sk-discussion

[opaque sigil]

Hopefully indirect

[stark prism]

probably a very drawn out area with a single background theme

[cedar trench]

would it be white palace-y or more like its own area

[opaque sigil]

The citadel itself seems like it's probably pretty big

[cedar trench]

ala qg

[stark prism]

it would most likely look like the citadel parts we already seen

[cedar trench]

yeah makes sense

[opaque sigil]

I wouldn't be surprised if the citadel has multiple areas

[stark prism]

or maybe it could have a darker subarea with those weird silkpipes

[cedar trench]

i have such a weird feeling we will visit it before getting into endgame proper

[opaque sigil]

yeah the edge thing kinda hinted at that

[brittle garnet]

Citadel is probably gonna be an area that you aren't gonna be able to clear all at once, you're gonna have to leave and re-visit it, probably. If not, it would be a very big area, at least.

[cedar trench]

ah nice

[cedar trench]

:thatswhatimsaying:

[stark prism]

maybe this is some sort of blueprint/miniaturisation of something in the citadel

[brittle garnet]

the Citadel will also probably have potentially up to 2 sub-areas

[opaque sigil]

“The initial hook is to get to the Citadel, which is at the top of the world. And then, you know, the next thing players might be presented with is, ‘Get to the top of the Citadel’.”

[stark prism]

yeah most likely one of them is this one with the supermario tubes

[opaque sigil]

possibly in the same vein that getting to CoT was the "initial hook" for HK

[brittle garnet]

cause both the Clocktower and this whole supposed Vault seem to be inside the Citadel.

[brittle garnet]

actually probably not

[stark prism]

that's probably the gilded city tho

[opaque sigil]

that might not be an area but it is probably at least near the entrance of the citadel

[brittle garnet]

this looks like it's a one-off room, the pipes here are actually visible throughout many places in the Citadel

[stark prism]

since it seems to share world and enemy design dna with the city of tears

[brittle garnet]

tbf we do not know what the "Gilded City" is

[stark prism]

yeah and they probably lead to some sort of sealed up beast

[opaque sigil]

"gilded city" isn't really an area name and there's no reason to treat it as mutually exclusive with "citadel"

[stark prism]

its the yellow city area that got them flying cultists

[cedar trench]

what even is the trilobite anyway

[brittle garnet]

that be the Citadel

[stark prism]

we gonna find out in silksong

[keen blaze]

gg ez, Suspreme©™️ clamari 1st try, Ark of the Cosmos OP.

[opaque sigil]

no indication of what it is

[cedar trench]

splendid

[stark prism]

nah there be a second one with those flying about

[cedar trench]

i feel like the closest thing we got to a citadel model is the trobbio room bg

[opaque sigil]

common speculation is that it's the tomb for Herrah's husband but that's kinda just a guess

[stark prism]

she a spider she prolly ate he body

[brittle garnet]

those guys are called "The Citadel's Caste", so I'm pretty sure all places they're in are the Citadel

most

[stark prism]

oh like they aint allowed to leave and enforce stuff in them city urban sites

[opaque sigil]

I mean they could have some presence throughout the kingdom but the only place that would be heavily populated by them would probably be the citadel

[cedar trench]

@stark prism the cultist like guys have been proven to be incredibly late game enemies capable of manipulating silk itself

[stark prism]

and the city is most likely somewhere close to the citadel

[brittle garnet]

like, maybe
inside of it

[stark prism]

they seem like city of tears guards to me

[opaque sigil]

not necessarily super late game, if citadel is first accessed in any capacity mid game

[cedar trench]

this is also true considering previous statements

[coarse leaf]

they will be at citadel 2

[stark prism]

swag soul manipulating enemies are in them early midgames in hollow knight tho

[brittle garnet]

the scoop is that this area here is the Citadel. There's evidence for it, and no evidence against it

[stark prism]

looks like rooftops to me

lemme grab le swag image with le swag bell city place

[brittle garnet]

the name "Gilded City" was never visually linked to anything, in fact it wasn't ever linked to anything at all

[stark prism]

what kinda new revelation is that?

[brittle garnet]

it's not new at all

it's been like this from the start

[opaque sigil]

"gilded city" could even refer to the bell town between greymoor and the swamp

though there is a town that's also more aligned with the citadel visually

[stark prism]

das da one i be speaking aboot

[brittle garnet]

we can see that that town is the same area as this screenshot, though

[opaque sigil]

that town doesn't seem to be a full area or really have any enemies in it

[brittle garnet]

it has identical architecture

[cedar trench]

also i want to go back on my previous statement and say there definitely could be a CoT husk guard thing going on

[formal karma]

oh, shit, actual discussion and im missing it

[opaque sigil]

this one doesn't have identical architecture

[cerulean tree]

there it is! the silksong!

[opaque sigil]

this is much closer

[ivory sluice]

oh shit actual silksong discussion i need to get out of here asap

[brittle garnet]

oh yeah this one's separate, of course

[cedar trench]

two enemies, they look similar with similar weapons and are in the same area
one part of the other area is mid game while the other is late game
husk guards are bulky but arent hard to defeat at all
great husk guards are bulky and hard to attack without proper tools )also lovely 2 mask damage oh yeah)

[opaque sigil]

this one is probably the same town as the second one I posted, and may be like the same room

[cerulean tree]

i really hope tc hasnt blurred the background as much for places like this

[formal karma]

them sadbois look a little run-down ngl

[opaque sigil]

The xbox trailer kinda exaggerated the actual blur

the screenshots on the xbox page are much better

[cedar trench]

i feel like the image quality is kinda 🥴 in this case

[cerulean tree]

hopefully

[cerulean tree]

well thats a relief

[formal karma]

the blurr was always strange to me, ah well

[brittle garnet]

the Clocktower is probably in the Citadel as well

[opaque sigil]

it could be, yeah

[cerulean tree]

id say sub-area of greymoor

[brittle garnet]

or very close to it, at least
well, there's a possibility that another place far away is very linked to the Citadel, but that'd be a little odd

[cedar trench]

depends what tower are we talking about

[brittle garnet]

judging from what?

[cedar trench]

the clock tower with gears is defo around the citadel

[cerulean tree]

the colorpallet

[cedar trench]

the warlord bamboo tower is in greymoor

[brittle garnet]

this is the Clocktower

[cedar trench]

or at least somewhere around there

[cerulean tree]

oh yeah i was talking about that one

[opaque sigil]

the clocktower seems like it's a good deal darker than the surrounding areas with the light spilling in through the clock face

[cerulean tree]

ahhh yeah than i agree looks citadely

[opaque sigil]

light which is, notably, golden in hue

[cedar trench]

the warlord tower with the spools has to be in my opinion the most interesting area shown yet

[brittle garnet]

I don't think the "Warlord Bamboo Tower" is actually a tower at all, nor do i think it belongs to a warlord, it seems to be a giant thread production facility

[cedar trench]

vertically aligned area screenshots i guess

[cerulean tree]

ikr hyped as shit for the boss at the top

[cedar trench]

the burrowing man feels like a miniboss in my opinion

then again its speculation

[brittle garnet]

it might just be a vertical tunnel in the ground, tho ig it could be a tower
It's definitely used to spin silk into thread, anyhow

[cedar trench]

yes that

[cerulean tree]

the centipede tridant fella?

[cedar trench]

they also seem to gather silk from those weird metal objects

[brittle garnet]

the trident fella really just looks like a generic but strong-ish enemy

[cerulean tree]

looked like a boss to me at first but i guess he wasnt shown in the boss part of the trailer so normal enemy/mini boss

[brittle garnet]

those seem to just catch silk floating through the air

which brings up the interesting point that silk just kinda floats through the air in Pharloom (maybe only in Greymoor?)

[opaque sigil]

trident bug certainly looks like its area is designed to fight it but it could just be a tough enemy like a crossguard from HK

[cedar trench]

yknow looking at the fact that silk threads spill from enemies when you hit them and greymoor being a cemetery....

[brittle garnet]

well, one part of Greymoor we saw, is a cemetery

[serene chasm]

Trident bug is totally a boss. Though more cool Unique hard enemies would be cool

[brittle garnet]

I think Greymoor is the population center where the workers and poor bugs live

[cedar trench]

that is also a good bet

[opaque sigil]

considering that from what we've seen trident bug doesn't do anything mmc didn't do I hope it's not a boss but then again it probably (hopefully) has different attacks

charging and then burrowing does not a fun boss make

[brittle garnet]

it has farms of various kinds, the tavern(?), you get the Reaper crest there

[cedar trench]

silksong will probably have its mmc but i feel like since combat is going to be so intricate its less of a mmc and more of a master koga

[cedar trench]

the reaper crest does look like those sun shaped staffs the fuckers wield

[brittle garnet]

yeah
I think it's called Reaper not because of relations to death and such but because you get it from the farmer area

[coarse leaf]

gimm trup made of farmers confirmed?

[serene chasm]

Seems a lot faster than mmc though

And it's kinda hard to judge a boss from a 2 second clip

[cerulean tree]

tf is mmc

[cedar trench]

i mean it could easily be both all we saw from the greymoor shots is that cemetery and the bamboo area

[coarse leaf]

massive moss charger

the greenpath boss that is massive and charges

and is covered in moss

[cerulean tree]

ah that one charging moss thing that also charges

[brittle garnet]

Greymoor seems to be home to farms and production sites and stuff
they got the windmills and poles in the ground that catch silk from the air, and a giant loom to spin it into thread
there's also the "Dustroaches" which seem to be some kind of farm animal, otherwise why'd they keep them
the "Cook bug" also seems to be melting down fat, probably to make it into candles

[cedar trench]

cook bug?

[errant dome]

ass jim?

[brittle garnet]

i will not fucking call it that

[opaque sigil]

idk why you would assume it's melting down fat as opposed to just cooking but it's possible

[coarse leaf]

escape for however long you want

you will not be free of it for long

[opaque sigil]

he's also not alone in the room and that other bug is dead with a bladed weapon lying on the ground, maybe that's the butcher

and ig these are probably the pots

[errant dome]

reapeat after me, ass jim

[brittle tangle]

Ass Jim

[fallow rock]

where ass jim resides

[opaque sigil]

also based on this it's possible that that pot opens up after the fight and Hornet has to jump in for... some reason
or that that's where she came from

[fallow rock]

so would that ass jim had a family that was killed

[coarse leaf]

dead bug's ghost watching as jim uses his ass to fight off someone:

[brittle tangle]

Ass Matilda

[brittle garnet]

well, this is a fair criticism, but first of all, there is off-white residue on their aprons and on the rims of the vats at the bottom, I don't think meat or soup would necessarily be this color, or build up residue like that
also we saw a place with a bunch of candles in the same area, and there is established precedent that this area may have this farming and production purpose

[opaque sigil]

ig that room has three points of possible entry, with the door on the left being definite and the ceiling and pot/the area behind the pot being potential ones

[opaque sigil]

fair

[brittle garnet]

i mean it sure could be soup, but I think tallow for candles is a cooler explanation

[opaque sigil]

ig they could be responsible for both

there are darker splotches too, and it would be a waste not to use the meat

[brittle garnet]

in the background there are even things which look a lot like candles, too

IN FACT

[cerulean sable]

i think the other sue chefs died not because he killed him but from other causes but thats just me

unless they go full cannibal story then they do them

[opaque sigil]

idk it kinda stands out enough that it doesn't look placed there, plus there's the loose weapon halfway across the room

like if it was just a corpse why wouldn't TC just put the blade right next to it

[brittle garnet]

the vat in the middle is bigger than the rest, and the weird grate thing aligns perfectly with it

and you know how candles irl were made?
THAT'S RIGHT, ON RACKS BEING DIPPED INTO VATS OF WAX

[coarse leaf]

two giant asses fighting each other to decide who gets to eat?

[opaque sigil]

alright, I'm convinced

[cerulean sable]

also i dont remember but did HK placed specific particle per platform or did they just do a flat "this area will emit this type of particles"

so this isnt new right

[opaque sigil]

I don't really remember

[cerulean sable]

also didnt we see a fuckton of candles during the dead guy scene

[opaque sigil]

yes

[cerulean sable]

i am not in the mood to open up the game, just so i can test greenpath walk particles

[opaque sigil]

lotta candles

[cerulean sable]

also i dont know a good room as an environment

yeah

honestly i FEEL like this is gonna be an ability or a crest

heavily leaning on the former

[opaque sigil]

considering crests are physical objects it'd be weird to be a crest unless Hornet had to like gut the poor bastard to pull it out

[serene chasm]

New ability. Sleep

[south rock]

Why hello there chat

[cerulean sable]

look you know where my point of view for crest comes from

[keen blaze]

[opaque sigil]

but like also the silk flashing around her doesn't make sense if she's just cutting something open to get something inside

[cerulean sable]

which is why im siding with the "its part of the blood" angle

[surreal mortar]

When Silksong comes out are you guys gonna use the wayward compass equivalent or not?

[south rock]

Wait wut

[cerulean sable]

yeah

[opaque sigil]

but is there a crest that grants a slim chance to make another attack

[cerulean sable]

honestly first playthrough im activating it

like a chance thingy?

[surreal mortar]

I had an idea that maybe the “wanderer” crest gives you the ability to see hornet on the map.

Might make sense

[grave snow]

yeah

[opaque sigil]

linking a compass analogue to a crest or tool is a disproportionate cost compared to its HK iteration

[brittle garnet]

I still think the EDGE writer was mistaken about that

[coarse leaf]

i would hate that

[south rock]

Is that just my not perfect vision or are there some candles unlit

[surreal mortar]

Well we don’t really know how the system works yet tbf

[sinful flare]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/586931790208434203/986060614927527956/solksing.gif

[coarse leaf]

not being able to use other crests for combat just so that you can see yourself on the map is stupid

[cerulean sable]

honestly i FEEL like the compass is gonna be a toggleable feature now instead of needing a tool slot

[marsh ibex]

Even linking to a crest would suck

[opaque sigil]

yes to a tool

[marsh ibex]

Just make it toggable on the map

[sinful flare]

hu

[surreal mortar]

Nah like you’d have the actual tool if you wanted to use it with a specific crest but you could also use a crest instead if that makes sense

[opaque sigil]

compass doesn't compete with stronger charms on a 1:1 basis because it's much cheaper

[serene chasm]

Also it should be always off in silksoul

[opaque sigil]

imagine if compass costed three notches

[marsh ibex]

That would be a suitable challenge increase for silk soul imo

[south rock]

Pls let there be a crest that make funni projectile when attack
Pls team cherry

[coarse leaf]

and then you only get like 3 more notches throughout the game

[cerulean sable]

ok before we continue

[cerulean sable]

https://youtu.be/bNcXRUzYS1o?t=17

[south rock]

Better make me invincible when holding a map or something

[serene chasm]

Oh shit. Ds3 is coming?

[fiery coral]

Man the DS3 trailers were so good

[cerulean sable]

thats all i just wanted the comparison

[coarse leaf]

its just a rumour

[fiery coral]

Such good music choices

[cerulean sable]

0:09 is a lie tho you cant outpoise those fucking knights even with miracles

[serene chasm]

How many different markers should there be?

[cerulean sable]

honestly

[south rock]

17

[cerulean sable]

make it unlimited

[south rock]

Nvm make it unlimited

[cerulean sable]

and make it in rainbows

[opaque sigil]

also in case it wasn't clear that was a joke about the crest of Indech

[cerulean sable]

In Rainbows

the 2007 album by award winning British Rock Band Radiohead

[serene chasm]

They should do it like elden rings imo.

[grave snow]

yeah

[cerulean sable]

look i dont remember all of the crests ok

[south rock]

in june

[cerulean sable]

other than Felix' absolutely destroys everything

[opaque sigil]

fraldarius is only good early game

[sinful flare]

i want a CREST that makes you DIE in ONE HIT

[cerulean sable]

those crit procs hgnggggggggggggggg

[south rock]

Educate me I never played elden ring all I know is
No maidens

[coarse leaf]

overcrested - makes hornet get high and randomly do random attacks from a random crest thats equipped

[sinful flare]

if SILKSONG doesnt have a ONE HIT CREST i'm going to SILKSHIT MYSELF FOR THE uhhh i lost count

[opaque sigil]

A crest that increases damage taken and dealt is an interesting idea

certainly a possibility though later game that could be a nightmare

like something that doubles incoming damage could potentially lead to like 6 damage hits

[coarse leaf]

wouldn't that be just "i got good so now i one/two shot almost everything"

[sinful flare]

you have to defeat the final boss with one hit crest

best gamedesign literally th ebest fgam e dfinsegn

[copper knot]

silkshit

[south rock]

Wonder if hornet will be able to increase her number of jumps

[serene chasm]

Basically it has a bunch of different symbols. So you can kinda give them your own meaning. For example I set the diamond one for shops, skull for a hard boss, and another for dungeons I beat.

[coarse leaf]

i've always disliked the idea of damage taken and given increased because it's something that people would either stay away because they're bad or abuse all the time because they're good

[brittle garnet]

does anybody have the gif of Hornet binding in the LJ fight

[sinful flare]

lass jim?

[cerulean sable]

gimmick crest that goes full MMO

Everytime you get hit you build up "silk" which changes your entire moveset once you turn it off, but without silk your basic attacks do garbage damage and you use the regular moveset

[serene chasm]

Basically SS should have symbols instead of just coloured circles

[ivory sluice]

Hello eveybody (northenlion voice)

[coarse leaf]

• i dislike it more as a crest because i'd want crests to be more movement related rather than funny damage number related

[serene chasm]

Hello mleko

[south rock]

Would be cool to see what symbols we would have
I want an Ass Jim symbol

[ivory sluice]

Hello kręcony

[serene chasm]

Then it would be 18a and you couldn't buy ss

[cerulean sable]

i hate crest metas i hate crest metas i hate crest metas i hate crest metas i hate crest metas i hate crest metas i hate crest metas i hate crest metas

[coarse leaf]

i agree

on that you hate crest metas

[ivory sluice]

No crests run

[trim estuary]

I LOVE CREST METAS

[coarse leaf]

twrrible run

[ivory sluice]

"Meta" in single player games is embodiment of cringe

[south rock]

I love crest metas I love crest metas I love crest metas I love crest metas I love crest metas I love crest metas

[coarse leaf]

Once you turn it off? What

[brittle garnet]

who's willing to bet that tools and crests will be equally as unbalanced as Charms were

[opaque sigil]

I hope they aren't

[coarse leaf]

I wouldn't bet

But I wouldn't be surprised if they were

[serene chasm]

True but also its not a bad thing for there to be multiple viable ways to play. Basically everyone uses the same charms in HK.

[coarse leaf]

what if there's a crest with rage mode that changes your entire weapon and turns the screen red

[ivory sluice]

Crest that makes it so that more silk = more damage but has a limited moveset would be hella cool

[coarse leaf]

no

[marsh ibex]

Charms were a last minute addition tbh

[ivory sluice]

Yes

[marsh ibex]

We’ve known about tools since 2019

[coarse leaf]

do not take away my cool moves if i just want to gain silk

that'd be bad

[sinful flare]

no silk?

[ivory sluice]

Maybe crest that more silk = more damage but loose silk on getting hit

[coarse leaf]

oh you want ss to be yakuza

yeah that'd be cool

[serene chasm]

I think the first mention of them in in may 2015. But I believe a lot were last minute additions.

[sinful flare]

thats actually a funny charm idea we should have that as a mdo

[ivory sluice]

Silk = damage could actually be a passive tool doesn't really have enough to be a separate crest

Graig give this idea to TC

[serene chasm]

Well now they need another year to implement it. SS now coming 2024

[coarse leaf]

silk causes hornet to get faster, start glowing and deal more damage and also allows her to break bones and brutally stab the enemy

[cerulean sable]

honestly as long as theres no damage meta that pops to the point it overshadows the rest im good

theres the charm being centered around quick slash and shaman stone, then on other games theres monster hunter where 70% of the skills are fucking fluff you dont need to give a shit about

[serene chasm]

I think there will be but balanced out by making the attacks slower. Or at least that how I would do it

[ivory sluice]

Youtube thumbnails in 7 months and 9 days:

THIS TOOL DOES CRAZY DAMAGE

[cerulean sable]

see these?

theres like 60 of these skills

lol get pranked

[serene chasm]

I see. What's this from

[cerulean sable]

youre gonna end up using these instead

monster hunter

[brittle garnet]

which monster hunter

[cerulean sable]

4U

[serene chasm]

Aww 4me?

[cerulean sable]

im playing world atm tho

TRUE

[serene chasm]

Thanks

[brittle garnet]

world is good

[cerulean sable]

world right now suffers the same issue imo

[ivory sluice]

My buddy Oscar just sent a message in the group chat that hes not coming to the group vieving of rise of gru i am killing myself and then killing myself again

[brittle garnet]

well, only if you care about doing optimal damage

every game with builds will end up having a meta build

[serene chasm]

Oscar doesn't seem like such a buddy

[cerulean sable]

depending on what weapon you main youre gonna need some other skills
like for Lance youll need Guard 5+ and Guard Up
but all of the builds will need Critical Eye, Weakness Exploit, Crit Boost which are
ding ding you nailed it, increases your damage

[ivory sluice]

He's busy with shit like war or whatever they do in military

[brittle garnet]

in World it isn't as bad (until the very end game at least) cause different weapons and elements will have different builds (even if slightly)

[brittle garnet]

well duh, they're the best damage skills
the bread and butter

Lance also has Offensive Guard tho

[cerulean sable]

true but you get what i mean, i just dont want the late game SS to be built around damage tho that is inevitable yeah, QS, SS and FS/UbrStr just dominated everything

[brittle garnet]

the thing with world tho is that there aren't that many damage and affinity skills so the best ones don't exactly have that much to overshadow

[ivory sluice]

I played monster hunter world and was just like

Basic sword and shield

Im a basic guy

[brittle garnet]

Sword and Shield is fun, tbh

it's not that basic
not as basic as Dual Blades

[heavy fjord]

Yep

[serene chasm]

Fists is the only way to play. If you can't hunt monsters with your bare hands you are no hunter

[cerulean sable]

what im trying to say is, i dont really care about your opinion anymore BECAU SE I HAVE A MOTHER FCKING HALBERD

[ivory sluice]

I remember using the switchaxe for one boss i was struggling with because it good apparently

Halberds are kinda cool af

[serene chasm]

So is MH as complicated as people make it out to be

[coarse leaf]

this applies to witcher

[ivory sluice]

Everyone in the group chat is crying that Oscar isn't going

Including me

[cerulean sable]

You see the Long Swords beauty of Monster Hunter is that Long Swords theres no such thing Long Swords as a "easy mode" perfect Long Sword weapon because all of the weapons Long Sword are perfectly equal with Long Sword each other and with enough Long Swords skill you can Long Sword clear the entire Long Sword game without Long Sword too much fuss Long Sword

[cunning geode]

Hammer

[heavy fjord]

long sword

[sinful flare]

it do be hammer time

[ivory sluice]

Sword and shield

[serene chasm]

Quick. Create world peace so there would be no need for militaries and your friend can go

[cerulean sable]

Every weapon is equal 😊

[ivory sluice]

Small sword and shield > Big sword or long Sword

[sinful flare]

imagine not using lance

[cerulean sable]

this is gonna be Silksong but instead of Long Sword its Crest of the Reaper

[coarse leaf]

blame the grimm fans

[marsh ibex]

@cerulean sable sorry, but monster hunter discussion goes to #hk-general or #off-topic

what if silksong is just monster hunter

[opaque sigil]

insect glaive is probably my favorite but dual blades are much more effective so I often end up using those instead

[serene chasm]

Bug hunter

[ivory sluice]

You do hunt monsters in silksong

[stoic path]

What if MH is Silksong

[sinful flare]

silksong is a monster hunter ripoff just like how ter is

yeh

Longsword is still #1 in World

[shell yacht]

lance is forever gonna be overlooked, its so oldschool by comparison

[sinful flare]

poggers moment today bc another pc but im curious if my everest files are transferred

[brittle garnet]

Lance is so fun once you learn how to use it tho

[tawny basalt]

Agreed

[brittle garnet]

it has a bit of a steep barrier to entry

[shell yacht]

yeah i used to main it back in like 2

[brittle garnet]

just like Hunting Horn

[shell yacht]

then i realized gunlance exists

[tawny basalt]

Don’t shit on the gunlance

[ivory sluice]

im downloading the funny gay people game

[brittle garnet]

If anybody ever tells you that Charge Blade is the hardest weapon to use, tell them to try (pre-Rise) Hunting Horn and do well with it

[tawny basalt]

It’s amazing

[coarse leaf]

i love celeste

[cerulean sable]

Lance is literally

"Try moving me bitch"

and you end up countering everything

[brittle garnet]

Lance is the one that moves everywhere

[cerulean sable]

your DPS is sticking and stabbing them 24/7 because you cannot give a fuck about damage

[shell yacht]

if anyone says monhun controls suck hand them acopy of monster hunter for the ps2 released 2004™️ and have every attack be tied to R3/Toggle movement

[cerulean sable]

damage? what damage? Guard +5 says fuck you

i have played since MH1

[brittle garnet]

dashing and hopping left right backward ignoring everything the monster throws at you attacking literally every second of the fight

[vivid belfry]

Cats be huntering monsters

[cerulean sable]

lack of 2nd joystick was painful

[tawny basalt]

My first game was mh4u

[shell yacht]

4U was peak MonHun

[sinful flare]

LMAO ok mod installer for celeste keeps crashing

[ivory sluice]

i downloaded the gay game

[sinful flare]

[tawny basalt]

Your computer can’t handle the power of Celesteskill issue

[sinful flare]

[smoky gyro]

how are mods not warning ppl ?

[distant crown]

That’s lordmangobell to you

[coarse leaf]

warning for what

[ivory sluice]

why would they

[tawny basalt]

No

[smoky gyro]

because this is #sk-discussion

[ivory sluice]

so?

[tawny basalt]

It stands for shermasmirk discussion

[sinful flare]

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

[distant crown]

dont know why but whenever silksong isn’t discussed in the channel we talk off topic

[shell yacht]

nobody is ever discussing silksong and prob wont until the game is out. being offtopic isnt illegal unless they interupt SS talk really

[olive bobcat]

They put a sign don't worry

[distant crown]

lets talk about tools

[shell yacht]

FLAMETHROWER JUG

[cedar trench]

Also protip by the pro introduce a compelling argument and people will get back on topic

[distant crown]

favorite tool

[tawny basalt]

Hornet should get a flamethrower tool

[cedar trench]

PISS JUG PISS JUG

[tawny basalt]

Jerati or however it’s spelled I don’t play tf2

[shell yacht]

i hope its actually fuel.for fire and not some healing item

[distant crown]

the citadel is actually in moss grotto

[olive bobcat]

Piss pot

[cedar trench]

Its an aggressive tool most probably

[tawny basalt]

The citadel is hallownest

[cedar trench]

Urine urn

[distant crown]

u

[coarse leaf]

No

[distant crown]

infection syringe

[coarse leaf]

Please don't

[cedar trench]

Infection big jar mmmm

[coarse leaf]

I'm a very innocent pot

[olive bobcat]

Hornet throws gasoline on a boss like Jotaro did to Dio

[tawny basalt]

hornet throws piss at enemies like tf2 sniper

[ivory sluice]

this is a puzzle isnt it

[coarse leaf]

Yes

[cedar trench]

This actually happened irl

[distant crown]

this is forsaken city right?

[ivory sluice]

first area

[keen falcon]

yeah

[coarse leaf]

Yeah the first level

[ivory sluice]

do i need to kill the birds in specific order or something?

[keen falcon]

I actually first picked up celeste a few days ago and im already in love with it

[tawny basalt]

Someone should make a Celeste mod in terraria and vice versa

[cedar trench]

True gaming at its finest is being a hkcord user being a terraria modder and playing celeste

[ivory sluice]

what am i supossed to do here touching the birds does nothing

[kind dove]

watch the colors

[ivory sluice]

yes and

[coarse leaf]

You need 200iq

[ivory sluice]

its white pink blue red pink yellow

[coarse leaf]

You can leave it for now because those puzzles don't become useful until you've spent 5000h

[keen falcon]

watch the order of which the color appear on the screen

[distant crown]

someone should make a silksong celeste mod where madeline climbs pharloom

[ivory sluice]

its white pink blue red pink yellow

what now

[kind dove]

which direction does each bird each move to

[coarse leaf]

Watch the birbs

[tawny basalt]

She wants to make a pie for hornet

[coarse leaf]

Do what they do

[cedar trench]

Silksong mod that releases the fucking game but when it releases its actually good

[onyx dawn]

Let's goooo

Now to touch grass

[cedar trench]

wwwttttttfffffff spoiler this

[keen falcon]

dont do it its a trap

[tawny basalt]

Did I just get ghost pinged?

[ivory sluice]

they go like this

[coarse leaf]

do what they do the do

[ivory sluice]

how

i cant fly

[coarse leaf]

by doing

[keen falcon]

dash in the directions they dash

[coarse leaf]

you've ruined the whole game for them man

spoilt such a major part

[distant crown]

The pie is made from the corpses and blood of hornet’s captors

[trim estuary]

True

[ivory sluice]

hart

[trim estuary]

I’m going to eat it

[distant crown]

yum

[coarse leaf]

💙

[sinful flare]

gg that was pretty easy

[distant crown]

is this moded?

[sinful flare]

modded

[distant crown]

yeah moded

[sinful flare]

3 levels left to be silvered (golden berried)

[coarse leaf]

golden buried

[distant crown]

also what the heck is a heartside?

[sinful flare]

2 that i despise

[sinful flare]

so basically
in spring collab 2020 there are 5 lobbies which have many levels in them
and they also have 1 heartside
to play their heartside levels, you need to beat all levels in that lobby to unlock it

[distant crown]

mhmhm

[midnight delta]

celeste?

[sinful flare]

celeste

[coarse leaf]

celst

[olive bobcat]

Celtic

[coarse leaf]

cell east

[rapid topaz]

dead cell east

[coarse leaf]

beheaded climbs a mountain

collector went "fuck you" and barred entry to the passages

[distant crown]

celtic is cool

[coarse leaf]

its a threat

spend 500h or that will be you tomorrow

[olive bobcat]

Celsius

[distant crown]

also what’s with the eyeballs

[cerulean sable]

you guys forced me

i cant believe im doing this

[distant crown]

enforce silksonh

[cerulean sable]

but you have to do what you have to do when people wont listen

from now on, effective immediately

no more Celeste related content on this server

[feral tusk]

ss discussion is never talking about ss

[distant crown]

thank

[ivory sluice]

unforgivable

[vivid belfry]

It's a trap. It's to prevent you from just moving forward

[distant crown]

not even in celeste art in #art-discussion

[cerulean sable]

nope

zero celeste

cuphead is next

watch your back

[south rock]

No Celeste?

[tawny basalt]

Can I at least talk about monster hunter?

[coarse leaf]

we should all start talking about monhun

ttacco will have to ban monhun then

[feral tusk]

theres an off topic chat

[tawny basalt]

Been playing sunbreak, it’s pretty good

[coarse leaf]

no

[south rock]

What's sunbreak?

[coarse leaf]

we have to get monhun banned from the server

[south rock]

Gasolean

[distant crown]

dont know what nope means in that context but oki

seriously what’s the point of the Hollow Knight Silksong discussion channel if you guys arent even discussing or acknowledging the game

[distant crown]

[dark wagon]

Here we wait for Silksong

[tawny basalt]

The cool people gather here

[dark wagon]

it's a silksong waiting lobby

[coarse leaf]

we do discuss the game and it's not really allowed to interupt ss discussions

[south rock]

💜

[olive bobcat]

To discuss with other people who have the same interests why Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 were the peak of Pokemon main series games

[dark wagon]

wrong oras bettter

[coarse leaf]

but since people have been using this as offtopic for a long while because of SS not being out, offtopic is allowed

[distant crown]

[dark wagon]

Wtf im right

[tawny basalt]

https://tenor.com/view/invader-zim-movie-enter-the-gif-14899370

Can't wait for the BW remakes to include no B2W2 content and instead have "PWT coming soon"

[south rock]

Can't wait for the BW remakes to include no B2W2 content and instead have "PWT coming soon"

[olive bobcat]

PWT is a preorder bonus

Have you seen the SV preorder bonus tho

[tawny basalt]

PWT is part of the game expansion that you have to pay 30 dollars for

[spice plume]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/985383181500960788/989934659087503420/caption.gif

If you preorder SV they'll give you a backpack in the game

Wut does that do
Only one way to find out

[distant crown]

5 out of 100000000% chance you get a new trailer from sspsa

[dark wagon]

bdsp's ost is extremely disappointing and has a shit ton of missed potential so I'm not confident in a gen 5 remake's ost living up to the original

[south rock]

Higher chance of me getting a maiden
I have high hopes

[olive bobcat]

Lemme get out my expectations list again

[distant crown]

imagine not having any maidens

in elden ring

[south rock]

[coarse leaf]

reject getting maidens, get every raiden plushie that exists

[olive bobcat]

Here's what I'm betting on:

• Lackluster graphics style
• Poor handling of included Pokemon
• Only BW content with like 2 things from B2W2 shoehorned in
• Music worse than the original
• Little to no subtle storytelling (such as N's teams or seasonal encounters)

[coarse leaf]

by that i mean every single raiden that has ever existed

[south rock]

how about u be mine

[dark wagon]

i hate how gamefreak just seems like they arent trying

[south rock]

The good Raiden right?

[coarse leaf]

all of them

genshin included.

[dark wagon]

they can do SO MUCH yet they dont 😭

[south rock]

[olive bobcat]

I feel like PLA shows a desire to make good games, but The Pokemon Company will never permit them enough time

[coarse leaf]

but hey i bet genshin raiden plushies cant outnumber all of the MGS2, MGS4 and MGRR raiden plushies

[south rock]

True

[dark wagon]

pokemon is nintendo's cod

[south rock]

Same game?

Wait no that's FIFA

[ivory sluice]

Ow whatever that is

[spice plume]

I am absolutely delirious. I fell asleep like 6 times trying to get to bed last night. I ended up sleeping for 9-10 hours. Jesus.

[ivory sluice]

shut up im getting all of em

I mnot impressed tbh
U got scammed

[dusty nimbus]

Nice

[dark wagon]

[south rock]

Edited twice and still spelling mistake

[dusty nimbus]

My arm hurts from sunburn

[coarse leaf]

this is why you shouldnt fight the radiance

[sinful flare]

this trash game i will become back my money

[cerulean sable]

do youi think Celeste 2 shold incvolve climbing up a tower in order to create another cycle of light and dakrness

[sinful flare]

(silver)

[ivory sluice]

HOW????

[ivory sluice]

this game too easy

[sinful flare]

i died in the stupidest way possible

[tawny basalt]

[coarse leaf]

Say that after 600h

[ivory sluice]

im will beat it in 4

[coarse leaf]

I believe in Zote

[coarse leaf]

You will "beat" it

[sinful flare]

i died right next to the electric box to an electric field

[coarse leaf]

Then another 16h to "beat" it

Then another 256h to "beat" it, then 1024h to "beat" it

[tawny basalt]

This is the devil, and none of you can change my mind

[coarse leaf]

Only true cell easts will understand

[olive bobcat]

https://youtu.be/UglHmd6wOUM

[coarse leaf]

Oh and if you move on to modded its another 100000h

[tawny basalt]

That is also the devil but

[coarse leaf]

You can't even see that normally

[tawny basalt]

[coarse leaf]

It's visible in replies and when the message is highlighted or when you have light mode

[ivory sluice]

Wow i sure do hope i won't meet my evil shadow version of myself today

[south rock]

I have omaled mode

Still see it

[tawny basalt]

I’m going to turn on light mode guys

[tawny basalt]

[ivory sluice]

literally how

[tawny basalt]

Did they change light mode?

[olive bobcat]

You go in there, ez

[tawny basalt]

I’m no longer on light mode

[cerulean sable]

why tf is the cover so dramatic

[tawny basalt]

Do you guys wanna hear a fun fact?

[sinful flare]

no

[olive bobcat]

Give me a fact (neither fun nor unfun)

[sinful flare]

give me a funny fact

[tawny basalt]

Pepsi once had a navy

[olive bobcat]

7th largest or something, right?

[tawny basalt]

They got it from the Soviet Union

if you ever want a navy, just offer the Russians soft drinks

[distant crown]

the darkereners

[tawny basalt]

Light mode didn’t hurt my eyes surprisingly

[distant crown]

tonio is a lightner even thouhh he has a jevil pfp

[tawny basalt]

It just made everything look wrong

I’m no longer on light mode though

[coarse leaf]

you're supposed to do it when the room lights are off

[distant crown]

tonio will now become a darkener

[coarse leaf]

warning: eyes might explode

[south rock]

Should I turn on light mode

[distant crown]

yay

you can be anything if you threaten them with a gun

The texturing on the cloak… it bothers me

I dunno why

[tawny basalt]

Yeah I also don’t like it

[sinful flare]

it looks like real life cloth or somethin

[south rock]

It looks like the material of a basketball?

Like they tore a blue basketball and use it as a cape?

I sound so dumb

[dark wagon]

Wtf it does look like the material of blue basketball

[olive bobcat]

fake

[south rock]

I don't sound dumb!

hello fellow pot person

[sly summit]

ehm....

idk what to say

[coarse leaf]

[sly summit]

I started playing portal 2 because my old pc couldnt run it.. i've been 2 hours in... it has potential of being my fourth fav game

[velvet sentinel]

hi dear chat

[fiery coral]

PORTAL 2 YEAHH

[sly summit]

man

[coarse leaf]

pottal 2

[sly summit]

the soundtrack... the interactions......

[sinful flare]

UNQNUE WANNA PORTAL 2 LIKE A REAL MAN

[coarse leaf]

wait thats a word?

[velvet sentinel]

[fiery coral]

Quin

[fiery coral]

YEAHH

[sinful flare]

WAIT I NEED TO INSTALL PORTAL 2 FIRST I WILL PING YOU

[stark estuary]

Unquinique

[sly summit]

like.... ik this is on spanish... but the many interactions of portal... this for example was for putting myself as an example of a turret, like, I love the interactions

[velvet sentinel]

aren't there some really cool speedrun skips for portal 2?

[fiery coral]

wait

tomorrow might be a better time to start

[sinful flare]

oh K

[fiery coral]

because it's almost 10 PM now

[fiery coral]

Kirb

[marsh ibex]

If Portal 2 is so good why isn’t there a portal 3

[sinful flare]

ok so how are we gonna invite each other to coop

[subtle flint]

[fiery coral]

[marsh ibex]

guess it wasn’t that good then

[coarse leaf]

also i just realised that your nick is a dmc5 reference due to some spoiler screenshot

[fiery coral]

Add me on Steam

[sinful flare]

the same reason why there isnt a half life 3

[sly summit]

Also people, try the cuphead dlc if u havent, its pretty good

[velvet sentinel]

hi kirb. Do you have a valstrax plush?

[subtle flint]

unique, joker, kaan

[sinful flare]

hi SAM

[velvet sentinel]

hi everyone here

[olive bobcat]

Because it was Portal 2 good

[stark estuary]

I wish

[fiery coral]

Sam

[ivory sluice]

alright i have to stop playing celeste

[sly summit]

now I am going to cook something, good bye gamers

[velvet sentinel]

very sad, Valstrax is cool

[ivory sluice]

bye bye everyone

[coarse leaf]

un quin ique

[marsh ibex]

I mean bubsy has had more games than portal

Now that’s a quality series

[fiery coral]

Joker you're a Persona fan

you are not allowed to decide

the quality of a franchise

[marsh ibex]

You’re just mad because my franchise popped off while yours is

[dusty nimbus]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpw2ebhTSKs

[marsh ibex]

Yknow

middling

[coarse leaf]

wtf no way you're supposed to do laundry

[tawny basalt]

Ahh the classic, bully JoJoker for being a persona fan

[fiery coral]

this is all in jest in case anyone reading isn't aware

[serene chasm]

Final fantasy is the most quality series

[marsh ibex]

I mean, portal doesn’t exactly understand suffering from success, right?

[fiery coral]

it doesn't suffer

just succeeds

[subtle flint]

it blooms

[marsh ibex]

blooms tend to last for more than two games

[fiery coral]

the Portal flower blooms once more

[coarse leaf]

That sounds like something that Zote would say

[fiery coral]

you will witness true greatness

[dusty nimbus]

I'll eat you

[subtle flint]

[coarse leaf]

precept 58 fucking play portal

[serene chasm]

Why bloom multiple times when twice does the trick

[fiery coral]

Portal has bloomed twice already, the third time is when it will achieve godly status

[subtle flint]

so, never - joker

[marsh ibex]

don’t you play pokemon?

[serene chasm]

It's been so long since I've played

[stark estuary]

Not anymore

[marsh ibex]

That’s nice honey

[velvet sentinel]

i love pokemon to be honest

[olive bobcat]

Not since 2018

[stark estuary]

I don't play Persona anymore either

[fiery coral]

never played a Pokemon game

[opaque sigil]

Ni No Kuni 1 > Pokemon

[sacred stratus]

🤝

[serene chasm]

They're ok. Mostly lives off nostalgia

[coarse leaf]

Okay, good take: Mother franchise > Pokémon franchise

[dusty nimbus]

Don't you mean Portal: Fracture? That number you mentioned doesn't exist

[stark estuary]

No shit

[obsidian juniper]

I would say im dissapointed in Pokémon if i could actually play it

[velvet sentinel]

but i understand how pokemon isnt for everyone. Also last games felt copied and rushed

[fiery coral]

Portal 2: Episode 2

[stark estuary]

95% of JRPGs > Pokemon

[opaque sigil]

ok but Ni No Kuni is actually good

[dusty nimbus]

[coarse leaf]

Half Life 2: Episode 4

[dusty sun]

Who wants to put hornet on trial in a court of law?

[dusty nimbus]

I finished playing portal 1 recently

[stark estuary]

It is yes, as is the sequel, but it's a very different game from the original.

[subtle flint]

what about postal?

[coarse leaf]

What's the 5%

[dusty nimbus]

It good

[fiery coral]

"is this what you've been waiting for? say one, two...and four!"

🎷

[serene chasm]

Pokemon Isn't even a jrpg.

[subtle flint]

[obsidian juniper]

The chalkeaters are so good

[opaque sigil]

pokemon is a jrpg, just not a good one

[subtle flint]

i am so good?

[coarse leaf]

"Japan RolePlay Game", Pokemon is from Japan, so take a guess

[obsidian juniper]

Crushing in your 30s Is really good to
And it just works,Todd howards has no rights to sing that well

[gilded adder]

Pogemon?

[fiery coral]

All proceeds go strictly to Vault-Tec so you're not getting your money back

[stark estuary]

Pokemon is mediocre at best and insulting at worst

[fiery coral]

scathing

[coarse leaf]

this is my fav and most used emote now

[stark estuary]

Even the "good" Pokemon games like BW/BW2 are just okay relative to most other games in the genre

[dusty nimbus]

Jojo fan

[stark estuary]

They're only considered good because they're being compared to the garbage that is modern Pokemon

[opaque sigil]

tbf Arceus is a better game, although still not a good jrpg

[olive bobcat]

And because they're better than the gens before them

[stark estuary]

And nostalgia plays a big part in it

[stark estuary]

Which are also not good

[olive bobcat]

imo PLA is the only Pokemon game that stands up to the bar gen 5 set for Pokemon

[serene chasm]

I need to play bw still

[obsidian juniper]

X2

[coarse leaf]

This topic is reminding me of the StarWars-Discussion somehow

[stark estuary]

At least there the series might go in a better direction from here

[olive bobcat]

We'll have to see if SV lives up

Frankly I don't think it will

[cedar trench]

i read this wrong and thought you were talking lgp

[opaque sigil]

Arceus sorta plays more into the explorative element of the fantasy rather than just relying on an outdated combat system, which is the right direction imo

[olive bobcat]

After the surprise with PLA, hopes and expectations for open-world Pokemon are going to be too high for GF to satisfy, and people will ultimately come off of SV feeling disappointed

[cedar trench]

i have hopes for SV

[tribal merlin]

the main problem with pokemon is it seems like something a guy in marketing came up with in order to sell a ton of garbage to people, then had a game made out of it to promote the crap (gameplay more of an afterthought)

[serene chasm]

Too many acronyms. What's sv again

[olive bobcat]

Scarlet/Violet, the new games in production rn

[silver oak]

Sonic Vrontiers

[opaque sigil]

i mean the gameplay was probably fine when it was first conceived, it just hasn't been improved for most of the series' history

[serene chasm]

Ah. Thanks necro

[silver oak]

np

[cedar trench]

good to know im not the only one that is bad with acronyms

[olive bobcat]

Yeah the best they did to fix it was gimmicks, but they kept changing them constantly ending up making people dislike those too

[serene chasm]

I should give one of the new Pokemons a try

[opaque sigil]

one off gimmicks are not solutions to stagnating core gameplay

[olive bobcat]

Megas were cool, then there were Z-moves, then dynamax, and now rumored third types or some other gimmick

[cedar trench]

new gimmicks sorta feel uninspired

[olive bobcat]

Also the styles of PLA

[stark estuary]

SW is bad BDSP is worse LGPE is non-existent

PLA is good though

[serene chasm]

Ok

[olive bobcat]

SW?

[cedar trench]

swsh

[serene chasm]

(understood none of that)

[olive bobcat]

Ah

[gilded adder]

HeartGold and SoulSilver are good too, only Pokemon games I've finished

[olive bobcat]

Here's hoping their next remake of gen 1 is a good one

[cedar trench]

gen 8 core game is shiT
the gen 4 remakes are worse
legends arceus is good
lets go games bad

[opaque sigil]

PLA is good because it reduces the amount that the core gameplay mechanics are used

combat is a fallback

[tribal merlin]

I mean they released a TCG in the first year of its inception and a manga and an anime a year after, sure seems they pushed monetization hard and early

[serene chasm]

I loved that in hgild and ssilber the Pokemon followed you

[stark estuary]

Meant to write SWSH sry

[sinful flare]

the only poekmon gmae i finished was emearld

[gilded adder]

Yea, I wish they brought that back in future games but alas

[opaque sigil]

the PLA combat still isn't great (although the styles or whatever are a fine addition imo)

[lone lichen]

i haven't bought a pokemon game since sun, and i only bought that because i was bored out of my mind

[sinful flare]

gamefreak wont

[olive bobcat]

Also from a personal design standpoint I feel like their legendaries and mythicals are getting worse

[cedar trench]

mototcyle:))))))))

[olive bobcat]

Gen 7 had some hit or miss ones but I only like 1 from gen 8 (Calyrex)

[silent meteor]

900 weird animals let's gooooooo

[cedar trench]

gen 7 had like the best designs in pokemon (uyltra beast)())

[olive bobcat]

Actually that's a lie the regional legendary birds were cool

[sinful flare]

wqas gen 7 pokemon sun and moon?

[lone lichen]

i wasn't interested in legends arceus to begin with
after i saw gameplay, you couldn't have paid me to play that game

[olive bobcat]

Yeah I love the UBs, too bad they're not very important overall

[velvet sentinel]

holy shit. A horse stepped on my moms foot and her toenail is broken she's on the way to the hospital rn wtf

[sinful flare]

wtf

[cedar trench]

what the actual hell

[opaque sigil]

damn, those things are huge

[coarse leaf]

why the fuck did the horse do that

[cedar trench]

i hope she makes a slick recovery

[coarse leaf]

getting a toe nail broken sucks

[olive bobcat]

I have a Dusk Mane Necrozma plushie tho

[velvet sentinel]

show

[sinful flare]

i have an experience with broken toenails and i agree

[silent meteor]

What the hell that's worse when my finger was crushed by the wooden plant under a matress when my father is trying to fix my bunk bed.

[cedar trench]

my view of electrical wires has been forever changed

[coarse leaf]

my mom had that experience

[sinful flare]

especially pinky toe nail

[wanton eagle]
