Collectively, China (or at least its government) has some...odd beliefs about homosexual/bisexual relationships. Should Larian excise any potential homosexual/bisexual romance options in the hopes that their attempt sells better in that particular market?
If you continue to kowtow, eventually, the only taste you will remember is dirt.
In this case kowtow = $$$$ ....no tasting of dirt involved.
In fact from a commercial point of view I'd say kowtowing to Chinese law not only gets them access to the market and $$$ but is probably the only way to have even a slim amount of anti-piracy/IP support from the PRC.
