History

Themes

Prejudice

Possibly started in the 2010s, C-Gaming community, like most Chinese-Speaking Fandom, has adopted narrative that promotes Chinese nationalism. Some Chinese gamers believe that right advocates in western countries, usually Western liberals, are responsible for the creation of perceived objectionable games,[note 1] and that persecution against them is acceptable.

Internet slang

Multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) video games, such as League of Legends, are viewed as being popular in mainland China. Several Internet slang in mainland China are originated from MOBA games and have been used outside the C-Gaming community.

Notes

  1. ^ Games which are frequently mentioned as "objectionable" include Frostpunk (2018), The Last of Us Part II (2020), Concord (2024)
