Phlegmish posted:Yeah, all of these knock-off mobile games are just a random collection of gameplay concepts and buzzwords. They might as well be AI-generated themselves at this point. It's insane just how many of them there are, and I can't imagine 90% of them are able to make a profit at all, even with the near-zero effort put into them. GDC talk on it, from some devs who tried that business model as a joke. https://youtu.be/E8Lhqri8tZk

You have "research", labour, materials, factories all being paid for that might produce an acceptable item and then devaluing sometimes almost entirely by covering it in indecipherable crap which either ruins trust with crappy packaging or destroys the actual visuals of the item. The trick is that most bootlegs aren't designed to be sold to native English speakers, but in places like Hong Kong, Latin America, or other similar areas where you're far more likely to get people who aren't fluent in the language and just see Roman letters and assume 'that looks correct', like some random American rear end in a top hat with a chinese character tattoo on their arm. Since Americans aren't the main market there, the aforementioned $50 for proofreading wouldn't produce $50 (or more) of profit so it is literally a loss for very little good reason. On the flipside, if you ARE marketing to Americans, being indistinguishable from the real thing will get you smacked with all the copyright lawsuits, and being written like you have no idea what the language means gives you just enough plausible deniability to weasel out of immediate consequences.

the way it says "pet cooling" makes me think you pop the back of your dog open like a battery-operated stuffed animal and slot two cooling bars in like AA's, and only then will your dog operate properly

I went from a passive cooled dog to a full liquid cooling setup and it makes a huge difference.

I figured it was intentional, like scams that have grammar issues and typos in them on purpose. The kind of people who would find fault with the product will notice the typos and not bother to buy it in the first place. You end up with higher review scores, then, because those people aren't buying and reviewing your physical product.

That's... they couldn't be bothered to actually build the robot-looking bits, they just stuck stickers onto the flat bits. That's impressively lazy and dumb.

Huzzah! posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=us8CtdZBMMg I feel the opening crawl needs to be posted here, just for the incredibly bad grammar: quote:"The pretty and virtuous girl Sodoma was Donkey Kong's friend, she was the spirit what charge of all the plant in the world, she distributed sunlight air and water to each plant everyday, so that they could grow up healthy and strongly...... Also somehow a gorilla not being able to eat turns it into "a monkey". That makes total sense.
