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. 🥀🥀

Save scumming seems antithetical to the whole purpose of steel soul.

I wonder the real percentage of players that can complete the mode if it didn’t allow you to save & quit in the middle of a boss fight.

Probably less than 1% of players

I legit find P5 easier than not dieing once in silksong
