Alex 94, 02 Sep 2020Why? Cause they are better than others? Good answer,mate...
Back in the day there was "if you can't beat them,join them" saying...Today, it's "if you can't beat them,ban them"...

    Goodjob India

      Anders, 02 Sep 2020Just play COD mobile. It's better anywayNot really with you there. Pubg is much more classy, has much more style
      Also after the new update of cod I basically lost all my gun upgrades, so I stopped playing (I was rank like 85, so quite big)

        Alex 94, 02 Sep 2020It's our fault cause they are better than we are. Cong... moreUnlike them, most europeans do a thing called "casual gaming", where we don't play all night long until we go blind, but we do as much as our schedule lets us, and as much as we like.
        Now you might go: but heey there are still plenty of gamers in europe-No. Comparing europe's population, which mostly consisnts of instagrammers and small villages where there is no internet (looking at middle to eastern europe, not france), to india's is like comparing a fully developed frog to a small little fishy. They are triple of population, and even so the so called percentage of "real gamers" is bigger at them.

          we are more worried about Chinese hacking and less worried about famous companies beautifully getting customer accept privacy policy and agreements so they can lawfully take data from all electronic devices . and funny part is even if you turn of those feature , even then they keep own stealing data . on top off I recently came to know many thirdparty apps we install embedded many tracking signatures , so even we disable those features they are still tracking us through other sources such as thirdparty apps and then state actors comes in . So china is doing what other countries are doing.

              They will soon hear of Streisand effect

                What a discrimination. Big support to China from Europe.

                      Penk2856, 02 Sep 2020Was Fortnite on the list?Epic Games, the makers of Fortnite are a US company. So I guess not...

                      If you are referring to Tencent being part owners they only own 40% of the company

                        very good step by indian government

                          "What goes around, comes around"

                            Just play COD mobile. It's better anyway

                              Wow... Many Indians love PUBG... Indians are going to go absolutely nutz over this.

                              China is focusing on its self. All the best phones are only available in China... All the best games such as Game for Peace are China only...

                              China is telling the world... We are huge. We are powerful. We don't need you... But you need us...

                              China is unstoppable. They will always overcome. And they always seem to keep going. They are like a machine...

                                Every game is addictive. Are you telling govt to ban all games?
                                That too perfect timing. During pandemic. Kids have to go out and play something now.

                                  Whackcar, 02 Sep 2020So India is showing their anti-China stance by behaving jus... moreThere are some territory issues between the 2 country, so India is responding with banning these things.

                                      Kudos to Indian govt for doing that. PUBG is a really cringy game, and young kids get too addicted to it, so if less people use it, the better... Hopefully the US too will follow a similar stance.
