China is the world’s biggest gaming market, where a culture of creativity has flourished – so please do not conflate companies and players with a repressive regime that cracks down on individual expression

    I mean, Genshin Impact is an outlier in games out of China. A lot of the games, even the big budget ones, from developers there are freemium or gacha trash (and Genshin only minorly avoids that by having a decent story and gameplay).

    The first step would be to produce proper single player games that aren’t reliant on a paid store model. There are some examples of that, but they’re incredibly rare.
