Steam Horror Hit "Devotion" Gets Review Bombed For Calling Xi Jinping Winnie
The Pooh In Game
STEAM上的恐怖遊戲"還願"因稱呼習近平為小熊維尼而遭到負評轟炸
"Devotion", a first-person atmospheric horror game depicting the life of a
family shadowed by religious belief, is twitch’s recent hottest horror game.
Developed by Taiwan-based developer Red Candle, "Devotion" is set in a 1980s
Taiwanese apartment complex, uses nostalgic setting to create tension in the
story Inspired by East Asian folklore.
還願是最近twitch直播上最火紅的第一人稱恐怖遊戲,由赤燭遊戲所研發。
其背景位於1980年代的台灣,運用了東亞民俗傳說以及懷舊感的設定。
"Devotion" was number 1 on Steam's Top Selling Games chart for a few days and
has received over 1000 Steam reviews 6 hours after its release with a 92%
positive rating.
還願是這幾天STEAM上最暢銷的遊戲,發售後六個小時收到超過千則留言,具92%好評。
The game was trending on China's social media platforms. Gamers praised the
game last 4 days for its storytelling and tearjerking soundtrack, calling it
"national pride".
在中國的社交媒體同樣造成轟動,玩家盛讚其故事及音樂,稱其為國產的驕傲
4 days after its release, the game is being review bombed by Chinese players
for a red seal on an in-game poster that said, “Xi Jinping Winnie the Pooh
”. The poster was a Fulu talisman (instructions to deities, spirits, or as
tools of exorcism).
然而發售四天後,因為一張符咒上寫著小熊維尼習近平,
因此還願遭到了中國玩家的負評轟炸。
Discussions related to Devotion are currently banned in major Chinese gaming
forums. Recent reviews of the game have taken a drastic negative turn, the
majority of them being from Chinese players. Some instantly refunded after
playing for 2 hours.
現在中國的遊戲論壇大多封鎖了有關於還願的評論,
而遊戲評論也由前面的極度好評轉為負評,多數都來自於中國玩家。
也有些人在玩兩小時後就退款。
Most negative reviews on steam accused Red Candle of supporting Taiwan
independence, insulting their own national leaders, and use the game to
satirize the cult, Xi's party.
多數的負評都在指控赤燭支持台獨、汙辱習近平以及諷刺中共。
Popular Chinese streamers who praised the game all took a u-turn.
Walkthroughs and gameplay are removed.
知名的中國直播主們也都刪了遊戲影片。
The founder of the famous pirate game site 3DM condemned the game for hurting
1.3 billion Chinese's feelings.
知名的盜版遊戲網站3DM創辦人也跳出來指責"還願"傷害了13億中國人的感情。
Steam is currently making a Chinese version and is still being judged by the
board. Chinese players claim if the authorities find out about the mocking
reference, entire Steam could be banned in the country. They can't just tell
their government to knock that off, so their only choice is to get mad at the
game developers.
STEAM中國區仍在籌備中,而中國玩家聲稱如果此事件被有關當局發現,
甚至可能牽連到整個中國區steam,所以他們不得不表態譴責赤燭。
Red Candle's previous game "Detention" is being review bombed as well. The
game's overwhelmingly positive rating turned to negative and the conversion
is happening on a massive scale, spieltimes observed.
赤燭的前作"返校"也正遭受負評炸彈。遊戲由極度好評轉為負評。
下面附上了赤燭的道歉聲明。
