Absolutely.

HK is one of the best games at least of the last generation.

HK is the gold standard every Metroidvania should strive for going forward, so I'm very much looking forward for what Team Cherry has in store.

Rabi Ribi would be the standard to follow

The Dark Souls gameplay influences drag Hollow Knight down way too much

What the one death mechanic? That Dark Souls influence? Literally one thing.

Anyways I'm very much looking forward to it.

Is it really that good? I've kinda looked into it. But the anime crap turns me off.

The gameplay has very little in common with Dark Souls beyond the drop your stuff when you die mechanic.

The presentation of the story/lore is where it shares the most similarities to Dark Souls actually.

Give it a chance and focus on the gameplay. It's a masterpiece of game design.

I found Hollow Knight too difficult, I just can't react and think quickly enough for a game like that. It's a shame because I love what I've seen of the art design.

I've also heard Rabi Ribi was pretty damn good, just never got it myself. I had an eye on Touhou Luna Nights as well, but, once again, never picked it up.

This. I find the original game to be incredibly overrated. It's charming and the artstyle/ascetic is nice. I like the atmosphere. I don't like the map system and I don't like the combat. Hollow Knight feels more like busy work to me than an actual fun game. Maybe I'll try it out again one day because there are things I really like about the game but there are also things I really don't like.

Rabi Rabi is really damn good, actually.

HK is still leagues better though. To be fair, they're pretty different takes on the genre.

Can't wait for Silksong.

Nothing aside from some kidnapping, attempted murder and their awful taste in decor. I don't even entirely hate them, I had some good times with them. Specifically, when I killed Hornet's mother. That was great.

I'm looking forward to it, yes. They could use this opportunity to iron out some of the issues I had with the first HK, which would make it pretty close to GOAT for me. Or, they could have let the praise go to their heads and double down on the things that bugged me. So we'll just have to see. Either way, HK was a good enough game for its sequel to be a day-one or shortly thereafter purchase.

When you kill the dreamer Herrah the Beast, Hornet can appear to mourn her mother and you can find Hornet's room in the Weaver Den

HK was a shocking entry into maybe my top ten games ever. Its world design, ambiance, lore, and addictive gameplay sucked me in and never let go until Id 100%d the game and beyond, even Nightmare King and the Path of Pain.

Did I mention I dont even traditionally like Metroidvanias?

So

Yes.
