Why is Lace so cute?
i feel like less of a man for using reaper
>High Halls GauntletI've only heard stories. Now I understand.Fuck.
Is this a one time thing, if I go in the maggot water will it break?
>>720842371it wont, you can soak for several seconds before it breaks. there is a visual cue at your status bar.
>>720842371Lets you swim in the maggot water for a good long while until it breaks.
>>720842245Will Lace be upset I killed Phantom?
>>720842371just test it urself nigga
>>720842345only boss i cheesed along with frog
>>720842345I saved all my tools until the last two big retards and then threw down a ton of poison tacks
>>720842519redditgold + award for very helpful post
Imagining Lugoli bouncing on it
>>720842245Why does she keep laughing? Is she the jonkler? is she stupid?
Hollow Knight is better.
>>720842245She's a fat ass brat in dire need for correction
I have become one with the Bilewater. No more frustration, no more boiling blood. The maggots, the acid beasts, the blowdart ambush bugs, the gauntlet, Groal the Great - I am at peace with all of it. I have taken what was once my weakness, embraced it, and made it part of my being.You will find me in the putrid swamps pulling you into the water, in the shrubs waiting to pop out and interrupt your jump, in the very earth that shudders and breaks below you as you sit on the bench. I am one with the Bilewater, and our hatred of outsiders (and the Citadel) is neverending.
I would love for one of you fanboys to explain how hiding a WHOLE FUCKING AREA behind that curtain that has no indication whatsoever is good game design
>>720842371Why is that description so sexual?
>>720842320it's one of the slowest crests. if you daily drive it, you are a real man.
>>720842626grandmother silk had full control over how her daughter would look, and she chose that
How to I fight Shakra? Do I need to have the flea caravan move first from greymoor?
Has laces huge ass made you hard? During the act 3 when hornet looked over at lace lying there and all you see is a massive fucking ass i got slightly hard from it
>>720842697She's a woman of culture
>>720842081Finish a generic courier delivery, it's the courier's swag
>>720842345literally beat it my first try without even knowing what it was, also hunter crest. i had no idea /v/ were a bunch of reddit shitters
>>720842673>muh slowestit's not devil may cry, you don't get to wail on enemies until you're blue in the face. reaper is easy mode or alternatively retard mode.
>>720842245>that whole act 3 being all about LaceSorry Ari and Wililam but I... just don't give a shit about her, mate! And I don't see why I should. I care about Sherma or Shakra or Garmond & Zaza.
>>720842549>>720842345the conch for me, just spammed conch against both big guys and they went down in seconds
Any other games where Alt-F4ing is an actual mechanic?
Beat Act 2 normal ending.This game doesn't respect your time. TC is trying their hardest to limit player's powerlevel. HK > SSTime to play better metroidvania like Nine Sols™ Tevi™.
>>720842645its a metroidvania, you need to hit every wall, bash head first into it and finally a shallow jump dash, before moving on.
every time i reach something you guys have been complaining about its simple as fuck. /v/ is so shit at games>last judge runback>bilewater runback>courier rasher>high halls gauntlet>namless townand now coral toweryou guys are struggling with this shit?
>>720842889silksong 1
>>720842804wanderer can get 2 hits in for every hit reaper takes in nearly every circumstance reaper is also arse for parrying which you would realize is ungodly powerful if you weren't using reaper
Touching enemies that are the same size or smaller than Hornet shouldnt deal damage until they explicltly have some spikes etc. on them.
>>720842673Nothing you did there seemed to need the reaper crest though.
>>720842709you need to complete shakas line and she will post a quest on the board in bellhart. after you complete that wish, go to greymoor
So, which one of the Green Princes do you think took it up the abdomen every night?
>>720842345If you complete Shakras quest and get her to help she basically does it for you, I just threw tacks down and let her do the rest
>>720842645For this specific one, there's a wish later that will make you follow a track that will reveal this path.But yeah, they went overboard with the hidden ceiling exits. Having to smack all walls in the game is already bad enough, now you also have to jump against the ceiling everywhere.
>>720842896>Time to play better metroidvania like Nine Sols™ Tevi™.>not AquariaIt's like you're not even trying
>>720842917>pretending the bilwater runback is goodYes yes you are an elite great gamer, we know.
>>720842804you really feel how slow it is when you fail to pogo and hornet hangs in the air helpless as the boss is right about to hit you and the game doesn't let you move until the animation is over
>>720842889Path of Exile HC. It's balanced around alt-f4 and approved by devs because game is total bullshit and because it's online only any lag, little spice can kill you. Even with the power of alt-F4 you will die 99% of time. Yes even with alt-F4 macro.
Is it possible to get to this tower thing in the sands of karak before act 3?I think it's the only thing I have left to do and there's no way to climb up from that side by the bench
>>720842952thanks senpai
GMS is a really cool fight but I wish she was a bit harder, the most fun bosses like her or the first sinner are tainted a little by the fact they're so much easier than a shit boss like Groal
>>720843004use your hook lil bro
I still refuse to accept Mooshka's eyes being the little dots. To me he has his eyes closed and looks like a dignified gentleman flea master and whisperer
>>720842697She's got a big ass too
>>720843004where did i say it was good you illiterate shitterits tedious but its not fucking hard. its the same as last judge, you just keep moving and you dont have to worry about a single enemyits timewasting, but all you retards who were calling it hard and saying you lost health to the enemies fucking suck at the game
Childhood is think Groal is a cunt because he killed someone for power. Adulthood is realizing that person he killed was a snail and that he actually was great for trying to protect his people.
>>720842931reaper makes you use everything available in the kit unlike something like the wanderers crest that outputs most dps by just using basic attacks
>>720843136Can't unseen now
>>720843004the bilewater run back was aids yeah but the boss was piss easy and no one should have taken over five attempts to kill him. TC wanted the zone to be miserable opposed to every other amazing one. it had a purpose but you faggots cry about every little thing. fucking worse than women
>>720843172>you just keep moving and you dont have to worry about a single enemyYou would be right if not for Bilewater's enemy spawns being completely random. No enemy placement is ever the same.
>>720842901That‘s not a fucking wall though, is it you god damn retard? Am i also supposed to jump against every part of every ceiling in every room? Are you braindead?
Best way to cheese shakra? bitch moves too much,
I can get the purity wreath before traversing blight town and fighting the frog right? Right?
>>720843268>Am i also supposed to jump against every part of every ceiling in every room?yes
>>720842917Try integrating in society and keeping a stable job if you‘re so good at things that /v/ struggles at
>>720843272wtf why did someone smash his face in with a frying pan????
>>720843332you can, if you know where it is, however that place has 2 entrances and 1 of them is after the frog
>>720843136responsible for 30 little ones that got lost, he looks exactly as he should
I have beaten the last bosses I had left, all that remains is the final boss. I am currently at 96% completion, Things that I know I am missing are 2 mask shards and 2 spool fragments, would that be enough to make it to 100%? I am also missing 3 or 4 relics.
>>720843272We don't cheese bosses here.
>>720843272cogflies, 3point pins, poison
>>7208426457 YEARS
>>720843415you've obviously not been in these threads for the past two weeks.
>teleports all over the place>multi hit attacks>if one hits you, it snaps you into his combo for multi heart damage>perfectly crafted animations, movement and attacks to catch any direction of dodging/jumping etc.>can't even get close because touching means 2 masks damage and he does big ass AoEs tooWho though this was fun?
>>720843474what's so special about three point pins?
Just buff Hornet's attacks especially after her last 2 nail upgrades. So many of this game's problems would be instantly fixed by doing this
>>720843268>plays a genre a game and refuses to accept that it has quirks and niches specific to that genreare you retarded? go play halo or valorant you normie sack of shit
>>720843530after he does his ground AoE slam he always does a charge you can punish with a pogo and multiple hits from behind
>hear anons bitching and moaning about THAT part>reach it>it's easy as shitWhat was it? For me it's Coral Tower
>parry skill is absolute dogshitof course
>>720843530Me, I just chased him down with Clawline.I played it almost exactly like First Sinner.>>720843620Lost Lace
YADAGANOSHKE
>>720843538good burst dps that allows you to keep range. good against fast bosses or bosses you’re scared to get close to for too long
>>720843530Who thought kids dying from cancer is fun?
>>720843629>parry skill is absolute dogshitWrong! You can parry EVERYTHING. Why jump over the boss when you can just walk like a man?
>>720843530You made it, Seth. You're in Silksong!Seth?
Lace II was harder than GMS.
>>720843665this is not awoo
I genuinely wish there was a way to disable double jump after obtaining it.
>>720843530Just be patient, his attacks are easy to dodge once you learn their tells
>>720843530think of it as practice for lost lace. they have the one similarity of telegraphing one thing to switch it up on you. adapt anon
>>720843687>costs 3 silk>deals like 2 hits worth of damage>window is retardedly tight
>>720843656Lost lace took me the longest to learn. What part of the game did you struggle the most with?
>>720842618Completely correct. Silksong has too much open world bloat and needlessly shitty design holding it back, HK is just a better game.
>>720843792Karmelita.
>>720843782on several bosses it turns some of their most deadly attacks into easy openers
>>720843620Savage Beastfly 2
>>720842345Get the thing that keeps you stuck in place when hanging on the wall from the merchant and you can just cheese the last two guys, they can't hit you once you're hanging at the topmost left of right but you can hit them.The rest is easy enough after you disable all the silk stealing marionettes.
>>720843235Remember that he's actually one of the fluffballs sitting on a mech suit
>>720843604Metroid, castlevania or any other decent metroidvania doesn‘t have entire areas hidden like that with no indication. Unless by genre you mean trannyvanias that are inspired by hollow knight you‘re a moron
>>720843761
I beat the game.
>ZANZIBAAAAART!what did they mean by this?
>>720843792>lost lace>learnher last phase is such a clusterfuck of shit all over your screen it genuinely felt like a bullet hell game
>>720843921this i can awoo to
>>720843530Anon. He is LITERALLY a dying person's OC. It would be offensive if he didn't teleport behind you.
>>720843530>Kid with cancer wants to make a boss>Make it the most cancerous boss in the game>Also makes you do the flea minigames again but way harderWhat did Team Cherry mean by this?
>>720843071Answer me you bug-fucking heathens
>>720842645A sidequest literally draws a line into this room
>>720843620savage beastfly 2
>>720843620Vast majority of platforming sections. Like are people seriously struggling with pogo jumps? There are people making video tutorials for how to climb up the Cogcore tower (whatever it was called) to get the melody....like how are people struggling this much?
>>720843665WHERE IS THE FLUFFTEAM CHERRY LIED TO ME
>>720843620The Last Judge runback
>>720842320Its ok bro, at least you didn't use tools
>>720843071You can get to the tower, but you can't do dollar store dream nail in there until Act 3.
>>720844106VARGA NO
>>720843990yeah at that point it was just an exercise of patience in finding your openings (while paying attention to where lace is and what attack is she telegraphing), fitting for a final boss though. I ran out of shards and had to finish her ethically, was fun.
>>720844072Never underestimate how shit people can be at games. Doesn't help that all the Silksong memes and hype brought a fuckton of casuals to try it
All this talk of reaper this and wanderer that, where are my beast bros? I don't heal I boost my damage, if I'm in beast mode when the boss gets stunned the neurons start firing.
>>720842645>using fractured mask>low iq postcan’t make it up
where do i go to get into verdania?
Fair maiden, bright as fireUnclasp the crimson of my desire.My weary heart to you is led.Let fall the cloth your secrets keepHow do you reply?
>>720844337Shaw
If you didn't struggle against beastfly 1 or 2, you left them for later and didn't fight them with default tool and default crest, or minimum enhancements for 2
>>720842508Phantom is old as shit and wanted to die in battle. Read the hunter journal
>>720842804I can get 3 hits of wanderer or 2 hits of hunter in the same space reaper gets 1 hit.
>>720844319I'm afraid you'll need to get inside a gay bug
I can't take Hornet seriously now that I know she was Naruto running the whole time

>>720844480It's the fucking delay waking up from the dream that pisses me off the most
>>720844530Some enemies have damage limit. I heard this from some anon.
>>720844065Is there a rematch against it? I beat it in the lava area with little to no problem wondering why people were bitching about it, so if there's a rematch later on maybe that would explain it.
>>720844561Sorry, but not clicking on your video
>>720844530Get trolled nigger
>>720844580pretty much yeah, there's already a fucking bench INSIDE the dream...just let me wake up there ffssoundtrack is nice tho
https://x.com/du_dang_/status/1967700950208090222
This game has me on pins and needles
>>720844480I first tried him
>>720844530pin master was just ripping you off. kept the oil for himself and used his cum on your blade
>>720844612nah thats it. the first was much worse by virtue of being new to the game, stock mask count, limited tools and less mobility options
>>720844719nice job!
>>720844337Hornet can't hear him when she's buried between Lace's thighs and getting fingered by Shakra, he'll have to speak up.
>>720843530I think he's bugged as well. At least for me I had multiple times where the nail hits just didn't register at all. I think he was supposed to be blocking, but the animation didn't trigger.He's also the only boss you can't hit while he does the phase transition scream.
>>720844337
Man Nyleth is just SO FUN i love dying to janky controls or shitty input reading.
>>720844792holy trvthnvke
>>720844792KING
Is act 3 worth unlocking and playing through? I beat GMS in act 2 and idk if doing every bulletin board request and finding fleas or whatever else I need is worth it.
>>720844792Unironic truth. There's so much weirdly sexually coded or fetish material shit in this game it's insane.
>>720842814They should have made you meet her for more than just fights, she was barely present for a lot of the game. Make her actually be there after phantom dies instead of relegating the appearance to needolin dialogue. Have hornet chase her through the mist or something to parallel the first game. Maybe even add an encounter where she has a reason to help you in a challenge gauntlet, as that's one of the big reasons I liked Shakra.
>have backtrack to and from maps and still have no seen so called kidnapper prison bugAre people pulling my leg?
>>720844872That boss absolutely made me the angriest, I fucking HATE that fight and dying multiple times to a harpoon being just short of actually connecting to her
I lived, bitch.
feels like i have hit a brick wall for progressing to act 3.>no quests available>no visible ways forward on the mapit feels bad i dont want to have to look it up because i didnt need to look up anything in HK
let me guess, act 3? great
>>720844970Are you enjoying the boss fights? If not, there's no reason.
>>720843115this is nigger aids
>>720845138yea

>>720844480fun fact anon: there's 4 hearts in the game, you only need 3, clover dancers is 100% an optional boss
>>720845138where was this? i forgor
Why does she look like that?If she's a weaver why was Deepnest so lame?
>>720844792Where's the lie?
>>720845374she's a big bitch and deepnest was awesome
>>720845081If you completed all of the quests and have the Fleas moved to Fleatopia, all you have to do is beat Lace and then go back to Songclave
>>720842697she needed to give hornet a reason to want to take care of lace.unfortunately for her, hornet prefers the architect crest.
>>720845189>see fat putrid enemies>somehow think they're sexualporn addicts are a blight
>>720845189>ugly bugstard
>explore the entire place>don't find the hidden doll thingy for the witch crest questgreat
>>720845524Go back
Just experienced my first bug with the game. Fighting the fat roach bitch in Sinner's and she just flew off stage and never showed back up. I still haven't updated so not sure if the patch fixed that. Kinda pissed cause I was doing well.
>>720845189>lets herself get captured by these guys when she could easily kill themWhat did Hornet mean by this.
>>720845648its in the lower areas of bilewater iirc
>>720845648The path to get there is hidden in the vaultkeepers place
>>720845189
Hornet has a fixation for round bugs with hair This means she's built for getting FLEAed

>gauntlet of like 10 waves in the citadel>bugs that normally drop rosaries and shells drop neither hereIt's the little things like these convince me troon cherry genuinely made some decisions out of pure spite. They couldn't even throw you a bone - okay you will die a lot, but you will at least farm resources. No, they deliberately manually removed drops for that specific encounter, because fuck you.
>>720843782>retardedly tightIs this your first video game? It's the largest parry window I've ever seen.
>>720845189>Hornet gets captured and stripped by literal fat ugly bastards>has to traverse a prison filled with them completely naked>one of their attacks is shooting out sticky fluid that can immobilize herWHAT DID TEAM CHERRY MEAN BY THIS
>>720845975fun fact of the heart bosses only 1 other is actually difficult, but it has a simple runbackthe other 2 are near impossible not to oneshot
>>720846142I honestly expect them to patch in rosary and shard drops for the gauntlets that dont drop them
>>720845967Hornet is straight
>a random ant is more durable and can take more hits than Hornet after 15 hours of gameplay
>>720846142You should have made friends
First try. Is this really the gauntlet everybody's bitching about, or is there a harder one later?
>>720846248diving straight between lace's thighs
>>720846142Enemies never drop rosaries in a challenge room
>>720846058thanks
>>720843401Can anyone help with this?
>>720845875Even better it's a unique red quill.I wonder if waiting all the way til Act 3 gets you a purple one.
>>720846142Every gauntlet works like that. I'm not sure why though, as you said it's the people struggling that need extra rosaries and shards the most
>>720845738I had Savage Beastfly 2 disappear after it plunged into lava. Waited couple minutes and killed myself.
>>720846302>poison conchcutteryou didn't beat him
>smack this lever in the vaults>all it does is spawn new enemieswhat the hell was the point in that?
>>720846142Why do you need tools until the very last part? They're all extremely basic enemies without any mix-ups.
>>720845223and they were correct. Nui is best girl.
>>720845967I dont see why those two things have to be exclusive.
>>720843401I don't think relics count. I was still missing a couple Bone Scrolls in my 100% file.
>>720846424bestiary completionist autists
>beat the game in 3 and a half hoursI am a GOD
Is the blue blood thing only possible to do with architect? I think I want to use it on the path to the surface, but I definitely don't want the architect downwards attack.
>>720846424They're funny little guys. Also the bestiary entry is amusing because Hornet also realizes how much she fucked up
So I found the 3 cog heart pieces and put them in the Robot but then it just fucked offDoes it show up later? Should I just forget about it for now?
>>720846659Yes and yes
>>720846424It's some trolling. TC knows people will explore as much as possible. Sometimes that's rewarded, sometimes you get nothing, and very, very occasionally, like this, you actually get punished. It's pretty funny.
>>720846659He helps you in some random fights against normal enemies around the citadel but says nothing, idk if there's a quest or something I missed
>>720846601Who hurt you?
>>720846385poisoning barely does anything to conchcutter, poison doesn't stack and conchcutter's entire thing is you try to hit an enemy 10 times with the same shot
my hand after 37 hours of silksong
>>720846437>Why do you need to use the games mechanics? Just treat it like Hollowknight and use none of the new mechanicsThis sequel is shit if this is the best defense for its dogshit you can muster.
>>720846610You can do it if you have maxed tool uses and pop some lifeblood cocoons in the wormways, but then you have to trek all the way there and back without using benches or fast travelling
>>>720846727He does put a quest on the board at one point, don't know what the trigger is exactly but I think I had to find him roaming the citadel once first
>>720846823damn this dude’s GOONIN
>>720846736savage beastfly probably this guy has been spamming these threads and catalog with blacked porn while seething about silksong for at least a few days, this is the mind of the shitter
>people start catching on the concern trolling>back to CP and shitted spam we goIt's too funny.
>>720846585https://youtu.be/QH-Oblh1yRI?si=haMJaQlS_0wqENiP
>>720846919to be fair savage beastfly hurts everybody.
Holy fuck is there really no other bench in BilewaterThe runback is brutal
>>720846935Why does Israel hate this game?
>>720846823kek
>>720846437>why do you need any variety in combat? just mash X like an apeAre you trolling or what? My biggest gripe with the game is not only combat options are extremely limited as is, but even tools get some retarded artificial limits
>>720847056there is another bench
>>720845738Upcoming patch fixes this
>>720844530You're just sharpening the nail, it obviously goes dull again, duh...
>>720846727You have to find him twice in the citadel before he posts his wish. After activating him, he can be found in the long room below cogwork core, west of the hot spring , and the long room that leads to cogwork dancers from first shrine.
>>720846971I'm genuinely so mad that TC overlooked spamming the jump and dash being microscopically faster than just holding sprint down. I can't stand to watch people doing that for nearly an hour straight.
>>720844981It sucks too because she's so pretty
I fucking hate the ant bitch so much. Worst boss.
I hoped the lore would dig a bit deeper into Hornet's Weaver ancestry and uncover some mysteries. But it ended up being a fairly straightforward "here's a new place with a bad guy on top, go stop them" without really exploring any crazy ideas beyond that. Bit lame.
>>720845738Left walls in general are very buggy and enemies can clip through them, I had a conchfly clip out of bounds during the choral chambers gauntlet.
>>720846321Enemies in challenge rooms in Hollow Knight dropped geo, this was a change for the worse for no reason

>>720847204>overlookedjudging by how much bullshit the game is riddled with I'd bet they did it on purpose precisely to make it more difficult and annoying to speedtroons

>>720847194Can I still do his quest after starting act 3?
not going to bed tonight until I beat that fucking judge cuntlost my job a month ago so I can stay up a long time nowlet's do this bitch
>>720842245Finally man, I have to say Lost Lace is a harder final boss than the hag from 9 sols.Much better than Hollow Knight, can't wait for the dlc fights
>>720847629Yes, you should, I have done his quest in act 2, but he still shows up in act 3, I have seen him in my game in act 3.
>>720847337>fucking with speedrunnersbasedyou are morally obliged to fuck with speedtrannies at every angle.
Be honest. After 7 years, is it everything you hoped for?
>>720847745nyesn
>>720847745Yeah
>>720847709nice
>>720847745act 3 is very lazy, act 1 and 2 were great.
>>720847690I also just finished. Lost Lace was awesome. Was expecting to hate it based on people bitching here but I found it to be a great fight.
>>720847745yeah. Can't wait for the dlcs
>>720842345Meh. Try the Groal run.
>>720846601lmao
>>720843172>It's tedious and timewastingYes this is why /v/ hates it, I'm glad you understand now
Why does hornet like taking her dress off
>>720847602It's actually a good challenge since they go the mist route, skipping glide and (of course) double jump. Since the run is basically 5 masks, it makes platforming challenging (which is already tough on some parts, like clockwork and high walls) and even bosses are more interesting to watch.True ending would be a slog to watch, way longer and it would feel like you're watching skilled a let's play.
>>720847690eigong still takes the cake for me
>>720843115I love the platforming in this gamesadly, its becomed easy now. I hope we get DLCs soon
>>720847745Everything and more. I was sure I'd like it less than Hollow Knight but I think I might like it more
>>720847745I expected much much worse.Theres definitely a lot of issues but i can see that they put a lot of effort into it at least
>>720842345Am I the only one who beat it on like 2 or 3 attempts? Garmond and zaza helped me. It wasn't that difficult
Is this fucking door real? How to open?
>>720847653The trick is that standing right next to it is very safe. All its close hitting attacks are easy to avoid.
>>720847745I was only hoping for more of the same, and in that regard it delivers with flying colors and I'm enjoying it a lot.But I don't love it the same. It doesn't quite feel as charming.
>>720847984yes door is real
>>720847745its basically more hollow knight which is all i really wantedit does some stuff better and some stuff worse, overall great
>>720847971I beat it first try. Didn't even need to use cogflies and conch, rune rage nuked the big guys before they got to do anything.
>>720847984Just continue playingi don't think you can even miss the key to that door, it just comes later
>>720847745>is it everything you hoped for?mechanically, yesbut in every other way that matters? not really. i can already tell my brain won't obsess with this game for weeks afterwards like it did with the first hk
Why is Hornet so weak? Everything in this game is a damage spongeWhy does everything deal double damage?Why are upgrades so worthless? There's barely any difference in damage upgraded needle or tools.Why does everything do contact damage? Even fodder flying bugs move like spastics and will damage you when you try to jump close enough to hit themWhy are there so little combat options? Skill ceiling is at rock bottomWhy are there areas in Act 1 with benches that cost 80 rosaries, but only couple pilgrims around?Why are bad players who die and go through area several times rewarded, but good players who finish it without dying are punished?Why are there so many trolly enemy and hazard placements made only to catch player off guard one time?Why are there so many korean MMO tier fetch/grind quests?
>>720847997i knowbut i always end up making a dumb mistake in the 2nd or 3rd phase because i'm too aggressive
>>720843782For me it's not that the window is tight, it isn't, it's that the ending has no i-frames. Whenever I give this thing a chance, I'll do the parry and then get contact damage when the attack ends. In a game where contact damage is so easy to get, it's a major nerf that they made the counter-attack something where you're placed right on their hurtbox instead of some instant counter from range
>>720847984if you do all of the main parts of act 3, you will get the key eventually.
What is this door?
>>720848208>Why is Hornet so weak?She's only weak because you're used to the Knight, the Knight's innocent appearance made people forget he's a void demon with literal godlike genes.
I really appreciate the lack of wholesome chungus quippy millenial writing. Very self serious, elegant prose.
>>720848209wtf meant to quote >>720847995
>>720847745more or less, i just wish that act 3 wasnt so lackluster.
>>720848314I agree. I really like Hornet as a character, how she's so completely pragmatic but does have a soft side she doesn't show to people.
>>720847745I have lot more issues with it than I did with HK but it was still well worth the wait.
>>720847984DOOR STUCK
>>720848262Thats where you got the reaper crest baka
>>720848208its all specifically to filter normies and casuals like you. fuck off and go play any of the thousands of easy metroidvanias made for people like you.
>>720847745I think its better than I expected, it makes HK1 look like a tech demo
>>720847984You have not yet been summoned
>>720848262you done beened there, it closed now
In my professional opinion, there are two(2) runbacks that are egregious enough to be considered cancer>groal>escape run in far feilds>honorable mention pissed off conchflyAnd there are 2(two) times when the exploration is too obtuse and enters "bullshit" teir>finding the mist thicket (would never have found it save for anons)>heart of the woods entrance locationEverything else in these two areas of the game are perfectly reasonable
>>720848367>>720848314Yeah even the the quirkiest NPCs are written decently. The writing is very surprising in this game because it was one of ny biggest fears when I learned Silosong would have way more NPCs and that Hornet would talk.
>>720848314yeah the dialog was a breath of fresh air
>>720848408oh that was so long ago I forgot
>>720848314Which is ironically as normally when retards like you say millenial writing its gen x, and this was actual millenial writing from a millenial.
How do you get Garmond to help you with Batman? I'm guessing you need to die to it first?
What am I supposed to do here?
>>720848627boomerang
>>720848498what do you think of having to use the online map to get 100% since the game doesn't help at all (not even indicating where you got everything)is that perfectly reasonable for a game this big to ask the player to do that, or hit all walls?
>>720848584nah thats cap
>>720847745I think the great part of Silksong is that it feels like a sequel that doesn't invalidate the original.Pharloom will never be as melancholic or "comfy" as Hallownest but Hallownest will never feel as alive, dynamic and as treacherous as Pharloom.Same with how the MCs control.It doesn't feel like more of the same but a whole new thing.
>>720848627idk, i threw my boomerang in here but nothing happened
>>720848410I like games that filter normalfags like Sekiro or Ninja Gaiden, the difference is those games are actually fun and have room for skill expression while Slopsong is a horrendous anti fun slog and feels like cock and ball torture, which I am sure you like too you masochistic fag
Update: still stuck on last judge
>>720847984break the law
>>720848584when people say "millenial writing" what they really mean is west coast commiefornian writing
>wraiths in the mists have no indication when they charge if they're going to go above or at youI hate this.
>>720847745Yes and no. Raw gameplay is great despite some design flaws. The story/lore/motifs/music and all the other stuff that leaves a deeper footprint in your mind, I think it doesn't achieve what Hollow Knight did. Hallownest and the complex web of Dreams-Void-Radiance-Wyrms-Vessels was more compelling.
Where is the heretic key in the slab?
>>720848661Yes because you don't need to get 100%That's a vanity thingThe game doesn't owe you 100% completion. You can absolutely find everything yourself it will just take you longer. You don't need the map.

God fucking dammit, it just happened with Beastfly 2
>>720848719Equip magma bell if you haven't already. And avoiding damage is more important with Judge than dealing damage.
>>720848627If you hit all of them with one boomerang throw a little guy appears who upgrades it to the one karmelita uses
>die to clover dancers>have to go back through the entirety of verdania because team cherrys autism mandates that no benches in dreams>no maps eitheri fucking hate this game at this point
>>720847745I wasn't hyped for Silksong at all but I've dumped about 50 hours into the game and it's a 10/10 for me.>but it has flaws10/10 doesn't mean a literally flawless, perfect game, because such a thing doesn't exist. I'd like it if Act 3 were a little more fleshed-out and if the game didn't fucking auto-equip new crests, but I still loved every minute of it.
>>720848774it's not in the slab
>>720848835yeah. the boss itself is not that hard. the runback is what kills me.
>>720847204Same, I hate that shit so much. It's not fun if you're running the game, either.
>>720843620If you struggled with coral tower I don't even know how you got there in the first place.
>>720848886>no mapsAnon…

Do you get anything from dueling Shakra more than once?
>>720846362It does
>>720848715if you had any skill to express you wouldn't be complaining about things like double or contact damageand you especially wouldn't be complaining about bad players being "rewarded" by being forced to kill everything over and over again. like being forced to farm is somehow better than just being given the option.
>>720842737Can't believe hornet eats from thereI mean there eats from hornet... whatever
>>720849029nta but lost verdania had a map? Where was it?
>>720849006Anon I'm going to help you outThere is an escspe route at the bottom that leads to sinner's road
>>720848894That would certainly explain why I hadn't found it. Say no more. I will continue on my merry way.
>>720848970>>720849029verdania has a map; lost verdania doesnt
Done with Act 3. Missed some side bosses, but this is what I think about what I fought. Only taking the fight into account, no runback or prefight waves. Feel free to laugh at me sucking at the pogo boss, but I'l die on that hill that he's ass.Really loved the game, but there are a lot of criticisms I've seen that I agree with. Honestly just reducing all non-lava hazard damage to 1 and lowering the mob arena spam would make this a perfect game to me.
>>720848886There's a shortcut
>>720842635
>>720848774Its in an another area entirely, not the slab, not the citadel
>>720848778>You can absolutely find everything yourself it will just take you longer. You don't need the map.This is false. You'll always miss one thing. The map is so big, too. Most metroidvanias at least indicates what you miss in each zones at one point (not necessarily the position, but at least it says "0/1 mask shard"). I like the game, I want to 100% it, so why does it punish me for trying do so? They even allow you to buy the location of ALL remaining fleas, so why the fuck can't they do the same for the 100%?The 100% isn't even a true 100%, it's confusing since it is basically never explained anywhere what are required (the farscope item lists everything, but not everything is required). Doesn't even require filling the journal, get all mementos.I feel like it's the biggest fuck you from TC to the players who enjoys the game.
>>720849170Go right before entering the faggot's mind
>>720843979Shut fuck up faggot
Honestly one pf the only things I really hate about the game is how little money the game gives you, like fuck man at least let the enemies in the gauntlets give you money the first time you defeat them
You could seriously cut out Wormways, Wisp Thicket, Putrified Ducts, Sands of Karak, Verdania, and Memorium - take the unique content they have and just reshuffle it into the other zones - and the game would lose basically nothing. I would much prefer if the map had fewer zones but if each zone was more unique and special.

>>720843979keep talking straight guy
>>720849403Left from the stag
>>720849425oh for fucks sake. i just killed the clover dancers, i never benched between respawns so its only updated now
One day, there will be no more comfy silksong threads on /v/ :(
>>720849356So you have no argument at all, not even about the fleas. I see, thanks for the concession I guess.I did the 100% by the way, I'm just thinking of others, it doesn't have to be like that.
>>720848314I agree sir, bug*tips bugdora*updoots
>>720849151As I clearly stated, slopsong has no room for skill expression, hence there's nothing to express, correct.>and you especially wouldn't be complaining about bad players being "rewarded" by being forced to kill everything over and over againWhat are you even talking about? Bad players are rewarded, because they naturally gather more rosaries. In act 1 I was multiple times in the situation where I made it to a bench, but didn't have enough rosaries, because there weren't enough pilgrims on my path. I was the one forced to farm. I was forced to backtrack, respawn enemies and farm them again. People who died on the other hand just got rosaries seamlessly through normal gameplay. If you don't understand what you are talking it means you were one of those people, who had to go through the same area several times, because you died a lot.
>>720847745Yes. I thought HK was fine and I was never that hyped for silksong, just interested for more HK and it surprised me by being better in every way
Would receiving some money for every flea rescued like it was done with the grubs in HK be a good change ?
>>720849331Real shit, in hollow knight if I did all the shit I’d at least have cash for everything, in silksong I still had to grind out some cash and I think I found almost all the bead strings
>>720849425>>720849260Shit, I never sat at a bench and just oneshot the area. Not like I ever used compass, I just mental mapped shit until I had to complete the beastiary.
>>720849531People who die die again and lose their rosaries before getting them backYou're creating a fake scenario in your own head to be mad aboutSeek help
>>720849498All we'll be left with is bait threads were babby's first Discord psy-op tries to gaslight people into thinking that the game is a 4/10 flop for trannies and Pajeets. just as jannies intended.
>>720849259>waah why isnt the game specifically designed for autists that cant live without getting a 100% on their save file
>>720849531Retard. Always funny to see shitters mental gymnastics their own incompetence.
>>720849487I just said mist is 2 spooky, do u even read
>striking the big 3 bells above the benches does nothing>playing the needolin at certain places where there's clearly a point of interest or musical notes written down does nothingreally disappointing desu
>>720849531You seem stupid.
Finding fleas feels much less rewarding compared to the grubs in the first game
>>720842508Phantom actively wanted to go down in a blaze of glory so Lace would be fine with it.
>>720849693I was really expecting them to hide a secret wall behind pogoing the highest bench bell at some point.
>>720843931I'm afraid you didn't actually beat the game :)Also>cheesing lace 2What are you doing black poc of color?
last judge really wasnt that bad, beastly was far worse.
>>720849742it would be nice if you could hold more brew with each breakpoint
>>720849498I really enjoyed these threads accompanying my first playthrough of the game, everytime I asked for a hint that wasn't too spoilery someone quickly obliged and there was no schizo dedicated enough to make the threads unusable. It's been a comfy couple of weeks
why the fuck did going into hornets memories require cutting the hearts out of three corpses of random old rulerswhy were those hearts still beatingwhy did cutting the hearts out require going into their memories and killing themeven within the logic of hollow knights world this shit is nonsensicalheres what happened>its been 6 years and reddit is getting angry the game isnt out>we still only have 2 acts>well do the void so the knight can appear to win reddit back>but what enemies should we have>just repurpose those cut areas into boss fights and well invent some nonsense to tie it all together>and the final boss?>just do lace again idkact 3 is so fucking bad its unreal
CHADma
>>720843401Yes it should be enough, tools, mask shards and spool fragments all account for 1% each
>>720849827Because it's cool
>>720849592Yes
>>720849742Mooshka not throwing a shit ton of roseries around like grubfather was such a blunder
>>720849617>People who die die againIt's not a given. You pulled it out of your assYou are the one who makes shit up. I analyze gameplay mechanics as they are. They reward bad players and punish better players. The proof is me being punished multiple times for going through area without dying and shitters here not even comprehending what's the problem, because they were rewarded for playing worse.>>720849661You don't have to reply If you have no argument, I'd have accepted your concession regardless.
>>720849813I agreeThough I ended up spoiling too much of the game myself by being retarded and spending too much time here, I had fun with you guys
>>720842320Good feel ashamed and switch back to Hunter's crest like a true gamer.
>>720849813>no schizo dedicated enough to make the threads unusablethey were successfully distracted by the decoy threads

They really wanted me to think this Nyleth garden boss thing and its fight are something profound and dramatic huh? So much fanfare and such heavy zanzibartian music. Shame I don't give a shit about some literal who with 0 importance for story or lore, the stuff with Garmond in the end is 5x more emotional.
>>720850161
Are Voltvessels based?
>>720849827>just do lace again idkWhy do people like her? I just wanted a cool final boss, not a 80% reused boss. Why can't people understand this boss (and many other shit bosses of act 3) actually leaves a bad taste after playing the game? They are so stuck in their position, they refuse to acknowledge many legitimate issues of this game (that aren't even gid gud related, though that's either this answer or "cry more").
>>720850129Like a dog?
>>720850260the nyleth theme is more for seth.who is a backer character that belongs to a now dead make a wish kid.
>>720842697Isn't that just poofy pants, not her ass?
Any advice for fighting the antbitch? If she has a third phase I haven't even made it that far yet.
>>720850323>they refuse to acknowledge many legitimate issues of this gametheyve spent seven years jerking off how this is going to be the best game ever made; they cant admit to themselves they wasted their time
>>720850260Truest of trues, seeing Garmond laying there like golden freddy while zaza sat next to him post battle broke my heart
Can you open this door? Does it lead to the horned guy the snails tell you to find?
>>720850323>Why do people like her? cute
what is the purpose of act 3 outside of making reddit soiface?like genuinely
>>720850041You have to be pretending to be retarded, otherwise it's pretty grim. Dying two times in a row before touching cocoon is much less probable than dying once, getting rosaries back and progressing in baby steps. I'd bet that's how vast majority of the players experienced the game. You have no argument, just seething. Fuck off, don't reply to me ever again
>>720847745I had zero expectations because I didn't like Hollow Knight, so yeah. In fact, it blew my expectations out of the water.
>>720850427No, it opens as part of an Act 3 sidequest.
How much shit is hidden away in act 3? I went back to the high halls gauntlet and found another harp for the collector bug in Bellhart. I'm now worried there are more things like that easily missed.
Is it possible to enter Act 2 through the Wispy Thicket, or do you absolutely need double jump to get up there?
>>720849827Why is it nonsensical?The snails delve into soul power and soul is associated with memory in the games. With the mind and focus and memory. It's actually not even the only game that associates the soul with memory, there's probably some sort of theoretical and spiritual floating around in cultures that some games are borrowing from.They need powerful souls for their spell and are able to give an ability to go into the those guys' souls through their memories and get them when they're at their strongest.Obviously it's fantasy shit that has no bearing in reality but in its own universe it's not lacking sense.
>>720850476To make you seethe. Why are you here? Play some codslop.
>>720850380Keep up your aggression because your attacks can clank with hers and that's safer than retreating. When you move, always move in a way that gives you additional options rather than getting yourself cornered. You can pogo the floor spikes.
>>720850427You'll be summoned there when your crimes become too great for the birdbugs to ignore
>>720850476Cut content cobbled together to make something that resembles cohesiveness
>>720850161A human man could've given her all the children she wanted and fixed all the problems
>>720850521lost judge or the mist, can you even reach wisp thicket without double jump? I don't think so
>>720850514Even if you do everything possible in act 2, act 3 is 10+ hours of sidequests, new areas, and story missions. It's colossal.
>>720850476It made me soiface as well.It's basically just the dream hunt in HK but with extra stuff to do on the side.It's very fun.
>>720849831They're lucky Ghost isn't there, otherwise there'd be like half a kingdom of void-demi-god spawn running around in a few months.
>>720842245Such a tragically fragile existence... She says while killing me dozens of times
>>720850476It's post-game content, anon.
>>720850521I think even if you somehow got into Wisp Thicket without it, you could't even reach the shortcut to Underworks to get to Act 2.Especially considering you wouldn't have the harpoon either
remember Steel Soul Jinn? And how there were supposed to be similar looking enemies in Silksong? what happened?hope the next Hollow Knight game is set in the Steel City and you play as the titular Hollow Knight after the Embrace the Void ending
>>720850484Your argument boils down to>I'm too good at the game! The game is PUNISHING ME for being good! People who are BAD get more money and I get less money!Then I pointed out that people who are bad can get less money because they'll die before they get their money back, to which you responded>THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN YOU JUST MADE THAT UP THAT'S NOT REALit's just as real of a scenario as people not dying at all. Once again, you imagined a scenario to make yourself mad, then got mad when someone pointed out how you can imagine a different scenario that would not make you as madThe fact is simpleYou don't enjoy playing video gamesYou just want to be madDumb cunt
>>720850774>third panelHoly fuck I need ripped bloomers art of Lace so fucking badly.
what's the point of this room on (I assume) the top right of bilewater? Thought it might be the route to shakira but there's fuckall here.
>>720850774Glass is fragile but you can still cut yourself to ribbons on it
Any hints for seekers soul
>>720850659I think it's possible to get in if you lead one of the flying guys over to where you're supposed to jump to, but I'm pretty sure that part of greymoor is already gated behind double jump so it's probably no.
>>720850815My guess is that the steel soul guys will appear in some sort of lifeblood free dlc of the game
>>720850774could be that without grandmother silk she can't naturally heal wounds or so, so she's got basically incredibly limited time left?
>>720850815The guys in the Whispering Vaults turn silver like Jinn after getting Void tainted
>>720847745Bigger, better, faster, nastier. Yes, it's practically a perfect sequel. A few minor gripes:>Act 1 is too linear>some unfun elements (Savage Beastfly, Bilewater runback)>Coral Tower feels sloppy, shoved in last minute>no real Path of Pain equivalent (Nameless Town and Sands of Karak come close, but that's not quite it)>final boss being Lace 3 sucks
>>720850548Some things in fantasy you just have to acceptWhy does Silk in this game extend bugs lifespan? Because it's magical silk, and you move on with your life.
>>720842371yeah hornet is pure alright
>>720850161>>720850274>>720850636She's getting VOIDED by The Lord Of Shades alongside the Radiance and Godseeker as we speak.
>>720850938Whoah wait who?
I gave up. It's not possible to get cursed ending if you're shitter. I can't even do cradle platforming without losing at least one mask. Such small runback is already killing me. I want to fight boss nonstop without moving my fragile body and hearing 6 seconds long scream.
>>720851005void tentacles...
>>720850987>Act 1 is too linearHow?
>>720851005>>720851123
>>720847653ok it starts nowif you don't hear from me in the next 3 or 4 hours avenge me
>>720850380just stand about this far away from heralso she's pretty easy to parry, especially if you're using the parry skill. try to learn how to parry her 3-hit combo, at least the last hit. everything else can just be dodged. basically you never want to be standing right next to her unless you're punishing her for an attack because you're likely to get caught.i forgot the standing boomerang throw, but that has a long windup so it's easy to see coming. just dash back and jump.
>>720851096Go to sleep niggaMuscle memory needs to consolidate and this happens only during sleep
>>720850774I feel like lace would be built like GMS, so her legs are all made of silk while the dark part of her body consists just of her head and torso
>>720850815>embrace the voidalmost the worst ending plotwise, superior only to sealed siblings.

Ok there's definitely something in this coral tower after the raging conch nigger right? It feels like there should be something here but I can't find shit.

hypothetically if you were making a game about the hollow knight (pure vessel) would you send him to a kingdom full of gigantic bugs so you'd still have a small protagonist? or would you want to be a big guy fighting many small enemies?
Good game. Act 3 is a bit rough, some cool bosses but also some that feel like filler, and the void infection doesn't change up the zones enough to make going through them again feel fresh, but it's not enough to detract from how good it feels to just fight stuff. Always used to hold Hollow Knight up as the standard for a game where just doing the basic shit like moving and attacking feels great and it's even better here.Lost Lace rules but I was genuinely shocked when she went down in phase 3. I was on my 6th or 7th attempt and felt like I was only just starting to get the phase down and then she was dead. Needs like twice the HP for that section, minimum. Genuinely feeling a bit blue balled by it. Was just getting into the groove and figured I'd have a good few more runs before I finally got her but, nope, she just dies.
>>720851228>all of this autism>I just facetanked her with wanderer and parried through half her hits with spamLol
>>720847745I thought the original HK handled exploration better with it's rewarding and fun nature, but most of the bosses and combat are significantly better in SS.
>>720851383The challenge is solving the riddles, not going there afterwards. It's neat if you don't look it up like a coward.
>>720851324Unfortunately for you It or Flower ending is canon due to lord of shades appearance
>>720850774
>>720842896>TC is trying their hardest to limit player's powerlevel.Is that why they made you several hundred percent more agile and faster than in HK? To limit the player's powerlevel? You can't be serious.
>>720851392how would you even make a game about him, he's gone to the void with all his siblings
>>720851373It's for act 3 nigga dont worry about it
>>720850129Lace is too much of a brat
>>720851436that works too>>720842896you should probably kill yourself
>>720851459except it doesn't prove anything other than he exists, the Knight shows up in the same form as at the end of dream no more
>>720851436I Wanderer'd through phase 1 and 2 then dumped 16 poison buzz saws as soon as phase 3 started. ggez.
>>720851383Only two off the mark
>>720851012Act 3 under Songclave

>>720842896You should live yourself.
How do you get into that little alcove to the left of bonegrave where you got the wanderer crest?
What's up with this room? I can hear someone.
>>720851393>Lost Lace rules but I was genuinely shocked when she went down in phase 3I felt the same way. Beat it on my third attempt and first time even seeing the phase. I really think endgame bosses should be at minimum five minutes of fighting to prove you can handle the attacks.
>>720851347that hourglass figure's unlocking my Steel Dick mode
>>720848726This. Starbucks drinkers are the same regardless of generation.
>>720851770Anon if you can hear things you should probably play music
>>720851770Perhaps they're waiting for a performance
I thoroughly enjoyed this game and am very excited for more to comeTeam Cherry has solidified themselves as some of the best game devs of all time
>>720851516Fucking knew there was something about it. Honestly after getting the first ending I'm kind of struggling to find shit to do at this point and am not really sure what to aim for to get anything else.
HOW DOES HORNET FEED LACE SILK
>>720851951She eat da poo poo
>>720851951Orally
>>720851793I think part of the problem is she has way more openings for you to dump big damage into her in phase 2 and 3 than she does in phase 1. When she's summoning void shit she's regularly open for 4-5 strikes whereas you're lucky to get in 2 in any opening in the first phase.
>>720851514finish godmaster
>>720851951Breastfeeding
>>720851951fun fact, they modified goats to produce spider silk from their nipples
>>720851459I heard, but I also heard it might also be the best ending, no more dreams.I've just been killed by the palestag, so I wouldn't know anyway.
>>720851951
>All the people that seem to just forget that clawline is a legitimate attack on its ownI feel like the only person that didn't hate the Nyleth fight because I remembered that I could just spam that at her, it even counts towards and benefits from hunter focus.
>>720851845They weren't going out when i played until i farmed some silk and played longer. That's it? No moths or secret items?
i got to lost lace. im seriously considering dropping the game. ive already decided im not going to bother with the steam cheevos at this point and i cant be fucked fighting this stupid bitch a third time especially with the bullshit copy paste void attacks thrown inact 3 has absolutely obliterated what was otherwise a solid 8-9/10 game for me
>>720852010there's no real reason to assume that's the canon ending over dream no more
>>720852089Sometimes a cool moment is its own reward, anonnow murder them for bestiary completion
>>720852083wait hold on people hated that fight?I didn't even use clawline I just waited for her to switch sides and then pogo'd her until she did a dangerous attack, was pretty ez
>>720851237Nah I want to play the game and reach true ending. I didn't beat Radiant HK either. No healing, no tools, no charms is too hard.
>>720851534Sherma is so lucky...
>>720852083Tools makes it easy to forget, I unironically forgot about clawline until the brutal climb to Herald
>only gay character in the game is an incestuous freak who hornet murders and makes fun ofWhat did team cherry mean by this?
>>720851951>two eternal lolis>one needs to transfer some magic substance to the other to keep them aliveHmmmm....
>>720852091I will admit that I've not finished act 3 yet, but I've not yet encountered anything I would consider truly bullshit except for the entrance location to the pollen heartI think most of you are shitters desu
>>720852091It's an extremely fair fight. She does the same moves in all 3 phases. You just have extra obstacles to deal with in the later two. Think of them as stage hazards. Probably my favourite in the whole game.
>>720852083I liked that fight
>>720851165>>720851123>>720851005>>720850161
>>720852116>there's no real reason to assume that's the canon ending over dream no morein act 3 you can see Ghost's shade taking on the form of the Lord of Shades for a moment, the exact visage and appearance he had in Godmaster's ending
>>720852189the fight's just extremely boring for the concept of "a super duper powerful heart of nature from time's past"thats why i hated it at least. the real boss there was seth.
>>720849006ok I found a way to get to sinner's road but only the right section, it's gated offthat's kinda stupid but I got a bench and can farm rosaries to bring all the way back to bilewater to unlock the bellway
>>720852005That's true. Wanderer just shreds her during those attacks.My theory is that they might have wanted a phase 4 with voided grand mother silk but it got removed and turned into a dlc fight for later.
>>720851951Where does normally comes out of?
OC
>>720852292>not just cropping the head and putting over the dog's head so the energy of the meme is retained0/10, apply yourself
Nerf Lost Lace.
Is the apostate key even in the slab? I got captured early on in Act 2 and never found it. Came back and cleared Mount Fay and still never found it.
>>720852247im still amazed team cherry went that routeOutright confirming that lace and hornet look too young for their own good
>>720852408It is not
>>720852385It doesn't need nerfed, it just needs better visual cues. Everything is too damn black
>>720852408It's in another locationI can't actually remember where off the top of my head, but it's not the Slab
>>720852302only for a moment, the prime form he shows up in is the same one he takes at the end of dream no more, if lord of shades was fully canon he'd be in that form permanently
Act 3 spoiler questions:So what exactly is the Knight's connection to the Void now? does he control the Void, or part of it? is the Void's attempt to consume Pharloom actually Ghost's idea, or is he like a rogue entity that can do the opposite of what the Void as a whole wants? it looked like it definitely wanted to consume Hornet but the Knight saved her, it appears he hasn't dissolved into the Void like i thought he did.
>>720852246>welcome back Hornet. I see you've found the heart of the green prince, one one half ruler of a forgotten kingdom. We didn't tell you to go after him because we thought he was long gone, but it seems you were very proactive in procuring this ingredient for the spell>spell?
>>720852170Nah, the're cool.
>>720852476>>720852498Okay thanks
>>720852408Bilewater
>>720848816>>wandererWhy beat the game when your brother can do it for you twice
>>720852515I think he's part of it together with all the discarded knights
>>720852515Void just tries to consume everything, the Knight is inside the void and did not give a shit about what was happening until he noticed Hornet was in danger(the flower was likely hiding her from his view until it ran out of power).
>>720852593>whatcha doin' in my waters?
>>720852627*ting ting ting*FARI DUNA SEMA NETDONI PWANA VODY NETPENA SONI MANI SETGANA FONSU WER BON
>>720852525It's honestly one of my biggest issues with the game that you have to kill passive mobs to complete the beastiary. It feels out of character for hornet to just murder one of those tiny little flying birds that are incapable of doing damage to you. I wish you could complete the beastiary by playing music for passive mobs instead. If you get one to sing it counts as one "kill" until you complete the observation and fill out the note
>>720842320Is reaper ez mode? I have been using it since I unlocked it because the airborne down attack feels the best, but it's hella slow.
AWOOGOOAWOOGOOAWOOGOOAWOOGOOAWOOGOO
doesn't picking this shit up fuck me?
>bilewater boss has an insane runback AND an annoying gauntlet you have to do every fucking timemight be at my breaking point bros. this is the first time Im getting straight up pissed at this game. is there some kind of cheese for this fat fucking faggot.
>>720852903It will cry in your inventory, it only fucks you when you take it to the weird rebirth bitch
>>720852515It took it to mean either the knight attained the void given focus form either from the pantheon ending or after the dream no more ending sometime in the time gap between HK and this game's ending. It looks like the void is vast enough that it's not entirely under his control, but his will and power are stronger than any local part.
>>720852903no, all it does is add a crying baby to your inventory.
>>720852903It will be annoying in your inventoryYou can choose not to do the quest for it tho
>>720852903Picking it up no, you must go to greyroot and accelt her new mission.
>>720852781She's a hunter man, that comes with killing prey for sport.
>>720852905Yes nigga it's been discussed to deathFirst of all there's a secret bench closer to the fightSecond, If you didn't realize, the game is literally begging you at that point to use your fucking toolsThat's why they're there. Most people will just ignore tools throughout most of the boss fights. They designed this boss SPECIFICALLY with a move that sucks you up which you can toss a bomb into (classic trope) and blow him up for big damage. If you pull out all of your cogflies and toss bombs at him, he will go down in like a minute and a half>BU-UUHHHH THAT'S C-C-CH-CCHHHHEEEEEESSSSEEEEEEokayThen don't beat the game if you're going to refuse to engage with the mechanics.There are fights where they very clearly designed them without thinking about tools, most of them are solo duels between equally sized opponents. In these cases the fights are often too fast to use tools effectively and it's more efficient to just attack directly. Then there are fights where tool use is encouraged, such as bosses at the end of gauntlets, like bognigger was. Get smart, dumbass
>>720843687>EVERYTHINGWRONG. Energy attacks and attacks that deal area damage (like explosions) don't work. Also I'm pretty sure some critical hits like lace multihit attack go through it. Which is a shame cause I really wish it was better.
>>720852905I'd say he's the hardest boss in the game for that gauntlet and run back alone but thankfully once you get the runback and gauntlet decently down to muscle memory the boss himself is probably the single easiest boss of act 2 and has basically no health so you can finish him easy. Just pogo off the mobs when they jump out to finish them in one or two goes and then stick to the side platforms for the boss and he basically can't touch you for most of his attacks.
>>720852905cheese itfuck that
>get the 3 melodies questline and double jump and start splorin>find fire dude boss, lost sinner and bilewater fatty>all 3 are too annoying to deal withoh no I might be getting filtered
>>720852783No. It's one of the weaker crests. Definitely "you did beat the game" tier.
Groal is not that hard. People just get psyched out because Bilewater is total fucking AIDS.
>>720852905>Jump on the siltkin>slash at the tall ones, trying to stay at their height>to cheese Groal stay in a corner, accept the muckmaggots, he's nearly unable to hit you, while you can spam tools.Honestly I managed without cheese, just poisoned cogflies and normal fighting, but I heard he has that weakness
>>720853156Just finish normal end.
So, I'm 40 hours in, and I just learned there's a taunt in the game. And I didn't even learn it in my own game, I was just watching a let's play (much earlier in the game than I am).
>>720853085>bombs>cogfliesnigga what bombs? cogflies? will the boomerang do it?
>>720852905Groal has been the only low point of the game for me. If you stay in the maggot water right in the corner he can't hit you, jump out to poke him when its safe and tool spam
>>720853250I'm not used to playing on a controler so I literally forgot the stick buttons existed lol
>>720853265>nigga what bombs? cogflies?explore more anon
>>720853152>get eaten>hit him from the insideI ain't touching that maggot water.
>>720853265Nta, the bombs (pimpillos) and the coglies are red tools, and the coglies are the best in the game.The boomerang is good tho.
You can easily pogo Groal. >b-but muh contact damageYou have double jump and clawline for a reason.
>>720853265>he lacks the knowledgeYeah boomerangs will work as long as theyre poision, but you probably need another source of damage ontop of. Lacking those two I mentioned, spike trap is probably the best bet as he tends to not move around alot
>>720850818I said do not reply to me retarded gorilla nigger. You either don't want or can not engage intellectually with my argument, so don't waste my time, I am not reading another one of your autismal drivels.
>>720853428>poison>boomerangfor what reason?the entire reason you're tossing a boomerang is to hit an enemy multiple times by timing the return trajectory inside thempoison doesn't buff multi-hit tools that much
>>720852905Tip: you don't have to bumrush him. After his attacks you can just go in for a hit and fuck off. Also aerial attacks are you friend against the regular gauntlet, if you bounce on the leaf fucks they can't do shit.
>>720842245so what is considered the easiest crest? I've beean using the reaper crest in the beginning but switched to the wanderer for the most of my playtime.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>find shakralmao
>>720853428alright thanks anons. going to throw on poison, boomerang and spike traps and take this fat fuck down once and for all.
>>720852379Fuck you for making me put effort into this stupid meme
>Missing metal for the cogfliesFuck me I guest
How the fuck do I explore the entirety of The Slab? Do I HAVE to get captured?
you guys are actually bad at the game? I thought you were doing a bit
daily reminder using cogflies disqualifies you from actually beating the game.
How do you open this connection? Or do you need to be in act 3?
>>720853659Same. I should've saved one, instead of repairing the weaver tool. But more than that, I regret making the backdash tool.
>>720853598Now that's how you meme
>>720853697No. But you should anyway.
>>720853751>But more than that, I regret making the backdash tool.This trash tool claims another victim.
