, huge i think

[cunning geode]

Rightfully so

[tight linden]

its very impressive that the maskbearer stuff uses 0 TC assets considering how solid the assets are

[cunning geode]

That’s great

[cerulean sable]

i guess it boils down the assets thing too

if its your own assets then youd probably get away with it

[heady iron]

does 8k+ plays on itch count as huge

[cerulean sable]

the issue with stuff like the Demo remake was that they were using TC assets

[cerulean sable]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

😬

still under the radar but they dont need to know that 😉

[cunning geode]

Similar to the Black Mesa game and how they made everything themselves

[cerulean sable]

tbf Valve's stance on fan games is really huge

[cunning geode]

That’s true

yet still Black Mesa went the extra mile

[tight linden]

this too is completely original which is awesome since it matches the style quite well

[signal crag]

That looks great

[cunning geode]

Very fancy

So we have two new HK games to look forward to

[cerulean sable]

if that was Nintendo they wouldve just CnD'd it and that would be the end of it

Black Mesa was

• Allowed to use a licensed source engine
• Allowed to be sold on the market
• Developers was even given an invite for a tour around Valve
• Some of them got hired too

[tight linden]

the cool dev thing to do

[signal crag]

Right…i guess everyone handles this in their own way

[cunning geode]

Valve is pretty surreal

[frank sparrow]

oh man that is looking so good

[tight linden]

got to remember its just fakes as of now, not even screenshots

[cunning geode]

their best titles are mods of Half Life 2, which was made in the source engine, a modified version of the goldsource engine, a modified version of the quake engine

[frank sparrow]

oh man i finally thought it had started to get coded- i was so excited

[cerulean sable]

which is why the TF2 modding stuff got downed because they were using leaked source code which is a no no

but instead of just killing those mods, they said
"Look you cant do this because youre using literally leaked TF2 source code which is IP theft, BUT, what we think of what you guys are doing is pretty cool, so we more than willing to discuss it to all of you regarding how we can get around making TF2 mods a thing WITHOUT the source code theft issue so that it can pave an actual road for other future mods"

[signal crag]

No coding behind those, right

[tight linden]

no, the team is still figuring out things artwise, area wise, stuff like that

[tight linden]

yeah no coding, just assets

[frank sparrow]

disappointment

[signal crag]

Even the lore is a W.I.P?

[cerulean sable]

imo not shitting on your work but its pretty good, but would be cool if you guys do your own twist on the charm system

then again "if it aint broke, dont fix it"

[tight linden]

yes

[cunning geode]

Looks like two of those spokes have lesser versions of the green “charm”

[heady iron]

this is the most I've done with coding for the game

[cunning geode]

And they have different formations to choose from

[tight linden]

im not even on the team but yeah they are like modified charms. Main system I think is actually that you can change at weapons

[heady iron]

this excludes the character controller

[cunning geode]

Aye that walking animation ain’t bad

[frank sparrow]

the enemy coding is just

[wheat sail]

is that unity

[heady iron]

ye

[tight linden]

yeah the team provided a walking and falling animation thing a while back

[signal crag]

Also the health system is quite different, too.

[tight linden]

yeee

more like a bar rather than a notch type thing

[cunning geode]

Ironic, considering it’s “maskbearer” but I’m sure that’s on purpose

[tight linden]

main character wears a special mask of some type

leftovers and the only real similarity to the original thing they were doing which was the quirrel thing

[cunning geode]

Majora’s Mask mechanic

[tight linden]

i did a brief concept for an enemy and attack a little bit ago

[full rune]

when is the release date

[tight linden]

tmr

hell, right now

honestly just wanted to try an animation with that so i could animate other things on my mind

started doing this but havent gotten much further because of procrastination

[frank sparrow]

ngl

[full rune]

procrastination is bad and i would never do that

[tight linden]

i trust you zal

even surprised you let that awful word come out of your mouth

[cerulean sable]

good shittt

also if you defer from HKs or SS' sourcecode for the movement, thats a bonk possibilty yeah?

then again source code property is a slippery slope afaik

[tight linden]

i would assume if you use their code it would lead to a bonk

[hearty tendon]

it's not stealing if you say please

[tight linden]

its not a crime if you arent caught

[ocean mulch]

I still don't know what the last move is supposed to be

[tight linden]

hehehe

gimme a minute

[hearty tendon]

it snas dunertale

[tight linden]

@ocean mulch

[native ivy]

anyone had some good delusions about silksong being out lately?

[full rune]

no

[hearty tendon]

guess it's just a gas leakage

[ocean mulch]

That makes more sense than yoga

[wheat sail]

while on vacation they decide to give us some news 🙂

[ocean mulch]

That's how it goes usually

Since they have time to make a blogpost

[hearty tendon]

The news doesn't find you. you have to find it yourself

[native ivy]

news is the new zote nft series

[ocean mulch]

[agile herald]

What does not exist cannot be found

TGA 2023

[native ivy]

there might be news before then

[agile herald]

Maybe

[hearty tendon]

Blasphemy. you yourself cannot prove it's own inexistence. which mean you're just a non believer

[native ivy]

such as at EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE3

[hearty tendon]

Most hollows wait. Most find enjoyment in other. but some...some get a ticket to australia to ask them directly

[native ivy]

just live in australia noob

[agile herald]

I believe in the game releasing in 69 days (ffunny number)

[hearty tendon]

implying australian survives

i aint living inside an open

[agile herald]

Australians are stronger than the average human because on,ly the toughest survive past 5 and aren’t eaten by locusts or snakes or plants

[limpid elk]

It's 10am for me

& yes, Silksong is indeed funny game

[narrow lava]

||& ||yes, Silksong|| is i||n||d||eed|| funn||y|| g||am||e||
why would silksong need yams?

[sinful flare]

silksong need yam indeed

[native ivy]

silskopgofrdfggg

silkeds pong

[sinful flare]

i agree

[cerulean sable]

silksng competitive pv

pvp

[frank mist]

So we really ain’t gonna get anything this year

[grim forge]

Perhaps

[frank mist]

Only 12 days left

[delicate jetty]

till what

[tame widget]

Till the end of the year

[sinful flare]

Till december 19+12

[tame widget]

I may be a fool for thinking that, but we may still have really small chances of getting news on Christmas or on new year eve

[hollow sedge]

nah its still possible, low chance though

[tame widget]

The chances are low, but never 0

[small goblet]

haha hope funi

[cerulean sable]

haha random bug fables screenshot dont mind me

[upper coral]

"Puppet".. "Begin".... Is this a silksong reference?

[cerulean sable]

could it be 😳

[agile kelp]

WOOHOO SS ID COMING SOON EVERYONNNEEEE

[coarse leaf]

At this point... I'm just trying to forget about SS 💀 playing Blasphemous atm

[modest night]

i would play blasphemous but making a new save to see all the dlc content sounds very annoying

since you have to collect all the bones too

[unique pawn]

I Dont think on christmas, the devs will probably be spending time with their families

But the family might get ss updates so it counts

[ripe grotto]

I'm currently playing blasphemous too. It looks pretty good but damn some bosses are really hard

[ocean mulch]

How's the wall jumping in blasphemous

[modest night]

hey it's there if the game allows you to

[tough glen]

is it free dlc?

[modest night]

yeah all the dlcs are just free updates

[tough glen]

Nice

[modest night]

except for like a random skin

[tough glen]

Might get the game, idk

[modest night]

you should it's good

[tough glen]

How fast is the gameplay?

[modest night]

it's pretty responsive and fast

i find most of the base game bosses to be easy but the dlc ones are very good btw

[tough glen]

Cool, cool
and mechanics?

[modest night]

you have prayers/spells

[tough glen]

ig it doesn't matter what's base game and what's dlc when they're all free

[modest night]

yeah

the dlc bosses do slap tho

and i think they changed some of the main ones by the looks of the trailer?

||https://youtu.be/UJ9yIOuvGmU|| spoilers but man that's some super cool animation

also i'm very surprised blasphemous 2 is going to come out in 2023 considering the first game released in 2019

and they haven't stopped making dlcs

i wonder if they'll delay it

[tough glen]

Pretty sure I watched this trailer a couple days ago, lemme see

[small goblet]

oh yeah? i thought blasphemous 2 was a joke (only started playing recently)

[modest night]

nah it seems real

still like how??

are they just so confident they think they can make a full game in a year

or maybe they've always been working on it

[tough glen]

Oh hell yes, I did watch this and it's awesome

[agile kelp]

Man I wish I could get blasphemous

[tough glen]

Blasphemous takes place in a very religious world, right?

[modest night]

yeah

[tough glen]

No spoilers as to what it is, though

[ocean mulch]

I'm very glad they were able to turn their local culture into a game

[modest night]

are you implying spain is like the world in blasphemous

[ocean mulch]

Local

[small goblet]

well there will be christmas/new year discounts on steam so...

[ocean mulch]

Everything is based on like their city

[modest night]

that's cool but depressing

[agile kelp]

No the problem is I live with my family and I have a ps4

[modest night]

it's on the ps4 tho

[agile kelp]

Yes but I'm not exactly sure if blasphemous is family friendly you see

[modest night]

it's bloody

[rapid topaz]

I have finished Blasphemous like 4 days ago that was awesome

[small goblet]

my parents are fine with it, considering they don't like shooters and bloody games and stuff

[agile kelp]

Very bloody

[modest night]

are you young and they don't want you to play that type of game or do they not like blood

[agile kelp]

The former, they know I know it exists and they know i know about gore and nudity and all but they still don't want me to be too exposed to it despite knowing I know about such things

[rapid topaz]

I think It went straight into my top 5 of metroidvania games

[tidal hearth]

holy sheesh blashemous does look crazy

[modest night]

blasphemous is a very good game despite being tedious to 100%

[modest night]

and idk talk to your parents and tell them you're old enough to understand concepts like death or human bodies

[tidal hearth]

i mean u gonna witness them in life anwayss

[agile kelp]

I think they just feel uncomfortable

[modest night]

how old are you? like 13?

[agile kelp]

Older than that

[modest night]

bro

you need better parents

[tidal hearth]

i wouldnt call them bad parents

[modest night]

i was joking but still

[tidal hearth]

but overprotective

[modest night]

overprotectiveness is big red flag

[tidal hearth]

how so

[agile kelp]

No see they trust me but they still feel as if I shouldn't see extreme violence or extreme nudity, and I wouldn't say they're overprotective

[modest night]

that's fair ig but i don't think at your age it could hurt

[agile kelp]

Not exactly sure how they would react to blasphemous but it still would be strange

[modest night]

you should ask for a pc for christmas

more privacy

[balmy pasture]

PCs are expensive

[small goblet]

well you can at least by some later ryzen cpu with integrated gpu so it's not as expensive

[balmy pasture]

Its still going to be more expensive than a console for example

[small goblet]

and asking parents a pc or some tech isn't really good because they most likely don't know a lot about building and pcs in general

[tidal hearth]

i have potato pc that runs hk just fine
u dont need too expensive

[balmy pasture]

well you could tell them the parts but still

[tidal hearth]

and not only hk but games like isaac and terraria too

[small goblet]

yeah but on pc you can do more than gaming, though it is more expensive

[modest night]

hey it's more worth it than a console on the long run

[balmy pasture]

True, but parents suck sometimes and think that you only use it for games or smth

well yes

[modest night]

my pc cost me like 500 euros which is cheaper than/the same as a new console and it runs everything fine

plus you can just change the parts individually instead of having to buy a whole new console if you want to upgrade

[ocean mulch]

Also you can do other stuff that isn't games

[modest night]

yeah

and most games will be cheaper to buy on pc anyway

[balmy pasture]

yes, but explain that to some parents

[modest night]

idk doesn't sound hard to understand

but yeah one big thing is to not let your parents pick your pc for you

vendors know it when they see someone who doesn't know shit and will be misleading to sell garbage

[balmy pasture]

thats the easy part just pick the parts yourself

[modest night]

yeah just saying don't ask for a pc for christmas make the whole list of components

[balmy pasture]

yeah, I have a good PC but its literally in the kitchen so everyone sees what I do and its annoying

[ocean mulch]

I like the retro levels in blasphemous

[balmy pasture]

hm, yes

[short wagon]

Six days to Christmas and hope to see new silkSong updates

[ocean mulch]

There's loads of time

[modest night]

i should probably upgrade my pc after i move out with the money i saved up

[fresh zodiac]

well i mean its kinda sad that nothing happened related to silksong this year
but also

[balmy pasture]

maybe you should

[fresh zodiac]

i wont lose my bet i made

[balmy pasture]

you can hope but it most likely wont happen

[fresh zodiac]

dont have to draw my sona as a femboy

[balmy pasture]

what bet

[fresh zodiac]

zis

[balmy pasture]

ok but the bet was that there would be no news in 2021?

[agile kelp]

Wait what?

[fresh zodiac]

yep

[signal crag]

i don't want any news for 2021
make it a nice full year

[balmy pasture]

well there still could be a blog post but probably nah

[fresh zodiac]

if there are news-> femboy

but it looks like teamcherry cant clutch it
also tmodloader 1.4 was said to be released Q4 this year too

[balmy pasture]

what does that have to do with anything tho

[small goblet]

imagine expecting december news

[fresh zodiac]

nothing
but yeah its honestly maybe good to hear nothing
they have to perfectit

[balmy pasture]

Well even if they havent "perfected" the game yet it would be nice to hear some news in my opinion

[fresh zodiac]

WELL yea
i want more characters to simp for

we will see then

[balmy pasture]

well, we probably wont get anything but we can hope

[small goblet]

lace do be looking kinda thick

[balmy pasture]

[tame widget]

[fresh zodiac]

shut up
god now i have to think of the image tab in google when i looked for refs

[balmy pasture]

🤨

[small goblet]

yeah look at that image and never forget

[fresh zodiac]

no no
NOT THAT ONE
believe me i saw some r34shit

[small goblet]

oh fuck....

[balmy pasture]

why

[tame widget]

Ngl her legs lowkey look like Waterbug claws

But we already have a Waterbug in Silksong & it's the last judge

[fresh zodiac]

i had to look for refs and found pron twice
i do not want to life

[balmy pasture]

pain

[tame widget]

🍞 🇫🇷

[balmy pasture]

I get that one

[fresh zodiac]

pain

[ocean mulch]

What's a waterbug

I googled it

[balmy pasture]

nice

but how does she look like a waterbug

[sinful flare]

Bug but water

[balmy pasture]

woah

[agile kelp]

The last bug water bender

[balmy pasture]

lace is water

[agile kelp]

Lace is the bug bender

[balmy pasture]

But she can only bend waterbugs

[agile kelp]

As in she bends bugs, like bending their non existent spine

[small goblet]

lace is ||void ||

[agile kelp]

Lace is paleking

Hence, Lace is void given forcus

Hello everyone, how is your day going

[fiery coral]

Not excellently, I'll say that

How about you doing good?

[drowsy isle]

yesterday was an amazing day

today just started but i'm sure it'll be fine

[cerulean sable]

hey wanna talk about my old theory that Flobot's Handlebar is actually allusion to Silksong's storyline?

[burnt topaz]

[drowsy isle]

I hate silksong fans

[unborn quiver]

Alguna actualización sobre silksong :') ????

[fresh zodiac]

no

[unborn quiver]

Saldrá primero el Metroid prime 4 que silksong

[random fox]

I had a dream that silksong came out and it was 50€

[digital mural]

wen is silksong

october or febuary

i need to know

[random fox]

My dream didnt show release date so i cant tell u

[velvet heart]

I had a similar dream a few months ago aswell

I was playing it on xbox and it was around 15$

[random fox]

In my dream it was on gog

So if it comes out on gog my dream is right and urs is wrong cool

[ocean mulch]

I'm excited for skin mods in silksong because hornet's horns and needle make it so that there's a bigger frame space to work with

[sly belfry]

What's silksong?

[ocean mulch]

The sequel to hollow knight that's still in development

[sly belfry]

👀

[ocean mulch]

Starring Hornet as the playable character

[sly belfry]

Didn't even know that was a thing

[ocean mulch]

It was revealed in 2019

[sly belfry]

Rip.. Luckily I'm only at 50% in HK so I might have a few things more to do

[ocean mulch]

Just a few lmao

[sly belfry]

I heard there was a ||traitor lord|| so I'm trying to find it

[ocean mulch]

👍

[frank sparrow]

why are we discussing ||lords of traitors|| in the sequel of knight of hollow

[sly belfry]

Read the conversation, it's very logical

[frank sparrow]

#sk-discussion isn't logical-

[sly belfry]

Cool, I'm gonna study history now cause that's more important and I've been procrastinating it all week

[frank sparrow]

im shocked someone called this place logical- who was lying to this person

[sly belfry]

No no no, I called the conversation I had with Chroma, and how it ended with us 'talking about' ||the traitor lord|| logical, not this channel. I haven't had enough experience to give a fair 'verdict' upon the logicality of said channel.

[frank sparrow]

why do you keep doing the spoiler thing over the traitor lord

[sly belfry]

Because I was told to do so in the #hk-help channel, and figured the same 'rules' would apply to this channel

[sage glade]

if you haven't finished the main game, I don't think you should be in this channel

this channel is for the sequel and ppl can talk about stuff here freely, likely to spoil you

[fleet temple]

you don't need to use spoiler tags here, but yeah, if you don't want spoilers, then there will be some here

[frank sparrow]

yeah you dont need to spoiler in other channels except for that one but I only spend time in here

[sly belfry]

I was just here to ask what silksong was, but now i'm in a conversation with Discordium

[ivory niche]

Lmfaooo this channel chaos 24/7

[fleet temple]

Although, team cherry said that you won't need to play hollow knight to be able to understand silksong, so there won't be that many spoilers for hollow knight here

[sly belfry]

Very well, I shall not 'spoiler-proof' my messages any further.

[ivory niche]

Exactly get it right

[sly belfry]

Cool, however I really need to continue studying history so farewell

[ivory niche]

The bye

[frank sparrow]

yeah im capture that comment on logical conversation in #sk-discussion

[bleak scarab]

I remember wanting to be more regular in lore but now

[frank sparrow]

it may never happen again and we must remember this moment

[frank sparrow]

I used to spend time in meme COUGH

[bleak scarab]

Before the beans?

[frank sparrow]

how to say ctrl, c and v are your favourite keys without saying they're your favourite keys

[frank sparrow]

when all of our grandkids hit their 50s

[chrome hazel]

i dont get it

[bleak scarab]

Bold of you to assume i'll continue the bloodline

[hard stratus]

👶 👊 5️⃣ 0️⃣

[frank sparrow]

bold of you to assume you can have a kid with your own blood

[bleak scarab]

Who knows maybe cloning

[frank sparrow]

yo idk if i want a clone

im a pain

[wanton crest]

one of myself is enough thanks

[bleak scarab]

Step 1. Make many clones
Step 2. Make armor perfectly conditioned to suit you
Step 3. Take over the galaxy

[nimble radish]

hmm

[frank sparrow]

can i live in this Hatter apocalypse?

[bleak scarab]

Mayhaps

[nimble radish]

I for one welcome our new hatter overlord

[bleak scarab]

As you should >:)

[frank sparrow]

All hail our lord and saviour, The Overlord Hatter

[coarse leaf]

what if the clones start to think they're the original

[bleak scarab]

they shall be compelled to comply

[coarse leaf]

what if you start to think you're a clone

[wanton crest]

what if you were the clone ?

[nimble radish]

clones wouldn't have the original memories though

[wanton crest]

so they're not premium clones

[coarse leaf]

are the clones newborns in this scenario, cos that just seems like a pain?

[wanton crest]

they don't have the full package of me

[frank sparrow]

but- Hatter is Hatter-

[nimble radish]

well they could have accelerated aging

[wanton crest]

seems dope

[bleak scarab]

Hats shall take over

[coarse leaf]

you can't rly accelerate their experiences though, that'd just make them babies in adult bodies

[wanton crest]

just inflict them some trauma to grow them

we already are in some shady stuff

[bleak scarab]

When I shall take over moths are the first to go!

[frank sparrow]

[coarse leaf]

k im in

[true vine]

yall are going to be on some government list soon

[bleak scarab]

And fedoras the poor man's top hat

[wanton crest]

what if i'm already

[true vine]

you'll be on more

[frank sparrow]

bbbbbbbut im a moth

[wanton crest]

nice

[true vine]

indeed

[bleak scarab]

I do need a spy to take down the moths so..

[glacial gulch]

u guys think we will get any ss news before the year ends?

[bleak scarab]

As a skeptic, no.

[glacial gulch]

but as an optimist?

[nimble radish]

I think we'll get news today

[glacial gulch]

Lori ur delusional

[wanton crest]

you sure ? check the website

[bleak scarab]

The optimist in me washed away long ago

[glacial gulch]

what website

[nimble radish]

the silksong news website

[frank sparrow]

TC will definitely give news out at 11:45pm

[dusty nimbus]

If you're an off-brand plastic hat, off course, no moth would eat you to stop you

[frank sparrow]

[REDACTED]

[bleak scarab]

I heard somewhere sharing is caring which is obviously true and not just me over using that line for my benefit like those rich people

[sleek crow]

Food pictures 🍔 😋

[frank sparrow]

there is no such thing as sharing the gloriousness that is chaos' food- tis a highlight for me :3

[dusty nimbus]

True

[sinful flare]

[dusty nimbus]

Some day I'll make a very spicy food for your eyes to feast on

[frank sparrow]

SPICY FOOOOOOOD

[sinful flare]

Chaos ...... Disagree now

[dusty nimbus]

I will side with Discordium since he's a cheese bro

[snow jacinth]

guys, serious question
when's the next big livestream that could perhaps give us the light upon our souls of revealing ss information? (sorry if this been asked before, im not very active here)

[sinful flare]

N))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

[small goblet]

um, e3 maybe? in june

[frank sparrow]

i doubt e3

[snow jacinth]

oof that's a long wait, thanks though

[small goblet]

well indie worlds and nintendo directs as well, but their dates are completely unknown

[brittle garnet]

Silksong news don't have to be given at an event, and in fact probably won't be, unless it's the release date

[snow jacinth]

i see

[frank sparrow]

CHAOS FOOD PIC

[cerulean tree]

did y'all beat tower tyrant yet? (aka the best silksong boss)

[brittle garnet]

[cerulean tree]

i will take this as a no

[proud dagger]

There’s usually a Nintendo direct in either January or February

[outer cypress]

what is going on?? why did mossbag say it was announced when it wasn’t actually 😒

[cerulean tree]

wym its out

[outer cypress]

😒

[frank sparrow]

mossbag hasn't announced silksong is out?

[odd plover]

Excuse me rando?

[nimble radish]

people keep doing this

attempt to @ team cherry :troll:
pings tea :trollwait:

[odd plover]

Alright who the fuck snitched

Fine, fine

Silksong will release the 7th of March of 2022

[nimble radish]

finally some news

@ ararura hey dude

[sage glade]

they're not pingable, are they

[sinful flare]

Nope, not pingable

[odd plover]

If someone does that they get crucified

[nimble radish]

the role isn't
the people with the role are

if anyone asks you didn't hear that from me

[sage glade]

i'm sure they have the server muted anyway lol

[gleaming palm]

Hey quick Silksong theory that probably won't happen. Remember how each dreamer in HK had a way of guarding themselves? Except the thing which is theorized to guard Hera is never actually seen/fought in game. What if that thing followed the weavers or was somehow connected to them enough to have left with them and we will get an answer to why Hera was unguarded in Silksong

[odd plover]

I'm sure they forgot they had discord altogether

[wanton crest]

unless they

[gleaming palm]

Highly unlikely yes, but still interesting

[nimble radish]

we do fight herrah's guards
they're just not a boss

[gleaming palm]

I'm talking about this

[odd plover]

It would have been cool if nosk was the one guarding herra

[tame widget]

Going through Deepnest is the boss

[odd plover]

Man I have played hk so many times I know hallownest better than I know my house

[nimble radish]

hell, herrah has two major defence mechanisms
the maze full of her devout and the weird dudes that tie you up

[odd plover]

Yes I have a problem and no I don't intend to change

[sage glade]

we need a geoguesser for hallownest lol

it just shows the least memorable screens in the whole game and asks you to guess where its from

[odd plover]

One thing I absolutely love about deepness is how comically uninviting it is

[nimble radish]

we can play budget geoguesser
just post a screenshot

[wanton crest]

could be done with the embraced one's map

[odd plover]

Like, every element of it is just screaming you "get out"

[nimble radish]

example
where is this

[sage glade]

good idea, could be a monthly event or something

[odd plover]

Howling cliffs

[wanton crest]

howling cliffs

[sage glade]

mato sheo oro room

[nimble radish]

yea howling cliffs

[wanton crest]

Harder one

[nimble radish]

greenpath entrance

[odd plover]

Forgotten crossroads

[small goblet]

fireball skip?

[wanton crest]

yeah

[sage glade]

well in geoguesser, you get points based on how close you were. you can't really describe exact locations with words

[odd plover]

It's not technically greenpath yet

[tame widget]

It's green crossroads

[odd plover]

Since we are at it, what things do you not want to be in silksong?

[nimble radish]

hornet

[sage glade]

hornet

[odd plover]

Good call sir

[tame widget]

Ok then, Silksong is canceled, go home now

[odd plover]

That line is so likely to be true its scary

[tame widget]

It would be stupid of TC to cancel Silksong & not saying anything

[wanton crest]

easy one

[tame widget]

Flukemarm area

[odd plover]

One thing that every metroidvania lacks in my opinion is postgame

[wanton crest]

correct

[wanton crest]

hk with godhome has plenty of that

[odd plover]

And no godhome doesn't count

[wanton crest]

it does

[odd plover]

You can do it before finishing the game

[velvet heart]

define finishing the game
