That one guy that said an ancient chinese story copied dragonball LMFAO 😂
Heard that comment as I got to yours. Can't believe someone said that. 😂
🤣
its like “whosyourdaddy” in realife lol
The general flawed logic of the West is that we think we are the originals of everything. Someone even told me that China copied paper lmao
@@GazerPlur420 didnt you know that Saiyans are real and they created the Han Dynasty.
If Black Myth Wukong is made in the US, Wukong will be a black transgender woman.
Wukong is the monkey king 💀
And they'll get destroyed faster than Assassin's creed Shadow with the fake "black samurai" Yasuke.
笑死我了
wukong is nongender
Please no.
the one who commented that black myth wukong is based on DBZ must have been mindblown.
Except your wrong too 😂 Journey to the west is the original works name, DBZ was then cashing in on the story and just to make sure you understand DBZ is JP, Journey to the west originated in China in the 16th century.
Now that you've learned something let's go over the fact that Black myth wukong is indeed Chinese made, the story is indeed from the mainland. So your wrong in saying it is based on DBZ.
If your going to call out someone or say something that you think is a fact when it's not do yourself a favor and look it up and fact check yourself before you make yourself sound uneducated in the comments
@@zonedout3390 nah he's jokingly talk about it🤣
@@zonedout3390 that's literally what he said. Hes pointing out that the person in the stream that said "even monkey king is based on Son Goku from Dragon Ball Z", must have been surprised when he learned that journey to the west inspired DBZ, and not vice versa.
Read the comment really slowly (since you're obliviously mentally slow), and try to comprehend it properly, before going off on a tangent about something that wasn't being said next time. You'd look less moronic that way.

except that's exactly what Japan did, now look at their electronics industry, its just better.
Even Germany started this way. The made in germany started to mark shitty products for the international market.
At least China innovates not just copy and paste it.

As a Chinese player, I have to say acutally many years ago we don't have platform like Steam and Epic, and there is very limited formal and legal way to have games' CDs, so abundant of crack version appearing in the market and online downloading. Till recent 10 years it has gone better since Steam bring us a good community. And believe me, Chinese players hate cloned game as well, that's the reason why majority of us now do hope Black Myth Wukong can fvck China game market that filled with full of cloned microtransaction games.
indeed my friend
Heck yeah! Gamers Stand Together!
There is a good phrase that Phil Knight once said "When someone copies you, is a form of a compliment, but when they mimic you, that's where the problems come".
Suppose a product sells well in China (assuming it costs $1), it only has about a month to sell it to make huge profits (assuming it sells for $10).
After that, a large number of manufacturers entered the market. Removing shipping and storage brings the price back close to cost right away.
Overall, this is beneficial to ordinary people in China. For example, the price of electric cars in China has reached US$10,000.
Compared to a $10,000 gasoline car configuration a few years ago, it is simply upgraded by several levels!
Another point is that China is a socialist country to the people and a capitalist country (state capitalism) to the world. It does not protect capitalists. Capitalists need to serve the government. The government needs to serve the people (policies are formulated very quickly , and as soon as the policy passes the pilot, it will be implemented nationwide, but it may damage the interests of a few people, but for most people, the impact is actually relatively positive).
Ask Phil Knight to make the distinction about what the differences are and then we'll talk.
@@user-mo4ky6gy4u man that's just how market based economy works man, the video so emphasized on china shed a blinding light on what's going on around u, ye?
25:15 DBZ was based on Journey To The West, not the other way around. the name "Goku" is the Japanese translation of "Wu Kong".
I laughed way to hard at the comment. Lol Like that person clearly has no clue how old Journey to the West is.
It's DB not DBZ.
You would be surprised by how many people think that Goku from DB is the original.
They don't even know how old Journey to the West is.
More like inspired and not copy paste.
Heavily inspired, but it isn't Journey To The West. And that would be DB not DBZ. The Monkey King doesn't go SSJ3 in JttW.

It's funny how all the keyboard warriors are complaining about it while using a keyboard made in China using a device made in China while wearing clothes made in China.
Agreed
You are not wrong, but that also doesn't mean they are wrong for not liking it. I would prefer not to, but given we've allowed almost all our manufacturing to be outsourced to China(or other countries) there isn't always an alternative. I personally try to buy US whenever I can. Those who care just all have to help point it out and do what we can to not do that.
@@TrackMediaOnly that's the worst thing u can do
What's bad admit buying from china ?
@@TrackMediaOnly what's bad about it ?
Chinese govt is their own . We should worry about our govt instead of others
If this is your logic them never buy anything made in USA ever.
I ll buy more made in china
@@TrackMediaOnly You can actually find almost any consumer products you want NOT made by China and made by Europe or the USA so that's a bulls**t excuse.
Your only problem is when you do so the price is several times higher. This is why you guys need China to manufacture your shit, because your own companies can't afford to pay you guys in your own countries because of inflation, which means they'd need to pay you more in order for you to afford living in the West but if they do they'd go bankrupt. Outsourcing labor and manufacturing to China and other developing countries is a necessity for you guys to maintain your current quality of life. Otherwise most of your households in the US and many in the EU who are already living paycheck to paycheck would go fucking bankrupt if you buy only US and EU-made products.
Next up: how Sweet Baby is a chinese plot to make western game devs self destruct.
Honestly it would make a lot of sense.
yer probly not wrong
It's not like DEI is only in the game industry. In fact games were one of the last things it infected. More likely it's a plot to make the entire west self destruct and it's been working great.
That's the Cee 👁️ A for ya!
@@Claudekr You can tell they're behind it because china is the only country that out right has outlawed anything to do with it. they outlawed depictions of sissy(their definition) men in all forms of media for example.
Chinese companies have been doing this for years. In fact Tencent CEO in interview said "copying isn't wrong" but they have no problem with lawsuits for when others copy their products and also pressure other companies to kill off their games after 2-3 years
also dont forget now more than half tecent game and media are ai generated SHAMELESSLY.
@@leatherDarkhorse actually wouldn't that be the number of the games they got from hostile takeovers and killed off from over monetization?
Western countries should create a law not respecting coprights from countries that dont respect western coprights
Isn't it because most of the games that got killed in 2-3 years are hot garbages designed to siphon as much money before going EoS? They'd die even if 10cent leaves them alone.
The games created with passion and quality like Girls Frontline, Arknights, Azur Lane... won't die no matter how much 10cent "pressures" them.
China doesn't recognize foreign copyrights
Dynasty warriors, made by Japanese company on Chinese history. I’m not complaining.
If you look at history, what famous artist didn’t learn and copy art techniques from another?
That's just how we evolve. They calling genshin a copy o btw is bullshit. Totally different games meant to be played in diferent way. Like, it's not even close, the game loop is nothing similar.
Hello, I want to mention that there are an entire sub-genre of games called Wuxia (literal translation: martial arts and chivalry) games out there, from the classic 仙剑奇侠传 (Sword and Fairy) to the most recent indie title 逸剑风云决 (Wandering Sword). These games have a very long history and there are hundreds of them, many RPG and some action. They are seldom known in the Western world because many of them weren't localized into English and culturally not very compatible to western audiences, but very popular among the Chinese speaking population. She didn't mention these at all in her video either because she didn't care enough to do the research or deliberately chose not to because the existence of these games didn't support her argument.
There is a sizeable wuxia / manhua / manwha / chinese and korean novel subculture on the west.
Chinese stories almost always suck though. They have the same tropes, the annoying young master, the main character that smugly shows the world that rejects him how amazing he is, and so on.
@@N7senseiThey are badly translated too.
@@someone-mz6kw
Yeah. Usually the translation is absolutely awful.
I tend to read them while battling my insomnia and trying to fall asleep.
There are a couple of fun ones though. You just have to mow through a lot before you find a decent one.
It is interesting how derivative they are. Almost all of them are copy paste, just rename / redraw the characters, but essentially the same story.
Sword and Fairy is made by Taiwan 😂
@@user-mv8pl1yl9s Which is a part of China.
Producing games for cheaper doesn't mean that game prices go down. Prices never go down only up.
Salaries go down though 💔
Just quality
So right only the mindless drones things things go down just because the techno bros make more profit. goes to show the lack of intellect from all that religious top down brainwashing.
that's called inflation, welcome to the real world kid
Bros never learned some things go on sale
Many Chinese hoped that Blackmyth Wukong can be a success since this would make the Chinese gaming companies see the market and potential. If they fail, they think the Chinese gaming industries will enter another dark age
If anyone has ever watched SsethTzeentach 's videos playing chinese made games that involve chinese culture/myths, the biggest issue is exactly that, their culture.
It's way too... nonsencical? As in it's steeped in inside-cultural-references that no one outside of chine could even begin to understand wtf is going on, because it's a one chaotic mess on religious superstitions, feng-shui, traditional medicine, historical figures both real and fake, references to books, references to references of references etc etc. and there is no attempt to explain or open anything up.
If you have ever watched a japenese comedy (anime or live) and you couldn't tell what the joke was like 50% of the time, dial that to 11, and you'll have a decent idea.
@@themurmeli88 That's true, and translate chinese to english is extremly hard, almost impossible to convey beutifully as they are, which will make the game's lore more confuse for foreigners. but i am glad to see Black myth has a lot of quality outside it's world building and lore that attracts foreigners
@@themurmeli88 True, but unfortunately, this is the only theme that can easily attract everyone, and it's also the only thing that most of the Western people has some knowledge about China, which means there will be no trial and error costs.
@@badking1079
You have to know that "Journey to the West" is just a novel from more than 400 years ago. There are many such works in Chinese history. For example, "Classic of Mountains and Seas", "Investiture of the Gods", "Mythology of the Great Wilderness"
There are too many. China is the only country with a continuous civilization. There has been no interruption in history. The pattern of changing dynasties ensures that China has not been "conquered" in the Western sense. Chinese history is continuous. Just like the United States 200 years ago has continued to this day. .
China only has ancient music scores. There are millions of them. So when Macron came to China, he could hear the music played by a 1,000-year-old piano.
@@badking1079
There are too many themes similar to Journey to the West in China. .
So once China masters the technology, there will be more and more Chinese games. . And they will get better and better.
The only way to impose short-term restrictions on China is to ban game engines.
This will stop China for three years.（Although China has its own game engine, it is not at the level of Unreal 5.）
In the 1990s, many of us already owned PCs with modem dial-ups, allowing us to play games like Warcraft, Dune, Command and Conquer, and Doom. However, in China, most households only started acquiring PCs in the mid-2000s. Despite the recent shutdown of many Western game developers and even giants like Blizzard facing challenges, the new studios emerging in China have been doing an exceptional job. If you look at their animation, called donghua, you'll notice they have a distinct identity and cultural difference from Japanese anime. Additionally, their CGI is world-class, often surpassing Western cartoons. They are setting new market standards, so it's no surprise if they excel in game creation as well.
Wow, you really did your homework my friend.
@@user-ko5sg2fv3f I didnt do any homework. I'm just an old school gamer and i travel alot :) At the same time a fan of animation.
China is beating The US in the capitalism game. LMFAO
😂china even beat usa on ev by caitalism word “overproduct”😢
You know your capitalism has turned to sht when the communist country starts out capitalisming you.
It's funny how they do all this and then turn around and talk about how evil capitalism is. Do they not realize?
Us needs better people in charge then it can turn around. Need to drill oil and natural gas. Need to build factories and fabrication plants. Need to expand the grid..etc
If the government forces the same “partnership” to sell in my country model back to them. I’d be fine with it. They are weaponizing capitalism against the West and we just allow it.
It is nice that Asmongold quickly corrected the ignorant post of one user in his stream that said Journey to the West is a rip off of dragon ball Z lol. Son Goku is basically based on Wukong the monkey king. Just goes to show how ignorant some people are nowadays. A lot of Japanese games in the past actually are based on Chinese Literatures because they share a common ancestry.
Share common ancestry? Japan literally COPIED entire China, from architecture to language to governmental systems
Wukong could be based on Hanooman. It's India again.
@@vivliforia2262 nope very different.
@@vivliforia2262nobody cares about hanooman..wu kong is the goat
Dragonball, only inspired, not based.
Its not like Western AAA game studios are doing a lot of innovation either. Every new Ubisoft, EA, Bethesda, etc game plays just like the previous game, but in a different setting. In fact, new releases can be inferior than the predecessors, as shown with Skull and Bones.
TBH that's pretty ignorant. Ubisoft is a huge company with a massive variety of titles, it just has a few mainstay series in the same genre. But go google up everything they've developed. Its alot. Bethesda actually gets criticized every release for all they've changed. The biggest complaints about Starfield, Fallout 4, and yes even Skyrim was that they were not enough like their older games. They don't reinvent the wheel sure, but they do significantly iterate and try new things and people gripe and kevitch every time. But they still do it. When Back 4 Blood was released, the biggest complaint was that it was not enough like Left 4 Dead 2. God knows how many MMOs released where people went "you shoulda done this more like WOW". You blame the devs, but the devs are innovating and trying new things even in the face of huge pressure from gamers to just do it like the old games.
@@Ralathar44I don’t know enough to talk about the other parts of your comment but for the part about back 4 blood: a lot marketing material for it revolved a lot around name dropping L4D, with a lot of advertising containing the phrase “From the creators of left 4 dead” somewhere. It feels like it relied a lot on the legacy of l4D to create hype, which is why a lot of folks were disappointed when it fell so short of the games it built its whole identity around.
At least, that’s my two cents about it.
@@poppintags2280 They didn't have a choice. Their original reveal trailer (REVEAL trailer, before the release trailer) did not have any of that. But the entire internet and all the journalist articles labeled them L4D and noted their creator status anyways. So they had two choices, lean into or fight it. They leaned into it. Now you might say that is a mistake, but the same thing happened to Redfall way before their release. The Redfall devs argued people said they were not a L4D game. The internet and journalist articles called them liars. They released a demo to say see, we're not Left 4 Dead game. And the internet and jouranlists doubled down they were L4D. Redfall may have been a terrible and unifinshed game on release, but that stuff happened before anyone knew that. So basically, there was no winning for Back 4 Blood. They were going to get that label no matter what they did. The fact they leaned into it is just an excuse for people to do what they were already gonna do.
@@poppintags2280 TBH though the thing that really bothers me about the Back 4 Blood situation isn't people complaining about the marketing or the game. It's the fact that the Left 4 Dead community literally waged a misinformation campaign against it, intentionally trying to kill it. And they still are. It's gone on for years. The game lives forever rent free in their heads. They were saying wild stuff like the game has microtransaction (quite literally has zero). And go look at the negative reviews, most of them are just "go play left 4 dead" and don't say anything else useful. Usually with less than 5 hours. If you removed all those L4D review bomb reviews the game would have a great review score and the fact its still alive and kicking today with currently over 11,000 players (they are on sale right now, putting it almost as low as L4D2 prices, usually they have closer to 4k) says despite the attempted sabotage says alot about the fact the game being pretty quality. You can use steam scout to parse the reviews and the review ratio at 5+ hours is really positive.
I am a Chinese gamer. I personally hate Tencent because they rely on their channel advantages to produce a large number of krypton gold games. Plagiarism and cloning have always existed in the gaming industry, but Tencent’s strong channel traffic advantage will make Tencent games more likely to succeed. , due to the rapid development of mobile games and the prevalence of gold-based online games, stand-alone games are not popular in the Chinese market. Manufacturers are also unwilling to develop high-quality stand-alone games, so gradually many Chinese players go to the American Staem platform. All Chinese players hope that more high-quality single-episode games will emerge in China and cultivate this market. This is a good thing for Chinese players, as well as for single-episode game manufacturers and player groups around the world. When there are more and more genuine stand-alone players in China, It will promote the development of the global stand-alone market. Only when there is a market can there be competition, and more high-quality 3A masterpieces will appear. This is why I very much hope that Black Mythology can succeed. Black Mythology is the first Chinese company to invest 100 million US dollars. Standalone 3A game. There is no krypton gold, no recharge, no rankings, a real hardcore stand-alone game.
People keep yapping about China copying this and copying that, that's how the world has always worked, copying means you get to learn quick and catch up, that's what has always happened.
It's the same stuff people were saying about cars and phones and now here we are.
People like to act like all the games out there are unique, it's all copies of one another.
The main point people should be focused on is the fact that copies mean people are learning rapidly.
When you go and learn programming what's the first thing you learn? Is it not how to print "Hello World"? Well think of it as the Chinese learning Hello World on a larger scale
I dont think asmongold realised china and the us are doing ai innovation differently, china is the single most industrial country in the world period, their ai projects mostly revolved around ai in industy, ai in manufactures, whereas the us are doing ai stuffs in the office, ai generating picture, ai deep learning, ai accelerating software, etc. They are completely different path for ai and currently we dont know who is the more "correct" way of doing it, who can potentially ignite another"industral revolution"
nah tencent has plenty of AI technology in imaging as well. The face enhancement AI for live streaming for example comes from China. There are also things like face monitoring system. A lot of things in the office for certain.
"while Western Studios take sweet sweet time...."
and somehow they still fail most of the time (day 1 patch ? game is service, botched launch etc )
how....
Didn't use to.
Because the people who are in the Top position never played Video games, so they dont understand that the game industry is a whole different beast compare to business industries. I mean look at the Xbox CEO keeps talking about mobile gaming and not understand the mobile industry is saturated that it is HARD to get a slice of pie out of it than PC/console games.

I see no problem with cloning. Its been happening for literally all human history. One tribe saw a bow and arrow, and do you think they will not use it because of ethics and then try and create their own weapons? No. If it works, and they can re create it, they will. That is not a problem.
As long as you provide greate customer service and upgrades, you will still be on top. This is what companies should do instead of complaining and whining. You can't escape copies of good ideas. Also many people get the same ideas for so many things and just because one person made it first shouldn't restrict another person in some other place to create something very similar. Ideas have major limits and can only go so far. Often similar ideas are born when 2 people who are completely isolated see a specific problem or are influenced in a similar way. There have been studies of this.
For example, in one study, they got a few artists and drove them through the city without telling them why they are doing it. Then they asked the artists to paint a picture. Guess what happened? Most of the artists end up painting a very very similar painting of the things that were placed on rout specifically to catch their attention. All of the artists thought their painting was original to them and was their own thoughts expressed.
The lady also omitted many details, Tencent asked Riot first to make League Mobile because it was an untapped market, Riot said "No, mobile moba is a**" so Tencent made their own, and they were correct, not long after Moonton made Mobile Legends, this happens because Riot refuse to acknowledge mobile potential.
Also TFT, Riot's Autochess originated from DOTA Autochess, which were made in the DOTA version by Chinese devs. Sometimes Riot is quick to steal, sometime they're too laid back.
Chinese lawyers: "all mods are illegal, all copying is illegal!"
Meanwhile China in ALL international materials:
"It's not illegal. You let me build it or work on it? We own it now!"
It's only wrong when someone does something they don't like.
You’re probably lying & consider it hyperbole. In a lot of joint ventures, transfer of knowhow is in the contract. So “you let me build it or work on it” is basically a lie (for examples you’re probably referring to, which you don’t bother to list). It’s more like “you share IP for the privilege of making billions through our cheap labor and our enormous consumer base”. Standard capitalism.

Well, at least it’s no longer just wholesale made with BotW stock assets.
…I mean, mostly. Still in early game regions.
@@MagnificantSasquatch It never was made with BotW assets. It was always its own thing. If you bothered to look at the game or its development history, you'd know that it evolved out of their previous game - Honkai Impact 3's - open world mode, and gradually dumbed down the combat while ramping up exploration and puzzle solving until it eventually became what it is: an open-world RPG. That is in contrast to BotW which is an open-world action-adventure. The influence of BotW is unmistakeable in Genshin's hilichurls an climbing systems, but literally nothing else about the games are even similar. The "clone" claims were always stupid.
@@ThePhilosogamer Indeed, I thought it look a bit too similar to botw when it's still in beta. I'm glad it managed to find its way and become something unique.

The fastest way to clone another company's tech is just to buy that company up outright. That's why a Chinese automaker, Geely Cars, bought Volvo.
Are you fcking kiding me, even fromsoft 😩

ah i was manager for R&D department in a game developer company in hong kong that collaborated with tencent games. we got files of textures and 3d models completely ripped off directly from Japanese games. Its even more terrifying knowing how they got the files. When foreign game companies had to do localization in China, local staffs legaly had to comply with the party and steal business info from them. But how is that going to be organized u ask? well since a few years ago, all companies are required to had a party member on board as board of directors, so the party knows what to look for when certain infomations are key to the business. I eventually resigned from my job becuz i was asked to send away sensitive user data to the chiense servers from the mobile games we made

I’m a big fan of hollow knight and seeing the copy, Deviator is interesting. It feels a lot like Hollow Knight but they added the need for a parry mechanic. That alone ends up making the game play a lot different because you must parry to be able to heal.
The artwork is strikingly similar to hollow knight. Not sure if it will end up being a good game or not but I’ll be happy for more games like Hollow Knight if it’s any good.
if Deviator looks and feels too much like hollow knight and they don’t do enough of their own work then I think the players will feel that and not like it.
you should play Nine Sols then its really good
glazing hollow knight so hard that you support clones of it is wild
This was gaming in the 90's really. Successful games had like 20 clones with minor variations and it was glorious.
Thats why alot of FPS games where called a Doom clone back in the 90s.
We still have Metroidvanias
IDK man, I'm not a CCP fan or anything, but if China ups their game (literally) in game production, as well as they have done with certain electronics for instance.... that's a good thing. We really do need competition in the AA and AAA markets. If China enters that with either really good copies or original works, that's a net win for gamers in general.

As a Chinese gamer, it is true that Chinese game market have serious problem of plagiarism, especially a few years before. Tencent is the most notorious one among the gamers. A famous saying is that whatever you made, Tencent will soon copy yours and you cannot defend your copyright because Tencent is always winning in the Shenzhen Nanshan District court (everybody knows why). However, it is more like a stereotype to say that China Gov has an plan to clone all kinds of game while they do have the plan in the chips and hitech I think. If let me describe the images of the role that the gov is playing in the gaming, it is a conservative and old-fashioned elderly but is irresistible in front of cash (exactly because that is the common figure of the 60~70s generation). In the chaotics era, the officals regulated the industry and was inactive to plagiarism. And the big companys like Tencent grew up with sin and "relationship". Now they go back to sue others for plagarism.
bro, copying happens everywhere, a bit too political i would say, its the same when you look at japanese games or mobile games in general
Cloning games would just reduce the value original works. Who wants to play the same game 300 times over other then gatcha and battle royales.
Funny of you to assume that western devs are full of original ideas, recent years have proven the opposite
............................... This is where I have to ask you to just take a single glance at the gaming industry and it's consumers.
World of Warcraft: "Hold my beer"...
Lets just call it mythics, right ? >.>
Fifa, NFL and Call of Duty?
yup, every year release same game with full price
Exactly, no one wants to play the same game 300 times. But why are they receiving good market? Cuz they are not just cloning, they are improving it, that’s why the player base is willing to give up their accumulation and move to a new game.
Cloning does not necessarily mean getting the same result. Metastasis was a clone of Breaking Bad and it was honestly such a poor 4/10 that it's not even worth looking into it for nothing more than memes about how poorly executed it was.
In that same way, I can't imagine China's plan to clone the gaming industry will work for the better. If anything it will just end up showing how poorly thought out the idea is from the idealogues that push it and will make Non-Chinese video games still the centerpiece of Chinese consumers that are into video games.
Well their cloning did work pretty good for the better of all gamers - their successful LoL clones for mobile for example lead to LoL: Mobile being developed. Without clones(and Riot being purchased by Tencent) there would be no MOBAs on phones or tablets. Or MMOs and many other game genres, that western companies didnt even think of briging to mobile. Nobody was actually hurt by their clones(beside having to suffer from some really bad ones), as nobody even tried to target some of the markets in first place(or didnt bother to release game in China). Its a crime - but its pretty much a victimless crime.
@@alexejvornoskov6580 True but that's mobile, a market that was untapped before. What about on the older platforms? PC, PS and Xbox? I think that's where they'll end up short imo.
Cloning doesn't mean the result is bad either. Palworld cloned all the popular genres in one game, and it was a massive success.
@@Mephitinae They didn't clone it...They borrowed/copied certain aspects and made their own version of it. They didn't do a copy-paste like Metastasis did with Breaking Bad.
Cloning means that you make an identical copy of something. Palworld has not had any sort of identical copy of anything.
@@IvorineDJ Chinese have nearly no presense in this outside of China itself, they dont even try to sell them abroad. And only reason they trive in China is because most games arent ready to make changes to apply for Chinese regulations, so vacuum in gaming space is created, that then is filled by chinese clones. But if your game is good AND is released in China, then its becomes a success that doesnt have to fear any clones. So once again - nobody is being hurt. Alternative are pirated copies like it was the case before global releases back in 90s and early 2000s all over the world. You dont lose any money from a product that you dont sell in first place.

I have doubt about China being able to truly start gaming innovation. Ideological purity spirals, legal interference and top down management is what is killing "western" gaming innovation and China is 100% about those 3 things.

there's no such thing as stealing a genre. gta maybe created its own genre but saints row didnt copy them. that includes the story, art style, gameplay mechanics, and many more. I'm not worried about any of this. What I worry is them shipping games with spyware. Riot games do it for example.
Did you know that they buy the companies of the games they cannot copy?There are some special games that are one of a kind or online. For example, Warframe is a game of a Canadian company. It is even a very good game that saved the company from going bankrupt. China bought this game:I was still playing when they bought it and I still have an account there. Most of the time, when I wanted to trade in the game, when Chinese players came across it, it caused bugs and problems due to the high ping difference.Not only that, but all the Chinese players I knew in the game, even those who broadcast live on Twitch, were playing with cheat programs. We are talking about a community of players who cheated even in a PVe based game.We even started to download and play some games, thinking they were original, without realizing that they were actually copies. Almost all games of Chinese origin run on my computer with a different subprogram other than the game itself.Unknown to many people, many giant European or American game companies have actually been sold to Chinese game giants with a confidentiality agreement.For example, how do you explain that there are Chinese Year events in an online game made in Europe and published only in Europe?70% of the game industry is under China's control and this will increase gradually. They have already bought almost all of the most played Steam games. Copying is a tactic as explained in the video, but do not forget that they are buying companies.
you know about ALbion online? the moment the chings know about that game and the possibility of RMT, the amount of bots increased like 100x, they even stream about that thing, its a fuking shame
Wait warframe was sold? Man that sucks. Didn't play for 3-4 yrs now so I had no idea that this even happened
Ok...sure but ppl can be Chinese and not live in China 😂. Thus is why u get Chinese new yr events in games like animal Crossing 😂😂😂.
@@packers12to80 It's a very interesting idea, but it's surprising to see this in a game where 99% of the players are from my country and even English is not used.

Why are these events suitable for Chinese people and not for people from my country?
@@Discoveryman29calling them the chings is fucking crazy, don't let your sinophobia show too much my man
Tencent offered us funding enough for 4 games in the series when we are in beta stage on our first game. 😅 it was that aggressive.
There is some bad information here, so I wanted to correct it, this will be long as it includes some explanation. Anyone interested in this, as it's a serious matter, and goes beyond gaming, should read further, despite the length.
The first thing people in the US should be learning is the situation with China. China represents roughly 1/3rd of the human population, and has generally been culturally backwards and stagnant. While responsible for many innovations in the ancient world they did not do anything for a long time, earning them the name "The Sick Men Of Asia". This is why when in an old Bruce Lee movie, when Bruce beats up an entire Japanese martial arts school, he says "We are not sick men", it's a reference to that title.
At any rate China's economy is also a lie, a permitted fiction due to the number of people living there. See due to it's constant problems China wound up in a massive amount of debt, especially to Britain. The Emperor, realizing this, started to embrace more and more western ways, and do whatever he could to pay off China's debt and progress Chinese civilization. This however had tremendous negative impact in a nation known for it's concept of "face", and formed the impetus for Mao to lead his communist revolution, largely based on the horror of realizing that they had that much debt. The problem is that for international trade to work, a coup, or change of government, does not erase the debt of that people. Various African nations and large parts of South and Central America have this problem as well. Basically a new regime becomes responsible for the debts of the old regime, plus any thy incur, otherwise countries would just have coups or something every so often to get out of debt to other nations and the whole system of international trade couldn't work.
The massive debt Mao's revolution caused, on top of what they already owed created a situation where basically even a massively progressed China could not pay it all off before the sun explodes. Seriously, it owes that much considering everything when you compute it. I'm not even getting into things like Warlord Bonds to explain part of that, as some of those are worth like a couple Trillion that China owes from that whole period when you consider penalties.
As this is 1/3rd of the population, special provisions were made to handle China, and pretty much not call them on that debt, allowing them to lift 1/3rd of the population out of abject poverty by allowing them to participate in global trade despite everything. The idea was that a more prosperous China will lead to social and cultural reforms, and then China could basically come and bend the knee to G7, and trade debt forgiveness and such for concessions in joining the world stage properly. It was a humanitarian thing.
The problem is that as China became more prosperous it did things like implement a national firewall, and turn into a sort of commie-siege state, and actually become worse in all the areas it had problems with instead of better, with a leadership even more obsessed with face. It does things like refuse to acknowledge international patent and copyright laws, and has been knocking off products, right down to labels, since the 80s where we started to call it a "Robber Economy", but even when weak the idea of killing as many people it would take and ending their prosperity was against the more humantarian views of the west. Video games are just one of the more recent things really, I remember when it first was invented that knock off viagra was a huge thing as were drugs in general. The real problem is, we allow them to use the global market, and have never enforced the rules of that market like having to acknowledge things like intellectual property rights. This is why things have been so bad with the east and west, especially as countries like the US pivoted towards an innovation and service based economy, with the idea being the manufacturing nations like China were supposed to only take a percentage as opposed to just knocking off the products and making their own.
To be fair, the video is correct that "knock offs" have always been a thing, but realize that there have always been rules about intellectual properties and such that most people don't realize, and things haven't been as blatant as what China does as everyone was playing by those rules.
The issue right now is not that anyone thinks China could actually stop The West from just removing the CCP from power, things like the AEGIS system (look it up, it's basically nuke interception on ships ) could really prevent the threat of their nuclear arsenal, the problem is the humanitarian issue of having to kill as many people as it would take to break the fanatics supporting the CCP. The problem also is compounded by the fact that as China did become more prosperous, even with all the people there that are basically slaves, your still looking at one of the biggest markets in the world. Anything that is going to rely on low end volume sales, like movie tickets or video games, can move a LOT of units there as they have more people than any western market. Thus you have a lot of business people who are beyond ideology as they are so rich they don't have to worry about what everyone else does, who pretty much don't care what China does, or even if it knocks a lot of stuff off, as long as they can sell units of their product to China, and take advantage of the slave population it maintains to have stuff made to sell in yet other markets. It's a case where you can see the problem with capitalism causing a lot of bad thing to happen, even for the capitalists themselves, simply because there is lots of money to be made in the short term.
Now, a lot of people, generally right wingers, have been arguing that we need to isolate China, much like we did with The Middle East. It's hard though as a lot of very rich people, many huge political donors, want that market open, and don't care what they do. Even say cutting off trade for them for say 5 years would simply cost too many rich people too much money, even if it would get them to back down. Understand though that in their case to make it work there would also be humanitarian concerns like say not providing food while they starve (there is a reason China tries to invest in foreign agricultural land... including in the US), and needing to shoot down any planes, boats, or whatever trying to leave China... and make their national firewall something other than a form of isolation they contorl, and rather forcing them out of the loop with everything. To be fair it's quite doable, but the threat of China's military is simply a paper tiger used to try and justify the real reason for not taking action due to the amount of money that can be made.
There is also the issue that a lot of global economies rely on Chinese debt (like it or not) for their own economies. For example the USA is actually owed far more money by China than it owes to China, it's just that the CCP tries to not acknowledge this, and of course what it owes the Brits is far more than that. For those who didn't pay attention at the time, the whole reason why Hong Kong was turned over to China as per previous agreement despite what the people there wanted was simply because it was agreed to. If Britain had refused, or America had intervened, China could then have argued that since we were violating agreements like that, they could claim they don't have to honor the debts they incurred to those countries, which could cause other problems in the long game being played here as action becomes increasingly needed.
Basically the end goal for any leader who knows what they are doing is to pretty much get China to bend the knee and join the civilized world on the same terms as everyone else, which of course the CCP doesn't want. Hence the attempts at diplomacy, but that whole elephant in the room of how much they owe is always going to be an issue to a bunch of people obsessed with face and perception. Xi isn't going to fall to his knees before G7, but realize as the belligerence increases, eventually he's going to start a war by not doing that as if things like this video game knock off plan (another trillion dollar industry) happen eventually people are going to have no choice but isolation, regardless of what Corpos want, or military invasion... and yeah, China realizes it can't stop that latter one, but it likes to rattle it's sabers to pretend the situation is different, when in reality it knows it needs nations like North Korea as a trip wire, and doesn't even have the ability to take Taiwan if it wanted to despite screaming for generations it was going to force that issue. You notice that for all the cries of peace, how seriously Pelosi took their threats when she landed there. The sad truth is that while they have some good tech, when it comes to most stuff, it's largely fake. I remember when they had a rail gun mounted on a ship "like the one in that transformers movie, except real" and then they test fired it, and had it rip off it's mounting and kill half the crew. That was a while ago, but well... yeah... there are some reports their new rifles are even worse than the original version of the M-16 that was in 'Nam.

I mean you can do the Ra-Ra China thing all you want, but that's just statements of fact and history.
To be Sinophobic you'd have to hate the Chinese people themselves, and this is more a statement on their current behavior, and unlike a Sinophobe you'd notice there is a point about bringing them into the rest of the world community as the end game of everything mentioned. That said I assume it's beyond your reading comprehension level to figure any of that out.
Mostly I posted that for anyone who might be interested in the behind the scenes stuff. I don't expect a lot of responses or thunsb ups on RUclips as it goes beyond most people's willingness to read here, but I do things like this out of a feeling of obligation... and it also gives me a chuckle to put the truth in front of them.
I figure most younger people don't remember the calls for military intervention during the HK takeover, and later when the protests picked up, and the explanations as to why. Likewise Pfizer calling for the US to intervene on the violation of their patent for Viagra was big news for a while, and also reinforced a lot of this, it's just older news, and they spelled out the patent violations and the humantarian reasons why we couldn't exactly start a real war or a trade war right then and there. Basically you can't save The Chinese People by killing them all, and the CCP hasn't become enough of a genuine threat to force our hand, they are just really annoying, and as pointed out we do make a lot of money off of this indirectly as well. At a certain point though it might become needed to say the poison is too deep, the people will never overcome the CCP, and then having to do whatver it takes to reform China at gun point at great humanitarian cost. Not doing anything right now is sort of our justification if that happens later, as we can show how restrained we were under massive provocation. Right now they are giving us an excluse to pretty much isolate them and/or level their society. This means later if we do have to do that we can go down the list, which will include things like this, and explain that is why we're carpet bombing brain washed Chinese and digging the CCP officials out of the rubble of Beijing.
Interesting read, thanks. And very coherent.

The laissez faire approach in view of funding a dictatorial, tyrannical government is not an approach that is recommended in the long run. I've personally played Chinese games (including genshin) in the past but seeing the predatory actions they carried out on the world stage changed that. You can still satiate your dopamine addiction whilst being aware of consequences and take individual action, rather than hide behind the herd behavior as a validation for inaction.

To this day I will never understand "Genshin stole from BotW". Next people will say BotW stole from Assassin's Creed due to climbing like it's a unique thing. Stealing gives it a negative connotation, like going out complaining people copied and stole your ability to walk.
The whole rhing is originally organized by mihoyo's competitors in China😂 they didnt want genshin to succeed. Here in china we called it the Million Zelda Incident. It somehow spread to the west and you know many westerners discriminated China so they joined in to shit on genshin.
updraft, enemy designs ( eg octorok from zelda and the dendro slime have the exact same behaviors and attack patterns) , ui , balloon puzzles, art direction, are just a few. genshin even copied from other games like 2b's unique animations. to say that they didnt even remotely steal even one mechanic or design is beyond idiotic and blind fanboyism. theres plenty of comparison videos out there that is incontrovertible proof of plagiarism. you wont need to do that if you actually played botw which obviously you didnt so really you are just talking out of your a s s
Yeah, there is a difference between taking inspiration from something and outright copying it. Genshin is obviously inspired by BotW but it's different enough from it that it can't be considered outright copying. Otherwise BotW is "copying" from all other open-world-climb-tower-to-unlock-map games that came before it as well.
It's the gliding mechanic, that's what did it. But I've always said they copied it. "Stole" is a bit much. A bunch of games copied Breath of the Wild after its release.
@@GameBeatenakaKevinS Yeah and by that logic BotW is copying every open-world-climb-tower-to-reveal-map game that came before it as well. If games weren't allowed to yoink mechanics from other games we'd have one series for each genre.

this bs statement shows that you really dont know anything about china's gaming industry，just type any consoles and add “store in china” in google search, for example PlayStation store in china, hundreds of them will pop up, even if you don’t see that many in 3rd tier cities, you can always order them online, nintendo playstion and xbox，they all have flagship stores on Taobao.

Recently i noticed that china had a old video game of final fantasy
the problem is those game's art styles looks too similar, almost like they just use the same artists for every game.

As a veteran Chinese 🇨🇳, I grew up playing bootleg games. Because video gaming was too pricey for us and the market was full of these copycats. And then approximately around college years I got to know steam and then started buying games. Also many steam games are very cheap. China gaming is like many industries in china, was crap at first place but then due to economic blooming and local protectionism, it grows larger and larger. Finally, the industry is so big that it uses rules and regulations learned from the west to consume and replace its original source😂. To be fair, what makes Chinese so different and also more threatening than other competitors the west used to face is that including Gaming industry, Chinese are so good at the process of learning, copying, catching up and using your rules against you. So you will see china’s rising of 3A games in recent years because the process is complete. Right now making a 3A game in china is very cheap compared with those made in Japan and USA. So I guess in the coming years more 3A games will be made solely by Chinese companies. Put ideology aside, China is just another version of America but the ruling power is the party who plays the game of free markets in a more authoritarian way😂.
Cheaper than America, maybe, but cheaper than Japan? bruh gotta search the average salary of Japan game industry...
Question, in the original video, a Diablo clone (I or II) is briefly mentioned, and I wanted to ask you if you know the name of that game.
Indeed, the gaming industry was crappy before 2015, but now they are making very good games. And with games like "Wukon", the industry will flourish in no time!
And even more so with the crap the western companies are trying to sell right now.
@@_Car6oN_well you gotta pay that japanese version of Bobby Kotek somehow 😂
@@_Car6oN_ I think for Japanese game developers’ problem is that they have not been very keen on monitoring the trend and quickly learn to adapt to them…hence Japanese game developers have yet churning out any new global success titles recent years but still relying on reiteration of old franchise created from decades ago.
