Took me about 60 tries (and lots of agony) to finally beat Pure Vessel in the training hall. Now I need to beat him again in the 4th Pantheon. God help me

are the HK bugs human-sized? or is this a Bugs Life deal? Will there be a comical reveal in Silksong that reveals this is all taking place in someone's backyard?

Look at how huge the grains of dirt are.

Anything human would completely destroy all the appeal of the world they've created, so I seriously hope they don't do that shit.

I saw it as a post-apocalypse where only bugs survived, and ended up mutating.

Jibberish languages are only retarded rhwy either sound dumb as fuck or they literally use some words in fucking English. The one in this game is perfectly fine.

Geo doesn't make any sense as currency. You can't create a functioning economy out of shiny rocks you find lying around.

Hard to say because you can't use realistic physics to judge the size, because videogames and fantasy.
With the size leafs and other random things in the background, like raindrops it feels like it's a world with man sized bugs.
When you're doing the small bugs that act like people you have the huge things in the background to establish it, when you don't it's implied that isn't the case.

Gold is a valuable commodity because it is scarce, geo is literally everywhere.

Not everyone can go everywhere, it seems.

Nigga, the Knight went down to Hallownest with nothing but an old, blunt nail and a standard jump.

The pale king can go fuck himself.

What's that? "More sawblades" you said?

Can do.

The Knight isn't exactly a normal bug either

He was weak and scrawny when he started out and got stronger as he went. Remember, you pass by countless other vessel corpses throughout the journey. The Knight is the first to get that far.

Attached: 1552326800353.jpg (1280x1350, 175K)

Its a good way to give the characters a voice and personality without voice-acting.

Remember, this game was made by three people. Most of the voices were made by them, and their friends and family.

Also backers. Pretty sure all the backer characters were voiced by the backers themselves, or at least most of them.

Weak, but strong enough to survive, as opposed to the other vessels. We also see other bug corpses at different places, but it just goes to show that not everyone can just go down and fetch some easy geo, because it's dangerous as fuck. The only npcs you see multiple times in hallownest are all some kind of warrior

You are like a small child before me.

Full English voice acting should have never happened in any game

I started playing on PS1 and even just bubbles were fine
Hollow knight "HEGALEEE" is as far as I can go personally

Took me hours to get Pure Vessel down and now he practically never touches me.
Try to get him on Ascended difficulty (double damage) and if you do, you'll be ready for the Pantheon.
For the next Pantheon and Absolute Radiance, you're gonna need luck, and patience, and work.

Practice. I thought I couldn't beat anything past Pantheon 3 too at first. But I practiced and eventually beat Pantheon 5 and Absolute Radiance at the top. I got my fucking platinum.

That would require good audio recording quality. I don't recall any character sounding noticeably worse than any other character.

What's the deal with the collector being so damn easy?
First boss I didn't die once to.
Did I wait too long to fight him and now I'm op?
Or is he a joke

He's kind of a joke. In the final Pantheon version he summons primal aspids, and is slightly less of a joke then, but still a joke.

You're in the wrong mindset. PV eventually needs to become something you can topple consistently to get to the actual challenge.

Sure, with a specific loadout, but I also need it to work against the other bosses.

Probably. It really depends on how many hits you need to deal with his minions.

>a faithful and sweet antfu

Is salubra bless just to troll completionists, or does it have any good effects?

When you sit on a bench, after a few seconds you'll start recovering Soul.

You just gotta bait out his 3-hit combo and hit him afterwards

>seriously complaining about free dlc

How about you shut your whore mouth.

this

Metroidvanias are all about interconnected worlds, adding locations post-launch is a dead idea since they will feel isolated and out of place. Furthermore, the big draw of exploring locations is the possibility of finding useful items/upgrades that will make further exploration easier still. Post-launch DLCs, however, are made for people who 100% the game, and they don't care about those anymore.

>Would anything change? No.
A fuckton of things would change. Shrinking something in size greatly increases the surface/volume ratio, which affects adhesion, surface tension and multiple other things. Things like the relative size of raindrops, relative strength of muscle fibers or the amount of force needed to roll a wheel would change dramatically.

I always imagined the Knight as about a foot tall.

What works better on NK Grimm: quick slash + quick focus or should I just go with Joni's Blessing + Lifeblood Core + nailmaster's glory and don't even bother trying to heal?

Because when I constantly have Great Slash charged I don't have enough time to get a heal off when he does the spike move. Or is there a way to instantly cancel the charge?

By the way, on another note, is it just me or is Sprintmaster incredibly good?

Just don't get hit, bro. Nail arts are awkward because you will miss out on pogo during the dives. Go strength+quickslash+sharp shadow.

Hmm, I see. I thought you could ''reliably'' get a heal off during the spikes, but maybe it's not worth it.

>sharp shadow
What for?

Also why would you want to pogo on that one move when you can dash out of the way and get a great slash in?

Quick Slash is awful for Grimm, you should be focusing on hitting once per attack. Mark of Pride, Quick Focus, Fragile/Unbreakable Strength (if you're a scrub) and Grubsong.

You can heal with Quick Focus during THREE of his attacks if you know what you're doing.

Attached: 1345604152_preview_batsdash.gif (480x270, 1.79M)

If you jump over his first bat projectile, you can safely heal as the second bat will fly over your head.

If you wait until the last flame pillar has gone off, you can heal then.

Attached: 1345604152_preview_upwalkdash2.gif (480x270, 1.61M)

If you are in the correct position for his ground spikes, you can heal another mask of health (with Quick Focus.)

Attached: 1345604152_preview_dashpogo2.gif (480x270, 1.75M)

Quick Focus + Shape of Unn is absolutely free healing during his flame pillar attack.

what a scrub

Grimm is all about reacting. You need to see where he appears on screen and be ready to do the appropriate response. He never gets faster or changes his patterns. If you learn these counters, you will be able to avoid damage/get a hit in/get a quick heal to cover a mistake EVERY time without fail.

Attached: 1345604152_preview_firepillars.gif (480x270, 1.82M)

>What for?
Cheating extra hit on uppercuts/pillars. Plus with the extra distance you can be an extra spicy cunt and abyss shriek/dash his bullet hell.

Best advice I can give is treating Grimm like a dance partner, with him leading you through the fight. Don't get greedy, just let him appear, counter, and repeat.

Where the fr*ck do l go? Or is it one of those games

wow best analogy for the fight. good job op

another user, can you give me advice on mighty zote, his attacks seem so irregular that i keep getting killed.

I wish I had some leftover money for this.

'Tis a metroidvania, yes.

Do l get a map eventually?

Treating the fight like a dance helped me finally beat NKG...

Now i just need to work on Zote, his attacks are just so.... random that it is hard to find a good time to go in on him

Grimm theme > Nightmare King theme
Come at me faggots

Ye

>it is hard to find a good time to go in on him
Pogo on him when he flails. Slash him on the ground when he spits. You can also time descending dark to his dropping from the top of the screen to both do damage and i-frame the shockwave.

Zote was my wall for the longest time in Pantheon of Hallownest. I wrote him off as random myself. Zote is a boss you need to control. His adds need to die the second they're on screen. They are priority one, use Abyss shriek if you have to. It costs less than the mask to heal would if you let them get loose.

You can't run from Zote, getting away from him jumps means he will teleport on top of you, so never box yourself into a corner against him. The ideal range for Zote is just under a quart of the arena away from him. That way he'll be less inclined to teleport and will likely flail around on his sword, which you can pogo and hit him a solid 6 or 7 times.

If you want to get fancy, you can Desolate Dive him when he's teleported off screen. You'll dodge his shockwaves and hit him with your own. It's tricky to get the timing down, but with enough practice in the Hall of Gods, you;ll get it.

When you learn where to stand with Zote, and how to bait him, he's not that hard in the slightest. You just need to take control of the fight by killing those adds and spending the fight up close to him. He only has the teleport shockwaves, sword flailing, add spawning and zote bomb attacks so he's actually pretty basic. It's just in a panic, most people create distance and get landed on. Good luck.

Making it 3D won't improve it though.

The whole nail and needle (even if they aren't literally nails or needles) as weapons thing makes me think of them as being around an inch or so tall, depending on the bug.
The fact that we have bugs in the Silksong trailer that uses scissors as weapons, likely sewing scissors, it seems to be about right.
Whether or not humans exist, seems pretty irrelevant though. They don't play any important role in the story so far, at least that we know of, and I don't think they ever will.

Attached: 1552659751748.gif (200x200, 594K)

hell yes it would. the way physics works IRL puts pressure on how biology develops.

bugs IRL have a hard limit on their size due to the way their respiratory system works. in the past when oxygen levels in the atmosphere were higher, bugs were fucking HUGE because of it.

also due to the relationship between surface area and volume on a purely mathematical level, there is a hard limit to how large a creature can get before it collapses in on itself due to its own weight. also gravity has a clear relationship with bone structures. birds can only fly due to their lightweight bone structures, and mammals/dinosaurs of certain sizes can only exist with very specific bone structures (see elephants). this is why the most massive mammalian and prehistoric creatures (whales/megalodons) were/are aquatic.

of course none of this shit matters in HK because it's a magical fantasy setting. there are all kinds of sizes of bugs, and their sizes relative to one another based on their real-life counterparts is a very vague one at best.

cool strawman
super metroid makes it immediately obvious when you need a powerup to progress. it doesn't have a tedious jumping puzzle that leads you to a point that says "oh, nope. come back later". that's called "game design".

This game consistently has threads with people hating on it and I just don't understand why. It follows the same rules as super metroid where you can see the start of areas you don't have the proper power ups to traverse yet. I really don't get why it gets so much hate here... well actually I'd venture a guess that it's mostly either one furious shitposter looking for easy bait or a bunch of newfags who don't actually like their video games to be video games

>You're being pedantic and you didn't make an actual argument
It's hard to make an argument to change the mind of someone who "hates" Super because it's slightly more archaic than Symphony.
>I say metroidlike instead of "metroidvania" because I think that the term is cancer
Well then you need to think things through. You're gonna get called up on calling a Metroid game a Metroid-like every single time and you know it, and if you refuse to say Metroidvania then you're not exactly leaving yourself with many options and you're asking for it.

why do people defend the voices so vehemently
It's one thing to like them but it's another thing to viciously attack anyone who dislikes them in any capacity

>slightly more archaic than symphony
Do you want me to compare the amount of content between the games?

>he thinks any of the recent HK threads constitute as hate
You should have seen these threads when the autistic LMfag was at the height of his power.

winceworthy phrasing

Nah mate. Pretentious is just one of my pet peeve words especially when some retard doesn't even know what it means when they use it in a sentence.

It's okay to not like the voices but at least insult it properly.

Well in this case calling them pretentious is retarded whether you like them or not.

I am playing for the first time. First metroidvania here, too.

I beat Hornet on the 4th or 5th try. Is she REALLY the casual filter for this game?

I struggle WAY more with some of the mini-bosses and figuring out where to go then I think I will with bosses. The combat just functions well.

I'm not sure how someone could find super metroid 'bland and boring'. Its oozing with atmosphere. Its dark and tense and theres so much freedom and mechanical depth to the point where you can do the entire game backwards if you're good enough. And the games overall brevity makes it super replayable

I don't know. I mean I like SotN a lot too, butbif you're biggest draw to the genre is the RPG mechanics I feel like theres better options out there

What a pretentious post

It's a shame really. I hope those dark times didn't turn off people from picking up LM because it's still a great game. One of the only metroidvanias to rival HK in size if not be even slightly bigger.

Why does this look like an endgame boss ? I'm guessing I'm not far enough to kill them.

It's not that hard but people will try to act as if they're some great casual filter

Ok, the little friendly guy told me that my nail wasn't great enough anyway, so I'm just going to search for that city.

Team cherry has a fair collection words in a dictionary, it's not all "nonsense".

Such a tiny thing to get turned off by though, perhaps go back to playing tabletops.

Someone actually used La-Mulana to shitpost? What a fucking faggot.

Looking at pure statistics, 55% of people who have purchased the game haven't beaten Hornet. I think this is partly the reason why people call it a casual filter.
steamcommunity.com/stats/367520/achievements
However! There is room for misunderstandings. We can see only 71% of people have acquired the first charm, which is relatively easy to get, so perhaps it's fair to say that around 30% of people have bought the game or never played it, or have purchased the game and played it for 5 minutes and gave up (didn't like style,graphic, gameplay?), reasons which are unrelated to the difficulty of the first bosses. If we could filter these statistics and remove all players who have played less than 1 hour we would get a better picture.

You can defeat them, you already have everything it takes to beat them. You just need to accept their challenge. The reward is respect.

Will Hornet be staring the human down? Please say yes.

Not at release. I'm talking about when the game launched and before any of the dlcs came out. You couldn't make a thread here about hk without it getting past 100 posts due to all the people convinced that team cherry paid people to come here.

The game's focus isn't even what bloody language they residents speak, why should this be a deciding factor to play the game.
It's practically the same as disliking the game for playing as a bug, why should this matter, let make it so you play as mechs with really loud and annoying sound effects instead then, oh right, that's already a thing.

I want naked Radiance Girl.

It wasn't that bad. Just the standard Yea Forums reactions to indie platformers. We still had healthy discussion inbetween the shilling accusations.

And to be completely honest, the game was such an unoptimized mess on release.

The right charm combination can help a lot. I think I used Mark of Pride, fragile strength and the one that gives you more i-frames after you take damage. I think I had space for one more, but I don't recall

I just got the game the other day and I love it, and I've beat all of the story mode up until black egg temple. Is the DLC worth doing? I got decently far in the path of pain before I just got bored and went to fight some stuff, might try again later. I've heard that once you kill the final boss you can't go back and do anything you've missed, so is there any DLC that is really necessary and won't screw up which ending I get (I've heard Grimm Troupe gives a different ending, which I don't want).

Friendly reminder that Hollow Knight isn't a fucking platformer.

>Aho sanjo
What did she mean by this?

I spammed the absolute fuck out of Descending Dark until I ran out of Soul, then mashed my face into them and prayed that they died before I did. I beat them with two masks left, which means I was one hit away from dying.

nah, once you beat the final boss you can keep playing on that save all you want
grimm troupe doesnt give a different ending but it has two endings itself
the DLC is very worth going into, all the bosses it adds are top notch

>The reward is respect.
And another path open. And a charm.

I'm still eternally pissed that they never used this www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCYP9L2FfQg in the game or even added a new PoP even though they apparently planned to have on in Godmaster as a bonus.

With Shape of Unn alone, you can heal during spikes, pillars and bats. Quick Heal isn't even necessary.

Nope, I'll buy the Silksong one if there is a physical version, though. If it just ends up being downloadable content, then I *may* double dip.

This is basically what happened to me.
I love Metroid and the Metroidvanias and various games of that ilk. HK was and is frequently spoken of as though it's on the same level as the best of the best for this genre and I went into it expecting at least a great game only to be greeted with one that is merely good. Going in with elevated expectations just highlighted the game's flaws and left me with an overall negative impression of a game I probably would have enjoyed more if it was sold to me as it actually is.

I came here expecting Iselda lewds. Wtf bros? Where are they?

That bug ass. Those bug legs. That bug tummy. And putting her weaver training to good use as well.

Scripted. It is possible to fight the Traitor Lord without her showing up though

Oh no, I dreamnailed her

Iselda lewds are just a meme.

Genuine lewds are for Hornet (and maybe White Lady if we ask for it enough times.)

That happened to me a few weeks ago. I still haven't attempted another run.

Pretty sure Nola is alive and Cloth was just searching for a way to prove herself after you inspired her in Ancient Basin. Ghosts in HK generally don't realize they are dead, she probably thinks she survived the fight and is merely resting before going back to her friend.

I can understand that. I was convinced to play Undertale by a friend who haled it is the second coming of Jesus in video game form, and ended up disliking the game more than I probably would have if I went in with no expectations. I'm sorry if fags overhyping the game ruined your experience.

This thread is even lacking hornet lewds so deliver or get out

Nah, she clearly wanted to die. But you can get better from that and find happiness again so I didn't kill her.

Nope.

Why didn't they just have a bug on hand to breed the White Lady?

how does he break the 4th wall? how is he out of place for that matter?

I've been practicing Absolute Radiance for a while now and I just can't achieve any sort of consistency with it. While I've beaten her plenty of times by now, I still take tons of damage and lose more often than I win. With NKG and PV, after beating them once I could beat them fairly consistently and by the fifth win I could take them out just about every time. With AR it just doesn't happen, I'm still losing constantly. Any tips?

>how does he break the 4th wall?
By referencing the devs' previous game that's clearly not canon for HK?

It's random

She's the only boss in the game that forces the player to take on a playstyle akin to a lowly bug facing against a goddess. That's the mindset needed against AR.

Someone explain what Baldur's Shell does, because I dun ged it
I switched to it and Shroom charm for Lost Kin because FUCK ghosts, but the shell did literally nothing if I got hit (I think?)

I would not have beat him within a few tries without the spores, though
Thank fuck it one-shot the ghosts

You are still interrupted and staggered if you are hit while in the shell, but you don't take damage.

I think there's a difference between strength and endurance. Which Cornifer probably has a lot of if he managed to seduce some massive warrior lady and make her fall entirely in love with him despite her outward complaining.

Looking at the wiki, it says that Baldur's shell completely negates four hits taken during focus before breaking and needing to be repaired at a bench. It says that it "Appears as though you've been hit, and gives you i-frames, but doesn't damage you."

Naw you have good taste

He could have set her up with another bug before peacing out. He got to mount Herrah after all.

wait so let me get this straight

In the Godhome you go through 5 Boss Rushes where in each you have to fight like 10 bosses in a row without checkpoints. Then in the final one you fight the true final boss Absolute Radiance, right? Then next to that you have the Hall of Gods where you can challenge/practice each boss individually at 3 different difficulty levels.

Then, what difficulty are the bosses in those Pantheons/Boss Rushes at? At the medium ''Ascended'' difficulty, or at the difficulty they were at in the main game?

And then, does there exist a Radiant Absolute Radiance? And is he more difficult or easier than the one you fight in the Pantheon, when you have to fight Pure Vessel before him?

this is confusing

Attached: 1548267506607.jpg (600x766, 90K)

>Then, what difficulty are the bosses in those Pantheons/Boss Rushes at?
Attuned difficulty, in the 5th pantheon the bosses who have alternate arenas in ascended/radiant difficulty use those arenas (but health/damage/etc is still same as attuned).

>And then, does there exist a Radiant Absolute Radiance?
Yes

>In the Godhome you go through 5 Boss Rushes where in each you have to fight like 10 bosses in a row without checkpoints. Then in the final one you fight the true final boss Absolute Radiance, right?

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

You wish. The 5th boss rush is against 43 bosses without checkpoints in order to fight Absolute Radiance and unlock the last ending.

No, I don't think simple boss rushes with an arbitrary difficulty increase are fun. Luckily it seems I can fight the Radiance in the normal game as well, so that's nice. Shame about the Pure Vessel and those other Pantheon-only bosses, but it is what it is.

DO IT FAGGOT

Rude. She's a married ant.

Those are behind 10-boss pantheons without the increased difficulty. The first 2 pantheons you will do first try, most likely.

ass too big

pure speculation on my part but I reckon the Weavers are or were hot shit in this new kingdom and Hornet is related to the Weavers in a big way hence them capturing her. Her being half Pale Being certainly doesn't hurt either. I don't think Hornet would have willingly gone along with them since her mind is full of nothing but Hollownest

the game just seems a lot brighter than Hollow Knight in every way. I feel like it's hiding something sinister but mass infanticide is pretty hard to top

>There was a higher being who ruled deepnest, like white lady or a wyrm, either way he dissappeared. Herra was his spouse, comparatively a normal bug.
>PRESUMABLY Herra wanted Pale King to give her a child so a higher being could lead Deepnest. Speculation.
>Weavers had a connection to deepnest, MAYBE served the old king.
>Weavers helped the pale king make void construct (Silk spools in the white palace), maybe had something to do with making the vessels.
>Weavers raised Hornet for a significant part of her life.

oh god his mouth has some kind of goldeneye/cover syndrome going on.

What happened to the king?

Starved to death because you can't eat sawblades.

Well, did he at least try it to see if he really couldn't?

Where does the water in the Royal Waterways go? Where does the Blue Lake receive its water that allows the endless rain in the City of Tears?
How is there so much vegetation in the Queen's Gardens in spite of there being no real light source?
What the fuck do the bee people eat? There aren't any flowers near where they live.

The weavers are the ones pulling the strings behind what's happening to the new kingdom. They need Hornet to fullfill their ultimate purpose since she can focus soul. I suspect they were previously banished from this kingdom or/and simply ran away to Hallownest during its times of glory.

They don't stop spinning.
You're asking some real questions here user, just like how there's no real ranged weapons like a bow in all of Hollownest but there's shit like elevators, trams, phonographs and mining conveyor belts.

Doesn't some of the water empty out near where you get the Dashmaster charm?

So, in the past, a bunch of people journeyed down into Hallownest. Like a shitload. You can see their corpses scattered everywhere. And yet not ONE of them found a Stag Station or thought to take advantage of it? The Elderbug states that he'd never seen the local Stag Station open since he was born.

The Higher Being that ruled Deepnest with Herrah is dead, if the Mushrooms are to be believed.
The Weavers came from another place, presumably the kingdom in Silksong and began to return there probably when the Hollow Knight "ascended"
As for Hornet being raised by Weavers, I don't remember any evidence pointing to that. I thought it was still quite likely that Hornet was raised more by Vespa and White Lady since Hornet never got to see much of Herrah.

They all died or didn't bother picking up Geo because what the fuck are you going to buy in a dead kingdom?

If you Dream Nail some of the Weaver corpses, they are filled with adoration towards Hornet.

I'm pretty sure there's a room with a seal of binding in weaver's den that looks like Hornet. It's long been speculated to be hornets room.

Why did the Weavers so heavily reject the other denizens of Hallownest? Under the orders of the Pale King, some workers attempted to build a Stag Station that allowed better connectivity between Deepnest and the rest of Hallownest, but they were rejected and killed. And then there's those spooky disguised Weavers who captured you when you sat on a bench.

>spooky disguised Weavers
About that...

Maybe because spiders view insects as prey. Maybe the weavers are actually the only sentient bugs to eat other sentient bugs.

Weavers and Deepnest denizens aren't the same. The bugs in the distant village aren't weavers. It was the bugs of Deepnest and presumably Herra who rejected the Pale King, There's no evidence the weavers had anything to do with that. As far as we can conclude, the weavers actually helped the Pale King.

Will the Knight return in Silksong, if only as a flashback or dream?

>Soul Meter's been replaced by a Silk Meter
Neat.

Uh, what the fuck? I just beat the Radiance, and that was 10 times easier than NK Grimm? Also beat her in like half the time. I did not expect that.

Is Unbreakable Strength + Quick Slash that overpowered or something? Because I got a lot more opportunities to hit her than NK Grimm.

He'll have a seperate storyarch of walking through infection free Hollownest while trying to fix his broken body. First at the City of Tears statue, then the White Lady and finally the White Palace ruins. After that he gets fixed up by void juice and goes off into the desert to save his little sister.

I doubt it it. I expect we won't see much of Hollownest which isn't specifically about Hornet so we'll get some stuff about her childhood, some stuff about the Weavers and then that's it.

I would say Radiance has somewhat more forgiving patterns, a good deal of her attacks will give you a bit of time to heal while NKG has no time to heal at all

Aw come on, just a little.

I personally think that Delicate Flower will end up being the canon ending.
The Godseeker got teleported to this new Kingdom, which is where the Flower came from and we'll be able to fight The Knight by using "dream silk" on the Godseeker.

unless the Knight made as big as impression on her as he made on Bretta and Cloth I don't see Hornet thinking about him so much he'll get a dedicated cutscene

maybe in a combat based DLC or optional side activity you might fight him.

Will Tiso return?

How the fuck do people "finish" this game in like 50 hours? Do they skip literally every optional area, dont look for secrets and skip all DLCs?

I'm closing in to 100 hours right now, and I'm only like halfway done with Godmaster. And the only times I've been really stuck for multiple hours have been the 11 fights with that cunt Zote and learning NKG.

Hornet will have wet dreams about him from time to time, but nothing else.

He died. Twice. So probably not.

Now this I'm wondering about too. I'm 60 hours in, I'm at 100% completion, but I still have much to do.

Third time's the charm.

>He died. Twice.

Twice?

>One of her siblings
>The most powerful creature she's ever met
>Saved the entire kingdom and spared her mother's immortal soul having to eventually be eradicated by light
Yeah, but they haven't really interacted, right? Why would she fucking care.

I did 112% in 35 hours. Not getting stuck on bosses, having a good memory for secrets, and using the map markers helps.

How's that even possible? I 100% it in 32 hours on my first playthrough. Sure, I did use a guide to get a few of thelast things I was missing, but still...

Yep:

Reminder not to fug the bug

Going from 100% to 112% takes longer than the rest of the game combined user

>it's the beginning of a boss fight
>before the battle begins the boss is shrouded in darkness
>it looks like it could be a silhouette of the Knight
>but then the head turns slightly and the darkness diminshes
>it's fucking Zote
How would you feel?

who said they haven't interacted? I said he didn't turn her into a fangirl like he did for Cloth and Bretta. She's not just sitting down and reflecting she trying to unravel a mystery and fight hordes of enemies. It's hardly the time to be thinking about completely unrelated people. Do you think about you more succesful sibling who works i a completely unrelated field whilst struggling with an assignment from work

I didn't really use a guide, only for a handful of things, I'm trying to explore the world myself, and it takes goddamn long indeed

lol

Oh, yeah, I missed that part. Yeah, fuck that shit. I only went back to do the Grimm stuff.

>A familiar silhouette appears
>Hornet: "It can't be... You...?!"
>Just kidding, it's Zote
>...Hornet wordlessly brings out her nail. Her intent to kill is palpable.
