I've been playing Silksong. And it is everything I could've wanted in a sequel. There is a ton of content, and I do mean a literal ton of content. Think you're almost finished, that you've acquired all the abilities, found all the areas, and now just need to search meticulously through every area to get to that 100% completion? Wrong! Here's a million more things to do, and tons more story content.
The difficulty of this game is what I've been most worried about during the wait. I was a little worried that, as someone who's gotten all achievements, done the path of pain, and beat P5 with all bindings (separately) in Hollow Knight that Silksong would be a little too easy. My biggest fear was that I would steamroll my way through the game until maybe the last few bosses, never really being challenged. Was this the case? Heck no. This game is incredibly difficult and challenging, more than Hollow Knight every was. Team Cherry may have gone a little too far in some areas, (looking at you, double damage hazards) but overall this game has been an extremely fun, challenging experience for me that has by far surpassed Hollow Knight. (Steel soul is going to be insane).
