This one feels a lot riskier to me. Palworld works because so many people are fed up with Pokemon games having gotten progressively lazier for years. I don't think anyone's fed up with Hollow Knight, and Silksong is (theoretically) still coming at some point soon. If this doesn't play and feel every bit as good as Hollow Knight, it'll just be a bargain bin knockoff.
The video did show a few new mechanics (Cappy-style monster capture, multiplayer, spells) but agree: it's gotta be as smooth and atmospheric. I doubt the music will be as melancholy / good.
