Something that nobody understands, the devs are trolling us, and we cant do anything about it

Get the Hollow Knight lore mug.
The sequel (or probably prequel) of Hollow Knight, a 2017 Metroidvania styled game developed by Team Cherry.

Has a quicker pace than Hollow Knight and is played as one of the early bosses of Hollow Knight, Hornet. Also, it is one of only 2 games made by Team Cherry. Maybe has deep lore?
Mossbag: You should try Hollow Knight: Silksong.
Other Hooman: OK then I will try it.

Get the Hollow Knight: Silksong mug.
An unfortunate possible side effect of getting too addicted to the beautiful metroidvania game Hollow Knight. Not everyone gets it, some popular speed runners appear to escape most, if not all of its effects. Symptoms include replaying the game out of boredom, doing god home stuff out of boredom, skipping school assignments to radiant all bosses, skipping school assignments to do specific challenges, actually following all the rules on the Hollow Knight discord, getting used to seeing Hollow Knight porn, starting to enjoy Hollow Knight porn, wack off to Hollow Knight porn, thinking about Hollow Knight whenever you hear the words "hollow", "radiant", "radiance", "nightmares", "pale", "void", "saw", "buzz saw", "bug", "insect", "soul", "knight", "infection", "nail", etc.

1) The Game: Hollow Knight is a game developed by Team Cherry. the game currently has 2 DLCs and 1 upcoming DLC. It's a 2-d metroidvania game that has some platforming here and there but mainly focuses on combat. And in my opinion it's one of the greatest games of ALL TIME. Great music, great art, great story, great characters and great everything. You can check for more about the game at it's wikipedia page and fandom wikia.

2) The Character: The Hollow Knight is also a character and a final boss in the game. For the first time, you can think The Hollow Knight is actually the player character but the player character is named The Knight. It's a vessel, created by The Pale King to seal away the Radiance. The True final boss of the game that you can fight on one of 3 endings. And also, it doesn't have a gender because it's a vessel. Like mentioned above.
"...Father?..." -Hollow Knight's Dream Nail dialogue, during it's boss fight, implying that it thinks the player character is its father.
