![[TAS] Hollow Knight: Pantheon of Hollownest Real Time in 14:56](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/p6ScLClJmmw/mqdefault.jpg)
The fact that the only reward for going through all this sufference is a 2 seconds cutscene of Pale King and Hollow Knight staring at each other makes me want to headbutt the wall.
You also get the "Seal of Binding" journal entry. The reward is the challenge itself though
Not much TC could do for a reward tho, this is completely end game at this point so geo would be useless, so would a charm because you have killed basically everything, and you are god incarnate at this stage, so they gave something valuable at this level
It just adds more pain ;)
@@moonlight-qr6px I did this after 40 hours and playtime and only reached 100% after finishing white palace, overall, it's not exactly end game content and there, as a result are more things you can do such as trial of the fool (which actually gives geo) or the pantheons. In fairness, it did take me 30 minutes which is quite a while
yo. that is the key plot point, after that scene we all know why hollow knight failed to seal the radiance because he is in fact not totally hollow,i think that scene is totally worth the pain.
5 hours of intense pain and regret for 2 seconds of lore seems like a great deal
great video btw
the cutscene was incredibly moving and revealed a whole new side to the plot
i realize that this is sarcasm but i first read it as genuine and my brain registered absolutely no problem with the statement. great deal? hell yea!! (ftr, i actually spent closer to 10 hours on it 😭) the hollow knight community is full of masochism anyway lmao
@@angelahuang8011 XD
Took me a day and a half for me the first time
no cost too great
10:12 The "what the fuck?!" followed by the immediate smack made me laugh out loud.
This path took me over 13 hours. The room before the fight alone took over 9 hours. Throughout that entire time, I forgot about Quick Slash and Mark Of Pride. Thankfully, I managed to beat the two Kingsmoulds with two masks to spare (I was beyond nervous). I regret nothing.
Proud of you bud, proud of you
I actually beated path of pain on my first gameplay and actually taked 40 min to finish it
@@furkanduran3787 some people aren’t gamers.
But yeah no I beat it first try in 30 minutes I don’t get how people take 9 hours to beat it
Mark Of Pride isn't that useful in Path Of Pain. Sharp Shadow however...
“I regret nothing”
Yea…. For a lore scene of 2 seconds
No I’m jokin’ mini Pure Vessel is adorable xd
In the charms menu, we see Sprintmaster before Void Heart. This only happens if you had Sprintmaster equipped when you got Void Heart. You have NEVER unequipped Sprintmaster since you got Void Heart, massive respect.
It's a good charm bro what can I say 😌
Huh?
What are you talking about? I got it while overcharmed and unequipped all charms easily 💀
@@Miles.Official When Elin switches their charms, Sprintmaster is shown on the left of Void Heart. That means that they had equipped Sprintmaster during the Birthplace and never took it off. I’m not saying that they’re unable to take off the charm, I’m saying that they never did.
Also wdym “💀”
the character development throughout this video is insane
The pain made me evolve fr (tysm for noticing this! ^^)
Honestly, the trick to beating path of pain is to have fun. It is fun. This whole area was one of the most fun portions of the game.
"It's fun" says the emptied husk, devoid of emotions after being relinquished of it's own mind, having been filled up with the same void as the Hollow Knight, except even the latter fails on being the pure vessel it's been made to, while you, has no more soul whatsoever
@@cuboembaralhado8294what he said
Bro is clinically insane
Been ten months, how’s the padded cell life going for you?
It's fun when you beat the section you've been stuck on and begin to explore the next section. After that, it immediately stops being fun when all you're doing is repeating the same exact actions over and over again, slowly trying to become precise enough to move on
Ever since I started playing this game, I've been feeling like an ancient Chinese cultivator who breaks through and becomes stronger after surpassing these obstacles, like I broke through my limits or something
3:01
This part caught me off guard lmao
Bro same 😂 like shi I was vibing to the OST it's 11:49 pm and damn lmao shi caught me off guard lol
@@silverdemon1530 Man, litteraly the same, it's like 11:57pm rn
literally paused due to nearly dying of laughter
7:58 the innate urge to look for secret walls at the jaws of unbearable pain
10:59 and then suddenly the hollowknight does a 180degree turn and you now have to fight the pure vessel!
I would scream HAHAHAHAHA
All of that took me hours i couldnt even finish the final room because i was getting hit repeatedly for hours on end being so close to beating it ;-;
Same but then I tried using mark of pride and I didn't use I forget the charm name the honey one and I did it now I beat path of pain I think 12 times but I haven't played in a while now
@@ori2447 its called hive blood
First time I did path of pain, I think I had Deep Focus, Grubsong, Quickslash?, Dream Weilder and Dashmaster. Dashmaster made me accidentally down-dash into buzz saws several times. I finally made it to the Kingsmould room and got shredded.
Second time I learnt my lesson, think I went in with Deep Focus (Hiveblood is equally effective if not better), Quickslash?, Grubsong/Dream Wielder and Shaman Stone. Ended up spamming Descending Dark to kill the kingsmoulds and still only made it out on 1 mask
The first time I did PoP the final room was so BS. I kept failing the stupid saw shit near the end and all that for like some lore lmao.
i don't know if it was because i was just skilled or because i played celeste but i didn't really struggle much
45 minutes? That’s incredible, I beat it in about 3 hours
I beat the first room in 3 hours 😅
@@loloclawi beat it in an hour
8.5 hours😥
@@user-lg7go6dz3t bro what the fu-
@@user-lg7go6dz3t oh man 😕
I died to the kingsmold at the end like three times before beating it 😭
i did this whole thing and it took me 5hrs, 24 minutes, and like four periods where i stopped and literally broke down crying, all for the reward of 2 seconds of lore. i was so pissed
What reward do you want at the fkin endgame? Geo? bruh
@@l4kr maybe a good charm or something? it's just a little bit frustrating that such a difficult task yields essentially no reward other than barely relevant lore tidbits lol
@@kyndavibin9065but that percentage tho
@@avoid6485 you don't get percentage fro completing it lol
@@kyndavibin9065 oh i dont mean game completion percentage, its for percentage towards your bragging rights
Hollow knight: Dad stop spending all your money on buzz saws!
3:39 i felt that
Also good job for whoever did the theme for pop, it just fit perfect with the pain we feel
It's the Hollow Knight OST, called Sealed Vessel.
The composer is Christopher Larkin
@@fm_0523 Hollow knight OST*
You have effectively summed up everyone’s feelings while attempting this platforming nightmare. Well done.
Someone had to do it and I'm glad it was me
My dude, 45 minutes?
I got stuck 4 hours on this Path, not even the P4 took me that time!
You've played some other plataform games I guess, like... Super Meat Boy?
But, you're cool dude!
Ty man! I have played other platform games like Celeste and even Cuphead for the fighting part, so I have some experience xD
@@elinlive yeah, i had a feeling you played celeste. Your performance was very impressive for a first time.
4 hours!?, it took me like 8!
I agree this man is insane it took me about 4 hours to beat this as well
Haha noob took me max 3 hours and could have finished it in half the time if i didnt have to stop almost at the end bcs i needed to let my mom watch TV i was playing on lol yet even after thzt i got back to the last part in like 10 minutes really ez
I bet that Team Cherry doing the path of pain would be like:We want to see your suffering then we’re goin’ to do all this for a cutscene of 2 seconds deal?
I beat the path of pain, but why i still feel pain?
3:00 Im Chilean, and i gotta say that i laugh hardly with that "Conchetumare" Ahahahahahahaha
Im Brazillian,and i laugh hardly too!
hahahahahaha
I remember the first time i tried, i knew where to start the path, but not the path itself, i was like "Path of pain? Thats some bullshit" and then realized, that the developer actually mean it, it break my proud, but i gained back by completing, and all that we completed should feel the same
Boy for that focus you got to do this, you should have more than 1000 subscribers. I have just beaten this path and goddamn it took me 2 fucking hours.
~6 hours here, your lucky
Took me 8, just completed it today!
Did u know that at the last section u can just cdash over the first two spikes?
This fact was brought to you bye the it took me 20 hours to beat this sh*t mom help me gang.
I feel bad for u
DUDE! This reminded me of my first time on path of pain! It was a Christmas Eve and I spent the whole night. Later, a friend of mine told me that she was scared since she could hear the noise that of controller and my rage even though we were was two rooms apart. 😅😅 Fun memories...
Those were the days, weren't they? XD
I had been trying to beat that first section for days and I just beat it today. It took me around four hours total to beat just the first section. For reference it took me a little over an hour to beat the entire white palace. After I finally dropped down and beat the first section I stood up and covered my mouth in both surprise and excitement. After countless attempts I thought I would never beat the first section and I was so happy that my mother who was in the room at the time took notice and actually congratulated me when I explained the full situation. I had heard that the first and last sections were the hardest so after finally beating it I have more confidence that I can finish it. That confidence and happiness from beating that first room helped me push forward and beat the next four sections in under an hour. I am currently at the section at 5:49 and having a little trouble but I feel I can actually beat this god damned hell.
Also that freaking cutscene as our reward for beating the freaking hell is the most unfair reward for what had to be done to get it. We at least get a mask shard for the flower quest but for this we get something so trivial.
When I finally beat the POP I am going back through the white palace to the pale king's thrown just so I can piss on his corpse for ever creating that god damned hell.
Edit: I FINALLY beat the POP. At the last part I just spammed vengeful spirit until the two guards died. Now I am off to make good on my promise and piss on the pale king's corpse.
It took you only an hour to beat the white palace? Was that your first playthrough? Because I'm at 5 hours now and I've done slightly more than half (god help me)
@@agatanishcheret7453 Yeah I beat the white palace in a little over an hour on my first play through. After dying the first time I decided that I needed a plan and I went back to change my charm setup. I had every charm and notch in the game at that point so I had options. After doing some math, I realized that doing grub song, grub elegy, and deep focus would give me more soul from taking two hits of damage than it would cost to heal two hits of mask damage. That setup meant that after than first death I could never die as long as I healed and that saved me soooo much time. An alternate setup would be hiveblood but that takes ten seconds to heal the last bit of damage taken so it can get a little slower but it allows you to add mark of pride or longnail.
@@chrisackerman2452 had no idea about grubsong+elegy
If I ever go back to PoP I'm absolutely using that setup because waiting on hiveblood is agony
Thanks for sharing your experience man, sounds like it was rough but fun at the same time, not to brag but I did the whole thing in under 4 hours, and am practicing trying to do it no hit right now which might never happen lol, I just enjoy going through it though and getting better each time
@@agatanishcheret7453 broooooooo, good luck, most people beat the white palace in around an hour or less I believe, but that’s awesome your doing it anyway
Edit: you probably beat by now I just realized that lol, good job
The conche was peak comedy timing
4:40 "FUCK YES KISS MY ASS GAME L RATIO EZ CLAP" JAJAJA what an honest reaction to the pain of this path
I WAS AT MY LIMIT AT THAT POINT 😭had to let my pain out somehow HAHAHA
Mann, I don't play Hollow Knight, but this video really sumed up all the pain and relief that someone can feel while playing it. Great video mann!!!
You're pretty skilled! Also, pretty lucky. You don't know the pain of getting to that last bit just to die to those damn kingsmoulds.
3:38 you can literally hear the "oh fuck" from op by that stagger
if you could pogo on thorns this would be called path
Took me 3 hours to get out of the first room. Total time the game was on for that day was 16 hours, in between which i took 2 naps
8 hours and 2 towels thrown, I didn't touch the game for a day after the blow of humiliation, I'm thankful for that section with the door just needing to be completed once, path of pain is now engraved on my dna, right along NKG's fight pattern. No other game has made me go through the 5 stages of grief as fast and as many times as hollow knight. I can't wait for silksong.
Path of pain, cleared. Pantheon of hallownest, you're next.
3:01 THAT SHIT MADE ME LOSE MY SHIT OMFG-
Context: "Conshetumare" can be translated to "Son of a Bitch", and seeing an Spanish/Chile-vocabulary word on a English video made me laugh
I'm Mexican so I HAD to do it HAHAHA
Bro i loved everysingle minute of this one XD
I died midway through because I accidentally walked off before I regenerated my health, but I realized that Path of Pain was a waste of time, because all you get is a 2 second cutscene, so I didn't bother continuing. The only reason I survived was because of the Hiveblood + Grubsong combination.
I don't blame you for not doing the whole thing XD but hey at least you tried and you know what's at the end!!
Once you learn to stop thinking about the amount of deaths you've had and how close you were that one time it's actually quite easy, on the psyche, the platforming is still demonically hard.
Ggs im your 300th sub, nice channel
It’s depressing… not gonna torture myself going down that path..
People are complaining about no tangible reward for completing this, but like… do you guys really want there to be one? Would you guys rather this be mandatory for full 113% completion or something. It’s better optional, trust me. The cutscene is very important though.
I beated Path of Pain with 1 HIVE SHADE after the mini boss fight. I was shaking so much
(dont tell them sprint master only increases speed on the ground)
you have helped me a lot with this video, thank you very much
It's a pleasure!!!
I have now started calling path of pain path to my eventual suicide
This was funny, made me subscribe
Pain......from the inside to outside and outside to inside
That was insanely amazing dude... like whattttt
totally worth (absolutely not biased towards any vessel lore)
the two seconds of lore are worth it
the kirby scene got me xD
My pulse did a triphammer watching this, I did this in early 2020. I felt like crying and retyring my thumbs. Completed this masterpiece of a game though. GOODNESS!!
Really nice video, you got a new sub 😃👍
absolutely hilarious, Very underrated video.
It took me so much time because i dont play platforms games but liked hollow knight, it was about 3-5 hours
Here’s my story with path of pain: I finally defeated white palace and I already went to birthplace and got voidheart, the thing is, while looking playthroughs to see if the people suffered as much as I did, but instead, I found a video about the secret entrance to path of pain and just in the moment I saw it I went there; already in path of pain I got stuck at the beginning but (after 3 whole days) I was able to move on, the thing is that I got stuck at the very end, right before the battle with the two kingsmolds and I gave up, but the thing is… I forgot that in path of pain there’s no benches annnnnd well no benches equals no checkpoints, but I forgot that and left the game and well… I basically lost my whole progress just because I gave up 😁😁🤣🤣😭😭
Yeah I remember my first time beating that nightmare of a section. I only did it because I thought you got an achievement for doing so. You can imagine my disappointment when I found out it in fact does not give you an achievement.
Watching this video I experienced phisical pain
i'm trying to do it as well rn and i am dying in the exact same ways.
i feel you brother
Lol he Fianlly gets up the big night” wait it’s the end of video what did I miss?”
This video is amazing and sooo damn funny congratulations :D
Tysm!!!
watching this high had me crying
3:00 couldn't explained it better lmao.
This is so relatable, i spent literally 8 hours on this 😂
i discovered the broken wall to the path of pain by accident because i wanted to shoot the armored fly (i wanted to see if it does something) and missed. I realised its path of pain halfway through it and had to finish it the following night cuz i didnt want my progress lost. It was, in fact, a path of pain.
A well deserved victory
Elinnnn!!! What a cool video!! 🙌
TYSM!!!
yea that was pretty much how it went for me. last room was a pain in the ass. I agree that its worth it tho, feels great when you finally beat it.
The parts where he dashed into the thornes? I felt that on a personal level
It hurt so much every single time 😭
One of the most fun challenges of this game (even though I got killed by those two dudes after getting stuck through the last part for days on my first try, eventually completed on my second try)
just listening to the music gives me flashbacks
So I remember first playthrough I wanted to give this place a go learned about auto health combo... then I immediately gave up on it hunting down the kingsoul cause I actually almost fell asleep
Me laughing at this and the caption reminds me a lot when I first try to beat this.
Looking back, can't believe I actually succeed
And this is when I knew I was never going to beat this game
I just finished this hell hole on hard mode... no Longnail, no Quickslash, no Mark of Pride
I cleared everything relatively quickly, except that damned last section
the DEDICATION on this makes you deserve so much more than the 500 subs you have, keep going dude, great video
Who needs that many buzz saws anyway
Я проходил Путь Боли ничего о нем не зная и даже никогда прежде не видя его. Проходил 5 часов со слезами и истериками, и остановился на последнем испытании с Каролингами, потому что уже просто не мог идти дальше.
Когда-нибудь я обязательно дойду до конца.
It only took you 45 minutes? Wow, that is impressive, you are amazing at this game, just, wow
my charms for path of pain were unbreakable strength quick slash grubsong unbreakable heart and lastly sharp shadow it took me under 12 tries in every section of path of pain nice run
Easiest Super Mario Maker parkour:
The name "Path of Pain" couldn't have been better chosen. Team cherry really didn't hesitate to cause muscle and psychological pain in the players.
You know what, White Palace seems like a silly place, im going to embrace the void instead
Listen dude you don't have to put yourself through that pain-
Even just watching this is painful..
I just started playing hollow knight a few months ago and I’m terrified to do path of pain
I beat it in 40 minutes. I also died 2 times. Once at the very starting room because I wasn't paying attention to my health. And the other, the last platforming part just before where you fight the two guys. And it was again because I wasn't paying attention to my health when I literally could've just healed. Also, my jump button was broken as heck and resulted in probably 30% more deaths than necessary.
No one asked
Holy damn. It's impressive that it only took you about 40 min to complete. I had my first try at the computer and way later this year on switch, died once to those soldiers at the end. You fought them pretty well mate!
TYSM!! I'm actually still pretty proud of my performance in this XD
Only late in completing the challenge in 1:30 hrs. It wasn't difficult, but it did distract me a lot and I trusted hahaha
What charms do you guys use for PoP? I've never used dash master or quickslash(though I've always felt like I should.)
I haven't seen the rest of the guys video but in the beginning he's using speedmaster(or whatever it's called?) How is that helpful?
I also noticed he's using Mark of Pride, which is what I did on my first run, and something I now consider a mistake, especially in tight areas. I do use Long Nail, but I feel like I shouldn't even do that, as sometimes I hit the ceiling/thorns above me after bouncing off saws.
I do use Hiveblood and Grubsong(which are practically must haves for me, though there is a ton of soul totems.) Long Nail like I said, unbreakable heart, and...what else...damn. I can't remember. Oh, soul catcher I think.
Path of Potentially Want to Rip my Hair Out for a Two Second Cutscene
Me being a new hollow knight player seeing this. I can’t even do a down slash probably 😨
i remember when i first start doing this i spent 8 hours on this and promise to don't do it ever again
now i am ready to get back to hollow knight only to complete full speedrun on this again (also i finished test of teamwork)
steel path was actually the reason i started to play hollow knight.
You are not beating path of pain... path of pain beating you
This video says to everyone that all people can beat it
It's much more entertaining to watch a HK video made by someone with a normal skill level.
7 hours yall but with a 3 hours break in the middle so total in game time like 4+-
Very good elin
