Hollow Knight on crack
This game takes everything that made the original great, and dials it up to 11. You should play that first, if you haven't already. The world is not only bigger, it's also more diverse and more dense. There is no dead air here (and where there is, it's deadly). There is so much more variety in what both you and the enemies can do, and it's presented with artful elegance. Yes it's harder than the original, but only in a steep learning curve. You can make things easier by looking for upgrades, which isn't a chore because the world beckons for you to explore it. Every area is unique in its own way. If you're familiar with the original, you remember Deepnest. Well, this game has about 3 different variations of it, which are more challenging but also less sloggy. Remember Path of Pain? Well, there's a couple of equivalents here too, though interspersed in different areas. Every "too hard" criticism fails to account for the stuff taken for granted. Yes the bosses are harder, but you can zip at them at breakneck pace. Yes, many mobs do double damage, but you heal 3x as much, faster, and mid-air. Yes, the angled pogo takes getting used to, but... this is a new game? And you get the trusty old downward pogo pretty early on as well. And the story is just... absolute cinema. It's not as opaque as Hollow Knight; you can piece it together pretty easily without binge-watching mossbag videos. I am a fanboy. My expectations were high. I didn't think I'd enjoy the colourfulness shown in the trailers, I much prefer the muted earth tones of the original, but the awesomeness of every area made me forget all that and love the world far more than I did Hallownest. 75 hours in and I've done the first 2 endings. Still playing, and it looks like there's a long way to 100%. Game of the decade for me. You will love it.
