I wish. The gaming industry is shit.
I had a lot of fun with Outpost Infinity Siege, but I never figured out if the Devs were from the PRC or the ROC
Chinese games are adhering to Sturgeon’s law too unfortunately. Main problem for the Chinese indies are lack of translations, presumably because they are indies, but if state’s going to drop some funds there improving this situation would be welcome.
I think that the Chinese gaming industry is currently in a “Slavjank” phase where they have fresh ideas and ambitious concepts but are held back by lack of experience and polish.
I like how china’s investment strategy is “just own a bunch of shares in popular western studios and IPs, then just let them do whatever.” Then westerners feel compelled to start pandering to Chinese audiences even though the Chinese investors are just interested in making money with existing services, and the updates and subsequent games become dogshit and Chinese investors feel compelled to step in and show them how to correctly pander, which leads to Assmold type streamers to soyface about China
Where can i get a controller wrap like that?
one of the reason that cloning happens is because china has very strict laws on what can be depicted in games, no nudity, blood, death, etc. so a lot of these chinese-local games are simply filling in the gaps of western games that will never release there to begin with
The devious Chinese are copying the idea of having video games
