I mean, it is a a political allegory, considering the Chinese base influences the superstructure or the culture of a society (eg. Game industry of MiHoyo), but for me, it's not really specifically Communist, or specifically Marxist Leninist in its outlook....

Think about it, there's not much discussion about the economic base, the workings of imperialism on economics and culture, dialectics, or even discussion about the progressive intersection between cultural, economic, and anti-imperialist struggles...

or dialectics and immanent critique

(though as the plot advances on, I may be proven wrong or that they were just there all along, since I'm a baby MLenist...)

That being said, even if it is such a MLenist game, from a meta perspective, it is a Gacha game and my opinion is that the ideology doesn't really matter, in comparison to the base of which it defends (It's financially-funded well-to-do game, probably from the rich cities of Guangdong or Shanghai)

Taking the note from an essay https://redsails.org/masses-elites-and-rebels/#strategy-and-imagination

It’s absurd to see people rabidly complaining about, say, BBC’s China reporting being rife with orientalist falsehood, then turn around to make excuses for why the same exact stereotypes must be tolerated or even praised as they worm their way through high-budget entertainment productions. It’s absurd to see communists defend sinking dozens upon dozens of hours into reactionary, soul-crushing media like Breaking Bad or Mad Men or Game of Thrones, then turn around to ridicule and condemn the entire realm of ideological struggle as mere superstructure. A common refrain goes: “The news must be reported correctly, but let people enjoy things — artistic freedom is sacrosanct.” I deem this nonsense liberalism. When we do this, what we throw out the window comes right around through the backdoor.

In reality, entertainment media and news media serve the same propaganda purpose: they target not our reasoned beliefs about right and wrong, but our perception of social risks and rewards. People’s actual rationality, their ability to discern cause and effect, is far too resilient to be tampered with when their own immediate interests are at stake. People’s pride, however, is much more malleable. For communists to refuse to challenge media that makes them invisible — or, worse, aggressively humiliates them — is to surrender before the fight is even scheduled. And I genuinely believe that we do this every single time we refuse to challenge an Orwellism, or a Nietzscheanism. We have largely failed to create nourishing communist alternatives — not only in reality, as with the Black Panther breakfast program, but also as far as the imagination goes. And in the realm of imagination, as in others, nature abhors a vacuum. In absence of social-realist agitprop, Orwellism thrives.

That being said, it's a good treat for me...
