I'm sorry, but why the fuck is not a single person ANYWHERE talking about this? Is nobody even slightly bothered by more than half of Steam's activity coming from China? I feel like I am taking fucking crazy pills. It should be OBVIOUS to people that this means publishers are gonna chase Chinese interests, developers are gonna try to market stuff to Chinese gamers, they're eventually just gonna ignore the fucking West altogether because SUDDENLY this new market that's bigger than all of America and Europe combined appeared out of thin air. Do literally none of you think this is fucked up and a bad omen for the future of games? Somebody, anybody? Am I utterly fucking alone in hating what this entails for our hobby?
I'm sorry, but why the fuck is not a single person ANYWHERE talking about this...
gay
Because the chinese don't matter to the wider world. Same as the ghanans.
I think chinese interests are going to be more interesting and appealing than western interests like brown LGBT protags. I'd rather play as Sun wukong, Song Jiang, or Jiang Ziya and Im honestly looking forward to it.
Lets see this numbers for Anon Babble users
Done before. Shows mostly israeli and US defense bases.
PC gaming is mostly chinks and third worlders. Aryans play on console.
but what about the legend of Dong Sun Wang, and Jing Ding Bing?
suddenly?
valve has been "chinese" to me for years now
Like, what are you even concerned about?
Indies won't make games that appeal to china because 90% of them only make games that they themselves like, and the remaining 10% just get a lucky idea one day after they're done sniffing paint thinner.
AAs won't make games that appeal to china, because AAs are terrified of twitter mobs, but only when they speak english and/or whatever their first language is.
AAAs will just keep doing what they're doing. Since an outsized amount of development is being done in Quebec by the incestuous mob of wokies that wander from company to company up there like a pack of parasitic jackals, none of them are keen on dropping all the messaging to appease the chinese.
chinese are actually less gay and retarded than westerners, so it is a good thing if anything
I'd rather chinese games that push development forward than your cultures shitty pandering to be anti-male in Video games.
If anything if the Chinese go full homo it is to make money. Vice versa so they aren't skimping out of delivering anything in order to make some cash. Just to make a political statement.
because we already knew and already had threads on it, tard.
aren't you guys shitting your pants because woke trash won't be forced down your throats anymore?
Nah, i'm cool.
Your three-minute break is over, citizen. Get back to your conveyor belt. Those iPhones won’t make themselves.
open Steam folder on PC
theres a folder inside called "steamchina"
Epic gets the f2p trash and dregs of the Western game community, SEApoors, jeets and huehue South Americans
Steam gets 1st world Westerners with money and Chinese with money that want to spend
this means publishers are gonna chase Chinese interests
Chinese interests are different than American/European interests. The majority of Chinese mainly play in internet cafes that aren't going to install the latest 100 gigabyte games. They're full of gatcha and free to play shit instead. The chinese have simply learned where there is an abundance of free entertainment to be had, after they've paid the net cafe cover fee of course
post the full thing, coward.
are these chinese users buying anything?
western interests like brown LGBT protags
western players don't like that though, those games all flop
Don't worry, according to this youtube video I've seen their economy is going to collapse in 2 more weeks.
Journotard isn't allowed to spell Taiwan
1.4 billion Chinese
surprised there are a lot of Chinese
Why didn't they make their own Steam again?
they're going to stop putting in ugly gay blacks to appeal to westerners
how is this bad?
It's not that surprising. As China's economy personally improves, more individuals learn of "luxuries", which is why you saw an explosion in the Hollywood scene for sucking China's cock and having obligatory actors and environments in shit like Transformers. Now that they're taking more and more of a hold in gaming, especially with gacha rapidly on the rise, interests shift into the PC market, the console industry, indie and major publisher alike, and they'll all bend the knee for maximum profit. It was inevitable, as shitty as it is.
China is currently experiencing something similar to the post WW2 quality of life upgrade the US had. They still have a really poor rural sector, but their cities have a massive amount of infrastructure mainly thanks to competent central planning and they are the best country in the world for scale industrial logistics. It's only a matter of time before vidya inevitably becomes their biggest leisure hobby. I don't know if it will be a "Chinese century" meme. Once Xi dies, his successor could absolutely fuck things up, but if his successor is competent, well then you basically have a total commie victory on your hands.
Is nobody even slightly bothered by more than half of Steam's activity coming from China?
Why is anyone bothered by that? Westerners offer a superior online gaming service so chinks will rather break the chinese law and use VPNs than suffer playing games in chinese client.
They never bother making alternatives unless forced to. That's how Chinese space station came to be. That's why they're rushing to make their chips now. The reason why they had to create other alternative sites is because Zuckerberg and Gates refused to host their servers in China (TikTok hosts servers in Texas for comparison).
Chinamen are addicted to gayming while the rest of the word is doing more productive business.
Kind of Whitepilling honestly, they’re slaves to gachashit, and we have more time to cleanse ourselves because of that.
This kind of thinking fell into water during The Great Steamchart Buck Breaking event of 2024.
I don't care, most of users are bots anyway. Players are not even playing the games, you can check achievements.
It was mandated by the chinese government that all citizens must buy the monkey game or lose social credit points
biggest consumer market size wise
Valve capitalize on this
How is this an issue exactly?
That's one way to cope, yeah. But I'm afraid we'll need more coping tactics in the future.
Brown hands typed this post.
Cope, seethe, dilate
Not really. I am excited. Yes, China's first few generation of games were gacha shit, but you can't go from zero to 100 overnight. Their games are rapidly improving.
for what it's worth they have better taste than normies and trannies
Probably. Only white people consume LGBTQ media.
well I'd rather have the Chinese instead of faggot activists trying to fuck up games
americans want trannies
chinese want anime tiddies
Good
Americans want trannies
no we don't that's why everyone here is rejecting DEI
this honestly, Chinese and Indians are the only races that it's okay to be openly racist toward on tiktok/x/insta/youtube
zoomers love making fun of India, gen alpha loves making fun of China
Sorry, I should've wrote it as
game devs THINK americans want trannies
game devs THINK chinese want anime tiddies
it's good to know these kids have a sense of humor
I accept your apology
everyone here is rejecting DEI
everyone
Your shithole is the only place where disgusting pozzed garbage even nets some success.
B-BUT SOME FLOP
Yeah and other degenerate garbage makes bank. Get a new cope.
No they don't. Hell, you have Jap games make their characters trannies and those succeed too.
if you actually go on social media people that aren't magatrannies like china, its mostly just this site that has obsessive conservative retards blaming china for literally everything they don't like
developers are gonna try to market stuff to Chinese gamers
Did you not see the regional pricing chinks get on steam? They usually get the cheapest pricing better than 3rd world countries most of the time.
you must be new. this faggotry stems from your global homo euro trash government. we have super AIDS here, and we're trying to quash it. unless you're a prince from the fucking Emirates you live in a shit hole too
Its because China has a lot of people in it.
stream fixed the region glitch didn't they? you used to be able to spoof your ip to get cheap games
NEXT COPE
conservatives don't care about China. we have Marxist pinko faggots at home in California
I used to like these guys
gonna chase
You're straight up 10 years too late - Don't you remember all that shit with Blizzard lol
No they don't.
They do, look at just about every western AAA game made in the last 5 years.
you have Jap games make their characters trannies and those succeed
I can only think of Guilty Gear, and that series was on its deathbed to begin with
It's not like trans/newhalf shit is new in jap culture either, the japs themselves liked it before western influence.
go suck a dick faggot
They added regional pricing anyway and now everyone pays roughly the same amount of money for games. Third worlders just pirate more, or play fewer games now.
Are you the one straight guilty gear fan from before bridgetgate?
Either way I accept your concession
You have a short memory. They were obsessed with China during Bidens presidency
it's probably hard for them to even afford PC components
I remember when this website used to be cool back in 2012
Anon Babble has been shit since the Anon Babble split
it's not just Anon Babble
wasn't last month's saga literally just about china and tariffs lol. us foreign policy clearly puts china in a front focus because obviously why the fuck wouldn't you
It's not the same as before but 3rd worlds+China pay around 30~40 for new games now. So it's still cheaper than what everyone else is paying for.
take it to I don't give a fuck about your ideals.
And yet western publishers keep churning out those same games...
but now we have official nude patches as free DLC in the steam store.
Hollywood scene for sucking China's cock
I remember that weird scene of The Martian where China send supplies to Mars
It's still possibe to spoof the system and change your region, but in addition to an IP from a target country, you also need card info from that country. So say to get a Brazilian region, in addition to a Brazilian VPN you now need to buy something with a card registered in a Brazilian bank. That's how Russians buy games now on Steam, they change their region to Qazaqstan or Türkiye this way.
You're the one making retarded claims about what an entire political group does or does not have a focus on lol. I accept your concession bitch nigger
AHAHAHAHHA
Holy fucking shit. Now steam has more incentive to bend the knee to chinese government that the governments of the rest of the world combined. Fucking hell, imagine falling for the steam botent cancer. I bet the recent "hack" was also just them providing data to chinks and using "ebil hackers" as an excuse.
Yes, and that's why you see ubishit going bankrupt and the other ones constantly trying and failing to follow trends while they desperately try to stay relevant.
Who the fuck do you think is paying all the marketers and e celebs
And they still keep making those games despite any of that. And even buying out innocent studios like warhorse and forcing them to add niggers and faggots into their games.
