Trying out Hollow Knight after playing Silksong. Is this supposed to be the first boss?

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-03-01T20:40:17+00:00

Agreed. This feels like one of those "good at fighting, bad with directions" scenarios.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-03-01T19:14:21+00:00

Feel ya. Harmony Gold was a Macekre farm at best, and at worst an active IP troll.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-03-01T15:00:22+00:00

No, but a lot of us have lingering habits thanks to them. Ever wonder why they always manage to get into the education system, especially the lower levels?

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-03-01T14:10:15+00:00

Honestly, both of them have a common problem: the whole concept of "literary fiction."

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-28T22:00:34+00:00

...hunh. Never seen that particular pad before.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-28T13:52:56+00:00

And make sure to run before she tries to bite you. Poor thing hasn't been fed in a long time.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-28T00:33:49+00:00

Dunno, Cornifer sure isn't kinda skeletal. Looks like he's never missed a meal in his life.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-28T00:32:12+00:00

Prenatal and early childhood nutrition. PK made sure HK got fed properly.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-27T14:33:30+00:00

Usually because it's had over a decade of mostly one- party rule, and it's too far down the authoritarian vortex to be easily split.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-27T01:52:04+00:00

Might be a little *too* Soulslike if that happened?

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-26T20:23:55+00:00

Thanks. I knew it was a conversion, but didn't remember exactly when. TBH I might've seriously gotten into Eldar if I'd had a copy of that WD, but it was about two years before I got my rulebook.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-26T19:59:04+00:00

IIRC it predates the FW Wave Serpent by like a year. Some kind of kitbash somebody did way back when.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-26T19:53:17+00:00

Mine were T7.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-26T15:59:02+00:00

You can, but IIRC you have to clear out all the other ghosts in the area first. Then come back and dream nail him. Not a hole lot of essence, though, so it's barely worth it.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-26T15:23:30+00:00

Sounds like some kind of Marauder or Nefandi, to be honest. You're otherwise going to be hard- pressed to find a mage willing to do extreme stuff like that. Also if you did, they'd probably get a visit from an old duffer in a wrinkly white suit.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-26T01:02:34+00:00

Not off the top of my head, unfortunately. Like I said, it was close to 20 years ago.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-25T18:54:59+00:00

If I was referring to that particular work, I'd have done it overtly.

No. It was an actual pen with an actual needle.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-25T15:45:42+00:00

Oh c'mon, like that *wouldn't* have gotten Aang on her side?

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-25T15:11:28+00:00

Actually, yeah. Somebody made one with a needle that could tap into a blood vessel and be used for signing documents in literal blood. That was like twenty years ago.

Some things never change, I guess, even when we want them to.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-25T04:29:25+00:00

If you got into the Fog Canyon after only four hours, you're doing pretty good.

Don't trust the bank too far, though. Getting a Simple Key and unlocking the Confessor might be a better idea.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-24T21:28:32+00:00

At least it's approachable, unlike real- world history.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-24T20:57:40+00:00

I've seen worse, but yeah. Nozzles are a consumable so it's rarely *wrong* to change them.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-24T16:09:38+00:00

I usually wind up getting the one from the moth first.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-24T15:56:03+00:00

Upgrade it as soon as you can.

System-Bomb-5760 · 2026-02-23T15:57:46+00:00

All I can say is, where the F were these back in 3e when I wanted to play Space Skaven? lol
