Hornet, the protagonist in Silksong, is depicted as being quicker and more adept than the character from Hollow Knight. Consequently, enemies in the game have been made more complex and cunning to match the players' enhanced abilities.
In the world of video games, the release of a new game from Team Cherry, the creators of Hollow Knight, has been causing quite a stir. The game in question is Silksong, a metroidvania title that offers players a higher level of freedom within its intricate world.
Before the game's release, Team Cherry's Ari Gibson and William Pellen sat down for an interview with Justin Wagner from PC Gamer. During this conversation, they discussed the game's design, particularly its challenging nature. Gibson and Pellen stated that while Silksong is more complex than its predecessor Hollow Knight, it's not necessarily harder. They have not introduced an easy mode, acknowledging that some players may find the difficulty demanding.
This intentional challenge is evident in the game's tough boss runs and challenging mechanics, which have elicited mixed reactions from players. Some find the difficulty frustrating, while others relish the classic sense of challenge it presents. According to Gibson, players have the tools they need to succeed, and moments of steep difficulty can lead to discovering new paths or practicing alternative solutions.
Pellen compared the basic ant warrior's move-set to that of the original Hornet boss, suggesting that other enemies in the game have been designed to match Hornet's level of difficulty. This, along with the game's complexity, makes Silksong a challenging journey for even experienced metroidvania players.
Silksong was reviewed by PC Gamer's Tyler Colp and received a score of 90. There are also various guides available on PC Gamer's website to help players navigate the game, such as a Silksong flea locations guide, a guide for beating Moorwing, and a guide for using the simple key.
Despite the varied player reactions to the game's difficulty, Team Cherry has shown no signs of rushing to make the game easier. The second Silksong patch suggests that they are committed to preserving the game's intended challenge.
Wagner, who has a history of enjoying games with ambition and scruples, has also expressed an interest in Silksong. Along with his fascination with retro shooters, CRPGs, and '90s esoterica, he seems to appreciate the game's complexity and the developers' dedication to their vision.
In conclusion, Silksong is a challenging metroidvania game that offers players a unique and complex journey. Whether you're a seasoned metroidvania player or new to the genre, Silksong is sure to provide an engaging and rewarding experience. So, grab your controller, take a deep breath, and dive into the world of Silksong.
