- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

It signifies that chinese made games about chinese/buddhist mythology will be incredibly popular in China.
People go nuts for soulsclones regardless but given that this is probably the very first chinese mythology soulslike with professional production values no one should be at all surprised that it sells in China and abroad. Also the fact that it's cheaper than china than any other region on earth is certainly a factor in it's sales.
As of right now, of it's overall 354,187 steam reviews, only 14,757 are in english.
Keep in mind that the US and Western Europe combined have about a third of China's population.
Id argue Wolong: Fallen Dynasty was the first but I agree with you on all other points.
