Phew, I was under the impression that nobody played this indie darling.

Question 8 : What is the region you can explore in Hollow Knight : Silksong?

[Greengoop]

Haven’t played this one yet. The only place in the game I currently know is The Citadel so I’ll guess that.

[Pirez]

Nope

[DaveRattlehead]

Pharloom

[DaveRattlehead]

I know this is a double post, I'll just merge it once Pirez sees the answer has no edits.
Although I know it because it has appeared literally everywhere, it's definitely one of those games I'll play in the future after finishing Hollow Knight. I'm really enjoying the experience at all, it's one of those games that rewards exploration.

[Pirez]

Pharloom is correct.

If Dave answer this question, he'll be spanked hard.
Question 9 : In what videogame related reality TV show did Arin "Egoraptor" Hanson participate in 2012?

[Master]

I honestly haven't got a clue, my brain is dredging up a Game Jam but I doubt that was what it was called.

[Rsandee]

Gamegrumps?

[Pirez]

...

This is the one question I'm going to have to withdraw, aren't I?

[Pirez]

Yep, let's withdraw this question. Let an admin merge the two posts so that everybody is notified of the withdrawal.

The answer was Sony's The Tester. A reality show about testing videogames... that did not feature videogame testing


However, this question was the shield before the inevitable Megaman question. Brace yourselves.

Dave can answer again.
Question 10 : In which games of the Megaman X series can you find multiple ways to get a buster upgrade (Ultimate armor code excluded)?

[Master]

Never played Mega Man, I know there's 8 of the X games, so I'm going to take a random guess and maybe get lucky.

2,3 and 5?

[Pirez]

You hit none of them.

Also a hint : There's 8 games + the baby-first RPG called X Command Mission.

[DaveRattlehead]

Mmm, let's say X1, X4 and X7?
