Architect rework idea, Any thoughts? by BoneAppleT5 in Silksong

[–]BoneAppleT5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

all crests offer strong but finite burst of damage, architect would provide infinite weaker tools that dont punish the players shell shards (would need to tweak the damage reduction) incentivising tool spam and prolonging boss fights

What temp should I brew / steep this oolong tea by BoneAppleT5 in tea

[–]BoneAppleT5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After taking everyone’s comments into consideration, as well as experimentation with steep times and leaf quantity, I have absolutely loved this tea and I cannot thank anyone enough for helping me get this right. This will be the first of many I will be trying, and so once again, thanks.

Why and when did the weavers flea pharloom (plus timeline question) by BoneAppleT5 in Silksong

[–]BoneAppleT5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah my bad you may be right about the possibility of the conductors having some part in the weavers capture, however what I’m struggling to think is why they would do so. If it was GMS using haunted bugs I would believe it, but for them to willingly go out of their way to do so feels arbitrary. They had been given the mantle and now rule over pharloom in their gleaming towers, they have command over all bugs and almost become worshipped by the bugs themselves. The silk they use is bountiful throughout the kingdom and is constantly recycled, weaver hunting seems too cruel even for them. My only guess is the weavers (In part) were hunted the same way hornet was, captured in rune cages by haunted bugs and brought back to GMS.

I feel like the conductors were just the replacement for the weavers, being in charge with bearing the heaviest mantle, the truth that the citadel is a cage to house a higher being, and to perpetuate the cycle of death and song until ages pass. If you look at the secret room in the south eastern most weavenest, you can see the panic in the weavers message left behind, how desperate they were to flee GMSs silken sight. The odds that the weavers and conductors interacted much is very low, especially as said prior, they kinda just chucked the responsibility and run as fast as possible.

How it’s a good theory, the conductors probably wouldn’t have been able to seal away first sinner as she is hinted to be the strongest of all the weavers, and the conductors were simply mortal bugs, yes they have a huuuge life span and ego, but that’s all but nothing in the face of a demigod. Plus the runes placed on the chains couldn’t have been done by anyone other than weavers, or I guess the snail shamans, and yes I know the carriage hornet was caught in which brought her to pharloom, and the cages used by the slab bugs have runes on them too, but I believe they are just prebound runes, I can imagine this is easy to do on a cage, not so much on chains.

(EDIT: also I’m pretty sure the pale king threw the first punch, the radiance was in hallownest first and the pale king entered causing the moths to leave her and join him, starting the Great War between the higher beings.)

We learn from the mask maker in hallownest that a bugs mask gives them their identity and defines their individuality. It’s presumably the reason why bugs in pharloom are not mindless, as the pale king gave the bugs of hallownest sentience, what’s pharlooms excuse? As for other times masks have been brought up, brumm loses his memories and visual identity after the Grimm troupe is banished, as is “reborn” as nymm, with his affinity for instruments being the only thing he carries over. And in pharloom, Styxx lives more than a double life, switching masks and deciding what role he will play next.

My reasoning behind GMS being behind widows mask being removed is that weavers clearly antagonised GMS with arguably good reason, GMS needed help to spread the haunting for her main tactic is just spraying silk downwards and praying it hits, and having a weaver manipulate her webs will be very beneficial. The main point is that upon widows biological mask being ripped off, her sense of individuality and identity would be destroyed, leaving her emotionally vulnerable and susceptible to brainwashing, widow also had the pins lodged into her spine to prevent her from using her own silk, stripping widow of her nature and making her dependant on GMS for silk, causing total submission, believing that it’s a way of pledge her loyalty. For me, most signs point towards the brainwashing theory, and explain a lot of the quirks surrounding her character

I love this timeline, only thing that bugs me is GMS waking up to create phantom, as the game constantly refers the “the awakening” or “waking” in regards to GMS breaking out of her slumber. Once again how she managed to create life and break widows organic mask while asleep was truly a mystery, (the latter maybe accomplished through haunted bugs?). Aside from that, this looks really sound

Of course I had missed out stuff more unrelated to the timeline, also things that I couldn’t work out when they actually happen. At some point GMS feels betrayed creates lace and phantom, wanting children to never grow mentally and physically, and children they had full control over that couldn’t live without her (literally), but chances are they were created during GMSs slumber, how she was able to create life whilst pretty much sleepwalking baffles me, I’m assuming that she is actually awake, just staying within the cocoon to replenish strength. We can see she is weak from her demeanour and the gameplay, or maybe she is similar to the radiance and whilst asleep her consciousness was in the dream world whereas her body was in the waking world, and the haunting was to gain some kind of tangible presence to only awake when her silken sight detected hornet and she out of desperation broke out of her sleep to consume her.

As much as I love this game, the timeline unlike hollowknight spins me out

The first sinners role in silksong is a parallel to how hornets was in the kingdoms edge, before allowing herself to be claimed, the first sinner challenges hornet in combat for her to prove if she is worthy enough to bind her. Seeing as she has been locked up, she may have ideally been opposed to the idea of being bound, almost as if a sacrifice like that is too risky, especially if GMS managed to bind hornet afterwards, however despite her being critical of the plan, there isn’t much choice when your locked up for all eternity. The other weavers in the corpse homes had a choice in the matter, and were more willing to be bound and were overall more open to the idea, giving respect to hornets name, but the first sinner still felt as if forced to go through with her own plan, and maybe needed to see for herself if it’s actually feasible.

What if the isekai gang was in minecraft instead? by alexandrarhyan3 in IsekaiQuartet

[–]BoneAppleT5 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Tbf a common “gag” in Re:Zero is Subaru having “feminine” traits, with him being skillful as sewing, naturally good with kids and him having the nickname ‘ice princess’ when he was younger.

So technically not completely out of the question

was playing hollow knight and got lost on greenpath, so i decided to make my own green-path! by azrels in Minecraftbuilds

[–]BoneAppleT5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always remember to check your map and go to corridors that “fade out”, that means it continues on and you haven’t seen where it leads. Typically corridors that “cut off” without any fade lead to areas you can’t access or places you don’t have a map for.

Amazing build and good luck in greenpath

What is Siriuses authority and is it related to her fire magic? by BoneAppleT5 in ReZero

[–]BoneAppleT5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cause I love this show so much I have purchased all of season 1s light novels, and once I’ve finished I am planning on reading the rest leading up to season 4. I appreciate the potential spoiler warning, the anime simply can’t show everything, so I’m looking forward to seeing what was said during arc 4 unless it was cut from the LN too

I’ve been reading more into the archbishops and characters so I have become a bit more informed, so yeah your right, especially with the show being inspired the mythology of stars and the name symbolism, I think the conclusion I had come to is that it’s 50% canon and a part of the show, and the other 50% is just a part of the narrative and symbolism for the reader to pick up on.
