  You can only get Devotion on Red Candle’s website, thanks to Chinese censorship bullshit. It got pulled off Steam, then when GOG said they would sell it, they freaked out because they were worried about CP2077 sales and claimed “gamers” complaining made them change their mind (but wouldn’t respond to anyone asking for specifics).

    Why would it be affected by Chinese censorship? Is it critical of the ccp? Or just because it’s a taiwanese game?

      There was a random art asset that compared Xi Jinping to Winnie the Pooh that didn’t get taken out in time.

      Their partner in China got their business license pulled, and they took the game off Steam when it started getting review bombed. It was a big mess over the stupidest thing.
