I'm sure you already know, but it's out — Hollow Knight: Silksong, a metroidvania about gross bugs, is out on all major platforms (I guess Playstation is coming…) (self.metroidvanias)

Needs no introduction in this sub. I'm getting this out just before hitting play.

Discover a vast, haunted kingdom in Hollow Knight: Silksong! Explore, fight and survive as you ascend to the peak of a land ruled by silk and song.

No reviews are out yet, but I really doubt you need one for this.

The difficulty of Hollow Knight is definitely part of what has made me stay away from it. Also some of those aforementioned Soulslike influences like annoying corpse runs and excessive runbacks.

Plus I suck at platforming.

i stuck to it for thirty hours i think, but the game just starts to slow down as the combat gets harder and by then i was no longer having fun.

Yeah it's a shame because I can tell it has a lot of good qualities, the art is gorgeous and the lore seems interesting, soundtrack is good too. I just know I would not have any fun with it.
