>quite literally one of the most highly anticipated games of all time>mostly forgotten a month after release
>>722664720It's remembered by turd worlders.
>>722664720disgusting BUG-vania
>>722664824hot bug-vagina?
>>722664720Bro thats so last month. We dont play retro shit.
it was fucking trash. I'm currently trying to fix it with a increase player damage mod to fix the enemy sponginess. but it's taken the backseat to Showgunners already because that game isn't objective shit several hours in.
>mostly forgotten>still peaking at 160k players>still consistently trending in twitter and elsewhere>/v/ still cant shut up about itLmao
Not even close lil nigga. Countless hordes of hype-riding plebs have been collectively traumatised and stockholm syndromed into remembering this game with love and hate. It's a good game. If only the writing quality matched the art, movement, and music.
>>722664720There are currently 8 threads up about it, 2 of which have more than 300 replies
subversive game
Shazamsissies lost yet again
>>722664720The hype got out of control for a 2D metrovania
>>722665583Yes this is my first metroidvania and I'm only in the middle of act 2 with more than 50 hours played. I'm enjoying it though, very glad I fell for the hype.
>>722665649This entire line ruined everything about Hollow Knight for me. Look at her. Look at her succulent curves and tell me this wasn't specifically designed to elicit arousal. Tell me this isn't bait to make you desire used goods. Team Cherry is full of cucks. Every single one of those australian fucks played us for fools, making sure to design the sexiest creatures known to man, only to be met with the gut punch that they're used goods with gaping vaginas taking black cock every single day. I can't imagine the state of all Hornetfags out there who have actual standards, the hurt they must be feeling knowing their wife wasn't saving herself for them. The chinese review bombing wasn't enough. We need every possible language to review bomb these dirty fucks for taking away the purity of our bug wife. I will not be able to sleep until this justice has been undone. Make them patch it out. Make them listen to the fans for fucking once.
>>722665838This pasta is stale now
>>722665879The truth will never become stale
>>722664720yeah, I already beat it and talked about it with anons
>>722665583>If only the writing, music, and art quality matched the movement.ftfyThe writing of the main character's garbageThe OST doesn't hold a candle to HK ost.The world in HK was better detailed, with enemies that felt like they belonged to their respective areas. Silksong has 20 iterations of the same "Flying swordman with a chain attack"
>>722665879It's a trash, 2017 reddit tier attempt at a pasta. Obviously posted by the same retarded anon who spams the photo.
>>722665962>The OST doesn't hold a candle to HK ost.Is this ragebait? Cogwork core is very very good, I even saved it to my spotify playlist. That and a few more, the fiddle track too. The OST rocks.
>>722664720Is there any game that isnt forgotten a month after release? Online discourse is not genuine, as everything is being invaded by marketing campaigns.Also, zoomers hability to think is severly diminished, they consume and zoom fast to the next piece of content. They never take the time to properly understand or analyze anything and like every low IQ person out there, prodly declares the thing to be shit before taking a look into it as that is too taxing.A population base that experiences vidya by watching other people play cannot discuss anything in depth.
>>722664720Did anybody else play up to act 3 and really enjoy but then suddenly lose any and all desire to keep playing?
>>722665515All brazilians and chinks btw
I'm just glad you've moved on to shitposting about another game besides Elden Ring. I wonder which moderately challenging game you'll seethe about for years next?
>>722665649>>722665838cringe
Silksong is looking to be the most successful yuri game of 2025
I'm only in act 2
>>722666351There is zero yuri in silksong
>>722666131No, this always happens to pretty much every single-player game
>>722666087>RagebaitNot everyone who disagrees with you is ragebaiting Anon.Yes, Cogwork core was good, but what else? There's no City of tears, no Crystal Caves, no Dirthmouth, No Mantis Lords, and no Grimm.
>>722664720it's just not fun, I finished it more than a week ago and whenever I see threads in the catalog my only feeling is disdain.
>>722666351No.
>>722664720devs got fromdrone brainrot and drove the fanbase away
>>722665971It's obviously a samefag but, more importantly talking about it is what it wants.
>>722666480Choral Chambers and Bilewater are kind of goated. Also Trobbio's theme is fire
>>722666480Choral Chambers, Greymoor, Bilwater, Widow, Lace, High Halls
>>722664824OFFENSIVE
>>722664720What is it about this game that's had Nintendo fans crying and screaming and poop not stopping for months?
>>722666620Except the game sold ten trillion copies and is extremely popular and critically successful. The game being marginally harder than hollow knight is a good thing.
>>722665440>it was fucking trash>I'm currently trying to fix it with a increase player damage mod to fix the enemy sponginessSo you're extremely shit at a very basic game, to the point that you need to download easy-mode mods, and you're blaming the game for your lack of intelligence?
>>722666732>is a good thing.Why?
>>722666480I think the Citadel is my favorite area not just of either game but of any Metroidvannia.
>>722666697It's not easy babyshit made for 4 year olds like nintendo games
>>722666802Because hollow knight was too easy outside of the boss rush meme DLC and thus could be rather boring at parts even in a first play through.
>>722664720The game is played by 3rd worlder zoomzooms and has tedious speedrunner (code for transgender retard) difficulty. They forget easily.If you live in the first world and your time is worth something you play Nintendo
>>722666858Wow Nintendo are cucumbers insane. Literate retards
>>722664720Those who loved it will fondly remember it in the coming yearsThose who hated it will obsessively seethe over it daily
>>722664720Leftist game, if you don't like that game that means you are a racist.
>>722668263I'm a racist and I loved the game.
>>722668263>Play as a divine blooded princess who skips about in a nightie and nothing else running around killing shit for fun and restoring a dead religion and the local economy out of boredom while journaling about how cute things are cute and how genocide is goodThe main plot is that Hornet shows up to end a matriarchy that was so brutal and evil that it literally poisoned the land and then goes out of her way not to replace it with herself (because she thinks she wouldn't be a good ruler). How, exactly, is it leftist?
>>722665440when did you fags became such casual holy shit, why are you even here
>>722665440Bait designed to farm gameplay clips
>>722666207But enough about your relatives and family
>>722664720>quite literally one of the most highly anticipated games of all timeIn what crazy bubble have you been living? I'd see/hear people talking about it at most once or twice a year.
>>722664720>forgotten>still 5 threads about it right now
>>722669306Fuming tranny moment.
>>722669961But enough about your mood swings.
>>722669961>71.7MThat's insane if true. Even if we factor in the minuscule production cost that's still insane amount for all 3 devs.
>>722670332>dilating huemonkey still going
>>722670389Much of this will be eaten by the distributors and government. But yes, they are all truly rich.
>>722668821All leftist influencers/channels i know are praising that game like it was the best thing ever seen.Also Leftist love medieval things where kings rule the world. They love Lord of the rings for example, where people live separate in their own parts of the world and the reality of "races" exists.
>>722665838sexo
>>722670917>Leftists love kingsno they don't
>>722670917>All leftist influencers/channels i know are praising that game like it was the best thing ever seen.Because it's a good video game. They also praised elden ring despite that game also being a chud simulator
>>722669961Isn't china the first or second largest audience for games now. the stats probably similar for all single player games beside brazil showing up
>>722664720I got a refund today.Didn't really like the game :/
>>722671131Did it beat your ass a lil anon :(
>>722671046It's extra funny because Silksong goes out of its way to have Hornet dislike the Pale King for something that gets proven objectively wrong in the true ending of her own game
>>722670541>but enough about your hobbies
>>722671217No. I just didn't have fun playing it.
>>722671310Yeah you got your ass beat
>>722670670>distributorsThey're indie, there's none of that>governmentHow bad is income tax in Aussieland?
>>722664720shillslog was bad, all that development time for nothing
>>722673518Steam takes 25-30% of sales.
>>722673676Pretty sure that's already calculated though, because the pic says 4.4M sales. Which multiplied by 20 bucks is actually 88M not 71MThat said 30% or 88 is around 24M so the actual profit is 62M, give or take.
>>722674097And then the 'strayan government takes
>>722671046how do these people feel about both games being caused by a giant woman moment?
>>722668263>>722668821>>722670917Why are you like this?
>>722665440>I'm currently trying to fix it with a increase player damage mod to fix the enemy sponginessIt's called upgrading your nail.
>>722671046>i dont think establishing public transportation is a good trade off for suppressing the indigenous religion of a land so that they all will worship you insteadThey are fucking retarded lmfao.
>>722671046>same ppl baseding about the abortion quest are mad at the pale king for killing his unborn children
>No you dont get shards or rosaries in arenas because you just dont ok>No we will not make the EYRA when fast traveling not ear rape you >Yes the fast traveling needs to be 2 different menus where you have to get off in bellway every time>Yes there needs to be 3 different maggot swamps >Yes all the yellow trinklets need to be useless and the extra slots you get need to be yellow too>No we will not show the NPC's on the map but you can buy 5 different useless pins>Yes everything must cost 10000 rosaries so that you will farm trash every time you want to buy something>Yes the spool doesnt charge when hitting non silk enemies so the upgrades you spent the entire game collecting is pretty much useless>Yes stunned bosses must do 2 shields when they are lying on the ground dazed
>>722676743>Yes all the yellow trinklets need to be useless and the extra slots you get need to be yellow tooThis nigga never found THE DICE
>>722676840I did and it is actually good
>>7226692913 seconds to kill a large enemy? TEDIOUS!
>>722677408Being fair, this is with a fully upgraded nail and charged level 2 hunter crest. When you first encounter them they take like 10 hits to kill. But also you can just pogo over them and sprint past if you don't want to deal with them
>>722677565They still die pretty fast with a mid level needle if you just stay aggressive like in the webm. Might take 5 seconds though.
>>722664720The only reason this game got popular is because it has cutesy bugs when we all know bugs are all ugly as fuck no matter how cute you'd try to make them. The whole idea of silksong/hollow knight is cliche. Anyone can think of a side scroller game with tough boss fights and silly characters with cute voices.Also, this game has no reason to be a hard game. It's not fun when the only result is you coming back to the same bossfights just to die over and over and over again.
>>722671046Atheism and JRPGs have made some people unable to even comprehend the concept of a God who is not evil.
lol the true is silk song sucks ass.worste hype game ever !
>>722664720I’ll remember it. This board hated and continues to hate the first game anyway.
>>722664720>single-player game is single-player>zoomoid melts down
>>722665702Have they ever gotten a win?
Supporting HK and SS means you support trans rights!
>>722666620>shazamtranny posts it again
Which one are you?
>>722679094filtered
>>722664720Actually it seems it actively hates fun, and people isn't pointing out the real flaws of the game design>Play Hunter crest>It's very short ranged and diagonal pogo jumping is awkward as fuck>Play Reaper>Feels fine although basic and bland, it is slow but akin to HK1>Play Beast>The fuck is this no>Could try it sometime, but instead of being DMC kind of switching styles on the go it has to be done in a bench, reducing FUN and freedom>The game introduces item weapons>But they are ammo based>Not fun like Castlevania heart ammo, more like the scarce kind of ammo>Ammo that also has low charges>Those charges are costly to make and can only be done at sitting on the bench, reducing the FUN and freedom factor>Currency is valuable and necessary to progress in the game>Make it grindy and unobtainable>You lose it everytime you die>Enemies are very tanky and also dodge your attacks, incentivizing using several movements to take them out>But because of the ammo system you shouldn't>Thus decentivizing fighting>Thus making grinding also boring>Give Hornet 5 units of health>Every enemy in the game deals 2 per hit>Practically you can only get hit 3 times and you're dead>Effectively sometimes 1, because the game has no I-frames and sometimes you get one shot>A Metroidvania that should reward exploration>You cannot explore at your whim because the enemies are hostile, but the systems around the game are even more and feel like choresAnd characters aren't ascharming as the first one. Didn't thought it was real but every NPC is a bland stoic bossgirl. They're just not cute or varied.
>>722680709only the OG Shazamposter won, the rest have all been shitty copycats who are never right
>>722666732So did MH wilds, DS2 and Borderlands 3. Just because a turd attached to a popular Ip doesnt mean its not a terrible game. Silksong is the DS2/F&H2 of Hollow Knight.
>>722664720But enough about deltratroon
>>722664720>actual child never heard of Duke nukemPlease shut up. Just shut up.
>>722664720I was afraid to accept it but it's not as good as the first, it's just not that engaging
>>722681638>F&H2But it was better than the first one.Silksong is too, though
>>722664720It was artificial hype because it took so long to release that it became a meme that people spammed in the chat of every developer presentation for the last seven years. If it released on schedule back in 2019 then no one would have given a shit and far fewer people would have ever heard of it.
>>722681389Is shillsong worth 20 eurobucks?
Less than a month after playing this game i have serious issues remembering any of the early levels. All of them blend into a generic soulless asset soup with no interesting landmarks or situations.
>>722664720Waiting for proper randomiser mod like the first one has.
>>722664720Destined to be forgotten like Tomba and Smash TV and 10,000 other titles.
>>722684994It'll take a while to match how feature complete the HK Randomizer is.
>>722664720There are threads about it daily.
>>722685317That's okay, by then the game will have got its balance/bug fix/content add patches, too.
The Green Prince is a grasshopper, right?I've heard some people say he's supposed to be a mantis, but he looks nothing like the ones in HK
>>722665440>Player damage modGod damn you must really fucking suck at games
>>722664720Good game, but way too long.
>>722665649The picture that killed a video game
>>722664720I got bored halfway through act2 and dropped the game.
>>722665649>game is a hate letter to the fans
>>722664720>Harman Smith was right again
>>722666351More successful than Fire Emblem Shadows?
>>722665649Never stop posting this.
It doubled down on worst aspects of HK, which had alot of annoying shit in it on itself. Normies rightfully hated it, masochistic cult on /v/ tried to blame ot on "git gud" and "but its suppose to be that way". Deep down both parties knew, that the shit was wack
>>722669193/v/ constantly has multiple gachashit generals up at all times. Occasionally the creatures that frequent these threads try to play actual games that are popular (because they're FOMO addled retards) and are mindbroken by any gameplay more complex than 'press X do to flashy cutscene bullshit and win'.
Silksong is gonna make /v/ seethe for another decade just like HK did, huh?
>>722664720It took the elden slop route, what did you expect?
>>722676650It's not even an actual metaphor for abortion, it's just a cool fantasy take on how bug parasitism happens in real life.
>>722666207But I thought chinks hated this game?
>>722676840>one good yellow toolOkay, now what do I do with the other two yellow slots?
>playing HK first time after silksong>just got hunters pride and combined it with long clawHOLY FUCK this mega range is sick as hell, wish you couldve done this in SS
Help, I'm out of bounds.
>>722695729compass and magnet obviously.
>>722695729Just use compass, the dice and the magnetite necklace.
>>722667226>what's this? a bench? I should use this so I don't get sent back to the start of the area>*clunk*
>>722667226>Retards from the dark souls community are the only ones defending SIlksongHas it really gotten that bad? Even Fromsoft moved away from their old designs and lets players warn each other of danger, got rid of runbacks, allows players to call for help if the boss is hard, etc.Silksong just feels like a Dark Souls game made 20 years ago. It's more boring and obnoxious than hard and fun.
>nu-soulsfags when they have to carefully play out the game and perform under higher risk instead of bashing their heads 30 times to a bossfuck off
>>722690884Not all of /v/. Some people want to gloat about not having fun where you did and they want to know how superior they are as far as x hobby/interest is concerned. More likely if they dont have much going on besides that
>>722697020>an action game with zero iframe rolling comes out>filters self proclaimed gaymersLmao
>>722665962>>722666480Choral Chambers and Lost Verdania are both better than every Hollow Knight track. Mt Fay, Bilewater, Moss Grotto, Cogwork Core, Lace, Phantom, Last Dive, Enter Pharloom, Shellwood and Awakening are all better than ALL the tracks you mentioned. The only HK tracks that are better than the aforementioned lot are Queen's Gardens and White Palace.You're musically clueless, the type of person who needs nostalgia to recognize quality music and who doesn't appreciate Silksong's soundtrack yet simply because you haven't imprinted it enough on your brain yet. Most people are like that, only a minority can instantly recognize great music for what it is on a first listen.
>I HATE THE CRADLE GAUNTLETS>I HATE THE CRADLE GAUNTLETS>I HATE THE CRADLE GAUNTLETS>I HATE THE CRADLE GAUNTLETS>I HATE THE CRADLE GAUNTLETS>I HATE THE CRADLE GAUNTLETSwhats even up there? i got filtered for now since i was getting angry. if there isnt a cool as fuck item and its just some "memento" or "lore", THEN I DONT FUCKING WANT IT
>>722698323What cradle gauntlets, you mean the relatively simple platforming challenge at the top?
>>722698475yes, whats past the centipedes, the clawshot then second jump platforms, the flying dudes that go back and forth. is it anything cool?
>>722698886the part after the flying dudes is the last one, so you were almost there
>>722698886Yes, but you may as well put it off for later since a quest leads you there. And said quest gets you a secret ending.
>>722699989PAH secret ending. i just want items, sex bugs and cool environments with fun bosses. im going back to verdania.
>>722700251There's items there as well, and a unique location.
>>722700251There is one item but it's not readily visible and you have to do something for it to appear
>>722700251its not a secret ending its just an unrelated cutscene attached to the normal ending
>>722664720>dlc to a mediocre metroidvania was disappointing wow crazy
>>722664720It was good but it's been 8 years since HK. There a lot of good indie Metroidvanias now, and SS doesn't feel like a huge innovation, it's just more HK. The game is big but I still don't understand why it took 7 years, it feels like TC should have released SS 2.5 years after Godmaster, and by now they should have released their next leap forward. I can't help but think they really wasted their time on intricate details that barely matter, and now who the fuck knows when their next game is gonna come out.
>>722688178His mate is a locust, so yeah he's a grasshopperAND A FAG!
>>722669291>killing a mid-game enemy is easy when you have every end-game upgradewhoah no shit
Is it really that much harder than the first game? Some of the later platforming in the first one was not enjoyable for me
>>722681389Thank you. You articulated most of my complaints very concisely.
>>722665440This game has literally two enemies: grounded shit that you hit once move back repeat until dead, and flying bullet sponge shit that throws stuff and constantly floats away from you. Literally nothing of value is lost if you just make everything die a bit faster.
>>722702139it is much harder, if you have any trouble with hollow knight youll be bashing your head against a wall in silksong
Which one you picking?
>>722666480Blasted Steps is cool, and Underworks is fittingly dour and oppressive
>>722702353Actually, there's also stupid fatass that charges left to right and maybe tries to butt crush you but he's rarer. This game has 2.5 enemies.
>>722664720can you at least post five over-hyped modern games that are still regularly discussed today?
>>722665838You're doing god's work.
>>722702683Wanderer then never tried any others
>>722700527>>722700437>>722699680fuck you guys, theres nothing up here but a shitty memento and some retard bugs free of silk. no sexo bugs and no cool ass items. the one house is cool i guess.
>>722702683hunter and then never tried any others for more than than was necessary to reach a bench and swap
>>722702139There's one optional platforming segment that's pretty tough but otherwise there's nothing as bad as the White Palace (and I don't mean the Path of Pain)
>>722665649Why is this posted like it's bad?
>>722706867when people cant get sex, they lash out and make anything that's remotely related to sex a bad thing. essentially sour grapes. dont pay too much mind to it.
>>722666351These two? Members of Sherma's harem.
Have you made an OC yet, /v/?
>>722707465yeah, as the royal consort to the hornet queen. taking after a shota but in bug form.
>>722707465depressing greymoor drip
perhaps it's too early to ask, but how long do you think we'll have to wait for dlc?
>>7227095572 weeks to 2 years
>>722707465Quit staring at me with those big ol' eyes!
>>722709557it was like 8 months for all hk dlc. but I think they mentioned wanting to make silksong dlc way larger
>>722709907
>>722679635SAAR DON'T REDEEMBILEWATER SUPERPOWER 2020
>>722696304The thing is that older Souls games weren't that mechanically demanding. They rewarded patience and caution, they punished rushing in blindly. As Souls games became more mechanically demanding, they reduced and eventually just outright eliminated runbacks, making every boss purely about overcoming that fight.Silksong both is much more mechanically demanding than Hollow Knight and seems to really enjoy teasing the player with runbacks on top of it.
