    They don’t need to do anything except weather some consumer backlash for a title or two. Eventually as publishers make their games compatible with Chinese regulations, they’ll stop making games with content that offends China. Players may not even realize it’s happening and publishers get to spend less money. So say goodbye to skeletons and such in massive games.
