What tier can I pay for to have Kirk bing in when I make mistakes, and need correction, throughout daily life? Seriously though, keep up the great work. Triple Click is something I look forward to every week.

One of the best podcasts I’ve ever listened to! Hard hitting game analysis.
incorrect hollow knight information.

As someone who has beaten pantheon 5, (the hardest challenge in hollow knight) some of the bosses in silksong are significantly harder than the hardest bosses in hollow knight. Now, this might be my absurd number of hours on hollow knight talking, but I feel like bosses like trobbio or karmelita are harder than pure vessel or nightmare king grimm. Though I will say nothing has come close to the difficulty of absolute radiance thus far.
