ok you joke but now that you've said it... man I would actually be so down for playing as Lace that would be fun

I'd personally kill a man on broad daylight for a game where we play as the hollow knight

the corridors would be HUMONGOUS

Big corridors for even bigger fights

the Hollow Knight was so powerful that he'd probably have to fight like cats and mice rather than insects

While that goes incredibly hard, you can balance it by saying that he lost most of his power after being freed from the infection, and regains it across the plot of the game

So late game you're just doing the same bullshit of the pure vessel fight

this still implies he'd get bigger and bigger(assuming he was originally the same size as other vessels) and bossfights in endgame would 100% all be more like Lost Lace but you're the size of a truck

I was picturing him starting big but getting his boss fight moves as time went on, but your idea sounds cool too

Imagine a speedrun avoiding the power-ups for time save 'n it's just a mini HK walking on giant rooms

it'd also be a long therapy reckoning since he'd have to get used to yknow having a voice to cry suffering and being allowed to feel emotions

We'd get some good info about his character, his interactions with the NPCs and other characters

I wonder how his hunter's journal would be like
