something that's been driving me insane in a "i know it exists and I'm Itching for it" way is the fact that if you are an English speaker with a PC, there is undeniably a version of Hollow Knight:Silksong that you could play right now. Like, a 100% stable and ready to release product. Hell i wouldn't be surprised if a few of the translations and ports were already done too.

and like, it's probably existed for Months, but because the game is getting all of its ports, translations, and probably physical releases and merch on the same day, it's not been able to be released yet bc it has to come out with all the other things to prevent loss of sales from that initial hype wave.

#my confidence that its stable comes from like #the fact I dont think team cherry would have been willing to go to xbox about the xbox pass thing if they weren't already certain #of the product. Theyve always been Super careful about the quality of thwir hollowknight stuff #and tbh #i dont think xbox/microsoft would have accepted an incomplete base game into the program when that game was coming #from an indie studio with only one title #even if that title was hollowknight #its Way too risky. game studios go kaput if you look at them wrong #Something could have happened that made team cherry disolve #and x box would have been left with a voided contract and pissed fans #so like. that first tweet about gamepass? I Really Really doubt the game wasnt complete and well into porting when that #was posted
