I died taking this screenshot and this guy disappeared when I was back. Did I fuck up?
admit you want to fuck the bug
I'm already bored.It's no super metroid.
How many simple keys and locks are in the game? I'm about 60% in and I've found 4 so far
>>719953339I have found 4 locks and 3 keys.
WTF
I’m getting shat on by literally every boss / arena
Just died, but this boss is fantastic
>rosary holds 60 beads>it costs 80 beads to string them togetherThat's a fucking RIP-OFF. I remember playing some other game, maybe Sekiro. There was a similar system, where you could save money by buying pouches. And it first it was a rip-off too, but later you'd get a discount making it a 1:1 trade. So there's no reason not to use it. But unless you get a discount in Silksong, there's no reason TO use those rosary bead assembling machines.
what do i do with the shards? i have 400/400
Just got my second Pale Oil NPC says there is more to find. HUH?
>>719953324I feel no attraction toward bugs. Now the cats in Nine Sols...
>he boughted the bridge
>prominently featured in early footage>2 fights and 3 interactionsDoes it feel like some aspects of Silksong were pushed aside in the name of constantly adding shit to the development to make it bigger
>>719953391Bosses are the best when its pure pattern recognition and 0 random bullshit.
>>719953406I hope you remember that if you die a second time and lose hundreds of beads.
>>719953391Just beat these guys, very fun simple boss.
IT'S TIME WISH ME LUCK BROS
wheres her bust?.... i was lied to.....
Finally beat Last JudgeTook a whole ten minutes every time to get him to last phase, exhausted. Exploring the Underworks and man is it grim here. I thought the previous area was bad, but this area is 10x worse. Traps everywhere, money everywhere and an enemy with moveset of a boss.
>>719953406>there's no reason TO use those rosary bead assembling machines.While I generally agree with you, if you plan to suicide run an area and want to keep your beads safe, it's good. I never used them. I'd rather the game work the other way around. You can pay a tax of 25 or even 50% to recover your shade, like Jiji from game 1
90% of the dev time was dedicated to making random poems for lore streamers to gush over
>>719953436He's the Hornet of Silksong. He appears more than enough.
>>719953436No one tell this anon about the true final boss
>>719953436>2 fightslmao
>>719953412Throw them at niggasunironicallyor build a bridge idk
>>719953526They're not random. They tell you what to do later.
>open the door that the giant bug was banging on>he runs through it and escapeduhhhh where the fuck did he go? is it going to kill the pilgrims outside?
Also the elevator down Grand Gate scene was genuinely amazing. I loved it.
Is this area real?
Are you locked out of any endings this time around or can I just try and get everything before getting the endings this time?
>>719953601how do you open that door?
>>719953626>lever breaks after I beat the shit out of itYeah, that fits.
>>719953269I am utterly fucking sick of the run back to Last Judge.
>>719953436Hornet didn't show up all that much in the original either
Where the fuck is fucking Hall of Gods?Act 2 has so many kino bosses that I want to refight all of them. Same with the Judge and Willow.Team Cherry you god damn cucks.
Exodia has been assembled
>>719953269FUCK THOSE DOGGY THINGS IN SINNER'S ROAD
>hmmm im having a tough time, now that i got a bunch of movement upgrades i should go through early areas and pick up whatever’s hidden to power up>find 1 mask fragment, 1 good charm and a bunch of trashbro wheres the fucking metroidvania part?
>>719953387Yeah. Every fucking arena takes me like five to ten tries. I'm getting filtered so hard. My hands are literally going numb from the carpal tunnel because I'm gripping the controller too hard.
>>719953697Last judge run back is easy and quick compared to some later on. Some are incredibly cancerous and long, I can only make it to some boss half the time.
>>719953470FINALLYOnly took me about 13 times of failure at the final boss lol.
>>719953716dlcs maybe
TROBBIO
>>719953767There's mandatory bosses that have a run back longer than 40 seconds?
>>719953387>>719953745You guys are using tools and skills right?
I fucking finally beat the judge!!
>weapon upgrade is locked behind a timed fetch questwhat the absolute fuck
>>719953667go the far fields station and start banging around walls if you wanna kill him make sure you dont hit the door switch before he dies or he just runs out lol
>>719953734Where are the ingredients? Nothing in the game has dropped any for me, so I presumed it was from the shops/towns maxing them out.
am i supposed to help them now or do i come bak later?
>>719953738do you not like your command grabs?
People who complain about savage beastfly just dont use tools, a single bomb one shots the adds.The boss is probably even bigger walkway once you have double jump
>>719953858You're supposed to explore shellwood and help them
2 dancer fight in act 2 is fun, no bullshit, just learn to dancealso if you wall grab and tap sprint, you can go back up a bit. without jumping
I didn't want to accept but I'm worse than journos.
>Give 300 beads for the camp in the citadel>Lol thanks for the cashWhy is this kingdom filled with shysters?
>>719953873>a single bombthat'd be great if I could find bombs.Some anon even told me where the bombs are on the map and I can't seem to reach it, no idea how you obtain them.I already beat beastfly anyway by spamming the boomerang
Just got to Last Judge, I think the complaints about prior bosses are overblown but this one might be justified, not sure how to dodge that big fire attack>>719953858You need to clear the next area to help them
>>719953852One from the moss ladyOne from the halfway innOne from a courier quest in bellhartOne from a boss in sinners restOne in a secret area above blasted steps
>>719953809Congrats. It was a tough fight.
I just wish the difficult parts were countered by exploring. Like if you explore, you just get an upgrade that feels like it does nothing.
>>719953937>has boomerang but no bombsthere is no way this game has that many paths
>immediately broke the bridge for lulz>nothing happensI ain't even mad but what the fuck this cost 300 shards lmaoI need my Venomous Harpoons I can't be wasting money on infrastructure
>>719953873>a single bomb one shots the adds.What bomb? I have daggers, triple daggers and longnail and they all do shit all even with the poison charm. Needs like 4 hits to kill the little guys so I just let the boss kill em
>everything explored>act 2>only one full health upgrade so farseriously what the fuck
>>719953990boomerang is in hunters grounds
>>719953464>>719953439holy shit the run back from this boss is the most dogshit fucking runback holy SHIT
How am I reading so many people are finishing this in 15 or less hours? Fucking HLTB.com has the time at 11 fucking hours. Is there some kind of early game bad ending I missed? I'm currently 15 hours in and only reached the end of act 1. Is act 2 just a cutscene?
>>719953960>boss in sinner's restI've been through there, into the Mist and Bilewater. Where is this boss I somehow ran past. I did the cockroach guts quests there
>>719953337Super Metroid? More like Snoozer Metroid. Shit game. Did you know that Hollow Knight 1 has sold more than the entire Metroid franchise combined since 2017?
>>719954031No it isn't, ignore the big guys and it takes like 10 seconds
>>719954026I am 99% sure there's only 1 health upgrade and 1 silk upgrade obtainable in the entirety of Act 1.
The Phantom was an excellent boss fight. Also>it's a way to the citadel without passing through Blasted StepsKino.
>>719954029what in the fuck, i completed that cancerous zone, entirely
>>719953814qrd?
>>719954049They are fucking liars, game is massive with shit ton of optional areas
>>719954059Under the cockroach guy, in this roomBe warned, the boss is a fucking pain
>>719954109it's a very hidden areaAt the top of the gust of wind, to the left there's a seemingly empty room (I think it had shell shards in there initially), left wall of that has a hole to the secret area with an ant merchant that sells the boomerang and a skull charm. Both are S-tier items.
>>719953269I made more fanartShould i give her milkers? Y/N:
>>719954049I also don't understand it at all. The youtuber dude who done it in 16 hours in one sitting I understand cos he's a faggot who skips dialogue and cutscenes and rushes the games just to get boss footage but I think everyone else is trolling
>>719954171NoYou should give her arms tho
>>719954171draw her pregnant
>>719953958The circle fire?Equip that one tool that you buy from the Deep Docks vendor, it reduces fire damage by 1, just stay away from it and move along with the circleThe run back is fucking cancer but the boss is actually very forgiving in terms of hitboxes.
>>719954159>spoilerive seen so many ppl with those i thought its a2 after u have double jump
>>719953960 >One in a secret area above blasted steps How to get there?
is there a way the citadel is connected to the bellways? or any way I can teleport back to the act 1 areas? don't tell me I have to run to and from the slab everytime
>Delicate flower like quest, have to run through half the zones of the game to reach my destination>But this time with a timer too so you can't take your time
>>719954235No, I don't even have double jump.I'm being filtered by the Judge right now
>kill Last Judge after like 15 tries > it fucking explodes >I die>"hehe surely I just need to do the runback one more time, no way I actually need to fight it again>
I'm hearing conflicting reports so someone spoil it for me is there really an act 3? What's the actual length of the game? I'm worried I'll finish it to fast
>>719954293there is no act 3 but i feel dlc will be act 3 and be about something else, not about the whole weaver/silk thing
>>7199542931 act and act 2 is basically just cutscenes and one boss (rip off of radiance) no clue what team cherry were doing for 8 years.
>>719953387arenas only take me two or three tries, but the bosses are ridiculous
>>719954240Above the pinstress trainer, you need the harpoon upgrade
How do you open that one room the roars come from in Far Fields?
>you can double press tab to open up the whole map this whole timeI can't believe I didn't know. All that time spent going to inventory wasted.
>>719954091I'm in act 1 and i have 2 silk upgrades
>>719954096Where do you see that guy?
>>719954362OK and time it takes to complete?
>>719954381there's a dedotaned button for opening map, just check the keybinds options menu. i set it to "4". the only thing that doesnt work is the inventory button
>>719953873>bombsWhat the FUCK are you talking about? I mean I didn't struggle too much with the beastfly once I noticed he takes his own adds out with the vertical attack, but where does one find bombs?>>719954439You have to get through the Mist by following the moths
>>719954026This game is such a chore. Exploration is miserable, most of the hidden shit is beads and or shards and even then it's a small amount. I just got to Greymoor and I don't really feel like playing anymore. I guess I'm gonna beat it since there isn't anything else I want to play and I hate not finishing games I buy.
>five bells of awakeningBravo. Team Cherry really outdid themselves with this one.
>>719954483>he's only at GreymoorYou have no idea yet.
comfy game
Is it just me or does killing the Beast Tyrant give you a damage boost?
>Fight the [spolier]moth at the bottom left of greymoor together with the knight [/spoiler]>After a few tries decide to do something else because of the retarded runback>Complete first flea quest>Decide to travel with caravan and land at boss location with boss nowhere to be found while the knight isn't there eitherDid I just skip the boss?
>finally made it to the citadel >singing bug girl isnt there waiting for me like she saidfuckshes dead isnt she ;_;
>Magnetite Dice actually triggers quite oftenThis thing is awesome. Worth using in boss fights.
>>719954380This one, to be precise.
>>719953391>Kill one of the robots >The other one still tries to do the dance alone and its sad as fuckCinema
>>719954535any boss that is skipped can be refought after entering act 2, devs thought of it
Anyone else find this dude? Only thing he does is sing
>i share a thread with explorelets
what gets me most is how awful the game is to control. the shity pogo that eats your input half the time and the weird tool key that is complete jank to use in the middle of a hectic fight and triggers your spell all the time as well.
>>719953386this section was so fucking kino
>>719954091I got two and a half silks and one and a quarter mask and I haven't even unlocked the citadel
>>719954650I did not have craftmetal to make it
>>719953818>>719954589
I am once again asking how the fuck to get here.
This find the courier quest was actually a lot of fun.
>a boss healsFUCK YOU
>>719954293There is an Act 3 and at least five different endings.
How do I get the map for bilewater? Double jump?
>>719954595what bosses can be skipped? moorwing was the only one I fought on act 2
>>719954747last judge
>Pimpillohaha
I'm not really understand the lore atm, but conceptually, defeating a God that's turned its people into an instrument is cool in concept.
>>719953412Pretty soon you will start using tools that arent the throwing dagger on bosses and you will have 0 and need to go farm more. If you chuck all your throwing knifes it costs you 40 when you rest. The spike trap thing is goated btw get it
>>719954589Secret passage in the fast travel room, below right platform.
>have to grind 20 bear arses for a critical movement abilityThank you TC, very cool
>>719954731I don't remember where I got it but flee that horrible area with 5+ minutes boss run back.
>>719954591I kneel
Do I need like a key item to beat The Mist or something? It just seems to be going on forever.
>>719954804anon, you just have to hit the spikes, you get 4 out of an enemy at minimum
>poison>shreds everythingits this games mimic tear
>>719954724Just like the good old days of MGSV threads
why the FUCK would they tie tools to a resource when theyre already limited per rest?
>>719954709>>719954709>>719954709H E L PThis is driving me insane
>Died on the last judge runback while getting the ore from it after mapping citadelNO I CAN'T DO IT AGAIN
>>719954895they played too much bloodborne
I like the game but I'd just like to get one fucking powerup that makes me feel satisfied for having gotten it.
>>719954839Didn't notice that, thanks
>>719954049Finished at 14 hours 10 minutes or so, I'm sure there are a handful of areas left to explore but I did just about everything on the main path + at least a 2h+ detour to some optional area that I could have just skipped. Helps a lot when you do all the bosses in a few tries at most, last boss took 2 tries, second to last 4 or 5. Hardest fight in the game was a main story gauntlet for me.
WOW he is literally me kek
>>719954895I hate that shit. Having to farm if you fail too much on a boss is horrible. Disabling that will be one of the first mod I install. Would actually make the architect crest usable.
>>719954895you mean DeS or bloodborne?You get a fuck ton from every enemyIf you are running out it means youre too reliant on crutch tools and should get good
>>719954208cheat engine > lock silk at 10 > play gameor just gitgud idk
>>719953742This is the dark souls 3 of the series
>>719954965So did they scrap the huntress completely?
Wow, this room suckedStill did it first try
While you can argue that bosses doing double damage is fine, I hope TC nerfs the fucking saws and worms down to one damage. It makes exploring suck ass
>>719953269>finally kill the Last Judge>die while she's dying because the devs, for some fucking reason, decided that the hardest boss of the game thus far NEEDED a fucking kamikaze explosion attack during her death throes>if you die while the boss is dying your victory doesn't count, so I have to endure the shitty Judge/Drillbug thing/Wind gauntlet AGAIN in hopes of killing the boss that I've already killed againI've pretty much gotten her moveset memorized and know to run the fuck away after landing the killing blow, but jesus christ that is total bullshit. I can't remember the last time a game pissed me off this much.
>>719953269how to get here in sinners road?
>>719954842genuinely. completely raped the savage beastfly that is filtering everyone in 3 tries. poison seems to be doing 1/2 of your needle dmg every time, which is kino.
>>719954976>why are you complaing about bosses taking a million nail hits?! use your tools you retard>why are you complaining about tools being an incredibly limited resource that you have to farm forever for?! git gud you retardwhat the fuck is wrong with the fans of this shitpile?
>>719954667>the shity pogo that eats your input half the timeSkill issue, 100% success rate for me
I FUCKING LOVE FLEAS BREWGOD FUCK HOW COULD YOU USE ANYTHING ELSE
how do you niggers use your pins?>orangefiltered by an ability>greyfiltered by an enemy>redfiltered by something else
Where is the map for The Slab?I have the keys, double jump, and instead of fighting the boss First Sinner I want the map before
>all those shitters online complaining about difficulty, demanding a nerf patchthis is why you don't want normalfag audience
>>719955064I got to 1 HP after that shit. Very lucky.
GARAMA!

You can bitch smack the perv and threaten his life Kek'd hard
>>719955139>incredibly limited resource>drops from every single enemy>drops from environment clutter>can hold extra in your inv with shard pouches>can increase your capacity with pouchesGET GOOD RETARD
>>719955185The excessive run backs and sparse rosaries drops are valid complains. Whoever complains about parkour is just bad.
>>719955180its in a hidden tunnel in the slab, its tattooed on a dead beg, lmao prison break reference
>>719955170>orangehere be thing
>>719955045No, she's another beast.
WHERE IS DOUBLE JUMP?!?!?!?!?!?!?
>>719955139>incredibly limited resourceyour inventory can hold like 400 by defaultthe only time I got it under 90% was when I used it for a couple of quests in bone bottom
So what does freeing the green nigga in Sinner's Road actually do? I haven't run into him sinceIs it just lmao -1 key
>>719955170>yellowLocked door>silverTo be explored>redBeads>blackRare enemy; come back to finish hunter's journal>bronzeAbility required
I just unlocked the throwing knives and I'm really not a fan of recharging it with currency. I hated this shit in sekiro and if there is nothing to mitigate the costs here I'll probably hate it in silksong too. The rest of the game is great so far.
is this a fucking joke?
>>719955160Really ? Doesnt that just make you attack faster ?
>>719953387>Get dropped into an arena>Game makes me fight an enemy I haven't even seen on its own yet with multiple other enemies alongside it
>does everything wrongIt would take more time to fix this game than it took to make Hollow Knight in its entirety.
>>719955324Combine it with Wanderer's Crest.
>>719955317You have to fight him again later.This time over breakable platforms suspended over lava.While he spawns adds that shoot lava at you.
>>719955317Yes, you are. It's easy come on man
I'm giving up on The Mist for now.I don't understand what I'm supposed to do here.
this game is what bloodborne is to dark souls 1 and that's not a praisebring back slower tactical movement instead of this adhd action crap
>>719955410You need to sneedolin
>>719955343Eh not really. I have some issues with it but there are only a few number tweaks here and there to fix the most egregious stuff.
>>719955247Got it, diabolical to hide it near the bench.You found out what this dude is for, he is fucking annoying
name my band
>>719955353But my range ..
>>719955170hold map, printscreen, ctrlv into pureref, ctrld to paint a red dotyes i didnt beat the game
I already hate the faggot who made this shit without save points.
Beast claw is either garbage or broken because Two tools sounds incredibly good. If only its pogo wasnt worse than getting hornet to chove her needle on your dick
>entire citadel is powered by one horse>can hop on a treadmill near him for no benefit other than to make him feel better
>>719954284wait did you actually have to fight him/her again?
Theres a very high chance that theres an act 3, even if the game can technically end on act 2
>>719955478this was fucking terrible even with the annoying map lady helping you
Are all crests limited to 2/2/2 charms?
>>719955473Y J K
>>719955462as far as i know you need to talk the lady you collected the purple flowers for for that baby quest
I AM YOUR HUMBLE SLAVE /v/AND A SLAVE MUST SERVE HIS MASTERShould I use the simple key to free complacent guy at the start of Sinner's Road OR explore Wormway?
>>719955507Yeah you have to disarm all the nukes
Do Silkspeed Anklets let you jump farther?
>>719955307how do you get the silver or black one? shakra just disappeared of all spots for meI'm right before the 2nd lace fight. do I get those later?
>>719955526You get an upgrade that gives you an extra tool slot regardless of crest.
The long run backs to bosses are one thing but why pack them with unskippable enemies to chip your hp down before you even get to the boss?The judge at the citadel door is a prime exampleTedious run back made worse by the unskippable cone shooting fly in your way that hovers over the dune worms so you have to sit there like a fucking chump waiting for him to hover over so you can hit him FOUR (4) times or expend ammoIts just faggotry
>bell enemies sing when you play the violinhuh
>>719955564>shakra just disappeared of all spots for meHit the ring at belltown.
>>719955553the only benefit to the wormway key is you get a side quest that basically lets you have blue hearts from HK
so that's why the spa is so cheap...also look up and he runs away.
can someone tell me what to do at the top of cogwork coreim kinda retarded, it looks like the music notes should line up but I cant find any combo that works
What does this do? Heal more masks or heal faster? If it's just extra masks that's not worth but if it increases the speed I'll drop all my rosaries on it, I have just enough strings to afford it
>>719955628This legit was a h-game sequence. What the fuck did Team Cherry mean by this.Even the prison part too.It's all fucking pornbait.
>>719955628Hit him
Name my band.
>>719955660Deep Focus from HKMore but slower
>>719955628you can hit him, he'll stop
>>719955660NOT WORTHThat's just Deep Focus from HK.
>>719955661when the thief guy wants to see your valuables, he tries to grab her and hornet slaps him
HOLY FUCKING SHIT LAST JUDGE IS PURE CANCER (I am having fun learning the fight. Which tools? I am using poison traps and triple daggers).
>>719955693>>719955716wow that fucking sucks thanks for telling me, glad I asked here first
>>719955687onee shota bugs
How much damage does each tick of the spike trap do? Surely it can't be that high, it hits like 8 times
they really went full bloodborne
FUCK Hunter’s March
>>719955362
>>719955687the green mices
>map's OST is just piano organs>its the boss playing them
>>719953269there's no shakra in hunter's march and she's not in the start town either. where do I get the map for this place?
>>719955810It's not that bad, even without help. However you should probably do it after getting dash and float
found itit's worth backtracking the previous area and hitting random shit just because you can
>flying enemies dodge just outside your range whenever you attack themThis sucks
I stood on my chair and yelled Kino, what a cool bossI presume the flame shit you get is for the organ quest. "SEARED" organs
>>719955576you can just run past that guy bro
>>719955620doesn't wormway key let you unlock wanderer crest too?
>>719955620That seems like a pretty good bonus, I mean health is so stingy in this game, especially in Sinner's Road/BilewaterDo you know what the prisoner guy gives you?
i'm watching my friend fight a boss and i swear they're using the sound from the pig cops in duke nukem 3d.
>Randomly make my way to Phantom >Beat the boss and now suddenly I'm in Act 2 uh did I fuck myself? there's a whole two zones that I didn't even finish exploring
I'm playing on an OLED and the game obviously looks very nice, but the color banding is a little distracting. Is anyone else noticing it? Should I set Nvidia settings from 10bpc to 8bpc?
>>719955986You got the kino route.
>>719955896Let me guess, just got to Greymoor?The triple pin is an anti-air cannon that shoots at exactly the angle to kill birbs. You can also pogo as they go by.
>>719953960what the fuck
>>719955986I haven't even fought that boss and I'm almost done with the game
>>719955986no you did not fuck yourself, there are two routed into citadel and you took the harder more secret one
Hunters Crest is actually tye most fun crest to useThe Dash attack and the divekick give Hornet so much ability to safe while still attacking, and the extra range goes along wayIt just feels to fast and fluid if you don't get filtered by a 45° angle
just got beast crest, seems utter dogshit. cool
>Hit random wall>It breaks>Hidden area unlockedNo matter how many times it happens, I will always love it.
>>719956008>Let me guess, just got to Greymoor?No, act 2.
I've spent 3 hours trying to kill Groal in Bilewater I can't fucking do it. What is the strategy to kill him? Please help
>>719955874Oh I’m not complaining about the platforming. I’m complaining about the total lack of fucking benches.
Best grind spot for rosaries in act 2?
>>719956019This game has some REALLY expensive stuff, but also alot of vendors. I can't imagine how much the total cost for all items in the game would be
>>719956069The main tip is to learn to enjoy the runback :)
im not having fun :(
>>719956124I am
For me, it's this guy.
>>719954895You have to be crazy, this is the best implementation of consumables I've seen in any soulslike.
>>719955628This is hecking problematic

>>719956032Yeah it is the best one so far, but I haven't got the witch crest yet

>play song manually instead of shouting to call bug steadSOVL
I wonder if it'll be possible to get enough of those slot upgrades to max every single crest in the game or if you'll have to pick and choose.
So this is a fucking lie.I'm looking for a bomb tool or ability as there are so many breakable unbreakable walls.
where the hell is the bomb you people are talking about? i swear ive gone back and explored most areas with wall jump and have done the quests in bone town and belhart but no bomb...
>Choral chambers music after you faced Laceomg THIS is the city of tears equivalent
>>719956207>i should have the wall jump for this area;)
Is there a mod already that removes the cost of using tools?
This game is actually just straight up better than Hollow KnightThe level design is better, the movement is better, the enemy variety is better, the boss designs are better, Hornet actually has variety in her arsenal, the story is more engaging, it's just a better game all in all.The only real 'fault' I can find is that the game is hard, which isn't really a fault.
>>719956176>pic>he had last copy of V3 in his chopper with himnever ever
>>719956264retard
Which quest is the delicate flower equivalent quest and can I bench warp it
If team cherry patches the game to nerf the difficulty I'll be very mad. It's perfectly balanced.
>>719956235Greymoor westernmost tower/upper left, hidden breakable ceiling above a shut-in bug. Need the crafting metal you can buy cheap from Bonebottom shop.
I THOUGHT THE MIST AREA WAS JUST SOME SHITTY "YOU NEED THIS ITEM TO PROCCEED" MAZE SO I DECIDED TO COME BACK LATER AFTER BEING RAPED BY THE GHOSTS WHAT THE FUCK
Jesus fucking christ how much fucking shill money do you rich fuckers have for this garbage game?Fuck you i'll play an indie metroidvania instead.
>get into a room that requires double jump with a cheeky pogo from dragging an enemy near a wall>inside there's another ledge that requires a double jumpFuck off
>>719956264Yep, I'm 100% with you on there. Levels are so much more engaging to explore it's unreal.
>>719956264this is a true and real
>>719956309Stop lying
I have to be honest it's a little disappointing how linear everything is. There's nothing to explore really it's all straightforward and you either have the power up necessary or you don't. Hollow knight was better in this regard
>>719956264I still prefer HK. Hallownest is cooler, its areas more memorable, I also like its music better. I prefer the knight's magic over traps. And the stuff with the Vessels and the infection is more compelling than Hornet's side quest into a strange land.. although this opinion might change with time because I haven't finished Silksong yet.
>>719956361>Stop lyingOk what boss filtered you? Sister Splinter? Last Judge?
>>719956309no it isn't the beast crest is useless
>>719956262Haven't happened yet but if I'm dying too many times and lose all my tools, I will just cheat and fill me back up. I almost went out during the last gauntlet to get one of the melody.
Aaaaah how do I get a fucking booooomb tooool?
>>719956364What the actual fuck are you talking about?
>hmm this game is kinda lacking kino boss fights>met this fellaskinocinema even
i already ask this in another thread but do anyone know where is the best place to farm rosary in act 2?
>>719956227do you want spoiler? it's at the upper leftmost side of greymoor
>>719956069tips:>don't try to kill the mobs that show up, just avoid their attack>if you're having too much issues avoiding the maggot water, just fight the boss with maggots, his moveset is very plain and easy to deal with when you don't have a panic attack over getting affected by maggots
>>719956420Best bossfight in the game.Predictable, but challenging.And also quite touching.
>>719956387I'll be completely honest. The only memorable area that truly hit the most in Hollow Knight is City of Tears/Blue Lake, Deepnest, and the Abyss.
>>719956426Man, spoil me maximum, can you give me a pinpoint on a map?
>>719956264you deserve a (you) for this bait
Where do I find a second metal ore in act 1 ? I spent the first one on the magma bell cause I thought tools were not worth the trouble at that point.
>>719956364very glad you got the weaver queen act 2 ending bwo
>>719956406>the beast crest is uselessWhy did I beat Sister Splinter and Widow with it then? Pic related.
Be honest, did you get shoved into the cage or did you find The Slab by walking there?
>>719956395 the ant gauntlet, bird gauntlet, and the moth
>>719956459
>>719956518I got caged in Act 1It was honestly way more kino than walking there normally
>>719956364How the fuck is this game linear.
>>719956240Yep, it's perfect
>>719956534It's ok anon-shi. You probably just need to get used to using silk storm to clear fodder.
Can anybody give me hints on where I can find Ghillie or the names of the areas she is in?
>>719955950It does, I don't think there's a way to get there without the wormway key.
>>719956262https://www.nexusmods.com/hollowknightsilksong/mods/5>cheat-shards.ips - don't spend resources when crafting tools
How the fuck..?
>>719956310thanks anon, literally one of two places i havent gotten to yet before i enter the worm place, others made it seem it was super early game, which i suppose greymoor could fall under once i discover how long this shit actually is
>>719956518No one can convince me that they got sacked not on purpose considering the fat fly mob is way easier than the sackers in bloodborne
>>719956176I was only able to find one bell so the quest is fucked. Any way I can edit the save file to remedy this?
>>719956420>Just lost 500 rosariesGOD
>99% of boss attacks are 2 masks>Contact damage is 2 masks>Level hazards are 2 masksI have to wonder what the though process was. Did they design it like that from the start or did it all used to be 1 damage and they just doubled it for some reason
Uh-oh, I've played this game before
>>719956418The areas are just boring. I mean you get to a place and within 10 minutes you've seen everything and I think that's mostly due to areas being too spread out. They could have shrunk this game down to like half the areas to make the content more dense. I think they spent too much time on combat and while that's a lot better the map design has suffered because of it. It's not game ruining but it's a little disappointing
>>719956630i feel ashamed now, it caught me off guard thats for sure
>>719956387Just from the early game: deep docks, hunter's march, and greymoor are extremely memorable levels and better than nearly everything in hollow knight
>killed the kidnapper in the far fields so it's just the ants there now>there's another kidnapper in bilewater but when I got killed by it I just diedI'm gonna try the bilewater kidnapper again but I'm afraid I fucked myself out of the prison scene.
>>719956483You can find one in the marrow and one you can buy from the guy in town. I've found those 2 so far so if you've already bought the one from town which seems more likely then you need to explore the Marrow more.
KINO KINO KINO KINO KINO KINO KINO KINO KINO KINO KINO KINO KINO KINO KINO KINOHOLY SHIT I ACTUALLY TEARED UP I DONT EVEN CARE THAT END IS A QUICK TIME EVENTTHIS FUCKING BEATS EVERY HK BOSS KINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>finally got out of the citadel area and into the slab and mt. flay to get the stationSo far, Act 2 is quite interesting. A lot more architecture around here.
>>719956483Can't remember, but there are like 4 pieces scattered around the first few areas in act 1. If you haven't done so yet, you can also buy a single piece from the merchant at Bone Bottom.>ToolsEh, the only one I've found worthwhile is hidden in Greymoor and it requires some progression through the first act to get it.
>>719956717meds
>>719956729That area was short but really cool, too.
>>719956420>the remaining clockwork dancer stutters and kneels when doing the solo routine and keels down after the failed combo > hunter's journal says the machines are two but the soul is one NOOOO THEY'RE MACHINES WHY DO I FEEL BAD
Crystal Peak is one of my favorite areas in Hollow Knight and Silksong runs circles around it.
>>719956676There had to have been conflicts and development because the developers claimed that this game was going to be new player friendly and it absolutely is not in any way shape or form because even hollow Knight veterans are getting chewed up
>>719956698I ask again, what the actual fuck are you talking about? Nothing you're saying tracks to reality. What fucking game have you been playing? It certainly doesn't sound like Silksong. Are you just shitposting?
>>719956717stop feeding the trolls idiot
>get reaper>the game suddenly become so much fucking easierwhat the FUCK
Finally! Something to spend my rosaries when I've bought all the items in the game!
>>719956593I don't recall needing a key to get that, just wall jump to get over and around the door near the priestess lady
>>719956717I honestly forget half the shit that is in the map if I don't mark it with a "progress here later" pin. Didn't use to happen with hollow knight. It just doesn't leave as much of an impression.
>those endless fucking waves before the last melody>last one is double niggersHoly fuck my thumbs hurt, I'm taking a break. How do you even deal with them?
>>719956698Atleast watch streams of the game you're trying to shitpostPretty much anyone who played both games will agree silksong has at least twice as much content as base HK, most actual issues being related to not liking Hornet as MC.
>>719956782>THEY'RE MACHINES WHY DO I FEEL BADYou gain soul when hitting them, meaning they're alive in at least some sense.
>AYEEEEEEEE
>>719956812Wait until you get wanderer, I'm planning to replay without it because it make the game way too easy.
>>719953269phew. they're safe
Man…
>>719956676This was 100% something they decided early in to the games development. It introduces an enhanced element of risk and forces the player to be more engaged and less sloppy. This is the reason Hornet's bind is the way it is
>>719955180is the double jump there? I'm not fully sure how to proceed but I'm going to make my way back over there when i play again.
>>719956862BUGGED
>>719956782>hunter's journal says the machines are two but the soul is one Idk if you found the dialogue yet but the soul that embodied them is a loved one of the guy imprisoned in sinner's road
>>719956513Now try the wanderer crest
>>719956876Well deserved (You) for the edit. Made me chortle. Giggle even.
>>719956782Will you feel less sad knowing that they're based on a gay mantis NPC
>>719956846Made sure to get full life and lot of silk before and spammed all my tools and spell on them.
>>719953269>game is a 7/10 disappointment>unlock Reaper >game is a 10/10You had me worried there.
I want more Centipede Tribe, they seem cool as hell.
>>719956862how do you have time to press the print screen button but not to react
>>719956817Holy kek
>>719956863downward pogo is so beyond overpowered holy shit I swear the difficulty curve cut in half the moment I get it.It's fucking sad that I have to suffer for 4 hours until I get to enjoy the game
>>719956862I used the bomb to deal with the adds, but it's still a shit boss fight (the only shit boss so far imo)Also, the fact that I need to kill ANOTHER ONE for the hunter journal unnerves me (I don't want to see that fucker again)
>>719953386Anon, this is a blue board!
>>719956862What do you do in this situation?
>>719956791You just have a different opinion and that's fine but the maps in hollow knight had so many more secrets and hidden areas so the ones here in silksong feel lackluster. To be fair I didn't play hollow knight on launch so maybe the maps only became that way in hollow knight after updates so I guess we'll have to wait but as is the maps in silksong are disappointing. I do think combat is way better though. It's not all negative
ANSWER ME RIGHT NOW>BUGFU>CRESTFU>TOOLFU>AREAFUANSWER

Aiee the pimpillo did nothingLET ME IIINNN
>TIMED FETCH QUEST
Considering how much you fags hyped him up, moorwing wasn't too bad. He gets dabbed on by the floaty cloak pretty hard
>>719956895>wanderer crestshitter crest for stupid babies. Upgraded hunter's crest is all I need. Your vertical pogo disgusts me.
>>719956782>The music gets Sad as fuck:(
>trannies using cheat engine to pretend to dab on people
>>719956985Sometimes its about preventing a situation
>>719956876holy based
>>719953406Later on you can buy larger necklaces that still only have a 20 markup, so it's more efficient.
>>719957027Most people complaining about any boss genuinely does nothing but normal attack and healI'm sure some aren't even doing pogo because base crest pogo is a bit tricky to use
>>719956890Double Jump is West of the Slab, in the snow mountain. You claw line go up the mountain
>>719956969It's not even the pogo, the dps and silk generation with it is so overpowered. I believe that all the people complaining about boss having some insane health bar are using slow moveset, but as far as I'm aware, damage doesn't scale with those slow crest, you basically have double the dps of reaper with wanderer.
>>719956989>BUGFUShakra>CRESTFUWanderer v.2 >TOOLFUPoisoned Drill, poisoned trap>AREAFUChoral Halls
This whole game feels like an open letter by Team Cherry going "We regret putting checkpoints in White Palace. People shouldn't enjoy being alive."
>>719957112>Wanderer v.2How do you upgrade it?
Where's the longnail equivalent
can anyone tell me the weavenest locations? I've only found atla so far
>>719957027My """trick""" was just running away when it spammed projectiles because the arena is so wide.But I also didn't really beat it since I accepted the elderly knight's help.
PRO TIP>PRO TIPDo NOT exhaust Shakra's stock. Always leave a pin in her inventory. The game WILL bug out and you won't get the extra dialogue per zone.
>>719956987Ok show your 100% exploration rate save data
>>719956987This sounds to me like you're just not exploring and blaming it on the game cause in my experience Silksong is way more dense with secrets to find per area.
>>719957164reaper crest
I'm confused how the lady in Atla upgrades crests? What's the trigger to upgrade them? I want my Wanderer crest upgraded. She obviously does the hunter one at the start. I went back to her some time later and got something else but don't remember what. What actually makes her upgrade your stuff
>>719957150Talk to the cum vial in the weavenest atla
Why does contact damage deal 2 hearts of health? Ok his bigass sword deals 2 hearts because it's a giant Guts sword, it why does just touching him wipe almost half my HP?
>>719957087It was the same in HK if i remember correctly.Pretty much everything was insufferable but if you actually refought some stuff with double jump, max range nail (or spell boost) and shade cloak i turns out you are the boss and not them.I can only assume with max dmg, proper tools and useful charms shit like judge is gonna melt.
>>719957214I exhausted all her dialogue when I found her and she only upgraded hunter, guess I'll go back
>>719957230Hornet hates being touched
>>719957206There's a tool too, someone mentioned it before
>>719957182I haven't 100% the game but I've seen more than enough to make the claim. I'm like 15 hours in
>>719957027People are legit just bad at games.I UNDERSTAND Last Judge's dogshit runback, but all the other complaints like Willow, SisterSplinter, Moorwing, etc. are all complete memes.Beastfly can go suck a dick though.
where the fuck is the map in bilewater? I feel like ive gone everywhere i can go there, but i havent found the cartographer or the boss there >>719956989>bugu menderbug in bonebottom>cresfuhunter>toolfustingshard>areafuhunter's march
Does anything happen if I donate?
Do I get some kind of heat source? How do I even go this way?
>>719957230because hard game xd having fun yet?
>>719957275Yeah, at the end of the ice area
>>719953567What?
>fight widow like 20 times>omg i win>stage 2fucking hell man
>>719957259lol ok, so you rushed through areas and think you get to judge the game's secrets? Who's the true last boss and why are you fighting it?
>>719957230Because devs are retardsMost people are gonna be running the whole game with 6 masks pretty much nullifying the point of 6th one in the first place
>>719957270you get head
>>719957321Either it’s really small or there’s something I’m missing. You take like one mask damage per ten seconds.
You can tell how mentally ill people are if they sexualize what is practically a fucking stick figure.There is no such thing as pretending to be retarded.
>>719957214She upgraded hunter for me not wanderer.
FUCKING FUCK OFF ALREADY WITH FLYING ENEMIES THAT INPUT READ AND KEEP FLOATING JUST OUT OF REACHWHY ARE THEY IN EVERY SINGLE AREAWHY ARE YOU SO OBSESSED WITH TEDIOUS TIME WASTING SHIT LIKE THIS
So from what I can tell throwing knives with the first upgrade deal 1.2 hits worth of damage per shot as the little warrior ants die in 5 hits from the knives but 6 hits if I use melee in any way.Silkspear also deals 3 hits worth of damage, god bless it.
>>719957196I've literally been going back to areas constantly. All of my map markers are used up. The game simply isn't as dense as hollow knight. I'm sure it's got more content overall but the areas feel surprisingly empty
>>719957095ah alright. I was heading that way to attempt that area. It seemed insurmountable when I stumbled on it the first time.
I think Citadel has far better level designs than the lower part of Pharloom
>>719956976I actually really like Savage Beastfly. Perhaps it's stockholm syndrome, but he's designed in a neat way. His attacks are all readable and easy to dodge. The only hard rule of the fight is to not jump when you don't need to, because his tackle attack tracks your position, so if he catches midair it becomes impossible to dodge. Once you understand he becomes very hittable boss. The challenge comes from his mob bugs, which force you to not only memorize and understand his patterns, but also improvise on the spot to nove situations. I really came to understand how the hunter crest works in this fight
>>719957348Yeah literally no point in upgrading health with this double damage bs
>>719957407Literally just turn away. They input read so they know to come to you at that point.
>>719956985Walk into left bug for 1 dmg, get invincibility and dash to right
>>719957445Citadel is denser.
>>719957180What elderly knight wtf didn't even find that nigga. Imagine using "summons" for this piss easy boss.
reminder that you can dash downwardsyou can also dash upwards while wallclinging
Which Crest is better Reaper or Hunter? Both have same slots. I guess it's a choice between damage and more silk.Also how do I explore the rest of the weavernest Atla? It keeps rocketing me between tunnels and I can't stop
>>719956989>BugfuThat singing bug, no idea what's her name is.>CrestfuReaper.>ToolfuDidn't use tools to beat the game.>AreafuThey're all kinda bad desu, probably a tie between shellwood or cogwork core.
when does it get fun? Super metroid was fun from the intro
>>719956805NTA but unironically kill yourself if you think liking Hollow Knight is "trolling", like we're all supposed to hate HK now that Silksongs out. Hollow Knight is many peoples favorite game of all time and Silksong has barely been out for two days, the guy who's opinion might change is probably gonna end up appreciating the sequel more overtime than a faggot like you
>Skull Tyrant fucking destroyed the villageALSO WHERE THE LAST PLASMIUM
>go apeshit with flying enemies>make their AI constantly dodge out of your reach>remove up+RB spellWe had le fun developing le game for 7 seven years xD
"Oh hey, I found this game's Confessor Jiji">He's at the bottom of a pit in the most inhospitable zone literally 12 or more screens from the nearest bell stationreally??
>>719957517every single bug sings bro, you have to be more specific
>>719957407>KEEP FLOATING JUST OUT OF REACHHow bad are you. Just be patient and wait for them, most of them will come for you unless it's that one crow guy with the knives
Can you kill the downwards dashing worms in wormway? You can hit them to farm soul, but I haven't been able to kill one yet.
So what's the condition or "expanding your nature"? Is it abilities? Number of crests? Tools? All of them?
>>719957413That’s not too bad
>>719956989>>BUGFUPhantom>>CRESTFUReaper>>TOOLFUPimpillo>>AREAFUBellhart
>>719957531>like we're all supposed to hate HK now that Silksongs outHK is a 7/10 game carried by presentation and music. Silksong improves everything about it.
>>719957536so I did open the lever and freed skull tyrant. But I also found him in a place and killed him. Did I save the village, or is it a different one and Im doomed anyways?
>>719957509Go to the bottom and there is an opening in the roof to the right you can jump into to get to the midway parts
>>719956176>>719956648I am convinced the bells can respawn. I am certain I picked up 2 in the same spot I saw them before.
>>719957214Seconding what the others said, I only got an upgrade on Hunter.
I accidentally fell on and broke the bridge constructed in bone bottom, does that have consequences?
>>719957573Where is this again?
>>719957509hunter, especially after you upgrade it
Whoever thought of the red flower jumps, fuck you. I cant manage to get passed the final jump even after putting in 3 fucking hours. Are they mandatory to progress in the game? If so, i'm uninstalling
>>719957543>oh nooo they removed the spell that guides told me to use!ok now I will tell you to use at least 1 of the 10+ ranged tools that all can kill flying mobs on their own
>>719957591>Pimpilloreally? Isn't boomerang + spike trap better?
>>719954407How?
>Beat every boss either 0 deaths, 3-4 deaths, or rarely 5-8 deaths>Savage Beastfly>33 deathsThere's no way the devs intended this boss to be that much of a piece of shit.
why did they hire dracula to design the game man this shit is diabolical
>>719957645You barely even see those flowers. I haven’t seen them in a good ten hours minimum.
>>719957551The cute one that you also stumble upon in the spa area, with her little yellow hat.
>>719957596You kill him as part of a quest.
>>719957413>just poison dart spam any encounter that pisses me off slightly I beat the game
>>719957639I miss the better downward swipe tho.... also do I need to upgrade it twice for it to be good or the once + side is good already?
>>719957645No, hunter's march is entirely optional. There is nothing required in there at all.
>>719957509Really, it's just about the crest you prefer. They all have different movesets that have different use cases. If you can't comprehend 45° degree angles you should probably switch off of hunter crest though
>>719957608Yes they seem to randomly spawn when you enter a valid room
>>719957696they didn'tyou panic the moment there's a boss and a mob in the screentook me 1 try for first one and 2 for the second one
>>719957608Silver bells are a random spawn, just run around the area till you get 8 of them.
>>719957628Needolin door in the starting area.
>>719957717I killed him and then got the quest and then turned in his trophy for the quest reward. But I killed him before the village got fucked up by him so am I safe?
HE'S HERE!
>>719957645Turn around and come back here later. Didn't the gatekeeper at the door give you enough hint that going here without Dash and Float is a bad idea?
>>719956842i think the "problem" is that the maps are huge and very open, so there's like 7 paths to different rooms everywhere you go, it's a lot easier to get lost or remember where stuff is compared to hollow knight
>>719957758>you panic the moment there's a boss and a mob in the screenPoor argument since there's several other bosses that do the exact same thing and I trounced them.
>>719957550Guys you were supposed to reply to this post by saying "Haha moron you didn't realize there's a hidden bell station right under there?? Break the wall retard"please
>>719954842>>719955079poison + boomerang is my clutch
>>719957573I think it's doing those dream sequences, with white silk platforms and spiders in the background
>>719957780I don't know anon, he ram raided the village from the left side while I was walking back from the wormway.
>>719957645You should probably get more movement abilities before you do Hunter's March

When does "naked" encounter happen? I am afraid I will miss it.
>>719954842I love this stupid thing. It clears the dumb enemy arenas so easily. It makes me realize how trivial my problems were.
>>719957818I'm trying to find an excuse for either your lying ass or why you are traumatized by a boss with a simple pattern that spawn basic adds. I'm not obligated to not just call you a shitter, but it seems that's what you want.
>>719957783Please tell me he still hums
where you recommend using the first simple key? i'm short on rosaries but need to progress, and i remember wasting my first simple key in HK on confessor jiji and remember how useless that was
Guys I'm super serial, where is the last plasmium. I've been looking for an hour. I'm gonna kill myself. I got the one on the west side of the lower wormway with the obviously dead assistant and I got the one near the very bottom entrance.
>>719957928You don’t need to use a single key to progress.
Holy shit, I beat the tree boss and Widow on my first try without visiting a bench in-between. For all the talk about difficulty, this might be the most fair and least trial-and-error Metroidvania I've ever played.
>>719957726Sorry, not the slots, but the crest itself gets an upgradeDesu if you like the heavy down attack then pick that, it's better be consistent and comfy
this game definitely has way more kino moments than hollow knight. the npcs and towns feel so dynamic. it's such a nice feeling.
>>719957897>SheAnon...
My only issue with the game so far is the amount of gangbang rooms and bosses that summon extra units. I've stunned this cunt here like five times and killed over a dozen of his mooks, but one badly timed charge attack from a flying fuck and I'm back at the bench.
It's over. I'm being filtered. Just tell me how I put the game on easy mode, where do I need to go?
>>719957928There's a mask shard hidden right at the entrance of the wormway in a little watery area so if you want that go there.
The only actual valid criticism I've seen so far is that some of the boss run ups are a tad too extreme.

HOW THE FUCK DO I EARN BEADS?!4TH BENCH/MERCHANT/STATION I PASS AND I EARNED A TOTAL OF 0 BOSSES GIVE 0EVEN THIS FUCKING FLEA PASSIVE WANTS 30 BEADS??ARE THEY BRAINDAMAGED???
>>719957908I could just as easily call you a liar and say you didn't one shot him.I've demolished every boss so far, beastfly has been the ONLY problem, and that's a COMMON experience, choosing to pretend like it's not an exception just so you can act like you're better than everyone is just being lazy.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA FUCK THESE ENDLESS ARENA FIGHTS AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I'm only peeking in to ask because I want to avoid spoilers, but how long is this game? I'm 14 hours in and still not done with Act 1, which I admit must be slower than usual because I was an idiot and turned around at the two entrances to Shellwood both times I was first there and completely forgot to go back, leaving me wandering around like an idiot for hours. How far in am I? Am I going to take so long that I miss these threads? I'm scared at how big this game seems to be compared to HK.
>>719957987Ok, but what’s your load out so we know if you were just a needle and healer.
I'm actually really surprised at how good the quest system feels.When I first heard about it I thought it would be obtrusive and tedious but no, they go by like nothing and are honestly fun to do
>>719957593Amazing that secondaries got go caught up in the Silksong hype meme they forgot the reason we were excited for Silksong in the first place is because we love Hollow Knight, go back to redit you fucking loser. Not because you think Hollow Knight is overrated but because you think anyone who doesn't is somehow just trying to troll you
>>719957697where do you get the fiery tool thing?
>>719958026I think there's definitely merit in the complaint that there are too many 2 health damage stuff with barely any mask upgrades early on.Combine this with the fact that beads are so much more valuable so dying to 2 damage shit hurts that much more at least in Act 1.
>needolion breaks the thread effect on pilgirms for a short amount of time
>>719958009Ironically after dealing with so many flying enemies. I’ve learned how to better deal with them. Team Cherry tricked me and made me learn.
>>719958107You're still in the tutorial bro
>>719955801God damn this is great. I hope that the person that made the Vessel for Darkest Dungeon does Hornet, she has like four different movesets at this point.
>>719958107you're VERY far from completing the game. the citadel is act 2 and it's fucking ginormous
>>719958087>and that's a COMMON experienceMost people did NOT take 0-1 tries in most bosses and 30 tries in Beastfly. Some people find him annoying, but it's usually the people who already are struggling with single boss like Moorwing. You would be an exception, if I am to believe the shit you spew.
>>719958107you're less than 1/3 of the way in
>>719958115Thats fine and all but why THE FUCK is the spine quest like that
>>719958016> Just tell me how I put the game on easy mode, where do I need to go?Nexusmods
Day 3 and I can safely say silksong is way better than OG hollow knight. Except in terms of story but I always knew there was no way it was gonna top it anyway. I’m still in act 1 btw but at the area before the citadel I assume
>>719958026Some of the bosses are too fucking long as well.
>>719958009Whoops forgot the picture.
>>719958026game is boring? how about that? dogshit platforming in a game with mobile tier movement is NOT FUN
>>719958107you are 1/3 in. If you like to explore and backtrack it will take a while
>>719958086early game beads are hard to collect. for now only pilgrims drop beads for you. the more you play and more areas you unlock, the more enemies start dropping beads (especially if you clear areas without dying). hunters march also has a lot of beads but that area is really tough (i completed it after bellhart ). Dont worry about shop items for now, you'll get enough money to buy them all out later on.
>>719955170i do not use pins at all
>>719958107It’s about double that amount of time. You’re almost at the end of Act 1.
>>719957783How did you destroy the ground here?
Lace 2 is bullshit. Can't even reliably get past the 1st phase. How do you even react fast enough to her attacks?
>>719958114Reaper, with no tools on Widow because I used them all up on the tree boss.Also my reward is playing music? What the fuck am I supposed to use this for?
>>719958107you currently have 9 areas unlocked. you wanna know how many areas there are in the game?28
>>719957780I killed the skull tirant, got the quest later, delivered the horn, THEN later skull tyrant destroyed the villagefucking cheating faggot
>>719958250you open it from below
>>719957910He does not, sadly.>>719958250From beneath.
>>719958278To open the door believe it or not
Alright, since I got spoiled. Should I rest at the bench in Bellhart for that "secret" cutscene?I still haven't explored Sinner's path, that arid looking place near Pharloom's edge or Wormways and I fear it may have some repercussions if I do itI also haven't done the Bell quest, just found the room and fucked off to leave it for later. Is it hard progress or do you need to do something extra to "save" the town
>>719958278opens up closed off areas.tip: go to the starting zone and pay attention to the map and find similar doors
>>719956264>The only real 'fault' I can find is that the game is hard, which isn't really a fault.I honestly haven't been finding it that hard so far, not to the point of it being unfun at least, but where most of the difficulty is coming from is definitely wack.>You effectively have three health in most situations instead of five because of how commonly you take two damage, and getting your first HP upgrade doesn't change this at all, o your life bar feels misleading >On top of that, iframes after getting hit are nearly non-existent, so even if you only take one damage from something the likelihood of immediately being hit again is high>Meaningful upgrades in general feel few and far between, you can clear out several areas and encounters without getting anything that felt worthwhile or made you feel stronger and it make them feel more difficult than they were just because you wasted your time>Fights with hordes of enemies fucking everywhere, and they're often ones you won't have experience fighting individually yet>Currency is scarce (with some areas having almost no sources of it), but literally everything costs money, so some degree of grinding is practically required unless you're never dying or constantly stopping to go get your beads strung up>Tool material is easy to come by, but it's also easy to run out if you fail an encounter multiple times, so more grinding>Insane checkpoint starvation in certain areas while others have more benches than a public park>Traps lmaoOverall just a very oddly designed game in many ways.
>>719958193You do know hitting the quills he throws everywhere will give a spine right?
I found lifeblood.
>>719958174>>719958184>>719958191>>719958236>>719958248>>719958307Jesus Christ. Appreciate it bros, guess I'll be here in a week, hopefully discussion won't have dteriorated too badly by the time I'm done. Despite how daunting this game is, I'm having a lot of fun. Fuck those wormdog things in Sinner's Road though
>>719958107DId the last boss at the 14h mark. Your progress (+ at least 2 extra areas ahead) took me like ~6h.
>>719958351It’s a straight up boss fight, but you can’t go there easily until you’re done with Shellwood.
holy fuck greymoor is unmatched, this areas mood and enemy design is so fucking cool
>>719958329>>719958357Oh cool. I thought it was like Silent Hill where most doors are just for decoration.
How the fuck do I traverse Mount Fay without dying simply by existing
I... am not fond of this game's "spawn at a bench 100km away from the boss" mechanics. HK had this problem to a still manageable degree but here it's absurd. The marathon to the Last Judge boss after respawning is absurd.
>>719958369Some of your earlier points I disagree with but I do agree that they could have eased up on how to refill the tool system. I love using tools but some shit just makes zero sense.The lifeblood needle especially is too far off to be useful. A shame too because fleas brew uses the same system but is so fun to use.
>>719955478this part was really bad because those flying bugs get out of your reach too fast.
>>719958462I don’t even understand what the lore behind this guy or any of the greymoor guys are. All I know is there’s a super scissor guy.
I finished itit was alrightit just kinda ends and the last boss is basically just radiance from the first game
>>719958462This is a homage Scissorman from Clocktower, right? Their idle noises sounds like his theme song, and their attacks similar to his.
>>719958129deep docks past the locked door
FINALLYFuck Willow
Just beat the fat lunch lady boss in Sinner's RoadIt took me easily 30+ triesI wanna jerk off to grotesque r34 of her now
>>719958531It's a red herring ending btw.
>>719958531I'm sure you killed hollow knight in the first game after 3 bosses and also considered HK done
>>719958487You’ll think so then you’ll start to be able to run it in like 20 seconds.
>>719958531>just kinda endsAnon you should have learned by now from the first game
>>719958531i don't know if im going to finish it, im in the clockwork level, it's just ... boring
>>719958462I don't like Greymoor. Drags on too long, bird enemies are annoying to deal with, and Moorwing bugged out when I fought it.
>>719958086There's an act 1 loop in Mosshome with a bench and a couple pilgrims that you can farm for easily more than 30 beads per loop. I'm surprised no one else is talking about this.
>>719958582Seriously, how does no one realize the ending is just like HK? Now what’s the dream nail of Silksong?
>>719958616we've already talked about it a lot in previous threads here.
What the fuck is this zoomer adhd sescond silk fight?This isn't fun or challenging, just tedious.
>>719957995It sure helps to have a society that's sort of shambling along instead of "pretty much entirely dead" like in most soulslikes.
>The mistWHAT THE FUCK
I've been making steady progress, downed widow but I have to say, I don't feel accomplished. I just feel fucking exhausted playing, and I find myself just dreading what comes next instead of being optimistic that I beat a boss. Maybe Soulslop isn't for me.
>>719958675Which fight?
I can't believe that the second needle upgrade is a fuckin quest that sends you all over the place defeating the most insane bosses when you could just smash the thing the oil is in and give it to the guy in Bellhart
How do you get on the left? I got there yesterday for the tube and I already forgot now that I have rosaries
Super fun boss fight
>>719958156Damn, that's nice to know.I still don't know how I feel about putting a pretty much entirely non-combat ability on a face button over one of your red tools though.
>>719958721I am so annoyed, my brain auto filtered 'lace" to 'silk'.
What do you mean skull tyrant
>>719958719Same, but until I reach the end. Can’t stop. Won’t stop.
>>719954842I have no shame using that against gauntlet fights.
Alright I give up. The Chapel of the Beast is way too fucking hard. I'm coming back when I've got more upgrades.
>>719958462>Walk into room>One of these guys walking around on a thin platform up above>"Heh, I'll just cheese him by attacking him through the floor"
>>719958315>>719958318I must have missed some secret wall.
>durr why do things deal 2 damageBecause you can heal mid-air you retarded niggers.This is the singular most broken shit in the game.
>>719958775o7Come back later for a funeral.
>>719958754How do you get to the right side? As far as I remember you have to go all the way around and up to get here on the left side. It’s a one way.
>>719958814So you fucked around and found out?
>>719958821That must've sucked.
>>719958824>heal mid-air>pogo off an enemy or boss>immediately heal>free 3 hpIt's crazy lmao
>>719958654you get to turn your pin into a silk guitar and play it
>play hk>nothing is really all that challenging>plenty of money, some cool spells>play silksong>you get buttfucked on every turn>dirt poor, stinky boring toolshornet should stay in the kitchen, she can’t fight for shit
TWO DAMAGE CONTACT DAMAGE CAN GO SUCK A FUCKING DICK
>>719958693play the song next to the lil moths
>>719958592>>719958579ah I'm a retard I guesswhat should I be looking to do next? I had to have someone tell me how to get the real ending in HK
dying to widow but im not mad cuz im eating pickles
>Mandatory path of pain>More sawsOk team cherry thanks
>stagger gay bug robots>they still maximum spider youget the backstagers outta here
>>719959081Explore areashit walls and ceillingsuse the song button in everything that is suspicious
>Still in Act 1>1,5 hp upgrade>3 silk upgradesnice, how many acts are there?
>>719959217Four.
>late bilgewater>see map lady's rings>they're WAY TOO HIGH UPcan I get this without monarch wings??
This is why higher beings should only breed with other higher beings. Otherwise you get a MUTT like hornet that gets double and tripled masked ag EVERYTHING
>change spells? bench>change crest? bench>died to boss? lol run back fuckotheres just so much wasted time everywhere
>>719958026I have two broad criticisms.>1. Rosaries are far too scarce in the early game. I'm nearing the end of Act 1 and my rosaries have suddenly ballooned to 800+, but before that point I was struggling to afford benches, stations, and items.>2. There's way too fucking many flying enemies that are simply obnoxious to deal with and discourage you from changing crests because pogo'ing is the best way to deal with them when your hunter's tools run out.Everything else is pretty specific:>The bullshit that is the Chapel of the Beast, specifically how it auto-equips the beast crest, resets your respawn point to outside the chapel of the best, and simultaneously changes your method of pogo'ing AND healing in an area where you do a lot of pogo'ing and healingThis is one of the most egregiously retarded design decisions I've seen in a long time>The cage traps in Hunter's March can be broken by attacking them, so you unconsciously assume that you can use the trapped bench by attacking the trap until it breaks, but the switch is actually slightly off-screen in a hidden area>There are a lot of "blind falls" that results in you having to backtrack, usually for meagre rewards
>>719959289Yes, you just gotta jump good.
Is this fucking pogo to the top of greymore near sinners row even fucking possible, what is even the reward for this fucking engaging trash jump?
>>719958928>no coatwhen does this even happen?
Cogwork core song reminds me of a game.. i think it's chrono trigger not sure.
>>719958430>t. narcissist
>>719959372Yes, approach it from further up, not from the first balloon
>>719959285noice
>just saw a vid of how to reach the double jump>oh that's not ba->cold damageI'm not finishing this game.
>>719959416I don't even know if I have access to that
are 2 mask damage hazards really necessary? really TC?
>>719958604the only one i found annoying was the guy who throws three blades, only because he refuses to fly into hitting range, i loved the music and art direction of the place so the length of the area was a plus for me. sorry to hear about moorwing, my stupid ass accidentally skipped it with the flea quest
>>719958824That's all good until enemies can fly like the crows or the beastfly.
>>719959467If it's the one I'm thinking of (in the room that leads to Sinner's Rise), it's in the same room. You just jump and float from where the exit to SR is.
>>719959490Falling into lava should be instakill
>>719958797Never mind I beat him.
I love how many fucking gimmicks each areas has now.City of Tears was memorable because of the atmosphere.But Deepnest was memorable because it's such a fuckfest of an area.And almost every area in the game has that sort of shit now. I won't spoil it but there are certain areas in this game that will stick with me for a long time in the genre.
>>719959338Any advice? Please for real
>>719959512>the fat bird that throws bladeLeast favorite enemy so farI hate Team Cherry's obsession with flying niggers
>>719959543I think I see what you mean
>have 200 milliseconds to figure out whether to jump or not (and get hit for two damage when you get it wrong)>attack hitboxes exist before she even attacks>one attack auto-parries even though her parry animation hasn't even started yet>zooms all across the fucking room>this bitch is most definitely gonna have a second phaseI really dislike this fight. Last Judge was more fun in comparison and that's saying something.
>>719959587Anon, why are you trying to put the square peg in the round hole?If you can't reach something, you're not meant to get there yet.
For all the shit I read yesterday I thought Mount Fay would be hard
Imagine how bullshit I pantheon of all the Silksong would be
>>719959372You have to keep bouncing on the balloon until you can pogo off the gnat for a grand reward of two lines of baking instructions.
is this a joke? am I really supposed to go through the entire mist section to get back to phantom?please tell me I missed a bench
>hallownest>every turdfly has a bunch of money>white king can afford a limitless amount of sawblades>phwhatever>nobody has shit and charges for literally everything where did all the money go?
The fights are 50% longer than they should've been.
>that fucking fake bench in Hunters hihi haha funny
>>719959760i was mad
>3 tool slots>can use silk to recover tools instead of shards, and can do it might adventure>sick needle movesah shit I really liked the Reaper moves
>>719953386We want the Samurai Jack sequel audience
>>719959549based
>>719959549It WAS supposed to be instakill in the original HK area concept.
>>719959786Haha imagine how mad I was when I made it up there :)
>tfw people already finishing the game>still in act I with base hearts and silk
>>719953386>the noises hornet does while in the cage...*unzip*
>>719959820Doesnt it fuck healing?
>>719959769There's a bench in the Exhaust Organ, should be to the top left of the main hall.
>>719959852You can tell Team Cherry was just holding their powerlevel back in HKAnd now that they don't have to worry about money they just made a fucking CBT NES game
>>719959636I actually counted the frames. You have 310 milliseconds to react.What the actual fuck.
>>719959881i got a new heart near the end of chapter 2 lmao
>>719958824>actually it's fine that you take double damage from normal attacks because you can heal in mid-airThat's like the definition of a non-sequitur
>>719959903No the Up B is to make shit, B is still healing. RB is another tool, you lose a spell slot for an extra tool
>>719959881Most people finishing the game already just seem to be rushing it.
>>719959956>your healing move is simply better, heal 3 instead of 1 per sec, and can be used in far safer positions>uuhhhh doesn't countretard
>>719959923i don't remember any fetch quests in my cbt nes games
I'm not finding a lot of these bosses hard, but I'm finding them really satisfying to play against. Way less bullshit to deal with compared to Hollow Knight.
>>719959760Yeah I just found that out, gotta be shitting me
>>719959956Yes because mid-air heals are stupidly strong a majority of the time in this game
Doing phantom instead of last judge is way easier, wtf
>>719959820Suck ass because you will need to farm for 10 minutes after each boss attempt using 3 tools.
>>719959919what happened between hollow knight and this game to turn team cherry into such evil motherfuckers? i didnt even realize i was walking into a bossroom until the gate shut behind metime to get gangbanged by ghosts again i guess
>>719960029>your healing move is simply better, heal 3 instead of 1 per secOnly enemies start doing two masks damage instead of one a few hours into the game.
It's kinda incredible that it took them 7 years to make the most miserable, unfun and tedious metroidvania of all time. You can tell they were huffing their own farts the entire time.I hope they fucking die in a fire for ruining one of the only things I was excited about in my life.
>>719960032Their main inspirations are Faxanadu and Zelda 2.
>>719960105>1 heal when enemies hit 1 > 3 heal when enemies hit 2retard
>>719959992x doubt. Some anon have like 30 hours already
>>719959960> you lose a spell slot for an extra toolfuck that
/v/ should stick to gacha games from the looks of itcan't play a real game no more
>>719960069Anon, it's very clear you're still in act 1. Come back when you've reached act 2.>>719960143It takes 9 hits to heal 3 masks as opposed to the old 3 hits to heal 1 mask.The math is against you in Silksong. You are capable of doing basic math, yes?
Alright game, I understand. I'll fuck off to another zone.
Where is the item to use these fucking rings?
>>719953928>>719953928>>719953928
Where the FUCK is double jump
>>719960219there's no freeze resist or anything, you're supposed to go fast
>>719960149Yeah probably because nobody fucking says anything in this game and you're constantly checking old areas to see who moves where and what you're allowed to explore. There's a shooting range where the thief was locked up now. When did this happen? Why did this happen? Fuck if I know.
>>719960219You should push through, trust me
>>7199599291 hit confirms in street fighter games are anything from 140 to 170 milliseconds, jump ins are 400+ milliseconds310 milliseconds is more than enough time to react
>>719960295>backtracking questsdisgusting
>>719960029I still don't see how this justifies me taking two damage from lightly brushing against a completely stationary big rat's buttcheek
>>719960337Street Fighter is for actual autistic people who do nothing but play Street Fighter all day every day.
>>719960216>basic mathdo the basic math to how long it takes to heal 3 masks in HK and how long it takes to heal 3 masks in Silksong, please.
>>719960260Pain and misery.
>>719960394You aren't healing as often in HK because 2 hits don't put you into one shot territory
>>719960536Yeah, you aren't healing as often in HK as well because you can DPS race most bosses with quick attack as long as you aren't braindead.
>>719960394Healing in Silksong requires you to survive thrice the amount of time fighting an enemy than in Hollow Knight.Enemies also do two masks of damage per hit in Silksong as opposed to one mask in Hollow Knight.>HURRR BUT U CAN HEAL IN MID AIR DURRR
>>719960579>you can DPS race most bossesYou literally can't shitposter-kun. Most bosses are a patience game, because just blindly attacking them will get you caught in their attacks.
