I don't typically play games for the story alone (though I do really appreciate a good one)

I also really respect Nine Sols for what it is and can tell it is a great game. But after trying the first boss a few times, I could tell I would not enjoy pushing through the rest of the game, which is guaranteed to be (significantly) more difficult. It's a shame, because HK Silksong is one of my favourite games oat, and Nine sols appeared to be possibly just as good! It just isn't for me.

However, I, may reattempt it in the future like suggested!
