I never played Hollow Knight but I hear that Silksong is substantially more difficult? What are the major differences?

Hollow Knight rewards patience and learning. Most enemies and bosses have clear attack patterns. When you get hit, you'll usually have a safe zone or period where you can heal.

Except for Primal Aspids.

Silksong rewards having more patience and faster learning. A lot of the frustrating areas in Silksong actively deny you safe zones and periods. A lot of the frustrating enemies in Silksong will remind you of the Primal Aspids.
