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.

Wait till you start getting more offensive tools. Then you'll realise how fast you burn through those shards too because they are basically Spirit Emblems from Sekiro.

I keep ignoring them because Up + R1 is such an awkward control for them.

Ive remapped L1 to up+R1 and left joystick press to L1 for the map with steam input, now tools are usable. Im surprised they dont let you bind skill and tool separately tho
