The default difficulty that is the only one is way too hard. I expected a similar difficulty to Hollow Knight but Silksong is a lot harder. Very disappointing. Selectable levels of difficulty are a basic accessibility feature that no game should miss. If a game like Sifu can have difficulty settings, so can Silksong.

Awful controls. They really destroy this game. Tried gamepad and keyboard, it's sluggish either way. Looting and interacting with the environment is unwieldy and cumbersome. I tried for over a minute to ignite a brazier once, while a companion was dancing around me, getting in the way. For looting I usually have to reposition at several times until I have the position where I can actually perform the action. While riding, every small rock seems to stop the horse. No idea how this made it past QA.
