This is a Chinese game!

[Лёша Картизол]

Do you really think that there won’t be p2w here? Just look at the Chinese market, it will be the equivalent of Tarkov and COD with its rainbow skins.

[𝐎ᥣᑯ𝐑𝖾ᑯ𝐅ⱺ𝗑]

So don't buy it.

[PYRACOR]

Id be more worried about China collecting on my system like they do with every company chinese owned since they have ties to the PRC. Rainbow skins are the least of your worries.

Valorant doesn't have P2W. Fortnite doesn't. What about Discord? Path of Exile doesn't unless you count stash space and all that.

You would have an EASIER time finding games that Tencent didn't invest in than ones they have cause there are too many.

I don't think you understand how much of the world China owns. The movies you're watching in Theaters, the TV Shows on your TV, That land across the street. The doctors office you were in? Chinese owned. A huge chunk of all hospitals in the USA are owned by Chinese investor firms.

Ironically also why deaths are going up cause they cut corners for the investors.

Let's see:

Tencent owns 30% of Larian Studios (Baldur's Gate 3)
Tencent owns 100% of Grinding Gear Games (Path of Exile 1&2)
Tencent owns 100% of Riot games (League & Valorant)
Tencent owns 35% of Epic games (Fortnite & Unreal Engine)
Tencent owns 100% of Funcom (Conan Exiles & Dune: Awakening)
Tencent acquired a majority stake in Techland (Dying Light & Dying Light 2)
Tencent owns 97% of Digital Extremes through Leyou (Warframe)
Tencent acquired a majority stake in Fatshark (Warhammer 40,000: Vermintide & Darktide)
Tencent acquired a major stake in 10 Chambers (GTFO, Den of Wolves)
Tencent owns a majority stake in Stunlock Studios (V Rising)
Tencent owns a majority stake in Turtle Rock Studios (Back 4 Blood)
Tencent owns 100% of The Chinese Room through Sumo Digital (Vampire: the masquerade - bloodlines 2)
Tencent owns 100% of Sharkmob AB (Exoborne)
Tencent holds a minority stake in Eleventh Hour Games (Last Epoch)
Tencent owns 42% of Don't Nod (Vampyr & Life is Strange)
Tencent owns 20% of Shift Up (Stellar Blade)
Tencent owns 20% of Bloober Team (Silent Hill 2 remake)
Tencent owns 16% of FromSoftware (Elden Ring, Souls games)
Tencent owns 14% of Remedy Entertainment (Alan Wake 2)
Tencent owns 13.6% of Krafton (PUBG)
Tencent owns 9.99% of Ubisoft

Let me know which one of the developers/games mentioned above are known for pay to win, I'd like to know. (In case ppl don't know, Morefun Studios is a subsidiary of Tencent.)

I don't understand this statement, are you just clueless?

Tencent owns a part of UBISOFT and actually housed many of R6 siege's lobbies on servers that they own and operate in the west.

Tencent also own 30% of FromSoftware, so all of your profile information when playing any of the souls games were saved on Tencent infrastructure, as well.

Quit being hypocritical...if you'd really be worried, you wouldn't have bought, nor played, any of those games. And yet...you did...

Literally untrue. You clearly have no idea how the world governments work through subversion that is publicly acknowledged and proven. China does its data collection through Chinese owned companies by force of authoritarian rule. Russia does not. Tarkovs devs do not work directly for Putins regime where Tencent does for Ping

as long you play games through Steam you will be fine. Seriously there is no information on you that can be valuable to the Chinese government or any government, let’s be real.

i mean Back 4 Blood was an utter joke and a soulless game, Ubisoft is one of the most generic scummiest AAA studios around with their downgrades and egregious pricing structures for their games in recent year's and PUBG is literally a perfect example of what the OP's point is, that game started serious and now you have rainbow weeaboo skins running around. Those three points i would remove but the rest yeah very solid games.

Yeah I forgot how bad PUBG was, because I stopped playing it years ago 😆. I agree it’s awful. As for Ubisoft, tbh I don’t even play their games, I have no idea they are that bad lol.

You are wrong, I can explain it to you if you are concerned but I don’t want to type out a whole explanation in here if you are disinterested. If you are add me and I can inform you on what you are really at risk for when playing a game owned by a communist dictatorship. The laws in the US don’t protect you from foreign entities products.

[Furburger]

Arena breakout is just mobile tarkov. Store has plenty of P2W and predatory schemes. No doubt they are coming to PC. Compared to this Unheard edition would sound like an amazing deal.
