That story doesn’t even make sense…
The company created a game and somebody without any tie with it come asking $ millions?
I mean I can ask $ million for any developer that doesn’t mean I will get a news headline about it… let’s not talk about getting the $$$
lol
It feels like somebody is making up story imo.

I don't believe anything this Pirate Nation loser says
I mean if it was a contractor asking money for something… well I can believe.
But a random without any tie with the company come and ask money to them? No matter the reason it doesn’t make sense.
Seems like something somebody says / do just get attention independent of if there is some true story behind the scenes.
I need to see some real receipts before I bury someone.
Didn't know Pirate nation is a bad source. How do I lock this Thread?
Need more real receipts

The mere idea of Sweet Baby existing is insulting to me, congrats to these Chinese devs if they were willing to not fall for it, if this is true they'll have gained my respect.
I haven't played any Chinese games and don't have big expectations of them but being able to not fall for this BS is a good sign. I want to play games by creators that have a vision for their own games and don't need to hire consultants to tell them what their games is going to be about.

Ofc this starts up after the news the Xbox version won't make it in time.
Why the fuck would an American entity have influence on a Chinese dev based in China under CCP control.

I thought the scammers were Canadian based? I wouldn't fuck with China as they would probably figuratively strangle a company trying to fuck with them.
For Zau, the devs hired a North American company for sensitivity of using African culture in the game. Let that sink in. They might as well hire me to help with Vanuatu culture as Sweet Baby and myself have a similar respective knowledge. Fucking zero.
The anti china sentiment in this place is still strong to the point they rather side with sweet baby inch than that developer because theyre from china
Wake up people chinese and asia market are huge
So far SBI only had their grip on american and western europe developer
$ 7 million is peanuts to the global presence they can get in the future if they can get their grip on more eastern china, korean, japanese developer like tencent, square enix, capcom etc

Its on weibo and gaining alot of traffic there
In china you can get arrested for spreading missinformation anyone reporting fake news can get arested there so anyone who report this must have absolute certainty about this story
This is most likely false and an example of glorious CCP propaganda but we have to consider that having an entity like SBI on board does prevent negative articles from your friendly neighbourhood news websites like gamer, cucktaku, polygon etc. Guess the consultancy grift has finally reached the shores of gaming in full force. I used to work for ZS and holy shit the amount of effort spent on to increase billable hours was so egregious, Consultants are leeches in human form
Man the reaction in this place is the complete opposite to those on twitter
Yeap... random twitter using VPN getting arested in China...
Yeap the correct take is to believe in what you read on twitter when 99.99% of the posts there are fake.
The story doesn't hold up... it is really a bad story.
We kinda get the point now
Youre from the west
You only trust and read gaming news from western website/ western twitter acount
So weibo or any other eastern acount source have lower credibility in your eyes right
