For anyone that's been a fan of the original Hollow Knight, there is going to be no dissapointment in this successor. The game is filled with their beautiful writing, their lovely artistry, and of course the particular bleakness that comes from the worlds that Team Cherry wants us to explore. The biggest kick that people who were likely playing or completing Hollow Knight in anticipation of Silksong will suffer is that Hornet does not move like the Knight does. Her swings are the same, but instead of a down swing, she has a dive as just the base level of her talents. Her upgrades do not function the same, and her world operates in one requiring greater precision. After an hour or so (part of that was story, so it's not part of the delay of figuring it out), I wager the average player will be able to grasp the delays and the windows for Hornet's movement and when you do, OH how the world opens up. All in all, I highly advise this game, with the caveat that it will ask a better dexterity than the Knight did of its players.
