I’M SKONG POSTING!
DOOD, SILKSONGARINO I’M GOING CRAZY WAITING FOR THE GAME
epic quirk chungus Reddit humor!

>game comes out. Everyone moves on in less than 6 months. No lasting impact.

What the fuck was up with this game’s faggot fanbase acting like this? Dark souls but bugs. Wow, great.
>>
>>738170986
I enjoyed it though. I'm still enjoying it
>>
>>738171073
Is there actually that much content in the game, counting replays, or are you someone that can squeeze blood from stone?
Not hating, I can do this for games I really like too. Just curious.
>>
>>738171115
>or are you someone that can squeeze blood from stone?
That one. Growing up I didn't get a lot of games so I find a lot of enjoyment digging into each game several times. Honestly if a game can't keep my attention for more than 2 playthroughs then I consider it a dud.
>>
>muh lasting impact
viral-slurping FOMOfaggots don't get to post their opinions about cultural impact
>Dark souls but bugs
literal gaming journo tier lmao

if this was meant to be bait to get a legit thread going then 10/10 made me reply
>>
>>738171274
Lasting impact might’ve been the wrong term. Everyone just moved on so quickly feels like it was a flash in the pan compared to the first tho
>>
>>738170986
HK and Silksong are literally some of the most impactful games in the past decade.
>>
>>738171115
Not him, but it's very satisfying to get good at a well designed action game.

You're probably the type of person that treats video games as movies/tv shows, follows youtube guides and then moves on after rolling credits. We are not the same.
>>
>>738171446
I don’t follow guides, and I just said earlier I can linger on games like the other anon.
This game just isn’t that interesting. It in no way followed up on its hype or the sequel’s success.
Came and went.
>>
>>738171379
>Everyone just moved on
such is life
consider not giving a shit about what cunts on twitter are doing, being out of touch out of time is great for enjoying things at your own pace
there's also an UHM AYCKSHUALLY gotcha about vague feelings of supposed cultural presence being unquantifiable, so i might say that silksong is in fact bigger and it is you who are wrong (but i won't cause that's retarded and also i don't know)
>>
>>738171546
Ah, so you're the same baiting retard as >>738171274? Nvm then, carry on
>>
>>738170986
>>game comes out. Everyone moves on in less than 6 months. No lasting impact.
so, like every game ever

what the fuck is wrong with you tortanic-chasing troglodytes
singleplayer games come out, people play them, they talk about them, then they stop and play the next game. It's not live-service slop this is how the cycle is supposed to work.
>>
Why play a game if you aren't being social on /V/ about it???
>>
Yeah nobody's playing it at all right now, what a flop
You need a million concurrent players and constant generals for your single-player Metroidvania or it's just not relevant
It's no Counter Strike 2, that's for sure
Oh my God beat off into this cup so I can drink your hate paste, daddy
Nnnnnnnnmnmngh

Skong bros…ASSEMBLE! DOWNVOTES AHOY!!! XD

The lasting impact is me waiting patiently for the DLC so I can do another playthrough.
>>
>>738171995
I'm sure it will be ready in another 8 years
>>
>>738170986
Are you okay, Anon?
>>
>>738171115
usually i would do this on strategy game like frostpunk. Achievement hunting, skill limit testing whatnot
>>
>>738171073
And? No one gives a shit about you specifically, because you are no one. Where are the masses? Oh, that's right, nowhere. All the HK fans, all the supposed SS fans, and all the normies are gone. HK would have multiple threads daily up until SS released. Now even HK threads are dead thanks to SS being such a massive disappoint. Only Dragon's Dogma was hit harder by its terrible sequel's release. Even controversial games like DS2, FF8, etc didn't impact their respective series as badly.
>>
>>738171726
>barely beating HK
What an embarrassment.
>>
>>738172523
To be fair, HK has insane modding scene that's still active that Skong hasn't caught up to yet. The randomizer's in progress still currently and I think it'll get a minor bump ocne that's at least ready to go.

Relax, faggot. They got the game they wanted and that's it. Why are YOU upset?

Is this not how God inteded games to be? They were never supposed to become a replacement for your personality
>>
Damn, gacha and live service games have done a number on people's brains.
>>
>>738172713
yes they're just stupid electronic toys
not even children make a single toy their personality, right?

Wow bros what the fuck, gaming is FINISHING. The state of video games is grim. Sking skong bros ono nononono
>>
Well at any rate I think I'm going to replay the game this summer just so I can finally get the cheevo for collecting all tools
>>
E33 mogs this pajeet indie slop.
>>
>>738171115
The game is like 100 hours long on your first completionist playthrough. If you really like the game I can see spending another 200 hours either on replays every couple of months, or on speedrunning/challenge runs.

It took me longer to beat the second Savage Beastfly fight than it did to beat Lost Lace...

Motherfucker, Silksong was voted here as the best game of 2026 both on the Vidya Gaem Awards and the other yearly poll. The reason people don't want more threads (on top of the fact it's been 8 months) it's because they get swarmed by sore schizos every time.

Yes

Literally who?
>>
>>738171806
You have to wonder if this image is fully meant to be taken at face value everytime it's posted and is not just someone strawmanning tendies.
>>
>>738175304
It's obviously bait and not particularly well made, either
>>
>>738175304
Either every tendie on this board is a baiting shitposter or they really do think like this
>>
>>738170986
It got beaten out in cultural relevance by E33
>>
Can we just take a minute to appreciate how Silksong killed all indie games forever with its low price? Literally starving out the children of indie devs
>>
>>738171726
HK has more players

People point to Hollow Knight's numbers being a bit higher as some kind of own. But there is nothing odd about it at all.
Silksong consistently had way higher numbers than Hollow Knight since its release. And that included plenty of people who had never even played Hollow Knight.
But now? Now, you've got people who've just played Silksong moving to play Hollow Knight afterwards. Be it people playing Hollow Knight for the first time or people simply wishing to replay it. Since they've just played Silksong.
Just like people who've just played Hollow Knight, but haven't played Silksong, have a strong tendency to move on to play Silksong.

This is part of why the player numbers do and can be expected to swing back and forth between the sequel and the prequel.
But also. As has been pointed out countless of times in the thread. They're also single-player games. The numbers in total can also be expected to go down. And there is nothing odd about that.

The Metroid Prime 4 thread is down the catal- oh wait...
