Tried the demo of AI limit on steam few days ago, it's a dark souls type game. Great game, nice vibe and audio, nice environment graphics and lighting, combat is fun and lots of upgrades etc.



Never follow this game nor heard of it. The moment I saw the video my immediate impression was "this art style looks like a Chinese game".

Some Google search shows that I was totally right lol. Chinese games really like to look the same...

Pass!

Edit: it even features white hair protagonist, Chinese Otaku's favorite kink. Omg. Double pass because I am not really into white hair characters.

Why do you dislike Chinese people making games?


I didn't say I dislike Chinese people making games, I said they often look the same. And I dislike the "same style fatigue" that I am experiencing from endless YouTube Chinese gacha ads. And now this same old gacha art style is invading single player game space which is just lame.

Another random mobile game ad that I just saw, out of maybe 100 same-y looking new games per month.



If you look at Japanese anime game art, they mostly look different.
Ni no Kuni, SaGa, Kingdom Hearts, Disgaea series, Dragon Quest, Lost Odyssey etc all look drastically different from each other, featuring each character designer's style.

Chinese anime game industry only has one popular style and everyone copies it. And they mass produced the same style over and over, it's easy to get tired from seeing it all the time.

I'll support western games when they stop making crap, till then Winnie the Pooh ftw.


How about support whoever that doesn't make crap, regardless of their location? Lol.

I support creativity and new ideas in games. Not same thing that's been done one million times.

I don't have grandma anymore, so nobody is sad here, at least not on Earth.

Also old women in my region generally dye their hair. So it's easy to avoid having grey hair anyways.

Radial, if you are into Ciri, your taste is questionable. ;)

Only thing most western devs are good at, is making people mad with bs


I am not mad at western games, you are!

I've played 3 games since 2025 so far, all 3 are western games. I was considering buying Xbox series S for more western games on game pass.

I think what matters the most in entertainment product is novelty. Once you are exposed to one particular style too much, you want something different.

Lol I've almost never used reddit. I got into a debate and got rated down on every post. Now it auto deleted my posts. So if a bunch of goons disagree with your opinion and vote you down all at once, you are basically silenced? What happened to freedom of speech!

You still have freedom of speech, just not freedom of writing!

By the way, one of the western game that I recently completed is Mass Effect 2. And one of the romance-able female character looks like this.



I bet if this game is released in 2024, it'll be burned down by angry anti-woke mob because of this character, lol.

(This character is pretty well-written though, brilliant character design and brilliant story.)

It's weird to me, you're so open you dislike it just cause Chinese hands made it?

Well, I think I was pretty open about it before.

Also the theme that I prefer to see in a story is generally going to be banned in China. I prefer man v.s modern society kind of theme with political critism in story, something like 1984 by George Orwell or Disco Elysium. And there is no way that mainland Chinese are allowed to write this kind of story, it's a taboo in the mainland.

So I highly doubt mainland Chinese Dev can ever create my dream game ever. Not unless they move to a different region and accept different kind of value from mainland education.

I mean I am open for the possibility that I can be wrong about Chinese creative industry, and I'll happily embrace my dream game made by Chinese if it happened. But I don't see it happening soon.

Yeah but I think because my account didn't have many posts, it caused my "karma"to go under 15. Now anything i post has an auto delete. Basically silenced because people disagree with me, even though it wasn't trolling or anything hateful. Lame honestly lol I can't even reply to people relying to me. It even says i can go to some sites to farm my karma like what

She looks like that for a reason. She is a great character.


So apparently the problem isn't "female character doesn't look attractive" at all. The problem is just writing quality. A problem that can happen to Asian games too. (I've dropped countless Asian games in the past for this reason too.)

Don't know why you have to target games from specific region instead of the content.
