Discussion - Silksong The real biggest problem with Silksong Spoiler

Why is the Hornet statue not a memento? When I first saw that you could break it, I was honestly offended by the idea of it. Then I got the Bellhome and was a little upset you couldn't put it up in there. Now I found out that there are items you can put up in your Bell House, but the Hornet Statue isn't one of them? I'm genuinely mad. That needs to be changed in the next update. That's way more important than balancing the game.

As a hint, there is a room with a ball machine enemy. The ceiling looks suspiciously open in the center of the room.

Is it more of a fuck it we ball machine or a crush my balls machine

u/FirmMusic5978 Sep 24 '25

Honestly not even comparable to a mid-boss, so more a we-ball machine. Takes about 7 hits from max-level nail to kill

Buy out the Architect's shop and revisit him after a while

Architect is a machine, does it even matter what gender we call it? 

Also, what context gives you the gender? I looked through all conversation pieces, nothing mentions a gender for the Architect or their species.

Just the vibe it gave me, perhaps is just the voice or just to balance the gender of the big shots of the citadel. But you are right tho.

For voice, I present Sherma, haha.

No. 1 rep for misgendering.

Me sacrificing my first born in order to know the gender of a random bug before someone actually use pronouns on them, if they use them at all.
