i hope i can achieve 112% completion and the platinum trophy at some point but for now, i got my first ending today and wow! what an absolutely stunning and wonderful journey this game has been! although it can be extremely punishing at times (tbh i just suck at platformers lol), i enjoyed every single minute i spent with this game! the art style, music, gameplay and especially the world building are all top class! the only negative thing i can think of is that i had to do some extra digging and research in terms of the lore but it does not take away from the game at all. hollow knight has quickly become my new favorite game of all time and i appreciate the new skill sets it taught me, such as to be more patient/observant and memorize boss movesets instead of brute forcing my way through fights. hard to believe it was created by a small indie team because it stands on equal footing with triple-a titles! excited for silksong and to see what is in store for team cherry’s future! the knight is the cutest and best gaming protagonist btw! i love them so much!

edit: i really, really wanted to plat this game but i don’t know if i’ll be able to. i’m simply not good enough at it. i’ll keep trying but right now, it feels out of reach <\3
