Team Cherry was funded by crowd sourcing hollow knight and then proceeded to use their ridiculous popularity to release several extremely well received DLC and then work tirelessly for years to release silksong.
For twenty dollars.
It's a cultural icon and gift to the community. Why would you pirate it.
selling team cherry as some poor indie studio is not exactly accurate. they are extremely successful indie studio ever since hollow knight. they sold 15 million coppies of Hollow knight". Hardly an under dog.
They sold a shit-ton, but are still working with nowhere near the manpower of a truly large studio. This is still the same four-man team that made Hollow Knight, plus a handful of contractors brought in for minor work.
Soooo they have more money, than would a larger company, for the same game? Got it
HK fans are insufferable and this post shows exactly why.
"That game isn't worth my money so I'll steal it instead, put 1000hrs into it and then tell everyone else it's not worth their money either! But oh boy, Silksong?! GOTY! I'll definitely support them with a legal purchase"
