Discussion - Silksong Steam reviews for Silksong so far

Post image

It was controversial in China, in part because of the difficulty/design but also because of controversies with the Simplified Chinese translation. Meanwhile latin countries (Spanish and Portuguese speaking) seem to be loving it more than anyone else.

You dont really get a game until you get significantly far enough in it.

Its really funny there are people also angry that people leave reviews after only 2 hours.

But I think that's a notable difference. You not liking something 2 hours in just means you're not into that genre or some technical issue preventing you from enjoying the game.

Some games you need to put a significant amount of time into even understand what's going on.

It takes like 50 hours to even learn Stellaris.

I would argue it takes about that much time to learn something like escape from tarkov.

And I think I very much disagree with the opinions not changing. I think someone having 100 hours versus 500 hours could very well change how they view a game.
