Can someone explain why Silksong became a massive meme? I didn't think Hollow Knight was THAT popular.
Autists forced it and the normies latched onto it just because it's popular.
Its 2d souls shit with a non-human protagonist so it so furries shill it for free
>>719817320i don't know, i never played hollow knight as it looked like every other indie game and i didn't care
it's a 2d platformer with dark souls elements, it's the lowest common denominator thing right now. plus hype from autistic obsessions
>>719817320Fanbase of zoomtroons engaged in a viral marketing campaign without receiving payment (without receiving payment, hmm... remind you of anyone?)

>>719817320it became a meme that every game announcement / news would be silksong, to the point where people who have never touched hollow knight were 'anticipating' it, kinda like skate 4 (before that was announced too)anyway basically its popularity is because of a meme, you can also tell this because 75% of all hollow knight players played the game within the past 2 weeks
i just can't get over the fact devs just got a massive paycheck for being absolutely incompetent instead of getting pushback for taking so fucking long
Look up the word stan.It's fake hype spammed by obsessive autists.
>>719817320just another shill campaign
>>719818097why is Charlie Brown doing impressions of One Piece characters.
Hollow Knight sold 15 million copies and Silksong has been vaporwave for more than half a decade.

reddit infiltration
>>719817320Dunno really. I tried hollow knight but it was pretty mediocre game and suffered heavily from visuals where it was hard to tell apart foreground, background and hazards.
>>719817320Elusive Duke Nukem Forever type release date. Lasting fan art presence thanks to memorable, cute, visually simple characters. Lore autism for yt essayists. HK is one of the best, and biggest metroidvanias. The size really matters, it's why Elder Scrolls gets away with a lot of shit. It elevates it from a simple quest to a grand adventure.Base HK had a tough true ending, which is a formative gaming experience, think Hell in Cave Story. Later added even harder content for challenger type of players.Cheap.
>>719817320It's like HL3If it ever came out (lol) people would sperg endlessly
>>719820932>memorable, cute, visually simple charactersThis is always a codeword for gay shit that autists jerk off to
>>719817320It's Sonic for today's gay zoomers
>>719821164which one of the 5 words separated by two commas is the codeword
>>719817320Im not sure but you can be industry analysts are gonna be looking at what happened with this game for a long time and try to figure out how to clone the hype generated by a bunch of people posting the main character with a clown wig every single time there's a major gaming conference.Silksong's all-time peak is like 6 times the peak of the original and still rising and it's only had like 3 or 4 trailers ever.
>>719817320The game was effectively vaporware since it was announcedIt's effectively the autist's version of the "We had X before GTA VI" meme except the game actually came out
>>719821321All of them, autist
