I wish. The gaming industry is shit.

Was going to say, maybe they'll actually make good games now.

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

I love the "low social credit score means you can't ride high speed train."

Like yeah damn, forcing someone to travel as an American does does sound pretty inhumane.

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.

Possibly (i really just want them to churn out turn based wuxia and xianxia games and those are maddeningly often untranslated).

If you like Slay the Spire, Yao Guai Hunter is just like that but with better mechanics, better characters, better graphics, better replayability but sadly much less mods.
