I think they announced the game too soon, but maybe they didn't have a choice since they still owed backers hornet dlc. I guess they could have said "we are working on a full sequel instead which you'll get for free." It takes a long time to make games and I can't imagine they were very far in the process in February 2019.

I hope we get more news soon. This is probably my most anticipated game right now.

Good news: it's coming out tomorrow.

Guys, the game is taking so long because Team Cherry is working closely with Sakurai to make the Knight the next playable character along with a Hornet Assist Trophy. My uncle at Nintendo told me.

It's not taking that long. It's closer to coming out than Christmas is (tomorrow vs. December 25th)

I just started playing Hollow Knight and have fallen in love. Beautiful game and atmosphere.
I'm hoping one of you can let me know if I've missed anything important so far, because I really don't want to stumble on any spoilers.

So far, I've beaten the False Knight and Hornet bosses. I've poked around as much of Greenpath and Forgotten Crossroads as I think I can get to, and I've started exploring the Fog Canyon and Fungal Wastes.

I've gotten the Moth Cape to let me air dash, but judging from the geography, there's got to be a double jump / wall jump item out there somewhere. I've picked up a Charm to give me extra reach with my Nail, but I haven't found anything to boost my actual damage yet.

I've found some NPCs too, and a few shops have opened back in town. I also picked up the Hunter notebook, and started working on that. Have I missed anything important so far? I just don't want to find out that there was a Nail upgrade or something that I've skated past, and I'm making things harder for myself.

The combat has been really enjoyable. A few enemies have given me a hard time, but with some patience, I can figure out cues to watch for, and then it's pretty smooth sailing.

Keep posting your thoughts. Newbies experiencing a game for the first time FTMFW

I just finished the White Palace on my second play through and it wasn’t nearly as bad as I remembered. The hallway with the spikes alternating from the ceiling and floor made me angry but the rest actually went super smoothly.

Now I just have the flower quest, King Grimm, and the Trial of the Fool, then I’ll check be done with everything in the base game and ready to check out Godhome, which wasn’t out during my initial play through!

Grimm wasn't in the game at launch. Also, you do need to do Path of Pain.

The worst moment was dropping into the final room and realizing that if I beefed it to these enemies then I wouldn't respawn back at the checkpoint.

I am really in love with the whole art design of this game. I love the look of the areas, right from how Dirtmouth feels old and abandoned when you arrive. The little sounds that each character makes really gives them each personality. I keep catching myself humming the song the Miner sings while chipping away at the stone. The anxious, sad mumbling that the grubs make when they're trapped almost sounds like they're saying "why me?"

Anyway, made a ton of progress. Picked up a couple of items to open up new areas for exploration; a double jump item, and a drop of amber or something that lets me swim in acid. I loved running into the dung beetle that looked like a Luchador. Oh, and I did something to trigger an infection of orange stuff all over the Forgotten Crossroads, so that place is a hot mess now.

Does that Charm from the dung beetle do anything else besides make me smell bad?

Do the Charms with similar effects stack? For Nail reach, Soul build, etc.

Yes, yes.

Edit: I booted up Hollow Knight this afternoon while I was waiting for Red Dead Redemption 2 to update, just to kill time. I had a save file where I'd Beelined through Deepnest to get the tram pass so I loaded it up and started playing. I decided to put dashmaster on for speed and go get the dream nail. Suddenly everytime I dashed I got this weird rocket-bang noise. I puzzled about this for a bit and wondered about for a bit, bang-dashing around.

Lol

And now I’m sad because I’m pretty sure it will never happen.

completionism is a disease. Hollow Knight's difficulty curve is designed such that 99.9% of players will eventually reach their limit before exhausting the game, and that rules. i'll probably never beat Pantheon 5 but it's rad as poo poo that it's there if i want to try and perfect my play.

Actually you have to no hit it before you beat it with all bindings to make it glow a special way to perfect the game.
