I won't git gud enough.
Also, I want Hornet to crawl into my butthole while I sleep at night and spin webs so that when I poop, it comes out encased in silk so I don't have to wipe.

>hopes
That there will be an in-depth story for Hornet who will serve as a full-fledged character instead of a vessel (heh) like the Knight, but at the same time that the story will be told through the gameplay and cutscenes will be used sparingly to great effect.
>expectations
That it will be hard as nails, harder than the first game. The trailer showed Hornet healing 3 masks instantly while moving, the bosses are gonna have to be insane for that to not be OP. The movement options they showed in the trailer also looked really cool.
>Fears
That they'll tone down the difficulty or make Hornet's abilities too OP, that the story might be lackluster or otherwise overdone, and that the new characters will just be retreads of the old characters.
I'm not too worried though, the game already had a reputation for being hard before Grimm Troupe and Godmaster, and the DLC just amped up the difficulty even more while keeping the story told through the gameplay in both cases. If they did that well for the DLC I'm sure they'll do the same for Silksong.
God I haven't been so excited for a game in so long, I think Pikmin 3 was the last time I got this hyped. I guess I was excited for Breath of the Wild too, but not this excited, I can't wait.

I dont see Silsong coming out this year. Maybe beginning 2020 at the earliest.
The only fear I have with this one id the questing system. You know with the fetch quests and shit...
Jeremiah Rogers
Nicholas Barnes
Were there that many fetch quests in the first game aside from the Nailsmith? And despite being a fetch quest it was very dynamic and had an extremely satisfying ending. I'm not too worried.
Colton Ortiz
Daniel Perry
Aiden Bailey
There was one with Grimm with the child iirc. But yeah they werent many. And that's the fear with this system in Silksong. Because there wasnt on in the original game.
Dominic Davis
Sebastian Bailey
Oh yeah, Grimm. I keep forgetting that's technically a fetch quest since I got the game after that DLC had already released so I found most of the flames naturally as I was exploring the map for progression. Well, I hope they do a lot with the quest system, I have faith. They've done so much already.

The Knight already “saved” Hallownest, Hornet’s gone somewhere else, somewhere new.
Zachary Turner
Hornet is a female character done right. She's not overtly bossy or talkative, she's fun to fight against, and she looks fun to play as. She's videogamey down to the very core, as opposed to being some walking piece of exposition who has no gameplay purpose.

I should really get back to Hollow Knight some time. I beat the last boss, and now I just have ten billion secret bosses to fight.
How do you even access the DLC content? I didn't see even a hint of any of it.
Austin Campbell
Lifeblood is unlocked by default
Hidden Dreams requires you to defeat Zote/Dung Defender
Grimm Troupe requires you to do a thing in Howling Cliffs
Godmaster rewuires you to unlock a coffin in the Junk Pit
Hunter Martin
The grubs, relics, and essence were essentially all long quests.
Carter Wood
>collectibles are quests
What kind of logic is this?
Leo Young
In the context of the game what the hell do you think they are? They're collectibles yes but when it comes down to it the grubs and relics are just large scale fetch quests/scavenger hunts that reward you with geo, some charms, and lore. The essence hunting is just more side quest (that's inexplicably tied to the main quest) shenanigans except bosses are included too.
As a side note other side quests include:
The banker
Delicate flower
Godhome in a way as hall of gods gives you hints where bosses are
Most of the roaming NPCs
The Hunter but that one's definitely a pure collectible
Mr. Mushroom
Basically what I'm saying is that we can already see how they're recontextualizing the quests in the base game and making them fit Silksong and that most of the quests in Silksong have probably already existed intheir protoforms.
Chase Wilson
Daily reminder that casuals are ruining video games.
Gavin Turner
S
Wyatt Hill
No. The grubs are collectibles, not a fetch quest.
I suppose you think energy tanks in Metroid are a fetch quest too.
Jayden White
how the fuck can almost half the people who bought the game on Steam not even have made it to Hornet 1? Do they buy it and then never play it?
like I've done with too many games for my liking
Dylan Lewis
What a dumbfuck comparison. The energy tanks are the mask fragments. They're collectible power ups that might also sometimes be behind side quests like Hollow Knight's fragments are.
Charles Ward
So if each energy tank gave you money it'd be a fetch quest?
What a retarded logic.
Hunter Thompson
I'm planning on making a cosplay with quirrel, any ideas or thoughts on this base design? It's very rough but I'm making it for PAX qest so I got some time to think about it
Jose Ward
>people defeat hornet in kingdom's edge and get the shade cloak before doing watcher knights or uummuu
WEAKNESS
Also
>about 16% of players finish the game but 22% defeat Traitor Lord who is unarguably a more difficult fight than Hollow Knight (which makes sense because he's optional and only required to do the Radiance ending)
?????
Owen Cooper
Any reason why the Nail's not included? Quirrel's design isn't too complex and the nail shouldn't be hard at all to make.
Hudson Morris
What kind of hoops are you jumping through right now? The tanks, the fragments, and the geo are the rewards themselves. This is like saying the double jump is a collectible because it's an ability that rewards you geo.
Anyway we're going off the rails now. The point is that I'm not arguing that they aren't collectibles but they're collectibles contextualized in HK as quests that span the entire game. I'm mentioning the rewards because essentially if you change say half of the grubs into other collectibles with a different NPC tied to them or half the relics even then we see what Silksong might do with its gather/hunt quests.
Noah Gomez
>This is like saying the double jump is a collectible
Have you never played a Metroidvania before?
Cooper Russell
Still haven't thought of a material for the nail yet. My friend casts aluminum and it would be cool as hell to wield a replica of his nail, the design is really solid. However, I'm qlmost certain that I would have to start lifting weights every day to realistically get into the realm of even lifting it for more than a minute. I'm a bit skeptical on what to do about it
Zachary Turner
Yeah in retrospect that statement was retarded.
Back on point though people shouldn't be too wary of Silksong's quest system because the original game already had loads of quests.
Ethan Wilson
any reason you need to lift it for more than a minute? Most of the time I assume you'd be carrying it slung across your back and you'd only unsheathe it to show off with a few crude swings.

EGS exclusive for 6-12 months
Brayden Gomez
actually, with their eyes glowing like that it almost looks like they're infected by the Radiance
Easton Gray
Nah, they said it was coming to the Switch launch day. If it ends up being Epic Games exclusive for the PC I'll extend my condolences, but I'll still be laughing.
Josiah Johnson
Alright, I just looked it up. Apparently aluminum is around 170 pounds per cubic foot. For perspective I weigh that much, and i would have to be carrying somewhere between 1 and 2 to form even a hollowed sword (no pun intended). I most likely cannot make this out of aluminum. Guess I'm going to EVA in that case
Logan Rodriguez
I'm not sure if they'd do that. They've been adamant about not having DRM in their games.
Camden Clark
These are the same devs that said they're giving Silksong for free to kickstarter backers.
Levi Morris
God bless them for it
Austin Brown
>Removed Steam Release Date – June 12, 2020 – 21:00:00 UTC (1591995600)
Joshua Diaz
I just hope for more top tier bosses like Mantis Lords or Oro and Mato.
Christian Rodriguez
You do realize they also sell a DRM-free version of Hollow Knight on their website right?
IIRC think they said they'll also provide a DRM-free version of Silksong as well when it comes out, so even if it is an EGS exclusive we can still buy the game DRM free on their own website
Lucas Flores
>Nintendo presentation where silksong is slated for next japanese fiscal year
>at most it'll be on march 2020
Levi Gray
???
Josiah Perez
I'm gonna be honest, even if they hold back the steam version, I'll be content buying it on their website. I'll literally dig up a debit card or something and buy it there.
Ian Lee
I don't know about EGS. TC aren't tied to any publishers, they're philosophy on getting the game to as much people as possible us contradictory to exclusives, and they'e mostly fine aussie cunts.
Jason Collins
We've hhad a few scares with games being EGS exclusive, even if they were promised as coming to steam+gog. Even a kickstarted one essentially screwed over its backers. So people are cautious.
Henry Sanchez
>he doesn't know
steamdb.info
Tyler Scott
If Silksong ever gets into EGS it's more likely that TC chooses to put the game in both Epic and Steam instead.
David Wilson
Well, considering that we dind't even have a solid release date, they might've pushed it back for the sake of giving them more dev time. We won't know until later in the year.
This is the best outcome.
Ayden Walker
If you rubbed infection blobs on an uninfected bug what would happen?

probably nothing, the infection seems to spread through ideas rather than germs. I mean it's not like Myla was around any other people besides you all that time and she still got infected

He made a video on The Witness, but he's not the one who made it. Jonathan Blow is the guy who made it.

Wait, but it was Jonathan Blow who was shit at Hollow Knight

No no I mean the video about the dude having trouble with the Greenpath ropes was actually Jonathan Blow himself.
Eli Cooper
Shit.
Andrew Reyes
Jesus that was painful to watch. I love how he keeps fucking up and getting hit/dying to easily avoidable hazards and constantly making a whole horde of excuses for why it's not his fault. I saw one guy in the comments who said he was a hypocrite for complaining about the vines "not being in the foreground" when his own game the Witness pulls shit like that all the time, is that true?
