Why isn’t Winnie the Pooh in this game???!? Must be see see pee censorship.

Sorry if this is TMI but my nipples itch like crazy today >_<

I was joking of course but it really does look like the Harry Potter font to me for some reason. Doesn't it? I'm talking specifically the Ringbearer font.

EDIT: Just looked at the Harry Potter font and it kinda does look like it, but not exactly. I think it's the staggered letters throwing me off.

Is anyone else bothered by the fact that a Lord of the Rings meme has been tainted with a Harry Potter font???

EDIT: This is not a serious comment and the meme is actually pretty cool fyi

I'm about 2 months in and I definitely do this, but I also frequently imagine my ideal self as some ridiculous barbarian woman swinging a battleaxe around, like the kind you'd see in Frank Frazetta art.

I'm debating on which one of these is more problematic.

I'm so sorry

I hope you find something else soon and please don't hesitate to reach out to the community for help if you need it.

Is there literally anything modern? Any strategy games?

The one I mentioned in my edit, Chinese Expeditionary Force, seems to fit the bill. The Invisible Guardian is another videos game set in WWII. My Time at Portia is a post-apocalyptic game but supposedly includes quite a bit from contemporary China. Nine Trials is another that supposed has fantasy elements but has quite a bit that comes from modern day China. I don’t know much about any of these but I was able to find them pretty quickly. I also can’t find anything on a specific law that covers modern settings/events, though I’d imagine they would be more restrictive on certain sensitive topics. Developers themselves probably self-censor quite a bit, but this isn’t unique to China. For example, it would be rare to see video games about directly about slavery/racism, red scare paranoia, etc. in the US.

No one actually talks about the story, whether the story was moving or effecting, whether it changed anyone's minds.

You might be right, though I don’t think that’s necessarily because the story is bad. Overall, I thought the story was pretty decent (even if a little derivative), though I also think it was much more relevant when the “War on Terror” was fresh in people’s minds. That particular scene is discussed more because of how shocking it is and due to it being a major turning point in the story, but there is a lot more to talk about imo, including the loading screen messages.

Have you played it yourself, just curious?

If I remember correctly, that part happens relatively late in the game, so you play a decent amount before that.

They aren’t preventing you from playing the game or anything, as the choice is ultimately up to you. You just don’t get to be a hero if you choose to keep playing.

I mean, Three Kingdoms is a real setting (though heavily mythologized) and there's tons of stuff based around that. I also just found this which is a realistic military shooter made by the People's Liberation Army: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glorious_Mission

Looks cool and we should play it some time.

EDIT: Also found one called Chinese Expeditionary Force which is a strategy game that takes place during WWII. There's also a huge number of games made in China that cover ancient China, which shouldn't be surprising given China's long and rich history. Unless there's some solid evidence in favor, I'd consider this law debunked.
