It's really cool seeing myself in chat and even having one of my stupid questions answered. I was being a bit spammy wasn't I lol. I distinctly remember falling asleep while you were grinding hoppers lmao
New viewer here and I gotta say, I really love your content. Skillful gameplay, interesting choice of runs and a very soothing voice/personality have quickly made you one of my favourite content creators. I'm not even the biggest fan of (watching) Hollow Knight, having only beaten it once shortly after release, but you make it really enjoyable somehow. I especially loved your 'Naming Every Grub' video, as it's just something cute and silly I would've totally done as a kid. I tend to watch your videos before/in bed and I've already fallen asleep to them a few times. Which is great, because I usually have trouble sleeping. Also, Very interesting music choice for the montage, what a bop. I literally haven't thought about March of the Minis in 5 years. Honest thanks for reminding me it exists, I need to play it again.
My thoughts exactly. It would have made collecting the Geo so much easier since he could focus on killing the hoppers while the little good boys bring the Geo to him. He'd just have to make sure he waits for the Geo to reach him before going through room transitions.
1) Sly isn't the only person selling things. Outside the collapse of their civilization, bugs could trade Geo with whomever they meet, not just in a shop in a town. 2) Infected bugs may continue to collect Geo out of habit, as someone is chat said. This can include both on the bodies of people they kill, random cash deposits someone hid, or even pulled from stone walls. 3) If an infected or carnivorous bug killed someone, they probably have a quantity of Geo in their gut. The cash literally spills out of them when killed.
Its kinda cool to have a audience to grind with. As a kid there was so many nights alone grinding and grinding. Be it that 1 high exp/gold battle for your lvl range in an rpg, or hoping for a certain item drop. Finally getting it/there and feeling that accomplishment alone. Ppl being there for it definately make the burden more tolorable
As someone who just started playing hollow knight seeing this guy’s ability to get around the map so gracefully is mesmerizing. I wish I knew the controls that well.

That doesn't say much about how fast you are. I think I was at like over 20 hours before I even found the crystal heart, but by then I had done pretty much everything that you could do with the mantis claw, so everything else went relatively fast. It's been month so I don't remember when I reached 107%, but I don't think I was that slow. My last playthrought was 100% steel soul, it took me about 8 hours.
Nobody else knows the origin of the montage music. Ultimate respect for another well-cultured gamer. (The words Mini and Madness should be enough proof)
Also this makes me wonder, what is the highest amount of Geo you can hold at once, and why isn't there a speedrun dedicated to it? Also AllRelics% and AllEggs% has to happen.
@12:00 "So this grind was a lot easier than the bird grind." I'll bet that's because hoppers are jerks and birds are friends... and no other reason. ;) That was some nice editing. The fan art was also really funny.
Hoppers is also how i grinded for unbreakable in my first play through and i figured it was the worst way to it but seeing a speedrunner who is good at this game say that it's at least somewhat optimal makes me feel validated. My wrists hurt so much after doing all that grinding 😭 glad I've never had to do it again
I always thought that the more animalistic enemies have geo because they ate it, either mistaking it for food or because they're starving. A lot of Dream Nail dialog suggests that they're hungry or want food, and the infection reduces even them to their base instincts. Geo could even be mistaken for seeds or smaller shelled prey items, and ingested that way too. Vengefly King is shown to canonically be eating Zote, it's large enough to prey upon unsuspecting sentient (and formally sentient) bugs. The reason why it 'has' so much geo could just be because it's preyed upon wandering husks who themselves carry geo from their old lives, other unfortunate travelers who probably have a bit more geo in their pockets, and smaller animalistic bugs like mosscreeps, crawlids and tiktiks. It's the same way that my pet snake 'had' a twenty dollar bill because it ate my coin purse once. (furry+warm=rat=food to snake brain, apparently.) All that geo was just what was currently jingling around in it's digestive track. -(Beating a giant angry fly to death to get the money is a lot easier than trying to coax a 12 foot snake to please vomit up the coin purse please my divers licenses is in there I can't drive you to the vet without it the police officer who would pull me over would never believe me.)- This...doesn't really explain other larger megafauna around Hallownest however. Vengefly King is clearly a predator, but Gruzz Mother, the Shoomal Ogres, and Massive Moss Charger clearly aren't. I have no idea why they'd drop a large amount of geo upon death.
