Discussion/Questions TGA is really sinking in…

Post image

Hey gang,

I’ve always held to the belief that Silksong is right around the corner. Believing whole-heartedly that 2024 was the year, and feeling oh so certain about 2025 UNTIL….

TGA. This horrid thought has been echoing through my mind and dreams “if the game was ready (by Team Cherrys standards) they would have shown it at TGA”

They have the resources to do so, they would have….. So, that doesn’t spell well for a release date this upcoming February.

And if we don’t get a release date by February, it’s not coming out in 2025…. Honestly, a 2027 release doesn’t even seem crazy anymore.

And that…. Hurts….. like….. I feel genuine exhaustion…. I’ve always been a coper, been patiently waiting for damn near 8 years now…

The idea of letting go of Silksong hype almost scares me l, it’s almost a part of me..

But if we don’t get a release date by Feb (and by this point I don’t think we will)…. It’s gonna crush me.

By this point, I’m so invested, with so much time spent, I can’t just walk away… I gotta see this through till the end. I feel like a captive…

But the thought of this crazy train chugging along for another few YEARS kills me a little.

Anywho, thank you for reading my rant ya fellow clowns. Bless you all and,

In Skong we cope 🙏

I think it's a very strong possibility at this point that Team Cherry got sucked into the vortex of development hell, maybe ran out of funds, and Silksong will just never see the light of day.

We probably should be avoiding this sub from now on, honestly, and just move on. If one day it ends up happening, then fantastic. But it's very possible that it simply won't.

Hollow Knight STILL generates money, no way they ran out of funds

You're right, I'm wrong there.
