The real reason for these negative comments on steam.

I'm a Chinese player, and I'd like to explain the reasons behind the recent negative comments on Steam.

Simply put, this is a misunderstanding caused by real-time translation. During real-time translation, the Chinese translation of Sven's "I will be the first to know the result" was translated as "I already know the result," and his statement "developing games not targeting market share" was translated as "game sales are not important." These two statements together were interpreted as "I knew Astrabot would win, so I want to mock those games that sell well," and were then spread via screenshots.

Additionally, I'm not trying to make excuses for the negative review incident; this matter is, of course, very bad. Most players on the Chinese internet think it's unreasonable to give negative reviews to BG3. However, China has a very large population, with nearly 20 million Chinese BMW players. Even if only 1% of the extreme fans were misled, there would be 200,000 people. Even if only 1% of those gave negative reviews to BG3, there would still be 2,000 people. But the number of negative reviews is actually lower than that, which shows that the vast majority of players are rational.
