Honestly, I’m just relieved we finally got a timeframe—now I can stop refreshing the Steam page every five minutes. That said, Team Cherry better be packing this game with enough content to justify the years of suspense

Finally, a light at the end of the Silksong tunnel—though after all this waiting, I'll believe it when I'm actually controlling Hornet. Team Cherry's radio silence had me convinced this game was becoming the next Half-Life 3 2025 feels both forever away and weirdly soon considering how long we've been memeing about Silksong's 'imminent' release. Here's hoping the wait means they're cooking up something truly special.
