yeah ive been playign smash bros since 64, albeit casually

well,its not blocked

they dont block the ip

but the firewall SLOWS shit that goes outside of the country and that comes in

to encourage people to use chinese sites and services

so its very hard to play people

damn

isn't there a big enough playerbase in china tho ?

nah, not really

and even then, its still slow

Didn't they had a big community in dota 2 ?

Or do they have servers in China ?

the problem is that if you want to have an online game i nchina, it has to go through the government

so games like WoW, titanfall, ff14, they uall have their own chinese versions

where its f2p

because chinks dont buy games

but they pay per hour to play them

and a chinese company has to handle the game/servers

Feels bad again

according to law

so i played the chink version of ff14, and even though the original game has different language options, this one didnt

and i had to put in my chinese ID (i dont have one, so i used my girlfriends) so they can track and measure how much the kids are playing

Thanks chinese monitoring

i got on and started typing some basic chinese shit into the general chat like "hello, im a foreigner"

and my girlfriend started translating. was fucking hilarious

And I though we we're in a bad situation with American bullshit + MS/Apple

Where are you in mother China ?

Wuhan

More than my whole country, kekers.

damn

when you speak to chinese people through text, you can tell english isnt their first

even if they have english degrees from college

but speaking english with europeans
