[echo hazel]

i wonder what's the highest score any player has reached in them

[jolly locust]

ive done the flea games, idk how to feel about them lol

[unique lily]

lmao I just turned my ||heal|| into a nuke button

used ||witch crest|| and ||the trobbio mirrors|| for it

like the roots already did nasty damage but this is just ridiculous

[feral bobcat]

second time choking

[jolly locust]

does it still|| heal 3? ||

[unique lily]

yes

imagine having heal and silkstorm in one button

only drawback is that if you don't hit anything, you don't heal

[elder ivy]

I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS

talking about the ||bilewater gauntlet|| 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

and before you say it YES I DID ||FIND THE HIDDEN BENCH!! it helps... but it's still awful!!!||

[feral bobcat]

third time

dude

urgh

why am i so blind

[unique lily]

do you have the maggot immunity thing?

[jolly locust]

ah right

[jolly locust]

i tried it out some more after trashtalking it quite a bit earlier today but im liking this a lot, besides the amount of blue you have is wild

[unique lily]

oh wow I found some interesting lore in the journal. Apparently Hornet had ||mate(s?) at some point in her life but none lived a life as long as her||

[jolly locust]

if only there was a boss rush so i could actually test out stuff better towards stuff that doesnt die instantly

🙂

[unique lily]

team cherry please 🙏

there's so much stuff I wanna test out its insane

I better make a list atp

[jolly locust]

im sure there is more blue tools that are better than what i have but gonna try one more boss with ||witch|| crest

ah right you can just redo the final boss constantly i guess

[unique lily]

not if you're in act 3 💔

[jolly locust]

there will be another final boss im sure

but yeah

do you have all blue tools?

[unique lily]

nah not even close lol

[jolly locust]

wanted to know if you had a good ||witch|| crest build

i like mine a lot for now though

[feral bobcat]

no wy

no way dude

i just got hit by the most undodgeable grab

and i was the closest so far

[jolly locust]

polyphemus flashbacks

[feral bobcat]

i was in the corner

had spikes leftside

grab spawns on me

second spawns where i would jump

[jolly locust]

what are you doing?

[feral bobcat]

||twisted bud gilf||

skill issue ofc but whatever

[jolly locust]

ah

[feral bobcat]

im playing tf2 and silksong at the same time too lmao

[feral bobcat]

yea not the most impressive thing

Finally

Man i cant believe how badly i played for like 4 or so runs where i was on the literal last last phase of her

Worth it tho

Ok so now the ||quest||
Then uhhh
Probably||mist||

[unique lily]

did you beat her?

[feral bobcat]

Yeah

[unique lily]

huge

[feral bobcat]

Maybe

A bunch of my runs got really close but i would either get unfortunate grab patterns, or not see a la cr

Lance

Their color with the whole region is oddly hard to spot , not much contrast

[unique lily]

I missed out on the cursed ending unfortunately bc I am already in act 3

[unique lily]

yeah I felt that too sometimes

[feral bobcat]

Well im sure ull be making new save files

[unique lily]

oh yeah 100% lol

[feral bobcat]

I kinda want to get as much of the game done in a span of 2ish weeks since after I go back to campus for uni ill prob not manage to do much silking or songing

Im certain ill have time , but the focus to deal w a game like this? Unlikely
That and, my laptop is obviously way worse a gaming experience than the family pc

[austere wadi]

Lilac, where is this secret second bench? I think I've already lost close to 1000 rosaries in ||Bilewater|| and I'm ready to be closer-to-done with this place.

[feral bobcat]

Anyway playtime is now at 66 hours so thats wild

[white lotus]

Btw I have finally found the Spanish coded people. Not a boss yet, unless this guy counts as a boss

[feral bobcat]

Twisted child.apparently has a 1.9% om steam so thats wild

Tho with like 2-3 million players thats still what

A lot, according to my calculations

[feral bobcat]

People?

[white lotus]

Group of enemies

False

Single enemy

But not a boss

[feral bobcat]

I see

[white lotus]

I think it is obvious who I am talking about

Nah ok this gauntlet is nonsense

[feral bobcat]

Im betting its an area i havent explored uet

oh also thing to note about the ||twisted child|| win

i rebound loking up to rightclick

holding w constantly with a and d for left right, shift dash space jump was starting to bother me

idk if thats considered a cheat or whatever

[solar hound]

Hi I need to crowdsource some opinions

Jk I lied

[feral bobcat]

unbelievable

[elder ivy]

so I see that THIS is the wrost runback you guys were talking about 😭

[feral bobcat]

cant wait

[elder ivy]

[austere wadi]

I swear I've gone through that spot before. This area stinks.

[elder ivy]

ITS AWFUL

I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT

[austere wadi]

I bet in-universe it does smell absolutely terrible.

"Well, Miyazaki always put poison swamps in Souls games..."

[elder ivy]

In universe the ||bilewater is where the citadel disposes all their garbage into||

[austere wadi]

A Team Cherry member who was not vetoed when they sorely needed to be.

[elder ivy]

so it got infested and all kinds of awful things

[austere wadi]

Yeah, I got a bit of that vibe talking to Shakra and getting to the ||Exhaust Organ||.

[elder ivy]

yeah that area is crazy too....

[rustic falcon]

skong break - nobody move the drakengard soundtrack just suddenly dropped on steam
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3951070/Drakengard_Original_Soundtrack_Rerelease/

Steam

Drakengard Original Soundtrack Re-release

Released by SQUARE ENIX in 2003, Drakengard was a cult classic RPG that not only featured a gripping story but also radiated a sense of "madness" through its music, breaking the mold of conventional games.

The soundtrack that captivated countless fans has finally returned.

*This soundtrack compiles the tracks from DRAG-ON DRAGOON Original Sou…

Price

$15.19

[elder ivy]

NO SKONG BREAK!!!!

I must express my anger!!

😭 😭 😭

[austere wadi]

No, Drakengard and Yoko Taro have precedence.

[rustic falcon]

skong break. the game came out today 22 years ago!

happy drakengard 9/11 if youre not with it get with it 💁

[austere wadi]

AD NO.

[rustic falcon]

it literally did come out on this date

[austere wadi]

Oh, I thought you meant ||the fifth ending||.

Also it's still the 10th here, that may be throwing me.

[rustic falcon]

take it up with squeenix! or. i think it was just one then. square or enix

[austere wadi]

Square Enix, actually.

I think they merged in the late 90s or right around the millenium.

[rustic falcon]

ok listen these games suck so bad but i want them on steam or otherwise on pc officially so badly

[austere wadi]

I know they had already merged by 2001 and Final Fantasy X.

[rustic falcon]

ahh ok ok

[austere wadi]

I've heard that Drakengard 3 is actually a good action game.

[rustic falcon]

the 3 is for how much fps it runs at on ps3

[austere wadi]

[rustic falcon]

which is the only platform it released on

the humor is very crass and vulgar but honestly?? there are worse games out there, it happens to be very compelling under that entire thing

[austere wadi]

Yeah, I remember the days of the PS3 not holding up to the prestige and quality of the PS2.

[rustic falcon]

im really hoping for a remakester

[austere wadi]

Yeah, I praised its gameplay alone for a reason.

It is a little hard to really get emotionally invested in a story with a protag like that, though.

[rustic falcon]

i feel like the gameplay is almost there but is janky. the same with the story

[austere wadi]

I think working with Platinum Games on Automata and Replicant v1.22 helped a lot.

Honestly Drakengard could stand for a full-tilt remake.

[rustic falcon]

i think replicant was another company... toylogic something?

[austere wadi]

Oh, yes it was.

[rustic falcon]

but im so glad for like. all of it

[austere wadi]

"The combat redesign was supervised by Takahisa Taura of Platinum Games..."

From the Wikipedia article. But yes, spearheaded as a whole by Toylogic.

[rustic falcon]

and yeah i think drakengard 3 could stand the test of time with some polish. but not the first one.... its kind of scary because i think as a Popular Game On Steam it would be very controversial, unlike a cult hit distant relative of a popular game

which it is right now

i see i see

makes snense

[austere wadi]

I remember being fascinated by just how dark the storylines were as a kid.

But hoo boy, some of them probably just need to be excised if we were to try to bring back 1 today.

[rustic falcon]

yeah its not that its bad that it was made, its that cramming all of that into a game if it was made in modern day would not fly

[feral bobcat]

So ive done the disgraceful act of looking up locations of something for silksong
Out of the 4 locations for craftmetal, i rechecked 2 and i had gotten them
Of the 2 left, one is the shop in the first region of the game, bone bottom

I swear if i missed an item from the very first shop of the game..

And im pretty sure he's||dead|| now

Ravenswatch on sale y'all played that ?

[harsh verge]

||the clockwork dancers|| are making me really sad

||the fourth phase where hes completely incomplete without his partner||

||and the bows to nothing. and the floats to nothing||

[feral bobcat]

Muscle memory

[unique lily]

dude

this build

is genuinely ridiculous

like tell me why my HEAL is doing more damage than all of my spells and tools

straight up nuclear bomb

[feral bobcat]

||witch crest mirror|| ?

Idk how many red slots that crest has

If 2 id throw in either ||faster or double heal||

[austere wadi]

Actually kinda mean to witness.

[harsh verge]

this is really sad

this is actually really sad

||im so sad right now. they were in such harmony 😭 ||

[unique lily]

witch crest, double mirrors, pollip pouch, warding bell, and injector bands

[harsh verge]

the music gave it such a good vibe too

oughhh

also the achievement name

i need merch of these guys

i wish i knew how to do music boxes but i dont have any of the prerequisite skills lol

[feral bobcat]

I swear this cant be real

I searched all the crafting metal locations

None showed up

I still need two

Is this website wrong

[feral bobcat]

Double mirrors?

Also damn uve a ton of lockets to get those wow

[unique lily]

from ||Trobbio rematch||

[feral bobcat]

||did not know rematch existed cool||

[austere wadi]

It says a lot about my current emotional state that I barely reacted when ||Groal|| showed up.

I should be catatonic right now.

[feral bobcat]

Ok i hope my stupidity kicks on overnight so I forget the full map cuz i had to look up metal locations

Please brain forget all the spoiled regions please

[unique lily]

please tell me you have maggot immunity and the second bilewater bench 😭

[austere wadi]

Just ||the second bench||. Not sure where to go for ||immunity. Down instead of up towards the gauntlet?||

I keep dying on the runback, I don't know how much that's going to help me.

I'm going to flush Silksong because of this runback.

I'm in awe that Team Cherry said "Hey, remember poison swamps? What if we put the worst runback in the game in one?"

It also might be the most unfun gauntlet in the game, since enemies spend about 80% of their time hiding.

[unique lily]

Yeah its probably my least fav part of the game. you want some tips for it?

TIPS TO NOT LOSE YOUR SANITY IN BILEWATER:
||1. you should first go get the wreath of purity from the putrified ducts. Makes the entirely of bilewater like 10 times easier
2. try using architect's crest. The nail art on it can one shot all the gauntlet enemies and tool spam can help you kill the boss super fast
3. use the boomerang tool with pollip pouch. groal big hitbox lets the boomerang hit like 5 times. Along with that you can use cogflies/sting shards/triple daggers/bombs and other high damage tools to end the fight as fast and as safely as possible||

damn the new patch is reducing the damage of like all hazards to 1 mask. most notable ones are cogs in cogwork core and worms in blasted steps doing only 1 damage

W change honestly. I like the enemies and bosses doing 2 damage but the hazards doing double is just annoying

they also more than doubled the rosaries you gain from most relics damn

[elder ivy]

you gotta spoiler tag this Fraud!! 🙏

[elder ivy]

I agree yeah!

[unique lily]

idk I kinda want everyone to see it so other ppl don't have the painful bilewater experience I did

[elder ivy]

you can say at the top that it's tips for bilewater so if someone needs it they can click on it!

[unique lily]

done

yo this game lowk easy now that I have figured out how to make giga busted builds

there's some elden ring levels of goofy stuff possible

nuclear heal goes brrrr

[elder ivy]

THIS GAME IS SOOOO COOL.................... ahahhakjsdhakjdhsa

I'm doing so much cool stuff and Im still in act 2???

it's already such a crazy 10/10 experience what do you mean it gets even better 😭

I just did the ||first sinner bossfight!!!!! ABSOLUTE CINEMA!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!||

[elder ivy]

||witch crest + mutlibind + trobbio's mirror + some other stuff from act 3 I dont know about?? 👀||

[unique lily]

||pollip pouch also works with trobbio's mirror(there's an act 3 thing that does even more damage than it) and I dont use multibind but instead I use injector bands + warding bell to make sure my heal almost never gets interrupted even if I use it in the most risky spot. Multibind unfortunately doesn't work bc if it did witch crest would be the most OP thing ever. with all this combined my heal literally does more damage than my spells 😭 its perfect bc I dont need to worry about saving my silk for healing or using it to do damage bc I can do both at once lol||

[elder ivy]

that sounds pretty crazy wow!!

[unique lily]

yeah I honestly can't wait for the pantheons to mess around with more stuff like this

This game has so much build variety and potential compared to the original its crazy. Build making is like my favorite thing in games lol

that's why I love elden ring so much

[elder ivy]

I love how the build variety is much bigger than in the original yeah!

[unique lily]

and hades 2 ofc

[elder ivy]

I feel so bad because wow silksong really did overshadow the hell out of hades 2 for me 😭

[unique lily]

same 😭

[elder ivy]

like hades 2 is amazing... but yeah it doesnt stand nowhere near as close as Silksong...........

[unique lily]

I almost want to get burn out on skong so I can be hyped for 1.0 again

[elder ivy]

hahahaha

also I must confess ||the wanderer|| is indeed some of the most crazy damage I've seen, you're right 😔

I still like the ||reaper|| more but it is a lot slower for sure

[unique lily]

ahh it feels so good to see so many people finally realize the potential of the thing I was glazing since day 1

[elder ivy]

I got a charm that makes the ||Range on attacks longer.... so it makes the wanderer a lot more tolerable for me too||

[unique lily]

though witch crest is my new best friend now

[elder ivy]

oh wow haha

[unique lily]

since ppl are now realizing how good wanderer is, I must switch sides and become the witch merchant now

maybe one day I'll be fighting for the beast crest lmao

[elder ivy]

hahahaha

[unique lily]

she's my second fav fight too

[elder ivy]

I love how her moveset meaningfully ||builds up on the widow's moveset!!! even the death fakeout lmaoo||

[unique lily]

and I also love how aggressive you have to be in the fight bc of ||her bind ability||

[elder ivy]

I loved the entirety of ||the slab so much too tbh!! the huge build up with finding all the keys and making your to the very first sinner..... imprisoned for many many decades probably..||

[unique lily]

it made for such a fantastic flow

[elder ivy]

YES!!!! that was such a cool touch!!!! like yes ||she's a weaver of course she can do the healing stuff too!!!!||

I love team cherry so much.... the attention to detail!!!!

it's so impressive!!

[unique lily]

same but unfortunately I missed the coolest part about the slab where you get kidnapped 💔

[elder ivy]

same!!!

I was too good at the game and killed those guys 😔

[unique lily]

I was too good at the game

LOL

[elder ivy]

LMAO

twinsssss

literally the same phrase 😭

[unique lily]

twins

[elder ivy]

I do envy some of those people though because that must have been such a cool sequence!

I binged sooo much of silksong today because I was so sure i was close to act 3 but apparently not!!! god damn it the act 2 is sooo massive too

[unique lily]

yeah apparently there's a bit of hornet's HK leitmotif somewhere there which sounds so dope to me

[elder ivy]

it's uhh... more massive than the massive moss charger!!

[unique lily]

https://tenor.com/view/ninja-fortnite-reaction-ninja-low-taper-fade-gif-1784137995500051652

you know what else is massive?

[elder ivy]

👀

uhhh

[unique lily]

LOWWW TAPEEER FADEEEE

(I'm sorry)

[elder ivy]

wait ... I dont get it 😔

[unique lily]

dw it's a last year meme anyway 💔 😔

[elder ivy]

google says it's a haircut..

[unique lily]

uhh I guess look up lessons in meme culture and low taper fade ninja on yt

god I feel so brainrotted rn 😭

[elder ivy]

I think I'd rather eat grass!!

[unique lily]

honestly real

[elder ivy]

anyways tomorrow I'll actually beat the stupid Bilewater bossfight

[unique lily]

the forg man

[elder ivy]

that charm seems nice but I hate how ||it breaks after a bit||

||especially considering that you HAVE to dip your toes in the maggot water on your run back||

that run back is so brutal 😭

[unique lily]

it's still better than nothing lol

[elder ivy]

I suppose that's true...

I won't look gifted horse in the mouth!!

[unique lily]

but yeah I do hope they add a closer bench in bilewater in a future patch

[elder ivy]

The ||cheff bossfight|| was also so stupidly annoying 😭

[unique lily]

THE CHEEKS

[elder ivy]

At least I was able to get the pale oil finally!!

[elder ivy]

that move was the worst!

it reminded me of that among us gif.....

😭

you get the idea...

[unique lily]

I'm ngl I was laughing my ass off the whole fight

[elder ivy]

meanwhile I was so stressed out...

[unique lily]

there was one time where he just up and left the arena and I got softlocked lmao

it was so funny bc I was just in the arena alone with the intense music playing

[elder ivy]

SAME

it happened to me too

I had to quit

most likely a bug....

[unique lily]

oh wow really? You're the only other person I know who this happened too. Thank god bc ppl were calling me crazy

[elder ivy]

oh haha

we're both crazy perhaps!

[unique lily]

that's also a possibility

[elder ivy]

also wow the game feels like 20 times better when you get the ||double jump||

I am so much less tense now when platforming..

||I cant believe I did the sands of karak and cogworks thinking that I didnt have access to it yet 😭||

[unique lily]

yeah double jump made platformin in most areas so comfy

[unique lily]

YOU DID THOSE WITHOUT DOUBLE JUMP???

HOLY GAMER

[elder ivy]

YES

THATS WHY I TOLD YOU I HATED THEM!!!

THATS WHY I WAS STUCK THERE FOR 2 HOURS

[unique lily]

that's insane wth

[elder ivy]

😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

OMG

THANK YOU

I WAS GOING CRAZY you telling me that it was so easy for you

I was like ?????????????

[unique lily]

I can't even imagine lol

[elder ivy]

😭 😭 😭

they were doable without it so I thought it's impossible to have that ability at that point in the game!!!

so I bruteforced my way through it

omg so it WAS equivavelnt to the path of pain FOR ME hahahahah

[unique lily]

ahh yes gamers going through the most torturous experience of their lives just bc something is "doable"

[elder ivy]

I thought it was the intended way 😭

[unique lily]

I'd imagine so yeah

[elder ivy]

i thought that if i could have the double jump team cherry wouldn't let me do this..

I TRUSTED TEAM CHERRY wouldnt do this to me

I trusted it was the intended exprience

🥀

[unique lily]

I trusted them until I sat on that one bench in bilewater

[elder ivy]

lmaoooo 😭

THAT BENCH

||I thought the sinner's road bench not working and the hunter's march bench was all of it||

😭

[unique lily]

I was like "nah bro satan worked on this game"

[elder ivy]

Lmaoooo

it was soo evil!!

there are honeslty so many evil areas in this game..

[unique lily]

I have never been pranked this hard by any non fromsoftware game lol

[elder ivy]

I can't believe I did the coral area pre-patch too... it would be so much easier if those worms didnt do 2 masks of damage too..........

[elder ivy]

same haha, I didnt expect that AT ALL

[unique lily]

the cogs in cogwork also do 1 damage on the new patch!

[elder ivy]

omg that too 😭

doing that stupid puzzle at the end of cogworks would be so much less tedious with a double jump too

[unique lily]

you basically beat those areas in ultra masochist mode lol

[elder ivy]

apparently....................................................

I cant believe it.......

they took me HOURS

and meanwhile everyone else was talking about how EASY they are 😭

I was going crazy!!!!!

[unique lily]

remember the time you turned down the hint I was giving you for double jump?

[elder ivy]

I thought I must be sooo bad at this game

😭

[unique lily]

little did you know you were actually cracked

[elder ivy]

🥹

thank you fraud

anyways wow.....

this game is crazy..

it brings out the worst and best in me hahaha

[unique lily]

what am I even gonna do when it's over? 😭

Echoes of the Eye that's what!

[elder ivy]

!!!!

Echoes of the Eye is the Shadow of the Erdtree of Outer wilds

🔥

[unique lily]

man I'm so hyped for it. you're giving me some crazy expectations

[elder ivy]

I knooowww

it's genuinely amazing

this is pissing distance

[white lotus]

||delicate flower|| all over again

[white lotus]

Yep

Technical terminology

[light widget]

it gets worse, i got lost under the room where you have to deliver it and had like 0,2 sec left 💀

[feral bobcat]

no the enemies are so easy but the goddamn spikes and traps everywhere man

[white lotus]

Oh god

[white lotus]

Oh are they? Then maybe I should just go for it instead of bothering to clean the way

[feral bobcat]

shellwood is a joke
blsted steps can be speedran so quickly if u know where to double jump harpoon

grand gate has no enemies

but then i eat spike damage in citadel like a moron

or even worse, i fall into the bugs in blasted steps

HITTING WATER BREAKS THE APCKAGE??????

[white lotus]

Ofc, it's delicate and needs care

[light widget]

would you want a soggy amazon package

[white lotus]

Imagine a soggy package with meat inside. I wouldn't eat it

[feral bobcat]

I HATE THESE SPIKES

FK

AGAIN MAN

[white lotus]

https://tenor.com/view/2d-platformer-super-meat-boy-masocore-precision-platformer-gif-23595410

[white lotus]

Btw this whole world was easy

I think I even got the hitless achievements

Ofc it is the first world

[feral bobcat]

i will kill a man if i get hit by another spike or lose a package point from running into a wall

[white lotus]

I would like to advise you to take a break.

As a friend

[feral bobcat]

its only 4th or so try

and its easy

i just dash into this one annoyign sawblade

[white lotus]

I need you to understand it comes from a place of love

[feral bobcat]

i can do blasted steps no problem then i get hit by a stationary saw

[echo hazel]

the actual name is different but since almost every ability in the game has silk in its name, they become a little confusing

so the community silently and collectively agreed to call it ||harpoon||

[feral bobcat]

its harpoon in the keybind menu

[echo hazel]

yeah courier's rash is pretty easy
it's the ||one you have to take to mask maker|| that's absolute hell 💀

[echo hazel]

oh that's interesting

also why no default control setup 😭

[feral bobcat]

the fkin what

[echo hazel]

oh you sweet innocent child 🥲

[white lotus]

Oh god...

[echo hazel]

do you even have the package available at the ||courier bros||?

[white lotus]

I did the most easy ones for now
||Bone bottom|| and ||sinner's road||

[white lotus]

Not yet I am already scared for the ||songclave||

[echo hazel]

ah i didn't do the ||songclave|| one

[white lotus]

Lol

[echo hazel]

the path is really long bruh

i can do it, it just sounds tedious

[white lotus]

I will try couriers tomorrow evening. Right after I deal with the ||cook||

[white lotus]

Always

At least there's no timer

[echo hazel]

as you can see, the rash is easy

i think i got hit once during this too

[white lotus]

Wow

[feral bobcat]

its easy but i hate hazards

also no cogfly or brew is crazy

[white lotus]

Did you clean the way first?

[echo hazel]

nope, rested on every bench on the way too

[white lotus]

Oh!

Why though?

[echo hazel]

I don't like the brew because just like frenzy2 in hades 2, it may throw off my timings

[white lotus]

True

[echo hazel]

especially because a lot of boss movements are easier to dodge with just simple movement

and keeping your dash for the big attacks

[feral bobcat]

i like it for the long corridors withnothing in em

that conenct rooms

or stuff liek grand

[echo hazel]

to recraft all my throwable blades

[white lotus]

Oh!

Makes sense

Instead of using ||architect|| like a real man

[echo hazel]

I'm a hunter otp

[white lotus]

You can also add running shoes tbh

[echo hazel]

oh btw this was done with the tool that ||makes you run faster||

it saves a TON of time in ||shellwood|| and ||citadel||

[white lotus]

So there are 3 booster? I. Scared of the speed you ca reach. I am missing an ingredient for the ||fly||

[echo hazel]

i only know the running shoes and the brew

i only use the running shoes occasionally because it only affects running speed not your usual walking

[white lotus]

Oh, he mentioned the ||fly|| so I assumed it gives you speed somehow

[white lotus]

For the zoomies

[echo hazel]

especially now that i have ||all three silkhearts|| the running shoes are basically free

[white lotus]

Amazing

If you also add the free ||generation of silk||

[feral bobcat]

My game crashed as i reached citadel

[light widget]

https://tenor.com/view/dance-coffin-meme-rip-gif-16909625

[feral bobcat]

Please tell me it loads me at my bench

A ||mosquito||

[feral bobcat]

where are those

[white lotus]

Shellwood. The ones on the water.
That's the joke

[feral bobcat]

oh

you cheeky bastard

matter of fact i forgot but probably some hazard

so i read the patch notes

apparently theyre removing the ability to override double jump, and go straight to hover by pressing down jump?

didnt even knwo that existed but was hoping it did, thoughts on the change?

i think its a good thing to have available

[light widget]

Im the || flea champion 💪🏻 ||

[feral bobcat]

dont wanna knwow aht that is ti ll ig et there but , goated

ayo i found a ||bilewater|| bench yall were strugglging with this?

or is it a second bench thats the issue?

SHAKRAAAAA

[white lotus]

I hate that I cannot override the double jump s I hate that this is being patched

[white lotus]

Exiting to the left and above from the bench without getting infected is not trivial but requires practice

[echo hazel]

i didn't even know you could do that

[echo hazel]

which crest did you use for ||flea bounce||

[white lotus]

I did try to look at the controls to see if I could just add a button because it was so wonky to have a double jump after I grew accustomed to float

[light widget]

||i did everything with wanderer + long needle||

[white lotus]

Btw it's so funny how in SS not even once I felt the feeling of being lost and not knowing where to go as opposed to HK.
It is truly a different experience

[echo hazel]

of course 🙄

[light widget]

should i be offended

[echo hazel]

do it all again with hunter's 😠

[white lotus]

Imagine the achievement "never use a bench"

[feral bobcat]

is that the issue?

[light widget]

depends on which bench you found 💀

[white lotus]

What bench are you talking about exactly?

[light widget]

@echo hazel how would one get ||back up to the cradle again if every "old" way is caved in 🤔 ||

[feral bobcat]

near bellway

[feral bobcat]

^

[echo hazel]

it's an act 3 movement ability

[light widget]

ye thats not the hard one 🤣

[feral bobcat]

ok understandable

[light widget]

💀 i forgot abouit that one again 🤣 im stoopido

[white lotus]

Lol

Then where is the second one?

[feral bobcat]

not yet seen

[white lotus]

You told you found a second one we were struggling with

[feral bobcat]

i didnt

i aske dif theres a second one

[white lotus]

Oh I misread sorry

[feral bobcat]

understandable

i asked becuz it was so easy

[white lotus]

I should have tagged this message with my answer or probably read it better 😔

[white lotus]

Nah ofc. I am very happy if the obligatory bellway bench

Team cherry didn't have to do it, but they gave us free benches

And people still complained

Tsk

[feral bobcat]

8th health point yayyy

[white lotus]

It's such a pleasure

[feral bobcat]

spent so logn tring to kill those bugs tho

only to find out they dont die

lmao

||DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF TOOLS THROWN||???
W

WAIT WHAT

||ARCHITECT ||BUILD GONNA GO CRAZY

HOW HAVE YALL NOT MENTIONED THIS YET

lmao game trynna be cheeky with all these spikeballs

[light widget]

@echo hazel did you find a good ||act 3 rosary farming spot?||

[hearty yarrow]

||Do the guys at the hallway in citadel become unavailable||

||cause they drop 55 a piece with the thief's tool||

||idk anything about act 3||

[light widget]

|| not unavailable but less effective ||

[hearty yarrow]

||do they drop less?||

||obv you cant spoil but if you can still make em drop 55 who cares lol||

[light widget]

it goes from || 275 in that hallway to 110||

[hearty yarrow]

||I have emptied all vendors act 2 lol||

[hearty yarrow]

||so are there just two left||

||are they near eachother or no||

||cause idk I'd farm em regardless 55 is good drops just gotta quit out more maybe||

[elder ivy]

So many grey boxes 😰

Feels like playing mine sweeper hahaha

[elder ivy]

Noooo I almost made it to act 3, I'm so close

[feral bobcat]

i wish i could disable the cogflies so i cana ctually hit enemies to get silk

[feral bobcat]

HUH

[elder ivy]

Well maybe im not actually close.. But I've done sooo many things in act 2 atp 😭

[feral bobcat]

WAIT THEY CAN BE KILLED

[elder ivy]

Have you done the bossfight in ||the slab||, called ||the first sinner||?

[feral bobcat]

idont have the 3rd key

im in ||bilewater||

[elder ivy]

Ah ok ok

[elder ivy]

That's my next destination too...

I delayed it and did everything else first hahaha

[elder ivy]

Yeah it's an unfortunate side effect of tools that you end up getting no silk..

https://tenor.com/view/hurt-dog-sad-ouch-offended-gif-9658871699437611127

can i just say tho

if ure careful and smart, ||bile|| is actually fun and not too bad

enemies respawn when u reenter rooms so u can spam silk on them to get heals or get rid of the status effect

[white lotus]

That is true but dreadful

[white lotus]

Yep. Exiting from above without problems requires some training but it is possible

[hearty yarrow]

Yes

[light widget]

didnt know silksong was a critic about economy and the environment

[hearty yarrow]

||Clawline + double jump makes it easy||

[hearty yarrow]

||besides the criticisms of religion you mean ||

[white lotus]

Nah it's crazy

[white lotus]

Easy is a strong word

[feral bobcat]

i do like training

weight lifting for instance

[hearty yarrow]

||idk I struggled with it zero but maybe I'm built different (I'm not)||

||mostly a matter of timing the clawline||

||cause you can just spam the double jump button after||

[feral bobcat]

i find the perma grip helpful too

[elder ivy]

critique*

But yes it is apparently!

[elder ivy]

I never take it off, it's great!

[feral bobcat]

ok i just cleared the gap first try how is this hard

[hearty yarrow]

I've never used it lol

Perma grip I just do by short jumping on walls

Or by dashing into walls which climbs anyway

Idk why I'd need more grip

[feral bobcat]

depending on crest i do

or if im farming

[elder ivy]

Unnecessary tedium and stress imo, you should try this charm, you'll see how great it is

[hearty yarrow]

I use faster run tho

Eh it is no tedium or stress for me

[elder ivy]

I don't like it because it consumes your silk.....

[hearty yarrow]

Ye but I generate silk fast

I also have like

More than two heals worth of a silk bar

Lol

Like why should I care

[elder ivy]

Guess it's a good charm for us plebs then who are not as good at platforming 😔

[feral bobcat]

the silk consumption is nearly unnoticeble

[hearty yarrow]

^

Especially if you use the faster gen tool

Which kinda doesnt matter tbf

[feral bobcat]

the perma cling is cool for platforming regions but id forsake it for rosary magnet, tmore rosaries, more shards

[hearty yarrow]

But it could help

Ye that setup is good for farm

[light widget]

lol no it just makes it easier lmao, i dont wanna time jump my wall to the spinning sawblade that resets me to -30 to the start cause thats where the last platform was 💀

[hearty yarrow]

I use fast run and mostly anything combat from there

[elder ivy]

Rosary magnet 🙏

[feral bobcat]

also COMPASS

[hearty yarrow]

I have dice tool in ||vesticrest|| tho

Compass for now ye

[elder ivy]

Well apparently tranurz is just that god of a gamer!!!!

[hearty yarrow]

I'm not

Path of pain took me a decently long time lol

[feral bobcat]

no its dependant on the area thats all

[elder ivy]

I've never used compass haha, I like to get lost

[hearty yarrow]

If this game has an equiv imma die

[light widget]

but you are the 10 min god herself !

[feral bobcat]

cling platform, otherwise go for utility

like its not about being a god ifu dont use it

[hearty yarrow]

I do vibe with the platforming here tho

[feral bobcat]

its just some situations dont need it

[elder ivy]

I will mourder you

[feral bobcat]

so humble too!

[feral bobcat]

never did that lmao

[elder ivy]

[hearty yarrow]

I'm only a god gamer in a single level of a single game

[light widget]

https://tenor.com/view/were-all-gonna-die-end-of-the-world-elmo-sesame-street-shrug-gif-16568695

[hearty yarrow]

Cause I have one (1) world record in a game that might stand for a while

[elder ivy]

Lmaoo fair

[hearty yarrow]

Maybe

If nobody runs the tas

If they do tas route im beaten there too lol

[white lotus]

It Is very doable, but when it matters I cannot do it. I need Celeste golden berries training

[feral bobcat]

first try

[white lotus]

Epic

[hearty yarrow]

Tbf if ||you hit the bilewater just go hit some random enemy to heal it off||

[feral bobcat]

gamer

whats tas

[hearty yarrow]

Tool assisted speedrun

[feral bobcat]

exactly

leave the room, respawn enemies, heal up

bile is quite chill

[elder ivy]

That's so tedious though.....

[hearty yarrow]

Using all kinds of tools of manipulation or exact frame by frame inputs to execute near perfect runs or ideas for routes (or to showcase glitches) in speed games

[white lotus]

Btw the point of SS being a critique on capitalism and imperialism kinda loses strength if the patches reduce the price gauging of the benches

[elder ivy]

You're right!!!!

[feral bobcat]

also lilac sinc eu mentioned the silk on the anklets
think of it like the needolin
if u stop soon, it doesnt consume any silk

[feral bobcat]

black friday

[hearty yarrow]

For i am your beast (where I have a record) tool assisted is largely just playing the game very slowed down to execute perfect shots and tricks to do insane routes that are probably humanly impossible

[elder ivy]

Ohhhh

[light widget]

well my point was more the environment which will be obv in act 3

[feral bobcat]

like macros?

[hearty yarrow]

Doing TAS routes then means the route a TAS has shown being executed by an actual human being

[elder ivy]

Like a pre programmed ai doing it for you, I think

[hearty yarrow]

Can be ye, sometimes it's literally telling the game inputs per frame

It all differs per game and what tools are available to mess with it

[feral bobcat]

interesting

[white lotus]

I will see that but I did see some things about the ||memorarium|| or however it is spelled

[feral bobcat]

i wonder if such games have APIs

[hearty yarrow]

Hollow knight TAS is essentially frame by frame inputs

[light widget]

thats || act 2 ||

[feral bobcat]

||its act 2 no?||

[hearty yarrow]

It does insane stuff like turning around at every little bump to hit the bump and bounce backwards like 3 frames to save .00003 lol

[feral bobcat]

id imagine a tas hk would rely on the death shade to pogo and reach unreachable areas

[hearty yarrow]

https://youtu.be/patXzF3Q3Wk?si=Z5iHfY_701qcJG29

[feral bobcat]

like the speedruns already do

[hearty yarrow]

Ye

[feral bobcat]

i saw a grasshopper any% speedrun

[hearty yarrow]

And on wallcling storage

But done perfect

It is allowed in no major glitches already

[white lotus]

Yep... Have you seen p5 tas bullying?

[hearty yarrow]

But humans can't do those perfect

Ye

[feral bobcat]

intriguing

[white lotus]

Yes yes

[hearty yarrow]

Have you seen tas no geo with magnet

[feral bobcat]

kinda sounds more like a programming challenge

[hearty yarrow]

That one's very funny

It is but it's also a showcase

Of what a potentiall perfect run looks like

[feral bobcat]

yea for sure

[hearty yarrow]

Like you can also tas and only do humanly possible tricks

And show what a WR with it is

Cause you just include rng manip to make enemies do exactly the right patterns etc.

It kinda depends on the goal of the tas

Is it to glitch the game, or show a perfect (in)human run, or do some wonky category to showcase tricks and skips

[feral bobcat]

i wonder what the hades 2 surface speedrun would looklike with tas
i saw Foolish post a modded version where he got the perfect medea pre-set build and shaved 1 min off the wr

yea kinda stresstesting the game in a way

interesting concept didnt know about it

[hearty yarrow]

Ye I think hades tas equiv is just kinda seeded/routed stuff

[white lotus]

That is insane and pure comedy gold

[hearty yarrow]

A runner actually did it too btw

[white lotus]

It basically is, but it's still human input

[hearty yarrow]

https://youtu.be/IAt16S_Imf4?si=QPVGgk2tFx9tvlRF

[hearty yarrow]

It also just entirely depends on the goals of the tas

[feral bobcat]

OOH I HAD THAT RECOMMENED ON YTB

didnt watch it but still

[hearty yarrow]

Ye I'd stay away from hk content rn cause you're just gonna end up getting silksong recommends lol

And getting mega spoiled prob

[feral bobcat]

yo why these ||bilewater|| lore drops gotta be so edgy

||fil your heart with hate||

evanescence sounding ahh

[feral bobcat]

i already do

i just died to ||groal|| from contact

i should retire

[hearty yarrow]

||groal is the longest runback I think||

[feral bobcat]

eh

[hearty yarrow]

||Only one I kinda sorta minded||

[feral bobcat]

so this may sound stupid but why does my silk meter not go beyond the limit even tho i have the extension?

[elder ivy]

sounds like a bug to me

[feral bobcat]

is it crest dependent?

or some chamrs disable it>

[feral bobcat]

reaper + cogfly + the boomerang + pollip pouch

one of my blues was even useless cuz the silk regen is apparently the innate regen, not the one from nail hits

like just spam the tools at the enemies

so is there antyhign more to ||bile||

i have something in the lower region , rightside of the bench

so far region is pretty fun

YO THE ||BARNAK|| GETS TANKED BY COGFLIES

idk if they need pollip or not tho

but theres this item

INSANE if it works like i believe it does

actuall;y INSANE

i cant believe noone talked about it yet

[unique lily]

I've been spamming cogflies and tacks with pollip on half the stuff in act 3 and the game's lowkey easy now

im so glad im back to actually playing the gmae and not just folowing online nstructions

HAHAHHAHAHA

THIS IS PEAK

gay clankas

also i negdiffed ||savage beastfly 2|| in like 20 minutes

get smoked

[hearty yarrow]

||fire tools, drill tools, spear tools iirc||

HOLY GAMER

[feral bobcat]

[feral bobcat]

only tools or ||architect drill|| aswell

[harsh verge]

||traps and silkstorm|| are really good against the adds

[feral bobcat]

does the ||Delvers drill|| finally become useful

[harsh verge]

if they survive for more than 2s youre kinda cooked though

[hearty yarrow]

It's a pretty silly fight but not that hard

[harsh verge]

id say its harder than the original bc it goes offscreen

[hearty yarrow]

No idea I used ||conchfly|| tool, ||delver|| should work tho

[hearty yarrow]

Ye I insta remove adds from bossfights or see them as silk dispensers lol

[harsh verge]

this is how it feels to get your last booster shot for a once-in-a-lifetime vaccine

im so glad ill never have to see it again

unless...

godhome...

[feral bobcat]

imma be that one guy to say
||savage beastfly 2|| would be easier than first if the adds werent so bad

[unique lily]

I fought that boss back when my brain was in unga bunga nail only mode. In hindsight some cogfly gaming would make that boss free asf

[hearty yarrow]

Adds got oneshot by ||storm|| tbh

[harsh verge]

they do but only barely yeah

i did it with ||the harpoon and traps|| to catch any left on 1hp

[hearty yarrow]

If not just one nail hit

[harsh verge]

hard to get nailhits in in the fight bc you wanna be targeting the boss imo

but youre right

[unique lily]

man I wish I used cogflies for beastfly 2 it would have been so easy

[harsh verge]

i dont have that one yet </3

[hearty yarrow]

Target the boss with ||storm|| too

[harsh verge]

you can hit the boss with it during the spawn anim

[light widget]

i did and it didnt help 💀

[harsh verge]

easy damage

jump up with it and hit the key right before it roars

[hearty yarrow]

Some bossfights have just been me throwing all tools at the boss at once

[harsh verge]

no literally

i did nail only for the ||dancers|| tho

also i need to farm rosaries again im broke

[unique lily]

you're lying cogflies would never let me down surely

[hearty yarrow]

Farm more than you think you need lol

[light widget]

well if you need them to get the adds, but they go for the big guy, they sure do

[harsh verge]

i always got that rosary necklace on me and you know it

50 rosary anti homeless architecture

[unique lily]

its insane how much of a surplus of rosaries you have in act 3. I keep using it on shard bundles bc I have nothing else to spend it on and I have like 30 of them by now lol

act 3 got me rich

[harsh verge]

...theres an act 3?

oh dear

[unique lily]

it's the best one lol

[light widget]

did you farm anywhere or just exploring

[harsh verge]

i got like 1.4k rosaries just by doing the runbacks to the ||dancers|| lol

those bugs drop so much

and they get cooked if you use ||spear||

[unique lily]

mostly just exploring and killing stuff on the way since ||my farming spot is now dead||

[harsh verge]

EXCEPT FOR THE KLANSMAN

i hate that guy

[unique lily]

lol I love how the community has collectively agreed on those guys as the best farming spot

[elder ivy]

Wait @unique lily you said the patches were already out, but I dont see any updates on Steam?

[harsh verge]

they didnt give you the patches specifically

[feral bobcat]

wait i killed so many guys with tools and no organs dropped

is it tool specific

im using what would sound like it should work

[unique lily]

the beta for the patches is out which is the one speedrunners are using. Patches will be out in the next few days

[elder ivy]

ohhh okay okay

[harsh verge]

[elder ivy]

uhh ||30||

[harsh verge]

maths..

[elder ivy]

i mean just double the number you see on that achievement 😭

[unique lily]

leto cant count 😔

[harsh verge]

the woke left wants you to learn math

dont let them

[light widget]

10 min god lilac struck again 🙏🏻

[elder ivy]

😭

[feral bobcat]

boomerang for shredded
flint for seared

[harsh verge]

oh my god did you guys know that hollow knight is unrecommended by the woke contect detector

[elder ivy]

WHAT, that took only like 10 seconds!!!

[harsh verge]

sorry sorry i digress

[feral bobcat]

i dont have shards for cogfly or the shuriken

[light widget]

so humble 🙏🏻

[unique lily]

make sure you're not killing robots, those don't drop organs

[elder ivy]

[feral bobcat]

im killing the belchers in ||bilewater||

bloatroach

[light widget]

well || do you have the tool to make organs drop 💀 ?||

[unique lily]

bro there's a billion easier enemies 😭

[elder ivy]

the 2 guys right next to the ||Citadel bellway station|| are pretty good because you get a decent amount of rosaries too!

[feral bobcat]

i just said what tools i use

[feral bobcat]

its the closest ones

[harsh verge]

yea but theyre more annoying to fight </3

[unique lily]

I used those guys too yeah

[elder ivy]

not really lol

[elder ivy]

not at all!!! with the tools you can kill them so quickly!

[harsh verge]

||the charge attack that can only be stopped by a parry|| makes me tweak

oh true

i never have enough shards

[light widget]

you need an || extra charm to make the organs drop tho 💀 ||

[elder ivy]

same 😔

I hate farming for shards

[feral bobcat]

citadel bellway?

[elder ivy]

the bell beast station

[harsh verge]

tbh you can just buy shard packs from ||bellhart||

theyre like 50 rosaries a piece

[unique lily]

I have 30 shard bundles 🙃

[harsh verge]

takes less time to farm the rosaries than to farm the shards

[feral bobcat]

wha

[elder ivy]

?? misinfo!!!

[feral bobcat]

which i dont see one

[elder ivy]

you... never found a bell beast station in the citdael???? there is only one!

😭

[light widget]

? really cause they didnt drop for me until i bought || the charm from the red little thief 💀 ||

[feral bobcat]

its in grand bellway not citadel

[elder ivy]

yes you're imagining it!!!

[unique lily]

grand bellway IS citadel dumbass

[elder ivy]

you dont need that charm lmaooo

[feral bobcat]

i use the names on the map ok

[hearty yarrow]

Nothing like this is needed

Venom does prevent fire damage on tools tho

Which may impact

[elder ivy]

the way you said it I imagined that angry susie sprite lmaoooo 😭

[feral bobcat]

do the voltvessels count as fire damage

[unique lily]

I still remember you calling the forum the "forge" and I was like tf is this guy on about

[feral bobcat]

also whats wrong with the belch roaches theyre cute puppies

[feral bobcat]

i had a pin on top of the name so i completed it in my mind with what sounded most logical

so it was like

" the for "

[elder ivy]

[unique lily]

ahh yes I too like my puppies being able to vomit corrosive bile

[feral bobcat]

theyre cute and stand in place

and the paltforming around them makes hiding then dashing in for a pogo joyride so easy

[unique lily]

cuteness is subjective I suppose 😔

[elder ivy]

😔

[feral bobcat]

i may be an anomaly since i enjoy ||bilewater||

why does stilkin say shaw tho

what a poser

[elder ivy]

Wait in my conspiracy board I wrote down a name "Loddie" early into the game of some NPC and I compeltely forgot who that is 💀

does anyone remember Loddie???

like in the Marrow or something

[harsh verge]

friend said beastfly was cute

[feral bobcat]

i googled him

yea i remember him

[elder ivy]

oh okay...

[harsh verge]

i almost crashed out i fear

[elder ivy]

so I'm not crazy...

[feral bobcat]

i only did his first challenge tho

[elder ivy]

oh is it the ||knife throwing mini game??||

[unique lily]

I do agree that bile water platforming is really fun if you have maggot immunity

[feral bobcat]

||WEAVENEST MA-SOMETHING||??? THERES MORE REGIONS THAN I THOUGHT

[feral bobcat]

i dont have it

[feral bobcat]

ye

[elder ivy]

the first challenge is the only one that matters, all the consecutive ones are just for farming rosaries

[feral bobcat]

ye

[unique lily]

oh wow

[feral bobcat]

i just died to contacting a bug 3 times

[unique lily]

it happens to me irl too

[elder ivy]

contact damage is the one thing I really wish Team Cherry would fix 😔

[feral bobcat]

god gamers

[elder ivy]

I hate taking contact damage irl!
it's really hard to pogo on other people though

[feral bobcat]

[elder ivy]

Have you tried a combination of ||the wanderer crest + the flea brew||, I feel like this could be some crazy damage too 👀

[unique lily]

I have and its good but requires a lot of fast mashing which I find uncomfortable
