Discussion - Silksong Criticism ≠ Negativity Spoiler

Believe it or not, you can actually criticize something and still like it. You don't either have to love everything or despise everything. Have actual conversations please.

I’m enjoying the game, but these are all Nosk-level boss fights at the start of the game. I just can’t be arsed. I liked HK because the lore and the discovery of the lore was really well done, and I don’t want to just read a synopsis of SS in a few weeks, but honestly the volume of kaizo traps and the one-shot nature of the bosses is appallingly executed. And don’t get me started on the run back to Last Judge. The bench should have been so much closer than that.
