A more than deserved award, but it seems that it has not gone down well with Feng Ji, the CEO of Game Science. The head of the Black Myth developer: Wukong has written a long statement sharing their impressions about the verdict and criticizing the criteria used by the jury.
“There is some disappointment, some regret and, above all, the end of certain illusions. This year the nominated games were excellent, but honestly, I didn't understand what the criteria were for choosing GOTY. I feel like I came in vain!“, laments the person in charge, while celebrating that the action title was nominated in four different categories.
“When you have so much confidence in something and you don't receive the expected recognition, it is normal to have a little anger. (…) Two years ago I already had my speech ready for when I went on stage for the GOTY, and it turns out that I didn't do it. used,” explains Feng Ji, who confesses to being aware of the disappointment that Black Myth fans have expressed: Wukong for not taking the prize.
However, he also wanted to highlight the enormous success of his work, since “it is the inevitable result of Chinese culture, Chinese talent, the Chinese business environment, the Chinese video game industry and its encounter with players from all over the world.” Whatever your next project is, Game Science will take it on with the best of will.
“In this world there is nothing difficult, there are only people willing to try“, is the phrase from Journey to the West that Feng Ji has shared, which means that “when you have the attitude of facing challenges, then challenges and failures are no longer so scary.”
