In honor of bapanada I loaded up a fresh file and played through to the first Hornet fight. Like a comfy sweater.

I'd be remiss if I didn't crosspost this here from a discord server I am in comparing Hollow Knight disfavorably to Metroid Dread.




Most of the knight's abilities are optional or non-combat related, which both limits the design space of the combat and makes bosses a little more dull because of it.
That being said, I feel like HK's combat feels better moment-to-moment in boss encounters, but I think this might also be because a few of Dread's bosses suffer from most of the difficulty being in finding "the trick" and then applying a relatively "odd" movement in conjunction with the "normal" shoot 'em up.

Second Ori is a direct ripoff of Hollow Knight. I enjoyed it much more than the first.

I liked the first one better because it was more it’s own thing

And the story wasn’t quite as far up its own rear end.

I liked both Ori games, I just thought the Will of the Wisps story had more than a couple beats where it felt like the plot was sledgehammering me with stuff that was attempting to be like a Pixar movie rug pull.

I just want Silksong to come out so that it can outclass Tears of the Kingdom in every possible way and I can stop hearing people talk about how great it is.

No, I'm not bitter I don't have TotK yet, where did you get that idea?

TotK is a lot of fun, but definitely a very flawed masterpiece.

Unlike Silksong, it was actually released.

It's not a masterpiece. Not even close. It can't be with how many flaws it has. Some are easily correctable in a patch, others are bad mechanics that are held over from the first game.

The best part of TotK is the stuff that is outside of the game itself. Building stuff is great. 10/10. The rest of the game is middling and almost as bad as BotW in terms of Zelda games.

I was being tactful. People get really defensive about their zeldas.

Hope is the bastion of fools. I'm sweating profusely for unrelated reasons.

Precept Forty-One: 'Learn to Detect Lies'.

When others speak, they usually lie. Scrutinise and question them relentlessly until they reveal their deceit.

Precept Fifty-Six: 'Do Not Dream'.

Dreams are dangerous things. Strange ideas, not your own, can worm their way into your mind. But if you resist those ideas, sickness will wrack your body! Best not to dream at all, like me
