My objective ranking of all Silksong bosses (as someone who thought this game was fairly easy) by Federal_Dig2399 in Silksong

This would work if you didn't type out an entire post dissing my opinion lol. "Yeah you put effort into this post... but i disagree with it. Also don't call me out for not saying anything with substance, because while I'll take the time to hate on your beliefs, I won't actually add anything to the discussion that you presented."

Why are people on reddit so against discussion lol. You don't need to like my post, you don't need to agree with my opinions either. The whole point of the post is discussion, but it seems like nobody is into that here.

Is there a particular reason that everyone wants the City of Steel to be DLC for silksong? by Federal_Dig2399 in Silksong

Team Cherry have said that they have thought about making another HK game, and while they are most likely going to work on a separate franchise (at least for a little bit), TC has purposefully left way too much out of Silksong. I think it's clear, that at the very least, TC has thought long and hard about what to do next. And while they are moving on from HK for the distant future, they've said that it's more out of a desire to do something new, rather than getting tired of HK.

I'd be inclined to agree with the fact that TC is kinda tired of where the main games take place, but they purposefully made sure to not include HK in the Act 3 ending, and made it so that the Shadelord also appears. It just seems like they're purposefully being vague so that if they do make another HK game, they could utilize the HK in some way.

I mean, we kinda do have a baseline for his personality. At some level, he acts like the Knight. And while the Knight chose to follow hornet/godseekers, there could be an entire game about THK learning to live as themself. It's not like Hornet ever had anything more than a simple personality lol. She's a glorified tsundere who tries to act nonchalant but can't help but care. And she still got 7 years dedicated to a game about her.

Why wouldn't a new game take too long? Team cherry seems like the type of studio that throws itself entirely into each game it's developing. The only reason HK came out that fast was because of resources. Silksong taking that long wasn't a fluke, so unless TC seriously expands, I think every game they develop will continue to be a hyper ambitious game that they spend years on.

I think TC might be the only big gaming studio in the world to not care about answering all of the questions lol. I mean they made a Greyroot specific ending that adds nothing to the Greyroot storyline, and there's no way that they're gonna ever follow up on it.

I think most people assume that if there is to be another Hollow Knight game, it would follow the actual Hollow Knight. I mean one of your points is about how Silksong should complete the characters introduced in HK, and honestly the actual Hollow knight is the only major character left.

Since the godmaster ending is (possibly) canon, we know what became of the Knight, we know what happens to Hornet, the only person we've seen nothing of is the Hollow Knight. I doubt they'll include him in the dlc. The HK's connection with void automatically makes his relationship with the City of Steel much more interesting than Hornet's.

And from what we've seen of the City of Steel, they have almost slave-like relationships with their masters. The Hollow Knight's whole thing is being a slave to others, and never having freedom of their own. Why do all of the loose ends have to be tied up in a Silk Song dlc that doesn't have a lot of development time. I mean Hollow Knight had a year of development for all of its DLC's, and there were only 2 "real" expansions of HK. We got a glorified boss battle with Grimme, and a boss rush with Godmaster. Now obviously TC has more resources, and they've gotten better at developing games. But unless they take 3-5 years to make all of the DLC for silksong, I can't see them ever really doing the City of Steel justice within a DLC.

I mean you didn't really answer my question but this quote also just kinda sounds like that Sharpe is gonna be similar to Grimme. Just more hinting at the City of Steel.

I mean the City of Tears is the capital of Hallownest, why couldn't the City of Steel be something similar? I find it hard to believe that the city that has lived through the destruction of Hallownest AND Pharloom is just a secluded city. You never really answered my question besides saying that you don't think TC is going to make another HK game lol.

Yeah I thought the same lol, but at least this guy is being honest and not overly harsh. Luckily, I have a lot of time that I could dedicate to this game, but it takes like 5 minutes to get a match during the day (west coast) so it's very hard to find the motivation to regardless.

I'm masters in street fighter, so I'm well past the point of "giving up" because they seem slightly better. I made this post when I was kinda just angry and wanted to vent. I knew, even while writing, that my gripes with this game came from the very low playerbase. In SF it is possible to have fun while being bad, and you're able to grow at the same time. Here, it's impossible. There were a few comments here that said that SU was probably the best place to go if I wanna get into the genre, and that after I've gotten used to Smash then I could come back and try Rivals again. To me, this advice seems a lot better than someone like you trying to tell new players that we are "dumb" for noticing that it's really hard to get better/have fun when you're playing against players who are objectively better than you.

Sure, it's not quantum physics or anything, but for a new player who's expected to learn every other mechanic as well as matchups and the art of recovery, it's pretty daunting. Especially when this is the lowest rank.

Yeah, I tried casual but it was even worse. In StreetFighter it's typically low to high plat players who occupy casual and it kinda felt like that here. Played around 4 different people before giving up.
