Balan Wonderworld Receives Stick Return to Epilepsy Trigger Scenes

Balan Wonderworld is released today and so far, comments about the game have not been the best and we are not just talking about mixed reviews - for the few user reviews - no, we re talking about a serious reaction. was discovered that the game includes kinematics and boss fights that could potentially trigger convulsions, dizziness, vomiting or other symptoms for the epileptic players of the game.

The first reports on the potential epileptic triggers of the game came from the same GameInformer journalist who had raised concerns about the triggers of CyberPunk 2077 when he released in December, Liana Ruppert.

Ruppert tweeted his worries last night before publishing an article on the subject on the GameInformer website.

Hello, @BALANWORLD team! I would like to talk about a very important scene of your game that is incredibly dangerous for epileptics! I would love to chat, my email is in my bio ????????

If you suffer from photo-sen epilepsy, avoid the final boss fight. I ll have more about it tomorrow

Ruppert has expressed concern about how the final combat against the boss could be dangerous for people with photosensitive epilepsy before sharing the relationships of non-epileptic players who have themselves experienced vertigo and discomfort. the scene.

Funny fact: Although I m not epileptic / I have a history of epileptic attacks, I watched five seconds about an hour ago when I heard about it for the first time, and I just feel now that I got back from the strange stunning and headache that it gave me.. https://t.co/ryr8rzxtlia

Do not be rude, but after looking at it again in a safer setting, I m a little disgusted. There is no way that this scene has passed and is incredibly obvious in the danger it represents. Ruppert continued before declaring that she had made contact with a match representative.

Earlier this morning, Balan Wonderworld made the following statement:

Please make sure you install the day patch 1 before playing.

We received reports showing a risk of photo-sensitive epilepsy due to a flashing potential bug if you play the game without correction.

The day patch 1 avoids this problem and improves the global gaming experience.

According to the game media team, the day patch 1 will avoid any problem with the risks of photosensitive epilepsy, among other unrelated improvements. However, Ruppert still had concerns about how these scenes entered the game in the first place.

Which part is fixed, it is not a scene. Was it a bug, was it intentional? This message must be explained in more detail, you do not recognize how dangerous something has done in the title in the first place. I appreciate the quick solution, but we need a little context.

• Liana Ruppert (@dirtyeffinhippy) March 26, 2021

For the moment, Balan Wonderworld made no other statement regarding epilepsy issues found in the game.

We do not know if this delay was intentional or not, but things do not seem good for Balan Wonderworld on the day of the launch.

Look too
