Do we wanna bet how often the answer is „Silksong“? 🤣
As for me: definitely be playing Silksong. Started yesterday, so far loving every second of it.
Yes playing Silksong for sure. However at some parts of the game I wonder if I accidentally switched over to Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy.
I thought exactly the same thing after falling down that hole and landing exactly where the game starts you off after traversing all the way to the top.
Heh, we generally have a regular set of users that reply to these threads, and I don't think most of them will be playing Silksong right now, let's see. 😀
How is it compared to Hollow Knight?
I played it so long ago, I am not even sure if the comparison will benefit me, but still could be interesting.
My son is playing it nonstop!
Nice. How long is the game? Similar length to original HK?
My son reports he’s ten hours in. I don’t buy it; I feel like he’s been playing for twenty hours straight. I did just walk in on him doing homework, though.
Heh.
I will be one of those not playing it yet!
There are dozens of us! Dozens!
If you know your footing around Hollow Knight, you can get around here. Healing works differently so far, took a moment to really get that.
Loving it, but I miss the feeling of awe I felt when first diving into Hollow Nest. Not exactly breezing through, died a couple of times already. But it seems to me that I am progressing pretty fast.
Still, loved Hollow Knight? Silksong is a No brainer.
Yeah, I am looking forward to it, which in my world means I'll play it within next 3-5 years, but at this price and a well polished game, I probably don't have to be that patient.
It’s honestly nuts they sell it as cheap as they do. Can’t go wrong with that
Yeah, I am sure that's one of a big reason why so many people bought it day-1. It would have still sold pretty well anyway, but the price point probably made tons of people to get it sooner than they would've otherwise.
