Just funny and dumb.
Still has 96% recent and 96% overall positive reviews and an “overwhelmingly positive” overall rating.
I don’t think they’re making much of a dent. The article is pretty unclear though on why Chinese gamers are mad, other than that there was a possible “dodgy translation.”
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 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.
Have you played Astro Bot? It’s phenomenal. It is the best non-Mario 3D platformer ever made. And possibly in the Top 3 if you include Mario.
- 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)
Is that with Steam’s “recent off-topic activity” system turned on, or off?
Steam introduced something where if they see a large scale of reviews in a short period that express thoughts unrelated to the game itself, they exclude those reviews from the default view of the page.
