clearly the next game they make will be the fox thing, which I doubt will be related other than maybe having Mr. Mushroom show up
if they ever come back to the series my best guess is they'll set it in the City of Steel - genre shift to something more akin to a roguelike to justify mandatory permadeath. probably just have a completely new protag desu. you need someone who's pretty blank slate to justify the customization from a roguelike, and Lace thematically kind of demands a weird health system and a mechanical focus on parries and short-ranged melee attacks.

Act 3 is a joke. In fact, I'd say you can wait until Act 3 to track down everything if you'd prefer. The only change is some of the shortcuts are broken and now enemies very occassionally get pozzed by the void which gives them some extra attacks and makes them take a whopping extra 2 attacks to kill. So far I've got 2 of the three hearts, and none of the bosses are any harder than Savage Beastfly or Raging Conchfly, for reference.

No because she is made of soul i fused silk - the kind that only exists in Pharloom, and can only be extracted from the bugs in Pharloom - so if she ever left Pharloom or didn't tag along with Hornet she would be fucked. They wouldn't make another game in Pharloom, so no Lace protagonist (not that it would be a good idea anyway).

It's both easier and harder at the same time because the entire game becomes a lot more open. As a result, it filters shitters who can't do "hmm, I might not have enough upgrades to tackle this area, better use a silkeater and go somewhere else." If you bottle your own ego then it's both easier and more fun because of the openness.

I want to play a young purebred pale being that travels through a few different kingdoms over the course of the game as you decide what kind of god you want to grow into, letting the player decide whether they want to help, destroy, or dominate the preexisting civilizations.
Have some sort of evolution based skill tree as sort of a half way point between HK's spells where you just unlock spells and abilities as you play, and Silksong's tools and skills where you unlock a ton of stuff and then only equip a small portion at once. eg. When you complete the volcano zone you unlock a fire based power on hold Y that will burn open some paths blocked by vines, but what the power does depends on what you did; if you helped them you get a shield of flame that burns enemies that attack your block, but if you subjugated them you get a flamethrower, shit like that.
It would be cool to have a main character that is actually just doing shit out of their own initiative now too, after Silksong added a lot of dialogue and personality to the mc compared to HK1 but still kept the same basic story structure.

there is technically a progression path that if you follow it gives you access to the upgrades you need to easily handle what is thrown at you, you are not shown or even hinted about this path and there is a lot of unprompted backtracking to it, so it is possible to miss critical upgrades and suffer in the citadel

Honestly, my only issue with the concept is that I struggle to see how to get Second Sentinel to leave Pharloom in the first place. The obvious answer is kidnapping, but Team Cherry already did that for Silksong, so them doing it again seems unlikely. My second, more joking, thought is that the Master's kidnapped Sherma or some shit and we're following after him. My third thought is that this is a mission of diplomacy or outreach gone wrong, Pharloom's settlements are recovering and Second Sentinel is the guard for the group sent to communicate with another kingdom, and then shit goes wrong, maybe the City of Steel is in the midst of revolution and Pharloom's envoys get lost in the crossfire. The prcoess of getting there is also arduous enough that we can't get aid from Pharloom.

12th mentions that the original function of the sentinels was actually to go out and shepherd pilgrims into the Citadel, beyond the borders of Pharloom. With the Haunting gone and the Citadel safe from immediate threat, Second could return to that function. Not to bring them back to the Citadel by force like the order used to, but to seek out and see if they need aid, maybe see if there are any other Weaver descendants, and encourage them to help rebuild their former home.

I think the most obvious choice is to use The Hollow Knight, the main problem would be making a interesting moveset, as he isn't as fast as hornet.
Considering he has one arm, I thought sometimes like sekiro with parrys could work well, but team cherry barely knows how to make hitboxes, so I'm not sure it would be that great. Also, doing platforming levels would be another challenge because of his size

Honestly, it doesn't even need to be that formal, at least not at the start. Second wanting to go out and survey the lay of the land after the Citadel has been pacified is enough of a hook, and then she gets roped into the main plot later.

A true HK game would be great, but it would need to be a full blown different genre. The "Metroidvania where you play a fragile midget who dies frequently" would not fit him. He would need to play as a powerhouse who flings lesser assholes around like nothing, and is only matched by enemy bosses.

I saw an interesting idea that went full Sekiro for a Hollow Knight-Hollow Knight game, including giving it a prosthetic arm with customizable features. The size issue is a big one though, no pun intended. It's why I like my Second Sentinel idea, she isn't that much bigger than Hornet. Worst case scenario for both though is just resizing the protagonist to be smaller on screen.

Having a protagonist going in to fuck shit up on purpose would be a neat little twist in the series so far. Hornet was kidnapped, and the Knight seemed to be wandering aimlessly until the arrival at Hallownest. Instead, you're here on purpose, with an initial mission, you have the first move.

God is real and it's our moral duty to surpass him and annihilate him in a pit of his own sin and horror.
He should be the stone baby of a new universe.
A rotted, calicfied remnant of a terrible existence.
