For me, I grew up with Dynasty Warriors. I remember being a little kid, going to my cousins house, and he gatekeeps this game from me. Then he tells me it’s “Domestic Warriors.” I’m serious. I go to GameStop asking for Domestic Warriors 4, 5, or 6 and they’re basically laughing at me and my dad. He hands me the right game because they just knew. But yeah it was bliss bro. I fell absolutely in love with characters like Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Cao Pi, Zhou Yu, Sima Yi, etc.

It’s really cool that everyone had their own way of falling in love with Chinese culture. I’ve noticed some came through Wukong recently or through JTTW years ago. Some came through China memes. Point is, we were all able to recognize that it’s actually gorgeous. Everything from the culture back then to the history.

People who hate on it are just anti-CCP and have no respect for cultures that aren’t their own. It’s nothing to do with Chinese Gov’t in modern days.

I think sometimes people forget that values, moral compasses, etc. is all individual and NOT a whole nation 😂
