Linklight returns to the workshop for Rivals of Aether which gives you access to custom new characters or mods! In this video I check out Hollow Knight. An absolute treat to play with lots of references to the original game! Very faithful to the original. The AI on this character is really cool, so stay tuned for the sequel!

You should have seen the a.i on hollow knight it’s killed kris

[@E_Fig05]

The shielding animation is actually a reference to one of the charms that allows you to have a shield while healing. As someone who's played the actual game I love all the references.

[@E_Fig05]

Also Linklight is correct, the Knight would find himself fighting Peppino. It's practically canon.

As a HollowKnight player, I can confirm that I went 💀

And when they call the player the hollow knight 💀💀

[@КачыбековаАлия]

as a person who has 104% in hollow knight i died every timeyou call "the knight" "hollow knight" (and i'm typing it from sisters account)

[@connorconnorconnor650]

I mean, he's technically correct. Considering the fact that the Knight shows no true emotion in the game and the actual "Hollow Knight" wasn't even actually hollow (which is why the Radiance could wreak the havoc it did), it makes sense to call him the Hollow Knight, or the "true" Hollow Knight. Also in the 1st and 2nd endings the Knight serves the role of the new Hollow Knight.

[@Nico_com_c]

With that said, would be pretty cool if they added the pure vessel(The hollow knight)

[@victorvirgili4447]

@@connorconnorconnor650If the Knight was perfectly hollow, or even just more hollow than the Hollow Knight, the Pale King wouldn’t have discarded him. Endings 1 and 2 are just repeating what the HK did, but for less time

[@AshenDust_]

There were 5 lore inaccuracies in the first 6 seconds lol

[@AshenDust_]

⁠@@connorconnorconnor650 there’s a lot of evidence that points to the knight having a mind to think and a will to break, if not a voice.

[@yousseftamer4943]

As a Hollow Knight player, I can confirm that the knight met Peppino and that I’m definitely not gaslighting you into believing this actually happened, cuz it definitely actually happened

[@Nico_com_c]

I cried so much when the pale king destroyed pillar Jhon

[@remekmix]

There is a mod for that

[@NekoEchoflower]

4:40 The special attacks are the spells you use in the game. They require soul to use, which is the meter ya got down there. The black equivelents are after upgrading them with void. Shooting to the side is Vengeful spirit (upgrade: Shadesoul) downwards is Desolate dive (upgrade: Descending dark) and upwards is Howling Wraiths (upgrade: Abyss shriek) So it isn't really a "puff of air" heheh-

[@Deviousgoober69]

The neutral air is from the charm thorns of agony to put it simple when you get hit your void tendrils lash out and do a aoe sorta

[@andrewmeyer2493]

I can confirm, there are many points in Hollow Knight at which you fight an Italian man with a rat in the background

[@M_GR.1]

Bros gonna scream git gud everytime he wins 💀

[@dertpert]

Hahaha

[@CopperCadwyn]

btw whether or not you spend meter depends on if you hold the input

[@CalamitasBrimstoneWitch]

FUCK YES, HOLLOW KNIGHT! :D Fun fact #1- The charge is called Soul. Fun fact #2- The MC of Hollow Knight is usually called Little Ghost. The Hollow Knight is the 2nd-to-last boss in the True Ending. Fun fact #3- I recognized pogos, DDark, the Beetleshell charm thing, the soul blast upwards, the spin move, and the bench!

[@HajpeQ123]

The main character's name is actually "The Knight" canonically.

[@ng42.]

the main character actually doesn't even have a name.

[@victorvirgili4447]

Little Ghost is what Hornet calls them

[@Cr1ms0n_K1n]

@@ng42. yes they do have a name they are called "the knight" buddy, so do research!

[@cookieloverakeemi]

6:11 yep, as a true Hollow Knight fan, i can confirm something like this happens to The Knight every Wednesday.

[@sooji_gooji]

the infamous skins are only available for any DLC characters you've bought before rivals made them free in the definitive edition (clairen, ranno, sylvanos, elianna, ori and shovel knight). so it's basically a bonus for any og players who purchased the dlc

[@kingnightmaredustx6516]

Hollow knight is hard to beat without a fast projectile character :)

[@Deviousgoober69]

You mean "the knight"

[@LuisAngeel07]

Fun fact, you can do damage with the bench from the taunt

[@corbincarroll1343]

It definitely had part in the game where hollow knight was in the pizza situation

[@kry3s]

Battle cats music hits hard

[@RepeatSalt]

Agreed, the game hits hard too

[@niknikitin2552]

Just looking for this comment

[@boydisaster6817]

Same

[@sample_text9276]

Hollow Knight players desperately trying not to comment on every inconsistency. Oh yeah and as a Hollow Knight in the comments I can confirm that The Knight often finds themself facing off against the Italian legend Peppino with a giant rat in the background munching on some pizza. You wouldn't understand understand unless you've played it and Linklight is not lying to you.

[@atsmay47]

for me in my opinion he's very great

[@DiegoG2004]

The Knight is sooo fun. You can actually pogo off people and also do ladder combos with the down air sour spot.

[@coldpizza283]

No way, this mod Is too cool, i Wish i had Rivals of Eather

[@goooooooooooooose]

As a Hollow Knight player, it killed me every time he called The Knight “The Hollow Knight”.

References go crazy! I like how they added thorns of agony asa thing and in the details by the developers they show sharp shadow,how they involved nail arts!It is just amazing

[@GoingBizark]

I can hear the Battle Cats Music There's like 3 or more I haven't finished watching yet

[@BorisEdiacarov-ui8sk]

the knight isn't brave and doesn't have a dream. It's a soulless vessel

[@mariemartin6612]

"A little insect with a dream and courage" meanwhile the lore: "no will to break, no mind to think, no voice to cry suffering" Edit:btw the hollow knight is a different character and this is just "the knight" Edit again: also they have they/them pronouns

[@Rosareo.larocca]

4:44 Howling Wraiths Its a powerful attack and he can attack on more distance, it’s the version whit out the dark ABYSS SHRIEK Is ( for me ) the most powerful spell, he help me to to kill Absolute Radiance on solar mode and he is the version more powerful of the Howling Wraiths, he is 3 times more powerful of the pure nail ( don’t try to doit on this mode, literally I beat on 1 moth lol )
