Godhome made me hate Hollow Knight

[Singularity's Marauder]

I beat Markoth on Radiant...
I beat Radiant on Radiant...
I killed everyone on Radiant...
And I think I quit at the stupid ass ultimate run... With all things disabled.

And honestly. ♥♥♥♥ this game. Hollow Knight is great at environmental storytelling. Exploration. Music. Even acting. Atmosphere. And occassionally gameplay. But if you tune this to the maximum and force the player to like... Utilise ground dunk i-frames... Zzz...

The issue with Hollow Knight's combat is that enemies dont ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ react to being hit. It takes like ages for them to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ die. There is an obnoxious long death animation and also. My only motivation for finishing Godhome was "I hate myself". I skipped the boss fight in the carnaval DLC, cuz I knew it was gonna be ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. And then I fought the vampire king in Godhome. And I was like "oh, they put him here... Why?". Why does this crowd of golden people summon bosses? Why is Mantis King here? Everything that made these encounters interesting isnt here. It's just enemies with more obnoxious mechanics plucked out and put into a colloseum full of idiots. Why cant I take the blade and slaughter them?

This dlc felt like a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Zote... Isnt funny. ♥♥♥♥ off. Next time I see the annoying ♥♥♥♥. Im letting him have his ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ head bit off.

I have my ass here work to beat those guys, like it's the end of the universe... And combat 90% of the time is woops, enemy walked into me. They dont even have to attack me. Their whole body is a hitbox, cause whatever. You know there is this game... Called Hyper Light Drifter. And you know what's cool about that game? Touching an enemy doesnt damage you. They actually have to attack you to damage you. Wow, revolutionary concept, righy? Maybe you should figure it out...

Sounds like perfect time to take a pause.

No one is forcing you do do anything if you don't want to.
But on the other side, you'll only be defeated if you give up.

Someone has to make a choice.

Accept that these games extra challenges aren't fair and just lazy brick walls. Helps feed that gaming tenacity. Remember the middle finger you'll give to everyone that says you can't do it.

No reason to get all mad about it.

Some games have ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ challenges and it's ok to call it what it is and move on.

i can agree that godhome can make you annoyed but when u take a break and maybe watch some guides, when u get back and when u defeat it you wont forget that. thats what happen to me and i raged

[Grimm]

i raged for a bit difrent reason but it still counts

I understand that doing a challenge can piss someone off but blaming the game because it has a challenging mode is pretty silly.

>I have my ass here work to beat those guys, like it's the end of the universe... And combat 90% of the time is woops, enemy walked into me.

I'm sorry, I have a very hard time believing that someone who would complain about a VERY common thing like contact damage would also be able to handle a bunch of these fights on Radiant. Contact damage has been a part of side-scrollers since the beginning. But now it's suddenly some horrible bastion of bad design? Spare me.

>Accept that these games extra challenges aren't fair and just lazy brick walls.

Why can't people just accept that they are optional and not for everyone? This just looks like immature gamers getting angry that they can't easily beat all aspects of a game. Just accept that it's not for you and move on. Complaining about this just results in games being nerfed where even the optional stuff is easy.
