Good game with a few minor issues
I am really enjoying the game, and I love the difficulty/lack of hand holding. It does suffer from a few technical issues that get you killed more often than they should such as frame stuttering, and occasionally not registering inputs, but the charm of the game is undeniable.

I just can't help but feel like...
Very slow paced game, can't seem to do anything to progress. Without in-game skills, game seems very frustrating to play.

Overhyped and overrated
I'm glad GOG has a star system for reviews rather than the binary system that Steam has. This game is average at best with some shining moments that don't make up for the absolute slog it is in the midgame. Hollow Knight starts out quite charming, it has the bones to be something extraordinary but falls short due to amateur feeling design choices. The combat and controls are top notch but only utilized to their full potential during 2 or 3 of the games multitude of boss style battles and the difficulty is artificially inflated in too many instances to make certain challenges feel rewarding. Music is awesome but becomes tiring because of the limited number of tracks throughout the game. The artstyle is beautiful but that doesn't make up for a lack of interesting platforming and map traversal. The world feels very rigid and lacks any real fluidity to mask the tile-like way it is designed. Most of the best content was added after the initial release. People lauded this game from the beginning but I just don't get it. It is not really like Metroid, Castlevania, or Dark Souls, so don't let the genre associating terms fool you. What can be said is that Hollow Knight is an exceptional value at full or sale price. There is a lot of content to enjoy if this is your cup of tea. I put plenty of hours into the game to complete it, 80 or so, but did that for the sake of doing so more than fully enjoying myself. Like mentioned, I only felt truly satisfied after 2 or 3 or the games boss battles, which is a shame because those battles really excel in the fun department. Now that I'm seeing other reviews they use "flawed," "almost perfect," and other similarly weighted descriptors to describe the game yet still give it 5 stars. I guess the star system is bunk, too. This game is average at best but a great value like mentioned.

Good game, but....
It is a well done platformer and you can see so many original influences in it. But: The map "system" is attrocious. Buy Quill to map where you, except that doesn't work until buy more map pieces from vendor in each area. And then your quill suddenly adds onto that map. Magically not working through the entire area you just went through to get to him. Then the map shows nothing. You have to pins to show energy statues, pins to show fast travel points, pins to show heal/save benches, etc. There is an entire shop thats only purpose is to buy a funcation map. Which still doesn't show things like locked doors so you can know where it was. You have to buy pins for you to place too. The hits / giant splash graphics feel off to me. I can't quite place it, but it is contact damage that I can't get a feel for or simply can't see a d*mn thing from all the impact graphics which leads to misses and further damage on me.
