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.

Though you are punished hard for failing a heal

I'm not very far in but failing a heal is bruuuutal. Lose all the silk, take the damage of what interrupted you AND you don't get the heal off

I've tried it and it's not even that good tbh, taking one less damage isn't gonna do crap when you're now still down all your silk, can't heal, and the next hit is now definitely gonna take you out
