According to “Xiaoting Xulu,” Emperor Qianlong of the Qing dynasty ordered Zhang Wenmin to produce a performance, “The Peaceful Raft of Ascension,” depicting the Journey to the West. The script, written by Zhang, was crafted to uphold the idea of “domestic peace,” using the play to reinforce the Qing dynasty’s rule. After Wukong’s defeat by Buddha, the creators added a celebratory scene titled “Taming the Greedy Tiger and Bringing Peace to Heaven.” Wukong, referred to as “the Greedy Tiger,” was portrayed as the disruptive force and enemy of the Qing’s order. The theme of “suppressing the rebellious” ran throughout.

Who is even the author of this article? No author is listed. It says it is an opinion piece. Whose opinion is this? There is a reference link to a quora-like website, but the link is an unrelated question. The question on Zhihu asks people how they feels about a video on bilibili called "Who wrote journey to the west?", which doesn't seem specifically about the game. The commentor on Zhihu seems to be someone who doesn't like the story of "Journey to the West", not specifically the game.
