Chinese soft power created through entertainment can and will climb if they support these industries.

I can't keep up with the culture war stuff. Is the game chud or woke? Based or cringe?

It's both at the same time.

Woke - because it's Chinese evil SeeSeePee brainwashing

Chud - because Gamers™ align with the claims(?) of sexism within the company that made the game.

The game itself is unremarkable in terms of culture war stuff.

Some of the developers said some insulting bullshit about female gamers a while back and the company has a few vocal techbro creeps, and a female game reviewer said there weren't enough female characters, so the chuds rallied to culture war on the side of the game.
