I've been a Hollow Knight fan since the game's release, but I've never been able to 112% it. Let me know what games you want me to 100% next! Or if I should try getting all the games achievements?

[SeanieDew]

''So i inmagine in the lore hornet came through here and sucked all the color out with her needle or something''
10/10 completely accurate lore

in case anyone wants a brief hollow knight lore summary:

the moths used to worship the Radiance. Then the Pale King came to Hallownest, giving bugs a mind. He then started to govern his new kingdom and became the king.
Eventually the moths moved on from the Radiance and started to worship the Pale King instead.
The Radiance was not happy about that and started to infect bugs (the orange stuff).

The Pale King was not pleased about that and started the project to seal the Radiance away forever. That would make the infection disappear.
So he made love to the White Lady, and made lots and lots of babies. He threw these babies eggs into the abyss. This would make them "hollow", as in, no dreams, no voice, no thoughts.
The infection of the Radiance can only infect beings that have higher thoughts (dreams mainly).
The strongest baby/vessel that emerged got trained and turned into the Hollow Knight.

The King then got 3 other people and turned them into the Dreamers to make the seal stronger.
Lurien was loyal to the King so he had no problem getting turned into one.
Monomon agreed that this would be the wisest choice. Later on during gameplay she has changed her mind and allows the Knight to kill her to undo the seal. She also placed a 2nd protection around herself that needed Quirrel to undo it.
Herrah agreed to be turned into the 3rd Dreamer only if she gets a child from the Pale King. The Pale King and Herrah then did the deed and Herrah birthed Hornet. Since Hornet was not tossed into the Abyss, she s just a normal bug.

Everything seemed perfect and to work, but sadly, the Hollow Knight was no longer perfectly hollow. The Pale King and the Hollow Knight had developed a father-son bond, which allowed the Radiance to influence the world despite being sealed.
Hallownest fell because the Pale King couldn't help himself but love his son.

The Knight we play is perfectly hollow, and therefore able to perfectly seal the Radiance.

“That’s why I’m the Hollow freaking Knight man!”

***we literally are not***

This part got me 😂

[lightning]

you gotta thank the gods that pantheon of hallownest isn't part of the 112% but it does have its achievement so you still gotta do it to 100% the game not the save file

Seanie: "I really don't understand the lore of this game" :/

Also Seanie: *Doesn't read the dialogue*

[insomniacnerd]

Very, very, very basic plot summary.

King comes in and gives bugs intelligence and creates a kingdom.

Radiance doesn’t like that and infects the minds of bugs. When her influence spreads, the infection seeps through the body.

King finds Void. King decides to use it when creating countless children to make an emotionless vessel, as emotion is what the Radiance latches on to in order to infect bug minds.

King has three big bad bugs become seals to keep it further locked up.

It doesn’t entirely work as the titular Hollow Knight isn’t completely emotionless. Kingdom falls into ruin.

You’re one of those children, coming back from somewhere to either kill the Radiance or become the new, better vessel to keep her contained.

Again, VERY basic plot summary.

„This is not only the hardest challenge in hollow knight“
*Absolute Radiance and NKGrimm laughing hysterically*

I love the lore of this game, where it’s hidden in the backgrounds, description of items, and conversations with seemingly unimportant little guys. The world building has so many layers it’s great.

“Makes your shawdow do damage… well I’m never using that” oh my Gosh, you have no idea how good sharp shadow is

0:54 that guy with the glasses kinda looks like seanie

[rodneybuckentime]

1:04:28 that is NOT the king's corpse!!! that is one of the GUARDS!!!!

[RealKipper]

Watching Seanie fail to understand the lore/basic plot while simultaneously actively skipping dialogue is rather interesting to watch

[Conshy]

I would literally cover my body in paper cuts and lemon juice for the rest of my life just to see Seanie ATEMPT all the achievements in hk or at least the pantheon of hallow nest

Seeing Seanie kill Gruz Mother after Mantis Lords and getting the first nail upgrade is so crazy to me since most people end up finding and fighting her before/soon after False Knight

@seaniedew, I was in physical pain watching you farm in city of tears for over an hour. After you beat colosseum 3 you can redo the colloseums as many times as you’d like. And you get the geo reward.
