Greensad Hollow Knight: Silksong Review

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 feeling and tone that lasts throughout the game. Players must realize that friction is not bad even if we can't understand it's purpose or if it doesn't feel good in the moment.
