Buona la Prima - Episode 29
Pietro Faccio and Sergio Rocco of Buona la Prima take us into their wonderful world dedicated to the Gaming sector.
Buona la Prima podcast is a partner of Biunivoca.
In this episode:
After a seven-year wait, Hollow Knight: Silksong is finally here.
An almost symbolic price (€19.50), one of the most anticipated games since GTA, and the result? All digital stores—Steam, PlayStation, Nintendo, and even Game Pass—collapsed under the weight of downloads.
In this episode of Buona la Prima, we analyze what really happened:
-Why the launch was a technical disaster despite commercial success
-Criticism of Team Cherry and digital stores
-The price debate: historic opportunity or danger for indie games?
-"SNES-like" graphics or evocative art style?
-Why Silksong will remain a case study for years
A triumph and a failure at the same time, a video game that raised the bar and exposed the fragility of the digital market.
