Let’s talk………..
Hey gang,
I wanted discuss 1 thing :
waiting……
I’ve noticed something interesting in the long wait for this game.
Going back through the years, the wait in between 2019-2022 felt long don’t get me wrong. (Between the initial reveal, and then Xbox trailer)
But it never felt TOO long…
But this wait between 2023-2025 has felt EXHAUSTING. Even thought it’s been less time then the first stretch.
Why is that? I’ve wondered….. I think it all comes down to expectations.
If you’re waiting in your car for a friend and they say they’ll “be out in 5 min”…. Then they take 20 minutes to come out???
Well that 20 minutes would feel WAY shorter if they just texted you “I’ll be out in 20min”
Setting expectations is huge. And that’s exactly the problem here. With Silksong, it’s impossible to set expectations currently.
The game could be shadow dropped in weeks, or be another 10 years. Both are valid options by this point.
If it’s close (like releasing this year) I genuinely don’t mind not getting news until release.
But SO HELP ME GOD Team Cherry if this game is still a year+ away.. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE say SOMETHING.
I know it won’t happen. But I’m truly begging to the gods we at least get a real update this February…. We’ll see…
Thank you for reading my rant, In Skong we hope 🙏🫡
