Those bias and haters give a feeling like, in WOWS, 2-3 DDs are making smokescreen and 3 Schlieffen inside are rushing directly to westerner.
Chinese Video/Computer Games
- Thread starter AssassinsMace

it just occurred to me that with the popularity of black myth Wukong and eventually more and more Chinese PC games, that this will inevitably lead to Chinese gamers upgrading their PCs with new microchips, graphics cards…and how convenient that the Chinese semiconductor and memory industry is ramping up and looking to take a nice bite out of nvidia and Intel’s market for those computer parts…..
It should be interesting hope there are Chinese semi conductor design studio that will take up that challenge. Especially now that AI seems to be entering a new AI winter period. Haven't seen a proper enterprise application for generative AI worth the bill or hardware investment.
A lot of legacy games could make bank by simply updating their old game AI with newer updated machine learning programs eg skyrim with chatGPT or my preference would be an update to the AI of F.E.A.R which used squad tactics against you and responded to your positioning which was phenomenal back in 2005, or even the AI of Total War games which were frustratingly illogical (why the hell is Milan attacking me after my marriage pact?!).
I don't necessarily think there needs to be an state effort for cultural export. Rather the state needs to nurture and grow culture locally. If the product in the form of movies/tv/games/books etc.. is good, even if there is no effort to export it foreigners will flock to it by the works own merit.
Looking at Japan, they were notoriously focused on their home market leaving many games untranslated in the 90s/00s (ironically opposite of cultural export focused Japan of the post Meiji era). I still played those games untranslated because they were fun and fans stepped up to translate some of them.

no thanks, don't need state owned companies, look at what happened with Dustborn, funded by the Norwegian government resulting in one of the worst games in recent history, sullying the names of both the company as well as the government backing it. I'd rather the government spend resources supporting the arts and gaming industry, making it easier to get education and funding for breaking into the industry.
Pack of apes there cant even fix CCTV/CGTN.
Just have game be developed and have rules about no criticizing domestic policy or administration, never supporting hostile foreign government/NGOs etc. You get much better results.

Let's not forget that the original and still the best TV adaptation for Xi You Ji was produced by government mandate.
Hilarious that there is so much trust in the government in China that people believe the government should produce AAA video games.
I don't think there is a single person in the west that would want their government doing this.
Dustborn is just a recent example, there was also the famous Kingdoms of Amalur produced by the former Red Sox pitcher and conservative big mouth Curt 'bloody sock' Schilling funded by the state of Rhode Island from 10 years ago.
EDIT: I just remembered that the Quebec government loves doling out money to VG Devs and other multimedia jobs (ie Movie SFX/VFX, just look at the credits of any movie with significant effects in the last 10 years and there is probably an acknowledgement to the "Gouvernment de Quebec"). They've been quite successful at it. So much so that I just found out they even attracted miHoYo. So Quebec has out commied the CPC. The world we live in...

What the government should do is relax censorship so games like BM: W can be made.
