Party Animals developer addresses "confusion" around playing offline angielski

This all stems from the game's description of its offline (and online) multiplayer, which originally read: "Paw it out with your friends both online and offline".

But Party Animals does not have an offline mode. As a result, many owners have left negative comments about the release.

However, Party Animals developer Recreate Games has now stated this has all been a case of mistranslation. In a new blog post, the studio has sought to clear up "confusion" around the game's now-changed description, and said that English was not the team's first language.

"Our intention with this sentence was to convey that you can play with your friends remotely (online), or together in the same location using the same device (offline) through splitscreen," Recreate wrote, admitting its original wording led to a misunderstanding which the studio now regrets.

simple,

Ugh. I can’t believe we waited all this time just for them to lie about local play, add a premium cash store where one skin can cost over the price of the game, and LOOTBOXES in a premium game. What a disappointment.

mindbleach,

Only legislation will fix this.

I wish that I could read Chinese, to check if Recreate Games’ claim of mistranslation holds some ground. It feels fishy though - usually developers are quite cautious with ambiguity; and when a business says that the customers are “confused”, more often than not the customers are quite lucid and complaining about spot on stuff, it’s just that this goes against the business’ best interests.
