finally saw this soundtrack on here, and on sale got it because 1. hollowknight ost is great (and well they have the wav files in the game but dis-joined, probably so they could sell the ost) 2. hollowknight is awesome 3. they deserve the money 4. silksong wen? 5. hollowknight is awesome
i hate sh!ting on or returning games because i don't like them but...wow. i'm not sure why the reviews are so high. looks good, sure. seems like a nice story at first. but the gameplay? the audio clipping over itself? the seemingly slow on purpose movement? the horribly easy or nonsensical puzzles? the mfplat issues that plague too many games like cancer? (the cute videos dont play, luckily theyre just mp4 so you can pause and then watch them) uninstalled, dont think ill ever come back to it.
Got it to run, had some issues with scaling/mouse movement like other reviews. Admire the concept, art and world - but the gameplay gets aggravating quickly. Stealth is ok, kind of assumed that would get old quick. I hate the handholding most games do these days, but the quests will have you chasing your tail without looking up answers. Not sure if I miss lines of text somewhere? Even if that's the case I feel like the quest log could hint where to go. Reached a part where you're supposed to talk to someone, but they're not there. Search up and down for ever, finally look it up and apparently it's a time of day thing. Must have teleported as soon as I got to where I'm supposed to go since the guard had new dialogue after exiting and doesn't let me back in. Had a guard follow me to a new area and didn't go back to his original one, broke the AI trying to navigate. Don't think I'm going to finish it. Not a game for me.
