An Unmatched Experience

Having achieved the 'true ending' yesterday, I can safely say this is the greatest gaming experience I've had when combined with the original Hollow Knight. Aside from a couple of criticisms with fodder enemy damage and rosary abundance in early game, Silksong is phenomenal. I don't think I'll have another experience akin to this for at least a decade. The only game to actually make me cry with its ending, excellent story, excellent character/enemy design, beautiful artwork, amazing soundtrack. All bundled up with dynamic and interesting mechanics that are a clear evolution of what was presented in Hollow Knight. 10/10

Provisionally, I like it

It's gonna be short because I'm still playing it. I'm a big fan of the original Hollow Knight and, for the moment, I'm having a lot of fun with Silksong. Art design, character design, platforming and fighting gameplay, music, absolutelly awesome (as it is in HK). Hornet is charming as always, a bit more talkative than our quiet knight, which lets us get to know her a bit better. The only "but", if you will, is the steep difficulty because several monsters hit really hard just in the first few hours while we can't still upgrade pretty much anything and the first platforming sequences start soon. But I'd say I like it this way better than the other way around. Hollow Knight (base content, "bad" anding, no hidden or special bosses) even felt somewhat easy. I like to coinsider Silksong a continuation to HK. For the moment, I think it will prove to be an awesome sequel/spin-off.

Hollow Knight for grown ups

Silksong is Hollow Knight on steroids. Every mob is more advanced, every boss has more attacks. Movement isn't limited to spamming dash. You can't ignore game mechanics, receive damage and then just heal up with the bruteforce soul you have just gained. After 10 hours I can't say a bad word about this game.

Harder, faster, better, stronger

Excellent sequel of an overwhelming game. Do not expect a fairy tale for newcomers. Is challenging and will make you be proud of every little achievment you make. Recommended for the ones who enjoyed the previous one, for the metroidvania lovers and for the ones who look for a challenging experience that requieres hability.

Fun metroidvania!!!

I have a heard a lot about Hollow Knight, but never got the chance to play it, but ordered Silksong out of curiosity. The gameplay is smooth and challenging, tonnes to areas to explore and it keeps you hooked! Highly recommended!
