This is amazing - they've actually made it more damning.
The original has China annexing territory and oppressing the populace, if not conducting a slow, silent genocide.
The new version has 'The Federation of China' annexing territory that now ISN'T EVEN NAMED, whilst the same story of local depopulation of now nameless people continues.
In other words, China didn't care about being painted as genocidal Han supremacists. Instead, China cared about people knowing the names of their victims.
Absolutely fucking staggering.
China's complaint to the devs was basically 'Could you erase our victims?'
I’m pretty sure it has more to do with Taiwan, Tibet, Uighur, and Inner Mongolia being portrayed as not already within China’s borders at the start. The CCP is really anal about its territorial integrity.
“This has always been my house!” claims man who drilled a hole in your wall and slept in your basement.
Censorship is dumb.
