Are you kidding me? Look at all the anime and manga shit out there. Go to Barnes & Noble and they have a whole aisle dedicated to mangas and animes. Even Warhammer 40k has the Tau which are basically the chinese in space.

Cheap manufacturing.

Many tabletop games (and the companies that make them) wouldn't exist if they were forced to rely on western manufacturing process.

Go. Most definitely Go.

Though the table top RPG as we know is it mostly just soemthign that's been slowly building up as a community within the past decade or so.

Sanguosha seems to be the really BIG board game. Apparently, it is Three Kingdoms flavored but very much inspired by Bang!.

D&D has been a big deal since 3e came over back in 2000.

Most foreign games aren't in Chinese with rules spreading across the table orally.

Khan Kon tabletop conventions are a big thing in recent memory that are building up the community and the hobby. One of their big events is a Vampire larp.

Yes. Khan Kon is real. I can't fault them for having a sense of humor.

Computer loses in poker ONLY against players playing via internet, since they fully ignore the bluffing part of the game and focus on stakes and card counting. Players playing with humans meanwhile tend to loose to computer, because part of their entire playstyle is not present.

Downside being that they can and will openly fuck you over and dare you to do something about it. Witness the fate of the game Leviathans, by Catalyst Games Labs.

Wu-Xia

Mandarin for "martial hero".

Sound pretty Chinese to me.
And don't get me started on the movies made by westerners.
China has a long tradition of epics about "warrior scholars" dating back to the early middle ages.

Bluffing mostly only works in no limit games, usually Texas hold em. If it was Omaha, 7 card stud or draw poker I can assure you that players will lose to a computer no matter what.

C&P'd from an old thread:
>What happened? What didn't? There's a namefag over in the BattleTech Generals who can go into more detail, but the short version is:
>>made in China because otherwise the box'd be $200+
>>First print run was impounded by the Chinese government for breaking the 1-China policy (Taiwan was historically occupied by the Japanese, so the map had it colored as Japan. Not the same color as China).
>>Catalyst CFO stole $800,000 from Catalyst to do his personal home repairs - that money was supposed to pay for Leviathans secondary product (expansion boxes, etc). And somehow, the CFO kept his job after getting found out.
>>Tried to pry the stuff out of China, but the ship with the master mold plates on it sank on the way to Germany and the new producer
>>Lead artist died and the estate won't release the art and designs that Catalyst paid for
>>Catalyst was paying the Chinese to render 3D images of the art and create the mold plates; they asked for the CAD files and 2nd-gen mold plates to be shipped back to the US to find another producer, and the Chinese company said "pay us an extra $3 million for it all on top of what you paid us already or fuck off."

And yes, they got away with the last bit; CGL didn't have the money to pay the ransom or fight it out in court. Especially since the PRC government would've backed the locals for reasons of "fuck 'Murrica!"
If you feel like being particularly depressed one day, drop into /btg/ and ask "Not Entirely Anon" for exact details on how Leviathans and everyone interested in it got a no-lube ass-reaming, mostly by China.

More likely, it wouldn't have been even remotely profitable, with all those other losses. Even if they got the art, they'd have to start everything else from scratch (Or at least pay millions and millions to get it running again). Spending even more money to sue just wouldn't matter.
