Beautiful but flawed

I loved the original Hollow Knight. But I feel Team Cherry either didn't care or didn't learn from some of the issues the first game suffered from. This game looks, plays, and sounds great! But what really killed the experience is what happens after you die to a hard boss. Challenging bosses and enemy rooms are great! But having to spend a lot of your time running back a long ways (sometimes more than one area) just to get creamed again isn't fun and a complete waste of time. Another issue is the fast travel. Why does it always have to take so long just to get somewhere? Why can't we just have something simple and convenient like fast traveling from the benches? It all just seems like pointless time padding in a game thats suppose to be loaded with content and enemies. I'm glad Team Cherry had fun making this and I respect them for selling it for a very reasonable price. But this game just isn't for me.

Hollow Knight: Expert mode

Extremely high quality game with absolutely no learning curve aside from the first area. Every upgrade out of the few you're able to get, gives you an almost meaningless advantage while the difficulty continues to ramp up. Regular enemies dodge and shoot or rush you. Too many enemies, bosses, and traps do double damage. No areas give you a break. There are traps and combinations of enemies that give you little leeway whether you want to run or fight. The map system still sucks; requiring you to buy a map and have the compass equipped at all times. When you find a quiet area, be ready because you're either fighting a miniboss, a boss, or a squad of enemies. You will be forced to waste hours watching video guides, or try to find other people to give advice, but again, most upgrades' advantages are miniscule. The biggest kick in the pants is that the developers clearly read a book on what human beings' fastest reaction time is, and went with exactly that number for every enemy and boss attack in the game so healing is a chore, attacking is a chore, etc. But the worst part honestly is the fandom around this series. Any criticism and you get swarmed. I give this game a 2. It could be a 5 if it treated its players with respect, and not just experts, speedrunners, and people who rest their ego on their skill in, an admittedly very cool, notwithstanding the relentless abusive difficulty, videogame about bugs.

Disappointed

As a fan of HK1, I was really looking forwad for silksong. I'm disappointed so far. It seems the developpers only tried to make this game as frustrating as possible. The game is too punishing for no reason, even in the early game. Movement is clunky. A lot of things do 2 damage, even simple contact damage. Flying enemies are annoying. I wanted to love this game but I'm not sure I want to continue further :/

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.

Too difficult

I really enjoyed playing Hollow Knight several times. I never finished 100% because I have a life but everything that was not optional was great fun. Silksong however is bringing the non-fun parts that were optional in the first one to the front and center. The first time I had this bad feeling in my gut came when I was forced to diagonaly pogo from at least 5 consecutive targets perfectly to reach the next section - The targets have different heights and distances from one another so it isn't even possible to do this in a certain rythm as in other platformers where you can get into a certain flow. I put up with silly pogo platforming because I thought I might get something in the future that makes these passages easy and fun in the later game (and I did - kind of). Still making this mandatory is bad. The second thing that is important for these games is combat...and well... I had fun with many bosses in the early game, Lace especially made a great impression on me. So there is a lot of good here. With the bad stuff I thought it would be like platforming - at some point I will get stronger and the issues I'm having will be forgotten. That is what I thought - in reality I am 15 hours in having explored a lot of the early game very meticulously but I do as much damage as I did at the very beginning and I have almost as little life as in the beginning There are several normal enemies that take about 10 hits to defeat and it is not uncommon to lose 2 life in one hit even from non bosses. This makes me feel my 5-6 hearts are actually 2-3. I finally stopped playing for now after reaching a certain "Sister" and this feels just broken. The boss is summoning two mobs at once that also deal 2 damage which need 3 hits to die. Maybe if they are nice enough to introduce some balancing here for people like me that aren't that hardcore I might pick it up again because it is even more beautiful and cute as the first game. Until then I have better things to do with my time.
