"Hollow Knight was such a treat — it struck the perfect balance between difficulty and exploration, with amazing world-building. Silksong, unfortunately, made me feel like I was playing an old NES-era game — but not in a good way. It’s irritation beyond frustration. Despite its great character, level, and sound design, you hardly notice any of it because of the endless runs back to bosses or through tough platforming sections. It feels like the game was never tested by anyone other than the dev team and a group of diehard fans
