I bought the game on a whim for the switch, but I feel ill prepared. I don’t usually play heavy action games like this and I hear it’s especially hard for what it is. But I want to try.

Ah nice, I’ve also started the game recently. I’m around 18h in. Currently keep dying to the Mantis Lords.
Granted I’m 18h in cus I’ve also discovered 2 areas I’m not supposed to from what I see. The City of Tears and the one with a lot of wind where you learn a new move (forgetting the name).
I don’t think there is a “wrong” path in Hollow Knight honestly. Somewhere around the gardens it starts opening up in all directions, and all have something to find.
It’s not really like a Metroid-style game where there is a hidden but clearly intended path (even though there are ways to deviate from it). HK has some ability gates, but comparatively not that many.
