It's hard to believe it has already been a week since Hollow Knight Silksong launched on multiple systems, crashing storefronts in the process and breaking records across the globe. But now I think it's time for reflection on the game.
In a week of playing, I sadly haven't gotten as far as I'd like. I won't go into spoilers for anyone holding off for the game. Still, if I say I got the Reaper Crest and then got hunkered down with work, I think a vast majority of players will know what point I am at and the boss that I need to find the time to muscle memory my way through when I return.
But my slow progress got me thinking. Where is everyone else at with the game so far, considering its difficulty? Have you beaten the game? 100% completed it? Maybe you're taking on the permadeath mode like some kind of masochist? I'm curious to know where everyone is at, but please try to keep story spoilers to a minimum here, where possible, for those who are still looking to pick up and play sometime in the future.
I myself will probably buy the game on Switch 2 once a physical version is available and restart my progress there, as it'll be easier for me to play on the go than to continue playing on PC. I feel like I could speedrun back to my current point without needing to buy maps, and use the knowledge of what Simple Keys are for to get anything I might have missed beforehand as well.
But enough talk, let me know in the comments where you are at and why. Are you struggling to take down a boss? Are you not able to make it to Act 3? Are you taking your time? Let's talk shop and see where your Hornet is current at on their adventure!
