Sorry man, but stuff like this is on our [banned meme list](https://www.reddit.com/r/HollowKnightMemes/comments/tlwo59/updated_list_of_banned_memes/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)
Though you've probably already learned all you wanted to
welcome to absent father: the game
you are a bug, everyone you know is a bug. but you're special, someone fed you to an edgy teenager's wardrobe's color palette as a child. you live in a village called dirt, one of the youngest people you know is named elderbug. and everyone is being haunted by the ghost of a lamp that used to be god. your father is a fork who turned off the lamp and forked a tree, then he forked a spider, then he forked off to another universe to go fork himself. then the thing he fed his 8 billion children to asked him about his car's extended warranty. fork man thought it was the IRS so he jumped out the nearest window claiming to be searching for a bathroom. he forgot he was on the 19th floor of his castle (forgot to mention, he's compensating for something).
the lamp is mad so it's giving people orange juice because it knows king fork brushed his teeth this morning and void from kirby is still trying to help people with their extended warranty but keeps getting hung up on for unknown reasons.
there's a tall lady in a mask who gets off to watching you have your ass handed to you by regular bugs that are apparently gods to them. and you stop the lamp's orange juice charity because everyone knows apple juice is better and you can't allow this blasphemy (also the company that makes orange juice hired you to keep the profits up). then you turn into the thing that killed you, somehow, and eat the lightbulb because glass tasty.
also fork boy and the tree are really into bondage, buzzsaws, and poor garden choices and the tree enjoyed watching the spider and the fork (this very important lore that I forgot was provided courtesy of `u/Artemis_Fowl_Second`)
You come back to where you were born, you fight your ~~step~~ half sister, you kill three sleeping people, then you kill your sibling. You can also choose to fight your ~~step~~ half sister a second time and become king, go back to where all of your siblings died and make them not hate you, find and attack your dead father's body, get a dream sword and kill the goddess trapped in your sibling, become a fool, give a dead person a flower, give other people flowers, kill a guy and take his child, kill the guy and don't take his child, and/or kill everyone you killed before, one after the other.
This game is a famous metroidvania where you play as a small bug who kills other bugs. We are in the process of sacrificing well known YouTubers for the sequel, which doesn’t have a release date
There's literally too much to be said. Look at [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XDiWYFGGqY) and at [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLFhKaqnWwk) to understand mostl of it all. Warning: the first one is quite long (a bit more than an hour), and for someone whodoes know hollow knight so it'll be quite difficult for tou to understand some parts. if you have any questions just ask me or anyone else. Also the second video is mandatory and quite easy to understand.
Hello Ashen one. I am a Bot. I tend to the flame, and tend to thee. Do you wish to hear a tale?

A man throws eggs down a hole so his kids can all fail to climb out then one makes it so he trains it to drink all the orange juice but since it isn’t a psychopath it fails but another one actualy got out and goes on a quest to drink the orange juice
hollow knight is game about bugs where there are also higher tier bugs who are called as "gods" and one of these gods was left by her people for another god, thus this god comes back for revenge and plagues the entire bug country, so the god of that country tries to make vessels that can keep the plague but fails, thus out tiny character, the superior vessel has to do a come back and just play around and do what it wants to stop the plague
hollow knight is a metroidvania game (simply think of the first 2d mario games but open world)
>!You and everyone you know is a bug. At a ypund age your father murdered billions of your siblings so you left his kingdom because that's not cool. Either the mass sibling murder or something that happened while you were outside of the kingdom turned you into a psycho and now you return to your father's kingdom. You murder ordinary citizens, knights, royal advisors, and just about everyone else you see. On this great bloody path that you are walking you will likely learn how to use soul to do things like cast spells, heal, and invade other's privacy by reading their mind or by entering their dreams to murder them again (not this does not actively consume soul but I assume it is related) by doing this you harvest their mind juices (essence) which you use to inhance the nail you use to murder everyone. After you finish with murdering everyone you may choose to desecrate the planned (by your father) grave of your brother, the hollowknight, by doing this you discover that actually he isn't death and he's kinda pissed about the whole being trapped forever "for the sake of the kingdom" and decides to murder you because you didn't have to do that. (just for a bit of context your brother was chosen as the most emotionless of your siblings and therefore the most fit to leave the dead body pit and defend the kingdom, however something caused him to develop emotions and fail at his only job, not having emotions) when your brother is close to death your sister, who you have by this point attempted to murder twice, holds him down so you can enter his mind and murder God if you so choose. Once you finish murdering God it is shown that your sister is the only member of the psychopathic sibling trio (you(the ghost), her(hornet), and your brother (the hollowknight)) that survived (if I remember correctly which I probably don't. It has been shown in trailers and rumored for many years that she will some day continue the legacy of your slaughter in the game's dlc "silksong"!<
There's a breakable wall in the mushroom area. Behind it is a statue of a lobster (apparently they're basically bugs). This gives you a charm (an equippable upgrade) that lets you perform a "pincer" attack.
The pink gems are the poop of the blue gem monster. They're made of hell mud.
The bank is really useful. A much needed mechanic that serves you well into late-game. The NPC who runs it is fun too.
Elderbug's bossfight is lit. So is the one against the giant robot.
Don't trust the sleeping poo poo man after he wakes up. He is trying to trick you.
So basically there's this really old lamp that used to lure moths used until a new LED appeared, but it got pissed because of that and began emanating cancer to everyone so the LED decided to stop it by putting it in a really hollow box, but the box had a hole so everyone got cancer anyways, so now you - a smaller box come to contain the lamp and you have a choice: go according to plan and contain the lamp, slap yourself into the lamp destroying it, but yourself aswell or become an ultimate box and contain entire world.
Moth comes. They praise the moth. Worm comes. Worm turns into a fork. They forget the moth. Moth wants to take revenge. Fork fucks a tree. Gets a bajillion children. Also develops an obsession to sawblades. Fork kills all of his children except one because they all have feelings. Fork puts the moth inside his child. Fork makes 3 bugs (a spider, a jellyfish and a one eyed bug) sleep to keep the moth sealed inside his child. The spider gets horny before sleeping so fork also fucks the spider. Turns out that one child also does have feelings. Moth starts to leak out of the child. Moth starts to mind control bugs. Fork escapes to shadow realm. Everyone turns into zombies. Kingdom gets ruined. Fork dies inside the shadow realm. You come to kingdom. You kill all the zombies. Turns out the spider had a daughter. You fight her. You beat her and you kill the sleeping bugs. The door to the forks child opens. You kill it. Then you can go back and make your mind reading sword stronger, go to the shadow realm, meet the tree and learn that you are the son of the fork and the tree, get 2 pieces of a charm and fuse it, go in your own mind, the charm you got goes to the true shadow realm and comes back after turning into black, then your siblings start to not hate you because you arent racist anymore. You can become a fool, find a weird bug that considers several small bugs fused together to become bigger god, then fight all the bosses in the game but a bajillion times harder to lose your sanity, you can find a father, take his child, feed it and make it stronger then kill the father and feed it to his child, you can fight your half step sister again and become the king, then you can use your stronger mind reading sword to go inside your sealed sibling, fight the moth there. After that you die, your half step sister lives and makes her own game. Thats about it. Also there is an optional parkour named path of pain. It deserves the name.
Hollow knight
Hollow knight is about a world of insects that have been infected by a god who seeks revenge. Your goal is to access that god and either kill or seal it. You will have to travel hallownest, a massive underground “land” ruled by powerful gods and higher being. After the death of one of them, the kingdom falls to ruin. This game and lore is about the mindset “no cost too great”. You have to use everything in your power to save this place, no matter the cost. You will achieve that by traveling far and wide, gaining more and more powers to help with your task. A lot of ennemies will get in your path and it’ll be your job and yours alone to slaughter your path through to access your final goal of saving hallownest
Really loved this game, I think you should give it a try :D
Bug sex, looooooots of bug sex between a fork and a tree and I mean a loooooooooooot of bug sex enough bug sex to fill a hole with corpses of babies, also spider sex.
what about you play the game and not spoil yourself it for no actual reason? instead of watching some post about it and say “hey guys please spoil me so i can get some karma”
A man tries to fuck his way into getting out of a plague and has one of his kids eat the god that caused it and then traps said kid in an egg protected by 3 comatose people only to have the infection spread anyway. You play as one of his offspring that escaped and came back.
Your an emotionless bug guy who’s on a journey of please help I’m lost only to discover all your siblings want you dead and your tig biddy moth gf is breaking up with you so you commit first degree manslaughter
You are someone's half...umm....brother-sister thing? My brain is drawing a blank on the specific word for someone or something that is a boy and a girl
Pale king (guy that looks like a fork) lovss buzzsaws, and so does his daughter, who has the most r34 out of all the character in the game, and is getting her own sequal game, which was anounced like 4 years ago and people have gone insane waiting for it to release
cute little bug made of eternal darkness go fight older sibling, then go fight moth if u want more, then go fight better moth if u want even more, also ur parents r a fork and a tree

>where the thing he fed his 8 billion children to asked him about his car's extended warranty *Wheeze
Wheezed so loud hahaha
You forgot to mention the sawblades. Come on dude.
Shawblades if you will
Can't forget the buff eurasian guards.
No costs too great
Except his cars extended warranty
I have 106% on this game and I have no idea what’s going on in this comment.
don't worry I don't either
Check mossbag on YouTube for the complete lore.
YOU MADE ME SPIT MY WATER LMAO
I read this in Windette voice. Did not regret this decision.
Really? I read it in Max0rs voice, didn't regret it either.
Seems like a good explanation, I’ll take it
The entire population of the game is haunted by a moth that doesn't even exist in the real world
You come back to where you were born, you fight your ~~step~~ half sister, you kill three sleeping people, then you kill your sibling.

half-sister, not step-sister
Thank you
LMAOO
The what now
Half sister seems to not be step
It's easy, you go to YouTube, search Mossbag, watch the first video and done, you now know all about Hollow Knight
How dare you capitalize his name.
mOSSBAG
Don't say the lord's name in vain!
For he was sacrificed for a greater good
Died for your sins
mossbAg
Also when you do dedicate him a prayer, as he was sacrificed for a greater good. I won't give more explanations
Also be sure not to watch game theories video about hollow knight
Sorry, we already sacrificed him
his wisdom is still on the internet, its not like his channel was deleted
That's what we missed! We need to sacrifice his content, to receive content. The law of equivalent exchange
Yes, that’s a great idea, what if we false copyright strike all his videos so they get taken down, I saw a tutorial on that
mossbag\*
it's a game with lots of bugs, 10/10
At least 4 whole bug! Wow!
This game is a famous metroidvania where you play as a small bug who kills other bugs. We are in the process of sacrificing well known YouTubers for the sequel, which doesn’t have a release date
We at least have confirmation it should come out within 12 months
We are sacrificing popular YouTubers so that the sequel will come out faster
How exactly are you doing that? Asking for, uhm, ^hides ^a ^ritual ^knife ^behind ^the ^back a scientific research.
When the meme dies we just kinda assume the deed is already done.
I have heard about killing fireb0rn
There's literally too much to be said. Look at [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XDiWYFGGqY) and at [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLFhKaqnWwk) to understand mostl of it all. Warning: the first one is quite long (a bit more than an hour), and for someone whodoes know hollow knight so it'll be quite difficult for tou to understand some parts. if you have any questions just ask me or anyone else. Also the second video is mandatory and quite easy to understand.
I recommend the second video too
I second that recommendation
I second this second recommendation
the second link... I hate you
Is it a rickroll? Not gonna fall for that, if so
it is indeed =/
You are not The Hollow Knight You are The Hollow Knight
How is this true lol
But it's not true, you're not hollow
To be fair hollow knight wasn't hollow either
True, but he was thought to be at first and so he was given that title, but nobody could ever attribute that title to the knight
answer is depends on when you ask this question
Technically the truth
Nearly everyone you will care about dies or has been dead including you
That's literally Dark Souls too tho. Actually I think in Dark Souls happy endings are less common.

There is no good ending in any of the souls games
>!The first pyromancer of three tho!<
>!I dunno man, eternity with the Firekeeper in DS3 sounds pretty nice to me!<
Hollow Knight is a game about trying to kill a disease by committing fratricide.
Or by killing god
So there are literal mountains of dead children.
O-kay moving on then
A man throws eggs down a hole so his kids can all fail to climb out then one makes it so he trains it to drink all the orange juice but since it isn’t a psychopath it fails but another one actualy got out and goes on a quest to drink the orange juice
O r a n g e j u i c e
Sunlight=bad
"the sun is a deadly lazer"
I like ur avatar
King come. King die
Buy the fucking game then
Understand I can’t buy the game then
Just play it ong
i got recommended this sunreddit so i actually started playing hollow knight honestly i dont get what's going on but hornet is a girlboss
It's a Metroidvania inspired by Iranian religions, specifically Manichaeism
hollow knight is game about bugs where there are also higher tier bugs who are called as "gods" and one of these gods was left by her people for another god, thus this god comes back for revenge and plagues the entire bug country, so the god of that country tries to make vessels that can keep the plague but fails, thus out tiny character, the superior vessel has to do a come back and just play around and do what it wants to stop the plague hollow knight is a metroidvania game (simply think of the first 2d mario games but open world)

I'm sorry.

Who's your favorite character? Too bad, they're probably already dead or have a really sad backstory with no conclusion that's satisfying
Hornet is void hornet is void hornet is void
Void = screen transitions
Lies and slander
Hot bug sell map That's all you need to know you can thank me later
So basically there's this really old lamp that used to lure moths used until a new LED appeared, but it got pissed because of that and began emanating cancer to everyone so the LED decided to stop it by putting it in a really hollow box, but the box had a hole so everyone got cancer anyways, so now you - a smaller box come to contain the lamp and you have a choice: go according to plan and contain the lamp, slap yourself into the lamp destroying it, but yourself aswell or become an ultimate box and contain entire world.

Bug sex, looooooots of bug sex between a fork and a tree and I mean a loooooooooooot of bug sex enough bug sex to fill a hole with corpses of babies, also spider sex.
Play it it’s amazing
Thank you for being the only person who said “play it” without using an insult
what about you play the game and not spoil yourself it for no actual reason? instead of watching some post about it and say “hey guys please spoil me so i can get some karma”
… I literally can’t get the game and not trying to get karma, where else should I ask, r/askreddit where not everyone knows hollow knight?
on google? on a walkthrough?
Hm, good idea, but not the first thing that came to my mind
The main character isn't hollow knight
Play the game mr ‘Zote the mighty’
A man tries to fuck his way into getting out of a plague and has one of his kids eat the god that caused it and then traps said kid in an egg protected by 3 comatose people only to have the infection spread anyway. You play as one of his offspring that escaped and came back.
Zote betrays you at the end of the game
Sword and magic Zombie apocalypse world but everyone is a bug
you will be fighting a MØTH
You're not the only one.
HEY! PUT ME DOWN!
Doma Doma, FA FUNDA Basically all you need to know
Hornet once considered being void It didn't go well, and she decided against it.
It's pretty much a bugs life!
It's a very buggy game.
Dont go on the internet. There some cursed things there
Your an emotionless bug guy who’s on a journey of please help I’m lost only to discover all your siblings want you dead and your tig biddy moth gf is breaking up with you so you commit first degree manslaughter
You are someone's half...umm....brother-sister thing? My brain is drawing a blank on the specific word for someone or something that is a boy and a girl
Basically silk song 1
Bugs have hardcore sex and their kids are emo
Flukemarm is a Milf
In the beginning there was the deepness, and this made the Pale King very angry so he started creating buzzsaws.
The game is full of bugs, like nearly every enemy you fight has at least one bug in them. Also its lore is mostly either pale or void.
Hornet is the only void character in the game
Doctor House but with bugs, religion and medieval
You can enter inside a fat sewer bitches mind and break it
Quirrel Dies
Pale king (guy that looks like a fork) lovss buzzsaws, and so does his daughter, who has the most r34 out of all the character in the game, and is getting her own sequal game, which was anounced like 4 years ago and people have gone insane waiting for it to release
Jesus dies in the end
Wyrms pull bugs into their thrall, Till ages pass and kingdoms fall, Caps and shells may fall to dust, But Mr. Mushroom readjusts...
So there's this void bug called Hornet.....
cute little bug made of eternal darkness go fight older sibling, then go fight moth if u want more, then go fight better moth if u want even more, also ur parents r a fork and a tree
