Giving up and hoping for patches

I managed to beat the Hollow Knight true ending and really enjoyed my time with that game. Up to about 8 hours into Silksong, I was happy enough; it was noticeably harder but still enjoyable, and the early boss fights felt like dances again. But things turned very quickly, at about 10 hours now and I don't see myself being able to beat this game, so I'm going to cut my losses early. I still have no meaningful upgrades and even normal enemies are best avoided since beating them takes a minute and gives nothing of value. Never mind the bosses, which can kill you in an instant because apparently iframes were nerfed to the ground and you also take two points of damage just by standing a little too close to a staggered enemy. I might be able to get out of Act 1 if I spend all of my free time grinding, but honestly I can only see it getting worse from there. It feels like they were testing a NG+ "enemies do double damage and have double health" mode and left it enabled by default by accident. If you managed to beat the highest challenges in Hollow Knight hitless, this is the game for you, otherwise steer clear. What remains is a deep feeling of sadness because I was really hoping this would be my game of the year.

Unfair and annoying

Silksong is a difficult game. That's not a bad thing. I’ve played Hollow Knight (Team Cherry’s previous game) and completed the White Palace—the final phase of that game. It was tough, but above all, it was fun. Silksong doesn’t have those moments. It’s a difficult game, the enemies move in annoying ways, and some areas are poorly designed. Try getting through Hunter’s March. And then there’s the platforming in this game—the red flowers that don’t work properly. As a player, you can spend ten minutes trying to overcome a single obstacle. Silksong doesn’t respect your time. In summary, after 15 hours of playing, the main emotion I feel is frustration.

Backtracking gallore

The game is filled with terrible design choices, it feels untested and unfair it the worst possbile way. The life system is mathematically off. the game lacks checkpoints instead your going to wander the same long way every time you fail. the currency system also serves no purpose other than waste your time. Overall the devs should have involved player feedback and not go silent for six years.

Get ready for nonstop punishment

There's a big, thick line between "challenging and fun" and "brutality for the sake of it." This game *sprints* across that line while vomiting loudly all over it. Three hours in, I heavily modded the game, and even then, I found it unneccesarily frustrating a lot of the time. I don't mind a challenge, but this was just over the line, all the time, start to finish. I'm in the minority here, but I found this massively less fun than Hollow Knight. If Silksong had come out as a new IP, fine. It's a hard game. Acceptable. But it's a sequel, and it's not for Hollow Knight fans. It's for Godshome fans. Aesthetically, it's beautiful. The music, characters, and locales are amazing. Mechanically, I found it nothing but a chore.

It's here!

Wow. It's here. Holy moly. 7 Years and this game feels like it was tested only by people who play silksong religiously. It is HARD. Ball-bustingly so for newbies and casuals and spoilers- only after act 1 does it truly stop feeling like a Hollow Knight game and start feeling like an actual "Takeshi's Challenge" level of difficulty. Who the heck came up with the benches you can't use more than once? Who was it? This game needs to get toned down before the dark souls folks start sliding in and turning this really cool game's community into an elitist cesspit.
