Why is this game so underrated? It's a literal 10/10 in my book. GOTY, and perhaps even game of the decade.

Hollow knight thread!
>>
Opinion soured on it after some prick was shilling it nonstop during the Steam sale. Good game though.
>>
not sure
this is one of few games i bothered shilling to my friends but it seems very underrated yeah

one of the best metroidvanias period
>>
It seems underrated to people who didn't experience 16 or 32 bit gaming. It doesn't stack up favorably against similar games from 20 years ago and the art and design is bad
>>
>underrated
>highly praised by most who actually play it
>sold tons
>gets front page of first day of Steam sale
>gets into SGDQ despite only being a few months old
It's a good game, but you're overrating an already overrated game.
>>
>>385526302
But super metroid is boring, unlike Hollow Knight
>>
It's definitely way better than I expected.

It's still janky in some areas, but the overall package really is fantastic.

I kinda wonder what DLC would really add to the game, though. It's pretty finished as it is.
>>
>Underrated

Nah, but it's pretty good. Biggest problems are the performance issues, especially in the Colosseum
>>
>>385526367
Hollow Knight is stretched out too long. Kinda just wanted it to be over in 15 hours less than it took. Game has awful pacing compared to shorter Metroidvanias, but it's still good.
>>
>>385526534
>wanting the game to be like 15 hrs long instead of 30 hrs long
what the fuck
>>
>>385526632
The problem is that it's nearly three times longer than other games in the genre, but has about the same number of abilities you acquire.

Dark souls death mechanics have no business being a part of it and they greatly detract from the new player experience especially. I've hated those mechanics in every game they've ever appeared in, except for some reason in Shovel Knight where they're great.

I don't like corpse runs either. It didn't ruin HK for me, but would have greatly preferred them without. The reason you don't mind them in SK is because it's linear. Corpse runs suck in non-linear games because sometimes you want to fuck off and go in a different direction than where you died, but this on guides you right back to where you died. I honestly think SK could have done without it too, it's just an overall bad mechanic in my opinion.

Well, at some point it doesn't really matter because you can get enough money anyway or can sell some trinkets for way more than you need.
>>
>>385527172
I liked it in Shovel Knight because you aren't weakened for your second run (in HK it takes away max Soul), the collection is instantaneous, and it tied in really well to the checkpoint-breaking mechanics.

I think a better way would have been to cap the total treasure you lose at the amount gathered in the level, though (if you start with 1k treasure, then you never lose treasure below that).

Yeah, it doesn't matter eventually, though you also can't fill your soul meter up all the way unless you retrieve your soul, until you die again and retrieve it. Just kinda sucks at first. Certainly doesn't break the game for me either, just not a 10/10 perfect game for a lot of reasons.
>>
>>385527404
You can't shill this game anymore, OP.

The OP is the most generic shill material it could possibly be.
>>
>>385527292
The problem is "at some point". Early on, losing 1/3rd of your max Soul is a pretty steep penalty, and you have no source of money outside of what you carry on your person (if you haven't accessed the relic buyer yet) so it really affects you negatively to die once, and at the point of the game where death is most likely because of low max HP, very limited movement mechanics, and general unfamiliarity with the game's combat.
>>
>>385527432
If the soul meter is the problem, you know you can just get yourself killed near a bench.
>>
>>385527563
You're right. It can be harsh for new players, but it encourages them to improve. If they have to get their stuff back, they'll play more cautious and eventually get better. Repetition is key.

>>
Went in expecting nothing, came out pleasantly surprised. Not exceptional but not bad, would recommend. Sucks that you take damage when you touch the enemy's static foot with your pinkytoe tough. Also the health mechanic is a bit weird since apart from The Radiance and a few exceptions everything does the same amount of damage. Because of this you can abuse just tanking hits, going ham on the attacks and pray the boss dies before you do.
>>

Clearly you weren't here when it was first released. Threads up 24/7 all with the same "why haven't you played the goty yet?" OP.

most of the zones look diferent each other. Crystal Peaks uses a lot of purple variations, The Hive uses orange ones, Greenpath uses green ones, Deepnest uses a lot of the gray spectrum. Is true that the game feels that way, but it's because the world is mostly underground, so dark colors were used to make emphasis on that. Also, it's realy cohesive

>freeze frame every time you get hit makes combat annoying
Fair point

It is fine if you never play it but it is nothing like Dark Souls. Hell people fucking compare Zelda BotW to Dark Souls simply because you can die in one hit. When people say "X is like Dark Souls" they generally mean it isn't casual to the point of being unable to die.

Hollow Knight in that sense is like Dark Souls I guess, you start out being able to take 5 hits with very few enemy attacks being able to count as two but surprisingly the game is well balanced around this idea. Where dark souls may give you 100+ HP but have enemies being able to kill you in three hits anyway Hollow Knight just trim out the fat and tell you how it is from the get go. Also unlike Dark Souls where you gotta learn the timing for everything or break the game with magic Hollow Knight is more comparable to Megaman X but with higher risk/reward.

Beside the death system with the ability to reclaim your money I honestly don't get any kind of Dark Souls vibe from Hollow Knight. The game remind me of Castlevaina SotN when exploring due to how fucking easy it is but then have Bosses that remind me of Megaman X that actually can be challenging if you try to rush them. I highly recommend giving the game some research or even pirate it if you must play it yourself first. It isn't a meme game at all. I can guarantee on your first blind play through you will have over 24 hours on your save file and still most likely haven't explore the full map at that point. It is stupidly good and it is just a shame you shooting yourself in the foot just because 4chan rotted your brain with some stupid idea that it is a meme game just because of how it looks.

I can see the point that it's all underground, and Greenpath looked pretty neat. But they really should've used a couple more colors per area. I liked Greenpath because it had greens as well as some blues and purples. Making entire areas dark blue + grey was a mistake.
Maybe I'm just not the target audience, but the simplistic combat didn't feel all that engaging to me.

Guess I'll be downloading Shaman King while waiting for the Hollow Knight DLC. I'm very interested of how it will play out, I heard the anime use tropes in weird ways but I never took the time to watch it myself.

I dunno, maybe Ori and the Blind Forest made me more resistant against the use and abuse of black in Metroidvanias. So, I didn't mind the artstyle or the "underground" feel. Although most of my HK screenshots are from Greenpath, I agree that it's the best looking zone of the game

Also, keep in mind that Metroidvania threads are scarce. AM2R had one week full of daily threads before going to shit and disappear. That's why it's hard to show criticism in these threads

You already kill so many other infected bugs, why does one more matter? But to answer your question there isn't any kind of cure. For some odd reason only the shop keeper and the cutie pillbug chick could be talk to to wake them up. Anyone who is infected to the point of being aggressive are already too gone.

>That's literally wall jumping though.
Not the same way you can do it in Super Metroid >>385531990 or Zero Fusion though, Fusion pushes you away from the wall where you can't do it in rapid succession like SM or ZM.

How do I get out of the first area?

I've killed multiple armored knights that smash and shockwave. Got the soul fire ball. When I try to go to the right, I get into dead ends.

I have 38 hours in it and still think that Cave Story, Aria of Sorrow and An Untitled Story are a much better games.
>>
>>385525785
It looks like a good game upon inspection, but on first impression it looks like a typical indie title.

A lot of indie platformer/metroidvania type games get overlooked due to an over abundance of mediocre titles.

It's a shame.
>>
>>385534303
The original had a neat but obtuse system where you could play video games to turn on certain powers, instead of gate of time you had a maze of gallius stage instead, you could only save outside the ruins so you had to warp out whenever you wanted to save and all the bosses weren't nearly as good. Also no Hell or Mulbruk
>>
>>385537448
>38 hours
How fucking long is this game? The thing I like about Super Metroid and Aria of Sorrow is I can beat them in under three hours.
>>
>>385538284
30-40 on average for the first playthrough. Lots of backtracking, have to plan your exploration. There are achievements for a few hour long speedruns, though.

>>
>>385538586
fuck of with your blatant shill baiting

memes aside, this has the same length as your average metroidvania
>>
>>385538284
any% speedrun for Hollow Knight is like 40 minutes
100% is like 3.5 hours
>>
>>385538679
First play through of Super Metroid and AoS took me six (6) hours and I jumped right back in to replay them. 30-40 hours for a game like this is ridiculous, one reason why both of those games are so good is that they never overstay their welcome and never bog you down with backtracking.
>>
>>385530972
that taste is straight up maximum pretentious

the #1 game of all time is super mario bros 3, this isn't relaly disputable, btw

no, sorry, you don't get input if you haven't played games since 8 bit era

>>385538284
You could cut like half of it if it didn't have fast travel stations and checkpoints put in bumfuck Egypt.

yeah but hollow knight is not a 30 hour game unless you spend a lot of time on something

It's pretty boring for a Metroidvania

Everything is flat and dull from the "muh gorgeous visuals" to the literal 3 key piano ost. It's also easy as piss.

Name one (1) Metroidvania that this doesn't apply to, Fusion doesn't count.

How is it underrated? Literally everyone liked the game here when it came out.

Anyway, when is new content coming out?

It's good, but kinda falls off in the back half with some wasted potential with getting the true ending and Radiance's double damage gimmick being fuckin' stupid.
