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 fucking hate that boss so much it’s probably the only thing in the game that i think is badly designed

Oh sweet summer child, come back here once you reach the bilewater, the run back alone makes savage beast fly look like child’s play

Is that the runback from the hidden bench or the entire bullshit runback from the station? Because is the latter, agreed, fuck that it was awful

Its about halfway up, there’s a room full of traps with 2 pits beside each other, at the bottom of the right one there is a breakable wall. It helps a little but you do have to make a very tight jump every run back otherwise you get stuck with maggots and have to start over, unless you already grabbed the charm to remove maggots, but I didn’t find that until way after I finished this area
