To be fair, it has been for much longer, but understandably, it has intensified since its release. With everyone playing the game, it has quickly become one of the most popular games of the year. But while it is true that it has delighted most people, <strong>there is a growing rumor about a potential issue with the game: they may have gone overboard with the difficulty<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Although we do not support this perspective, we understand that there are people who find it to be a much more difficult game than the original. Or a difficult game, period. <strong>It is a demanding game and at certain moments, it has some design decisions that can be questionable<\/strong>. But that has also led one of the most vibrant communities in the video game world to jump in and fix what they consider, if not broken, at least improvable: the modding community.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>If you are waiting for a mod to reduce the difficulty of Silksong, the reality is that there isn&#8217;t one. There are already many <strong>because, as expected, modders have found many things they want to tweak in the game<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Steam\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/3047d89c-96d0-11e6-8546-00163ed833e7\/2505233623\/steam-download.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Steam<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/steam.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/steam.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mods to make your life easier<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Among the top 30 most popular mods for Silksong, <strong>it is important to remember that the game was released less than a week ago at the time of publishing this article, all of them help in one way or another to reduce the difficulty of the game<\/strong>. None change the game&#8217;s aesthetics or add elements from the original game. The most popular, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nexusmods.com\/hollowknightsilksong\/mods\/16\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">aptly named No Double Damage<\/a>, prevents enemies from taking away two masks per hit instead of one, which is one of the most common complaints among the community. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nexusmods.com\/hollowknightsilksong\/mods\/28\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">And ShowDamage HealthBar<\/a>, the second most popular, brings back one of the most popular mods from the first game. Being able to know how much health enemies have left, whether they are bosses or common enemies.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Hollow Knight: Silksong - Release Trailer\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6XGeJwsUP9c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>Surprisingly, or not so much for those who have played, the third most popular mod has nothing to do with combat. <strong>The game&#8217;s exploration is much more refined in Silksong than in Hollow Knight, but that doesn&#8217;t mean it doesn&#8217;t have some issues<\/strong>. For instance, the Compass, an item that allows us to know our position on the map, takes up a relic space. A tremendously questionable design decision by Team Cherry <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nexusmods.com\/hollowknightsilksong\/mods\/21\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">which is solved with the Always Have Compass Effect mod<\/a> so you don&#8217;t have to suffer from not knowing where you are at any given moment.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Some less popular mods, but you will like them too<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Of course, the mods don&#8217;t stop there. <strong>Does it bother you to have to spend a relic space to have the magnetism effect with objects?<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nexusmods.com\/hollowknightsilksong\/mods\/22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">Always Have Magnet Effect does exactly that<\/a>. Do you want to avoid having to backtrack every time a boss kills you? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nexusmods.com\/hollowknightsilksong\/mods\/46\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">That&#8217;s what Stakes of Marika &#8211; Rebirth Anywhere is for<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>And what if none of the above works? If you&#8217;re having trouble with exploration, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nexusmods.com\/hollowknightsilksong\/mods\/31\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">AutoMap will make your life easier to explore everything<\/a>. If combat is the issue, a combination of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nexusmods.com\/hollowknightsilksong\/mods\/43\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">Increase Player Damage<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nexusmods.com\/hollowknightsilksong\/mods\/38\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">Double Silk<\/a> should fix it. <strong>And if after all this you&#8217;ve read up to here shaking your head, thinking that you must be lazy to need any of these mods<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nexusmods.com\/hollowknightsilksong\/mods\/6\">you can get RenoDX &#8211; HDR &#8211; Hero Light &#8211; Bloom &#8211; And More to add all kinds of new visual effects to the game<\/a>, since you don&#8217;t need more changes than that.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>If none of these mods make your life easier to progress in your adventure, you might want to consider taking a break, going for a walk, and coming back when you&#8217;ve disconnected from the game. <strong>Sometimes that&#8217;s all it takes to internalize what we&#8217;ve been doing so far and finally have all the pieces click<\/strong>.
