- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 2 weeks ago:
yea agreed. in general though our attitudes with gaming have changed due to how many titles are available (over abundance) and the history of gaming, etc. we’ve become spoiled in ways. there needs to be a ‘penalty’ of sorts to encourage trial and error growth. get some true dopamine overcoming a trial.
there’s a place for all types of games and difficulties though. let the artists create their vision.

they’re a much smaller team than most studios, particularly that big one that put out a far worse, far more expensive, far less engaging, simpleton, partially complete game that’s now sold to sheep in episodes. poe 2 is already grander in almost every way than its direct competitor
