All according to ~~keikaku~~ 计划.
Now China's even copying Chinese characters from Japan, but making cheap knockoff simplified ones instead. :smuglord:
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
-690 FICO Credit Score for questioning the One China Policy.
NO MY CAPITALIST ARE YOU ALLOWED TO LIVE SCORE!!!
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.
"Oh I like Slay the Spire. Let's have a look at that one then."

Holy shit it's literally Chinese Slay the Spire
Holy fuck I’m sick of seeing this guy everywhere. People keep posting his shit and saying, “wow this guy gets it! An American who doesn’t fall for the woke agenda!”
The only times i see him is in this community posts lol
Clear your YouTube watch history, watch one gaming or gaming-adjacent video, then Asmongold will be 50% of your topic recommendations
Edit: don't even really need to clear watch history, I got him on the front page reccos after watching one StarCraft vid a friend shared, and I don't watch any game stuff on that browser (at work) I just listen to music and china stuff
Lucky you. Idk why Central American zoomer right-wingers like this guy so much

Saw his Elden Ring build yesterday and it was fucking disgusting. On top of being a gamerboy fascist who only cares about treats.
It's the WoW YouTuber to Right Wing Grifter pipeline
Asmongold: Makes WoW tutorials on YouTube > anti woke reaction grifter
Athene: Makes WoW tutorials on YouTube > head of a secluded misogynist cult
Makes me miss totalbiscuit when I see this
I genuinely don't know who this guy is or know anyone irl who knows who this guy is. Just touch grass. Or stop hanging out with people who play video games. It's been great for my mental health. Gamers are always going to be chuds, even in China. There's something inherently antisocial about gaming.
Who knew that being a racist slob who's bad at Warcraft could make you a millionaire?
The American Dream circa 2011.
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
Your worldview seems dangerously coherent
Gamers: "I HATE CHINESE, REGION LOCK CHINA THEY ALL CHEAT."
China: "We will make our own gaming ecosystem."
Gamers: Incoherent screaming, pissing and shitting
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
Where can i get a controller wrap like that?
i hope the chinese version of starfield lets me kill the casino planet board members
I really hate this man
nothing but Dyson Sphere Project as far as the eye can see
I know almost nothing about him but I don't want asmongold to exist
Keep it that way
I feel bad for the cockroaches that live in his filth.
Ass man goal passes a kidney stone.

Can China clone a controller with hall effect sticks and decent build quality because the build quality of controllers PS4/XB1/Switch and up has been noticeably worse.
Other than the N64 controller I don't think I've regularly had issues with a first-party controller until nowadays. I recently had to fix a bad solder on a PS2 controller because its rumble was cutting out but that's about it. PS3 control sticks would be filled to dust because of the plastic stick being sawed through by the controller body and still work while my lightly used XB1 controller I only used for PC got wicked drift after a couple years, PS4 controller on my used PS4 slim I got had to be replaced, and my Switch left joycon developed drift (and I replaced it with some hall effect sticks so should never happen again).
Oh, I had to fix a Sega Saturn 3D pad's left trigger button because the magnet it had inside it (even had hall effect triggers) had fallen out somehow.
Was playing an FPS at a friend's house after 1.5 decades of Mouse and Keyboard gaming and noticed controllers are 1: bad for FPS and 2: worse than I remember.
Or maybe I was simply better at FPS games when I was 16 playing Modern Warfare 2.

The best controller I have ever had is a Xbox 360 Pro Wireless controller. I still use that shit for computer stuff and it works so well. XB1 controllers are such crap compared to it. Honestly most gaming peripherals have been getting noticably worse in build quality.

They already do. I bought a Flydigi Vader 3 Pro at the end of last year and it has been amazing so far. Still feels like new and I use it a lot. There's also other highly regarded controllers like those from GuliKit and from 8bitdo.
Flydigi Vader 3 Pro
Heyo I was about to recommend that controller, which I also bought at the end of last year.
My sales pitch is that it does everything the fancy "Elite" controller from Microsoft does, but also has gyro, Hall effect sticks, 6 face buttons, Switch/Android support and cost me literally almost 4 times less. And has gamer RGB lights.
The only con I have is that the mfer is noisy cause the buttons are very clicky

A man can only dream
finally
The only big upcoming game that doesn't look like absolute ass is from China. They've already won.
(the monkey game)
Does this guy have some sort of congenital condition why does he look like that?
Resting youtuber face is a condition that ails millions of people 😔
ah yes the content thief flooding YouTube with his stupid ass clips again. can someone please stop these Gamer™ brained people? go back to yelling at WoW.
