I beat the game at 97% and I'm not sorry
>>721777896It annoys me too that the % is kind of meaningless. On the other hand, the game is shock full of random hidden secret passages and minor trinkets to pick up, that if it actually tracked all of the non-inventory content events, it would be a massive chore to get everything, and probably removes a lot of the magic of having obscure content in the game that, although the internet spoils everything, isn't part of a checklist and so people don't really talk about that often.
So are Sinner's Road and Bilewater just supposed to be India?
How would you fix the crests?Hunter - Make the bonus damage a gradual build up, maybe add some minor animation cue when fully focused.Wanderer - Make you only gain 0.75 silk per attack. (I also considered lowering the range further, but I suspect two thirds of the people complaining about contact damage are using it)Beast - Give it 6 charm slots like everybody else, I really don't understand why it only has 4.Reaper - Give it 2 silk slots and 1 tool slot, make a much shorter version of its ability trigger when using silk abilities.Witch - Already perfect.Architect - Already perfect.Shaman - I don't know, I didn't really use it. By the time you get it the game is almost over and enemies are too damaging to learn a new moveset.
Just finished the game. The fucking fact that the last thing I hear is Lace laughing her fat ass off while Hornet stares like an autist at the screen. I'm genuinely pissed off after all this aggravation.
The scuttlebrace glitch is so fun, I hope it doesn't get patched. (It will)
>>721790350If the % complete was just removed, and replaced with smth like % to unlock steel soul, which would be far less than the actual 100%, it would probably feel a lot less like a checklist, and make things a bit more obscure since less people will go out of their way to look for it.
>>721790730do tell
I cant fucking deal with the dashmaster race anymore, fuck this shit Ill just finish the game on 9 masks. better than having it be the one thing that makes me burn out.
>>721790693Funnily i think it was supposed to be a cry laughing since Lace's understanding of the world got shattered.
>>721790121
>>721790658Shaman is fine
>>721790842You can just hit him to slow him down
So why did Karmelita turn into Super Kami Guru

WHERE IS THE SHERMA PORNWHERE
>>721790989I think some bugs just get huge as they get older
>>721790795If you scuttle against a wall you can wall jump and you can chain this. This includes not climbable walls. You can just scale random shit with it it's awesome. I think it will allow for some really cool shit but we'll see if anybody find anything cool.https://youtu.be/sKmKiqRuV90?si=yPYBOQcousuETldk&t=524
>>721791174Fuck I wrote the timecode wrong skip to 5:24
>>721790658Hunter, Architect, and Shaman are perfect the way they are. Give the other act 1 crests evolutions too (probably via a relevant quest rather than unlocking slots). Put Wanderer's crit behind the evolution. I like your idea for Reaper, since I think there should be a spell crest before act 3. Put that silk generation on spells thing as its evolution.Agreed on giving Beast two blues. For its evolution give it an effect similar to its bind that builds with each hit but rapidly decays.Increase the range of Witch's bind by like 20%.
>>721791174Interesting, thank you
>>721790730Yeah, Team Cherry are pretty permissive about leaving in skips. But they tend to kill anything that can cause a soft lock. Although with it being effectively impossible to do by accident, there is a small chance they may not.
>>721791174God I wish they just make it so you can get out of that hole. I'd love access to Shaman Crest when there's still game to play
Making a modern Metroidvania and not at least putting a percentage counter for each area on the map is psychotic especially in Silksong where there are invisible passages
>>721791270Nothing about the level design made sense in any biome.
>>721791547No problem dude, glad I could help with the Mexican issue
>>721791572You'd still have to wait til act 3 for them to open the door.

What controller are you using to play Silk Song?
>>721791854A generic xbox controller, with the left stick broken, so flicking left has a 30% chance to actually turn the character right, and diagonal down right isn't registered unless you push basically 180 degrees down. I had a hard time with the platforming segments... I miss my chillstream controller.
>>721791854
>>721791270my thoughts:ur a fag lolbut seriously it not the city of tears at all, it's a huge complex ackin to Draculas Castle or the Mother of Mothers in Blasphemous, actually exactly like the Cathedral in Blasphemous.The design aside from maybe a few weird ascends is also pretty solid, this just sounds like nostalgia nonsense from your side and not accounting for the a biome the size of the whole HK game (well if we are generous and forget about the optional sides), it's not a town either, the choral chambers have many large rooms for people to chill, the other regions all seem to have a purpose too so I don't see your problem.

I cheesed lost lace with cogflies tacks and architect i am not sorry
>>721792618He got filtered by some act 1 boss
>>721790121Nobody cares, bosses and mementos don't count towards completion percentage at all, whereas fucking tools are 51%. Nobody is going to judge you for preferring to fight shit than grind basic enemies for cash.As long as you fought everything and did the mementos worth doing (so not Journal grinding but otherwise), spiritually you got 100%, and that's all that matters.
>>721792671You are, that's why you're confessing
>>721791662Ok, but I was only speaking about shaman
>soidditors and twitroons have run with the parasite quest abortion allegoryit's over
>>721791174>softlockmisleading notion because save rollbacks are built into the game, but I understand what he's going for
>>721792765What they fail to realize:Hornet keeps it, the whole operation treats the symptoms and she learns to live with it instead.
>>721792765I'll still think it's about STDs, abortion fags can suck my nuts for all i care
>Finally got to the Flea Games>Its cancerCould I just... not do it? I've never felt less desire to engage with something than I do now.
>>721792765Anyone who supports this theory hasn't played the game for this reason >>721792841. There's no way you can interpret Hornet keeping the thing as an abortion allegory.
>>721790658Your reaper change is fucking busted. I suppose you could make silk skills cost 1 pip less when under the reaper bind effect. Wanderer needs to lose the crits. Wanderer is op not because of its damage but because of how much silk it can generate. Since you can't really mess with that identity, the least you can do is weaken it.

>>721793007You want permission from us or something?
>>721793096>>721793134
>>721791572Anon that is what mods are for. I found a mod that has all crests unlocked at game start. It also has all slots unlocked but you can autistically self impose not using slots until you get lockets I guess. Shaman is really fun early game for general traversal.
>>721793265Interesting. Your turn.
>>721793096It's likely the same autist, he was doing the same thing from day 1 while posting cp, how do you guys not realize the same guy has been trying so many different ways of shitposting in these threads? Just accept silksong mindbroke some, and learn to ignore them.
>>721790121Yeah I got 99% after Lost Lace because I missed some monster entries or some shit, but I'll be fucked if I'm going to go combing through the levels again, or even worse, look up a completion guide.>>721792692Thanks, Anon. I really needed that.
>>721790693She was laughing at you and Hornet gave you the "what a fucking faggot" stare
>>721791174I wonder if scuttlebrace goes up walls even if you don’t have the ability to climb walls unlocked.
>>721791083Fitting Shermas whole dick into a single image is difficult due to sheer size.His big dick energy made the judges just fuck off.
>>721793557It probably does. But I doubt it's possible to get clawline without wall jump. So it would be a mod only thing.
>>721793421Maybe you are just retarded the only thing I ever looked up was the full map at after I beat it to see which secrets I missed to make it 100% to not check every biome for cracks in the wall and corner transitions.The fleas you can ask Vog for and I found every single one legit.Sure some were contrived but it was fun circling those marks on the map from all angles possible, just to find large secret portions like the whole fucking whisp thicket from the most unexpected angles.I had all but 3 when I bought her guidances anyway.
>>721793747I can understand that impulse, but there's also a joy to community and discussion. My enjoyment of Nine Sols and Silksong was definitely informed by the threads.
Man Wisp Thicket was a cool area, it had exactly the kind of boss I felt the game was missing during my blind playthrough, and dodging fireballs with the Hunter pogo was very fun. I will concede the area feels completely unrelated to everything else in the game though.
>>721790693>the last thing I hear is LaceAnon, I...
>>721793927I agree with this. The wisp cult stuff is a really cool idea, but the whole zone just feels wrong for where it's located. They could have easily made the zone a steam filled scrapyard and the cultists weird underworks scavengers.
>>721790658Hunter - give it gradual build up and make it not lose all of the buff in 1 hit. Wanderer - 0.8 nail damage, 0.5 silk gain, 0.5 stagger against bosses. It's fundamentally stupid for a quick build to stagger faster than the supposedly heavy attack crests.Beast - 6 charms is a valid call. 2 reds, 1 blue and 3 yellows. No clue why it got butchered so hard while Wanderer has better damage overall without crest slots taken into account.Reaper - each silk ball should restore half a silk bar. I've seen it so many times that I picked up a ball, it gave me 1/3rd of a silk bar and after a few seconds I lost the 1/3rd. Some would say Reaper should also get 1.1 nail damage and faster stagger to bosses, but I think damage wise Reaper is just right.Witch - make it so when the tentacles spew outwards, to track enemies a bit better, I've lost count to how many times I've seen the tentacle whiff a hit leaving me with no health restored.Architect - It seems fine for what it is supposed to doShaman - 1 tool slot in the middle, 2 silk slots top and bottom. Also add a way to get it earlier, before act 3 preferably. Getting a new crest 50 hours into the game is wrong.
Karmelita is the best boss of the entire gameThere are some bosses where you can cope about how a death wasn't 100% your fault but everything she does is totally fair and telegraphed and it's still very tough
>>721793007The flea games test the 3 basic mechanics you should have learned till this point. Dodge projectiles, pogo/platforming and hitting enemies entering your range. If you have trouble with any of the games, you probably didn't learn the basic mechanics and brute forced the game till this point.
>>721793308Quit screwing around.
>>721794435Huh. That's actually a good point.
>>721792568...what the fuck are you talking about botsama?!
What's the more efficient runback for Watcher at the Edge, the Pinstress' house or the Blasted Steps Bellway?
>>721794621Bellway, Pinstress route has you wait for the wind and is also quite longer. From bellway all you have to do is 2 timed coral platforming sections.
Okay hear me out, dlc where you rebuild Twelfth Architect.
>>721794435At no other point does the game expect you to dodge that much stuff with that little margin for error. And neither does it require you to hit multiple enemies across an entire arena in quick succession. It does sometimes floor is lava you. And wouldn't you know it, that's the easiest of the games.They're clearly intended to be challenges. Acting like you haven't played the game properly if you don't instantly stomp them is retarded.
https://youtu.be/Gk-lmu7DT5IThe movement in this game has gotten so autistic that now Hornet is crawling around like a spider
>>721790121Lore accurate for her to remove her panties, easier access for the billions of bugs cock
>>721790658An actual problem with the hunter is that logically you'd expect all crests to be about on par and for there to be no best crest right?But the hunter evolutions are strict upgrades over the previous version, meaning either full evo hunter has to be the best lategame crest or no evo hunter is the worst earlygame quest.I'd make hunter just start out fully formed and replace the 2 now missing eva rewards with a green vesticrest that can host a blue or yellow tool, and a 4th silk heart.Otherwise for crest balance I'd make everything have 3 tool/skill slots and 4 util slots and just vary the red/white and blue/yellow ratio instead of having wanderer outright lack a down skill or beast have fewer tool notches.
>>721794994>add a sprint so people don't have to constantly dash to move around quickly>constantly dashing is still optimal so speedtrannies have to do itI'm pretty sure this was some intentional trolling by Team Cherry.
>>721794440Old bugsWarningWarning
I don't get the hate for Beastfly II specifically, I had his moveset down to a T and third tried him, I event forgot about putting on the magma bell. Now Beastfly I on the other hand killed me more times than any other boss in the game. The second beastfly honestly felt therapeutic after what I went through with the first.
>>721794961>At no other point does the game expect you to dodge that much stuff with that little margin for error.Nigga in the flea dodge mini game you sit afk for half of the time. And you have margin for error. If you get struck you still have time to harpoon to a platform, harpoon to a flea, or if you got struck in the upper part of your screen, you have time to recover, double jump and land on a platform again.>And neither does it require you to hit multiple enemies across an entire arena in quick successionHalf of the combat challenges in this game are enemy gauntlets. >They're clearly intended to be challengesTrue, challenges are supposed to test what you have learned. If you stayed 3 hours trying to do the juggle minigame, you aren't being tested, you are being forced to learn.
>>721795071>or no evo hunter is the worst earlygame questIt's this. Or that's the intention anyway. (lol beast)And I don't see any issue with this design decision. You start out with the most basic crest with no special gimmicks. Then you gain some others that each have some special feature. But not long after that you can upgrade that original basic crest to be special too.
The Unravelled made me rage quit so hard that I drove to town, got drunk, and uninstalled the game. Now I'm reinstalling.
any tips for Lost Lace? I can get to the phase where the black waves come in somewhat consistently now.. but I still get btfo before that
Struggling with the ant queenAny tips?I got the pattern down but its more like the damage builds up over time
>>721795113It was the same for me pretty much. The only extra is that you need to manage lava platforms. But the Beastfly actually gives you a lot of time to think and do other things when he's charging in a long, straight line. Once you have a strategy for where to put yourself and for how long, it's just the same as Beastfly 1.
>>721795237...just use your tools. The boss has like 2 moves, the only cancer part is the billion hp
>>721795102The intention was to make dashing responsive, which it is, but the unavoidable side effect is that mashing dash will slways be faster
I'm missing one spool fragment. Most recent one I found was under the elevator in Whiteward.
What the fuck is going on with half the replies in this thread having nothing to do with what they're replying to, is it really all bots? is /v/ dead?
>>721795321I used up all my tools bro. The fact that the only hittable part of this boss is a tiny, trailing triangle of white cloth that also happens to inflict two pips of damage is fucking maddening. It's a shame cause the boss itself has a really good design.

>>721795714what is it that makes her so hot. is it the continuous babbling?
>>721795292If you stick to the walls she's going to teleport on top of you. If you attack her during most of her slashes, you can clank with them and you'll be able to attack on beat with the rest of her combo once you do to cancel the rest. When you can't tell where she is, stay grounded and prepare to move. Save any tool spam for phase 3. Don't get greedy and try to do damage while she's firing homing bolts, the damage isn't worth it. Healing two damage when you can is better than healing three when you have to, especially if your silk is full.She wants you to chase her. Be patient and fight at your pace, not hers.
>>721795458It's the guy who is very angry at the game for whatever reason and spammed gay furry porn in the threads until he got rangebanned from posting images. He's not using a bot either but doing it manually, which makes it more pathetic.
>>721795228>you sit afk for half of the timeSometimes. Because that game in particular is a massive RNGfest. But that's not relevant to the margin of error I'm talking about. Even the literal floor is lava sections don't set you back a minute plus for ever touching the lava one time. Nothing else in the game is as punishing if you get hit out of a double jump. And the platforms are some of the worst in the game with it being more likely than not if you clawline or dash into the side of them that Hornet will fail to grab and drop below them.>Half of the combat challenges in this game are enemy gauntlets.And? At what point did the high halls gauntlet require you to hit enemies on opposite sides of the arena within a second of one another? Or any other gauntlet or boss fight? When was this apparently essential skill ever involved in any fight in the game?>challenges are supposed to test what you have learned...Nigger, just stop. You said something retarded and now you're doubling down and pretending to be even more retarded so you don't have to acknowledge it. These games are unambiguously intended to be more difficult than the things you have been expected to do up to that point. Why don't you go ask Team Cherry themselves if they think a player having trouble with any of those games means they brute forced their way to fucking act 3.

>>721795936Seriously, everyone was complaining about the Coral Tower I was expecting something way worse than what I saw.

As for the 5 hour speedruns, they are very easy once you find a route and know the bosses' patterns. Probably the hardest fight in the 5 hour speedrun is that High Halls gauntlet.

WHAT WERE THEY FEEDING MY GUY??
>>721796827I honestly find it hard to take any criticisms about difficulty seriously after seeing just how bad the people making those criticisms tend to be. Nothing in this game was annoyingly difficult, and they STILL nerfed things to make it easier.

>>721796936You can always get Shakra to show up in Bellhart by hitting the ring she has there.>what color did you guys do your house?Red. My desire for it to match Hornet outweighed my desire to be different from everyone else.

>>721797093You can do it now. You could also look at your charms and tools and see what could help you in your quest.
>>721797093the item needed to explore mount fay is at the ass end of mount fay good luck
>>721797125?
If your max silk with a coccoon out wasn't exactly enough for one heal then Wisp Lantern wouldn't be that bad. The mooks in SS are a lot more dangerous than in HK, so when you haven't died or if you're wearing the spool extender you can really appreciate it. Maybe if there was a way to toogle it that would help too.
>>721797190You go to Mount FayYou climbs to the topYou gets the cloak
>>721797125>>721797136all i know is double jump is there somewhere. i bet the fire weapon would help. i'll give it a shot, i've almost exhausted paths that don't require double jump.>>721797096i wanted it to match the mask
>>721797093you need to move fast enough to make it to warm safe zones before you freeze to death.go back when you unlock the Clawline, because you need it.the freezing effect turns off once >>721797125
>>721797313>warm safe zonesokay that sounds pretty reasonable.what the fuck is up with the slab? find the keys later?
>>721797295You can also use the charm for quicker silk regeneration so your hook shot doesn't run out
>>721791239Witch's bind range is fine, its strong enough to make up for the short range, what they need to fix is not getting the full heal if the enemy dies to an early hit from the bind.
>>721797136>You could also look at your charms and tools and see what could help youI was disappointed that magma bell doesn't slow it down at all, and even flintslate is "warm" only during the activation animation, not while you're swinging a weapon still actively on fire.

I'm bad at the game but I'm still having fun learning all the platforming and enemy and boss patterns. 60 hours and I'm still exploring and doing things in Act II.
New mod on nexus.
>>721798186Same. I suck at dodging so Father of Flame is going to keep me occupied for a while, I just keep getting hit constantly by wisps and fireballs I should be able to dodge easily
>>721791270>but it failed to deliver.I disagree. I was waiting for a City of Tears moment and the cutscene at Choral Chamber and the music cutting in delivered for me. But I came in through the Grand Bellway, which I think is a better experience of exploration. The Grand Gate is really cool too.City of Tears is boosted by the Quirrel Bench and the Hornet interaction at the statue, but it's pretty boring beyond that
>>721798402I just arrived at this place and bossfight and desiced that that's enough Silksong for today. My brain needs some sleep so that I can learn to dodge all this stupid shit.
>>721798402>>721798538Remember your magma bell

>>721798862Non-Architect OD is really only worth it if you are trying to do Steel Soul legitimately without Save+Quits.
>>721799036To be honest they kinda go hand in hand, just do the SS 100% and the speedrun will happen naturally. The 30h time limit is super lenient, it's not something you will have to worry about if you already know where things are or are using a map.
can you save quit in HK too?
That Coral Tower gauntlet was aids why do the devs keep doing thisIt just kept going on and on and on WHYLiterally the only redeeming factor was the last bossSPACING
>>721799369shut up gauntLET *snicker*
>>721796203I consider Cogwork Dancers the boss of Cogwork Core desu, though I would've liked another robot boss in the game, something like a larger, more advanced and dangerous version of those steam guys seems cool
>>721796156It's Greymoor for me, I fucking love the melancholy of that area
>>721799648I mean you also have the 2nd Sentinel

canon btw
so what, that's it?bug world is fucked?
>>721799714I was going to say Second Sentinel too, since you first wake it in Cogwork Core, so technically its a boss that originates FROM that area and is thematically linked to it, but being technical, you actually fight it in High Halls

>>721799780It's a pretty hopeful ending though? Way more happy than anything in HK by a fucking long shot.
>>721790658>Beast - Give it 6 charm slots like everybody else, I really don't understand why it only has 4.Because it's bind is a bootleg flea brew and is used in place of it (due to the attack speed cap)While also functioning as a bootleg LongclawWhile also functioning as a bootleg focusIf only the fucking thing played nicely with the Swtooth Circlet like Hunter and Witch does I'd honestly be using it forever.
>>721799990Learn to draw cute bugs yourself in the meantime
Well its done. I dunno if I'll have the patience to do Steel Heart though. I just know I'd wipe to Karmelita or something and lose my mind.
>>721800216Elegy bosses, Garmond, Shakra and First Sinner deaths don't count.
>>721800282really? like I get it if it's Garmond's or Shakra's fight since they're sparring sessions, but the other fights you mention don't count? literally defeats the purpose of steel soul
Any good Steel Soul strats? There are a couple boss skips I can think of, intentional or not, I feel like early game is the biggest hurdle since the world really opens up in Act 2, there's only so much you can do to strengthen yourself before either Last Judge or Phantom, still there are a couple optimizations to mitigate risks:>Move fleas to Greymoor to skip Moorwing>Skip Sister Splinter by taunting one of the flying flower enemies in the Wall Cling room and pogo off of it>Skip Fourth Chorus by sprint jumping off screen, binding mid air, and dashing to the lefthand platform (this is probably 10 times harder than just fighting it though honestly)Then there's obvious shit like grab Wanderer early (you don't need dash for it if you pogo off the flying enemies) don't go to Hunter's March or fight Beast Fly too early, use the Fractured Mask as a safety measure if you're gonna save + quit, etc. etc.For act 2 you can pretty much avoid most major bosses until you've got a lot of upgrades, and the ones you can't skip aren't very hard (cogwork dancers) I'd probably just beeline grabbing Architect, cogflies, and cogwork wheel to spam during fights, and I'd make sure to abuse Plasmium for platforming shit like Mount Fay or enemy gauntlets
>>721790658Wanderer is something I agree with, half Silk build up would go a long way to balancing it.Alternatively keep the build up the same but make the Bind only heal 2 Masks.I think Reaper needs a small buff. I was thinking maybe just a slight damage increase on its normal attacks but giving it a short Silk Regen buff on Skills like you said would actually work pretty nicely. The others are already fine as is. Hunter is already great as the all rounder and Beast/Architect/Shaman are all kinds of stupid with how powerful they are.
>Silksong buzz finally slowing down after a whole monthWe're free.These threads have been fun bros. Same as all the other comfy threads like with Elden Ring, Nine Sols, and especially other games where secrets are involved. It was fun discovering shit with anons.Let's meet again once DLC comes out.
>>721800362Yep, if it's a boss where dying on normal mode doesn't send you back to the bench it's not a real death.
>>721799036>Yes, also give a scrub some pointers.get the mask thing in hunter's march within the first 5 hours, if not your run is probably over past greymoor (you'll need to be good and have some traps for the ant gauntlet)if you get down to 1 heart (2 before mask) save and quit to title, you respawn at a bench with full healthThe speedrun achievement is not hard, as long as you know where to go, don't wander around pointlessly and don't spend too long on bosses you'll naturally reach 100% in 25 hours or less (I did it in 23)
>>721800413no problem lad
>>721800392reaper basic attack should be top only instead of alternating too and bottom. Maybe make it have even more range to compensate the abysmal speed. Or an execution mechanic where it deals double damage to enemies that are two hits from death.
>>721800362This is how Steel Soul worked in Hollow Knight too though, the harder dream bosses you kind of have to face to get enough essence to awaken the dream nail for the dream no more ending, all don't count as deaths when you die, and neither does all of godhome, only radiance and white palace count as deaths
>>721800413NOOOOOI'm still not done! I'm not even in Act II yet!DONT LEAVE ME
>>721798862:(
>>721800413Man we burned through so many threads in a day earlier didnt weYeah great game looking forward to the content packs
>>721800362Those fights happen in a metaphysical memory realm, it's exactly the same as HK where the fights inside dreams will not actually kill you in reality.If you noticed you don't lose your Rosaries when you die in them either, and every time you leave you show back up in exactly the same state you were in before you entered health/silk/tool-wise.
I hate indians so fucking much it's unreal
>>721800679>every time you leave you show back up in exactly the same state you were in before you entered health/silk/tool-wise.But not First Sinner, because fuck you.
>>721800789First Sinner isn't a memory.It's a duel like Shakra/Garmond, it's her testing you.
>>721800440>>721800554>>721800679conclusion : steel soul mode isn't a real iron man mode
Im wondering how you guys deal with flying enemies. I think theyre a little bit over tuned.
>>721801160Dash at them or pogo from the top
>>721800413See you on the other side, bugbro
>>721790658>HunterDoesn't need to change, its evolution already rewards good play.>WandererReducing the silk gain goes against its idea of being a crest you use for exploring. Just reducing the damage to 80% the regular amount already balances its attack speed and crit damage enough to not be inherently overpowered.>BeastI hold no opinion on its crest amount, but the bind buff should either have no heal limit, or shouldn't be removed on hit. Either one of these changes would make me actually consider using it.>ReaperThe opposite buff of the wandere, just make it do 120% damage to make up for its accuracy, and to give more reason to attack with the bind so you don't miss out on silk lost from quicker enemy deaths>WitchUnironically just change the upward slash to not be angled. It pisses me off.>ArchitectAlready perfect>ShamanMaking it available before Act 3 would already be a major buff, but having one yellow slot outside the vesticrest would let it have better build variety than just fully speccing into skill damage.
>>721801160Clawline and thread storm.
How do you get to see your percentage? I beat the game a while ago but it didn't show the completion % anywhere?
>>721801160Depends on the exact enemy and what abilities you have, what stage are you in the game?
>>721801160Toss a few sting shards into the air and they take care of themselves.
>>721801439I've already beaten lost lace, I just never learned to deal with flying enemies properly. I usually try to dash/run towards then be as aggressive as possible
>>721801376Install the Farsight upgrade inside your Bellhome.If I remember right you find it in the Weaver's Nest in the Abyss.
>>721793927Lore wise I think theyre trying to burn the silk away before it controls them. After you kill the boss of the area they lose the source of the wisp fire and kill themselves
>>721801532Huh, I thought Abyss was in Hollow Knight, not in Silksong?
>>721801736You just got spoiled. Better get yourself into Act 3
>>721801736You did not actually beat the game then anon. Keep playing and doing stuff.
Any other games have a fencing style combat boss like lace ?>>721795979
>>721801757Can you defeat the final boss in the citadel and then continue playing to get into act 3 or do you need to do all kinds of things and then defeat the boss to get into act 3?
>>721798385>sex appeal go down
>>721801736Did you just beat Grand Mother Silk once, got an obviously bad ending and decided you beat the game...?You really should know better than that if you've played Hollow Knight
Bros...
>>721801804You can't lock yourself out of anything if that's what you are asking. Just keep playing the video game.
This is abysmal dogshit and I keep dying to it
>>721802038UseYourClawline
>>721795385Fucking same, with my last one being whiteward one as well. I'm losing my marbles
>>721802038That one's not too hard, you'll probably have it soon
>>721790989Have you ever seen an ant queen, anon? They're fucking huge, fat, and full of eggs.>>721790693I interpreted Lace's laughter as being genuine happiness for being saved from the Abyss and is now free to make of herself what she wills, but also sadness because she realized she inadvertently killed her mom who still genuinely loved her and gave up her life to save her despite betraying her. Her own fears of being replaced were ultimately unfounded and now she has no one left in the world. Compared to the proud daughter of Hallownest, Lace is the sad orphan of Pharloom.
ZANZIBAR!
>>721801767I cleared all the wish boards and quests I could find, all I had left to do was beat the boss. Then I got a final cutscene, the end credits and "Thank you for playing" so what else is there? Suer, I didn't try to 100% secrets or anything, but I don't see anything else I can do.
>>721802093>use clawline>get hitFuck you.
>>721802251>and now she has no one left in the worldGoing by the title screen she has hornet
>>721802264is that thing also his wife?
>>721802304Have the fleas moved to the ducts yet?
>>721802335They're hardly friends, but given Hornet's taken responsibility for Lace, it's not hard to see they're stuck with each other. Easy to tell Lace has SO many beatings in store for her in the future.
>>721802405Yeah. I've got a few more fleas on my map I can't find a way to, but I've also got 40+ hours in the game now so I'm not really in the mindset of grinding away, smacking walls until I find some hidden gap to access them...
>>721802316Sorry anon. I was being kind of a prickDo you have the sawtooth circlet? Using it to get free damage made that boss fight much easier for me.
>>721802304Visit all the settlements and talk to all the NPCs there.It will be incredibly obvious when you find it. If you don't find anything incredibly obvious you need to explore more.
>>721802509>Doesn't feel Pure Vessel tier at the very least.You have not fought Pure Vessel any time recently if you think he's difficult compared to almost anything past the halfway mark in Silksong.
>>721802481If they're at the ducts and you've completed all signpost quests you probably just need to speak to the caretaker saying "Oi" at Songclave and follow.his instructions.
>>721790417>when you see it, you'll shit bricks
>>721802586Lace 2 is already harder than Pure Vessel
>>721800850First Sinner is absolutely a memory, just not in the same way you access Elegy of the Deep.>Uses Widow's boss theme>Has the exact same second phase fakeout>Also uses the exact same voice as Widow>Instead of directional bells, it's directional silk spears, and silk rune attacks>Widow canonically had her silk production sealed, forcing her to use other silk threads to perform makeshift versions of her old attacks
>>721802769The only relation The First Sinner and Widow have are both of them being Weavers, you missed every single bit of lore surrounding those two if you think they are the same being.
>>721790989Because IRL ant queens are like that.
>>721802769Widow is a traitor that sided with GMSShe's literally the exact opposite of the First Sinner who kickstarted the entire rebellion
>>721794018>creepy eyes againUnironically what's his endgame?
>>721802883>>721802976No I'm aware of the lore, but literally all the visual presentation makes it seem like they're meant to be the same person. It makes no sense from a lore perspective, but in presentation it's the only reason for them to not only use the same voices, but the same battle theme, and attack style. It's one thing to draw obvious parallels to them both being weavers, but it overlaps too much. My only guess is that the First Sinner you fight really is a memory, which is why when you enter her cage you only find a staue of her. Widow then is First Sinner with her mask forcibly removed and replaced with a shawl to make her subserviant to GMS.
>>721790121>I beat the game at 97% and I'm not sorryThat makes you a nigger
How brown do you have to be to end up this mindbroken by a game about bugsJesus christ
Jas he been having an autistic spergout for like 5 hours now?
>>721790952sus
>>721802769First Sinner isn't a memory in the same sense the other fights are. It happens when you try to Bind her, Binding in Silksong is something like taking the remnants of a beings soul and integrating it into yourself for power.What happens is you try to "absorb" the last traces of the First Sinner's soul essentially, the fight with her takes place in some sort of meta-reality where she tests your worth during this process.
>>721803189>>721803206Friendly reminder to report and hide
>>721795531That explains the fact that he somehow wasn't arrested for spamming literal cp
>>721803152>which is why when you enter her cage you only find a staue of herThat's not a statue anon. It's a coffin.The same kind of coffin you see at all the other Weaver graves you get your movement upgrades and silk skills from.

>>721803425Maybe it's Stockholm syndrome, but I genuinely grew to love bilewater, in fact, I've been thinking about this game and this area in specific, a lot ever since I finished it. I think I'm going to enjoy going through it again on replays.
>>721803537Definitely stockholm syndome.Bilewater is anti-fun incarnate.
>>721803579I like how vertical it is and that there's two areas just to prepare you for it, I've gotten really good at platforming and pogoing the enemies there too. It's fun.

anyone can help me out?love this mod here https://www.nexusmods.com/hollowknightsilksong/mods/158?tab=descriptionbut I don't love having GIT GUD as a taunt. First, I don't actually understand it as a taunt despite the memes, and second goddamn it is loud (since in original context, Hornet is screaming over rumbling and sound effects and rushing winds and all that shit)It's a file replacement mod, meaning that I have to imagine you can simply edit the file yourself and change it. But, how? It's called herosfxstatic_assets_all.bundle so, does anyone know how to fuck with it? Like is it something you need Unity to edit? Just a package like a .zip you can fuck with?

>>721790350>>721804498its the same as in hk where the percentage isnt actually a percentage at all but just a series of 100 points you earn by completing tasks. there are far more than 100 tasks in silksong so some of them just dont count. in particular, tool acquisition takes up over 50 of the points. some stuff kind of works since even if they dont count as percentages themselves, theyre prereqs for stuff that does. eg, fleas arent points, bu the egg of flealia is, so you do need all fleas for 100%, though its still weird not to have the counter go up as youre making progress.and then a ton of stuff straight up doesnt count:>tool upgrades (druids eyes, curvesickle, purple mirror)>bosses>mementos>wishes>double jump (this one is ultimately a prereq for a lot of others but its fucking weird it doesnt count when every other upgrade does. its clear they had 101 things they wanted to count and had to cut something)
>>721804252>Did any of you struggle with the last bits or managed to do 100% much earlier than all mementos?I am still missing a spool and a mask shard.
>>721792630I can't imagine playing this on a keyboard. platformers on keyboard feel awful
>>721803537Bilewater is actually pretty fun when it comes to platforming. If you remove the maggot water and give it good lighting, I genuinely think it would be a fantastic area.
its done. 8 and a half hours. every other boss took under an hour, except Groal. I forced myself to use the same build I had used the whole game, no cogflies and tacks
>>721804716I get that. I’m saying “percentage completion” is meaningless if “do all side quests” isn’t a thing it measures. Trobbio 2 isn’t Plasmified Zango. You have to kill him in the course of a wish board wish. You should not be able to get “100% completion” with an incomplete wish sitting in your fucking quest tab.
>>721804815oh i agree completely, sorry if i came across wrong. i wasnt trying to explain the system i was just bitching about it kek. they should have just assigned a point to everything in the game - bosses, wishes, the lot - then shown your percentage of the number of points you have out of whatever the total came to
>>721804843It’s been 3 threads and the bot STILL hasn’t been reigned in.
>>721804910If I had been TC I’d have counted everything more aggressively such that completing all of the Act 2 content and getting Silk and Soul was “100% complete”That would have been “breaking in to act 3” feel far cooler and the whole thing could have just amounted to 136% completion or whatever, where you never had a clear sense if you ACTUALLY found everything because there was no obvious upper bound.
>>721798385Shit bait.
>>721805028There's just one major problem. You cant even see percentage completion until act 3 for some stupid reason.
>>721790121>beat>97%yeah, no
>>721803451>>721805161You can't see percentage completion until act 3 because then you'd extrapolate how big the game is instead of being surprised by how big it is by discovering new areas.
> HOLLOW KNIGHT> Snail gives a soul technique> SILK SONG> Snails are obsessed with voidWhy
>>721805161i dont actually have a ton of beef with this since you cant complete much until act 3 anywaywhat i have beef with is the stupid fucking acts system in the first placewhat would the game lose if act 2 was the last act and the "true ending" just took the form of the lost lace fight immediately following GMS if youd done silk and soul, like the radiance following hk. you could have descending into the abyss and the escape sequence as necessary to acquire the snare setter or some shit. just put the heart bosses in their areas as regular optional bosses. theres pretty much nothing in act 3 that justifies act 3 existing
>>721800120How often are you binding? All of that is reduced dps and no other silk skills used. And what does that have to do with not having tool slots available? Just two of the weakest tool slots (yellow)
>>721802038It's a pretty meh fight, just keep away from her and just punish her when she moves to attack
The fact that you basically have to constantly hit all the walls of every room to make sure there's no secrets hidden there is kind of annoying
>>721790121I got 100% even without finishing the journal and mementos so it's a scam anyway
>>721805520The mementos really aren't worth it. The alternate map quill colors on the other hand...

>>721805161Not true. You see it on the credits screen. It would be very cool to see “100% completion. 24 hr 07 min 29 sec” and then see your save file permanently “locked”… and then realize you could choose it anyway if you tried hard enough and there was a secret ending sequence. And then that secret ending sequence had a boss fight. And then that secret ending sequence opened into a full map with a shitload of content. That would have been amazing.

It trades range for speed; it doesn’t need to give up total damage output too, being more vulnerable to whiffs is balance enough>”evolved Reaper”Builds silk off of charge attacks. Should give about 2 needle strikes worth of silk per charge attack that connects.This plays into its “wait and strike with a big dick swing” feel.

>>721806630That's fine, not everything needs to be among the best crests, something has to be the worst. It's the one that's forgiving and helps people who are having trouble with the game.Game's still beatable with it you're not severely hamstrung
>>721806607It's funny how it selectively gets mad about Silksong when there's been regular PEAK and Dandy's World threads for much longer.
>>721806582all the complexity is just retarded bloatthey had prefection and ruined it by adding 300 pounds of shit
>>721806738It's probably a tendieThose discordniggers are conditioned to talk about their slop for no longer than 2 weeks, so seeing people actually enjoying and discussing a game makes them irrationally angry
Is the gay furry spammer really that butthurt about the green prince?
>>721806738okay I'll go to the dandy's world thread thenthank you kind siri tip my hat to you and bid you good day
>>721806783>"I burned you with flintslate, stalker child. Enjoy death."
>>721806915No, weaver child, it is you whose life is already over, enjoy prison!
>>721790658Remove the crit from Wanderer and put it on Beast and/or Reaper. Increase the time you have to heal via attacks after binding on Beast. Extend the size of the hitbox on Beast's dash attack all the way to the ground so that it doesn't whiff on every bug close to the ground.
What is the point even in giving the player all these mask pieces throughout a1 and a2 only for every single enemy in a3 to do 2 hearts of damage a hit?Thats one of the biggest issues I have with this game, there is no sense of progression at all. You get more mask pieces but then the enemies just do more damage. You get needle upgrades but then the enemies just get more HP. And the whole Crest system just amplifies this issue by 10x. The upgrades you are finding, the memory lockets you are finding, the Crest specific items you are finding, they all mean absolutely nothing. Unless you're the kind of player that switches Crest for every single specific situation. But I can guarantee you 95% of the playerbase just sticks with their favorite Crest, so all of these upgrades mean absolutely nothing.WOW another Memory Locket! How very fucking useful when I will never switch between all Crests. The first game didnt have this issue, you would get more and more fun charms to use and more and more charm slots to put them in, thus increasing your strength consistently and no upgrade you would find would feel useless. Im in end of a3 right now and I sincerely give this game a 6/10. It doesnt even deserve indie game of the year award, its just bad. Everything in this game is designed to make the player feel bad. And then you have these rabid fanboys who pretend that going through this artificial player suffering somehow make them "chads" lmao its fucking pathetic. What a miserable, unfun experience this slop was
>>721805963some mentally ill zoomer is shitting up the thread. He's been at this for hours btw.
>>721806242>As a Reaper player, I don’t think it needs anything to buff spells. It isn’t a crest for people who use a lot of themThe extra Silk you get after Bind is Reaper's primary gimmick though. It's a Crest that incentivizes you to have a good mix between Needle and Skills with frequent Binds. I used it for pretty much the entirety of Act 1 and 2 and what I did was pretty much>play Needle only until enough Silk for Bind and 1+ Mask missing>Bind to heal and buff>get Silk back with Needle hits and spam Silk Skills until the Bind Buff wears off>start again from the topThe Silk Skills I mostly used were Sharpdart to deal damage at the same time as getting behind the enemy to collect all the Silk Orbs I generated before and sometimes Cross Stitch on more aggressive enemies since it helped further keeping the Bind Buff as long as possible.I don't really see how else you'd play it honestly, if you aren't making use of Silk Skills it'd just be a slower Hunter.Charge Attacks do build Silk now by the way, they changed that for every Crest.
>>721807034He's been doing this for days. The commitment is very impressive. If he could apply this kind of focused concentration towards something creative, he could go far.
>Gore and tranny porn remaining undeleted in the catalogI think jannies just don't care anymore
>>721807109these new jannies aren't doing a good job. Someone should dock their pay.
I'm patiently waiting for randomiser mods :))
>Have to slog through the opening until you get the sprint before the game can be fun again
>>721807087a lot of people see reaper gets extra silk and think "cool that means i can get hit more" when its actually the crest that punishes getting hit the most and if you get hit a lot and need all the extra silk for heals is just very slow and low damage making you take even more hits since you cant easily sneak hits in and everything takes forever to die
>>721806738>>721806914i can't believe you'd do this to us
>>721799881>>721799801I got that but forgot you fight here whereever, otherwise there is also the big 4th Choir(? was that its name)
>ITTLmao is this botanon from /vn?
>>721807029>Unless you're the kind of player that switches Crest for every single specific situationThat's me. I'm that player.
>>721807339Yeah, that's kinda why I ended up switching off of it in Act 3.I just could not consistently avoid damage while playing aggressively anymore. It already started with Lace 2 and just kept getting worse, by the time I hit Karmelita I ended up switching to Wanderer.
>>721795385Luckily my last one WAS the elevator one.Did you get the fucked up one hidden in the wall in the citadel?
>>721807029>But I can guarantee you 95% of the playerbase just sticks with their favorite Crest, so all of these upgrades mean absolutely nothing."Maining" is a mental illness. This isn't a MOBA.
>>721807346Sorry anon, I wasn't even trying to incite him to move. I think he's just trying to find any way to get people in these threads banned through vaguely associated planned raids or some shit. Jannies are taking their time but they are banning him. He's eventually going to burn through his proxies.
>>721807029Pretty much how I felt after beating the game a while back. It feels like it was made for tryhards and speedrunners of the female (actually male) variety first and foremost, and I spent a good chunk of my playthrough angry and annoyed at the bullshit that the game kept throwing my way. The community aspect of working with anons in order to find fleas/pale oil/secrets/wherever the hell you're supposed to next was fun, but it was the kind of fun you can only have with a newly released game meaning that subsequent playthroughs won't have this going for them.
>>721807087Something early desperately needed several silk slots though, and Reaper seems like the best option. The spells are diverse and wonderful but odds are you're just going to be using Thread Storm for 100% of the game, it's really a shame.

Is this bell actually FOR anything other than flavor?
>>721807691Having a 2nd skill slot would be cool, yeah. It'd set it a bit more apart from Hunter too I think.
>>721807601i know you weren't trying to incite him, i was just being a lil shitter. i'll get outta here now.
>>721807730It rings when you first do the enemy gauntlet there. But yes it's for flavor.

And it turns out the fag is the scatgr15fag, which atleast did make them reveal their true self, so that's something.
>>721808020almost like disliking videogames is a telltale sign that someone is a subhuman
A3 was so bad that it straight up just ruined the game for me. I tried my best to 100% the game in A1 and A2 but in A3 I was having so little fun that after a while I just said fuck it and skipped a bunch of shit to rush to the ending. Didnt even feel a goddamn thing anymore either on the final bossfight or some of the closing cinematics, the game succeeded in annoying and frustrating me so much that I straight up started hating the game.I will never come back for a DLC, I will never play a Team Cherry game again in my life. Bravo faggot developers, you lost a future customer who actually was a fan of your previous game because you decided it was a good idea to add tons upon tons of artificial difficulty through tedium and timewaste
What compels someone to make a bot that spams cheese pizza, furry scat, and copypasted posts for an entire month? I get /v/ has some people who vehemently dislike HK, but eugh.
>>721807730Come to think of it, what's with these text interactables you find every now and then? I thought that they couldn't just be flavor, considering how hard to reach some of them are.
>>721808451>What compels someone to make a bot that spams cheese pizza, furry scat, and copypasted posts for an entire month?being a rape victim
>>721807594Even if you regularly switch between 3 different Crests for various different situations (which I can guarantee the majority of players doesnt do), it still means that almost half of all Memory Lockets you find are a complete useless waste of time and thus provides the player with no reward for their exploration. Once again this was not the case in the first game. Every charm slot mattered. Crests were a horrible design decision, period.
>>721807963Oh fuck, I didn't even do this on purpose, it's only a few frames away from a loop.

>>721807029Anon, are you running this bot because it’s the only purpose you can see for your life? Find a church. Find one that teaches how all have come short, and that Christ is our only advocate. Odds are that God has plans for you far beyond the scope of what you’re doing right now.
where's the boss rush mode TC?
>>721808781That post was made by me. I havent visited a Silksong thread in 5 days. I just wanted to vent my frustration about my closing thoughts on the game because Ive waited for this piece of shit for 8 years and it was a massive dissapointment.Its arguably even more of a mental illness to think every person criticizing the game is the same person or a bot
>>721808351Act3 turned me into a break taker. Starting Act3 I just took like a 2 week long break from the game and even now I'm taking like a day long break between sessions. I can only take so much.
>>721808451>a botHe's doing it manually, if it was a bot it'd probably be faster and certainly more consistent.
Act 3 wasn't bad
>>721808594Even if you don't use them, up to a very late point they'll still unlock more vesticrests and Hunter upgrades.
>>721809116It just feels like bloat. Like they crammed in a bunch of ideas that didn't quite make the cut on their 1st pass.
>>721808781>>721806327Apologies for the other anon. I just looked for the first post with more text than average.

>>721809116Unironically depends on your skill level.There feels like there could have been an entirely additional act between 2 and 3 to get players of lower skill levels ready for act 3.Like how a Bayonetta (2) eventually gets you ready for NSIC by just going through the other difficulties first. Because when you first get there everything that like double the HP, does double the damage, and inflicts a silk drain. Ain't no fucking timmy who struggled with GMS gonna be having a good time from this point forward.
>>721809118You unlock the second vesticrest either immideately or soon after unlocking needolin. And if you don't use hunter then you are straight out of luck. The only unlock you get is silk regen after collecting all of them.
NAO!
>>721806630>then why does it go up to 112% dumbassexpansions
Could someone give me a few pointers without much spoilers? I found a diving bell, where do I get the key for it? Did all the quests except delivery ones past Laqueur. Also, is there more than 1 way to kill Monarch? I have a theory I wasn't meant to just smash B
>still missing a mask shard, a spool fragment, and two toolsbruh
>>721809598Need an edit of the Wojak trying to sleep.
>>721809682>I found a diving bell, where do I get the key for it?The diving bell is for a quest at the start of Act 3.You use it to dive to... whatever is beneath Pharloom.
>>721809682The diving bell is for much later. Focus on finding the fleas and getting them to move to their final location if you haven't.
>>721809683The spool fragment is either under the whiteward elevator or past the hidden wall over the Bone bottom. Maybe in the Halfway Home.
>>721805335>> HOLLOW KNIGHT>the Shade Soul and Descending Dark upgrades come from snails>> SILK SONG>> Snails are obsessed with voidMakes perfect sense.
>>721809761Is the flea quest a prerequisite to unlocking act 3? I'll keep looking for them then.>>721809750Oh ok then, thanks anons
>>721809897I genuinely thought they were going to trick you a 2nd time with the heart spell.
>>721808451Probably the same kind of shartyfag that NEEDS to have 6 kratos meme threads on the catalog at all times.
>>721793007It's literally easy, I don't get why people complain about these at all. Compared to the delivery for the previous pale oil it should be a piece of cake.

>>721790658>ShamanMake the beam's size and distance depend on the amount of unbroken masks you have.
>>721809992Would have been based desu. I find it really weird that they unleash void on the whole kingdom then seemingly sacrifice themselves to help put it back in its box.Seems kinda pointless. woulda made more sense for them to just be dastardly tricksers who CANNOT be trusted.
>>721809959You don't need all the fleas for act 3, but you need enough that they move from the gate to their final destination.
>>721803086Those are the same eyes, the unmasked maskmaker has: it signifies seeing through the facade of civilization; seeing the world for as it is.
>>721805345>theres pretty much nothing in act 3 that justifies act 3 existingits so blatantly reuse of content scrapped earlier in development. i odnt understand how they had 7 years and still rushed
>>721810056How in the literal fuck do you get filtered by the Fourth Chorus of all bosses? I'm not even good at the game and I still beat him with very little trouble.
>>721810053The delivery is way easier than flea bounce. Youre delusional
>>721809116No Act 3 is terrible boring and bloated and locked behind tedious grind.I rushed through the main quest and didn't explore anything or do any sidequests until after I rolled credits the first time btw.
>>721800392>Wanderer is something I agree with, half Silk build up would go a long way to balancing it.>Alternatively keep the build up the same but make the Bind only heal 2 Masks.How about this>make the bind heal one mask at a time like in HKBecause it's the HK crest after allThis way it would work just as well for exploring, but be nerfed in boss fights, where you're not going to be able to chill out and heal three masks straight because bosses are so fast and aggressiveAs well as imho reducing the stagger on it (and increase the stagger on Reaper)This way the crest fulfills its purpose of bringing back HK movement, is just as good for pogoing and exploring (it's called "Wanderer") but is more of a struggle against bosses
>>721809683Just check all the walls ;) unlike the FUCKING notches, every major upgrade has its own room or you need beatings if you were in that room and didn't take it/came back (like with the mask in south west mount fey)
Where do you get the Crustnut and the Pickled Muckmaggot?
>>721793684cremini lookin' ass
>>721794435There was no juggle enemies mechanic in the game until you hit the flea show retarded fuck. You also have to apparently do it again with some seth guy but he's not shown up for me after beating him in the woods.
>>721810292He gives a few tips for them, Crustnut he mentions the sands, check those blasted steps again with your new tools. And Pickled Muckmaggot requires you to swim with the maggots so...
>>721810292Crustnut is up in a new desert area you access through the Blasted StepsMuckmaggot is in an indoor spot in Sinner's Road but you need a double jump
>>721810332juggling is basically attacking upwardshow could you miss that in the entire 2 acts you complete before having access to the festival?
>Using the Flintslate when you're in Mount Fay delays the freeze debuff because it's a fire tool and it's temporarily keeping Hornet warmHoly SOUL
Wanderer is cool and all but I hate how it made unadaptable autists, including my oshi, settle for it so they can just play fragile HK.Like nigga, if your brain is too stupid for a diagonal line, just do it in the last few frames almost crushing into the enemy like you have to do with wanderer and its little reach anyways.
>>721810332>after beating him in the woods.You need to speak to him in Shellwood and Greymoor in that order.
>>721794885Could be kino. Give Sherma a robotic helper/wife to rebuild Pharloom.

AHOOOOOOY!AHOOOOOOY!AHOOOOOOY!AHOOOOOOY!
>>721794885I want the DLC to focus on you fixing all the fucked up void areas. I don't know how they would do it though since it would kind of fuck up the lore of the true last boss fucking shit up. I guess it could be a theoretical Act 4 when everything is fine, but it would then lock you out of fighting Lost Lace, unlike HK where even after the final DLC the Radiance fight was always available to finish the game.
>>721810760What's up with that fag anyway? I WANT MY LORE! prechewed and with some lame memes spit back at me.
>>721810982The lore is easy enough to understand without some faggot loretuber telling you what to think.
>>721810629>make one crest blatantly superior to every other option>what the fuck why is everyone using that crest???It's not even about the diagonal jump attack, I actually liked that, but the attack speed and the crit chance just makes every other crest basically a challenge run.
>>721810760This is the new normalSucks doesn't it?It's why I was hoping and coping VR chat became big enough that it became the new mainstay. So that streaming returned to something normal.
>>721810982He's probably doing a lot of prep work for an immediate lore summary of Silksong instead of doing what he did before with multiple small-scale videos hyperfocusing on 1 or 2 things before taking all that info and refining it into something definitive.
>>721810982He starved to death because the accumulated lore in Silksong amounts to only a single morsel.
>>721810980There is no more fucked up Void stuff after you take Lace out of the Abyss anon. That problem is already solved.The only really looming thread left in Pharloom that we know of is the Lifeblood/Plasmium infestation
>>721811124>Lifeblood update in Hollow Knight was the smallest >Lifeblood update in Silksong will be the biggesttrust the plan
>Killer the Craggler completely risk-free by using the boomerang+poisonYeah I'm kind of an high IQ bug
>>721811185exceptional anon but even as a retard jumping up for 2 swings and going back into hiding did the job without wasting resources
I just got to the Last Judge and I hear it's the end of Act 1. Is it preferable to run around the entire map looking for random stuff or should I just fight him and start Act 2?
>>721811124No, what I mean is after beating the game you get placed right back at the boss door, as if you hadn't beaten Lost Lace. That's so the game never locks you out of the true final boss, like in HK, but as a result the world will always have to stay in its fucked up state before the last boss fight. DLC could fix this with an Act 4 that moves beyond the last boss fight in the story, but it would be weird to have a save you can't "beat" since the TLB is canonically gone in the story.
>>721810980It'll never happen. Team Cherry fucking HATES the fact that HK became known as la "cozy game". They fucking hate that. They will never allow a game of theirs to breathe. All they know, being Australian, is constant environmental hazards and apocalyptic omens. Everything starts shit and then gets worse. All they know is constant anxiety and escalation. The DLC will be a boss-rush culminating in Pharloom being nuked (because bugworld is set in the post-apocalypse)
>>721811297You won't miss anything killing him now
>>721811185who the fuck is the craggler
>>721811307Just let us fix Bellhart please I want my comfy town back. The rest of the world can stay fucked up.
>>721811067>make one crest blatantly superior to every other optionIt's really not though. Generally speaking if you abuse everything the game offers to its fullest the balance is something like this:Architect >> Shaman >> Beast = Wanderer > Reaper = Hunter
>>721811067It's even less that its attack speed is what makes it powerful, it's that its attack speed and style make it the easiest crest to pick up, and thus the laziest. DPS can be matched by other crests with engagement in the actual mechanics with tools, but being able to circumvent that with just spamming X makes it way too appealing for people who don't want to think.
>>721803832it doesnt have to be hard to be good bakanigger, technically it's S tier, a dance
>>721811124So they ALL just live with that shit nesting in the depths?It needs to be stamped out, tragic brother killing included, he probably just repaid the favor anyway.
>>721811383>Using Hunter with maxed out focus in that engagement so you're doing the highest damage in the game Dishonest post
>>721792678>>721810760>>Player switches to Wanderer's Crest and never takes it off>>Complains about 2 mask damage nonstopWow he just like me.
>>721811439The Abyss exists everywhere anon. If you go deep enough it's there no matter where in the world you go. Best you can do is seal off all entrances and plant some flowers like the Pale King did.
>>721811380I really don't see how no hit full hunter isn't the best or high up, assuming you are "abusing" everything
>>721811448It's just what I had on hand quick, but the max focus just reduces the hits you take to kill these guys by 2.
>>721811307It's not that deep. They're just autistic nerds who like video games, and the "fandom" is a bunch of secondaries who don't like video games.Team Cherry play and love shit like Zelda 2, Megaman, and Metroid. The noisy social media posters upset about Silksong prefer Homestuck and Markiplier.
>>721809598>>721809692
>>721811558Assuming a target dummy situation where you just sit there and spam normal attacks no hit full focus Hunter has the same DPS as Wanderer BEFORE you factor in crits.Hunter is nowhere near strong enough for how brutal the requirement is.Meanwhile Architect can nuke down Lost Lace in quite literally 10 seconds while being borderline immortal from Plasmium OD.
i like the sounds in silksong. breaking a rosary necklace. putting rosaries in a bench or bellway thing. the hand slapping sound when you climb up a ledge.

>>721810332>There was no juggle enemies mechanic in the game until you hit the flea show retarded fuck.There are a handful of enemies that do a plunge attack towards you, and there are also a handful of bosses that throw projectiles at you from a height, Like the bell throwers in Citadel, Trobbio, Bell Eater, etc. Also no need for harsh words, I have feelings too, anon... I was trying to help
>>721792630Me, I recline my char a little and lean back. Maximum comfy for this slow paced game.
>>721812227Bigger
>>721808691The trick for her is letting her come to you. If you go to her to try to smack her you gon get raped.I liked most of the bosses in the game, they are all generally fair. Even trobbio 2 didn’t feel unfair to me.
>>721812473Trobbio was more boring than unfair. Too much stalling.
>>721810173I genuinely cannot fathom someone struggling with the pogo mini game. That was one I did on my first try. Put on wanderer and it’s exactly like playing the OG HK. How are people that bad?
>>721812273The moveset is cool but the unique Bind just ruins it for most peopleIt only heals you if you manage to hit something in the small PBAoE surrounding it so it's super punishingI think it'd be more acceptable if the rest of the toolkit was stronger to make up for it, but it's pretty on par with the other Crests
>>721811851In HK it was stated that Herrah was a "common beast" instead of a true high caste Weaver. What we know from lore bits in SS is that the Weavers are slowly losing the "gifts" that GMS gave them when they were first "uplifted" from being mindless pharlids into Weavers. I think that the reason Herrah looks like that, and why she's called a "common beast" is because she's further "de-evolved" compared to other Weavers. She looks more bestial because she's closer to her original pharlid ancestors than other Weavers.
>>721811951More cushion for the pushin'
>>721812749Reaper makes it even easier since it has a HUGE hitbox and a slowdown effect during the jump, I got up to 100ish on my second try with it and probably could have kept going almost indefinitely
>>721812246Well I guess I gotta do it then
>>721811870That's fucking stupid lmao
>>721799780nah, your little brother will tard wrangle the void if need be. Pharloom will be quite damaged after all the void covered threads punctured it all over the place but with Silks' death that should stop being the case and the void'll flow back into the abyss.
>>721812128>>721812036Memorium, not Voltnest. Voltnest gets you the "electric silk skill" tool.
>>721812273Movesets fine but with a crest where your only heal is also a damaging nuke the AOE is so small and enemies are so flighty you either get nothing or bumped out of it and lose your time and silk and probably even die
>>721802038>use tri-knives since it feels thematic against her>stun her top left>she plunges into the abyss and fucking dies>teleports back up and I last-hit her with my nail when she's up on the right>falls off the cliff againI was dying of laughter
>>721811851Well fed + Different kind of spider being uplifted
Is accessing the abyss for the 2nd time to fight Lost Lace a point of no return?
>>721813437No. You can always leave and come back.
>>721813437No you can just go back up whenever.
Alright so let's say you only can choose one.Weavelight or Volt Fillament?
>>721790121Apparently all these people beat Silksong but still can't tell me who Eric Barone voiced in the game.
>>721810760Why not do your own stream instead of watching others?
>>721810107they likely expected Silk to get consumed, and possibly Hornet. They did not expect Silk to fight back and threaten to kill all of the kingdom.
>>721803537bilewater is fine. The only stretch i would say is questionable is the rooms before the secret bench. They are rather cramped so trying to dodge the guerilla shitcongs gets a bit annoying with falling in the sludge. I really wish i had the soldier saying "i like the way this sucks" because its how i feel about bilewater.
>>721813771Not that hard to google it, but yeah the only shit that sucks is those dart shooting niggers. They just slip away and never respawn, making the Groal arena the only good place to farm them for the journal.
>>721813564i never even heard the mans voice. Theres no way i could identify which one is him going abluebadacana
>>721810107The snails didn't want to consume the kingdom, they just wanted to kill god. Silk managing to survive the void wasn't intended, so they killed themselves to help finish the job.
>>721813553Weavelight isn't that good if you attack often
>Bump limitIt's been good boys, see you when the DLC turned Sequel comes in 2035
>>721813968wait they kill themselves for the ritual? I thought they just fucked off goddamn i am retarded
>>721813553>ShamanBoth, Volt if only one is allowed>Anything elseTrobbio mirror. Also the 1 reserved heal tool is better than Weavelight imo.
>>721814076Hollow Knight 3D: The one where you actually play as the Hollow Knight.
>>721814076just dont kys ok?
>>721814130buddy... Did you think they just decided to streak and run out of the hovel, leaving their shells behind?
>>721813553Depends on your Crest and playstyle.For Shaman you really really really should get both.For everyone else I'd rather do Weavelight, just because it's so incredibly comfy for exploration and platforming.
>>721814076Seeya anon. Threads were fun despite certain happenings along the way. I'll still be sticking around for a while though, maybe head to vg once things really start to slow down.
>>721814198ye. I really just thought they ran away because they realized Hornet didnt have any use for them anymore and might kill them just because. Thought leaving their shells would be like saying they are free now or some bullshit.
>>721814286>I want to show my family that I am free now>I will leave my skin on the living room floor to show them
>>721813553Select Shaman CrestEquip Pale Needles, Weavelight, and Volt FillamentUse Pale Needles, wait 5 seconds for Silk to come back, use Pale Needles, wait 5 seconds for Silk to come back, use Pale Needles, wait 5 seconds for Silk to come back, use Pale Needles, wait 5 seconds for Silk to come back, use Pale Needles, wait 5 seconds for Silk to come back, use Pale Needles, boss is dead.
>>721814401hey buddy, im retarded, no need to rub it in further
>>721801108How many babies does she have?
There are no words for any writen or spoken language that can describe my hatred for this mob.I literally cannot figure out how to counter them.
>>721814447>Pale NeedleYou mean Pale Nails. But yes, it's kinda stupid how much free and easy damage you can do that way. It's basically like Poison Cogflies on steroids. I think even Lost Lace is only 10 casts or so until she's dead and that's with no normal attacks at all.
>>721814584Throwing tools and clawlines. You can swat back their rocks but there's zero margin for error because they'll explode if they touch you. Really they mainly exist to kick the shit out of anyone dumb enough to try and go deep into that area early in act 1 instead of making a beeline for Far Fields to bypass Lace, and even then I'd argue even that route is more of a pain in the ass than Lace 1.
>>721803425>Best (area) musichttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dq8wGcWeXwghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkNbFtCd_DA
>>721814795That problem I'm having is that gauntlet that you can acces in Deep after you get the clawlineAt some point 2 of them spawn at the same timeand If I die, The runback has 1 of the fuckers in the way
>>721794167Wanderer has 1.34 attack speed, with that damage nerf it deals 108% base dps compared to normal, that's fucking terrible considering the short range. With half silk, you're at 67% base crest silk generation, which is fucking shitThese both kill the crest really hard, it already has a tool slot less so the base attack needs to stay good.0.5 stagger is the only good choice here. That and removing the crit are minor but noticable nerfs that don't kill it but reign it in.Hunter suggestion is ok.Beast with two extra blues would be ok, though I'd rather have it have a normal heal and a every x hit within 0.75s increases damage and attack speed up to 5 stacks or something, so it's not as reliant on the bind while also offering SOMETHING when platforming. I could live without blues if I got a normal heal and the letitripfacetank stuff on just hitting stuff good and fastReaper is a good suggestion.Witch/Architect and Shaman are all fine, except Shaman comes really late, and most people won't care about having 3 silk skill slots because lmao pale nails all day every dayIf Shaman was accessible like start act 2, where you have a parry and the storm and the needle and you have proper options that aren't just better than the competition, then it'd be way more fun to play.
>>721814876Bilewater track is better than both of these
>>721814883The gauntlet is actually better because it's an enclosed area where there's less room for them to dodge, so it's easier to get them with a quick silk skill or tool spam.
>>721811795Yeah sound design is supreme, same as the first game.
>>721814915Everyone suggesting rebalances for crests are always going way too overboard. If Wanderer only had a 0.8x damage, then the crits and speed of its attacks would still make up for it plenty. The big problem is that its current DPS makes it THE crest to use if you want to burst down enemies fast and quick.
>>721814949Cogwork Core is the 3rd best area theme in either Hollow Knight game, behind only City of Tears and Greenpath/Queen's Garden.
>>721815009I died so many times already I run out of fragments to craft tools, and roses to buy shard bundles
>>721815104That's a spicy take
>>721814915>With half silk, you're at 67% base crest silk generation, which is fucking shitThe half silk regen idea was mostly due to the fact that you will take less hits anyways due to the more parry frames per second. So you will need less heals per fight since you are safer. And to make it just a bit harder to proc the crit buff, which let's be real, 2% to crit is the least of the dps of the crest.
New bread>>721814704>>721814704>>721814704
>>721810760The abundance of 2 mask damage IS bullshit, but I kept Reaper's Crest on the entire game so I could avoid getting close to enemies.
>>721811380>if you abuse everything the game offers to its fullestThe human brain isn't good at maximizing and multitasking at the same time. People perform much better with a single tool than when they split their focus between multiple options.The more tools you try to utilize at the same time the less effectively you will be with them.
