…why are we pretending like it was obviously there would be nearly a million concurrent players on steam? There have been plenty of games that meet your description that haven’t hit this milestone. The fact that it “sold well” isn’t the point being made here lol.

There have been plenty of games that meet your description that haven’t hit this milestone. Okay, I'll admit I'm not super familiar with the Chinese game market, I could be full of shit. Care to provide some examples?
-
This is dumb. Why should we treat chinese people not as gamers?? It has been praised by anyone. I agree they are billions but you can't minimize the impact this game is having just by saying it is the chinese market!

\ looks at all the asian mmo games with gatcha mechanics, loot boxes and P2W** CEOs are going to be CEOs no matter east or west. Plenty of great Asian games but let's not pretend it's all sunshine and rainbows.

Seems like the answer is 'it depends.' Very stylish, very cinematic, very pretty, but I've seen people complaining that it doesn't play especially well. Also might have some performance issues.

Game with a strong visual appeal made for the largest consumer base on the planet with a strong culture of patriotic consumerism sells well, more at 11

Because why does it that most players are Chinese lmao It's still very much successful, though. Game had 100k players during the downtime of East Asia

Can't wait for whatever their next game is . Most of all I can't wait for whatever the composer cooks up . That guy was on absolute demon time for pb0
-
Considering they were heavily marketing it in their home country I’m not surprised. English reviews on steam are dwarfed by Chinese 10:1 right now.
-
Is this just because of hype or is the game actually good? I made that mistake twice so I'm cautious.
-
We would all be better, including your karma, without your unnecessary and nonsense comment. :p
-
How? The internet is acting like this is a huge game outside of China when it isn't.
-
is anyone still interested in GTA VI? I would have though Enshrouded at this point
