We don't deserve team cherry. They could've easily sold it for $40 and everybody would have bought it, but they mentioned before that they wanted their games to be affordable for more people to play.

Take note AAA studios - this is how you do it.

With this pricing, Silksong may be the only game this year that I'll actually purchase on release day.

No Australian pricing details

Believe it or not, right to gaol.

I don't really like games like this (I know Hollow Knight is a masterpiece if you do) but I'd be tempted to buy it for $20 just to support the studio

and they're going to prove the same point stardew did, by selling multiple copies to the same people on different platforms and blowing any sales projections they might have made out of the water, that video games right now are ridiculously overpriced.

Hollow Knight was only $15 and got a lot of free DLC. The developers considered it a huge success.

Many others would've made it at least twice as much, knowing that regardless of the cost, it would've sold like crazy.

If they’re only pricing it $20, how do explain the €100 I’m about to spend on it???

That's basically giving it away. I guess they can very well expect to make the money back in volume.

Wow! Between BG3, CO:E33, and Sliksong, all the AAA lies are falling away. They don't have to cost the user an arm and a leg, they can be beautiful works of art and love from small(ish) teams, and they can be an experience that is so rich in player choice it's practically unique and highly replayable.

i expected it to be more ngl

At $20 this is a day one Steam purchase for me. Even if I don't get around to playing it for the next several months.

I think I've spent more time waiting for Silksong in the past week than ever before.

Whoa. Enormous respect to Team Cherry for this. It's so cool to see people not rinsing passionate fans! Well done 🤘

RIP Steam download servers.

This is how to do it

I might have to consider it. On the one hand, I did get to a point in Hollow Knight where I just wasn't enjoying it anymore so I never finished it. But at $20 for a brand new game, I'll consider it. Unfortunately I have a backlog right now, but overall things just aren't working out for me and my gaming time.

I bought hallow knight 3 times. Seems Silk Song will be the same.

I don’t even like Hollow Knight that much but I’ll buy it because it’s $20.

Release date announced? It's this week?!
