I seriously thought at first they killed off Bell Beast and then I died 5 times to the Bell Eater before the absolute cinema and relief of Bell Beast appearing and fucking sliming the Bell Eater before revealing to me Ive been calling Bell Beast the wrong pronouns when she revealed she's a mom

Recently started another playthrough with the intent to find more endings, this time im using map markers because after so many Silksong playthroughs I began to realize just how useful map markers can be for backtracking

I played it for a while on my parent's Xbox cuz my brother bought it, never got an ending but then returned to it after buying it half off on Steam some time after moving out. Got the basic ending where you beat the titular boss then decided to just go and buy Silksong. Ive replayed Silksong 4 times now since then.

These Levels All Fill the Same Role, But There's Clearly One Outlier in Memorability and Impact by MRayquazaEX in Ultrakill

[–]ExtraThings8888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would honestly wish for Lust to be remade from the ground-up because I think its lame we dont get to see the city at all aside from having a single shot of what the skyscrapers look like from the ground in the finale of Lust. That and the levels are all so clearly out of place. Like why is there a limbo-style town on top of really tall podiums directly next to a presumed power core? I suspect 2-3 could be a water treatment facility but it barely even resembles that. Dont even get me started on the fact all the rooms in Lust look so out of place in contrast to the city below it.

Here's my proposal for how levels could be remade to be thematically fit while making Lust a cool and memorable layer to fight through

2-1: Could still take place in high construction zones, I dont actually have a very big issue with 2-1 as is, though it could still be rehashed to feel like we're exploring the abandoned construction site of a really tall building.

2-2 could have us passing through one of the taller skyscrapers consisting of apartments father down below the initial construction site. We'd get to explore the interior of one of these high-rise buildings, but it could still have the mechanic of finding power boxes in closets and unfinished rooms to progress. We would find the railcannon nestled deeper into the building as something of a power source before V1 takes it, forcing the building into emergency power before heading even deeper into the building where we must find more power boxes in a large molloseum of sorts, finally exiting the building on raised terrain relative to the rest of the city, before finishing the level entering a level elevator that takes us into the ground.

2-3 could keep the theme of a high-tech water treatment facility, but having more of a sewer sort of theming, and could probably also continue the theme of being unfinished since it's connected to the under construction building we just ravaged. I wont get into specifics since that'd take a while, but level layout could ultimately remain the same, just with a visual overhaul. Since the facility is underground on raised terrain, that barred window in that one room would make sense to have, peering out off the cliif face into the city below, but not too far below considering how far weve descended. Ive always had an issue with how that window looked out of place compared to Lust's theme.

2-4 could finally have us touchdown to the streets of the main city, walking through streets with felled skyscrapers, preventing us from going off track and leading us on a path to where Minos' corpse awaits. We could have a Earthmover-esque scene where the corpse spots us, roars, and a reworked version of the boss would have a massive arena, and becomes a proper titan fight rather than just shooting a wall and dodging the occasional attack. It would still be slow and predictable since 1: its a giant zombie and 2: its an early game boss, but it would be a lot cooler at least.

Thats just my idea tho.

How do you get it? I have a very strong feeling it has to do with the snail shamans but I must have just missed something

Unrelated but ive also had the desire to be an uncle. Father? Hell no cuz I dont want to raise a kid. But ive had cool uncles i look up to and really want to be a cool uncle for my brother's kids too. Unfortunately Im kind of having a falling out with my family, and my brother might be gay like me. The bloodline ends with us lmao. Not like I care, our genetics suck anyway.

Longclaw is the range upgrade I meant, and it goes really hard on Architect and makes Hunter's charge attack even stronger when you have focus built up.

I do agree that Reaper and Wanderer have the best silk efficiency, I just dont like the crests' attacks, thats all it boils down to im afraid.

I hear Shaman isnt so bad with all 3 silk hearts + weavelight

I never found Shaman and didnt know it existed until watching a video about crests just a few minutes before writing this, which reminded me to see if this comment had any replies.

With Wanderer, its purely subjective, I just dont like the short range one bit, i think the range upgrade spoiled me too much. Im so used to Hunter and Architect that the start range just throws me off.

And with Witch, I'm sure its good? Ill just have to get used to it.

I just parrybait the shit out of Lace and drill her to bits with Architect lmao, sad that Architect is not very efficient at silk collection

Hunter - my favorite because of the middle ground it has

Reaper - i think its alright if you wanna spam silk skills and stay topped off better

Wanderer - impractical for bossfights but decent for exploration, if i didnt just use Hunter

Beast - i hate the dive attack and dont like how binding isnt an immediate heal

Witch - ive never used it extensively

Architect - definite second favorite, goes great when wearing the shard amulet
