Anyone tried Hollow Knight: Silksong for the first time?

I never played Hollow Knights: Silksong, but a question, anyone has tried the game for the first time and when?

    This is a meta comment, but I'm a bit confused about how to engage with any of your posts. Language barrier maybe? I don't understand your questions, all of your replies have been to yourself, and your longest post is only 21 words.

    Just taking this thread as an example, what are you looking for? People to just tell you when they played it? Their opinions about it? Whether or not they recommend it? With or without spoilers?

    To directly answer the only question currently present: I bought it on launch day.

    Silk song was my first time playing hollow knight.

    I liked it, but I didn’t finish. It’s just so much work and Metroidvania games aren’t my style.

    It’s very well done, but I wish there were an easier mode to finish the game with.

      I did beat Hollow knight, but I can definitely see players jumping straight to Silksong struggling. The game ramps up much faster than Hollow knight, and having more options/resources to manage can make things potentially more convuluted to navigate.

        If that’s the intent then I did basically that. Found the early game too slow/boring and didn’t feel like going back. I’m in act 2 now and enjoying silk song much more.

    I'm a little past halfway through watching a playthrough on YouTube, if that counts. But the weekly what have you been playing threads have had posts about it since release.
