What exactly do you think did “government scrutiny” mean by the above poster, an idea you seem to defend? It is meant to refer to the communist Vietnam government as authoritarian, because they refuse to let USA’s Steam destroy the indie game dev scene. NATO has everything to do with every single prominent USA or Europe based service or platform, which includes Steam. Steam spies on DNS cache of users for some mysterious reason too.
What exactly do you think USA/NATO has not to do with Steam and colonising the game dev scenes around the world? It accomplishes western imperialist proxy colonisation.
If NATO countries benefit from laissez faire market crap, it kinda does. Vietnam must have thought quite well about the loss of western market, when protecting its game developers. Vietnam is not a country that hates globalisation, but it will take whatever necessary steps for protection.
So if I publish a game on steam I am now a colonizer? If I am a Vietnamese citizen who downloads a game that hasn’t gone through “government scrutiny” am I now a collaborator? What if I am a Vietnamese game developer that has published directly to steam without giving a shit about whatever censorship my government is trying to implement? Should I be sent to reeducation?
Yep, this is the mindset I was trying to describe. Thanks for making my point clear. I have seen you around too much with your anti-communist politics, so I can see through your arguments, like this one where you describe Vietnamese government in a particular manner just because they decided to protect their country’s game developers.
When he said “government scrutiny”. He openly desires the laissez faire market nonsense to allow an opening for west to do what it always has. Vietnam has a far larger market outside of west in Asia, Africa, Russia and South Americas.
Tell me what the “government scrutiny” is then! I have no idea except that Vietnamese game developers find it onerous. It’s a video game, how much scrutiny does it need?
Ah yes, everyone else fault. Not that you come in here with the dumbest claim, refuse to explain it, and then just try to shit on everyone calling you out on your idiocy.
What exactly do you think NATO has to do with this situation?

I don’t think you have the slightest clue about what NATO actually is.
Because they have nothing to do with Vietnam choosing to ban steam.

NATO is a military alliance. Being part of NATO does not grant you any benefits in any market beyond perhaps weapon sales.
Being part of NATO has no meaning when it comes to game development, and sales, global otherwise.
So again. I ask the question. Why do you think NATO has anything to do with the topic?
Lmao you really have no idea what NATO is. You just use it as a buzz word

What point is it you think he made clear?
If they want to protect their developers. They would help them succeed on the global market. Make it easier for them to compete.

Are you a Vietnamese game dev? Are you a friend of one? No? Then your opinion is invalid.
And what is you think west does that it always has? You can never say anything specific. It’s always vague nonsense.
I see bad faith argumentation, I leave.
Ah yes, everyone else fault. Not that you come in here with the dumbest claim, refuse to explain it, and then just try to shit on everyone calling you out on your idiocy.
Government scrutiny means devs need the govs approval to release games, hurting their devs
