Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks
PonyOfWar@pawb.social 3 weeks agoThat’s fair, but I also don’t see a problem in voicing criticism about aspects of the game I don’t like. Especially if I do like the game as a whole. People should not see that as an attack on their personal enjoyment of the game.

Sure, and as a consumer of a product, you are within your rights to do so. But I think that a lot of times there’s an underlying thread of entitlement that comes with a lot of the criticisms. The tone suggests more ,“how dare you make something I can’t play” and less “I’m not suited for this challenge”. There’s surprisingly little in the way of complaints about the game design that read as things that fit the theme and game vision. There are a few, but most aren’t.
And full disclosure I’m speaking from the standpoint of someone who while interested in a lot of the “git gud” genre games, can cut it 90% of the time. It took me realizing that I just wasn’t who those games were for before I was able to look at some of my options and realize.they were just me and my sour grapes.
