1
00:00:05,300 --> 00:00:07,700
Well, thank you so much for watching guys.

2
00:00:07,700 --> 00:00:10,610
Keep an eye out for a part two to this video.

3
00:00:10,610 --> 00:00:12,599
Of course, there’s nothing more to say.

4
00:00:12,599 --> 00:00:15,450
The trailer is only two minutes long for Christ’s
sake.

5
00:00:15,450 --> 00:00:19,390
So it’ll probably just be me rambling about
the exact same shit for 12 minutes just to

6
00:00:19,390 --> 00:00:20,390
get more views.

7
00:00:20,390 --> 00:00:23,170
But I’m sure you guys will eat it up anyway.

8
00:00:23,170 --> 00:00:24,400
you gullible sacks of shi…

9
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:29,320
[Cue Eddie, Let Me Go Back To My Home for
the hit TV series Donkey Kong Country]

10
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:33,572
So, the Silksong trailer has been out for
a few weeks now, giving us a chance to look

11
00:00:33,580 --> 00:00:35,720
at things a little bit more closely.

12
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,890
There are a few things I should have mentioned
in my first video, so I’m going to take

13
00:00:38,890 --> 00:00:42,280
this opportunity to talk a little bit more
about Team Cherry’s new game.

14
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,470
I’m also going to go over some Reddit posts
that Team Cherry made, like, a year and a

15
00:00:46,470 --> 00:00:47,470
half ago.

16
00:00:47,470 --> 00:00:49,400
I’m sure those are still relevant.

17
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:53,910
So like the complete idiot that I am, I missed
a huge detail right at the start of the trailer.

18
00:00:53,910 --> 00:00:58,400
I questioned why Hornet didn’t escape her
cage until this point in the trailer.

19
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,440
But if you watch this scene closely, you’ll
notice that Hornet actually seems surprised

20
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:03,610
about what is going on.

21
00:01:03,610 --> 00:01:06,320
You’ll see the silk start to form around
her.

22
00:01:06,320 --> 00:01:09,760
After that, you’ll hear Hornet make a startled
sound as her eyes widen.

23
00:01:17,329 --> 00:01:20,020
So Hornet probably isn’t the one causing
this to happen.

24
00:01:20,030 --> 00:01:23,760
It seems likely that this is an effect of
Hornet entering the kingdom, seeing as it

25
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,409
happens right at the threshold to this new
land.

26
00:01:26,409 --> 00:01:30,729
This could be similar to the Pale King, who
grants the bugs within the beacon of his kingdom

27
00:01:30,729 --> 00:01:31,810
higher thought.

28
00:01:31,810 --> 00:01:36,939
The parallel here is that any bug that enters
this kingdom becomes enthralled in silk.

29
00:01:36,939 --> 00:01:40,149
We don’t really know what this means for
the bugs though, but for now we should just

30
00:01:40,149 --> 00:01:41,700
assume that it’s a bad thing.

31
00:01:41,700 --> 00:01:46,869
I mean, if silk came out of nowhere and started
to bind me up, I would be extremely worried,

32
00:01:46,869 --> 00:01:48,960
albeit a little turned on.

33
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,479
While we’re talking about this scene, I
should address the idea that Hornet wasn’t

34
00:01:52,479 --> 00:01:54,289
actually captured.

35
00:01:54,289 --> 00:01:57,819
Some people in the comments said that the
cultists might just be escorting Hornet to

36
00:01:57,819 --> 00:01:58,920
this new land.

37
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:03,350
But if we look at the Silksong website we
get a clear indication that Hornet was captured:

38
00:02:03,350 --> 00:02:08,860
“In her search for the truth behind her
capture, Hornet will befriend surprising strangers,

39
00:02:08,860 --> 00:02:13,910
discover shocking secrets and solve ancient
mysteries in a kingdom full of wonders.”

40
00:02:13,910 --> 00:02:17,910
In other words, the story will involve Hornet
figuring out why she was captured.

41
00:02:17,910 --> 00:02:23,560
Do the cultists need her for some kind of
spooky ritual... involving bells?

42
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,190
Speaking of cultists, people wanted me to
talk about this guy because he looks like

43
00:02:27,190 --> 00:02:28,470
a penis.

44
00:02:28,470 --> 00:02:30,610
So let’s talk about this guy.

45
00:02:30,610 --> 00:02:31,850
This guy looks like a penis.

46
00:02:31,850 --> 00:02:34,280
See, he’s got the little hands and everything.

47
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,120
But what’s actually interesting about this
bug is that he is wielding some kind of scissor

48
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,120
blade.

49
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,270
And he’s not the only one.

50
00:02:40,270 --> 00:02:42,530
There is another bug with a literal pair of
scissors.

51
00:02:42,530 --> 00:02:43,820
What’s next?

52
00:02:43,820 --> 00:02:46,440
A bug carrying a Schick Hydro razor blade?

53
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,560
Also, these hooks that I pointed out in the
last videos are probably crochet needles.

54
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:56,620
And this ball that we see prominently in these
gilded cities might symbolize a ball of yarn.

55
00:02:56,620 --> 00:02:59,820
So do the faceless bugs control these strings?

56
00:02:59,820 --> 00:03:01,270
I think it’s a possibility.

57
00:03:01,270 --> 00:03:05,510
In my last video, I talked about how the bell
cult might be victims trying to fight back

58
00:03:05,510 --> 00:03:07,160
against a haunting song.

59
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,260
But it’s not a strong link.

60
00:03:09,260 --> 00:03:11,340
These bugs could very easily be villians.

61
00:03:11,340 --> 00:03:13,290
I mean, they cover their faces.

62
00:03:13,290 --> 00:03:15,550
Anyone who does that is a menace.

63
00:03:15,550 --> 00:03:20,710
Mask Maker implies that bugs need faces in
order to “define”, “focus” and “exist”.

64
00:03:20,710 --> 00:03:24,870
So by covering their faces, these bugs might
be sacrificing their autonomy, similar to

65
00:03:24,870 --> 00:03:28,110
how the bugs controlled by the Radiance lost
theirs.

66
00:03:28,110 --> 00:03:32,280
Now I’m a little rusty on my Hollow Knight
lore, but I’m pretty sure the Radiance was

67
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,700
the bad guy, right?

68
00:03:34,700 --> 00:03:38,270
Another interesting revelation in this trailer
is the fact that Hornet stabs herself with

69
00:03:38,270 --> 00:03:40,120
a Lifeblood syringe.

70
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,540
This implies that Lifeblood will have a presence
in this game.

71
00:03:43,540 --> 00:03:46,100
But what the fuck is this blue Gatorade stuff?

72
00:03:46,100 --> 00:03:50,620
Well, in Hollow Knight, we see a creature
that might be responsible for Lifeblood’s

73
00:03:50,620 --> 00:03:51,620
existence.

74
00:03:51,620 --> 00:03:54,790
But the fact that there is Lifeblood in this
kingdom could imply that there are more than

75
00:03:54,790 --> 00:03:56,370
one of these creatures.

76
00:03:56,370 --> 00:03:58,070
That wouldn’t surprise me.

77
00:03:58,070 --> 00:04:02,180
After all, there are several Lifeblood cocoons
scattered across Hallownest.

78
00:04:02,180 --> 00:04:05,320
Maybe these cocoons spawn more lifeblood producing
creatures.

79
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,280
In Hallownest, Lifeblood was deemed a heresy
by the Pale King.

80
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,560
Salubra mentions that drinking Lifeblood is
a taboo.

81
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,859
And Blue Child Joni, who is strongly implied
to be connected to Lifeblood, is known as

82
00:04:16,859 --> 00:04:18,689
Joni the Heretic.

83
00:04:18,689 --> 00:04:22,199
We don’t know why the Pale King might have
outlawed Lifeblood, but maybe it’s just

84
00:04:22,199 --> 00:04:27,999
because he doesn’t like people worshipping
other gods or drinking other gods’ juices.

85
00:04:27,999 --> 00:04:31,610
Given the fact that the Pale King outlawed
Lifeblood and that Hornet injects Lifeblood

86
00:04:31,610 --> 00:04:36,909
using a syringe has created probably my favorite
Hollow Knight meme ever: that the Pale King

87
00:04:36,909 --> 00:04:38,999
is an anti-vaxxer.

88
00:04:38,999 --> 00:04:43,400
Jumping back into some speculation, I mentioned
in my last video that new antagonist of this

89
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,689
game is going to be related to the color purple.

90
00:04:46,689 --> 00:04:49,580
So I’ve been putting together a list of
possible culprits.

91
00:04:49,580 --> 00:04:51,699
I think it’s looking pretty good so far.

92
00:04:51,699 --> 00:04:54,460
I think Grimace would be a fine addition to
the Hollow Knight canon.

93
00:04:54,460 --> 00:04:59,000
But I should mention that some of the bugs
do bleed different colored blood other that

94
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,000
purple.

95
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,770
The Moss Bee bleeds green blood, while the
ants bleed red blood.

96
00:05:03,770 --> 00:05:07,060
Does this mean we might finally see the return
of the Noid?

97
00:05:07,060 --> 00:05:11,300
Of course, that seal on the bell is still
purple, but then again, do we know if that

98
00:05:11,300 --> 00:05:16,770
seal is from a good guy, or bad guy, or an
anti hero, or Hornet from the future?

99
00:05:16,770 --> 00:05:20,870
We just don’t know anything about what’s
going on here to really say for sure.

100
00:05:20,870 --> 00:05:24,750
One thing I think I forgot to bring up was
the idea that the silk Hornet uses is made

101
00:05:24,750 --> 00:05:26,110
of soul.

102
00:05:26,110 --> 00:05:29,650
Maybe soul in this kingdom is somehow transformed
into silk.

103
00:05:29,650 --> 00:05:35,360
And Hornet is able to channel this silk, possibly
thanks to her needle or some other power.

104
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:39,870
From a Reddit AMA, we know that Hornet’s
needle was uniquely made for her, and that

105
00:05:39,870 --> 00:05:45,000
it is a difficult weapon to wield, so it seems
entirely possible that it contains some strange,

106
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,389
convenient power.

107
00:05:46,389 --> 00:05:50,419
I mean seriously, you can’t play music on
a needle, guys.

108
00:05:50,419 --> 00:05:52,569
Believe me, I haven’t tried it.

109
00:05:52,569 --> 00:05:56,919
Also, another cool change for this game will
be that Hornet can fucking talk!

110
00:05:56,919 --> 00:06:01,070
So we might actually be able to have interesting
dialogue trees with other characters in the

111
00:06:01,070 --> 00:06:02,070
game.

112
00:06:02,070 --> 00:06:04,979
The biggest benefit of this, is that it opens
the doors to having more involved romantic

113
00:06:04,979 --> 00:06:05,979
options.

114
00:06:05,980 --> 00:06:09,120
This is also helped by the fact that Hornet
actually has a gender!

115
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,220
♫Alf Clausen - The Land Of Chocolate (1991)♫

116
00:06:11,220 --> 00:06:15,220
Unfortunately, though, we won’t be able
to romance the Elderbug this time around.

117
00:06:15,220 --> 00:06:16,540
♫Alf Clausen - The Land Of Chocolate (1991)♫
again because it’s funnier the second time, right?

118
00:06:16,540 --> 00:06:19,100
Let’s talk about this fight scene with Lace
again.

119
00:06:19,100 --> 00:06:23,720
First off, I should mention that there is
some kind of cage or elevator in this room.

120
00:06:23,729 --> 00:06:26,210
Not sure what it’s doing there, but hey,
there it is.

121
00:06:26,210 --> 00:06:31,010
There are also a few giant pipes visible in
the background, but if you look you’ll notice

122
00:06:31,010 --> 00:06:32,960
that a few taper off at the end.

123
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,229
I’m a little curious about what these pipes
might be used for.

124
00:06:36,229 --> 00:06:40,350
Maybe there is some kind of material in these
pipes that is extruded at the ends.

125
00:06:40,350 --> 00:06:42,340
Maybe there’s silk in there or something.

126
00:06:42,340 --> 00:06:46,259
Some people have pointed out that Rosaries
might not be a currency system.

127
00:06:46,259 --> 00:06:50,839
Rosaries might just be one of the many different
materials Hornet can collect for quests.

128
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,599
This would explain why the Rosaires don’t
stay on the screen like Geo did in Hollow

129
00:06:54,599 --> 00:06:55,599
Knight.

130
00:06:55,599 --> 00:06:58,979
I mentioned in my last video that I think
Silksong will account for every ending in

131
00:06:58,979 --> 00:07:01,129
Hollow Knight in some way.

132
00:07:01,129 --> 00:07:02,710
And I want to clarify that.

133
00:07:02,710 --> 00:07:06,150
My reason for thinking this comes from a comment
from William on Reddit:

134
00:07:06,150 --> 00:07:08,150
“All endings are equally canon.

135
00:07:08,150 --> 00:07:10,240
We're not into 'True Endings.'

136
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,759
You choose the path yourself.

137
00:07:11,759 --> 00:07:15,460
We'll do our best in all future Hollow Knight
content to account for all of them.”

138
00:07:15,460 --> 00:07:20,139
Now you could argue that since this was from
August 2017, Team Cherry changed their minds.

139
00:07:20,139 --> 00:07:22,150
Well, here’s my counter.

140
00:07:22,150 --> 00:07:25,249
Godmaster has not one, but two cliffhanger
endings.

141
00:07:25,249 --> 00:07:29,400
Why would they give us two endings if they
knew only one was canon?

142
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,950
Even if the Shade Lord is transported somewhere
by the Delicate Flower, Hornet still has some

143
00:07:33,950 --> 00:07:35,970
kind of confrontation with the Hollow Knight.

144
00:07:35,970 --> 00:07:39,059
Now, I don’t know how Team Cherry will make
this work.

145
00:07:39,059 --> 00:07:42,689
As many have pointed out, the Sealed Sibling
ending wouldn’t transition into a Hornet

146
00:07:42,689 --> 00:07:43,819
sequel very well.

147
00:07:43,819 --> 00:07:47,749
But then again, how many people have even
seen the Godmaster endings?

148
00:07:47,749 --> 00:07:49,539
They’re kind of hard to get.

149
00:07:49,539 --> 00:07:52,469
Just think of all the normies who are going
to come into Silksong and have no idea what

150
00:07:52,469 --> 00:07:54,229
the fuck is going on.

151
00:07:54,229 --> 00:07:57,930
So at the very least, I don’t think Silksong
is going to create a canonical ending for

152
00:07:57,930 --> 00:07:59,259
Hollow Knight.

153
00:07:59,259 --> 00:08:03,939
Another issue we need to talk about is whether
Silksong is a sequel or a prequel.

154
00:08:03,939 --> 00:08:06,759
I have seen a lot of people speculating that
Silksong is a prequel.

155
00:08:06,759 --> 00:08:09,409
Team Cherry has called Silksong a sequel several
times.

156
00:08:09,409 --> 00:08:13,309
In the description of the reveal trailer,
it is called a sequel, and Team Cherry calls

157
00:08:13,309 --> 00:08:15,409
the game a sequel in their recent video update.

158
00:08:15,409 --> 00:08:21,040
“Hornet gets her own adventure in her own
full game in the sequel to our game, Hollow

159
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:21,540
Knight.”

160
00:08:21,540 --> 00:08:22,300
“Yup”

161
00:08:22,300 --> 00:08:24,460
So no, it’s not a prequel.

162
00:08:24,460 --> 00:08:28,110
This isn’t fucking Baby Hornet fighting
against the measles or some shit.

163
00:08:28,110 --> 00:08:33,000
Now you could argue that Silksong is simply
just a sequel to the franchise, not necessarily

164
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,779
a sequel to the plot.

165
00:08:35,779 --> 00:08:36,779
And yeah…

166
00:08:36,779 --> 00:08:40,159
I guess you could argue that, but is Team
Cherry really that cheeky?

167
00:08:40,159 --> 00:08:45,160
Let’s look at some external sources to see
if we can learn anything else about Silksong.

168
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:49,720
From some old maps of Hallownest, we do know
a little bit about what the Hornet DLC would

169
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,129
have looked like.

170
00:08:51,129 --> 00:08:55,510
There was originally going to be a Hornet
fight in the City of Tears, but more importantly,

171
00:08:55,510 --> 00:08:59,730
we might have an idea of what the upcoming
backer village is going to be: some kind of

172
00:08:59,730 --> 00:09:01,470
lion village.

173
00:09:01,470 --> 00:09:06,810
So I gotta ask, Team Cherry, how the fuck
is a lion village okay, but a snail village

174
00:09:06,810 --> 00:09:08,440
is out of place?

175
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:09,440
What the fuck?

176
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,230
And now it’s time to jump into some of Team
Cherry’s posts from the two Reddit AMAs

177
00:09:13,230 --> 00:09:14,810
they held in the past.

178
00:09:14,810 --> 00:09:20,200
Most of these come from their August 2017
AMA, which is a little old and might be outdated.

179
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:25,130
Their second AMA was in June 2018, but Team
Cherry was really tight lipped in this one.

180
00:09:25,130 --> 00:09:28,600
But looking back, you could tell William was
fucking with us.

181
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,160
Just listen to him talk about what the Forest
of Bones would have been like if it wasn’t

182
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:33,660
cut from Hollow Knight:

183
00:09:33,660 --> 00:09:37,460
Imagine your favourite area of Hollow Knight,
but 100 times better.

184
00:09:37,460 --> 00:09:41,570
It was huge, and if anything, TOO much fun
if that makes sense.

185
00:09:41,570 --> 00:09:45,330
I’m honestly surprised by how many times
Team Cherry said they were interested in giving

186
00:09:45,330 --> 00:09:46,959
us a third playable character.

187
00:09:46,959 --> 00:09:51,640
They didn’t tie it to Zote much, but maybe
our stay in Team Cherry’s bug themed world

188
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,820
will be even longer than we thought.

189
00:09:53,820 --> 00:09:57,240
Team Cherry also mentioned the Five Great
Knights, hinting that they have ideas for

190
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:58,240
them.

191
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,260
They even did so in their second AMA.

192
00:10:00,260 --> 00:10:05,279
If Hornet is going to learn more about her
past in this game, that might mean flashbacks.

193
00:10:05,279 --> 00:10:09,889
This could easily give us more details on
characters like Fierce Dryya, Kindly Isma

194
00:10:09,889 --> 00:10:14,029
and Mighty Hegemol since we know next to nothing
about these characters.

195
00:10:14,029 --> 00:10:17,680
There is also Grey Mourner, or Mysterious
Ze’mer.

196
00:10:17,680 --> 00:10:22,140
According to White Lady, the Delicate Flower
Ze’mer hands the Knight was brought to Hallownest

197
00:10:22,140 --> 00:10:25,990
by “one beloved, fair knight of lands serene”.

198
00:10:25,990 --> 00:10:29,889
This flower might be connected to the flowers
we see in the Lace fight, which means this

199
00:10:29,889 --> 00:10:32,720
kingdom might be related to Ze’mer.

200
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,040
But this connection is a bit awkward.

201
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:39,140
First of all, Ze’mer has this really weird
accent that doesn’t seem common in this

202
00:10:39,140 --> 00:10:40,720
new kingdom.

203
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:45,200
And second, this flower connection might not
even exist because these white roses don’t

204
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,230
exactly look like the Delicate Flower.

205
00:10:47,230 --> 00:10:51,769
And finally, even if this is Ze’mer’s
homeland, we probably wouldn’t see her during

206
00:10:51,769 --> 00:10:53,170
Hornet’s adventure.

207
00:10:53,170 --> 00:10:58,980
In Hollow Knight, Ze’mer kinda turns into
a mask for some reason.

208
00:10:58,980 --> 00:11:04,819
Team Cherry has also hinted at there being
more lore for the Snail Shamans in both AMAs.

209
00:11:04,819 --> 00:11:06,220
At least I think they did.

210
00:11:06,220 --> 00:11:09,320
So let me just give you the 4-1-1 on these
shamans real quick.

211
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,569
And by real quick, I mean we know pretty much
nothing about them.

212
00:11:13,569 --> 00:11:16,470
They seem to have a deep knowledge of soul
and void.

213
00:11:16,470 --> 00:11:20,519
The Snail Shaman calls the Knight a “little
shadow” and he recognizes spells the Knight

214
00:11:20,519 --> 00:11:23,690
uses that are composed of shadows or “Void”.

215
00:11:23,690 --> 00:11:29,380
But despite knowing what void is, the Snail
Shaman is still surprised by the Abyss Shriek,

216
00:11:29,380 --> 00:11:33,819
implying that his people have never been to
the Abyss, so it’s a bit confusing to say

217
00:11:33,819 --> 00:11:34,819
the least.

218
00:11:34,819 --> 00:11:38,290
Team Cherry has also said that they might
explain how the vessels escaped the Abyss.

219
00:11:38,290 --> 00:11:41,889
From what we see in Hollow Knight, it appears
as though the vessels were able to escape

220
00:11:41,889 --> 00:11:47,390
the Abyss, go up into the Ancient Basin and
somehow make it to Deepnest, which explains

221
00:11:47,390 --> 00:11:50,259
why there are Vessels in Nosk’s lair.

222
00:11:50,259 --> 00:11:55,080
Given that both the White Lady and Seer appeared
to have been waiting for a Vessel to arrive,

223
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:59,360
I think there might be a little bit more going
on than what we know so far.

224
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,069
Or maybe Team Cherry just never came up with
a good explanation for this.

225
00:12:03,069 --> 00:12:07,699
From their Reddit posts, I’m starting to
think they just make this up as they go along.

226
00:12:07,699 --> 00:12:11,990
But enough about vague lore we might never
get an answer to, let’s talk about something

227
00:12:11,990 --> 00:12:13,110
we do know about.

228
00:12:13,110 --> 00:12:16,360
Let me just find something real quick.

229
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:17,360
Umm…

230
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,140
Here we go.

231
00:12:20,140 --> 00:12:25,000
One thing we do know is that Silksong will
give us more information on Deepnest, Herrah

232
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,370
and the Weavers.

233
00:12:26,370 --> 00:12:30,629
Ari even mentioned this tablet in the Fungal
Wastes that appears to mention the old king

234
00:12:30,629 --> 00:12:32,149
of Deepnest.

235
00:12:32,149 --> 00:12:35,769
So I wouldn’t be surprised if we learned
about this supposed dead king.

236
00:12:35,769 --> 00:12:39,130
And that’s about all the relevant AMA responses
I could find.

237
00:12:39,130 --> 00:12:43,470
Aside from the obvious Deepnest stuff, I think
we will see more about the Five Great Knights

238
00:12:43,470 --> 00:12:45,750
and the Snail Shamans in Silksong.

239
00:12:45,750 --> 00:12:49,860
Let’s finish off this video by talking about
what the possible release date for Silksong

240
00:12:49,860 --> 00:12:50,860
will be.

241
00:12:50,860 --> 00:12:54,750
In their blogpost, Team Cherry said that they
have been working on this game for well over

242
00:12:54,750 --> 00:12:59,900
a year now, with the first pieces coming together
right after Hollow Knight launched in February

243
00:12:59,900 --> 00:13:01,550
2017.

244
00:13:01,550 --> 00:13:05,850
Team Cherry worked on Hollow Knight for about
two and a half years, so if we apply that

245
00:13:05,850 --> 00:13:11,470
to Silksong, that gives us a release date
of around late 2019 to early 2020.

246
00:13:11,470 --> 00:13:14,240
The trailer looks like the game is pretty
early on in development.

247
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:18,500
You can see some parts of the trailer where
Hornet will use her silk moves even when the

248
00:13:18,500 --> 00:13:19,810
bar is empty.

249
00:13:19,810 --> 00:13:23,420
And you even see some enemies not give off
silk like the others.

250
00:13:23,420 --> 00:13:27,090
For this bone crab guy, I’m pretty sure
that is a mistake.

251
00:13:27,090 --> 00:13:31,560
On top of that, Team Cherry has even said
that this trailer was their first chance at

252
00:13:31,560 --> 00:13:32,720
really getting to play the game.

253
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:33,720
“It’s good, yeah.

254
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:38,529
I mean, making the trailer has given us a
pretty good opportunity to really kind of

255
00:13:38,529 --> 00:13:44,459
play with her a lot and really get to grips
with what actually makes her kind of fun and

256
00:13:44,459 --> 00:13:45,459
different.”

257
00:13:45,459 --> 00:13:47,579
So don’t expect Silksong anytime soon.

258
00:13:47,579 --> 00:13:51,220
But Team Cherry did say they plan on giving
us updates every so often to fill us in on

259
00:13:51,220 --> 00:13:53,310
what crazy things they are up to.

260
00:13:53,310 --> 00:13:56,480
Hopefully, that will make the wait a little
more bearable.

261
00:13:57,700 --> 00:13:58,500
Ah, who am I kidding.
