At $20 this is a day one Steam purchase for me. Even if I don’t get around to playing it for the next several months.
i expected it to be more ngl
I think I’ve spent more time waiting for Silksong in the past week than ever before.
Many others would’ve made it at least twice as much, knowing that regardless of the cost, it would’ve sold like crazy.
For all of team cherry’s trolling the past two years, this is a welcome surprise.
I might have to consider it. On the one hand, I did get to a point in Hollow Knight where I just wasn’t enjoying it anymore so I never finished it. But at $20 for a brand new game, I’ll consider it. Unfortunately I have a backlog right now, but overall things just aren’t working out for me and my gaming time.
It took me three tries before I really got into Hollow Knight, but when it clicked, it clicked. Kind of like Dark Souls. Started that one as well a couple times and petered out, but on the next playthrough, it became one of my favorite games.
This is what happened to me too when it came out. Tried like 3 times, couldn’t get it into it. Next thing I knew I was doing any% speedruns, earned all achievements, and cleared all radiant bosses. The only thing I haven’t done in that game was the pantheons with all bindings, those are insane lmao
That’s exactly where I also put down the controller, haha. All pantheons and platinum (and path of pain - which I think might be an achievement?) was enough. All bindings is just a little more masochism than I can handle!
It’s nuts LOL. I’m not sure how I clutched out the radiant boss clears but couldn’t handle the binding pantheons, I tried dusting it off this week and I’m definitely way too rusty now. Maybe I’ll revisit it after Silksong
Whoa. Enormous respect to Team Cherry for this. It’s so cool to see people not rinsing passionate fans! Well done 🤘
I don’t even like Hollow Knight that much but I’ll buy it because it’s $20.
You do you, but I don’t recommend buying games you don’t want to play
Sometimes you just want to admire your collection.
Me with a Steam library of 666 games having only played like 10% of them.
Wow! Between BG3, CO:E33, and Slik Song, all the AAA lies are falling away. They don’t have to cost the user an arm and a leg, they can be beautiful works of art and love from small(ish) teams, and they can be an experience that is so rich in player choice it’s practically unique and highly replayable.
Release date announced? It’s this week?!
9/4
How is it possible you missed it? The internet exploded when they published the release date trailer, it’s coming out in 3 days!
Lol I dunno. This is the first I’ve heard of it. I’ve been on Lemmy all week too!
Yep, if I haven’t been hallucinating the past week
and they’re going to prove the same point stardew did, by selling multiple copies to the same people on different platforms and blowing any sales projections they might have made out of the water, that video games right now are ridiculously overpriced.
If they’re only pricing it $20, how do explain the €100 I’m about to spend on it???
The founders edition will come with a hornet figurine mom! It’s going to only increase in value!!!
I bought hallow knight 3 times. Seems Silk Song will be the same.
Hollow Knight was only $15 and got a lot of free DLC. The developers considered it a huge success.
This is how to do it
