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

I mean, it’s a blip but they were trying.

The gist of it seems to be a few Chinese gamers are upset that Black Myth: Wukong didn’t win game of the year and combined with a bad translation made it seem like Sven, who was presenting, instead of his anti-greed speech was translated into basically saying that he knew who was going to win, like he knew beforehand, and game sales aren’t important, and some took that ask he was mocking Black Myth for not winning.

Just language barriers and stupidity all around.

Just language barriers and general gamer stupidity all around.

I’m pretty sure nationalistic pride is also a factor. Wukong is not just a game they like, it’s their game.

  The Chinese have glass hearts. You can see it whenever Taiwan gets mentioned as an independent nation.

    Balatro is the objectively correct choice.

    Because the Game Awards hates indie games.

    Learn basic grammar, FFS. You make yourself look like a 12-year-old with learning disabilities by failing to get simple words right.

  It’s decently-made (rarely the case with new titles in current year)
  
  Concentrated industrial-grade nostalgiabait
  
  Doesn’t require the player to be a skilled Gamer
  
  Judges determine the majority of the score (who are probably not skilled Gamers)

    These pathetic conspiracy theories should’ve died out in the 90s.

  Have you played Astro Bot? It’s phenomenal. It is the best non-Mario 3D platformer ever made.

    That has no relevance to how good and deserving of an award it is.

  The people who review the games are the same people who vote for the winner, and Astro Bot was the best reviewed game of the year.

I understand being upset if your game didn’t win, but your game came out the same year as Baldur’s Gate 3. I mean come on, you had to know…
