This actually launches on all consoles and PC except the Playstation ones? Wtf! I thought Nintendo had some marketing agreement and it was exclusive to Switch and PC but now it’s coming to everything except the only system I own? Wth!
Yeah, hopefully it won’t take them too long to get PS version underway. I could probably use my computer but I prefer playing stuff like this on my TV.Their team is extremely small, hence originally being exclusive to Switch. Odds are MS did what they do in cases like this and send a team out to help get the game on their platform, combined with a Game Pass bag (which is a massive get for the devs and Game Pass so win/win).
Microsoft clearly moneyhatted the game.This actually launches on all consoles and PC except the Playstation ones? Wtf! I thought Nintendo had some marketing agreement and it was exclusive to Switch and PC but now it’s coming to everything except the only system I own? Wth!
I’m not sure, since it was announced on Switch first. I just think PS ended up with the short stick. Hopefully it will launch on PS not that long after.Microsoft clearly moneyhatted the game.
It was originally announced only for Switch, maybe Nintendo moneyhatted them to do so. Maybe MS moneyhatted them to don't announce the PS version until later. Or who knows, maybe they also got moneyhatted release the PS version later, some months after the other versions, as happened with some other indies.This actually launches on all consoles and PC except the Playstation ones?

Playstation better moneyhat that shit as well so that we all can play this at launch and live happily ever after.It was originally announced only for Switch, maybe Nintendo moneyhatted them to do so.

that’s my guess too. They moneyhatted to keep the game off of PlayStation for a few months. The good thing about this is that, when it launches on PS, it’ll have all the patches and DLC available one release.It was originally announced only for Switch, maybe Nintendo moneyhatted them to do so.

If Hollow Knight is as good as these rabid posters in Nintendo Direct threads claimed then Sony better be worried about delaying Ragnarok to '23 also.everything is 2023.
PlayStation, like Nintendo or MS moneyhatted a ton of indies. Maybe PS was late or offered less money than MS or Nintendo for this one. But who knows, let's wait and see.Playstation better moneyhat that shit as well so that we all can play this at launch and live happily ever after.
It gets pretty difficult, especially later in the game. I haven’t beaten the last DLC boss and I don’t think I ever will.Is hollow knight considered to be a difficult game? I kind of want to give the first one a try but not if it's going to Elden Ring me.

I think that term is not used for a game that is already far in development?

The first game was that good?Day 1 and will be Indie GOTY
The platforming in the secret areas and the boss rush mode is really really really hardIs hollow knight considered to be a difficult game? I kind of want to give the first one a try but not if it's going to Elden Ring me.
Paying for not being on a platform is what moneyhat is.There's no point arguing with him. He doesn't understand the term "moneyhat" and is just throwing a tantrum because a potential GOTY candidate hasn't been announced for his preferred plastic box despite it being announced 3 years ago as a Switch exclusive.
Yes, it’s a difficult game. If you want to play it and complete it, to be safe buy it on PC and at least you can use a difficultly easing mod if you find it too hard/frustrating.Is hollow knight considered to be a difficult game?

Ah, yes I forgot about the platforming, it can be very brutal. White Palace was crazy.The platforming in the secret areas and the boss rush mode is really really really hard

Edit: With that said it’s mostly the bosses that are difficult, and you almost always have a save point pretty close.
It's pretty tough, but I was able to beat the base game. Some of the later bosses and platforming sections can get pretty brutal. Getting the nail upgrades and good charms are the key.

Yikes, I guess I can do like Ori and the Will of the Wisps and just go as far as my skills can take me and bail.It's reasonably more difficult than Elden Ring, as you can't grind your way out of a hard boss. There's also basically no overpowered options to melt bosses.
Absolutely misleading title. June 2023 could be the release date, as it also could be the 11 months before that. This is what they're referring to
Is the original really that good?
I saw a lot of "ugh another sidescrolling action game" comments with other titles but people going apeshit over this, but when I watched the trailer nothing really stands out compared to other titles I've seen.

What platform are you on?Yikes, I guess I can do like Ori and the Will of the Wisps and just go as far as my skills can take me and bail.
I got em all. So possible at least one of them had Hollow Knight as a freebee and its sitting in one of my libraries somewhere.What platform are you on?

Nice. It is on Xbox and PC game pass if you have either of those, and if not, perhaps there’s a $1 first month sub promo you can use (just cancel auto renew). I bought it on switch using another region I believe for about $6. I made it I think 12 or 15 hours until I hit a wall (no spoiler but two of a particular boss at once). I keep meaning to buy again on PC and use a mod just to get past some difficult situations.I got em all.
