It is a great game. My main problems are just with the genre as a whole, like going to sinner's road before bellhart and it being egregiously hard with no weapon upgrades. On replays I have next to no problems with this game, but when you have no idea where everything is, it can definitely feel bullshit.
If I had to say I had any problems with it, Veridania is TOO hidden, and the slab sequence should never have been missable. What an extremely stupid decision. If you get to a certain point without losing to a specific enemy that never respawns, you can literally never get to the top part of the slab plus you miss out on a fantastic sequence. It even strips you of your upgrades and weapon so there's no reason at all it should be missable, it works perfectly for rendering you back to nothing no matter what you have or when.
Oh, and maybe a bit too much is secret. The flame area above greymoor, and the pink electric area in particular are nearly unfindable.
And I'd have maybe liked if you kill the big void blob guys in a room, the enemies in that room can't turn voided. That'd have felt fun clearing it out.
But it's undeniably an excellent game. I've no issue with the double damage, just use your tools or play hollow knight first. If you've played the first game you should be very capable of withstanding silksong.
