Ambivalent posted:I mean just about everyone's presence is subdued, since there's very little direct exposition, and you rarely interact directly with just about anyone - even the ones you do talk to, few but the Moth and Hornet directly tell you 'hey, this is what's up.' All the dreamers have enough stuff around them, and in their snippets of text, that you can sort of get an implication of their situation and what would have driven them to sacrifice themselves. Spelling it out anymore would be sort of heavy-handed, I think. To detail Herrah further, the child that the bargain was made to create was Hornet.

Internet Kraken posted:Look when I heard the name Herrah THE BEAST I wanted to get a really awesome boss fight out of them. The stalker devouts being the toughest enemies in the game only made me want that fight even more. stalking devouts aren't tough, they're just tedious when they're in narrow corridors

Only time I can suggest it is the Flower quest for being extra super safe if you want Those "baby tickling slashes" scale with your nail damage. Half your standard attack damage at range is nothing to sniff at.

Roadie posted:I've gotten into this game lately, and while I love most of it, gently caress whoever decided to make "having an indicator on the map takes an upgrade slot" be a thing. I can understand having a problem with the compass, but having to find Cornifer is great because it means you have to rely on your own sense of direction for a bit.

Irony.or.Death posted:I know I'm late to the party, but this game is way bigger than I was expecting it to be. This is, like, the third night in a row where I figured I'd just play a quick half hour or so to go check out one of the little crannies I'd passed by earlier/didn't have the ability I needed to reach and ended up falling into a giant pit or something and wandering through three new areas. Two hours later I have located a new station and returned to town with absolutely no progress made in the direction I thought I was going to be heading next. Hollow Knight more than any other metroidvania has absolutely nailed the sense of getting lost in a vast and intriguing world. I felt like a kindred spirit.with Cornifer when I played.

OzFactor posted:I have bought everything there is to buy... is there anything I can do with all this Geo? I already got the vessel fragment from the fountain. When you summon the Grimm Troupe there will be an NPC who exists primarily as a geo sinkhole. Divine turns your Fragile charms into Unbreakable charms for 9/12/15k respectively for Greed/Heart/Strength And yeah I'm pretty sure the essence costs are tuned around needing to do at least one dream boss. If you're at 1200, that means you're definitely missing at least one warrior dream though. edit: Have you got the Shadow Dash? One of the dream warriors requires that lategame upgrade to get to.

(for reference, my most recent power up is the double jump, and I have been tasked with fighting the 3 dreamers) 1) An NPC is Dirtmouth will summon your shade for one rancid egg. It's the lady in the locked cave on the far right. 2) My best guess is that's your Dreamgate if you've found it. Can you take a screenshot?

Pigbuster posted:I think I found regular White Palace more frustrating than Path of Pain solely because of that drat spear hallway. Bretta only leaves if you've defeated Grey Prince Zote enough to turn her statue gold and disillusion her about him. It also gives a new chapter of her fanfiction diary.

Failed Champion is definitely the hardest of the base game's dream refights unless you use the special cheese tactic. Do not read this unless you want to ruin a fun boss fight. Quickslash, Fragile Strength, Joni's Blessing and as much blue health as you can cram on your charm bar. Don't bother with dodging or anything, just dps race him.

Radiance is everything I could want in a final boss fight. She is difficult, got a cool varied moveset, fantastic music, a great look and the general atmosphere of the fight is fantastic especially with the end when you feed her to the void. As for the ghosts, I imagine that they're not actual ghosts, they're just remaining impressions. They're never referred to as spirits, only as dreams. "Linger dream of a fallen warrior", etc. On the other hand, if they are actual ghosts, then you are murdering them for no reason. You never need the 1 point of essence that comes from eating a non-boss ghost. Also before you close off the game I recommend going to the Howling Cliffs and looking around. Specifically, a breakable wall on the right a few screen-lengths beneath Cornifer. SirSamVimes fucked around with this message at 06:37 on Dec 19, 2017 |
