Maybe it's my dumb westerner worldview speaking, but I feel like just a few years ago china was mainly known for bootlegs and knock offs in terms of game development. I'm happy they're making really cool games like this and others these days.

I wouldn't be surprised if all the people that grew up on western games are deciding to make their own games (and their industry is developing).
It would be nice if china could use their games industry to break the poor perception in the west. it probably wont happen and it probably doesnt matter, but I'm envisioning a policy similar to the "cool japan" thing japan is doing. improve their soft power by using cultural influence through making good games. something like that.
edit: I see you basically said the same thing before me lol.
It seems like the right thing to do. Soviets always struggled with soft power (I know that China isn't trying to be a like the Soviets, but Soft Power is good.
I would love to see major game industries grow in other countries. In too many games you're either an American soldier or a Japanese high school student, I'd love to hear other people around the world telling their stories
