They are indeed very similar in a lot of things, although it is HK that has been inspired by the Souls concept. In fact I keep seeing a bunch of direct inspirations especially from Bloodborne.
Now that your love for gaming has been rekindled you should really get a Playstation. Even a PS4 will offer so much right now.
Nah, the reason I am able to play much more now is due to the Switch being handheld. Finding time to sit in front of the telebox will be an issue for me with having two kids and a wife
I was one of the rare morons that managed to skip this battle (unknowingly) and then when I eventually came back to it, it was way too easy because I was so powered up by then.
Remains one of the best fights of the game I think. It's the first time it feels like you're really in a dance and then the epic music coming in, one of the best tunes of the game imo.
tbf I've only tried it once so maybe I should give it a real shot.i did it on switch but no idea about PC...
I've started it on PC just tweaked some of the controls and it plays great, for some unknown reason the default controls use the arrows instead of wasd.
That's good progress. Are you generally exploring or using online hints?Been playing this on and off inbetween Apex legends, think i'm exploring the Deepnest currently.
I'm enjoying it not too difficult so far, i can imagine it being a nightmare for the more casual types, most deaths are from me just rushing trying to get back to a certain area.
Will crack on with it some more over the weekend
Exploring, only hints i use is if i can't find the map guy quickly in a new area, just doing the colosseum atm done 2 of the 3 trials then just opened up the abyss!
See how you get on with the Trial Of Fools. It's frustrating but fun.
I think the full standard compete is about 107%
If you've only got 53% then you've probably have a lot of the game left to explore. I'm assuming you only have the first ending at this point. And yea what @Dirty Schwein said, you've probably missed a lot of cool stuff. Not saying you need to 112% it or even 107% it but there's definitely some stuff worth doing still, at least to get the "true" ending. The lead up to that is some of the best stuff in the game imo. But maybe that will come once you get to exploring a couple of side areas (and revisit some of the areas you couldn't previously explore because of abilities)
Just the first ending is nowhere near getting the best out of this game. True ending at the very minimum and I'd do all optional areas and bosses.
I had double jump, dash through enemies and the crystal launch skill, the focus charm, the charm where you can see yourself on the map and the charm which collects the geo for you.
Haha time for some fun! Keep us posted
I did them later but you can do them early like most people did... Just more of a challenge I guess
Yes, absolutely, that's how I did them initially. They are pretty challenging early on but learning to master that fight feels awesome. The sense of accomplishment will be diminished later on. Afterwards, you'll be able to claim an extra charm in a room that was previously locked by one of the mantis warriors.
Nice one!
Damn you
Missed this as I was away for a while, well done! Did you keep at it? P5 is waiting for you.
You and your fecking agendaMissed this as I was away for a while, well done! Did you keep at it? P5 is waiting for you.
I started it up again a few days before I beat her after not trying for a few months. Just fighting her for half an hour here or there. My best run is still that time I beat her 4 out of 5 times. It really comes down to luck too, not having orbs spawn under your @ss, her snipes being off on the climb, not having 2 attacks intersect where you can't avoid the other.Missed this as I was away for a while, well done!

I was about to give you abuse but you saved it there.
That's the reason for the delay I think. They started making this before Hollow Knight became so popular and highly rated, and after that they are just worried they won't be able to either match the quality of HK or not provide enough fresh mechanics and elements. To be fair they've set very high standards and it would be difficult to match it.
Yep, all this hype is just piling the pressure on for them. And you basically can't do it right. A sequel isn't going to hit those same heights purely because you lose a bit of the wonder and magic of the first game. HK also came out two years after the intended release iirc. It came out with tons of bugs too and a bunch of dlc was added later. I assume they wanna deliver a more finished game with silksong hence it taking a bit longer. They probably shouldn't have done the showcase in 2019 though.
