Ignore shitposters and discuss the game.
Lace sex
ignored the shitposters?you didn't beat the game
Any ideas on how to not shitpost? Do I like praise the good parts of the game or something?
SEVEN YEARS
Reminder that TC are aussies and Hornet is referring to friends and family when she writes "mates"
>>720752727Reminder that Hornet is a canon whore
Stop posting Lace.I don't want the devs to think we want a game with her as main character.
>>720752727>Cogflies sing, sleep, play on the waterThey're so cute, bros.
Anyone else find that weird ledge above the coral tower that just...doesn't do anything? I kept going back there thinking something would be there but it's just...arbitrary. DLC are entrance maybe? I also found a weird room in Bilewater that is just a very elaborate dead end with nothing else in it.
>>720753054Would you play a co-op Horet and Lace game where you choose who to play as?
>>720752926By playing for more than 30 minutes and thinking critically for yourself instead of parroting other peoples gripes just because the game is popular
What am I supposed to do here?
>>720753054who should be next main? there are no more charismatic designs
Holy shit, putrified ducts is so fun. Some of the most fun enemies to go up against in that area, especially the flying ones. And the maggot water is seriously awesome
>>720752727Lace sucks.She is a boring character, and her final boss fight is a bunch of bullshit.I wish we had a choice to kill her instead.But this game is made by commie faggots, so alas.
>>720753140its just a power source bro, whatever you're looking for is probably somewhere else
>>720753187I'm sure you'll enjoy Bilewater then, friend. It's like Putrified Ducts, but 3 times bigger and there is 3 times more maggot water and flying enemies.Also traps. And boss.
Discord working overtime, I see.
>>720753140Nothing. If you remember the other nests, sometimes you need to activate that power source. But it's implied this place either never had the generator turn off, or someone else found it first.
>>720753187Putrefied ducts is short as fuck. You can power through it.
do I really need to do this for the needle upgrade
>>720752727don't know why jannies want to erase those threads so muchevidently people still want to talk about this game seeing how many threads are active at any point and how those comfy threads always reach bump limit, better have one real thread for it than 4-5 threads saying how the game is bad because they got filtered
>>720752727They're so cute together, I require a bonus mode/DLC where you play as Lace
>>720753381yeahIts not so bad if you kill everything on the way there and not rest at a benchdetour via the spa to heal if you fuck it up
>>720753381go through the mist it's easier
>>720753190You kind of had to save her regardless of how you felt about her. GMS was going to level the whole kingdom. And if you mean "make it something else," voided out GMS sounds even worse to fight and shade lord would not make any sense
>>720753054your next game is a tag team where you have forced hornet or lace only sections
>cogflies beat the deer boss entirely on their ownYeah, I'm taking these off, no way this shit doesn't get nerfed.
>>720753132but the general gripes are right/
>>720753286what
>>720753381YupPro tip: speed is much less important than not getting hit. Getting hit instantly deletes like a 1/5 - 2/5ths of your total time
>Lace fight >equip parryYep. It's kino time
>>720753381Do not go through mist, this path is more or less what I did, and I did it first try, just take care of the enemies before hand so you get familiar with the path, and then be careful not to bump into walls while running.
>>720753514Cogflies are the mimic tear of Silksong
>>720753630Its kinda poetic that you use her sister's ability.
Siklsong
>she’s right behind me isn’t she
WOW I JUST HECKING LOVE THESE OBTUSE PLATFORMING SECTIONS THAT I DON'T EVEN REALLY KNOW IF I CAN COMPLETE WITH MY CURRENT EQUIPMENT (OR IF IT WILL LEAD TO ANY REWARD, BECAUSE HALF OF THEM DON'T EITHER)!IT SHOWS THAT THE COCKSUCKING DEVELOPERS REALLY INTENDED THIS GAME FOR HARDCORE GAMERS THAT LOVE A CHALLENGE, NOT THOSE FUCKING REDDITOID SCRUBS. THERES NOTHING MORE THAT I LOVE THAN SMASHING MY HEAD REPEATEDLY INTO CEMENT FOR NO REASON AT ALL, BECAUSE I'M A REAL GAMER.TAKE THAT, REDDITORS.
>>720753630>Can't parry Lace's parrykino but also fuck off
>>720753640Nah, at least the flies don't attract the boss' attention, still op though.
>>720753714Bait used to be believable
>>720753714Retard webm of a retard being retarded
>>720753714Bro, your hookshot?
>>720753714If you can't do this, don't even bother with Mister Mushroom.
>>720753707Cute.
>>720753707CUTE
>>720753714rename the game to Hollow Knight: Hookshot so people don't forget to spam it in the second half
Nvm, I see not giving attention to obvious shitposters is impossible to /v/irgins.
>>720753714>that webmso this is who is calling this game unfair..
Am I bad at metroidvanias or is some of the content in this game a little too well hidden?
>>720753891The hookshot genuinely trivializes a lot of bosses too, people bitch and moan about how much bosses teleport around while they have an i-frame damaging move that spans half the arena that costs 1 silk to use
His name was Pilby!
Why aren't YOU using the witch crest?>Strong charged attack that you can spam attack during it to increase its damage>Heal needs to be used close to enemies but its really fast and deals damage>Three fucking blue socketsDon't tell me your a wanderer user...
>>720753985You could have saved him, Anon. Why did you let him die? You're a monster.
>>720753714I love all posts and webmsKeep struggling king
>>720754065Does it have a vertical pogo?If not = don't care
>>720754065the heal doesn't make sense in a contact damage game
>>720754065I haven't used a charged attack a single time in my 60 hours in Pharloom. I don't use tools. I don't use any crest other than the Hunter. I barely even use silk spells.You did not beat the game.
>>720754120It has a decent one.
>>720753962I set out to 100% it without looking up anything and managed it. I don't consider myself that great. Definitely a couple tricky things though.
>>720752932At least it doesn't move around. I never noticed it.
>>720753714This webm is some high quality bait
>>720754065People don't experiment with the crests, they just use wanderer or reaper until they see a video on youtube about an op build with another crest.Me? Well, I'm a hunter only chud.
>>720753962Whisp woods definitely is.
>>720753962You just have to get used to what to look for. Holes in ceilings that are otherwise hidden have slightly noticeably different interactions with light/your attacks, cracked walls or hidden ledges look just slightly off. My rule of thumb is to just swing if you're ever unsure, you will always get immediate feedback on if you found something or not. The only exception I'm finding so far is a few weird rooms/dead ends with high ceilings that have holes, I'm not sure how you're supposed to 'know' in those cases.>>720754065I have been a witch crest enthusiast since the second I unlocked it. Beat every act 3 boss including lost lace with it, refused to take it off. I will speed run to it in later playthroughs with the exception of steel soul.
>>720753145THE Holliow Knight of Hollow Knight fame.
>>720753635mist is much easier thoeasy to skip all enemies, only time where it's a bit risky is in sinner's road on the screen that leads to the bench, but you can easily exit and reenter the area to reset mobs
I still don't know the ideal use case for each crest.
>>720754065I'm an architectGOD, tools are just a side benefit. I basically beat Lost Lace with just charged attacks, throwing on longclaw and pin badge makes its absurd damage that much more spammable and long ranged
Alright, in the end Lost Lace took about 10 tries. Not the worst considering my Silksong record.1 hour for 1% completion, nice. A lot of those hours are just game opened while I was AFK, but still.I couldn't find 2 fleas and couldn't find the last needle upgrade (assuming it exists).Don't know what else could I possibly miss, 7% is kinda chunky. I even got Mr Mushroom cutscene.
>>720754065I used in boss fights where healing with beast crest was too unreliable.
>>720752932
>>720754382wouldn't the mist take longer? you have to pause and do the thing with the thing for like 4 screens
>>720754065Is Witch best used with multi-binder + quick heal + claw mirror?
Just tested this against Lace. I don't think it works at all.Dash is longer yes but speed is the same. You can't dash out of her ground parry. There is no difference. But seems like you can dash out under flea juice...with normal dash lol. Fucking TC man. 7 years.
NOOOOO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!I NEED TO SAVE THAT SILK FOR LATER, OK????WHY WOULD I WASTE PRECIOUS SILK ON SKILLS AND HOOKING INTO ENEMIES WHEN I NEED IT TO HEAL MYSELF IN PANIC AND THEN GET HIT MID HEAL AND LOSE ALL THAT SILK ANYWAYS?????
>>720754427>93 hoursanon did you leave that shit open for an entire day and a half and not do anything
Post YFW you don't have the fag testicles in your house!
>>720754565It's worth only to check out it's funny animation. 0 practical use.
>>720754517Anon, try going back.
>>720754068After I found out how to save him I tried saving the Fearful Pilgrim by never using the bellway in Bone Bottom. She still just ends up dead in The Marrow after a certain point. Kinda disappointing desu. I take it there's no way to save the sick guy in Pilgrim's Rest either.
>>720754406Hunter: When the game forces you to use it for a segmentWanderer: Every other occasionI dunno about every other crest never used em
>hookshot flying enemy>still end up taking contact damage pain
>>720754584For half a day a couple of times.I didn't use any guides mind you, a lot of those hours were shit like trying to figure out how to get this or that specific flea. ... and I still couldn't get the last 2 lmao. Not for the lack of trying too.
>>720754565It's useful because it leaves you facing forward to attack without wasting input or time.
>>720754565I never used this because I already knew that I was going to misinput in a clutch situation and just dash right into the boss
>>720754678How does it feel playing with the best moveset and the worst slots?What do you even use 4 yellow slots for, and how do live with 1 yellow and 2 blue ones?I wanna know. Must be painful.
>>720754737If it's a big enemy, don't hook too low or dash back immediately after.
>>720754793Just move your fat finger.
>>720754213>>720752932Why does that happen during production ? Does the guy in charge of editing just forgets to turn on the mouse hidden config ?
>>720754835Yellow slots: compass, sprint boots, blue dice, magnet broochBlue slots: Faster heal and whatever you feel like, I usually go for the hookshot damage one (or the silk regen one if exploring)
>>720753714Bro is never gonna see nameless town...
>>720754835not him, but weighted belt, ascendant's grip, magnetic dice and ofc the compass, pretty typical wanderer buildthe blues are reserve bind, longclaw and quick healmost optimal IMOseriously though, don't play wanderer without weighted belt
>>720753405Well, they are getting to the point of being a general. Concurrent threads that are made back to back are meant to go on /vg/ for a reason, because they can often be disruptive.
>>720754213>Silksong has as much polish as pokemon sword and shieldJesus Christ what were they doing for 7 years.
Why do I feel like wandererfags are getting filtered more than reaperbabies?
Any hints for the puzzle at the top of cogworks?
>>720755023>seriously though, don't play wanderer without weighted beltI did and I 100% the game
>>720754580My usual panicked thoughts in the beginning of the game were that since the needle barely did any damage to the enemies, I thought the silk skill wouldnt be that much stronger in comparison.
>>720753714I accidentally cheated this part lolThe game bugged for a split moment and I was able to stand on the spikes and just double jump up lmaoGet outskilled nigger
>want to screencap sexy Lace in the cutscene>press f12>cutscene skipped
>>720753579Yup, though if you are going fast enough, even taking off those 2 minutes leaves more then enough. I got in with 30 seconds left after taking an unlucky hit at the very end of the run. Clawline and Double Jump save so much time on the Blasted Steps it is unreal.
>>720752727tranny game
>>720755126there's no logic
>>720755126Just try for a second before asking for help, that's a good tip.
>>720755158It's a bug, anon.
>>720755143It's much easier to do DPS when you're not sliding away from the enemy, especially with Wanderer's subpar reach
did you have a letdown in any way with the game? for me is that there isnt a place as pretty as green path or atmospheric as pic related, i just finished act 2 and the game didnt have a moment were i stopped to appreciate the artstyle or music
>>720754269Reaper felt most natural to me so I used it for most of my runI intend to do playthroughs later using only specific crests as much as possible
>>720755213I already did that
>>720755126Start with the bottom parts. There's only one alternative in each column that doesnt continue downwards.
>>720755238The story sucks dick.The whole Lace plot was rushed as hell.
>>720755126don't overthink it and the lights don't matter
>>720755204Good tranny game for once. Last one was Disco Elysium. Faggot commie trannies sometimes do deliver, what can you do.
>>720755121Reapers can play it safe while wanderers are incentivized to be greedy.
>>720755220you will fug the bug and you will be happy
>>720755220Really? It wasnt bugged for meI just waited until the "press button to skip" propmt went away so I didn't accidentally skip it
>>720755238I thought the OST was extremely forgettable for the most part. Only one I really remember is the clockwork core theme
>>720755249Ok, here's the answer: just match shit
where do I find the worth specimen for the dude on greymoor??
>>720755278Final cutscene was donkey's ass. Act 2 ended much better. Lace is shit.Knight's cameo was just pointless fanservice.
Beating GMS while cursed is fucking impossible. Any tips?
>>720755238Yep the atmosphere really didn't compare. Act 1 needed larger areas and more exploration imo, it was a bunch of very short tight areas that felt way too video gamey.
>>720755238They fucked up most of the game with Reddit-tier decisions like maggot water, long run backs, big chungus bench traps and every other manner of cancer. Boss fights are top notch and general movement tech is fun but holy fuck this game has so much bullshit dragging it down that it damn near kills it for me at times.It's worse than Hollowknight for me.
>>720755375https://youtu.be/CDAuas3fO8AIt's a giga banger.
>>720755238The very first zone of the game is prettier than the entirety of green path, so this is path.
>>720755407Why are you doing that while cursed
>>720755407You have to be patient on that one. Every attack of hers is easy to avoid. And you can attack the ground spikes to make them go away.
>>720755238entering blasted step was cool, it felt like an endgame area
>>720753042Whore-netだけに
>>720753630Yep. It was kino.
>>720755387You need to get pregnant. He is an abortion doctor.
>>720755238I really thought lost lace was just the prelude to a final fight, not the final fight itself.After fighting her twice already, i'm pretty much done with her. Her second fight felt really engaging, but by the third i had my fill
>>720755407It's your first playthrough?Go unfuck yourself and stop being such a sweaty tryhard.If it's not a first playthrough, you should've gotten good enough already to beat it no problem, dunno what else to say.
>>720755238There were a few good wide shots of the citadel that I liked. Some of the outer zones could have used similar expansive scenes to establish the scale of the setting.
>>720752932Holy shit, I wouldn't have even noticed if it wasn't pointed out because it ended up with the same illumination as the motes in the air.
How do I access wisp thicket?
>>720755407Second phase is easier, hit the spikes and just don't jump too much unless you need to, if you keep jumping is easy to get caught by needles at a bad time.
>>720755469Do you just add "reddit" and "big chungus" to your posts and hope that the end result makes sense somehow?
>>720755375For me, it's the Bellhart theme.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkNbFtCd_DA
>>720755491So this is bait*
>>720755238Act 3 having pretty much no new areas to explore except Lost Verdania was by far the biggest letdown for me. I understand it would have been a lot of work but Team Cherry was already fucking doing that by making Act 3 in the first place. Feels like they already had the game complete and just decided to tack on Act 3 for the lulz
>>720755649check greymoor
>>720755494>He doesn't know
>>720755716It's alright but as far as "home town" themes go it's no Dirtmouth https://youtu.be/NSlkW1fFkyo?list=PLmOldskd2VbL7_t-NE9p6rEboq_v0AHko
gentelmenI did it
>>720755667Keep replying to him, bro. I'm sure it will make him stop spamming these threads.
First try. 100% Steel Soul + 100% speedrun in one go.
>>720753381yeah it's easier to go through the sinners and mist, just equip cogflies to not interact with with flying enemies or clean them up beforehand
>>720755293Yeah I figured it out I though the lights were illuminating certain notes or some shit lol
>>720755754Act 3 is pretty much post-game in my eyes. It's just "Yeah now everythings fucked and you can fight new bosses" with a few minor areas thrown in there
>>720755407Focus on dodging the needles above all else. I turned the music down so the sound cues would be more prominent. Get a sense of how long her cooldown is between attacks - don't try to hit her when cooldown is up as you can get caught in a bad position.
>>720755812Congrats!
>>720755836I know why you have Fractured Mask equipped anon, now do it without Alt-F4.
>>720752932Huh I never noticed when I was playing
>>720755238Green Prince storyline is completely nonsensical to an almost baffling degree, you can fix it entirely by just having him not die at the end of the questline, giving you a memento, and leaving Pharloom but they didn't do that so they must have thought that shitpile quest was completeTowns are terrible, game improves dramatically if you go back to them as little as possibleLace 3x is not an interesting final villainGame is coy as fuck about ever referencing HK probably because if they brought up HK more it begs the question as to why Hornet never attempts to contact or get help from The Knight when the Void starts getting involvedNeedolin is so much worse than Dream Nail. I found it actually impressive how banal and pointless the Needolin dialogue is. I can't remember a single NPC with any kind of real information to be gleaned from their singing; they just sing about what their character is on the surface-levelProgression is all over the place, crests taking so long to acquire being the worst offenderSoundtrack is "solid" but the only song that really stuck out to me was Choral ChambersStunned bosses still dealing contact damage is bizarreAct 3 doesn't change enough about the game
>>720755968It shows up for barely a second
>>720755836i guess i'm a shitter but i literally can't imagine myself successfully doing a steel soul run with the amount of times i died and the amount of shit you have to do for 100%With Hollow Knight it always seemed feasible from the get go
>>720755407Use Harpoon a lot
I kinda miss him
>>720754912that means they recorded the rendered or preview video instead of just using that rendered video. How did that happen is beyond me
>GMS>dat OSTHOLY FUCKING KINO Orz
>>720755056They'll die down with time. Jannies are severely underestimating how long the game is, there are people who are still barely into Act 3 who likely want to talk about the game after they beat it.
is there a cheese for Groal?nothing about this is fun
What's the hardest boss in the game?
>>720753405>don't know why jannies want to erase those threads so muchThe /v/ mods don't play video games.Except for Abib. Dude fucking LOVES Smash.
>>720756112Yeah, I'm fine with them being on /v/ still. It will probably just be another week and then discussion will mostly stop until DLC pops up.
>>720756142bottom right corner, for rEaSonS the left side doesn't have a safe zone
>>720753970>costs 1 silk to useIt's refunded if you hit too
>>720753381yesyou can cheese it by clearing all the enemies on the route beforehand. then, without resting, start the delivery.
>>720755754When I entered Coral Tower I expected it to be an entire biome to explore and other 2 hearts to do the same. Then was disappointed to find out it had just a good entrance and was just a bunch of arenas back to back and others weren't that much more interesting.
>>720756223you talking IN the maggots?
>clear path for delivery>get back to bellhart>instinctively sit at the benchI'M SO RETARDED AHHHHHHHHHHHH
wow lace 3 is a shit fighther attacks are easy to dodge the hardest part is her literally teleporting into your face making you take 2 contact damage one more try and i'm just gonna cheat it (use tools)
>>720753714
>>720756142stay in the water and only dodge his projectiles and dive
>>720755407Be more patient, focus on the needles instead of attacking.Don't pogo attack, it will fuck up your positioning.Listen to the sound cue of her slide attack to dodge it.Get lucky with the screen-wide 3 dmg attack.In phase 2, hit the spikes from the side to lower them, you don't need to pogo on them.The fight went from a 6/10 to 9/10 for me after beating her while cursed, it forces you to actually engage with the mechanics.
>>720754406reaper for everything except juggling fleashunter for juggling fleassometimes I thought the game really wants me to use hunter pogo on a boss but reaper pogo is so wide I just kept using it
>>720756267be one with the bugs, and you will find salvation
Is there a new game +?
I hate the chef in blighttown he's such a fat fucking faggot
>>720756223 Yeah, the maggot pit actually has a weird blind spot on the lower right if you wedge yourself in just right. The AI struggles to track you strongly there unless you aggro something too hard. Stay crouched, bait a lunge, then dash left and back in - it's jank but it works. "Intended."
>>720755407>>720756308Oh yeah, and use your clawline a lot, since you can't use your silk on anything else.
>>720756148These 2 guys
The Reaper dash attack jump is so fun to use all the time that it BTFOs every other crest in fun value
>>720756223>>720756302>>720756338baffled that they nerfed easy babby bosses but left this absoltue cancer untouched.Worst boss in the game by far.Fuck, worst boss in BOTH games.
>>720756148Lost Lace or Karmelita, I don't think anything else really comes close. Maybe Beastfly if you do it as early as possible
>>720755056You can't stop me from making twitter/eceleb/youtube screencap ragebait Silksong threads and derail them into Silksong game discussion (SHOCK).Also>AI general
>>720756013It was probably in a few screens when they were compositing and didn't realize they hadn't moved it. I'm pretty sure ones like in the Pokemon example weren't just there for the compositing, but they actually screen captured the rendered video for some god awful reason.
>huntress>makes me do all the hunting for her
>>720755962>don't panic quitPost cheevo.
>>720756413actually he's kinda easy if you stay in the water
>>720755238I thought that everything involving Nyleth in Act 3 was rather weak, sorry Seth. I did Karmelita first and I prefer that sort of difficult, 1v1 boss, so I was a little disappointed that the two remaining ones were basically gimmicks, although I do understand why Team Cherry designed it that way. Other than that, the game was 10/10 for me.
>>720756383
>>720753714>Has double jump unlocked but doesn't know how to bounce off spikes???
>>720756148Karmelita gave me the most trouble, but Lost Lace is a strong contender with the amount of shit she spews on your screen.
>>720756383>he
>>720756576too many fat ass bosses whose main attack is wagging their fat ass at you for double damage silly hitbox contact
What's a good playthough to watch from a streamer/youtuber? I've already finished the game 100% and I want to compare my experience, speedrunfags need not apply.
>>720755836Congrats.>>720756024That's why you use the mask, it's honestly almost designed for that, when it breaks, pause the game and quit, still very risky though.
thank you miyazaki
>Get cursed.>Do the ending.>Talk to Bellhart guy, he tells me to talk to the hermit under Bellway>Hermit is absent because i did the Silk and Soul quest.Am i fucked? Where do i go?
>>720755238The main narrative is short as fuck through act 2. Game feels like it’s shaped like a hamburger
>>720752727i've done 100% and i'm missing only these four things. are they for the delivery quests?
>>720756576>>720756634You know he's MtF, pumping himself full of estrogen and getting BBLs
>>720754406here is my definitive list after beating the last boss over and over
Did they lose the original musician from HK? Silksong's music is 1/10th as good as HK's music.
>>720756668In my opinion, it's only worth it to watch streamers who are suffering. So just watch Peeve, who spent literally 10 hours yesterday stuck on the Savage Beastfly refight.
>>720756597is there anywhere you HAVE to bounce off spikes besides the very end of the platforming section at the very top of the map?
>>720756686Go fix it, dummy.
>>720756512Oh I didn't do it, too difficult.You didn't either though.
>>720756576>>720756634>just tacked the fat fuck to death
>>720756686You can fix it, search around the room
>>720756686Look around that room more, very carefully.
>>720756732Architect fucking sucksWitch was so close to greatness but it's let down by not having a real heal for bosses
>>720756714Talk to more NPCs, they'll give you hints.
>>720756272Kek
Should I do this
>>720756732I beat Lace 3 with the shaman crest just spamming pale claws.
>>720754406Just use whatever feels fun to you
>>720756732Accurate. I really wanted to like shaman but the lack of tool slots and forced ground healing really kills it
>>720755238No White Palace + Path of Pain. The ascent to Nameless Village is not even close.
>>720756272I did it in the first game with the delicate flower too. Shit's was way harder as well. Don't sweat it, just DO IT AGAIN.
>>720756714the innkeeper in greymoor might give you a hint, maybe the guy in first chapel too iirc
>>720756503Because she's a huge pussy, as you'll soon discover.
>>720756503She needs to stay there to protect her youngIf you don't do it they eat herThe REAL Question is, what are all these Masks in the Simps nest?
>>720756897yes
>>720756917What if you just never get hit
>>720756897If you wanna get to act 3 yes.
>>720756897You have to, to get the good ending.
>>720756142also there's a healing room on the runback here3 mothleafs that respawn when you leave
Despite how good Cogwork Core and Choral Chambers are, absolutely nothing comes close to Queen's Gardens. You really just can't compare Silksong's OST to Hollow Knight's.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_g-JmMfpF4
>>720756897You need to do them all eventually. I think it also unlocks more wish requests.
>>720756959I always go back to the very beginning to talk to the guy at the chapel and he never has anything new to sayVery disappointed.
Gonna do another playthrough to get cursed lost lace ending
Herrah the Beast was FAT
>>720756897Yes, you basically want to progress all towns and do their quests.
>>720756968Yknow I never found this and thought you meant that the fucking pervert flea with the spa has a secret murdercave
>>720757062>cursed lost lacethats a thing?
>>720756943Mount Fey and Nameless Village are both more difficult than White Palace.Thank god they don't have anything similar to Path of Pain, FUCK this shit, it wasn't enjoyable.People who enjoy this kind of shit should go play Celeste.
>>720756909whaaa is beast actually good?
Do you need to do all the deliveries to get the good ending?
>>720757109idk, nobody autistic enough to bother i guess
>>720757070Would you?
>>720756968This confused the fuck out of me because the first time you visit in Act 3, your delicious grubs have been taken over by the void and he's just missing, but that mask in the back looks like his (and is still there when he returns). I have no idea. If you play the sneedolin, there's some dialogue about>Who to be?So either he has an identity crisis and these are other masks, or he's really just a schizo who lives in a nest with his dead relatives.
>>720757070>Hornet will get this fat when she's older.Grim.
>>720757154... well, good luck.
>>720756468>XIVtroon trying to shit up threads of games people actually playAren't you supposed to be running a defense for the tranny devs rn?
>>720756998the needle attacks are kinda slow and bad the spell damage is nice but you're only going to be spending silk on nails 3 spell slots is overkillsilkstorm is good it scales way harder dealing 10.5 needle hits of damage on shaman but it's hard to land
>>720755238>did you have a letdown in any way with the game?the game's story/lore/characters and all the similar elements resulted in a surrounding shrug for methe 1st game's stuff with the hollow knight i thought was poignant and kinda sad even if it was a tad melodramatic at times. the silk and bell and singing and lace stuff in silksong is just whatever to me
opinions on father of the flame?
>has the best moveset>has the worst healsasuga...
>>720752926The game has good animation and funny bug noises. The bosses are actually fun if you ignore everything else about them.
>>720752727>comfy until you say something negative about the game then you are just a hater!!!!!!!!
This shit is useless right?
>>720757138>cherrypicked webm>*dies offscreen*Do not believe Beastfags lies. They want you to suffer.
Act 3 is autism. This is bullshit.
>>720757195Not as grim as Karmelita, this lazy bitch really let herself go.
Where's the best rosaries grind spot in act 3? My tall boys near the clockwork fight are not cutting it anymore.
>>720757284Very good with Wanderer crest, alright with other crests.
>>720753145They need to do something besides metroidvania. Like a Kingdom Hearts style game. They suck at vanias but are good at linear combat games.
>>720755238I had a ton of moments where I stopped to appreciate the art and music, but not one specifc place that reached that high of the city of tears, which is visual and audio perfectionIt can't be matched
>>720757284I used it for most of the rest of the game after I got it on Reaper because it made the charge attack gigantic and great for swatting down flying enemies
>>720757316
>>720756968Masks are for giving bugs definition. You can have multiple masks for different things. The Mask maker in HK had 3 different designs, presumably so that he would make different looks for masks. Thus you can infer that Styx has a mask he uses when talking to Hornet and being a "slave" and others which he uses for nurturing the Silkeater Queen.
>>72075728410% range, pretty much just a crutch for flea challengesanyone telling you it changed their gameplay and made it better are just coping, they got good while having it equipped and never removed it
>>720757284mandatory on wanderer and architect just ok on the other crests
>>720757138Its tool slots suck and the pogo takes A LOT to get used to but it's amazing otherwise
>>720757284>allows you to minimize contact damage, basically a long nail from HK>also makes platforming easier>useless
>>720756109HFKFK
>>720757316act 3 is just kickstarter rewards and rehashes, totally optional bonus content
>>720757119Mt. Fey was fun looking back on it, but it was too short. That's a problem I've noticed in a lot of areas. Short jaunts with lots of content packed into the areas, but not long enough. And it was very enjoyable in HK. Sorry that you can't figure out how to platform.
>>720754565There are very specific enemies that the brace is applicable for using against and you can always just jump or dash away with almost equal efficiency. You can use it to run up walls but that's also kinda not that useful
>>720757210Yeah, the story was background noise for me in this game.I genuinely don't know what's happening beyond "There's this god but the god's influence is turning everyone into puppets" and I'm not sure I even care to know moreIt doesn't help that most of the lore delivery feels like it was written by an ESL trying to write a Haiku but they only half remember what a haiku is supposed to be
>>720755407Close the distance with the harpoon.
>>720757316>kill void hearts to stop void enemies (random infection can still happen but you should just kill while they transform)>bosses are the same get to phase 3 then spam toolsWhat's so hard about it?
>>720757284The only crest I can see this making sense with is Wanderer because its range is agonizingly short. With other crests there's really no need.
>>720756968He was pretending the whole time
>>720757415At the point you get it if you are still having platforming issues you are literally retarded.
>>720757259Felt more like a time wasting pogo fight rather than a boss.
>>720757431I did the Path of Pain. As I said, not a fan. Mount Fey and Nameless Village are good exactly because they aren't as long.
>>720757259Cool side challenge, trivial with the right build.
I like the towns, and the sidequests
>>720756784I just did though. Steam gave me the cheevo.Yes it's fucking hard lmao.
>>720757538Everyone is a retard here, don't see your point bruddah.
>>720756825>Architect sucksHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHADude, even aside from being the heavy tool user and the damage those things do when invested in properly. You have THE best charge attack in the game. 120 damage, capable of one shotting a bunch of mobs. It is one of the best ways to trivialize encounters and I used it for the entirety of the Citadel when I unlocked it.
>>720757138It's good, but it's just outclassed by Wanderer unless you like the pogo>Wanderer's gimmick is that it has high attack speed, but no range>in reality, the range doesn't matter, so it's just really good at dealing damage and generating silk all the time>Beast's gimmick is that the bind is actually a buff, increasing your damage and attack speed and allowing you to rapidly regenerate silk to do it again>but Wanderer gets the attack speed for free and doesn't have to worry about the awkward healingThe best way to play Beast is to treat your bind like a souped-up flea brew. Pop up it whenever you can't hit the boss, get in there, beat ass, and pop it again. The pogo has so much horizontal momentum that it helps you close the gap against any boss that would run away.I just think it's neat.
>>720756634My theory on how le pronouns get used in hollow knight is that its pheromone based, and lugoli stinks so bad nobody can actually tell what they're supposed to be smelling
>>720757503>>720757386>>720757360Yeah, I don't use wanderer. Makes sense tho.
>>720756732Swap Shaman with Reaper and I fully agree. The DPS on reaper is a fucking joke.
>>720757634>120 damageFound the guide shitter.Not surprising for an architect user though.
>>720757259Intresting fightOnly people who said it was bad were people who can't into pogos
>>720757574Me too :)
What are the requirements for the true ending?
>>720757634surethe moveset is also hot garbage
>>720756825Architect is the strongest crest by far. Broken even.Wanderer at least requires you to have a certain amount of silk in order to get the crits, architect is just win-win.
>>720757259I liked it, but I'm good at pogo'ing and was disappointed with how easy it was after people spent so much time hyping it up as frustrating
>>720754406Reaper is the best all around option if you're still discovering new areas or trying to figure out enemy attack patterns or need to platform a lot. Decent range, very good for aerial combat. Only problem is the subpar attack speed and the diagonal upwards attacks take some getting used to.If you've figured the game out and want to maximize DPS I think Wanderer is best. Every other crest has some kind of glaring weakness that fucks it up, I really don't like most of the pogo attacks in this game. Even Hunter gets on my nerves because of it.
Is Seth bugged or something? The nail just completely phases through him sometimes.The boss fight is cancer enough with him teleporting right into you without this bullshit along with him blocking the hits that do connect.
>>720757651KekStinkmaxxingStandard italian mode
>>720757359Tall boys still best spot, other places where you could farm rosaries also got nered massively.
No one can agree on what the requirements for the Eva upgrades are.
>>720757876I noticed this as well, but it felt more like I couldn't parry himHas anyone actually parried Seth successfully?
>>720757784Help the fleas and do all the side quests you can
>>720757856Reaper is the shitter crest for shitters who can't into a proper crest
>>720757807HAHAHAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7AmT_p8Pccno one believes you
>>720757784Get to Act 3 by doing all town board quests, collecting all the NPC Fleas and half the hidden fleas, and finding the Pale Lake, then doing the Songclave questthenplay Act 3 until you get the Passing of the Age quest, then do thatnothing else matters, you're good to finish the main quest and end the game at that point
>>720757784Finish all non-courier side quests, including moving the Flea Caravan to its final location, which is what trips a lot of people up. It's a well hidden area, and you have to find 22 out of 30 fleas to make it move there. Fortunately, in that same area, there's an NPC that you can pay to mark the locations of fleas on your map. Afterwards, you'll have guidance from the Songclave mayor.
>>720757784No one knows for sure, most people say you need all the fleas, but I did without finding them all, just try doing all the sidequests and eventually it should pop up in bellhart.
>>720757359Take the courier pill (now that it's been buffed) or just grind the tall boys with the thief items equipped. The Pilgrim's Rest delivery is like 0 effort, takes 1m30s, and gives you 180 rosaries.
>>720757965wow you can do so much damagestill feels like shit to playI'm sorry you can only play games by following "the meta" and looking up guides instead of just playing a way that's actually fun and engaging.
>>720757912I'm pretty sure it's based on how many slots you've unlocked.At least the last upgrade is based on that, I was at 99% and got her to activate when I unlocked every crest slot
>>720757912It's how many memory lockets you've used
>nooo if u did quit load u didnt beat steel soul>devs actually said they are fine with quit loading to bench>put actual save checkpoints in places where they dont want you to warp to benches>there are moment where quit and load is disabled so clearly technology is thereFace it losers, its valid strategy, only people who won't do it are streamers grasping for content.
Coral Tower was cool and the boss was fun. Not sure what everyone was bitching about.
>>720758014You can get 250 in that same amount of time just by running the top farm area dude
>>720758031Cool. Now come up for an argument for why I should care how other people think I should play the game to begin with.
>>720757965>cogflies>tacks>poisonWe can all agree that this is this game's dedicated "You didn't beat the game" build
>>720757784Finish all quests and get the flea caravan to their final destination will unlock the guy in songclave to give you the quest to start the true ending. It's kinda bullshit since there is no relation between doing those things and the guy giving you the quest at all.
>>720757953Architect is the shitter crest because it's a huge crutch for actual shitters that are bad at the game.
>>720757912It's slot 2 memory discs for first hunter upgrade, a 3rd for the first Vesticrest, 10 for the second Vesticrest and max out all crests for Hunters last upgrade.
>>720757965ok screw everything this is valid and fun
>>720758031Wish they just added "return to bench" ability or whatever if they are allowing it anyway
>>720758031Why play a permadeath mode if you're just going to skirt around the permadeath?You're basically just playing a -1 health mode at that point
>>720758024It feels fine to play. I've gone around using nothing but nail damage and architect still out paces half of the other crests and feels good. It's my favorite general combat crest.
RUBBING YOUR FACE AGAINST EVERY WALL IN EVERY PITCH BLACK MAZE TO FIND MAJOR AREAS AND BOSSES IS FUN GUYSITS SO FUN
>*BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPPPP*
>>720757070Looking good!
>>720758123But running around is fun :)
>>720758196this but unironically
>>720758031It just makes it so the whole challenge is in this halfway state of being actually challenging and just a game of "make sure you quit when you hit 3 health bro"
>>720757965lmao imagine the shard consumption
>>720756142Throw your explosive projectiles into his mouth when he does the succ
>>720758031>there are moment where quit and load is disabled so clearly technology is there...which?
>>720758196This game doesn't have any really dark areas, at least that I found yet, you can always see enough.
>>720758158I dont disagree, but it's gotten fairly late into the midgame. Reaper could be the first you get tho and it would carry you to shartchitect
AFK BoomerGOD reporting in!
>>720758221Isn't this just a robot ant?
>>720758268It is extravagant, but considering the 50 to 80 conversion on rosaries to shards, you really don't have to try to farm to make up the loss. You would have to go through over 2k rosaries and a hundred deaths to use up enough shards from empty on all three to have to go farm rosaries again.
>>720757138Yes. Bind being a super flea brew (+atkspeed, +range, AND +dmg because fuck it) that you can keep up 100% of the time is insane. Balanced by pogo being extra difficult, limited tool slots, and not being useful in sections without enemies.
>>720756682ahh so you did it with savequitting. Honestly i won't blame anyone for doing it that way for the cheevo, but i stopped caring about the cheevos to just do it for that

>>720758159I have last Hunter upgrade and I don't even have all crests yet (missing Shaman) and still a couple of closed slots in my last crest
>>720758362The tunnel mazes are the ones were you can only see in a small area around Hornet. They are intentionally dark. Most of Choral Chambers is like this.
>>720758379Robot Spider, but yes. Makes you wonder who the first Architect was that build the Cog Automota and gave them enough of a mind to continue to make more.
>>720757259A dishonest boss fight.
>>720758461>something is 30 rosaries Rike?
>>720757138Always was. I beat the game for the 1st time with it.Your hits continue to generate silk while in rage mode, so you can keep it going with sheer aggression. Not to mention the +25% damage and +20%attack speed rage mode gives you.
Just like how Silksong is the Dark Souls 2 of Hollow Knight, Lost Lace is the Promised Consort Radahn of Silksong.
>>720758487Too bad Ongbal cannot make more of those videos as silksong lacks good bosses
>>720756302>>720756223>>720756392I still can't fucking do it, takes an absolute eternity even with tool spam. Beginning to think my tools need dmg upgrades.
>>720758158don't care it's fun
>>720758534>something is 5 shards
>>720758379I believe all of the robots you encounter have little moths in them when you break them open, so they're more like mech suits than robots. I think their sentience is the sentience of those moths. Kinda fucked up considering those same species are kept in glass as lanterns throughout all of pharloom
>>720758461FTFY
>>720758515>spider>has ant antennas?
>>720758498Yeah, but the tunnels are always small narrow areas, it's not like there's much to see far away.
>>720758582oh no do I have to fight this faggot a second time?

Man I wish you could save Trobbio. Hornet often tells the others she encounters to hold on to hope because she's working towards a solution to the niggerthreads problem. You should have had the option to say something like>hey man, I know things are rough right now and it looks grim, but I'm working on a way to fix all of this shit, so don't do anything stupid and deprive the world of your talent. You're a lot of fun and a very bright spot of delight in what is otherwise a dark and ruined world. Just give me a chance to fix things, my friend. We can rebuild this world or find a new land to live in, but where ever the bugs of Pharloom go, they'll need your stage to bring them joy. Stay safe, Trobbio

Has any major skips been found for speedrunning?
>>720759074That does suck. You missed a nice Zero Mission inspired segment.
Finally finishing the game I'm wondering why people call this game too punishing and meanspirited.It's a bit trolly but I don't think there's ever been a moment in this game that made me mad or frustrated outside of the Ass Chef glitch.Even Bilewater was more funny than frustrating. It's just such an over the top fuck you area that I'll look fondly back to when all is said and done and I think it's great to have that one horrendous area (two if you count Hunter's March but that's more like the Catacoms) everyone collectively bonds over.
>>720759290i'm trans btw...not sure if that matters...
>still in act 2>start thinking of a 2nd playthrough already >remember savage beastfly X2>remember Bilewater>remember Mount Fay platformingYeah no, I'm going for 100% and I am out

Why doesn't the map update? On the interactive map it shows this secret room I'm in, but in my game it doesn't show.Also does this room have a purpose?
>>720752727Game sucks. I can't wait to 100% it, just to shit on it with total impunity.
>>720759290you have to wear the FAST PANTS
>>720759291Like anon is some thread said shame it wasn't connected to Blasted Steps. Big missed opportunity. Silksong really would benefit from more interconnections like HK.
>>720758083Because there are no resting points? Why don't remove all the benches of the game and make steel mode by default?There is a point when a game becomes too punishing. It's not fun.
>>720759424Did they fucking remove one of the bugs at 0:23??
>>720759091One health per hit. Enemies dying too soon or dodging away is a major issue when exploring with it.
extremely disappointed in act 3 and the endinggame doesn't feel finished despite them wasting 6 years adding more stuff to itstory is garbage, music forgettable, there are maybe 3 or 4 bosses with fun movesets and sadly those were too easyHollow Knight is the better game
>>720759346The same people who are complaining about the difficulty, will complain when the game gets nerfed, they're just following the herd.Also what chef glitch?
>>720759123The Last filter
>>720759583>Also what chef glitch?
>>720759475The area above MuckBuggies' playplace doesn't show up on my map even though I've been there twiceI think there are a couple of secret spots that are just a bit bugged
>>720759475Nothing to do for now, just keep playing.
>>720759572The only point of contention here is that the story is neither good nor bad. There's no way a reasonable person thinks it's "garbage".
>>720757284>locked behind a long late game gathering quest>meanwhile you get longnail from the second shopkeeper in HK and an even better longnail from a boss you can do after the 2nd

>>720759290There is some taunts into pogos. Also the mist sort of has a pattern - The first two rooms you have to needlolin the exit. The third you can take either left or right exit. Break room. Next room is needlolin, last room is right exit
>>720759049Cogflies ignores him since they don't attack the fire wielders, it's piss easy with Reaper on the other hand
are players underutilizing tools like they did with spells in HK? you steamrolled bosses with shaman stone and fireball spam.
>>720759729Damn you're stupid as fuck manIdk if you're baiting, but if you're not, holy shit. THESE are the people that say silksong is bad. These are the people you share a board with. Grim.
>>720759740The "reward" placement in this game is retarded bullshit>shard reward is in act 3>when you don't need shards anymore
>>720759123
>>720759659Yeah, this happened to Beastfly too, I guess there's a small chance of it happening with any boss that dives off screen.
17 hours in and I'm about at the end of act 1 I think, how long do you think the game's gonna take me? 40 hours?

>>720755812this fight is such a meme, it itself isn't even that bad, especially since you can farm free hits AND silk by just getting eaten. By far the most difficult part is getting to the fight relatively unscathed. Also getting the Wreath of Purity almost trivializes the biggest threat of the fight, that you can't heal half the time if you touch the water.Probably died to this guy 10-15 times before getting the Wreath, after that on my second try i beat it with full health remaining.
>>720759689in hollow knight 1 i instantly read wiki and watched youtube to understand the story betterin silksong i got the gist of it but i just don't care, it's not interesting at allso yes i think it's garbage
>>720759910If you're trying to play without guides, definitely more than 40 hours. Considering you're on 4chan, you'll be able to get it down just around that
>>720756597YOU CANT BOUNCE OFF THOSE SPIKES YOU RETARD
>>720760084just throw pimpillos when groat succs
>>720759927Lucky shota>>720759805Garunteed. By the time you reach groal, team cherry is BEGGING you to use the tools. They specifically designed him to he weak to tool attacks via the bombs you can chuck in his dumbfuck mouth. If that's not hint enough that you should equip bombs and cogflies and have them rape him to death, idk what to tell you. He goes down in less than a minute with that strat
>>720759927Shakra is way too small here
>>720759997The previous room is a hallway with literally nothing in it, leading to the room with the bellway. You're misremembering things.
How are you supposed to afford these? does the game really expect me to grind?
>>720759805Tools unironically were mistake. Clunky to use because down/up+RB. Limited yet still need shards. Shards is worthless mechanic copied from Bloodrborne. It's just awful. I would prefer spells
Silk parry is kino but either they reduce the silk consumption or they increase the damage
>>720760114I'm looking up the occasional "where to find X upgrade" guide and such but as progression goes I'm mostly going in blind
Why did they remove the ability to glide without going into a double jump?It's really annoying
>>720760109That's your opinion retardI loved the story
>>720758582There were a few fights I decided to beat without tools and this was one of them
>>720758156I think the connection is it keeps Bellhart, Songclave, and Fleatopia safe for the bullshit that goes down in Act 3
>>720760184>does the game really expect me to grind?Yes. You grind in act 2 big mobs or small pilgrims close to bench on lower floor
>>720760260ah a pay attention-er
Does the world remain fucked up by void after finishing Act 3? The difficulty is fun but most areas lose their charm
Is there a way to cure the silk-sapping worm aids if you fall into shit water in sinner's road
>>720760347>Does the world remain fucked up by void after finishing Act 3?NoBut the game also ends
>>720760348Yes, you if you bind once they go awayOr sit at a bench
>Yahtzee and the whole Second wind doesn't like Silksonglmao can't wait for the next fully ramblomatic
>>720759927>girl VA>sounds like a girl>talks like a girl>completely androgynous design>"but he's a boy because of quest text"It's not surprising people don't know
HOW DO I TURN OFF THE DOUBLE FUCKING JUMP I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT, SANDS OF KARAK WOULD BE PISS EASY IF THE FUCKING JUMP DID NOT FUCK UP EVERY MOVE THAT I TRY TO DO.
>>720760058I ended up loving phase 1 and hating phase 2 so I just spammed my tools
>>720760347wish we could turn back time, to the good ol days
>got all the fleas>get told to come back laterH-How long?
took 12 attempts and spamming the fuck out of conchcutter in phase 3cool boss but i don't see why people call her the best in the game, too many annoying mechanics like her blocking/parrying all the time and wavedashing away from you at mach 10
>>720760348There's an item but way later than sinner's road
>>720760389So if I'm below the necessary silk amount to bind I'm fucked thenNice
>>720760394Holy shit, it's 2007. Time to break open Runescape.
>>720759475Its supposed to be another hint for the green area existing
>>720760409enjoy your downgrade
>oh a baby>*takes*psychopath behaviour
>>720759805>are players underutilizing tools like they did with spells in HK?Kind of.>Shitters just spam tools without learning when's best to use them and just waste them>Shitters who think they're not shitters refuse to use tools at all and make the game both more difficult and less interesting to play for themselves>Actual good players use tools to expand their moveset appropriately for different situations
>>720760348Either use your heal, sit at a bench or swim in clean water
>>720759928But it would be those casuals/bad players who are most likely to have that happen. I didn't because I was at 1 health and needed Silk to heal. I played carefully against him and killed the fly in two different areas. By the time I realized, I actually had the key of the apostate and had destroyed my chances of getting kidnapped.
>>720760409You can't. They patched it without even changing tooltip7 YEARS
>>720760348Sit at a bench or bind once. The maggots will eat that heal, and it swiftly becomes very annoying to deal with
how?
>>720760307I do wonder if doing the quests in Bone Bottom are necessary though
>>720756968You did play music there right?
>>720760409Change for Reaper, focus on harpooning.
Quick question How do I access verdania? I know where it is, I am supposed to go there for a heart or whatever, yet the entrance is blocked, what the hell do I do? Also does that piece of shit Seth always break your records? And do you get any rewards for reclaiming your records?
>>720760516I don't have the resources to use tools moderately and tastefully
>>720760556what do you mean how?
>>720752727does the treadmill do anything or no
>>720760556Buy it
How do I access the Cogwork Core? It's closed up. I'm being told to get a melody from it that I can't get to, what? Also is putrified ducts a dead end? I went through and got a Broodfeast quest but that's about it.
>>720760469It was fun with wanderer because you could facetank her and just rape her to death with dps
>>720760587>q1Use the song you were told to use>q2No and yes but it's pure bragging rights
>Hornet could walk on water in the futurekino...
>>720760598You must farm rosaries. There is no other way.
>>720760587Have you done the Green Prince quest line? Don't know if you need to meet him at every location or just let him out of gay baby jail but it'll be that
>>720760556You get more currency from killing enemies but if you take damage yourself you lose some of what you have.
I just remembered that giant running nigger in the Underworks, I played my guitarlin back then and he stopped for a bit. Do I go back with that one tool and play shit again or he can fuck off?
>>720759805If they wanted me to use tools extensively, they shouldn't have attached a shard resource that requires you to farm shit when the number of tools you have is already capped. Now here's a fucking idea, have different benches give different caps for each tool, now that would actually be interesting and force players to make calculated tradeoffs involving routing instead of mindless grinding.>muh bell beast trivializesHave the tools reset to a default number any time you use the bellways, I dunno, hornet's loose bugpussy has a loose hold on all the tools and they fall out when they bump into bells there's your lore reason TC
>>720760138never got those
>>720760621gives you a minimum wage bead
>>720760556Money can be exchanged for goods and services
why did this take 8 fucking years
>this IP will never have a nazi-tier evil hornet tribe because hornet is already a charactershame
How great would it be if Grime 2 came out the day I finish Silksong
I just wish that I could restore Bellhart after act 3. It's so nice when it's fully upgraded and populated.
>>720760657That's how I did it, you can parry every hit of most of her attacks too.
>>720759537I also remember a bug there wtf
>>720760598There's nothing to buy in act 3, so just buy shards.
>>720760382Thanks. I might try to fill out the Hunter's Journal when the enemies aren't buffed to all hell
>>720760443not exactly the same but you can reload saves in the save select menu
>>720760807tiny team with too many big ideas and no publisher to tell them to hurry the fuck up to meet deadlines
Any ideas?
>>720760807It's fucking huge
>>720760807yeah i dont get it
Is there really no reward for killing the plasmium zombie? Did anyone try using the blood extractor on him?
>>720760962Starting from the platform to the right. Dash jump -> clawline -> double jump.
>>720760962there's a bump on your right, use it
>>720759572I overall agree that Hollow Knight is a better, more rounded game but Silk Song is about what i've expected so i'm not disappointed by it. Its pretty much what i expected 7 years of development with no communication to look like
>>720760962platform to your rightRun > Jump > Throw > Jump
>>720760804how do I get the money? my pockets are empty
>>720761000I didn't even know you could beat him without it.
>>720760751Speed puzzle. Similar to weaver nest where you get anklets. There is a second secret. You need to drink flea piss and run even more faster
>>720760962You can just reach it if you sprint jump off the right edge, hookshot then double jump and wall jump. It's so tight I suspect you're actually meant to have super jump though
>>720760962Clawline and double jump are enough.
>>720755238Crest of the Beast
>>720761000He gives blood for the quest and you can use it on him multiple times.
Is gambling in the blasted steps worth doing? I did it and it just seems like a +4 -4 unseen dice roll.Is Eva expanded upon? I saw a mention of AI in this thread and that makes sense.
>>720759121Apparently I did, didn't notify me, only saw it on my steam profile just now.Also, wtf do I do in this room, I hear murmuring but nothing I do seems to have an effect on whatever the fuck is hidden here.
>>720760962I did manage that beforeIt's a very tight jump from edge of the little ledge, barely possible but it does work
>>720761049I had the anklets and drank flea piss but it did nothing
>>720752727is there a mod for the pach that removes the boss nerfs yet? im fine with the rest of fixes, but im annoyed people made TC nerf some of the tamest bosses in the game
>>720761096I won +4 like five times in a row
>>720760707Could easily be a thing she does while running, but I can't think of any use for it, so maybe just in a new dlc area.
>>720761096you're too smart, the game wants you to spam the gamba
Anyone know if theres a vendor that sells bigger shard packs? Those 80 shell packs are just way too small to stock up on
>>720759659happened to me like 4 consecutive times in a row
Most fights and challenges in this game took me a good amount of tries, but I wouldnt really say any boss in particular stands outThe hardest thing to do in this game is probably the Sprintmaster races (until you figure out you can use your harpoon instead of pogoing)
>>720761150Bellhart merchant sells 120s
>>720761123Sure but it's just gambling then right? Not a "beat me five times in a row and I'll give you a secret item" thing.
>>720761096apparently if you win enough he gives you the dicealso apparently it has mechanics, like you can control how you throw to get better resultsIf you come back later he'll be dead and you can grab the dice off the corpse
>>720761098Do the needful
>>720760807Game is near endless and the team is small.
>>720761046I think his health regenerates constantly. I just spammed beastmode at first and switched to spamming tools once he started sliding. He died really quickly on the successful attempt, and during previous attempts he tanked like 5 times more damage and didn't die, so it must be a dps check.
>>720761250Apparently my previous attempts at playing the needolin were just too brief.
>>720761191>until you figure out you can use your harpoonI'm starting to understand why people are having so much trouble, the harpoon is the best mobility AND combat tool in your entire arsenal and most people seem to forget it even exists
>>720761191please stop all this trolling about whining about the minigames it's so fucking stupid
>>720761210Just press X until you finish the quest. There is no rules or anything. Did it in like 1 minute.
>>720760506You would leave a crying baby abandoned in bilewater of all places ?
alchemist
>>720761191what harpoon?
>>720761098I feel bad for the large number of people that don't know about playing the needle to get interactions
>>720761278He dies in like 10 seconds with the succ needle lolI assumed he was immortal otherwise
>>720761283I eventually just dropped air dash unless double dash is required, harpoon is just too good
>>720757912Its memory locketsNot silk hearts, no mask shards, not crests, but how many slots you unlock for themI know this from my own testing and from when she offered me upgrades
>>720761304i don't know what half of this shit even is
>>720760347losing out on coral halls and bellhart music is such a bummer
>>720761193I'm here in Act 3 and its still only 80s. Is there another quest for it?
wow the karmelita fight fucking sucks
>30 hours in>only 3 crests>still using defaultvanilla bros...
>>720761323NTA but I didn't know you can play it here. Though I used it to stun some bosses
>>720761383care to explain that take?
>>720761283It's so fucking good too because you can clawline in and out of combat
could current hornet beat the knight in a 1v1
>>720761304Why the wisps?that shit just seems to drain my silk while doing fuck all in damage
>>720761096You can hold the jump key to keep juggling the dice. After 5-ish seconds the dice glows briefly and if you release it at that moment it's a guaranteed win. You'll know you got it because Hornet will grunt when throwing them.Do this a couple of times without failing and you'll get the item.
>>720760469shes kinda similar to NKG in the sense that you really have to figure out how to attack her during her attacks and also learn to read her patterns quickly instead of relying on reactions and positioning alone. The difference is just instead of teleporting away after an attack she blocks
>died in a hidden portion of the map>can't remember where muh souls
>>720761323I did actually try to play the needle there before but only briefly, so it didn't bring the dude forth. When I tried it just now I kept playing for longer so he came out.
>>720761058>>720761101The trick is to sprint in the opposite direction onto the raised surface first, turn around, THEN jump.
>>720761323>I feel bad for the large number of people that don't know about playing the needle to get interactionsThat's because in this game in 90% of the chances when you'd think playing the Needolin does something, it doesn't. The dream nail had much better "oh shit I could probably dream nail this, what if.. OH SOMETHING HAPPENS" implementation than the Needolin. I must have played the Needolin at least 50 times this game hoping something would happen and nothnig does.
>>720761453>arena beforehand>samey/switching telegraphs>blocks your attacks cos she feels like it>a billion hpits not as bad as some of the others but i had higher expectations having seen people hyping her up as the good one out of the endgame bossesthe design/atmosphere are cool"fucking sucks" was probably a bit harsh but what is this site for if not reactionary contrarian hyperbole
>>720761360Very close to immortal, i think beast crest is the only viable option as it let's you avoid and tank damage while having a high dps.
>>720761191>>720761283>>720761363what fucking harpoon
>>720760723I freed him only after the Cockwork dancers and i only saw him lamenting at the beginning of Act 3 at their location before he went to verdania right away
>>720761487>he doesn't knowthere is nothing you can spend silk on because you have regenerating health but can't bind
How big is the difference in the nudging with and without the weighted belt?
>>720761405The needle can be used to get>Songs from NPCs>Memories from ghosts>Turn on some signs>Some not ghost memoriesYou can notice it sometimes when there's like certain kinds of light webs coming down into the room, but generally you should just play it at any dead end point or place you think is relevant
>>720761379I assume, I've done every available side quest at bellhart and she sells 120 beads
>>720761468like the knight at the start of the game, the knight after beating Radiance in the "true end", or the knight after Godhome?
>>720761096I suspect Eva is something like a prototype silk creature
So wait, this boss is literally sticking to walls while waiting for him to come across and get 1 hit, repeat?(yes I know you can reflect the spiky balls but the planets have to align for them to hit something)
>>720761726gigabuffed final form knigh vs gigabuffed hornet final form
>>720761690it would be based if you could use the Needolin to activate the fast travel stations without payingit makes too much sense and it does nothing
when the fuck do I get the map guys quest
>>720761596she's great up until phase 3 where it stops being a dance and she just goes schizo spamming moves while her punish window becomes ridiculously small
>>720761468no
>>720761812>>720761812>>720761812
>>720761801No you foolishly foolish foolYou use your thrown needle to zip across to pogo on her, then zip back when she explodes
>>720761703shards, not beads
>>720761801use wander or reaper for the vertical pogoharpoon to boss, pogo, harpoon away, wait for attack, repeatit's an extremely boring and shit fight
>>720761801You pogo the shit out of that flower and the fight is over in like 30 seconds
>>720761505Another difference is that NKG doesn't really allow you to heal outside of when he summons the pillars. Meanwhile you can jump up into the corner at basically any time during the Karmelita fight to heal.
>>720761801This boss is supposed to teach you that Clawline can be used offensively and it's not jut for platforming.
>just got the neutral ending>explored every area I could>poked and humped just about every wall>reading thread>entire areas I have never seen>at least 4 major bosses in this thread I haven't seenThis doesn't excite me it makes me very frustrated.
>>720756719one is for the quest in wormways in act 3, go back where you usually go refill plasmiumthe other three are for doing all deliveries at least once
>>720761529eat a silk baby
>>720761993don't worry anonyou're not missing out on anything good really
>>720761928Oh, I'm sillyNo, no merchant I've seen sells bigger packst. 100%
>>720761801It's about throwing conchcutters, most bosses are.
>>720761993You beat maybe 70% of the game
>>720761981Jokes on them, I learnt nothing, just pogod and face tanked the explosions
>>720761914I never used the zipline unless I absolutely had to in platformingjust forhot I had it most of the time
>>720761993Ignore the tranny, you're probably missing some quests, did you assemble the heart and find all the fleas?
>>720761993my exact experience rn. the stuff I was missing to reach act 3 was the most retarded hidden path in a video game, dark souls level of vague questlines and a single flea.
>>720762126You don't even have to face tank them, you can just double jump and float between pogos
>>720761981I thought the First Sinner was the boss for that.
>>720761993>MORE content in my $20 game?>this irks me
>>720762172>dark souls level of vague questlinesI found act 3 by accident because I was just doing all the side quests before proceeding.There's nothing vague about it
>>720761468The Knight as she fought at Kingdom's Edge? Probably. She had skill enough to kill many vessels before the Knight showed up and rocked her. Just a few more power ups and I doubt the Knight could have done much without Shade Cloak.The Knight at the end of the game? HAHAHAHA No. Got to remember that the Knight is the child of Gods combined with Void. Once the Knight comes to realize their past and accept it, he has become a truly thinking and feeling being. Hornet is only a demi-god and even if we consider all of the power ups she gets in this game, even merging with an incomplete artificial god, she still doesn't come close. Grand Mother Silk, she got lucky with because she was still not at full power since she just woke up. Lost Lace probably had her on the ropes constantly, since this is a fragment of a God dipped in Void and Void without thought just tries to kill anything with Soul that it comes across on instinct. The Knight wouldn't have had any trouble with Lost Lace, even before we consider how he could have taken control of the Void on her.
>>720762262what do you need it for lost sinner?just chase her around and beat the shit out of her any time she tries to summon swords
>>720759527Did you miss the shortcut?
>>720762334Clawline was practically made for that fight with how fast she moves.
>>720762415Looking around?In MY videogame about exploration?
>>720758083the boss is funthe gauntlets before the shortcut, not so muchand that's mostly due to the way the memory mechanics work
>>720752932Honestly, what kind of no-life autist notices something like this?
Where is everybody farming rosaries in act 3? There's only like 2 Grand Reeds left by Songclave
>>720758159No, no it isn't. I had All 3 crest slots unlocked for Hunter and nothing else and I only got the first Hunter upgrade. It took having Beast and Reaper, while also unlocking another slot in Reaper before she gave me the Vesticrest. There are other requirements that the game checks before unlocking more stuff. We also know that you can get the final thing from Eva in act 2, before Shaman crest can be gotten.
>>720759374Mount fay was fun and not that hard. I remember having a harder time with sand area. Or with any area the has hard enemies rather than hard platforming.
