And this despite the fact that the game was developed by a Chinese studio.

According to statistics Steam, the share of positive reviews in Chinese was only 25%. By comparison, Party Animals had 85% positive reviews in English, 91% in Russian, and 85% in Spanish.
Judging by the negative reviews, Chinese players were primarily unhappy with the monetization in Party Animals. The game has a built-in store and gacha mechanics that allow you to obtain cosmetic items. In-game rewards do not affect character strength.
In their reviews, Steam users from China also expressed dissatisfaction with the fact that after the release of Party Animals, large queues appeared on the game’s servers. In addition, some players were upset that three years after the alpha version launched, only a few additional levels were added to the fighting game. Apparently, some customers were expecting Party Animals to have more content at release.
Among other reasons for dissatisfaction, players named the lack of an offline mode, which the developers had previously promised, as well as high ping from some regions. One of the players gave a negative review because “there are no capybaras in the game.”
As of September 20, Party Animals had a 44% positive rating on Steam. At the same time, online, which at the release was 100 thousand people, dropped to 22 thousand. However, it is important to consider that at the time of writing this note it was late at night in China. Apparently, this is precisely what is causing the decline in online activity.
