Really ? Not even a tiny update?

[WanderingArtist]

Death stranding 2 got announced and you don't have a tiny update for Silksong?

There's no way you can defend them, they can make a small update easily.

What is wrong with you?

I just want a tiny update, even a small paragraph stating that's all is good, is that too much to ask ?

You’re making it sound like team cherry are the worst devs ever lol like this is such a trivial thing, just be patient, we already know it’s going to come sometime in the first half of 2023.

I don't want a release date, I want an update they can take another 10 years but I don't like radio silence.

They're among the worst at marketing, you have to grant that.

Silksong should not have been announced when it was. If you announce a game, you really need to trickle out some breadcrumbs of information to maintain interest and build hype. instead they've done practically nothing and their lack of communication is building consumer apathy instead.

I think plenty of us would rather have just had more Hollow Knight updates instead at this point.

On June 2022, on the Xbox showcase, it was confirmed that Silksong was going to be released within the next 12 months (so around 6 by today). This was also confirmed by one of Silksong's testers and admins of the Discord server.
So until we get past that and the game still isn't out, we don't really need more updates.

Its just not smart to release gameplay trailers so early in development if you are not willing to follow it up with a steady flow of contentupdates.

After 5 years of development, they should at least announce a release date window, even if the release date is still a year away.

I don't think they planned for Silksong to be so big and had a lot of feature creep. Originally it was just a stretch goal dlc for funding hollow knight on kickstarter. Was just gonna be an alternate playable character iirc

LoL, I'll believe it when I see it. This thing will probably not going to come out in 2023 either.

[Nihiliste]

You prefer good marketers that still market a trashy woke game yea ?
Give them the time necessary to release one of the best platformer of all time.

Worst at marketing? Idk about that. They could definitely have teased info about the game a bit more but honestly, I’m just happy we got that gamepass trailer about it that gave us an actual specific timeframe when we can expect the game to be released. I’m now content with just playing other games in the meantime while I wait bc at least I have a timeframe to expect. Like once the game comes out and I play it, I won’t even care or think about the wait I did for it anymore like so many other game releases in the past I was hyped for like super smash bros brawl for example.

They had to announce it, given silksong was planned as a DLC and people were waiting for it regardless.

It's one thing not to want to create false hype, and another to go completely radio silent. Sadly, Team Cherry is doing the latter, and it's not a great marketing tactic. Development updates - even if small in scale - helps maintain people's interest.

Hopefully Team Cherry consider a change in approach in that regard. Sometimes hiring a person to report from the developers back to the players and vice versa can take off the burden of communication.

I mean they're not obligated to update you. No one gave them money. And the game is well-known and anticipated enough that they can drop news at any point and restart the hype train.

In the end, it won't make any difference to them. The only ones who are affected are the people who feel like Cherry owes them something.

How about the backers who paid for the stretch goal that became this game?
