I wonder what's going to happen in Western gaming studios. You have the businessmen who want to tap into the huge Chinese market, and you have the leftist commie activists who view video games as a way to spread far left messages. But you can't be in China while spreading these messages at the same time. So what? Are they going to fight or are we going to get versions for China that have all the lefty bullshit removed?

It wouldn't be that difficult to have a removable gay character, a removable gay scene, a removable gay mission, etc.
