Hollow Knight Silksong is the best worst game I’ve played in years. I almost hated the last 15 hours entirely, but I couldn’t put it down either. From a game design perspective, it’s just flawed. Great enemies though. A shame.

of course not, there need to be more options but also that

Accessible for everyone, yes.

It's bad design" is still MY take. Have you ever consumed any reviews? Jesus...
metalfy.bsky.social
oh my God, you got it! It's MY perspective :O
metalfy.bsky.social
it's unnecessary hard, not because it is difficult but because of many flawed game design choices

Fun is...fun is...WHAT?

In fact, fun is the soul of gaming

Silksong feels almost like it’s trying to frustrate the player on purpose by throwing an excessive amount of obstacles in their path. It messes up things that even the Souls series learned from. In my view, it’s flawed. A part or me still likes it.

please comment this under any media review you'll every find, thanks

Actually, I'm not stuck anymore. I'm at the final boss of Act 2. Thanks for the offer, though!

I think I would have enjoyed Silksong a lot more if it didn’t have so many unnecessary elements.

sadly, it's part of my job and I still have my fun with it...

1. nah

2. this solves an issue that shouldn't exist in the first place

- returning to the bosses often feels unnecessarily time-consuming

- losing pearls upon death discourages exploration and pushes you to repeat the same path

- very short i-frames make it possible to take multiple hits in quick succession

- can be grind heavy

Don't need to play Act 3 to know Silksong's game design is flawed af

Hollow Knight: Silksong is finally out and I’m really enjoying it too. Still, in some parts it feels more frustrating than fun, which really slows down the experience. It shows why it’s not a good idea to ignore 50 years of game design history:

Hollow Knight: Silksong – Das Spiel mit dem Frust
Über sechs Jahre nach Ankündigung ist Hollow Knight: Silksong endlich erschienen. Was macht das Metroidvania richtig und was nicht?

I'd call that inaccessible

METAL GEAR SOLID Δ was a blast! It doesn’t deviate much from the original - which is fine, given the original is one of the greatest. Sometimes the art direction is off and performance could be better, but the remake can be recommended to MGS newcomers and fans without hesitation.
