Spanish Incident: Russian-Speaking Users on X "Trolled" Legendary Game Designer Hideki Kamiya, and He Replied in Their Language
Famous game designer Hideki Kamiya — the mind behind Devil May Cry and Bayonetta — once again made headlines when he reacted sharply on X; see his post here. What began as a string of rude comments from accounts posting in Russian turned into a back-and-forth: instead of scrolling past, Kamiya answered with blunt insults, and the thread ballooned as people from other places jumped in.
To be honest, watching a public spat like that is kind of surreal — part of me thinks a pro should ignore bait, yet another part understands why someone snaps. Some viewers wondered if the critics would take the matter to a forum rather than keep piling on in public. IMO, it’s less about who “won” and more about how quickly online conversations can escalate.
