It's probably all because it didn't win the GOTY in the games awards so all the fanboys went to make their game win something.

The game is not goty material, and for how shitty the devs are, they don't deserve crap.

Who cares about the GOTY?

I'd say Chinese people don't.

They didn't care so much they review bombed the winner...

And also Baldurs Gate 3 for some reason

And the lead dev didn’t care so much that he wrote a goty acceptance speech in the middle of the development cycle, then cried about not winning.

It was a translation error though

Oh so I guess the review bombing of BG3 that it kicked off was just a translation error also?
