God I can't wait for boss rush and for trannie jannie to kill himself.I hope it's Void-Styled Godmaster. Like ghost just took over Godseeker's job, this time Void flavored
>>720977658I want to see the cut areas like the coral zone make a return.
I think it would make sense if it were memory-basedI think alot of the dlc is gonna expand on memoryAlso, what the fuck is the city of steel? I've only got the last boss to face and never encountered anything relating to that
>>720977779I want a much bigger Voltnest themed area
>>720977795Definitely feels like Act 3 will have a ton more stuff tacked on to it.
>>720977779Team Cherry lied. Coral died.
>>720977795>I think it would make sense if it were memory-basedTrue.
How do I get this Railgun anons are talking about?
why don't ya just go to silksong general insted of spamming here? don't feel special enough unless you spam threads?
I don't care about bosses bros. I care about exploration.
>>720977912Nobody with a sound mind uses /vg/ nigger and you know it. Unless you're a secret gacha shill, in which case unironically neck yourself.
>>720977852They definitely made this initial map with fog canyon in mind
>>720977912>why don't you go discuss video games somewhere else
I'm at 56sec on flea dodge
>>720978013I reached 95I'm going to shoot myself and it's team cherry's fault
>>720977912I agree, but I'm just using both atm.
>>720977852Oh wait is that all graymoor on the right?So sinners road and maggotwater shit didnt exist
>>720977912/vg/ is not for single player games lime this. A true general cannot last. We have at least 1 more month of pseudp generals in us left. The mods need to fuck off.
My theory for why Clover Dancers is easier than Cogwork Dancers is that Clover Dancers was actually created first as the main boss for Verdania back when the entire area was still part of the map proper. Because they're originally a fight from an area you were supposed to access right after Greymoor, the complexity is significantly lesser than the fight in the citadel. When they reincorporated the area into act 3 they probably didn't change much of the fight aside from turning Green Prince's lover into a ghost to reflect the new lore.
FINALLY I'M FREE
>>720978213Clover Dancers are NOT easier than Cogwork. Wtf are you fags smoking? They have that twister move.
>>720978213It's cause the gay prince sucks dickThe citadel is ass and ruined alot of places but they improved on the prince's design. Shame about how they ruined his land, but they deserved it for being led by a faggot
TROBBIOOOOOOOOOOhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DjEVcPnnHoI'm going to bed, i've been shitposting all day
>>720978298Does he know?
>>720977852ROBBED
>>720978327Anon you just move around it
>>720978213>why Clover Dancers is easier than Cogwork Dancersbecause you already know whats coming, It's the same fight but with an additional tornado
>>720978419Why r u brown?
>>720978327That attack is easy to dodge though.>Cogwork Dancers>No shared HP pool, and their combination attack basically mixes up who you're targeting so you can't know who you're focusing down>3 phases of increasing difficulty>Clover Dancers>Distinction between the two is not only painfully obvious, but you can literally only damage one, making him go down extremely quickly>Can't even remember if it had a second phase>Runback takes longer than beating the boss
>>720978394I don't think he knows.
>>720978394there's more...? I already beat the 3 flea games
>>720978213I don't see how Cogworks Dancer is harder than their dream version. Clover dancers are a bit faster, their tornado move is harder to dodge, and you can only hit the green one.I think the first version probably share an healthbar as well, otherwise if you were unlucky the fight would take almost twice as long
>>720977852CORALBROS..........
>>720978415Yeah sure it's not that hard, but it's more than what Cogwork ever asks you to do.
>>720977912>I hate videogames!we know, anon.we know
>>720978464whiter than the PK
>>720978475HE DOESN'T KNOWAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAH
>>720978542>allegory for abortionBaaed team cherry?
Dios mio.. la cretura americanos.. forma de maggot
Why is there so much disinformation about this game?>The Last Judge is a terrible boss and yhe runback is even worse!The Last Judge is a fun as fuck boss, very satysfying to figure out (watch the bell hand) and the runback is 20 seconds of the smoothest platforming in video game history with no need to fight a single enemy>diagonal pogo suckDiagonal pogo is much more fun than regular one, absolutely amazing during combat and the only way to fuck it up during platforming is by having either zero spatial awerness or by not pressing just down (trying to move diagonally like a moron)>Bilewater sucks and the boss is impossibleOk, Bilewater does suck, but the boss is easy if you aren't afraid to get into the water (the level masterfully tricks you into being afraid of water, then makes it the easy solution for the boss fight). He will never hit you so you don't need healingSeriously, what is wrong with people? And I'm not even that good at the game, but I'm chugging forward.
>>720978394>>720978474>>720978542please no more fleas in my face
>>720978585Shut the fuck up
>>720978648You can never have enough fleas!
Post yfw AWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>720978626Based post. I genuinely liked Bilewater a lot. It's meant to feel like an oppressive shithole that's practically a boss in and of itself.
>>720978694Me: :3
>we still don't know what the fuck it is
Anyone coming up with anything silksong related for the /v/musical?I posted my groal heil hitler lyrics in there
>>720978735Yeah, I started to stockholm syndrome too at the fake bench when I realized they were intentionally trying to be as mean as possible with that area. It makes me wonder what inspired them to do such a thing
The fact Skarrsinger's bone spikes do 2 damage is pure bullshit.
>>720978735-I liked pogoing the bloat roaches.-Theres that one area with the respawning harmless floater guys that give you infinite silk-throwing a bomb into Groal's mouth was great
>>720978817KekOne time I got hit 3 times in a row, literally rapid succession with no chance to input anything, and remained on the platform
>>720978850pogo it
>>720978808There was a certain point where I thought for sure that GMS was a fake and that the Trilobite would pop in somewhere as the real god of the weavers
>>720978817I beat Flea Dodge without knowing you could recover. I just accepted my death whenever I got hit.
>>720977852We were unironically fucking robbed, three areas of the game are different flavors of poison swamp and most beautiful area they ever conceived gets scrapped. I actually like the Blasted Steps area but I'd trade it and sands of karak in a heartbeat for thisDoesn't help that they clearly shoved all the enemies they designed for it into one gauntlet, when they'd all have been fun to fight spread out in the open world
>>720978735It's a brutal area and is the final nail in the coffin for how fucked the citadel made everything. I still think it was too long and that it and putrid ducts should have been combined and halved, but it's a solid portion of the game, both thematically and mechanically. Apparently alot of people walk into it via sinners road. I fell down into it via the vaults
>>720978735use the boomerangtoss bombs into the boss's mouthboss is easy.
>>720978932It NEEDS to be fully realized in the dlc via memory
>>720978875I tried and she kep frontflip buzzsawing me in middair.
>>720978965>It's a brutal area and is the final nail in the coffin for how fucked the citadel made everything.Blasted Steps and Sands of Karak were the same way. The Citadel royally fucked up everything around it.>Apparently alot of people walk into it via sinners road. I fell down into it via the vaultsIt really is Deepnest all over again.
>>720979026Lol i kept falling for that shit, too
>>720979005I don't think you understood my post.
fetch quests have no business being in a metroidvania
>>720979042Don't ever fucking reply to me again.
>>720979082Anon is just autistic and feels the need to spew information even though he actually knows it's not quite the right context.
>>720979115Most obvious falseflagger ever?
>>720979026yeah she's not nice at all, but keep trying I believe in you
>>720979042>coral region used to be a flourishing oceanic type paradise>citadel sucked the life out of it and had the audacity to name it's main hall the "choral chambers">sucked so much live even the steps beneath were turned into a sandy wasteland, it was likely a beach-type biome before>skarrkingdom was toppled and they returned to savagery>bogger's were fucked over so bad by shit and piss water being poured into their ponds that they developed a pure, undistilled hatred of the citadel>verdania is completely lost and forgottenAbsolutely brutal existence for all of Pharloom
>>720979115What the fuck is this guy's problem?
So, was this little girl actually evil?
I wish all the act 3 bosses were marked somewhere. It's kinda shit just running around not knowing where they are other than the main three.Just beat Seth and still have no idea where all the other shit is without looking it up.
>>720979252Once you get to act 3 you'll never stop wanting to beat the citadel and grand mother silk to death with your bare hands
>>720979252>"But don't worry about all that nasty stuff happening outside the Citadel! We have all those places in the Memorium so it's ok!"Brutal indeed.
>>720979308They're all somewhat clustered together/in the same region>seth and nyleth>crawfather and gay dancers>karmelita and nick gurr the NIGGER>coral tower and the watcher at the edgeAm I missing any?
>want to do new playthrough>know I will just assblast everything with the wanderer and various buffsIs there any way to avoid this or should I just embrace it?
>>720977852I compared all the maps and I can't believe it but the late 2025 version is noticeably worse than some other versions. Way too bloated and uneven.
>>720979334It's hard to tell what was the weavers doing and what was Silk's
>>720979390Embrace itIt's fun to be challenged and play difficult gamesIt's also fun to melt fags with the meta and lean into powerfantasy mode. In HK those two were>pure melee build with nail artsVs.>heavy spell build with spell charmsIn SS It's>any other crestVs.>architect and wanderer
>>720979303YeahKill that bitch with flintslate
why is the hunter crest getting upgraded again but not others like the wanderer? did I fucked up somehow?
Bosses drop 50-300 rosaries on death.Double the number of shards found or at least make mining them 5x as fast.Now the game is perfect.
>>720979308Zango isn't anywhere near the regions, but he's basically a lore encounter and not a boss. There's Pale Stag in Lost Verdania but that's the same.
>>720979389The Refight with Moss Mother, but void
>>720979389Pinstress, the other ant, Bug Quixote, and TROBBIO have wishes for them, and it's hard not to run into Bell Eater. The Watcher is the one who's really out of the way.
>>720979530>did I fucked up somehow?No. Hunter crest is purposely weaker than the others due to not having a gimmick of its own. It being upgraded is supposed to let it catch up with the others.
>>720979530>hunters crest is the only one that didn't start off with a bonus thing>It's Hornet's base crest, meaning it's the moveset that's closest to her prime nature, thus "canonical" i guessYou didn't fuck up
>>720979530Nah that's normal. It's because the other crests all have passives while the Hunter crest has nothing at the start
>>720979605that's sad, I don't even use it that much
>>720979597Yeah I forgot alot lolI guess I was only thinking of the ones that were paired as "boss and mini boss"
>>720977852We get three fuck ass maggotwater areas and lose the best area.
>>720979559Yeah call me crazy but if a boss is basically a supercharged version of a regular enemy (Last Judge, the Ensilkened or whatever), and that regular enemy drops rosaries, then the boss should drop a proportionate amount of rosaries too. Preferably in strings but I'm not picky.I'm fine with Gauntlets not giving you rosaries everytime you go through them but maybe once when you beat them
>>720979639I was baited into using it because of the bonus damage. The diagonal pogo is actually really fun when you get used to it though.
>>720978626>the level masterfully tricks you into being afraid of water, then makes it the easy solution for the boss fight)I think such a simple trick neutering the boss as much as it does is actually lame. It's not a big deal because it is just one boss, but it's really not that interesting.
>>720979724>Yeah call me crazy but if a boss is basically a supercharged version of a regular enemy (Last Judge, the Ensilkened or whatever), and that regular enemy drops rosaries, then the boss should drop a proportionate amount of rosaries too.>Preferably in strings but I'm not picky.That's actually not a bad idea, and I'd be totally fine with that.
All this coral area talks made me want the DLC to be entire Pharloom memory, so you get to explore the entire game in the past.
There’s a limited amount of craftmetal in comparison to the items that require it.So, what are the best items on which I should use craftmetal to build? What should I avoid?
>>720979994there is enough craftmetal to get everything
Is the 4chin slow or is it tranny janny banning those threads
Im having some trouble with the gourmands quest. I cannot find the crustnut or pickled muckmaggot. The butler mentioned the sandy area past the gate so im assuming its in the blasted steps but i feel like ive looked everywhere. Theres a part at the top near the grand gate i havent opened because i need to do it from the other side. Should i focus on that? The pickled maggots is lrobably in bilewater with those hillbugs that wanted the roach meat. Just havent made my way over there yet.
>>720980031it is
>>720980078nut sword master tentmaggot sinner road
>>720980078It's in a large area you can access from Blasted Steps, you just haven't found it yet. You need Clawline and preferably double jump.
>>720980078Your instinct is mostly correct - you will need Double Jump for the other two.The maggot is in Sinner's Road. Just going to tell you this because fuck wandering around Bilewater for something that's not there.
>>720978626I don't know if they changed it but the runback to Last Judge had a piece of shit Driznit in the way of one of the early jumps IIRC.
>>720980107>>720980109>>720980113Thank you all. I meant sinners road for the bugs but its close enough. I went to the pintress in blasted steps and she told me to kick rocks. Unless there is a different swordmaster in that area?
>>720978626>very satysfying to figure outYou're only allowed to learn her attacks through trial and error every few minutes due to the runback. That's the exact opposite of satisfying.>runback is 20 secondsNot back in 1.0.>the level masterfully tricks you into being afraid of water, then makes it the easy solution for the boss fightI fail to see how you can call this anything but bad game design. Teaching the players to do A then requiring them to do B isn't "masterful", it's dishonest.>He will never hit youNigger, he constantly trembles all over the fucking place and your attack range is pitifully short.The entire fight is hoping he doesn't dive into you while you attack once every 5 seconds.And just like with Last Judge, you're only allowed to see what he does once every few minutes.
i love this game but i dont' like the bosses and npcs that much. i kinda expected moresherma is top tier but that's about it
>>720978626It's sad. I genuinely loved this game, but then most of the posts here are just crying about the difficulty
Seems like for a perfect playthrough you need to save this guy before reaching act 2, otherwise he straight up dies.>>720979972It really feels like this was the plan, but they removed it from the game and turned it into those dream sequences we have now.
Imagine if Lace had a Shantae dancing minigame.
>>720980267The characters are definitely the weakest part of the game.The setting doesn't give them enough attention for them to actually matter to the plot.
>>720980291I only went there in act 2 an he is still alive.
>>720980361Oh, that's interesting. His death might be linked to beating the final boss in that case.
>>720980291He's always dead in steel soul
>>720980446B-but why? I liked him...
What is and isn't required for a 100% completion?
>>720979252Really puts into perspective how much of a decent monarch the Pale King was.>the agreement with the Weavers>an alliance with the mantis lords, >friendly enough with the Hive for Vespa to gift Hornet a weapon of hivesteel>iirc I'm pretty sure the Mosskin were cool with Hallownest if they stayed on the road.>the shrooms were allowed to exist>queen's garden was likely the white lady's domain, so was automatically integrated into the kingdomOnly the moths were an anomaly.
>>720980131Do a running jump on the platform it appears above and it will never hit you
>>720980470He provides those silkworm things that are useless in that mode
>>720980446Isn't he in a secret cave to the right? He trades those silk worms for rosaries just like in the first game.
ultra instinct?
I'm so drained after making it through the platforming in Sands of Karak that I keep dying to the angry Conchfly.

>get to act 3>game gets significantly easieri was stuck on bloated niggerfly and bilewater as a zone for HOURS and yet every super secret hidden boss in act 3 has died within 5-6 attempts, AND they have a bench near themdid they accidentally get the difficulty spike backwards? i get that games get easier as you learn them but it drops so fucking fast it's unreal. the start of the game feels like absolute bullshit but now it feels like an absolute joke
>>720977852I was actually thinking about this, and was wondering if this is why blasted steps is the only purely synth track in the game.
>>720981110I accidentally build architect and 1-3 tries most act 3 bosses (I just like drills)
>>720980252>You're only allowed to learn her attacks through trial and error every few minutes due to the runback.You can heal for 3 masks anywhere on the screen. At worst you can live through an entire phase cycle unless you're intentionally getting hit.>Not back in 1.0People were posting clips of them blasting through the runback before a patch was even announced. Really just sounds like you're dogshit at the game, especially when you call something intentionally designed as "bad game design." Stick with Pokemon or Yoshi.
>>720981262Oh fuck are you thinking that was one of the first areas Larkin made an OST of?
>>720980942her theme is really cool toohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56oo-CvG6Gk>>720981110I dunno I thought she was tough, took me like 2 hours to beat, still missing a few act 3 bosses thoBile boss took me a long time to beat too
I HECKIN LOVE FIGHTING FLYING ENEMIES THAT MOVE OUT OF ATTACK RANGE AFTER EVERY HIT OVER AND OVER AND OVER. THANK YOU TEAM CHERRY LET ME SUCK YOUR FAT LOG OUT OF YOUR ASSHOLE AND AFTERWARDS ILL TELL EVERYBODY ONLINE THAT CRITICIZES YOU THAT THEYRE JUST BAD AT THE GAME :)))))))))))
Do you need the double jump to get into Voltnest? I keep thinking I can make it with just the harpoon if I time it right.
What the fuck was her problem?
>>720981410Opposite, actually. If the coral area was changed out then blasted steps added later after most of the music had been made or something.Could've also been an early area, I don't know, just making guesses.
>>720981763>removed mask>2 gigantic pin in her spine stopping her from producing silk>clearly lost itGee anon I wonder what
>>720979487In principle you can run pure melee Architect too, I used it for most of the game since act 2 and I actively avoided using tools for most fights outside of annoying shit like GroalI'd actually be fine with them nerfing the bind in some way, I'm a little fed up with having to specify that I use Architect for cool drill attacks rather than the tool spam crutch
>>720978735Yeah it's one of my favourite areas in the game

>>720982514Absolutely. The number of secret hard to find bullshit in this game is insane

>>720977852The way Team Cherry makes games is really interesting to me especially world design.It's like they just adlib everything.Like what the fuck do you mean you made two of the most beautiful areas you've ever made but just fucking gutted them because it made more sense in the setting?What is this retardation? It's insane and I somehow love it.
>>720982639Most left-leaning people online think this way.I was watching RTGame stream the game and it was very uncomfortable seeing his woke-infested chat explode into absolute hatred against the child he picked up,
>>720983504What?
I think people are overreacting to the coral area being reduced.In a parallel universe people are probably bemoaning the absence of Cog Core or something
>>720983543What part of my sentence did you fail to understand?
>>720982879>though they're literally born into servitude and don't know any betterI think this is actually why. She also thinks it's good to kill baby judges, who likewise exist for no other reason than to grow into the citadel's soldiers.I think it makes some sense. There's no reasoning with or saving these bugs. They are, to their very core, nothing more than animated obstacles to her interests. They're little different from the cogwork bugs.
>>720983361They cant even let me enjoy the comfy platforming parts in peace because ofcourse they throw in flying enemies... againLike how the fuck am I supposed to do a difficult platforming part if theres a flying enemy trying to kill me in between it. Often I have to lure it all the way down to a safer spot to kill it. Its so dumb. And yeah SS has way more flying enemies than HK did
>>720983549Isnt coral in the place of blasted steps and verdania where worms are?Worm area is pointless i'd rather have verdania, same trash.Blasted steps are amazing so i prefer that.Cutting is gay in general

What are the requirements to get to act 3? I'm so fucking lost on how to progress
so basically i cheated for the fleaslooked up how to find the guy with the map AND i looked up how to get to one of the fleas on the map because i just have no idea and it turns out to be some hidden wallclimb. others i still have no clue how you're supposed to get to them (wornways, underbelly, the one when going toward putrid ducts...). oh well.i just don't understand why they would gatekeep act 3 behind finding these random hidden pathsnowWHERE IS ACT 3I STILL DON'T KNOWBEEN PLAYING 10 HOURS RUNNING AROUND THE MAP DOING EVERY QUEST JUST TO FIND IT
>>720983504Bro it's LITERALLY a parasite and meant to be annoying as fuck by crying whenever you open your menu, and it leads into a quest where you get permanently debuffed until you finish it. It's meant to be bad. It's not an actual baby. Clear your brainrot and detox from the internet before posting again.
>>720983582Incorporate the flying enemy into the platformingaka git gud

>>720984141>>720984215>do all quests>get flea caravan to move to lake>play a song instead of killing he silk mum final boss.
>>720984543It goes away? I tried the mist area and realized it was some kind of maze so I thought I needed to go back after I got a map or something.
>>720984141>>720984215I just played and explored the game. The only thing that I actually had to go after was the Great Taste of Pharloom quest because I didn't know the green bugs in Bellhart had the last item for the chef.
>>720984543There's only one enemy in the mist. Allegedly you get the journal entry for them when the mist goes away no matter how many you've killed. Personally, I killed more than enough to get the entry before that just trying to figure what to do and where to go.
bilewater is act 3, RIGHT?
>they put a gay praying mantis in the gameno... wokeness in my game... at least it's not particularly distasteful and the robots look cool
>>720984907Anon... I don't want to alarm you but there are they/thems in the game as well....
>>720984718Go back to the mist and ponder
>>720984898lol. lmao.
>>720984981I will thank you father
>>720985029???i'm 50 hours in and never found it
>>720984973where?
>>720984973Lots of insects have weird sex bullshit going on
>>720985128The robots
>>720983582After you have Clawline every flying enemy is easy to make into another platform.You don't even need silk for it, since hitting an enemy gives you one bar
seriously does this game just have areas that are completely hidden and you need to find a pixel somewhere that unlocks them?
>>720984973just the bell beast right?
>>720985128This beautiful specimen >>720978607
>>720985119you can find it as early as act 1
>>720985191There are multiple areas behind breakable walls. Usually they have a hint that makes it stand out at least a bit
>>720985191you attack every wall
if verdania was bigger and in the place of where all the worm water shit is and we got the corals instead of blasted sands then the game would feel more alive like the first trailer promised instead of being another fallen kingdom
This is the voice actress for Shakra, Nuu, Moss Druid, Gilly and Last JudgeSay something nice about her
this fight was fun as fuck
>>720985247And Phantom.
>>720985345it's so fucking gay, in HK breakable walls were bonus areas, not ENTIRE PARTS OF THE MAPnow i need to go through the entire map again
>>720984215how do you guys miss so many fleas, do you even explore?like by the time I found the guy selling the maps I only had 2 fleas left to findone I legit missed, the other I was keeping for later because I couldn't reach it easily
>>720985357She must wear bug costume and I would fuck her
Fucking 8.1% finished lost lace and u'r telling me people think this game is some of the hardest anti casual mess? Thats an insane amount
>>720985357I like her voice
>>720985451I didn't get the double jump until like 3/4ths of the way into act 2 because I forgot to go left at one point. I just thought the game was really hard.
>>720984543you're missing a bench (i looked it up because i hate that shithole) but it doesn't get easiermist area is good but there's a trick to it
>>720977852I need a fucking interview with these cunts about the logic behind the Coral Area getting cut. No. I'm not just accepting MUH CITADEL EXPANDED shit. I need a step by step of their thought process cutting one of the most striking areas in the series.
>>720985357nippies :)
>>720982553HH Heil Hornet
What's the lowest completion percent you can get when defeating final boss?
>>720984237Totally, anon. You're not at all sick in the head. It's everyone else who is insane.
>>720985494They all got filtered by Last Judge + the runback.
>>720985437Lace explicitly calls Phantom her sister
>>720985451>Only 2 leftSame, the only one I remember though was hidden in Mount Fay
Where lake?
>>720985616Hornet calls her a they.
>>720985675Do wishes
>>720985451i can see the fleas on the map and STILL can't find the way to get them. do you really just bump against every single ceiling to see if there's a hidden way up? do you really hit every single wall to see if it breaks?
>>720985191If you're not smacking and bumping into every wall and ceiling in the game you're doing it wrong
>>720985691You are aware that "they" is a perfectly legitimate way to refer to someone despite knowing their gender, right?When someone asks you where your mother went, replying with "they went to the mall" is grammatically correct.
>>720985616I dunno, maybe it was Phantom speaking
>>720985798No, that's weird.
>>720985868To you, maybe. To the rest of the world it's perfectly okay.
>>720984141You need to find Shakra in all the areas she appears in, and maybe buy the maps
>>720985798Richard Stallman said it is not grammatically correct and I feel that he is right. There are some sentences where it becomes unclear who "they" refers to when used in such a way.
>>720977852Where is this from?
>>720985186>everyThose niggers in putrefied ducts seem designed to not cooperate with the clawline. They're always at a bad angle.
>>720985939Well I don't care about the rest of the world.
>>720985798>grammatically correctPeople also change how they use language all the time. Then it may or may not become grammatically correct afterwards
>>720985357Pushamka!
>>720985743>do you really just bump against every single ceiling to see if there's a hidden way up?yes>do you really hit every single wall to see if it breaks?yesbut you don't really need to, secret walls are often really obviousalso you can hear fleas when they're nearby, just examine your map and circle around them you're bound to find a way in
>>720985993>and I feel>>720986046>I don't careThe world doesn't care about your feelings, anons.You're behaving like literal children (or women).
>>720982753You don't need to talk to the hermit nigger, he just points you to the actual npc, who is in a lone bellhouse above bellhart accessed via the leftmost windmill in graymoor
I'm playing the first one to see what's up, I beat the game with 108%, trying the path of pain, made it to the 2 dudes at the end and they killed medo I cry
>>7209828791) they kidnapped her2) they're fucking ugly and smell bad
>>720985743Look for ways in from different areas, not just the one they seem to be closer to
Lace is a very unfortunate example of writers caring about a character far far more than the audience.
All the crests do the same damage per hit right? Im trying to mix them up but theres obviously hard tiers like wander being number one and reaper being low. Is there any reason i shouldnt dope myself up on plasmium using beast? I want to be a feral bug.
>>720986186>>720986186https://www.stallman.org/articles/genderless-pronouns.htmlget fucked>"they". This violates the grammar of English so deeply that it feels terribly wrong. It also results frequently in confusing expressions in which the referent of "they" is unclear. For example:>"When my child was removed and placed with Dad, they internalised it and took it like they did something wrong." (Both the child and Dad internalized it?)
trannies in /v/ trying to justify them/themclassic
>>720986305I wish they cared enough to give her more than a couple of appearances.
Comfy
>>720985798No, that would be strange. I don't mind it in this game because they're bugs with often very strange ways of speaking and referring to themselves and others. Like I'm pretty sure the vaultkeeper even refers to himself as it. My tolerance would be a lot lower for a game with human characters.
so if i can beat Metroid Dread, can I also beat this?i'm not that good at games
>>720986305the fuck does this even mean
>>720986013That museum showcase from australiaApparently some aussies posted on leddit photos they took of the place
>>720986329...and what, exactly, makes sir Stallman an authority on this subject?What makes his statement more true than what the rest of the world has decided?>>720986425>No, that would be strange.As I've said before:>To you, maybe. To the rest of the world it's perfectly okay.
>Hive during early release of HK has no bossWhich area is the Hive of Silksong?
>>720986423She'll unashamedly walk around naked but she won't go nude in the sauna, what a weird bug
>>720986409That was a result of them trying to force a similar feeling to Hornet in the first game. Except instead of being cool and mysterious like Hornet was, Lace just ends up feeling forced into significance.>>720986476Lace? More like Lame.
>>720986534he has given an ample amount of examples as to why it is wrong. he doesn't need to be an authority.
why do people hate sand of karak?mechanic wise it's one of the better areai really like its gimmick
>>720982639Fetus, not baby

>>720986575She's an old hag, she gets cold really easily.
>>720983421I'm an aspiring writer and I'm gonna start writing my book soon (lol)It's a concept called "killing your children" in creativity. A brutal moment, but often times necessary for the cohesive whole. Sometimes you have to remove entire potions of a story, entire characters, or arcs, or whatever to make your work better. I can't claim to actually have done any work on paper, but I've planned alot of it out and one of the most important moments was me deciding to remove half of the character POVs in my story because it was too large, long, complicated, etc. Dispite the fact that there were a ton of parallels I was setting up with each early arc across every place in the story. In the end I decided a tighter, more cohesive narrative would be necessary. This kind of thing is a common practice across all creative fields
>>720986305Actually its the other way around
>they changed shermas voice at some point after the first trailerit used to be just a normal male voice, they knew what they were doing
>>720986305Projection
>>720986654Wisp Thicket unfortunately has a boss
>>720986625>he doesn't need to be an authority.If he is not an authority on the subject, then all of his statements are nothing more than opinions.Uncertainty often confuses people on the autism spectrum, but that does not mean the entire rest of the world should adapt to the way their brain works.

>>720986797you are no more an authority than he is. in fact he most likely is an authority because his line of work heavily involves knowledge of language.
LMAO THE DEVS TRUST THEIR PLAYERS TOO MUCH
If you actually look at the map history it looks like they implemented and then cut the coral area multiple times.Definitely feels like they only shitty part is 0 connection to the mount fay outside of the slab, its beyond retarded and makes no sense.
>>720986801It's a real shame just how bland the world of Silksong is.You've got like two lava areas, three forest areas, three swamp/sewer areas...Even the citadel isn't even that interesting: it's just hallways.
>>720986305Felt like Melina in ER, in a lot of promotional material and then basically a non-character who barely appears in the game
>>720986838just google it at this point, the 100% is not gonna clear it by itself (and the game certainly will not help you)
I'm just gonna say it. Lost Lace is an asshole.
>>720986865just like the 3rd ending
>>720986305I care about laceFuck you
>>720986920I fucking knew the Hunter's March was supposed to be a tutorial to tell the player to come back after you explore more.
>>720986920>hmmm bilewater is quite challenging and extreme step up in difficulty>its must be the zone thats shit and not me who has to come back here later
>>720986741They played Sekiro and Nine Sols are realized how much a cute shota improves your game.
>>720986920These guys are too basedFucking retards designing under the NES philosophy when people's heads got completely sloppified by accessibilty
>>720986423How do you get the steam to go hard?>>720986627Do they? I've seen very little hate for it besides bemoaning that it's difficult platforming-wise and crying over how it should have been more
>about to fall into bilewater>immediately heal>be somewhat submerged but the heal goes off>just float half submerged and get masks backlthis feels better than beat some bosses i love this feelingi can picture an mspaint comic of this and the bilewater looking upa nd being mad
>coral zone>in a bug-themed gamewouldn't fit at all. they'll either leave this shit for another game or some dumb dlc, same with that totally out of place steel bug in the trailer lmao
>>720986920>or even circumventing the challenge entirelyWe ALL beat the game
>>720987009Come back later? Come back for what exactly? Why would you leave the zone before finishing it
how long did it take for the very last content to be found in hollow knight?
>>720987063>Bilewater is too hard, go and do another zone instead>Get deep into a zone with no map>Fall down a hole>I'm back in bilewater
>>720986920That design goal also explains the shards system. If you run out of shards, it's the devs telling you to go somewhere else instead of banging your head against a wall. I think it works, but it also feels bad to run out of shards, so I'm on the fence if it was a good choice
>>720987159zero because its unity game that you can open in unity program
>>720987063let's be real it's the last thing most players at the end of act 2and it's still hardthe lower part of bilewater is piss easy

But to your detriment, all authoritative sources on grammar usage, Oxford English Dictionary, Associated Press, etc. will tell you that "they" is used as a gender-neutral singular pronoun for an unspecified person.
What's Lace laughing about? What's so funny?
>>720987291ojousama
>>720986920I appreciate and respect this method of game development... HOWEVER! (dumbledore voice) Team Cherry did not anticipate me being a stubborn fucking bastard and choosing to instead slam my head against every wall until it crumbled under the sheer weight of my autism

just how big is the mistIT JUST KEEPS GOINGi've rushed through rooms thinking "the bench is probably in the next one" but that was like 6 rooms ago
>>720986920This does make me wonder.Why do modern gamers hardheadedly bang their heads against a wall?

>>720987396lollmao
>>720985798no one calls their mother they
>>720987063I found Bilewater to be fun. The platforming was a nice challenge, and I like the strong repulsive aesthetic. The maggot status effect is also mostly aesthetic, since almost every room has respawning enemies to fill your silk up with
>>720986305She's memorable enough for me to care about her.
>>720987396Just a little bit more, anon. Hang in there.But don't stay too long, continue to rush more rooms.
>>720987396oh nonono
>>720986920Margit says hi

>>720987329Based autism king
>>720987129Shut the fuck up NIGGERthere are seabugsJust because the bugs are the baseline doesn't mean you should lock yourself into dirt and grass forever. Fucking lava doesn't exist in the "average" backyard either, nor does the abyss. Coral would not be out of place whatsoever.NIGGER, again, I declare you to be
>>720987129>that totally out of place steel bug in the trailerAnon, there are robot grasshoppers as a boss.
how do i reach that flea?
>>720987396lmao
is there a certain order to do the endings so you don't get "locked" out of doing them all in 1 playthrough?
>>720986728that's called "killing your babies" anon and writers have already spoken about it at length.
>>720987538look by the bellway
>>720987396kekarooooo
>>720987394I wonder if they plan on saving it for DLC
>>720987394DLC, trust the plan.
>>720987538that arrow points right way

bugs are icky
>>720987394>>720986801How long for dlc with these zones? They have the art and enemies done already
>>720987576found it, thanks
>>720987565I knowI just did
>>720987634their DLCs are freeif they are not they will be max 7$
>>720987063why do people want hornet to be an ugly furry spider so bad? for one she doesn't even have an insect or arachnid body.
>>720986920That copypasta was rightElden Ring made casuals way too comfortable with "hard" games
>>720987652Thank you for conceding.I hope you learned something from this conversation.Not every belief you hold is correct; being wrong isn't a bad thing, it's how we grow as a person..
>>720987368Oh, so that's why she likes soft furry things, because bees are like that
>>720987634NothingBecause it'll be free
>>720987634DLC for the first game was free
>>720987687It took a few months before we got the Hidden Dreams and Grimm DLC.It took like two uears max for all DLCs to come out.So who knows.
>>720987576nta but shit i forgot all about that after discovering it before having the wall jump ability
>>7209876345 dollarydoos
>>720987204The shard system doesn't work because the main time most people are using tools is when they're in a fight they're fully committing to trying to beat (because the shard system disincentivizes using them in most other situations). It was frustrating as fuck running out of shards maybe one or two attempts before beating the boss or gauntlet that I was trying to get through and having to go farm .
>>720977852>>720986938This, Pharloom is so drab compared to Hallownest. We got grey, brown-grey, beige, and I was waiting the whole game to get to this bit I'd been hyped for since the trailer.
>>720987281>for an unspecified personEarlier in the thread you tried to act like doing this when talking about your mom was normal. You're already fighting an uphill battle trying to gaslight and browbeat people about their own language that you are clearly not a native speaker of. But being outright dishonest like this is only making it worse.>>720987754That makes so much sense that I feel dumb for not realizing it.
>keep dying to bosses again and again until you memorise their attack pattern and you poke them to death through a window. Is this normal? I never played hollow knight before.
>>720987281these are not authoritative sources. they simply list meanings accepted by the population without concern for whether it makes sense grammatically. Mr. Stallman's examples are proof of this. people did not open a dictionary to find out whether they can be used in such a way.
>>720977779> coral zoneMan, I just beat the game yesterday ( regular ending) and I knew something was missing.
The boss dies on my trap right after he killed me and now i have to redo the fight. Mad gay. Even got the journal entry for beating him. The unravelled isnt fun enough that i want to redo it but i need to now.
>>720987983Yeah?That's a fairly common way to play called "learning the boss"It's more common to play that way than to leave and come back stronger
>>720986920>muh explore somewhere elsethey did this poorly, because you'll often just run into more dead ends, and find nothing useful (unless you do something autistically specific or find the right breakable wall)
>>720984654i love you so much anon
>>720987983A lot of the bosses they added later on in the first one never stood still either so pretty much, you were lucky to get one or two hits on them, the bosses in the base game were pretty brainless that you could just wack them in the face to death
Playing the needolin for Sherma while he's in Whiteward actually made me sad. Poor guy was traumatized.
>>720987902>because the shard system disincentivizes using them in most other situationsFor me it's the opposite. I don't hesitate to use tools when exploring around or fighting a gauntlet or boss for the first time because you'll get the shards back as fast as you spend them as you go through new areas. It's when I get stuck on something that I start getting stingy with them, since I'm not gaining back any of the ones I'm spending.
>>720988107Wanderer and flintslate spam him to death
>>720987983Yeah this is pretty much how this game plays.Being aggressive with silk skills can be good, but playing slow will always work. Though you'll get a bit tilted being so passive, you'll greed some hits. Eventually you'll beat the bosses, maybe even no hit them.Though a lot of bosses in late game are the exception with barely 1-2 abilities.
>>720987983hollow knight is a soulslike, and this is what all soulslike combat is likeif you dont like it then i dont recommend continuing
>>720987129>coral zone in a bug-themed game wouldn't fit at all
>>720988142>sees undeniably first hand proof his faith is not only fake it's cruel>still a believer
Lost Lace is basically the Consort Radahn of SS then, input reading and teleporting all over the place, with a knowledge check intermission lol.
I finished my playthrough almost a week ago and choral chambers is still stuck in my head wtf do I do
>>720983504When you shove censorship down people's throats on behalf of the babies don't be surprised when they don't like them
>>720988273it was a test
>>720988123Wrong. I did this consistently in all Acts and made things easier for myself every time.
>>720988286The first 2 phases are fun, the 3rd is just bullshit.
>>720981404>You can heal for 3 masks anywhere on the screen. At worst you can live through an entire phase cycle unless you're intentionally getting hit.Problem with Last Judge is that it is very punishing if you approach it incorrectly, and that will lead to failure for most players. Comparatively, First Sinner is going to get sucked off forever due to the more forgiving attack patterns (it's so easy to get silk by playing aggressively) and nonexistent runback. There's probably a way to be aggressive with Last Judge, but the easiest approach is to bait the jump / dash attacks.
>>720988439What, you don't like black on black while spaming void shit everywhere, with the boss sometimes jumping into your ass?
>>720988286nothing in SS comes close to the bullshit that was release cross slash from radahn
>>720987562afaik there's only one ending you can miss in act 2
Jesus the game is so big.8-20$ for Elden Ring+DLC basically
>>720987993>these are not authoritative sourcesWhat would it require for you to change your mind?Because everything from universities to libraries to government bodies agree that they actually are the authoritative source on English grammar.https://guides.lib.uwo.ca/english/dictionarieshttps://library.harvard.edu/services-tools/oxford-english-dictionaryhttps://www.dublincity.ie/library/blog/oxford-english-dictionary-online >they simply list meanings accepted by the population without concern for whether it makes sense grammaticallyCan you show some examples of this?>people did not open a dictionary to find out whether they can be used in such a way.Please provide a source for this statement.I ask this because you keep stating that [a significant amount of] people agree with you, but you have failed to provide any proof of this so far.>>720988347>censorship >on behalf of the babieslolwut
>>720988273One thing I like is that the game, nor the characters ever make faith itself seem like a bad thing. Only what they're putting their faith into because it's a farse. Even when Hornet tries to convince others that their devotion should be going towards something else, she never talks down to them or suggests that being religious itself is bad. Sherma is the biggest example of this. Though it all, he remains pious even as the world is crumbling around him. Hornet doesn't reject his offering of prayer and song, but takes his faith with her into the abyss
>>720987902>most people are using tools is when they're in a fight they're fully committing to trying to beatI didn't do that, and I'm pretty sure doing tool spam from my first try on made me able to beat bosses much faster than I would've been able to otherwise. I never had to farm shards, despite being far from great at the game
how you do citadel delivery without hook and double jump?
>>720987983I don't want to sound rude but that's how literally every video game works unless it's deliberately made to be easy. You learn the bad guy's moves and counter them.
>>720988527>impossible to rollpeople say it a lot for silksong but from actually didnt playtest it
>>720988273>naive, unarmed little boy makes it through a haunted murder kindgomHis faith isn't fake. It's misdirected.
>>720988273Also quick reminder that Sherma gets into the citadel even if you go through the exhaust organ, meaning his song worked and the Last Judge found him worthy to enter the Citadel
>>720988547>Can you show some examples of this?"they"you have conveniently ignored the crux of my argument - the fact that examples exist that clearly prove that using they for singular leads to unparsable meaning in some cases.
>>720988549The implication is that Pharloom originally had a proper buddhist/hindu adjacent religion before it got completelt subverted by the weavers
>>720988590Doable, but pain, like 2-3 hits max and you gotta be absolutely certain of your path (especially remember how to reach the npc in his room).
>>720988547You never heard of "think of the children"?
>>720988549I think the game's themes about faith/religion and class/caste are tastefully done and interesting. I've seen them being handled horribly in some fantasy novels
>>720987902use tools for exploration, gauntlets and adds, maybe *some* bossesdon't spam them like a retard trying to beat the game with it, but learn to integrate it into your playstyle so you don't run out of shards everytime you come across a challenging partyou shouldn't have to farm for shards at any point in game, you should have enough reserves and shard blocks to mitigate the few high shard usage moments
>>720988273you wouldn't get it

>>720988590Easily. I mean, I did it.The most important thing to do is to start at the destination and kill all enemies in all areas on your route. The best route I found, if you don't want to do it yourself, was going up in the first shellwood area, past the bench and up, jump over the pollen flower and head for the blasted steps - normal progression after thatEVERY enemy save for pollen flower and iirc 1 scythe mite will not respawn on this route, so it becomes a pure platforming challenge and requires you basically just never get nervous. No real enemies in your way, it's only you versus the geometry and your own nerves
>>720987902I don't even have shards to use tools if I don't farm. I don't spam them at all. The moment you use them casually against gauntlets, npc and mobs you will be instantly out of shards. The system is total ass.>j-just don't use them this isn't de-ACKMost crests have 2 slots wasted on tools (please use them!). Not one but two.
>>720988880I agreeTheres nuance here that you can try and pick apart. Many feared it would be a cliche "religion le bad" story. And while that does seem to be central, there's more to it
literally who?
So let me get this straightThe weaver got pissy one day(according to the red dream it's just their desire to dominates things I guess) , sealed GMS, and when they found out GMS is breaking out they fuck off?
>>720987902I only ran out of shards once and I replenished my entire supply + got 20 bundles in 20 minutes. Granted, my supply is 700. I don't know if that's the max but I started at 0.
>>720988980>kill all enemies in all areas on your routeyou didn't beat the deliveryjoking but it sounds seriously more annoying to do that than the run itself
>>720988273>you will never get to see Sherma leading the rebuild of Pharloom after the events of the gameHornet believed in him and so do I
>>720989041I believe they were afraid of herThey sealed her to sleep, but her starting to wake up freaked them out because she was the one who "ascended" them and thus could probably easily take that back
>>720987983Some bosses can be just beaten with turbo aggression, which is why Wanderer is such a good crest for boss fights. Lost Lace for example can be melted down super fast with the wanderer and flea juice by just relentlessly attacking her whenever the opportunity presents itself, even if you have to trade few masks for the hits you deliver, because due to your attack speed you'll earn the silk back to heal almost instantly as well.
>>720989035Blasted Steps, sandy cave to the right of Grindle. Play them a song.They're baby judges
>>720988273There's nothing wrong with their faith or pilgrimage. All the problems come from the influence that makes use of them. After the end of the story, you can imagine bugs like Sherma building their religion into a positive thing for everyone
>>720988538is it the "cursed" one?
>>720989141so it's not even gms fault and the weaver build the entire pharloom structure around faith to ???
>>720987407There was no NPC to tell them that they could take a detour. Simple as.
>pissed off by gank fights the entire game >see people in here complaining about the coral tower >finally get there >it's ludokino I first tried the crust man too
Eat your silk, Lace
>>720989035
>>720988681>"they"But that's circular reasoning.>the authority on english-grammar is not the actual authority>because they claim the usage of "they" can be used as a gender-neutral singular pronoun for an unspecified person>and this can't be because the authority on english-grammar is not the actual authority>because they claim the usage of "they" can be used as a gender-neutral singular pronoun for an unspecified person>and this can't be because the authority on english-grammar is not the actual authority>because ...>the fact that examples exist that clearly prove that using they for singular leads to unparsable meaning in some cases.Language containing unparsable meanings does not mean that the usage of language is wrong.Because if that were the case, prose or entire languages with words that hold multiple meanings would be wrong as well.I ask you once again to provide a single authoritative source for your statements, for they are opinions unless substantiated.
>>720989075>annoyingYou can just get the bug ride back to Bellhart so it's not that bad
>>720989075It's not bad at all. The run was awful because of those drill flying shit fucks so learning that those fucks don't respawn was what caused me to do it. Very nice especially if you have a sauna in bellhart to start at full silk for stuff like sprint charmEvery time I lost, and I did lose, it was near the end running into doors or walls like a moron
>>720989041>anon is clueless about grandma>>720989202>so it's not even gms fault and the weaver build the entire pharloom structure around faith to ???>not even gms faultYEAH TRUE GRANDMOTHER SILK IS TOTALLY 112% INNOCENT. She didn't kill the babies, she just ordered it! And those bugs were already dead, that's why it was legitimate for her to retrieve the silk they had!If only you knew...
>>720988819First of all, that's not censorship. That's a reason for censorship.And children are FACTUALLY vulnerable, both mentally and physically.There's a reason we do not allow children to work anymore.
>>720987407dark souls conditioned them to. Took lots of people a while to even think of leaving a boss and come back when playing elden ring
>>720988995>you will be instantly out of shardsThat's just not true. You can heavily use dual tools for several attempts without running out. It was always enough for me
>>720989165I would never have found them, thanks
>>720977658How do i beat the giant jellyfish boss in Godhome?
>>720988880>>720988549ExplainThe game seems to very much explicitly paint religion as bad
wish we had more of her
>>720989342I mean the structure of pharloom , the dogshit economy enslaved bugs and anti-homeless benches , GMS is just a radiance situation (again)
>>720989202The entire structure of the citadel is both GMS and the weaver's fault. They realized midway through that they were lied to about being as powerful as they were or something of that nature but at that point all of the infrastructure was set up to basically create a feedback loop of GMS growing more and more powerful. So they put her to sleep with THEIR POWERS COMBINED and attempted to run and hide as she began stiring
>>720989417patience. hit those exploding jellies into him when you can
>>720989417hit the small jellies towards the boss
>>720989185yes
>>720989436what's the deal with this statue and the npc near it anywaysdidn't seem like there was any way to interact with it and the npc just fucked off to the bench
>>720989375Children should fuck off.
>>720989541you'll see
>>720989541act 3
>don't have enough money for the bilewater map>mobs in bilewater don't drop beadshahahaha LOL
Ok so both the Weavers and GMS sucks , got it
>>720989202I think the Weavers created the citadel and appointed the conductors, keepers and architects to keep the melodies, then, fearing still granny they escaped, with time the citadel became more corrupt and started experimenting with silk, wich Silk used to start the haunting.
>>720989607>Not having rosary necklaces on you in case this happensThese are the people they are nerfing the game for.
>>720989573>>720989584understoodI think I've cleared basically everything on the map that I can reach right now, so I guess it's time to actually grab the three melodies and finish act 2
>>720989557And yet, the only way to ensure that they fuck off is through mass surveillance.Would you rather have censorship or mass surveillance?This isn't a trick question, as there is no "correct" answer.
>this one... the dark shall not take
>>720989607It's like 2 harmless screens from the fast travel anon, don't be lazy.
>>720989620yup
is GMS just shittier radiance that can't even hides in the dreamrealm?
>>720977658This run to bossfight is absolutely disgusting, just the way to waste your time and force you to lose health in 70% cases.Fighting mobs of poison explosive enemies before boss appear is also gay as fuck.I'm on the verge to drop the game, love it overall, but sometimes it's too much tediousness.
>>720989431I already explainedHornet doesn't ever imply that the actual act of having faith, being pious, or religious is- in itself- a bad thing. Just that what they believe is a lie because it is. But she recognizes that even if the religion of the citadel is bad, the individual pilgrims who are faithful are often stronger for it and survive longer because of their piety, again, with sherma being the main example of this
>>720989276they/thems won chuddie
>>720989727>Shittier RadianceMakes sense since it isn't the last boss
>>720989727No, the radiance ruled dreams, GMS has power over silk, they have different powersets.
a song of silk and lace
>>720989761you can heal here
>>720989871So let's say the third game has another bug theme since Radiance had power to attract bugs to light and Grandmother Silk had the power to ensare bugs in her web. What would be a good theme for the next game?
>>720989431I think the game shows both the good and the bad in being religious.Many bugs do incredible things in the game because they have faith, like just making their way through Pharloom.On the other hand, the religion allows the bad guy to make use of the pilgrims, and blinds them to their being a corrupting force. And even still, she needs to raise the dead to make anyone fight on her behalf
>>720987902I think the shard system is fineIf there was no shard and tools were essentially infinites (only needing to be "reloaded" at a bench), then there would be no reason to not mag dump everything you got in the opening moments of any bossfight / gauntlet (or more likely once the last phase is reached), otherwise it's free damage you're wasting by not using. To balance this, you need to make the tools suck and reduce their damage otherwise you're basically forced to make bosses with even more bloated HP, otherwise they would melt too fast to be any fun and won't leave any ilmpression on the player.Tying the tools to an infinite resource you may run out of occasionally force you to be mindful of them while letting you go ham once in a while
I DIED TO THE FUCKING SPIKES IN CORAL TOWER AGAIN
>>720989768Yeah this. The game is saying that faith is strength.But also that religions can be completely subverted topdown by forces greater than you. So regardless all you have is faith to keep you going and sometimes that's all you need in the darkest of times.
>>720989689Nice... I mean kino

>>720990067>Play as Dung Defender and fight a primordial dung god
>>720989968This time we use a vinegar and soap solution
>>720988439I beat her third phase first try, but I used cogflies so I didn't actually beat the game.
>>720989980your argument would make sense if only the game didn't allow you to have 4 upgrades for capabilities and damage.it's lazy and boring design, they didn't care enough to balance the tools themselves, so they went the crafting route. And it's more frustrating when you arrive at roadblocks and you have to farm stuff.
How long until we someone makes mods for Silksong that turn it into the ero-game it is clearly meant to be?
>>720990078If only I cared about Lace as a character...
>>720989768Also to add to thisThe game is as much "industrialization bad" as it is religion bad" or even moreso, as several locations were physically desolated by the influence of the citadel's polluting nature. But in this, hornet doesn't stop and say "working hard is bad, technology is bad, etc." She still respects the forge daughter she bason (?) For continuing to work even after everything has fallen apart. Because dutiful work is a virtue.I'm saying the game takes the same approach with the themes of religion and faith

>>720990323Find faggot
>>720989727She's fucking incompetent too. Her whole story is just self-sabotage start to finish. Then at the end she's completely healthy and at full power but still can't do anything right and her kingdom is crumbling all around her.Compare that to Pale King. When unopposed, the guy would create a thriving kingdom where he was adored by everyone all the way until another god screwed him over.
>>720990235I think a sign of good commentary is that it points out bad systems (or bad implementations of them), but doesn't blame individuals for them

>>720989964l-lewd
So let me get this straight, Phantom is a they/them enby?
>>720990467goodgigachad.jpg
Do you think Lace feels bad for killing all those people?
>>720990174Well yeah obviously the tool damage has to scale up over time, same with your needle
>>720990467Baaased
>>720990467They're right though, it's the same as Elden Ring. Up until the final few bosses you can just leave and get stronger to make the game easier, I did this for groal, moorwing, beastfly etc.
>>720990467Then why did they ruin the platforming difficulty by making all hazards do 1 damage?
>>720990467>Silksong has some moments of steep difficulty – but part of allowing a higher level of freedom within the world means that you have choices all the time about where you’re going and what you’re doing.This is what I've been fucking saying. The only thing that has annoyed me really is that some of the bosses are a bit too long, but people complaining about shit like benches costing beads. Normies just want an easy win handed to them. Don't eat steak if you are a baby or something- Mark Twain
>>720989257Makes me think that the Judges had no clue about the faith being a farce as well.
>>720990661they patched it?
>>720990576I agree for the damage, but there was no need to upgrade the capabilities too. That's why, somewhere in this argument, there is something that just doesn't work. I'm not criticizing you, you are right too, and that's what I'm saying: they were just lazy and choose the easiest route, but the worst route fun wise. But at the same time, when you can just use poisoned cogs on anything to trivialize some bosses, is balancing even the real reason to use stones for crafting?
>>720989257I wonder if the implication of that area is that the Judges aren't haunted?
>>720990467>more freedomNot sure.
why does bilewater of all places have such dreamy music?
>>720977658where is 1:05? any hint pls?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XGeJwsUP9c
>>720983421I do that sometimes. Some things just don’t fit the vision. It’s pretty easy to throw away shit even after they’ve been polished
>>720990901They are haunted because they are affected by the void since Grandmother Silk is still attached to everybody when she falls.
>>720990446Not really? It's still unclear what she did and what other people did, and during all the story she's sealed by the citadel.She has no interest in preserving her prison.
>>720990981Sing the gay bug a lullaby
>>720990661>>720990765I knew things felt like they got easier! Fucking cucks. At least keep certain hazards at 2.
>>720990446Pale fingers typed this post.
>>720991246lava and steam are still at 2.
>>720989663The correct answer is neither. If some retard doesn't want his child to watch porn then don't give the kid an iPad. It's not my problem.
>>720990543Nope. Which is why she should be subjected to death penalty.
>>720991380>It's not my problem.It is, however, society's problem when children are raised to wish for the destruction of the nation they are growing up in.
>>720991495Not a problem either. That's free speech.
>>720991364The worms in the desert area should still do 2 as well, this is unacceptable.
>>720991547Unfortunately for you, you live in a society.Meaning that the decision is not solely up to you.
>>720991642No sand carvers were nerfed.
>>720990202If I only asked
>>720991068Whatever you want to argue her goals to be, she's thoroughly failed at achieving any of them. There's nothing holding her by the time you fight her in-game. She was free to do whatever at that point but chose to wallow in bitter misery instead because ???
Someone bake please.
>>720989964>tags: sph
>>720991682I'm saying they should have stayed at 2, yes.
>>720991682All sand carvers were nerfed.
>>720990467It's funny that they say they made it harder because they were bringing enemies up to Hornet's level when most people seem to agree that the Knight would shit on Pharloom.
>>720991652It was up to Thomas Jefferson and his boys and they designed it that way.
>>720990543Who?
>>720992006How long until mods for Knight in Pharloom and Hornet in Hallownest?
>>720992006The Knight's spells are overtuned and he has like two OP iframe abilities.
>>720992132Please do show me where they wrote about the internet!
>>720991723Again we know from the maskmaker the citadel kept her sealed, and widow makes it clear she's still sleeping during the story, the only time she might be free is during your fight, in wich she dies because of special circumstances (her power being bound, the greyroot parasite consuming her or the void capturing her.
>>720992006The knight can't even access half of the map with his limited movement.
>>720992339He'll find a way.
>>720992339shadeskips
>>720992336>she diesUnless consumed by void, pale beings cannot die, only transform.
>>720990467holy fucking based
>>720992006I think the knight lacks the agility to maneuver well Pharloom.
>>720992542It really seems being consumed by Hornet/the parasite killed her.
