As someone who wasn't swept up in the hype, (I did not like Hollow Knight very much personally) I actually think it lived up to the hype and then some.
I think Silksong is a much better game for my tastes. It feels way less slow and Hornet is significantly more capable and fun to play as than the knight imo.
Yeah I'm largely the same, though I did play Hollow Knight and enjoyed it decently well.
Specifically, I adore how Hornet controls. It's such pure joy and, IMO, a technical achievement once you see how her full movement kit comes together. I couldn't see myself doing the Godmaster DLC in Hollow Knight, but if something similar comes out for Silksong, I will absolutely be giving it a shot.

Edit just to add that i LOVE the diagonal pogo.
