    The only reason I did not buy Wukong is because my poor computer has 0 chance of running it above 5 FPS. The game looks amazing.

        In the info packet they sent to streamers, they asked them not to talk about “feminist propaganda” and they don’t want you to talk about how shitty china’s game industry is(I fully recognize just about all game industries are bad now though).

          I’m split on this. Obviously bad, but not sure I can blame the developers for this fully as (if I understand it correctly, which I might not) they are sort of bound by CCP law? I imagine “stirring up controversy”/“making China look bad” might have some rather dire consequences for the developers.

            Let’s be clear here I very, very much doubt that this was the devs and was instead most likely a pr drone but I do take your point to an extent. All the had to do was not say anything and it would have been better for them though

            I just looked for it and found nothing to indicate it is fake. If it has been proven as a fake, I would love to see where that info is coming from, and if it turns out it is fake, I will edit my other comments to link to that fact.

              That’s still shady, though. Google/YouTube’s “content creators” should reject and expose this kind of deal.

          What’s wrong with not talking about politics while gaming? They ask to leave gaming for gaming.

            They shouldn’t be asking you not to talk about human rights. That is up to the individual streamer to decide if they want to talk about it or not.

                  what point? they can decide not to play the game and share their lame political opinions to their followers, hell they can even go on a rant about how Nuking China will cure cancer if they want. free will and all that

        There’s a circlejerk online hating on this game because incel gotta incel.
