Being a Chinese WoWer..

[deadplayer]

Being a Chinese WoWer, you have to bear the delay of every expansion. And moreover, you are unable to play the original version. Poor CWoWer.

Before: Festergut (the origin)

After: Storm Giant in Mainland China

Yeah, I actually heard a lot about this. Apparently Blizzard has to edit out any skulls, blood, etc. that was originally in the game. Their Frost Wyrms are more like dragons/drakes with no bones visible, etc. (at least from what I've heard).

I mean, I'm sure the Chinese version of World of Warcraft is still a good game, if not an equal game in quality, but I'd personally prefer to play it the way I play it now as an American player.

Thanks for posting this, I find this very interesting.

 

I used to have a picture of Marrowgar somewhere, I thought it was rather funny. At least they get to play the game though.

I am so, so sorry. I have a couple friends who are from China that go to my school and happen to play WoW, so I know about some pretty ridiculous things Blizzard has to change for them. I also am told there is a strict limit on the hours of playtime one is allowed if one is under the age of 16! I heard you have to enter in some code or whatever to keep track of your WoW hours lol.
