Is it woke?
>>
It's a video game
>>
>>724241951
It's 20 dollary doos
>>
>>724241951
In only the barest minimal sense. It doesn't try to force liberal values, but it does have gays that they put in positions specifically to make you feel sorry for. So basically the same as the first game.
>>
>>724242187
They are sibling-lovers and you get to kill them
>>
Most of the strong or important NPCs are women.
>>
>>724241951
100%

BADASS LADIES ARE BADASS everywhere, tries to make you feel bad about some enormous faggot bug and the only heroic male character dies a pathetic pointless death at the hands of the female protagonist
>>
>>724242313
That's because weavers are female-only race
>>
>>724242549
Throbbio still lives
>>
>>724241951
You kill the green prince just for being a faggot, so I'm inclined to say no.
>>
>>724241951
Don't be retarded
>>
>>724242187
Who are t3h gayz besides the green mantis faggot who you brutally execute like ISIS for being a gay homo.
>>
>>724243705
trobbio is a homo
>>
>>724244550
Where is it ever stated that Trobbio is a homo? Does he even have any dialogue? Can you play the needolin and he goes on and on about how much he loves deepthroating black dicks or what?
>>
>>724244501
>>
>>724241951
Yes, just like every other game.
In fact, you should just stop playing video games in general since it's all woke
>"But [game] i like isn't wo..."
Yes it is, you have just convinced yourself otherwise. Stop gaming
>>
>>724244550
Throbbio is a throbbiosexual
>>
>>724242549
Ballow doesn't die.
Sherma lives.
The pinmaster is fine.
And Garmond's end was hardly pathetic. It was just sad.
>>
>>724244620
You think people in the 80s made sure someone was gay before making fun of them for being a flaming faggot?
This game is woke, /v/ is just desperately trying to pretend it is not.
>>
>Game has pro feminist values
>Final boss is literally "Grand Mother"
>90% of the bosses you fight are females
>The other 10% are either gay men or robots built by females
>Hornet is a canon slut
>The few male NPCs that aren't bosses creep on Hornet every chance they get
I don't see how you could play this game and not see the woke bullshit in it.
>>
>>724249257
>Ballow doesn't die.
nobody wageslave
>Sherma lives.
harmless blob to be protected by le badass woman
>The pinmaster is fine.
? that's another woman
>And Garmond's end was hardly pathetic. It was just sad.
it was pathetic, he dies in bumfuck nowhere without even accomplishing anything, at least in hk cloth died a warrior death after spending the entire game being a coward, it felt satisfying
>>

why are you retards still replying?

WE MUST BE BETTER BUGS

You're thinking of the pinstress. Not the guy who upgrades your needles.
>>
>>724250383
yeah I figured it out too late, my bad

still doesn't change my initial point about garmond being the only heroic male character (literal knight protecting what's left of civilization) and he dies like that
>>
>>724249580
Don't even bother these people aren't conservatives....they're leftard apologists
Just tell them Trump won and mock the game's shitty steam chart performance
Facts don't care about feelings, never ever let them forget that
>>
>>724241951
Who cares? Is a tiny 50 hours game made by the small and poor indie studio that sold 15m copies and cost $20, just buy it.
>>
>>724242313
It's almost as if they're based on......bugs. Fucking retard lmao.

I'M GOING TO KILL MYSELF BECAUSE OF THE HIGH HALLS HOLY FUCK FUCK THIS SHIT WHY I'M DOING IT WITH 6 MASKS

FUCK THE MAESTROS SO FUCKING MUCH, WHY THEY SEND THEIR COGFLIES ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE THEY'RE LOOKING AT

HOLY SHIT I'M SICK OF ALL THOSE FLYINGS PIECE OF SHIT
>>
>>724251638
OLARE
>>
>>724241951
What can be woke in a game about bugs?
Beside Silksong is racist as FUCK in that game so I doubt it's woke
>>
>>724251638
This is hardest part in the game, after that things get easier.
Karmelita and Lost Lace are hard too but high hauls is worse.
>>
>>724242187
I don't recall HK having any gays.
>>
>>724252032
I'm trying the 5 hours achievement and the high halls alone took me 45 min alone before i've abused save state

i don't care about cheating, this piece of shit gauntlet is unbalanced af and i rather have an army of grand reed against my ass because atleast they let you breath between 2 moves and give an obvious opening for a cross stitch attack

call it all skill issue as you want, i fucking hate that this gauntlet is 60% of flying ennemies who input read your shit or just spam parries
>>
>>724252032
>Karmelita and Lost Lace are hard too but high hauls is worse.
there's no way in hell this is true

I legitimately don't understand how people struggle so much on high halls
>>
>>724250586
>$20 for a flash game is CHEAP actually
>>
>>724249580
Is there more than just the flea hot springs guy that creeps on Hornet?
>>
>>724252032
High Halls is a fucking joke. Did we play the same game?

alright i've just did high halls took me 5 hours of grind. i've suffered because pic related is my build with 6 mask only.

The main issue with high halls is that it's the longuest gauntlet in the game with ton of ennemies who fly+parry+read input to go away and unlike a boss, you can control the ennemies to do whatever they want

sometime the bell niggers will snipe you JUST RIGHT, sometimes the maestros will throw their cogflies in the wrong direction where they're looking and now add 2 tanks you never saw before in a closed room where players are already tired and you can understand the frustation
>>
>>724253689
high halls would be balanced if instead of putting 2 bigger tank in the citadel just putting 2 grand reeds

this is litteraly how i eat them after the high halls gauntlet
>>
>>724253071
There's an old lady who tries and also the snail with the journal
>>
>>724253689
High Halls is one of the last things you do before fighting GMS. You should have 8 masks and all lockets and 3 pin upgrades by then.
>>
>>724254097
no time i have 1 hour left on my game to reach the 5 hour mark
>>
>>724252747
>>724253689
High Halls itself is fast if you just speed past everything instead of trying to fight. The gauntlet itself is much easier if you detour to kill the silk vampires and duel Garmond, and you have plenty of time to do both even on the 5 hour run.
>>
>>724252604
It's implied that Sheo and the Nailsmith are gay if you spare the latter.
>>
>>724253689
>The main issue with high halls is that it's the longuest gauntlet in the game
uh oh... oh no... uh oh...
>>
>>724254681
Technically Coral Tower is 4 gauntlets.
>>
>>724253689
Bro what the fuck are you doing with that build. 5 hours isn't "do the bare minimum and speedrun to the end" time, it's "plan your route for a few minor detours to pick up upgrades that will make things easier" time. You have enough time, trust me. There's no way you should only have 1 memory locket.
>>
>>724241951
Don't know, I never played the game. I just unlocked all the achievements and played arc raiders.
>>
>>724241951
It's a good game. Of course its woke.

>>

same
it was tricky, sure, but it wasn't a stand-out difficult section. i found the first hunter's march gauntlet far harder, and that one had a 2min runback.

First gauntlet I ran into was the craw lake one and that one was completely fucked too, worst part is that you can't leave it.
>>
>>724253689
>using tools
you did not beat the game
>>
>>724252032
I first tried the high halls. But I had Shakra to help.
I'm rather confident I would have first tried anyway though. Enemy gauntlets are fun.
>>
>CHURCH BAD!!!
Yes it's woke
>>
>>724241951
it's very clearly designed for the peak DEIvershitty audience that would have been commonplace from 2019-2023
really a shame that I could have looked past all the AIDS if it was actually a well designed game. which it absolutely is not.
inb4 filtered. played into Act 2. the pacing/rewards to spur interest in exploration are atrocious

>Shakra to help
Help is an understatement, Shakra will solo it so quickly that you barely need to lift a finger. She blows up each wave comically fast even if you deliberately do nothing.

>>724252891
Depends on your resources going in.
You can realistically be 5 masks, 1 needle upgrade, only shitty blue/red options in which case your clawline juggling needs to be perfect.
You can also be 9 masks, 3 needle upgrades, any of the busted red tool options, ghost enemies deleted, double jump, and have garmond/shakra helping.
The gauntlet experience is a very variable one.

My first playthrough as wanderer for speedrun cheevo. How did you guys play with this? The pincer range annoyed me, and fact that this thing isn't as girthy as hunter is a major downgrade, running attack is wacky, constantly ass fucked by flyers until clawline and the worst sin of them all, Its playstyle is kinda boring for me . I switched to +0 hunter for high hall and never looked at it again.
>>
>>724262031
clashing every hitbox like a boss to avoid damage. who needs a parry?
definitely need clawline though
>>
>>724262031
I found Wanderer to just be the most nimble overall once I got used to the low attack range. I'm about to force myself to finish a Hunter-only run and I still can't get used to the pogo.

Attack always resets on a clash, I think. but you're right. It's probably more natural to pull that off with wanderer
>>
>>724265284
>reaper crest in act 3
why? it such a slow crest
>>
i don't care i've cheated by resetting for high halls
i never liked speedrunning
>>
Daily brown people seething about silksong thread.
>>
>>724266460
that's a way higher % for that achievement than I would have thought. that pretty much requires multiple playthroughs of the game
>>
>>724241951
>woke
only braindead people use that term
>>
>>724266914
desu it's only become really hard as the mist/act 2 since it's not designed with you rushing the game
>>
>>724267060
you don't even need to go through the mist though right?
>>
>>724266914
It's a very generous window as long as you know that going through Phantom is faster than going through Last Judge.
>>
>>724267235
I'm assuming act 3 is not required for that achievement
>>
>>724267453
Correct, beating act 2 on either route counts as an ending for both the 5 hour and steel soul achievements. It's only the 100% ones that require act 3.
>>
>>724262031
Never had any trouble hitting fliers. Literally just dash under then jump up and smack 'em a couple a times.
>>
>>724267235
How the fuck do you get from Phantom to the citadel?
>>
>>724267838
There's an elevator, anon.
>>
>>724267838
Have you literally never beaten Phantom before? There's an elevator literally right next to the boss room that takes you to the Citadel bellway. It's one of three ways you can trigger act 2.
>>
>>724268078
Of course I killed phantom but somehow never noticed the elevator. Go fucking figure.
How else can you trigger act 2 besides the normal way through blasted lands and grand gate?
>>
>>724268295
you can get captured by the big fly niggas with cages and sent to the slab
>>
>>724241951
It's about insects, you can't project human morals onto them. Watch a nature documentary and see what kind of shit bugs get up to.
>>
>>724268295
>How else can you trigger act 2 besides the normal way through blasted lands and grand gate?
Cocoon jumps to get double jump without the clawline after you're captured in the Slab, then go up through Wisp Thicket. Basically a self-imposed challenge for shits and giggles.
>>
>>724268403
That sounds extremely tedious. Is there a video of someone doing it?
>>
>>724268959
Double jump https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BC9LS9KuCJo
Wisp Thicket https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3L_f9l7GXc
It is tedious since it requires a lot of intentional deaths to set up the cocoons, like I said it's a self-imposed challenge. You can also beat Groal and First Sinner in act 1 this way if you want.
>>
>>724241951
She's a whore and a dyke, and you will play as such in the game
>>
>>724266310
>why?
because I like it.
>>
>>724241951
It's a 90% female power-fantasy about toppling religion and helping the gays, take a wild guess. The fact you had to ask just because it was 'tamer' than AAA examples bluntly dicksmacking you with correctness shows just how bad it's gotten.
>>
>>724269592
Tranny headcanon.
>>
>>724260112
Agreed, it has a degree of DEI pandering that was missing in 2017 and probably would have served it very well if they'd released in 2021.

But, it's not obnoxious. Pharloom is a matriarchy - Grandmother Silk and all the weavers are female. The whole idea was that it was a Hornet game, so female protag. Shakra is fine, she's the autistic girl buddy for Hornet. That doesn't leave a ton of room for male characters outside of bosses, which are a good mix.
Beyond that, there's gay representation... possibly incestuous, and they die, and its optional (you can leave green boy in a cell, Lost Verdania doesn't actually contain anything particularly worthwhile, though it's cool)

Feels like they hired a DEI consultant (a real one, not Saccharine Infant) that advised them on the boxes that would need to be checked, and they checked the boxes while going out of their way to not be intrusive about it.
