Everyone's talking about Hollow Knight Silksong, and that's understandable. It's one of the most obsessively anticipated sequels in recent memory, and it's a really fun metroidvania. It's also a brilliant excuse to re-open the reliably polarising difficulty in games debate.
I can't remember there ever being this much buzz for an exploration platformer before, but aside from the aforementioned difficulty, there's probably a few good reasons why you might bounce off Silksong. Perhaps you suffer entomophobia? Maybe you abhor protracted boss run backs? Or maybe you're just averse to hype and want to dive into Silksong once the buzz has quietened down and the post-launch updates have smoothed its roughest edges?
