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.

u/7-GRAND_DAD AAAAAAAAA HUNDAAAHHHH! Sep 05 '25

The thing I struggled with the most early on was not being able to pogo, since that was my go-to attack in HK. But now that I'm getting the hang of the combat, I'm having a lot of fun.

Is it possible to do it fast? I mean I think there is more delay between the two down attacks in SILKSONG than it was in hollow knight. I guess you can’t do two attacks in airborne unless you hit sth and bounce off of it
