Finally got around to playing Hollow Knight

I'd guess I'm a little under halfway through (I think? Just got to City of Tears) and I already have a feeling this is going to land solidly in my top 5 games ever. Combat/movement is incredible and the art design/music/overall tone is god tier.
Kinda kicking myself for dragging my feet on this. What an incredible experience so far.

If you are enjoying the game and just got to city of tears you're in for a treat, because without doing some kind of serious sequence breaking type stuff, you're nowhere close to what would be considered the halfway point of the game.
My first playthrough before I started a new one was like 60 hours and I didn't even finish all content in the game during that playthrough. Subsequent playthroughs are obviously much faster.

I felt that way when I first played Hollow Knight a couple of months ago. I finished it and started Prince of Persia Lost Crown and that now that one has easily surpassed Hollow Knight for me. I can appreciate the work put in by a small indie, but Ubisoft absolutely nailed the genre

Silksong prequel. If you love HK so far, you're going to love Hornet's game.

Silksong is an excellent sequel.
Team Cherry crushed both entries.

I need to get back into HK. I got about 1/2 to 2/3 through (you're not there yet) and just... stopped. I didn't hit a difficulty wall; the map just opened up in a way that wasn't compelling for whatever reason and I stopped.

I don't even remember how far I got, but I remember encountering something similar. I'm just now closing out Act I on Silksong and I'm sure I'll go back to HK once I'm done.

I hit this point too except I continued and ended up getting the plat. Silksong was far better about this and I didn't reach a similar point. Having a speaking protagonist and more cinematic, narrative-driven approach helped a lot
