Censorship, Censorship, censorship, and why this censorship in the 21st century, people fly to the moon, we use the Internet, everything is available to us with one click, and then censorship occurs, now I ask you why censorship? Censorship is established in games for the Chinese market, which we saw this spring with Animal Crossing and the ban on the game. Censorship has not bypassed Genshin Impact either, a miHoYo studio game that is extremely popular in the West.
As miHoYo is a developer based in China, under the laws of that country, the game must not possess content that threatens the national unity of China. Consequently, controversial words such as Taiwan and Hong Kong were banned, and players subsequently revealed that Putin, Hitler, Stalin and similar persons should also not be mentioned. A lot of words are also forbidden, and among them probably "protest".
The ban on free speech in China is a natural thing, so it is not surprising that it is also present in Genshin Impact. Criticism is coming from all sides because of this, but the game simply wouldn't see the light of day if it didn't follow these rules.
The same is true for developers outside of China. Their games have to go through a strict controller process and through changes in order to reach Chinese players at all, so there are practically two versions.
Svako cenzurise ono sto mu smeta.. ocigledno da je tako...
