Once Human

Is this game made by NetEase or not?
I don't understand if this game is made by NetEase or not. Also I read some reviews that this game is a chinese spyware and malware. And I also read some news where they talk about spyware. Double eww NetEase and I have really a reason to avoid to install this game. Knowing NetEase, this game will be probably pay to win, microtransactions, predatory, many bugs and servers lag with 300ms. So yeah, it's very probable that this game is by NetEase and NetEase is collecting so many data to ccp and no thanks. I don't wanna they mess with my PC with the GPU and CPU. Oh and if this game had offline singleplayer, this would be a great game. But nope. Of course all NetEase games have online multiplayer only forced and the online multiplayer thing is a cancer. And I know y'all will probably say that this game is not for me, but I don't care, I play whatever I want. But they should add private servers, probably singleplayer only. Oh and they said this game will install the registry keys, probably a real reason to avoid to install this game again lol. This looks too sus for me.

It's made by Starry Studio, which is owned by NetEase - it literally shows both companies logos at the bottom of the games website

Oh boy... I don't know if it's a bad or good thing. NetEase is everywhere, always trying to make good games, but it's not. All NetEase games never been so polished and optimized... And people really trust NetEase?

I trust NetEase like I trust a pair of Rusty Scissors near my balls.

There is no such thing as free, and that's why he's asking questions. That's why this forum exists, telling people to move on because answering hard questions seems to be an obsession on it's own, that and the infamous vote with your wallet syndrome.

be that as it may unlike most freemium games theres no pay to win here everything in shop is cosmetic the game runs fairly well for today's standards and asking questions in a game's discussion part seems completely stupid if u can just play the game and try it yourself or even watch some videos about it you don't seem to understand how many posts get made just to hate on something just cause a studio was involved

I mean, I'm not obsessed. I tried on mobile version, it's hard to say if it's good or not. Oh and I didn't metioned that this is another mobile game ported to PC, I don't know if am I wrong.

No this started on PC phone port came just few days ago.
Ignore ppl that talk about spyware and malware since those see spyware and malware in everything..sorry if someone is so much in fear of something collecting data about you than dont own PC and cellphone and never connect to internet.
as for the bugs im afraid yes the game is buggy at few points.

Asking questions is never a stupid idea, that's how you learn, not asking questions is how you fail.

People here can answer questions that videos do not cover, if not for this discussion I would not have known netease had anything to do with this game.

im all for asking questions (i mean i literally answer alot of them throughout the discussions here) but this one seemed to look for an excuse to hate something before even trying it as happens alot when a studio has a negative rep
What is the point of this useless topic anyway...:steambored:

EXPLOITING AND RENTING MMO'S FOR COMPANIES > how it's work :

-netease do not code anything anywhere. They have the money and that's all.
-they control stuff, they do not create stuff or extremely rarely.
-they lend server to use any product they have anywhere they want.
-each product have a specific contract.
-each product need to add this or that when netease want it.

-99 against 1 than all the overpriced products, pack, skin , bullsh*t are netease specifics

-if netease stop ""publishing"" this game will have no infrastructure on line, no promotion, no web event, no marketing.

---->>>> devs do not own their game anymore until the contract end <<<<----
-each contract is between 1 to 5 years to exploit by the distributor / publisher

- netease do not own anything, they rent everything
A to B depending of the duration of the contract (games, platform, servers ...)

- if the devs are smart they own some stuff : ndd, official website, networks ... BUT if not they are f*ck*d if netease stop the rent.

- netease has his metal gloves on the devs like balls on a silver plate and it is a seriously hard exercise negotiating with a publisher who do not give a sh*t about players but only about milk money.

- netease have already plan for a lot and a lot of milk money event or battle pass or anything who won money from cow players.
- devs have already plan for a lot of event and freemium to keep player base inside the game

i obviously forgot a lot of things here but you have the big pictures.
in 99% of the case, games administrated by ""publisher"" who do not give a sh*t about player what is : 90% of any mmo in history, the game died in 3 to 5 years.

Warcraft, Guid Wars, BDO, are some rare exceptions and everyone want the same success. Warcraft is not a rent. Guild Wars 1 was not a rent. Guild wars 2 is (i think).

And for a perfect example : TERA in Europe was administrated by 3 publishers in a row, and it was good to awful disaster for the player base since year 1.

Shareholders do not give a sh*t about : you, me, everybody except themselves.
They do not even play or even known the product. They do not care if it is a game or a kleenex. What they want is Profits for investing on this stock option : netease.

I know some shareholder who posses some stocks of ubi soft who do not even know what ubi soft do. This is not their problems, they have caviar to buy, because 50 to 75% of the companies who sale stock options do not even know who buy them.

This is an open market for money and profits not a place for creators and gamers.
Welcome to the video game industry in 2025. Now you understand why some of your game are very big cash grab and vanish as fast they appear.
