Im guesing u have drift on ur movment stick:( i have drift on my dullshock left stick too but its weird it only drifts when i hold L2 Like in shooter games its so annoying im aiming and it moves
It's all relative, I guess. When I first did PoP I thought it was hard. Then, when I came back from doing all the King Trials and Mausoleum levels in Aeterna Noctis, I thought PoP was a joke, lol.
I mean to be fair it does get easy after doing it a lot of times. Its all about muscle memory. First time? No. It is NOT easy. Btw: 10:20 you can go under
I love how the reason you're doing this is peer pressure. In all seriousness, it's the first video that I have time to watch of yours, and it's really good. Keep it up man!
You can see his mastery over movement as he goes further and further, path of pain isn't good because it's hard (it is) but because it teaches you true mastery over hollow knight's movement. Because only through pain can you become stronger (or some other philsophical shit idk)
Hard =/= Bad Bad Design = Bad Difficulty is fair for the challenge it gives. It is reserved for the most dedicated players. Also you are right about PoP being designed for mastery. PoP purely exists for two reasons: 1.) Mastery over movement controls 2.) Symbolism for Lore (The Pale King sealed away the memory that doomed Hallownest that only those who experience pain can understand and witness.)
So once upon a time in the far off distant land of last month I was in the room before the Kingsmouls. And my brother committed a crime. HE. LOGGED. ME. OUT. OF. THE. GAME. I practically cried like how could you Charles-
Laughed my ass off at this video, very funny dude... As someone who completed Path of Pain recently, I feel your "pain" . IT WAS NOT EASY. The last section was hell for me.
* you mention a series of unfortunat events * (god my spelling sucks-) me: hey i know about that book series- also me: oh yeah path of pain.... *shivers* then...PIGSTEP STARTS PLAYING AS A BACKROUND SONG AND IDC BOUT PoP EVER AGAIN-
This video in a nutshell *Intense pain, complete with screaming* Legit tho, props to this guy for not turning his video into every “curse in the English language”
Path of pain is like team cherry saw celeste and said “we’re going to put all of the stress from that entire game and put it in one area. Then give people the stress of dark souls on top of that.”
I really love this. I actually felt as if I was doing the path of pain with you. And screamed when you screamed, felt satisfied when a segment was finished. Haters will say it's fake, but real HK fans know it's real.
The most painful thing out the PoP, is that I can get to the last part but never beat it. I literally spent an entire day trying to beat that last goddamn part.
Quick tip for everyone trying this: don't use Dashmaster! I used it when I played it for the first time and I can't count how many times I died because I dashed downwards
All Hollow Knight Fans who do the Path of Pain gain PTSD after doing it, myself including: Post Tramatic Saw Disorder At least Grimm Troupe helps the pain with a fun boss. I never want hear a buzzsaw again.
lmao, I tried the PoP once... I got struck by the very first saw, raged, launched my Dualshock across the room, ran outside, and screamed. I didn't play for like a year after that.
I can Feel the pain at each death and scream inside a little knowing that this is going to be coming for me. (i have to beat it before my sister for the bragging rights and ive rage quit at the Mantis Lords. THE MANTIS LORDS. im gonna need some help)
The only part I took a long time doing was the part right before the 2 guards battle. It had only taken me 25 minutes up until that point, but that final section took me 40. So IDK if the rest of it is easy but for me it didn't seem to difficult.
Path of pain huh well your lucky that you have to do it once I need to do it 4 times and it was painful it took me 2 months to complete it I don't want to do it again.
The Comment: "Path of Pain is easy"
Me with drifting switch controls: Yeah right.....*Easy*
Im guesing u have drift on ur movment stick:( i have drift on my dullshock left stick too but its weird it only drifts when i hold L2 Like in shooter games its so annoying im aiming and it moves
@@brokenstage17 I have drift on my left joystick, the one I use to move. PLUS: Whenever I use the D-pad the attacks go up and not front hhhhh
I have drift on them both. All I can say. It's really "fun"...
Best part is that I accidentally closed the game on the last part.
Drifting or not still PAIN
Your telling me YOU DON'T KNOW WHY your heart is racing
My little brother wanted me to describe The Path of Pain in one meme, I said "Stop! Stop! He's already dead!" He said it was perfect
If “why are we still here, just to suffer?” Is still or was a meme it is acceptable to use, it fits path of pain perfectly
@@iamacatperson7226 Holy frik that works great-
@@emerald9033 indeed it does!
The two knight at the end literally killed me and I had to do everything again. But I mastered the entire thing by then.
edit: except the last one
It's all relative, I guess. When I first did PoP I thought it was hard. Then, when I came back from doing all the King Trials and Mausoleum levels in Aeterna Noctis, I thought PoP was a joke, lol.
Me be like: i can do that. 2 seconds later: i already regret this
path of pain makes me want to break my controller
I mean to be fair it does get easy after doing it a lot of times. Its all about muscle memory. First time? No. It is NOT easy.
Btw: 10:20 you can go under
What if his game crashed right after that little bossfight...
The path of pain while in pain... that's pretty meta
also, i laughed a lot this video :)
Glad you liked it! ;)
People call it path of “PAIN”
its pretty overestimated
the production quality is really good and looks like someone with a few hundred thousand subs. Nice job dude
That’s what I was thinking! When I look at the subs I was just like W H A T
Agreed
When I first saw the channel I expected it to have more subs but how it doesnt is beyond me
He has 7000 tho
“First try, eaasy”
*Has hiveblood healing*
Excuse me, are you implying that you're trying this WITHOUT Hiveblood?
@@pogfection787 the statues are good enough ok
Yeah it’s better to equip for the two guard at the end
@@pitori. quickslash, strength, sharp shadow, and mark of pride is better for the kingsmoulds.
@@R64GreatDays thanks
You know why there are infinite soul statues in the Path of pain?
*To keep you in the suffering for longer*
No
I first thought this was a question.
I realized it was a decree.
Hiveblood; literally exists just for this
Yes
Hollow Knight statues: are we a joke to you?
Jovi's blessing
@@jonsohan1954 cant heal with that equipped. It would be better to use the other lifeblood charms
@@hdtin167 hiveblood and Jovis blessing make regenable lifeblood masks
Me: *gets kingsoul charm* Wow I'm like a god of parkour
Path of Pain: Allow me to educate you
I love how the reason you're doing this is peer pressure.
In all seriousness, it's the first video that I have time to watch of yours, and it's really good. Keep it up man!
Glad you enjoyed it Team!! 😉👍

I have been stuck on the beginning for the third month.
Bruh its so easy, just look at my channel
12:38 good job that you didnt die, you would have,,, *restarted*
_the gosh dang thing kill me and i wasted 8 hours on pop it was terrible_
same, but then i tried it again a couple months later and beat the pop in under 2 hours, i believe in u
@@tectonical5347 i beat it the next day in 3 hours because i hate it there and wanted it over and done with :D
8:43 That moment when he landed next to the spikes: IQ level 1000
Why is Noone else talking about this?
why is it a spanish instagram ad
I did this too on accident once
Sees video title
"Press x to doubt"
It’s hard! I swear!
path of pain is actually rather easy
its easy, just took me like 25 minutes not too bad.
Took me 30 - 40 minutes, not exactly easy but DEFINITELY not hard.
Slap on hiveblood, sprint/dash master, be patient, then its easy
So once upon a time in the far off distant land of last month I was in the room before the Kingsmouls. And my brother committed a crime. HE. LOGGED. ME. OUT. OF. THE. GAME. I practically cried like how could you Charles-
Truly a tragedy...
*Another tragedy would be his death, correct?*
@@obligatorymemename3946 YES, indeed. *readies the grave*
Grab the double barrel niko
He ended your run...
So you end *H I M*
Is he dead now
Well I guess it's called the path of pain for a reason
This vid in a nutshell: *screaming* *more screaming* *more screaming intensifies* path of pain is hard
And the insistently used phrase " LETSSS GOOOO"
*I have been stuck on this for 20 minutes*
Me: laughs in drift keys and being stuck on the last parkour part for 3 days and giving up
Laughed my ass off at this video, very funny dude... As someone who completed Path of Pain recently, I feel your "pain" . IT WAS NOT EASY.
The last section was hell for me.
It is easy... wait oh yeah I speedrun it
* you mention a series of unfortunat events * (god my spelling sucks-)
me: hey i know about that book series-
also me: oh yeah path of pain.... *shivers*
then...PIGSTEP STARTS PLAYING AS A BACKROUND SONG AND IDC BOUT PoP EVER AGAIN-
Do you know how it feels die right at the freaking End after 4 hours
Good thing tho cuz the i beet it in 5 minutes :D
No I don’t, I knew the things were at the end so I had shaman Stone on already and just annihilated them :/
I knew about the things at the end, YET I STILL DIED
This video in a nutshell *Intense pain, complete with screaming*
Legit tho, props to this guy for not turning his video into every “curse in the English language”
"I'm saw sorry for you"
'WE LIVIN' caught me off guard lmao. You deserve more subs dude! Very clean editing.
I remember when i thought the path of pain was easy without seeing it, and then i did it and i hated everything
How the heck did you beat the part to 9:32 *in less than 2 hours on that area alone w h a t ?*
It's even more easier with Mark of pride, longnail and sharp shadow
Everyone:Mark of Pride charm best charm
path of pain:who what hmm oh you mean hiveblood and grubsong
Me who’s done every single Path of Pain challenge:
. . . Over 400 times.
Where can I learn this power?
Behold the Master of hollow knight
when ever you upload hollow knight, you get 1k views at least apparently
Path of pain is like team cherry saw celeste and said “we’re going to put all of the stress from that entire game and put it in one area. Then give people the stress of dark souls on top of that.”
I really love this. I actually felt as if I was doing the path of pain with you. And screamed when you screamed, felt satisfied when a segment was finished.
Haters will say it's fake, but real HK fans know it's real.
Your screams remind me of Sr Pelo. I don't know why, they just do.
“Path Of Pain is easy.”
Cinnamon: **screams internally**
I would like to say, i made it 90% through the path of pain, my game crashed, and then i had to do it all over again
6:37 As a person who has played Celeste, i agree with this XD
I like how at 12:37 the kingsmould's helmet goes sliding along the ground and tries to overlap another texture.
At first try i beat this in 3 hours, now i can beat it at the 4 minutes
The most painful thing out the PoP, is that I can get to the last part but never beat it.
I literally spent an entire day trying to beat that last goddamn part.
Its the Gray Castle xD
8:48 I FELL IN THAT EXACT SAME SPOT LMAO
"path of pain is easy"
me who is so bad at platformers i can barely beat new super marios 1-1 without dying at least 10 times: NO IT ISNT
Quick tip for everyone trying this: don't use Dashmaster! I used it when I played it for the first time and I can't count how many times I died because I dashed downwards
This video is the definition of "naked and afraid" and it's hilarious
Game: hollow knight
Music: *PIGSTEP*
This video in a nutshell:
*P a i n*
All Hollow Knight Fans who do the Path of Pain gain PTSD after doing it, myself including:
Post
Tramatic
Saw
Disorder
At least Grimm Troupe helps the pain with a fun boss. I never want hear a buzzsaw again.
*Buzzsaw Sounds*
White palace is quite scary, with all the Buzzsaws
I FINALLY FINISHED it today and am left scarred from that sound of grinding metal
You should do some smash spirits or something, it's be really fun to see you fight a raid boss amiibo too. Hollow knight content is pog though
What really hurts is the fact he got hit RIGHT before he was about regenerate a honey mask
MULTIPLE TIMES
9:05 there is a wall you can go though
Imagine that Buzzsaw’s and Thorns and everything does 2 damage.
lmao, I tried the PoP once...
I got struck by the very first saw, raged, launched my Dualshock across the room, ran outside, and screamed.
I didn't play for like a year after that.
It's not easy. But it is easier than Trial of the Fool
I can Feel the pain at each death and scream inside a little knowing that this is going to be coming for me. (i have to beat it before my sister for the bragging rights and ive rage quit at the Mantis Lords. THE MANTIS LORDS. im gonna need some help)
The beginning of Path of Pain was easy, at least for me, it was definitely extremely fun completing it though.
you said you've played Celeste but have you beat chapter 9 if you planning on to then good luck :_D
The only part I took a long time doing was the part right before the 2 guards battle. It had only taken me 25 minutes up until that point, but that final section took me 40. So IDK if the rest of it is easy but for me it didn't seem to difficult.
"path of pain is not easy"
proceeds to do most of the rooms within 5 tries
you radiate quackity energy and now I wanna see him blindly play hollow knight or path of pain
I got to the third soul statue in the path of pain
Then my game hit a lag spike and crashed
I'm serious your reaction was me in my head doing the path of pain (yes I beat it,yes it was a nightmare,no I'm not doing it again)
tbh I had no trouble on path of pain 🤨
..ok maybe I took 3 hours straight with hiveblood
Remember. You never die on the Path of Pain. You only get hit. If you get hit enough, you exit the White Palace.
All of that torture...
Just for a cutscene? Path of pain... just for a cutscene... and an extra journal entry?
Gamers: “yeah I’m like a god at this game”
Team Cherry:”sorry what was that?”
the fact that you kept C dashing on that area caused me so much pain, seriously just normal dash
Path of Pain is easy for the first 2 segments and then turns into literal hell.
i love that when you start raging you sound like mockey from sr pelo
11:43
I FEEL YOU BRO AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
great job I dont think I could pass a single room of that
I completed path of pain twice and both times i was very dead by the end.
I can’t believe how much harder he made it on himself
Its dam hard i dont even want to try it
Why would you wear zelda merch while playing hollow knight lolol.
Me doing celeste spring collab grandmaster stages: Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha yeah its kinda hard
I literally watched this and tried to do path of pain myself and it did not fail its name
I love the sound of buzzsaws in the morning though.
6:14 you can just dash through the blades, no need for crystal dash
“The Path of Pain is easy...
...once you’ve beaten it.”
Gotta love Mor Ardain's banger music
path of pain is kinda ez for me, can beat in like 3 hours
Strange how I laugh like I didn't struggle at all.
Its a little easy I did it without losing all my masks lol
I feel your pain, good sir. Your Path of Pain.
Path of pain huh well your lucky that you have to do it once I need to do it 4 times and it was painful it took me 2 months to complete it I don't want to do it again.
Why would you need to do it 4 times?
Path of pain is indeed easy. I am not joking.
path of pain is easier when you pass it the second time
Why hiveblood there is an infinite souul statue at 90% od cp's
But for a few there aren’t so....
Had charms on and not 5 masks
Doesn't count
Path of Pain IS really fun though
to sum up this video "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
How did he get so many sawblades?
How do you not have thousands of subs?
I think there is a typo in the word easy
This looks easy to do
Can't wait to I have the essence for it
Yeah it is easy, also dont use the charms people say to use keep your combat charms equipped for the guards
