Feng Ji spent $70M developing China's first AAA game from scratch, and everybody thought he was nuts. Industry veterans scoffed, investors balked, and even

850M$ revenue on 70M$ budget sounds a huge success.

Unsurprisingly and unfortunately, there are plenty of sexist, dumb chud Gamers™ who don’t care about sexist developers.

it was an intentional mistranslation by a hit piece, who was retalliating after GameScience rejected SBI.

I’ve not seen any evidence it was a mistranslation, and they’ve made multiple similar comments. And there’s a few in-game moments that also reflect that type of casual misogyny. I’ve also seen it commented on by several outlets and players in the genre, so I have no idea what you mean by “hit piece” since I’m not referring to a single article.

Second, why on earth wouldn’t you open with this as your argument instead of “apparently the sexist comment by the devs was right”?? Lol it seems like you support the Gamergate level sexism smh

Critical support for sexist game devs is praxis, apparently /s

You just convinced me to gift a copy for my friends birthday.

Shocking, no argument or refutation from a sexist chud.

it’s a really good game and the sexism is imaginary.
