Last week I was: dipping back into Hollow Knight for old time's sake.
This week I've been: pondering that cramming a giant, secret-filled metroidvania into your head right before playing another giant, secret-filled metroidvania may be inadvisable.
Writing guides for PC Gamer, I almost always know what game I'm going to be playing next. But back in early 2017, before I was doing this job, I remember being torn between two newly released indie games I wanted to play. On the one hand there was post-apocalyptic eco-system simulator Rain World, and on the other, a unique-looking little metroidvania called Hollow Knight. Hollow Knight won out, and even though I've played many, many hours of Rain World since and consider it one of my favorite games, I don't regret choosing Hollow Knight. Or rather, letting Hollow Knight consume me.
