JRPG ‘Sea of Stars’ developed by Sabotage Studio announced its intention to delete certain NPCs that caused controversy in the past and add new NPCs to replace them.
Last November, suspicions were raised that Girard Caril, who runs the YouTube channel ‘The Completionist’, misappropriated $600,000 in donations from the Open Hand Foundation. Controversy grew after she revealed that for 9 years, she invited famous influencers to donate money she had raised without donating it.
Girard Caril strongly denied the charges. He said, “There has never been a single crime or financial fraud in the history of the foundation. We can disclose all details of receipts and expenditures over the past nine years. If an audit comes, we will take action proactively.”
He also said, “We apologize for not transparently explaining the donation schedule and for making statements that could have implied that the donation was made when the donation had not yet been made. This was never done for selfish or malicious reasons.” He apologized for the operation.
As the controversy spread, Sabotage Studio took quick action. An announcement was made that the local architect NPC in Mirth, which was modeled after him, would be deleted and a new NPC would be added.
Thierry Boulanger, director of Sea of Stars, said, “A small patch to replace the NPC in question will soon be applied to Steam. This decision was made after carefully monitoring related issues. Although it is not something we can judge, we are creating a positive game. “Maintaining it is our top priority,” he said.
Fans who heard the news responded by saying, “This is a problem when celebrities are used,” “We need to thoroughly investigate and find out,” “They only avoided game companies for no reason,” and “It’s a disgrace to God Game.”
