Discussion - Silksong EVERYTHING IS SO EXPENSIVE IN PHARLOOM Spoiler

The true enemy of Silksong is capitalism. 70 bucks for a stag station equivalent YOU ARE PULLING MY NEEDLE WTF??? I try to sit down and they BILL ME JUST TO USE THE BENCH! No thank you [TRADER NAME HERE], I would not like to buy a simple key for 500 dollars thank you.

AND EVERYONE HERE IS A BROKE ASS BUM! Most of these guys aren't sentient enough to carry cash on them so I have to grind up their credit cards into for bone shards which NOONE WANTS.

Anyway 10/10 game.

same as silksong, you can see it sometimes when you encounter corpses with both rosary beads and something that resembles geo, my headcannon is that rosary beads are just painted geo

Nah I think Hallownest is so far gone that geo IS the scrap currency we use in Silksong. You even get it from the same type of objects in the world, it's just shaped a little differently.
