I don't play moblie games or even not many of PC games so I don't undersand the whole hype about it. What's so special about this PubG game?
yes this game was also banned in Pakistan temporarily, mainly because the government was concerned that It was hurting the youth of Pakistan ( a couple of deaths seemingly occured directlr or indirectly from the game). However they faced a huge backlash and eventually unbanned the game after cases in court.
As for your views sohamb, I personally think India is trying to create Its own monopoly on games, like if they ban PUBG, other developers will come up with similar games with similar mechanics but whatever they earn won't go to China, I think that's the main aim of India's action to ban pubg/tiktok. India's trying to show that they dont "need" China's apps and that they can switch to their own versions of the game if they wanted to.
