Seems like the actual Hollow Knight thread has become a withered husk, while this, the Silksong thread... has become infected...

Team Cherry and Hollow Knight were in the closet making sequels and I saw one of the sequels and the sequel looked at me!

So there's gonna be a copy of the game inside the magazine, right?

You should try Bugsnax, it might scratch that bug itch (note: don't scratch bug itches)

I take it there was a huge glut of info about Silksong including a potential release window and no-one is posting about it because they're still too busy picking their jaws off the floor.
The game was actually contained entirely inside the Nintendo Direct. Everyone was able to play it only during those 50 minutes and now it is gone forever.

Still game of the decade though.

Silksong is going to release on a new console that is actually a terrarium full of real bugs.

I heard if you kill 1000 Zotes in the Eternal Ordeal you'll unlock Silksong

guys I'm starting to think maybe this thread was made a little bit too soon
Yeah I mean, I respect Early Access and everything but there are just way too many bugs at this point.

So about those scans, they aren't great quality, being phone screenshots but they're certainly readable.


I did ask one of the mods before posting this, it should be okay
After perusing these scans I've decided it would be cool if Silksong comes out.

Every time someone posts in this thread thinking it's the main HK thread, Silksong gets delayed another month.

But this link helps: https://hollowknight.fandom.com/wiki/Dream_Nail

If you don't wanna get spoiled, tl;dr there should still be way more than enough essence, so you've probably missed a couple bosses. Worst case you can get rare essence drops from normal enemies but it really shouldn't be necessary.

I mean seriously though, did you use the Dreamgate like 800 times? Or do you just not want to get spoiled on what bosses you probably missed.

Wait are we talking about the Unbreakable versions of Strength, Heart, and Greed?

'Cause uhhh I'd say only go for those for the sake of completionism if you want. Like, they are absolutely the very last thing I would ever spend Geo on.

Well good job dude! I figured by "it really isn't a game for me" you'd mean you were getting your face stomped over and over for the first hour but you're extremely good at it for a first timer. Having a buddy there to decide exactly how much to tell you is a pretty cool format for a blind LP.

The weirdest thing is how they pivoted from the style of hollow knight to a 3rd person on rails shooter. Kind of weird, but I guess it makes sense that it's taking so long.
Like Killer7? It's really the obvious choice when you think about it, gamers just wanna complain

I mean yeah, the main inference from that tweet is that it's nowhere close to finished (which is fine btw) because they said they're looking forward to sharing more info when it's close to being finished. They haven't shared any info, ergo, it isn't close to being finished.

It's nice to know for sure now though.
Actually it says "closer," not "close"

Only 1 year and 5 months since the Edge magazine article.

Can't remember if anything weird happened during that time that might have messed with development.

No I meant Cactus, the person who has been melting down for 3 years straight about this game. Around that time Team Cherry also said they were excited to share more info when it was "closer to release" and that turned into "the game isn't even close to done"

Melting down lol. They said they'd have more to say when it was close to being finished. That means it isn't close, which I was just happy to have some confirmation of. That's it.
No, they said "closer."

You can go to those godawful youtube shorts and just replace the "short" in the url with "watch" to make them not be as garbage anymore: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRpWCZxQbu0
