Hollow Knight Thread

>>381932389
How's it feel that we can't discuss this game ever again you piece of shit? These threads have been consistently ruined by the OP and we can't discuss Hollow Knight on /v/ anymore thanks to faggots like you. No one discusses it on /indie/ and we lost the general months ago. This entire thread will consist of "shill".

Someone redpill me on the rest of la-mulana, I've beaten three bosses so far and aside from a few puzzles it feels like a complete chore

It came out around the same time as a lot of big AAA and AA releases so it kind of got overshadowed. It's a shame, because it is a great game. I don't know what all the fucking shilling has been about the past few days though, it's fucking obnoxious.

>>381932809
That's because it is. Which somehow makes it hardcore.

Stop shilling this fucking garbage

shit game, go away!

Come on, lamulanafag, we know it's you. Are you this desperate for attention?

>>381932389
This game has gotten a lot of attention.

Will we ever be able to talk about this game? I really do love it, it's my GOTY so far, but this shill shit has to stop.

>>381932647
it's not like there's a whole lot to discuss anyway

GR11 faggot

>>381932809
It's a cool game to go on /v/ and pretend you're smart and didn't have to look at a guide to solve all the badly designed puzzles. It's also cool to pretend you're ok with the outdated controls and the boring combat

>>381933709
huaghaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssasssssssssssaaaaaaaaaaaaasssszz

>>381932389
It's already gotten plenty of awards it doesn't deserve, fuck off. If you think Hollow Knight is underrated you're a fucking mongoloid. It's not AWFUL, but it's just some generic metroidvania. Nothing special to it at all.

I just finished the snail shaman bit and I now have the compass and some of the pins.

It's great that I can actually enjoy this game now.

>>381933825
I think you could've gotten the compass from the start

>>381933825
You could've gotten the compass earlier than that dude.

>>381934347
You have to buy it. Not that guy but I did a lot of exploring before returning to town too. First area isn't bad to keep track of mentally.

I like the game so far but backtracking can be pretty monotonous

>>381934768
Lack of stations makes sense in universe but is pretty annoying

>>381934768
Combat's easy enough that I didn't mind it too much but the walls that get added to the crossroads are unforgivable

>>381934768
There's a point maybe about five or so hours into the game where you suddenly gain a shit ton of mobility, and then travelling becomes fun.

>>381935629
Oh cool, I didn't mind the walking, but I could see it getting a bit tiring after I get accustomed to the game.

>>381935996
Running around looking for things in the late game can get a little monotonous but I feel like if they added more fast traveling it would just make the world seem smaller. Also there were multiple times that I found a secret I missed while I was walking somewhere else.

Love the game, but have to agree with this. I groaned every time I had to go down to one of the lower tram areas. Why couldn't there be a stag station near the tram? Also, every shop and reward giver should be almost right next to a stag station.

>>381935289
Also have to agree with this. What's the fucking point of making more difficult to get around? They did the same with the city of tears, closing the doors.

It's a shit game for wannabe hardcore gamers that love to run back for 3 minutes to retry boss fights

>>381932389
So this game is utter shit right?

>>381937296

it's very tedious but that's how games WERE.

>>381937296
The Soul Master fight was the only time in the game that I felt like it took too long to retry the bossfight. Most of the difficult ones had pretty forgiving respawns. But there were a few times where I felt like I was banging my head on a wall and the walk back was still aggravating. It's probably not for everyone.

>>381937227
To be fair some prick has been spamming threads lately. Blame him.

I was a bit disappointed when I found you couldn't place pins yourself.

>>381935289
Literally what purpose does that serve? I thought it was cool when I first saw it, but it does nothing but slow you down, and there's nothing significantly different about the area. I beat the game and I'm still so confused.

>>381940853

Why would you buy weebshit like Rabi-Ribi when much better alternatives exist?

>>381936484
Indeed. Unlike most other metroidvanias, teleports and other means of quick travel are very, very scarce, which makes a full completion very tedious. Still a great game and one of the best metroidvanias regardless.

>Judging a game by its players and the people who post about it
I mean, that makes sense if it's an online game where you have to interact with said players. But judging a single-player game negatively because you don't like the fanbase? You're only cutting yourself off from a great (if sometimes tedious) experience.

Also, thanks to everyone pointing out how there have been too many Hollow Knight threads (even though there were none before I posted this one). If I was a true /v/irgin like all of you fags and came here every day, I would have known about that before I started the thread.

>>381935289

And backtracking to get back to boss areas.

Despite the thread spamming for this game,
it really is a fun game.

Soul Tyrant needs to be harder

>>381934768
I think they're adding some teleporting system. Not sure exactly how it's gonna work. Something with the dream nail?

>>381941901
Please let that be true because that is like the biggest and like only flaw in this game.

>>381942034
I also didn't like how some "rooms" in the Darknest really needed their own sub-maps. I was lost in there for a while, and the area in general just wasn't very fun.

>>381942034
I didn't mind the backtracking because almost every time I backtracked, I had unlocked a new ability which led me to find secret areas, grubs, shortcuts, etc

It's only out on one platform and has had no marketing whatsoever.

It could use a spotlight at something like psx if a ps4 version is announced.

I really enjoyed the game but if you're not using a guide or anything like that the backtracking gets pretty ridiculous once you get the Dream Nail. It's the combination of having to do 10-15 hour trips to see if you can go into one of the 20 previously unenterable rooms only to find out you can't yet.

I don't mind the exploring and trying out your new abilities in new areas but if you're going to make a game with so much trial and error progression please don't make us go through 10 minutes of backtracking for every try.

Best girl btw.

Every ACTUAL puzzle in LM is drowned in so many hints it might as well be on autopilot, you just act as though autistically ferreting through every room 1200 times just to see if your shiny new Rod of Fuckall will react to this statue is some kind of intellectual achievement when really it's just your nostalgia goggles blinding you to the fact that giving your character the maneuverability and inertia of a derailed freight train in a platformer counts as "hardcore" design.

>people disliking backtracking
granted, i am barely 4 hours into the game, but so far the backtracking through all the areas to see certain NPCs to do certain things, as well as being able to access certain areas with new abilities makes it feel a lot like Dark Souls 1 pre Lordvessel, ie, it makes it feel like a real world to explore. I fucking love it

The one thing i dislike, and i miss this in most games, is the lack of an ingame journal where you can mark down things you should go see later. I guess I can just get a piece of paper irl, but id like something in game for it. Great game though, I really like it.

>>381946847
Some false flagger started spamming threads about the game knowing that /v/ gets triggered and screams shill when there are too many threads of a particular game.

People do tend to, but there is a weird issue. Basically so many threads happened over time because of one guy who false-flagged spammed the game for a long time.

>>381946847
>people like the game
>autists who don't like it spam threads
>now any thread has people immediately claiming shill

>>381947035
Yeah, inability to put down custom pins really kills the momentum. Maybe I'm just retarded but most of my backtracking was noticing an empty spot on the map, going there, and realizing I still don't have the power I need for it. I guess that's true for every metroidvania, but it hit especially hard here for some reason.

>>381946847
There were people crying shill since the release from what I remember because a 3 man dev team can afford to do that right? Then some dudes must have noticed that people in hollow knight threads were easy as fuck to troll, especially when shill gets thrown around. Then shitloads of 'marketing' threads got started, pulling people who think that Hollow Knight is genuinely being shilled into the shitheap.

Hollow Knight is one of the best Metroidvania's I've ever played, right up there alongside Super Metroid and Symphony of the Night.

>>381943878
>Pixel Art

>>381947061
I've seen this happening ever since release, the threads are always about how the game is the best thing ever and that you should buy it.

>>381943878
>I haven't played the game but it's an indie platformer so it must be pixel art

>>381947387
Yep, apparently it's not the first game he did it for or something. Kind of a shame because I would love an actual thread discussing it.

>>381947387
Personally I think it is one of the best games of the genre to come out in a long time, far better than AM2R.

I don't give a shit if you don't buy it. But if you're genuinely interested in the genre you should check it out.

>>381947317
I mean I think it's suspicious that this game keep getting more than daily threads yet people whine it dies on /vg/ (where these belong)

>>381947291
It's because in most metroidvania it's not a long treck to trying out empty spots with new powers and there's not that many up at the same time. Hollow knight literally has instances where you get a new travel power and over 10 empty spots to try it on, far away from the nearest benmch and a long treck to even get there innitiately.

I love Hollow knight but fuck me the game was already pretty huge for a metroid-vania, they really did not have to pad it the way they did by making experimenting new routes as punishing as possible.

Having to get a map for each new area was pretty fucked up as well.

>>381947615

Considering the bugs use items that would be common for humans as weapons does the game imply anywhere else that it's based in the real world? When you first play the game and the stone tablets talk about getting enlightenment from higher beings I thought they talked about humans but considering the last boss was the source of their enlightenment ( who get jealous and then decided to kill them all through the plague ) I'm not sure anymore.

>>381947659
You'll note that most of the responses to this thread are blatant trolling (ie. Pixel art guy) and fucking idiots responding to them rather than actual discussion of the game. At release there was a good amount of discussion and threads on /vg/. It dies on /vg/ because at this point there's not much to actually discuss until the new update because most of it already has been. You'll see more once the updates get released. The fact remains: the majority of hollow knight threads on /v/ are not made to discuss hollow knight but to take advantage of easy people like yourself and the "it's not pixel art!" guys. Simple as.

I just got it and it's not as good as I thought it was going to be based on all the nonstop praise it gets, it's a fairly typical metroidvania and actually controls a little funky.

>>381949336
Really? I thought the controls were great. It's so nice being able to attack while moving, and the downthrust actually allows you to do some serious sequence breaking if you lure a flying enemy to a high spot.

I do hate the brief delay before the double-jump works, though. So many times I've hit spikes right as it shows the animation because you continue falling for a few frames before it actually moves you upwards.

Most of the white palace isn't too hard, but this section is just fucking stupid. It doesn't help that I get impatient because I have to wait for my health to regen every time I get hit.

Finished that one after 55 hours, never expected that kind of gameplay from it, I got really into it.

I didn't get that kind of experience from any other game and I'm not using these words as ''buzzwords'', it was really unique but also extremely frustrating at times. I dont suggest it if you dont have patience. I also suggest you to not use a guide as it pretty much completely ruins the exploration.

8/10 from me

>>381936693
Same here. Any idea when it's coming out?

>>381949260
Well yeah. Thing is, a lot of people are here a lot, so seeing the same threads over and over, even ironically or just there to piss them off, will make them resent thing out of overexposure.

Anyway I got the game because it was shilled so hard and I figured I may as well see what it is. It's alright.

is the false knight or w/e hes called not the first boss? It doesn't take 3 hours to get to him unless your not actually playing the entire time

I wish I would've picked this game up when it came out. I missed out on all the good bug art

I downloaded this game but I don't get what the fuss is all about, is the gameplay going to get better and cooler or is it all based on the atmosphere?
Also I seem to be getting some dropped inputs now and then. Like, I'll jump but my jump will randomly not go all the way and it feels really weird. Do I need a patch or something?

I can't get the bad ending if I get some item but I can still get the other ending(s?) if I get the bad ending first, right? I'm rushing to what I assume will be the end of the game unless I get seriously bamboozled, just so I don't accidentally lock myself out of it, though I don't think there's much I haven't done yet

>>381952521
You can't lock yourself out of anything.

>>381952631
shit, I've been told otherwise
oh well while I'm at it I might as well try to get the first ending so I can understand what's going on before trying to get a better one

I bought this game on sale, and the input delay is really fucking with me. Seems like there's about a quarter second delay.

Is that intentional, like some sort of intentional stiffness to ape Dark Souls? Or is the game just not working correctly on my computer? I have the settings as low as they'll go and a fairly powerful rig.

Because it literally came out smack dab in the middle of three big games: Nier, BotW, and Horizon. You can't get slept on any more than that.

It's largely gotten more than enough praise though a few months after that fact. Hell the steam sale for these past few days is looking pretty good.

theres the rules you retard. and it isnt an often enough recurring thing to make a general about. it isnt undertale which had a huge following behind it. it is just a good new game and people want to discuss it who just picked it up on sale. nothing against the rules on that.

Are there no reviews for this game because its on hold until the Switch release?

>>381961639
Yeah, probably. The big publications probably saw it and thought they'd save the reviews for when it was multi-platform so they wouldn't have to redo them only a few months later.

>>381961541
I want you to prove me wrong.

They can't make a thread without hyping this shit up, why? Because that's the idea, they don't care about talking about the game, because 10 people don't have enough to talk about, instead they are trying to sell the game. Hence why /vg/ isn't good enough.
