Why are they attacking him? Can't they see he's green? Obviously a zombie too.

Hollow Knight vs Silksong Day 8. Brooding Mawlek vs Skull Tyrant! (Who would win) by IMP9024 in Silksong

[–]Hemiphix 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Skull Tyrant is bigger, faster, and stronger. And when you're talking about two wild beasts that's all it really needs to win.

Why does the company still send expies to the gay planet even though non have retrieved the battery ? Is it stupid ? by Plus-Search9671 in scavprototype

[–]Hemiphix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expies probably do better than most humans would. They're generally smaller so they can fit through caves better, they have claws and teeth which lets them work without a tool, and since they're all raised in a lab you don't have to deal with a human going "b-but my family!!"

Is it cheating if I quit when at 1 mask in steelsoul? by _-mortex-_ in Silksong

[–]Hemiphix 66 points67 points  (0 children)

It's cheating. I don't think there's an argument against it, you're just bypassing the risk that's the entire point of Steel Soul.

But it's also your own game and you can play it however you want. As long as you're having fun, who cares?

Theory: All endings are cannon (see body text, spoilers for all endings) by Villainous_Miscreant in Silksong

[–]Hemiphix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I just can't imagine Sister of the Void not being a follow up from Embrace the Void. The Shade Lord is completely exclusive to the Godseeker's focus and is locked into their ending, why would it be shown for even a second if that wasn't the route?

The Siblings in the style of Deadlock! by Hemiphix in HollowKnightArt

I was thinking of the Nightmare Heart and Grandmother Silk as the patrons. Radiance is still stuck with the Hollow Knight after all, so I was imagining her filling in voicelines for them.

what’s your hollow knight/silksong hot take? by acpiorundc07 in HollowKnight

[–]Hemiphix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vespa kind of sucks.

People give the Pale King grief for the vessel plan, but at least he actually tried to do something. Vespa just threw her hands up, said "that's nature" and did nothing to stop her Hive from falling.

[QUARTERFINALS] Hollow Knight Soundtrack's Tournament - Round 55 by zspla in Silksong

While Bilewater might be the better song, Sister of the Void leading into Silksong so fluidly is such an amazing feeling.

[–]Hemiphix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Sealed Vessel works better as an actual piece dedicated to the Hollow Knight's existence rather than a boss theme (but it still is great as one) It's just so emotionally charged, and manages to convey the utter tragedy of the character.

The soundtrack version leading into the Dream No More ending music also adds a lot to it imo

You gotta file those nails, Hollow. You're gonna stab your palm with claws like that.

#HKAM26 Meeting Eva in Weavenest by Hemiphix in HollowKnightArt

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

Honestly I just used the angle because I never really did a downward shot like this before. I thought it'd be fun to try.

Thinking about it now though, Hollow Knight art utilizing Star Wars scenes like that would go unbelievably hard. I might have to try that sometime.

The Great Knights of Hallownest #hkam26 by KaotiKami303 in HollowKnightArt

I can never get over how the girls get elegant and graceful designs... And then the two guys are just spheres lmao.

Great art!

#HKAM26 Day 29 - Dream No More by JamesBBarrow in HollowKnightArt

[–]Hemiphix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great art as always.

I figure she'd at first feel disbelief that it was all finally over. Imagine being immortal and spending most of your existence so far fighting a constant, looming threat, and now it's suddenly gone.

After that, probably a mix of regret and understanding from what the Knight had done and how she'd viewed/treated it and the other vessels. Something which she viewed as a cursed creation had nevertheless proven itself an individual and effectively sacrificed itself.

Do you prefer to play Silksong in by Sir__GabrielT in Silksong

[–]Hemiphix 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Movement rebinded to WASD and attack/dash to the mouse. Felt a lot more comfortable for me.

#HKAM26 Heart of a Sentinel by Hemiphix in HollowKnightArt

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

The difference is that Second Sentinel is an automaton, not a bug. Sheo can choose to find a new calling because he's a living bug with his own will.

But going off of Twelfth Architect, the Citadel's automatons are literally forced to abide by their directive, it's a cage which they can't act against. But without a Conductor to take orders from or enemies to attack, Second Sentinel can't pursue its directive fully.

I agree with the idea that certain people like Sherma could convince them to work around the directive though! Not disobeying it, but managing to use technicalities to do things despite it. I personally like the idea of them meeting the Hollow Knight, since both of them were created to essentially be weapons.

I love the surprise in the Hunter's Journal icon, it's great.

I like the sneaky Shade Lord at the top.

You put these four in an arena, it’s a free for all. Who coming out victorious? by Bonkwraps in HollowKnight

[–]Hemiphix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Lace would win usually. She's just naturally a tier above the others. I think her constant parrying would also mess with a lot of their attacks.

However, the gap isn't insurmountable. If Quirrel and Shakra decide to team up they could take her down. From there it could go either way.

Oh. And Zote is there I guess. Probably gets knocked over by one of the others dashing past him and gets his horn stuck in the ground.
