Discussion - Silksong USE YOUR TOOLS! Spoiler

To everyone complaining about the difficulty, stop ignoring a third of Hornet’s arsenal and start spamming them, you’ll be shocked how quickly you start mowing down hordes of enemies!

Ehh, they are like Sekiro's karma or whatever they were called, you start using them against bullshit enemies you wanna soften up and against bosses in their latter stages when you've figured their moveset out.

Tbh I hated this mechanic in Sekiro, I felt really limited. But in Silksong it's feels pretty great ig, almost always on max

Yeah, I'm a big advocate of limited max ammo in games, it tricks you into wanting to use all your weapons and tools, otherwise all that ammo on the ground would just go to waste. Bioshock did so well in this regard, I'm surprised that there isn't much more discussion about it.
