My hollow knight save is corrupted. Tried renaming the files and such but no luck. I was over 10 hours in.

Should I stop here?

So you beat about 5% of the game
Just restart

Play again. Smurfing is fun. You'll get to where you were in 2 hours now. Be happy that your save got corrupted.

>corrupted
How did that happen?
Also the workings of the game are pretty well known at the moment. They are probably save editors that could fix it.

It's a game you'll want to play multiple times anyway so just restart. You'll get to your 10 hour progress point in like 3 hours tops anyways.

I bought it on sale, am I going to like the game if I've never enjoyed a Metroid of Castlevania game in my life?

most likely yes
its the peak of the genre for many different departments, but /v/ is contrarian central so they dont like it. But on their side of the argument, its also "baby's first metroidvania", so all things considered youre even more likely to enjoy it
(/v/ actually used to unanimously love it before it got popular, like seriously back when barely anyone knew of it there were recurring threads with people loving it)

If you like the world design/nonlinearity of the first half of DS1, this game is very similar once youre past the early game and reach the point where it dramatically opens up. But its much vaster and it lasts all the way until the end of the game

Liking those games is detrimental to your enjoyment of Hollow Knight

>10 hours

That's nothing, the game is huge. If you actually learned how to play during that period, you will be at the same place in 2-3 hours.
Also you will explore more now that you kinda know the maps.

Probably not since it's a unabashed metroid-vania, and pretty hard and unforgiving on top of that.

Idk how to finish this game. I've done most the areas but apparently there's some more stuff somewhere if you want to get the real ending

It is the quintessential Deck game IMO. It's almost like the art style was designed to showcase the OLED screen.

replay from beginning, now you slightly know what to do
