Senior Game Designer last year’s action adventure Control Sergey Mokhov, Ukrainian by birth, criticized the book “Games time!” Andrei Podshibyakin about the golden age of gamedev in the CIS. Employee Remedy entertainment I didn’t like that in the description next to the words “Russian” and “domestic” there are such games as World of tanks and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.created in Belarus and Ukraine, respectively. The developer wrote his message with the claims in Ukrainian, after apologizing to English-speaking fans.
“I just want to apologize to my English-speaking readers – I just could not go past this book and say nothing. They are there, I apologize, completely […] (foul language) in the Russian Federation? “. Stalker and World of Tanks in their understanding -” domestic games “? And can borscht also Russian?”, – he wrote.
Reply Mokhov decided the chief editor of the publication Stratege.ru Denis Sidelyak (Varyag_Ericsson) He indicated that the book “Time to play!” it is not a collective or state work, so it would be more correct to ask questions to the author, to Podshibyakin himself, and not to write about the whole of Russia.
Remedy commented on this tweet with another harsh message.
“Well, firstly, I don’t know what kind of bald […] (foul language), secondly, no one says that the work is state-owned, well, thirdly, you have a Butchert for Mother Russia, or what? “
Sidek turned out to be a resident of the Ukrainian city of Lviv and noted the strangeness of Mokhov’s wording, given that Remedy Entertainment also works on the Russian market.
“I live in Lviv, in Ukraine. This is firstly. Secondly, you are a representative of a Finnish company, which also works on the Russian market, so it’s at least strange for you to blame abstractly and publicly for something abstract “You are there in the Russian Federation,” when there is a specific author. “
This was the end of the conversation.
“Ok, everything is clear! Goodbye!”, Mokhov said goodbye, blocking the editor of Stratege.ru.
