HOLLOW KNIGHT

This is a fantastic game. I bought it 3 times just because I realized it was worth that much after playing for 12 hours. If this thread takes off, please use spoilers where applicable.

I have a question: where are all the uses for the awoken dream nail? I already used it to gain entrance to the White Palace and to hit the face of the giant bug that gives you the shade cloak in The Abyss. Am I missing anywhere major?

Sup Forumsiral marketing

Fuck off shill

Fuck off shill

...

Hey Matt Griffin, how are you doing? When is the Switch release?

Shills can fuck off

Haven't played a Metroidvania in a decade. Is this shit actually good or is this another FOTM meme game?

Do I need to remake the thread and exclude my purchase history or something? At least you Sup Forums/goobergate/ retards don't know sage exists, so thanks for the bumps.

Unironically why does v shill this game so hard?

You can hit most people and various entities in the world and it'll give you a little background on their internal dialogue. There's also a 3rd spot you need to use it for the 100% ending

sage goes in all fields
fuck off shill

Saged

>I bought it 3 times
sorry but you literally sound like someone todd posting only this isn't satirical

Since you bought it three times, you can surely gift other people a copy

>it's pol even though that has nothing to do with shills

Why does Sup Forums "shill" Persona and 20fpsborne? Or do you not consider that shilling because you like those games?
No, I know that. I'm wondering if there are any other places where the awoken dream nail works besides the white palace and abyss bug with the cup
>sage goes in all fields
But your namefield does not contain sage. Either way, enjoy the ban.
How is this /any/ different than consolefags buying multiple copies of games they like? I've been fucking pining for GOOD metroidvanias for a very long time now, and this one really hit the spot.

...

It's shilling but they have the cover of being popular and also not starting the thread off by saying people should pay triple for their game

>20fpsborne

I like you. Still a shill.

Nobody cares about this game until it comes out for the Switch, back off shill

>should pay triple for their game
Where did I say those words? I don't think anyone SHOULD pay anything for a game they don't like, but I did like this game.
>it's shilling
Do you spam their threads with this shit too?

holy fuck guys I like the game too, but why does every thread look like viral marketing?

Quit whining because you got caught, people call out shills all the time. Next time don't be so blatant.

mfw the Team Cherry marketing team got caught and started baiting people to bump their topic

consolefags hardly ever say "I BOUGHT THE GAME THIS MANY TIMES" and when they do they get called a shill

Because that's what it is. Maybe the devs should grow the game's popularity by releasing it for consoles already instead of spamming anonymous image boards.

abyss bug with the cup? do you mean the egg at the bottom of the abyss? you need that for void soul

>people call out shills all the time
No, Sup Forums and 8gag/v/ subhumans call out anything and everything as "shilling." This shit didn't happen 5 years ago.
>consolefags hardly ever say
Hello newfag.
>Because that's what it is.
No, it's a bunch of mongoloid retards spamming "SHILL SHILL SHILL" at anything and everything. Just like Sup Forums spams "KEK KEK KEK" at anything and everything.

Considering you replied, I'm assuming you actually are Matt Griffin.
When's the Switch version bro???
I want to shill for you.

>replying to yourself with a question to bump the thread

>do you mean
No, I mean the bug I said. Let me go take a picture, but give me a minute because I'm by The Beast Den right now.

...

This is how Sup Forums works user, if X is popular it gets posted a bunch; then to balance out the force a bunch of shit posters declare it overrated and shit on it. No one is allowed to rise out of the shit that is Sup Forums

>This shit didn't happen 5 years ago
It became a necessity after Borderlands. And because of shit like OP.

Holy shit you proved me right the fucking madman

No idea, I like it and the threads can be fun, but it's not a masterpiece or anything,

Because you have to see something 11 times before you want to buy it.

that's not what i mean, there's a bunch of popular games around but it's specifically the hollow knight threads that all start similarly and sound like viralling

What's up with all these fucking shills lately

This is the bug I mean. You can hit him with the dream nail, but you can't get anything until you awaken it. It gives you that same shielded animation the thing in the palace ruins from ancient basin does. This is what happens you do hit it with with the awakened one. Are there any other spots like this?
>right
How?

>tons of AAA games threads
>silence
>indie game thread
>shills-shills!
They are probably shilling, yeah. But that doesn't mean everyone else doesn't.
Shillposting is retarded, you can't prove anything and it doesn't contribute to discussion in any way. Might as well scream "Shills!" in every thread.
Remember, shills are only effective if you are buying games.

see

Game is shit

that's bullshit, i got this when we had comfy threads exploring the game earlier and not have these cringeworthy threads

Kek

Any chances the Zero Punctuation guy will ever review this? It looks like a game he'd enjoy.

Nice try shill. I bet you also shilling Night in the dumpster

2/10 bait apply yourself
>you also shilling Night in the dumpster
I only watched SBH video about it. 2bh there is a small chance I would have liked it, but probably not.

Out of the ones that have come out recently, I'd put it behind Axiom Verge and above AM2R, but otherwise it's one of the better ones I've played. There is a lot of superfluous bullshit though. Especially for a game that is so clearly using Super Metroid as its main source of inspiration.

If you equip the kingsoul and goto the bottom of the abyss, in the big room you can unlock another small area where you use the dream nail, it is required to 100% besides that everything else you use it on is just lore

> This is a fantastic game. I bought it 3 times just because I realized it was worth that much after playing for 12 hours.

Mind buying me a copy too?

>Axiom Verge
>above AM2R and HK
Did you like visuals that much? Because gameplay-wise AV is mediocre.
I didn't hate it, but it's not that great.

No, I know that. I have the Void Heart already. I was wondering if there were any other places the Dream Nail works ONLY after give the Witch 1800 Essence and she "awakens" the Dream Nail.
>Did you like visuals that much?
No. It was mostly the story. Axiom Verge was something relatively new, whereas HK is basically the story of one game merged with the gameplay of another. I'll agree that AV is behind both of those games in gameplay.
AM2R was just loaded with bullshit. Still good, but way too much artificial difficulty.

It's legit a solid metroidvania that will be remembered among the other great games of the genre.

>among the other great games of the genre

such as?

Also, does anyone else think the sound of this fat cunt is more annoying than anything else in the entire game?

How long till all the content's out for this game? Supposedly there's a lot of planned DLC?

>AM2R was just loaded with bullshit. Still good, but way too much artificial difficulty.
I don't know, I can't remember any bullshit except surprise bosses, but they aren't that hard. The only thing I didn't like about it is the same metroid fights everywhere, little variety. Levels were great though.

>The only thing I didn't like about it is the same metroid fights everywhere, little variety.
There was that, but there was also a lot bullshit fights like 2 gamma metroids in a small room. It's possible I just suck ass at killing those, though.
There is supposed to be a DLC making pic related a playable character. Apparently that glyph in the secret room in weaver's den behind all the broken walls supports this heavily, but I don't really see how.

bumping just to show others what kinds of shills advertise horrible indieshit these days

It's pretty lucky that its basically a buff for post game only because its a shit

1. tons of people want to post about an AAA game
2. some random piece of shit indie game no one but three give a fuck about, which is why you can't go to /vg/ because your threads die without people telling you to go back to /vg/ instead of shilling

there's a few autismos, hence why this is always samfeg the thread

because all triple A threads are maintained by everyone while these threads are maintained by like 5 people who are genuinely autistic

is this satire?

I'm pretty sure last week you played the shit out of it by watching a let's play of it.

No.
Also no.
>some random piece of shit indie game no one but three give a fuck about,
People have been posting about this game on a regular basis since it came out. That's the only reason I ended up playing it, actually. The real indieshit metroidvania game I'm waiting for, GhostSong, is taking forever.

threadly reminder that these are the kinds of people who shill this game

people are complaining because the same three autismos make multiple advertisement threads daily. Their threads die on /vg/ because they got no people bumping their threads complaining about them shilling, but yes, these threads are samefag advertising

these threads are always made by the same retard, you can tell because he always spoilers random strings of words in the OP

another reminder

>these threads are samefag advertising
There's no way to prove you to that I'm not "shilling," so what the fuck are the points of these posts? 90% of the people from the beginning didn't know how to or weren't saging, so they're just giving the "shill" free advertisement on the thread. You are making an unfalsifiable claim that is essentially spam. If you don't like the game or the "shills' simply add /hollow knight/i to your filter, like I have done with "shill."
>spoilers random strings of words
That words I spoilered were actually spoilers from the game. You would know this if you played it instead of shitposting in a thread you don't like because you're too fucking stupid to use a filter.
>MUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHH SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIL
Reminder that every single post you make, saged or not, allows me, the OP, to bump the thread again. Either contribute to the thread or fuck off, because I won't let it die while you're giving me the ability to bump it.

mad as fuk lmao

I'm just pointing it out so people who read these threads will be in the know

>filters
back to your r/eddit safespace

But do you have any proof that the people posting the threads are "paid advertisement"? In nearly all cases where that has been exposed, the OP uses the same image, same filename, and almost the exact same OP every single time. Did my post match anything in the archives?

Thanks for the bump, by the way.

what the fuck is wrong with you

>75 posts
>22 posters

at least 10 of these posts are by single posters, huge amount of samefagging, reading the archive you see how everything reads like a fucking commercial

I'll dig the archives and put together a nice picture demonstrating the samefaggery of these threads

Instead of reporting things I don't like, I hide them so I don't have to see them. Why don't you do the same?
>at least 10 of these posts are by single posters
Yes, me, because I keep responding to your spam posts. That doesn't change the fact that you are complaining about VIDEOGAME DISCUSSION on the VIDEOGAMES board because of some imaginary /x/-tier narrative you have devised. Hide Hollow Knight threads or just fuck off, please. What do you possibly gain from doing this? Even if the thread gets pruned, I will simply make it again, but this time I'll leave out the bit about me buying it.
It's funny that you mouthbreathers whine about safespaces when you actively campaign for one (just like Sup Forums does by spamming "slide threads") by doing this shit to anything you don't like, but never to BLACKED or blatant porn spam.

no at least 10 of these posters posted just once you fucking newfag retard

Oh, so you're doing the thing Sup Forums does where they say ">1 post by this ID" except in reverse.

Thanks for the bump, again.

variation reminder
this one is a classic used in the hollow knight threads, the we talk about video games narrative

Sad shilling. Glad this game was a blunder lol

yes

the 80 posts in this thread are by 10 posters or so

There is absolutely nothing I can do to help the retarded, it seems. Please continue spamming so I can continue bumping. Maybe the janitors will wake up and delete your spam soon.

Bump

I really want to like this, I've tried playing it multiple times but I fucking hate it.

>it's a newfag thinks OP can bump his own thread on Sup Forums thread
i lol'd

Why don't you like it? Do you normally like this kind of game?

You can if someone else replies to you.

it's not spam you are spamming

>you are spamming
By making my first thread about HK?

...

didn't even include half of this shit, I'll probably update when I have nothing better to do

Except all of those posts mention GOTY or 10/10. All I said was that I bought the game 3 times because I liked it that much.

I don't care about your OP, though it's todd/10

what I'm showing is that there's some systematic samefag advertising going on

I wanna play as Hornet and that third secret character. Zote might be cool

How does that relate to my thread? Why did you spam my thread with unrelated garbage if you obviously did not believe it to be part of the "shilling" you seem to think is happening? All I wanted to do was talk about the fucking dream nail.
