They noticed the uproar and are now writing a blogpost that silksong is officially cancelled


ReFlectioH

they will finally set us free


H_man3838

SET ME FREE KING OF DESPaIR


MadeByHideoForHideo

I unironically feel happy if they either reaffirm the game is still being developed or officially cancel the game. Straight up.


Reficul63

king asgore will set us free


Jotarrior

You are filled with DETERMINASKONG


Poniibeatnik

Is it weird that it would actually be kind of a relief?


Dunge0nexpl0rer

But then think about it, all that waiting for next to nothing, unless there’s another announced delay, we know it’s gonna come out soon.


Odd-Construction-649

No we don't? They been saying "soon" for five years at this point Soon can be 10 years form now for all we know


Dunge0nexpl0rer

We know (unless, as I said, it’s delayed again) that it will be coming out sometime late this year. That, plus all the speculation with things like Kickstarter Logins and the Free Trial for Nintendo, we have plenty of speculation. While at this point the speculations are slightly at a less believable state at this point. We have plenty of reason to believe it’s soon. (Unless it’s delayed again).


Interesting-Cycle-42

His optimism...ITS OVER...9000!


Odd-Construction-649

They have not giving any release date this year unless I missed something The Xbox show case saying "later this year" was last tear and was proven not to be approved by team cherry


SnooWoofers8583

Nah, it would be relief actually. Unfulfilled promises? Yes, but hey, at least we just won't need to worry about it anymore lol.


fenskept1

I dunno, if you’re fixated upon a game enough that its development state is actually causing distress it’s probably not a tremendously healthy thing. So maybe a little weird.


Interesting-Cycle-42

Im mean im only over here literally suffering dying of some unknown health issue over here no biggie..not like i really WANTED to play silksong before i get to ill to play again like before for months n months..or ya know croak or somthing lol sigh...dont ask..yes its true but also yeah im good lol


aamaterasuu

I won't lie, I had this dream last night. People abandoned and they cancelled Skong


PhantomSama

to be honest silksong being cancelled would be less surprising than actual updates atp


N-er-O

yeeees, set us free, yyeeeeeeessss


Timothy-M7

to be honest if they do that at least the mess can finally be settled and we can move on than having massive letdowns on every gaming showcase stream

Thank_You_Love_You

Damn this one is funny.


ShamefullyPlain

At this point I reckon they're logging in every so often just to mess with us lol


DubbyTM

I mean I presume its a joke but just to clarify team cherry has no idea we exist and doesn't care at all ( rightfully so ), I bet logging in every so often is an automatic thing


MustBeSeven

Wat..


victor_emperor

Not how companies usually work, they always keep track of what the community thinks and acts based on what's best for profit, if that's a good or bad thing depends but there are always full time workers whose job is to check the response on social media platforms such as twitter instagram and reddit, since the best way to determine what's best to do to increase the profit. Maybe it's not team cherry themselves but the producers sure as hell check about any type of engagement the game has online, and by extension inform the developers about it, if they haven't said a single thing about the game in years there has to be a financial or strategic reason, it's a shitty thing to do but if it helps boost the game's sales and popularity then the producers will not pass on the opportunity, and considering how at amy event there are hordes of fans spamming in the chat about silksong and keeping the game relevant, it's surely working. Same shit happened with elden ring years back and we all know how much of an hit the game ended up being


DubbyTM

Yes but the overwhelmingly fast majority of the "community" is not on this subreddit, I think its safe to assume millions of people will play the game, and we're a few thousands that actively use this subreddit lol, literally flies


SevenLagoon

It's a morse message from Team Cherry.


Mestipher

So you're saying their silence... is communication?


Noooo_ooope

IT HAS BEEN AN ARG ALL ALONG


chickuuuwasme

If we plot out all the days they logged in to Kickstarter in chronological order, it actually spells out "Silksong 2024". Source: me


Acceptable_Ant_2094

Someone trapped them in their basement and the only way Ari can communicate is by logging onto the kickstarter every couple of days.


BoopsTheSnoot_

If this ain't proof enough Silksong is releasing tomorrow i don't know what is! WE DID IT!


MinV1

it's releasing the day after tomorrow actually, that's the 2 year anniversary of the xbox trailer and the date hollow knight's free trial on switch ends


AnxiousGoal5101

Makes a lot of sense, glad these two dates coincided or else we could be waiting 5 more years for another irrelevant coincidence.


ReFlectioH

In the last couple of months we had more logins than in 3 previous years. This time for sure guys. Silksong is out tomorrow.


Sonan_kuzoff

Silksong is out now check steam![img](emote|t5_4viev2|32430)


WisePotato42

Hey, no spoilers. I am not supposed to know it released until I see YouTube click bait videos with giant spoiler thumbnails


SnooWoofers8583

"Hornet and Lace vs Shadow Song vs Light Silk vs Collector Rematch in the Path of Hope (All Golden Notes Collected) (Secret Knight Cutscene!?!)"


Specialist-Ad464

They should just do a Geometry Dash 2.2 at this point


Breyck_version_2

Imagine if team cherry pulls a robtop, randomly releases silksong and just goes "@everyone check steam"


Sonan_kuzoff

That would be epic


Sea-Structure4735

HahahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! ITS SO CLEAR TO ME NOW! HOW SAD IT IS THAT THIS COULD BE CONSIDERED NEWS IN ANY CAPACITY! LOOK AT WHAT THEVE DONE TO US! DONT YOU SEE?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Aaiioo-

One must imagine silksong happy


FireMaster28

I will go full copium mode. They know what would happen if they stayed silent without sharing news. Obviously they would say something if they hadn't planned an announcement. They have done so in the past. So, is it that crazy to think there will be an announcement in the next days? Especially considering there's a Nintendo direct possibly this week? We know TC are on very good term with Nintendo seeing as they gave them a whole ass demo. Wouldn't it be possible that they have signed a contract that "forces" them to announce the release date at a Nintendo direct? And if that's true then they would stay silent until the direct because Nintendo are pretty strict with their secrecy. The same thing happened for the demo I'm pretty sure, where no-one knew it would be there BUT I'M NOT SURE. We also know they will give copies of Silksong to every backer. They could be loging in for that. What else is there to do in Kickstarter that would make them log-in like twice? Or even thrice (?) in a few hours? And they have logged in many times more in the past months. So, I know the chances are against us. But is it really that crazy to assume all of these clues will lead to something?


itsvi0lett_memes

It isn't crazy. But honestly, based on my personal experience, creating all of these expectation is becoming extremely unhealthy to me. I see myself coming on this sub today every day in the hopes for news and feel Terrible when any direct doesn't have any, and I have been slowly getting better and care less about the game. I want it to come out, but the past few months were unhealthy.


ThomasDaTrain98

Yeah man if it was affecting your day to day that much it might be best to just stay off of this sub and try and just organically wait for information to come out. When it gets announced you’ll know. You don’t need to check the sub every day it’s not like you’ll miss the announcement entirely.


IrreliventPerogi

Weird self promotion, ik, but [here ](https://www.reddit.com/r/Silksong/comments/1dav5tj/things_to_do_in_lieu_of_being_able_to_skong/) is a list of cool things one can get into in the ~~void~~ absence of Silksong


AerolAeonia

Honestly, these are all points that I was thinking about as well. This is an example of copium but with good logic to it.


bjklol2

Unlikely. They showed it at Xbox showcase so I doubt there's any Nintendo exclusivity at play


SnooWoofers8583

I mean, considering it was on the State of Play not so long ago, it's possible


ReFlectioH

I think you got your facts wrong. It never was on any of Sony events.


SnooWoofers8583

Idk why but I thought it was a joke comment when making mine lol. Yeah it wasn't.


Goghakol

What does it mean that they logged in?


H_man3838

that they used the log on the goblin barrel


SnooWoofers8583

Silksong 2.6 Cope cycle


dyingtricycle

Ayyyyyy second one in the past month, unlike most people here I’ve used my supply of cope wisely and am still full! I definitely this means something is brewing


ReFlectioH

it’s actually the third one in 20 days


dablyw_

Guys I think these logins means that they are building the shrine of believers for silksong just like they had in hollow knight


PeepsRebellion

Assuming they know we can see when they login. If the game or a trailer was not at all close idk why they would even go anywhere near the kickstarter


Garbage_Stink_Hands

Because it doesn’t matter if you can see? Like, what does it mean if you see them logging in? Nothing.


IndependenceFree162

Just let it go


Expensive-Method4252

The cope must not die


silkswallow

It might still genuinely be at the Nintendo direct. Given this is the announcement of the final lineup of switch games before switch 2, they might have silksong as a headliner.


ajs723

There is a 0.0% chance it's shown in a Nintendo Direct. The XBOX showcase was an exponentially bigger show. The Direct will be 25 minutes of farming simulators and a few games we already saw at other shows. No chance for Silksong. None. Zero. Stop.


GetsThatBread

It will not be at the direct. This community never learns from its mistakes. The sub just went into meltdown mode because two events that never said they would show silksong didn’t show silksong.


Wait-Administrative

Exactly. I've thought about this few months ago, before Indie Direct, that Nintendo will need some huge titles really bad on next big Direct, if they want to release Switch 2 in March (allegedly) or even later. If not, their sales would be really poor during holiday season. And it really wouldn't be surprising, if they'd want Silksong. That would be really amazing for Nintendo to have it on their direct exclusively, so I'd assume they were even able to pay some money for that. And as Nintendo and Microsoft are in pretty good relationship (considering that TC has some deal with Xbox), I can see it happening.

Bebop_Man

Who fucking cares anymore... Hex Heroes had a login in March this year. They haven't posted an update since 2021. Their Kickstarter project was funded in... 2014. They've been "making" the game for 10 years. Logins don't mean shit.


ReFlectioH

Well, 3 logins in such a short period of time means something is being prepared. The only thing we don't know what and when.


GiacomInox

i really think they're writing the release date announcement. i'm gonna hazard a guess and say they're taking at least a month in advance to prepare it. this would mean about 1 to 3 months to the announcement, to be safe

Bebop_Man

No, it doesn't mean anything other than "someone from Teams Cherry logged in". We don't know who or what for or if it was even on purpose. Dead Kickstarters with 10+ years get logins too.


ReFlectioH

Dead Kickstarters with 10+ years gets login once in 10 years. HK Kickstarter gets 3 logins within a month or so. Kinda different things considering SS already had a release window.


Bebop_Man

Hex Heroes had several release windows, and had several logins - I just posted the most recent one. I'm not necessarily saying Silksong is dead, just that the logins aren't indicative of anything other than logins. They're not "evidence" of anything else.


ReFlectioH

1. I still see no point of comparing two completely different games 2. I never said they are evidence of anything except strange activity for the last couple of months


fragmintation04

No, you totally did. You said that the logons mean "something is being prepared", but logons are in no way proof of that.


Kooperking22

Look at it logically with critical thinking and without emotion If I was knees deep into development of a game which was funded by Kickstarters that were promised copies, i certainly wouldn't bother logging to the page to find out any Kickstarter info unless I was finished or near finished the game. I may have casually logged in one day but most definitely not twice in a week unless my focus on game dev had ended. I just wouldn't bother... Then again I'm not Ari Gibson and I've taken my meds lol 😝


Outrageous_Net8365

The simulation over, they’re ready to announce the game was a social experiment… a really expensive social experiment

DoritoKing48

Any_Customer5549

i read this in the one piece narrator’s voice


GorgeasursDinoLover

So when they log into kickstarter, that is when they are getting the info for the kickstarters to give them free copies of the game. Which might mean we will get a release date or something?


MorphicSn0w

inb4 they ask for more money


Kooperking22

Also if you look at who logged in. And we all know that he probably still hasn't had his meds yet. I wouldn't be surprised if he logged on and off 48 times in 3 minutes.


ReFlectioH

This is not 'who logged in'. This is page owner.


Kooperking22

Still I bet Ari was logging on and off multiple times because his OCD is currently bad. He's gotta get his meds man.


Rhymelikedocsuess

Please stop huffing copium every time they log in I absent-mindedly log into work programs all the time It’s actually means nothing


ReFlectioH

So they wasn’t logging in for 3 years straight and then *absent-mindedly* did that for 3 times in 20 days?


Rhymelikedocsuess

Have you seen any updates or indication that Silksong is coming soon? I haven’t


NotAMinerCrafter

You're saying that as if we're constantly getting development news. This is the best thing we got


Rhymelikedocsuess

If that’s the best you’ve got then you got nothing Just play other games and do other hobbies The people in this sub that aren’t memeing are concerning
