    I hated Hollow Knight. I decided I wanna try Sekiro and I’m waiting for it to go on sale (who knows when). But this? Man I want to play this. It looks incredible and has amazing sound design.

      I hated Hollow Knight

      It’s one of my favorite games of all time :(

      Nine sols does look good though, and more action focused compared to HK’s exploration focus

        My reaction to it was weird. I was kind of digging it for the most part in the beginning thinking I’d get hooked like I did with Ori.

        But that never happened and somewhere mid game it just felt like it was dragging, the characters felt stale, and it seemed difficult for the sake of being difficult instead of clever. I struggle enjoying games that require perfectly timed button press combos. I even went back and tried it again like a month ago and had the same experience.

        That’s not a knock on the game, of course. It’s a huge fan fave for a reason but it’s just not my preference.
