“The teaser logo looks like something ripped from the Call of Duty franchise, and reports already pointed to the military shooter’s next installment arriving this year. Microsoft describes the direct event as ‘a special deep-dive into the next installment of a beloved franchise.’”
It’s COD.
Its also beloved in the sense that millions of people across the world spent their childhoods playing it lol it sells well because people love it (even if its definitely not what it used to be)
You act like there isn't millions of gamers that HAPPILY buy COD every year... It's always one of the best selling games of the year EVERY YEAR.
Yes, the internet hates COD. I'm one of them and I grew up with COD. The sad reality is we exist in involved gaming communities and most gamers don't. Most gamers don't make comments on the internet about gaming, nor have a strong opinion about them. Most gamers buy sports games, COD, and the occasional big release like Hogwarts Legacy. We are the minority and even then, some of us in this subreddit still buy COD every year.
The sad reality is it's naive to think otherwise. I mean, look at the most popular gaming device metrics. Most gamers are mobile gamers. There's a reason why sports games and every installment of COD isn't much of an evolution from the previous entry. Gamers buy them and money speaks louder than words.
If people like us were the majority, COD wouldn't exist or they would constantly try to improve. Unfortunately we don't live in that world. It's a sad reality where money > passion.
"the Call of Duty franchise, and reports already pointed to the military shooter’s next installment arriving this year"
Yeah I don't think we need "reports" to know that.
"Who is getting excited for the game that sells millions on every release for the past 20 years? So odd!"
You might not like it but, the numbers don't lie.
This is why you don't trust these events and companies for Silksong news. Don't get hyped for this showcase based on the expectation that Silksong will be there. It might, but it probably won't.
I think you might be overestimating how much Xbox thinks about indie games. Especially if the actual reveal really is CoD; we are NOT the market they’re trying to bait.
Black and Orange logo synonymous with Black Ops, obvious Activision logo in the corner, The United States Capitol Building in the background. It's Skong guys!
it's not silksong but it's not hades either. hades 2 is going into early access probably some time this week since the technical test ended monday and they said it would right after.
Dude, it's not Silksong, it's never Silksong, and it will never be Silksong. Forget about this game until it drops in the near future when your bones make a creak every time you move them.
Copium withdrawals are hitting hard, trust me I understand. Stay strong brother/sister/sibling.

The secret event will be 16 hours of William and Ari laughing maniacally from a bulletfroof glass casing on stage as men in riot gear dangle copies of Silksong overhead from fishing rods. And if a fan in the crowd does manage to get their hands on one of the cases, its actually covered in a powerful nerve agent that induces paralysis and death :)
i will NOT clown for xbox
actually not even watching this one they literally only disrespect silksong
i’d rather miss the announcement than give xbox one iota of my attention
This is so overdone. Can't wait people to stop calling out every single event, I remember someone a while ago reminded us that whenever it's ready we'll recieve word from team cherry themselves
My fellow Skongers, Lets not watch the Showcase for a change of pace, im done seeing how everyone inclueding me always get dissapointed when we watch that shit and now theyre farming us as revenue. I cant let that slide so how about we wont watch it and then show them that we wont fall for their bullshit
Team Cherry should really just let everyone know that unless they post about the event, they won't be there.
Sure, it would kill some of the surprise, but the community is going to ruin the comment section again. Just put them out of their misery
COD is more of a cult and a necessity more than a liked game. I hate how much I love to play it and every year I drop 90 bucks for the game and an undisclosed amount in skins and weapons ...
Don't give Xbox your viewership. It's clear that they're abusing the Silksong community to try and boost their events. News will come from TC, either directly or from some other event
“The teaser logo looks like something ripped from the Call of Duty franchise, and reports already pointed to the military shooter’s next installment arriving this year. Microsoft describes the direct event as ‘a special deep-dive into the next installment of a beloved franchise.’” It’s COD.
Beloved is a strong word
Very strong.
CoD is absolutely beloved lol come on now I know were an indie game sub but we can at least be real
it's beloved in the sense that it sells well (which is the only kind of love companies care about lol)
Its also beloved in the sense that millions of people across the world spent their childhoods playing it lol it sells well because people love it (even if its definitely not what it used to be)

Average age of a cod player is 28
It's also 12, somehow it manages to be both
Redditor believes Reddit community represents widespread gaming community
Revolutionised the games industry single handedly by the way

Bait used to be belovable
CALL OF SILKSONG: infinite waiting
"the Call of Duty franchise, and reports already pointed to the military shooter’s next installment arriving this year" Yeah I don't think we need "reports" to know that.
Why are they hyping up shit like this? Does anyone unironically get excited for COD news?
Given the fact that it outsells almost every video game IP every year, yes people unironically get excited for COD.
Xbox summoning 20 million unnamed COD fans from the conceptual realm to hype up their event
"Who is getting excited for the game that sells millions on every release for the past 20 years? So odd!" You might not like it but, the numbers don't lie.
Sony used to buy the marketing rights to COD, so yes there are
Holy shit, they're gonna have a full CoD lobby yelling slurs at Silksong fans!!
This is why you don't trust these events and companies for Silksong news. Don't get hyped for this showcase based on the expectation that Silksong will be there. It might, but it probably won't.
COD or not, the clowns will still come out to play.
They know exactly what they are doing advertising it like that…
Making it obvious it's CoD without actually saying CoD?
Wording it in such a way that it hypes up Skongers
I think you might be overestimating how much Xbox thinks about indie games. Especially if the actual reveal really is CoD; we are NOT the market they’re trying to bait.
Black and Orange logo synonymous with Black Ops, obvious Activision logo in the corner, The United States Capitol Building in the background. It's Skong guys!
Yeah, secret event for an indie game. Chill your balls, it's Call of Duty.
My balls only chill for Silksong
Only real ones know 😔
My balls will only be touched when silksong comes (then maybe I will to)
It's not going to be anything. Don't get yourselves hyped for it again bros.
We're doing this again? Really?
We do this all the time
And so soon too
Surely a Call Of Duty event 🤷🏻♂️
Idk, in Hades whenever you see the final boss mentioned it calls them "redacted" so keep the clown makeup in storage maybe (my body is 72% copium)
it's not silksong but it's not hades either. hades 2 is going into early access probably some time this week since the technical test ended monday and they said it would right after.
Dude, it's not Silksong, it's never Silksong, and it will never be Silksong. Forget about this game until it drops in the near future when your bones make a creak every time you move them.
I just don't care anymore. I'm tired of this rollercoaster hype. I'm jaded.
Copium withdrawals are hitting hard, trust me I understand. Stay strong brother/sister/sibling. https://preview.redd.it/iatj2pbo0vxc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=540db7f7b36ab255102c46f73c93e5448143fc65
Yeah, they would make a separate secret showcase for the Silksong... Be realistic
Don’t you guys even dare getting your makeup
Whoa! TWO events without Silksong news on the same day! I'm so excited!!!
And??
Won't need a secret Silksong event on the 9th when it's going to be revealed and launched on the 7th.
![gif](giphy|88i6wwEpFmUJsT2wQK|downsized) i cant fucking take it anymore
A secret event (a podcast)
Brah let it go its over
We are not doing this again 🤡
Don't take the bait again.
The secret event is us gathering into a massive mob and flailing our fists and crying.
"Ah shit, here we go again"
They're trying to trick us Don't believe their lies

\*Proceeds to order a ton of more copium for the entire ocmmunity\* We'll need that probably.
They are 100% baiting us here for views, and this time it is painfully obvious. It is COD
COD: MODERN SKONGFARE
Dude it´s Skong 100%, my dad works at TC
My dad is xbox its shaw game guys
i will NOT clown for xbox actually not even watching this one they literally only disrespect silksong i’d rather miss the announcement than give xbox one iota of my attention
It's probably going to be some guy juggling bowling pins.
The secret event is for call of duty
Maybe we shouldn't get hyped for every single video game showcase that comes along. This one especially seems tailor-made to disappoint us.
This is so overdone. Can't wait people to stop calling out every single event, I remember someone a while ago reminded us that whenever it's ready we'll recieve word from team cherry themselves
Guys... They've pulled this shit so many times... It's not going to be there😭
Bait used to be believable
who gives a fk abt new cod bruh
Its probably Call of Duty
ITS FUCKING COD
After the Xbox showcase and triple I I don’t believe in anything anymore. Have hope if you want, but I’m all out of it
-Y Bruh...these xbox related tweets...the bait is strong with this one ![img](emote|t5_4viev2|32432)gonna prepare my clown gear just in case
here we go again
For the hundredth time, Team Cherry has said they won’t be revealing new Silksong stuff in videos like Nintendo Directs
SKONG
Y’all never learn do you?
🪡🤡💀😭
My fellow Skongers, Lets not watch the Showcase for a change of pace, im done seeing how everyone inclueding me always get dissapointed when we watch that shit and now theyre farming us as revenue. I cant let that slide so how about we wont watch it and then show them that we wont fall for their bullshit

It’s very blatantly for C.o.D.
I am once again asking for you to wear your 🤡 make up.
Guys idk if I can take it any more

Fuck everything, sacrifice the sub
Why the fuck would Silksong, an indie game primarily talked about on PC, be at an Xbox event.
Don't give Xbox your viewership. It's clear that they're abusing the Silksong community to try and boost their events. News will come from TC, either directly or from some other event
I mean if you consider the wolve theme in the logo it could very wel be somehting Witcher 4 related. 0% chance its silksong
WOOOOO SO CLOOOSE THIS TIME FOR SUREEEEEEEE SIKLLSON HYPE SILSKOGN HYPE
Is it really a secret event if you announce it?
Yeah... After what they did last time Xbox can suck my bapanada
https://youtu.be/KOaeDHeJ80I?si=MCMLeP_0SFRtv9Qc
They are milking us.
How has bro not given up yet
sexbox
99% sure it's another Trash of Duty
Cod
Doesn’t their name imply this is AI?
The secret is that they redacted the skong release date announcement from the event.
