Hollow Knight

completing hollow knight reveals that the games "difficulty" is the only thing it has. strip that away and you are left with a monotonous 2d wanna be metroidvania, shamelessly copying the Souls formula, that just has good visuals. you see game development is not easy and takes time and skill, to deliver an enjoyable experience. the devs here simply showed me, they are inept of developing a good game. they went the easy road that every run of the mill indie dev goes: "make it hard and say its not for everyone ". miyazakis team ( responsible for the amazing souls/borne series ) are experienced devs with artistic vision and good knowledge of what they want to deliver. never have i felt dark souls 2, bloodborne or dark souls 3 were unfair games. in hollow knight i blame the game and the devs. from taking away quality of life features and forcing you to have buy them in game and use slots for it, to stupid enemy design that throw too many things at you to dodge. most of the time you will be spending tooling around, in the world, searching for the next stage to progress. then the next big time waster is the corpse running back to boss rooms. the actual gameplay here is actually lacking. its literally: - 60% of the time tooling around because you have no idea where you are - 30% corpse running because of bad enemy design and questionable platforming sequences - 10% fighting actual enemies...... do yourself a favour and dont support this kind of devs who have no idea, how to develop a good game.

HK is one of the game that you're "supposed to like". Dude, it's a heckin SOULSLIKE METROIDVANIA with le charming hand drawn animation and heckin cute bugerino aesthetics [soyboy face]! Well apart from the visuals it doesn't really have to offer much else.

I just started and I AM asdfsfsdgfdsag WAUUUUUU o.p

This is the most boring game EVER! The first few hours, you wander around looking for "cool" upgrades like wall jump or double jump. There is nothing else going on. That the grafics are bland doesn't help either. Also, you have to pat for maps, and they are only updated when resting on a bench?! This game is BS! 😒

At least, if you wanted to make a cheap game where the story doesn't matter, the difficulti is bullcrap and frustrating, and navigation is horrible, at least make it look like garbage. It looked cool, it got me with the art-style but I with I nevfer played this. I tryed to like it, as everyone seem to love it and I was feeling like i was mission out, but it's truly an horrible experience. A game worthy of the c**spit that is the human race I guess ... ( i'm salty cuz I can't experience the story outside of a no commentary ... but then why even make a game, if you gate the fun out of most people ... i guess some people should just get good or off themselves ...) At least I just spent 7 euros, but that is the equivalent of a months breakfasts, too bad .... I just wish i didn't suck ... i just wish I wasn't useless ... In games ... just like life ... I'm unworhty of being alive ... I really need a different kind of game. F*** this game ... i could have bought porn.
