How in the hell did I miss this kickstarter?!? This has been such a f'ing amazing game! I'm near full game completion and just went and picked up one of the 4000 kickstarter CE's via ebay. I have had such a blast with this and can't wait for the new dlc!

I've been staying up till 2-4am the past few days playing. This is definitely one of those games that I just can't put down. If you haven't played yet, make it a priority!

This game absolutely makes it into my top 25!

No, was digital. Note the pre-order.

I'm pretty sure I've seen it.... Or maybe it was a plushie that had a code. I know I've seen a plushie at Best Buy awhile ago that was for Switch.

Yah, that's what I bought. Physical box for the plush that had a code.

They did just recently announce physical versions for the PS4, Switch and PC. Thankfully it's not fudging Limited Rape Games.

Fangamer is taking pre-orders for physical Hollow Knight copies in both standard and collector's editions on PC, PS4, and Switch.

Thank you though, there goes $107.

I got bored after 15 minutes, but then again, platformers like Mega Man have never really entertained me.

Why $107? I'm seeing $64-$69 or something...

Kommie

13-May-2019(#51)

Maybe a collector's and regular edition?

I put about 40 hours into it myself. Still, need to go beat the final boss but I was trying to get the void heart. I will probably get just the regular edition. I want the CE but I have put a lot of money into Hollow Knight merc already.

Hollow Knight merc? Short for merchandise or something cool that I missed?

I’m not sure what all I’ve got left besides the fights with Grimm, Traitor Lord, Hollow Knight, and the 3rd stage of the coliseum but I got frustrated a few weeks ago and stopped playing.

I need to pick it back up and get everything finished.

I think all I had left was Nightmare Grimm. Not sure it's worth the headache to go back now.

The coliseum was a damn blast, frustrating, but loved it.

Anyone play Owlboy? I've read good things...and there is a physical copy (and limited edition) at Best Buy. Seems to be fully stocked often...

Because I didn't have a big enough back log already ... gdamnit. This looks pretty cool.

Limited Edition is available for PS4, looks like Switch doesn't even have a listing.

I got it on eshop for 15 and am a few hours in but here's my impressions

Graphics are good
Music is good
Story/characters/world is interesting

I guess my biggest beef is that the controls don't feel fluid or responsive at ALL...and this is a platformer. Maybe it gets better? I dunno

I picked up Ori and Owlboy. Have most of tomorrow free for my bday and planning on dusting off the Xbox for the first time in a couple years to play Ori first!

MrBean

Just got 100% on Ori in two sittings. Fantastic game, loved the art style!

Onto Owl Boy soon!

Decided to replay this on ps5 with the ps+ collection. What a fantastic game all over again. Feels like I'm flying through this time as I am remembering quite a bit from two years ago.

Why is Silk Song not yet out?!

Kommie

26-Nov-2020(#66)

Probably cause of Covid. They never really gave any sort of release date, right?

MrBean

26-Nov-2020(#67)

I don't think they ever gave any type of date sadly.

I feel like I'm enjoying this more on PS5 with the dual shock over the Pro controller on Switch.

Absolutely one of my all time favorite games.

Kommie

26-Nov-2020(#68)

I first played it on PS4. I've thought about getting it on Switch. Silk Song I think is only slated for PC/Switch

I love this game as well, epic games gave it free and liked what I played but really got into it this month since it was on PS Plus.

Back to back White Palace and Grim Troupe, first shots. I really wish they would have released more difficult DLC.

Prior play through, I do remember giving up on Nightmare Grimme but pretty sure it'll be way easier this time.

MrBean

10-Dec-2020(#71)

Wow, third trial of Colleseum... First shot! I remember this taking me a few days. I think it's easier with the dual shock TBH.

The JoyCons on the Switch in handheld mode aren't very good for games like this. It's just not very good.

MrBean

I used the pro controller when I played on Switch.

Kommie

10-Dec-2020(#74)

Well that's good. Maybe it's just that you beat it before? Games always seem to be easier the second time.

Yah, more than likely. Which is a bit unfortunate. I'm almost completely done (everything) and less than 30 hours; whereas, original play was 50 hours!

Kommie

10-Dec-2020(#76)

If I ever re play it, it'll be on Switch since my first was on PS4.
