Its a Chinese market game...
Yeah, but is it good?
I recently tried "My Time at Portia" which I recall had similar issues around being developed by a Chinese company. Even though it has a lot of really good reviews, the game is janky and okay at best. All the comments for Black Myth are calling out politics, but I want to know is it actually any good.
Why does that matter in this context?
Cause China has over a billion inhabitants and this game is literally about Chinese folklore, also most games are banned in China this isn't
I don't think the lore part matters that would just be good game development, after all you will never be able to make a game for everyome. But I can see how the heavy censorship is tipping the scale in their favor.
I mean, I agree but this could mean more devs target that market.
Seeing how Blizzard failed i just hope they don't. China is a Hellhole and they try to get their propaganda into everything and everyone.
They don’t really respect IP laws, I’m surprised that companies are so thirsty for it.
Even if China becomes a big consumer of western media, I would imagine their goal would be to make their own media, like a state approved and sponsored media.
So I agree, long term, China is a bad bet for western companies
I just hope that companys stop sucking China dong for some money and keep their western customers that are way less risky.
So what? Movies like Pearl Harbor are also compared to other worldwide hits even though only the US (and probably Japan) have deep feelings about it.
What?
