A genie appears and offers you a deal. You get one million dollars tax free, right now, but...you can never play Silksong. Silksong is guaranteed to live up to the hype and become remembered as one of the greatest games of all time, and will get equally great DLC for years. You also can't watch streams or playthroughs. The most you can do is read threads about it on /v/. These clauses are magically enforced.

Deal or no?

>>719717701
There are a lot, but I wouldn't say they're needed to enjoy the game. The two ones that come to mind are the voice acting mod and Pale Court mod.

I see a Silksong or HK thread on page 9 or 10? I bump. Keep em coming lads. Silkcatalog tomorrow

>>719717509
Are the mods worth it?
The pale court thing seems kind of neat. But I don't know if I should choose PC just for the off chance of good mods possibly coming in the in the future.
Maybe I'll just buy it on sale some time five years from now and double dip. If a good mod for PC comes.

Pantheon 5 on its own is pretty easy, but I just can't do it with all the bindings. The Markoth into GPZ section kills 90% of my runs. I'm not going to be able to do it before Silksong.

Same boat. But I never tried to do it on the PC version.
It may interest you to know that I've fought AbsRab twice on keyboard. Once in P5 and once in the Hall. I won both times. I've NEVER lost to AbsRad on keyboard controls.
It pleased me to no end. I then proceeded to try to Steel Heart the game like I did on switch but died somewhere and dropped the game out of bigger interest elsewhere.

I think I'll try to do it after SS.

Bro I literally tried Hollow Knight again on like the 27th August because of the Silksong hype, I left it as late as I possibly could, I'll fight Radiance at a later date the bad ending still counts as beating the game.
>>
>>719741886
They said they'll fix the lore so that all endings can be considered canon. If Silksong is a prequel, that's easy and the only thing that wouldn't make sense is how weak Hornet is when you fight her in Hallownest. If it's a sequel, idk. I guess she beats the shit out of the void monster and goes about her day for the default P4 ending. I forget whether the other endings would contradict too hard if we've moved the setting away from Hallownest for a sequel.

>Bad Ending 1
After you defeat the Hollow Knight your little Knight absorbs the infection and is sealed away buying the Hollownest a few centuries of peace

>Bad Ending 2
Near the end of the fight with the Hollow Knight Hornet appears and uses your thread to bind the Hollow Knight. Unfortunately you weren't quick enough to enter the Hollow Knight's dream world and Hornet is knocked unconscious. After a long battle you defeat the Hollow Knight, but you are sealed in the Black Egg with Hornet spending who knows how long together locked in each other's embrace.

> Neutral Ending 1
Same as above but you managed to enter the Hollow Knight's dream world and challenge the sealed god Radiance. As you strike down the elder god the darkness inside you takes over and your shade tears open Radiance's face and your shade lashes at her before finally dragging the elder god down into the void. The infection of the Hallownest subsides, the Black Egg disappears, and Hornet awakens to discover your broken shell.

>Bad Ending 3
After meeting the Godseekers you challenge the Absolute Radiance. Upon their defeat your shell tears open and your shade leaks out and falls into the void. The Void Entity fully takes your place, and tears Radiance apart. Void rains down on Godhome devouring all the Godseekers. The Godseeker's collective form in the real world explodes into a thrashing mass of void. Hornet watches the infection slowly subside before you appear dragging broken chains and attack her.

>True Ending
Same as above but just as the shared body of the Godseekers is about to burst a single drop of the void that is spurting out of their mask falls on the delicate flower you gave her. In a flash of pure and gentle light the Godseeker and the Void disappear and the scene shifts to Hornet in the Temple of the Black Egg like above, and she turns to look at her approachign hero Knight as you returns freed from you duty and the void.

>Why was ADIDO so important that a deal was made for her and she was passed onto three different mothers?
>How the fuck did so many vessels escape the void to the point they exist in another land?

>>
>>719745142
>>How do the bugs outside of hallownest maintain their sanity without the pale king’s influence?
A lot of bug species are already intelligent like bees, mantis and snails, Pale King just gave feral cockroaches sentience
>>
>>719744869
Near as I can figure, the Radiance doesn't exist in the physical realm, and throughout the game it is trapped away in the dream realm of the hollow knight. The Godseeker/s are looking for a replacement for the Gods of Rand and Thunder who abandoned them, and so they are basically infiltrating the collective dream realm of the hallownest hoping to usurp Radiance as their new God. When you face Absolute Radiance you are facing Radiance at the zenith of it's power and not the weakened form that is trapped in the Hallow Knight.

Godhome is the collective dream realm of all the Godseekers which is in the body of the Godseeker you meet in the Junk Pit. I believe that all the other Godseekers are dead or in some kind of spiritual form and just share a single body.

>Why was ADIDO so important that a deal was made for her and she was passed onto three different mothers?
canon: she was a bargain chip from the pale king. herrah promised him to be a dreamer to seal the hollow knight and to try and quell tensions between hallownest and deepnest and bring their kingdoms together if the pale king gave her a divine child.

non-canon speculation: deepnest's relations with the pale king's civilization were very tumultuous so hornet was likely not received well by deepnest's citizens, hence why she was sent off to the hive to train under vespa and why she was named hornet. her original character concept was "daughter of three queens" (white lady, herrah, vespa) but it's not clear if this is what the actual lore is since there's nothing in game that states this outright.
>>
>>719744869
>is defeating absolute radiance just some fever dream and you're really defeating the radiance inside hollow knight all along?
The rules of this part of the lore play fast and loose and it doesn't make much sense but basically the Godseekers realm is some type of dream realm, and the Radiance is really contained in a dream. So when you summon the Radiance within the Godseeker realm, it is the real Radiance - as opposed to a make-believe theoretical version of a Godhome boss like Sisters of Battle which isn't actually real.
Killing the final Radiance in the Godhome pantheon actually kills it, and frees the Hollow Knight without killing him.

They're servants of a higher being called the Nightmare Heart. They're also associated with the dream realm, but they feed on the nightmares of fallen kingdoms. Grimm is the grown vessel of this energy that's ultimately sacrificed to the heart, and the grimmchild is his replacement.

we know that the weavers looked after her for a bit, and the weavers are a core part of the silksong story, so there's probably a connection there. the weavers in the original hollow knight were also said to have come from outside of hallownest. pharloom is probably their home and we'll find out exactly what they're up to.
maybe herrah didn't actually birth hornet, and was gifted her by the pale king + the weavers from her birthplace in pharloom, but pale king + herrah is just what the bugs of hallownest were told?

>So obviously there’s more to Hornet in that secrets to her origins exist in another kingdom
yep. really hoping pharloom and hallownest are a lot closer and/or interconnected than they first seem. maybe hornet is the piece that ties them together which is why she was kidnapped by the cultists?

Grimm and his troupe serve the Nighrmare Heart. They go from fallen kingdom to fallen kingdom consuming their nightmare energy. Each time, the grimchild grows to adulthood and replaces the Troupemaster. Grumm/Nymm wants to stop the cycle, hence his alternate ending to the quest. It's not entirely impossible that the Troupe shows up again in Silksong with the Grimmchild that you raised as the new Troupe Leader.

Hornet's dialogue in the beast's den makes this extremely unlikely. She shows up to mourn her mother if you've progressed her part of the story before killing Herrah.

There's a serious problem with that happening. One ending, Sealed Siblings, literally has Horner permanently trapped in the Black Egg with the knight.

Black Souls, strictly speaking, is literally a Dark Souls 'parody' game.
It's got its gameplay mechanics and broader design structure, directly adapted to a 2D, turnbased RPG. Having a more original name would unironically be more dishonest. It's very much on purpose.
And Black Souls 2 adapts a ton from Bloodborne too.

It's less about spoilers in the sense of plot twists and more about wanting to enjoy the sense of the unknown. Part of the fun of exploring is not knowing what you'll encounter, and so the more you see in advance the less mystery there is, the more your imagination is constrained.
I've always disliked spoilers for this reason far more than anything to do with plot twists, so it always confuses me a bit when those are all people seem to talk about when the topic of spoilers comes up.

>>
>>719758890
No you have to edit it to show the correct amount of hours left
>>
>>719758805
the one thing that sucks about hollow knight is how it takes the dark souls lore approach
the story barely tells you anything, and to actually get exposure for any of the events you have to piece together all the lore breadcrumbs spread across random signposts or item descriptions
>>
>>719758721
I get that but unless you're sitting down and watching whole ass videos you'll have that sense of discovery in spite of seeing the name or screenshot of an area. Matter of taste and degrees I suppose.

Radio silent and it's not because of story spoilers
Hollow knight is best experienced blind on your first playthrough and anyone who says otherwise is an impatient person. The fun of HK is discovering the secrets yourself without any outside influence or anyone guiding you
I think people who blog post here or come to threads are impatient and don't want to take their time with the game
>>
>>719758980
Yeah seeing a screenshot of a boss or area I haven't visited isn't going to ruin the whole thing or anything, but the way I see it the more I find out the more weakened that sense of discovery will be. More about magnitude rather than a binary "ruined or not ruined" like how some people act around spoilers.
Added to that I know full well that I have shit willpower and will end up scrolling through threads or reading spoilered posts before I realise what I'm doing. Sometimes the best way to resist temptation is to avoid being exposed to it to begin with.
>>
>>719759213
I wouldn't call it impatience, I think there's something to be said about the sense of community surrounding experiencing a game for the first time together. I'm reminded of that post back when ER came out about how much fun someone was having sharing their findings with the brother than everyone got mad about. Bit different than a public forum, sure, but I just think it's another way to take these kinds of games, nothing really wrong with it.
>>
>>719759008
It starts off slow but after a few hours you get to a point where the game is basically discovering something new every 5 minutes nonstop and the game keeps going like that for a long while. The thing is the game is full of so many damn secrets you're very likely to miss half of them if you don't search for them. If you're not curious I really don't think this game is for you I really mean that. I remember hollow knight had me hooked like a drug the first time I played it.
>>

>>719759213
>I think people who blog post here or come to threads are impatient
Nah, that's uncharitable. Some of the comfiest threada I've ever participated in on /v/ were community threads for new games like Void Stranger and Animal Well, with anons sharing their discoveries and theories. But in this, I agree. Silksong is something I want to experience solo.
>>
>>719759028
I actually thought about this exact thing since they said silksong would have stuff about deepnest or whatever
>>
>>719759372
desu Crossroads is easily one of the lamest starting areas I've ever played through in a game.

>>719759601
I think games like ER and W3 benefit a lot from being front-loaded in their quality. Like, Stormveil Castle is the the best legacy dungeon in ER and the Bloody Baron is considered the best quest in W3 (though personally I think Hearts of Stone is better), this leads to a heightened perception of quality from game reviewers and casuals who only play maybe 8-10 hours leading to a contention of opinion for people who actually buckle down and finish the entire game.

The Radience exists in the Dream.
Godhome exists in the Dream.

When you kill the Absolute Radiance, you're actually killing the real thing. That's why the final cutscene shows Hornet confused as the infection disappears and the Hollow Knight stumbles out of the egg, finally free.
I hope this is the actual canon ending that Silksong carries on from, because the initial trailer for Silksong said "New Heroes" and it would be unfathomably fucking based if the Hollow Knight survived. A genuinely good ending.

I'm buying on GOG because that's where I bought hollow knight
>j-just pirate it!!
no lol team cherry are one of the few non dogshit devs in the industry they're getting my money whether they like it or not

I wish I could preorder just to show you the receipt.

In an age where triple A industries churning out pure slop routinely unionize to protect the jobs of 450+ makework parasites, I'll happily throw what money I can to fucking two dudes programming out of a garage.

>>719760715
Dude, it’s just 20$.
Not even skanky bitches are this cheap.

>>719760787
You're giving money to GOG and/or Steam, not Team Cherry. Just pirate the fucking game, and mail the devs a check if you really want to support them.

>>719760601
Yeah
>>
>>719760897
I'll track down where they live and put $20 under their pillows

In what fucking world do the devs of a game just not get any of the sales from GOG or Steam? Dont you think theyd stop selling on there if that was the case?

Any gamedevs on /v/ that also game while you make your games? Does knowing how the sausage is made affect your enjoyment of other games? Does being a gamedev suck the fun out of playing other games?
>>
>>719760990
Why would you even prefer Team Cherry to just get a fraction of the $20 instead of the whole thing? Both those "service providers" have enough money, they don't need any more. If you're truly pro-dev, send them money directly, like this guy wants to do. >>719760985

That's commitment right there.
