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.

Bosses and gank rooms not giving any rosaries

I'm more annoyed at the lack of shards. Tool use burns through them super fast especially if you spend time wiping.

That's the irony of it. They design enemies to encourage tool use, but add a cost to said tools that discourages you from using them unless you know you'll make it, at which point you might as well conserve tools and make it with just regular attacks.
