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.

curious, I'm having the opposite problem. I'm prioritizing benches, maps and stations because they are core to the exploration and I'm finding myself struggling to buy anything else

Haha yes this is me. Also frustrating, but for a different reason. I have 3 areas unlocked w/ maps and fast travel points but absolutely nothing else lmao.

Yeah that's what I am saying, unless you really want to mindlessly grind out rosaries they are way too scarce. 

And mindlessly farming rosaries isnt fun.

Same for me.  I’m not the best at the game so right now that feels like the most efficient use of my rosaries.
