黑粉退散!《幻獸帕魯》社群經理:不用關注我們 對自己好一點吧
2024 年對開發團隊 Pocketpair 而言可謂跌宕起伏:旗下遊戲《幻獸帕魯》於今年 1 月上市瞬間紅遍全球,不僅銷量極佳,甚至成為 Steam 同時上線人數史上第三的遊戲。然而今年 9 月任天堂終於選擇介入並向 Pocketpair 發起專利權訴訟,似乎為團隊蒙上一層陰霾。

遊戲幕後人員向黑粉們呼籲也非首例,就在今年稍早,Ubisoft 旗下射擊遊戲《極惡戰線》執行製作人 Mark Rubin 也在 X(推特)上正面回應了玩家的批評,同樣也請那些較激進的玩家「放下」。
Rushed out? No. What we have is an engine that has only ever been an MMO. And so all of the infrastructure for an FPS has had to be built up from the ground floor. Even CoD started on ID tech which was a shooter engine. Apex started on a shooter engine. But for us we are working…
