After this drought of content, I'm glad to see a lot of promising trailers. (i.imgur.com)

PSA: Trailers are made to look amazing. The actual gameplay is the most important content when judging if a game is worth following. But even gameplay can and has been removed or changed before a videogame is released. But most importantly...

DO NOT BUY PRE-ORDERS OR FIRST DAY BUYS!! The videogame industry has shown time and time again that they "will have to patch the game AFTER the game release, to actually make it a full and functional videogame" Give it time. You might just save yourself a headache and the loss of $40-$70.

I didn't even realize this was about games and not movies

Both apply.

you say this, and warn me, and spook me. But the moment Silksong is up for pre-order I'm lossing my money.

If silksong is bad, I’m legitimately going to have an existential crisis.

My hopes aren't as high. But the amount of time they spent (and will) cooking that game, it better deliver.

Time doesn't equal quality.

hater. Or something. idk. just give me silksong already

Just don't be surprised when it sucks and fails to live up to HK. A good sequel in 2023 is like a good STD. Purely theoretical.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

well it's a good thing that it probably won't release in 2023 then. It's safe to say that I'll be telling the legend of Silksong to my grandchildren

I feel you, I haven't gotten more a couple minutes of teaser trailer which showed nothing of importance to a game franchise that hasn't had an entry in seven years.

Just sitting here hoping I'll see the day it comes out lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

thankfully I don't have many games like that. But everyone can feel this pain.

I wanted to copy a quote about how waiting is actually good, but you get the Idea. Let's hope it's like wine

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

I hope so, I didn't really enjoy hollow knight because I'm not one for the souls-isj gameplay loop but it was a damn good looking game with an excellent OST and I hope the sequel is good for the people who do enjoy it.

If you don't learn from others' mistakes, you are bound to make the same mistakes yourself.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

Literally, silksong is the exception for me. I will do anything for that game.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

I'm pre ordering Haunted Chocolatier if that's an option, I'm sure even if it's not amazing it's still going to be pretty good.

Cries in KOTOR

Context please? :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

I dunno about the trailers, but I've been super-impressed by the live-action One Piece remake...

Do you have the template OP?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Of course I do.
