Keep Discussion On Topic
Please keep content directly related to the game and gaming. Art, images, and similar content should have a strong relevance to the game and depict characters. Topics such as politics are heavily discouraged.
Posts comparing HK characters, places, or things to real-life should have a detailed explanation of what makes them relevant to Hollow Knight or Silksong. Otherwise, posts will be considered off-topic and are subject to removal. Please message the moderators if you have questions.

Avoid Low Effort Content & Bandwagon Posts
Please keep content unique and help drive engaging and thoughtful discussion.
Unique Tier Lists are allowed. Debate and discussion should go into the comments instead of creating a separate Tier List on the same subject as one that was recently posted.
Please avoid screenshots of texts, copying of recent tier-lists, "wrong answers only" posts, "I've never played this game, AMA" posts, and other bandwagon content.
