Support NeoGAF

[Nickolaidas]

Fuck, IGN. Now I want to buy five copies instead of just one.

 

[Senua]

if the translation is true, the dev seems like a weirdo.

 

[Saber]

Those phrases gonna do some positive marketing for the game.

LOMBAX TITTIES LOMBAX TITTIES LOMBAX TITTIES

These lot need to man up.

Western gaming press:

The chrysanthemum tea thing got be real good.

 

[AmuroChan]

Why is ign even bothered about this? Chinese devs are weird who the fuck cares

They need the clicks.

 

[jimmypython]

Just saw those posters....regardless of the texts (most of which are pretty harmless tbh), man the graphics are not very easy on the eyes lol

 

[DeepEnigma]

Western gaming press:

The chrysanthemum tea thing got be real good.

Don't forget the masturbatory articles and memes shared by them for an 8 foot tall big ass bitch.

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

Isn't the development studio Chinese?

What society/ culture are we comparing to measure the sexism allegation against?

This seems like classic case of United States-specific wokeism applying their sensibilities and what it culturally acceptable to them and expecting every other culture to be the same. Not how the world works, and so we end up with stories like this.

 

[Sgt.Asher]

Hopefully they put the Kingdom of Thirsty Women in the game. Best part of journy to the west.

 

[ahtlas7]

Hit piece by the usual shake down “media”.

 

[Roxkis_ii]

I'm starting to think these people have an outrage quota. Got to find someone to cancel or they're forced to touch grass.

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

... Ok... but can I play with myself?

That's the real question.

 

[March Climber]

My response to all of this:

I advise others to not fall for this social media 'my side/your side' garbage again, or else they'll have you all buying and playing a 7/10 Ubisoft experience like they did with Hogwarts Legacy.

I don't care about internet sleuths, I don't care about tweets from years ago/random comments heard, and I don't care about defending or attacking anyone....

I just want a good video game, not a 70 dollar way of giving a middle finger to an irrelevant online group.

 

[Saber]

Why is ign even bothered about this? Chinese devs are weird who the fuck cares

I think they need to reach a quota, so they search on google things to get triggered to fill it.

 

[Labadal]

"Suffering" from sexism? Is it an illness or disease, now?

 

[Sportbilly]

Why the fuck are IGN 'investigating' some decade-old Tweets from a couple of immature guys at an indie Chinese developer?

 

[Hugare]

If we had this kind of scrutiny for everything that we consume, society would go to shit

Bought that sandwich from that store? The owner is cheating his wife. Guess you cant buy from that store anymore.

Have an Iphone? Apple has slaves in China making those. Guess you have to cancel Apple too.

This is why I hate cancel culture, 'cause they are a bunch of hypocrites.

And this is why I dont give a damn about how the sausage gets made

 

[cormack12]

So.

Are these guys hiring and where do I apply.

 

[Tsaki]

What the hell. These guys give zero fucks.

 

[DeepEnigma]

What the hell. These guys give zero fucks.

Imagine telling China what to do.

a third promo […] stated that "fatties should fuck off".

I approve of this message.

 

[Danjin44]

My bigger worry is this game still not have proper release date, same with Stellar Blade.

 

[Phase]

These lot need to man up.

But they're incapable of that. They must blame external things, always.

 

[Mister Wolf]

"Suffering" from sexism? Is it an illness or disease, now?

I've been suffering from sexism since the day I was born with a XY chromosome and the United States government decided it was mandatory that I enlist in the selective service. These people who share a similar ideology only complain about the sexism and inequalities within society that they do not benefit from while remaining mute and unwilling to take action against the examples of sexism that do benefit them. They want supremecy. This is why myself and many others respond with apathy towards cries of sexism.

 

[clintar]

Oh no!

Mehh not enough tits for me. I prefer monster musume lamias

 

[Esppiral]

Is this game ever gonna be released?

 

[DeepEnigma]

Is this game ever gonna be released?

Those should be the real articles.

 

[IFireflyl]

It's not twitter banned in China in first place?

It's the one thing the Chinese government gets right.

 

[Little Chicken]

Incels are the same everywhere

 

[TheInfamousKira]

Don't support people who don't present themselves on the altar of The Message and speak positively, kindly, accountably and without microagressions!

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

I’m just glad I made it through high school and most of college before social media was really a thing.

Just imagine if everything you said was permanently archived and searchable so that any loser could dig it up and ruin your reputation.

 

[Bkdk]

embarked on an extensive diatribe about how games made for women and men are completely different, due to their biological differences.

Isn't this should be something to be celebrated? That should how it should be in gaming, games made for men should be full of sexy girl chars, porn, blood, heavy focus on combat, harem relationships etc. while for girls, it is different. Different games focused on various groups of gamers.

 

[Apocryphon]

"fatties should fuck off".

Hard to argue with this one.

I’ll buy their game despite the dev being a bit childish.

 

[Ribi]

China don't care... And aren't IGN the ones that were allowed to do first looks for this game? Ye way to fuck that up

[DannyDanger]

LMAO

No comments on the article? Curious to know how readers would react. I feel like they'd laugh too

 

[Kikorin]

Imagine Americans getting mad at these kind of things, fulfilling their boring media and games with shit that rest of the world can't care less about, and in meantime China is ready to conquer the gaming world (well, all the world more probably) giving zero fucks about these "accusation", since they can't even have access to western social media lol

[ShadyAcshuns]

Sounds like a bunch of little Krystal nothing burgers to me.

 

[proandrad]

While immature for a workplace, this didn't warrant an entire article on the front page of ign.com.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Western game "journalists"world be mad if they found out everything they post on is banned in China and there isn't the tiniest fucking thing they can do about it

Also Asian cultures are super conservative and traditional, Western wokeness not only doesn't exist but would be laughed at there is they ever found out about it

[Ansphn]

Why cant men want to have sex with attractive women?

 

[LordOfChaos]

Most recently, a technical artist from Game Science, Daiwei, suggested in a post on Zhihu (the Chinese equivalent of social question-and-answer website Quora) that a female character from Black Myth: Wukong—known as the snake spirit—can be masturbated to by "looking at her more". "Although I'm not used to the snake neck, I can still nurture that fetish,"

Eh, would.
