    The "Nail" is a sword not a lance, in spite of the surface level design and name.
    The name is actually a literary reference, in old english texts, swords were also called "Nails".
    In addition you can't slash with a lance, beat maybe, but not slash, also the nail is described as having a bladed edge, and upgrading it once, its name is called the "Sharpend Nail" and talking to sly after upgrading it, he comments on it being "honed" meaning sharpend.
    And lastly, almost all armed characters in the game are carrying nails, the nail masters, Sly, Quirrel, and so on, but, theres one enemy that has a lance as a weapon, "The Lanced sentry" so, lances and nails are separate weapons

    A strong first impression, to be sure. Since enemy designs are on the table, I feel like suggesting some of the more horror-themed enemies, such as the Mistakes and Follies found in the Soul Sanctum. Those misshapen abominations could look really unsettling as humans. The Broken Vessel would also work for this, given the GAPING HOLE on the back of their head where the Infection enters to reanimate it. Would be interesting to see that massive blob get this treatment. Food for morbidly curious thought, I suppose.

  • @somerandoinaknightsarmor9938

    I love that for the armored characters you take inspiration from real armors, like the ghosts greaves l, sabatons and helmet. Althoug at the 3:00 minute mark, the left helmet is not a historical helmet, but its fine to draw referance from. I also saw that you took the segmented style of the bugs and turned it into leather armor. Maybe for a heavier character *cough* thehollowknight *cough* you could take a look at some polish hussar armor, or italian laminated armors. I also feel that maximillian/gothic style armors would slot nicely into hollowknight. Great video, and fantastic art!

  • @datwitchyswordfan
    @datwitchyswordfan Před 20 hodinami

    Remember: The Knight can’t be the Pale King reincarnated, because the Knight is made of Void, a substance that eats away soul and uses it to create a form of Void. All of the vessels lack soul of their own due to the Void, so if the Pale King tried to turn himself into a vessel he would fail as he is a Higher Being made up of soul, and as such he would essentially be committing spiritual suicide or worse, turning himself into a massive Void monstrosity that wants to eat all living things. Even if the Knight was the Pale King, everything that the Pale King was in spirit would be gone thanks to the Void.
