That part where the spears came out of the floor? I was stuck for *TWO DAYS* on that nightmare. Just that one part. I left my laptop on for entire days to make absolutely certain I didn't lose my spot.
this reminds me of old Phantasy Star Zero, with the damn post-game giant 100 floor tower that you had to complete in one run but if you left or died you started from the first floor, so the only way to do it was to leave your DS open and on a charger.
Wow i thought i had it bad... it took me a day to complete the whole path and i also almost got stuck at the god darn flippin spears? Wow... i feel bad.
this reminds me of something funny i left my laptop on for a day on the quit to main menu room when i woke up and opened hollow knight i accidentally clicked yes i had to do the entire thing all over again also i died 3 total times to the kingsmould
It took me like 1-2 hours to make it to this part, I got stuck on it for several hours and then left my PC on overnight. In the morning I continued and managed to make it through, just to die to the kingsmoulds. Felt bad. But then it took me just 15 minutes to make it back and defeat them.
Haha, yeah! Imagine...it'd be like, SO crazy if someone were to spend 8 hours getting through the whole path of pain, have full health at the end, and still die there because they got too anxious and had to spend another 2 hours going all the way back. That'd be kinda funny, like, if that were- if that were to, uh, happen to somebody. In theory.
I replayed PoP a few days ago for fun. I completely underestimated minibossfight. I had one mask for most of the fight. Never been so scared. Luckily for me, I first-tried them both times I did it so no suffering

I hate how the music makes it seem like your just chillin in a pause menu, but in reality your entire body is uncontrollably shaking for the entirety of this area.
Believe it or not, you were the reason i ever even found out about Hollow Knight, this year's summer sale i finally got it, and today i made my way through this, honestly, even though you're probably the reason i'm deaf (I'm joking i can hear just fine) , thank you for making me find out about this wonderful game
I did 2 tries. First one took me 6+ hours, 3 of those were spent on the last section alone. Died to the kingsmolds. Second try was the next day, took me 2 hours for the whole thing.
Took me 10 hours but only because I died, killed Grimm for another notch, came back, got to the last room, then my PC crashed, took a short break, and did it again
I can imagine myself breaking the controller and then my laptop and then every window in the house and then every human being who even dared to speak to me... I WANT TO SEE THE WORLD BURN...
I don't know why, but this is one of my favorite videos to watch if I'm sad, because you can see the gears turning in their head. When they stop on a part for a few seconds, thinking about how to move, planning their course and finding the path to go through and plotting how to do it, then they go for it and it grinds to a halt on a bass boosted saw blade and it's great. Makes me feel like my attempts and eventual completion were worth it, just to see, feel, and understand the pain others experience going through it
I don’t know, after getting screwed twice by the Kingsmoulds and having to go through the whole path three times I could probably do it without the soul wells now lol, that was an AWFUL punish to live through
I remember first doing this cuz I thought I just found a neat little path That neat little path then sucked out 2-3 hours of my day..........damn spear hallways...
@@finnaginary941 as far as i know, not unless you want the full run of the Pantheon for the final possible ending after doing basically EVERYTHING in the game. There's a souped up version of every boss in the Pantheon and in order to get the final possible ending you gotta beat them all, and a reprisal of Nightmare King Grimm is one of them. if you dont care about that though, you're fine not fighting him. i only suggest it cause once you get his patterns down its a tense, difficult, assholic but _thrilling as hell_ fight.

I hate how the music makes it seem like your just chillin in a pause menu, but in reality your entire body is uncontrollably shaking for the entirety of this area.
Congratulations you just triggered a Vietnam flashback
music starts: Ah Shoot, Here we go Again.
I'm watching this with headphones, wish me luck.

OOF
Me too

I did and there was no problems

I'm glad i'm not the only one who went from 40 to 200 deaths at the last part, genuinely took a rage nap after 100 something hits
Believe it or not, you were the reason i ever even found out about Hollow Knight, this year's summer sale i finally got it, and today i made my way through this, honestly, even though you're probably the reason i'm deaf (I'm joking i can hear just fine) , thank you for making me find out about this wonderful game
MADLAD
my total hits were 443 and 2 death
actually, I died at the end of the pain path... TWICE
SO SAD
I have no idea how many hits I had, but it took me 4 hours to complete. 0 deaths but I very nearly died at the kingsmolds.
I did 2 tries. First one took me 6+ hours, 3 of those were spent on the last section alone. Died to the kingsmolds. Second try was the next day, took me 2 hours for the whole thing.
@@jjtomecek1623 4hs? 8 hours for me XD
Took me 10 hours but only because I died, killed Grimm for another notch, came back, got to the last room, then my PC crashed, took a short break, and did it again
This makes Meat Boy's Bandage Girl Dark World levels look like Funky Kong mode.
Oh really? Maybe you don't know about dark world xd
@@nicolasmilano7251 I do, dark world bandage girl is what I meant.
@@FirionLeFleur Oh God xd
He didn't even use the honey charm, what a mad lad.
I can imagine myself breaking the controller and then my laptop and then every window in the house and then every human being who even dared to speak to me... I WANT TO SEE THE WORLD BURN...
Why!?
Why would anyone make this torture!?
Why would any one subject themselves to this torture!?
Why am I subjecting myself to this torture!?
It's called the path of pain for a reason
I don't know why, but this is one of my favorite videos to watch if I'm sad, because you can see the gears turning in their head. When they stop on a part for a few seconds, thinking about how to move, planning their course and finding the path to go through and plotting how to do it, then they go for it and it grinds to a halt on a bass boosted saw blade and it's great. Makes me feel like my attempts and eventual completion were worth it, just to see, feel, and understand the pain others experience going through it
I kept accidentally doing skips
2:41 when all you know is pain and buzzsaws
I love the little victory jumps in the areas he hasn’t been
I just recently started playing Hollow Knight and haven't reached the White Palace yet, but just watching this gives me PTSD.
This video so accurately portrays the way the player feels and I love it.
this is what hell is like when you get there but without the infinite soul wells
I don’t know, after getting screwed twice by the Kingsmoulds and having to go through the whole path three times I could probably do it without the soul wells now lol, that was an AWFUL punish to live through
Celeste B-Side
Celeste Farewell
Celeste C-side
Celeste Golden Moonberry
Path of Pain Golden Strawberry
oh man, those b-sides were so fun. i finally burnt out when c-sides were introduced, but man what a great game
I will never be able to go to the dentist the same way again
Oh noe
*path of pain but everytime you get hit you have to do a pushup*
Everyone: *buff*
I remember first doing this cuz I thought I just found a neat little path
That neat little path then sucked out 2-3 hours of my day..........damn spear hallways...
This honestly sounds like glass shattering.
I love it
when you pressed the soul bullet button instead of the dash button ( 6:20 ) i felt that
i cant describe how much i love this video- ive watched it over 35247893 times-
I love the little happy jumps at the end
2:56
*T R I G G E R E D*
When I finally passed the path of pain I remembered that I didn’t killed nightmare king Grimm
have you yet? it's such a disgustingly evil and fun fight
@@Xenmaru00 wait is it needed?
@@finnaginary941 as far as i know, not unless you want the full run of the Pantheon for the final possible ending after doing basically EVERYTHING in the game.
There's a souped up version of every boss in the Pantheon and in order to get the final possible ending you gotta beat them all, and a reprisal of Nightmare King Grimm is one of them.
if you dont care about that though, you're fine not fighting him. i only suggest it cause once you get his patterns down its a tense, difficult, assholic but _thrilling as hell_ fight.
Tia knows i cheered my head off when i won...after i realized i'd won.
@@Xenmaru00 I’m interested to see what ending I’d get if I don’t beat NKG lol, he sounds like hell to fight
@@finnaginary941 he totally is but its the kind of hell that gets your blood pumping especially since you know you dont _need_ to do it for anything other than bonus stuff.
The hero we need but don’t deserve
I love how bass boosted version of the sound of falling into anything that sends you back to the checkpoint sounds literally like a car crash...
Publishers: So how difficult is this part?
Team Cherry: *YES*
I felt so much pain remembering how I failed to get past even the first part...... And I had both grubsong and hiveblood to help me! Just I am in astonishment as how good you are platforming to have gotten through this!
0:32 Bruh you really like to make your life harder
7:57 222 that was my pulse in this moment
This is exactly why whenever there is platforming in this game I equip the charm that allows you to get soul from taking damage…trust me it will save you on these parts
I can't believe you subjected yourself to this pain just for our entertainment. Mad respect
The Pale King spent the kingdom’s budget on buzz saws instead of healthcare
No cost too great…
1:48
Dashmaster: You having a *Bad Time?*
Even though It wasn’t me playing i cheered when you got through it
Perfect representation of my experience
This video was actually what introduced me to Hollow Knight. I finally cleared Path of Pain and this video was all I could think of the whole way through.
