Good, with Caveats
I'm partway through Act 2, so this isn't comprehensive, but I've played enough that I can give legitimate criticisms to the game. Silksong isn't perfect, but it legitimately could be with some slight tweaks. I've seen many bring up that damage does not seem balanced, especially for early game, which I agree with. My personal criticisms fall into three main groups: 1) Basic Mobs: There are plenty of attacks that feel like they should not do a full mask to two masks of damage, doubly so when the "upgraded" versions of those enemies are doing the same amount of damage but have an expanded health pool. 2) Rewards: Rewards for exploration are also quite bad, with many puzzles and hidden pathways rewarding you with only currency. This is especially demoralizing when so many other Metroidvanias really dialed the rewards for exploration in. 3) Boss Run Backs and RNG: Boss run backs starting at the end of Act 1 seem to get worse, with multiple rooms having to be cleared to even start a mandatory boss and certain bosses feeling more like you need to rely on RNG than your own skill. I've also seen some disparaging the movement and combat system and that just feels wrong. The 45 degree angle of attack has been done before in other games and it's by no means "terrible." Within the first hour it felt natural, but maybe that's because I've already played Specter of Torment. I think the game works for me, but it does not feel like it's for a general audience and that's fine. Here's to hoping Team Cherry listens to feedback and adds some QoL features.
