Thread 721161952

Is there a reason why every single 'cool' character here, including major and challenge bosses are female,
and every weak or unimportant but pretty strong bosses, including mobs, are male?

>>721161952 (OP)
Female bugs are hot.

>>721161952 (OP)
I bet OP didn't ask the same question about the original being made mostly by male bugs. Incels should be shot

One of the deva trooned and untrooned during the 6 years

anon my fren, its a game about a matriarchy ruined by a female bug, in which you slay a lot of females and males. if you played as a woman and took down a male ruled kingdom and slew a bunch of dude bosses mostly you would call it down-with-the-patriarchyslop yes?

>>721161952 (OP)
It's a matriarchal society. Girl kills a bunch of girls.
Hollownest was patriarchal, most of the main characters were male. Dude kills a bunch of dudes.
If you want to split hairs, Silksong went out of its way to paint the Pale King as a tragic but well-meaning figure while deeming Grandmother Silk and the Weavers a bunch of irredeemable cunts, there's your gender politics.

The little niggardly hitting his bell is cool
Isn't the scientist male too
Isn't the second shopkeeper that bunkered up male too
Isn't the flea caravan leader male too
Isn't the needlesmith male

Also ,|tall green bug| is also male and a warrior. You can also point to a lot of the stronger enemies

>>721161952 (OP)
Have you considered that maybe you are insecure about your masculinity?
I'll let you think about it for 10 minutes, then write me an essay about what you found in your introspection.

>>721161952 (OP)
wtf a spider society is matriarchal???

>>721161952 (OP)
The game is good, so I don't care if the characters are female or male. If "affirmative action" had been an excuse to sell a mediocre game... but that's not the case

>>721161952 (OP)
The pinmaster is cool. Ballow of the forge is cool. Garmond is also cool, he is just old. Don't hate.
Mooshka is rad.
Seth is rad.
The roach thief is a little shit but I respect how shit he is.
The Bonebottom fixer is cool.
The Songclave Caretaker.
The psalm keeper.
Sherma is a boy.
A lot of other characters are also cool like Sprintmaster. The Crust King. The ant hunter.

The female bugs might be overrepresented this time around, but the male bugs are still cool and there are plenty of them still.

>tall green bug
literally an incestual faggot who was too busy fucking his own twin to save his kingdom, tells you not to free him from jail because he wants to rot to death, and is grateful if you do finally choose to kill him

But best character is male

>>721161952 (OP)
Putting opinions aside for a sec; the Bug/Arachno world is primarialy a matriarchal thing
Doesn't mean i'm getting this, just surprised no one's mentioned that yet

>>721162532
Men are natural warriors so you don’t feel like your intelligence is being insulted when you see one.

Yeah he was busy buttfucking and sticking his weiner in feces haha. He's not even that strong really, he's emasculated by having many prostate orgasms from his butt buddy twin. I wonder how it smelled? You know, it's probably a very funny smell haha.

Seth, Trobbio, the gays, 1 of the Beastflys, 1 of the Skull Tyrants, 1 of the Conchflys, Signis & Gron, Groal, The Unraveled, Father of the Flame, Second Sentinel (maybe), Zango, Khann, Garmond, Gurr, Crawfather...
I'm sure there's a few more.
Just because the most important ones are female doesn't mean it was an overwhelming majority female.

>make women pivotal figures in a ruined kingdom story
>they are inevitably responsible for the worst atrocities and fuckups of that world

It's just equality, anon.

The story also takes absolutely no interest in absolving or justifying their actions, which is the actual hallmark of dogshit feminist writers.

Two of 'em.
Phantom and Lace are sisters.

Yeah, that checks

female bugs are bigger and stronger in real life. wtf

just uninstalled
hornet needs to hit puny bugs and ants for 4-5 times with her heavy moveset, not fun
benches are too far away from bosses, takes tens of seconds to get back to them, absolutely awful
divekick feels much worse than the pogo in the first game, not fun
hollow knight was much better
completed the dlc boss of that game, was so much fun

>>721161952 (OP)
The same reason the game beats you over the head with the fact Hornet is a legal loli. Because the devs want to see porn of their characters.

>>721172534
>hornet needs to hit puny bugs and ants for 4-5 times with her heavy moveset
The weapons do the exact same damage per swing, the slow one has exactly 0 upsides.

>>721171838
It would be cool if there was a way to be judged worthy by last judge by reaching her under some constraints, but I think narratively you're a sinner just for being who you are.

There an inherent sexual tension when a woman is fighting another woman, which makes the fight better.
