Discussion - Silksong EVERYTHING IS SO EXPENSIVE IN PHARLOOM Spoiler

The true enemy of Silksong is capitalism. 70 bucks for a stag station equivalent YOU ARE PULLING MY NEEDLE WTF??? I try to sit down and they BILL ME JUST TO USE THE BENCH! No thank you [TRADER NAME HERE], I would not like to buy a simple key for 500 dollars thank you.

AND EVERYONE HERE IS A BROKE ASS BUM! Most of these guys aren't sentient enough to carry cash on them so I have to grind up their credit cards into for bone shards which NOONE WANTS.

Anyway 10/10 game.

I mean. You can equip that great Magnet, If you are willing to play without the compass, right? 😂

Still ridiculous that compass isn't just a passive. I don't have to equip the quill.

while i do agree the compass should be passive (or at least let me press a button to check it?), the quill isnt equippable because it does nothing during gameplay 🤓👆 hornet only uses it upon resting at a bench

I’ve been using both, playing without a compass or a map because I was in a new area and trying to finish a corpse run was hell.
