Game is great but has some design decisions straight out of 2015, that were also a problem in hollow knight. It's beyond frustrating from the developers they refuse to listen to any feedback and just expect fans to like every decisions, when they've been loud and clearly they don't like
One of the best open world 2D games of all time. Beautiful, outstanding level design, interesting combat, rich lore. This game is extremely hard but rewarding. A modern masterpiece.
Hollow Knight: Silksong is a beautiful Metroidvania, with smooth and satisfying controls. There are many platforming sections and boss fights that are truly peak.
As with Hallow Knight and most Souls games that have minimalist style of storytelling, I don't really get the lore behind everything but understood the gist
While it doesn't capture the heights of Hollow Knights wonder and whimsy, Silksong's combat and exploration far exceed both it's predecessor and other genre goliaths. A high point of praise is Silksong's insistence in punishment, boss runbacks being a prime example of the Team Cherry's integrity in maintaining a precise

I recommend,

Silksong is really weird because you see the perfect gameplay and world building you saw, but the game design philosophy from the devs prevent to fully enjoy it if you're not an excellent gamer. Why trolling so often, why no accessibility options ? We are not in 2015 anymore, why
Hollow Knight: Silksong elevates the brilliance of its predecessor into an even more ambitious masterpiece. As Hornet, players face a steeper challenge with faster-paced combat and more complex mechanics, pushing skill and strategy to new heights. The vibrant, hand-drawn world of Pharloom dazzles with its beauty and secrets, paired with
It takes way too long to get rosaries. When you enter an area to collect one and try to go back, if you don’t make it and don’t have a map, just know you’ll lose everything. So if you don’t want to get frustrated, don’t play
An incredible action and platforming game with just the right amount of difficulty and frustration to properly reward the player for pushing through. Cogwork Dancers is potentially the greatest metroidvania boss of all time.
My only gripe is I wish the rosary economy was handled a little better - there are
