There goes the idea of in-game marriages

How many current games on the market will have to drop in-game marriages so the game can pass China's new laws if passed?

There just won't be official wedding dresses.
Aren't undead still restricted in any mmo that has their game in China?
Formerly T-Elf
devs can cut out pieces out of the game for specific regions if they want to, so every1 else could get dresses just not the chinese ones just to name an example ofc:D
that could either end up in the game having 2 versions or just they are unable to see dresses entirely (region blocked cosmetics, so that wedding dresses would just look like robes or something while every1 outside china would see the actual thing)
Will you be my eternal friend?
Doesn't have the same ring to it.
Should IS believe that Ashes can be profitable without mainland China (yeah, I said it) then it's up to them to make the game they believe in and want to play.
I don't see this having much of an effect on the way this game is developed, or the content that is added in.
If Intrepid see value in launching in China, then the need to comply with that list can simply be added to the need to comply with other existing laws in changes they would need to make to the games client for China.
Depends on if they base them in Oz. At first they were listed as OCE/SEA as the region, but I guess someone figured out that Oceanic and South East Asia would be two different server clusters and now all we see are posts and confirmation of OCE. Wouldn't affect either region though. The hoops that Intrepid would have to go to have their game greenlit in China would bankrupt them, no matter how many gajillions Steven has. With no IP blocking planned there are going to be hordes of Chinese anywhere you go. People worried about western mega guild ruining play for people haven't seen nuttin yet. Wait till the Chinese decide they want in. There is a great video of Atlas out there and a Chinese crew just throwing wave after wave of naked pirates at a ship of the damned, like 150 of them with hatchets, and they kill it.
True.
But that is an issue with those countries laws; not with the game developers.
