Ugh but imagine the Crimson from Terraria🤢

Also hydrogen sulfide sometimes smells like gasoline mixed with rotten egg smell

hazy summit
#

I love gasoline smell

uncut citrus
#

Cornifer mention how fungal waste smells bad, but doesnt say anything about forgotten crossroad, so it cant smell too bad

distant crown
#

we talk about infected crossroads

hazy summit

#

eh i cant imaging infection smells too bad...

hazy summit
#

Smelling it could literally kill youzote

#

void doesnt seem like something that would have a smell

#

yeah

The air is very still down there so I don’t think any smell can like pass through it

What does defenders crest smell like

there's probably lots of decaying meat all over the place if its feeding all those flukes

the whole point of a waterway is to cleanse other places of filth

What do Hollow Knight zones TASTE like

does void smell like anything

#

Hamburger with void

#

Cornifer literally mention it, saying it doesnt smell bad

tawny basalt
#

VGS void given smell

stark estuary
#

Royal Waterways doesn't smell like much because the rain washed everything away, but Cornifer says that it'd probably have smelled pretty shit when Hallownest was up and running (pun intended)

#

There isnt dung everywhere, only at ogrim's place

stark estuary
#

Cornifer also mentions that he can still smell FW while in RW

wary copper
#

i'd assume greenpath would just smell real humid and fresh, on the count of all the moss doing its thing

stark estuary

So FW takes the cake for smelliest area

vivid belfry
#

alright let's talk about the spool in deep docks

hollow terrace
#

Thank you grover

vivid belfry
#

this motherfucker gives you TWELVE notches of silk in the demo

hazy summit
vivid belfry
#

that's like a full starting spool plus an extra skill if the final game still uses 9 notches for binding

#

which, you know, I hope it does. I don't necessarily think it's gamebreaking to have 8 but I like things that come in 3's

hazy summit
#

Ok but remember that you need a lot of silk in this game

true vine
radiant wraith
hollow terrace
#

It’s the game BEGGING you to use your skills rather than holding onto it incase of healing

vivid belfry
hazy summit
true vine
#

maybe in some later game area there's another damage sponge

vivid belfry
#

you need a full STARTING spool to bind, and only 3 notches (as of the demo) to use skills

hazy summit
#

oh well

vivid belfry
#

anyway, binding being faster than focus doesn't mean healing constantly is going to be the new meta

#

healing speed doesn't mean anything if you're not constantly pumping in new silk, and enemies in silksong are faster, more aggressive, and have better defensive options, which means it's not as easy to get in a lot of hits

hazy summit
vivid belfry
#

all it really means is that the pace of combat is going to be faster and healing is going to be more consistently available within fights instead of just during staggers

dusty nimbus
#

I just realized we passed 6th of May feelsgrubman

true vine
hollow terrace
#

Wooo I love dueling where the enemy hits me once and I hit them once

vivid belfry
hazy summit
vivid belfry
#

but this only refers to the beginning of the game, and won't apply at the end

dusty nimbus
vivid belfry
#

when you have 9 masks instead of 5, you only need to be at 6 masks to pop a full value bind, and you will use significantly less than your full spool to do it

dusty nimbus
vivid belfry
#

unless you just don't get health and spool upgrades for some reason

#

even the very first mask upgrade is going to be HUGELY influential in changing the pace of combat in your favor

hazy summit
#

is there any info about the spool upgrades?

vivid belfry
#

no, all we know is that they exist

#

but I'm going off the assumption that they will be given to you wholesale and increase your spool length by one at a time, instead of being given to you in fragments

#

just because there's not really any reason to use fragments like there was in HK

hazy summit
#

Spool upgrades mean that you'll need less silk for healing ?

vivid belfry
#

less as a percentage of your maximum spool

#

TC specifically said that binding only takes up your whole STARTING spool

hazy summit
#

oh nice

silver oak
#

I was right

hazy summit
#

And what's the starting pool
I forgot

silver oak
#

Did they say that in edge

hazy summit
#

how many segments does the starting pool have?

silver oak
#

somewhere between 8 and 12

vivid belfry
#

8 in the demo, 9 in edge magazine

hazy summit
#

sounds fair

silver oak
#

so you could theoretically be able to bind twice in a row

hazy summit
#

it's like hollow knight (similar)
3 hits for healing one mask
9 hits for healing three masks

vivid belfry
#

I mean it depends on how many spool upgrades there are but I would imagine so

silver oak
#

is the amount of hearts bind heals capped at 3?

vivid belfry
#

as far as we know, binding is a flat cost of 9 notches for 3 masks, but this will probably be altered by some passive tools

#

and/or crests

silver oak
#

that's on par with the rate in HK

hazy summit
vivid belfry
#

I think that would be a good number

hazy summit
#

That would also mean that late game bosses would require you to heal a lot

vivid belfry
#

I think a lot of the discussion around binding is too focused on its speed somehow unbalancing it and they forget that it has a material cost

silver oak
#

that would mean you can bind twice only on absolute max, which I think is a good reward

vivid belfry
#

binding twice in a row would require you to hit an enemy eighteen times

#

unless there's some tool that is as fucked as soul eater at generating extra silk (which I doubt)

silver oak
#

well it would require having a full spool

#

I'm a pretty safe player especially when it comes to healing

vivid belfry
#

yes, 9 starting plus 9 upgrades (hypothetically)

#

while I'm rewatching the trailer I also want to reiterate one of my favorite improvements over HK and the reason gathering swarm is probably dead in SS

#

rosaries and shell shards lose horizontal momentum over time, and pretty quickly

#

which means enemy currency drops naturally cluster close together instead of flying all over the goddamn place

silver oak
#

ahhh
so they don't fly off the screen as easily

#

that is big ur right

hazy summit
silver oak
#

oh ttacco was talking about this the other day

vivid belfry
#

ehhh, I'm not a fan of chance based passives

hollow sundial
vivid belfry
#

it wouldn't be that hard to just keep track of the number of hits and guarantee a double every third hit

hazy summit
silver oak
#

I don't remember what he said but it was something zote

vivid belfry
#

and perhaps even show this to the player visually

silver oak
#

yeah percentages are a lot less intuitive and strategic than simply every other or every third action

hollow sundial
hazy summit
#

What about a critic damage tool?

silver oak
#

if you have a critical hit on certain attacks, for instance, you can strategically time it to maximize damage

silver oak
#

I think tools will allow players to be a lot more strategic in gameplay itself

vivid belfry
#

do you specifically mean red tools

silver oak
#

Like in HK, the charm strategy was more or less entirely on the bench

hazy summit
#

wait but imagine critical hit in tas speedruns,
you could manipulate rng

hollow sundial
silver oak
#

But with active tools there are things that affect the world itself, or possibly things that could give you limited powerups off of the bench like the lifeblood syringe

hazy summit
#

Haiku the robot has a chip that gives you a 10% of chance of critical damage
Sounds like a very low percentage

distant crown
#

aaaah

hazy summit
#

Haiku's bosses were way too easy tho
It doesn't really matter

hazy summit
vivid belfry
#

demo footage rewatch report: coals in deep docks are weak as fuck

hazy summit
#

Ok but I wonder what the silk pool upgrades will do in Silksong
Apart of giving you more space for silk

vivid belfry
#

you can stand in one spot for almost a full second at least without taking damage

silver oak
#

I think they're just there as a tutorial for sprinting

#

But yeah, if you can walk over them and still not get hurt it's a shit tutorial

hazy summit
#

can you walk normally on the coal?

hollow sundial
vivid belfry
#

you can probably just walk over them

vivid belfry
#

also I'm not sure sprinting needs a tutorial zote

silver oak
#

It depends on how big the regions are before it resets

vivid belfry
hollow sundial
hazy summit
silver oak
vivid belfry
#

actually you can get that fragment with the airdash (which is probably the same upgrade)

hollow sundial
vivid belfry
true vine
hazy summit
vivid belfry
#

actually make it more like 2 hornet widths

silver oak
#

By airdash you mean the diagonal pogo/dash?

vivid belfry
hazy summit
#

Now the real question
Will there be a double jump

vivid belfry
#

I hope SS doesn't have a double jump tbh, it would invalidate the grapple for lategame combat

silver oak
hollow sundial
#

prob not traditionally

vivid belfry
hazy summit
#

I hope too
Although there's something similar in Seth fight
I think it let you to kinda parachute and fall slower

vivid belfry
#

it's much MUCH shorter than the dash in hollow knight but compensated by the fact that sprint speed is kept in midair

silver oak
#

Oh that is indeed a midair dash

hollow sundial
#

you can bet your ass people will make gossamer skips as they did fireball skips in hk

silver oak
#

Don't know how I missed that one

vivid belfry
#

dash on the ground is similarly short without sprint (good for micropositioning) and has a cooldown on par with dashmaster

hazy summit
#

Did she pogo the air?

silver oak
vivid belfry
silver oak
#

It's fluid to the point that I didn't notice it at all until you pointed it out zote

vivid belfry
#

the theory for a while was that she grabbed the ledge but she clearly plays the bounce animation

silver oak
#

That looks like a bug

vivid belfry
#

what's fucked up is that she bounces but there are no particles which means she didn't even hit a ghost object

silver oak
#

NO ONE SAY NOTHING

hazy summit
#

A bug, of course she's a bug zote

(half bug)

wary copper
#

wyrm's just worm but different

#

he just got powers

hazy summit
#

I thing this thing is replacing double jump
I still don't understand what it is

vivid belfry
#

yeah, I just reviewed the footage that glitchy ledgegrab is from, and the particles don't even show up on the floor

silver oak
#

That's like the opposite of a double jump tho
You go down zote

vivid belfry
#

I'm pretty sure that's a glide move

#

the player only activate it for an instant, using it more like a buffer

hazy summit
wary copper
#

poof dress for extra airtime

vivid belfry
#

you can see she moves almost horizontally while it's up, to the point where people initially thought it was an alternative dash

uncut citrus
#

yeah, it was probably just tapped there but if you hold you can glide
if it could only make you glide for that amout of time it would kinda suck

silver oak
#

Oh I was thinking of the diagonal dash
I see what you meant

hazy summit
silver oak
#

read that as "pogoed the child"

uncut citrus
#

but she does some poof dress thing

hazy summit
#

yeet the child

hazy summit
distant crown
uncut citrus
vivid belfry
#

hornet's dash would suck without sprint as another example

hazy summit
#

Ohhhhh, that now makes Sense

hazy summit
vivid belfry
#

you hold the dash button to sprint

#

if you just tap it, you move forward a set distance that's about half the length of the knight's dash

#

it's very nice that her ground and air dashes have different animations

hazy summit
#

You think the dash and sprint will be unlocked as only one ability?

uncut citrus
#

yeah she doesnt pogo it, dress goes poof quirrelgroovin

vivid belfry
#

yes

vivid belfry
#

hornet's dash is straight garbage without sprint speed

hazy summit
uncut citrus
distant crown
vivid belfry
#

also, it seems like hornet uses her voice for every other attack/jump she does

hazy summit
#

I wonder if you'll be able to deactivate her voice
At least for when using abilities

silver oak
#

this is why it took 3 years for makito koji to finish her lines

hazy summit
#

What if she finished long time ago

vivid belfry
#

honestly hornet's voice is far less intrusive than any non-silent protagonist in her exertion sounds

silver oak
#

She probably did ngl

vivid belfry
#

ritual of the night this is not

silver oak
#

I wonder what voice recording sessions for SS sound like

silver oak
#

Ari and William going "ok and now go HAA"

hazy summit
#

GArana

wary copper
#

ig they just tell em to make sounds

silver oak
#

I think they have specific sounds in mind because when they were asked about git gud they said the actual phrase is "gekdu"

vivid belfry
#

alright, it seems to me like hornet basically has the exact same jump physics as the knight

#

people who play the demo describe her as "heavy" but I'm pretty sure I know the reason for this

silver oak
#

She's bigger, the world's bigger

uncut citrus
wary copper
#

poof

vivid belfry
#

well the world doesn't have much to do with it

#

I'm sure her sprite size is impacting peoples' perception though

radiant wraith
#

I mean, it'd be weird if she fell faster

silver oak
#

But wouldn't a bigger sprite make it seem floatier?

hazy summit
silver oak
#

here, I assume
people who actually played the demo

uncut citrus
#

It was said somewhere, thought i cant remember where, but it is confirmed

silver oak
#

grover's been around since pre-trailer days

wary copper
#

she's not as small

silver oak
#

@vivid belfry didn't you solve one of the leth riddles?

vivid belfry
#

yes, the second half of the seth riddle

silver oak
#

epic

uncut citrus
vivid belfry
tawny basalt
#

I’m debating doing the trick

hazy summit
#

Maybe they worked on that and made her slightly lighter
Maybe by zooming out a little in the bossfights

vivid belfry
#

if you shrunk down the knight to be half its height, it would seem WAY lighter

hazy summit
#

Wait
Will the game zoom in and zoom out?

uncut citrus
#

Dont do it, Tonio...

vivid belfry
#

and by comparsion a giant knight would look like it could barely get off the ground

tawny basalt
#

Okay

vivid belfry
silver oak
#

that makes sense
yeah I can visualize it by picturing a big knight

radiant wraith
#

Or doesn't get off the ground at all

#

Kinda

silver oak
#

Wasn't there a big knight/small knight mod

hazy summit
tawny basalt
#

Giga knight

hazy summit
#

Or maybe she falls a lil bit faster now

serene chasm
#

fall damage

radiant wraith
#

That'd be weird

hazy summit
#

Just slightly faster

radiant wraith
#

Heavier things don't fall faster

hazy summit
#

I know but

silver oak
#

they can in video games

radiant wraith
#

Yeah

tawny basalt
#

Speaking about a fall damage did you know that squirrels can’t die from falling?

silver oak
#

reality? what's that? we have talking bugs in our game

rancid crow
hazy summit
#

what if they made the mistake of making her fall slower than normal
Just slightly

rancid crow
uncut citrus
#

like most bugs

tawny basalt
#

Yeah, the fun fact everyone knows

opaque sigil
# rancid crow More dense

Gravitational acceleration is a constant
Aerodynamics can affect fall speed due to air resistance, not weight

hazy summit
#

But the Vessels die from falling in HK

serene chasm
#

but whats heavier? a kg of Hornet or a kg of Knight?

silver oak
tawny basalt
radiant wraith
opaque sigil
#

heavy and light things both fall fast
flat things fall slower because they slap the air

hazy summit
#

So maybe Hollow Knight world is human sized

hazy summit
uncut citrus
radiant wraith
#

Actually, Hornet falls faster because Pharloom is closer to the center of bug Earth

vivid belfry
#

anyway here's the most important things we know about silksong from the demo material:

  1. tool repair is automatic on bench sit
  2. iframes are much shorter than HK, and the impact freeze frames are shorter
  3. Katie was terrorized by fleas in her past
silver oak
#

last one should be moved up

hazy summit
#

My theory is that Bugs have a similar size to us in hk world
And they have developed bones

elfin swift
#

dude fleas and bedbugs and infestation bugs can be terrifying

#

like the way they completely destroy your sense of security in your own clothes and home

coarse leaf
#

i have never in my life seen or heard about someone i know seeing a bedbug i think they're an elaborate lie

hazy summit
#

I've never seen one

elfin swift
#

not at all surprised people can get ptsd from bad bedbug infestations

silver oak
tawny basalt
hazy summit
tawny basalt
#

Okay

radiant wraith

you know the flourishes at the top and bottom of text boxes in both games?

hazy summit
#

yeahhh

#

I don't remember actually

vivid belfry
#

in hollow knight, the ends of those flourishes are curled downward, but in HK, they're curled up

#

except hornet's dialogue, which ends in horizontal points

silver oak
#

Oh text boxes nvm

vivid belfry
#

I think the pharloom vs hallownest text box flourish is supposed to call back to that idea of descent vs ascent

hazy summit

#

Shhh everyone, takes notes right away this will be on the test

dusty nimbus
#

So you're saying she'll be the middle ground and bring true balance to the force?

opaque sigil
#

It's a way to distinguish speakers, HK never needed it but SS does

vivid belfry
#

I mean Tammo's thing is definitely why hornet has different text boxes

hazy summit
dusty nimbus
#

Darth Hornetius

opaque sigil
#

like the only times where there were multiple speakers in HK were the two encounters with the three dreamers, and those are confusing as hell because of it

coarse leaf
#

cant believe hornet is going to fire the halo array in an attempt to rid the galaxy of the flood

vivid belfry
#

more realistically, HK text boxes are supposed to look like gothic architecture, pharloom is supposed to look angelic, and hornet is supposed to look like needles

primal oriole
#

for Hornet it goes to the side because that’s you stab someone

so you're trying to tell me that hornet made a deal with Chaos and is attempting to conquer the galaxy with her 20 transhuman demigod sons?

I've never heard of anyone in the US talking about it

yeah we have fanta

#

Sprite is better tho

I listen to sprite cranberry commercial bass boosted for 1 hour

hazy summit

weird cause never i have listened to anyone talk about it

languid linden

We have like uhh Coke, Fanta, Sprite, Dr. Pepper, 7Up, and some others I'm forgetting I bet

vivid belfry

our fanta is different

hazy summit
#

What's cranberry
Is it from the Coca-cola company?

vivid belfry
#

isn't fanta in other countries basically carbonated fruit juice

#

like actual orange juice

hazy summit
#

Hete it's orange carbonated juice

#

How's fanta in the US

silver oak
#

That sounds better than what we have

vivid belfry
#

it's carbonated water with orange flavored syrup

silver oak
#

Ours is pumped full of sugar
Like 60 grams of it

hazy summit
silver oak
#

There's also fanta grape and strawberry and some other ones I think

hasty oar
#

there was some cool fun fact I knew about how fanta was first made that I forgot

#

something to do with nazi germany I think?

silver oak
hasty oar
#

ah yeah here it is, germany couldn't import coke syrup so coca-cola made fanta as a substitute

hazy summit
#

Our fanta has the color of the right one but carbonated

silver oak
#

That's like uhhh
orangina

#

looks like it too

hazy summit
#

The one of the left looks like actual juice

hasty oar
#

the right one looks like it's radioactive or something

burnt topaz
#

right one looks good

hasty oar
#

most gatorades look like that tbh

burnt topaz
#

i can taste both of those

hazy summit
#

This is what it looks like in my country, but a lil bit more orange than yellow

#

So you are saying that Fanta in the US is not carbonated?

#

also, we only have the classic flavor

vivid belfry
#

okay we do have the same fanta then

hazy summit
#

Capitalism-discussion

vivid belfry
#

because yes it is carbonated

#

by the way it's been a while since I posted some SS frame data that nobody cares about; I want to highlight a small improvement between the trailer and the demo

hazy summit
vivid belfry
#

in the trailer, hornet's pogo registers a hit at least one frame before the enemy actually takes damage, so it looks like she cancels out of the dive animation before she actually hits anything

wary copper
#

fanta up here looks like that too

hearty tendon
#

Ss frame data...And i almost thought you gonna speedrun silksong hypothetically

vivid belfry
#

it the demo footage, she starts bouncing on the same frame that she impacts a surface

#

oh I'm definitely speedrunning silksong for the rest of my life

#

I still speedrun HK from time to time

hearty tendon
#

I mean nobody stopping you from speculating on how to speedrun silkong

hope ill find one particular bench thats extra comfy so ill leave my first save there forever

I personally have a hard time deciding

many people who have "died" and have been brought back to life by the witchcraft that some call "modern medicine" describe it as a very comforting darkness, but many other unrelated accounts described it as being able to see themselves from a third person point of view, sometimes with family members or strangers (or even monsters) in the room with them

those are the most common descriptions of death

yeah let’s not talk about taht though

I attempted to complete a steel soul file not that long ago and had alot of death
thought my furthest one was like 3:40min in

i did half-died 12h in, where i saved quited when i was about to die, so it feels like dying but i didnt actually die...

vocal moth

i do too

vivid belfry

steel soul is pretty easy to grind out now that godmaster exists

uncut citrus

thought i did had 100% already and got Radiance, so its not like im getting any achivement out of this steel soul file anymore anyways

#

i just dont want to lose tose 12h of my time noot

vivid belfry
#

if you can do pantheon of hallownest or especially radiants, you should have no problem with boss fights

#

whats sad is that since I had just bought HK on PC I did a run through on normal and did it deathless (I have the game on switch also)

uncut citrus

I did die twice on NKG but thats a dream fight so you could keep going on SS

vocal moth

I did 101% the game in 12 hours

of course I never died to a boss in steel soul attempts, I got done in by Sheo's fucking driveway
