ok, umm… so, i’m a little confused. since none of the verboten themes are actually present in the game, why is the game launch being DDoSed? i’m guessing that online backlash to the restrictions has been… typical, but if the restrictions don’t really connect to any actual game content, what gives?
The restrictions are on people who are playing the game(and showing it off prior to release).
The restrictions are showing that the company selling the game is kinda shitty.
We cannot say for certain but it’s possible that someone(s) in the first group, the customers, is trying to disrupt the sales for a game from a shitty company.
The people who care about and released the restrictions and the people who would be affected by the attack are the same people. The attack isn’t about in-game themes because if it was they simply wouldn’t launch the game.
They were doing so well until Xi Xinpoohbear took over.
Are you sad that—only coincidentally during Xi’s term—you found out that “reform and opening up” was never intended to be nor was ever going to be the neocolonialization of China like you hoped? Things are largely going according to China’s long-term plan, that was laid out long before Xi.
They forced unusual guidelines in the second half to influencers and streamers who have received a key from them.

Are those themes actually present in game, or is this another “please don’t hurt our feelings” from China?
The second one.

The devs may not be shitty, they just have to protect themselves from their government.

CCP has been fucked up and backwards since it’s inception.
Really? I’m pretty sure they never allowed owning another human beings unlike some other counties.
Which is so shicking after such a great leap forward. /s
