"Depression Journey" was able to pass the Steam review and successfully put it on the shelves, and the praise of these game media played a big role.

As a result, there are rational and objective players who leave messages under the post.

"I just played Depression Journey for a while. In less than ten minutes, I couldn't stand it and turned off the game and applied for a refund. In good conscience, this is not a qualified game, and it focuses on education and popular science significance. Games, however, should be entertaining and used to bring joy to players. Makers can express their ideas in the game, but they can't put the cart before the horse. It's logical that the game has received a lot of bad reviews and basically doesn't sell. It's ridiculous that Miss Zoe attributes the reason for her game's unpopularity to her feminine identity. ”

However, this kind of rhetoric, which is based on objective facts, was quickly drowned out by the invective of Zoe's supporters.

"Die, garbage straight!"

"Are you blind, why can't you see the serious discrimination that women suffer in the field of gaming! You're going to hell!"

"You must be a barbarian living in the Middle Ages who thinks it is reasonable to buy and sell women as goods!"

"You fool who doesn't respect women, in reality you must be a loser with no job and no girlfriend, poor masculinist!"

The extreme feminists in the post are becoming more and more crazy and unreasonable, attacking any voice that disagrees with them.

So the other party also rolled up his sleeves and put aside the lower limit to scold him.

And those rational and objective voices are drowned in endless saliva.

This scolding war in the Steam community quickly spread and sparked heated debates all over the Internet.

And the game media with a keen sense of smell immediately made a big fuss about this matter.

However, these media do not have any discipline, and in order to attract attention, the report needs to be impartial, objective, and truthful, and all of them are left behind.

The media ignored Zoe Quinn's suspicion of using her female identity to make a profit, did not investigate whether "Depression Journey" was a qualified game, and ignored the vexatious and offensive statements of ultra-feminists in this conflict.

The media portrayed Zoe Quinn as a victim of discrimination and suppression in the traditional field of men because of gender, praised Miss Zoe's talent as a game producer with exaggerated words, and then quoted her post to criticize the "straight male cancer" game represented by "Oriental Gensokyo Story".

A signed article by IGN, a well-known gaming publisher, wrote: "East Asia is deeply influenced by ancient Chinese Confucianism, and the strict patriarchal class ideology is deeply rooted. Video games are supposed to be the most diverse and inclusive entertainment and cultural industry, but unfortunately, our Dongying peers are like living 300 years ago, lacking modern ideas that respect women. I hope that the development team of "Oriental Gensokyo Story" will reflect on this issue and make a game that fully expresses women's rights in the future. ”

Subsequently, IGN downgraded the game rating of Oriental Gensokyo Story from 9.1 to 6.1, citing the game's obvious anti-female content.

Other game media have followed suit, and "Oriental Gensokyo Story" has been degraded from an excellent work with an average score of more than 9 points to a garbage game with an average score of less than 6 points.

At this time, three days have passed since Zoe Quinn posted in the Steam community.

Qin Han only had a bystander attitude towards the development of events at the beginning. After all, extreme feminism is mainly rampant in Europe and the United States, and he lives in Dongying and has little influence.

Moreover, as a game producer, he has long been mentally prepared for being attacked by these extreme feminists.

Because of the gaming world in the previous life, this kind of thing often happened.

Blizzard's "Overwatch", because the posture of hunting the sky is too xing, was complained of objectifying women, so Blizzard quickly corrected it.

The production company of the "The Witcher" series, cd_project, has also been in a lot of trouble by extreme feminists. When "The Witcher 2" was released, it caused an uproar because the heroine Triss appeared in Playboy magazine. Later, when the new work "Cyberpunk 2077" was developed, because of the release of a concept art - a female cyber in underwear, she was accused of sexism against women.

The sinicization group of "Kerbal Space Program" was accused of discrimination by extreme feminists because of the sentence "If you don't have a mun, you are not a hero": "Why use a masculine word like a good man?"

In addition, there are many examples of extreme feminists being vexatious in the gaming world.

So when he encountered something similar in this world, Qin Han was not surprised.

As a Chinese player, he has grown up in prejudice and discrimination since he was a child, and even Yang Yongxin, a magnetic explosive infantryman, has seen a lot of battles, and is not afraid at all.

"President, the ratings of "Oriental Gensokyo Story" in major game media in Europe and the United States have dropped by more than one-third, which is a very big impact. What should we do?" Kyoko Saito called, her tone full of anxiety.

"Don't worry. Let those Europeans and Americans make a fuss slowly. Dongying and Huaxia's game media, except for a few who want to take the opportunity to grandstand, have not lowered the rating of "Oriental Gensokkyo Story" because of the so-called 'discrimination against women'. Moreover, Steam sales have not been affected. The guys who shout 'misogynism' are not the same as the target group of our game. ”

Qin Han comforted him, and Kyoko Saito was a little relieved.

However, as soon as the vice president hung up the phone, Nobuyoshi Koyama of Sony Interactive Entertainment called again.

"Teacher Qin Han, are you okay?"

"Of course, no problem, it's just some boring people. ”

"That's good. Ignore this matter, and it will pass slowly. Alas, those so-called liberals in Europe and the United States are simply unreasonable. To be honest, Sony has encountered this kind of thing before, when "Ratchet & Clank" was actually complained by animal protection organizations, saying that we abuse animals! You have to calm down, if necessary, I will help you find a few helpers from Sony's public relations department. ”

Sony and Terracotta Entertainment have just reached a cooperation agreement, and if this matter gets bigger, Sony's reputation will also be damaged, so Nobuyoshi Koyama is very concerned.

"Then it's a hassle for the little mountain mulberry. Qin Han said.

Having hung up the phone, he prepared to log on to Twitter and publish the news that he was working with SHAFT and participating in the animation production.

Who knew that Qin Han glanced under his tweet, only to find that it had already become a miasma, and it was a mess.

Netizens from various countries, divided into two camps, gamers and feminist supporters, used different languages to abuse and attack each other, and the miasma became a mess.

Qin Han, as the producer of "Oriental Fantasy Hometown Story", the fire of war finally burned on his head.
