Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 Is Being Review Bombed By Chinese Gamers After The Game Awards

Only ~500 negative reviews… What a nothingburger article lol.

I mean, the Chinese players aren’t totally wrong, support from sales IS an important metric. Swen definitely should have worded that better. But is that worth a negative review, IDK. This seems to line up with Chinese culture as a whole though, which is usually polar opposite to the West.

TheGamer… I can’t say the majority of articles I have personally seen from this site haven’t been poor quality bait articles like this one, so I am going to put this one in the pile with Kotaku, IGN, and the others.

rampant capitalism over workers’ desires lines up with Chinese culture?

  No, I meant that them leaving negative reviews because of what was said is a pretty typically Chinese thing to do. Genshin Impact has been plagued by this for pretty much its entire existence. If you ask anyone, the Chinese playerbase is viewed as incredibly toxic because of this.
