Playing Hollow Knight's Fan Made Expansion

Pale Court is a fan made Hollow Knight expansion, mostly focused around adding new difficult bosses to the game. These bosses being the other 4 great knights of Hallownest, along with a secret 5th boss you may recognize. Hope you enjoy my playthrough, and thanks to everyone who helped make this mod a reality.

I love all the little details in this mod, like how Ze’Mer’s girlfriend stands in the background as she fights you, or all the interactions between Ogrim and Isma It feels like the backgrounds of the fights show you either what the knights want the most, or care about the most. Ze’Mer has her love in a field of delicate flowers, Hegemol stands in the bustling city that he was seemingly tasked to defend, Isma had Ogrim, and Dryya had the White Lady who she died defending

[@leohertzberg8967]

And the fact that in ZeMer's fight, the traitor lords daughter eyes follow Ze'mer istead of the knight unlike in godhome where the god seekers study you. It's a nice detail showing how she cares for Ze'mer.

[@faerykaye]

Literally when I noticed Ogrim waching over the Isma fight and Traitor's Child watching over the Ze'mer fight there was a tear in my eyes 🥺

[@Kay-ql2wl]

Im pretty sure whatever is in the background is something they’re fighting for

[@xxmension04xx47]

fits with white defender's background...he longs for his friends that have long since passed away (maybe, Hegemol's fate is unconfirmed its assumed the grub killed him...but at the same time, he might be one of the other characters considering he's fairly small) also would have been a fun addition if a godhome ze'mer didn't fight, but the traitor lord's daughter fought harnessing the essence of godhome to gain the powers her father gained through infection

[@littlefox3099]

Also how ze’mer’s girlfriend watched her. The little touches are so adorable. Love how much effort this mod has.

[@RoundusMongus]

I like how some of the attacks the five knights do are taken from Pure vessel. Dryya has a floor spear attack, Isma does a vine whip like PV’s void whip. It fleshes out the idea that the vessel learned from them.

yeah, when I first saw it I thought it was from team cherry so I think the team can really be proud of themselves for making such a beautiful and amazing mod. I'm a bit sad that I can't play it since I'm on switch but I've had a lot of fun watching everyone else play it and having so much fun. I really love being a part of the hollow knight community, it's always fun to see what great things the modding community has achieved over the years

[@Reinoiro]

I don't want to undermine this amazing effort and it's quality too, but that said i do think the bosses feel nothing like the normal game's. Each one's patterns feel off, a bit too fast, a bit unreactable or not satisfying to avoid. So i'm really more impressed with the dev team and their journey than what they actually ended up with

[@kirin8735]

@@Reinoirothey have the pace of the sisters of battle boss fight or something like NKG. I personally thing they’re good because they actually take skill to beat unlike a good portion of HKs base game bosses

[@Reinoiro]

@@kirin8735 Nkg and sisters have significantly more balanced and fair attacks. Compared to like the random full screen shockwave attacks either in the middle of Ze'mer's combos or in Hegemol fight where his attacks very quickly stack on each other, where they seriously clash with shade dash's pretty impactful cooldown. Not to mention actual healing windows. I don't think there is more than 1 or 2 max healing windows, and all of them are way too tight and scuffed. Nkg is a hard boss but despite that almost every attack has a healing window. Of course i'm not expecting fans to make something amazing and again in no way do i undermine their effort, but i just think their work here deserves a little bit more critisism

[@teathesilkwing7616]

"what is happening?" *white flash* quickly followed by the only twitch chat message visible being "good luck!" and then skurry dying was truly poetry also, when hollow knight got called the "dark souls of metroidvanias"... this mod team really took that to heart. i love seeing so many complex and interesting mechanics that only ever got used in one or two of the more difficult boss fights showing up here to really highlight hallownest's greatest warriors and their skillsets. my singular criticism would probably be with the background of the dryya fight since the white lady makes it SO hard to see what's going on, but overall its so beautifully done

[@snolls105]

Funny enough, I really loved the Isma fight but I couldn't stand the True Knight fight. Spideringling + Grubsong is really good against Isma since the spiders don't have much issue killing the plants and the soul refill is really helpful. I really like running Quick Focus + Shape of Unn. That combo is actually also really good against Grey Mourner since you can just outrun her while also healing (especially during the earlier phases). QF+Unn is also nice into Isma because the projectiles and mobs are pretty avoidable with only horizontal movements and Isma won't run you down, especially during the phase where she vine. But yeah, between those three, Isma was my favorite. She felt like she hit this really nice sweet spot where she was complicated enough to not be boring but not too complicated to be overwhelming. The fight just felt incredibly fair. Which those two things together are hard to make in a bullet-spam fight (especially so in something like Hollow Knight where the character lacks consistent ranged options). Like, almost all of the base-game enemy spam and bullet-spam fights just felt really boring. The only exception to that was Radiance (and potentially Absrad, I never fought her tho). I haven't seen the other bosses yet tho and I don't want to spoil myself.
