I believe the point he is trying to make is that Chinese forces are depicted as enemy combatants to players, which they are. Adversary, rival, opponent, opposing force; all these terms are valid synonyms for how China is portrayed for the most part. Clearly, though, there's a reasoning to this which is revealed in the game's plot.

Your second point is very valid, there are plenty of works of fiction that have caused offense.
