>Team Cherry made their game difficult on purpose because they hate normies being fans of their game Honestly based.
>>720102862The devs are frierenfaggots so they're hardly helping themselves in that regard.
>>720102862If this was their intention they are indeed based. Imagine all the reddit salt you’d be laughing at.
>>720102862They made it that way because they're not very good developers, and lack the skill to make the game something better.
>>720103237t. filtered
>>720102862i don't think it's even that fun of an excuse. it's just what happens when you have your game playtested by diehards for 8 years because you think placing pieces of tiles individually makes your world look significantly different than placing whole tiles
>>720102862>they're laughing at the normalfags while counting their money
>>720103542They are jews
>no review copies for journos so Ranjeesh has to work 18 hour days to shit out a half-baked review>forces other indies to clear the month for SILKtember>$20 when other indie devs are trying to justify charging $30+>hardcore difficulty filters all the casual hype chasers who didn't even play Hollow KnightThese devs are beyond based.
>>720103237Explain why the first game is so easy until the optional challenges then.
>>720103994you're challenging him to explain himself when you're providing his argument for him. they couldn't properly balance the base game, figured it out for later content, then spent 8 years overtuning their dlc.
>>720103994You simply got good at the game and memory holed dying to the mantis lords 15 times.
>>720102862>notice how cancerous the fanbase became>spend 7 years summoning satan and feeding him as much hate as possible to make the ultimate cock and ball torture>basically shadowdrop it out of nowhere, ruining the plans of a ton of smaller devs>also make it extremely cheap for current standards, ensuring not only that everyone can afford it but also that people look down on greedy publishers from now onWe've witnessed the most based power move a game dev has done in recent times, and instead of celebrating it, most of /v/ is crying about falling for it.
>>720102979Thought they'd be Made In Abyss fans...Viewing order is S1, recap movies (watch to fast forward to new content) Dawn of the Deep Soul movie, S2.
>>720102862They don't want the normie audience they just wants the retards
>>720104182Mantis lords were easy. It was that soul bitch, fuck him.
keep in mind they already said they plan on making DLC which will probably be Godhome with all bindings tier levels of hard. the seethe will be glorious
I told you faggots, enjoy your tortanic
>>720102862if it's like the first one it's approachable, quit malding
>>720104182Honestly true I died to Hornet 1 an embarrassing amount of times until the gameplay clicked. Pogoing was another thing that took an embarrassingly long time to master. Don't think silksong is much different. People need to learn the mechanics
>game about to release >make every basic enemy deal double damage>huge shit storm about difficulty ensues>"it can't be that hard!" type of purchases skyrocket It's a very clever marketing strategy. Now just wait 3 months or so until they release a "story mode" where enemies deal normal damage so now all the casuals think they have a shot at beating it and buy the game too.
>>720102862The incredibly fine tuned difficulty excludes normies who expected it to be like sitting through a saturday morning cartoon.The cute art style excludes sweaty kids and chuds that expect hurr durr violent serious shit.It leaves only truly cultured people like myself to enjoy this perfection. Thank you, normies, for funding this insane shit getting made for seven years. Team Cherry are gods among men.
>>720102862I'd be laughing my ass off>NOT THE RUNBACKS NOOOOOOOOOOO
I just hate contact damage being 2 for some enemies like the big choir enemies with the violin bow sword. It just goes from hard to infuriatingly annoying when you are spacing the slashes but are off by a little and the love tap does as much as the slash you avoided.
>>720106896I don't know who to believe.One half has >100% HK and say SS is much harder and the skills don't transfer and you're better off not having played HK recently.the other half says that it's mandatory to play HK before
>>720107356Literally just get good. You can dash attack them and hit 1 more time for 3 hits before they even finish their wakeup animation. They telegraph every move they're about to do too, so you have plenty of time to go in, attack, dash, etc.
>>720105508>most of /v/ is crying about falling for it.I'd rather play a fun game.
>>720107348>Thank you, normies, for funding this insane shit getting made for seven years.What do you mean? I only bought Hollow Knight and I had fun playing it. That's what made them millionaires and what funded Silksong.I won't buy Silksong because it's too hard.
>>720107356>I just hate contact da--Git gud.>But 2 mask--Git gud.
>>720107457Nigger that's what I'm doing. But you can still easily get clipped when you do dash > da > air slashes to avoid the horizontal slash they do since they move forward, which is fine but why is getting clipped the same damage as the slash
>>720107623You're not dashing fast enough.
>everybody bitched that it's baby's first metroidvania>they made it for advanced gamers>everybody bitched that there's too much geo>they made stingy economy and made you pay for benchesReap what you sow
>>720105508except the most cancerous part of the fanbase is the people that do pantheon 5 all bindings blindfolded speedrun on a DDR pad and pretend that's normal, so idk how making silksong harder does anything to fix that
>>720107526>I only bought Hollow KnightCongrats, you funded Silksong getting made. Thank you!>I won't buy Silksong because it's too hard.Congrats, you're a normie. That's fine though, not everybody needs to enjoy everything.
>>720102862>mods ur gamePshh nothin personell kid
>>720107641I laughed my ass off at the back to back temporary benches and the confession booth in the capital
>>720103568They priced their game at $20. The most anticipated game of the past 5 years. They could have charged $60 and made the same amount of sales, but they didn't.
>>720107791NTA but I have like 3 copies of HK and the Physical edition. Team Cherry won't be getting a 2nd purchase of Silksong from me.
>>720108025Wow, thanks for sharing, anon. Very cool
>>720108025Thanks for funding Silksong :)
There has never been a criticism of Silksong that didn't come down to skill issue.
>>720108107Sad, but true!
>>720108107The music isn't as good as the first game.
>>720108242Yeah makes me sad, the initial area has nice music but no greenpath or queens garden so far…
>>720104182Lmao. I first timed every boss in hollow knight until the soul tyrant/dream version of lost kin. Until then it wasn't even a game. Meanwhile in silksong I got my shit pushed in by literal jobber shitter monsters in the overworld or bosses that shouldn't have caused me problems. I did pantheon 5 all bindings, I have radiant on every boss in godhome. Sure there's a little muscle memory thing going on with the pogo or iframe dash but they really ramped up the early game in Silksong compared to HK which was a breeze
>>720107764video games aren't for you>>>/tv/ is that way, stay there please
>>720107638I'm using the Sprint speed equipment plus the flea lean, I literally couldn't go faster if I tried
>>720102862The first game was hard and beloved. The second game is hard and beloved. Shitters will mald into the void and no one will care.
>>720108107I do not like how the game changes my crest when I get a new one with no option to set tools on the new one and I have to go back to a bench to change it.
>>720108960>second game>belovednot according to steam stats lmao
>>720108107Rosaries add nothing of worth to the game. They exist to waste time and to allow the devs to pad out "secrets" they couldn't be bothered to put anything good behind
>>720109019>90%+ outside of China and Anon, I'm sorry you have to go through this. When objective reality doesn't align with your delusions, it's hard for schizophrenics to coexist on this plane.
>Goldblatt>Fineman>Stein
>>720109092Are anons genuinely seething, or a people shitposting because its the kind of thing they think someone would seethe about
>>720109092Ok?Bitch was flashing her bare ass in the very first game.
>720109092>720109137(You)
https://youtu.be/RE_-97W-CpEIt's okay to be bad at video games. It's even enviable. It's when people reject struggle that I become dissapointed. People who avoid obstacles and play nothing but casual games are basically trash to me.Any normalfag can enjoy a challenge, and so too can /v/.
The game has a worse OST than Dread, and that's saying something
>>720109180I hate it when normal fags talk about shmups and call them all "bullet hell" without even understanding what that means(Electric Underground actually did a pretty good video on this, though), not watching your faggy video
>>720109092She looks like she fucks human men
>>720108107Normal enemies are too hard, that is pacing issue. Am I supposed to fight every one of them and turn the game into a slog or run past them and disassociate from the game. More of an act 2 problem
>>720108107What's so bad about having skill issues?The game is too hard for me so I won't buy it.
>>720109348You sound very intelligent.
>>720107267>Now just wait 3 months or so until they release a "story mode">game already has Steel Soul counterpart and a x2 DMG item >several crests straight up prevent healing in favor of more aggressive attacksLmao this retard
>>720109528You sound like an obnoxious faggot
It is too hard compared to the first. You have to be aboslutley perfect otherwise you take contact damage and it's annoying. Hollow knight was a chilled game my gf watched me play while we chatted but this one is too sweaty for that
>>720109618Funny enough using the Wanderer Crest and getting that HK moveset back made the game chill for me. Shorter range but damn it's comfy just pogo-ing on everything and not worrying about stuff.
>>720107356Bro your parry??
>>720108242You're fucking delusionalBellhart theme is a masterpieceSo is the music for the Citadel
>>720109242I'm still in Act 1 but I have yet to hear anything that sounds memorable. I wonder if the song from the original trailer is even in the game, because man that trailer was good.
>>720109618>my gf watched meThis is the people who use /v/ now
>>720109668>pogoingeven the first section with the red pogo flowers is bullshit compared to the mushrooms in HK. The reason I even enjoyed HK is because it was chilled with a little bit of challenge, like elden ring or something. Now it's like ghost runner or katanzero
>>720109137Jews are responsible for like 99% of good things that happened in the history of mankind so this isn't exactly surprising
>>720109823Ive been here for probably 18 years anon. If you haven't figured out how to speak to women by now you're just retarded
>>720109618It is insane that the contact damage is so high when the beast crest is in the game>both charge attack and dash attack jump you forward>50% of the time you just fuck up and take contact damage because of very slight timing issue because you always have to factor that forward movement in fast paced fightsEverytime I take 2 damage because of this i want to scream.
>>720109865>is bullshitOddly enough I find pogoing to be extremely easier in SS
>>720109906>Ive been here for probably 18 years anon>I've been making shitty posts and calling any form of effort or engagement with a hobby "sweaty" for 18 yearsMaybe its time to move on then.
>>720109865Just wanna let you know that Hollow Knight was originally designed entirely around starting with 3 masks. The game was meant to be hard. They changed their minds at the last minute and decided to pull punches by giving an extra 2. In HK's case, it was probably the right idea as it likely helped the game get mainstream. But now that TC has made it and don't need to worry about sales, they can do what they want how they want. Silksong is what Hollow Knight was supposed to be in terms of difficulty.
>>720109865The funniest thing about the red flowers is that they're lined up in a diagonal line. So you pogo off the first, then the second, then you just completely miss the 3rd because it doesn't actually line up with your diagonal dive. It's really best to just save any pogo for Reaper or Wanderer. I can't even imagine trying to do any pogo segment with the Beast Crest.
>People who played every Souls game since Demon's Souls play Elden Ring>Hey this is kind of bullshit compared to the previous games>NO YOU JUST SUCK GET GOOD Every time
>>720110086I might be the only person that doesnt mind pogoing with any crest. Yeah even beast, i just always try to make space so i can do so because beast's dive is massive.
>>720110031If they want their next game to sell they'll adjust it for the people who won't be buying it because they dropped Silksong. But then again it's not like they can just make the maps smaller and remove Bilewater.
>>720110169There isn't a single mainstream game that is unfair. Every game that has been cleared by more than 100 people can be beaten by a chimpanzee.
>>720110012That's not what I said now is it you little pedophile. SS is quite clearly harder than HK and that's the very slight 'issue' here as its not what I expected
>>720110235They'll make their next game harder because they're making games for fans of their games
>>720110481They won't make a next game.
>>720110086>>720110176I don't even have any combat changing crests so I guess that's why it's annoying. Will just come back later
>>720102862Game was literally supposed to be a DLC for the first as a sort of "New Game+ mode" so no shit. The game is designed under the presumption that you beat Hollow Knight and know what you're doing.
>>720110235They dont need it to sellThey each have more money than they'll ever know what to do with and are set for lifeThey make games out of passion entirely and will do what they want regardless of sales
>>720110417Your exact words were that it's "too hard" and that it's "annoying." Maybe you should leave 4chan and you can Netflix and chill with your girlfriend you still haven't married yet despite being in your mid-30s. Let's keep it real. I don't wanna hear you bitch and moan like some dumb normalfag, I'm not your girlfriend and this isn't twitter. You can't play it in front of your girlfriend because its "too sweaty"? What does that even mean? Are you screaming and punching your monitor like a gorilla? You people have been poisoning this website for a long time.
>>720110550zote still alive tho
>>720108107The runback to Last Judge is pure cancer, even after I memorized it and could get to her consistently. And apparently that isn’t even the worst runback in the game.
>>720106416After Anohanas terrible movie I am NEVER watching recap movies EVER againPure ass cancer
>>720103237Stop being a Better Gamer
>>720110865>The runback to Last Judge is pure cancerYou've been posting this obviously wrong remark all day. Can you stop? It's embarassing.
>>720111546i think you actually took the long route here, there's a path up to the left after those first few platforms that skips some pogoingregardless i agree, last judge runback isn't that bad
>>720108242unironic skill issue level up your ear game
>>720111546Why did you take the long way?
>>720111917Because I didn't actually have to retry the boss, the fight was very easy
>>720110713>virgin incel ragesad
>>720102862Everything about this has been a W for them. Hollow Knight set them up for life so they are basically retired and making games for fun. How many devs make games with traditional difficulty, that are this consumer-friendly? These games are exceptional platformers, they deserve to be right up there with my favourite SNES and PS1 games.
>>720102862>fails to gatekeep>attracted every grifting nigger eceleb streamers, even the non-gamerslol sucks to suckbut jokes aside I don't think they care about that at allgood on them, getting to make a game that they like without feeling pressured too much
>>720103237>Implying hard equals badLmao.The game is good and hard.Deal with it.
>>720110235I’m sure they’ve still got enough money from Hollow Knight to make literally whatever they want.
>>720112796But the backlash ensures that normies will stay out of the fandom. People are dropping like flies. Thank fuck they can keep making hard games.
>>720110176I think people don't realize that you can hit things horizontally with the best pogo. It's really easy to use outside of downhill sections, where it is borderline unuseable.
>>720106416No mention of the manga? Sheesh
>>720104182/thread
>>720102862This is false.People make their games hard because the main game is super short.Thats the secret. Short games gets harder difficulty. It has always been like this. From the NES era.
>>720115484This game isn’t short though. And it’s longer if you’re good at it.
>>720107348Holy cringe
>>720115527It can be beaten less than 1 hour if you speed run it.
>>720115603He’s not wrong
>>720115645He is
>>720102862>game difficult on purpose>5 minute run backs to the boss is considered difficulty to fromsoftroons when its just irritatingDark souls has been a disaster to the gaming industry.
i'm just starting but rosaries are very important yet so scarce, it's annoying
>>720118236just play naturally till you reach the citadel, everywhere else people are poor and TC went the route of having enemies drop how much they'd realistically have
