video-games

[vagrant sierra]

nah they want to be presented with something 😄

or WE

[hearty yarrow]

You'll ask them for feedback and you get as many people saying some thing sucks as people who say it's great

[vagrant sierra]

and it bettyer be good and also tick so many boxes its impossible

and peoples feedback is like 99% useless to them i imagine as well

[hearty yarrow]

I did community stuff for a pvp game and getting a read on the game's balance was like impossible

[vagrant sierra]

god we suck lol 😄

[hearty yarrow]

Cause everyone was like this is OP while also saying it should be buffed lol

[vagrant sierra]

yeah cos everuone thinks x class is op and ridiculous and they are UP etc

[hearty yarrow]

Which is why devs just balance on data more

[vagrant sierra]

"Only my skill allows me to succseed"

[hearty yarrow]

Vibes balancing is mostly done when the noises get too loud to ignore lol

[vagrant sierra]

haha yeah

[white lotus]

Even meme bosses kill me... T_T

[hearty yarrow]

Or when you want people to notice something

Like league of legends balance team will buff smth that is already really strong in data because the playerbase is Not using it

So they can nerf it a patch later

[vagrant sierra]

yea

[hearty yarrow]

Without making people mad

[vagrant sierra]

i dont play mobas i never gelled wiuth them

[hearty yarrow]

The balance team has said that btw it's really funny

[vagrant sierra]

and now im old and slow and cant really playu at the standard i used in pvp games i was intersted in 😄

so i play mostly single player games now

oh and Eve online :d

[hearty yarrow]

Buff smth slightly to make sure it being OP is noticed (when it has been OP for a while), so you can nerf it and have it make sense to the community is a really funny way to have to do things lol

I speedrun more than pvp nowadays

But I still keep up

[vagrant sierra]

oh awesome

game of choice?

[hearty yarrow]

Being 30 (this month) is not too old yet

I started sorta with hades 1

[vagrant sierra]

im 47 tomorrow, so stuff like wow arena/counterstike i struggle with

[hearty yarrow]

Nowadays I Am Your Beast tho

Have a record still left there

[vagrant sierra]

speed running facinates me but not enough to want to do it 😄

oh nice

[hearty yarrow]

https://youtu.be/RS-iDCcpmnk?si=BNg5t9Nv-Oo2aM9c

[vagrant sierra]

one of my proudest achivementys was getting the factility cheat code in Goldeneye 😄

oh WR

[hearty yarrow]

Hell ye

Ye I used to have more but the new runners are insane

I'm more a router than someone who grinds down times

[vagrant sierra]

yeah u like finding yhe routes and all that?

that was pretty cool lol

like i can watch speed runsd and stuff cos the technicallty of it impresses me

but im no good at grinding things like out nowdays

oh i just got the ||sting shard trap. ||==- that thing is ridiuclouis

[light widget]

on a different note did one of you guys already notice what those || silkworms do? the ones you can consume, the german translation just says "it will spin a cocoon upon death in fight", but aren't you doing that already xd||

[vagrant sierra]

i used to play a LOT of sc2 , i still love to watch it, but my brain would melt if i tried to play that

[vagrant sierra]

sounds like a 2nd life

havent come across it yet

[light widget]

|| no i just died 😐||

[vagrant sierra]

||like u die and YOU get cacooned ||

oh

wot did it do ?

[light widget]

|| nothing xd, might be a steel soul item, and you lose all your currency if you die and that one works like it is working in the base game anyway ||

[vagrant sierra]

ahh ok yeah

i remnember the item

meh

im trying to make myself use the tools mow

now i got this OP thing i might make it use it more

[feral bobcat]

yo these gay clankas kinda got hands

[light widget]

tool || the trap tool can isntakill an enemy if it is on top of them when they get summoned/spawned it , worked 3-4 times for me already ||

[white lotus]

After losing 500 Moni i understand that maybe maybe, paying ||20|| to make a ||rosary|| isn't that expensive

[light widget]

funny guy, lost almost 3k in act 2 alone ;I so i dont even think about it anymore and just change when i can 🤣

[vagrant sierra]

yeah ill get one once im got that sorta stuff

hahha

im really digging hornets manuverbility

excuse spelling

[white lotus]

Yeah, after restarting I managed to not lose that much if none at all. Now that the content is new it's different 😒

[vagrant sierra]

cant wait to get the things thaty change ur moves

[light widget]

sadly enough my problem isnt money but keys 💀

[white lotus]

Yeah I can imagine... 😢 Even right now I want keys

[white lotus]

Yeah I am stuck on ||killing a boss|| for one of those

And get a key for another one

[unique lily]

I found a sick farming spot for rosaries that gives you like 200 per pass

the enemies are also really fun to fight

[light widget]

||the big guys on top of the choire, next to the first temple ? ||

[unique lily]

yep

[light widget]

i dont like em 😒

[feral bobcat]

temple or shrine

[unique lily]

shrine

[unique lily]

I love those guys bc they're challenging enough to let me test out combat tech and tools

[feral bobcat]

pls tell me the ||clankwork gays|| dont have more than 3 phases

[light widget]

https://tenor.com/view/peter-griffin-family-guy-perhaps-gif-3738997818221694841

[unique lily]

they have 3

[feral bobcat]

aight can beat them then

[light widget]

love me a quest that says "run around the whole map to find stuff"

[unique lily]

the best ones 🔥

they help me relax when I'm getting my ass beat 😭

[hearty yarrow]

Why are you calling them gays I am not there yet what is going on

[light widget]

but im doing the quest, because im getting my ass beat 💀 and i wanna progress but quests like that i dont quite 100% like q.q

[light widget]

do you wanna know click here: ||they are clockwork dancers ||

[unique lily]

there's a say gex scene mid bossfight

[hearty yarrow]

I still dont get it

[feral bobcat]

yea mad heavy

[light widget]

|| dancing = gay smh||

[hearty yarrow]

Why

[light widget]

idk tbh

[vagrant sierra]

just meme stuff lol

how many of the|| crests ||are there

[unique lily]

I have 4 rn and I'm like in the middle of act 2

one of them is considerably more ass than the others

[feral bobcat]

it rhymes with east

[hearty yarrow]

I have 4 total in act 1

[light widget]

|| ye they are all accessible in act 1 ||

[unique lily]

I mostly switch between ||hunter|| for combat and ||reaper|| for platforming. I'm also warming up to ||wanderer|| which might have the most potential out of all of them if you can get used to ||the short range||

[hearty yarrow]

||beast|| seems good for bossfighting

High dps potential

[feral bobcat]

how is ||hunter || for combat ||reaper is much smoother||

[vagrant sierra]

i love the soiund of this system

[hearty yarrow]

I use ||reaper|| for almost everything cause the increased silk means more skills

[vagrant sierra]

lots of variation

[unique lily]

idk I like the ||hunter|| pogo a lot for combat and it rewards being aggressive with the focus mechanic you get with the upgrade

has amazing synergy with ||flea brew||

[hearty yarrow]

Love that tool

Am using ||venom + tools it turns the brew into a fart cloud lol||

[feral bobcat]

i like ||reaper with flea brew||

also is the fasrming spot right before ||clankers|| or

[unique lily]

yea those big guys in the hallways before and after the clankers. I think there's 5 in total

[feral bobcat]

i found 3

[unique lily]

there's 2 more to the left side of the clanker room

[feral bobcat]

understandable

[vagrant sierra]

omg this is really making me wants to progress , ive skipped a zone and need to go back there ||The ant place || ive endced up in ||Greymoo||r
|| fighting birrds

[jolly locust]

just beat ||last judge||, why are all bosses so insanely good, love them all except ||beastfly wich just sucks ass and is unfun||

[feral bobcat]

BEAT THE CLANKERS

THANSK YOU ||FLEA BREW||

[jolly locust]

i keep accidently skipping cutscenes when alt tabbing

[feral bobcat]

i do it by pressing screenshot

[jolly locust]

i can just watch them on youtube later

[vagrant sierra]

🙁

[hearty yarrow]

Simply dont alt tab

Have focus

[vagrant sierra]

yeah lets face it ill have to watch a lore video at some point

[feral bobcat]

||clankwork gays|| at 6.8% achievement rate on steam hell yea

[hearty yarrow]

These games have lore?

[feral bobcat]

im getting there

[vagrant sierra]

..

[feral bobcat]

gotta get these numbers early

[vagrant sierra]

sarcasm/

hk lore is kinda insane

these birbs are reaaaaaly annoying lol

[hearty yarrow]

I know this but I also dont know any lore lol

I play for the gameplay

[vagrant sierra]

yeah i dont knw any of it either, i just know there is laods of it and its apprently good lol

its beyond me to piece it together so id hase to watch a cvido

video

[feral bobcat]

oh yea this area insane for farming

i prob lost like 1k just by dying to the boss after them

[jolly locust]

wich one+

?

one of my friends shared his farming spot earlier, hes at like 4000 rosaries or something

[light widget]

thats the same one

[jolly locust]

ah good to know, gonna go to it asap

[vagrant sierra]

i should proably go back and finish ||ant area ||b4 diving ant areainto ||Greymoor?||

noobe you used that spike trap at all btw?

[jolly locust]

its not a bad area, the only issue is it being placed so early without being locked behind progression so everyone goes there lol

[jolly locust]

wich one?

[vagrant sierra]

||sting shard||

yeah i mean i popped in there and it was clleary more difficult than the other area so just dipped

[jolly locust]

i dont really use any of those tbh

[vagrant sierra]

its crazy aor burst

aoe

[jolly locust]

oh wait i dont think ive unlocked that one yet actually

[vagrant sierra]

gonna make an effort to check all thse outy

yeah its REALLY good

i got one tools upgrade as well

[jolly locust]

been like everywhere but cant find it, maybe ill just look it up

[vagrant sierra]

its just from the usual vendor

oh i guess u missed her

she kinda in the mdidle of ur route so ill be surprised

[jolly locust]

ive been struggling with rosaries so havent bought that much

[vagrant sierra]

yeah im, jut sticking to my when i go new zone the first pilgram area im in i farm for like 2 respawns

i still have a ton of stuff to buy but its keeping me kinda ok

im getting actually wrecked by this bird atm lol

[dense kindle]

I'm in act 2 whoopie

[vagrant sierra]

nice

[dense kindle]

the first zone sucked but everything else has been not too bad

they really do give you a zone where every bench costs money, and enemies drop little money, and you're trapped with no teleport
I get it's commentary but still

[vagrant sierra]

im really love the atmosphere, HK was good but his is reall really awesome

[dense kindle]

definitely

[vagrant sierra]

hha yeah

and then u cant afford the bel;lway either

😄

[dense kindle]

the bellway was in the second zone after I farmed up some money thank god

[vagrant sierra]

it was alright when it was 30 a bench , got to this zone and it was bloiody 80

[dense kindle]

at least they don't charge you PER USE

[vagrant sierra]

bruh that ||pilgrim shop|| that does

[dense kindle]

Silksong early game definitely stretches your wallet to the limit

[jolly locust]

ive noticed that the early game is very rough but once you get to the ||citadel|| it seems to feel a lot better plus a good rosaries farm aswell

[vagrant sierra]

it was fine tho tbh, first thin i just bought evrrything map maker sold

[jolly locust]

why does so few enemies drop rosaries anyways

[dense kindle]

yeah definitely. enemies are tough, but not too tough, and they drop good money

[vagrant sierra]

get it all out of thr way

i think the difficulty balance is excellent so far tbh

[dense kindle]

beasts don't have money. Poor pilgrims don't have much money

That's the idea but it still makes me mad

I wish I could cash out shards for rosaries

even for something like a 10 to 1 ratio

[jolly locust]

ah i see, dont really understand why they want that kind of realism in this game but sure

[vagrant sierra]

yeah would be good but shards are so common it would break their economy balance

i didnt even think of that way tbh, but it was cool

[dense kindle]

it just feels bad though to get a bunch of shards as a reward
when I'm maxed on shards

[vagrant sierra]

yeah use ur tools mroe !

im making an effort to weave them into my combat non stop now

[light widget]

didnt the bosses in HK give you geo? cause bosses/fixed arena fights give you no recources

[jolly locust]

i think there is some very good ones towards the late game, saw someone say they beat a boss by only spamming tools mostly

[vagrant sierra]

yeh areann nothing, but often thewre was chest after boss area with geo

yeah also u upgrade their dmg with new tool bags

this thing im using atm is really good

[jolly locust]

dont have that yet either lol

[vagrant sierra]

it has a short cd tho which annoys me lol

[jolly locust]

need to go back to the lava area

[vagrant sierra]

,maybe u missed that vendor

[jolly locust]

i didnt

i know where i can buy it

[vagrant sierra]

im just sitting here listening to the haunting music of the zone and the map dude singing

its so fkn cool

wow its actualy an awesome piece of music , im in g||reymoor||

[unique lily]

does anyone else really enjoy the ||tracking|| quests? I like them so much and I dont even know why lol

[feral bobcat]

yea fr

smelling stuff

[light widget]

||na i hate the quest to get the +2 😠 like you telling my i gotta find the stuff q.q||

[dense kindle]

many bosses didn't

[unique lily]

I loved figuring that one out 😭

[dense kindle]

I enjoy it too

[light widget]

||well atleast let me just collect them but freaking 430 for some stupid nextar 💀 ?!||

[dense kindle]

this one was like "WHERE TF DID YOU GO HOW DID YOU GO SO FAR"

[unique lily]

capitalism is rampant in pharloom 😔

[light widget]

ohh god, it just got worse 😐 i hate this quest even more q,q

[vagrant sierra]

i loved all of hks ost but this is something else tbh

[dense kindle]

silksong's ost is crazy good

I think HK's ost could have the issue of being a bit too repetitive without melody sometimes, especially with some early bossfights

[jolly locust]

each new area i find just keeps being better than the last one

[feral bobcat]

AINT NO WAY I DIE 1 MILIMETER AWAY FROMMY GHOST

[light widget]

thats how i lose 99% of my money all the time

[echo hazel]

so open this piece by piece cause it may be spoilers to even you guys

1. ||the monster on the right side of pilgrim's rest||
2. if you ||play him music with the music ability, he gives you a hint of sort||
3. it's as follows: ||vast... wild... gouging rock, scarred shell! break through!||
   does that ring a bell to you guys? and if so is it in act 1?

[feral bobcat]

nah

[echo hazel]

"ring a bell" hehe that was unintentional

[light widget]

||i would say that sounds like either worm or second to last area, because those are the only one that are rock? or does it just mean vast field and look for a rock 💀 ||

[echo hazel]

there's an area on the left side of ||shellwood||, i haven't explored it yet, would it fit the description?

[jolly locust]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1334746789882105900/1413966132003471551/image.png?ex=68bdda14&is=68bc8894&hm=dc88b0241d7dda70c24c0a2e9369971edfcc1ea3c8af5c600cc8e458ca378442&

[echo hazel]

anyway i feel so smart for ||playing him music|| 🧠

kneel before me peasants 😏

[light widget]

|| it could but idk where the rock could be from the description ||

[echo hazel]

what about ||scarred shell||

[light widget]

|| i made him despawn by opening the door and leaving 💀 ||

[echo hazel]

how did you even do that

[light widget]

|| thats what i meant with rock xd ||

[echo hazel]

where's the ||switch to open the door||

[light widget]

|| jump over him and used the lever xd ||

[jolly locust]

i realized that you can ||open those gates that you cant interact with by playing music aswell||

[vagrant sierra]

these birds better give me a reward at the end of this

[echo hazel]

yeah that's... the whole point of the ability...

This is @elder ivy

[echo hazel]

do you even know who I'm talking about?

[jolly locust]

i used it when sitting at benches, its therapeutic

[light widget]

well im looking at the german names so i had to guess which area you meant xd

so i might have looked on the wrong one kek

[echo hazel]

the guy on the right side ||of pilgrim's rest|| who keeps ||banging himself to the door||

[feral bobcat]

ia tually hate this magma area

[echo hazel]

the place where you have to ||pay money to use a bench||

[light widget]

|| ye and that guy has a lever over the door xd||

[vagrant sierra]

its so good. Greymoor has the best ambient ive heared so far its SO haunting, with the map maker juust humminbg in the background,

itss amazxing lol

[echo hazel]

i didn't see no lever

[light widget]

well i had one and i used it, walked out and back in and he was gone xd

wait, was it the || big fly or the beetle? cause i might be switching my guys running their head into the door up xd||

[echo hazel]

you can't even see him

it's a big door and on the other ||and something from the other side keeps banging into it, shaking the whole wall||

[light widget]

|| OHHHHH LOL you did it from that side xd, ye im talking about THE OTHER SIDE of that door 🤣 ||

[feral bobcat]

ALL OF THIS

FOR SOEM ||METAL||???

[echo hazel]

how do you even get the other side

[feral bobcat]

RGHHH

[light widget]

do you wanna know or explore? or jsut a hint

[echo hazel]

hint

cause i see absolutely nothing that could lead there

[light widget]

||look past a friendly beetle ||

[feral bobcat]

at least i found ||harpoon||

[echo hazel]

aight I'll check later 👍

[vagrant sierra]

ok well this gaunlet is actually tough lol

[unique lily]

its so peak in combat

[feral bobcat]

it has such a bad delay tho

like even to the rings i keep dying to magma cuz it wont casr

casr

cast

[unique lily]

what delay lol?

[feral bobcat]

i fire it and then takes forever for a second one

like it just doesnt read the input at all

[unique lily]

it... costs silk

[light widget]

if you are out of silk it needs to recharge

[unique lily]

maybe you ran out?

[feral bobcat]

fk

[vagrant sierra]

🙂

[feral bobcat]

wait no

cuz i can reuse it

but like 1 sec landee

later

like ill use it, i jump in the air after landing on a ring, use again but it doesnt actually happen

[unique lily]

you regen one round of silk every few seconds

only when at 0 silk

its the effect of the silk heart you got from defeating the bell beast way back then

[feral bobcat]

still doubt that its that

[unique lily]

there's no input delay man, I have been playing with it for hours. you prolly just ran out of silk

I did a bunch of parkour sections with it too

[feral bobcat]

Also game crashed again lmao

Ill try harpoon w a different keybind maybe my keys are dying but idk

[jolly locust]

i might need progression help, for the first time in 20 hours im actually stuck, gonna check another area again, probably just missed a door

[dense kindle]

I just finished first boss in Act 2 so prob can't help

[light widget]

act 1 or 2

[dense kindle]

20 hours is prob late act 2 or act 3 right?

[jolly locust]

unsure, i accidently skipped the cutscene after ||last judge||

[dense kindle]

the game is probably 3 acts if I had to guess

[light widget]

act 2 then

[jolly locust]

ah yeah

[dense kindle]

Last Judge is the door for Act 2, yeah

don't skip the cutscenes madge

U dont really have free slots

[jolly locust]

[feral bobcat]

I guess

[jolly locust]

i use it on some atleast but thats just me not finding that many good ones yet

[light widget]

found that around ||50% into ark 2 xd ||

[jolly locust]

oh thats rough lol

[dense kindle]

I don't have any good combat relics so far, mid act 2 lol

a lot relies on the consumable tools

[feral bobcat]

I save the tools for spamming bosses lmao

[light widget]

thats the point i think || tools = combat, relics = passive helpers||

[dense kindle]

ok but these blue relics are pretty damn weak

[jolly locust]

there is apparently quite many relics aswell

[light widget]

|| faster healing and more silk is weak ?||

[vagrant sierra]

the aoe mine is relly nice

buts its cd is to long for only 2 charges

oh that snot a relic

[jolly locust]

||fractured mask|| is insane aswell

[elder ivy]

Act 2 let's gooooooooooo

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-basketball-ice-dunk-hornet-gif-3999940650987546913

[echo hazel]

did any of yall find ||the mist|| in act 1?

and if so, did you manage to solve the puzzle

[unique lily]

so apparently majority of the negative reviews for skong are not from difficulty complaints and rather from poor chinese translation?

[jolly locust]

no

[unique lily]

nope

[echo hazel]

man I'm so good at finding secrets 🧠

[jolly locust]

yeah if you sort it after only chinese reviews the game shows up as "mixed"

[echo hazel]

and solving them without a guide too

[unique lily]

on a scale of 1-10, how secret was it? was it more hidden than the ||pimpillo||?

[vagrant sierra]

yeah once u get the wrath of those guys they have so many people

[echo hazel]

the same as pimpillo, it's a secret destructible wall

except there's a whole area behind it!!

and I'm in it right now!!

[unique lily]

I feel like secret walls are so much more blended in for this game 😭

[light widget]

left or right on the map 🤔

[echo hazel]

i check everywhere for secret walls

[unique lily]

gimme a hint

[echo hazel]

entrance is in ||sinner's road||

the area is sooo cool figuring out what's happening and then solving the puzzle felt amazing

[feral bobcat]

i dont even have that area godddamnit

[echo hazel]

HAVE Y'ALL NEVER PLAYED A METROIDVANIA

[unique lily]

damn I gotta go wrangle with the ||roaches|| again 😭

[echo hazel]

EXPLORE. THE. MAP

[feral bobcat]

i am cuh

[light widget]

i did but you are just the last 10% q.q

[feral bobcat]

u aint seeen my map?

[unique lily]

I'm trying my best 💔

[echo hazel]

well obviously not thorough enough 😭

I'm currently at 10.3 hours still in act 1

there's so much content

[unique lily]

I ended act 1 at like 16 hours

[jolly locust]

i reached act 2 at 19 hours

[echo hazel]

ah I'm still not too far in then

good 🔥

[jolly locust]

there is an achivement to complete the game in 5 hours though

how doable that is i dont know lol

[light widget]

riught now i cant see that happening lmao xD maybe in a few weeks/months xd

[jolly locust]

[echo hazel]

if i figured it out then so can you 🫵 👍

but if you needed a hint then @ me

[feral bobcat]

wherers the goddamn ||sinner area tho||

[echo hazel]

also beware the boss at the end has a TON of hp

[light widget]

https://tenor.com/view/up-higher-100k-btc-bitcoin-gif-10989690255873800070

[echo hazel]

but the runback is short

[echo hazel]

do you want a hint?

[feral bobcat]

more up than all the ||citadel|| stuff??

[echo hazel]

nope

[feral bobcat]

[echo hazel]

i don't even know where that is

[echo hazel]

[echo hazel]

I'm doing all the parkour with the starting one

i love the new downwards pogo

have found three other ||crests|| but none are as fun as the starting one

[light widget]

ye learned to love it aswell but its a lot less stress with enemys around with || the wanderer ||

[echo hazel]

oh my god upgraded nail with ||evolved hunter's crest|| is so strong

I've doubled my damage i think

[feral bobcat]

tf is ||evolded|| lmao

[echo hazel]

fixed it

basically i ||upgraded my crest||

[feral bobcat]

is it with the ||craft kit||

or the ||lockets||

[echo hazel]

nope, it's in an area

you can access it when you get the ||music ability||

[vagrant sierra]

do none of u use the angle pogo anymore?

[light widget]

pizza does*

[echo hazel]

I'm using it

i love ||hunter's crest|| all my homies love ||hunter's crest||

[feral bobcat]

||reaper gang||

[vagrant sierra]

im really enjoying it

i found if u complete the somesault animation ull be lined up perfectoly for a chain pogo

[echo hazel]

have yall found the ||beast crest||

the pogo is absolutely insane

[vagrant sierra]

i have no crests 🙁

[echo hazel]

no idea how it's even supposed to be used

[vagrant sierra]

im such a noob

im so invested in this gauntlet now i have to beat it lol

[feral bobcat]

i did

its cheeks

[vagrant sierra]

100% arse?

[feral bobcat]

Crashed again bro

Idk i hate it
Bad pogo and wack heal

If ure cracked maybe its good for bossing but otherwise not my pick

[vagrant sierra]

i dunno if im gonn wanna give up the angle pogo now tbh

fml i did 3 rounds of this gauntlet no hit and the just died to stupidty like iforgot how to play lol

[white lotus]

Omg wtf is happening in act one??? I'm clearly not at the end and wtf!!! ||Naked hornet wasn't in my bingo card!||

[light widget]

|| that happened in act 2 for me 💀how did you trigger it in 1 ||

[white lotus]

Are we talking about ||the slab||?

[light widget]

yes

[feral bobcat]

Something to look forward to

[white lotus]

I went to a certain location you can access only after getting ||wall jump||

[feral bobcat]

I thought u meant the ||seamstress||

[white lotus]

Well ok that happened, but not like this

[feral bobcat]

Hooo boi

[echo hazel]

yeah you only realize ||how massive her head is after that||

[white lotus]

THATS IS SO EFFIN TRUE🤣

[light widget]

||my head cannon is the horns are also a mask and her head is also tiny !||

[echo hazel]

omg the ||parry|| spell is so goooood

[feral bobcat]

The sound of ringing bells is stuck in my head

[jolly locust]

just killed the ||cogwork dancers|| in act 2, that was insane, the start of the game was very rough but once you get through that everything is just peak

i keep getting blown away

[feral bobcat]

Goated

[jolly locust]

i keep doing poorly with ||reapers|| crest and then i just win everytime i swap to ||wanderers|| crest

[feral bobcat]

Not goated

||reaper|| my beloved

Idk where to even get the other one but ION NEED IT

[jolly locust]

kinda sucks that i ||have to be so close but the attackspeed really helps a lot for damage and silk regain||

[elder ivy]

@boreal isle have you finished the game yet lol?

[feral bobcat]

IM A ||REAPER|| MAIN

[jolly locust]

looked up how many there is on the wiki but didnt read what they do, there is so many side areas in this game it seems lol

can you really main something if its your only choice? lol

[vagrant sierra]

i did it:D

[jolly locust]

[feral bobcat]

I dont swap ||crests||, i dont strategize , i MAIN
And if i dont win, i blame the game

Insert meme with ego from ratatouille

No ive ||beast and hunter|| too

[jolly locust]

have you tried ||wanderer|| btw?

[feral bobcat]

Dont have it

[jolly locust]

it also has a ||down pogo|| lol

[feral bobcat]

Idk where to find it

Ion need it

I got my beloved

[jolly locust]

its in the game

[white lotus]

It was worthy to ||get thrown into the slab|| just so that I could ||save a single cute flea||

[jolly locust]

im a little lost btw

[elder ivy]

This game has so many characters you meet btw it's crazy..... I really love it wow

[jolly locust]

so i just killed that boss mentioned above but i still cant find the map of this area lol

[feral bobcat]

Aint no way

[jolly locust]

i really like that area tbh, i was just ||walking in a random region and got stuck in a cage out of nowhere, throws you offguard||

[jolly locust]

quite literally 9.5/10 experience

[vagrant sierra]

thats cool with the|| stiing shard trap|| u can hit i||t urself to activte it ||

[elder ivy]

9.5 😭 😭 😭

just say 10!!

[jolly locust]

cant be 10, its a game with a permadeath mode, same with HK

[feral bobcat]

11

[vagrant sierra]

wot woulkd it take to squeeze the other 0.5 out of u

[jolly locust]

wich means i cant get all achivements

both ori games aswell

[elder ivy]

12!!!

[jolly locust]

it all sucks

[vagrant sierra]

man i remmeber playing the first ori for tthe first time

and u get THAT intro

and then the boss level racing the water up the tree

so GOOD

[jolly locust]

need ori 3

probably never happening though

[white lotus]

EXACTLY

[vagrant sierra]

microsdoft are dropping so many bvalls

[feral bobcat]

I aint even counting nomore

[white lotus]

What do you mean?

[feral bobcat]

I used to play ori then got stuck somewhere and dropped it lmao

[vagrant sierra]

they are really nice games

u lot played nine sols btw?

[feral bobcat]

No but shouldve

[white lotus]

Hornet here literally ||breaking rocks with her bare legs|| damn...

[vagrant sierra]

that is a GREAT lil vania

[white lotus]

It's good but it doesn't compare to hk

[echo hazel]

it's been a 10/10 for me so far

not even fanboying, it's genuinely good

[vagrant sierra]

its a pretty different style tbh

but yeah i played it once through and that was it

its not like a replay type of game

[feral bobcat]

LMAO

SO THERES A PARKOUR AREA || WITH THE slabs that pull in and out||

but i just pogod off the spikes

[jolly locust]

@white lotus i just dont like permadeath modes in any game, adds nothing, in hk it wasnt that bad but you will not see me even bother to attempt it in this game lol, even if you quit to main menu as you're about to die.. i love getting all achievements in games but havent in both ori games for the same reason

[jolly locust]

The 7 years was worth it, and future dlcs confirmed

[white lotus]

This is also part of the problem

[white lotus]

And maybe I am too critical but it felt very linear...:(

[elder ivy]

I cant agree more

[jolly locust]

I could and will cry

[white lotus]

Oh Ori i am still missing a lot... I hated the permanently closed areas... 🙁
I will get to it at some point.
But judging a game because of its achievements is kinda harsh don't you think?

[jolly locust]

I mean i think a 9.5 rating is still pretty good

I still 100% both games twice

[white lotus]

It's 10/10
If I start fanboying I don't think I will stop giving it points

And I have yet to finish the game

[jolly locust]

Both ori games are among my absolute favorite games, just sucks that the achievements are kinda meh

[white lotus]

It is, we are very snob here and only want 10s😅

[jolly locust]

I only play good games

[white lotus]

I still need to suffer in ori and Nine sols.
SS comes first

I do sometimes fail that rule... T_T

[jolly locust]

Hades 2 aswell, 10/10.. not only because its good but because imo every single thing about it is an improvement to the first one

[vagrant sierra]

the combat got a lot of flack in teh 2nd one but i enjoyed it

ori)

[jolly locust]

Same

[feral bobcat]

bro another area no map

[vagrant sierra]

nine sols is really cool tho with excellent music and super weird story

the combat is fkn sick

[white lotus]

I actually didn't enjoy Ori. Mostly because I came from Celeste and HK and the movement there is a lot more tighter and was surprised people were praising it

[vagrant sierra]

yeah its kinda floaty right?

compared to celeste thgat would be super weird

[white lotus]

Yes... And not as responsive

Air friction I think it's called

It's a nightmare like supermeat boy

[white lotus]

I still need to 100% that one

[vagrant sierra]

ud probaly enjoy it playing cold not coming from something like celeste

[jolly locust]

For me it was the other way around, couldnt really get into celeste, also dont like hk's movement that much either

[vagrant sierra]

i played so so so much supermeaboy

the gamne is the epiome of one more go

[white lotus]

Yeah... I got corrupted by amazing platforming peak

[white lotus]

Well then that makes sense!:)

[vagrant sierra]

celeste was so well done

[white lotus]

Yes. He did such a well job!
AND HE ITERATED IN THE END IS NIGH

[vagrant sierra]

normal mode is kinda cool and chill - and then u have to get the collectables and it becomes savage

[white lotus]

Also after playing the end is nigh I finally saw where Celeste took inspiration

[white lotus]

In Celeste? Yeah... I am still missing an achievement

Damn

[vagrant sierra]

wings of vi was am awesome game as well

but ended up just being to hard for me

SMB was the first platformer i played where u had a quick button to restart the round, so u could press it if u didnt get a jump or somethingf just poerfect game was like crack

[unique lily]

GOD WHAT IS WRONG WITH TEAM CHERRY AND REMOVING FLOORS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[vagrant sierra]

ok the ballon||s @ crow lake ||are starting to wind me up lol

[unique lily]

nvm I switched to ||reapers crest|| and won first try

[feral bobcat]

||reaper my goat||

[white lotus]

How many achievements do you people have at the moment?

[jolly locust]

12

[white lotus]

Damn I am behind

[jolly locust]

the numbers are insane on some of them lol, i dont wanna spoil how many skills and tools there is but i have like nothing compared to how many exists

love it

so much to do

[feral bobcat]

ye 12

[vagrant sierra]

i love that there is tons of relics and things gonna make for some fun buids

[white lotus]

Oh no I haven't looked at them, but that is so NICE TO HEAR

Btw... About ||the slab|| the scene where hornet ||instakills the guy who has her cloak by destroying his neck|| is peak

[feral bobcat]

ure telling me this guy isnt even a boos

NO WAY

NO WAY THERES MORE

NO WAY

[jolly locust]

what are you even up to

[dense kindle]

there's more

[feral bobcat]

theres ||a colloseum at the forge ||

[jolly locust]

oh thats nice to know

[feral bobcat]

dude therres like 7 layers to it

wtfff

WHAT

WHAT

WHAT

THIS ISNT FAIR

IT SPAWNED TWO OF THOSE

I THOUGHT IT WAS THE FINAL BOSS AGES AGO

[white lotus]

I always forget there's the dash downwards option

[feral bobcat]

what the hell did i run into

[dense kindle]

oh you're at the final boss?

[feral bobcat]

no lmao

||the forge||

[dense kindle]

That's act 2, right?

[feral bobcat]

yea

[vagrant sierra]

lol confuion

i hope the people that made the save file analyzer make one for this

[feral bobcat]

u ever just go fight a mob to get silk and heal

[vagrant sierra]

have u seen it?

[feral bobcat]

and end up taking more damage than u healed

[vagrant sierra]

i have lol

or died 😄

https://reznormichael.github.io/hollow-knight-completion-check/ had this fo HK it was sogood

[feral bobcat]

no way i die to a mid ass enemy AFTER CLEARING THE ||SAW PARKOUR||

[vagrant sierra]

noooo

b4 the bench:

?

wow i finally got t||hread storm|| that jumping puzzle was annoying lol

[feral bobcat]

theres no bench nearby

[vagrant sierra]

lame 🙁

[feral bobcat]

dude why they make these colloseums so impossible

[vagrant sierra]

oh is there one like in HK?

with the dreaded 3rd round

[feral bobcat]

theres like fo thsoe fights in the region im in rn

[vagrant sierra]

that fkn burd gauntlet

[feral bobcat]

and not only does it take heavy parkour to get there

[vagrant sierra]

was the hardest fight ive hjadf so fgar

[feral bobcat]

they also sapwn so many guys

and minibosses practicallyt with how hard they hit

[vagrant sierra]

and my reward - b||aloons to platform on lol ||

lol yeah the challenge is pretty full on tbh

so far nothing has felt wrong/unfair - all teh failings are my own

[feral bobcat]

just you wait

[white lotus]

Did you people first tried the ||chapel of the beast||? Am I the only one who is struggling?

[feral bobcat]

I JUST GOT THIS COLLOSEUM DONE HOOLY

and i need to defeat 9 MORE OF THOSE FINAL GUYS????

[feral bobcat]

no but it took time

got back to ti really late

[white lotus]

It is a little bit reassuring

Thank you

[feral bobcat]

ii may also be cheeks

who knows

[vagrant sierra]

im not struggling to the point im not enjoying myselgf or anything feels beyond me. I did find the bird gaunlet hard tho

just got the ||hunters journal||l . starting to feel like a proper HK game now LD

[feral bobcat]

hell yea

[vagrant sierra]

the zone is pretty spicy and te platforming has 100% gone up a tier of difficuotyt

[echo hazel]

grrr i unfortunately have to sleep

reached act 2

||last judge|| was tough, took me 4 attempts

i thought ||widow pulling a fake death was troll enough|| but ||last judge pulling a death bomb was absolutely evil|| 😂

third attempt died to it

[feral bobcat]

ure def doing better than me

took me so many tries vs her

[echo hazel]

i REALLY like how the game is much harder than hk

[vagrant sierra]

she is quite hard tho right?

[echo hazel]

i read some steam reviews and everyone was mad because of it

[vagrant sierra]

yeah i really enjoy the difficult

[echo hazel]

but i love it

[vagrant sierra]

it doesnt feel BS

wich is the important thing]

[echo hazel]

yeah every phase 2 move was super punishing

[vagrant sierra]

i got the ||aoe silk thing,|| wasnt impressed

[echo hazel]

her, ||widow|| and ||phantom|| have been the hardest ones so far

though i assume y'all haven't found ||phantom||

[vagrant sierra]

see i feel like they have done with the overworld what HK did withj the hard bosses, designed in a way to feel urself improving al;most every go

nah i still have to go to|| antplace|| and finish ||greymore|| where i am now

some of the enmies are really fun to fight, the waythey behave

[feral bobcat]

FOUND THE ||OIL|| FOR FREE YESSS

[faint hollow]

really wish I had this mindset, I'm finding it a chore to play

[feral bobcat]

you gotta like it harder

[faint hollow]

maybe I've lost the ability to play hard games, but the fun in fighting bossfights is not there anymore

the runbacks are just ridiculous and the damage feels way off imo

anyway I'm being a downer

the visuals and the interactivity of the world is genuinely very cool

[echo hazel]

the runbacks could've been a little easier yeah

[white lotus]

Nah, nothing changes. You hated the same things back in HK and in all other games you have played. The awe and amazement of the lore and the memory overwrote the dredge of going around and backtracking

[white lotus]

It was always like this

[faint hollow]

nah HK is way easier 💀

[echo hazel]

||last judge||'s runback was ridiculous 😭

[faint hollow]

you must be joking if you think Silksong is any way comparable to HK's difficulty

[white lotus]

Nah, I remember already hornet was a pain.

[faint hollow]

what

Hornet is so easy

[white lotus]

Maybe you are way forward than me

[echo hazel]

in hk you just get shade soul and abyss shriek asap, put on shaman stone and delete every boss

[feral bobcat]

screw that, wait until ufind the colloseum with ||saws|| i just had to go through

i basically went trhough path of pain to get there

[echo hazel]

here you actually have to... fight them... 😳

[feral bobcat]

aint no way

[white lotus]

That comes with the foresight knowledge though

[faint hollow]

you can fight bosses in HK without resorting to cheese tactics

[white lotus]

WHAT CHEESE TACTICS HAVE YOU FOUND IN SS??

[faint hollow]

except for cheesing one boss in gre||ymoore||, nothing

you just have to accept the fact that for a lot of the early game, you're gonna die in 3 hits

idk if it relents in the later stages of the game

[white lotus]

Well it was like that in HK as well for me

I concur that it is harder here, because I am indeed more skilled than I was, but the backtracking and the runback is the same

[faint hollow]

there are way more sources of 2 HP damage in SS than HK

💀

I think most people can agree that the runbacks are a lot harder/more tedious in SS

[feral bobcat]

yea

[vagrant sierra]

honestly HK only got hard with pantheon and bosses like NKG

that fkr took me a while to kill

but i LOVE LOVE that boss

u also gfet a LOT of openings to heal in find in ss

[faint hollow]

which makes sense as that's DLC

[feral bobcat]

lmao im at ||naked hornet||

[vagrant sierra]

im really enjhoying the difficulty of SS honestly

[faint hollow]

I am really envious

[vagrant sierra]

all mistkes are my own i feel, like i die cos im impatient or didnt read a tell

[faint hollow]

don't get me wrong I want to love this game

[vagrant sierra]

nah i understand man

not ragging on u

[faint hollow]

yea

[vagrant sierra]

im also LOVING the ambience and the ost espcially

spending a lot of time just sitting on abench listening to the moosic

[solar hound]

Those rosary beads are so annoying holy crap

[vagrant sierra]

just rolling around evrywhere but ur pocket?

[solar hound]

Yes

[vagrant sierra]

haha

[solar hound]

It feels almost like a prank

[vagrant sierra]

i guess latert when u spefically wanna farm an area for some ull throw the charm on

charm/relic?

[solar hound]

Yeah

But it doesn’t seem worth it to equip rn

[vagrant sierra]

nah not at all

[solar hound]

The charm system is disorienting

But fun

[vagrant sierra]

i like how they have done it

i havent got many yet tho

[solar hound]

I love how combat feels with the traps and stuff

[vagrant sierra]

apprently people were saying there is a LOT of rellics

[solar hound]

I think it’s actually better than the knight’s

[vagrant sierra]

would be nice for some cool build variety

it is 100% better

[solar hound]

Yippee

[vagrant sierra]

im also loviung the traps

forcubg nyseklf to use the toiolkit

[solar hound]

And being able to sprint is amazing

Ugh it’s great

[vagrant sierra]

im using the|| sting shard ||atm

i got one upgrade as wlel and if i place them well they do a ton of dmg

[solar hound]

Me too

[vagrant sierra]

but some enmies seem kinda smart they way they counter ur moves or set u up for big attack, they ll also shoot my traos!

[solar hound]

I was worried it would be hard to use but it’s actually super intuitive

[vagrant sierra]

yeah its fine

[solar hound]

Shawing away

[echo hazel]

the ever reliable ||rosary magnet||:

[vagrant sierra]

magnet is blkue right>

?

[echo hazel]

nope, yellow

[vagrant sierra]

hmm

[echo hazel]

i have it on with ||compass||

[vagrant sierra]

maybe ill go get it actuyakky

[solar hound]

:pI like having the compass equipped

[unique lily]

don't you love it when you find a whole ass boss in a random corner of the map that you thought you explored already

this game has so many elden ring moments its crazy

[vagrant sierra]

im using d||ruids eye ||in blue atm but its very underwealming

[solar hound]

I like druids eye, it’s just diet grubsong

[vagrant sierra]

hha yeah that is awesome

[echo hazel]

try using the ||needolin|| in the ||bone bottom camp||

[white lotus]

Sorry for the spoiler... 🙁
BUT ENJOY LMAO

[vagrant sierra]

im a sucker for compass as well tbh, but the levels are designed pretty well , i think it wount be to bad without it

sadberry out here spoiking things?>

[feral bobcat]

tahnk god for traps lmao

[solar hound]

One thing though is that I miss the ambience of HK

[white lotus]

OH GOD YES

[solar hound]

Obviously the sequel should have a different vibe but I’m a sucker for eerie, abandoned Hallownest

[white lotus]

True...

[vagrant sierra]

i dunnoi man, i am LOVING what they have done with the palce, but i get what u mean

[white lotus]

As I said before I miss the complete sense of being lost of HK

And not knowing what am I even doing here

[vagrant sierra]

yeah but well never havet hat feeling againb sadfly

and thats downb to experience

[white lotus]

In SS I know precisely what I am doing

[vagrant sierra]

ALSO OMG at the drum roll in the OST in this part im in

[solar hound]

Sequels and their consequences really

[vagrant sierra]

its absolutly amazing

like a erie calm m,elody and then the big drums rumble

holy ....

[solar hound]

Hornet’s parachute is so stupid and hilarious

[vagrant sierra]

i might actually have to get the ost

[solar hound]

I’m not sure if that’s how it’s meant to feel but watching her sway back and forth as she floats down is just so funny

[vagrant sierra]

hahah

yeah also combined with uyr dash and pogo its really addds some manorving choices

[feral bobcat]

next level strat
i couldnt do a parkour somehwere so i died and then used my ghost as a pogo

[vagrant sierra]

wth

stop this man!

oh i got the quest u lot were talking about earlier ||the sniff the poo one ||

[feral bobcat]

LMFAO

[vagrant sierra]

and im dead

lol

its really nice being in at the start of this game HK was already full released with al dlcs b4 i got into it

[faint hollow]

lol I liked this quest

[vagrant sierra]

i comp[l;eted it and like 100% but then obv used checklists to get to the 111% ( no 112 cos i failerd to kill PV ) 🙁

[white lotus]

But why is it better?

[vagrant sierra]

its just a u know "part of exploring at the start" type thing

jhust nerd stuff i guess

i know its functionally rhe sane thing, anbd i doubt ill be figuring out something "first" but ts still nice

lol u know the benches wiuth the bells? well thge first timre i unlocked i rang the bells as they rising up and i thought i HAD to do that to unlock the bench after paying for it. and cos i did it on my first bench i was doing it to al the othres cos i thought thats what u had to do

[solar hound]

Why do enemies have so much health

[vagrant sierra]

cos we are weak and feeble

she said at the sstart shes lost all her power/str and i think a lot of this 2 mask dmg , low attack power is ment to show that

i could be talking out of my arse

but it sound right

i remember play HK and if u went into a new area and the critter enemies took 4 hits u jusy left and went elsewhere

[solar hound]

I don’t mean from an in game perspective I mean why is this mini boss a 6 minute encounter

Like surely I have dealt enough damage

[vagrant sierra]

yah if u havent died fighting a boss for 6 min , should be overish really, especilly just a mini boss

my hardest encounter so far was one of the gauntlets

by far the thing i have spent the most goes on

[unique lily]

team cherry does duo boss fights so incredibly well. I have only found 2 so far and both have been super fun

I might also have found the new and improved mantis lords

[solar hound]

Just died parkouring

Diagonal dash is sickening

[white lotus]

I do wonder if they fine tuned the game for HK people or for new people

[solar hound]

It makes me feel really cool when I get it right though

[feral bobcat]

yooo ||necksnap||

[unique lily]

45 degree angles baybee

[white lotus]

Maybe they said "people say HK is a souls like! Let us play Bloodborne, DS1-2-3, sekiro, lies of pi, elden rinf and then use them as reference!"

[white lotus]

It feels like we are back with Brooke making angle jokes

[feral bobcat]

is it clankers

or much farther

[unique lily]

its clankers

[feral bobcat]

do the gay boys resurret

[unique lily]

||the end of the clanker gays fight is so sad||

[elder ivy]

[unique lily]

[solar hound]

My issue is that I keep side dashing instead of pogoing because I’m trying too hard to aim

[solar hound]

LMAO

[elder ivy]

[feral bobcat]

[solar hound]

If I die for a third time I’ll hold off

[solar hound]

glad to see team cherry is still keeping the tradition of removing the floor from a boss fight

[vagrant sierra]

i was honestly surprised at the outrage on the difficulty

[feral bobcat]

I know right??? probably a top 3 boss so far those ||flame ring attacks|| were so cool looking

[feral bobcat]

ye

[unique lily]

I call them combat rooms

[vagrant sierra]

[solar hound]

Some of these regular enemies have movesets that are as difficult as actual HK bosses or minibosses

What the hell

[vagrant sierra]

[elder ivy]

Yep!!!

[unique lily]

I've been saying the same thing

[elder ivy]

It's insane!!!

[unique lily]
