Pie is Amazing It's still a relevant comment.

[@slambotv1334]

Bobby snoopy Nooperson the third I totally agree. It gets ruined if you go in knowing anything about the game. You begin expecting it’s just this grey and blue network of tunnels, but then you get to Greenpath and you realise that the game is fucking beautiful. You keep going and you find this neat little jellyfish area called Fog Canyon. When you reach the City Of Tears you realise that the game isn’t just a bunch of tunnels. And the fucking rain in that area is *so* atmospheric. And it keeps getting better! You get grossed out by the Flukemons in the Waterways, you get angry at Primal Aspids in Kingdom’s Edge, and by then you’ve only covered like a quarter of the game. If you go down this big shaft you find this basin at the bottom of the world, and even below that you find The Abyss where all the ghosts of your dead brothers are. Then, you’ll get dragged into Deepnest and probably spend some time trying to leave for obvious reasons... you find more hidden areas like the Queen’s Gardens or The Hive... literally every new area in the game feels amazing to first walk into. When I first found The Hive, god I was happy. The game is so satisfying, too.Achieving those big moments like beating Nightmare King Grimm or getting the final nail upgrade... those kinds of moments are why I loved this game. And Silksong is on the horizon. Can’t fucking wait for that!!

[@reinirgi3376]

Legit looked up Hollow knight in the PS store after watching this video a few days ago. Then found out it was on more than a 50% discount with the already low price and it was an instant purchase. I'm probably near the end of the game (after getting the void heart) and I'm loving it so far, the gameplay and control is great. Just when I thought, "I wish I had this move" the next area rewards you with it. In addition, the difficulty is reasonably challenging despite the fact that you can go to most of the areas however early you want. Furthermore the charms make a huge difference and it would make certain things much easier with the right charms. Having trouble with platforming stages? Equip the hive blood charm so you don't have to worry about dying and starting from the bench as long as you can wait a few seconds after failing.

I also dislike the total removal chronological order and any aspect of being linear, the game leaves you to wander just a bit too much and people claim "it's like dark souls, it just doesn't hold your hand you big baby" I have over 400 hours across souls games, fromsoft is genius, LoZ BoTW was severely boring.

I can confirm.

Once I checked my completion, however, I found that I had only completed 63% of the game. This amazed me. After absorbing so much densely-packed content, I had only seen 63%? Because I was so satisfied with my experience playing, I set out to achieve 100% completion; I wanted to experience everything that it had to offer. Then, after going through once more and examining everything more closely, I got a very strong sense of how polished this game really was. Genuine quality is present all throughout the game. From the visuals to the plot to the exploration, it's awing. Never have I came close to a game that is so artistic.

[@Choinkus]

You know, Metroid Prime really is a hugely important series. We really didn't have enough FPS's. They're such a niche genre and I don't get why all the big companies aren't just pumping them out. Before Prime 1-3 came along I really felt like all Metroid was was just another metroidvania, a done-to-death genre by the time of the series' inception. So glad to see such an important series take a step in such a bold direction as making it an FPS. I sure hope they become big someday in the future.

I’ve been playing only Hollow Knight for the last few days and I can’t seem to get into it. It’s good, but it’s not like BotW where I couldn’t stop myself.

[@MrHater-su9iz]

@@broshi1752 it's better than botw because dat game lacks in having a great story ( tho is not bad by all means it's quite enjoyable ) anyway it also suffers a little with mediocre and dissapointing bosses and the voice acting can be a bit off at times while hollow knight just perfectly nails every aspect of what a great game should be it's almost flawless a beautiful gem of work do explain the problem as to why u couldn't get into hollow knight in more detail

[@broshi1752]

Mr. Hater Well first off, BotW’s voice acting is off because they can’t make the lips match seven different languages. Their mouths just move so it somewhat fits any language. As to why I can’t get into hallow Knight? My biggest problem is moving through the map. Sometimes I just want to get to a place, then I go there, then I have to walk all the way back, go to Dirtmouth to buy something, then go back to where I need to use a key or whatever. BotW gives you a warp all over from early on where as hallow knight I sometimes don’t wanna spend so much time just moving one place to another. Especially bosses. I hate when there is a big gap between a bench and a hard boss. It’s annoying as heck when I want just learn a boss’s moves but they kill me and then I spend more time walking back. I actually really enjoyed dream bosses like grey prince Zote. The boss is still hard, but I can actually focus on the boss instead of getting to him. And as for the story? I like good stories when the game itself is fun. I want to keep discovering more to the story, but it’s cheap bosses like Watched Knight that makes me want to just google the plot instead. Sorry to write an essay, but... I like hallow Knight, and I really want to live it, but I just can’t call it a perfect game like everyone else does. Edit: and I actually really enjoyed discovering new areas. One Saturday I played like 8 hours straight and I couldn’t stop because I was just unlocking all these new areas. Then I encountered a boss, fought it for an hour, then haven’t wanted to try again.

[@MrHater-su9iz]

@@broshi1752 the game never feels tedious there's stag station's all over the map to fast travel don't know if u notice.... anyway the game is simply hard but fair it requires more skill and patience from the player something u seem to lack watcher knight isn't even dat cheap the game even let's u kill one of them in case it's too hard for u and if u find too much trouble with a boss u can always go someplace else this simply isn't a flaw i can consider being the game own fault it just wasn't ur cup of tea

[@adamdecoder1]

Hollow knight's definitely a good game, and I'll give it a recommendation, but imo it's more frustrating at times than it is fun. The FUN part of the game is exploring new areas and overcoming challenges, and these parts of the game are superb. The NOT FUN part of the game is having to repeat 20 minutes of gameplay because the last bench/checkpoint was three miles back. The game also throws some prohibitively expensive items at you, meaning you have to hold on to your money for a long time. However, if you carry around a ton of unspent currency while exploring, you run the risk of losing it all if you die. Basically dying in this game feels SUPER terrible, and it happens quite a lot if you aren't familiar with the area. You can get your currency back at the spot you died, but if you die again before reaching it, poof, it's gone forever. They basically added a dark souls artificial level of difficulty and frustration to what was otherwise a beautifully crafted game, and the bad part about that is that it means the game encourages you to spend time farming currency from weak enemies in already explored areas. This SEVERELY ruins the pace and flow of the game for me, and makes it feel like I'm constantly moving one step forward and two steps back. If you want an uninhibited exploratory metroid-vania game with scaling challenges that don't feel unfair or overly punishing, tight mechanics and incredible flow, just play Ori and the Blind Forest. It's better in those areas. Although I will say Hollow Knight has far more compelling characters and a better story. I just hate how much backtracking and grinding there is. It's SO close to being a perfect game.
