Finally got around beating
Hollow Knight. I started a playthrough some time ago...but ragequit like a ***....because I really despise the game mechanic of having to reacquire your drops after death.
Anyways, take two force myself a little bit to get it out Backlog(tm). I guess its not that bad of a mechanic, but I still don't like it. Made me macro saving up money back and forth all the time. I also didn't like semidark rooms. I hate when devs do that, its a video game you're supposed to react to stuff that you see on your screen!
Pretty much rest of the game was to my liking. Movement felt really good and only got better with some fun movement items, graphics/presentation was also strong. Boss fight we're mostly fun, I didn't fight all of them, only one felt bs. Still, couldn't really get into the game and just straight up looked up playthrough tips when I felt the need.
