China to ban online games because they are an “authority vacuum”

Christians warn us about the anti-christ for 2,000 years, and when he shows up, they buy a bible from him.

Wow! Fucked up thing is you've got people here in this country that would love to have more control over us as well.

For further research, look up a company called Tencent in relation to gaming in China. I believe China requires Tencent to own stake in any company wishing to distribute in China.

China also has a network of loyalists ready to review bomb an gaming content they don't agree with. Red Candle's "Devotion" was removed from Steam thanks to China: https://kotaku.com/popular-horror-game- ... 1832881001

I managed to get a copy because I bought it day one since their other game "Detention" was amazing. You can still buy it: https://store.steampowered.com/app/555220/Detention/
