Hollow Knight: Silksong, a Forgettable Game
Year: 2025
Type: other
Abstract: For over six years, Hollow Knight: Silksong has not simply been a video game. It has transcended its nature as an entertainment product to become a cultural myth, an almost religious symbol of expectation and hope for a global community. A wait that lasted 1,692 days, according to the meticulous count of a fan channel, a period during which the silence of the developers of Team Cherry created a deafening void. This void has not remained such; It was filled with a collective energy that turned anticipation into a phenomenon in its own right.
