I am playing the original Hollow Knight before streaming Silksong on twitch, and holy shit I have never felt this ASS at a platformer before. 90% of the time I'm falling off platforms by accident or somehow falling off and AVOIDING EVERY PLATFORM FOR NO REASON and falling all the way down. Usually into acid.
Lol... Wait until you play Silksong. Hollow Knight is about straight lines and timing, if you want to be Hornet you have to learn to dance in the air
You need positioning, timing, and angles. You have to dance into their guard and hit with precision, you can hit them while dodging their strike, you have to dance in between them and the hotbox of their attack
Sleeping and stepping away helps.
Forty five degree angles are the devil from what I've seen on twitch lmfao. No one is use to that yet.
I will be tomorrow... A night of sleep and I think I'll have it. It's starting to click
I did think about streaming it, probably would've been a good way to start. But on the other hand, I want to enjoy this game for what it is
