I mean, the Chinese players aren’t totally wrong, support from sales IS an important metric. Swen definitely should have worded that better. But is that worth a negative review, IDK. This seems to line up with Chinese culture as a whole though, which is usually polar opposite to the West.
rampant capitalism over workers’ desires lines up with Chinese culture?
I think my tastes have remained mostly the same, it’s the industry that is losing me as a customer for two reasons:
more and more games now are based on shit that I hate - multiplayer, GaaS, micro transactions, copy and paste gameplay mechanics with new coats of paint, etc.
studios that used to make my favorite games have really gone downhill over the last decade, like Bethesda, Bioware, and maybe CDPR (hopefully the cp2077 release was just a fluke but we’ll see).
