I played about an hour or two of Silksong on Gamepass today. I'm probably going to leave it there for now. I was never a big fan of Hollow Knight which I put a decent chunk of time into, and this does feel like one of those "more of the same" kind of sequels rather than doing anything outside the box, which isn't a bad thing by any means, but it is giving the vibe that if I didn't like the first game, there won't be anything here to change my mind. I'll keep an eye out on reviews in case I'm wrong and critics point out that it becomes radically different after a certain point, but until that time, it's one I'm skipping.
FWIW, I don't have anything against Hollow Knight specifically, it's just the genre. Metroidvania's have always been a genre that I've struggled to get into barring 1 or 2 rare exceptions.
