Now that I finished playing Silksong I hopped on my old Hollow Knight save file to see how the game holds up after a couple of years. And it's great!

However, it's so funny to try Godhome again with Silksong muscle memory. Aside from having my brain rewired to the diagonal pogo, I keep doing stuff like dashing away from an attack and then walking away at a moderate pace because I keep expecting to automatically sprint (and get wrecked), or I keep messing up my heal timings, etc.

But the one thing that keeps cracking me up is trying to airstall with Drifter's Cloak. Which I obviously don't have. So I just keep comically dropping like a stone when I don't expect it lmao and it feels like:

The post-Silksong Hollow Knight replay experience for me so far has been "silksong is so much harder, beating hollow knight will be a breeze!"

And then I'll faceplant on a ledge and fall into acid because ghost cant grab it

I spent like an hour drawing these with my finger on my phone in a moving car, just so I could properly articulate my Hollow Knight hot take:

Adult Ghost shouldn’t look like THK but with shorter horns just because they had similar looking shells when they were young. Hollow looks the way they do now because they were the only vessel to be “Fully Grown” and “Raised to prime form”

The entire point of the Godhome Ritual is to have a symbiotic relationship between the Seekers and their God, the seekers gaining a respite from their “silent minds” while their “godly focus” elevates an entity to their most powerful form, whether that means returning them to a state of former glory, or ascending them to an all new level of power. (possibly both in some cases?)

Additionally, when Ghost uses their Void abilities (most notably, Shade Cloak), the shape of their horns become slightly more exaggerated while they are briefly void.

Quid Pro Quo; I’d say it stands to reason that a “Fully grown” and “raised to prime form” version of Ghost, would be a much LESS exaggerated version of The Shade Lord.

To further my point, consider that young Hollow’s horns only have 2 prongs, but when fully grown, they have 3 and they don’t really resemble their original shape THAT much. Ghost’s horns are rounder than young THKs, so I’d say it’s also fair to assume they could become more curved than Hollows, as well as developing a 3rd prong like Hollow’s. All this could very well be interpreted as looking something like the shape of Shade Lords head.

TL:DR:

Adult Hollow Knight: Round, spindly, sad Soul baby.

Adult Ghost: Sharp, pointy, angey Void baby.

op do we share a mind

hollow knight doodles that started as a fashion showcase and very quickly turned into a grown-up ghost showcase

Artists that draw grown up Ghost looking more like the Lord of Shades the older they are... Thank you for watering my crops

Uh oh guys it's time for my periodical obsession with hollow knight to swing back at full force and silksong isn't out yet. I can feel the void consuming me again. Guess i'll play the game for the seventh time

Came to visit my brother and sister in law, she goes, "hollow knight is a shitty game"

"How much did you play"

Homegirl gave up at FALSE KNIGHT

DIDN'T MAKE IT PAST TUTORIAL FASE OF THE GAME

Ghost reminds me of those cat memes

[rondoel]

Just a few scenes from this gold mine of Oro and Tiso interactions that is Healing Hands fanfic, and If you haven’t read it yet - I definitely recommend because It’s both incredibly in character and hysterically funny 😂 (so much that I think I’ve read it 4 times already)

And I also consider it new canon for them because yes
