So you can talk about Silksong instead of playing it.
I have the dash and opened deep docks and beat the big red beast with the bone. where the fuck do I go now
>another fotm furshit """game""" to spam endlessly
>>719856572every game is fotm, shit bait
IS SHERMA A BOY OR GIRL
guess i can repost this here since subhuman /v/ suddenly shuts the fuck up once anybody makes an indepth point their melted brains cant easily reduce to a narrative:I literally had no problem with the diagonal pogo until this point, im confused theres something fundamentally wrong with the interaction here.I have a theory that theres a bit of delay before you pogo can actually come out after a successful pogo, for a successive pogo.another problem ive been running into is, the feeling that pogo should have priority, what i mean is that sometimes my pogo doesnt come out and I will land on an enemy instead of pogoing, I think that must be a problem either of the delay in pogoing, or theres no startup invincibility or something.why this is problematic?you can be doing the exact same inputs every time, with zero reason to think one wont suddenly work, and yet it can feel random. fixing this would make things more stable and consistent.this little miniscule thing should be justification enough on the basis of "challenge" theres suffient amount of punishing mechanics, this doesnt really add anything(when I talked about pogo delay, the problem isnt like basic nail attack delay, which can be made consistent simply by looking at the end of the attack and a return to stand still, with pogo, its much less clear, even when the pogo has ended, you may not actually yet be able to pogo, so what you end up doing, is pogoing a bit late to overcompensate and you can miss a pogo plant by a hair.)I like the demand of precision I just think there are some problems.Also Id still call this fairly basic platforming, there are still yet, no real "platforming" levels. But "platforming instances".If youve played Beyond Good and Evil I would compare it to the hover craft sections in that game. Yes there are instances where you use the hovercraft often, but yet it never really demands any moment to moment engagement beyond a single context if that makes sense.
How do you unlock the bench in Sinner's Road?
Just use the reapers crest and all of your problems will be solved
FUCKING FINALLY
>>719856337Never even touched Hollow Knight, but I like this bug
>>719856337SHE LOOKS LIKE SHE FUCKS HUMAN MEN
>>719856615>as soon as I noticed thisYou never noticed until I told you. Mindlessly accommodating to shit design without acknowledging it as such is not a skill. Having to adjust to the worse way of diving for every bounce is shit. Normal jumps allow you to turn around. Shouldn’t have made bounces work the proper way as a random chance, dumbass devs
>>719856337Woke
Does buying the rosary bead/shard bundle that merchants sell to empty up their stock do anything special?Or is it a waste of money?
>>719857167You can’t drop them on death.
>>719856941tutorial's over prepare your anus
>that one anon who was distraught about Skull Tyrant fucking up the camp and killing his friendoh no
>>719857218You aren't kidding, Jesus Christ.
>>719856572Yeah Hollow Knight sure was flavor of the month lol
I teared up a little when the cogwork dancer died and his buddy did his dance move but noone was there. Kino of the highest degree, and the fight was fucking amazing in general.
>>719856832You're typing a lot and saying very little. I don't have any issues with the pogoing - initially I thought it was imprecise (left/right switching, triggering it in the first place) but i switched to dpad and everything went awayRecord yourself showcasing your issues or stfu
WHY DOES EVERYTHING TWO HIT YOUWHAT THE FUCK
ive cleared 3 zones and im at the ant place but i feel like its going too fast they are pretty small though
>>719857167It's bundling them into a single non-losable-after-death item It's a cool idea but given the (my perceived) scarcity of beads, too expensive. Maybe if it cost 10
>>719857204>>719857521I know what they do, I'm asking if the merchant does something if you buy their last thing.Or are they infinite purchases?
>>719857515Protip. Dont go to the ant place.
>>719857662where should you go after getting the sprint?
>>719857662Then where do I go?
>>719856914Help please I fucking hate this elevator ride
>hate the diagonal down attack>all of the sudden I have a curved one which feels way better>now I no longer have it and it's back to the shitty diagonal onedid I miss something?is this some glitch or something?I fucking miss my curved attack
>>719857713>>719857720Lever in WorksYou passed it already
>>719857713If you have dash then right>>719857720Get dash
>muh diagonal pogoThe PC Master Race movement really needs a wakeup call. While yes, we've all been promoting usage of KB+M for a while, it's not the best for everything. Microsoft Windows, which you are using, also has compatibility with gamepads, including those made from Microsoft and third parties. For action games, using a controller doesn't mean you aren't a part of the PC Master Race. Diagonal jumping isn't nearly as hard as you make it out to be.
>>719857616After you buy everything else, she does say that she will move up. She still offers them indefinitely though
why can't zoomers just play new games without needing 30 threads to discuss them?
How do I leave Ventrica? I'm not having fun any more
>>719857746Bro your crests?
>>719857769I have the dash. to the right where? in docks?
do I need to play the first one before silksong?
I'm at the ant area about an hour and a half in. I'm just not having fun. Without the special feeling of discovering this little bug world for the first time, and having 100000 HK ripoffs come out in the last 7 years, it hyperfocuses all the problems. When I get stuck on a level and lose all my money and travel from a bench an entire map away over and over and over, I can get through it when I really want to keep exploring this world im seeing for the first time. In Silksong I've already seen this world more or less, so when I hit a die a few times I just get annoyed and want to stop playing. Is there a point where this changes and I go "oh, this game is new and fun and I want to push through difficult patches", or is it just more HK asking for 60 more hours of my time?
>bug does spinning attack twice in a row>four hearts goneWhat the actual fuck is this game design
>>719857936That's a lot of text just to say you're shit at video games.
>>719857904just watch a lore video, if you don't care about the lore then you can just playbut you will be missing a good gameAlso pirate it, just so you are sure that you will like it
>>719857936>hour an half in>exploring an area meant for 7 hours laterMaybe you are just low IQ
>>719857936DONT GO TO THE ANT AREA
>>719857949git gud
>>719857830thanks anon, I forgot I recently evolve a crest and it defaulted to the hunter one instead of reaper
>>719858009>>719858070>dont go to the area that is walking distance from the starting area and doesnt require any special abilities to get in towow, great game
>>719857936WHY DO YOU RETARDS KEEP GOING TO THE ANY AREA
>>719856914>>719857726Never mind, I figured it out. There's a hidden wall in the upper left corner of the room for anyone else wondering
>>719857949hahahaHAHHAHA hope you like them arenas
>>719858121Did you head to the Catacombs in Dark Souls first?
>>719858193I just suffered through the first oneFuck me what is this
>>719858121remember when people praised fromsoft and their skellingtons right beside firelink shrine?
>>719858121but enough about Deepnest
>>719858121you can go there if you want to, i did because i have the skills that pay the bills
>>719856337The fps in this are somehow better than hollow knight how did they do it
>>719858262Was wondering the sameHK had performance issues at release - even on good cards it had minor freezes. This game runs perfectly
>>719858142it feels like the natural place to go after getting the dash cause you can kill the boss that guards it now
>>719858431Or you could have pulled the lever you saw on your way down there.
>>719858374It runs better. Hk i got like 40 fps on shittop. on this i get 80 on it and 700 (lmao) on pc with 3060ti
>savage beastfly
>Beast has dogshit pogo attacks>place it in an area that requires pogo jumpsbravo TC
I'VE ESCAPED THE PIPES
>>719858573same place but i have no upgrades what have i done
which area vendor lets u upgrade pouch size
>>719858573oh my fucking GOD
It's interesting how Hunter's March is the first area you enter but you need to keep digging down through two other biomes to get character upgrades first before tackling the former.>>719858431Wtf is the ant area
how fucking big is act 1 jesus christ
>>719858667Is this inside the citadel
>>719858696You tell me
Wow, spooky.
>>719857796>video game discussion?? ON MY /V/!?!?!?
have they said how much DLC there will be? I'm on the fence about buying it now or waiting but the HK dlcs weren't massive so maybe I should just say fuck it and get it now
>>719858935lmao
Where the fuck is the map in Fields?
kinky
>>719856337Is this game's popularity legit or is there some weird kind of astroturfing psy-op going on? Why are people pissing and shitting themselves over this game leading to Steam server crashes?
I don't get it, what do these two do? I ain't seeing no bridge
>>719858143Thanks, I was trying to figure it out too
dashing is sex, holy fuck
>>719856337I get why the bosses got increased damage and health but doing the same for normal enemies made it just more annoying
Where is ANY attack power upgrade? I can't bear this weak ass nail, I'm after dash
>>719859134it;s a dinky bridge to the left
>>719859167Yeah you're closer to it nowStill a ways off thoughI recommend using your tools and silk powers a lot to compensate
>>719859167You'll get it after you free the bell town (and then another one when you do a quest in the bell town)
>>719859225>You'll get it after you free the bell townOh shit really? I'm past Sinner's Road and ignored the bell town
>>719859225how do I free bell town? I didn't see any obvious paths to do it
>>719859205yeah I see it now, you have to fast travel somewhere to reload the area
>>719856569Well to the right of red ant boss is a hard red ant area where you can platform and then fight a room full of tough enemies with the map lady helping you. I died 8 times trying it so I went back to the lava area deep docks and found a new ability going down right.Theres a door I could farm 500 beads to open under the vendor down there but I used some platforming skills and jumped to an area im not sure if there was another way to get to by pogoing off someones head in the next zone.Now I went far up and found a little village with slums and a memory thing hidden in the watery dark sewers. To my left is a little boss mothwing who I just fought once and died. I was doing pretty good at first I thought.I want to farm 500 for the key but the fastest way without exploring and never dying is probably near the starter zone running in a loop killing pilgrims for like +25 per loop which sucks
>>719859108woah he's pretty useful
>be me>go to ant area first>get dash sprint>game is actually fun now
>>719856337Is there actually anything in this game proportionate to the hype it's generated or is this a masterclass in marketing? Like come on, Hollow Knight is NOT that big man.
>>719859287Yes>>719859356Getting the wall jump and beating widow
playing through hollow knight for the first time, only at the very beginning. any tips? :)
>>719859114Its really good and cheap, but its not the second coming of Christ.It feels like a legit 9/10
I just reached act 2 from both paths and I still have the starting needle, did I miss an NPC to upgrade it or there's no way to make it stronger in act 1? The bosses gatekeeping act 2 took an eternity to beat and now every mob takes 5-6 hits to kill, did I miss something?
>going back to bone bottom after exploring weavenest atla>just want to chill and stuff and maybe end my play session for today and see what the little pilgrim has to say>A SECOND BONE TYRANT APPEARS OUT OF NOWHERE, TRASHES THE PLACE AND FUCKING KILLS LITTLE PILGRIM>Kill that motherfucker out rage>now the place feels emptier and colder somehowwhat fucking gut punch, holy shitI'm going to miss you little buddy...
Wtf man why was this so sad
>>719859616>>719859225
>>719859616Save the bell town and enter one of the buildings.Also some upgraded crests deal increased damage, try to open doors with music to find one of them
>>719856337I fucking despise the pogo. Where the fuck is the upgrade to pogo like a normal person.
>>719858715I knocked this bitch off the platform into the lava with a few attacks and a knife throw. She jumped out and I cant tell she even took extra damage
My nigga pale king would have loved this place
>>719859651I love how alive the game is
>naked hornethow is this allowed
>>719856337>Pay 30 beads to open a door>Go back to talk to some characters 1 meter away from the door>Door closes>Poor as fucking shit so I can't re-open itI swear, this game was designed by a jew. WHY AM I SO FUCKING BROKE ALL THE TIME.
was I supposed to unlock wall jumping by now? I reached bellhart
Why did this need to come back.
>>719859748change your crest to get a different pogo, the hunter crest pogo is absolute trash, but I think the reaper crest pogo is the best
>>719859849No
>>719859849Yeah soonishLeft of that area
>>719859852I'm not too into the journal this time because of the NPC you're doing it for. The Hunter was cool
Naked Hornet looks so fucking cursed. Like the Phantom Blot or something with a big helmet on.
Best area to farm money beads without dying too much?
>>719860045Yeah, same. The only NPC I like is the pilgrim girl. I love bug french.
>>719860170>>719860045I persobally like the journal just because we get hornets thoughtsBut yeah the huntress is a weird ass nigga
https://1337x.to/torrent/6476859/Hollow-Knight-Silksong-2025-PORTABLE/
>>719860221Haha wow you sure OWNED us!
my only complaint is that a lot of parts so far feel like "that part" you'll dread again during a second playthrough
>>719860351I think the only problem part ive seen is that forced 25 spines questBesides that everything else seems fine
I've decided I'm quitting because of the fucking birds. Fuck this. I'm not having fun at all. Diagonal attack ruined the gameplay.
Im being gaslit by fucking AI garbage(and guides written by AI)Where is that grapple hook/needle hook traversal move? Im a bit stuck and my only area without it is Greymoor which was said by the map NPC its very hard and should turn back(like deepnest in HK) No heavy spoilers, but anything ive googled says you just HAVE it but that doesnt seem the case.Holy FUCK I HATE AI.
>>719860463Literally just follow the path, anon.
are mask parts really that sparce or am I being an idiot that can't find the places where they are hidden?I'm one piece away from getting my first health upgrade and I already finished with the bellhart stuff
Hooray! I missed this guy at the beginning.
>>719860502so I DONT have that ability yet and just keep going with the map?
wtf is this?
>>719860558Nope, the game is just hard as balls.>>719860569Yes, correct.>>719860574LORE
>>719860574either lore or an objective for a future wish. been waiting for more lifeblood stuff, seeing the bug god in the Abyss was so kino
As someone who has never played anything Hollow Knight, can someone explain the hype? This looks like your average indie game to me.
Is there a way to increase attack speed? It‘s so slow
>>719856572>furI AINT NO FUR FAGGOTI AM A CARAPACE CHADIF THERES NO EXOSKELETONMY DICK STAYS SOFT SON
>>719860639good, simple, overflowing with soul and artistic direction
The what now?
>>719858715I beat this flamboyant dyke on my first try
>>719859412>I want to farm 500 for the key but the fastest way without exploring and never dying is probably near the starter zone running in a loop killing pilgrims for like +25 per loop which sucksCheat Engine
>>719860268
>>719860639>can someone explain the hype?Previous game very fun, so sequel also very fun most likely.
I got walljump but I heard of people getting doublejump first, are the upgrades nonlinear?
I feel like this game is gonna be awful to replay from the beginning. Wish there was ng+ but that‘s probably not happening
>weavenest atla>weavenest c-(something)there's gotta be a weavenest b somewhere
>>719860639Autismos liked it and then normalfags like watching lore stuff of that game
>>719860685RETURN IT
>>719860676>>719860728>>719860781Will I still enjoy this if I'm not really a fan of non-linear games and disliked Metroid?
I wonder how much longer before there will be true ending guides
>>719860805No one can say but you.Just pirate the game first, then buy it to support the devs if you like it.
I CANT HIT THIS FUCKING BIRD WITHOUT TAKING CONTACT DAMAGE FUCK YOU
>lets lock a boss encounter behind a intense platforming segment where you have to pogo and cloak float, lets cover it with spikes and also not put a bench nearby>your reward is money that you will inevitably not use in a shop because literally everything charges you to do anything for some reasoni dont need to git gud to see how this shit fucking sucks.its like they've simultaneously gone forwards and backwards in their game design.there is going to be no point in fighting optional bosses.
>>719860817I'm 12 hours in and the game just keeps fucking going
>>7198608172-3 days
Anyone here playing the game on Switch? I really wanna pick the game up on Switch so I can play it in bed, but with how hard the game apparently is I'm afraid the joycons are gonna be too shit to play properly.
Not too sure how I feel about the game so far. I'm enjoying it well enough, but if I started with Silksong, I feel like I might not. While I 112%ed and beat PoH, it's been quite a while, and it feels a bit awkward to play at points. But I still want to keep going, so clearly it's doing something for me.
>>719860805Depends on what you mean by non-linearity, there's many ways a game can do it. By hollow knight's example (and silksong's so far) there are literally signs with arrows that lead you toward the main objective. The only time it isn't consistent is if you need an upgrade to follow them, and even then it's not far off.
o7
Do I need to beat sister stinker or whatever the fuck her name is if I want to get wall jump? It's 3am, and I'm tired, and she's kicking my ass, and no I will not go to sleep.
>>719861010Yes. She's one of the easier bosses.
>>719860862flying enemies and contact damage in general in this game are somehow worse than HK, maybe because of Hornet's huge fucking model
>>719860967play your violin there
>>719860949to me it feels as if the first 6 or so hours suck.im hoping the game gets better the more moves you unlock, i think its built around having a fluid combat system but when it gives you jack shit to work with outside of pogo's the rougher aspects of hit stun and bosses killing in two hits shows.
Reddit: The Game
>>719860938Do people actually use the switch joycons? They‘re so tiny i immediately got bigger third party ones
THIS GUY IS MY NEW FAVORITE BUG
I haven't played the first hollow knight in years, was there as many traps in that game as there are in Silksong or did the developers decide to put so many traps now?
>>719861129>you can break it
>>719861030She's the first one I'm having trouble with. The ant dude, moorwing, and the big fly in the beast chapel all only took me a handful of tries, but sphincter slicker is really fuckin me up man.
>>719860862manged to avoid contact damage by jumping in front of it and attacking horizontally instead of standing underneath it and hopping to hit it. less damage but oh wellhornet definitely has less range than the knight and you don't get mark of pride early (as far as i can tell)
>>719859456Go to the left first after going down the well.
>>719861203There's a crest that gives you pretty good range but you attack slower. It's just above that boss actually.
>>719858247Deepnest was a much better area than hunters march. I got stuck there without the lantern and had some of the best time in my playthrough exploring without a map and trying to escape.
>>719861160No, the falling rocks and bells are almost kaizo tier
So now that the game has released can someone tell me if I need to play hollow knight? is this a prequel or a sequel
>>719861251Hunters March isnt Deepnest anywayIts more like Mantis Village except no cool Mantis Lords fight
>Get past Hunter's Marsh trial and wonder wtf I'm supposed to do>Backtrack a little>Get the fucking throwing dagger>Ge the dash ability>Game all the sudden feels like an entirely new fucking game now and I realize I wasn't supposed to do Hunter's Marsh yetlol. Dash turns this game upside down. It's a "The castle flips inverse" moment where you realize how much more the game opened to you.
>>719861160Silksong is Hollow Knight: hard mode.
>>719861203Should've summoned the guy to help you too.
>>719861265The “story“ is some stupid souls shit again. You probably wouldn‘t know what‘s going on even if you played hollow knight
>>719861327It's not even hard.
>>719861265Sequel. There aren't many callbacks so far, all you need to know is that Hornet is half weaver (spider) half god/wyrm
>>719861265It has always been a prequel.Primarily because the devs didn't want to lock in a "cannon" ending for Hollow Knight.
the game just feels too much like HK. it doesn't have any noticeable improvement. I am disappointed. I can't even say the graphics are much better. I played HK just the other day and honestly it felt a more or less on par.
>>719861358>>719861449Yes, yes, we get it. Can you go shit up some other thread?
>>719856337Widow's second phase is gigafiltering me.
>>719861381Not a sequel anon - just because the greater lore is maintained across both games does not mean that Silksong takes place after Hollow Knight.
>>719861497She's nothing compared to what you'll be encountering later lmao
The music has largely just been whatever so far, not bad at all, even good. But HK's music was something special...
I want to go to sleep but everyone will be so far ahead of me...
>>719861515Can you fuck off already?
>>719861338
>>719861497What helped me on the second phase ie kinda ignoring the bells and just keeping my eyes focused on her the whole time. I was able to beat her after that.
Why hello there
has anyone found a zone called the mist yet? i found it behind a hidden wall in the top corner above a hazard in a new zone (sinner's road). from what i understand so far falling off the edge puts you back at the start and the zone is randomized
>>719861543The marrow was shockingly good to me
>>719861543Really? The only music track in HK thats as good as the ones here is City of Tears.
Does hunters march even have anything useful to find? Diagonal pogoing is filtering me.
I lost 500 rosaries again, and now I'm mad. How could this happen to me?Also fuck ants, that's all.
>>719861604And now I wish I had jotted down those blue orb locations.
>>719856337so is it good enough to win all the awards
starting the game with act 1 is exciting but act 2 is really lame once you realize its just more of the same
The fucking weapon is too small i hate needing to be inside my opponents asshole to deal damage to them
>>719861667It's too hard for journos.Also they love love LOVE E33 and votes are 90% jury.
>>719861667Depends on if you think its better than Expedition 33. Personally I say no but I know a lot of people will disagree with me.
Ok, why the fuck are Steam andies bitching about the difficulty? I'm pretty sure many of the required bosses in HK demanded more than a dad gamer can handle. People already should've developed their skillset for Silksong.Two bosses gave me trouble, currently dealing with Greymoor bird. I'm blasting biomes no problem. Is it dementia?
>>719861543Audio in general has come across weird to me. Feels like Hornet has 2 different voice actors, the one from Hollow Knight and some 50-60 year old chick. Some of the sfx sound like stock sfx you would snag from a gamedev asset pack, although most of its clearly original.Just feels weird.
>>719861667It is too fucking hard lmaoAlso its not melodramatic story slop like E33
>>719861698It was the same in HK anon.
Anons im stuck , found bellhart, explored all of shellword and the wormways but I cant progress. I think I need a double jump or wall climber ability, where do I go??. Ive explored all of hunters march save the very top part and chapel of the beast because fuck that, all of farfields, deepdocks and grey moor I can't figure it out
>>719861719>why is everyone complaining about the difficulty?>also i'm at the baby bitch boss
>>719857373This is also my issue, I am forced to play with the dpad, if I am playing normally and there is no platform I go back to the stick, also one of the annoying thing is the deep pit fall for no reason, the first time you go to the first town there is a pit to the left if you fall it takes you to the first area of the game, and there is other example like this, don't remember if the first game ever had something like that though.
>>719861719>I'm pretty sure many of the required bosses in HK demanded more than a dad gamer can handleYou can beat many of them just by hammering attack
where is the grapple hook. Just say the map area name
So I didn't even fight the greymoor fly that anons have been bitching about, did I break something?
>>719861646The ant merchant (sells boomerang and broken mask item)And a crest that isn't very good locked behind an optional boss thats annoying (you need the float cloak for this)
How is she a spider with only 4 limbs?
>>719861719I think a lot of people assumed that Silksong would drop the difficulty from Hollow Knight. Hollow Knight became *the* metroidvania of the generation so making Silksong easier for more mainstream appeal made people assume things. Instead it assumes you cleared everything in Godmaster lmao
>>719861807FOLLOWTHEFUCKINGPATH
>>719861817Alright I should explore some other place for now, thanks.
>>719861815You can skip it by doing the flea quest
>>719861760Pogo off the while flowers left of bellhart, there will be a boss. Will give you the wall climb
>>719861838What area is that? Is it connected to the hunters march
>>719861178Save your silk skills for the adds so you kill them fast and jump her slashes as they are ground explosions, also her swipes break her plant walls, you can also break them.
>>719861895NOTHE ANT AREA IS OPTIONALWHY THE FUCK IS EVERYONE BASHING THEIR HEADS AGAINST IT
>full body permanently active contact hitboxes
>>719861893The splinter sister? I killed her and she dropped nothing
>>719861876yeah that's what I did, well shit, does the fly drop something useful tho?
>>719861169that's fucked up
>>719861919nta but how are we supposed to know it's optional, lmao.
I still don‘t understand why they added quests instead of having them happen naturally in the world
>>719861921Follow the path it's after that
>>719861920>NOOOO WHY CAN'T I RUB RIGHT AGAINST EVERYTHING WHY DO I HAVE TO PLAN MY MOVEMENT IN THIS MOVEMENT PLATFORMER
>>719861920>enemy ignores knockback>enemy also does 2 masks contact dmg
>>719861919Why is everyone pretending that hunter's march is difficult? I beat everything in it before I even got the fucking floaty cape (obviously barring the areas you need the floaty cape to get into)
>>719861606I stepped one foot in it and died in the first room
>>719861957>how are we supposed to knowGeez, I don't knowMaybe by dying 20 times in a row?Or encountering enemies that take eight fucking hits?
What the ever living hell is this fucking thing what the fuck the original game didn't have anything like this
>>719856337>haha cute bugs talking, and everyone is nice, hahamillennials must be genocided. It's the only way to save gaming.
>>719861959Anon you don't have to go out of your way to do quests they'll just resolve naturally as you explore.
>>719861957Nigger the first fight there is a huge dude that deals two masks of damage every swing
>>719861129Who?
So I got the floaty power and the dash. Where the fuck do I go next?
>>719861768>>also i'm at the baby bitch bossHow far do I need to be in the game before I reach the same point these Steam andies stopped 30 minutes in.>>719861821I didn't even do the Pantheon. I just started HK back up a couple days after normal end and did some dream bosses. I stopped after upgrading my nail and never finished the rest.Nothing in the first couple areas demand much from players and people's gripes seem to be centered entirely on the divekick (which people don't know you can swap out)
>>719861989That guy is actually based off of cut content from Hollow Knight, which is why the original didn't have anything like it
I like the idea of putting the higher difficulty ant zone in the middle of much easier areas. There’s some jumps in there that are difficult but doable without even unlocking the dash. One I remember in the room with the wind current you can just barely to jump up and around the lip of the platform above you without unlocking the air current ability.
>>719861974Not everyone has played 50k hours of video games like you have.>>719862007Lever in the Works. Leads to a boss.>>719862016>How far do I need to be in the gameFirst actual challenge is Widow. Then comes Last Judge who is at Nightmare Grimm level.
>>719861919>>719861985WHAT THE FUCK IS HARD ABOUT HUNTERS MARCH YOU TOURIST>>719861997>Nigger the first fight there is a huge dude that deals two masks of damage every swingThat's every boss retard
>>719861997two masks of damage is the new normal though
>>719861995I still hate ubishit design like this being in the game
>>719861838where the fuck is it.
>>719856337Too much walking. It's a 2d game but feels like an open-world game.
>>719862007Backtrack but not all the way to the Docks. Take the wind currents ALL the way up.>>719862042The retards bitching on Steam haven't even made it out of Hunter's March
>>719862042>Nightmare Grimm levelhe is one of the last bosses right...?
>>719862089Metroidvanias are just semi open world games
>>719861820shes half spider
any real gamers here?holy fuck this second act is aids so far
WHERE THE FUCK IS THE GRAPPLE HOOK JUST FUCKING SAY THE MAP HOLY FUCKING NIGGER SHIT.
>>719861687act 2 is literally fucking kino though, it's like the city of tears but even better
>>719862107Who, Nightmare Grimm? I'd place him as the seventh hardest boss in Hollow Knight.If you're talking about Last Judge, they're the final boss of the prologue.
>>719862107yeslast boss of act 1 :^)
>>719862148TUUUUUUUBES
>>719862152>city of tears but even betteryeah surefrom where i'm standing it's cramped, ugly, full of annoying traps, and every enemy is a flying nigger on crack
>>719862198much like the city of tears, minus the traps
>>719857373I use D-Pad exclusively in Hollow Knight. It is the most precise way to play consistently short of using an octagonal gate controller like the GCN or a fight stick.
Does it run well on the switch? Does anyone know?
>Hunter's March>Moorwing>Widow>Last JudgeWho is the Act 1 filter?
>>719862226at least city of tears looked prettythis stupid factory area looks like the inside of satan's asshole
>>719862034Well at least his moves are clearly telegraphed, more of a spectacle fight really
>>719862236The first game's Switch port sucked dick. There's your answer.
Will requesting aid fuck something up, or is it required for a quest?
>>719862248Sorry im in act 2 but who is moorwing?
>>719862250Get past the underbelly, that part was kinda ass until you get to where the other choruses are stored, which you have to get to through different areas
So Memory Lockets are really limited? I'm not sure what to even spend them on
>>719862092Thank you. I somehow missed the top area and wandered around everywhere else.
>>719862248last judge, undoubtedly.not only is he the absolute worst kind of boss where he spams moves that take up the entire screen and force you to sit there and do nothing until he decides to let you actually play the game, he also takes one fuckzillion hits to actually take down so the fight is like 6 minutes long.and on top of all that he has the unquestionably worst runback so far.
>>719862248Last Judge, easy. What a retarded fucking boss.
>>719861919Because I wanted to be cool. I died like 20 times, but it was worth it (it wasn’t)
>people keep bitching about a big bird in greymoor>never once met himDid you fuckers not do the flea quest?
>>719862124Naah, Hollow Knight didn't have that much walking.
>This many people skipped MoorwingSidequests were a mistake
>>719861974Floaty cape is about the time you should be doing ant zone. Ant zone is hard but doable even before unlocking dash. That’s the hard part, beating it without dash.
I seriously have no fucking idea if im lost or fucking what.>did everything I can seem to do.>at greymoore.>the fucking bird gauntlet is hard as fuck>the actual bird is even harder>not even FUCKING SURE IF I SHOULD BE HEREIs this game just way harder than HK? Like I fucking hate how I cant tell if im somewhere to hard, or if its skill issue in this. I already did everything else including hunting grounds up until greymoore.
>>719862384Moorwing is a huge filter.I think its fine to let new players be able to safely get past him.
doing this every time i die to last judge is making my fucking hands hurt
>>719862372Its even worse than that, I found greymoor from the left side before finishing the flea quest and a boss never spawned there. So 2/3 of the ways to greymoor skip the boss
>>719858935>i must spam 50 threads per hour because I have adhd and nobody will remember it after a weekfate of every FotM
>>719862423Just git gud grandpa
>>719862423Holy fuck lmao
>>719862349Do these do good damage?Also, what does the NPC near where these are found need?
https://files.catbox.moe/myavdi.mp4
>>719862414Honestly the worse part of the bird is getting hit for two bars on every single move. He's just threatening when you're in kill range really fast.
>>719858684The 100% speedrun trophy is "beat the game in under 30 hours". 30 hour speedrun! This game has to be fucking massive
>>719861914I'll try her again in the morning with this advice. Thanks anon.
>>719862482Anon, the game devs barely know coding. They are 90% artist, 10% devs.
>>719862509yeah but, am I actually in the proper area?I swear HK and now this give fucking AWFUL feedback for this shit. It was my 1 fucking gripe in HK and its back in this. Its never an issue like this in Metroid/Castlevania.
>>719862476NTA but you don't get it form an NPC, you craft it yourself. I don't remember where it was though sorry. As for damage, I'm only at Act 1 but it's the second best after spike trap.
>>719862540?misquote?
>>719862482Every day she's shufflin'Ree dee dee ee byoo dabooh, ryee ee ee ee shkoo cadoo
>>719862423there must be a secret bench somewhere........
> Posting in threads filled with non-spoilered content> Post vague reference to event that *can* happen in the game> Get thisFuck this place.
>>719862372>skipping bosses tranny behavior
>>719861757No it fucking wasnt, they made it smaller
>>719862414>not even FUCKING SURE IF I SHOULD BE HEREthere are two ways to get to the next required areaone of them is to go through the shitfuck bird so yeah you're in the right place
>>719862606Very unfair.
where does merchant in bone bottom go?
>>719862649Well, taking her at her word when she leaves, shes headed to the Citadel.
>>719861606 (me)>>719861979i figured it out. find a pack of the floating bugs and play music. they lead you to the correct door. go through 5 zones, where the last 2 have more traps and enemy spawns. doing all this will lead you to the exhaust organ
>>719862606I don‘t remember the last time people got warned for posting spoilers inside of threads. Jannies must be hyped for silksong
>>719862617Are you sure you're not confusing it with the charm upgrade in HK? Granted I don't remember how small the base nail is.
who puts the HARDEST FUCKING BOSS FIGHT IN THE GAME after a jumping puzzle this fucking precise? I've only made it up here five times in an hour. How the fuck do they expect casuals to do this? It's like they're playing a fucking joke on the entire industry.
>>719862687Thanks for sharing anon
>>719862517Wasn’t the hollow knight equivalent of this achievement like 10 hours?
>>719862624okay, so Silksong is just straight up harder than HK and more skill. Good to know honestly.
This is the Hollow Knight audience.
>Team Cherry's favorite games are Faxanadu and Zelda 2THIS EXPLAINS EVERYTHING
HUNTER'S MARCHWHAT THE FUCK?GIVE ME A BENCH
The Beeg slow nail crest is so fucking good, I love the down pogo with it. It feels very weighty.
>>719856337I hope that she doesn't die in the ending. Or at least, that she survives in the true ending that I assume exists.
How do I recharge the tools with reserve in them? Do I have to go back where I got them? Because if that's the case then fuck that I ain't going back to the middle of nowhere.
Keep losing all my fucking beads.
>>719862823Go down anon
>>719862865Just equip them and sit down at a bench
>>719862423O refuse to believe people actually enjoy running through a tedious platformer every time they die>b b b but there's a secret bench just beneath the bugs anus on the other side of the map!Ut makes things even worse.
>>719862757Nope, 20 hours
Are people retarded?You can heal midair.
Is it just me or are there no fucking silver bells for that one quest
Where do I go near the beginning after finding map lady? Northeast there's a giant bug behind webs I can't cut fast enough, east the path is blocked by a gate, slightly southeast is a big room with lava I can't float over, west past the acid-spitting nigga is a door I'd need 500 rosaries to unlock.
>>719856337silksong is a poor man's project nortubel
I was excited about getting the longpin, but then oh wait it turns out it's fucking useless
i dont remember the exact path but the ability to cut through those webs is pretty goddamn close to where they are
What the fuck was Fourth Chorus?That was the platformer equivalent of "insert boss here"
new bugfu?
>>719862985EDGELORD
>>719862984The point was it was in the old trailer I guess.
>>719856337Stop replacing male characters with females.Now.
>>719862975It just needs to do more dmg
hunter's march has me questioning things
>>719862897Are you sure because unless I'm going schizo the reserve gets used up on the bench, once the reserve runs out it can't be recharged on the bench anymore.
Is this just here to troll people or can you actually disable the trap?
>>719862985THE PHANTOMEXTERIOR LIKE FISH EGGS
>>719862975It's decent w/ the poison charm
4 attempts.
>>719863047walk left
>>719863021It's so stupid too when it has such limited uses too. What, it can't even kill the HK equivalent of a bat?
>>719863058IS THAT A PERVERT PEEPER
TwT
>>719863047Go to the left, there's a switch hidden to turn the trap off
I have no idea if I should be impressed or baffled by Team Cherry for making Silksong way harder with barely ayny QoL knowing so many more casuals are going to play this.
>>719863109. . . so that's what that did?I didn't even bother to try it again because I had already gotten hit by it twice.
>>719863091I love the little singing dude so much
>>719863091i never met him/her after the first gatenot sure if i did anything wrong
>Sinner's Road bench is out of orderoh m8 you fucking WATThis place is aids and you don't get a fucking bench?
>>719863138The point is that they get money before you start the game, not when you finish it.
>>719856337Hollow Knight had charm Synergy's - has anyone found something similar in Silksong yet?
>>719863109Wtf you can disable it? I'll have to go back and do that on the full clear.
>>719862125
whats the strat for the scissor niggas
>>719862823Why is everything in this fucking game as hard as the Trial of the Fool?
>>719863179top left corner of the room is breakable, now go through a giga aids platforming gauntlet to get the bench you fucking paid for lmao
>>719863210those are the easiest enemies i've faced desu
FARI DULA SIMANET*DING*DONI PUANA VORINET*DING*PINA SOMI MANISET*DING*DANA FONSYU LOBO*DING*
>>719863210PogoPogoUhhhPogo
>>719863210i just spammed pogo until they diedthey can't hit you in the air so if you just chain pogo eventually they go down
>>719863251>>719863267naruhodo
>>719863248porn when?
You know what I just realized after getting into Act 2?I'm pretty sure Silksong was built to EXPLICITLY fuck with Hollow Knight players who only played the game using the nail, Mark of Pride, Quick Slash, and Quick Focus.
It's cute how the npcs sing if you play the violin next to them
>>719862875i don't have double jump or whatever the equivalent isi can't find a bench
>>719862726You've got to remember that this game was originally meant to be a post-game DLC for the original Hollow Knight. Technically, most people playing Silksong should already be acquainted with how difficult the White Palace was and fighting the Radiance is.
is hunters march or left side of greymoor intended path?
>>719863308I have not seen a single NSFW worthy character outside of Hornet.I'm still in act 1 tho
>>719863363bro, your lace?
>>719863312Basically, it's to punish them for choosing the "cheesy" way out instead of being more varied with their playstyles.
>>719863232It ended up being not that bad, thought I had checked the wall but I must've just been short
>>719863312
>>719863396Oh, I forgot about her, Because I wasn't irritated by her boss fight
Hunter's March and both sides of Greymoor are fucking impossible, what the fuck do I do.
>>719863312and thats a good thing!
>>719863312After 100 hours of godhome it‘s so hard to adjust to the god awful attack speed in silksong
>>719863352hunters march is purely optionalthe greymoor bird is progress
>>719863312GreatI found it weird how some people barely used the strong as fuck spells in hk
>>719856337What should silksong fanatics complain and moan about until it becomes a reality now?Half Life 3?
>>719863352Hunter's March, climb down in big vertical room to the new area.Grab character upgrade from that biome, go down left to another new area and grab the upgrade there too. Then you climb back up the map with both of your new upgrades.
>>719863413You need to start using your imagination, then, because the likes of Lace, Sherma, and Shakra are as porn-worthy as can be.
>>719863424Either this guy specced entirely into lifeblood to have 13+ masks, or he thinks the Hollow Knight is the final boss.Either way, not the smartest feller, but probably a decent fartest smeller
>>719863312>Tfw beat Pantheon of Hallownest with the pets build because I didn't want take my boy grimm child off.
>>719863413>use more varied playstyles!>btw all of the tools we are giving you are also resource-limited so if you use them actively you WILL run out and then have to grind for morefuck right off with that shit, man. i ran out of shards against last judge, used my backup shard bags, and then ran out again. had to kill him with just the nail, so the kunai was useless in the end.
>>719863453right side of greymoor isnt progressing into shit anyways im also in the moorwing stuck + hunters march which i didnt explore much yet not sure which is better idea
>>719863539PARRYSLOP REEEE
>>719863539Reminder if you used the parry or the crest that lets you pogo easier you DID NOT beat the game.
>>719863312Joke's on them, I haven't used a single tool so far.
>>719863546The trick with Radiance isn't lifeblood, it's Carefree Melody
>>719863610Pressing up + rb is so unintuitive. At least in castlevania it‘s up + attack which made sense
>>719863495need to save my soul for healing
>>719863496It's time for the Espiocracy community to go insane.All three of them, at least.
>>719862823Yeah sorry the maggot swamp is literally 50000 times worse in this regard
>>719863363Obviously, you haven't met Shakra yet.
>>719863495probably because the spells they give you at first are complete dogshit compared to the nail and they also cost your healing resource on top of thatthey only really get good when you can stack a bunch of spell charms and get the upgraded spellsi completely wrote spells off until godhome and i'm sure many others did the same
>>719863185Pollip Pouch has several strange interactions but in terms of synergy synergy, this game isn't really built like HK
Do you actually need a controller? From memory I played the first game with kb and that was fine
Hunter's March arena and Craw arena are fucking killing me. Every time I think it HAS to be the last round of enemies they throw out another.
Apparently Steamies are getting filtered on two move, "hug the boss" Bell Beast.Did HK attract the Stardew crowd or what?
yeah this game is pretty good
How does the map feel compared to HK? As big? Smaller? Bigger?
>>719863789How many areas have you found so far?
>>719863651SOTN also had motion inputs.>>719863796>
uhhhdoes the stupid moorwing have no fucking benches near?i only have the one near the trailer slapped bug
>Gravelord Nito is actually great design and walking back to the boss is super fun
i'm looking for the bomb reviews on steam the next few days unless TC release the "balance" patch soonthere are no summon here unlike elden ring
>>719863796it's hugebut it's also fucking aids to traverse which makes the hugeness a negative
>>719863806I haven't been keeping track but 10-11 I think
>>719862423How do you have the normal pogo??
>>719863757it's fine if diagonal inputs aren't too hard for you
i got my healing interrupted by falling off a ledge, which i guess is unintended
>>719863796Fucking auto mode.Anyways there's alot more biomes this time around so it definitely feels bigger. Especially since you can easily wander into certain ones very easily.
i feel like everywhere i go i need some i frame dodge for to even stand a chance this game is a bit unfun brehs…
>>719863861crest you can get by going back to starting area with claw
>>719856337>Moorwing's second phaseFUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF
>>719863812if you're coming from the bench above the arena that's the closest you're gonna getif you're coming from the east then go around
>>719863683What's that? You want to heal? Fuck you, your silk is draining, tick-tock bitch. And no, you don't get to heal until you waste a whole spool getting these little fuckers off.
>>719863896you're thinking of wanderer crest the webm has reaper crest
>>719863835>there are no summon here unlike elden ringI beg your pardon?
>>719863901from the marrow?i cant get there i think need claws or some climb shit
>>719863928I'm not clicking on anything in the thread, idk why that guy would think reaper creast is a normal pogo
>>719863883while I disagree that it's unfun, I can see how someone who did a leisurely single playthrough of HK would really struggle with this one
Game is pisseasy when you realize you can heal midair and it stops you in place
>Act 3OH SHIIIIIIIIIIIT
>>719863939nigger what the FUCK? Where do you see him first, I didn't find him until sinners path
>>719863972i did godmaster and i'm still struggling with some of these fightslast judge in particular was a real asspain
>Hunter's March>Lets put fucking pressure plates in that are obscured by foreground nonsense>Also lets hide away the chairi hope these cunts get bit by boxies
They didn't have to erase Shaman Stone like this...
>>719864025I think I may unironically get filtered by Last Judge.
>Just found the crestDear GOD that is such a change. I can finally play the game like it was intended.>Each crest has its own upgrade path and you need memories for each of themFor what purpose. >Threading beads costs you 20 beadsMan what the fuck.
My first big negative is the new charm system.>HK, every new charm slot is fucking huge>I capped out my Crest, and now all my lockets are fucking worthlessYou can't swap Crests mid combat like a Style, so what the fuck is the point of limiting us so much?
>>719863972I did everything in HK except I couldn't beat Nightmare King Grimm and didn't bother with the last couple boss rushes.I'm still having a miserable time. The combat just grates on me so much it just makes me want to go back to Nine Sols.
I like it more than HK so far, the pacing is 10 times better, every area has some new gimmick, trap or mechanic
>>719864075>Man what the fuck.Thank you for supporting the local bugman economy! *rubs hands*
>>719864075The bead economy makes no sense. HK never needed grinding this bad.
>>719864084Pissing the player off.
>>719864095>reskinned flying enemy #16634
>>719864075i lost 300 beads to the combat arena in hunter's march...
>>719864084Well I guess it's good to know there's extra
>>719862984It’s a setpiece boss, he looks cool, music is cool and the way you finish him off is also kino
>>719864095I get and empathize with the complaints but I am I not lying when I say Silksong has been so much more fun so far.There were BARELY any areas in HK that actually threatened you and this was exacerbated by how open ended it wad after wall jump.Silksong will routinely try to push your shit in whenever possible and that's fantastic.
>>719864084the new system really does feel shitty, yeah. a ton of the charms i have are just never going to get used because i have two slots for yellow charms and they're both permanently taken up by the magnet and compass charms which i have basically no reason to ever remove.
That knigth that helps you during battle with flying boss apparently resets when you the restart game and I killed boss myself first try this morning after which he is nowhere to be seen, did I miss out on some quest/reward from him because I didn't ask him for help?
>>719864084This is what i thought tooI expected the crests to be swappable like stylesMaybe ill just wait for a mod for that
Kino.
I got to the Greymoor area with the flea caravan, is the bird boss I keep reading about going to appear eventually or did I miss him?
>>719864095>I like it more than HK so far, the pacing is 10 times betterHow the fuck? By ten hours into HK I was at City of Tears with several nice upgrades. Ten hours into Silksong I have jack shit, I've been nowhere interesting, and every boss except Lace has been ass. But really great that they keep showing me locked doors and saying "maybe you could go somewhere cool if you grind out 500 beads to buy a key!"
>>719864256Flea quest gets rid of the boss.
>>719864182I lost 300 beads to the fucking bird arena and another 200 to Hunter's March.
>>719864256yeah, you missed him. the flea caravan moves to his arena and then you're locked out of the fight.but it's not a big loss, he's a really shitty "big flying enemy that just charges you over and over" type of fight.
>>719862726>casualsMate I don't think Team Cherry cares about casuals you either take the bugpill or you don't
>>719864302Does he drop anything
>>719864302did he have any rewards?
>>719864320nope. all he does is guard the door to the west.
>>719862950Go left from the room with the trapped big bug. Go up. Get the ability to free him.
after getting the parachute dress thing, are there places to use it back in the marrow/deep docks? i know there's stuff up in hunter's march, but i don't want to hunt around for vents if there aren't any in these zones.i'm keeping notes now on shit that i'll obviously have to come back to.
>>719864320Did any boss drop anything at all? Not counting big thing in a secret room at the start
where the fuck are the mossberries there can't be just 4 right
>my nephew is in act 2 and has so far found the game fun and had little trouble with it>meanwhile I kept dying to moorwing and still havent beaten the judge Bros... I got fucking MOGGED by a 12 year old...
>>719864368Your nephew is a lying sack of shit.
>>719864368The fight really isn't that hard once you get the hang of it. There's only like 4 attacks that you need to learn to counter.
hmmm today I will play silksong>die to ants>or die to bird boss>or grind 500 coins for the key to get royally disappointedGOTY
How long does it take to kill the vomiting bug on the roof in the top left of the starting bone village? I was wacking him one poke at a time for like 3 min then died. Did I almost kill it or should I go back there when I have stronger attacks?
Castlevania is way better game
>>719864348thanks bud, not sure how I missed that
>act 1 mask upgrade barely matters when Last Judge can kill you in three hits anywayCancer. I would make it so that only the fire attacks in the second half do double damage.
>>719864416>grind 500 coinsby the time I got to the key door I had a bunch of necklaces I just popped them all
>>719864453even Aquaria is a better game
>>719864416Use your key on the left side of the map, the reward is better
I've seen people complain about diagonal pogo hopping. you DO know that you can sequence break into the area left of bone bottom in the first ~2 hrs to get a crest that gives you the straight downward attack? wanderer, I think it's called, can't check rn
>>719864416This is where I am. I think I'm just gonna put the game down.
>>719864253Hoorah and up she rises
>Don't really enjoy Hollow Knight at all>Grew out of watching vtubers pretty quickly>Had fond memories of watching Ina from Hololive playing through the original around lockdown period>She's streaming thisI feel like such a faggot for both watching a youtuber and experiencing some popular flavor of the month thing in this way, but I hope this will be as comfy as my memories. I'll make an exception just this once.
HUNTERS MARCH IS IMPOSSIBLE NOBODY HAS BEATEN IT YET
>>719864450Way too long for the shittiest reward known to mankind. I'm pretty sure you're supposed to have some kind of upwards spell or something because he's just a punching bag.
Which way, white man?
>>719864302>You can miss a bossIs he the one that looks like a bat?I'm currently in the greymoor area and I don't want to miss it. Haven't found a map for the area yet.
>>719864365i found another one but they really don't give you all that much. better off killing dudes, imhotbh
>>719864450Just avoid him, the room doesn't lock up
>>719864450you're supposed to hide from his attack under the platforms, in case you aren't doing it for a challenge
>>719864594just don't talk to the flea caravan guys until you make it to the bell area and you're fine
>>719864365There's at least six
>>719864593evolved version of the default crest, obviously
>>719864560I did. Pogoing isn't that hard you just need to not mash it and wait for like half a second before the next one because she lags and doesn't fully rise when you get off a bounce.
>>719864593Reaper is pretty cool. I don't think anyone is using the beast one, that downslash is so ass lmao
>>719864639Too late, already did and got 4 out 5.
Heads up. Moorwing isn't missable by the way.You can avoid him early game with the flea quest but he comes back.So if you don't want to get assfucked by an early midgame fight then just do the quest.
How does it compare to the first game?
Do I do the bell area or worm area first?
>>719864450the "reward" is an item that gives you like 120 shards. not even remotely worth it
>>719864675Not just the downslash, the way stitching works with beast is also absolute fucking trash.
i think pic related is probably the best bug i've met so far
>>719864595where I got the flying one near the elevator and it's pissing me off because he said it wasn't fresh
>>719864593i've just been using reaper all gamewanderer is cool in theory but in practice every boss is just "run in, poke once, run out" so the faster attack speed is meaninglessbeast is garbage
>>719864693Harder and way more involved across the boardBut also less somber and melancholicNothing so far matches City of Tears in tone
>>719864714"intended" path would be bell first, idk how much it matters though
>>719864714The most wholesome pilgrim
>>719864732Wanderer has multiple problems, not just how every boss is poke only with no multi-hit opportunities, but the range is also garbage
>>719864675i thought it was really fun until i realized it removes your fucking heal in exchange for the lifesteal effect lmaothing is completely useless in every scenario
>>719864687YOU DIDNT BEAT THE GAME
>>719864704The reward is a hunter's note. He's unique or very rare, btw because you automatically unlock Hornet's notes.>Craggler: Thick-plated scuttler that prefers high places.
>>719864693There's so many retarded design choices you're more invested in seeing how deep the trainwreck goes than having fun.
>>719857314just finished that fight. rip my niggers. what a glorious fight
>>719864735Thanks anon, I'm waiting for it to finish downloading
the map girl has a sexy voice
>>719864826IN WHAT REALITY
>AAAAAII AII AII MOSHKAREEEEEII want to fuck the carthographer bug... she's so fucking hot, her voice is hot, the way she squats when speaking to hornet is hot
>>719864945God Im glad Im not the only one who found her squatting hot
Somebody please help me, I'm about to put this game down. I know I'm not supposed to go into Ant March but everywhere else I go there's nothing. I only have silk spear. People are having dashes and sprints and even proper down pogo. What the fuck am I missing ?
>>719864693It doesn't have the atmosphere or mystery.The first game is one of the most atmospheric indies I've played, and the mystery of why Hallownest is in this state keeps you going.Here, you're just taken as a prisoner to some shithole and everyone wants to go to some big city on the surface. There's less mystery and the atmosphere is meh.It feels more like an okay expansion than a sequel.
>>719865016the uninstall button.
How does it compare to Nine Sols in terms of difficulty? Can't be assed to pull out my controller and I hate playing them, but I did NS with kbm
>>719865016Like 4-5 hours of progress.
>>719865016If you’re in Far [forgot the rest of the name] and happen to meet a sewing bug, do her wish immediately. I got stuck for half an hour because the game literally traps you in a circle until you finish the grind.
Just tell me if you get a shade step I frame equivalent at any point
>>719865230There's a silk skill that's basically that. It damages enemy ypu pass through.
>>719856337To anyone doing the silver bells quest -You walk around in the tunnels underneath bell town until you hear the sfx cue for a collectable, then go get your bell(s). They just sorta spawn in over time, seems like either a gold/brass bell or a silver one appears in a handful of set locations.All you get is 120 rosary beads.
is the only way to progress hunters march the arena? cause it is impossible
>>719865016go down instead of into hunter's march
>>719865016post yer world map
>>719865302buy everything the maptard has in store and she should help you curbstomp them i think. dunno what exactly triggers it.
Is it me or is the beast crest just not worth sacrificing the amulets
>>719865348I'm a console fag. >>719865331There's nothing down.
>>719865302>>719865016hunter's march is a completely optional area, how about you look at your map instead of losing hope at the first wall you come across, retard-kun?
>>719865364i dont have hunters march mapis that intended or is she in that area too already?
>>719865386beast crest is flat out garbage, it's insulting that they thought this was a fitting reward for the fucking faggot fly boss.
>>719865410>I'm a console fag.idk what to tell you then, you probably didn't explore the lava area enough. and if you haven't even been to the lava area enough then you haven't been exploring nearly enough to be posting about being stuck
>>719865386both alternate crests i've come across so far have been total ass
>>719865056I think the mystery is hard to replicate when HK already answered a lot of the overarching mechanics of the world.At this point people want less of a mystery and just more of the Hollow Knight universe.
while looking at the beast crest I just finally realized that I can unlock additonal slots with the lockets
So where is the main path to get the ability to hook to those hanging chains?I have 1 of the sacred things, and I am just stuck because I can't even reach the leftmost one because the way up is chains you absolutely should be able to hook on.
>>719865445she sells it after she helps you curbstomp the arena.
>>719865628What the fuck how many hours are you on now
>>719865643>she helps you curbstomp the arena.she does what now? what arena are you talking about? I just finished what i could of that area (Beast boss) and I didnt get help with anything
>>719865703Played for like 5, then went to sleep, made food then started again.
>>719865628Is this the full map?
>>719865756>>719865628I wonder if this game is shorter then
>contact damage on a stunned bosswhat is so good about this game that took 7 years
>>719864693for gameplay, it's much harder than hollow knight (which isn't that high of a bar, outside of the dlc hk is pretty easy). it gives you more room to choose a play style beyond just the badges from hollow knight. there's still badges, but you can also choose secondary weapons and there are some rarer unlocks that even change up your base moveset. quite a lot of customizabilitythere's some decently precise platforming sprinkled around that is sometimes required for progress, this is making some people rage but it's not that badstory is a lot more "in your face", there are more settlements and npcs to talk to. hornet is not a silent protagonist and actually talks back to people and has her own personality. some people who really get hung up on the isolated atmosphere of hollow knight don't like this but it's fine imo, hornet isn't annoying at allthe scale of the world seems insane once again for a 20 dollar game, but then again i haven't beaten it yet so i guess there's potential thtat i could just turn a corner and suddenly the game is just over but i think that's extremely unlikely
Fuck the Moorwing's second phase. Who the fuck thought inconsistent patterns and two hit spinning blades was a good odea?
>>719865818that guys map has like 14 areas revealed and there are supposedly 28, so even though he is rushing he's still only halfway-ish done
>>719865724the one with the ants.
>>719865906just go back and get the fleas so you can skip him
>>719865968>>71986562828 areas makes zero fucking sense judging by that mapWhere would the other 14 be?Are we sure the big yellow and grey area at the top of the map dont have more smaller sub areas with their.own maps?
>>719866001I got absolutely no help in that arena
>>719856337widow is so hard
>>719866005NO
>>719866028Depends on how you count up the stuff in the Citadel, like the Vaults or Cog Core. Either its ust The Citadel, or its Choral Chambers, Vaults and Cog Core
>>719866167Thats still only like 3-5 areasThats 19 out of 28Where the hell are the others lmao
>>719866167do you think the game is hard?having progressed at least like 60% of the game
>>719866028game start with "act 1:<whatever the new kingdom is called (phlarsmold?)". so people have been speculating that act will be a whole new map, possibly back to hallownest
>>719866042should've spent more shekels i guess. like i said i don't really know why she was there other than me constantly buying out her store when i saw her.
>>719866167what act are u at?or is there unironically only 1 act
>>719866267Wait was that shitpost about act 2 coming soon real?
>>719857076Get in my niggas
>>719866236Its got spikes like HK, and I'd say the platforming and general basic enemy movesets are harder than HK. Like Last Judge and Cog Dancers are harder than most of the stuff in base HK campaign.The difference is its more HK so I am accustomed on how to play
>>719866042did you enter the ant area from the lava area directly? if so, you may have skipped the encounter (not that it's anything special)
>>719866286Act 2, I know there is an act 3 from someone else. Act 1, get to the Citadel. Act 2, get the 3 things. Act 3: ???
>>719866330I did marrow > docks > fields > started Greymoor but went back to March. I think I entered through the corridor where you fight the big dude with the axe. I did not buy her markers so that might be it?
>>719864704The beast shard feels borderline uselrdd but Iirc you can get a mask shard by going past him to the left and exploring the staircase like area past his arena. Also how do you get the float/progress in the far fields, I've completely filled the parts of the map i can access with just the dash and I had to go to bed for work before I could get any further.
>>719866005Killed it, it wasn't that bad. Just very high damage.Now I need to find that last flea.
>>719866348Act 4: Profit
>>719861719One of the legitimate issues with hollow knight was that the early stages made face tanking entirely viable, especially with some of the charms. People that got used to that were horribly unprepared for when the difficulty ratcheted up.Silksong isn’t having any of that shit, and instead forces you to get good from the start.
