Game Science is reportedly banning content creators who want Black Myth: Wukong codes from discussing certain topics, including "feminist propaganda".
Black Myth: Wukong developer Game Science is reportedly trying to ban content creators from discussing certain topics in exchange for game codes.
In a leaked document, which at least one content creator has publicly stated they received from Game Science, there is a “do’s and dont’s” section, telling those who receive a code what they cannot discuss in their content. Here, the document informs those with Black Myth: Wukong codes that they cannot include “politics” and “feminist propaganda” in their coverage of the game, among other topics.
I was just going to write “China’s gonna China”, but then I remember this particular studio goes a little further than that:
In one instance, a lead is said to have written that men and women play different games because of “biological conditions”, following up his comment by writing: “Fck sissies, fck tragic love stories, fuck moon-lit peach blossoms and flute-playing scholars! […] Some things are just for men, their depression, their anger, their pain…”.
The studio is also said to have shared job recruitment posters that boasted “friends with benefits” as a job perk. Another was reported to have read, “Fatties should f*ck off.”
Except he’s not saying people have different tastes. He’s saying genders have different tastes, of which only that gender can enjoy and they should enjoy them. He’s saying the opposite of what you’re implying it says.
Fuck China, but I really don’t see how this is specific to them. Lets not pretend this shit couldn’t happen (and is happening) pretty much anywhere else on the planet.

Charming.
So a 4chan edgelord is somehow running part of a company. Lovely…
I wasn’t aware that only men have depression, anger and pain. 🤔
Lots of bigoted edgelords have lots of management positions… they just aren’t actually on 4chan.
Glad I never intended to give money to these assholes.
With that attitude I won’t even pirate it
I mean, you can just ask for suicide watch straight up, instead of veiling it like that?
How dare he speak bluntly about having different tastes!
