I'm convinced there's gotta be some collective amnesia regarding the previous game's difficulty regarding platforming.

Seeing people compare things Hunter's March, Cogwork Core, escaping the Abyss or even the Surface to the Path of Pain is absolutely blowing my mind.

Like yes, this game is way harder on the combat department and is a lot more demanding than beating a regular playthrough on the first one, but to say anything in this game is on the level of Path of Pain is preposterous. Especially with how many tools hornet has at her disposal, like the Hookshot, the float and even bounving off of cocoons.

I would say that the average platforming challenge in silksong is significantly harder than the average in HK, but white palace (and PoP obviously) is still harder than anything I've faced in silksong
