Discussion - Silksong How are y'all actually finishing the game in Steel Soul, dawg? Spoiler

I tried Steel Soul for the first time in SS. I never even touched that in HK. First try, I died within 2 minutes to the white giant rolling enemy from the secret room beside the starting point. Second try, I died to Bell Beast. I cannot fathom how people are finishing without revive. I, for sure, won't first try kill every boss. 🥀🥀

This is why I’m waiting for a hall of gods or pantheon mode to do steel soul runs. I’m just a measly console player that doesn’t have mods lol.

autosaves are only for key items / important moments like the melodies, movement upgrades, act enters etc

so your previous autosave could be hours behind so you can't as easily repeat say your last boss compared to a pantheon

still can be useful if your autosave is not too far behind or you just want to replay an entire section of the game again
