LOL at Chinese martial arts. A Chinese MMA fighter had several challenge matches vs traditional Chinese masters and he dominated all of them. He was forced to wear clown make up, had travel restrictions placed on him and endured other punishments from the Chinese government for embarrassing traditional Chinese fighting systems.

China is purposely keeping Chinese martial artists ignorant of MMA advancements to preserve their culture. I believe they have Shaolin, Tai Chi, Wu-Shu and other styles taught in school and have no intention of updating.

Even in UFC, Weilei (Sp?) tried to credit her Muay Thai coach for winning her championship but she got censored by her translator b/c China doesn't endorse outside martial arts.

im aware of what you're talking about but idk what it has to do with the game in the op. its clearly trying to emulate wuxia which is just a chinese fantasy fiction genre about wandering weapon-wielding heroes with stuff like wizards and magic swordfights and wirework

I was going off on a tangent b/c OP made me recall this example. Something about communists burning libraries and willfully keeping their citizens ignorant bothers me.

I'm American and I am aware that our government isn't squeaky clean. But China is in another league. Esp considering biological warfare like COVID originated there.

Went off on another tangent. Oh well.

He wanted to beat up a bunch of Detroit Urban Survival Tactics guys. It wasnt about disrespecting the martial arts directly, just people who were self proclaimed masters that were exploiting the culture for personal gain.

K but the government was supporting the frauds and suppressing the truth of MMA being the present + future.

I've built a mini-arcade of Arcade1up machines. 1up is slowing down and retailers (I like QVC and HSN) are carrying less of their products.

They own the engine but you can make your own that does the same shit as long as you don't use any of their code.

The game looks like it was probably just made in Unity.

USA Citizen: "Why'd you come to America?"

Chinese Student: "To learn how to properly do Propaganda"

USA Citizen: "But there's no Propaganda here."

Chinese Student: "Exactly."
