what went wrong?
>>719858919Artificial hype juice is running out
>>719858919Go woke go broke
>>719858919It's kind of mid (4 hours in)
op just revealed he is brown
>>719858919>look up negative reviews>silksong not real xD>game is hard> I'm too retarded to understand the mechanic therefore game badNot surprised.
>>719858919After reading the negative reviews, it sounds like some massive filtering is going on.
>>719859846>>719860040For dumb idiots like yourselves no game can be hard enough to the point it is unbalanced. It's a bullet hell game and you die in one hit? It's your fault, I'm a good player, I never die, it's balanced for me!!Like nobody cares tryhards. If the game is objectively unbalanced then it should be criticized.
>>719860153Define how a game can be balanced.
>>719859846>game is shit >we'll make it hard so shills can say skill issue
>>719858919Why does steam claim like 96% positive? Is it hiding """review bombs""" again?
>>719858919>"They're not giving reviewer copies because they believe the game is good!">"This time for sure!">The game was mid all along./v/ never learns...
>>719860326>>719859639they are hiding the chinese ones now that they changed the language stuff
>>719859846>>game is too hard to be enjoyable by a casual.>>Mechanics poorly explained.And these are not valid complaints because...?
>>719858919they didnt get sprint
Attention whores like cohncarnage that dropped it on purpose despite secretly loving it just to be one of the first faggots to do so for clicksBasically Shazam niggers but actually boughted
>>719858919its 96% if you're only counting english reviews
>>719858919I could see a lot of people dropping it immediately if they fall down the hole right in front of the first village.
>>719860587>americans are mostly npcswater is wet
>>719860648So China is good now?
>>719858919>what went wrong?Skill filtered /v/ faggots so they left a neggy.
>>719860774the only one that's worth complaining about is savage beastfly
I've done pantheon with all bindings.The difficulty curve of Silksong is fucked up. It's really disappointing to see damage sponges and 3 mask hits before you even have one health upgrade.
>>719860738there's no good npcs or evil npcs
>>719860910Health bars didn't even exist half the time back in my day zoomoidLike nigga just don't get hit like nigga just dodge
>>719860435because theyre both subjective and nebulous complaintswhat is "too hard" or even "hard"?What is hard for you may not be hard for me or vice versa, and for different reasons, maybe I struggle with reaction times, and so a slower pace would be easier, but maybe you struggle with predicting paths and dodging shit but the speed is fine, or, whatever.Its a pointless debate because even with an easy mode, it may or may not even fix what I found hard, same for you, or vice versa.AND thats ignoring "hard isnt bad, people like hard games, people like challenge, people engage with it more, people remember it more, its more satisfying to win"as for mechanics poorly explained... says who?the people who cant read? the people who REFUSE to explore? test? verify? Experiment?I remember when DSP said dark souls was poorly explained despite a button, being on screen, telling him what to press for more advice. If other people didnt have an issue at all, then it wasnt poorly explained, it was poorly recieved by morons who grew up being spoonfed and cant think for themselves (You)and... what is wrong with not explaining something? some people like discovery, like mystery, like hidden mechanics.you people just say something is bad, without actually explaining why its objectively bad. Ignoring it was never objective to begin with.theres 1000s of easy games that spoonfeed, 99.9% of them do. Let people have a challenge that respects the player to figure shit out.faggot.
>>719860910>The difficulty curve of Silksong is fucked up. It's really disappointing to see damage sponges and 3 mask hits before you even have one health upgrade.you arent supposed to go to hunters march that early, nigger, the damage youre taking is supposed to key you in to turn around and come back later you dumb, dumb motherfucking mouthbreather.of course, the option is there for people with the SKILL to not get hit as a way to do a different progression, probably on repeat playthroughs, just like... HOLLOW KNIGHT!
>>719858919Literally every review first week is worthless. Wait until people get 20+ hours in and more cracks might show
>>719860153>>719860238>>719860435Except (according to OP) 9 out of 10 people did not find it "too hard" or "unbalanced", twitch streamers are the bottom of the barrel IQ wise and they don't have those problems, which means the problem lies with the retard who can't read, or shit at platformers.
>>719861915>early reviews when it fits my narrative>"ha see?! this game is GOOD/BAD!! you lost!">early reviews when it doesnt fit my narrative>"now come on guys, they dont mean anything these people havent really played the game yet"youre not wrong, steam should seperate and flag reviews that are below X%, maybe 50%, of the games main story playtime (as asserted by the dev at launch, and later adjusted by data from players)no one should be talking about value 2 hours into a 20+ hour gamebut then, you cant ignore the need for "buggy game, is a scam, do not buy" ones either
>>719861512Graveyard in dark souls 1 all over again
>>719858919game launched with fairly major bugs. give it a week and it'll be higher.
>>719861512>you arent supposed to go to hunters march that earlyYes you are you braindead fucking shitter, you got filtered. Holy fuck you guys are bad at games.
>>719862379>game launched with fairly major bugsBut that was promised
>>719862061Twitch streamers are willing to cut off their dicks to gain 0.1 microseconds faster reaction time for their speedrunning career. Most people don't have the convinction to stick with a shit intentionally tedious game.
>>719862061Twitch streamers spend all day playing vidya, even if they're retards, they should be able to play a soulshit game, they just won't be able to solve a basic puzzle in like BOTW.
>>719858919AI generated
>>719860153You actually typed this.Yikes and cringe.
>>719864160says the nigger complaining the game is too hard and unbalanced lmaostop projecting, niglet.
>>719860435>Mechanics poorly explained.I've watched a streamer pick up the silk spear, with a big "press RB" on the screen, then have the game display again "press RB" when he needed it, and keep pressing B and using the heal and saying "wtf it doesn't work".
>>719865471yeah, back in my day DSP was a 'rare' case of retardnow its actually normal streamerfag behaviour.what the fuck actually happened? why are people so dumb and unwilling to lose, learn and experiment?
>>719865548All according to (((plan)))
>>719865471>>719865548>>719865645do you guys remember when the internet was going crazy because one non-gaming journalist couldnt air-dash in the cuphead tutorial?how the fuck are we at "professional gaming streamer" cant press a button, displayed on screen?Why did (((they))) set the bar so low? Is DSP redeemed?
>>719858919Gets boring after a few hours.
>>719860435The opinions of casuals are only worth 2/3rds of an opinion.
>>719859846Are you implying positive reviews on steam are any better? 99% of them are dumb kids posting memes and claiming a game is 10/10 because they enjoyed it.
>>719866378Damn those assholes giving positive reviews just because they liked it
>>719866378>claiming a game is 10/10 because they enjoyed it.steam doesnt do "x/y" scores. just a yes or a no review.>b-but the review SAI-who cares what they SAY or if they meme or not, thats a minority of posts.did they enjoy the game or not is all that matters, only a dumb nigger READS steam reviews to form oppinions for themselves kekstop being an indecicive coward and make your own opinions.
>>7198660682/3rds is generousLiterally 0% for meLike getting an opinion on how a car drives from someone who doesn't have their driver's licence
>>719858919Chinese aren't happy with the translation.
guys...reddit is turning on the game...
>>719867134Thank god Team Cherry just ignores social media entirely so they never even have to see retards like this and they just yell into the void.The only legit criticism is the damn compass and that's how it's always been.
>>719867134>there was honestly no way it could live up to what other Metroidvanias have since done better between the original game and nowWhat fucking metroidvanias have come out since Hollow Knight that have been objectively superior to it?
>>719867346Both Enders Salt and sacrifice Bloodstained (can't remember if it came out before or after HK)All of the above don't commit the cardinal sin of a metroidvania - Take longer than 20hrs to complete and overstay your welcome HK is bloatmaxxing, silksong looks like it will too. They're still 8/10s thoughbeit
I love when dumb niggers get filtered by a game and have to type up giant paragraphs on how the game is actually badly designed and unbalanced but it actually because they’re shit at the game lmao
>>719867663>its BAD, because... because... *panicks* uh theres too much content in this $15 game!>fast forwards>its BAD, because... because... *panicks* uh theres too much content in this $20 game!
>>719867663>Both Enderscomboslop>Salt and sacrificeWho?>Bloodstainedokay but fucking ugly
>>719867134Hey this faggot also wrote a steam review! Its full of words!
>>719867942
>>719867134>I NEED a map to navigatewhy are zoomers AND millennialls so bad at everything they do?
>>719867880Buddy, I said it was an 8/10, and you're malding HK fans not beating the cult accusations I only docked 1 point for the bloat, and 1 point for the subjectively ugly art styleIt's still a good to sometimes great game Smoke a joint or take a xanax or something
>>719867942>stalking some random dude to another platform because you didn't like their reddit postlol
>>719867134>>719867942>it's a tranny repellent gamedamn i might actually cop it
WHY IS THERE NO FUCKING BENCH OF HUNTER'S MARCH TEAM CHERRY YOU FUCKING NIGGERS I DON'T WANT TO SPEND MINUTES ON RUNBACKS
>>719868314>he didnt find the benchkek
>>719864456>dsp>asmonbald>casytronYeah, all top level streamers with impeccable reaction times and logical thinking abilities.
So how many zones are in the game?
>>719868334Found it. Literally pic related. Fortunately I had enough health.
>>719860435What explanation do the machanics require, exactly?The game is as intuitive as it gets, how much tard wrangling do you "people" require?
>>719859846After playing trough few areas and reading reviews there is one point I can agree with most of them- rosaries are far too scarce(at least for me, im in sixth area)I didn't lost them even one and traverse every area however I can. With this much I was only able to buy benches/fast travel 2 charms and one upgrade, thats all.I get it, they wanted to make it less farmable, but they could have put some as rewards for optional quests or drop from bosses
Fuck I'm gonna have to play this pre patch if I want the true experience Can't play till Tuesday Really hope they don't kowtow to shitters between now and then
>>719867134>another profile picture saves you from wasting your time reading episodegotta love it
>>719859846Cope
>>719858919Reddit already forgot about this game
>>719858919What's wrong with a high score?
>>719858919Devs are their own biggest fans and learned absolutely nothing from Hollow Knight's mistakes.Playing SIlksongs feels awful. All enemies take over 10 hits to kill. No damage upgrades anywhere. Everything costs money, everything is too limited, it just sucks the life out of you. If they had a single real person actually test this they would have learned it, but all their testers were team mebers or rabid HK fans.
>>719860819i hated that boss. the pogo section before was already testing my patience with the silk cocoon spawning at the end, but then the boss can easily take 4 masks of damage because he's so big that by the time the post hit invincibility wears of you're still inside his hitbox
>all these niggers complaining about diagonal pogo instead of retard proof vertical pogo and two health damage right out the gate plus more risk/reward healing Reminds me of shitters complaining about tank controls in old school RE and combat and healing in old school monhunCan't fucking wait to play bros
>>719860153I have never seen any criticism of Silksong (or Elden Ring, or Sekiro) that doesn't boil down to skill isuee
>>719871570>tfw to rich to cater to casuls BASED TC
>>719859846>> I'm too retarded to understand the mechanic therefore game badshould have used valve playtasters
>>719858919Probably they took too long to develop it. So all the mistakes that are glaringly obvious to anyone picking up the game for the first time, are something that was second nature to the devs 5 years in.>slow start feels like a slog>no movement ability until hours into the game>everything costs currency even basic map features>currency can be lost, which incentivizes boring currency grind to unlock basic things like map markers or the mapI mean, I am only 5~ h in so far, and even the level design could be better, not that its super problematic, but 3h in you get fucking hundreds of precise jumps as a requirement to progress, do you enjoy diagonal pogo? Well you better, the game after 3h is a lot of it. This would be ok late game, when the players got good at it, but having to do a 2-3 minute jumping session just to die to a boss/arena fight and then redoing the whole jumping session... jesus christ.Also fuck the giant ass area without any save spot that ends with a bench that is booby trapped.
>>719871708many such cases.we've had several names for that phenominom over the years, skill issue now, mad cuz bad... its a time honoured filtering
>>7198589191. woke2. blackrock money ran out
>>719858919Is there a single damage upgrade anywhere in this shitty game?
>>719867942>>719867998>>719867942lmao it's been almost a decade already and people still get filtered by the map lmao
>>719867942>the art design is greatI feel like I'm losing my fucking mind. It literally looks like a glorified flash game from 2004.Tasteless fucking plebian faggots just love their slop I guess.
>>719861256Don't sign your posts
>>719859098I feel the representation here on 4chan
>>719872661>phenominomYou are brown.
>>719871729yes very based saaar
>>719858919A good game should be challenging but rewardingA good game should allow multiple play styles which mean players who are not as good can still play and players who are really good still get a challengeA good combat game should have easy to learn fighting mechanics but difficult to masterSilksong has none of these.
>>719875857best post in any silksong thread
another indie fotm i will not buy
>>719860410who gives a shit about china?
>>719858919I've been playing for five hours and she hasn't said shaw or adino even once. Dogshit game.
>>719877657kill yourself
I don't get it, isn't 89% really good? why is this board so obsessed with steam charts now
>>719860153Silksong isn't that hard, though. I could see people complaining about a game like sekiro, but not this.
>>719877797>why this board behaves like children?take a guess
>>719877797That's with the chink debuff too
>>719877797lots of the reviews are meme too>Game is buggy XD /v/ is just fags rage baiting
>>719859019>Go woke go broke>Over half a million players in game on Steam aloneHuh
>>719860153Hornet 1in Hollow knight was a common filter that people would bring up in their negative reviews about that game and all she does is slowly walk back and forth, do a distinct audio que and then do 1 of like 4 attacks based on that audio que. Some people are just fucking retarded and their opinions about balance should not be considered.
dude the memes that sexualize the bug stick figure are hilarious because people aren’t conventionally attracted to bugs or stick figures HAHAHAHA GET IT! lmao
