This has the feel of following in the steps of China divesting itself from Microsoft in favor of Linux and other open source alternatives.

Bye bye..

Can confirm some uneasiness 😅

Tencent ultimately answers to the Chinese people via the Chinese government, which means no matter how bad they get they are never going to get as bad as a western corporation. This ain't so bad.

But also it doesn't matter if they do. W4 Games doesn't own the Godot engine or have any control over it - some W4 employees are also Godot developers, but they don't get special privileges compared to other Godot devs. And W4 *works with* Godot, but so does Electronic Arts. Also forking is easy.

Ehh, Tencent practically has shares in every major publishing company, so it's not as "bad" as people think it is. Money's money at the end of the day.
