Reddit person Karmyuh has produced one of many first main works of Silksongology: A direct measurement comparability of Pharloom and Hallownest, bearing in mind that Silksong’s world has been scaled as much as account for the taller Hornet.
“By overlaying screenshots of Hornet throughout each video games, I discovered that Hornet really takes up the precise quantity of area throughout the display,” Karmyuh wrote. “So the heights of corridors could be in contrast one to at least one.”
Pharloom vs Hallownest: Correctly scaled from r/Silksong
In each video games, Hornet takes up 225 pixels on display—absent clarification from Karmyuh, I am assuming that is at 1080p. “I attempted discovering the smallest hall that’s represented with the ‘skinny hall’ graphic on the map, as a result of they’re represented by the identical top on each maps,” Karmyuh wrote.

To that finish, they used a hall on the best way to Nox within the Deepnest space of Hallownest, and a part of the trail to Pinmaster within the Blasted Steps of Pharloom. The Blasted Steps hall had a 12.5% taller pixel depend than the Deepnest one in-game, so Karmyuh scaled Pharloom’s map up based mostly on that distinction.
I’ve included Karmyuh’s side-by-side comparability of the 2 within the gallery beneath after a bit of spoiler safety picture, in case you do not need to see the general form of the map but. From every little thing I’ve heard, Pharloom is already a much bigger map than Hallownest to discover gameplay-wise, however Karmyuh’s calculations make it go searching twice as massive when it comes to pure quantity. Getting the map barely spoiled has additionally proven me simply how little of the sport I’ve even seen but.
This is not the primary time we have seen measurement comparisons between disparate video games based mostly on frequent components. FromSoftware dataminer Zullie the Witch has discovered that Armored Core 6 and Elden Ring had been made to the identical scale, regardless of vastly completely different ranges of element. Along with imagining Radahn getting demolished by an AC, I’ve liked seeing how Armored Core 6’s greatest bosses and background fashions dwarf Elden Ring’s complete map.
