I cant because I cant buy the game yet.
im not playing as a woman
>>719804171It's years late. Some fans have died waiting for it.
I'm so excited to play silksong, I haven't tried hollow knight but I heard great things about it as well
>>719805893O'rlly? Not surprised but this is the first I have heard that, barring the r34 lesbo shit.
>>719804171game has woke propaganda

Here's several
>>719806959Snails and slugs really are hermaphroditic
>>719806959>Refunded
>>719804171Lack of the knight.
>beat a pretty difficult boss fight>get...a downgrade?The game is definetly war more harder than Hollow Knight. And im not complaining, normies get filtered.
it's almost too similar to the first. I know people just want more Hollow Knight so they'll lap it up like idiots, but it's the same platforming, same eneimes, same map purchasing, same world design, same shopkeepers, same lore. All with a new skin. I hope there's more but it jsut looks like Hollow Knight 1.5. If Tears of the Kingdom got an ounce of shit for being similar to BotW this game should be lambasted.
>>719808691>but it jsut looks like Hollow Knight 1.5that's what it was always meant to be, but they got so much funding they decided to make it its own game
Overhyped 2D platformer.

>>719804171They made the compass an equipped item again.

>>719804171australian made
>>719804171>2D metroidvania inspired by dark soulsIt's ass
>>719804171How much taller is hornet to the bug guy from the first. Does that change the combat at all?
>>719805008Elaborate please
>>719804171How' s the OST?
the NSP isn't out yet
>>719810983Gay bugs.
I played it for about 20 minutes on gamepass and fucking hated it. How do you make a metroidvania with no map? Also my controller disconnected and they didn't think to pause the game when the controller disconnects like every fucking other modern video game so I died and now I have no idea where I was because there's NO FUCKING MAP. Uninstalled.
>>719811023Beat the game, nothing as good as Pure Vessel comes along.
>>719811212You have to EARN the map, retard.
>>719811373Earn my boot up your ass shill.
The good news: its hollow knight againThe bad news: its hollow knight againkind of disappointed they didnt iterate/expand more given the development time but if it works it works
anyone else getting microstutters?
>>719804171Hornet is not currently silking my schlong.
>>719804171sequelbaiting
>>719805008fpbp
>>719804171It killed the game industry. As of today, everyone will expect indie games and AA games to be $20 max. If the game even sniffs GOTY (meaning if it's even in consideration), it will mean people will expect even AAA games to be cheaper than they are to make. We are on the road to $80 for the base game of big named titles because it takes that much to make them now. After this, people always compare their games to Silksong and wonder if it's worth pay $40 or $50+ more than what they paid for that. Silksong literally killed gaming today and nobody is paying attention.
>>719804171it exist.
>>719816148Good. Great. Did they get canceled?
>>719804171I really really want to play this game, today, tomorrow and on the weekends but fuck me my employer has me working overtime due to issues at the office so bye bye personal freedom :(
>>719805691I still suck at it but this is cope. You'll get better.I'm 1/3rd there and it already feels amazing
>>719804171It's just more of the first game
>>719816148Games should cost $5 maxTeam Cherry are a bunch of conartists
>>719804171>Find a flaw.It only just fucking came out, implying their aren't any is the height of stupidityThere will be many flaws, and it will still be a good gameFaggot
>>719805008Hello GCJ, are you having fun cackling like a lunatic at your retarded strawman?Simpletons are easily amused.
>>719805893>>719806854Provide evidence, faggot.
The first one was boringThis is more of the same, so no thanks.
>>719804171Tranny garbage
>>719816148Don't get my hopes up anon
>>719804171Diagonal dashing fucking sucks compared to downtapping, the game's controls are awful
Did they add inertia? If not then that is an immediate fatal flaw that makes the game, to me, unplayable flash game trash
>>719818000More refined combat and options for exploration too. Once you've got some tools, some of your abilities and get your bearings the game feels completely different. I'm pretty sure Lace alone will filter anyone thinking they can get away with the same shit they did in the first game.
>>719816709WAGIE WAGIE GET IN CAGIE
Don't get the hype around this game, is it zoomer's first indie platformer or sth? There have been thousands of these games with nice artstyles but completely generic jump n run gameplay the last 20 years.
>>719811081Motherfucker you're the person saving gay fan art
>End of a long platforming puzzle>Heres some beads fuck offIm reminded why I dropped hollow knight
>>719818461>inertia
>>719818593Its the same reason I dont much like classic megaman.
>>719806959Fucking idiot...
>>719818501it's a falseflag you fucking retard
>>719804171the little bow she does at the start of her running animation irritates me to no end
>>719818731>Running animationYou mean walking, right? The game has a sprint button you get around the 2 hour or so mark.
>>719813637But I wanted hollow knight again
>>719811373Terrible thing for a Metroidvania to do
if you run then press back and jump, you do a backflipif you stop then move forward, or move forward then move back, you do almost the same animation as alucard in SOTNit's so good.
>>719818905Is it that hard to walk around areas that it shoehorns you into since you can't travel anywhere else without powerups? You get the map early.
>>719808691>If Tears of the Kingdom got an ounce of shit for being similar to BotW this game should be lambasted.
How is it harder than HK?I thought the shit bonfire and enemy placements really held me back from liking the game but the bosses were challenging but fair and satisfying to beat. Is Silksong more of the same?
They really just reskinned the entire game but put the downward attack at an angle...
>>719804171Apparently they made it even more padded than the first game, which is pretty terrible
>>719811373map was the worst aspect of hollow knight
Anyone else a little underwhelmed? Maybe it'll get better later
>>719818798yeah, walking, does she not do that retarded bow when you sprint?
>>719818425>no evidence
>>719806959kek, he removed the non-binary comment
>>719819026If we want to play with this logic, why limit the map at all if it doesn't matter?
>>719804171I sucks I can't use B to heal when I use the spear. When I get hit there is cool down time and I can immediately get hit again
New healing sucks.New pogo attack sucks.Tone went from grimdark wannabe Dark Souls to bland reddit chungus.Music is bland.Combat is basically the same.The game still does not respect your time.It is clear that the devs hate the player and want to waste your time as much as possible. Otherwise, compass shit that takes up a fucking charm slot still wouldn't be in the game.MC bitch is cringe and can't shut the fuck up.It's garbage. Refunded.
>>719818905>>719811373Just play the game in a few months or until autists release guide videos
it builds on the first game as movement has more depth and options, which makes combat even more interesting/rewardingit's a good sequel.
>>719819276Or I can play the heap of Metroidvanias that are as good/better that do not make the same stupid choice
>>719804171More hollow knight, a shitty stretched out retard attempt at a metroidvania, a genre which has dozens of excellent examples and handfuls of flawless ones, hollow knight is below mediocre, clearly the designer didn’t play any better examples or they’re worse, people who dislike the genre like the 343 fags with halo. That’s what hollow knight is, it’s the equivalent of 343 making halo.
>>719804171i like the movement a lot. not sold on the levels and the fact that hornet has dialogue.
It's a flashgame for those that didn't grew up with snes / nes games. Low quality product for a low quality era
>>719819106Lots of enemies deal two hit points of damage instead of one now and you can't heal incrementally anymore, it's all or nothing
>>719819392So do that. Why are you emotionally invested in the failure/success of this particular toy?
>>719819532I'm not, just joining in the discussion about it
BUY A FUCKING AD
>>719804171Doesn't have hornet sex cutscene
>>719819532The thread is titled "find a flaw" don't throw a little bitch fit when someone criticizes the game

>>719819392Name 3
>>719819407hello saar
>>719819234You know how ToTK has that first sky island that shoehorns you into a particular path as a sort of tutorial with your tools all given to you by the end? It's like that. You follow a simple path, get the map tools, the map opens up, etc.I'm sad that I have to explain nuance to you.
>>719820010The first game requires you buy it lilbro
I think you can miss bosses if you do different things. I already missed a boss because I decided to try him later. Don`t know if he will spawn at another place but I don`t like missable content.
>>719804171Can i somehow pay additional 20$ to get pogo back?
>>719816148>As of today, everyone will expect indie games and AA games to be $20 maxwe will?
>>719804171QUESTIONDoes it bring anything new to the table? or is it just "Hollow knight 2: now you are a girl"?
>>719820481Not really, no>>719820310Skill issue>>719820056Your point being?This one requires you to buy it just as much as the othet.
>>719804171antiquated gameplay. Good presentation can only carry so far.
I don't know what the fuck is going on in the room where you fight alongside the map bitchShe throws what look like the exact same projectiles as the little ant ninjas
>finally reach Lace>its just hornet moveset from hollow knightso this is just a DLC after all
>>719820490The early game is extremely slow. as soon as you get the sprint its extremely good, your moveset is so much faster, the downwards dive, dash attack and all that shit flow really great with everything, and lace is an extremely good boss just out of how much fun you can have with your attacksAnd then from that moment onwards you will be unlocking move movement, alternate movesets, more tools etc
>>719804171>5+ minute run backs to boss fightsyeah nah, screw this. Refunded.
>>719820490It is indeed HK: Tranny edition
>>719806959>plays metroidvania, whose predecessor had a notoriously slow start, for literally 20 minutes>GAMES AWFUL, REFUNDEDOk
>>719804171hornet dies at the end
>>719804171Does this have the same difficulty curve as HK? I was 21 when HK came out and now I'm almost 30. I don't have time for banging my head against difficulty walls like I used to.
>>719823129Also just realized that I wasn't clear in this post. The difficulty curve in HK is fine because it's not until the end and post game content where it gets fuck you hard. I'm wondering if the game saves all of that stuff for later.

Why are these threads allowed? The games been out for half a day. There's nothing to discuss anymore.
The tired Souls formula with the decaying kingdom, lore and characters is just fucking stale and predictable now.I'm very early in but movement isn't too great yet if it even does improve.

>>719804171buy an ad
Why the fuck are the savespots so far from the bosses? Most metroidvanias let you retry a boss immediately, feels tedious
>>719830636Padding to make it longer disguised as le difficulty
>>7198041714.5 hrs into it, got the wall jump and have been revisiting previous areas for loot.Main gripe I have is the map so far (hopefully this is just an Act 1 thing) has been extremely linear, sure, you get the one or two branching paths here and there but they always lead to a dead end. I loved HKs freedom to go where you want right when you get the wall jump and ground slam. So far just seems like a boss rush with some corridors in between with enemies to kill for sidequests. Hollow Knight had the better first few hours ngl.
>>719831021>wall jumpWhich zone?I honestly can't be bothered and just want it asap.
>>719830783Genuinely don't get how this game is so hyped, but then again I got baited by E33 too. It seems like an average indie game with some neat bosses, but it's not as enjoyable as the best in the genre like Super Metroid or Castlevania SOTN

>>719831240Cheers
>>719804171First hour is a bit slow.Then it's a fucking rollercoaster the moment you get the dash and it becomes the silksong you imagined and it's awesome.
>>719805691 im convinced anyone who says this isnt playing on keyboard. it feels fantastic on kb
>>719820598And it's the same problem both times. It's pointless tedium that the genre already had solved
>>719831676That is too much power.Holy fuck she's so OP.No wonder they made her a game ay. It's Hollow Knight, but so much better and HK is pretty amazing.

where are the nail upgrades? I just did the flying boss in the cave and it took so many hits to kill, and i'm just feeling like everything is getting spongier
I feel kinda lucky to have discovered this. I can picture people going.>Wtf she never comes back to camp
Can you attack diagonally and are the upgrades actually good in this one?
>>719832276I don't mind the sponge because it's a challenge.And you so many movesets just from the mere dash that you never get bored with a fight.Lace was crazy fun.
>>719829840Disappointing, I shan't be buying it.
>>719808691TOTK got shit on for having the same fucking MAP
>>719832371>her singing changes mode to suit the area's tuneThis is crazy shit ay.>>719832423I initially didn't like it, but now it's better than HK for me with all the other moves. It kinda makes sense why it's like that and why enemies don't bounce off you as much as HK because she's so freaking fast that doing that sort of thing would ruin it.I feel like this game is fringing on sonic.
>>719831143Being a contrarian isn't a substitute for a personality.I talk as someone who isn't interested on Hollow Knight at all but have Expedition 33 as my favorite game of 2025.
>>719804171too hard
>>719808691>combat is not even remotely similar>enemies behave totally different>bosses are bordering on Nier Automata but feel like how Nier should have felt with a small main character buzzing around it killing itIt might have the same art style and some mechanics (like the equiv of stags, charms and soul) but that's about it. Even all of those are completely modified and changed.
>>719831143Hollow Knight is way better than SOTN or Super Metroid
>>719832719This shits all over E33 ngl. The combat is super fun. You feel like a mosquito with a sword and somehow it just werks.
>>719832780This might be the metroid killer for me. Even dread wasn't anything like this. It has so much other shit going on.
>>719832852>This shits all over E33 nglThey're completely different games so not really.
>>719830636What?This is way better than HK with save spots.
>>719810659
>>719825253>>719825152>>719826375>I also only played 5 minutesUntil you get dash it's not even silksong.Then it's crazy.
>>719832936Well E33 had okish turn based shit and art design. Silk has possibly the best 2D combat I've seen and so far even better art design somehow.
>>719831021>Main gripe I have is the map so far (hopefully this is just an Act 1 thing) has been extremely linearKinda is, kinda isn't.You have a choice of:>use key>beat obstacle miniboss>go to fire area in bottom rightIt is more linear feeling than HK, but I don't mind too much, because routing to destinations are possible here.

>>719804171i dunno. there's something that's missing. not enough tools i feel like. music is forgettable. the running is a nice addition but to be able to run jump, you have to take that one fucking step before hornet is able to jump and there has been one place where i felt like it wasn't my fault, but the fucking controls. add the fucking gliding ability into the mix and platforming can get messy.

can you equip multiple charms in this like the previous game? similar to the overcharming mechanic
i cant.but he will.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2_NdhPjMps
Does it get better once you get the sprint? Right now it's identical to HK.
>>719804171Well, it's no Hollow Knight.
>>719804171i don't like the diagonal attack. i can use it fine and the enemies are designed around it but i still prefer the downward pogo since it's a great defense for falling down and avoiding damage on spikes or enemies that are right below you. it just felt like it had more utility.also i hate the red thingies, i feel like the hitbox could've been a bit bigger because i whiff them so easily
Should I play this if I only care about the porn?
>>719804171Overhyped mediocrity. If you're not autistic for the dumb story it's an average metroidvania.
>>719835159you should kill yourself Imma be real witchu
>>719835159You will probably get better kicks out of it if you don't have 7 years of expectations from the first game, and it is fairly solid metroidvania so far.
>>719835268the average metroidvania isn't a bloated mess of tedium, it's far worse.
>>719835268The only better metroidvania I can think of is the first game. Which metroidvanias would (you) consider above average?

>they fell for hype-slop
>>719831676>you can change your moveset including pogo.it would've been nice if you could do that at the start instead of halfway through the game
Kinda regret getting this desu. It's just the same thing as the first Hollow Knight but greener.
>>719835627jumping/bouncing puzzles based off of diagonal downward dash are fucking cancer
>First big area is a bunch of dogshit platforming with hurt floors with the worst downslash pogo ability possibleWhat the fuck were they thinking?

There are so many enemies and encounters in this game that are just flat out annoying as opposed to being fun in their difficulty. Turned the game off after I lost 300 beads cause I sat in the trap bench that killed my HP
>>719820310Shoulda played Castlevania retard
>>719806959>plays on a shitty laptop >has shitty performance Many such cases
>>719806959I'm literally playing it on a GTX 960 2gb at 60fpsHe either has a 10 year old GPU or is mentally ill
>>719804171I played for like 2 and a half hours and already punched through 4 areas? Was Hollowknight paced this quickly?
>>719838965>4 areasAnon, there is at least 20+ areas just by the achievements
>>719839416I know there's going to be more, but the ones I've been in just went by so fucking quickly25 different levels doesn't mean much when there's 15 minutes of content in eachI'm sure that changes going forward, but man it feels fucking weird right now
>>719836121The currency system is one of the poorest design decisions I've seen in quite some time. I would start there.
>>719831143>>719832780I would say Super Metroid and Hollow Knight are equally as good, but SOTN is not in the same tier as those games, Aria is a little better but still
>>719839960currency sucks ass jesus you need to pay for everything and you EARN Nothing
WHERE IS THE NAIL UPGRADE AT JESUS
>>719804171Is pogo patched yet?Or is there a mod?
>>719839960>>719840194I don't get it, I always had money for everything, are you dying twice in a row and losing rosaries?
>>719804171shouldve been 80 dollars
>>719840541it will be when some guy releases pogo mod for 60$
>>719840194I'm about to drop the game at the desert area, we'll see how I feel tomorrow. They expect me to go farm the one guy that drops red just so I can get a fucking save point and fast travel at the end of this massive area. >>719840513No. I would suspect you are dying a bunch and it's all adding up. There is no currency in this game and I can barely scrape together maps.
So is Hornet a dyke or did I fall for shitposting? Everything I see online states it's all head canon.
>>719804171So from my testing VSync still has no triple buffering/fast sync and the in-game frame cap adds screen tearing for some reason. I feel massive input lag trying to chain short hops, you can test this by comparing how close you can stay near the groundI guess I shouldn't have expected much from Team Cherry seeing how all the menus are the exact same. Zero tech knowledge.
>>719841282She always has been.
>>719841282>raised by 3 women>the only man in her life is her step-brother she didnt even know she hasanon.... how is she NOT a dyke
>>719841282It's been hours and I still haven't heard any story lore information. It's been nothing but people complaining about what filtered them all.
>>719806959I have a 7 year old laptop that's falling appart with a 1050ti in it and it runs the game perfectly. What museum piece is this dude playing on?Anyways, It's not true that it requires you to have played the previous game, but I kinda wish sequels like that were more common. Nowadays every sequel of a successful game is a more watered down version so that all the normies that heard about the previous game but didn't play it can jump in.
>>719836112It's the pleb filter
>>719806959>performance issuesHis laptop has to be ancient. Theres no other way.
WHY THE FUCK ARE THERE BELLS EVERYWEHERTE IN THE SOMETHE MOUNTTHE MUSICTHE BENCHESTHE BACKGROUNDTHE BOSSES7/10 GAME TOO MANY BELLSFUCK THIS BELLGAME
DO I NEED TO PLAY FIRST GAME BEFORE THIS ONE
>>719816148god I fucking wishevery game ever getting "but Silksong though" attached to it forever after would be funny as shit
team cherry can go eat a bag of dicks
Is it just HK but a new area? Or does it feel significantly different? I liked HK but enough to 100% it and I didn't really care about the DLC.
>>719846625It’s a bit different but also a bit the same.
It's a boring game made for trannies?
>>719816148wrongyou're just a tranny
>>719820490It is much harder, at least. The game expects you to basically understand the movement systems completely by the second boss.
>>719804171My only complaint is that when you acquire a new brand, it automatically equips it, meaning all your other bullshit gets unequipped. Even worse, it acts as a checkpoint, but there's no bench nearby to save so if you do want to use the Church of the Reaper entrance as a checkpoint to fight the boss, you have to do it without any of your items.Though admittedly, the runback to the boss for Greymoor isn't too bad, but I'd much rather be able to just drop down from the church rather than hovering through a field of faggots just to fight the boss again. Also, Garmond and Zaza are the fucking GOAT.
Also, is it just me or is there a huge fucking difficulty spike between this faggot and the rest of the bosses prior to that point?
>>719825914I didn't really get that one. Why not just give us the kit? Also some of the navigation puzzles give rewards that feel kinda fucky. Like doing the tricky pumpkin hops to the end of that side area, and the reward is just currency where you have to get back now to actually use it. I'm not ashamed to admit I lose all my money on that one. I am shit at platformers and that asked more than I could give, doing it both ways.
>>719830636If you feel like you're going too far, chances are you missed one of the save areas at some point.
>>719841282Hornet is for Bell Beast Cock ONLY.
>>719839960Yeah, unless you farm, shit is expensive, and if you suck (like I do) its easy to just tank your bank account so you have to do it all over again. Very much a lose-more situation.
I just got the crest that does the downward slash. Does it actually make those segments easier? Will my thumb get a break?
>>719847516>Does it actually make those segments easier?It makes using enemies as platforms harder, surprisingly enough.
Wow, it's dull and meandering just like the first game, who would've thought. When will people realize density is more important in level/world design and not size.
>>719831143Hot Take: People who claim Super Metroid and Castlevania SotN are the best of metroidvanias are as boring and basic as people who claim Iron Maiden's Number of the Beast and Metallica's Master of Puppets are the best of metal.
>>719847142>Also some of the navigation puzzles give rewards that feel kinda fucky. Like doing the tricky pumpkin hops to the end of that side area, and the reward is just currency where you have to get back now to actually use it.Pause the game and hit save and exit and it teleports you to a bench keeping the shit you got sinceis it supposed to work that way? no idea lol
why do no enemies drop fucking money? Everything is just this shit for the stupid throwables that caps out at 400. Im poor as fuck.
>>719804171Movement is disgustingly slow and boring and there are too many ability area gates at the end of long roads. Runbacks are boring. No, giving you shit hours in does not change this. Metroidvanias are about movement and exploration. Even ignoring the boring combat, the pacing is just too fucking slow.
>>719848035Size is fine if you have the movement to account for it. In silksong, you do not.
>>719848035>densityPlay Space Invaders if you want density. Not a game where some of the most fun is wandering around the pretty levels or listening to the NPCs babble sing. If you're that obsessed with never having downtime, just play Osu! or something.
>>719836121Nerfing the early bosses damage to a single mask instead of 2.Increased Rosary gain slightly or nerf the costs of early game items.Improved hitbox of those little pogo plants.
>>719848443You get a super fast dash in 10 minutes and theres fast travel stations every zone
>>719848357That's because this game is a 2D souls like and not Metroidvania.
>>719836154pranked lol
>>719804171why doesn't this garbage have shading?the art sucks.
>>719848551>You get a super fast dash in 10 minutesI went through a couple of areas and then hunter's march and didn't get any fast dash.>>719848608>That's because this game is a 2D souls likeAnd that's why it's boring.
>>719836121there is literally ZERO chance they keep the widow fight the way it is now. its an early/midgame boss with the first meaningful character upgrades locked behind it and it feels like the end boss of a DLC>inb4 filteredI beat it but I also cleared all the pantheons in HK1 and it still took over a dozen tries. The boss will absolutely wall a substantial percentage of the playerbase from even seeing 75% of the game
I don't like contact damage. It's fine for normal mobs, but it's bad for bosses. I did not enjoy the boss of Greymoor because of contact damage.
>>719848939Ori had this same problem.it's an outdated mechanic. real combat and hitboxes need to be the standard.
>>719848939This is something I don't really like either. Misspacing a boss that you're getting your hits in and losing two hit points for it feels shitty. Its not like you ate a hit, you just got too close while attacking.
>>719804171>tag: India
>>719848939Contact damage is one of those old mechanics that a lot of great games had, but it was never good. Like random encounters. Having just played Shinobi which had no contact damage, it felt like extra shit here.
>>719848817>WidowHow fucking long is this game? I just got to BELL-urat Tower Settlement or whatever it's called.
>>719849108can't be arsed to boot the game up again, does hornet also move forward slightly when attacking on the ground? the lowest levels of Hell are reserved for devs who do that shit and ALSO include contact damage.
>>719804171Female protagonist.
>>719848338Only pilgrims drop praynal beads, so your best bet is to farm an area with a ton of hostile pilgrims. Monsters drop shards which are used for projectile ammo.
>>719833638Blame reddit and their silkpostings.
>>719804171Hunter's March
>>719849276I don't think she moves forward, sometimes she'll move backward if she hits something coming towards her, though.
>>719847092Nope, same here
>>719806018thoughts on stellar blade?
>>719849238widow is the boss of that area but you have to clear another area before you reach heras far as how long it is by the time you reach the citadel you have seen 14 or the 28 maps in the game which is the start of act 2. I do not know beyond that and im not looking to seek out spoilers
>redditors already start complaining about two masks damageit's just elden ring again....old babs think they are hot shit because they beat the previous games and get humbled
They succesfully made it more annoying to play than the first game.
>>719806018Go play Astlibra, anon.
>>719849331That is an awful system. I dont use projectile/equiptment that often so it invalidates 90% of the enemies lol
>>719849427Nice. Can't help but feel I'm woefully underprepared since I only have two mask fragments. Maybe if I collected two more I wouldn't be eating shit from the enemies in the area?
>>719804171The area design feels uninspired so far. In HK there was strong visual design changes and color schemes to every area. Deep Docks stands out but I don't really enjoy steampunk in my bug game desu. Everything else is kinda forgettable.
>>719848771It's literally in deep docks. Ya missed it.
Where's the map for the Far Lands?
>>719849872Far Fields, fuckI wish finding maps were easier

>>719850482is that currency even used for anything other than tools and town repair donations? im 8 hours in and ive had perpetually a max stack of whatever that currency is called. it literally seems to be a nonissue
>>719850189I don't mind the momentum when turning, but I hate jumping mid-run and Hornet suddenly feeling like she weighs as much as an elephant
>>719850482That's what it means to be inspired by Dark Souls.
>>719850482>Deals one swing worth of damageIt's pretty fucking good on a fast ranged attack in a game where just brushing an enemy can knock off 1/3 of your health
>>719850594Honestly I just hate arbitrary resource management
>>719804171Too much zoom-in on the camera. I wish I could see more doesn't matter if Hornet is smaller
>>719850482but it does good damage?
>>719850905Not in a game where every enemy is a fucking damage sponge and you get such a paltry amount of them
>>719804171does she even go SHAW in this game?
When BioShock 2 came out, this board was fuming because it was just >More of the sameAnd that's how I feel about silksong so far. Sure there's small changes like you take more damage or you have to pogo at an angle, but they feel pretty microscopic in the grand scheme of things. Much like how BioShock 2 had new plasmids and guns and yet it was still fundamentally the same as the first game. What the fuck did they do for 7 years?
>dash being a unlockable only real flaw
>>719849585>Ya missed it.No, I just explored the harder looking area first as soon as I could reach it because I thought it would be more fun and have more fun rewards.

But the worst was when they had Gamergate consultant Brianna Wu
This game feels way less readable than the original, I don't know why. In those gauntlet fights with the map lady, I can't tell where fucking anything is on the screen. I routinely jump into an enemy because I thought my character was somewhere else, or get hit by an enemy projectile that looks exactly the same as the map lady's attacks. It's really weird. Something about the colours is just wrong.
>>719804171They removed the knockback and now enemies can actually get to me

>>719848817Man I can get through the first phase untouched but then the second phase just spits so much fucking bullshit at you that it broke my will for the nightWorst of all my cocoon is stuck there so I'm basically committed unless I want to lose a bunch of rosary beadsThe game is fun but I feel like the difficulty is heavily ramped upIt feels like I'm half way through the game and yet I'm still made of paper and hit like a wet noodleAlso I really really wish they had just given you a straight down pogoLike I get why they didn't but it would've been so much fucking cooler
one thing i both like and hate about the original game is that the charms allow builds for specific playstyles (spellcasting, nail arts, reliable focus healing, and so on) but you never get enough charm notches to get creative enough to make something truly brokenyeah the game limits you to only do one thing at a time, but you can never really do enough with that thing to the point it becomes something that feels especially strong (e.g. you can't equip soul eater + quick focus + quick slash + mark of pride without getting overcharmed)i know it keeps things challenging as part of the balance, but it would still be a nice reward to be strongdo we know how well silksong does its customization or is it still too early?
>>719850482They had to make it that way since they decided to go with 2 different enemy drop currencies this time, and since half the enemies don't drop the main currency (rosaries), there would be little incentive to even fight the rest of them if you didn't have some kind of expendable resource to grind for (which still happens since there is a hard cap on that resource).It's definitely a questionable design decision, limited use tools between rest points in any video game is always an anti-fun mechanic, especially when it feels like an afterthought. It's not the tools are some room clearing super bombs or anything.
>>719851828desu it feels more restrictive but I'm not that far inthat said, there are more customization vectors - you have more knobs to tweak, but you tweak them less, if that makes sense
Anyone find the third key in the prison.Legitimately fucking filtered here and cant find it
>>719804171She killed ALL of these
Found 3 crests and they all seem underwhelming, and the attacks are shit. Still using the original one.Wanderer seems good but the contact damage in this game is just too much to use it with my limited skill.

>>719852126I haven't gotten the wayfarer charm yetOnce widow gets done raping me in the ass I'll go buy a key and pick it up and try it outThe reaper crest is too slow
>>719848817I had more trouble with that big moth (Beast something) optional boss than with Widow.First phase is stupidly easy and second is basically just be patient and throw your attack items at her when you can. Boomerang is pretty damn strong.

>>719852208If you have the wall climb wayfarers to the left of the first town right where you climb out of the cave after the first moss queen boss.
>>719851702if it makes you feel better you actually start getting nail upgrades directly after that boss and the game for me has felt a lot easier after her(him?) although the fights ive done since are not major bossesyou just gotta get through it and the game opens up a lot more. you are also nowhere near halfway through the game at that point, closer to ~1/4th

>>719805691>>719858338see >>719856027
The game's really punishing if you ever need to heal. The silk attack does like 3 hits of damage, so 6 hits for your whole bar. That's a LOT of damage you miss out on by healing. I feel like it's a bad design choice. Not because you should be getting hit, but because healing is like the first mechanic they show you in the game and it's stupid if it's that much weaker.

reddit boycott coming soontick tock silknigger
>>719804171I'm not really a fan of how healing works this go around.it felt restrictive in Hollow Knight in a way that encouraged you to just not get hit more than trying to find an opportunity to heal all the time. This time, the heal takes up your entire mana bar, it gives three hearts, and you can only do it on full charge until you get enough upgrades.In Hollow Knight, it was slower, and only healed one heart, but also only took a third of your default max. It was useful mostly out of combat as a way to keep going while still letting you cast the occasional spell without too much worry that you'll need it later.If you use one weapon art, you need to get another five hits on an enemy to be allowed to heal, and that just makes me not want to use those special attacks.It's a weird set of mixed signals. It's easier to do, and heals more, so you'd think it's supposed to actually be used regularly in combat now, but then it drains all your mana, meaning that you should just stick to sword hits if you really want to have a chance at using the heal when you need it.

>>719804171This is going to sound silly but it's the $20 mark, objectively speaking. This game is more valuable than the price they're charging, everybody knows it. They're sitting on a $45 game and only asking for a twenty. This is messing with other indie developers something fierce, and it's undercutting even AAA games being a AA title with A pricing. It's messed up that a trio 3 devs can be millionaires and under price their product and make millions more like this, again it sounds silly but this is basically economic terrorism.
