>you can get Hollow Knight & Silksong for cheaper than Metroid Dread ON SALE
>2 of the very best Metroidvanias in the entire genre with infinitely more content than Metroid Dread
>people would rather buy Dread aka the most linear Metroidvania in existence with moviegame scenes
Why do Nintendo fans have such shit taste?
>>
shouldnt have used such a popular game as an example, it'll trigger the schizoids
just take any semi-well known indie metroidvania and it's bound to be better than metroid
>>
I guess the real question is why does it make you so steaming mad? Haha!

played Dread in 2021 and HK last year, yet I remember more about Dread than HK. I suppose HK is too monotonous and long

Fake fan, fuck off.

I've played all of them. You won't like my top pick out of these three.

Only the most braindead of poorfag niggers base their decision of what game is better based on the length of the game.

Could be worse.
Could be taking advice from here.
>>
>>747745401
well see the games are also better so there's that
very rude of team cherry to not think of other developers when they created two of the greatest value propositions in the history of video games
>>
>>747746241
Miss me with that tranny shit
>>
reminder that metroid and castlevania games are dadgamer shit if played vanilla, which is why it's loved by most of /v/
these games are only engaging when you actively attempt to speedrun them meanwhile baseline HK and silksong ask more of the player. no wonder the games are hated by the casuals and posers on this brown board

I wouldn't buy Silksong again even if it was $5.

>>747741817
I bought and played all of them
What now?

When the alternative is normalfags, yes advice from here is superior in every way, shape, and form
>>
>>747741817
>people would rather buy-
They're all available on Switch and Switch 2, as shown in your picture. I bought all three.
>>
>>747747590
Not always. The demographic sample has evolved over the years, now /v/ is infected with people who simply don't play games. When silksong released there was one guy who got filtered by fourth chorus (an easy spectacle boss fight, like many fights in metroid) and got so angry he started spamming CP in the threads. Not every poster here is worth taking into account

you can get all 3 of them if you aren't poor btw ;^)

HK is remembered fondly by zoomers who warped their entire personalities thanks to Undertale and Steven Universe
It was their introduction to the souls formula because Dark souls 1 and 2 where too scary for them

Team Cherry says otherwise

>>747749342
I played it last year and I think it's a genre-defining game
>>
>>747741817
Dread is better than either of those games.
>>
>>747741817
maybe because they don't want to play as cockroaches?
>>
Samus is cooler than some cutesy bugs.
Indie devs are weirdly opposed to just making cool characters, everything has to be some quirk chungus scrimblo.
>>
People don't assume movies, TV shows, books, or albums are better if they're longer. Why should they assume games are?
>>
>>747749342
Post any clears
>>
>>747749548
It's absolutely not, only the production value is better. metroid dread is a game that plays itself compared to both hollow knight and silksong, it's legitimately like trying to compare MGS to Ninja Gaiden
>>
Why are indieslopers so insecure, while Metroidchads are so self-confident?
>>
>>747751801
You obviously didn't 100% it. The shinespark mechanics alone are more intricate than anything in HK or SS.
>>
i never played the original hk but i finishes silksong and im never, ever, ever replaying silksong again. My completion time getting 100% everything and even doing extra bullshit like the bestiary was over 100 hours,
I've beaten metroid dread over 10 times, and even beat it on dread mode recently.
Dread is the better action game

>infinitely more content than Metroid Dread
Unironically this is a bad thing. Also applies to Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown and even Dread is pretty close to being too much. Metroidvanias should be 6 hours long at the absolute most.
>>
>>747752654
>>747752282
the games are only as long as how bad you are at them, it's that simple
without even speedrunning you can clear both of them 100% in less than 10 hours. this argument does not hold water

Cool thing about the Switch 2 is that all of them are on it and you can enjoy them all instead of whining like a lil bitch

>>2 of the very best Metroidvanias in the entire genre
Which games are you talking about?
>>
>>747752052
1% of optional content that is not in line with the rest of the game. I also did them but they're not representative of the game as a whole, it's still a stroll. Both Hollow Knight and Silksong are pro-gameplay and anti shitter repellent
>>
>>747741817
>you can get two retarded faggot pedophile games for the price of 1 good game
Waow

>>747753271
I haven't played Silksong but Hollow Knight felt fucking abysmal to play. Shitty Mega Man X-style movement with zero momentum, a binary on/off dash, braindead walljumping, HP sponge enemies, bosses with very basic patterns, shoehorned Souls elements (bloodstains and losing currency on death), lack of visual variety in the environments, pretentious "muh deep melancholic lore" shit, and taking what could theoretically be a fun set of abilities and movement options and dividing them up into badgets that you have to waste time fiddling with to make your "build". Unless Silksong fixes most of those issues, I can't see it being much better.
>>
>>747741817
Hollow Knight games are too long and boring, horribly overrated
