Hollow Knight: Silksong Bringing the player to Hornet – an important auxiliary character that has appeared in Hollow Knight. Who is Hornet understanding, her role in Hallownest and the Kingdom of Pale King can enrich the experience of playing, but the most impressive thing that team Cherry can do with the story Hollow Knight: Silksong Tell: Skillfully build a separate, massive and detailed storyline so that it does not need to “rely on” the previous part too much.

Pharloom, the new land that Hornet arrived, appeared as a vivid and unique world. Each environment is both beautiful and symbolic, carrying extraordinary history that the player can only imagine, and from there, the comprehensive picture of the panorama with discrete debris is found in the journey of exploration.

From Bone Bottom, Moss Grotto is pristine, bright to Grand Gate, Whisling Vaults magnificent and mysterious of The Citadel, to the cruel Hunter's Marm and Blasted Steps, all areas of Hollow Knight: Silksong Having its own theme, private stories, and every corner of the world, there are heavy confidences and thoughts about a world that is gone.

However, what is really impressive Silksong Again comes from the way Pharloom residents are present in the world. During the journey from Moss Grotto pristine to the magnificent Citadel of Hornet, she will encounter many other bugs, from lovely, sincere as the blush pilgrimage, innocent Sherma, Du Tru flea, to Forge-Daughter, explorer and Shakra hunters and 'Lovely Pet' Bell Beast Hornet throughout Pharloom.

And the choice of Hornet will sometimes make their lives change in extremely clear ways that the writer will not reveal here, but the way the player is 'holding in' the fate of Solaire in Dark Souls 1always be careful in stepping into a new land without going back to “visit” the lovely bugs Hornet made friends before.

Not stopping there, the way the enemy is designed and scattered throughout the world also carries its own stories, from the Skarr warriors in Hunter's March with the armor, weapons and skillful fighting ability, we represent a harsh but traditional warrior society in Hunter's Marm, to mysterious machinery enemies appearing in Blasted Steps, The Citsads or even DEELS or even DEEPS, the citsads It shows how the technological development of the elite Pharloom advanced.

And these stories are most fully told through the bosses, which are not only the difficult “tests” that challenge the players' ability, but also play a climax of stories for that area. They are so impressive that the writer really has difficulty giving an example without affecting the experience of playing, so readers have to … roll themselves.

In the center of all is the Hornet, the 'princess' of the red shirt from the player's friend into the player in the first part. Unlike The Knight (or The Vessel) in the first part, Hornet is an extremely personality character with very unique dialogue and interactions, no longer acting as an inanimate story guide (literally!).

The hornet was stone, somewhat arrogant but very emotional and always watching the friends she met on her journey. Hornet's personality is led through interactions, meticulously written dialogue, vivid acting (like the way Hornet will … in the face of NPCs that annoys her, or pulls out the guitar to make her friends sing).

Hornet's journey is much more interesting because players will always look forward to how Hornet will comment and interact with new lands, friends and enemies.

The world, characters, plot … These factors are connected by a particularly vivid sound experience. The integration between two -dimensional and three -dimensional space, and the special details of the character and the world makes Pharloom and the residents of it more vivid and berry.

This is a play experience that makes the writer keep clicking the screen screen tired! No matter how “boiling water, fire burns”.

The characters are also very well -known and vivid, even though the language they speak … is very meaningless (just like the characters in The Sims)! The game world also spurs and emits extremely vivid sounds, and is also dotted by the music that adorns each environment, each different clash. It is the experience-listening experience that makes the exploration of the game world is also extremely attractive!

Butterfly, bee sting!

The gameplay of Silksong It is clear that Team Cherry's ambition: Taking the Metroidvania platform, which was very successful at the beginning and raised all the elements to turn it into a harsh and more diverse experience.

If staying Hollow Knightfighting pace and balancing movement between speed and calculation, then luxury Hollow Knight: Silksongeverything is faster, more intense, forcing the player to both skillfully survive and patiently explore.

Hornet possesses many Silk Skills to expand both attacks and moving, and different from the charm system of the previous part, these skills are directly associated with the process of opening the way, causing players to return to the old areas or to do the auxiliary duty to fully take advantage of the tool kit.

The Tools and Crests also marked a big step compared to the first part. If Charm has previously supplemented the fighting style, now each tool or badge has just created a tactical selection, and actively promotes the discovery.

The construction of a set of equipment directly affects how you enter a new area, dealing with enemies dealing serious damage or overcoming challenges. Equipments, upgrades and process items often force you to make “Sidequest” (sub -mission) or return to the old area with new skills, still keep “Metroidvania spirit” but much closer and more seamless.

The difficulty of the game is also harsh than Hollow Knight. Many enemies often dealt blood double damage to each hornet hit, while the boss almost default to the damage at that level, making each of our mistakes pay the price!

Going to the scene is no longer a break but becomes a challenge on par with combat, many areas containing traps and rugged terrain forces you to combine “DASH” (fast labor), climb walls and special skills to overcome. Regions like Bilewaters or Mount Fay are cleverly designed to press the player, increasing the pressure inherently familiar from the first to higher.

The boss design also reflects that philosophy, with particularly memorable bosses about the mechanism and content such as Cogwork Dancers or Lace. In the context that every attack takes two blood, the greater the pressure, forcing you to dodge accurately, take advantage of Silk Skills and Tools properly to be able to stand and find counterattack opportunities.

This is not a meaningless style, but a comprehensive test of the equipment, moving, the ability to learn rules and reflexes, thereby strengthening the position Silksong Not only as a new standard, but the peak of the metroidvania genre.
