Now Playing (Video Games)

So took a break from Diablo II and Kingdom Come. Played Frostpunk like it was my job LOL. Cleared the New Home and The Arks scenarios. The Refugees is next. I was doing fine until everyone started getting sick. I need to focus on health care on my next attempt. That and speed up coal research.

Also went back to Silksong. I did the Dark Souls thing and if one area seems impassible simply go another way. I was stuck in the little cave in which you have to escape an eruption after beating a few flying enemies. I was either struggling with the last few bugs or with the platforming on the way up. Found the double jump and problem solved. I opened up most of the map, found all the tube travel thingies, all the bellway stations, cleared a bunch of side quests and found some goodies. Some were kinda sad. In the original Hollow Knight there is a bug that is always singing and happy to mine away. Later in the game when you revisit she is consumed by the corruption. In Silksong there's a little bug you gamble with and has a pair of dice. If you revisit it you find it has died and you can take its dice.

I am now stuck in four separate battles. The Wailing Mother in the Slab, The fight to get the Conductor's song (got the other two), Some giant dude in Bilewater and the cook in Sinner's Road. I need to pick one and focus on that until I break through.

Kudos to you for having the fortitude. That game is freaking hard for me! I was talking to a good friend of mine the other day (the one who got me into OG Hollow Knight), but he rarely games anymore due to having young kids. I asked him how far he got into Silksong and he casually said “oh I beat it.” Like damn, I have to git gud!

He also recommended Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, so I’ve been playing through it (thankfully a far more merciful game than Silksong). Great platforming and the ability to adjust many facets of difficulty for a custom experience for wusses like me. I recommend it.
