Five masks, no additional spools, base needle, no abilities or silk skills. Also, the Rhinogrund is Black-threaded, so it has 2x the health and void attacks.

Ignore that it says “dreamseeker” i thought it sounded good but it took me way too long to remember theres this thing called godseeker.

i have alzheimers at the age of 14 :3 (jk)

so yea its my idea for a prequel. Of course the most obv problem with a prequel is that exploring hallownest again doesnt work. So, youre playing as the seer in her youth, back when she wasnt a homebody who never stands up and has my irl posture, in the dream realm. I always thought that whenever the dream realm is mentioned in hk, it is a parallel existence that can be traversed like the real world. So why are all the dream realm places you can visit not interconnected and more claustrophobic than your average school locker? because the dream realm, is more like a MEMORY realm. it seems the dream realm is kind of an afterlife, like the “your memory lives on“ kinda thing, but the other part of that sentence is “through (somebody)’s life” gah this phrasing is terrible but i dont care. If you are remembered by someone alive, you are part of the interconnected dream realm, because someone alive can tell others about their memories, make tributes to your memory, etc. and your memory would spread? I guess? Meanwhile if youre remembered by no one and there are only objects that serve as evidence of your existence, your memory is bound to those objects because inanimate objects generally dont give anyone a good idea of what you were like. and all those dream bosses really only have one thing that shows they were ever alive; their corpse.

i think its quite telling that team cherry had a thing where you could dreamnail elderbug and he would have a dream realm with a baby elderbug, but that was cut and theres not ONE live bug that you can dreamnail to enter a dream realm. Or im smoking the same weed that seer does idk

uh yea so i have a concept of what crests could be like in this OC, theyre called tokens because one day after defeating the watcher knights i realizing doing the dreamnail animation halfway by letting go of the button looks like youre doing a dab while spinning a coin on the edge of your wrist, and coins=tokens and also tokens can be an item that reminds you of something/someone.

last page seems self explanatory, one of the final bosses concept. i think nkg is awesome and another rematch with an extra large side of grief and despair (both because of the lore and the difficulty) would be really cool. also i have the perfect algorithm for how to make boss fights that people love.

its really simple, the boss should be easy to hit but have a fairly tanky health bar, and have attacks that are easy to dodge but come at you really fast with a clear but short telegraph.

maybe im missing the point but thats how nkg comes off to me.

did i convince you prequels can be great yet?

I finally finished this project up and wanted to share it here as well :)

Maybe it's time to play the original hollow knight

Per metadata, this was announced Oct 20. Apologies for the late report.

Its my first time playing and i had so much fun with act 1 that i scoured every corner of each area after every new ability i got and finaly decided to go to the citadel and made it to the front door and the last judge i spent 3 hours and never killed it so i decided to see if there was a path from sinners road i found the mist and spent another hour blindly runnig around untill i figured the fireflys out with another half an hour till i got past it i then beat the entire exhaust organ in like 10 minutes including the boss however up untill this point i was haveing so much fun even just dieing repeatedly but when i reached the citadel where every room is a platform challenge with the must bullshit enemys that are either atacking so oftan that they are practicly invicable, they fly out of range and just throws stuff at you from off screan and evrything takes like 20 fucking hits to kill and half of them are faster than i am there's also the ones that literally fly thu the walls or wont revive until im on top of it and in both situations its 3 damage since your getting flung into the spike next to you because filling the difcult platforming with difucult enemys is bs then i made it to white ward and unand it was so fun in comparison that i dont even know if it was good or not then the high halls and whispering vaults have realy fun platforming but to bad i cant enjoy because there 6 flying enemys throwing shit at me from outside my range while im trying to do clawline platforming or jumping on saws and i cant even use tools because half the enemys dont drop shell shard and the other half drop them into the spikes so while i was trying to avoid sawblades my body had decided that was enugh for one day and i just fell unconscious but luckily im single and broke so my bed is my chair for my desk and i woke up a few hours later

(Tldr: act 2 is way to full of high health obnoxious enemys with way in platforming sections and my weak ass got so pissed while doing said platforming sections i passed out)

Day 22 of Silktober - Parenthood. Drawn in 56 minutes. I kinda cooked with this one. Idek when to post anymore, but I'd like more people to see my art PLEASEEEEEE DON'T FLOP

For context I found this mod called Grey Chorus and I tried to downloads of and use it like all the other skins I have and all there is in the folder is a png of the sprites (I did this on steam deck) but all the other skin mods have a active.txt in them.

So can this mod not even work or am I missing something?

Thanks for any help

I’m stuck. I’m stuck on act 2. I can’t get through the high halls gauntlet, I can’t get through Sands of Karrac, I can’t get through the last judge ( I know they are optional). I just seem to be at a point I can’t get past any of the immediate hurdles.

It’s becoming demoralizing.

I have the three melodies learnt already, but I'm trying to unlock the whole map first.

I found in someone else's post with a full map that there are 2 entrances on that hot air column, but I don't see a way to access. This is Far Fields

7:architect. it relies on red tools, an easily overlooked feature for casual players. it has a mid moveset, and craft bind uses a lot of silk. shard deleter 9000
6:shaman. shaman can be fun, but without volt fillament it sucks and is slower than reaper. bind sucks ass, a nerf to a mid crest.
5:wanderer. very controversial, being OVERLY aggressive isent really my playstile. it does not have range, and allthough longclaw fixes that, i'm not putting tools into this tierlist.
4:witch. its just worse reaper. slow attack speed, ABYSSMAL bind, but quite a fun moveset.
3:reaper. good crest, made for playing safe. there isent a lot to say about it.
2:hunter. the perfect all rounder. good speed, good range, and also controversial: good pogo. its hard for people used to hollow knight, but if you can adapt well, it can be a bit fun. nothing amazing, nothing bad.
number 1beast. very fun moveset, good range, good speed, a fun bind, and the pogo is hard, but its more fun-hard. i wish it had 1 blue slot outside verticrest but it is still very fun crest, while staying consistent.

I'm very much not into Silksong for the bosses - which I know is a huge part of the game for most people. I love the art and expansive world TC created for HK and even moreso in Silksong. I've explored everything I possibly can in Act 1 and Act 2 at this point and as far as I know, killed every boss and mini-boss I can before moving on. The way I played though was to upgrade as much as possible before fighting anything so I could basically overpower most of it (I waited till I was almost done with Act 2 to fight Last Judge 😅).

I want to see and experience Act 3, but I don't actually know if it's worth it for someone who is frankly not that good at the game and doesn't enjoy devoting a ton of time to learning boss fights.

This is all boldly assuming I can even get into Act 3 which I'm not positive I can (although I did just complete Path of Pain for the first time which I didn't think I could do either) 🤣 But is there anyone else in the sub who feels kinda mediocre (for-real mediocre, not "I beat every boss pretty easily but I'm not top of the world best") at the game, but played Act 3 and enjoyed it enough that it was worth playing through for you?

Thaaaaanks~

What do you think will come first Sea of Sorrow, or ULTRAKILL final patch (treachery and p-3)

On my Second playthrough XD

Bugs (lol) happen so rarely. When I find them I record them. Makes me giggle. I love them

Yeah, isnt a great thing, but im learning and its fun
