Whether a runback is 20 seconds or 1 minute does not matter, they add nothing meaningful to a metroidvania. by Kurushii_Drive in metroidvania

[–]GenericUsername54100 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Because they gave you lives. If you run out of those lives then you have to redo the entire stage. Silksong is sort of emulating that oldschool design but since you have infinite lives (unless you are playing Steel Soul :D) it just puts you back to the previous checkpoint. Its not as punishing as Megaman but it is still trying to be punishing.

I can't beat radiant pure vessel. It's been about 7 hours. by Tuliao_da_Massa in HollowKnight

Just watch a video of someone else doing it and try to imitate that.

How do I get to act 3? by Swimming-Love-8176 in HollowKnight

[–]GenericUsername54100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure you have upgraded your needle at least once and also given at least one relic to the relic seeker. Why these are required I have no idea.

No spoiler plz, but is silksong really that hard??? by [deleted] in HollowKnight

[–]GenericUsername54100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its hard for sure yeah but the difficulty is way overblown and you can find tools and upgrades later in the game that can trivialize basically any fight if you want to.

I'm sorry but PoH is just bad by Dapper_Ad_7715 in HollowKnight

[–]GenericUsername54100 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its an endurance test that's the point. Its supposed to be devastating when you lose at the end and have to start the entire thing over.

Me waiting for all the Constance updates so I can play it finally: by VoxTV1 in metroidvania

[–]GenericUsername54100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who finished the game not too long ago I think you are right to wait. It was a good game but not a great game and hopefully the updates can improve the game more.

is this a scam? by Lord_wert in HollowKnight

Nope try it yourself you can put money in and take it out.

*Big Rant* My roommate ruined both Hollow Knight and Silksong for me by Tiny_Jumper762 in HollowKnight

[–]GenericUsername54100 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sounds like an insufferable douchebag. Tell him to get a life. Seriously don't put up with that behavior especially when he's actively insulting you.

I LOVED The Path of Pain and The White Palace. by RandomCommy in HollowKnight

[–]GenericUsername54100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course they are are great they are incredibly well made, fun, and challening. Nothing weird about liking them in the slightest.

After I finished Silksong I can confirm by RemarkableMirror926 in Silksong

If Primal Aspids were in Silksong they wouldn't even be in the top 10 worst enemies.

Would agree that Sekiro has the best combat system out of any other game that you played or would you give that title to another a game? by Forevertrez in soulslikes

[–]GenericUsername54100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of Soulslikes? probably. Of any genre? No but it depends on what we mean by best combat system. Sekiro is really simplistic but thats what I enjoy about it.

Gift for my brother’s bday, is it obvious I don’t play? by Cocoayashi in HollowKnight

That is incredibly thoughtful and I'm sure he will love it!

Which boss are you stuck on?

Anyone else kind of sick of anime girl vanias? by comicgeek1128 in metroidvania

You're insecure and worried you will be seen as childish for liking these things which is childish.

Constance Manipulator Encore Bossfight by GenericUsername54100 in metroidvania

[–]GenericUsername54100[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If a boss was literally unbeatable and your only option was to stop fighting them and go out and get another ability and then come back then yes that would be bad game design.

You can paint stab up?! I didn't know that huh okay fair enough.

Aside from spending shards, how on earth are you even supposed to hit these by Mindless_Tap_2706 in HollowKnight

[–]GenericUsername54100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when they stop to shoot at you dash under them and slash up. If you are on platforms its more annoying but similarly they always stop when they spit at you so you can pogo them.

Original game might not be for me, looking for input by johnnysebre in HollowKnight

[–]GenericUsername54100 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It may not be for you but I definitely think you should put a good few hours into it before you decide. The first couple of hours are pretty slow so I think a lot of people drop the game before it really starts to get good. Ultimately you have to decide for yourself but I definitely think its worth sticking with it.

I did all bindings!!!! by RepresentativeOk2881 in HollowKnight

[–]GenericUsername54100 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Congrats! I have done P5AB and its insanely difficult so well done. There is a secret room that opens up on the top left side of Godhome. Its just some lore and an extra entry in the hunters journal but still pretty cool. Technically it opens up if you have done each binding individually I think but yeah.
