    Hollow Knight.

    The first few hours on felt dull. Lots of reviews were praising it and I just didn’t get why. Dirtmouth and the Forgotten Crossroads weren’t really exhilarating, so I stopped after ~5h.

    A couple months later I created a new game slot. My POV shifted by following Cornifer’s passion for exploring for exploring’s sake, instead of grinding the Geo economy. The soundtrack really enhances the experience and environment of each section. I’m now ~120h in and still unsure if I’m halfway there!

      That was pretty much my experience with it. It rocked me so hard that I finally went back to the OG aka Super Metroid, and give that an honest shake. And man, I had an amazing time.
