Silksong makes me want to cry sad tears of defeat.
It's so melancholy and difficult sometimes. Yeah, there's the whole 'get good' argument, but there's a lot of arguably unnecessary tedium involved that starts to feel like difficulty just for the sake of being difficult and nothing else. That's definitely been a bit of a detractor for me, as well as a lot of others it seems.
The clip I watched the character was going through some Lion King game esque jumping sequence and I immediately knew the game wasn't for me.
That is fair. I don't think people have been complaining about the platforming too much though, mostly the combat.
