After a long period of training and attempts, I finally cleared Pantheon 3 with All Bindings in Hollow Knight. I got so nervous after defeating Grey Prince Zote for the first time in P3AB but somehow I still pulled through.
P1AB and P2AB are nothing compared to P3AB.

All official achievements unlocked in Hollow Knight for Steam! 🏆 It is not often that I "Platinum" a game. Thankful that the speedrun achievements (completed today) were lenient.
Steel Heart is the least common achievement, to nobody's surprise.

Steel Soul cleared in Hollow Knight! Thankful to have done it on the first attempt. Never had to suffer savefile deletion! Didn't have to defeat Radiance to get the achievement but I wanted the good ending so I went that route anyway.

It is done. After nearly one thousand tries I finally defeated Absolute Radiance on "Radiant", aka beating the boss without taking a single hit. Got super lucky but I also got gud.

Got really close to the top of the climb in the 3rd phase of Absolute Radiance on Radiant. New personal record. Getting to 3rd phase is still supremely rare for me but any progress is appreciated.

After hundreds of attempts I finally got to phase 3 of Absolute Radiance on Radiant. Immediately got smoked which is unsurprising.
Even though this battle is bullshit I find myself addicted to it. I do get better but I can't escape the RNG.

Boss rushes #1 and #2 (aka Pantheons) cleared with All Bindings. It tests the patience how drawn out the battles get with a weak nail but at least I'm furthering my mastery of the boss battles.

Only one boss left to defeat while taking no damage. This is gonna be rough. Feels great to have come this far though.

There are many events in day-to-day life where I feel unnecessarily heightened anxiety. One such event is the visit to the pharmacy. Ergo, my brain decided to entertain that anxiety and create the following, twisted dream.

No other part of DCFF7 ever included a snowy landscape so its exclusion from the single player is a bit of a shame.
A box texture on Snowy Mountain reads:
"DANGER
Wepons of Mass
Destruction"

Snowy Mountain has two opposing forts separated by a tall hill. Climbing over the tallest peak must have been dangerous during team matches.
Here are screenshots from the south side, with- and without mist.

"Snowy Mountain" remained exclusive to the online multiplayer of DCFF7. Thankfully, the map exists on disc for the NA- and PAL versions.
The north side, at the gorge, exhibits very light snowfall.

The escape from the relentless undead lives on in Extra Mission #17, "Messenger from Hell", that you can play as Vincent Valentine.
The mission description reads "The dead have returned from hell and won’t stop until they take you back with them."

The Deepground NPC "Iruka" is an unhinged person who uses Mako Powder to reanimate dead soldiers. He refers to these zombies as "servants". The player would escape from these undead obstacles in the mission "Miraculous Servant".

The DG Elite emerge from these four upper gates. Each gate has the kanji 溌 [lively/vigorous/sprightly/animated/vivid] written on it. The soldiers prove their vitality by being impervious to all forms of knockback, which is normally an important strategy against the DG Elite. #deepground #dcff7

In the depths of Mako Reactor 0 is one of the game's most dangerous rooms. The DG Elite are relentless! Movement on the pipes and central platform is precarious.
But the walls read 安全第一 [SAFETY FIRST] so everything is fine, actually.

Occupying a precious accessory slot for rotating 180 degrees is a difficult sell. Other means of adjusting the camera speed and Vincent's direction easily makes the Quickturn more of a fun curiosity rather than an actually useful item. Its exclusion from the single player makes sense.

The Quickturn accessory allows the player to rotate 180 degrees by pressing L3 while aiming. This accessory was available in the online multiplayer. An unused version of it exists in the "Single Player" item pool as well.

In the original JP version this particular wall in Ch10 will instantly teleport you to the adjoining passage.
On emulator a rounding error changes the glitch so you can't enter the passage at all! This blocks your path to the end.

Vincent's ID as a member of the Turks was "GAI012", as revealed in DCFF7's tutorial mode and in the multiplayer. This ID system surfaced again in FFVII Rebirth when we learned that Cissnei is "GAI153".
