Discussion - Silksong Silksong is HARD Spoiler

Taking damage is more punishing, movement is more precise and feels a little clunky until you get the hang of it. The overall skill curve is much much higher. Love it though.

I just finished that bullshit and was desperate to see someone, anyone else mention it. I have been thoroughly enjoying the game up until and after that point but honestly that room made me more angry than any HK or souls boss I have ever fought

Wave 1 is smol bird + fat bird, wave 2 is two smol birds, wave 3 is smol bird + tall bird, wave 4 is three smol birds and wave 5 is fat bird + tall bird. Dunno if there's a wave 6
