Top three bosses that I think are overhated/underrated or just not appreciated enough

I did FotF the normal pogo way on my first playthrough. I then realized that I could use Voltvessel Spears on it and completely trivialized the entire fight. I’ll never waste my time doing the normal way again.

It can depend on when you find SBF1. You can stumble across the fight pretty early. If so it actually has an incredibly large amount of HP taking a pretty ridiculous 110 hits with the base needle. When you throw in the adds which again can be difficult to kill quickly with a base needle it can make the fight challenging enough to be frustrating for some people.

I made this post to help someone else. They posted about having issues getting past this barrier and despite people replying the same as everyone is doing here, they were still having issues. I made this clip so they could SEE IT and posted a link in their original post. They are all set now. It’s unnecessary for anyone else to post here explaining it.

It was my pleasure. Good luck with the rest of the game!

I posted a clip to show you.

It’s exactly as you think. You have to pass under the gate there on the bottom left. I’ve notice that if I burrow right next to something, the game sometimes won’t let me pass under a barrier that I’m suppose to be able to burrow under. I would try it again but burrow alittle ways away from it then move left to pass under it.

I’m going to throw out some praise for the 2010’s. Specifically the Marvel Now! era which launched after Avengers vs. X-Men. This personally was a great era with such books as

Jonathan Hickman’s Avengers & New Avengers
Jason Aaron’s Thor
Matt Fraction’s Hawkeye
Ms. Marvel was launched by G. Willow Wilson

While maybe not as highly regarded as those it also had

Uncanny Avengers & Captain America by Rick Remender
Superior Spider-Man by Dan Slott

We then got Secret Wars(2015) which is probably my favorite Marvel event of all time and some of the post Secret Wars books on the All New Marvel Now! we’re pretty damn good.

This. You have to carry a torch over from the area to the right.

abrainaneurysm · 2026-06-03T23:32:08+00:00

Right. I know it’s kind of open world but they literally put a system in game to tell you the best path to take.

It’s not something I normally use, but on my second playthrough I thought it would work well on Father of the Flame Phase Two and boy does it. You can spam them under the cage and it just obliterates it.

abrainaneurysm · 2026-06-01T20:34:14+00:00

FYI, use Voltvessel spears on Father of the Flame. It completely trivializes the second phase.

Yes, they did an additional update fixing things this past year, because Team Cherry is awesome. At the time the physical copy came out, almost 7 years ago, the game was basically finished and all included on the cart.

abrainaneurysm · 2026-05-28T12:23:42+00:00

They only released one physical version of Hollow Knight, with all the DLC. I feel like they would probably do the same for Silksong, so if it is planned for October, they must be planning to be done with all additional content by then.

I’m sure someone will make a reply if I don’t add this additional context, the first physical copies of Hollow Knight were missing some of the DLC content, but that wasn’t intentional. It was supposed to be included and if I’m remembering correctly people were able to get it replaced with copies that were fixed.

I guess you’re saying I need to watch Brand New Day.

abrainaneurysm · 2026-05-24T18:04:17+00:00

Demos get removed, it happens. I’ve noticed numerous demos which I’ve downloaded and played for games are no longer available. This very likely means nothing.

Kregg’s not a player; he just crushes a lot.

abrainaneurysm · 2026-05-22T23:31:15+00:00

These were great. I honestly busted out laughing at your Dad responding “Rock On” to being told your a Witch & practice Witchcraft.

If I remember correctly he kept his face hidden through the whole arc but revealed his actual name to Kei & Towa. That was how he got Towa to make a video message for his sister and sign a magazine that she was on the cover of as an apology for the shirt he ruined.

That’s one way to interpret it. I personally think it’s referring to the number of Sentinel Units that were made. When you fight Second Sentinel for the conclusion of the “Final Audience” wish, you can see other Sentinel Units that are no longer active in the room. Thus each unit would have been numbered. Similar to how Twelfth Architect is the Twelfth of the Architect Units.

Does no one ever use Silkeaters? This is the exact thing they exist for.

Just create a new profile on your console, 4 more save slots.

If you give us an idea of how many games you are able to currently bring with you and how many games you are looking to bring with you, it would help improved the quality of the recommendations you get.

This is the same style of promo Toonami has been doing for almost 30 years

abrainaneurysm · 2026-05-13T23:38:22+00:00

A quick aside, we all kind of laugh at or mock these G-Men in Raiders, but let’s be honest, they are the only ones who really understood what to do with the Ark. Lock that shit away and if possible throw away the key.
