I mean they already got exposed for lying about the "30 developer" thing

They did? Hmmmm

33 wasn't made by 30 people

Gotta link for that, out of curiosity?

Interesting

tbf the online discourse contributed a lot to spreading this narrative

so it's not entirely their fault

But slightly on them to not reel it in

Though it shouldn't take away from the pristine quality of the game

I mean it's completely normal to outsource work

The main bulk was still on them

100%

still a lie to then say this

like I am super happy that this game is so successful

Not really, people just take the 30 people thing too literally

and they absolutely deserve the success

nah they absolutely supported this narrative

because it's good for their PR

thing is they don't need to lie about this shit

like why doing that

they don't need to quadruple down on this underdog narrative

I am quite sure that if someone digs deeper the "almost no experience" and "bored" thing was a lie too

because that didn't came up until now

I think you are overthinking this waaaay too much

For one thing coming up with an idea while being bored is like the most normal thing

Almost no experience can be from anything. Making codes, being a leader, making a brand new studio etc.

you don't make a game like this just out of boredom lol

they are just saying this for looking cool

That's not what they said

Coming up with an idea and making it are completely different

They spent 5 years on this, of course it wasn't out of boredom, like come on dude

I do agree some of the stuff going around is too much but that's more on the press than the studio for now

I really hope this won't bite their ass in the future

it's super worrying

it sets people's expectations unbelievably high. It's already stupid that people expect them to make a sequel.

most indie devs just do something entirely different. Games like Hades are the only exception and the 2nd game isn't apparently as good as the first game

I don't know where you heard that, it's much better

what I mean is I want to see a 3D platformer from Sandfall in the style of Mario Odyssey 😌

just to flex that they imporved their platforming

Also an indie studio making a sequel is normal

Hollow Knight, Hotline Miami, Shovel Knight

Also I seriously find it hard to call Sandfall indie

oh I mean with sequel a "Sequel". like I saw people expecting a sequel with the same characters.

Getting an actor like Andy Serkis is an insane pull

Yeah Tea you're kinda alone on this one

What happened to all that "keep an open mind" stuff you keep saying to me? Does that not apply??

Here's an idea

hahahaah

Might be crazy,

BUT PLAY THE GAMES YOURSELF

And if you don't want to

WHO CARES THEN 😭

When did it become the thing where we have to involve ourselves in EVERY facet of gaming discourse?

Dude the entire cast is firetrucking crazy, I'm still shocked by it

I need to finish FFX before I start that lol, need to take it one JRPG at a time
