"Play more, the game gets better after—" no. This game is overhyped by masochists and people who only stick to guides as they can't do anything on their own. First impressions should be the most important. The game is just bad from the start. The movement feels weird and unnatural, the fighting is awful, especially against flying enemies since the hitbox of the sword is extremely tiny. You don't get the most basics things, which make you utterly lost and helpless. You actually have to do genocide to unlock things, which is absolutely wild. The map is so out of your way to get and even then it barely helps at all, as it doesn't resemble how the world looks at all. I'd better be off with a rectangle. Every road is a dead end that needs unlocking. How? I dunno, you're not far enough into the story, you'll need backtracking. A bug that rolls into a ball and is impervious to damage, but shoots fireballs when you go far away enough. There's a path that clearly has a "it's about to break" vibe, but doesn't get broken in any way. There's a hole with two gates, but neither opens. The "mini-boss" has two attacks and he's extremely tanky, but when you exit the area and come back, he respawns? WHY? The boss can trap you in the corner and you can't do nothing about it, other than tank the damage and get to the other side or die. Even then, there's no indication if I'm repeating the same stage over and over again or if I'm doing progress. That dude went down 3 times and he kept fighting in the same way. Am I doing progress? Is he resetting because I didn't do enough damage when he was on the floor? I DON'T KNOW! The community has already bullied enough people who don't agree that this game is "10/10" or "the best game you ever play". I can tank the insults, because I don't care. Respect my opinion, because you know it's facts and you're just coping because I don't like the game that you like.

HORNETE GELMEDEN ÖNCE EĞLENCELİ
This is a great game. I enjoyed the boss fights, and most of the platforming. But the amount of runbacks in this game, with respawn benches so sparsely spread out, I spent (read: wasted) too much time just getting to where I wanted to go, instead of doing what I actually wanted to do. Shame that they seem to have just doubled down on this for Silksong instead of addressing it.
