First steps into the fungal realm and understanding Hollow Knight at last

It's been a long time and I'm back in this game So you can see that I've been excited like few times before

Exploring the depth of this Abyss is part of my therapy after returning from work and every time I dive I feel more eager to move forward and see what danger is behind each room

In addition to the fact that I finally know how the map works and I've also been able to buy some indicators that work pretty well for me to locate myself and I'm not going to go too far here without knowing where I am, something that has happened to me repeatedly throughout this adventure in the darkness of Hollow Knight

The platforms are still a challenge in this game but with the recent one's honestly they're easy.

I must admit that the movement is much more fun and also much more ingenious especially when there are enemies in front of me and I need to move quickly to escape or to take the advantage and attack them

This time I had to go beyond the green path and go into the depth of what seems to be a mushroom kingdom that I'm not very sure about so I can get out But if there is something certain and this this mushroom kingdom is connected to other kingdoms that I have already visited and in a certain way I begin to locate myself much better on the map

And this game does not stop adding mechanics to the mix and now they introduce them to some springs that we can use to elevate ourselves Beyond our normal jumps and reach parts of the map that may seem very high apart we also have enemies that seem novel to me but to be honest they did not give me a greater challenge deciphering them and finishing them off

Although there are enemies that seem very competent to me later on I think that this part of the mushroom kingdom is a candidate for one of the easiest kingdoms that I have traveled through and the only thing I was missing was the map to start filling it out and The truth is that I got it very quickly

In addition I also got several stamps that I bought in the store and that give me some markers to understand a little better where I am, I was also learning to use the amulets that seem to be an important part of the game and the gameplay both to improve the attack or defense capabilities as well as adding other aids to the gameplay

In this session I only dedicated myself to exploring without much intention of advancing in the plot or in the main objective

if there is one because this game again does not explain much and leaves everything to the intuition and curiosity of the player who is going to be exploring new areas and encountering everything new in them

Now it depends on us and then we use our heads and figure out what to do in each area to advance, something that the truth is that in this last area of ​​the mushrooms has not been very difficult for me since there are only a few paths available and with the map it is more than enough to go around without getting lost

---

But there is also something in this game that surprises me and it is the number of areas in which we can be without advancing because we do not have some skill or because we still do not understand how the mechanisms of that specific room work

After advancing a little more in the fungal kingdom I found another biome that was very similar to the forgotten crossroads that we found at the beginning of the game but apparently we do not have to be in this area Even though I didn't find a way to advance in any direction

What I did find were routes to other biomes that we've already visited or to dead ends that I think will be important in the future, little by little I'm learning what it takes to advance in each of these biomes

I didn't expect so much progress in this session but I think that having the map so early and having some markers to locate myself benefit me quite a bit For the simple fact that I'm not getting lost as often as I did before when I spent almost two hours trying to find and remember the paths

So I'll keep playing and of course I'll be updating you on my findings in these dark depths. I also take this opportunity to tell you that Hollow Knight has me hooked on its world and that I'll surely bring this game here more often

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SEE YOU
