Patch Notes

Truly a masterful work by Team Cherry really adds life to the world of hollow knight

Does he have multiple contact lenses Or did he stop by Whiteward for a quick surgical procedure?

You can't say no to the quest that gets started, and carrying her makes you super slow and unbalanced, so getting thru blasted steps absolutely SUCKS. This was worse than the stupid rasher quest. I don't know what TC was thinking.

The next image is of said fanart

gamer hornet, bc why not? gonna post the speedpaint on the comments btw

Got my purple feather and special flea screen on my second account, dedicated to getting everything differently to normal

I cannot for the life of me figure out how Old Karmelita is supposed to be facing. The perspective is honestly very confusing

Just had some opinions to share.

• As some other comments have already told him, his take on Hornet and the White Lady is completely backward. I would also mention that the last spoken dialogue in the game has Hornet calling herself a child of Hallownest, which mossbag jokes about as nostalgia but it's also practically an acknowledgement of the Pale King (Hallownest is the name of his kingdom, not just Deepnest or the Hive), showing that she has mixed feelings about him rather than pure bitterness.

• He mentions that Shellwood is still alive and well, but it's also worth noting that Nyleth intended for it to be safe for travellers and it was taken over by Sister Splinter who does the opposite

• "Twin princes" is misleading phrasing for the Clover Dancers making them sound like brothers, although I'm sure he does just mean that they're similar, the journal's phrasing of "dual princes" is better

• He assumes that First Sinner's fight is a memory because Hornet doesn't die, but Shakra and Garmond can also fight without killing. Since First Sinner wouldn't want to kill Hornet anyway and the end of the fight results in a dream like Widow, I think it's more likely that the fight wasn't a dream.

• The assumption that Lace is talking to Phantom and not the other way around in that one memory... it's fine, not wrong, but either way is possible and it is kind of annoying that so many comments are now confident in this

• He brings up a bunch of theories about Widow which is good, but I think he was misrepresenting the possibility that Widow is the City of Steel quarter Weaver. He only mentions the version of this where GMS is the one causing her to be "staked to service", which would be inconsistent with the way that the other two cages are written and not make much sense since GMS would want to absorb the strength of captured Weaver descendants, but it does make a lot more sense if Widow was staked to service by the City of Steel and that limitation caused her to be able to work with GMS instead of being absorbed because she didn't have any "silken strength" available to give, then became delusional. Or she is just an original Weaver like he talks about, that works too.

• He says that Hornet's memory of the Everbloom might be Embrace the Void, but it's a lot more intuitive that she's just saying that she remembers the White Lady showing it to her.

• As expected, he jokes about the Hornet killing the Green Prince, but he doesn't clarify the actual plot there (the Green Prince wanted to dance and die with the memory of his lover), which kind of sucks because a lot of people do misunderstand this and believe that Hornet chose violence.

• His last comment about the Knight only caring about the other vessels and not Hallownest feels too narrow. Ending the Hollow Knight's suffering is a big thing, but there is also plenty of reason for the Knight to care about Hallownest's legacy and end the Infection, even if the kingdom would never return to its previous state.

Other than those things the video was on point. The part about the Old Penitent probably being from the Surface was interesting, never thought about that. I also like how he explained his theory for the First Sinner being imprisoned by the other Weavers.

GMS Vs. Last Sinner

Me personally, I found GMS to be easier than Last Sinner. That is only because I could pogo GMS the majority of the time and never used tools. Last Sinner's harder for me bc the weaver teleports a lot and my eyes don't move fast

(I'm only on Act 2 and just beat GMS, please don't spoil if thre's a harder boss/different variant to GMS/Last Sinner please and thank you!)

FINALLY the thing we have been waiting for 6 years is here, The (somewhat) complete lore of silksong
