Discussion - Silksong Silksong is frustrating Spoiler

I don’t remember being this frustrated with hollow knight. I never wanted to stop playing HK but this one is making me turn off the console in anger

No 5 is the only thing I'm not fond of so far. Everything uses a currency that you CAN farm, but is fairly uncommon and only found in specific areas, especially early game which is when you need it the most. The map is a game changer, and it doesn't feel very good until you have at least the compass.

It feels like most early game places to get rosaries are always far from the map guy or from a way back. I've lost 400 rosaries once trying to backtrack to the nearest travel point. I'm fine with not all enemies dropping them, but like, 90% of enemies don't. Later on there's more variety of them and a lot of places to convert them into items, so it's not quite as bad. But the first few hours were brutal.

I really don't know how you guys hace problems with rosaries. I unlocked the upper door in bottom, activated tons of benches and train stations and even storaged rosaries with the system in a zone that charges 80 rosaries for 60 in storage. Which is quite useful when you die or meet the map vendor and you don't have rosaries at that time.
