What is a white paper?

Truely the realism that games should go for

I think cutting the playtest group by half for silksong shows in the games balencing, I did throw in a couple other games to help people see scale better

I will also mention that there could be other playtest things that won't be included here like demos or very breif playtests

For Dark Souls, there was a 14 people in QA - same with Elden Ring.

Pokemon sword had 60 ...but some of them were weird.

Hollow Knight had 24 playtesters

Cobalt Core, made by a smaller indie studio called Rocket Rat Games, had 24

Correction, Silksong had 10

this includes QA/playteter management

With that said, I'd have to go through other game's credits to see how much they were playtested to really confirm this.

My expirence playtesting is largely with board games, althrough I do also have some expirence with Colbalt Core modding, a video game.

7 seems low for Silksong, espically considering team cherry wanted this to be a similar difficulty to HK back in 2020.

Clarification for that second sentence, as I tried to reformat it but didn't do all the way.

I helped playtest an expansion for a board game for a small indie company(cardboard alchemy), and it had roughly 19 people + the people who played a couple of games.

The credits has 7 people (roughly) listed as play testers, which is still really low. Like a small indie board game having more playtesting.

I did end up enjoying the game, but a lot of the bosses is just waiting out for an attack that you can punish with *a* swing.

Most of the enimies are fine, including some double damage attacks, but there are some I'm annoyed with, as thry have a war of nutrion design.
