yep 8gb is not going to cut it for these heavy games from here on and not when most of the gaming devs keep using UE which sucks and RT gimmick being pushed into games more and more
i don't like these fake frame gens or upscaling but if it can be improved i will be willing to use it to expand my new cards life down the road with it

I actually like the dlss stuff

But I agree with the idea that optimisation and lean development has taken a backseat apparently

That's subjective really, the game is pretty unforgiving and if you're not particularly good at platformers this game is down right openly disrespectful of your time.

It is a well done game, but I wouldn't say this is a game for everyone to enjoy by any stretch. I love it so far, despite a few companies, but yeah.

I didn't say that everyone would like it, I was just responding to the guy who said it sounds like shit. It is objectively not shit, by any marker of how a game should be made.

im not really inspired to play hollow knight at all based upon silksong's response. i own HK just never got around to playing it.

You're witnessing terminally online people expressing mild discomfort because something they imagined wasn't exactly the thing they'd been obsessing about with their other terminally online friends about over the last 6 years.

In the real world, Silksong is an incredible game that is very fun and costs $20.

Topicshould i play hollow knight first before silksong?
pinky0926
09/09/25 7:55:25 AM

There's very little "development" in Silksong over hollow knight, and I don't mean that in a bad way. If you played one game after the other and no one told you which came first, you'd have a hard time guessing which was the sequel.

Silksong is harder and more complex though, so I think hollow knight is where you should start. Also it's just an excellent game, there's no point in skipping over it.

I understand this question when it's like "should i start at witcher 3 or do I need to play all of them", because on the one hand the lore is so tied in together and on the other hand the older witcher games are very dated at this point.

But hollow knight/silksong? These games could have been developed side by side, you can't really tell that one is newer.

I seem to remember witcher 3 tried a thing where you chose how the story started at the beginning of the game, based on the choices you made in witcher 2.

I dont know if that worked or not, for me it was just super confusing because I hadn't played those games. Theres something to be said for them just picking a narrative and going with it.

I even thought, "if we had social media back den, i think dat never would have happened " but i think it would have made things worse

Germany had a population of around 80 million people when the nazis rose to power. I don't believe for a second that they all just woke up one morning and had a bloodlust for putting jewish people in gas chambers. I do think they were easily manipulated by the people who did have that bloodlust, though.
