Thread 718977748

So why the weird radio silence from them for so long?

no internet in adelaide

>>718977748 (OP)
They sold something like 20 million copies of HK. Split among 3 people only.
Why would they talk or care about how soon it releases?

>>718978236
to keep people interested? idk usually devs are trying to eventually sell a product to people.

>>718978341
lol you think silksong suffers from lack of intrest ?

>>718978662
offline? yeah I do

>>718977748 (OP)
They didn't want people to see footage of the flipped assets and call it an asset flip

>>718977946
fpbp

>>718978341
In this case the lack of talking is making people more interested.

Gamers(tm) expect to be given every detail of a game's production these days, and whenever they do get that level of transparency it's always a fucking PR nightmare because nobody who plays video games actually understands how they're made.

these games aren't real.

>>718977748 (OP)
I feel like they just took the ironic jokes too seriously and though people were content enough with radio silence.
Combined with no reviews deal, few devs would be given pass for the BS they are doing.
Better hope the game actually lands.

pretty much that.

>>718977748 (OP)
They were probably just not comfortable with self promotion without a finished product, nor engaging with terminally online fans for any prolonged period of time.

because you're gonna buy it anyway

>>718977748 (OP)
because they gaslit the community ino thinking a player skin dlc was a sequel

>>718977748 (OP)
Transparency would have cost them literally millions of dollars. Ignoring their fans drove the fanbase to make one of the most successful viral marketing campaigns ever.

>>718977748 (OP)
They don’t owe you shit, incel.

>>718979665
this. the game doesn't exist outside of bullshots. you retards got played

>>718979616
the fuck does gulf coast jam have to do with video games

They've said why

kys samefag

fake glowie tranny game
devs are phishing preorders then they will take the money and run
game never even existed

>>718979705
im not going to buy it even if it is real. i'll just pirate it like i did the first one. game sucked anyways lmao

>>718979016
Humor me. Why would they pretend to make a game?

>>718977748 (OP)
Now they tell you it's because they were having too much fun. That's obvious cope. They don't have a good product and have been stalling for the inevitable embarrassment.

the devs are in the thread, just ask one of these guys

>>718980010
why would you waste your time pirating and presumably playing a game that sucks?

>>718978341
lmao they really didn't have to give a shit considering they didn't say anything at all and it's still shaping up to be such a massive release that everyone's moving release dates just to not be in the crossfire

>>718980110
get owned retard
i just pulled up the pirate bay and started another download and im going to seed all night
-1 copy of the game down the drain
the dollars in their wallet practically poofed out of existance

>>718980110
to spite reddit discord tranny retards like (you)

The shills are out in full force to defend their tranny game shits embarassing

>>718977748 (OP)
Last I heard, they're pretty much set for life so they can be as lazy as they want about it.

>>718977748 (OP)
They were working.

I would flip that question around: why the weird expectation that game devs are going to play social media influencers or e-celebs in between game releases?

>>718977748 (OP)
first you have to demonstrate that this "weird radio silence" actually exists, OP. how did you determine that there was radio silence, or that it was weird?

>>718981175
because they said it was going to be out in 2023 and then never communicated why it was delayed. They went radio silent and it was weird. You disingenuous fucking faggot.

>>718981274
i playaed hollow knight on release, enjoyed it, then heard the sequel was coming out on september 4th. so no i don't know what's weird

>>718981463
they announced it as a dlc skin swap then after they saw that gooners would go crazy over the ugly bitch they decided to pretend it was a real game and here we are 4 years later and they made milllions without even having tto make the game

>>718981735
but it hasn't gone on sale yet, how did they make millions of dollars off of it?
