Former Bioer’s author David Guider, who worked on the choice of Baldour’s Gate 2, Star Wars: Night of the Old Republic, and the first three Dragon Edge Game (including Welguard), recently talked about the problem that “Anti -Fans” in “Anti -Fans”. An interview with Games Radar.
We’ve seen this happening repeatedly: A sub -sets of players and content creators catch some detail that they do not like in a project and make a personal mission to spend the game as much as possible to start the game as possible.
Sometimes they will claim victory with sales flops such as Connor or Dragon Age: Velvegard, and otherwise they will show as if it never happened when a target game reviews and sells well, such as Hasan’s professional shadow.
The Guyder said, “The problem is, if, suddenly, you end up with anti -fans. Then they change by your will, fans who go out and spread your game and give people interested.” “But if you get anti -fans, they do the opposite. They are suddenly determined, see your game a lesson for others who make the same kind of game, right? And that is true, these days, almost all drugs contain some element, but this is especially RPG.”
The Guyder explained that he promotes the issue of how he has seen the “Fandem” culture. He said, “More and more fancing are making things that they are essential for their identity, and if it is necessary to identify them, then anything that affects or insults it, insults them.” “So they invest so much in making it that they imagine, as I said, if they turn into an anti -fon, it is their personal investment in seeing a sudden failure, or seeing the developers who look at this decision.”
According to the Guyder, this type of enmity is urging many game developers to minimize their public presence. This could have a negative impact for developers to talk to non -hostel players or find real criticism needles in the grass bale of angry culture war.
Unfortunately, the media and the cultural environment that produce this behavior are unlikely to change at any time. We are already ready for our next Flash Point. Along with the real concerns about the gender from the marathon’s destiny, the criticism of the artist antirerial and the well -earned criticism of the artist, as well as the criticism of the players, seems to have invested a sub -players in which the guyer has stated.
