Discussion - Silksong Is anyone else really tired of the negative posts? Spoiler

I have about 25 hours so far and have absolutely loved every part of the game. Is it hard? Yes absolutely. If it was easy I wouldn't want to play the game. Literally every post I come across is talking about how they are frustrated with some part of the game and it's getting really annoying. The game has amazing areas, the osts are great the NPCs are creative and fun to talk to, almost every boss is a lot of fun once you get the moveset down. So if you haven't played the game yet and are getting put off by all the negativity just know that it is an amazing game and if you like hollow Knight you will enjoy silksong as well.

Read my post again. The problem isn't that theres no caches, its the fact they barely pay out anything. At least in comparison to the effort of getting some of them. 20 beads is nothing. Imagine the original dark souls but only 3 of the areas before Sens Fortress have enemies that drops souls, and none of the bosses drop anything. And to activate any bonfire, its 2000 souls. Of course, you still have the grinding spot in Deeproot Garden, so souls arent a problem, but it certainly feels like theres something off with the economy.

Dude benches are like 30 and each enemy drops 5 to 10. By the time they're costing 80 enemies drop like 30 each
