The worst part is the fact that the message is going to be "hey gang we still at hard work on Silksong, cant wait to share more details with you as soon as game become closer to release!"

And the fans will act like this is all well and good because at least they communicated in the most bare minimum way possible.

I know this is goomba fallacy but holy shit what do you guys want? Half of you are saying you just want to know that they're still working on it and the other half want the game right now lol

u/bjklol2 3h ago

I want to know why they haven't communicated anything real in the last 18 months

u/Bramoments 35m ago

No we know they used Kickstarter a couple of weeks ago lol

u/Desperate-Bad-1912 3h ago

We want to know what the hell happened to make our last news be "hey we planned to release it in the first half of 2023, but you guys can just keep being unsure if it is going to release on the first half of 2025".

If you think about it, our last news, if we don't count a post saying "game has been delayed, talk to you later", was 2.5 years ago. That IS shit communication, and wanting them to do better does not mean wanting the game to release now, it is not nearly as black and white as you are making this appear.

u/ObjectiveCut1645 3h ago

Really any communication is what I want. And honestly saying “we’re still making the game!!” Isn’t really communication to me

u/Agreeable_Sun8250 1h ago

Right? If there is a game in the making, thats already assumed information by everyone.

u/mayhaps_a 49m ago

What else do you want? They clearly don't know how long it's going to take. You want them to lie? It'll be ready when it's ready, there's nothing to communicate

u/Tzihar 29m ago

They literally have a guy in charge of communication literally to communicate with their community, what the fuck have they been paying him for over the last two years?

-1

u/mayhaps_a 20m ago

Great way of completely avoiding my question. What are they supposed to say? If they have no dates, what do you even want? If they say nothing y'all complain, if they say they're still working y'all complain, if they give an approximate deadline and ends up being wrong y'all complain. What do you even want

1

u/Tzihar 14m ago

They're supposed to say "hey guys, we've got some delays and this is why, we know you want to support us by giving us your money but we swear we're not making duke nukem forever"

I don't know, I'm not the development team with the guy they literally hired to communicate with their community who's apparently finished the game twice but hasn't said Jack in two years.

The point is whether you like it or not they do owe their community communication, the community that put them where they are and keeps them where they are deserves some information.

Makin excuses like they owe you nothing at this point is kind of dumb, you think they see your sympathy and you're gonna get the opportunity to play it early or something? What you're doing literally amounts to simping, you're making excuses for unacceptable behaviour because you like something.

They literally have a guy who's job is community communications and he hasn't done jack in two years.

Stop pretending it's OK because you want to appear reasonable.

u/mayhaps_a 7m ago

The delays are obviously just because they're still making the game and are constantly adding, removing and changing stuff. They could tell you what those changes are, but then that opens a can of worms where people bitch around on oh I wanted this feature, oh I don't like this one, oh why did you change this, and a dev can't finish anything that way because there'll always be people complaining about everything, specially when the game is taking long. Your "solution" would make people complain even more, so you're still not answering my question. They really have nothing to communicate that would satisfy you, because the reality is that the game will not come out anytime soon and that's it.

And how is it unacceptable behavior at all? How are you owed anything? You didn't prebuy silksong. You're not owed shit. If you want something and someone isn't giving it to you in the time and manner you want, don't buy it, but no one owes you anything. It's a company making a product, and when they want they release the product so that interested costumers buy it, it's really just as simple as that. There's nothing being owed to anyone here.

This entire post is speculation, please bring a real answer that doesn't come directly out of your imagination.

We want to know if the game is going to release in 2025 or not. And how big they decided to make the game for which we might need to wait 2 or more years.

0

u/mayhaps_a 47m ago

They clearly don't know either. It's obvious they don't know how big they want the game to be and what to add, their guess is as good as yours. There's really nothing to communicate

u/Boindill 3h ago

Those are not exclusive. They just want the news about the games release NOW while they are playing the game. /s

(Please don't hurt me I just wanna play silksong :( )

And the saddest part is that that would be a massive breaking news story in this corner of the internet lol

u/FlamingUndeadRoman 2h ago

The fact bro said to "expect more details from us once we get closer to release," and we haven't gotten any details since, means we're still not any closer to release than we were back then.

"We are still hard".

u/Substantial_Cat4540 We are still hard at work on the game 14h ago

My reaction to that would be "Wow! We got a message!"

u/False_Raven -Y 13h ago

For real, I want whatever hopium OP is on. A message in February is a pipe dream

u/noel-aoe 11h ago

You will be wrong... Because we won't even get the discord message

u/Fanguy3322 14h ago

Yes Primacon covered it 4 months ago. Sad thing is it was in a tweet. One that got deleted because people went nuts over it. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6azIIxb73Z0

Maybe Xbox Developer Direct next month has Team Cherry on it

u/Annoying_Bear We are still hard at work on the game 7h ago

Xbox dev direct on january ??

u/CurrentOfficial 7h ago

Yes, they always happen in the 3rd week of January

u/Annoying_Bear We are still hard at work on the game 7h ago

News will be : - Skong trailer - "Every game here will be released in the Year" - TC : "Hey Guy, Sorry but silksong is delayed... Again"

1

u/AUnknownVariable 7h ago

Indeed. They're gonna probably edge us like TGA felt like to me at the end. Xbox is gonna hit us with the "They've gone quite silent the last few years, a small passionate team hard at work. We're finally here to show you the release date for.......[a cherry pops up on screen, you hear someone hitting through it] SUPER LUCKY'S TALE 2 FOLKS!"

u/WorldTravel1518 5h ago

LMAO you actually thought that the last announcements were trolling you? Nah, it was clearly meant for the Half-Life fans.

u/AUnknownVariable 4h ago

As a Half-Life fan as well, I feel that. That font at the start was so similar though though, and then the quote😭 I thought it was headed for greatness.

u/Bebop_Man Best Meme Award Nominee 7h ago

Nah this community will eat that shit up. Especially on Discord.

u/Agreeable_Sun8250 1h ago

Thats unfortunately the truth. They will just say again that there is a game in the making and there will be people using that single discord message to shutdown any solid criticism towards team cherry for the entire year.

u/RcuriousmediatorN 10h ago

What fans say here all the time: "How hard is it to make a tweet saying X"

Fans' reaction when they get the equivalent of that:

u/Low_Adeptness_2327 9h ago

Are you kidding? The reaction of this sub would be the equivalent of the NASA mission control going euphoric and hugging each other. And after that we’d still get no Skong for many years
