If it’s anything like other cases of censorship in Chinese games, the company self censored excessively to avoid skirting the law, but the government probably never told them to censor anything specifically. Of course capital G Gamers will think that it’s the Communist Party banning their suspiciously underaged looking booba.
Interesting. I didn’t know it was largely self censorship. Just thought either that people in China were less comfortable with showing skin than western counterparts or that the department in charge of that was staffed by people who were out of touch with the average person. If its self censorship though you can’t even really blame the government for it, just the company.
