We don't need game, but a pioneer to slash and tear the fake mask of political right!
To the game itself, it had been immersing my soul! I could even dream of it without being misled to think the monsters(or Yao Mo Gui Guai?) exist for real! It controlled at a degree under the Analog Horror! I can use a hard stick to hit through the hardest rock of defense, defeating the bosses all the way with failures but without punishment!
It's a fine proganda of Chinese culture, a hard impact on those trying to mess up the Chinese society, believing that Chinese can make 3A game with full purpose, spreading cultural confidence!

Black Myth: Wukong was a letdown. It ran poorly with noticeable ghosting and low visual quality. Combat wasn't broken, but it felt boring-mostly light or heavy attacks with the occasional ability. The perfect dodge effect looked cool, but fights lacked variety and depth. The story didn't pull me in, and I found myself not caring about what was happening. Voice acting felt off. Despite the hype, it came off as unpolished and forgettable. I also found navigation frustrating at times-I often wasn't sure where to go or what to do next. Overall i didn't enjoy my time in that game and i wont be playing it again.

Great game about the monkey king.
It has a unique way of playing with more than 100 Bosses!
Great graphics, Great story, Great cinematic.
Alot of secrets and it has 2 different endings.
I really enjoy the action of fighting, you can have different weapons (Ruyi Jingu Bang - Staffs) many upgrades with awesome looking.
The game is kind of God of war but still different.. Worth getting the platinum Trophy π I would recommend to anyone like action games to give it a try and you wont get be disappointed and its so addictive, for me i cant switch to another game and waiting for the DLC to be release..

"Black Myth: Wukong" is a true gem in the world of gaming, not just a fantastic action game but also a beautiful story. The game transports us to an incredible world full of magic and mysticism, drawing heavily from Chinese mythology. The story it offers captivates from the very first moments, and the richness of detail and care in world-building make every location come alive.
The combat mechanics are one of the most significant strengths of this title. For those new to this type of game, "Black Myth: Wukong" offers a combat system that is not only accessible but also deeply satisfying. The boss fights are absolutely unique - each one presents a distinct challenge, full of dynamism and requiring strategy. Coupled with beautifully designed cinematography, these battles become true spectacles.
However, the game is not without its minor flaws. Some locations give the impression of being explorable, only to be blocked by invisible walls. This can be a bit frustrating, especially in a world that encourages discovery and exploration.
Despite this minor issue, the game deserves a 9.5 out of 10. The greatest strength of "Black Myth: Wukong" is its atmosphere. The locations are unique and beautifully designed, and details like buildings and statues related to Chinese mythology wonderfully capture the spirit of the culture. The sound design is equally impressive, and the meditation spots have become some of my favorite parts of the game. They allow players to focus on the surroundings and appreciate the work of the Chinese developers - and it's worth it.
In summary, "Black Myth: Wukong" It's a wonderful adventure that will stay with players for a long time.

Assuming the role as staff-wielding primate Destined One, 'Black Myth: Wukong' is a world worth wandering. I've seen it compared to FromSoftware titles but it's not nearly difficult enough to warrant as such, and it's all the better for it. It is first and foremost an adventure, more inviting than punishing. Where it does take a page from the Soulslikes; however, is in the manner of which so much content is below the surface and between the lines. You could blast through the game in just under a day as a boss rush, or you could spend the better part of a week hunting down every boss, collectible, and NPC. It's not so much a story being straightforward with you as it is a sprinkling of parables left to you to solve, which leads to as much active interpretation as it does passive enjoyment.
The game shines at its best and brightest in boss fights. There are 81 of them, all of which are simply sensational spectacles. Some are rehashed and repetitive, but the audio-visual view is delightful. Gyrating, sparkling dragons spiraling through the air. A corrupted buddha placing his palm on the plains leads to pulsing, splintering, and erupting.
I'm not particularly familiar with the source text 'Journey to the West,' but I'm inclined to learn based on the gorgeous reconstruction of the world. Each and every area is dripping with detail - vivacious forests and subdued snowfields, intricate temples and rugged rock faces. Demystifying what will come next makes for a pretty powerful lure.
In conclusion, 'Black Myth: Wukong' is a true triumph. It looks and plays as good as advertised, as if GameScience was bursting onto the scene and declaring: "Every other developer has got some stiff competition." I'm hearing them out, and you should be, too.
