The gist of it seems to be a few Chinese gamers are upset that Black Myth: Wukong didn’t win game of the year and combined with a bad translation made it seem like Sven, who was presenting, instead of his anti-greed speech was translated into basically saying that he knew who was going to win, like he knew beforehand, and game sales aren’t important, and some took that ask he was mocking Black Myth for not winning.
Just language barriers and general gamer stupidity all around.
I mean, it’s a blip but they were trying.

I’m pretty sure nationalistic pride is also a factor. Wukong is not just a game they like, it’s their game.
The Chinese have glass hearts. You can see it whenever Taiwan gets mentioned as an independent nation.
I understand being upset if your game didn’t win, but your game came out the same year as Baldur’s Gate 3. I mean come on, you had to know…
