Same boat here. Took right around that long, although on my second playthrough I'm far more competent with the controls. Early bosses are taking only one or two attempts.
Yeah, any% and low% runs of Hollow Knight tend to be pretty heartless. Although, the world record run in the Low% category (by homothety) actually does save the grub in the Beast's Den even though doing so is a (very small) time loss... I guess he just couldn't bear walking right past it ❤
@@davidzhu3525 (spoiler warning) If you combine the fact the kids are audibly fine with the description of Grubberfly's Elegy ("Contains the gratitude of grubs who will move to the next stage of their lives.") and the name of the achievement ("Metamorphosis"), it seems pretty clear that in fact the grubs are not consumed by the father. It's probably the other way around: they will consume the father as they are transforming into the grubberflies that will eventually emerge from his corpse.
This is what would happen if the knight wasn't controlled by a player. That is the whole purpose he was created. No side tracking, Very efficient and capable bug. Also the way he straight up slauthers Watcher knights is way too satisfying.
Don’t forget that the knight is not as knowledgeable as a speedrunner. The speedrunner already knows the very quick and efficient methods in finishing the game, the knight doesn’t.
@@thedullestapple8686 It's a speedrunning rule to stop time during transitioning, most likely because one can have a faster or slower transition then the other and it would be unfair.
19:00 I went into that fight with Joni's Blessing, LifeBlood, DashMaster, 2nd nail upgrade, and 3 soul vessels, and it took me 4 hours and about 60 tries. Sigh...
At least in Any% (NMG) you have Shaman's Stone. Those masochists doing Low% (NMG) have to do the fight without any charms... and dashless (since you never fight Hornet in Low% hence never acquire dash).
Quick Slash and Mark if Pride are a dream combo for that fight if anyone needs tips. I couldn't best them without those two. I also recommend coiled nail + and unbreakable/fragile strength
Shade cloak and Shadow dash make them much easier, although those are not for speed runs you can get them in a normal run or steel soul run. I find they help more than anything else for me.
I just finished Steel Soul run today at 104% in 15hrs. I didn't do any skip and get to areas with the intended abilities/items, and I don't rush, just playing casually. First playthrough will always be long because you didn't know what to do. Maybe another reason why I'm also fast was because I use fragile greed on first half of the game and deposit 4500 geo at the scam bank (got 1.5x from the scammer back), so I never have to farm at all
@@Firefly256 Being able to escape from False Knight after the first stagger is intentional, so you can get the fireball spell and start exploring Greenpath and beyond if you want. It's not very helpful though: the fireball spell won't help you much with False Knight since you can't get much soul during that fight, the next boss isn't going to be any easier, and you need the City Crest obtained by defeating False Knight to progress later in the game (unless you take an unusual route around that obstacle).
@@MatthijsvanDuin Trust me I took that route and only 30 hours later I discovered that statue to use that crest. On the other side of a huge door. And I didn't have that ground slam. *sigh*
At least he could see. There are also runs (e.g. the WR low% run by homothety) that take a route that traverses deepnest from fungal wastes to distant village early in the run, prior to obtaining the lumafly lantern. That means near zero visibility in the left side of deepnest.
Lol, it took me 62 hours. But that's okay, speedruns aren't my thing. Especially with a gorgeous game like Hollow Knight. I mean, how can you not save the poor caterpillars??
Team Cherry: The achievement is "complete the game in 5 hours" People: I complete the game in 34 minutes Team Cherry: Oh no no no no... (I admire you, and I love your videos s2)
He did Focused to heal, check the Hollow Knight final boss...... He healed once. And if we're being technical he focused 5 times (3 for the beings 1 for the hollow knight and 1 focus in the battle hollow knight)
In this case using they would create an ambiguous sentance. "They kill bosses like they're nothing." They're could either refer to the subject, "they", or the object, "bosses". It would almost certainly be the later based on context, but why not sidestep the issue entirely?
