Weekly "What are you playing" Thread || Week of July 9th

Hey all!

Figured we’d try something like this. Let me know what you all think, and if you have any feedback on what you would like a weekly thread like this to look like. Thanks

What are you all playing? Anything you got from the steam sale you’re enjoying?

  • Just started playing Hollow Knight again and I’m HOOKED. I love almost everything about the game so far from the music, the visuals, and the gameplay. Although it gets mighty frustrating when trying to platform through those fucking thorns or off the bouncy purple mushrooms but I take my break and then I’m back at it again :)

    • I picked it up again this week, too! The ambience is perfect, really on point for immersion.

      Not sure if those mushrooms you mention have been in my way, but at the moment I cannot beat those damn explosive jellyfish in a reliable manner. Breaks definitely help; after a while I'm filled with determination.

      • I hear ya on the determination part, playing last night I was hit with the realization of truly how big the in game world is and I want to know all about the L O R E. But I’m trying so hard to restrain myself from watching a YouTube synopsis like I usually would for something like Dark Souls.

        With those jellyfish, if you’re talking about the ones in Fog Canyon my tip is to kill the little ones and just avoid attacking the bigger ones altogether. The explosives the big guys have are so powerful and I don’t think I have been able to avoid said explosives except maybe a couple of times. But keep on chugging my fellow knight :)

    • It is a beautiful game, for sure.

    • I beat my head against Hollow Knight when it was released and set it aside after a while. I recently went back and somehow was able to get through it (I'm convinced they made it easier vs me getting better).

      Make sure to explore and find all the story and world building tidbits. It's definitely worth digging into, and I love some of the little side stories and character interactions as you go deeper into Hollownest.
