maciu67 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I still can't believe what Klei done. An agreement with Tencent is like a pact with the devil. This company is powerfull tool in chinese goverment's hands (just as e.g. Huawei). 23% of their emploees are active members of Communist Party of China, 60% of whom are employed in managerial positions., so we can be sure that evveryone who install new home on telephone will be spied by friends from china. Other problem is Tescent want to control more and more market of video-entertainment and everythink what is inconvenient for china may be hushed. @Golden Pooch already mentioned e.g. Blitzchung incident (Tencent has ownership in Blizzard) but there are much more examples. Tencent is a vile bastard of chinese propaganda. It's sad to say but Klei treated Don't Starve like sh*t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZTheNecromancer Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 You're making a mountain out of a molehill of it. Besides, I'd hate to admit it, but I believe that something good can come from something bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BreadScientist Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Both the United States Government and the Chinese Government are actively spying and spreading propaganda intentionally. This is obviously the case. However, Tencent's "connection to the Chinese government" is largely based on unfounded claims. China is a State Capitalist country, not a communist country. What this means is that businesses, while technically private, are heavily monitored by the government. Tencent is not unique in this aspect."23% of their emploees are active members of Communist Party of China" is potentially misleading. I would like to see your source on this. China doesn't use the "democratic" system the USA uses, so most people are "members of the CCP" because that is the only primary "political group" that is available to join. I want to see your source on this to see if this means those people are members of the party with some amount of power, rather than just people who support a political group. Yes, China does use propaganda to keep themselves seen in the positive light by their citizens. So does the USA, and every other major imperialist country. Tencent themselves are not a "threat to the industry" or anything of the sort. This game is probably going to suck nuts, because it's a ftp mobile game. I don't like ftp mobile games. But this isn't the end of the world, and Klei didn't betray their fans. If it makes you feel better, at least they put some of the Tencent money they probably received into their 1 million donation to BLM, so at least that's a little comforting, right?

Brago-sama Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Only thing I know about them is that they made monster hunter online, an inferior version of monster hunter world. Edit: Although technically it was made with Capcoms approval in response to Joychina creating hunter blade, a game trying to ride off on the success of monster hunter frontier, another one of Capcoms (Currently dead ;-;) babys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing the Hamlet DLC and the following spoiler for said Hamlet DLC Spoiler How seemingly cute Harmless creatures transform into horrible abominations that want you DEAD..

Very persuasive and neutral response,Community players with such a clear understanding deserve respect.Some people who look at things like using double standards will never understand this. btw I hate Tencent very much, but I will not lose the ability to think normally because I scold Tencent Sir Thank you for sharing.

Pelontriques Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I don't like Tencent very much, but, given that Klei has given the license, I'd much rather take Klei's response on it compared to this. I'm just hoping they don't make MTX the main way to proceed in-game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CameoAppearance Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 I don't like Tencent either but I was under the impression that it was a heck of a lot harder to get a game distributed in China without working with Tencent. Which Klei's been doing for years since DST is available through Tencent there; originally the Roseate skins were exclusive to it and GoH was exclusive to Steam, if I was informed correctly. As far as I'm aware Tencent doesn't own any stake in Klei or Don't Starve itself, they're just allowed to sell copies of it and now also make a spinoff game.
