The amount of hype that came out of this game was enough to collapse into a black hole. And yet, Silksong manages to live up to every drop of it.

Highly recommended. Absolutely check out the original Hollow Knight before you play. There's a lot of nice parallels between the games, and some recurring lore elements that will make your brain explode

Edit after getting the "true" ending:

yeah you should play the first hollow knight
