Dream no more and The Hollow Knight are just masterpieces when you play the game for the first time
embrace the void is the best one, dream no more is close second, the hollow knight is in the middle, and then sealed siblings and the flower ending just suck
at least that's what I think
I LIKE THE FLOWER ENDING
ETV is just Dream No More presented in a misleading way with a pointless cliffhanger + a variant that adds another pointless cliffhanger
I think that Dream no more is better than Embrace the void, just because it's what most players will acttualy see you know?
Very little people do the Embrace tbe void
Also THK not being allowed to rest kinda gets in the way of the importance of DNM, the kingdom is supposed to move on and finally rest
Now it has to wander a kingdom while heavily damaged while being reminded of its failure at every corner
Without even being allowed to get revenge on Radiance
holy crap
Yeah
Well depends on what you mean by masterpiece but I think its a very good game
yeah, it's truly an amazing game
that’s what they all say until the 5 minute long credits
The game itself was made by 3 guys, like, programming, designing and stuff
I mean yeah but thats not all the work that goes into a game
I know
and the marketing, music, voice acting
ah
The music was made by one guy only if i'm nor wrong btw
Yeah
it was just him
We see lots of people acknowledged in credits for chello, vocals, etc. although it was composed by Larkin
Exactly, he composed everything, that's what i'm saying
yeah they assisted, he made the og
The fact of the matter is that it was made by more than 3 dudes in Australia
3 guys made the game, the programmer, the designer, and the music composer
plus the other guy
that left
and leth, marketing is a huge part
well yeah
and lots of design was done by the backers
I mean, marketing is another thing, not the game itself
true
If it weren’t for leth you probably would never have played it
Ok, but doesn't mean it's part of the game
thats surprisingly true
putting the product in your hands is just as important as making the product
Marketing is marketing
They got paid for making more ppl know the game
No, it's not, without product there's no marketing
What about indie industries that doesn't have enough for marketing?
the fact of the matter is that it was four guys, a marketer and a bunch of backers, plus some voice actors and music ppl
Like, marketing is important but not as much important
MY TV WHAT THE HECK MAN
it lives
huh
It’s alive
What
Yo you can't send this photo and go awy
We need context
my tv no clip its simple
How is that simple?
ITS LITERALLY IN THE WALL BRO
IDK HOW
AND YOU'RE NOT EVEN CURIOUS ABOUT IT???
nope
; -;
-energy
Imagine HK with a Glock
imagine hk with a clock
Imagine HK with a beach
Imagine HK with HK
YOOOO FACTS
hello
Kitten Hornet?
bruh
I never should’ve saved Zote
lol
I think it’s worth to fight GPZ
if its your second run or a seedrun dont save him
you wont face him in p3 if he is non existent
In most speedruns you save Zote from VK for easy Geo
yeah but dont save him in deepnest
yeah not much point in that unless you’re doing 112% apb
if you are trying to speedrun\
u can save zote and he won't be in pantheons
LMAO CAP
the requirements for him to be in god home is fighting him in brettas basement
u can save zote and just not fight gpz
might leave this place theres an endless amount of notifications
Sir are you stupid
how
You can disable notifications from individual servers
thx

As the strongest shade, the vessel fought the fraud, the radiance they began to charge up the great slash. The radiance shrunk back in fear and the vessel said "stand proud radiance. You are strong"
STOP BLOWING MY MIND
@alpine wave yo the clone wars is just perfect
But i think i prefer the Episode 1
Yeah it’s pretty good
Wha-
Yeah
Of clone wars, the phantom menace? Or what??
Watching season 7 was painful for me. Due to the fact that I was binging all of Star Wars and did clone wars in 3 weeks.
I had PTSD while watching it
The phantom menace
Then, 4 hours later, I heard THOSE words
Eh
The Phantom Menace is my favourite star wars thing ever
Imo, I can never decide between Attack of the clone of The phantom menace
Revenge of the sith left the chat
Something about young obi wan is just awsome
Yeah, this one is pretty good too
Not like it’s my favorite movie of all time or anything..
If you say that about the movies, it’s chill!
If you say that about the clone wars SHOW, then I have some words of choice
IMO empire strikes back is the second best
My favourites in order are
Episode 1
Episode 3
Episode 2
Episode 5
Episode 6
Episode 4
About the movies
Oh yeah the last 3 movies suck
Also, no one cares about Rey trilogy
Honestly, based
Based?
I’m saying it’s good
Oh, i'm not into slungs
This is by realise order not cronologic order right?
Is it slungs? The word
My favourite movies order
He’s saying that’s how good they are :/
You you well?
Yeah but the numbers
A litle maybe
If you call a new hope episode 1 then you have a problem
The chronological order is from 1 to 9
But the release order is 4 5 6, 1 2 3, 7 8 9
I just said which ones are my favourite movies in order
Neh mano?
Nao é todo o dia que eu vejo uma merda dessas
But we can't talk in portuguese, ungortunatelu
Yoda was in charge of scheduling
Back to english mode
Yep
Live this shit
Hey cachorro
What
You know how yoda spoke with Qui gone near the end of the clone wars and later on
I learned something VERY WHOLSOME today
Apperantly, after order 66 Yoda went back to the Jedi temple and took qui gones Jedi robes
And used them as a blankie
What???
Did you know, that Vader's armour was built to hurt him, and contain his power?
Vader had to use the fire just to walk

Kid Icarus Uprising Musical...
sup
I'm fine
Do you have any favorite track from Hollow Knight?
My favorite tracks are "Hornet", "Mantis Lords", "Truth, Beauty, and Hatred", "Grimm", and "Nightmare King"
My favorite track is City of tears 🙌🏼 but also I love Mantis Lords!!
Man on the Internet did amazing covers of tracks from Hollow Knight
personally, hive knight
I’m gonna listen rn!!!
I love Emily Go's voice in Man on the Internet's cover of "Hornet"
Omg sounds very cool! Also the Grimm’s theme
Man on the Internet also did a vocal cover of "Boss Fight 2" from Kid Icarus: Uprising fearuring an epic duet between Palutena and Medusa

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
@ionic sluice 2 more hours
i don't care if i get hate because of this opinion, but this is my favorite paper mario final boss song.
Any news about hollowknight silksong?
?sspsa
Reminder: The latest news for both Hollow Knight and Silksong can be found in #hk-announcements.
Check the pinned messages for more information, including a FAQ. 
i've had this game for like 4 years now and I can't remember ever meeting this guy
Ligma
yeah
don't think i've seen him before now tbh, i hadn't played HK for a while and was on my way to try Godhome and heard his awful wailing
yeah I've done the god master content before, just have never seen that lil guy
She is usually in a different place
The first time you went in there you dream nailed something
And that's it
so i have to get more bindings? oof
Well nothing will appear in the room
But the reward will get bigger if you do more bindings (more lifeblood at a bench)
Good morning guys
Lunch
Did your school get a life time supply of string cheese
idk
nightmare king grimm
no way

Name is nightmare king grimm but the pfp is troupe master grimm, curious
🙀
scream_cat indeed
scream cat is based
so true
true
hollow
wolloh
Yeah, hold on a second
reloads and cocks gun
Gun persona 3 Reload reference????
Yoo 51% whole grain!
which would you rather eat
Egg
Also alot of bugs in hallownest consider the rancid egg a great meal
The one on the right actually looks good
who hurt you
Them fries look fuckin delicious
I don't see the issue it looks delicious
fries are fine but those brown nuggets are definitely puke worthy
Nuggest look good tho
1 its rancid
2 sly says it stinks
ok but tuk calls it food
Sly is a dweeb. Dont listen to him
so it good
i prefer k'chael
Worse, he’s a libertarian
velamy archred 🔥🔥🔥
Wrong
i dont like tuk
no its waranted
tuk is the best character
Who is tuk
rancid egg dealer
a bug
tuk is super base
i thought tuk was a girl
She’s also useless and dead in steel soul
tuk is girl
tuk is infact women
Oh ok good
tuk isnt real tuk is steel soul propaganda issued by confessor jiji
tuk is infact real tuk is so dead and i 3wkll fucking cry
tuk is based and tukpilled
tuk should be added to sulksong
if there's 100 tuk fans, then i am one of them. if there is 1 tuk fan, that is me. if there's 0 tuk fans then i am dead
Eggsong!!
Whats so cool about Tuk
Obvious
She's funky
I don't think I've ever used her services in game 
I never met her in game
I don’t think many people do
Infinite egggggggggggggg
i never used confessor jiji
They should've killed more characters in Steel Soul
Ive spent like probably 2k geo on tuk through all my playthroughs
Make it so like, you arrive when the infection is at its worst
True
out of pure respect
Myla starts dead, kill emilitia and leg eater after buying the fragile charms
What about jiji :(
ig it makes sense they killed tuk though
Just give TK the ability to kill everyone
Steel Soul update: You can now mug Sly
so you cant get infinite geo with jinn
And tuk
balancing be damned
they should've just let tuk live
but refuse to sell you anymore outside of the first bc she smells a weird aura from you
then they’d have to write more dialogue
They also had to draw a dead tuk sprite
They had to do it for most bosses
i think its easier to make tuk not interactable and draw a dead tuk with an egg infront of them is easier than adding new dialogue atleast for tc
Ig
or maybe tc just didn’t like tuk and didn’t want to think about why they would not give you eggs as thats like part of their personality to be nice and give eggs for money
Is there any other indie game as good as hk while i wait for silksong (
)
Yea P3R
I heard a quote
No, not as good, but at least JUST good
Its very indie
Aground
Ori games are pretty good
They are more platforming focused than HK, though still a metroidvania
Ori is much more expensive isn't it
I'm not sure
And i have a very strict budget I'm willing to spend on any games and not other needs
They are both on sale rn though
(this money was supposed to go for silksong but!)
Oh. Interesting
Nothing is replacing hk, rather just acting as another game
If you buy it to replace hk u might be dissapointed
60 fps lock be like
My hk was running at like 180fps i believe at mostly mediums?
Don't know if it's on a better side
Also whenever i picked up a spell(not the upgrade, a default spell) my fps dropped to 40 for a second or so
Is it normal or not really
yeah thats normal
oh got it
although if i turn all max graphics my fps is definitely going to be like 40
so basically ps edition or whatever it's called
I’m having a difficult time understanding why half-life works? Like, I understand how to use it, no problem there, but I just don’t understand why the amount of material has no effect on what percentage of the material decays in its half-life
My prof spent an hour trying to explain it to the class. I just feel dense for not fully understanding it
Yes I get that the constant doesn’t change, but what does that mean? Maybe I’m looking too far into it
Hi
Hi
Hollow knight is cool
Nope
They new knight
How many percent ?

At least 100%
@muted idol and you ?
107 at most
Pantheons ?
Just the first
Did you save zote?
Yes
You can do that?
You need to save him in greenpath
Oh wait
so, no silksong news at next fest?
Deepnest
But if you let him in deepnest
It's a myth
probably not
Soooo
@west path and I are going to break into team cherry's building and steal the lore bible
...
Who's coming with us
Waht
No
i have 112% and i havnt even completed 5th pantheon and i saved zote and banished grimm troupe
I BEAT NIGHTMARE KING ON RADIANT
Nice
W
E
Im coming

FAT w
big W
it took 5 tries and a lot of training but here it is
We don't need this information

is this game playable on ps5? (Is it good)
it is more than good and playable on ps5

hey I just got the game so its downloading rn, but I wanted to say hi
advice, don't stop every 5 minutes in your playthrough to talk on discord
and welcome
Gonna lose my mind
about what
currently on p5 past the paintmaster
running commentaries from new players
good luck
just beat grimm
||yoo its looks to the moon|| (both hollow knight and rain world spoilers)
currently on hornet sentinal
hi, I've reach pass of pain and I'm faced with really really precise jumps etc. I would like to know if you can cancel the dash ton not end up impaled in those spikes...
yup sorry
normal dash
I've seen a guy do it in his run but I can't figure out how
I'll try mashing the controller
gl!!
I DID IT
YESSSSSSSSSSS
LETS GOOOO
heavy spoilers
all thats left is hunters journal and the mushroom man
WOOO NICE JOB !!
hello guys
hello
hi
i am currently stuck at a boss in HK
which one
Nightmare king grimm
ah
any specific attacks you’re struggling with ?
get unbreakable strength (or fragile strength) and quick slash
Is there a specific attack which is causing you trouble?
oh God where is silksong
It's best to go slowly rather then rush NKG for that attack. It’s always four flames.
also i just beated Pantheon 2
I also reccomend steady body because you can hit him more in that attack without the fear of being hit
i have 7 charm slots
and the charms i am using is wayward compass grimmchild and quick focus
I would say Quick focus isn't needed in NGK. He attacks alot and quickly which means you don't have much time to heal
Swap that for quick slash or fragile/unbreaking strength
i think i should get the charm called lifeblood core and hiveblood
since i have joni's blessing i will have not to worry about healing
i use lifeblood core -if i have it- joni's blessing and hiveblood -once i get it-
keen hunter obtained
Sitting here, swirling the water in my cup around, creating little air bubbles that pop, I finally understand it
The bubbles have their own half life
I can literally observe this phenomenon with my own eyes
Incredible
what about the invisible anime parkour man out of the window in the car
mister mushrooms diolouge has been changed to be rain world related cause im using a 5 pebbles skin :D
yea ig
did you get every mask
no
go do that
flower quest here i come 😭
You guys think hive knights a good boss right? 😢
he's a wacky guy, easy boss but wacky guy
Is that good?
yes
Yay
easy boss, very good music
hive knight theme banger fr
Very underrated boss fight theme
Hug
I'll pass

he a cool boi
buzzi cool boi
You get hug
but... that's impossible
steel soul achievements
banishment/ritual
True hunter has nothing to do with those wat
but u said not getting ALL achievements on your first playthrough
oh you change it mb
💀
or i misread
U misread lul
mb bro
ty :D
His teleport attack is cool and the bees are super cute! 9/10 boss.
Only reason not a ten is because he supa easy
Ori and the blind forest is my Hollow Knight replacement. It’s not better, but it’s near as good and just as pretty or possibly more so. It’s a bit more of a platformer challenge in terms of constantly trying to kill you with environmental based hazards but the save system is really nice. Save just about almost anywhere. It’s slightly limited but it hardly matters. (Hope that I don’t regret saying that.)
hiiii
Also there’s something called Grime that looks kinda promising. It’s $24 though.
In terms of progression I just got the ||ground stomp || ability.
thats a ver good ability
u dont need spoiler tags unless ur in #hk-help
I've heard of it
and lore
How do you cross words out
Also hi anika
~~example~~
It's not crossed
😭 i tryed
hi, anyone can help me with the multiplayer mod?
No i use switch sorry
;-;
Hive Knight did their best 😔
ugh fucking finally did radiant gpz
Do you like hive knight?
Thank you
At least my queen vespa was proud
Hive Knight is fun but by the time I usually get to him my nail and spells are just too powerful for him
Fun if you are doing challenge runs tho
Yay I did gud job
oh yea doing hive knight in low% etv might be challenging
hive knight is far from your biggest problem if you're doing that 
Who does low% etv...
people who hate fun
No thats regular ETV
low%etv is even worse
So I did a gud job?
me
someone who’s bad at fireball skips but has too much patience
Well if you are doing low%etv I think you have completely detached yourself from the concept of "fun" or "unfun"
Who reacted to me I need to give them a hug
me
i find struggling on bosses and skips fun tbh
doing itemless blue lake shade skip was so fun
To each their own
Aw this is cute art
I know
Hornet's cloak looks cursed with the sleeves though 😔
same to you 
oh my
hello mango !
hello Carrot :D
i keep forgetting to actually start those low% runs but i wanna do it lol
how you doing mango :3
lol so true

i will see if i can manage P5 after so much time

you probably right i am not even rememberin the bosses patterns well 
Markoth gonna be silly i can already see lol
oh yes

Oh no i will have to do Climb/Failed Champ/ and other thingy too

anyway any good build for Grimm? is shape of unn any good?
he is attackin me and i cannot see 
uhh i dunno for dark grimm
maybe shape of unn would be good ??
lol the pufferfishs are so evil
true 
maybe Shaman Stone and do the silliest Shriek kill 
true 
there’s a bench after grimm anyways
i know it goes against what i said but oh man NKG gonna be bald
Shriek Kill on NKG is like 13?
how many shrieks it take ?
yea am askin this lol
13 enough? i guess not
am not that bad i see
NKG arena has fall damage so i could bug the Darkness? 
oo true 
on Xero arena it works so it should work on his arena too righty? 
it would make it free lol gonna try
we hope it works !!
good luck

HII
Byee
why lol
Welcome to hk off topic
so true
Cowabummer
welcome
Hola. I knew too much about hollow knight before I started playing, but am still loving it. Hopefully Silksong comes soon!
same 
watched multiple playthroughs lol
ditto
I don't know
I was just eating chicken
Then I got stomach ache
Then I threw up 3 times
Did it taste different?
And now I threw up 4 to 5 more times
No it didnt
Jesus
I had burger King earlier
Oh my god
I got stupid food poisoning from burger King didn't i
Why the hell is my throw up brown tho
Actually I might have gotten sick from my friend
I live in America and my family doesn't have the thing to make it cheaper and it is 11 pm
Well shit
And my family have no money rn
I guess I will try some water
it's 23:09 for me
It more like a bad midnight for me
I am usually atleast a little happy
But not right now
I feel terrible
So either I am throwing up blood which I hope I ain't or I had to much brown colored food and drinks
Cause my throw up is brown
wtf
Blood turns brown after being in air
came out as what
Wolfkin
that's crazy
Just kidding bro have a good day
ok
SUS
@old finch referecne what no way
What 
whats the difference between #off-topic and this #hk-general
I can't stop thinking about my Hollow Knight/Puella Magi Madoka Magica crossover ideas
Your what
Hollow Knight/Puella Magi Madoka Magica crossover ideas
Whats 'Puella Magi Madoka Magica'
Puella Magi Madoka Magica is a magical girl show with a cute art style by Ume Aoki, a gradually depressing script by Gen Urobuchi, and amazing music by Yuki Kajiura
I find Yuki Kajiura's music to be similar to Christopher Larkin's; both make amazing music
Hmm sounds good, how do you propose a crossover?
I have the idea of "Surgam identidem" playing over ||the Radiance, who fulfills the role of Walpurgisnacht||
This was requested like 6 months ago but I never got around to it until like now.
The epic fight from episode 11, Homura's second shown round in the anime and probably 2935th in the setting.
Sus
But what else coz that seems very little for a crossover
I also have "I miss you" playing over the ruins of Hallownest ||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Euy0AiGozI||
INFORMATION/THANKS/NOTES:
The COMPLETE scene in BLUERAY quality 1920x1080 because there were only 2 bad quality cut-off scenes of this so I thought I HAVE TO upload this to show it everyone. I would really enjoy it if you would share this and help me to make this popular, I did not rendered this in anyway to provide you with ORIGINAL quality and...
I also imagine "she is a witch" playing over ||the Hollow Knight, who fulfills the role of Sayaka Miki, as they succumb to the Infection in despair over the futility of their efforts to be the perfect Vessel and save Hallownest||
||The Hollow Knight would let orange light and fluid out of their eyes instead of tears and flashing images of their younger self with the Pale King follow as well as the Radiance and her roar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BB1RhQ0focI||
Clip from Puella Magi Madoka Magica: the Beginning. Sayaka Miki transforms into a witch.
You should learn how to mod and mod all of this
The scene I imagined for ||the Hollow Knight|| does not exist in the game
Draw the screens for it and animate them ✅
To quote ratatouille 'Anyone can dr-' ....actually thats now how it goes but it still implies so 'Anyone can draw.'

Playing Deviator demo rn
Overall it does feel quite derivative. But the gameplay is actually pretty good
It's confirming my suspicion that HK would be 2x better if it had dedicated parrying mechanics
how so?
it's like metal gear rising, you hit an attack with your sword
oh, so the way you parry already in hk
i'm half joking, but in HK you can very easily run circles around common enemies and avoid all their attacks. But with parrying you have to actually let them attack you and then react at the very last moment.
No, in Deviator there's a dedicated parry button
true, but like, there's still shade dash
oh neat! 
you're a glass cannon in hollow knight
that's why it's movement based
hornet has a parry counter
yea. Maybe they're will be a parry in silksong
In Deviator some enemies have special blue attacks that you can't parry but can dash through.
nah trust it's coming out later this year
i kinda hope not... i made a bet
why would you bet on it lol
not money, just me n soem friends joking around and now I have dignity riding on silksong not releasing this year

Did u bet on ur life?
no, I just have to wear silly clothes and get a pic of it if I lose
rip
After parrying you can counter attack for more damage. If your "soul" meter is full, it also gives you healing gems and upgrades your attack.
The very first boss is absolutely destroying me. Event though it only has like 2 attacks.
How silly are the clothes?
skirt, thigh highs, and a tank top
i don't look good in tank tops, so it'll be sillier
furthermore I still have a friend to help get to 112% :3
what boss was that again
what even is 112%
is it like a challenge run
completion %
I know that
100% from base game + all the updates
Ig help in the pantheons
ugh I hated p3
Funny waha fly
I've started playing after all of the recent updates came out, so idk what's base and what's not
I got the voidheart edition
ok 
anyway time to delay Silksong try P5
is that part 5 or what
I've yet to beat the game so I don't know anything extra about it
The one that looks like the Hunter from HK
bloodborne reference
so is it just a shadowy figure or
No idea.
It has one attack that you cant parry, but can jump over. And another that you can't jump over, but can parry.
In the second phase there's a third attack that you have to dash through, like with Traitor Lord.
And you have a split second to decide which action to do
what are you playing then
its this from the trailer
Spoil it dude
Its from the trailer
||that's not what the hunter I know looks like, he's just resting in a room in greenpath, hidden in moss with six eyes||
||the Hunter i know does too, but when the Deviator trailer came out everyone in the comments was saying that it looks like the Hunter. ||
Looks like ya'll need to finish up your hunter's journals then
what's the trailer for
yes i've never finished the journal. I want to replay HK when Silksong comes out, and finish all the things I skipped on my first playthrough
the trailer for Deviator
that requires killing everything in the game, some several times, I only have most
@long pumice haven’t been on recently and I just wanted to check how you were doing
Yeah I noticed, don't worry about it. Things have been rocky but I'm trying to push through them, hope you're doing well Jesse
Most people in here have finished the game I believe so it's common for people to stream other games while we wait for Silksong
deviator seems kinda, too much of a copy
it wouldn't be, because that's sort of copyright, but it is relatively similar
Relatively similar takes it a bit lightly its basically a like, 95% exact copy lol
I agree, a lot of the visuals and general vibes is taken from HK. It really feels like someone played HK and thought "why don't we make something like that"
But the gameplay is substantially different judging from the first location.
Enemies are much beefier and you can't pogo, which actually changes things a lot. You have to parry and counter-attack instead, which means putting yourself in danger
same mechanics, same world style, different attack style, same artistic choices even
So you're telling me. I gotta do all this?
I mean not really
Is it not needed for the trophy?
It isnt

hello
hello coral guardian
i know the hardest trophy to get in HK
what do you think it is
uh the one where we have to beat the fifth pantheon
Eish. Well I’m not doing too poorly. I am sick AND I HATE IT
but i mean other than that it’s not too bad
Hope it all goes well
Haha get better soon Jesse, I've also been sick lately
I'd recommend trying the demo and getting to the boss at least. I wasn't impressed by the trailer, but I'm somewhat interested in the game now.
What they really need is to come up with an original story and world.
One of HK's biggest strengths was that Hallownest is just such an interesting setting to explore and learn about. Every place you visit feels memorable and like it has a reason to exist
Many other metroidvanias don't really capture that imo
And Deviator doesn't either, from what I played
yeah
I've never played a metroidvania besides the original ones, until I've played hollow knight, so I don't know much about the other ones
Oh yeah I've seen this deviator thingie before
Imma try the demo. It looks reeeallly similar to hollow knight. A lil too similar.
Just to savour pain and suffering
Ah
So I tried a bit of the demo for deviator
Only like 10 minutes of it, but its movement is nearly identical to hollow knight. And its animations are very similar.
I should try it but I'm to busy playing P3R
The only difference in the movement is the vaulting, which is cool
The parrying/counterattack mechanic is satisfying too, but really it just feels like a mod for hollow knight rather than its own thing.
Is this real?
?sspsa
Reminder: The latest news for both Hollow Knight and Silksong can be found in #hk-announcements.

@quartz lintel isn't this yours?
silksong releasing tomorrow fs
Why would silksong be in a nintendo direct
it wouldn't be
Nintendo wouldn't be the ones to give us news before team cherry does.
Right, that makes no sense
So how does it help?
is that a Yu-Gi-Oh card?
sorry to interrupt your convo but, has anyone played deviator demo? and if so what do you think about it?
ye
whats deviator?
Haven't seen one of those in ages haha, back when I was younger I used to have my own collection though, wbu?
i dont play yugioh
i just found this meme
thought it would revive chat and it worked
its like a hk clone, it has a demo now on steam
That's also alright, sweet meme you had there though
like a fangame or straight up copy
for me something inbetween
as long as it gives hk a little bit of credit then its both for me
Oh I believe I've heard and seen about it. Considering HK's success I guess it could be expected, although I haven't played for myself yet
Hey guys, hello
aw man i was late
Hello there
yo
Hello communist
chill
I came here to share a theory with you
Yes we are chilling. Nothing much ti do
The Knight is acctually the pure vessel.
Which knight
The knight, that we play
Pale king is black
what if the pure vessel was the hollow knight if he never was infected
that would make him PURE VOID
AND PURE VESSEL
No, because he was not able to stop the infection
basicly what im going for
But to stop the infection you have to defeat the radiance, that's why the knight is the pure vessel
...
wait a damn minute
Hmmm
HES RIGHT
A pure vessel need to have the proper will to fight the radiance and stop the infection forever
The pure vessel needs to choose his own path against radiance

best theory ive seen on this game
The Hollow Knight was not a pure vessel because he made what he was born for
The pure vessel has to fight against his own destiny(sealing the infection)
holy
I know, i'm a genius
A pure vessel needs to have absolutely no will
That's what makes it pure
still a good theory tho
That's what they thought, but think with me, if the pure vessel has no will, he'll seal the infection, only prolonging the lifetime of Hallownest, because the ONLY way to stop the infection is defeating radiance
The hollow knight didn't fail because it had no will, it failed because it wasn't truly thoughtless
But not if you defeat the radiance, which the knight does, making him the only ACTUAL hollow knight
why cant i enter his brain with my cool light sword
Should've put me in the egg, my smooth brain would have sealed it forever tbh on god
The only pure vessel
nah im dumber
Yes, because the knight has NO will at all
BUT HE HAS!!!
How
He chooses fighting radiance
he chose to jump off a cliff
Celeste
like 10 times
Because that's what vessels are supposed to do...
No, they're supposed to seal the infection, like THK did
They're SUPPOSED to stop the infection no matter the cost.
tk has a will explicitly, void heart says so
How
Also, TK has will because he savez Npcs, he can choose between finishing the Grimms ritual
If the knight could eat a hamburger do u think it would
He chooses to fight at the coleseum
Hungry knight...
Yeah because its a video game 

Byt that doesn't matter
Only reason knight go to hallownest was for borgor
But no borgor :(
No borgor = hollow knight
Only reason knight does anything is for borgor
The Knight is the pure vessel, and the only pure vessel that'll exist because he fought against his porpose
That's even why he got off the abyss after a knight was aleready chosen
And thk ate borgor so he became infected cuz of feelings for borgor
Exactly.
He ate rancid eggs

The knight even chooses to save the grubs, that's the best proof that he has proper mind and will
Even Hornet says that it's the knight choice to seal the infection or end everuthing forever
not all of you know why this is important, SOME OF YOU DO but most of you dont
i know why its important
That's cool
yo
Surely this won't backfire 
none of you get the refrence
none of you get it
The man who created this was found dead by suicide with 47 shots at the bacj
do i need to grab popcorn and wait for someone to get this refrence
Maybe
im just gonna say it
do any of you know ultrakill?
im just gonna explain it
so: in ultrakill you are a machine that was made for war and can REPAIR ITSELF WITH BLOOD
V1 IS IN REAL LIFE NOW
(v1 is the name of the machine)
yup
V1 was a rocket propelled bomb at WW2
How would that work
yes, theres also a bomb named v1
Just read the other messages i sent
There was the V2 rocket too
I don't think the player controlling the knight can be used as proof
Wtf
Well you seem to be listing off ways it doesn't follow PK's criteria, which would make it not pure
Oh my god.
