No long, unnecessary intro today. Just right into the content.
We go over lore secrets, hidden gameplay mechanics, and other little tidbits of information that most people likely didn’t notice through their first read-through of the new Silksong interview. I promised I wouldn’t post updates on this too much, but having all this fresh info at once is way too exciting.
All quotes, screenshots, and interview info were cited directly from the source material and interpreted/summarized by me.

Also, I recounted and it looks like the straight pin meter in the treehouse footage is around 10. Still worth mentioning imo.
The original straight pin capacity seems more like 10 for me.
9:44 if you look at the health one of the masks looks different
The Duke of Swabian came to say hello
This is a great video on the new Silksong news, but what the heck is that footage at 7:00 !?!?
I've played Dark Souls 3 many times and there is no "Gust" spell in the game. Is this a mod? I need answers, please!
Avoiding any and all spoilers. probably a good video so here is a like
TC: "How about we make Hornet a little taller than the knight. Nothing could possibly go wrong…."
Also TC: "And you guys ask why we haven't given you any news since 2019?"
I wonder: Will there be Primal Aspids?
me waiting for mossbag to make a video on it :
Kingdom cum lol
I honestly don’t think this game could come soon enough…
Very interesting takes, rustboi!
You sound like you may have conversations with Other Barry.
I want to get a physical copy of this. Do we know the date when we can expect to find this issue in stores?
Missed? Try me bish.
Well played
points to the mechanical ant Giant Robosa
kingdom come reminds me of the lords prayer which is odd but idk
Hyperventalating
This could lead into a smash reveal, having hornet would be pretty cool
If edge releases physically in Feburary why do i have one already?
7:35 i'm pretty sure that's the animation cancel for the ledge getup.
3:31 p h a r loom
Hopefully we get a release date soon!
The S in Hollow Knight stands for Happiness
After the release of this game I can’t wait to see videos titled: Silk Song but I play as the Knight
When he said "releasing Physically in February 2021" I thought he was talking about Silksong and had a heart attack
Imagine if, instead of having a dream nail, you develop the art of music with your nail in order to help some of the bugs to break from enchantment or to challenge bugs with it in order to help them break free.
theory: the enemies in this game do more damage are are more difficult than hollow kinight because in hollow knight most of the enemies were basically zombies whereas in silksong most of the enemies seem alive.
Also quick question, why would the removal of an actual downward strike remove pogo'ing from the game? We can still pogo off stuff most likely we just have to aim diagonally now.
Someone else focus on hornet against the night in that transition and think about the terrifying that will be fighting against that speedy, empty, mercy less, little guy?
Bruh you sound majorly depressed
I’m thinking if there’s gonna be post game and what the dlc is gonna be bc there’s gotta be dlc when hollow knight had 4
I don't care if it takes another year to be developed. They want the game to be as incredible as they can make it, I get it. But GIVE US NEWS. Don't leave us in the dark for months!
I think the rosary string system is gonna be good. A very similar system was in sekiro, and it worked quite well
9:43 you mentioned early in the video that there was no pogo or downstrike move in the game, yet this screenshot seems to show just that
Rusty: “does Hornet have the capability of singing”
What I imagine Hornet singing would be like
“Ggggggiiiiiiiiiiiiiitttttttttt Guuuuuuuud!”
One thing I really like so far about this game is that it doesn’t just look like Hollow Knight 2, I like how different it is
Am I the only one that thinks the way hornet "plays" her needle looka like she is refusing to sell it to the bug she is talking to?
i cant believe rusty still didnt hit 1M subs
The hype is real
I just want to know who will be the final boss.
The ending of this video with the music made me think of how important it is to have quiet moments in games. The fact that so much of the game is centered around music has me so excited, it's perfect really! They have a great composer working with them and I feel like with such a difference between high-adrenaline moments and Hornets chill times TM, Christopher Larken can make quiet moments GOLDEN. Even more valuable than hollowknight's. I am so excited for this game 🧡
