Edit: And for those trying to spin the narrative now that only people who play a few hours say anything bad about it, I got the Platinum for this game on PS4 after buying it before it came on Plus. Did everything legit and explored everything besides using exploit for only the last mega boss rush trial at the very end.
Some excellent music (hornet), environmental art style (not all but more places than not) and enemy animations but world is overall too empty even for a Souls-esque. They should have made the world smaller to give it more weight. Backtracking became tedious and unenjoyable as game progressed as did the overall game as I just wanted to finish it and move on. It was overall depressing and too dark.
This review covers why better than I have time for. She lives games and has played 1000s. More valid and articulate arguments than toxic vocal fanboys who overhype and try to discredit any criticism because from what I've noticed, those are the ones who tend to not play many games to have a valid guage to begin with:

Warning - This game is hard, damn hard. The most difficult game I've ever played. It's so difficult that it's frustrating and actually makes the game a bit unenjoyable.
IMO Castlevania: Symphony of the Knight and Bloodstained: Ritual of the Knight are much more enjoyable to play, and have way better music.
If you never played it but like this genre, you do not want to pass this game up. Plus Silksong (Hollow Knight 2) will be out real soon.

To those of you hearing both that it's overhyped and it's the greatest thing since sliced bread, I would say you 100% cannot go wrong spending $6.00 on this game.
You just really can't. People have laid out their case for it and those who have said they never came back to finish it.
But the truth is, you should discover this game for yourself.
ALSO -- and THIS IS IMPORTANT!! Do *NOT* judge this game as boring or overhyped if you have not played at least 3 hours. The first couple of hours truly are slow and a bit plodding because you're not getting any amazing powers right away.
Drink in the atmosphere and the music and if you get 4-5 hours in and still think it's not worth it, you've spent $6.00 on worse. You bought a McRib combo, don't lie.
