This makes gamers around the world - including Vietnamese gamers or believe on Facebook, Reddit, Twitter . become excited and eager to wait for it to come true, because gamers have long You are often associated with the full-frame chat lines and the notorious fraudster in the game.

Most of the global games do not support Chinese characters, so you only see the whole square.

So when Taiwanese newspaper Taiwan News said that after banning the game Animal Crossing because some foreign gamers took advantage of propagating some of the banned content, world gamers were glad to catch gold. According to the newspaper, the bill has appeared in major provinces and cities, and is expected to expand nationwide. The newspaper cites an article in Section 3C Khoa Ky of LTN, a Chinese website.

According to what I read from the LTN article, in the new ban, games with online features will not be able to connect to global servers or features like online chat between gamers in many countries. And yet, even existing games will be forced to remove existing features. This means that national and foreign gamers will be completely separated, forced to play on different servers and not to communicate with each other.

Other restricted categories related to gaming control mentioned include all gamers and game platforms must confirm their real names when shopping or downloading games offline or peer to peer games (i.e. a game host for other players to join). The use of features such as creating maps, designing costumes, forming parties . to post content of political propaganda in the game is also criticized, not banned as in the original article on the newspaper. Taiwan stated. The game also cannot contain content such as zombies, plagues to avoid being associated with 'Wuhan pneumonia' (excerpt from the original text of the original article).

A number of other regulations are also mentioned, such as prohibiting minors from playing games from 10pm the night before to 8pm the next day, not playing online games for more than 3 hours a day on holidays and 90 minutes on weekdays.

World War Z had a fairly successful shooting game, but the movie part 2 was canceled.

The things mentioned above are not too strange for world gamers. The fact that gamers of this country are known for being strict about censorship has limited playing time or the amount of money has been mentioned for a long time, while regulations on the verification of accounts by real names, internal censorship using games and blocking images of skulls, zombies, and epidemics has been implemented for a long time. Some famous examples are the fact that skeletons in the localized World of Warcraft are covered with flesh and Karthus in League of Legends is 'changed head' to be black. In fact, the ban also spread to all other types of entertainment, and is one of the reasons why the movie World War Z 2 was canceled early in 2019 because it will not be able to be shown in this market. Not enough expected revenue. So,what Taiwan News wrote proved quite reasonable when compared to the situation of game censorship ever.

Karthus in League of Legends localized version of your country suffer the 'on behalf of' situation.

However, after trying to find the root of the story, we must say that maybe the world's gamers were a little bit excited. In the original article of the Chinese language website LTN, the author said his source came from . a gaming forum, but there was no link to any forum that Beetle could read and verify. In fact, even if the LTN article has a link to the source, it may be just a gossip, a prank or sarcastic joke by the gamer after Animal Crossing is unloaded from the shelves and No longer continue to be sold.

Therefore, I would like to conclude that the possibility of 'foreign countries' gamers being banned from communicating with foreign gamers via online games is . very high duck news. Of course, there is still a possibility that this will be true because the country's gaming market is famous for its strict censorship measures both in game content and users. But even if that happens, gamers in your country will still be able to have a small number of 'firewalls' play on foreign servers and bring hacks and cheats with them to continue breaking the game.
