People, bare in mind, the X1 cost 5k RMB to buy, and the average salary in a big city like Beijing is at 5k/month. Console gaming has no history here (because of reasons already known) so the demand is also low.
I have claimed this for a long time here, they need to release consoles at lower price to make it attractive to the consumers. And a game can not cost 500 RMB, it is insane.
People do buy games, especially for PC, because they cost 1/10 of a console game.
What is the main reason for piracy? Because people are evil and don't want to buy a game or because they can't afford it?
This discussion is too out of hand, and it's too much aggression towards my government. Yes there's a strict policy for foreign companies and games containing strong violence etc. are harder to release here. But this not the main reason for low sales.
