  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

    My point is that it is infinitely easier to be destructive than to create.

      No I get it, and that in particular is a good point, but the whole “you can’t criticise this until you’ve made something equivalent” is just nothing

        Yeah I didn’t mean to make that a blanket statement. Hollow Knight is just one of the few cases of just an incredible game, well liked, by a studio looking out for their customers and not being greedy fuck heads. The original comment has no place for many reasons. The hype is there because it is earned for sure.

    What marketing has team cherry actually done? All the hype is from fans that have been waiting for years.
