@lategamer @kyonshi@lemmy.ml actually not much as such, but one barely hears about roleplaying games in that part of the world, and to have it big enough to elicit a government response is interesting, don't you think?

@kyonshi @kyonshi@lemmy.ml are we saying it’s an untapped market for western games? 😉

China is so big that the untapped extremes of behaviour in smaller countries become reality. The problem must be serious if the government is stepping in. What triggered it, I wonder.

@lategamer @kyonshi@lemmy.ml why does it always have to be a market?

I'm more interested in the mindshare rpgs have there. How are they playing? What are they doing? Is it only larps?

@kyonshi @kyonshi@lemmy.ml why do people take stuff so literally when there’s literally an emoticon. Nice one. 🙄
