What am I in for? Interested in getting both.
They're both metroidvanias with insane amounts of backtracking and terrible methods of fast travel>hurf durf zoomerGoddamn SOTN was better in that regard
>>730724489Filtered
>>730724406Silksong is superior in every way.
>>730724406Amazing games with fun exploring and one of the best soundtracks in gaming (soundtrack only applies to hollow knight however)
>>730724406they're both really fun if you have patience to learn. good luck anon
>>730724406>What am I in for?anger, frustration, torture, cruelty.
>>730724884The music in Silksong is good, I just think the mixing isn't great by default, so it falls into the background too much if you don't reduce the volume on everything else.
>>730724406They're both really good and worth playing. Silksong in particular I think is outstanding amongst metroidvanias.
>>730724406HK is great. Silksong sucks, because they took all the bad parts from HK and made a game out of it.
>>730724406the first one has the most kino exploration ever in a 2D game, the second has a bit worse exploration but way better combat
>>730724406Just play the games, 99% of replies you'll get will be all ragebait, because these are some of the most popular indies ever.>>730724489>muh SOTNlmao
>>730724406Burnout
>>730724406>What am I in for?Slop
>>730724489feepeebeepeethe second one has a lot more of padding, but the highlights kinda make it worth it, depends on your tolerance for bullshit
>>730724406HK is good. Silksong is incredible. Silksong is definitely made for people who already beat the original so seriously finish it before you move on, don't just get one ending and go.
>>730724406Great games, i like both. I'd played and 100+% a bunch of castlevania's prior.Like anotheranon mentioned HK has better exploration, and SS has better combat, but neither by a large margin. They're cool games with sovl poured into them, if you liked Castlevania's before you'll like these too
>>730728674Samefag, and yes i recommend playing them in order
>>730724406If you managed to stay uninformed about these games after all those years, consider yourself lucky because going in blind in them is the best way you can play them.
>>730724406I only played HK. It's a good game. Toptier in many categories like aesthetics, soundtrack, map, unlockable stuff, difficulty, boss design, and atmosphere, but I just don't feel strongly about it. For one, the plot is barebones and I don't remember a single character besides Hornet.
