Yeah. Similar sentiment here. For me, spending $20 is my special way of flipping the bird at Nintendo and every other greedy AAA studios for wanting to jack up the price of games.

I don’t really like games like this (I know Hollow Knight is a masterpiece if you do) but I’d be tempted to buy it for $20 just to support the studio

Same. Hollow Knight’s combat and platforming simply didn’t click. But, the atmosphere of that game is simply impeccable. That, to me, makes Hollow Knight an amazing video game, just one not for me.

I’m in the same boat. Hollow knight never clicked for me but I get what people like about it. Silksong looks like hollow knight with better combat though so that will make it more enjoyable for me…probably.

Basically my take. The lore and art take Hollow Knight over the top to Goat status, but it does not dethrone Blasphemous 2 for me… I’m not entirely sure anything can.

Blasphemous 2 never dethroned Hollow Knight.

I think you may have missed the “for me” in that users sentence. It’s their opinion that Blasphemous 2 is more enjoyable than Hollow Knight.
