whaaaats the deaaaal with airline food?

cerulean sable
#

airline food cant even deny teleporters with grenade launchers i dont know why it would even be capable of hitting rail guns with quad damage even

proud vale
#

Umai!

#

Also I didn’t know the food discussion was gonna carry on to today goddamn

#

Also wtf chat is DEAD

#

I think airline food might be a conversation which kills chat

omg wait i didn't know Graig had a wife and 3 kids

#

I think Hornet notices you a lot in Hollow Knight

#

I thought that name change was referencing Graig being a wife and having 3 kids

#

You also fight her twice

Where can i download this hollow knight skin?

cerulean sable
#

talked about waning interest for waiting for so long too

pallid flare
cerulean sable
#

points on being that wait is good to get you more invested but waiting for too long, eventually people will move on to something else

#

not to pressure TC i mean its a fucking 4-ish man project so 2 years of wait isnt that long tbh

#

unlike the afformentioned books which has been up to air for a decade

#

but it still falls under the "its the authors work, its their choice"

proud vale
#

Just the lack of transparency is a little borderline sometimes to be frank

viscid ore
pallid flare
cerulean sable
#

yeah i get you

#

like i understand shit takes work

#

and i dont like people who constantly ask for SS news then get pissed of whenever theres a major event without news

#

but i get it would ease of (tho not completely eliminate) to acknowledge youre still active even if nots a blog post

#

again at the end if TC doesnt wanna expose themselves to the public so they can focus on their own shit then i get them

proud vale
#

Yeah like I understand also, but you gotta commit to a date at some point otherwise the fan base is certainly gonna dwindle

cerulean sable
#

yeah defo

#

your fans can only wait so much until they move onto the next thing

cerulean sable
#

HK is a little advantaged given that its setting is unique, i dont expect any other upcoming bug based kingdom coming out soon and the artstyle carries it

#

but like, EVENTUALLY the fans will get tired and move on

#

granted i dont think SS is gonna reach that point thats so long that people wont care anymore

#

but for other medias it can definitely happen

proud vale
#

No, the only real competitor is crowsworn at the moment but that’s not to say more m-vanias won’t pop up

cerulean sable
#

Like back then i was super hyper into Dark Souls, when 3 came out i listened to the entire OST non stop despite not playing it

fastforward today, Elden Ring got announced and my reaction was more or less "oh cool i might try it on release, who knows"

#

yeah

proud vale
#

For sure. To talk about crowsworn again, I do really like the amount of community engagement they have

fleet temple
cursive jetty
cerulean sable
#

i really disagree with that particular take, i think it was a good way to show that the thing is going to be huge, just that they needed to clause that the game is still very early

#

and yeah because of the kickstarter

#

people would throw the same shit about a DLC taking too long

fleet temple
#

I mean either way they kinda had to handicap themselves

proud vale
#

Yeah true, they kind of gave false expectations with how much they showed in the trailer despite how seemingly young in development it was

fleet temple
#

feel like they probably could've softened the blow by stating more that it is still early on

cerulean sable
#

yeah because most of the assumption that it wont take long anymore was on the basis of "it looks finished already"

cursive jetty
#

I think Nintendo stating it's coming soon played a big part in hyping people too early

fleet temple
#

that and the frequent blogposts

coarse leaf
cerulean sable
#

i personally never took the soon clause as some indication, as for me TBD and Soon etc could relatively be next month up until the next few years

#

my basis went more on counting the original HK release as the actual development of HK, and come to think of it i dont think they will effectively juggle both while they were busy with bug fixing and HK DLCs

fleet temple
coarse leaf
cerulean sable
#

shouldve gone TBD

fleet temple
#

the issue wasn't the silence, the issue was the massive amount of news at the start, and then just stopping without any explanation

cursive jetty
cerulean sable
#

yeah, i always saw the trailer as a proof of concept that your kickstarter money isnt just some grand laundering scheme, these days at least

coarse leaf
#

wasn't hk enough for that lol

fleet temple
#

still looks fantastic obviously

cerulean sable
#

like if youve seen the deep docks screenshots, theres the inclusion of scorchmarks on the textures now

#

which wasnt there before

hushed wasp
#

What is a silk song

proud vale
#

Yeah look I mean TC definitely suceeded in making a super hype trailer, it's just unfortunate that it probably wasn't that indicative of progress. But ugh what can you do

hushed wasp
#

i dont even want the game to release
i just want an update

copper knot
#

silkno

hushed wasp
#

even if its small

frozen bloom
#

Milksong better

cerulean sable
#

it wouldve been more hype if it was just 20 seconds of silence before a giant title dropping "SILKSONG" /s

fleet temple
opaque sigil
#

A trailer isn't an indicator of progress, its sole purpose is to get attention

frozen bloom
#

Its like an announcement advertisement

proud vale
#

Of course but it's still something you can glean from the trailer

frozen bloom
#

Agreed

opaque sigil
#

Is it? Trailers are never indicative of the general completion of the game, because the people who make the trailer pick the most finished looking parts (and even then some parts of the SS trailer looked pretty unfinished)

frozen bloom
#

Also a lot of the stuff are subjective to change

torn nacelle
#

in my opinion they should have shown a teaser trailer, not a full trailer like that with gameplay and "cinematics"

frozen bloom
#

Then it wouldnt feel like its hollow knight
Maybe they wanted to keep aesthetic of hk

opaque sigil
#

Not sure I really follow that line of thinking tbh, I imagine a teaser about a Hornet game would imply a somewhat similar aesthetic to HK (although overall SS is actually pretty different)

#

It's much brighter and more diverse, as well as more dynamic in setting, visually

#

HK was very dim, often a tad monotonous, and much more static

frozen bloom
#

Gives off that pale and blue feeling

#

Ss is mostly greenish and red

opaque sigil
#

Yeah, HK leaned more into the blues and purples

frozen bloom
#

Cheerful in a way

opaque sigil
#

Yeah, Pharloom is a more "alive" place, and the setting design conveys that quite effectively

frozen bloom
#

Really saturated colors are in ss

#

I wanna see a secret room in ss filled with that orange infection

opaque sigil
#

While that might be interesting, I doubt it'll happen.

#

Plus it'd be pretty concerning notlikequirrel

frozen bloom
#

Tbh the only thing im excited about 2022 is silksong lol

#

Nothing else yet

opaque sigil
#

2022 has a number of games

frozen bloom
#

Like?

formal karma
#

good thing 2022 isn't confirmed for SS

formal karma
frozen bloom
#

I dont want cherry to rush the game and make it cyberpunk

formal karma
#

well that wont happen either

opaque sigil
#

Well, botw2 (presumably, iirc they said something about that) and a number of other assorted games on my wishlist

formal karma
#

cyberpunk has completely warped everyone's minds.... that's not an apt comparison

opaque sigil
#

Yeah, cyberpunk is kind of a nightmare situation that you just don't really get when devs don't have inordinate pressure to release early

frozen bloom
#

I like the idea and setting but the thing is there a lot number of hardlock glitches in there thats the problem

formal karma
#

that's a publisher thing, not a dev thing

frozen bloom
#

Oh

formal karma
#

exactly why we should be happy nintendo has no pull over TC

frozen bloom
#

Bye peeps
Nice talk

formal karma
#

cya

opaque sigil
formal karma
#

after all, SS is coming soon (circa 2019)

opaque sigil
#

I honestly think that was just a slip of the tongue from the host, idt that was the official nintendo stance

formal karma
#

true, but still its funny

opaque sigil
#

I mean maybe but it's a bit annoying when people cite that as how nintendo's been misrepresenting the situation tamershrug

wind rover
opaque sigil
#

Well bells, ofc, idk about whistles omegamarmu

formal karma
#

what does that even mean?

frozen bloom
#

I like bells

wind rover
#

I legit think theres a good chance we've got like 15 years of waiting ahead of us

formal karma
#

well that's silly

#

literally no one in the world would do that

frozen bloom
opaque sigil
#

I mean it's been, what, 38 months since godmaster released?

formal karma
frozen bloom
#

Imagine

wind rover
opaque sigil
#

That's an outlier

formal karma
#

was it even being developed for 15 years?

wind rover
#

About

#

Like... As a general rule, no news is always bad news

formal karma
#

nah

opaque sigil
#

For a team the size of TC, constant news would be a bit more concerning

#

And at this point we're well beyond the realm of "no news"

wind rover
opaque sigil
#

That's simply not true

formal karma
#

ah yes, diligently creating their game means its on fire...

wind rover
opaque sigil
#

That's absurd

proud vale
#

In response to you before Tammo, I know trailers aren't meant to be indicative of general completion, but it's simply an unintended consequence that people will make judgements about completion from trailers

opaque sigil
#

Well maybe, but they shouldn't

proud vale
#

It's just one of those things that shouldn't be, but just are

#

Or at least, is taken by the public as so

formal karma
#

i like how random the masks are and everyone is all "looks done"

opaque sigil
opaque sigil
#

Plus a lot of the scenes that only showed up for a few moments in the trailer were pretty telling, like the citadel knight arena

proud vale
#

Telling of what

opaque sigil
#

Does this look done zote

formal karma
#

citadel = endgame, therefore game done

proud vale
#

So you're telling me I should have experience in game design and development so I can tell that it's not done ?

formal karma
#

we're talking about 'people' the dumb panicky beasts that make no sense

proud vale
#

That looks pretty finished to the layman tbh

opaque sigil
#

I mean compare it to boss arenas from HK, they were almost always much more interesting than that

formal karma
#

a 'person' can be smart and reasonable but 'people'? forget about it

wind rover
#

I seriously think that if they had even enough shit finished they could take one screenshot that wouldn't immediately make team cherry the laughing stock of the games industry, kill this game before it was even out, and cause people to look at the first game as at best something that should've failed but somehow turned out playable, itd be shown, hell sonic 06 actually was a game that'd do all that to a dev and it had a new trailer every few weeks

proud vale
opaque sigil
#

The lighting, sure, but look at the BG

formal karma
wind rover
proud vale
#

The lighting, the fact that you can't actually see the edges of the arena (as in the camera isn't locked) and also the beautiful backgrounds

opaque sigil
#

The background is nice but it's just so empty

formal karma
opaque sigil
#

idk, it just strikes me as a placeholder tamershrug

wind rover
formal karma
#

congradulations, you're to 1,000,000th silknever jokster

wind rover
#

No Im serious

proud vale
#

Well an opinion like that seems to be held by the minority, as it seems alot of people have expectations for release by now (possibly because of the trailer)

wind rover
#

This thing will take a duke nukem forever amount of time

formal karma
#

well, don't be

opaque sigil
#

Do you ever just watch the old HK trailers and think about how much better of a game HK was than its early trailers made it out to be? ik SS may not have such a huge difference in that regard, but still

formal karma
#

never thought about that tammo...

opaque sigil
#

Like, in the Weird and Wonderful World trailer, combat does not look that great

formal karma
#

i mostly just think about how that spider isn't in HK and hope we get everything SS showed us....

opaque sigil
#

I still think that spider wouldn't work with the artstyle zote

wind rover
formal karma
#

man, this person just never stops with the silknever kneee slappers

opaque sigil
#

You can just ignore them y'know zote

formal karma

opaque sigil

they dirrectly referenced both Cyber and Duke, it's a joke

Seems like it may just have been a pessimist

Oh yeah

Okay Graig now you have to play outer wilds

Silksong testing can take the back burner

#

Why

proud vale
#

Game is goated

formal karma
proud vale
#

Also skill based in multiple places

wind rover
# formal karma mhmm... my b

I did do a chinese democracy reference until I realized nobody whos a gamer listens to music so I started referencing a game

opaque sigil
#

OW isn't that skill based, really. Which is kinda good tbh

coarse leaf
#

I thought that by this point everyone knew Silksong isn't real. It's just a dream that everyone had but no one is willing to give up.

proud vale
ionic schooner
#

What's OW

opaque sigil
#

I mean you totally can get good at it, you just don't need to

#

Outer Wilds

ionic schooner
#

Uh

trim estuary
iron spear
#

It's some 3D game?

uneven orchid
proud vale
#

Yeah a first person space exploration game, uncovering hidden lore

uneven orchid
#

It's definitely worth playing, absolutely incredible story

proud vale
#

I reckon it's the third most popular game on this discord zotewheeze

opaque sigil
#

It handles progression in a very remarkable manner, but it's hard to explain how without spoiling some elements of the game

uneven orchid
#

Yea that's the problem when trying to get people to play it. You can't really say anything about it because it's entirely knowledge based

shell yacht
#

nerds

opaque sigil
proud vale
#

Pretty much yeah, kind of similar to hollow knight in that regard?

#

Oh wait well HK isn't really knowledge based but more you can't really say anything about how the map is interconnected

uneven orchid
#

Eh I wouldn't say so. You can play Hollow Knight without any knowledge of the game and it's lore, where as in Outer Wilds it's essential

opaque sigil
#

It does kinda have the metroidvania vibe, except instead of abilities it's knowledge

trim estuary
proud vale
#

Also Vertigo it's nice to see another booster in ss-disc zote

Oh yeah, some of the aliens were named after HK characters

uneven orchid
#

Holy shit, that's actually awesome

proud vale
#

I know right WTF, also why the collector is so high on the list baffles me

trim estuary
#

Alphabetical order

opaque sigil
#

Alphabetical order doesn't put z before n or c after h and f

trim estuary
#

Yeah it does

coarse leaf
#

Hes truly a genius as his name implies

trim estuary
#

Yup

opaque sigil
#

Well the collector name starts with T but there's still the n and z

#

Plus if it was alphabetical the HK names likely wouldn't be grouped together like that

#

Unless those were all the creature models but I think there were more than that... idk though

proud vale
#

Night friends

cerulean sable
#

people saying the fences in silksong looks similar to the godseeker fences

#

someone said it makes sense because its likely a prequel

#

but the woke idea is if the fences are a connection, then hornet is about to learn more about them vs to not knowing their presence in the pantheons which makes it more sense to be a sequel 😎

opaque sigil
#

Oh this again. They really aren't that similar

cerulean sable
#

yeah i feel like this is just a case of designs being similar due to artstyle

normal hinge
#

it looks like a bell

#

fat bell

coarse leaf
#

i thought silksong was a sequel

cerulean sable
#

damn right and ill fight anyone who thinks otherwise

opaque sigil
#

It probably is

coarse leaf
#

maybe its neither a prequel or sequel

pallid flare
#

midquel

coarse leaf
#

but an alternate timeline

#

or midquel that works too

pallid flare
#

(it actually doesn't)

coarse leaf
#

yes it does noob

pallid flare
#

so you're telling me that hornet was captured between the two fights

cerulean sable
#

the idea of silksong being a midquel by saying that hornet went through pharloom inbetween hornet 1 and 2 is so fucking dumb, like it doesnt even work like that. IMO its either an interquel, sequel or a prequel

#

Silksong is an outerquel, essentially happening before and after Hollow Knight

normal hinge
pallid flare
#

what does any of that even mean

opaque sigil
#

Midquel doesn't work, Hornet's basically always around. There's also the CoT encounter, Abyss after Shade Cloak, Beast's Den, Black Egg

cerulean sable
#

you see, hornet arrives to pharloom, gets her power, goes to hallownest, saves hallownest "depending on the ending" then going back to the pharloom

coarse leaf
#

interquel is midquel with extra steps, thus making it an instaquel

pallid flare
#

whats an interquel or an outerquel

cerulean sable
#

which means the scene at the start of silksong isnt actually THE start of silksong, rather the halfway part where she goes back to hallownest, saves it, then gets kidnapped back

coarse leaf
opaque sigil
#

but idt anybody really argues midquel seriously

glossy gazelle
cerulean sable
#

im joking tammo

#

im literally suggesting HK happens inbetween Silksong

shy kiln
#

How many area names from Siksog do we know?

nimble radish
#

what

opaque sigil
#

Deep Docks, Marrow, Greymoor, Bonebottom

glossy gazelle
#

And Moss Grotto

pallid flare
#

honestly i'd be fine with an alternative universe thing

opaque sigil
#

Sure, alternate universe would be fine ig, but the way the situation is presented is pretty consistent with HK, with the weavers' ancestral home, Hornet's reference to her "usual tools," and her loss of her "traditional strength"

#

Like it really seems as though TC was setting things up to be in the same timeline

silver oak
#

Idk if this has been said already but Razbuten just dropped a video about waiting for Silksong

opaque sigil
#

I don't really care zote

#

Is it worth watching

silver oak
#

I like the channel

opaque sigil
#

But is the video anything interesting

silver oak
#

The way he talks about games is really interesting

opaque sigil
#

Like is there any actual insight about SS

silver oak
#

He kinda uses it to talk about the anticipation for waiting for any title

opaque sigil
#

Maybe I'll watch it if I'm bored or smth tamershrug

silver oak
#

It’s a pretty good representation about what goes on with the community

glossy gazelle
opaque sigil
#

I mean that's not really a challenge

signal crag

because tacco said what it's about

opaque sigil

It's not a new idea

It isn't, beyond having a circle in the center and lines connected to it

agile kelp
#

Hello, may I ask what the topic is?

normal hinge
#

n o thing

agile kelp
#

Seems like the previous convo was talking about disappointment for ss news and the amount of copium the fandom is currently using because of that

glossy gazelle
#

Yeah copium is a common addiction around these parts

cerulean sable
#

time to lift you all into the air then smash you back down

trim estuary
#

ok ssb dedede

trim estuary
opaque sigil
#

I mean it wouldn't be the first time TC used progress instead of time but yeah, it does not take long at all to get from Hornet 1 to CoT, especially since you see her a few times on the way

Funnily enough you can get zotewall in any server, and for just $9.99 a month too! ZoteWall

opaque sigil

But like... no

uneven orchid
#

Agreed, but I'm dumb and waste money

opaque sigil
#

I mean I assume you have the money to waste zote

uneven orchid
#

This is also true

#

Though one could say I should waste my money on better things pepege

pallid flare
#

everything is a waste in the grand scheme of things, do whatever you want with your money, provided you're already kind of stable

opaque sigil

And besides if I was going to get nitro I'd probably get the $5 version anyways

Really? It's so seamless zote

The number of human beings who have sucked part of someone's eyeball through a straw is above 0.

Don’t elderC me

I have more evidence!
TK came from the left because they went to pharloom on the right and walked across the other side of the world to get to the left of Hallownest

marsh ibex
#

assuming that hallowest’s world is round

pallid flare
#

everyone knows that the earth is flat and that hollow knight obviously takes place on the earth

trim estuary
#

No

#

The HK world is like the Hollow Earth

upper sigil
#

assuming the world has a consistent shape

tribal merlin
#

well gravity does seem to exist so from a certain size/weight it'll tend to be more spherical

#

if it's very small it could be flat but wouldn't have gravity

#

gravity to speak of that is

runic adder
#

Applying physics to HK is never a good idea

tribal merlin
#

it's not me that put gravity in there

rapid topaz
#

People going in the far left of Howling Cliffs just falls off the world, that's why they put some wind, to prevent that

tribal merlin
#

it's the unity devs and their physics engine

coarse leaf
#

Anything new aside from updates to HK, have they said anything else about Ss

runic adder
#

Not recently

pallid flare
#

no

tribal merlin
coarse leaf
#

What are they doing? Are they adding new dlc content

runic adder
#

Last news was in December or January, I can’t remember which

tribal merlin
trim estuary
coarse leaf
#

Its already October

runic adder
trim estuary
tribal merlin
#

there probably won't be dlc since they don't have a time constraint and can put everything into release

opaque sigil
#

They've said that they want to move on to another project so I doubt there'll be content updates to HK or SS

runic adder
#

I mean DLC would give the game more life after the release, I could see them adding it but I could also see them not

coarse leaf
#

I remember like months ago seeing a thread saying that the main game is finished, they were just patching some bugs up.

opaque sigil
#

That never happened

Damn people are quick to defend leth

runic adder
pallid flare
opaque sigil
#

We aren't defending Leth grubthink

tribal merlin
opaque sigil
#

It's a matter of fact that his statement doesn't mean what it was alleged to mean

dusty nimbus
#

I would ask Leth if he thinks it's possible that after SS releases we get to know about the development of SS behind the scenes but, Leth hasn't been here in a while

opaque sigil
#

TC teased something like that a while ago

dusty nimbus
#

Ohhhhh

opaque sigil
#

We can’t wait to one day talk about all the wild evolutions to this new world that’ve taken place behind the scenes, but that day’ll have to wait until after the game is out and in your hands.

dusty nimbus
#

This is very interesting

runic adder
#

I’m gonna guess that’ll be interviews and stuff, since they have talked about HK’s development in those

#

Not talking to people on Discord zote

coarse leaf
#

Sorry I meant it as a joke

tribal merlin
#

if you read it carefully you'll see it isn't even about SilkSOng

December 23

tribal merlin
#

probably not

pallid flare
#

maybe, who knows

tribal merlin
#

they can just put everything they want into release

#

and it looks like they're doing just that

hasty oar
#

Yeah ig that’s fair, they have the money to do everything at once now instead of spreading it out like they did for hk

tribal merlin
#

yup

opaque sigil
runic adder
#

Yeah same

hornet is a lesbian

runic adder
#

Imagine if Hornet ends up being straight zote

opaque sigil
#

Or just doesn't have an expressed sexuality zote

runic adder
#

I’ve seen so much Lacenet fan art that Hornet ending up with someone else would feel weird

tribal merlin
#

it's not a dating sim

#

the focus is on exploration and combat

runic adder
tribal merlin
#

having some romance thrown in could easily feel forced

runic adder
#

It could, it could also potentially be done well

tribal merlin
#

I doubt that's the kind of story TC want to tell

#

if anything they may leave multiple hints and not say anything definitive

#

so fans can rip each other's arms off about it for a few years zote

runic adder
#

I don’t see it being the focus of the story of course, but love stories are explored in HK with what’s her name and the mantis, and Cornifer and Iselda

tribal merlin
#

those aren't the main characters

opaque sigil
#

I mean the issue with doing something like that is it'd be hard to manage what occurs and when in a super tight manner

runic adder
#

Yeah that makes sense

opaque sigil
#

If TC can somehow make it work within the constraints necessitated by the sort of game it is, then great, if not, then it'd probably be better off without

runic adder
#

I just think it’s possible, probably not likely but it could work out well

opaque sigil
#

I can't really imagine it but that doesn't mean it couldn't

dusty nimbus
#

Also I can't sleep

opaque sigil
#

That's... not really what the conversation was about

runic adder
#

Well it’s caused by all the Lacenet shipping from others, not my own expectations

#

I do like Lacenet but that’s partially because it makes people mad for dumb reasons

pallid flare
#

chaos are you drunk or what did you try to reply to

dusty nimbus
#

I am clean Pyro

The colourful ones or the camo ones?

I think a mantis/pistol shrimp hybrid boss would be amazing

runic adder
opaque sigil

True

tribal merlin

but sex isn't required to be able to relate to a character
I played my bunch of games with female MCs, read books with female protagonists, never had a problem with identifying with the MC

Random question, what does the original image in your pfp look like?

languid linden

but sex isn't required to be able to relate to a character
This was the first thing I saw in this channel

(I should add I'm a male for it to make sense)

and it'll be the last

languid linden

Indeed, my eyes are already bleached

dusty nimbus

I don't usually identify with the mc of a story but when I do, I get depressed sadgeyes

I really relate to the mc of a game

serene chasm

Gah! Too many kickstarters are coming out

Like, as an lgbtq+ person it always just feels really nice to see representation done well, and it does improve how I see a piece of media

How many times has that image been edited

My guess is at least twice

Oh I thought it was some weird oil painting

quick question, was the February 1st leak ever disproven?

upper sigil
silver oak
#

No
But it was never proven either

glacial wren
#

she told me

tribal merlin
#

wdym disproven? shouldn't it be proven in the first place?

serene chasm
#

The fact that it was changed to June 30th 2021

opaque sigil
#

I mean it was disproven, nvidia said the dates were testing dates and didn't really mean much

tribal merlin
#

like yesterday evening also wasn't disproven

upper sigil
#

i find it pretty weird for ppl to care about that kind of stuff

tribal flint
upper sigil

its a video game character chill about it

The face is still recoginzable

tribal merlin

i am chill about it bc its just a fact

This chat is a mess and I love every bit of it hornetsip

silver oak
#

It's like if you took a picture of someone with the imovie circle blur effect

tribal flint
silver oak
#

Actually that may have been Thursday

opaque sigil
#

Even TC wouldn't have a real date 5 months out, nvidia sure as hell wouldn't

dusty nimbus
silver oak
#

Either way, it was very civilized and great

tribal flint
#

they admitted the leak was real, then tried to make it seem like it didnt matter much

upper sigil
#

average video game character sexuality theorist fan vs average just likes the character enjoyer

dusty nimbus
#

You know I love food fleascream

tribal merlin
opaque sigil
#

And proving the negative and all that

tribal merlin
#

and I doubt the xcom devs have even made a decision on that

#

so how would nvidia know? they don't

silver oak
dusty nimbus
dusty nimbus
tribal flint
#

im not saying all of the dates are right, but feburary release dats and announcments are pretty common from TC

pallid flare
#

what were they supposed to say

tribal flint

and a bunch of other information was put in, like "female protaganist, Metroidvania" and other search tags for the game

pallid flare

"yes the dates are all real, please invest"

I have no glands, but maybe I can make someone from the basement cry in my place just for you Necro

Oh sorry Necro is someone here, I'm dumb

tribal flint

and 6 months is just the absolute minimum, who knows for how long that "feb 1st" was in there

That's not how the end of development works, you can't set a magical date and be done by then

steam leaks are rarely ever right

so if geforce now was somehow related to steam then... feelspkman

Picking sides is a tad silly, it's not about sides, it's about considering reasonable likelihoods

No they said on and deincluded the g in reading

tribal flint
#

yeah that'll do it, i didnt read it as i assumed you were trying to be a smartass and just post that steam also has a cloud service, didnt realise steam service and geforce was the same thing. either way the steam leaks were based on the steam store, not the geforce one

coarse leaf
#

i mean, either way the only data steam rly uses (explicitly) from gfn is publication rights for all of their games, whether gfn would have access to dates is a bit of a grey area

tribal merlin

oh don't get me wrong I'm indeed a smartass feelspkman
but I'm not only joking around all the time

coarse leaf

can't jinx m

trim estuary

can’t jinx m

tribal flint
#

fair enough, im really just hoping for a feb 1st release date bc of the geforce leaks, and the fact they have released/announced a bunch of things during feburary

pallid flare
#

we all are, but we mustn't delude ourselves

coarse leaf
trim estuary
tribal merlin
#

I'd suggest not basing anything on that leak

#

nvidia isn't in any relationship with TC

tribal flint
#

im guessing its gonna be a early to mid 22 release date, if its any further i wont be surprised, but it will be a slight bit of a shock

#

i believe raylee did a poll and msot of his viewers expected some kind of 22 release date

trim estuary
#

EXACTLY DECEMBER 21ST

tribal merlin
#

and TC have said they'd only have a date they can be absolutely 100% sure they can make so 6 months and upwards is pretty much out of the question

opaque sigil
#

December release is hard to imagine unless TC doesn't take time off

coarse leaf
tribal flint
tribal merlin
#

and 6 months is just the lower boundary for the nvidia thing

#

like we don't know, it could have been in there since April or something

tribal flint
#

true

december release is stupid for a small team because they will spend xmas and new years on fixing bugs

two random people come out of nowhere claiming to have copies of the database that have a release date

#

Why is this even a conversation? We all know there is no evidence that the nvidia leak is the actual release date. If SS does come out then, it would merely be a coincidence.

pallid flare
#

and it'd be great

tribal flint
serene chasm
#

It might come out in February or it might not. Not much to speculate

tribal flint

im hoping feb

damn guess i was wrong

serene chasm

I'd take Feb 2023 ngl, sounds reasonable
