Anyone want to talk about the amazing Gem that is Hollow Knight?

Anyone want to talk about the amazing Gem that is Hollow Knight?

Also small question, when you get to the abandoned village with the spider nests, what does everyone you can talk to say/do when you speak to them? It had been so long since I had seen a bench I sprung the trap by mistake.

No idea.
I doubt they can say anything though, since they are puppets

>I doubt they can say anything though

Might be the case, but I thought I saw the option to listen.

They tell you they are your friends and you should sit and rest or something like that.

They talk, they all just tell you to take a rest on that bench since you look so tired. Just take a rest, it'll be nice.

That's what I expected, but I wasn't too sure.

>no insect ass in the OP
Thread was doomed from the start.

Bugs are not for lewd.

I'm still on 1.0.0.6 lads, have they fixed the frame drops yet, can't be fucked with Trial of Fools with this shit

THIS IS A SHILL THREAD DO NOT FALL FOR THE LIES

I haven't noticed any but I've not seen the patch notes to know for sure.

You caught me.

Seriously though this game is amazing.

Are you sure about that?

Yes. Bugs are cute and pure.

I wanna cuddle that moth and touch her fluff

game is amazing wish it had some kind of classes like
>pic related
ultra great swords: more range a little bit more slowly, a little bit more damage.
or dagger: faster, less damage, less rangue
:(

I don't think a moth like that is even in this game.

Heck besides Hornet and The voice of the singing beetle, nothing in this game is really shown to be attractive.

There are actual shills here do not trust anything anyone says.

Not sure if that could work. Too slow and things like the False Knight would be unbeatable.

And without the range creatures like big guys in the Spider nest couldn't be killed.

>forgetting Isaldea

Bafanada.

Ah I suppose. Haven't beaten the game though, so I've yet to see her standing proper or anything.

You visit her so infrequently that I forgot.

i mean not that slow.... more like as slow as the dark souls one
no idea, maybe youre right
im a ultragreatswordfag :(

I get what you want, but it could only work with a major balance shift per class.

Like Elder Hu for example. You couldn't beat him without speed. So they would have to change the game around quite a bit for each class.

rip
at least the basic sword changes visually every time you upgrade right?
RIGHT??!!!

Only in the menu.

>"Hey guys, lets have you run back to your corpse so you don't lose your money, JUST LIKE DARK SOULS!."

>"Hey guys, let's have zero plot and NPCs that speak nonsense, JUST LIKE DARK SOULS!"

>"Hey guys, lets have really long distance between re-spawn and bosses filled with tedious filler enemies, JUST LIKE DARK SOULS!"

This shit is getting fucking old and I love the Souls series having beaten each game on at least NG+.

I really want to love this game, but certain aspects of it just make me put the controller down and walk away because I can't be fucked dealing with it.

All actually useful NPCs are a huge distance apart that you can't be fucked back tracking to just to do one thing. This is worsened by the fact that the town stays empty the entire game except for 1 shop that sells outs and never restocks anything new.

The combat system does not support enemies having "contact damage" which just feels cheap, unintuitive and lazy.

Despite having tight jumping and air control, every other action has end lag that makes any special ability other than the projectile not worth using on any enemy that isn't one shot by them.

Continuing on from this point, because literally no enemy has hit stun (other than small knock back), trying to get the jump on enemies just results in taking a hit.

I know that the charm that gives invun frames on dashing exist, but holy shit should this not be the only way to avoid an attack your in the hit frame of. The entire time playing this game I wish I had a side step dodge or some form of block.

There's more I could go into but that feels like nit picking, believe me when I say I hate ranting this because so much of the game is great but it's just ruined by what feels like a limited tool kit.

>let's have zero plot and NPCs that speak nonsense
Did you even try to understand shit?

I killed the first dreamer (spider webs) and I guess I need to go to the mines now? Dunno, but I clearly need some ability that lets me move upward or something because that seems to be the big progression blocker for me right now. I think there might be one or two more caves that I can explore now with my lantern, guess I'll see if those are progression routes or not.
Why are you spacing your post like that?

>not visiting her every time you're in town

>I am incapable of producing coherent thoughts in the form of paragraphs: the post

So are these threads still getting moved to /vg/ by all the Zeldafag reports? So many niche threads have been getting moved for no reason lately.

>The entire time playing this game I wish I had a side step dodge or some form of block.

You do have a block. You can parry attacks by swinging your nail at the right moment.

I CAN'T, I JUST CAN'T LADS!

AAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHHHHH

The mines are super easy to get to. Lamp is all you will need. Ground Pound works too.

I do, but I don't go to town until I do something I feel is major, like getting a special item, finding an NPC, or beating what feels like a boss.

I hope not. Just want to talk about this game in peace. It's been a ton of fun.

> I wish I had a side step dodge

Isn't that the first item you get?

>Why are you spacing your post like that?

I was listing points, so the spacing makes it easier to read. It's just coincidence the whole thing turned out spaced.

Yes you can, user. I believe in you.

Oh I know, I already opened up the area with groundpound. Just wondering if that is indeed progression or optional. I dicked around a bit there and found that big chasm. Thought I could clear it with a mid-air dash and instead fell all the to the fucking graveyard and called it for the day.

How do I get to Cornifer in the royal waterway? I can't get into his room through the fungal wastes because the pipe is covered up, and I can't get in through the waterway itself because the path is blocked by a lever gate. Or is it one of those "gate opens once you've killed every enemy in the room" things?

The game has some nice attention to detail.

this is too obvious shilling I can't deposit that penny inito your account if you shill this badly

>gate opens once you've killed every enemy in the room

yeah it's literally that

Pretty sure a major area isn't going to be optional.

Considering you know about the Dreamers you should be able to see one of them is up there.

You could just join us and talk about the game?

how much is the pay?

But there's no reward from doing it, You would of been better just keeping your distance. If anything it's more punishing because a parry inflicts no damage and still displaces you.

A guaranteed (you) per thread. Possibly more if you shill real good.

Game's so good We do it for free

Does it still displace you if you have the charm that prevents knockback from attacking? I never bothered to equip it.

seems like a scam I only shill for money

>If anything it's more punishing because a parry inflicts no damage

Parry can still hit.

Soul Master has the best battle music. Prove me wrong.

You can't.

This game is comfy
Post comfy screens

Will you accept bug butts?

If you didn't parry at that moment, you would've gotten damaged. That's the reward you get out of it. Not to mention it allows you to bounce on some bosses, like Hornet #2.

You might be right, but I'd argue the music is great almost all around.

Where is the shroom NPC that has something to do with the secret ending again?

...

I made this one my wallpaper.

Iselda playable character DLC when?

I'm stealing it.

If they went the shovel Knight rout and let you play as different characters I'd class this as GOTY right now.

Ever since I got the Dream Nail this game has gotten a lot more depressing. I don't think I'll have the heart to use it on enemies soon enough, I'll be better off not knowing.

It's all yours my friend.

What do you get once you defeat Hornet for the second time? Is it that thing that blocks you out of the first ending?

You're not locked out of the first ending until you get the void heart

Yeah I'm not through the game yet, so I'm behind on the story.

But from what I'm gathering the gasses and crystals are fucking with there minds. Given enough time it will corrupt you.

But for some reason you don't need to breath/smell so the gasses won't effect you.

I'm gonna guess you're playing as the chosen unbug.

They're working on a Hornet DLC user.

Well, we're getting at least one more playable character.

I know it's supposed to be released on Mac eventually, but anyone hear of a date?

Tempted to get it anyway and just use Wine to play, but worried about lag spikes. Anyone tried this yet?

That sounds perfect.

Fucking really man? You're not just fucking with me?

Is it going to be playable in full with her? Or just a special DLC area?

Shit looks delicious.
Tell me more, I don't want to fuck myself over.

>Thank you all very much for your support! Our next goals are to release a beta Mac version this week for testing, as well as implementing different languages (starting with French).

From the latest patch notes.

Yeah that one I don't know if it's a drop or whatever you get after a boss.

>Oh I must have missed that!
Awesome, I'll have to look into how to get a beta key. Watched Getto's no damage boss run last night and got hyped as shit for the game, only to find I had no way of playing it.
Thanks bunches, user.

They've shown a bunch of content in Kickstarter updates and trailers that's not in the final game, so I suspect she'll have her own areas.

youtube.com/watch?v=iS-v4NMQkBg

You get the void heart at the bottom of the abyss, when you unlock a hole on the ground. Just kill the final boss when it's unlocked and you should be fine.

These both look fucking terrible. Glad it came together in the final game.

Ah never realized this game was on Kick starter.

Thanks.

Unfortunate that it's her areas only. But it should be plenty of fun.

Pls respond

Dunno, but Hornet DLC it is, and another is supposedly going out too. Probably Zote

Man, this game.

Probably Zote

Hmm, less thrilled about him. But still very excited.

I think the furthest bench to boss is the Collector, and he's still not very far.

Protip: it's easier to get the timing right if you walk instead of dashing.

Personally, i hope it will be a pacifist run, since he's too weak to beat anything

Equip the hiveblood user.

Thread is in dire need of bug butts

Can bugs sweat?

I don't think so, but there's probably some weirdass insect out there that's the exception.

Am I retarded or is the only important thing I can do in Crystal peak getting superdash?
Shoudl I just keep going and explore deepnest or the waterway?

>tfw the final boss doesn't count as 1%.
Fuck. I have no clue what I've to do to find the last %.

>game just bugged out
damnit
Just got the dream wielder charm, went to the menu to check what it does, game is stuck in an empty menu screen.

The same thing happened to me when I got it. Hope you sat on the stagway bench, else you've got some backtracking to do.

The store key that unlock more items in the shop is here too. Along with numerous grubs, and parts.

yeah, I sat down before I went to her.

but hey, new patch is out apparently. thanks bug.
