Hollow is Ghost’s brother also Ghost can’t talk and if he could he wouldn’t talk like this (please don’t take this reply seriously I’m just being nit picky and dumb lol)
I finished the white palace today and tbh all my hits and deaths from there could make up this whole video. This is my favorite Hollow Knight video ever because it really shows what it’s actually like. Constant death and pain and cursing and little actual winning.
This game is really cool because when you feel like giving up forever, it draws you back in and makes you try over and over again. Within a few hours, you get good (pun intended) at whatever you are trying to do through repetition.
It’s so nice to get the whole gang together every once in a while ain’t it? (Internal screaming as you face every boss under the sun in the arena alone.)
I am just watching and crying for some reasons: 1. I gave up this game cause couldn't walk after dying and rescue, dying and rescue... Damn Dark Souls in 2D 2.This video is amazing and perfect, nice job!
Little tip, if the amount of geo you had isn't enough to care about, don't care about it, you can just purposely die again in an easy area and kill your shade to get your soul meter back
This is phenomenal. I don't think anyone that has not actually hands on played Hollow Knight could grasp how amazing this is. But I've been there. Every single half second flash of gameplay, I remember getting my ass kicked the same way. I think this might now be one of my all time favorite videos. Great job!
Opinion guy This is too relatable, I might be doing amazing one second but minute I get hit I suddenly lose 99% of my masks all at once and freak out and try to heal and d i e
UA-camr: Well so that was the path of pain Me: huh seems easy enough dont know why is such a meme Me at the start: alright so i need to wall jump to the next wall 2 times then avoid the saw and then wall jump to the other wall while avoiding the saw goind down seems hard but here i go Me after 50 tries: alright so now i have to down poggo those white thin-
Oro and Mato: we may not have talked to each other for like a hundred years, but that doesn't matter as long as we get to kick this tiny creature's ass

Fun Fact: It was so hard to beat Troupe Boss Grimm with my normal set up, that I had to resort to cheesing the fight just to get back the stupid grimmchild. Of course, I now know better and can fight him just fine without cheese. The Nightmare king is a different story, though.
