Yeah, its pretty based

>>719796717
apparently it caused Playstation and Nintendo store fronts to crash as well

>>719796717

Regardless of if it was out of malice, greed, ignorance, or simply not being aware that this could happen, this was a real fucking stupid decision if Team Cherry is truly responsible for not allowing preorders.

This is a very stupid line of thinking.

NOT allowing preorders when you know reddit drones will buy this regardless of quality, regardless of anything, when you know 100% beyond any shadow of a doubt that it's selling several million copies which will shock ZERO PEOPLE, not allowing preorders means literally every other single game on any online shop suffers, of course it's not equal.

They sprung the game a few weeks ago, knew it would break storefronts and whoever is responsible decided to let it happen even though this is exactly why "pre-orders" exist, it's an order you will already 100% make, it's like having a restaurant with 50 staff. Can they handle a normal dinner service? Of course. Can they handle 10 million orders all at once? No of course not. Someone dropped a ball in a very dumb fashion here.

FUCKING CHERRY REEEEEEEEEE

>>719797308
why are you seething about not being able to buy something 0.0000000000000001 seconds after release?
>>
>>719797308
Did they drop the ball? They're known for the next few years as the indie game that broke Steam. The only one ever. That in itself is marketing.

I think no pre order is fine, I would've surely pre ordered, but now I'm waiting to hear how long it is and decide whether I'll buy it now or later depending on that.

I will not be buying nor playing Silksong, but it was very good of them to do shit this way.
>>
>>719797581

I'm not going to buy a game I don't want to play. Just because there are a lot of words there doesn't mean I'm seething.

>>719797607

It's not the only one ever, but even in your delusion, what possible added clout do they need? They have the most ravenous fans, the most devout followers that dismiss any criticism of the game as heresy. Do you really think they need additional marketing to sell their already $20 game when people would have gladly paid $40? This isn't about marketing, have you been hiding away from any gaming media the last 6 years? It's Sriracha all over again, it's in no commercial, but it was on every table and a craze (no longer so since the pepper war, but that's another topic)

PSN is up and running just fine, I'm downloading and browsing other stuff while I wait. But Silksong doesn't even fucking exist on the page anymroe besides an official announcement saying it's available to buy. It isn't. Cheeky fucking aussies.

Fucking BASED! At least I can rest easy knowing Snoys and toddlers share my suffering.

Pre-orders are one thing, it didn't even have a page on the eshop until the moment it released. Searching "Silksong" brought up no results, even though literal who games months from release have pages up.
>>
>>719796717
this kind of whining comes off like woman upset the woman next to her is too pretty
I'm not buying it but this weird pseudo backlash is so effeminate and gay its actually very weird.
>>
>>719800017
it's /v/, every single game without exception is dogshit and flops.
Coming to /v/ the day a major game releases is just foolish, which says a lot about both of us since we're here.
>>
>>719796949
It's only cancer if there are preorder bonuses, which is something they could have easily left out instead of virtue signalling.

Words mean nothing anymore. Just string something together whatever jewtuber of your choice told you to think and you're set.
I love this future.

Awesome
>Will be used as a stick to beat other devs with
If you don’t want to get beat make better games, that’s how things should work.
>Didn’t allow preorders, precisely because they knew it would
Wouldn’t you?
Here’s one more fact:
>OP is a massive cock guzzling fag
I don’t even care about this game but you should kill yourself, do you even read what you post? The next generation of trolls, oops sorry, “rage baiters”, is weak as fuck.
