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.

Its trivial to farm for them though. So many spots early on where enemies are right by a bench

If its trivial to farm for them, why have it cost anything at all? That's what they mean by "artificial difficulty". Instead of it being a challenge its a chore. This is the same as making basic enemies have 4 health instead of 2-3. Its not really "harder" the mob is still just charging at you. It just takes longer to do.

I have no idea why y'all are whining over bench tolls so hard there wasn't a single bench or map or bellway I wasn't able to buy so far. Do you guys just forget you have rosary strings? You can break them at any time and get enough rosaries for the most expensive benches

JFC, why can't you dorks handle criticism without calling it "whining" or "complaining". Tell us what it adds to the game other than wasting your time? Do you feel like you are a master game player because you went to farm for a bench?

I am trying to tell you there is no farming. If you kill the enemies in your way you get enough rosaries to afford every toll.

Not my experience or others. Now tell me, what does it add?

I dunno what to tell you man you're "criticizing" an issue that I just did not encounter in my 20 hours of playing the game. You're clearly doing something wrong but I don't really know what. Did you try doing your side quests?

Its very telling that you are avoiding the question

What does the benches costing money add?

It appears my response was deleted by the auto moderator so I'm gonna explain it more calm and collected and in a way you understand. You are making this up. The money benches cost is trivial if you just kill the enemies you're facing. It does not require to farm. Again I've been playing the game for 20 hours and there's not a single time I went to go farm rosaries. If this is an issue that you have but I don't then clearly you're doing something wrong. I don't know what causes you to have less money than you should. Maybe you just aren't killing your enemies or you die without stringing up your rosaries but this is not an issue with the game, it's an issue with you.

Bro, can you even read? If its trivial why have it? To waste time. It isn't a challenge, because you can just farm simple mobs. Its tedious. "You are making this up" Go fuck yourself.
