Thread 720051865

>On Steam, Silksong is currently suffering from a deluge of negative reviews over the state of its Chinese translation, which disgruntled fans feel is worse than the original Hollow Knight and leans too heavily into archaic speech and pretentious prose. While the game currently has a “Very Positive” rating from reviews in all languages, Hollow Knight: Silksong only has a 51% “Mixed” rating in Simplified Chinese language reviews. This brings the game’s entire average down compared to review languages like English, where it has reached “Overwhelmingly Positive.”

Imagine pissing off the most important consumer demographic lol

imagine charing about the games rating on steam
thanks for founding the game bugmen

Silkcuks lost so hard lel

>>720051865 (OP)
How can Steam be available to Chinese insects if they have the Great Firewall in place? Wouldn't Steam be outlawed and punishable by death if the CCP found out you were using it?

>>720051865 (OP)
NEVER put a chinese language option in your game, those faggots are just gonna get upset at you no matter what.

>>720051865 (OP)
Is the translation really THAT bad in chink speak?

>>720053142
The great firewall doesn't block literally everything and loads of people bypass it with VPNs. Steam works in china, but it doesn't have access to community stuff iirc

>translation bad because it’s too regal and educated and doesn’t have enough Chinese skibidi rizz gyatt unc fr fr equivilents
And our Chin/v/ese posters say their bugs people are supposed to be smart.

>>720051865 (OP)
>Simplified Chinese
Why is Simplified China always so butthurt? And aren't they banned from the internet by their dictator? How are they getting around that?

>>720053474
VPNs, also I doubt Xi has that much power on his own, I feel like he's just the face and tard wrangler of the shadow cabinet

I guess the moral of the story is don't release your game in Simplified Chinese.

>>720051865 (OP)

>English is at 92%

leaving a positive review right now

Can any /v/ chinks verify this and or provide examples?

>>720053664
>already down to “very positive “ after all the botted day 1 shill reviews
Let’s be honest. It’s starting to even tank in English speaking countries.

>>720051865 (OP)
Let's be honest, they're disliking it because you're playing as a bug they can't eat so it breaks immersion because they chew through their monitor before they can begin playing.

>>720053234

So this confirms that half the Chinese are scrubs who only play for the story

>>720051865 (OP)
Moral of the story: just release the game in English.

>>720054596
Then you'll get the same review-bombing in the English-section with "gib Chinese/Russian/Hindi translation!"

>>720054038
>chinks get angry because you didn't dumb down their moonscript enough
You can't make this shit up.

>>720054863

Isn't chinese one of those languages that has like eight gorillion characters each of which express 200 different concepts depending on context?

>>720054992
Probably.
Like all moonrunes, it's retarded.

>>720053142
Basically the CCP turns a blind eye to it. The Steam store mostly works but may have intermittent outages. As >>720053338 says, Steam Community is completely banned.

Also nobody cares if you leap over the Great Firewall as long as you aren't trying to shittalk the government. Having a VPN on your phone is like jaywalking.

>>720054038
Isn't Hollow Knight supposed to be flowery?

>>720051865 (OP)
Chinks should not be allowed to have any effect on steam reviews. literally all these subhumans do is mass 1star with over 9000 bot accounts to any game that does not suck their cocks and the ccp's. Chinks shouldnt even be allowed to interact with anyone outside of China on steam because of their massive censorship.

Its beyond fucking enraging how this keeps happening, chinese steam accounts should only have access to their games thats it nothing else to do with steam not even fucking mods. Because chinks mass report and false dmca any mod that makes them seeth for wtv stupid reason.

>>720054362
WOTL is cancer

I thought bugmen were proud of their english skills? What happened?

>>720055263
Hence why you can now separate reviews by language.
The chinks have been put in the tantrum-corner.

>>720055263
Good thing steam gives us the option to sort reviews by language

>>720054863
You say that like this board doesn't cry endlessly about Dragon quest translations

>>720053142
Great Firewalls don't do anything but make the populace savvy with VPNs.
>Wouldn't Steam be outlawed and punishable by death if the CCP found out you were using it?
No. Steam runs in the CCP's clearnet in a much more limited capacity and global Steam does nothing to you if your IP is somehow still Chinese even off the Great Firewall because they don't care.

>>720051865 (OP)
This is why steam split review languages. Who gives a shit?

You didn't outsmart anyone chang. Go get eaten by an escalator or something.

Plus Xinnie the pooh made the government/people consider him above mao while tanking the country in less than a decade completely fucking up 35-40 years of China fucking building itself up. Hundreds of billions of dollars on made in china projects falling apart within a year million+ population ghost towns litering the country.

A completely fake stock market every chinese company lies and has never made a single profit the ccp is somehow 100x the debt america is in but you know CHINA NUMBAH ONE XITLER MADE CHINA DA STRONGEST RACISTS WHY DOES NO ONE TRust CHINA ANYMORE REEE WHY WONT YOU BuY OuR GARBAGE ANYMORE

HOW DARE YOU SAY CHINA COMMITED THE WORST CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY BY RELEASWING A FUCKING BIOWEAPON THAT FUCKED THE WORLD OVER FOR A FEW YEARS KILLING MORE THAN MAO XITLER NUMBAH WAN

If trump had balls he would go on showing all the videos of ccp chinks across the world spreading covid on camera getting busted and magically running back to china within hours even tho their passports said they did not have covid. Chinese spies have not been smuggling and releasing fucking bioweapons on global farms of fucking poisoning oceans/waterways killing all the fish
How the west completely supports the chinese people but not the ccp which has ruined china just look at every other chinese country living with freedom money and without fear

>>720056636
Why are they scared by a tiny island in the middle of the ocean so much lol

>>720056539
If any government could do that they would have. The internet at a core level is not built to handle information in any way but pseudo-anonymously and all identification and verification happens at a software level, not a bare-metal level, and people interested in replacing the internet with a more incriminating version of it are not smart enough to do that and cannot compel smarter people to do it (supplanting all internet infrastructure would require some catastrophic destruction of the internet as we know it for unrelated reasons; even America taking down their majority share of the internet to do so would still leave enormous swathes of the world connected to eachother and unwilling to replace their own internet just to comply with America wanting censorship and tracking). Pretty much all intelligence agencies shit their pants and scream at TOR nodes because unless they're already set up as a honeypot by those intelligence agencies, they don't exist to anybody that wants to scrape them.

no, britain did that themselves. what continuity? they speak the same language but that's about it.
>I mean, they're trying to do that now, sure.
the demographic changes in britain are unprecedented and have already happened, there's no "trying". no communist country ever brought mass indian migration to themselves (except maybe putin's russia).

>>720058709
>And there's just no trace of any of that anymore is there chang?
in korea, there's barely a trace of anything from before, apart from the stuff japan built from 1910 - 1945
in singapore, there is really nothing from before, it was a completely new city built by chinese immigrants after the british left. whatever local malay culture was there is not even known to history books.

around 10% of germany died during the 30 years war, due to mass killings and rapes by every other army in europe. that didn't cause german culture to die, but instead strengthened it.

it means friend and both 朋 (peng) and 友 (you) mean friend on their own. due to the way contemporary chinese works, two characters with the same meaning are used together for that meaning.
confucius famously wrote 有朋自远方来,不亦乐乎?
where peng refers to friend here, so it has not changed its meaning since then.

Don'rlt worry bugfriends: just a few more years of faking test scores, fraudulent university diplomas, and aI generated CVs and everyone will believe you're just as smart and capable as white people.

Ads for VPNs have been exploding all over the west in recent years, you don't see Youtubers and streamers shilling NordVPN all the time? Another big privacy boom thanks to ads choking the internet all the time, and regional content availability on places like Netflix.

>leans too heavily into archaic speech and pretentious prose
Just like English localizers?

It's more that it's generic. The equivalent of
>Fantasy setting it must be medieval
And then the setting will have trains or other distinctly not middle ages shit.

>most important consumer demographic
>the game costs in China 50% of the price in Europe and USA
One western consumer is literally worth two Chinese.

>>720063290
>what is product testing
Yeah the publishers should have done that before charging money.
>steam refund is a thing
Unless you are a poorfag your time is worth more than the money. Why quietly refund and slink away like a scared little cuck after getting raped. You can instead leave a negative review like a man to promote higher standards while informing and helping others.

>how could the studio know that their hired translators did a bad job if they don't speak the language?
Probably from the negative reviews.

>>720061827
Is that a good or bad thing?

If you can't understand English you have no business playing vidya, or even using the internet, at all. If it were up to me English competency would be a prerequisite for voting rights and university admissions, even in my country. Not that the Chinese have any rights to begin with but still...

Frankly a Chinese version shouldn't even exist. It's a foul, unimportant, and offensively ugly language.

>Can't the government somehow compel ISPs to block access to VPNs?
this happened in Russia, every ISP is required to route their traffic through special firewall (this includes DPI), popular VPN protocols are kill, and proper proxies require a billion hoops to work, of course we have chinks to thank for the technology

Well, is the menu supposed to say "Restaurant Menu" or "Game Menu" at the screen where you select things like "Continue Game" or "Settings"?

>>720054362
if that's the equivalent complaint, then I can definitely see where they're coming from.

>>720066262
>How poetic

>>720066262
What's the problem with this? The only remotely obscure word here is "succor". It sounds like a fantasy epic and it is a fantasy epic. Makes sense to me.

If you've ever in your life picked up a book, the FFT translation is infinitely less retarded than the average fantasy novel is.

>>720055193
It is. Not quite Shakespeare/Melville/Joyce-level retarded, but definitely more Victorian than modern.

>>720060421
You're first.

>>720061317
Yeah, 90% for both seems more accurate

>>720051865 (OP)
The chinks are angry about a shit translation. The other reviews are 92%+. Just imagine being one of these retarded little sheep who give these clickbait articles clicks, lmao. Couldn't be me.

>>720053142
me when i believe everything im told by the american govt (they say it through "free" media so its ok)

>>720066598
obscurity is not the issue, and this is always the strawman that gets brought up whenever anyone says that they don't like the WotL translation, that they must be illiterate and don't understand it
the characters talking like renfaire performers in this overwrought style is campy as hell, when the original translation's style was more direct and punchy, and therefore more memorable.
but yeah, "it sounds like fantasy epic!" is clearly what self-impressed english major localizers were going for, and if style over substance is what you like about that genre's writing, then good for you

>>720061897
the stupid shit you people believe is staggering

Don't they have their own special containment Steam specifically so nobody has to deal with their bullshit?

>>720067852
They had their own containment country too and look how well that worked at keeping them from fucking up everyone else's nations.

>>720063761
>the game costs in China 50% of the price in Europe and USA
wtf china rules

>>720067852
That's stupid. There are many reasons why someone may choose to play a game in Chinese outside of living in China. If a the Chinese translation is bad then that knowledge shouldn't be locked to China.

>>720068195
Yeah there are people who play Chinese translations for academic reasons like books or movies.

>>720059884
ah yes because i was dying to look up tiannamen square porn

Ban them from western steam. Let them stay on some horrible china only steam.

lol oh now journalists care about the chinese market.

>>720051865 (OP)
I wouldn't take mainland Chinese opinions on art and culture serious. They listen to awful modern music and steal stuff from other cultures. The only good stuff is the stuff that survived the cultural revolution and the stuff inspired by that like Chinese martial arts flicks. The entire Chinese society is one of fraudsters, cheaters and corner cutters.

Why is it always chinks? You literally can't please them.

It has insane regulations, so many of them in fact a lot of vidya companies pay like $10k+ for you to work for them as Steam China release assistant
