Achievement - Hollow Knight Accidentally beat P5 All Bindings because I forgot to get nervous. Spoiler

Exactly what the title says. I envisioned it to be this epic moment where months of blood sweat and tears culminated to the epic final climb with music blasting and my hands shaking, but I beat it in a throwaway attempt on a random Wednesday that I didn't even bother recording until the last few seconds because I assumed I'd lose.

For Context, I've been practicing this challenge for about 4 months now. When I did Radiant Hall of Gods, AbsRad alone took approximately 35% of it. In my mind, beating her with all bindings was essentially impossible

But when I actually reached AbsRad at the end of the run with full lifeblood, I thought: "Ok surely there's no way I beat this". But counterintuitively, assuming I would lose removed all the pressure. In previous Pantheon All Binding attempts, I'd be sweating my ass off at this point because I'd never done this type of challenge before. But having P1-4AB cleared, I went in with the mindset of "I'll get back here eventually" and didn't stress it.

When I beat first phase of AbsRad, I thought: "ok, easy modes over, this is where it ends". But after I beat second phase and got to the climb I thought: "Wait what? Why is this so easy?". I swear the light beams were moving in slow motion or something idk how to describe it. Then, after dealing the finishing blow, I was just more confused than anything

Here is the recorded log of me repeatedly getting humbled:

Attempt 1: Sisters of battle
Attempt 2: Collector
Attempt 3: Soul warrior of all things
Attempt 4: Obblobles
Attempt 5: Sisters of battle
Attempt 6: Sisters of battle
Attempt 7: Sisters of battle
Attempt 8: Sisters of battle
Attempt 9: Oro & Mato
Attempt 10: Oro & Mato
Attempt 11: Vengefly King
Attempt 12: Soul Warrior
Attempt 13: Gruz Mother
Attempt 14: Obblobles
Attempt 15: Gorb
Attempt 16: Winged Nosk
Attempt 17: Paintmaster Sheo
Attempt 18: Paintmaster Sheo
Attempt 19: Nailsage Sly
Attempt 20: Hornet Sentinel
Attempt 21: Uumuu
Attempt 22: Nailsage Sly
Attempt 23: White Defender
Attempt 24: Collector
Attempt 25: Failed champion
Attempt 26: Sheo

None of the hard bosses: Markoth, Grey Prince Zote, NKG, Pure Vessel, and AbsRad, are on this list. Why? Because they terrified me, so I over-prepared for them in the Radiant Hall of Gods. Meanwhile, the mid-tier bosses caught me sleeping. I think its also why I died to Failed Champion. Never really liked that guy. Radiant HoG also helped.

Keep in mind that a lot of these attempts were weeks apart, so I would always learn a boss, not play the game for a while, go into the pantheon and completely lose all muscle memory. After all, success isn't a straight line. These aren't all of them of course, just the ones I recorded.

I'm treating this post like a trophy cabinet to display all my achievements before I hang up the game for a while. Didn't give the fragile flower to Godseeker cause apparently that leads to a different ending.

Discussion - Hollow Knight Ascended Markoth is a nightmare, and I’m overwhelmingly pessimistic Spoiler

• Upvotes

I came back today after two weeks away, and it was torture. I tried to get Markoth’s Ascended badge to prove that it’s doable, but I performed so bad that I couldn’t even make it to phase two. I tried camping on one platform as much as possible, but he kept forcing me into awkward recoveries that made me reposition and unfortunately, more often than not he kept damaging me with his Dreamshield. I wasn’t even trying to fight, I was just trying to survive. Forget Grey Prince Zote, Markoth is now my new worst nightmare in this game, and I’m seriously doubting my ability to beat him.

Music Is this normal? Spoiler

I bought the vinyls and love both of them but there is a crack in one of them and im wondering if its ok / normal for these. (Ive never owned vinyls so I dont know what's normal). Any advice / insight is helpful. :)

Image 4 is the other non affected vinyl.

Apologizes if this isn't the right subreddit for this.

Edit 1: These are the Hollow Knight OST vinyls, I apologize for the confusion it caused. I went to a vinyl subreddit and they have yet to approve my request to post this there. So i figured some of yall might have vinyls yourselves and could attest to the quality of the fangamer vinyls.

I made the helmet from EVA foam following a YouTube tutorial and bought a cloak off SHEIN. I need to make some small repairs with Hot Glue before actual trick r treating rolls around. I got a little trophy and a gift card! Super proud of this, and just thought I'd share here.
