SHAW!
Not playing games with a whore for a protagonist
Shi-Shi-Shaw!
>>741219550???
>>741220138There is a line of dialogue where hornet talks about her extreme long lifespan and how shed outlive most mates. For some reason schizos take it as getting cucked or something as if they actually had a chance with a fictional character
>>741219203WHERE"S THE FUICKING DLC WHORENET
>>741220286Women see fictional women as competition, the bar has always been this low.
>>741219203>already forgottenThis is what happens when devs get too up their own ass when making a sequel. All of the unnecessary changes this game made just makes it worse than the original.
>>741219564WINGO!
>>741219203Achieving the most feminine-looking character in recent history, and it’s a bloody stick figure.
>>741220286Why do western games always feel the need to announce to the player that the character is not a virgin? Why are they so obsessed with subverting the player's expectations?
>>741220286>women being sluts is LE GOOD!!!!Post nose
>>741220747The character is a fucking stick figure, the fuck kind of expectations did you have??
>>741219203midsong
>>741220861That's just gaslighting. The developers were always aware that people liked the character. Stop pretending this is news to you.
>>741220791She looks like she fucks fancy pants men.
>>741219203Cute
>>741220791I could match her lifespan and then some... she should hit me up...
>>741221097Nothing in hollow knight gave any indication that Hornet was some virginal princess.
>>741220286'mate' is aussie for 'friend,' xittertard-kun
>>741220747>subverting the player's expectations?Why the fuck were you expecting her to be a virgin, retard? That's not the norm, that's the opposite of the norm. No video-game protagonist is a virgin, unless they're a child or a paladin who have taken a vow of chastity or some shit. Do you think Mario is a virgin?
>>741221358obviously not, he lays pipe
>>741221336Hornet wouldn't adopt an Australian dialect for a single sentence, anon. She clearly meant mate as in romantic/sexual partner. You're reaching.
>>741220747Free advertisement on incel sites like 4chan.
>>741221250>>741221358(She literally is a princess tho.) Her partners have absolutely no story significance. They did it purely to spite the player. It would have taken the same amount of effort to not write that line. They intentionally made her less attractive by that. It's the same thing when AAA games uglify their characters just to """virtue""" signal. They made a choice that actively made the experience worse for the consumer for no reason.
>>741221770What, you think royalty didn't sleep around? You're retarded. Kings literally surrounded their wives and daughters with eunuch guards so they couldn't knock her up with illegitimate heirs. That's how common sleeping around was among royalty. Royals are decadent
>>741221250The first game portrayed her as a cold, dutiful protector of Hallownest's ruins with very little in the way of sentimentality or earthly desires. We also learn that she was associated with the very insular Weaver tribe through her mother. But come Silksong Hornet's characterisation is suddenly altered, and flavour text describes her as an insatiable nymphomaniac hyper-slut who fucks everything that moves. There would be nothing inherently wrong with this if it played into the game mechanics and her in-game dialogue, so you could participate in sexual minigames with other bugs -- but there isn't. This throwaway journal entry radically changes your perception of Hornet's integrity, and ruins her mystique as a consequence.
>>741221159> AH ONLY GOT 24 HOURS TO LIVE AND I AIN’T WASTING IT HERE
>>741221770She is a princess but nothing about her characterization in hollow knight indicates that she's some chaste virgin.
>>741221940Realism is irrelevant. They should have went with the choice that's more fun for the player instead of what they consider more realistic. Especially in a game with magic talking bugs.
>>741221964You haven't even played silksong
>>741222090See>>741222118
>>741221940No kings.
>>741222118Most people don't care about Hornets sex life in the first place
>>741222251Then why go with the option thats worse for people who do care? Huh? It's always like this.
>>741222162Keep telling yourself that cucky.Again, there's nothing inherently wrong with Hornet being a slut. But Silksong didn't demonstrate enough of that side of her to justify the journal entry. There should've been a gangbang scene at the beginning when she was captured by the Citadel bugs, or after getting caught by the fly jailers.
>>741222306Let's go eat, huh?
>>741222306Because portraying Hornets long life as a tragic fate due to her outliving the people (bugs) she has loved is more interesting characterization than some retarded "she's an immortal virgin waiting for her one true love" nonsense
>>741222406There is wrong shut the fuvck up. You are disgusting. They shouldhave just not write that line.
>>741222406Nigga Silksong isn't a h-game.
>>741221615Aussies wrote it. Youre reading what you want to read
>>741221770>Journal entry for a paired couple boss>Hornet thinks on their bond a laments her strange existence robbing her of being able to share this bond with another for lifeIt's really a reach in this case. Also it's established lore that many of the bugs have strange or peverse life cyclea and relationships by our standards, remember the grub father?
Half of v feels ai generated right now. Retardes non sequitur threads just popped up in the last hour
>>741222531Plenty of games have debased or unrelatable protagonists my man. Silksong's writers had two options here>1Not add the journal entry, preserving Hornet's existing characterisation>2Play up her sluttyness to befit the entry, by allowing her to fuck other bugs for benefits (e.g. merchandise and upgrade discounts at Bellhart), or just for fun. >>741222586Adding sex scenes doesn't make it a "h-game", so long as the majority of the game's content is still pure metroidvania action. These scenes would just bolster existing flavour text, and make it visually apparent that the writer's really care about the "small details".
>>741221964>Game where a character is a side character does not give you many details on their background so they're mysterious >Game where they are the protagonist gives you more details that you weren't privy to, so they're less mysteriousNOOO HOLY SHIT MYSTIQUE RUINED AHHHHH>There would be nothing inherently wrong with this if it played into the game mechanics and her in-game dialogue, so you could participate in sexual minigamesMadonna-Whore complex - the post
>>741222507>she's an immortal virgin waiting for her one true loveI didn't say that. They could have just left it up for interpretation. It's not much of a characterization when it's hidden in a bestiary entry.>>741222935You are undirminging my point. Go away.
>>741222712The use case of "mate" as in "sexual partner" isn't uncommon or non-standard in Australia. I say this because I'm Australian, and I know this. All of Hornet's dialogue is written in formal English. It makes 0 sense that Hornet would use "mate" as in "friend" in these cases, particularly with reference to the conchflies, who are clearly sexual partners.Again, this is a reach.
>>741220819She's immortal and all we know is she's been with at least 2 partners. No proof she's a slut.
If Silksong was a "you lose a fight, you get raped" type of h-game it would be better
ffs just write a fanfic where you are her first partner and she thought about you after your death, for 100 years at least.
>>741222959Yeah, but there's a such thing as too much information, especially if it conflicts with a character's previous characterisation. It causes a sort of narrative dissonance that worms its way into every in-game interaction. Look at how scornfully Hornet rejects Kratt, for example. The Hunter's Journal entry makes it blatantly obvious that this is out of character for her, and she should've been jumping his bones.Serial monogamy is basically just slow-burn promiscuity with more social acceptance, but it's still inherently slutty. I need to reiterate that there's nothing wrong with characters being defined by this, so long as the game constantly acknowledges it. Sluts cannot hide their craving for cock in reality.>>741223068I don't give a fuck about your point. I'm making my own.
She doesn't shaw in silksong
>>741223260NOOO I DONT WANT THAT
>>741223252raped and impregnated *
>>741219203She doesn't say that now. The devs got tired of the meme, and you should respect their wishes and drop it too.
>>741223345Yeah that's the worst part of the game. I mean.... fucking why? Did they forget?
>>741223535But I still find it funny. And my opinion is all that matters
Is she then too jaded to wear cute underwear?
>>741223343You are beyond help.
>>741220791>this will sell our game
>>741222507>Iteresting characterization than some retarded "she's an immortal virgin waiting for her one true love" nonsenseThat's way more interesting than just her fucking around tho
>>741223761No, lol, only a fucked up incel would think of it. Thank god this game will survive the test of time and you will be forgotten one day after your death.
>>741223761There is zero evidence of her sleeping around
>throwaway line will have incels ragingwhat a weird species
>>741220791Whorish behavior
>>741222586It definitely is. It's even got a rape and optional abortion sidequest
>>741220791Where did that apple meme go?
The flavor text doesn't even actually say she actually hooked up, you are all arguing over nothing
>>741221097There is a massive difference between liking a character and having some insane headcanon about her being a perfect virgin Princess for you and you alone to marry.
>>741223756And it did. Not even mad at the blatant imitators, if it means kickstarting a new genre of waifu. Have my eye on Little Mage, even if it isn’t waifu.
>>741221770>They did it purely to spite the player.Jesus, you can't be this dense.The entire theme of the game is motherhood, something Hornet can never experience. Pay attention next time.You're just as gormless as those vacuous faggots who think Hornet + Lace is a romantic pairing and not a mother + adopted daughter pairing.
>>741220747Being virgin as an adult is extremely abnormal in west. Every normal person presumes that a fictional adult female characters have had sex by default.
Bro is pushing 40 crying over bug sex
>>741224101>waifuit's a black and white stick with a red dress
We all know whos the real beauty of Pharloom.
>>741222118The chaste, monogamous lives of bugs? Do you even read what you write? You're a ridiculous person.
>>741224002Precisely, the focus is on the fact that she cannot have a bond + child like the conchflies did. This is similar to Grand Mother Silk who could not have real children of her own despite desperately wanting some, and kept using artificial means to try and create them.That is why the entry exists.I swear you guys are fucking retards. Read a fucking book.
>>741223949I wish that there was an outright explicit porn mod for the game
>>741220791She did it on purpose, slut
>>741223535>>741223547I'm glad they didn't include itThere's nothing worse than when devs change their vision for fans, when it was the original unmolested media that got it those fans in the first place. This is a natural consequence of how fans are now the ones making the games of course. Just look at Baldur's Gate - 3 is pornographic compared to 2, with characters whose sexuality changes to suit the player. In 2, they were full fledged personalities and were not going to love you if you weren't their type. In 3, made by coomers who jerked it to 2, they're all wish fulfillment fuckdolls. The inmates are running the asylum now. I realize that is an extreme example compared to this, but basically devs need to have more respect for themselves instead of wasting their time incorporating fandom memes and jokes, as if they're trying to make friends with the consoomers who have never created anything in their lives.
>>741224323>>741224153>>741224143>>741224065Cucks, and rape fetishits need not reply.Virgin chads always win. Everyone else can enjoy their divorce and and unfaithful partners. Statistics don't lie. No matter how many media propaganda you consume.
>>741224194I'm almost positive it's just some autist discord raider pretending to care about this because he's absolutely desperate for some "controversy" to derail every silksong thread with, even if he has to manufacturer one himself.
>>741224570
>>741224570You will die alone. You will pass the remaining of your life alone arguing with faceless people on the internet, getting angry and envious. Your opinion and your life doesn't matter.
Read through this thread and tell me incels don't deserve to be beheaded for being schizophrenic retards
>>741224680Hornet got molested by ugly smelly flies...
>>741224670Uh oh cucky is seething
Game should've ended at the end of Act 2.
>>741224916>give me less
Hornet is a knight-princess built for deafeat into rape. Of course she's a whore, you're supposed to fuck her and move on.
>>741224916i disagreei like act 3 narratively, it's just kind of a letdown in terms of gameplayeach boss should've gotten a new area, like the green prince didkarmelita kinda did get a new area, but it felt more like an extension of an already existing zone rather than something newkhann's gauntlet rush was very disappointing - i was expecting to explore this beautiful new tower thing, instead i only got battlesnyleth got one bossfight before her, which was... a teleporting bug in a huge arenavoid enemies are more annoying than fun, especially the big void blobs of bugs tied to ceilings/wallsalso tying the final needle upgrade to the rng flea mini-games is the most infuriating decision they could've made
>>741220791>>741219203>that threadplease tell me someone saved his gens. the catboxes are all dead
>>741225423>also tying the final needle upgrade to the rng flea mini-games is the most infuriating decision they could've madewhat rng? im smelling a
>>741225679i'm sure you loved juggling fleas around because the sound reminded you of gif related
>>741225854yea i fucking loved the flea games. it was a nice change from all the fighting
>>741225924i had to pull out the shaman crest just to get a chance to win at themi got through everything else in the game with relative ease, save for groal and maybe broodmotherfucking final lace, with whom i only needed to get to the second phase ONCE, was easier for me than beating the flea mini-games, and it definitely shouldn't be like thisi like it as a concept of "a nice change from all the fighting", but i found it just too hard for no fucking reason
>>741226163have you considered that maybe youre just not that good at them? i finished them within 1 hour on my very first playthrough with hunter.
>>741226415>within 1 hourme tooand i think that's way too much for shovelware mini-games
>>741225423unrelated but somehow the pic you posted is the hottest depiction of hornet that I’ve seen
>>741221964>"To pair with another is a base instinct, and one that brings some bugs great joy. I once sought similar union, but of my own mates none could match my lifespan."What we can infer:>Hornet acknowledges the inherent desire in bugs to seek a partner, but she has little desire to mate with other bugs (see: "brings some bugs great joy " instead of "brings me great joy"). At one point, Hornet sought suitors, but found none suitable for her, since she'd outlive them all, what with her being half pale being. It's unclear whether she was in a relationship at one point ("sought similar union [...] but [..] none could match my lifespan" doesn't imply consummated mateship so much as it implies looking for someone suitable to mate with).Hornet likely had sex at some point, but nowhere is it implied that Hornet was a giga slut who fucked dozens of bugs in daily orgies, or that she has a flippant, carefree attitude towards sex. The opposite is implied, with her failing to empathize with bugs who mate ("brings some bugs great joy" indicating that Hornet herself has a hard time understanding love and sex). Your headcanon is weak and you're reaching.
>>741226709The rape fetishist wrote that
>>741226709This is true. I had sex with Hornet too and you know this because it's not mentioned, implied by omission. "Anon fucked Hornet" it would read.
I think you fuckers should stop arguing about the mating habits of Hornet and start preparing to see her in a handwoven bikini for the DLC which is coming this week.
>>741220791
>>741227091We will probably get more electric tool
>>741226709Nah, the keyphrase here is >"I once sought similar union, but of my own mates none could match my lifespan"The implication here is that Hornet not only had multiple mates (slutty), but she was continually using them up one after another, maybe exhausting their "usefulness" after only a few days. This is, obviously, exceedingly promiscuous and romantically negligent behaviour. It isn't headcanon. This is canon flavour text Team Cherry consciously wrote to define Hornet's character. Also, "but of my own mates" is not prospective language. It directly states in past tense that Hornet had multiple mates (e.g. sexual partners) who she burned through before realising that none could satisfy her nymphomaniac sexual stamina. That is why Hornet only gets off on gang rapes now.
I wonder if this area was a teaser for the DLC
>>741227420its from the Voltnest in Sands of Karak
>>741227420the pink things represent the average amount of sexual experience of most of the bugs and the big pillar represents Hornet's sexual experience
>>741224680>>741224758
>>741227480I didn't know there was a voltnest there
>>741227420You understandably missed a secret area
>>741223345benny frank
>>741219203GOTD or looking like it
>>741227630I am still playing chapter 3 so I'll go there
>>741224541Holy fucking trvth nvke lost in a random thread
>>741227719You can go there in chapter 2 I just don't know how you're supposed to know without randomly seeing it on the map while looking for something else (what happened to me)
>>741227792i easily found it on my first playthrough. the area looked sus as fuck
>>741227480is this an act 3 thing?
>>741227847It does look sus but the maneuver you have to do to get to it is very unnatural and I wouldn't blame someone for trying it a few times and figuring they were wrong, thinking it was just another one of those rooms that only open as part of a quest.
>>741227893nope you can even do it in act 1
>>741227186>It directly states in past tense that Hornet had multiple mates (e.g. sexual partners)I'm with you here, though sex isn't implied so much as mateship alone.>but she was continually using them up one after another, maybe exhausting their "usefulness" after only a few days. This is, obviously, exceedingly promiscuous and romantically negligent behaviour.All headcanon. That Hornet has a hard time empathizing with hedonistic bugs in the first line of the journal entry ("one that brings some bugs great joy") puts doubt on your nymphomaniac interpretation of Hornet. We don't know how many mates she had (other than it being plural), and given bug lifespans are short and Hornet is effectively immortal, it's unclear if she lived for 400 years and had 2 partners before remarrying under Hallownest customs, or if she lived for 100 years and had 2000 partners. Claiming the latter isn't an overreach is itself an overreach. Anyway, shut up.>>741226951There's not much leeway for "of my own mates" to read as anything other than "past partners". I'm being charitable here. I just wanted to correct that anon's egregious headcanon. Anyway, what >>741227091 said. I don't wish to derail the thread any longer. Carry on.
>>741228065You can not do it in act 1. No, autistic speed run tactics don't count, no one does those in a normal playthrough.
>normal Silksong threads can't be a thing on /v/ because incel schizos are too mindbroken over a single bit of flavor textKEK
The DLC seems to have some electric thing going on as well, that's why I thought it's related to the voltnests, but maybe not
>>741228260It's all indians and filipinos btw. They're all like this.
>>741228203its not autistic speedrun tactics and you can do it by climbing mount fay without clawline. It is very hard to do and no player would do it on his first playthrough but it is possible. Also very fun as someone who took the time to do it. Having double jump in act 1 is fun
>>741220791WHORE
>>741228128What do you think mating entails? Platonic buddy activities?Hornet's libido didn't just disappear overnight after she accepted none of her mates would match her lifespan. She's for all intents and purposes biologically ageless, and that obviously includes her hormones and reproductive urges. It's safe to conclude that, even if she no longer commits to serial monogamy, Hornet is still open to other forms of sexual trysts and activities to satisfy her endless lust.
>>741224284
>>741228260>too mindbroken over a single bit of flavor textBased
>>741228345-NY
>Plasmium was first discovered by my master at the farthest edge of Pharloom, hidden deep in salt-stricken waters. I brought it to these caves under her direction, to study how it flourishes in a foreign place.Salt-stricken waters, eh?
>>741228581Yeah, that probably makes more sense
>>741227420>>741227480This is in Memorium, bros. Look at the floor on the right.
>>741228813Yeah, but all areas in the memorium are references for other areas, except I did not find an area like this anywhere else, that's why I was confused at first.
EEEEEEiiiiiiira
i seriously cannot fathom the mind of someone so upset a videogame character had sex he'd spend months arguing about it and seriously thinking it was a malicious act from the devs against himself.
>>741230352>heWe are legion.
>>741230352
>>741228469Well if Hornet can't go two seconds without taking big bug cock, how come she never does so over the course of the game?
>>741219203AUDINO!
>>741219550She is an insect. Look up how spider or mantis mate.
>>741230865I brought up that point myself in one of my earlier replies. It's an inconsistency between the background lore and Hornet's in-game characterisation, which paints her with a more subdued disposition. That's why I recommended sex minigames to better reflect some of the journal entries in the game.
>>741219203I just wanted to say FUCK YOU to the niggers that told me Beast crest was bad, this is the most fun crest in the entire game
>>741224143>Hornet and Lace as mother and daughterI like that a lot better. I never even realized.

>>741224758she molested them jumped on his head naked
>>741221770I think it was just a throwaway line and they didn’t think people were schizophrenic enough to start hating her entirely because she’s not a virgin.

>>741233030it do be like that
Team Cherry ruined Hornet's life because Blackrock funded mass media brainwashed them into thinking premarital sex is no big deal. She will never be in a stable relationship ever again.
>>741231805My post was very clear and well-structured. I'm sorry you're a zoomer coomer whose brain is too fried to possess basic reading comprehension because your whore mother gave you a tablet to watch brainrot videos as a baby while she took dick for crack.
>>741233239It's a bug
>>741233713But Team Cherry are humans. I thought indies would be better than AAA.
>>741230352It has to be some weird form of autistic trolling/b8. Nobody is actually seriously upset over this, right? Right?

>>741234061I am not seriously upset. I am a little bit disappointed in the developers. I still think Silksong is a great game overall.
>>741219203Where the hell is Sea of Sorrows? I thought it would get a release date last week. They promised 2026, so I'm imagining October. They better announce it in 2 months.
>>741222586It ought to be.
>>741221770>devs include line about how Hornet struggles to form real attachments due to outliving everyone else>this is actually an elaborate blackrock psyop to spite the player
>>741234536Well, AAA games do this on purpose. Team Cherry probably thought nothing of it, but they still inadvertently contributed to the agenda.

>>741223578Bro, that's your (half) sister...
>>7412207471. Hornet is one of several million of Pale King's children. It's not like she was going to inherit anything so she decided to just find love with some (presumed) commoners.2. She's biologically immortal and extremely old. It's not like she was unfaithful or fucking around, she was actually trying to have a relationship with mortal bugs. All the pale beings have this problem. The Knight and Hollow Knight would both probably have several exes if their life path allowed for it. Instead, Hollow Knight was turned into a vessel to contain the fucking sun and The Knight was put in gay baby jail before somehow finding his way to the surface and starting the game. In fact, The Knight now has TWO bitches in his basement as of the end of Silksong, one of which is a MILF.
>>741231086>She is an insectIs she? Her mother is a spider (not an insect) and her father is a worm (not an insect). She's actually half mollusk half arachnid.

>>741241513He should have picked up a nail and did what the knight did.
>>741241234Of the known Pale Beings, 3 of them had kids, those being Pale King, White Lady, and Grand Mother Silk. Pale King and White Lady produced a gorillion children, so much so that an entire huge area of their kingdom is littered with the masks of their children. Grand Mother Silk never, as far as we know, had any biological children of her own, but she did grant her silk to the Weavers and then created Phantom and Lace as artificial lifeforms made from her silk.The Pale King is, allegedly, still alive out there somewhere. He could still be having kids, but it's more likely that Hornet, The Knight, Hollow Knight, and his other infinity kids produced grandkids for him.
>>741241638The Knight was a being of Void due to the experiments PK did on his kids. Pale King himself could not have trapped The Radiance in The Void like The Knight did.
>>741241792>The Pale King is, allegedly, still alive out there somewhereI think Team Cherry wanted to hint that he died in HK (we pick up his soul, and the Godseeker said he was erased), but they did a pretty poor job at it so it's not very clear either way.
Did the game even tell us what happened at the end of hollow knight?
>>741232247Funny how everyone disregards that Lace is not a bug but a silk construct. Bro those are not her clothes it’s her body.
>>741242571In the godhome ending he just straight up killed radiance, no? If he can do it, surely an actual god can find a way too.
>>741220791l-lewd...
>cool idea that the developers thought of at the last minute and awkwardly shoved into the game that makes no sense and is barely acknowledged in-universe but is so cool that nobody actually minds it
>>741243081Believe it or not, that's contextualized within the comic.
>>741242876The ending of act 3 show the Knight in the Void with a flash of his Lord of Shades form you get in the Godseeker ending.
>>741224284Lace is pretty but she's too one-note and didn't deserve to be the focus of the final act at all.
Please drop the DLC in the middle of November. 1. I don't even think GTA6 is even releasing this year. 2. Even if it did, I don't think I'll play it. But November is a fucking void of game releases due to everyone staying clear away from GTA.
>>741234475>Patch 5 is intended as the last significant update before Silksong’s upcoming major expansion: Sea of Sorrow.This bit from the latest patch notes makes me believe it's coming sooner than later, I'm thinking either august or september.
>>741220747It's not subverting the players expectations, it's giving information on the player's expectation. Through this they>Show her expanded lifespan compared to other bugs>Show a factor for a jaded, loner outlook on life>Suggest that where she to take another mate it would have to be someone with similar lifespan, like a human man>Give her a bit of sadness as she's otherwise given up on the happiness of love>Suggest she might be australianSeems like pretty good writing to me
>>741243151>autistic retard fails to consider what actually happens in the game
>>741245908Nah. The pale kang sucks dick. Shit writing.

>>741246056Pale King did NOTHING wrong.
>>741240358yeah, karmelita is an awesome boss, but the gauntlet before her is a real time-waster imoalso, i wish i could replay bosses in this game
>>741247297>Steals the Radiance's followers, and invades her turf>Somehow the Radiance is the bad guy>Paleking commits mass filicide just so he doesn't have to lift a finger to get rid of Radiance who is simply trying to defend her own propertyYou are playing as the bad guy in Hollow Knight
>>741243341her moveset is a modified version of hornet's moveset from the og hollow knightshe might be my favorite boss
>>741247867I honestly liked the gauntlet, I just didn't like the slow walk back to the gauntlet.
>>741248010The Radiance's followers willingly abandoned her in favor of the Pale King.The Radiance then created the infection because she'd rather genocide everyone into mindless zombies under her thrall than stop being worshiped.
>>741248136Everyone loves the Pale King
>>741248136Pale King propganda. You weren't there. He tried to bribe the bugs with lies:"The Pale King wanted these bugs to devote themselves to him, and in return, he promised them that the kingdom of Hallownest would last eternally."The Radiance only acted when he brainwashed even the moth tribe as well.
>>741223523That literally does happen. Do the twisted bud quest.
>>741235213Find another immortal, possibly one with a plump ass that's soft as silk.
>>741248041i found the gauntlet too easy and too repetitiveif it was harder and just a one-time thing, kinda like what they did with khann, would be miles better
>>741220747Fairy Tail had a villain use an attack that only hurt people who had sex and it was funny.
>>741243341She's better than her sister
>>741243341I'd shove my needle up her exhaust organ if you catch my drifter's cloak
>>741220791SEXO
>>741220286I seriously can't see how that's an indightment on her character, if she could've stayed with one mate she would have but they all died
>>741243341How come Phantom needs a mask but Lace doesn't?
>>741248246Reminder that Pale King's true form is like 300x bigger than both of those two combined.
>>741249519It's an indictment of her father's inability to raise his progeny right. Not being able to select a suitable partner is classic fatherless behaviour.
>>741249525Maybe it's just to cover up her withered, decaying face.
>>741249760Which means he actively chose the /ss/ life.
>>741219550I feel like if they hadn't made her used goods, Silksong would've been three times as popular. At least chuds are too distracted to realize she's black.
You virgins should kill yourselves
>>741250035Based...
>>741250035
>>741224680>calling others schizo>acting like Hornet is real
>>741248246This art is amazing. But the White Lady's black bandages should be fashioned like a straitjacket.
>>741240628its hard but not that hard. very duable even ive done it but it took like 10 hours for the whole thing
>>741234957By /v/irgin standards, managing to have sex at all makes you interchangeable with Emperor Caligula.
>>741256141the real sorrows were the wait we waited along the way to the sea
If you guys weren't midwits, you would've picked rain world over this bug shit.
>>741257202I did play Rainworld. It was interesting but a lot of elements of the game were just annoying. And all the unexplained, unintuitive techm that you'd never find out about without trying a bunch of really stupid shit without any hints or explanation.
>>741219203Huh
>>741257202>3 dark areas in a row without any source of light>Ends with a dead endWholly replaced by Casualties: Unknown. Which is a terrible game but it's not Rainworld-terrible.
>>741257202rain world is like a decade old at this point, already played it and the content that came after with the new devs wasn't nearly as good as the base game.

>>741257605>so is hollow knightthis thread is specifically about Silksong which came out less than a year ago moron-kun
>>741258545the whore of Pharloom in all her glory
>>741222586Silksong bizarrely would only be better if it were a bug H game. AI will give us all the Hscenes this game needs to go from a 10/10 game to becoming the first 420/10 game ever.
>>741221097The fact that most relationships in the first game were same-sex should have been a bear spray for you morons.

>>741246243on-model nsfws. honestly so good, it's worth finding again.
Is this thread real or are you all pretending to be retarded?
>>741220286Dropped
>>741259416>When is the new DLC2026, according to the trailer. >Hey guys! We're having so much fun making Sea of Sorrow that we turned it into a full game!
>>741259661im just letting you know im having way too much fun reading your comment I decided to turn it into a new thread
>>741259661Yo ho ho, anon.
>>741223345DLC
>>741250035based
>>741257202I played and liked both, what now? (except the watcher, that was a big pile of india)
>Hollow Knight was revealed on Kickstarter in November 2014, with a goal of A$35,000.I'm curious if any of the original backers are still here.
>>741219203It's crazy how much faster the game goes on your second time through. It only took 4 hours to get to act 2.
>>741243341Phantom has so much aura that it corporeally manifests as smoke/steam.
>>741219550>>741220286You people are fucking retarded.That paragraph is explaining that she repeatedly had sex with Little Ghost over and over, but he kept dying and having to revive. She isn't some whore that slept with a thousand men. She's a slut who slept with her brother a thousand times in a row.She is complaining that The Knight couldn't last in bed as long as she could.
>>741263337Well that doesn't make her a slut. A sex-crazed nympho brotherfucker, sure, but not a slut.
>>741219550Nah she slapped a lesbian for trying to molest her. Hornet is chud based
>>741263337that's pretty much adjacent to pure maiden to me
>>741257202Played both, liked both.
>>741258545>pantsuMuch more erotic than a featureless crotch. I appreciate that it's on-model, too. Silksong needed upskirt panty shots.
>>741266604yeah
>>741225438>Saving a genJust do your own, retard
>>741266834nah, his was objectively the best on-model hornet. someone has to have it somewhere, just waiting for that anon to supply it.
>>741263337it really is sad how the braindamaged masses can't grasp thatmaybe for the best, if TC wanted to spell everything out super explicitly there would certainly be drama about hornet yelling I FUCKING DESPISE FAGGOTS DIE YOU WORTHLESS SCUM instead of the current more subtle depiction
>>741257202While wonderfully designed, Rain World shrimply isn't fun to play. inb4 filtered.
>>741267812>Rain World shrimply isn't fun to play.I had fun with playing Rain World, as well as all the DLC, which means you are wrong.
>>741249525masks aren't real, it's just a visual design shorthand for a head and a facethere are a bunch of feral beast-type bugs with masks and plenty of sapient-type bugs without, don't be fooled by lorebait
>>741268029>masks aren't realSome are, Some aren't.
>>741227598
>>741227420No, this is Voltnest, it's a secret area, i also missed it. With the dlc called sea of sorrow i think the dlc bait is the top right lake
>>741259531Where do you think we are?
I finally beat the game, Act 3 true ending.98% and I don't know what the FUCK I am missing.
>>74127173080% or more, looking up what you missed is 100% justified.
>>741273619this could use an extra edit
>>741219203Kikoken
>>741271730A common one is the spool fragment under the elevator in whiteward but for me it was the spool fragment at the top of the high halls

>>741276617The cosplayer was harassed for recording this video btw.
>>741229695>Headphones crackle ever so slightly
>>741219203My biggest dissapointment with silksong was that I didn't hear a single SHAW or even a HIGALE in the entire game.
>>741228297I vaguely remember one of the weavenext wall texts mentioning something about salt that I thought was going to relate to a later area but never did, I wonder if it's going to tie into the DLC.
>>741242876Wait for Godhome (silksong edition)
>>741280730>Zippers on pants are OK>Zippers on a catsuit are a no-go, if you want to urinate you need to take the whole thing off or let me hold and drink from your catheter bagYeah, puritans are fucking weird.>>741282230Her in-game vocalization is a lot more tuned down from the very early trailers.>No Japanese countingWhen will the weeaboos stop suffering?
>>741277280benny frank
>>741219203ADIDAS
>>741282230Since someone talked about how convenient it was that this completely different bug kingdom happened to speak the same language, and that we know other bug languages do exist from certain characters communicating with strange or broken phrases and grammar, my headcanon has been that Pharloom actually DOES speak a different language to Hallownest, and it is simply translated for our benefit because Hornet understands it due to divine knowledge.From this, I extrapolate that certain phrases she used in Hallownest belonged specifically to that language, and the new ones she uses in Pharloom belong to that location, since even casual conversational phrase sounds are different.
>>741253690Hmm, maybe I'll take another look turn.
>>741224284>>741228478pretty character and very based within its initial 5 minutes of gloryabsolute meme non-character otherwise. genuinely dropped the ball
>>741260358>except the watcher, that was a big pile of indiaDo yourself a favour and just look up where the echoes are on the map, assuming that's what's filtering you.

>>741224670everyone dies alone eventually. married couple do not, in fact, pass away together at the same time
>>741291379No but I did in hollow knight. I haven’t started Silksong yet because I’m scared
>>741223345"EIRA!" is my favorite in SS, followed closely by "FRIEND!"
>>741300403youre a massive retard with no idea of what hes talking about. game is fine we are all waiting for the DLC. With no Silksong Godhome yet there is no reason to keep playing it
GIT GUUUUUUUUUUUD
When the DLC Team Cherry you bums. Its summer release the sea themed DLC NOW
>>741223345Trvst the plan, brother. At some point we will get the Godhome DLC with the trve ending, fighting against the Lord of Shades, and at the end, right at the very end, after a bossfight that will make Absolute Radiance looks like a trickle of piss in the morning shine>SHAW!
