Silksong is clearly a bigger game than we initially thought. At first, it was sounding like an expansion... But knowing how large HK was, I feel like they want to really raise the bar. I'm trying to keep my hype in check but the first one was one of my favorite games ever.

There were moments in HK where you'd enter a new area and see the environment and the music kicks in and you're like fukk... this is art :mjcry: if they can recreate that sense of wonder again, they can take as long as they need

Hey gang, just a quick update about Silksong.

We had planned to release in the 1st half of 2023, but development is still continuing. We're excited by how the game is shaping up, and it's gotten quite big, so we want to take the time to make the game as good as we can.

Expect more details from us once we get closer to release.

I’ll say this, when they finally drop Silksong they are gonna be filthy rich since its only like two of them working on it and people are anticipating it like its a true blue AAA title at this point

Wouldn’t be surprised if it does like 3 mil out the gate

Hollow Knight is probably my favorite Metroidvania, and these mfs actually managed to ruin any excitement I had for this :heh: You can’t move like Rockstar with only one game under your belt. Idc how many nikkas on the dev team, shyt was crowdfunded and they can’t even give bare minimum communication :dead:

Lets be serious, when they announce a date for it we gonna be hype.

Its just not worth caring about in the meantime, like little devil inside and metal slug tactics for me, they don’t exist at this point.
