That IS the 'problem'. As has been stated, new account. Further, the games will never be linked, ever, due to China's internet information laws. The internet in China is under State control, with all the limits to information that comes with.

Lunar New Year mount go go!

(request, not saying that is)

When I first looked at the mount, my first thought was that it looked like a reskinned and slightly altered model of Behemoth... and, reading what you wrote... it all makes sense. I remember reading about the changes that would need to be made to the Chinese version of the game to comply with laws over there, namely excluding certain things deemed inappropriate... and, of course, those things would need to be altered to fit players in that region.

As people have said, the account would be 100% segregated. You likely wouldn't even be able to create one outside of China.

Makes me wonder how they're going to do the Tam-Tara Hard dungeon... or any of the Black Shroud dungeons, now that I think about it.

They're going to replace the sprites, actually.

Probably replace or re-texture or whatever it is. WoW has a good example of it. Look up pictures of "Lord Marrowgar" and then look for "Chinese Lord Marrowgar".

I am wondering how are they changing the Grid storyline...

Looks like the Nian, the Chinese mythological monster that is re-enacted in Chinese Lion Dance performances today (I used to be in a Chinese Lion Dance troupe). I wish I could get one for the upcoming Chinese New Year...
