Part 6/13:
A Chinese media outlet reported that the developers of Black Myth WuKong were subjected to persistent sexist attacks and slander because they chose to ignore these consultancy influences. The report claims that such consultancy firms interfere in Western and Chinese games by pushing for specific demographic or narrative standards, often involving female protagonists or social justice themes.
The media also alleges that the developers refused to engage with these groups entirely, viewing their guidance and financial demands as extortionate. The report suggests that the real reason behind the targeted media attacks is the developers' refusal to "pay the fees" or accept the ideological tolls imposed by these firms.
