@sheyi_williams@Profit_Lx It’s true( the rumor is real) but it’s not true, if you kill the person on purpose then it’s murder, which is the death penalty, with fines be compensation of course.
@Profit_Lx I heard that in China, if you hit someone, it's better to kill them off completely because if they're still alive, the compensation costs are way more expensive (OR SO THEY SAY)
Phantom Blade Zero is currently in the intense, final stages of development. With the time we have left, we are pouring every available resource into pushing every aspect of the game to the absolute limit of our capabilities.
We are fully aware that a profound technological revolution is unfolding around us. However, to this day, every single piece of content in our game has been crafted by the hands of real artists. We will not use AI visual tech that could alter our artists' original creative intent.
Our character models are built upon 3D scans of our phenomenal cast, who also provided the facial capture performances. The voice acting in both Chinese and English has been meticulously refined by our dedicated actors and directors, complete with full lip-syncing for both languages.
The prototypes for our weapons are drawn from the vast arsenal of traditional Chinese weaponry. Sometimes, to better understand how a weapon's weight and length impact movement, we have master swordsmiths forge real replicas.
Our combat is motion-captured by over twenty highly experienced martial artists. To capture the most authentic kung fu techniques, we consult directly with the masters and inheritors of traditional martial arts schools. When we needed authentic swordplay, we invited sword masters from Mount Emei; when we needed lion dance choreography, we brought in lion dance masters from Guangdong.
Of course, we also visited many stunning locations across China, from ancestral halls in Fujian to ancient towns in Zhejiang, and even old steel factories in Beijing. We scanned these places and reimagined them in unexpected combinations to build something truly original: the visual identity we created and defined as Kungfupunk.
The game also features a series of guiding maps. These are not AI-generated, nor are they digital paintings at all. They were hand-drawn using Chinese brushes and Xuan paper (rice paper) by young artists from the Chinese Painting department at the Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA).
We firmly believe that human artistry is not merely a means for creating value; it is the value itself.
S-GAME didn't just hire a group of developers to make a game; rather, in our pursuit of continuously building an exceptional, passionate team, we decided to make a game that everyone here could be deeply proud of.
We can't wait for you all to experience that difference in Phantom Blade Zero in just a few months. Thank you!

@HoldRonix@pbzero_official This is 丈八蛇矛,from East Han dynasty, which lasted from year 25-220. There are countless other weapons that looked like this.Your Indonesian pride didn’t appear until 1360. You are saying Roman Empire stole tech from Turkey,you need to have a drink and chill out.
Your weapon examples are clearly heavily inspired/lifted from uniquely Indonesian/Javanese weaponry, a pride of their culture.
Even the hilt are almost exact match.
Yet you claim its "all traditional chinese".
Give proper respect and credits where its due, since you are monetizing their heritage.
Just trust me you'll be fine~ When I back in North America, I feel it... another version of Hydrobox😌
The new North American version of Hydrobox is UL standard, and has been checked and accepted! #HYDROBOX#CryptoMining#bitcoin
Artwork at my local mall glorifying... whatever you want to call what China is doing re: the virus. It angered me and I struggled to control my mood for the rest of the evening, through family dinner. My reaction was visceral. I am not sure how to handle it.
@spectatorindex My friends, please remember that even if China has 10,000 aircraft carriers, you have nothing to worry about. We never invaded any country after WW2, but one country invaded 22, who is the threat to the world? I don't think it's China
