Game Science Is Reportedly Making Content Creators Promise Not To Discuss Feminism, Politics For Black Myth: Wukong Codes - eviltoast

Black Myth: Wukong developer Game Science is reportedly trying to ban content creators from discussing certain topics in exchange for game codes.

In a leaked document, which at least one content creator has publicly stated they received from Game Science, there is a “do’s and dont’s” section, telling those who receive a code what they cannot discuss in their content. Here, the document informs those with Black Myth: Wukong codes that they cannot include “politics” and “feminist propaganda” in their coverage of the game, among other topics.

    Because I am a believer in death of the author. That means that a developer doesn’t get to decide what their game is or isn’t about.

    A dev could have put in a theme unintentionally. Does that mean you are not allowed to talk about it?

    Why do they get to decide what a work of art means to me?
