Monthly average for Steam releases is 1.1k last time I checked.

I also feel totally out of the loop with Silksong since I never played or really was interested in Hollow Night, but to see these posts makes it look like the indie version of GTA6 or something.

It's funnier to me that nobody gives a fuck about Borderlands 4 and is more scared of Silksong fucking up their launch.
>>
Without sufficient basis, this doesnt really mean anything, what is the evidence 7/10 games were cancelled, why is there no relative comparison to prior years. Or even prior months beyond september, to ground a frame of reference how truly uncommon this is.

And most importantly, why was this done now with zero frame of reference for what the expected steam releases were before Silksong was announced.

And theres even more to prod.

None of this is contexualized. Is that graph games released since September started, or games expected to release in September?

And finally: None of this matters because 90% of games released on steam are garbageware that shouldnt be released anyway.

oh my god, think about the damage they are doing to the indie scene. also only 19.99? this is an outrage, they are raising the bar stupidly high. think about the indie devs whose livelihoods you are taking away. be better, cherry team

>>719651860
Nigga what, the comparison is right there in OP. Every month of this year has had 1500+ games, and suddenly september only has 500.

>>719651730
It’ll be funny if Silksong ends up failing to break 100k after all the hype
It won’t it’ll probably be one of the biggest releases of the year and probably the second biggest indie release of all time on Steam behind Palworld
>>
>>719651962
I mean with those numbers it is bound to have a great launch.
Other devs are in their right mind to be scared. A lot of people will spend their time with Silksong and have no desire for anything else.
If your game launch is a flop you might have a hard time to create hype again.

Launch a Metroidvania with an artsyle that appeals to loud autists at a poorfag price in the middle of a 2 decade Metroid drought.

Simple, fun gameplay that appeals to normies. In other words: the exact opposite of what /v/eddit preaches, which is convoluted, tedious, and generally lacking in gameplay.

>>719656229
You might be thinking of Below Zero, a standalone DLC for Subnautica 1. (It sucks; avoid it.)

Subnautica 2 is/was in dev hell and the publisher sacked the studio creative directors because they were apparently insufferable woke assholes who were tanking the game with their poor decisions.
>>

God isn't that the goat game bitch that turned an anon into a tranny? Lmao

>>719654878
I'd say it's GOTY material but some stupid dog released part of his unfinished game and got 100 million sales so the competition is stiff
>>
>>719657550
Silksong beating E33 for GotY would be hilarious.

>Undertale
I don't know if it can really be a GotY contender since it's not a game and more just DLC since the 'game', Undertale itself, has been out for free on Steam for years. Chapters 3 and 4 are just new content for an older game.
>>
>>719657550
Absolutely no one is voting fucking Deltarune as game of the year, I doubt it's even eligible for a nomination since it's not finished
>>
>>719656229
It's in dev hell because the company sacked key employees to avoid paying out a previously agreed 250m bonus LMAO

>>719648196
THAT'S RIGHT
GIVE SILKSONG A WIDE BERTH
SEPTEMBER IS SILKSONG TERRITORY
>>
>>719656987
>>719658496
So which one is it?
>>
>>719658843
The CEOs that got sacked were just incompetent. The 'muh bonus' thing is window dressing to make it look like it was the publisher being mean, when things like bonus payments would have special clauses in contracts when you're in the executive team.
>>
>>719658843
both

by making the most middle of the road game that appeals to the largest audience possible
I liked HK btw, it offered nothing mechanically but it had visual appeal
