Am I crazy not to trust Chinese developed games ?

There is no question over the last 10 years the quality and production level of Chinese developed games has seem to sky rocket. Many of these games even being free to play. But honestly I haven’t played a single one. For the same reasons I refused to download TikTok.

China is a well known surveillance state. I worry downloading and playing these games especially on a PC or mobile phone would just be a huge privacy risk.

Am I being to paranoid ? Are there some regulations I’m not aware of that might protect me anyway ?

I feel like I’m missing out on some really high quality visually striking games because of it

Why would you even care about a Chinese social credit score if you aren't going to china anyway.

Apart from the inherent racism, they just bark to the wrong tree since they also cannot comprehend their state are the "bad guys".

With the US it's scary because they control large parts of my digital life and banking. And they have shown not to be above weaponising this control.
