It’s hard to make a good and fun metroidvania, and to make one that could top the OG? With a character that basically travel using needle and thread? That’s even harder, and takes a lot of time to design and implement. I assume they complete the whole game early on(as in playable from start to finish) but found out that it just couldn’t be as good as Hollowknight, so they went back to the drawing board and redesign a lot of stuff.
I get that but this game is Looking like it will take almost 8 years. How many successful games take 8 years? Most collapse by then. Luckily they’re doing something that isn’t going to visually or mechanically age out to most likely.
I’m sure there are legitimate reasons. I’m sure the game will be great. But this is definitely unusual and I’m surprised people are so angry and defensive about it. I’m not blaming the developers at all, this is just very surprising
