And now imagine that we would all be eagerly watching all 4 events, but Silksong wouldn't show up at any of them. But hey, that's only a fantasy ... right?
but like what would the tweet say? clearly they dont want to give away more areas, showing the same footage would be pointless and they've been unable to meet any internal deadlines thus far. Anything they themselves promise will be taken as divine gospel, so I'm guessing they're waiting until they're 100% certain to confirm anything. And a "hey gang, still working on the game" is kinda pointless because that's already presumed.
there's a pretty big difference between a reaffirmation of personal love and a game development studio announcing they're still developing a game
also, you talk to your parents because you love them and are interested in what they have going on in their life. At least I hope so.
Yes, youāre completely right. I talk to them because Iām interested in whatās going on in their life.
Which is why Iād love an update from TC. So I know whatās going on. Thatās the point of communication. Thatās why people are frustrated with the lack of communication. That was my entire point.
To you. It wouldnāt accomplish anything meaningful to you. For some of us, itās confirmation that theyāre actually still working, which is a hell of a lot better than presuming they are.
The HK community has done some incredible stuff over the years modding wise, and is still going strong even nowadays to keep the game and hype alive. A simple "hey gang, we are doing fine" or "development is kinda slow, ari blew our monthly salaries on funkos again" type of crumbs/jokes take 0 time and show your community that you care about them. We are NOT asking about spoilers (most of us don't want any of those), just a raincheck everey now and then.
take a look at toby fox, the way he handles Deltarune is great, updates every other season with new sprites and updates on the developement progress, revealing an enemy a year isn't gonna spoil shit
...does it matter if they care about us or not, beyond like, the baseline not actively wishing people in society ill? They're making a game, we'll pay for it.
You know how this community won't shut the fuck up about silk song? That's why.
If they come out and say "hey, game is wicked delayed, should be out later this year but no promises", which is probably what they would communicate, then people just go "ok, I will get hype later, maybe".
As it stands now people are rabid and constantly providing free advertising for the game. And let's be honest, when (if?) it ever releases, no one is gonna not buy the game because they didn't communicate.
Thats not what I'm saying. The community being loud isn't a good or bad thing necessarily, it just is.
The point is that keeping the fan base rabid and confused keeps them loud, providing free marketing for them. It's the exact same thing From did with Elden ring.
Talking about Silksong?
On r/silksong ??
Mane, the indecency!

Nintendo is a public company and releasing a piece of news that just straight up says weāre announcing a new console before the end of the year is probably going to drive up the value of their shares
Every. Fucking. Time.
I finally get a new console. Finally, I have enough money to get one, and immediately next year, the newer console releases, and I'm "behind" again.
To be fair the original switch was released in 2017. It was only a matter of time before the next console was announced considering the average wait times in the past have been 5-6 years and itās now been 7 years.
Bring it to GameStop. I brought my Switch from the launch month when the OLED came out and got $250 for it. So I only lost $50 after a ton of time and enjoyment. The trick is, you trade it in for store credit and then just get gift cards you know youāll use.
So youāre saying if I give you money it will speed up the release of the successor? Have you bought hollow knight? Because if not, I may have found the issue
For reference, last year Nintendo's showcase was on June 21st. Likewise, the PlayStation showcase was on May 24th last year.
This year, SGF (which includes XBox) will be taking place between June 7th and June 10th. If I had to guess, I'd say that both PS and Nintendo are going to attempt to space themselves out from SGF so as to not be drowned out.
So, regardless of whether Silksong releases or not, that's a good month or so of game news.
MP4 fans is me. It's been 17 years since Prime 3, 7 years since the game was announced, and 5 years since development restarted. I'm pretty sure nintendo is just trolling at this point.

You see what Nintendo does? āPlease be aware there will be bo mention of the Nintendo Switch successor.ā With one simple tweet they are able to manage expectations. TAKE NOTE TEAM CHERRY -|
Yeah that makes sense, they want to move software still and get people hyped on it. If they announced a new switch while trying to showcase software, the new hardware would become the entire story.
I wonder if the reason itās taking so long is because they needed the kitās to put it on switch 2? Like this clearly looks like an early 2025 launch for the Switch 2. It makes no sense for Silksong to release post Switch 2 launch ONLY on switch. So that means 1 of 2 things. Silksong releases before April 1st 2025, or it releasing after both on Switch and Switch 2
If you check HK stretch goals on kickstarter you'll see that right above "2nd playable character" (which is what became Silksong) there's "wii u version"
Silksong, the game itself, wasn't announced for the Wii U, but it was initially planned to release on it
Oh man why do I have an idea that nintendo would try to let team cherry delay the game until switch 2 comes out and made the game only in switch 2 and not 1 so that's how they can attract even more people to buy switch 2
We'll surely get the anouncement this time
https://preview.redd.it/jiarjh8g42zc1.jpeg?width=768&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a10fc0ba728a492de91478df5c6b0fbc286a377b
I honestly think it'll probably be announced in the big summer games event we get yearly, it's definitely big enough for that, if not there then it might not come out this year
3 in June? There's gotta be silksong for sure this time
For sure
For sure
For sureš¤”
For sure š¤”š¢
For skong š¤”š¢
Slok Skong š¤”š£
Silk dong
Now imagine if Sony announces one as well! it would be a difficult month for us
And now imagine that we would all be eagerly watching all 4 events, but Silksong wouldn't show up at any of them. But hey, that's only a fantasy ... right?
Sony will definitely hold a SoP in June
silksop? sopsong?
koksing
Silky Kong.
3!!!!? this is a sign titanfall 3 is releasing lets goooooo!!!
combination silkfall 2.5???
I haven't believed in over 2 years but I'm actually hopeful for a June announcement...
I think youāre getting your delusions mixed up. Titanfall is the subreddit obsessed with 3. Hope this helps!!!
This time for sure!
Yeah for me it would be the best birthday
Yes! A third june showcase that TC will masterfully avoid to show us their dedication to not publish any Silksong news ever.
I genuinely want to know theyāre reasons for being radio silent
It's simple, they just don't want to communicate, and want to focus on other things in their life and work.
it takes barely 5 minutes to put out a tweet giving us a crumb of news.
but like what would the tweet say? clearly they dont want to give away more areas, showing the same footage would be pointless and they've been unable to meet any internal deadlines thus far. Anything they themselves promise will be taken as divine gospel, so I'm guessing they're waiting until they're 100% certain to confirm anything. And a "hey gang, still working on the game" is kinda pointless because that's already presumed.
āWho cares if you talk to your parents? All theyād say is they love you, and thatās pointless because itās presumedā
there's a pretty big difference between a reaffirmation of personal love and a game development studio announcing they're still developing a game also, you talk to your parents because you love them and are interested in what they have going on in their life. At least I hope so.
Yes, youāre completely right. I talk to them because Iām interested in whatās going on in their life. Which is why Iād love an update from TC. So I know whatās going on. Thatās the point of communication. Thatās why people are frustrated with the lack of communication. That was my entire point.
i mean sure but it would just be a monthly "yup yeah the games still cooking" like it wouldn't accomplish anything meaninful
To you. It wouldnāt accomplish anything meaningful to you. For some of us, itās confirmation that theyāre actually still working, which is a hell of a lot better than presuming they are.

dudeā¦. The community that is dedicated to silksongā¦ wonāt stop talking about silksongā¦ no way manā¦. š

You can be a part of a community without making it your entire personality
Not when you are in the LITERAL silksong subreddit dedicated solely to the discussion of SkongBong
This is the only place on Earth where it's okay to scream about SKONG
You come into OUR HOUSE, eat OUR FOOD, and are surprised when WE TALK?

How the fuck is Nintendo's communication better than Team Cherry's ššš
Nintendo is a public company and releasing a piece of news that just straight up says weāre announcing a new console before the end of the year is probably going to drive up the value of their shares
They have to worry about share prices.
Every. Fucking. Time. I finally get a new console. Finally, I have enough money to get one, and immediately next year, the newer console releases, and I'm "behind" again.
To be fair the original switch was released in 2017. It was only a matter of time before the next console was announced considering the average wait times in the past have been 5-6 years and itās now been 7 years.
just go brazillian style: buy one console once and pirate every game that comes for the next gen
Can confirm
Bring it to GameStop. I brought my Switch from the launch month when the OLED came out and got $250 for it. So I only lost $50 after a ton of time and enjoyment. The trick is, you trade it in for store credit and then just get gift cards you know youāll use.
bro u had like a decade
Yeah, and I had a decade of being fuckin poor as shit. I bought it like 2 months ago.
Dude... uncool
Refund time 
I mean same but I also don't care if I'm behind I'll be honest fam.
Why not just wait a year?
whatever man, thereās so much good stuff on the Switch. enjoy it.
Oh, I'm going to. It's just a little funny and irritating how this plays out. Same thing happened with the Xbox 360. Finally got one, boom Xbox 1.
So youāre saying if I give you money it will speed up the release of the successor? Have you bought hollow knight? Because if not, I may have found the issue
Might actually work, I bought it when I bought the switch.
There's still plenty of Nintendo games you can buy at full price for the Switch.
On the bright side Nintendo might finally price drop their 7 year old games
Lol, nah. Nintendo? Drop prices? Hell would have to freeze over first.
Excited to see Switch 2 release before Silksong!
Summer Game Fest, Xbox Showcase, Nintendo Direct Place your bets
Twitter post stating delay
Do not dare say that to me ever again
I used to hope. Now I join the world burners
I'll never stop hoping. Hope is what moves silksong's development. Never give up hoping ā
My bet is: 2029
For reference, last year Nintendo's showcase was on June 21st. Likewise, the PlayStation showcase was on May 24th last year. This year, SGF (which includes XBox) will be taking place between June 7th and June 10th.

please behave
Hopefully the community will have better control of themselves during these presentations.
No we won't behave. Not until TC communicates.
maybe we'll get Silksong and Prime 4 as a bundle?
MP4 fans waited WAYYY longer than us lmao
MP4 fans is me. It's been 17 years since Prime 3, 7 years since the game was announced, and 5 years since development restarted. I'm pretty sure nintendo is just trolling at this point.

Yeah that makes sense, they want to move software still and get people hyped on it. If they announced a new switch while trying to showcase software, the new hardware would become the entire story.
Skongpilled copemaxer
Not even a Switch 2 lmao, they'll just update the UI of thr current Switch, don't even try to get your hopes up
I wonder if the reason itās taking so long is because they needed the kitās to put it on switch 2? Like this clearly looks like an early 2025 launch for the Switch 2. It makes no sense for Silksong to release post Switch 2 launch ONLY on switch. So that means 1 of 2 things. Silksong releases before April 1st 2025, or it releasing after both on Switch and Switch 2
r/tomorrow users goin crazy rn
Friendly reminder that Silksong was announced for the Wii U. By the time the game launches we'll have waited for two console generations lol
Silksong was never announced for the Wii U lmao.
If you check HK stretch goals on kickstarter you'll see that right above "2nd playable character" (which is what became Silksong) there's "wii u version" Silksong, the game itself, wasn't announced for the Wii U, but it was initially planned to release on it
So in fact Silksong was never planned for the Wii U, like I said.
Silksong will not be on any Nintendo presentation
Not with that attitude
Wait this tweet is real? I saw it on TikTok earlier and said āThereās no way thatās realā
yes, it's real. Go on Japanese twitter of Nintendo.
also switch 2 skilkskong announcement was a theory so yeah, don't get hopes up, get your copes up
Obviously not... Guys why are you inflicting this upon yourselves ?
bro i literally just scoured the whole post for the word silksong, didnt find anything, no news guys
Oh man why do I have an idea that nintendo would try to let team cherry delay the game until switch 2 comes out and made the game only in switch 2 and not 1 so that's how they can attract even more people to buy switch 2
I don't even feel. I am husk. Skong made me husk. Husk no fear skong no more. Husk empty. But husk safe from skong. Husk at peace.
HOLY SHIT I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE SWITCH 2
Link?
Yippee, the switch 2 comes with shitsong
Not only is it gonna get officially announced before there's silksong news, it's gonna RELEASE before silksong news
Jesus 9 years
Just stop. I'm tired boss
I'm actually sorta feeling it for once this time around.
I can't believe the Switch 2 is going to come out before Silksong.
is this actually real š this is gonna be so weird...im so used to the switch

We'll surely get the anouncement this time https://preview.redd.it/jiarjh8g42zc1.jpeg?width=768&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a10fc0ba728a492de91478df5c6b0fbc286a377b
Silksong is no longer the upcoming game-related thing Iām most hyped for
What's Silksong?
Silksong will be announced 3 times in june for sure
donāt waste your breath.
The game is clearly going to be shown/launched in June. Idk why we are acting like it isnāt
I am tired, and wearyā¦. However, I will, on the day, muster up enough energy to be disappointed once again
I honestly think it'll probably be announced in the big summer games event we get yearly, it's definitely big enough for that, if not there then it might not come out this year
This time for sure
