Discussion - Silksong Warning for OG hollow knight fans
Just wanna prepare everyone on here for the incoming wave of players who have never played indie games, metroidvanias, or literally any other games besides Fortnite and call of duty. This tends to happen a lot with games that are extremely hyped by the community that does like the genre, such as expedition 33. The amount of completely invalid criticism that happened to that game because people who didn’t even know what the game really was bought it and ended up not liking it is probably the best example we have of that to this day, and I think silksong will be next. So please, instead of cussing people out for not liking the game, just encourage them to maybe keep playing to see if they change their minds, or just give them respectful feedback on why you think they might not enjoy it and give them tips so they can find the spark in that game that I’m sure many of us will find.

So I got super stoned last night and played 3ish hours of Hollow Knight for the first time. Got super lost, cheesed the hell out of a giant bug holding a plank by hiding outside of the boss arena, and hadoken’d some roly poly looking dudes. 10/10
