First of all, I am a Chinese gamer. In China, VPN is prohibited, and the use of VPN may be fined or detained. You can only use VPN to connect to a single game through legal software. To distribute games in China, you must pass the examination and obtain the distribution license. However, there are some sensitive words, such as "blood", "death", "murder", etc., and even "chasing" and "beating" cannot pass the review, so there are few games that can be played in China. We can only play games abroad through Steam and other platforms.And in China, minors can also prevent addiction. Only 20:00-21:00 Beijing time on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays can play games. We didn't think of SteamChina, but there was no way. Many Chinese gamers want to transfer their Steam to Hong Kong, China, or Argentina and Türkiye.

Games on Steam China should be approved by the government first by a pretty opaque examination system, as we known it had cost Tencent over ＄ 250 billion market value due to it‘s inaction “accident” 2020. As for independent game developers？They must cooperat with oligarchs who have better relations with the gov., include Tencent itself, begging for the approve with their precious money and time. Also don't forget turns over your game’s ban words database working in your game in a CD Rom, every game must has a massive and smart ban words database that also need to be approved.

If you are under 18 and sign up with your ID, you will be limited to only allowed to play during 8:00PM - 9:00PM in Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. (Chinese time).

Speaking of the mega corporations, Google seems to be staying off, if it is moral or political or marketing, whatever, the end result, in them refusing to do business in China, matters more than the reasoning behind.
