@@Vespyr_ I quite agree on that one

It's just that PoP was released before Godmaster DLC (Added in Grimm Troupe DLC.) PV was added after PoP was released, which ended up in Godmaster DLC
I feel like Pure Vessel was originally meant for this place. There was so much build up to the end of the path of pain with the final platforming challenge, the music swelling, and the long drop into the arena. To just have it filled with two king's molds feels like an afterthought. The Pure Vessel has the perfect color scheme for it, it is technically a memory so it would make some sense lore wise, and it provides a good final challenge at the end of PoP. When I beat it the first time, I felt cheated. I got a cool thing of lore, but that's it. The King's Molds were not a challenge and it felt like a waste of time. If the Pure Vessel was at the end, it would make the PoP feel worthwhile.
EDIT: my views do not represent what this comment implies anymore. As a lot of comments have explained to me, this logic is flawed. I suggest scrolling through the comments as they provide a lot of insight into this topic that my smooth brain couldn’t come up with the first time.
@Bughana Fair enough. I do have to admit I was being a bit close minded when writing that comment. I was mostly writing it out of pure dissatisfaction when beating PoP. It just seemed to be building up to so much more than just two kings molds. But I have to understand that most people are not seeking ridiculous challenge and anxiety at the end. It’s an already rage inducing section of the game and to have all of your progress melted away by one of the hardest bosses in the game would be infuriating. I will try to keep an open mind the next time I post something like this. Thank you for the criticism. P.S. I’m actually fucking terrible at the game, I just enjoy throwing my head against the wall multiple times :)
@Bughana agreed
You brag about your accomplishments by posting a video that gets 3k views, duh. Hehe, but seriously though, I agree that it should have an achievement
@Nicholas Seagal maybe if they slapped a shortcut at the end so you didn’t need to redo it all to fight in the final room
@Bughana to be clear, I have not beaten PoP nor beaten the 1st pantheon but I think he’s right, they could just make a breakable wall at the end that connects to the beginning of PoP afterwards
I know the path to no hit was extremely painful (hah) but it's extremely soothing watching Ghost go through here like it's just a stroll through the park.
Hey it's painful but it's so worth it. It's incredibly satisfying actually completing it, and watching me do it. Even now, I can watch some of the more difficult things I've done and go "wait what the fuck was that, no way I actually no hit that"
Knight in gameplay vs Knight in lore
@@DanEgbert I know how you feel mate 😂 I get the same feeling.
Man’s just waking up to get a drink of water
I imagine he went through worse under the pale king's judgement
This is irrelevant, I know, but who else agrees that Pure Vessel is an extremely tragic take on "Nothing is Impossible"?
Explain
@@theconsumerofpenguins81 You can't create a something that is nothing, therefore the goal of creating a completely empty being, or a "Pure Vessel" is impossible to achieve.
@@KenzieWalker-h2c I think the point of the vessels was not to literally be nothing, but to have absolutely no sentience whatsoever for the radiance to control, and be made of void to perfectly contain it.
@@Doge-rv3vd Exactly my point. They were meant to be made out of complete nothingness inside.
@@KenzieWalker-h2c from my point of view the void in hollow knight is different from the void that we think about because in hollow knight it's more of a physical thing that can create things that don't have a mind, voice and don't feel because it's all void and not a real being These void beings can be given a mind by someone who spends time with the void being (like pale king)
This could be as simple or complex as giving it a decision or teaching it how to fight and it's not clear when the pure vessel got a mind but there is 4 places/events I can think of where it might of happened
1. The birthplace
2. The Path of pain cutseen
3. When it was taught how to use a nail/focus/any other ability it has
4. Any time anyone had Long conversations to the pure vessel
This is all just speculation though built on my perspective on the hollow knight so this may all be wrong.

Keep trying man, it’s a pain in the ass, but soon you will get it down. I know it’s been almost a month since it so you might have done it already, but if you haven’t, good luck.
You know i think this perfect place for pure vessel and path of pain been coolerst when pure vessel been in end
It would have looked cool but it would be as hard as it would be to beat it to fit this into the lore
@@falon5750, how so? The whole place is practically a memory, it wouldn’t be too difficult to explain that the pure vessel at it’s prime was sealed away, or at least the memory of it’s strength.
@@judgment5090 well, the PoP locks away the Pale king showing affection? Whereas the Pure Vessel is something that the king desired, so that memory wouldn't really have any reason to be sealed i guess.
It would’ve been cool, but wouldn’t make sense due to the lore. Why would pure vessel be without his father? Why is he still there? So yea, it doesn’t work.
@@mrchonks6607 you know, a pure vessel could be something like a guardian of the memory of the white palace, and supposedly after defeating it, you open that cutscene with a small vessel and a king, or you could beat it so that the whole path of pain is supposedly the path of a pure vessel and at the end the battle with him should reveal his memory and memories to you, as for me this does not destroy the lore of the game, but on the contrary makes the path of pain a part of the plot lore and not just an add-on for masochists and speedrunners in the game)
Dude I had to go through this living nightmare twice just because I did it on the wrong save file
This would've been really neat to see in the actual path of pain, but I can completley understand why they didn't. Path of pain is hard enough, throwing pure vessel in their too might've been a bit much
I think it would have been. Give us a checkpoint after the kingmoulds and then a room with pure vessel.
Pure Vessel tried very hard to be hollow, so it makes sense for him to be protecting the memory that made him fail. It just makes sense for him to be here. I hate how he just pops in the pantheon.
@meneither3834 at that point its just another boss, removing the whole pain aspect. No checkpoints for you.
@@Vepzzzzznah thats a trash take, pv with a bench and a stag station (because who wants to go back through the path in reverse??) after the PoP would be godtier
@@baggedbread stag station after fight, sounds good. But adding a checkpoint before the boss is big cringe and you should just be better :P
@@Vepzzzzz one of the worst takes on gaming ive heard in my life my dude
he has a flower from the flower quest this man is doing path of pain with the most fragile thing in the game
Makes me wish we got to meet Hollow as something besides a boss, but as an ally and a brother apologizing for leaving Ghost behind.
Quit drugs
We can have it, albeit for just a moment! In the ending where we face The Radiance and they help us by holding her still for the final blow - it always felt like the make-older-sibling-proud closure we yearn for .
Showing the delicate flower at the very end is the biggest flex lmao. I've seen this vid a few times now and only just noticed that now. Nice one man ;)
That place would be perfect for our first encounter with pure vessel. But path of pain is already painfull enough

This should really be known as “The Path of Paranoia”
You know, a lot of people are saying "Pure Vessel would have been so perfect here but it would have been too unfair!" and I wonder if like... the Pure Vessel was originally easier, and got buffed for the Pantheons?
I think he could have been a replacement for the great knight who died in Queen's Gardens. We were originally supposed to fight her, so they gave us his battle instead.
@@Dominikowski12345 I'm assuming you mean moveset-wise? Because if so, that would honestly be pretty cool, even if it would be weird that Fierce Dryya had such a similar moveset to the Hollow Knight. Then again, they were likely both trained in combat by the same people...
I finished path of pain today, and I dont want do do it ever again.
4:09 turning on cheats xD
this path of pain with a boss for lore makes it hard since you need to fight him and defeat him for one of the god mode pantheon of the knight
Not really! Considering The Pure Vessel is an end-of-pantheon boss, you don’t have to fight them in the main campaign. Their statue in the Hall of Gods is unlocked the moment you encounter them in P4. They’re just like Nightmare King Grimm in that sense - you don’t have to battle against NKG to fight him in the Pantheons, he’s unlocked by simply finding them there (if I’m remembering correctly). Plus Godtamer, for whatever reason, also doesn’t have to be killed. But that one doesn’t make much sense.
@@overthinkit_ yeah its weird, but just "encountering" the boss will put it in the hall of gods for some reason. you dont have to defeat them. no idea why, but ig it helps for practice (so if you die to a pantheon specific boss you dont have to do the entire pantheon again to get to them).
im not 100% sure if this works for every boss, but i think it does?
Path of pain was painful but in the end beating it felt amazing
Yeah but then you get the shit ending that makes you feel as if it was all for nothing, sure a slice of lore and a journal entry Is nice but for something as trying as path of pain. I felt cheated when I finally finished it.
I read the thumbnail as
Knight: Diet!
Hollow knight: WTF
🤣🤣🤣
When I first reach the white palace it felt like an the most difficult possible platforming challenge. It felt so good to reach the end.
But then the pantheons and path of pain revealed themselves before me. It took all of my polished skills and hundreds of attempts to barely reach 0:20, sadly that's where I found my limit at this game.
I'm just baffled by the insane level of skill necessary to beat PoP. I take my hat off to you.
I can recommend NOT to give up! I did the path of pain over 2 years ago and I need 14 hours to get past 0:20. No joke. I don't know what was wrong there but I just couldn't do it. After I finally passed this I completed the whole rest of path of pain in 3 hours, I died 2 times at the guards at the end so I had to start over and on my third playthrough of path of pain I did the complete path in 30mins.
I managed to do it in just an hour, it's much easier than you think trust me
Did the entire PoP in three hours. Just a bit of patience and perseverance will get you far
Watching TAS is cool, I love it, but knowing that there's someone actually playing like this, makes me appreciate the video on a whole different level.
Well done, sir. Well done.
TAS?
no cap path of pain made me cry for the first time in years, took me 114 attempts
Just pick hiveblood
It took me only 1 attempt TvT'
You all have to admit that after path of pain you became a pogo god or at least felt like one
PoP forces you to become better at pogoing, so yeah it kinda just makes you better at the game lol
3:41
Я (Чистый Сосуд):
Муха которая случайно залетела ко мне в комнату (Призрак):
I can’t even imagine having to fight pure vessel after path of pain
Imagine jumping in the spikes 5:27😱
As a "normal" player I just laugh watching how easy this looks after the 13+ tries it took me. The jump at the end was excruciating to get right. Riding that last saw blade and have all the movement, height and double jump to start bouncing off the saw blade above at the end looks easy but for me was rather painful.
Hey don't worry about it, what this video doesn't show is all the failed attempts I did to get this one good one
More like a 1000 plus tries
13 tries? Normal? Okay
I'm pretty sure that I took more then 40 tries...
Wow, I thought I just finished Hollow Knight but you just showed me how good someone can actually get at the game. Incredible! Makes me want to keep playing and attempt to master this game as you clearly have. I know you’re excited for Silk Song.
You should check fireborn guys insane.
Imagine if you actually had to fight pure vessel instead of two kings moulds
As someone who spent a REALY long time on Path of Pain I can confidently say that this should be in the game normally. Sure, I would probably take multiple breaks where I do nothing but watch slice of life anime to make my happiness return.... But damn would it be amazing.
Keep the Kingsmould but give us a checkpoint, then after them we get to pure Vessel.
Good thing I refused to even start it, saving my nerves. I chose the path of wise.
Idk if you're confused or not but Pure Vessel doesn't appear there normally, it's two King's Moulds that appear, this is modded
@@AomiChron Probably talking about the platforming, which, I don't blame him. That journal entry and that cutscene can suck a fat one.
Pure vessel music gives me ptsd from when I tried to beat p4-
Honestly pure vessel should be at the end of path of pain it makes so much sense. The pure form of the hollow Knight defending his most cherished memory. Now, the insane skill it takes to beat path or pain combined with the insane skill it takes to beat pure vessel, in completely different sections of the game, makes it a bit unfair.. so maybe there should be a bench before the fight so players (including me) don’t go insane trying to beat it.. it’s not called path of pain for nothing.
I used to think the pure vessel was an actual boss in this area so I put on unnecessary battle charms before doing the path of pain
My first time on the pain path, I must have died 100 times.
Hiveblood is the key ;)
Compare that to celeste death counts
@@Fahimlol except that in celeste you die in one hit
@@don_kixotejoga whats the difference? When you hit spike in hollow knight you simply dont just take damage, you fall out of the map or something and respawn on the previous checkpoint
@@Fahimlol Yes,but if you actually DIE,you respawn at the closest bench and have to repeat the entire Path o Pain
The spikes only gives 1 damage,and in celeste it kills you instantly
They're not that different though
by the way, for those who haven't understood it (like me in my first run) the path of pain contains the most precious thing about Halloween:
the memory of the king (pale king) of having failed, of having failed to protect his kingdom and preserve it, for this reason who would have reached that point and because it is true, that entity has proven to know it, because it is with this that the kingdom had fallen into ruin
To this day I can not believe I was able to do this. Of course it was not hitless. It was not hitless for my controler as well, but I am proud of myself every time I watch some go through that hell.
I think it'd be awesome if Sealed Vessel cut out when you see the Pure Vessel, but the Kingsmoulds fight theme at the end of the base game's path of pain plays when the Pure Vessel fight begins.
(And yes, I know that the Kingsmoulds theme and the Sealed Vessel theme are one and the same. I hope you know what I mean)
I'll never forget this music.... Never
This guy must be really good at super mario maker
Never played it unfortunately
@@DanEgbert then u might be really good at it
No way ...no way ...even if I play hollow knight for 20000 hours I still wouldn't be able to do that
5:03
Insane dodge my dude
I don't think I understand how a human could be this good at this.
The delicate flower at the end tho-
this is like the pure vessel is trying to shamefully hide their most precious memory- the proof of their failure as a hollow knight.
bench before the drop and pure vessel would make sense as the end boss
Even though it's hard as peck and makes nearly every other boss look like cakewalk, it feels like Pure Vessel would be a more proper boss for Path of Pain, lorewise.
And besides, with the infinite SOUL Refill prior to the fight and the existence of Hall of Gods, you'd eventually be able to get enough practice and enter the fight with full SOUL and masks
There is something therepeutic about watching this hitless run.
They knew EXACTLY what they were doing when they placed those mandala foreground effects...
4:41 that spike almost destroy all my faith
This whole time i was sure you were clipping the video and stuff but the moment you showed the delicate flower my jaw genuinely dropped open. Dude
bro even got down to the abyss without taking any damage & without stags daammnnn
Anyone else think it makes a lot of sense to fight pure vessel at the end of path of pain or is it just me?
I think,too
"911 what is your emergency?"
My path of pain has no pain 💀
If it used the final phase of the path of pain music this would be insanely epic
not sure my bodily vessel could withstand the purgatory one must endure to achieve this level of mastery
if the knight itself did pop without a player:
I have done path of pain in two hours today. I know that area is associated with hardcore platforming but I had SO MUCH FUN! And I would like to have pure vessel at the end - this boss is one of my favourite

Hey, Bro!!!
Congratulations for your work.
Awesome Gameplay and outstanding abilities!
Keep it going and your success will great!!!
Imagine you actually had to do this at the end
Makes sense that the Pale King would leave behind an illusion of his supposedly perfect vessel to guard the memory that shows why it became impure. It's like to understand why the Hollow Knight was impure, you must first defeat the illusion that it was ever pure at all.
You don’t know, maybe the cat gave you more confident :D!
Alternate title: Pure vessel protects his baby pictures.
Impressive, but can you kill a primal aspid without wayward compass
Woah now, you want Dan to spend eternity on this task diving into insanity because it can't be that hard?
Because that's literally impossible, mate.
the path of pain should be inside of the pure vessel like the dream bosses because technically its his memory
I'm trying to figure out why you were pausing during pv, is it showing you're not using invincibility?
I say it in the description, but my cat kept jumping onto my desk when the fight started so I had to pause to take her off. She loves jumping on my desk late at night, so just unfortunate timing
