{
"body": "As some one who played this in the past, I saw this EoS and assumed it was cuz it's a dying game (they cancelled the half anniversary \"celebration\" a few months back for example).\n\nBut then the drama and rumors about this being related to TikTok started going around and the devs \\*are\\* really going out of their way to stop people in the US from playing. There is no \"US Server\", so they're literally ripping out individual accounts for people they flag as being in the US. Servers were already low pop, so this won't help and the game probably will die for real soon.\n\nIn any case, this game wasn't made by ByteDance (SGRA, though I don't know who owned them) and was previously published by Nuverse but apparently it's all Tencent now (owner and publisher). So something still doesn't add up.\n\nBut it might be worth keeping an eye on just in case this really is some harbinger of future issues Chinese games will have in the US.",
"replies": [
{
"body": "It's all related to TikTok and especially Chinese spying. You are correct we need to do more homework before becoming invested in any game these days. The vast majority of games are Chinese which doesn't make me feel good about my other games I play."
