Love lemongrab, what a chad
Simo, where did the name Simo come from?
his real name is simo, obviously
Clearly because his real name is Simon
Simon "Simo" Simone
that makes sense
Simon is the ice king smh
A nickname I had growing up, and no my actual name isn't Simon 
Simeon right?

Fair
simom
anime is a sin
snom
omg simo irl????
Evolved Tiktik
i wanna punt snom
Thanks. I knew your real name isnt Simon, since it appears on the HK credits
Snom looks drop-kickable
Is it Simonthony
snom looks microwavable
They pop
It's like a living snowcone

How many fleas do you have to eat to take in 1000 calories
we shouldnt be recuing flees
60k
Fleas are just worse grubs
Yum
we should be given this option, so i can harvest them everytime
We save fleas for cool consumables from the caravan, nothing else
I'm pressing X why is nothing happening
not worth
maybe you can choose if you want to give the flea back to the caravan or huntress
that
wait no that's actually a good idea
And then you find out near the end of the game there's a secret 3rd option to give the fleas to
so you engage in a boss battle with one of the huntress or caravan to retrieve all the fleas you previously donated
but they're not loyal to anyone, so once freed, they escape in clusters throughout the world again, and are found in even newer secret and interesting areas
Did you just leak SS gameplay
burn the child feed the father

did you see my lore doc?
yeah
it was a while ago I don't remember a lot of it
but it was good in my memory
Nice! Yeah I'm just here to make good times
I really should put out the video though, and just make other misc fun theory ones
If there was an artist who wanted to help make concept art I'd be down
Oh rip, compact mode and my general ineptness didn't put together that you were necromancer 😅
we chatted before yeah
I would go insane if I couldnt see peoples pfps. Yall change your names constantly
some people change their pfps as well
oh yeah
I'm pretty sure jacoby also uses light mode
I used light mode for about a month or two
so I'm desensitized
thought that said electric boi
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22mGCmoBDS8 seriously its fucking broken
poor big daddy 
and you just need Distilled Water to craft 50 volumes of Elec Gel
Light mode is great, very high fidelity.
what is video games
Baby don’t hurt me
Why is it at an angle 
role colors look so atrocious
same with server icons
they're definitely made with dark mode in mind
photo?
Because everything about that photo was intended to induce agony.
It works
If I wanted to make it worse I would use betterdiscord and add among us crewmates in the back.
please do
I also forgot the thing I did with my banner entirely until just now 
tf you guys torturing yourself for
I am on mobile
torture is fun
ok CIA
You use GitHub
I want a waterboarding sherma scene
Fair
oh you made it dark mode color? that's cool
unless you're using light mode 
Exactly
tbh it still looks okay
everything else is just horrible
why the hell is that a thing
Its so the FBI knows who to monitor
Light mode~~ just makes everything ~~look bad
light mode + minimum brightness is the way
you are on a watchlist
no imean wherethe fuck are the pfps
agreed.
every day I don't remember that emote exists is a good day

I ate them
flukeyaya is iconic wys
this fella uses a man catcher which is pretty cool
wtf is a man catcher
like i can here the fluke going "ya ya!" in its little fluke squeaky excited voice
dreamcatcher but for men
A man catcher, also known as catchpole, is an esoteric type of pole weapon which was used in Europe as late as the 18th century. It consisted of a pole mounted with a two pronged head. Each prong was semi-circular in shape with a spring-loaded "door" on the front. This created an effective valve that would allow the ring to pass around a man-siz...
Hey I'm new here, we talking about ss enemies?
this is what I was expecting
man cactchers
weapons technically.
how do you spell chatcters
Nice
imagine the enemy variation of this
well this one has 2 stabs
while this one has 1 stab but they slash upward afterwards
little variations like that would be nice
What a dumb guy, he should use a bugcatcher
That'd be cool
I dont think hornet will use any melee weapon other than her needle. But Im down with enemies using different types of weaponry
but for real tho hoping for enemy variety to be more meaningful tho that is a monumental task at 150+ enemies
remember in FW where there's 2 enemies that are only different in sprite
I think TC wants to avoid that
see this is why turnbased games are better 😤
now you have me hoping for kidnapper enemies that have the same mechanic as the kidnapper in the church ward in bloodborne
I mean they seem to be going for those little details since even the floor in alot of areas interacts differently in the trailer with hornet
plus the 20 "I move back and forth on the ground" enemies
YES
that's not exactly a little detail
I mean like in mossy areas the floor is a lil squishy
I just meant having more variation in general, it would make the game a lot better
Yeah make it feel more alive
I love forced area transitions
the squishy floor is epic but not having it wouldn't detract from the quality
Ye add ons
"would you like to be kidnapped?"
stockholm syndrome
I'll take that as a yes
U lot doing a beauty and the beast
I'm the teapot
I'll be the wardrobe or whatever the opera singer was
short and stout
Here is my barrel here is my gun
barrels from the hit game donkey kong country
Of course of course
Ok I guess
banned

And guns from the hit game donkey Kong country but with guns
Your pfp is a man with good quality
It kinda looks more like a staff
If always makes me think of the sun which wouldn't be crazy to think of considering that the bugs in pharloom worship/glorify light (the citadel)
Theory: Hornet will be in Silksong
but that's just a theory
Not a game theory tho
Yeah he’s not allowed here anymore
A video game theory 
yes and yes
Gun will be interesting, but shields exist
hey guys tools?
Honestly 4 Grammys might’ve been a bit much
I feel like almost any mod that exists for HK will also be made for SS at some point
depends once i actually see her entire move/toolset
if its too ingrained or archaic and shit im not gonna bother
kelpy g
Thinking about it, depending on how strict you are, HK has like around 80 "unique" enemies right?
yo
yo
like enemy categories?
Presumably as in enemies with significantly different behaviors, as opposed to having different names and sprites
Like mosskin and wandering husk, which behave in basically the same way
What if, you can break your thing that holds your equipmet
like the place where you select what you use
I forgot what it’s called
Crest
Probably didn’t count the armored fools that took enemies from greenpath. Other than that I have no idea
Huh
like overcharming kinda?
What if you can overcharm the crests but
It stays over charmed/broken and you have to fix it
tools
Using some material
You can’t fix overcharming
"But they're wrong Monomon the Teacher
The Crests are to blame" - Edelbug
that is an interesting thought
like combining fragile charms with overcharming and then applying it to tools
"That was the Hollow Knight's mistake" - Plae King
I really wonder what ending ss comes after
Canonically, all of them
How
Wait lemme get my thing
By not excluding any
All the endings happen at once
Regardless of what happens at the end of Hollow Knight, we know Hornet is alive and captured by the Citadel cult at the beginning of Silksong. It doesn't matter what happens between the two because it's not important to the story of either game.
All endings are canonical because Silksong doesn't care about any of the events of Hollow Knight itself, since we know where Hornet is at the start.
Ok
And none of them happen
Oh shit different timelines
oooh, meta
What

Just depends on your save file I guess
if you didn't play hollow knight, you can still play silksong
if you only got one ending, you can still play silksong
What if I got all endings on one save file
you can't play anymore
You choose which one is canon to you
Sealed siblings
Unfortunately you have used all your free endings. To see more you need to send $4.99

Good choice
Sealed Siblings is a good choice, explains how the hell the citadel bugs managed to capture her without getting butchered

does the paywall continue across all HK franchise games
is this a cheat code
Indeed, it is added retroactively to HK
Graig blink twice if ea bought team cherry
Is that his
Yours
Or is it... both 
If you already accessed the content in HK that would be behind the new paywall, you will be billed
A modern cheatcode
To find you
Credit card info 
Only cool kids do it
I don't have one 
I'm young and untrustworthy
That's the format that fits what curly posted
So uncool. I have 8.all maxed out
Probably isn't a real credit card but still
Hornet doesn’t resemble a hornet in the slightest 
Of course it's not a real card.
wow, that must mean you maxed the fun!
So you claim 
time to test it out
Necro is about to be arrested for credit card theft
If I go under I'm taking you down with me 
there is a prison
Hornet and Grindle plan a heist
_ _
silksong game of the year because you can rob people
Hornet captured because she broke the law
She also escaped. Hornet is a fugitive on the run.
there shoyuld be optional kingdom management gameplay, whnere you make units, and send them to control territories and captures towers and find moreo pen world areas then you fight other militaries its a really good idea to shoehorn despite not really fitting the game amirite fallout 4 amirite?? amirite amirete amirte???
relatable
when team cherry announces the release date but its ██████████
Hornet should be able to unlock a motorbike in Silksong
Simo got the nickname Simo because he was too tall and Simo's friends named im Silo and one day Silo had enough and asked them to stop calling Silo "Silo", they then agreed so they changed the "l" to a "m" and thus Simo was born
simo lore
So what was he called before Silo
also, hi chaos

1 year of nitro is HOW MUCH?
A scam
I accidentaly opened the tab for buying nitro and holy shit
Yea
Yeah but you get the funny moving emotes
How much is in dollars?
How much is it again?
$100 for a year
😧
Right
$50 for Nitro Classic
That is still too much
1 dollar = 5,71 reais (brazillian currency)
So for me is 519,99* reais one year nitro
nice

Is it nice?
barely even noticable
Yeah totally reasonable price, very nice
true
can you really put a price on being able to post meme gif emotes
Gonna spend half a salary on nitro
Isn't that gif
I hope they lock # lore just for nitros
why?
Only people who pay for nitro should have the honour to discuss about lore
true
Make that change when silksong comes out
I just realized I have no idea how to use discord. Its my 7th day ever using it
Its not that hard. You just type things
But like how do you find small servers like the ones my brother uses with like 9 people
press ctrl + / to see all the keyboard shortcuts
ctrl + k brings up the quick switcher, in case you ever get lost in a billion servers
Hang around and meet people. Then join their servers if they have any.
like you guys
make them yourself and invite randos 
dont do that
I know
also, no advertising servers here.
What are advertising servers?
posting invite links
advertising as in the verb
they meant you cannot advertise servers here
oh
Just shrink your own gifs
Im curious, where doe the emotes from this server comes from. Like do artists submit to the sub, there are randons picked up from somewhere
or dont
The flow of time will eventually fade this memory away from even the oldest of souls
Also add a tree to silksong
At the end of the bridge, that could be an tree root (but most likely not)
there was the white lady/the tree lady
Nah but she’s not in silksong
ah
And like a real non sentient tree
Don't think that will happen chief
You probably wouldnt be able to see the whole tree from how massive it would be
towering over Pharloom
SS and ER take place in the same world
Is that essence?
Yeah now that tree would be cool as fuck
If we see a pixel of the sky i would already surprise
no u
'well, thou'rt of passing skill' - Lace
so true
true fact
Shakra: "You'd do well to steer clear of Zote's domain, fledgling. A wild zote roosts there... And it's as fearsome as it it majestic."
I didn’t know we got more teasers for breath of the wild
good knight 
Do we get to finally see what Odin looks like? Or did Kratos already use cappy to kill him
what do you guys think is the best/least scummy AAA company
Do we know if Chris Pratt is the voice actor for diddy kong? Or is he only voicing the bayonetta boss fight
Santa Monica studios has been doing fine so far.
Not all AAA game companies a#re scummy bro. Indies have done their fair share of bad too anyways - though Triple A outdoes them in that regard
putting words in my mouth
AAA and Indie developers are different merchant types in the same market. If an indie or AAA is scummy but successful it’s part of the market.
From Software is pretty chill
I think that fromsoft is one of the best AAA companies
AAAs are more scummy because of how much they can actually influence the market 🥴
Fromsoft has nailed down their consistency bar, yeah.
If elden ring works out - you can’t even call them unoriginal/uninventive anymore, because that’s basically been their main flaw regarding soulslike games
Unless you walk through a poison swamp in ER.
there will be a poison swamp and you know it 
If I walk through a poison swamp 3 hours into elden ring I’m gonna cry.
Yeah, there will be 100% an poison pool of some kind
based off the network test, I very much think elden ring will be a great game if that little slice we were given is emblematic of the rest of the game
Cyberpunk has taught you nothing then 
Not even Sekiro escaped the poison pool
Game is out when it’s out. We have no image of how good or bad it will be until actual players get their hands on it
Don't remember Cyberpunk giving us a 9 hr (approximate time to beat) demo before launch
shush
From Software is so lazy, this Patches guy has been reused like 5 times
Elden Ring will be good
also I never cared about cdproject
if it's bad I will blame you and only you
Fromsoft is (I’m a broken record now) extremely consistent
This also unfortunately happens to include their failures
I really hope patches is in elden ring in some form, love his character
Fromsoft has never had a good multiplayer system server side
And they’ve been sorta running out of theme ideas to set and design their games. Which is why I’m so hyped for elden ring aesthetic and level design
I just hope it’s not painful to move around in.
I think theres some jank that is shared with multiple games
didn't seem painful in the beta, thankfully 
If your open world game sucks to travel through, your open world game sucks balls.
And they love reuse assets
they're not perfect games, but dang fun
Never been a perfect souls game, never been a shit one either though
Seriously they used the same dog/wolf for like 3 games i think
they did?
I don't really care about reused assets
And i don't have much of a problem, i find funny
Case in point regarding their environments. What I have more issue with is their somewhat inconsistent level design quality
idk i thought they did well with super mario 64
If you’re gonna make a castle level for the 20th time, at least make it interesting to move around in
I think the bloodborne and the dark souls 3 dogs only changes the skin
they topped that with The Adventures of Cookie & Cream
like the parkour they showed in the trailer
Yeah but that implies they didn’t blow it out of the water with the tomb raider and gex crossover
true
I think that aspect will add a whole new dimension to fromsoft level design
the ability to jump
Either gonna do nothing cool or make the game awesome.
from the network test and trailers, it looks pretty cool
Let's hope ER mp is playable
Regardless, I’m neither worried or cynical about it, so here’s hoping they’ve expand on the ideas set before them
If they are running out of ideas, just make Bloodborne 2 already 
But please not PS exclusive
I don't think fromsoft are going to make any more ps exclusives (just a hunch)
I hope not
cause the only reason they have done it previously is for that sony 💰 budget 💰 and now that they have some actual funds they can do what they want without sony's help
It seems that sony really misstreated bloodborne
Oh yeah, another thing. The games run like shit
it's like that with most multimillion video game conglomerates and their ips
I mean, not that bad. But fps drops are pretty consistent in fromsoftware games
on console, ye
speaking of Bloodborne
I have never experienced a frame drop on pc (PC MASTERRACE)
you know how it was initially a game about hunting beasts
and then halfway through it pivots into eldritch lovecraftian stuff
nope, still have not played it
You kill the one reborn and you eardrums explode and the fps goes to 5
I've seen people hypothesise that ER may have a similar switch in theme
me too
considering there's apparently a lot of celestial undertones in the lore...?
yes (I have read many item descriptions)
they have mentioned stars and planets having power
If elden ring has a pseudo zodiac system imma squeel
gimme all ur birth dates times and places
and I will explain your traumas to u
glintstone, the sorcery staff's power source, is said to be the residual life of the stars
I abused glintstone arch so much in the beta
give me your mom's maiden name and first pet's name to me too, it's for zodiac signs
"glintstone is the amber of the cosmos" says the weird burger king lady in the network test
big cool star stuff
spell casting is honestly so much fun in elden ring. I highly recommend everyone tries it out
"Kosm, Or Some Say Kos"

"Grant us eyes... Grant us eyesssss"
No Eyes, probably
also, literally every network test class has got the drippiest drip in the history of mankind
such good armor designs
POV, I do this with my arms: | __

Hi
Time in Aldelaide: 6:32 pm
can you stop using those specific pics they're kind of... cringe imo
not the art in general just using them
192.32.192.5
I didn't mean it in a rude way it's just sorta irritating
but ya'll do ya'll I guess
Hmmm
at least u asked lmao
?
^
ask instead of idk
command
Huh
using cringe to refer to something outside of medical related gore as "cringe" in current year? SMH

my dad works at team cherry and he will ban you
its not serious, they use it because funny
My dad went to go get milk and he will unban you, we are not the same

Hey thanks for the choccy milk
Wait that means
Your my father?
Perhaps

they have sent you a letter

Hello
Thought about that clock tower in silksong and remembered that there might be a warlord in a tower type of area in the game.
And then I thought of a boss called "Timekeeper" who went mad using silk. Now he can stop time when fighting.
I shall see myselt out now/j
Time powers 
Yeah. Wanted to see how a time traveler boss would work, so I thought that he might stop time, posistion some weapons or spells around hornet and then resume time. It's a boes battle that completely throws the player off their playstyle of being quick, where you have to think about where you're stelling. I also thought about that clock tower and thought "Fucker probably has power over time using that tower so of course he's gonna be an ass when we fight him"
What clock tower
This place. I'm assuming it's a clocktower due to the cogs in the background and due to team cherry saying in one of the blogposts (I think it was a blogpost) "A warlord in his tower:
interesting area
damn there's a clocktower and a sewing machine (or loom idk, forgot the word. someone did a theory on it)
wonder how many other places they'll have like that
Hoping we get a church like area for the bell cult. Really want to pop in on the bell cult's hideout and go ooga booga.
Bell cult: We've lost the princess of deepnest, but don't worry! We'll find them!
Me: Surprise motherfucker
I actually think it might be a bell tower
Basically the same thing but
There aren't any clocks in HK
In the deep docks we see that time is measured using bells
i feel like all these mechanical places are the same area
Oh it's a loom tower! So maybe we'll get this as a second area. Maybe it's like deepnest 2.0 where some disturbing shit happen.
One of my reasons is that all the songshrines use the same cogs
idk if they can recreate the same type of feeling as deepnest honestly
it wouldn't feel original
Maybe that's the kingdom. This one huge building and every area is like a room.
Maybe not the same feel as deepnest, but maybe that same level of disturbing? Different vibes, still creepy.
Idk I just want more creepy areas. I love horror.
so that dungeon designed with a backer is a factory
true. more horror is always nice
facts
Loom factory could be a place where they keep the weavers and we get the disturbing realisation of why the weavers left Pharloom all those years ago.
Deepnest was not disturbing or creepy for me :// sure it was a maze and all of that but
(Speculation) I think the loom factory would be early on bc as the kingdom is vertical it gets brighter the higher up
This explains wy it is dark

bruh the first area is a bright green place
Still natural light is a thing man like the lava
It might be the buildup 2 lace 2 doe??
The light being the flowes
I don't think it's early on
And just like In the first one she might be protecting a bell
i think it does
Am I tripping or was it confirmed that hallownest never touches the surface
I think it didn't have a surface
yea dirtmouth isnt surface
I don't remember
i think its thought that the land of storms might be surface?
How did it have wind tho
bcause storm?
They died
yea but its not in hallownest
hmmm
right ur right, i was thinking hollow knight as a game not hallownest. sorrey
That God died
Maybe there is a surface and the final boss is a bird
What about the puppet theory
that would be sick though i dont know how that would fit in
That the boss is controlling every mob
Very weak imo
I thought the songs where what cursed the inhabitants
I never see them no matter how hard I look
U sure?
I mean there's the like streak of white when hornet hits an enemy but
wait lemme watch the demo
what is the "puppet theory"
That there is a puppet master controlling every mob
It's not strings tho
it resembles them
Why not?
i think it's just a little effect with no meaning
What about the boss that is litteralu a puppet
spider mech thing
i mean its a lot different than the hit effect in hk and probably does mean anything, or it could just be a prototype
Mhm
The puppet theory may be true but I think it's more to do with a song controlling them
Maybe
Some guys just playing the violin at the top
fallen kingdom played on my car radio i screamed at the radio cus it wasnt the minecraft vesion 😦
It happens only when u kill them
So?
It's not an effect they make sure that u can see it
Everything is in ss discussion
It's no animation they make it clear especially for the puppet boss
What if theres multiple puppeteers and theres 1 for each area
Cuz idk how 1 could controll all areas
Would need to be massive
how can one moth cintrol thousands of enemies
Brain power large
I also think it would be cool to kill a big hard boss in each area and than get to the last big one
this isnt ss discussion
No silksong news today, but tomorrow for sure!
Zotebyte 
I think there is silksong news in the next 15 min surely. If not maybe the next 30 minutes
Definitely
if there isnt who we gonna through our tomatos at this time
yourselves
Hello Sock
hello
Remember when sock pfp was actually a sock
bold of you to assume SS is even real
silksong is real I saw it on my street yesterday
Updated my gif pfp lol
factual statement
okay that's cursed. i've only ever seen a portion of that gif
RETURN TO ORIGINAL...
YOOOOO
Goddamn that gif
YOOOOO
why woulnd't you want it to loop
it's supposed to stop on the last image of the eye staring at you
a couple people kept tryign to hold staring contests with it because they assumed it was just a long pause frame instead of the end of the gif
I FIXED IT
I honestly think that in February Team Cherry will make a post, either on the blog or in some other media. 5 years of Hollow Knight is an important milestone to be overlooked. It remains to be seen whether they will talk about Silksong or not.
I don't think they really care about milestones too much but you never know
When in febraury is the 5year aniversary
February 24
They could still take 10 minutes to make a blog post or something, people act like making a post somewhere is such a huge sacrifice.
Seriously, you people need to stop acting like they work 24/7 7 days a week
Proper blog posts takes about a week
To amateurs maybe
Then TC are amateurs
Their apparent opinion on the matter
Considering how poorly they handled communication so far? I don’t doubt it
Oof
You clearly don't understand how much time it takes to do things correctly
Was handled so well toward the start but MASSIVELY trailed off, giving people evidently false expectations as to what they should expect in terms of communication
I'm not looking for a repeat of yesterday, can you try to have a bit more of a positive outlook on these things?
genuinely curious as to how a blogpost takes a week 🥴
Yeah I’d say like 30 minutes
Clearly you overestimate how much work goes into it, if they don’t want to talk about the game itself then at least celebrate the 5th anniversary
Planning. Talking amongst themselves
It’s not a big deal, quit acting like it is
Team cherry often pull fan works into their blog posts
That takes time, permission from artists is important
Just from what Graig said it doesn't sound like TC really care all too much about cultivating the community that they've built (whether they like it or not)
So? Quit making excuses for them. If they don’t have time for it then leave it out
Better than nothing at all
alright, calm down 🥴
none of us are exactly pleased with how things are going but yeah 'tis how it is
You fanboys are always making excuses for every little thing
Do you risk showing too much or something that might get scrapped. I'm sure this all goes through their head. I remember during the riddles they had to pass stuff through jack to get a video
Many people aren't too happy about it, but gotta follow mod orders to chill
If you're not a fan why are you even here?
There’s a difference between being a fan and a fanboy, you clearly don’t know the difference
drop it please, both of you
honestly I'm surprised that they have to devote a week specifically for that, to the extent that it actively detracts from development
well they should. they deserve to celebrate
exactly, no boys allowed
They do deserve to celebrate, but they seem like the type that are pretty strict on themselves when it comes to breaks and celebrating stuff - probably will have a big celebration when the game is fully done and that's it
true maybe
i wanna hear the soundtrack
Idk the extent of it all cause I'm not a dev I'm just going off of graig saying it's a week and I speculate why off of that. Making a webpage is a PITA too
I'm sure there's good reasons
I wish they just said when they think the game would be finished, like even just saying 2022 or second half of 2022, no need for an exact date
Abd yes maybe they could work it into their schedule
Because that would rile people up an push expectations through the roof
tbf that week spent making the blogpost would give us enough news to tie us over for several months
How
Is that not why teams hire a PR guy? 
not trying to be sarcastic here, it's a genuine question
Yeah, they're just the very conservative type when it comes to development - don't want to make promises they can't deliver
Ask Leth
I had this similar question asked to Graig 
their pr guy is @opaque sigil
Like, the reason why the developer team has separate people for marketing is so that said developer team doesn't have to worry about publicity and hype generation (and all those fancy marketing terms) being their own responsibility, right? That's been my understanding at least
Yeah. I'm not on TC but they kinda seem like the ppl that want a hands on with everything to do with their IP. Sure pr makes it easier but they might wanna sit down and go through it all. But that's my speculation
I’ve said my piece, this post is important to show appreciation for their game and the community. It doesn’t have to be about Silksong news, after all it is the 5th anniversary for hollow knight and not silksong
This was pretty much the catch-all response as to why no news
I would go with depressing
I don't understand what's so hard about bring patient
There's so much else going on, look at game releases coming in the near future
Also sometimes I consider. Maybe they just like making games and don't really like making posts or anything like that
Some ppl might not be interested in those games, or just want to play ss alredy
It's not about it being difficult.. it's about preventing the damage that comes from the frustration of the fanbase over long periods of silence. Take Valve as an example...
I don’t think they do
iirc Leth wants them to do blogposts more
It will inevitably come out so why bother waiting and waiting for more news. Perhaps finding more game communities will take your mind off things.
he can’t force em
so how are we coping today
is that a venti pfp
Idm waiting since i have several games waiting for me in my library but i can see why some ppl are impatient
this dude gets it
hat is definitely true. The people defending team cherry are saying “it’s just a small dev team” and that they want to add more to the game, but the reality is that if they don’t give us any updates or news the community is going to get really toxic. Especially since one of the play testers was trolling the community, and that made people even more toxic.
It seems like they used to be so active in the wider community but now they've become SUPER hermits due to HK
is valve actually planning to release anything ever
Whats that
genshin
not until they actually do 
They can do whatever they want however. I'll just play other games in the meantime. My life doesn't revolve around HK
oh, i havent ever played genshin
damn
So defending team cherry is inherently a toxic opinion?
still blocking you
mine does
I got it a few days ago its like the most mediocre expirience ever
Joker its me cmon ur bestie extraterneistw 
I breathe hk, if hk did not exist I would perish
pretty sure this logic can be applied to Silksong as a whole lmao, let's hope that hasn't been taken to heart 🙂
I swear I saw this on Reddit lol
Yeahhh ... people will of course play other games in the meantime, it's probably just more the people hang out here in this discord that feel the pain
definitely a copypasta yeah 
obviously people will play other games in the meantime, they have lives to live
that won't stop them from criticising the one year silence
No but theres ppl who would defend everything they do, its pretty reasonable to think that not showing anything and being silent for so long doesnt rly show any apreciation for their fanbase
At least graig is laying off the trolling now.
I’ve just been waiting so long for news and checking in regularly that I want the satisfaction of being around for the next update
goodbye
That line of Graig's is barely even being taken out of context too. That's a really heavy thing to say about interacting with the community. Like the HK community is quite big, but not big enough to pretend that you can't please at least some loyal fans by interacting with the community
I would like to see people who like to complain make a game
Agree. In a way. I dislike how what news we did had was handled but that's just my opinion nor do I have a solution for it
So if u dont have expirience in doing smth u cant/shouldnt complain about it?
I love complaining
Anyone want to make a game with me
Being pressured into making a game better than an already critically acclaimed indie darling is a lot emotional stress to handle for sure.
yeah it never made sense to me how it's automatically assumed that people who are complaining about SS have nothing else to do 
Why couldn't the wait for silksong just be a three year anime timeskip 
Yeah what zaliant said, the original message was sent like hours ago and i just tried picking it up just to drop it here, but Zal replied to it that by the time i did
exactly.. plus, it's always the people who complain that are the most vocal about it.. even if it's an absolute minority..
theres ways to timeskip the real world don't worry
He's laying off the trolling? how so
there's another vocal section who praise the first game to the heavens 🥴
True
and get mad when people don't like it but that's a whooole other problem
he’s not gonna do the same thing that he did during TGA?
kids talking about how "its been 2 years???" and im like back in my days if i see a trailer, that game is gonna come out after 4+ years
this server in particular has shifted to insulting hollow knight at every turn
Yeah wow, he really messed up, I'm glad he acknowledged it at least
what is that emote
omegapan
Wdym u didnt like 1 second of the 50 hours this game offers? U just suck, git gud
dead cells pan

and shit's still not out
DA4 isn't gonna be out fir a while and so many of Biowares staff left
Star citizen 🥴
I'm not confident they can pull it off well
that's like just a cutscene/animatic/whatever you call it though right
Yeah, I think after TGA there has been quite a shift in toxicity 
"but this is a huge 3A game so it makes sense for it to take this long"
meanwhile
"yeah i know theyre a 3 man team, and yeah i know they said they wanted to make the game as huge as the first game, but they shouldnt take this long" :^)
Meanwhile cuphead fans waiting 5 years for a dlc
I mean look at how long we've waited for the 6th elder scrolls
TES6 has had like one shot of a field right
E3 2018 and no news whatsoever, they have it much worse
Skyrim was a good game, if a bit buggy back in the day
Abit.
But it's been 10 years there
skyrim is a badgood game
I just want fallout 5 
You’re not a game dev right? Then you’re no longer allowed to complain when you purchase a buggy mess EA made and you paid 60 dollars for. Because if you don’t make games clearly you don’t know anything about them right?
This is the year
Honestly if not though my faith in TC may slowly dwindle
Fallout 76
i remember seeing people get pissed as the HK community at times and i would get pretty defensive, nowadays i dont mind people shitting on the game just to see pissed off people blindly defend it
i know its not exactly a healthy outlook as this is my fave game but i kinda get some gratification when kids fume over this
like even the sub isnt helping when they upvote garbage like "GUYS SOMEONE MENTIONED HK IN AN ASKREDDIT THREAD ABOUT UR FAVORITE MUSIC" like chill do you need that sort of affirmation that your game is good
Hey, it’s gotten much better tbf
why the hell did this chat instantly wake up?
because ss never sleeps
Ppl that activly hate smth are just as bad as ppl that will blindly defend it and wont stop talking about it 24/7
Just look at undertale community
Its ok to like something but dont make it ur whole personality
Yeah that
And just imagine after you play silksong and finish it, and your dopamine receptors no longer fire when you play it again, will all the commotion have been worth it?
When silksong does eventually come out all this bickering isn't going to matter
It's gonna be a fantastic game, all I'm advocating for is thst we give the devil the time and space they need to do their work
I agree! I have to work now.
Cya guys later
Enjoy work pal
Bye
I'm sure their silence is fir good reason
Look it could be in the bug fixing stage for all we know
“aiming for 2022” 
Waiting for botw 2 and splatoon 3 
Another nintendo game to pirate 
And do we really need a blog post saying the found a bug in greymoor that causes the sprites to clip into the floor?
True. I’ll still be curious to hear what the game dev was like after the last blog post and what new directions and challenges TC faced.
Yo breath of the wild 2 is gonna be highly worthy of pog
See? This is what I'm talking about thank you
I hope TC is doing well
This is the year of GAMING
2017 p2
There will be plenty of time post release for them to talk to is about the challenges they faced
YES
2022 looking rather scrumptious
Cant wait for my most anticipated 2022 game, fifa 2022
That already released last year
2022 seems like a promising year for indie games.
Have a Nice Death in particular looking pretty pog
sans
Or in fact 2022 for games in general, even AAA games
Does tha still drift?
It actually drifts harder now, the controls are reversed out of the box
how is that a thing?
it's 2022 
They get money from people buying new controllers I guess
It's honestly idiotic that drift still exists
Its nintendo
Is thst usually a hardware issue?
Or is it generally a defect in the controller itself
Yeah hardware not firmware
i watched a teardown on it. it's a really preventable thing but they just don't bother
I believe it's something physical in the controller that smears around over time and stops the sensor working properly
As long as ppl keep buying their shit they wont fix it
Exactly, they get money from people having to buy new ones constantly
So they refuse to fix or even acknowledge it
And they have the audacity to charge and arm and a leg for them too
I mean they still charge full price for the games they made back when dinosaurs were alive
Its not like they care
Sounds like apple
Apple atleast somewhat tries to fix their stuff
I'm so glad I picked up a pro controller the same time as my switch, I don't know what kind of rage stick drift would've caused me
Why are so many games so rushed nowadays
because
Like the new fnaf games is glitchy as hell
mmmm cyberpunk
They don't polish everything before putting the product out
GOOD ONE 
Like seriously silksong Gon be the best game of the year with all the time the devs are taking
i dont even use my phone as a phone anymore. i use it as a 2nd monitor
Nah, elden ring 
mm i should get a new monitor but monitors are expensive zz
Who uses apple anyway CRINGE
its reliable tbh
I mean I got mine for cheap
Ppl who mostly use social media use apple usualy
not the best, but its pretty reliable for stuff
In what way
Gotta get it out in Christmas no exceptions even if the game is literally unplayable as long as it sells they're fine
you can use an iphone for a lot of stuff
btw im only talking about iphone because mac sucks zz
really? i thought it was the other way around. mac has the m1 chip which is epic
tho i think they have some version of it in the iphones now too
I had an iphone 5 once
Iphone is just way more streamlined while android just lets you do whatever the hell you want.
didn't like the interface
Mac is ass unfortunately, yeah
iphones may be good but expensive af, latest iphone costs like 2 monthly salaries in my country 
ive used a mac for a long time. barely any open source program supports mac. only those expensive ass programs exclusive to apple (but i have to say, final cut pro X is good. shame its mac exclusive)
I got my iphone 11 for a discount 2 years ago
oh and using mac for gaming is a fucking joke
Been using Xiaomi for the last 2 years. Honestly I'm ready to change lol
oh and dont try to run minecraft with shaders on mac. your mac will die
I used to have a macbook and what I would do Is just install windows 10 bootcamp and only use that
oh and one problem mac has
use mac emulator 
its not- customisable like a pc
nah i just use vegas now
i prefer fcp but vegas works fine
3 in mine
👍
Bomba
What is this?
it's facts
Damn
If only we had a fact for a silksong release date 
maybe before we go extinct as a species
unlikely though
do not disturb has no relation to being online
it's just saying leave me the fuck alone!
Invisible wasnt made so ppl dont bother u it was made so ppl dont bully u for being on discord all day, thats why i use it. 
TC's favourite feature
Team corn
Checking in - do we all still think Silksong exists?
did I ever tell you the definition of insanity
Are we sure silksong wasn’t just a fever dream
is there
The when the is the me when he the
it's coming out tomorrow. Trust
Source: Just trust me bro
ok Dregen
So bored rn
just play silksong dumb dumb
It not out
do u play destiny hoax?
I feel like I should stop thinking about SS. It's driving me insane everyday because I always anticipate it would release 'soon'.
I should try be patient and wait until TC finishes the game
No
weird coincidence then, carry on
never touched it and now I'm to scared to go in
Destiny 2?
leave the server. it should stop the impulse of constantly looking for news.
hm, do you have other hobbies? Nowadays I dont think much of it since I have other stuff and games to wait on
pretty basic answer I know but it does help with the wait if you basically forget about it
Thinking of making games myself, I could try doing that
its really hard to play catchup in Destiny ngl. i only kept up bc i used to play so i know what to do. can also get expensive
You should, also gl if you make games 
Damn
Thanks
That's a deep rabbit hole
forgetting about ss is the best way to speed up the time
did that with ori 2 and cuphead dlc and now they're here lmao
In my opinion destiny 2 is ruined right now they removed nearly everything so you. Have to pay too much to play a single 3 hour campaign also the game is 100 gigabytes in my opinion after this dlc they need to make a new one
basically what I do now but I enjoy checking in here every now and then
if i had a dollar for every "silksong is taking to long, ill do it myself" i could afford a PS5
I've made games before, just stopped making then due to school (and also the engine I used sucked ass).
I just want wrath of the machine and taken king back
well there was that one chinese lace fight demo remake which was actually super well made
silksong is taking too long, ill do it my self
now you can afford a ps5 and have 1 dollar to spare
Just curios what engine?
the plan was never to even have a D2, just expand and overhaul everything. Activision caused a big part of this mess
scratch im guessing 
Clickteam (I made cringy fnaf fan games)
They removed all the good stuff from d2 do u agree?
Trying to choose between Godot and Unity now for 2d games
Imo unity is better
fr fr a game I play alot is having a content update next week, and this whole time I completely forgot about the upcoming content update, tdy I found out and nwo time is slow 💀
yeah the removing of campain things is pretty shitty. but we cant undelete them
dang, what game is it?
i only play it for occasional raids with homies now
Although godot is taking off in popularity so idk
valorant
I dont exactly like it ,but got nothing b8 to do 💀
ah yes, neon. they finally embraced run and gun
I know that’s why I said they should make a new destiny or remake d1 because you only get like 9 hours of campaigns for like 100 gbp and u don’t even get any good exotics so you can’t do raids or anything and all the good exotics u have to buy
frfr, seems fun tho
they did omen dirty 
I wonder just how fast her sprint is
or the running inaccuracy
astra and viper out shines omen 
Godot is a bit easier to use but Unity is definitely better
i swear if i see neons running around with spectres and judges
im not sure, but all I know is I love mobility agents so imma love neon
astra is the most useless character in any game ever
for lower ranks, yeah. she's a must pick in higher play
astra is the most powerful controller..
like holy shit i left Destiny 2 after putting a bullet between ||Uldrens eyes|| now hes || a fucking guardian, abassador to our Cabal allies, the Queen is alive and well, theres a pyramid in the moon, theres Eliksni in the city, Saint is alive but Osiris is basically dead, and despite the hostile appearance of the upcoming DLC a Hive God wants to joinn the light. oh and we can use darkness now|| like wtf
she can control any place from anywhere
astra be like "wait lemme meditate"
she can play all sites at once esp since she has 5 stars :V
only down side for me with astra is her ult is risky to use, u can easily accidently provide an advantage for the enemy
yeah. technically she has 5 abilities too. i'm talking about the fake smokes she can do
Oh spoiler btw || the hive are going to get ghosts from the hive queen Cus she can control the light ||
All I know about Destiny is GRIND
Ye they removed skill and fun
oh yeah ive seen the trailers. but || that might be a lie from Savathuun as well. earlier this year a guardian named Shayura lost her mind, killed stasis weilding guardians, and in a trials match, almost killed an innocent guardian bc she hallucinated Hive. ||
All u see in pvp is people using auto aim guns
nah i can still enjoy pvp and i suck, just gotta find my new playstyle
True in my opinion this needs to be the last dlc Cus they have like 4 planned but the game is too big and bad
All opinion tho
just get everyone ps5s so we can handle a 300GB game

Game makers don’t even care about players opinions much any more 😐
I prefer Xbox lol and I already have a series x
🤢
i want the world to expand, not reset, but they obv have issues doing that so 
i can only hope they do what is planned out well
Ikr
It’s in possible for them to do that tho
my Xbox one started to decline way before my PS4, I need to upgrade, ps4 dying and im sick of cleaning it and replacing things
mental that ps5s are still out of stock
L
What's a PS5? I have a PS4
not so much completely out, but that to avoid scalpers nobody is selling them at normal prices or without a bundle
I got a ps5 before silksong came out. dang
800$ ps5, 4 games, 2 controllers
the 2 rarest thinhgs
lol
not a bad deal I guess
I got mine November 2020 by spam clicking for four hours straight on the Best Buy page because nobody knew exactly what time the restock was
Bruh PS5 cost $1500 here
yeah except the games arent worth 200 nor do i need 2 remotes
