The format of these posts is simple: let’s discuss a specific game or series!
Let’s discuss Hollow Knight. What aspects do you like about it? What doesn’t work for you? Feel free to share any thoughts that come up, or react to other peoples comments. Let’s get the conversation going!
If you have any recommendations for games or series for the next post(s), please feel free to DM me or add it in a comment here (no guarantees of course).

I finally got this game through a steam key trade on barter, traded for a game I didn’t need from a Fanatical bundle. It’s now sitting in my library until I have the time to focus on it, as one of my best friends recommended it to me as one of his favorite games ever. So I want to give it the time and focus it deserves, hopefully it will click for me too!
my rec: try to power through until you get the Mothwing Cloak and Mantis Claw, which you get within the first 5 hours or so. If you don’t like the game by then, it isn’t going to click, but I think a lot of people give up on Hollow Knight too early.
I would also add that you can down slash at the beginning. It is very useful and I didn’t start using it till I saw someone online playing way better than me.
Pogo off enemies or spikes. It’s great. There’s a grub worm that I waited till the very end to get because I didn’t know I could pogo on the spikes.
All the bosses are pattern recognition, so if you end up bashing your head into a wall then maybe try to take a break and learn some dishes for the attacks.
