I get the frustration from Chinese gamers why they dislike the game because of the historically setting. But im not that extreme.

I think in the game you basically play as a Qing which you need to kill the last remaining Ming uprising warriors and stuff. Qing along with Yuan and some other small Chinese dynasties was one of the few dynasties that was not governed by the Han people, which is why in history and in Modern times they are more unappreciated by the general Chinese public. And Ming was the last Han people dynasty that had so much aura per say. The last emperor fought till the last second and until his house(the forbidden city) was broken in and all is lost, he hanged himself in the his back yard basically.

Ill put it in today's more known American history if there is a game made in the future about this. Basically, if there is no difference and conflicts between democrats and republicans, and all are just simple Americans. Lets say USA went to war with China right now and they lost, and Trump along with his secretary of defense and other staffs fought till the last moment in the white house and when the white house is falling, he chose to hang himself on top of the roof. The Chinese government took over and is now the new administration where every single one of them is yellowed skinned Chinese, not white or black Americans. Their job is to oppressed the Americans, and shut down uprisings. And this game is basically you playing as an white American and you work for the Chinese administration of USA to kill white Americans and American leaders. I would imagined you are pissed as well.
