There are two curses of watching video essays that nobody talks about.

1) you realise the background music is from Hollow Knight and that completely distracts you from whatever they're saying because you're focusing on the music

2) you realise the background music is from LEMMiNO and that completely distracts you from whatever they're saying because you're focusing on the music

Just a short appreciation post about Hollow Knight and Outer Wilds, and how grateful I am to have stumbled into these two games, at this particular point of my life, as a young adult who can finally comprehend this message

Because these two games talk about the same topic, one I know scared and intimidated me too much when I was younger

But now that I’m at a point when I can actually grasp it and properly appreciate it, I’m glad to have experienced these two games with how well they tackle and present topic of entropy, and how I got through them in this order

Hollow Knight talks about letting go and leaving the past behind, there’s no bringing old order back, you have to let the old kingdom truly rot away, let the old dreams and regrets fade away. Not even gods are eternal. It’s more subtle here, makes me think about rot and that smallest scale of decay. First time I was confronted with this topic in a way that made me feel calm and humble.

And then Outer Wilds talks about similar thing but on much bigger scale. There’s these omnipresent feelings of inevitability at the core of universe and the game just did perfect job with slowly easing me into this uncomfortable powerlessness until there was nothing but calm acceptance, gratitude and humility in the face of it all. And how when looking at that biggest scale, it’s the smallest things that matter.

So, full circle. These two games just took my confused baby human hand and lead me through this in the gentlest way possible. I’m glad they exist.

Now I’m just going to lay on the grass and watch the sky for a moment. Ok? ok.

Kindly Isma, is one of The Great Five Knight bosses which can be fought in Pale Court fan DLC.

Krita. 8th August 2023

Isma is a curious fighter. Her attacks are not aggressive. They cover great range, but are very slow. However, she makes her battle more complicate by spawning Fool Eaters and Gulkas, two very common Green path/Queen's Garden enemies, and restricting my movement with thorny plants.

Normally, I consider bosses with minion fight (Grey Prince Zote) to be cheap and infuriating, but these minions do not move, making them more of an extra attacks and traps rather than the extra enemies.

Her move set works wonderfully with her minions. She progressively raises the difficulty, without using any new attacks. First, she uses Fool Eaters to create danger on the ground, while the Gulka make sure staying in the air or walls is not safe either. Then, she slowly closes her arena in while spawning 2 invincible Gulkas to keep the pressure on me even if she is not attacking, also making sure healing is nigh impossible. In her final phase, the wall surrounding me are covered in spikes, eliminating my option to wall jump and be a source of damage to me.

Isma's fight feel mostly fair, except for a few moments that Gulka's shots do not despawn when she is changing phase.

I had a displeasure, of suffering her fight for over a week, then achieve my first win defeating on my last health, only to be hit by Gulka's bullet, turning my victory into a bitter draw.

I finally defeat her by entering her second phase with full health, as I give up any hope of healing with 2 bullet chasing me down. Freeing up 3 notches from Quick Focus, I put on Dream Shield, and with the intention to end the hard part of the fight as soon as possible, Unbreakable Strength, Shaman Stone, Thorn of Agony and Grub Song (I can't use Nail art well). I won the fight with 4 mask left, took me almost 4 minutes.

Mighty Hegemol fight that I was worried about turns out a lot easier than I anticipated. I just need to nail bounce on his head once and hop to the side.

Now I head that Mystic Z'mere is even harder. I do not know if I am string enough.

Wow you really came back right after I came back.

We really ARE mootsies.

You know what I mean.

(Even though I've yet to get back into the classics swing of things and the best experience I've had so far of the fandom I'm currently in has been a post with 4 notes, which is by all means the social media equivalent of screaming in the void.

Still, I just wanted to say hi :> )

that's neat, we ARE indeed connected !! kinda. i wasn't able to reply to this ask yesterday, in the end nskjsf ;v;

i've gotta get back around classics too. it's hard to do when your whole degree is about them yk. i spend way too much time not only reading those works, but translating them myself, so it gets a bit tiring in the end 😢 i use the internet more for fandom stuff now, as well, so i get you.

saying hi to you in return !! glad to see you around :D
