It may or may not be allowed, but it’s mainly self censorship by companies to avoid controversy with the audience, not the government.

But it's always framed as the ministry of censorship imposing a set of strict wierd rules

I thought skeleton's were censored in China in the same way and for the same reasons that gore is censored in the west?

[-] CliffordBigRedDog@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

I think the problem is with skulls in particular?

Here's a pretty iconic item, original art and the art in the Chinese version:

Nope it's completely false.

Age of Wushu:

I'm not that far into Wukong yet but there's a "Baigujing" Skeleton Spirit in the Journey to the West novel that might make an appearance later depending on what they've drawn on.

It's literally another anti China myth generated by western developers being over cautious about Chinese regulators in the changes they make for their China localisations.

Oh wow, would you look at that. Big cringe for all the devs that perpetuate this nonsense.

Why isn’t Winnie the Pooh in this game???!? Must be see see pee censorship.

Speaking of anti-China myths about censorship, does anyone have any information on that meme that China can't show blood so all blood is coloured white? I see it constantly in memes to mock Chinese people, and would love to shove some proof into people's faces if it's not true

There is literally a scene in which you fight a boss in an arena filled knee deep with blood. Has to also be a myth.

i remember a pubg clone battle royale game circa 2018 that was also somehow a licensed terminator game, and probably existed only in china. upon death, a player just turned into some kind of blue crystal instead of a body, because everyone was a robot or matrix type program or something and no real people were harmed in-game.

it was like the biggest games in WangKas at the time and my still western-oriented brain thought the "no corpses" thing was some censorship thing but now idk
