Whats Happening with Crowsworn?

Crowsworn has had a strangely difficult life cycle. From being called a carbon copy of Hollow Knight to the developers themselves being called fake and hacks, so join my on a journey to discover just what on inkwell isle 4 is happening with this game, how they are designing boss lore/fights and why it might be my most anticipated metroidvania ever.

[@thisisntevenmyfinalform6814]

whenever I hear about a crowdfunded game getting a stupid amount of money I genuinely hope they don't expand their vision based on the money. often times the feature creep that that amount of money brings is what causes so many of these projects to fall flat, instead I hope they keep their vision as is and use the money simply to get some better equipment and make their work schedule a bit more flexible

[@geepike]

And they could use the extra $ to develop DLC after release, and give it to backers free if they wanted to. Despite hating comparing everything to Hollow Knight, that’s something they did super well IMO… a good sized game was expanded a fuck ton after the fact and the game as we love it now was created over time not rushed or crammed with bs to appease anyone.

[@anthonytitone]

Well luckily they had tier goals so theoretically each extra bit of money would simply go to things they promised like a boss rush mode at 200k, voice acting at 375k, new levels for a few tiers, animated cutscenes at 1 mill & so on. They seem to have it planned out well so as far as kickstarters go I’m not too worried about feature creep

[@Zacatk23]

Tbh from what I know (which isn't much) a lot of developers would maybe even start all over again knowing they have more time to make everything better and bigger, I don't see that as a bad thing, that's why that much money is dangerous as he said in the video and could be overwhelming, but people would definitely criticize if it lacks content for the amount of money they gave

[@waddlelad1718]

they dunk on the devs yet they seem to ignore teamcherry had similar issues but didnt handle it well like how the crowsworn devs did

[@superbeta1716]

Because it copies too much from HK, see 0:33 dive and 3:18 godhome looking room, it's good to take inspiration from games but things like this just cross the line, even if the gameplay is unique the style of the game is waaay to similar which is something each game should have on it's own

[@waddlelad1718]

@@Loderyod yeah but so are other games like enter gungeon and death road to Canada, but yet you don't see people dunking on them. even though they are also the same game genre I just think that if people are going to be overly critical towards crowsworn they should also be the same towards other games where a similar thing happens. but I just seems like people can't handle the fact that hollow knight isn't the only metroidvania allowed to exist.

[@LighthoofDryden]

Love your takes. People who accuse things of being ripoffs generally don’t know what the ripped-off thing “ripped off.”There is nothing truly new in the world of game mechanics, aesthetics, story, music, or sound. If you’re looking for similarities, you’ll always find them.

[@La0bouchere]

Seems overly reductionist. Games share parts all the time, what makes something a rip-off is how similar it is holistically to other things. It's kinda silly to imply that people are specifically looking for reasons to call this a ripoff when plenty of people wouldn't even be able to tell the difference between this and hk

[@photonic083]

I don't care if the game is a hollow knight clone or not, I care if the game is good.

[@Sevorion]

As crazy as this is, I think I'm equally excited for Crowsworn and Hollow Knight Silksong. This game looked incredible from the first trailer, and it continues to impress with every new video or artwork that we get to see! Great video, hopefully they can continue to deal with the pressure of having so much support and deliver a fantastic end product.

[@superbeta1716]

0:33 dive 3:18 godhome looking ass room 3:31 spikes. This is no genre thing, this is straight up Hollow Knight looking things. We all know the gameplay and combat is unique but the game has to separate that art style and design from HK, trying to defend the game while showing those scenes looks really bad, the rest (at least 99%) of the inspired from HK games have unique art style and designs, this game sadly sometimes looks like a reskin HK and it really doesn't deserve it

[@brunksbr]

[@obitosenju3768]

​@@superbeta1716 I think you do not understand how a 2d game works. Creating 2D backgrounds requires them to not pop out too much, have no clutter and still be atmospheric and fitting in a gothic world. Having a dark lit room with yellow colours is not a hollow knight thing. It is how you create the gothic church atmosphere. If anything this place looks more like forest of bones

[@carby6831]

I like pretty much every take in this video. Crowsworn doesn't seem like a clone at all because it takes inspiration from multiple different places. Devs should take as long as they need when making a game in order to make it good because frankly there is no shortage of great indie games right now so they should try to make it stand out or people won't play it. Boss fights being a representation of their environment is a cool concept but I get how it can get stale after a few bosses or even if the boss is too much like the enemies in that area like the mossy charger boss in greenpath.

[@enricolabarile]

I think people are mostly upset by the fact this game has clearly copied HK's art style. Just because you are talented enough to copy somebody else's style, it doesn't make it okay to profit from that style, because developing an art style is a very complex task that requires time and money. The devs are effectively sparing money and time by not developing their own art style and taking the one from HK, without Team Cherry consenting to it (as far as I understand). The fact that this game might be effectively fun to play is irrelevant to the point.

[@sierpes9475]

Talking about upcoming metroidvanias, i would like to have an update by the devs of The Last Faith, It IS one of the games i am more hyped about. Crowsworn seems to be much more alive. And i wanted to ask you: do yo think Meifumado IS a scam?

[@PolyTee]

The main reason why people are saying it’s a ripoff is because of all the lighting, art design, the way the layers are set up for the background, is directly from hollow night or at least way too heavy of inspiration for it to be called original art design. I still think it’s going to be original as in fights and boss design as well as story hopefully, but the art is definitely something that was taken straight from hollow knight.

Fun fact that all the hollow knight “protectors” seems to miss, one of my all time favorite games Salt and Sanctuary, came out BEFORE Hollow Knight and shares quite a few similarities. However having played both games you don’t see me screeching about how they copied S&S (To clarify, they didn’t). I respect and love both games and I think new games like Crowsworn, (Which also seems to be taking some inspiration from S&S) deserve a fair shot.

I want to add to the shovel knight boss design theory, a boss fight could also be a counter to the enemies in the area. So like if the enemies are focused on range, the boss could the about closing the gap. Basically, a boss that is designed to be able to kill the enemies before it. So maybe it can be like a boss fight about not only the tactics you learned before hand, but also on how to counter counters?? I don’t know how to properly explain this, maybe it did make sense?

Crowsworn looks like a great game, i especially like the what looks like upgrading your weapon which appears to be a gun, the biggest problem i have is that some the locations look very similar to hollow knight to the point where i would count it as copying it from hollow knight, one example is what looks like a spiders nest (youll never guess which area i think it looks like) which appears on 3:21, it looks very similar to everyones favorite place, deepnest ,especially near the beasts den, although i do see alot of original areas. despite the little amount of issues i have with it, it looks great, and ill definitely buy it, i also like that there looks like there will be more abilities or atleast more movement focused abilities, and the "grafting" system looks interesting!

I know it’s been out for a while, in fact I’ve owned it for a while but I’ve only recently started playing Hollow Knight (was never a Metroidvania guy but now I’m loving them) and I didn’t realize HK had become one of my favorite games until about halfway through this video… Side note; I saw a very short trailer for crowsworn a long time ago, didn’t remember the name and have been looking for it ever since because it looked like DMC.

I really hope it comes out at all, I'm just happy to maybe be playing another fantastic game!

Can we get a list of games shown? Perhaps with timestamps?

[@Zero_de_Nova]

My faith is still high! Let my Boss be shown to strike them down. PS: The boss you showed was one from the bakers.

[@Pogobro]

yeah I know, Ive talked to the devs about sharing backer posts and they said they dont really mind. I am making sure I dont overshare anything, there have already been bosses etc show that I havent featured. But to be fair the more I show hopefully the more hype for the game that generates!

[@Zero_de_Nova]

@@Pogobro Jup. I really hope many will find a great Community through this game.

Haters: "Ugh, it's just like Hollow Knight, just a different setting." Me: "Wait, it's like Hollow Knight but has a different setting with different lore and stuff? Hell yeah!" I love metroidvanias. Them and roguelikes are my favorite genres of game. I know I'll enjoy this as much as I enjoyed Hollow Knight and Ender Lilies.

[@andorvandelinde-cz8ln]
