    The most overhyped game I’ve seen over the past year, they’re pushing the PR so damn hard.

      I think if you can overhype a game to the point where clueless people like tomiant@programming.dev are inventing PR, by not saying anything, that’s a pretty big achievement.

        There’s no need for the other person to yuck anyone’s yum, but this argument sucks too, in all of its forms.

        Now we know you’re a miserable douche. Looking forward to breaking out the popcoen when you throw a temper tantrum over Silksong not living up to the hype

      What PR? The only PR Team Cherry did was make and release a damned good Metroidvania.

      Since then, and uptil now, it’s mostly been silence.

      Weird, huh, how fans can get excited to play a good game?

        This kind of argument suuuuuucks. I can at least understand the other commenter being sceptical of games that are popular because marketers are sneaky like that (not that I agree with the person you’re replying to), but this “you can’t criticise unless you’ve developed a game” thing is no good

      Agreed. Hollow Knight is overrated.

      The frustrating part is it only needed 2 changes to not suck: bosses get health bars and ghosts spawn at the start of the room, not halfway through a platforming challenge.

      And before anyone mentions mods: devs shouldn’t rely on mods to fix their damn game
