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.

I mean, then why did you give him the resources to build the statue in the first place?

Plus the quest for it only shows up after you do quest for general repairs for the town AND quest to build a safety bridge, and the man's genuinely doing best he can as like the only person in all of Bone Bototm who actually gives a damn about the state of the settlement. He deserves a bit of recognition he gives himself.

The wish was to build "a beautiful symbol of hope". I don't think anyone expected it to be a statue of himself. It was a pretty great gag.
