- Today I'm going to get every achievement in Hollow Knight. I've heard Hollow Knight is one of the best games ever made, and I want to see if that's true. This is a series called Beloved OR Busted, where I 100% games that people either loved or hated to see if they really earned their reputation. Hollow Knight's steel soul mode, and Pantheon 5 are the hardest achievements I've ever gone for, let's see what that adventure looks like

About stag nest: hopefully you've already seen it (but it didn't make the cut), but if you get up the elevator - you'll see newly hatched stag egg. And the name of our stag changes from "last stag" to the "old stag".
Even while Hallownest lies in ruins - there is still some hope.
One of my favorite details in the game!
I did fully explore the stag nest and find the egg! You're right about it not making the final cut haha. I didn't put the name of the achievement and the egg fact together, but I found it wholesome regardless
please let that new stag make it's way to silksong somehow
maybe because the other stag is in silksong?
The achievement is also called “hope”
Haha, watching everyone's first playthough is just screaming "POGO" at the screen. Awesome video
Considering I had to do 5-8 hours of training to lose my bad habits, your screen yelling is warranted LOL
Zote is clearly the superior bug. He follows all all 57 precepts!
I missed a class and didn't learn the most important precept. I wouldn't have had such a hard time if I knew it!
He doesn't though. One of the precepts is to "Tell only the truth".
@HumanoidDerpling Yes, but he does follow it. Are you implying Zote the great is a liar?
@@aidencalhoun4893 Yes. Among other things, he says he killed the Vengefly King you literally saved him from. Also, his self-proclaimed title is Zote the Mighty, not Zote the Great.
@@HumanoidDerplingheresy! You dare challenge the powerful grey prince?!
The fact that all the three/four dlc expansions are free is great.
I agree! Imagine if EA published this game 12 years ago, they would be 19.99$ each
@@morgansbasement Oh god don't make me think about that
okay im not even 1/4ths through the video but like i couldn't keep this in anymore, YOU HAVE SO MUCH DAMN DEDICATION TO HAVE EVEN CHOSEN TO TACKLE HOLLOW KNIGHT TO 100%, the hk fandom weclomes u with the biggest arms ever bro, this is such a major achievement.
Thank you, buddy! It was an insane adventure
Watching this has temporarily cured my silksong deprivation 😂
Also you should play path of pain in white palace
I did play the Path of Pain! It didn't make the final cut since things were already pretty long. Grubsong, Hiveblood, and deep focus helped with the rage lol
@@morgansbasementmaaaaaan please release that footage i just want to laugh :c
@@oli4809 I wish I still had it, but Hollow Knight was 2 TB of footage, so I had to delete it. And all the Hollow Knight Livestreams got deleted during a channel issue in November. I've only recently started backing up old footage RIP
@morgansbasement rip I was really hoping to see you do the white palace platforming haha. Honestly though great video, you captured how I feel every time I play this game. Instant subscriber dude
The dedication and perseverance does not go unnoticed!! Absolute BANGER video🔥This looked so painful lmao. Congrats on getting one of the hardest games 100% completed, mad man! Great work🎉
If I hadn't gotten hit so much, It would've been so much easier. I'll take the grindy way instead
you kept saying awaken, you kill the dreamers in game not wake them up, that is why their bodies dissapear
I interpreted it as awakening them because of the title Dreamer, but you're right
They should be still lying there rotting where did they go????????
@@RandomGuyOnCZcams777what happens to the corpses you leave behind in the game?
@@RandomGuyOnCZcams777 I woke them up and they went to work 😂
@@morgansbasementback to my minimum wage 9/5
One of us! One of us!!
Hollow Knight still stands in my top 3 favourites (cant always put them in order 😂). Congrats on the all achievements man! Ahhh I felt the same rush and the feeling of victory again watching you beat P5.. thank you❤❤️
One game I might suggest you look into is Cup Head, no pressure🤘 amazing content as always!😘
I had to become a bug person at some point 😂 I'm glad I could bring up some nostalgia!
I've been meaning to play cup head FOREVER, so it will definitely be done at some point. Great suggestion!
what are your other two
@@morgansbasementyou have now joined our hollow knight cult
What are your other two?
Just knowing the amount of time and sanity loss you spent on this, you absolutely made a banger out of it! Been waiting for this one and you did not disappoint
Thank you, Tobias! I'm glad it lived up to the hype!
The fact that i heard "this took me 200 hours to complete" and my instant reaction was "only?" as to be surprised by the number beeing "low", that speaks on itselfe on how hard the game is, also, imo it IS impressive that it took you that long and not more
All of the people I had talked to before playing said it was like 80 hours to complete, so coming out with 150 in-game hours (50-70 of editing to get to 200+), didn't seem super impressive. You're giving me some premium gas, though!
@@morgansbasement Considering you 112% it like twice + steal soul + freacking pantheon 5, impressive!
Best video I’ve seen so far in 2024!! Thank you for taking me through parts of hollow knight I’ve never seen even after 400+ hours within 3 years
I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
This video was an absolute W Morgan! A lot of these moments had me nervous for you bro. Really enjoyed the structure of the video too. Congrats!
Thanks for checking out the video, Shardyx! I really appreciate it, buddy!
Great video Morgan! Congrats on getting this done...looked brutal
Thanks for checking it out, Rob! I hope it hit the spot!
this was such a well put together video, and it was so entertaining, i am genuinely surprised to see it doesn’t have more likes
I'm still pretty new to things, so I'm hyped up with the current stats! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Incredible dedication! Looked absolutely horrible to grind out but worth it in the end boss! Congrats!
Thank you boss! I'm glad the pain came through haha
Oh Colosseum of fools, my biggest hurdle on my way to completion so far. I spent hours stuck on trial of fools. I feel your pain, but at the same time I'm somewhat glad to see someone else struggle on it aswell lmao.
With that said, time to spend hours upon hours in pantheon, but honestly it feels less frustrating to grind.
Great video bruv! It's always fun to watch someone's first playthrough of HK and compare it to my own experience!
The colosseum of fools was so annoying haha. I watched Mapocolops play it after I had beaten it, and I've genuinely never laughed so hard in my life
Good luck on the pantheons! It's a wild ride, but I know you'll get it
Love your videos! Great mix of narration and gameplay. This is the only account I have notifications on for.
Now this is a GREAT comment!
Loved watching this after finally beating P5 for myself, you really mastered the game and the journey was fun to see
If you've beaten p5 too, then it sounds like WE mastered the game!
As someone who just recently beat Pantheon 5 for the first time, I'm glad another video like this crossed my Suggestions list. Congrats on completing this masterpiece of a game. Now for Silksong!
Man, your experiences in P5 are exactly like mine. Markoth is such a punk. But great job doing all of this!
I'm glad we can bond over this. P5 was a nightmare, and it's mostly Markoth's fault lmao
Absolute banger of a video, wish I could watch this again without knowing what'll happen. SO, I'll try rewatching this in a year or two so I get the same experience again hopefully.
I love to hear it! I'm glad It hit the spot!
A new Morgan video!? 😍 The perfect ending to a Sunday evening. I feel like there should be a visible thing to show your suffering for these achievements. Maybe something like a death counter would be nice. Thought that about the Sekiro video already. Hard to tell how much time you actually pour into these. Don't sell yourself short on that! 😁
I'm glad you're here for this!
I had the death counter in the single achievement videos, but this one was recorded over such a long time that I forgot to keep track half way through 😂. I'll keep that in mind for the next video though!
My guy! Been waiting on this vid! Another banger vid, worth the wait. Editing and script are clean af, definitely noticing an improvement every vid. Keep up the hard work man! 🎉
Thank you, Dj! I appreciate the kind words!
i’m not even an achievement hunter but i’m absolutely loving your videos. watched all your stuff after finding the mein leben vid. you’re making these videos so fun!! please keep going, these are great
Thank you so much! I'm glad you've been enjoying the stuff! The quality is only going to get better, so I'm happy to have you along for the ride!
As someone who has gone through the completion process of Hollow Knight about two or three times. I couldn't help but chuckle and nod in agreement to some things said in this video. There are some extra levels of pain you could do like fighting all the bosses in the Hall of Gods at Radiant difficulty but getting 112% along with all the achievements is a big enough triumph. Good freaking job!
There seems to be universal truths in Hollow Knight. My favorite is the hatred for the primal aspids lol
@@morgansbasement Yep, lol. Literally the bane of everyone's existence.
@@morgansbasement welcome to the club lmao
Looks like a cool game. I miss my days of being a completionist on my 360 profile. The good ol days of being an achievement whooore
I haven't heard that phrase in a long time, but holy crap it rings true 😂
Great vid, your mental fortitude is something else lol. Also such good editing!
Thank you for the kind words!
Love the vid always good to see a new player in hollow knight
You Maniac!!!! How the hell have you pulled this off?!?! Banger video. I watched every minute dude
If it kept you watching the whole time, then that's a major W! I won't be playing another game like this for a long time 😂
@@morgansbasement understandable my friend. That is a big game to tackle you are insane 🫨
@@JagzPlatinums After watching your Division and For Honor video, I think it's a grind you could handle. W's all around!
@@morgansbasement I don’t have the skill bro but I appreciate it lmao
Amazing work, what an achievement.
Thank you, buddy!
that was so hype! good job!
Might have just found one of my new favorite content creators, what a ride this video was. Now to deep dive into the hole Basement's catalogue. Keep it up! It's good stuff. Also do you stream these playthroughs? Would love to watch them live and POG out with you and chat.
Yooo I love to hear it! I'm sure you'll see that some of the older videos were a bit under produced 😂
I was on a live stream hiatus to edit, but we'll be back some time this week for communal POGS
ZOTE FANS RISE UP WE WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS BLASPHEMY 4:45
I'M TEARING DOWN THE PRECEPTS
Nice job! Really good content! Love it!
W Felipe
Top notch game. Liked and subbed right away, big respect to you for pulling this off!
Welcome to the Basement!
Hell yes more hollow knight content, waiting for silksong has been some slow torture but seeing more people play just makes me happy.
Silksong is half life 3 of indie games and you have to live with it I guess
Glad I could help!
Now beat Any Radiance.
I’m pretty sure that’s a no
This is such a banger video. New sub
W vid. It’s insane how long this took but congrats bro. Looking forward to the next game
Thanks for checking it out, buddy! I really appreciate it!
I got to the Watcher Knights and after something like 20-50 attempts I gave up the game. I thought about going back, but listening to your commentary I realise that I simply don't receive any dopamine from beating hard bosses. The moments I enjoy are story beats and art design. The fighting is something I do to get to those. So I don't think I'll go back.
I think that's completely fair TBH. I always heard people talk about how the difficulty of the game was one of the best parts, but after playing through everything I can say that I was close to taking a permanent break haha. After the first 70 hours, I felt content with the game. I took a few weeks off, and when I came back the spark was there. My biggest issue was the time commitment TBH, so I can definitely see why the difficulty wouldn't give you that fulfilment considering how long it is
Just so you know, watcher knights is the hardest required boss. And before you fight it, you can get basically every upgrade available. If you do go back, getting upgraded spells, max nail, and shade cloak will trivialize the fight
@@oXRaptorzXojust shade cloak will make it a few times easier
You forgot path of pain
It didn't make the cut, but I did path of pain and saw the cutscene. It's hard to fit a platforming challenge in a video that's already 50 minutes long haha
Great video man. Really enjoyed this
I'm glad to hear it!
super cool video i really reacted exactly like you at the end of pantheon 5 it was insanely satisfaying
Always wanted to do this
First
Rene beat you out for the first RIP. My money is on you for the one tho!
@@morgansbasementI'm disappointed in myself now
@@MDMcVay11462 I'll give you the notification buff for next time 😂
Man this video was amazing, keep up the Good work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yooo been waiting for this one!
I hope it hit the spot!
Lovely stuff, subscribed.
Can't wait to see you apply this kind of due diligence to Nioh 2 at some point.
I actually have a full blind playthrough of Nioh 2 on another channel haha, but it would be interesting to revisit it and do the 100% to see how the whole package holds up compared to how people remember it, myself included (if you found this channel via the other channel, then welcome!)
Damn this video was awesome. Great work like always
Thank you, Sam! I'm glad you were able to check it out
@@morgansbasement Always
Been waiting on this one since the stream lets gooo
Took some time, but she's finally live!
Very enjoyable video, good presentation. Thank you!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Just subscribed been enjoying the videos dude. I love Hollow Knight played through a bunch of times. Took me a while but I finally got all achievements on my Nintendo switch. beating absolute radiance at the peak of pantheon 5 is one of my fondest gaming memories. and the whole vibe of the game is perfect its a masterpiece.
Yoo I'm glad you're enjoying the content!
Doing this on switch is a larger accomplishment, absolute congratulations on that one. I'm probably gunna pick this game up on my own switch, and then work on it when I go on business trips. Thanks for the idea!
This is such a cool video. My favourite thing about Hollow Knight is how satisfying it is to finally defeat a boss you’ve put what feels like hundreds of attempts into. My first save file took me 70 hours and I only reached about 80% completion during that time (I kept getting lost and dying at the beginning lol) but you feel like you’ve achieved so much by the end. I can only imagine how amazing the feeling is to 112% the game and win all achievements. You’re making me want to try it out just from the look on your face at the end 😭 well done.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! TBH if you've got the hollow knight itch, then I think you need to jump into hollownest and round out your completion!
"Release date of never" hurts my soul every time
Just today I was wondering when you're going to release a new video. Good stuff man. Really enjoyed your Wolfenstein video. Keep up the great work.
Thank you, buddy! This video is deviation from the FPS genre, but I hope it hits the same spot!
Oh yeah, absolutely. I don't care about the genre. Just enough watching you do the achievement hunting.🔥 @@morgansbasement
@@mjghp_artworks1025 Hell yeah, dude! I have a ton coming now that this massive project is out
finished the video, you absolute madman, whenever i think i'm dedicated to the game im humbled by people like you, gat dayum LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOO
Yoo I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Hopefully you can go and destroy your next game after watching this!
Excellent video as always. Like many, I discovered you through Mein Leben and was impressed by the quality of your video and the way you narrate through it. I've now watched every video on your channel. Keep it up, love your work.
I'm really glad you enjoyed it! I'm trying to boost the quality every video, so I'm pumped you enjoyed this one after watching Wolf 2
I just watched that one! Literally just discovered Morgan 2 hours ago lol.
Only 132 hours put in to beating 112% and P5 (excluding the steel soul save) is fucken insane to me
I was at 380 hours before doing decent progress in P5
Excellent work sir
Subbed
Oh damn, I thought I was way behind the average player TBH. The estimates I saw online said 80 hours to get through it. This is one of those games that estimates mean nothing I guess haha
@@morgansbasement I sir, am no average player
I’m ✨trash✨
Man those crystal flying bugs were the most annoying part of the game, I rage quited so many times trying to pass that damn crystal cave, but damn man congrats for not going insane chasing that 100%! Awesome dedication and nice vid!
I'm glad I'm among friends when it comes to crystal bug hatred haha
If there's one thing I don't get tired of since I fell in love with Hollow Knight, it's watching other people going in blind and discovering it too ! Especially if they set themselves the challenge of all achievements - so this video was a pure treat =D
I'm a very casual achievement hunter, and HK is definitely my pride and joy so far. =)
I sincerely wish you the best. The potential is here. The narration, the editing, the information, also the voice. This legitimately feels like a 200k+ channel.
Yes I'm sorta upset there isn't more videos to watch 😅
I'm trying 😭
After finishing absolute radiance, you unlock the true final boss...
Silksong waiting room
I've been stuck on this fight for over 5 years, and I still can't figure out if I have the chance to beat it in my lifetime
Props to you, I didn’t beat pantheon 5 till nearly 3 years after I first played. I mean, I’m sure you can tell by my pop that I love this game, and hats off to you man. (Don’t get me started on the speed run and hunters journal)
You are literally a fan of Hollow Knight, and I love that about you
@@morgansbasement yes. Yes I am.
if you die to a flying enemy, either you have a skill issue, or they're too far to reach
still, good vid
also, there's a secret animation for the godhome ending if you give the guy in junk pit a delicate flower
god damn this is like finding hollow knight for the very first time
absolutely loved the video dude
I appreciate the comment dude!
Next video: i did every boss in radiant mod.
Jokes apart, really great video and i hope you are excited as we are for silksong ! Good job for what you have done :)❤
Ps: not talking about path of pain is wild too 😂
Awesome video! I’m currently working on the fully finishing the game and going for the plat as of now. And I must say, it’s nothing I’ve ever seen before lol. Though I’m still pretty new to trophy hunting.
Good luck on the platinum! This game will look sick on your shelf; if you're new to trophy hunting, it'll look even better
Really appreciate the videos you do! I can live vicariously through them and thats a joy!
I hope you gain more traction soon. Keep going! (Maybe try cuphead at somepoint?)
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! That's the highest praise, so thanks for that!
Cuphead is on my list! I'll get around to it at some point!
Easily best achievement channel. Great job
Yoo I'm glad you enjoy it!
Great job! Also, it’s kinda interesting that you refer to attacks that follow the player as “heat seeking.” I’d imagine the knight being pretty cold because he’s made of void.
That's a funny thing to notice, but you're right 😂 perhaps homing light orbs would have been more on the nose
Ayyy my guy is BACK hope you get another viral video!
You and me both 😂 I'm glad you're still kicking around with the large gap in uploads!
@@morgansbasement I'm a sucker for quality 😀
@@0rland0walkthrough WWWW
Amazing video! What an accomplishment to do this, but just saying there is some optional stuff that is not needed for the 112% completion and achievements stuff like the weathered mask and void idols ( i think that's what they are called). But besides that this game is incredible and it pains me that I never got that void ending.
In terms of seeing how the game stacks up, I wanted to get 100% of the achievements. And with all 63 earned, this game was amazing. Anything past that is gravy
I love hollow Knight but haven't played in a while. I think your video has convinced me to try and go back to get all the achievements. Thanks 👍
I love to hear it! Have a good time hunting!
Damn, sick work my man! (No one mention the Path of Pain)
I did the path of pain 😂 there just wasn't a way to fit it in to this. It was like 2 hours of dying lmao, and breaking that down into 1 minute(ish) of footage just didn't look as good, so I cut it. Great lore tho!
“The most annoying enemy, the primal ass-“
I thought this channel was done. Great work!
Oh buddy, I'm never gone. Just took longer to do this game than expected lmao
when i beat poh i gave up recording cause i lost so much. i finally did it and grabbed my phone and filmed the shakiest recording of the last shots at abs rad. seeing you do it gave me that same feeling. great video on my favorite game of all time.
I love to hear you had a similar feeling! Cheers to us!
Can't wait to watch this!
I hope it lived up the expectations!
Great video. You inspired me to actually 100 percent the game myself
I love to hear it! Good luck!
I got the game recently, and I really appreciate the dedication you have to the game. Just thinking about even ATTEMPTING steel heart makes me shudder and shake.
I hope you get through the game and have an absolute blast!
Wow excellent work man
Thank you, buddy!
God damn man. Great job. You kicked ass!
Thanks, Bliss!
The amount of dedication this guy has is crazy. True god gamer
48 minutes? We eating good today fellas
It was a journey, that's for sure!
Great video!
Thanks, Lemon!
This video gave me the motivation to try to beat pantheon five
I love this game! I got all the achievements too, and boy was I sweating at the end of P5, and I won with one health and a pixel from death. Great job
Great job to you as well!
It took me over 100h to fully complete the game and defeat every boss on Radiant. It was my 3rd game to 100% achivements on Steam.
Huge GZ, man! This game totally deserves to 100% it!
Congrats to us both!
I love your voice for narrating videos and stuff its great. x)
edit: also yay bug game good choice gamer.
The bug game had me fully gripped!
@@morgansbasement it was really fun to watch you play it 🐊
@@jiggles.3397 Thank you for checking it out
Watching you play made me happy because I was not the only one who sucked at these type of

LMFAO The best/worst compliment I've received
A Hollow Knight completion vid? Oh Hell yeah!!!
Long time in the making! Talk about a journey!
@morgansbasement No doubt, I still need to go on the journey. Amazing job man, looking forward to the next vid!
@@TheSaltyOnion I highly recommend the game, but the completion is really tough. I'm sending you boat loads of luck, and I'll see you in the next video!

0:29 YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO DO THAT MAN
With a secuel that has a release date of NEVER... bro you got me with that line, I'm watching the whole video now hahaha
I hope you enjoyed it! And if we're lucky, we'll have a sequel release date after xbox does their show on the 9th!
Oh another Hollow knight platinum guy, I also did, so congratulations!
Congrats to us!
Beating pantheon 5 is the greatest achievment in gaming
No lie, it's easily my proudest achievement
Damn that skip was perfect how could you be so GOOD
"When I eventually 1st tried Hornet..." That got me laughing.
First try every try lol
sisters of battle is my personal favorite boss fight in any video game. just such a well designed fight. I'm gonna go play it right now in fact!
It's definitely one of the most well designed fights in the game
i love how all your videos are like 5k vies, 10k views, 15k, then you do hk and its 10x that amount. just amazing that this game is so beloved. its just a testament to the fact that this game is so beloved
This game definitely has a super dedicated audience
@@morgansbasement i mean, you can see that from the advancement or achievement or whatever percentages. about .5% have achieved the p5 clear. most people would only be able to clear that hellhole in like 200 hrs. maybe 100 if theyre smallant. that means 1:200 players spent 200 hrs just to clear a game. unfortunately, im not one of them. ive spent 200ish hrs, but most of it was just walking around listening to the whole ost.
@@randominternetguy3537 The OST is goated so I get it haha
Y'know, I've beaten the game and gotten all the achivements, so when i saw the title of the video i just kinda expected a bad modern "challenge" video à la mr beast or videos trying to replicate them about a game i love and already know about, but this is way better and I really like this style and throughly enjoyed the video. Good stuff
I never considered someone would interpret the title in that way, so it's really interesting to hear that. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
