Part 10/12:
A significant point of praise for Team Cherry is their restraint and moral stance. Having achieved maximum success with Hollow Knight, they could have chosen to maximize profits by pricing Silk Song higher. Instead, they opted for affordability, recognizing their community's support and their capacity to deliver a high-quality, accessible product.
This decision exemplifies that indie success allows for ethical flexibility—developers can prioritize community goodwill without risking financial ruin. It’s a rare, admirable attribute that distinguishes Silk Song from many AAA or even AAAA titles driven by corporate interests.
