    Silksong fans crashing out yet again after there was no reveal of Silksong during the Summer Game Fest 2025.

    Silksong has officially become a joke — and if it’s not at Xbox, I’m done. I’ll never forgive this.

Team Cherry, Leth — I hope you’re paying attention.

Because tonight was the last straw.

We’ve waited YEARS. Silksong was announced in 2019. You promised it was coming "soon" in 2022. It’s mid-2025. Not a word. Not a trailer. Not a single real update. And now, Geoff Keighley is literally using your game as a joke on stage in front of millions. And you let it happen by saying NOTHING.

Do you realize how humiliating this has become for your fans? We’ve defended you. We’ve trusted you. We’ve told people “they’re just perfectionists, they’ll drop it when it’s ready.” And now we’re being laughed at by the entire gaming community — because you’ve turned Silksong into vaporware and said NOTHING.

And don’t give me the “small team” excuse anymore. You’ve had five+ years and the full support of millions of fans. We’ve carried the hype FOR you. And how do you repay that loyalty? By ghosting us. By letting the game become a meme. By staying silent while someone turns it into a cheap punchline live on stage.

If the game isn’t at Xbox on Sunday, then I’m done. Fully done. I will never forgive how you handled this. You didn’t just delay a game — you broke trust. You disrespected your community. You let it rot in silence while pretending nothing was wrong.

We deserved better than this. And if you can’t see that, maybe you don’t deserve the fans you’ve had all these years.

    ULTRAKILL has officially become a joke - and if fraud doesn't release tomorrow, I'm done. I'll never forgive this 

To Hakita but also the entire country of Finland - I hope you're paying attention.

Tonight was the final straw. Or stand. Or... Fraud...

You might not know who I am but name is Michael and I have waited YEARS for Layer 8: Fraud since it was announced. I have waited patiently for three whole years and I am starting to feel like I have had enough. I have not heard a thing from you. Not a word. Not a trailer. Not a single real update. Not a single blog post. Not a single letter in the mail. Not a single warm, sensual embrace from Arsi Patala while he whispers in my ear and tells me everything is going to be okay.

Do you even care how we feel as fans? How I feel? We are real people, with real lives, and right now we are being beaten and scorned and humiliated day after day after day, just because we want to play an update. Do you realise how oppressed we are? The other day I went to buy some milk, and when I mistakenly asked the beautiful woman at the store for "blood milk" she called the manager so the whole staff could gather to laugh and humiliate me. She said "look at this pathetic loser who thinks fraud is real". I cried. I had to go home and all I had to eat was the spaghetti I keep in my pockets. If you had spoken up about the development of Fraud, I could have used your words to defend myself, but instead here I am, broken and defenceless, reduced to nothing but a husk.

I don't want to hear any excuses. You might be a small team, but you've had decades to prepare and the loyal support of multiple billions of fans. I have carried the entire hype of Fraud on my back this whole time and so have some others. And how do you treat us in return? You act as if we are nothing but dirt. If ULTRAKILL layer 8: Fraud for PC isn't in my steam account tomorrow I'm done. And I mean it. What's going to happen? You don't want to know, beleive me. I can be very dangerous. Let's just say you will be dead in a pool of your own BLOOD. How about that huh? Yeah.

I will never ever ever ever ever forgive you Hakita and also that filth in gluttony who gave me wrong directions when I was on holiday. You didn't just delay the update, but you spat in my face and kicked me specifically in a way that hurt. You pretended like we didn't exist, and maybe that was the worst part. You pretended like we didn't exist for a very long time. And if you can't see what you've done wrong, then maybe you should just leave.

    You are playing Mario Kart World.

      Wake up babe, new Mario Kart World copypasta just dropped by u/SuperPapernick.

      You are playing Mario Kart World.

The race was hard fought, but you made it to first place in the final lap. The race is almost over and your lead is commanding. You see a blue shell approaching, but you are not worried. "I have a Super Horn, I'm safe" you think to yourself as you watch a ghost rip it from your hands and laugh in your face. The finish line is in sight. You get hit by the blue shell. Followed by a red shell. And another red shell. And another red shell. You finish 15th.

You are playing Mario Kart World.

Finally, after 11 attempts trying to 3-star Heart Rally at 150 cc, you maintained a lead through the whole race, at every checkpoint. It is the final lap. You drove like a pro using Bowser, the fastest character in the game, driving the fastest car available with 20 coins. All your drift and jump boosts were optimal, your racing line immaculate. You took every shortcut. You can see the finish line approaching. "Finally, my practice, perseverance and skilled driving payed off" you think to yourself as you helplessly watch a tiny AI controlled baby, driving a motorized boom box, overtake you on the final straight despite the stat discrepancy and your top speed. You'll have to try again, you think, as you hold in a scream of frustration.

You are playing Mario Kart World.

The race begins, you intentionally do not boost-start. You purposely hang back in 24th place, rerolling items until you get a golden mushroom and a bullet bill. You don't touch the R-button once, don't drift, pull off no tricks and drive like a 3-year old who has never played Mario Kart. You stay in the back of the race deliberately. During the second half of the final lap, you finally unload your items and effortlessly cut through the competition. You finish in first place seconds ahead of the runner up. They stood no chance. You smile a fake smile and tell yourself "I really fought hard for that win, what an accomplishmant it was! A true test of skill!"

You just played Mario Kart World.

      Is it Legal for Players to Kiss as a Strategy

        Original post

        Created by u/andris_biedrins on r/nba in 2016, its a serious post questioning if its legal to distract your opponents by kissing your teammates. The post has become a meme and its often adopted to other sports as a joke.

        It's an off-season question, but I'm serious. Lets say that it's the finals game 7 in crunch time. If LeBron starts kissing Kyrie, not a single defender will be watching the ball, leaving JR open for an easy 3. Would LeBron and Kyrie be called for a techical, or would the points count? The rules say technical fouls relate to unsportsmanlike behavior, but I don't see how this is unsportsmanlike, it's just the most uncharacteristic thing ever. What say you guys?

        Why don't players use kissing as a tactic in playoff matches?
        byu/funmighthold inGlobalOffensive
        Imagine this: Major quarter final. Faze vs Vitality. Faze are huge underdogs and they know it, but they've pushed it to map 3. Game is tied 11-11 and its a 1v1 zywoo vs s1mple, but s1mple is on low hp. All of a sudden, karrigan and elige stand up and start passionately making out on stage. Zywoo sees this and gets distracted, allowing s1mple to win the easy 1v1 and win the series.

Why has nobody used this tactic before? Is there a rule against it?

        Valorant

        Is it Legal for Players to Kiss as a Strategy?

Let’s say that it's the finals on LAN map 5 in crunch time. If Victor starts kissing FNS, not a single opponent will be watching the game, leaving Yay open for an easy ace. Would Victor and FNS be punished for this or would the round count? The rules are vague but point to no unsportsmanlike behavior, but I don't see how this is unsportsmanlike, it's just the most uncharacteristic thing ever. What say you guys?

        I can’t take it anymore. I’m sick of Haikaveh

          Its the Xiangling copypasta but changed to Haikaveh, a nickname of the pairing for Alhaitham and Kaveh in Genshin Impact.

          I can't take it anymore. I'm sick of Haikaveh. I try to do Alhaitham's story quest. Haikaveh appear together. I try to play Kaveh's hangout quest. Haikaveh appear together. I try to play Sumeru event. Haikaveh appear together. I try to play Sethos' voiceline about Alhaitham and Kaveh. Haikaveh appear together. I try to play Alhaitham's voiceline about Tighnari. He just keeps mentioning Kaveh.

They grab me by the throat. I pull for them. I study languages and architecture for them. I listen to “Writing on the wall” both versions 520 times for them. They aren't satisfied. I make content of them. "We don't need this much fan creation" They tell me. "Buy our new merch." They grab Hoyo and force them to collab with KFC. "You just need to make a namecard of us stand next to each other. We can show the world of our love more"

I can't buy the new KFC merch , I don't have enough money. They grab my credit card. It declines. "Guess this is the end." They grab Mehrak. Kaveh says "Mehrak, get them." There is no hint of sadness in their eyes. Nothing but pure, Haikaveh is so canon it make Alhaitham's yume crash out. What a cruel world.

            Ha that’s nice liberal, I see they got you workin the easy shift. Not me, I’m going in for my 36 hour shift at the ball brushing factory, where they crush my BALLS. That’s right, every day I slap these puppies up there on the hydraulic press and have more than 6 trillion newtons of force exerted directly onto my BALLS. I’m hoping for a new company record, 6.1 trillion newtons exerted directly on my BALLS. I’m hopin to win the company gift card. $25 at macys, so my girlfriend could get a nice pair of headphones, and not have to listen to me whine about my crushed balls. That I got from the ball crushing factory. I don’t even know what’s going on down there anymore, I’m scared to look.
