EIGHT. FUCKING. YEARS.

AND EIGHT MORE :D

>>717052208 (OP)
I'll wait for it for 10 more years if Ari animates an hour of Hornet x Lace

>>717052208 (OP)
AND I'M JAVERT. DO NOT FORGET ME. DO NOT FORGET MY NAME.

It's going to be the funniest shit if this still manages to miss a 2025 release date.

>>717052942
It probably will. Their communication is non-existent and team cherry don't deserve the benefit of the doubt.

>>717052208 (OP)
It's a 2D side scroller. If it ever comes out, it will already have been through the 9th circle of development hell and so the original vision has most likely already been lost.

>>717052583
TO THE LEFT TO THE RIGHT

YOURE A DANGEROUS NUN

>>717052208 (OP)
I feel like they're waiting for me to be at the first game before releasing it. I started it in 2018 and never finished it

>>717052208 (OP)
Maybe the developer died?

>>717052208 (OP)
This is the year.
New demo at Gamescom means the game is complete, and it has to come out before ACMI because it will have massive content spoilers.
Late August - early September 2025.
Just wait a little bit longer.

>>717054623
Anon, there's no way it's coming out this month.

>>717052208 (OP)
they must've developed it 4 times over at this point, great work ethic!

>>717054734
Hollow Knight's release date was announced only two weeks before launch.

SEVEN FUCKING DOLLARS

>>717052208 (OP)
Eight years for GOTC isn't really that long. In a sense we've already been waiting 25 years.

I died waiting for this game to come out

>dev hell for a 2D game
>not even good marketing for a game that is supposed to release this year
This game is going to bomb on release

>>717055114
It will absolutely not bomb, it's one of the most wishlisted games on Steam and it's constantly in the news cycle because of the deranged fanbase. Team Cherry doesn't have to do shit.

I can't wait for this game to get GOTY and mog both E33 and Death Stranding 2

>>717055114
They could shadow drop it right now and it would sell a million copies in the next hour.

>>717055170
bomb in the sense of not meeting those expectations after so many years and them being so scared to show the game. The way they are dealing with this game makes me feel like it's going to be a shitshow, but yes, it's going to end up selling just like Cyberpunk anyway

>>717055218
>expecting any other game to win in the Sony shilling event
LMAO death strading also deserves it anyway

>>717052208 (OP)
Try seventeen

>>717055604
This holds the world record, unironically. Since they keep insisting that it's still in development.

>>717055462
>>717055218
E33 is the journo darling. They're still blabbing about how the game was developed by 3 people, 25 euros and pocket lint.

>>717052208 (OP)
was Hollow Knight unchangeable spaghetti code or something?

i'm having a bath, anon. please get out

How do you think they'll price it? I'm thinking $30.

I feel like this shit happens all the time. Indie studios go one of two ways:

1: They have a successful kickstarter, get a ton of money, then take forever to underdeliver on 90% of their promises.

2: They release a game, it makes a ton of money, and then suddenly it starts taking them eons to do literally anything else.

as soon as they get cash, they implode from within

>>717055337
>bomb in the sense of not meeting those expectations
doesn't matter, hype causes retards to overlook shit like this all the time

who cares man

they want to stay relevant

they're playing the biggest fucking long con of the decade

>>717053463
it will be the greatest 2d game ever made and will set the bar for generations

>>717056543
>They release a game, it makes a ton of money, and then suddenly it starts taking them eons to do literally anything else.
Yeah. Same thing happened with Yacht Club Games.

>>717055462
>>717056127
You both will kneel to my post when Silksong takes the GOTY award
This has been cooking FOR YEARS and NOTHING will ever top it

>>717053463
>the hulkster didn't get to play silksong

>>717056437
Only if I can drink the bath water

>>717057131
Memes aside silksong IS the only game capable of beating E33 for goty. Nothing else short of a total dark horse has a chance. I'm talking like ds1 out of nowhere level dark horse.

>>717054623
Silksong has always been fall coded to me because of the colors associated with it. Maybe late september but something tells me it will be an October release. November for sure, I don't think it will be a December release. When does the xbox fisherprice pad release? Because for whatever reason it seems tied to that.

>>717053562
lol same, I got it on sale for like 5 bucks years ago but got bored.
Metroidvanias shouldn't be longer than 10-20 hours. Also the aesthetic and "lore" werer really boring

>>717057131
Silksong will win best action game. E33 will take the GOTY as its a win for developers and a big middle finger to AAA bloat and bureaucracy.

>2.5x bigger than HK
absolute kino. remember all the joy from discovering new regions in HK, and imagine it lasting over twice as long

>>717052208 (OP)
that's how long games take to make these days, apparently. every damn company seems to have this issue

>>717057731
It's the damn game awards. There's nothing more pro-AAA bloat and bureaucracy.

>>717057731
>big middle finger to AAA bloat and bureaucracy
Yea no one gives a fuck. DK is better than E33 Slop anyways

8 years for a mid shallow knight mod...

>>717057732
awful, the first game had barely any content to be entertaining for 6-8 hours

>>717057284
it didn't work for him brother.

>>717052208 (OP)
>it releases (someday)
>is worse than HK (an already mid game)
lol, lmao.

>>717055337
if it's even half as good as hollow knight it will be a beloved game for years to come

>>717052208 (OP)
How I hope there will be a documentary explaining exactly what made this game's development take longer than seven years.

>>717057732
>imagine it lasting over twice as long

>>717052208 (OP)
It has been delayed to 2026

>>717060774
being a contrarian will get you a girlfriend one day bro

>>717052208 (OP)
Imagine if this stupid game finally comes out but it just ends up being DOA because of people losing interest from the radio silence and years of waiting to a point where even the memes stopped being funny.

>>717065094
You underestimate autists

Silksong is not real, it can't hurt you.

>>717065094
that could maybe only happen if they shadow dropped it

I'd be really lazy too if I made a game that made me a millionaire

>>717052208 (OP)
I wonder if they are going to keep the promise they made when they delayed Silkons saying it was going to be a standalone game instead of DLC for Hollow Knight and still give it free to the original backers that helped get the milestone

>>717065094
I doubt it. The wait for Silksong as been a growing trend that at this point, I wouldn't be surprised if they've been purposefully delaying it for even more publicity.

Fun fact, step monster came back before silk song

>>717052583

>>717052208 (OP)
They're multi millionaires. The fact that they're working on it at all, instead of retiring, is a blessing.

>>717057731
Game awards don't follow any logic. It's primarily picked based on what representatives of gaming journalists outlets decide it to be, sometimes they're reasonable but usually there will be a few decisions that make no sense

silksong is gonna have more features than star citizen

>Silksong's post game is just redesigned hallownest

>>717065764
Scam citizen?

>>717054623
A demo doesn't mean shit, lots of indie games shit out a demo and then squat on nothing for fucking years

Death Trash took 5 years just to make part 2 of their EA as an example.

>>717054623
>and it has to come out before ACMI because it will have massive content spoilers.
It would be fucking hilarious if it still wasn't out by then.

>>717055114
I just wanted to see if they add tons of other characters other then hornet like after beating the game once you start "unlocking" others that were like the dead spirit bugs from the 1st game,such cool designs & never seen again

>>717057641
Fall coded for Australians is March-May

>>717056543
>hades 2 is shit
>silksong in dev hell
>no new cuphead
>no new balatro content (skins doesnt count)
>slay the spire 2 taking forever (but at least its on its way)
>might no9 massive flop
I think the only one who delivered was Bloodstained

>>717066584
Other than mighty no9 shitstained is the worst game in your entire list

>>717052208 (OP)
Noine years.

>>717052208 (OP)
There's hundreds of indieshit metroid clones out there. You are not starved for choice.

still havent done p5

>>717065094
I'm legitimately fed up with team cherry's bullshit but it'll be a day one buy for me.

>>717066584
The difference between Mighty No 9 and Bloodstained is so funny. If Inafune just let Inti make a 2D game and not forced them make a 3D game in an engine they weren't used to then it probably would have succeeded and he wouldn't be the laughing stock of the industry right now. Meanwhile, Igarashi realized early on that Inti wasn't suited for Bloodstained's development and got them out of the project early and instead let them to make two fantastic games with Curse of the Moon 1 and 2. Really drives in how much of a hack Inafune is.

>>717052208 (OP)
FOR. A. FUCKING. FLASH. LOOKING. ASS. GAME.

>>717067141
that's what made the 1st game great though m8

>>717054623
>before ACMI
before what

I can't wait to explore hallownest again bros I'm so fucking excited for this game it's going to be so good

>>717065920
something twisted in me kind of hopes this ends up being true and the game doesnt even come out this year. ill obviously buy day one if it does tho

>>717052208 (OP)
It's still ded, Jim.
