You joke about it, but many physical game boxes don’t have discs in them anymore, in favor of redemption codes. Those codes have a fairly high chance of not working, forcing you to go through endless customer service help options to get the game you paid for simply added to your account.
I guess we’ll see. I also think web pages work differently to games, in regards to the money that goes into developing them, and the expected revenue. Western companies would be perfectly willing to make 2 versions of the same game so they can keep milking Western audiences and keep selling to the Chinese players. But logistically that might lead them to dead-ends, such as trying to balance PvP between a European whale and a Chinese player.
It also means that now there will be data available to compare youth development, gambling addiction etc, between China and the West, which might hasten existing similar actions in the EU, UK and US.

They didn’t backtrack on that one?
Last I heard they slowed down its implementation but is still something that will happen?
I’ll keep hoping then, maybe I’ll finally stop playing FGO.
Yes, last time I read on it they still want to have all of it at some point, but scaled back a lot of the immediate requirements, so that the companies don’t crash THAT hard :’)
Yeah they did. Speculation: one of the videogame companies channeling funds into fusion reactor research may be the result of some bargaining over this.
Chose this video, because a liberal showing respect for China is just cherry on the top.
Current political discourse format be like:

You got the critical support guy, the chud, the lib, formerly critical support guy demoted to lib, and then you got one on the precipice of understanding.
If this regulatory evil comes to Burgerland…
