Silksong is the most astroturfed game in history
kek true, such mid game
Memesong looks betterThe first one just felt like any other MV.
>>71938613050k current for an indie is pretty good, as is the 2-10k that it constantly maintained since release..Bloodstained for instance peaked early and then rarely went over 1k, similar with Ori 2 peaking early and then sitting around 2k. Not the biggest hollow Knight fan, but it's very popular for an indie Metroidvania.
pc isn't really the main platform for those type of games.played it 2-3 hours. was too boring to continue.
>>719386734>50k currentpeople who fell for astroturfing campaign. this just proves they never played the game and started playing recently
Will I like this if I liked Ori
>>719386130>anon is confused and doesn't understand peak players for a single player game stops relating to overall sales a few weeks inUndertale has sold millions of copies and it's peak player count never went over 15k on steam
>>719386130It's an indie game that's available on gog, the "omg I love indie games" crowd will have bought it on there or on console
No, of course all those people bought Hollow Knight years ago and got nostalgic just because of the news. Why would you doubt any of that?
>>719386862More likely people returning, since I doubt the same 10k people have been playing the game since 2020. Personally Hollow Knight is not a game I see myself replaying. Grim was a fun fight, but not worth replaying the whole game.
>>719386130I tried to play it for a while but it felt so bland. Dunno why some people go crazy over it.
Silksong is gonna get astroturfed harder than Baguette 33 isn't it?
>>719387148>australians have the ability to conjure 50,000 bots out of the ethertruly the most powerful race
Hollow Knight (and also Hades) did not break out until it came to Switch.That’s where the majority of the audience is.
Should every playercount wannane jew faggot simply be killed, or raped first too?
>>719386928Ori is very platform orientated and gives you various powerups for that purpose. Ori 2 still does but also has an insanely good battle system they never make that much use of outside of bosses and arenas.Hollow Knight is not really excellent at platforming and battle system so it's more of a question how much you enjoy the visuals and nothingburger lore crumbs dropped throughout the world.
>>719387148>and got nostalgicWorse, those are all people who bought the game, played a tiny bit and praised it only for now to finally go "OH SHIT I should actually beat the game before buying he new one".And of course they HAVE TO buy Silksong, day 1. This is not up to debatte because the internet hype already told them so.
>>719386130>nobody played Hollow Knight>sold 14 million copies
>>719386130Retard.
>no one>absolutely no one>not even that guys mom>that guy: TRAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
>>719389803You're completely retarded if you believe this. It had already sold millions before it was released on any console.
>>719390308Man, everyone has that game. Even I have it though I pirated it for my playthrough. It was probably part of a bundle or given away for $1 at some point.
>>719386130I played Hollow Knight and enjoyed it, but I never understood the hype/thirst for Silksong.Like I'll probably play it at some point but I don't think it's the second coming of Jesus Christ or some shit.
>>719391867>I don't think it's the second coming of Jesus Christnobody does, people just want to play more hk
>>719390419Hollow Knight sold only 500K copies for years (“only 500K” that number is great, great success for an indie, but it’s still very much an indie thing to the side) and made little noise in the mainstream until its debut on Switch. It sold 200K on Switch alone in the first two weeks which took years to do on Steam.CCU numbers and this thread existence are just extra proof and confirmation on what we already knew. No one played it on steam. A majority of buzz came from the Switch audience. Most HK fandoms are Switch fans.Hades is the exact same way, which is why Hades 2 is a Switch exclusive.The SteamDeck existence is to keep Nintendo from taking away these type of games. Valve is trying to break free from Microsoft is part of it too, but this is also in consideration: the Switch fragmenting the indie money from steam. So far, it has not been a very successful venture for Valve. The better product won and will keep winning in the foreseeable future. They can however shift to stationary home console instead since Microsoft is truly shitting the bed and leaving an open slot.
I just don't get the appeal.Why would I play a shitty 2D platformer Dark Souls with excessive backtracking if i could just play Dark Souls?
