Thread 717417398

Damn, and I just put away my Hollow Knight rainbow wig...

Time to crack out the makeup again! Honestly, anyone who thought silksong was gonna be in the partners direct was beyond delusional anyway.

>>717417672
Of course.

>>717417672
Still, the direct is surprisingly short, surely it must have something meaty to make up for the short runtime?

>BLUE PRINCE IS COMING TO NINTENDO SWITCH 2!!!

>>717417672
Makes way more sense than being at indie world, but really it's real direct material

>>717417398 (OP)
Silksong is way too big for an indie direct, If they had a trailer ready by now, then they'd have it shown during the partner showcase instead

>>717417398 (OP)
WHERE THE FUCK IS IT?!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
WHERE THE FUCK IS THE FIRST PARTY DIRECT

>>717419057
Gamescom

>>717417398 (OP)
silksong is too much of a big deal to be shown in indie worlds, if it gets a release date it'll be in the next general

>>717418889
they'd show it in a real direct by this point, it has enough clout.

>>717419153
>too much of a big deal
>was sidelined for a shitty deadpool game and used as bait for xbox's own handheld device
Mh hm

>>717419420
>was sidelined for a shitty deadpool game
it wasn't sidelined.
Silksong was never going to be shown, so they made a joke at its expense.

>>717417398 (OP)
Fuck Hollow Knight, its fans, and others who pretend they like that "game".


That being said...fingers crossed for
>Ori 3
>Sine Mora sequel
>Outland port
>some Diablo clone that is not Path of Exile

>>717419671
The gameplay shown in the handheld showcase looked pretty new to me.

>>717417398 (OP)
and next week they'll announce a regular nintendo direct right?

...right?

>>717419894
Buy Gleamlight then, it's the same horrible shit like HK.

Is hollow knight partner or indie which direct is it?

>>717417398 (OP)
Isn't that last month

>>717417398 (OP)
After the impossible happens and Silksong releases, what will be the next game stuck in development for years that people will meme about? There’s always one.

Undertale hard mode

>>717420397
We'll be waiting for Half life 3 our entire lives

>>717419420
>bait for xbox's own handheld device
doesn't this prove that it is, in fact, a big deal? Literally the only reason that shitty console has any chance at all is because Silksong was alongside it

>>717419885
well the youtuber who leaked the indie world a day in advance also claimed that nintendo had a three part direct strategy for august so do whatever you want with this info

>>717421016
He also said that Silksong won't appear tomorrow, so.....HK on suicide watch for the 43th time.

>>717418962
oh are they actually doing something?

Silksong won't be here, Microsoft has all the marketing rights

>>717417398 (OP)
My bet and hope is that Stray Children will be shown and get an explicit release date.

>>717423736
is that confirmed true or are you just guessing?

>>717424625
it's obviously not true since it appeared for a few seconds in the switch 2 direct in april (not like the recent xbox footage was much longer)

>>717424625
Every new piece of news or footage in these recent years have all been from Microsoft.
For example, them saying the game will come out this year and will be playable on their xbox ROG ally thing, and it will also be playable in gamescom on that device too.

>>717424706
Oh right I forgot about that, it was in the sizzle reel wasn't it?

>>717417398 (OP)
>Key Card World

Wrong.

I read that as India World for a brief second before realizing it was actually "indie".

>>717424893
That's just them showing the game will come to that console.
But actually news like you know, the release date, has all been Microsoft.
You can't deny the fact that the game demo will be playable ONLY on Microsoft's handheld in gamescom.

>>717425014
>But actually news like you know, the release date,
Microsoft NEVER announced any release date. They didn't even (directly) provide a release window, while that Switch 2 sizzle reel at least has a year. It still won't come out this year regardless

>>717419824
>Ori 3
not happening any time soon, Type Moon is tied up with their souls-like survival craft-em-up

>>717419824
I hated Ori

>>717425132
Microsoft was the first the announce that it will come out in 2025

>>717419824
There's a baller diablo clone being worked on that lets you switch perspectives

>>717419824
I loved Ori, one of the best indie games ever

>>717425363
You could infer that Silksong was coming this year but they didn't outright state so, their wording was flimsy at best (likely on purpose, as they were burned in the past by Team Cherry)
