The NA vs China Saph was interesting. I wonder what happens when they enter the bosses room? on NA all the bones twirl around and form Saph, is it just like chunks of dragon of the other server? haha
Breadromancer isnt real…
Chinese goverment is all about fake posing, in reality they dont care about their own values at all it seems if you look at the true history of communist china.
It's mainly due to cultural things especially among the older generation. It's considered ill omen to talk about death, or show remains of any kind especially skeletons. It's why 444 is considered a bad number in China. Most of the actual player doesnt care seeing this kind of things but China's regulation board have very strong opinions about it.
For a long time people can't even say the word "censorship" 和谐 (he xie) in Chinese so we used the slang River Crab (he xie) in discussions to avoid being flagged.
This is so stupid. Thank god I'm not Chinese, what a headache.
Considering the Stratholme incident with grain, bread should be hella scary in the Warcraft universe, so bread wasn't actually such a bad choice
Be a communist dictatorship responsible for persecuting and murdering millions of people, expect a game developer to remove any references to death. Welcome to PRC.
Why are they such cowards about death? OoOooOo, eternal paradise and a free mansion for everyone! So scary!
nice info. Dsnt make much diff both sides of the realm are equally brainwashed by the leeches control
Well, Fade Knight is at least better than Fake Knight
well, if this was out during the middle ages, those who made it and those who played the game would be burned at the stake so.. haha. cant really blame the chinese all that much xd
"There's never enough baguettes", says the french dev
so, in Cataclysm… Fart Wing?
did they remove cooking profession?
One of DK's mounts is censored. Instead of getting this massive boney dragon, China ended up getting a… black griffin.
1:10 What kind of dumbass line was that?
A sentence in china:
"I think wrath of the bread king was the best expansion. The walking people who were made of fabric were really cool. The ice crown citadel raid was good. I liked the second boss for some reason. Lady Loafwhisper. And the bread king. Icecrown zone was full of "htaed" on backwards. Wow."
Western players begged blizzard for over a decade to get those undead bones covered as a toggle option. Idk why it took so long
Damn, I was really looking forward to seeing the Lich King with bread on his shoulders
Bread eh? So the cult of the damned are like Italian or something?
damn and i thought wow couldnt get anymore pathetic. breadcore has to be the worst.
Ah yes… because the CCP isn’t AT ALL linked the the deaths of dozens of millions of Chinese, it is ABSOLUTELY IMPERATIVE that nothing that is linked to death be hidden from the poor minds of the “stupid” populous…
China got "money" simple as that.
3:52 is just brilliant, my new favorite line
the non linear display of replacing skulls with other things probably has to do with not allowing skulls connected to a human figure. all the existing skulls are just detached skulls not connected to something representing being attached to a human figure.
Damn, wish project ascension let us have this bread filled version as a mod.
I wonder what the called Deathwing…
Watching this because i love Madseason 2021 <3
cant have anything to do with death but can kill ought and have it in their streets on show for a appetiser absolutely backwards
Now they replaced woman with fruits 😂
"I never understood why spine appears thru the clothes"….cuz blizzard is absolute dog shit
but then at the same time there are very popular asian horror movies in china, ive never seen such gore. Blood, bones and organ splatter everywhere
