btw the max level in this game is 342 because WuKong's original life was 342 years at the beginning in JTW..
You mean before he became immortal or after he got released from the 5 elements mountain?
@@kimetsunoacademia3528 He was on the brink of death for his name appeared as 342 years life time in the death book, but he managed to erase it, granting himself a layer of immortality. Despite this, he was imprisoned beneath the Five Elements Mountain for 500 years afterward.
that's interesting fact man thanks...
wait what I thought he at least had to be 500 years plus, cuz he was trapped under the mountain for 500 years

For the one who don't know YAOGUAIS in the game. "Yaoguai" (妖怪, yāoguài) is a Chinese term that refers to supernatural beings, monsters, or demons in Chinese folklore and mythology. These creatures are often depicted as malevolent spirits or animals that have acquired magical powers through cultivation or other means. They are sometimes considered to be transformed humans or animals that have gained sentience and supernatural abilities. The term "yaoguai" can also be used more broadly to describe any strange or fantastical creature in Chinese culture.
Yeah but u can only interpreted as “monster” that is true and simple 🧐
Sensei Ssetht told me you should call it yougurt.
Fallout 4 taught me that they're bears
yaoguai sounds like yokai
yaoguai(Mandarin) and yokai (Japanese) are same word
This game has an incredible amount of enemies and crafting. The story and music is engaging. It isn't trying to be Elden Ring or anything else. It's simply amazing Chinese mythology. And that is a good thing.
Relax bro,this is not a 10/10 game.
Yep. It's difficult growing up in "the west" without at least hearing a bit about Greek/Egyptian/Norse mythology.
You usually have to go out of your way to find out about those from other cultures.
Not found one yet that wasn't amazing, and I've only just scratched the surface. They'd all make a great novel/film/game in their own right.

If this is China getting into the western market I'm all for it , they have so many stories to tell. This game looks amazing.
It will be tough. in this case the developers all came from very very big corporations from the country and secretly crafted the story to be a passive protest against their political leaders whilst replicating true and tested gameplay. Im all for what the devs are making but a vast majority of the said country wouldn't care but to takeover anything and everything the world has. Not a conspiracy just facts. If the game wasn't going to be that big or if the government found out about its story beforehand I would doubt it would have even seen the light of day. Check out what theyve been doing to africa just a simple google search. Weaker countries get stomped on and us in bigger more priveleged countries never get to hear much about it. I agree the game does look amazing. hope they fix the fps drops and oversharpening. 🙂
Meanwhile Tencent, who has shares in most western gaming companies: Don't mind me...
I think they should do a historical game. Imjin wars would be perfect. China, Korea and Japan were involved. China had the Divine engine brigade which was a battalion of 8000 elite warriors that even the samurai feared and they had a sizeable impact on the war against the Japanese. Battle of Jiksan would be like a ghost of tsushima.
@@fuzzy-02 Tencent is garbage which is peasants harvester of CCP
They already did that with Genshin Impact, if I remember correctly a Chinese studio made it. This is just the first good and non-predatory game from China though.
1:27:27 the stop motion cutscene is actually an allegorical story:
+ The first layer is from the perspective of Lingji Bodhisattva. The nature of the monster is like this and cannot be changed. Through this allegorical story, he expresses his regret for the great disaster caused by his moment of compassion in the past.
+The second layer is an evaluation of the Yellow Wind Sage (big rat carrying lingji’s head). His nature is complex. He is both "the Great Sage of the Yellow Wind who saved the country of Shihali" and "the Yellow Wind King who wanted to eat Tang Sanzang and obstruct the person with the divine destiny".
+The third layer is in the entire framework of "Black Myth: Wukong". Once involved in cause and effect, it is difficult to get out. From the moment the fox was saved by the scholar, her fate was beyond her control.
1:50:17 if you stop attacking when the macaque has 50% hp remaining, he will simply bait you by begging for mercy
2:04:55 kang jin long, one of 28 constellations
4:15:26 literally everyone playing this game
4:28:38 don’t underestimate bajie, he has 36 heavenly transformations, while wukong has 72 earthly transformations. He also fights much better than wukong when it comes to underwater battles, like the time he fought wujing (who used to be a man-eating yaoguai, then later became sanzang’s disciple. Wukong the eldest brother, bajie the 2nd brother, wujing the 3rd brother, bai long ma the 4th brother)
4:28:59 I really don’t know why the devs made him so smol. But with his abilities, he can be taller to compensate his height
Bajie’s name means eight precepts: no killing; no stealing; no sexuality; no lying; no alcohols; no using cosmetics; no lying on beds which are too wide; no eating salty foods
People need to see this!
He was marshal of the celestial court, of course he must fight good underwater 😂😂😂
Why was it “beyond her control”?
I think the part about the fox is "suspicious"
The scholar was afraid and killed the fox just because of "suspiciousness". Because of "suspiciousness", Heaven was afraid of Wukong and send heaven soldiers to destroy him. Those in power do not allow forces that are stronger than them but not restricted by them to exist.
I believe it's to make BaJie cute and funny.
Because in the original text he's very very intimidating, and probably not up to todays taste.
The crazy part of this is most of the statues architectures are actually a replica of existing historical sites today. That's insane
Yea there is a lot of original assets. I was surprised too.
Yes the Game Science team went to various locations in China and digitialtized many historical sites and buddha statues, and they have a whole datebase of unused ones.
Dlc coming soon.
But Koreans claim that the designs were copied from their sites, Chinese is stealing their culture.
@@Paul19920811😂
What is shocking is that many scenes in the game actually exist in reality. These ancient places are full of legends about Wukong. You can visit these places in China.
I finished the game last night. This game evokes the same feeling that Elden Ring did, where every nook and cranny is filled with something really cool, like unique bosses. I am really blown away by just how many bosses are in this game. Here’s hoping we get a sequel!
How many hours
@@jimmunro4649 I am at the last chapter right now, i unlocked all previous hidden contents and spend about 55 hours so far ; however only unlocked about 70% steam achievement thing (tropy)

So far there are 2 finale . Good luck !!
I watched X play this on Kick but I gotta admit in terms of gameplay Asmon is actually better 😂 btw for ppl comparing this to Elden ring its not, wukong is much more than that.. once you study the depth and lore of this game you soon realize how amazing it is. Game of the year?
china goes hard with their games
its amazing chinese mythology paired with incredible lore and music
no way lil bro said asmon is good at a game?藍
who actually watches x.. are u ok?
its abit early to talk about game of the year but it has a chance

Bro always cook based comment
You’re not wukong though
I was about to say "nice comment", then I saw your profile picture. I apologize. Thanks, Sensei.
Ai generated aahh comment
The funny thing is what's in black myth wukong is not even 30% content of the book. There's tons material to do a sequel
In the second chapter, if you read the game text carefully, you will find that Rat is the good guy and Buddha is the bad guy. Because the people in that country no longer believed in Buddhism, the Buddha spread magical Buddha heads in the canyon to fill it with monsters. Let the bug harass the residents with the Buddha's head on its back. The rat boss helped the country and became the leader of the monsters in the valley. Rat was forced to succumb to the Buddha and became his disciple. Just in time for Sun Wukong to be dismembered, Rat obtained part of it and used it to fight against the Buddha, cutting off the Buddha's head and hiding in the wind and sand. If you look carefully, every chapter of this game has a dark story.
And the rats were actually ppl of that country, even the king and princes which is horrified. I just cant figure out if the Rat or the Buddha was the one who turned them into rats
Dark story? You mean black myth
@@Ty-v6v-c4rYes, you know what I mean. That’s the theme. A darker adaptation of the original JTTW story.
...centuries later the head found out and escorted to the @britishmuseum
@@mi0teddy Overall, the problem lies with the king, but the Buddhas are also very bad. At first, this country had a disaster of boiling seawater, and then the Buddha gave them a big drum to suppress this disaster. Therefore, Buddhism began to prevail in this country, but the king disliked the fact that the authority of the Buddhas exceeded his own, so he began to order the eradication of Buddhism and the destruction of Buddha statues.
Then the beetle came, and it happened to be the mount of Lingji Bodhisattva. Afterwards, our yellow mouse subdued the beetle, and the king, in gratitude to the yellow rat made it a saint and issued laws that favored mice (including rat and rat demons) - and then the curse of the Buddha came, turning the entire human population of the country into rats
Many foreigners who are not familiar with Chinese culture understand this game only in terms of gameplay, overlooking its underlying story. This cultural difference leads to varied evaluations of the game. For example, there is a scene where the protagonist, the Destiny Character, encounters a mural depicting Wukong paying respects to his master, Bodhi Patriarch. Many Chinese players feel a deep resonance and can't help but stop to admire it. In the cold-toned scene, the warm light represents Wukong's most beautiful moments. It’s only as he matures that he realizes Bodhi Patriarch is his true and only master, who named him, taught him how to be a person, and imparted his skills without seeking anything in return. Despite knowing Wukong's wild nature, Bodhi Patriarch never thought to control him with a golden hoop.
We know that Sun Wukong can transform into 72 different forms, yet no matter what he becomes, we can always recognize him as a monkey. When he dons a Taoist robe, his demeanor takes on an ethereal quality, reflecting his imitation of his master. This makes me wonder if Wukong is reminiscing about those carefree times spent with Bodhi Patriarch, where he felt loved and cared for. Wukong has no parents and no name; he was timid and afraid when he first met Bodhi Patriarch. Even when Wukong misbehaved during his learning, Bodhi Patriarch treated him with understanding, never scolding him. At most, he would lightly tap Wukong on the head. In Bodhi Patriarch's Lingtai Mountain, Wukong was never the eldest disciple but rather a mischievous younger brother, proudly showcasing his newly learned spells to his older brothers, who adored him. When Bodhi Patriarch was upset, the older brothers would secretly pull Wukong away, fearing he would be reprimanded.
Bodhi Patriarch watched as Wukong learned many things under his guidance, smiling with the pride of all fathers who hope for their children's growth. He understood that Wukong had a mission to fulfill and would have to face it alone. Although Bodhi Patriarch was reluctant to let Wukong go, he had to release him. Despite sternly instructing Wukong not to tell others that he was his master, Bodhi Patriarch always cared about him. When Wukong was surrounded by countless celestial soldiers and ultimately trapped under Five Finger Mountain by Buddha, Bodhi Patriarch did not blame him. Instead, he would change his appearance each year to celebrate Wukong's birthday, helping him groom his messy hair and watching over him, feeling heartache for his disciple. In Chinese mythology, one day in heaven equals a year on earth, so for Bodhi Patriarch, he could visit Wukong every day.
Later, when Wukong made a mistake and knocked over the ginseng fruit tree owned by Zhenyuanzi, he was given three days to revive it. Wukong searched everywhere among the gods he knew but found no solution. In desperation, he went to find Bodhi Patriarch, only to discover that he was not there. Wukong, who had not cried in five hundred years while trapped under the mountain, broke down at the thought of Bodhi Patriarch saying he would never see Wukong again. He curled up into a small ball, ultimately causing Bodhi Patriarch's heart to soften, and he helped his disciple out of trouble. Hearing his master's voice rejuvenated Wukong, as if he were reborn. Yes, even someone as powerful as Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, has his soft side. Only in front of Bodhi Patriarch can Wukong be a carefree and happy little monkey.
In the storyline involving the false Monkey King, Wukong says, "If my master were here, he would definitely recognize me." In Bodhi Patriarch's eyes, Wukong is merely a playful little monkey, a clever and lovable disciple, never the "bad monkey" others describe.
Thus, a single mural can convey these stories without any animated scenes, allowing us to grasp its significance. This exemplifies how cultural differences influence perception. In "Black Myth: Wukong," many similar stories unfold, and just the appearance of a character brings forth numerous narratives. This is why some people deeply appreciate the game, while those unfamiliar with Chinese culture may not enjoy it as much.
哇…我当时看了就是那种感觉，抖音这段时间热点都在怀念那个场景，还在调侃唐僧遭遇了第82难（网暴）😂
I am from the West but I have read Journey to the West. I saw that mural and it is still one of the coolest things the game has shown. It took me down memory lane of when Sun was just starting out which is kind of crazy good story telling but only if you know the context of the mural. I like that this game will get people to check out Journey to the West even if they don't end up sticking with it.
说的超棒兄弟！你的解释非常好。这个图真的会让每一个中国人深有触动。

For those who might not know this, here are some fun facts...
In fact, the OG mythology of Sun Wu Kong, who was thought to have 72 different skills of transformations/supernatural abilities, amongst other powers such as immortality was, in fact, the inspiration to the creation of Goku and DBZ....lol....and the so-called 'Master Splinter' was a Rat 'demon' which was one of a known character within the canonized tale surrounding Sun Wu Kong. In Ancient Chinese Mythology, any sentient (physical) being on earth that's neither a beast/animal nor human were to be classified as a demon; Most of the time, demons aka Yaoguais used to be a beast/animal and how they became a demon were mostly anomalies of nature; either because they had somehow crossed paths with some sort of supernatural power/source; very much like a typical story of Peter Parker or Bruce Banner but animal-style and subsequently, guided only by their animal instincts. grew stronger and more powerful over a long period of time OR they had been possessed by a powerful evil spirit.
While humans considered all demons to be evil and a threat, not all demons were evil. Bajie and Wu Kong themselves were two prime examples. Technically, in the beginning of the tale surrounding the Monkey God's life, everyone including Deities and Humans treated Wu Kong & Ba Jie as demons (Monkey and Swine Demons respectively) until they've had to prove themselves to be of good intention and heart through their actions to help others. I mean wtf man, looking back at this ancient myth, it's just amazing that we've either created stories or recount alleged events from such an early age of Humanity and over generations, they taught us life lessons and Morales. In this case, not to judge others by their looks and that our every act, when given ample time, is what defines and represents who we are.
(Oh and of course, Ba Jie wasn't exactly a beast to begin with; his tale was different; he was born a human first and hence, one of his weakness which was his lust for women, wasn't abnormal in case any of you start accusing the belief of the myth advocating in B3astiality or some sort)
(Edit: I mentioned 'Monkey God', as opposed to Monkey King, is because, even till today, many Chinese communities and temples around the world still pray and give offerings to the legendary figure.
Despite humanity's gradual departure from religion, in terms of teachings wise, the entire lore about him still remains very relevant to the upbringing of kids as he exemplifies so many values which we all should aspire towards in life; from building our mental fortitude in terms of determination, self-confidence, wit, adaptability, courage and of course, not forgetting humility which was arguably the hardest skill he's had to learn throughout his life journey from the moment he had his first encounter with Tathāgata.)
其实非人的生物称为妖和魔，妖怪可以通过修炼成为神仙，神仙是需要有功德和修为的。而万事万物，无论人还是妖都要通过德行和修为的修炼才能成为神仙。

Dustborn got ranked a 7 and same people gave Wukong a 8 lmfao they are completely irrelevenet at this point
Always some dope in the comments of everything that has to tie everything ever to regurgitation of a US political talking point.
I'm reaching the end of the game now and doing the secret ending, after doing basically everything I have about 45 hours and will have at least another 2-3 to beat the secret ending bosses. This game just kept surprising me and was way more in depth and longer than I was expecting. It definitely won't be for everyone, but I think this game is at least a 9.5/10 for me personally. It was exactly what I wanted and more. The studio really delivered.
totally agree with that
The maximum damage in this game is 108000, which corresponds to the instantaneous maximum speed of Wukong's clouds. The maximum attack power of the weapons in this game is 135, which corresponds to the weight of Wukong's weapon 13500. At the same time, 13500 and 108000 These two numbers have very special meanings in Buddhist books.
It is worth noting that the attack power of the weapon of the boss Erlang in the game is also 135. Erlang is also a very important figure in the Chinese mythology system. Most Chinese people believe that he is as powerful as Wukong and also has a legendary life experience.
Wrong, the highest attack weapon is 140 attack, with a critical hit rate of 9%, called the Divine Dragon Stick
Yeah we don't care.
@qozia1370 You use a dedicated reply to prove that you don’t care? lmao.
The highest damage attack in the game was only like 15800 hp done by a man who has already completed a one shot run for all the main bosses in the game, you can’t get anywhere near 108000 damage

In the journey to the West to obtain scriptures, there's something quite strange. The closer you get to the Buddha, the more powerful the YAOGUAIS become, and the more civilians are harmed or killed. Demons with connections, despite their heinous crimes, are often rescued by their backers, while those without any backing are killed for even minor offenses. There are many stories within this, far surpassing the game itself.
This is the core of Wukong's spirit, "resistance"
Also, zhu bajie is a secret agent from the Taoist faction, sent to white ant the journey, which is why he was always against wukong and even got him kicked out.
Wukong gradually gets less violent in the journey, killing everything he meets initially, slowly learning to solve everything with guile and connections as he gets punished by his master.
Also, everyone is connected even from the start. Wukong just goes out and kills them, leading to punishment. Even pigsy is extremely connected, and one of the most powerful, but he only meets him at the start.
Wukong is an allegory for the human mind - violent and direct at the start, full of guile and pulling connections when old. Also, it's a bit of Buddhist propaganda, the human mind has unlimited potential like wukong, and cannot be tamed by taoism, only by Buddhism.
Imperial court is very incompetent and corrupted. Buddhist pantheon is also incompetent and let their subordinate spirits do evil - criticism of the government and officials, how evil prospers due to lack of governmental oversight and corruption.

Unfortunately he’s going to get the bad ending because he rushed everything to achieve power, just like WuKong did in his journey. the crowing at the end of the game is telling you that you are not free because that crown is what kept Sun WuKong under control. So he’s eternally destined to reincarnate but not be free. While the good ending where he opens his eyes and it flashes to a white screen, is WuKong defying Buddha’s control and creating his own path. “The one who could not be controlled” there is a 40+ minut video explaining everything, I watched all the Tv series/ movies too, even the Chinese ones from 1986. The game begins after The Journey to the west from the movies.
Apart from the frame rate drops, the reason why you have trouble dodging sometimes is not because you are animation locked, it's because you don't watch your stamina and are regularly at zero.
China needs to make Wuxia games next, like Condor Hero and others. There’s definitely a market for it.
Too many of those kind of games, especially from Taiwan in the 2000s. Xianxia is terrible, and is always a cultivation level grind.

Calling out thievery is not racism.
It’s just fact.
In Chinese language we describe someone who sneaks around stealing stuff as “rats” (鼠輩）.
If you go to China’s Shanxi province, there’s a place called “Tien Long Shan”(天龍山）。
There are huge statues, almost all of them headless.
So where are all the heads?
I wonder…🤔
Interesting fact: The real Buddha head of Lingji is in the British Museum.

can't we just enjoy the game without dragging politics in? seriously.
@@milky3ay566 Games, reality, it's always good for people to know the facts.
@@jacksun6897 get your own fact straight, Lingji is an original character created in Journey to the West, there is not such Buddha in reality
😂 comment section got people arguing about Yokai and Yaoguai🤣 Yokai （妖怪 ）is the Japanese pronunciation of Yaoguai ( 妖怪 ）, which the Japanese adopted from the ancient China. And it is the exact same Chinese characters that the Japanese are using ( as you see above). And the same goes for Goku ( 悟空 ) too, as that’s the Japanese pronunciation of Wukong (悟空 ）, and the exact same Chinese characters.
in the case of Yokai and Yaoguai, both came from exactly the same branch of mythology
@@DavidsuperZhong yes! Ancient China mythology. Hence why Yokai(妖怪)- the Japanese pronunciation of the term is so close to Yaoguai（妖怪) the Chinese pronunciation of the term. Because the Japanese learned from the Chinese in ancient times, and so they adopted it.
Currently in qct 4. This game is truly goty
i feel like goty is a bit of a stretch
Ready to weep for the chapter 4 ending animation bro.
Make sure to use the needle 🪡 in chapter 4 final boss second phase. To make it an easier fight.

In Chapter 2, the rats (including the king and princes) were all human. It's a country that used to worship the Buddha. After they changed their mind, it came the beetle. At the end of the chapter, it says that it could be a mount of Bodhisattva (likely Lingji the headless singer) just like the famous lion and elephant. This indicates that their suffers were because of the Buddha's punishment.
In the secret scene you helped the Rat sage defeat the beetle and saved the country. Then the country started worshiping the rat sage. Guess what? They turned into RATs after that. I could only imagine that it's the punishment from the Buddha (maybe Lingji). The missing 3rd prince is the guy you find in the prison in Chapter 3.
In the ending cutscene of Chapter 2, that brutal story is another reflection of this. Lingji thinks that the man was doing the right thing to kill the fox and questions the player what do we think. I say Wukong says the F word and revenges the fox in Chapter 3
He does say that. The fox was cut af too. Also, if you read the portrait of non void says the man who did it was guilty af inside for decades all the way to his death when you finally kill him. Killing is killing.
That wind tamer saved my ars in many boss fights haha. If no one knew it instant stuns the yellow wind king and breaks the wind effects and knocks the loong dragon out of the air. Future reference.

how 😮
already used title
You better not. If You'd better not, if you know the original, if you know Goku and the game, you know they don't worship Buddha, they're against power, they're after freedom, it's a satirical novel
@@kksk-kksk For the sake of culture, plz call it its Chinese name Wukong.
So the guy who saved the fox basically did the thing where your girlfriend dreams of you cheating on her and then stabs you in real life for it.
No, it means that the dream meets something that happens in the future, and then abandons it to avoid it
@@KeezerBulgin-zg8dl And it turns out the fox was good... he could have lived happily ever after but he followed the rules. That's why the narrator asks Wukong, because he knows Wukong doesn't follow the rules.

Translating a few Chinese characters into English can be like releasing a compressed file
Same with Arabic, English is such a primitive language.
@@hamzanocapnot sure how english is primitive when it has one of the biggest vocabularies of all existing languages
@@BlueBand3 If something new appears, Chinese can combine several related words into a new word, and you can basically understand the meaning at a glance, and the English combination becomes a new word that needs to be learned, so the vocabulary is becoming more and more bloated, which is not conducive to development
@@谢玉龙-n3x Interesting points, but how does adding new words to a vocabulary create bloating? If you can choose different words for the same meaning it means you can be more specific in how you want to come across a certain way.
Also, when something new appears and you combine the words does that mean you need you learn them individually first? If that's the case it's a lot less intuitive, maybe it's more efficient, but that doesn't mean it's the 'better' language or as you said 'primitive'

Black myth wukong and Elden ring are the best games in the last 5 years
what about concord, I heard it's made for the modern gaming audience
I love this man simply because he play games not talking to ppl while he playing thats my big reason to watch him
Attacking Thunder enemies with a Thunder weapon is a big brain move, Asmon likes to crank up the difficulty.
I was thinking the same thing but also thought they would cancel each other out. Does it work ?
tbf you have to spend more resources to use your old staff again
I am actually lowkey excited to see Asmon's reaction for future bosses. This game is so fucking good with their unique boss designs and attacks, it's gonna be quite the show to see Asmon go up against them.
If anyone wants a cheese build I figured out for early-mid game... Speccing into smash style heavy charged attack and combined with cloud step that lets you unveiled strike with a heavy attack makes for a disgusting combo. This build will trivialize a lot of bosses, especially early on.
Also farming for twenty hours got me mad OP
Yup I just like being able to charge on the run, free dmg to start most fights
3 tigers actually are in one family, the first vanguard is a father(the one u met at past), second blood vanguard and mad tiger was his sons
If you got time, read through the journal. Each tales of the enemies are a complete story often accompanied by poem. Make for excellent reading time.
This is what god of war 2018 should have been
1:13:52 is "Six Character Great Bright Mantra": pronouces as "Om Mani Padme Hum". In Chinese is “唵嘛呢叭咪吽”. A very important mantra of Buddhism provided by Guanyin Pusa ( 观音菩萨， Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva). Means "Cintamani(Mani Jewel) on the Lotus ", just indicates human being's internal wisdom just like the Mani Jewel, clean and valuable, even though the lotus's root is based on the mud.
i wish youtube didn't keep cutting the audio out everytime streamer is about to cuss
there is a mistake, yaoguai is not a good term in view of yaoguais, so normally one yaoguai won't call another yaoguai as yaoguai just to humiliate them. Wukong and Bajie call other yaoguai as yaoguai, because by being enlisted in the "to the west" project they don't feel like they are yaoguai anymore because they were promoted by even bigger yaoguais at heaven, and we call such greater yaoguais as Xian.
I don't think Bajie and Wukong were yaoguai. Bajie was a member of the celestial court who got banished while Wukong is just a monkey born from stone.
Edit: Only Bajie isn't a Yaoguai. Wukong is sometimes considered as Yaoguai.
So it's an opposite of n-word, like an u-word.
Bajie isn't a yaoguai. He's just a banished admiral of the celestial court. Even when he turned into a pig he still wasn't a yaoguai.
@@benginaldclocker2891 he is, because he is supposed to live as a normal human after that not immortal anymore, but by mistake he entered into a pig lift, a walking-talking pig in Chinese mythology is definitely yaoguai
@@romanniki5033 no, he was banished from heaven, but a mishap caused him to be born as a pig. the novels never considered him as a yaoguai, not even in other works.
The game is absolute cinema. The story, gameplay, cinematics, and most importantly, the fun are all there
Whether it is Buddha or gods, they did not help people get rid of suffering. In the end, they even had to rely on monsters to help humans. What an ironic story.
probably someone has already mentioned this, that frame drop is shader compilation.
-
it's a oversight of UE engine, the shader compilation process from the first run of the game, missed all the shaders for particle effects.
so basically every first time you see a new type of particle, the game has to compile the shader for it, and you will get a frame drop.
also intel cpus somehow are very bad at shader compilation (something to do with big/small cores), so the frame drop would be really hard.
-
the good news is, once you've seen one type of a particle, you won't get frame drop from that same type of particle again.
the bad news is, some bosses use more than one type of particle, especially in different phase, so you may get multiple frame drop during one boss fight.
and sadly there's nothing you can do to prevent it.
Games like this, lies of p , elden ring and other fromsoft games, stellar blade and baldurs gate 3 are a few of the game where you feel like they belong to the early mid 2000’s. Were games were just fun no cash grab and laziness, no drama and just cater to the simple needs of players. Fun entertaining gameplay. Long but keeps on wanting to be played more. Nothing locked behind money just keep playing and you’ll get everything.
Support games like this cause they are a rare commodity that the meta is trying to bring down.
Bro am I the only one hyped for some DLC for this game? I’m only in Chapter 4 and I can’t get enough of this game. I’m just chillin, checking every nook and cranny and taking my time to look at all the beautiful details they put into this.
NO DLC.
There probably will be more, as there are still many unresolved plot points in the game. With the background of Journey to the West, the potential for future development is immense-there’s the Dragon Palace, the Underworld, the Heavenly Palace, Yang Jian, Nezha... Just thinking about it excites me. But the production takes time, so we can only wait patiently.
There are 2 DLC in the works for Black Myth Wukong according to Gamescience
wukong is how i imagine it'd be wandering around asmons house. crazy creatures in random corners
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I watch all Your videos ''Asmon'' but this game I'm NOT going to because after many years of not playing I'm finally going to play THISSS.
The last game I played was a French production from 2013: Remember Me.
I'm working until the end of October after which I take 3 months off. It's time to go back to my childhood days for one moment. Time to finally make use of this RTX 4090, 128GB of RAM and AMD Ryzen 9 7950X 16-Core Processor😎
Some alternative universe where the company caved into dei extortion they make the monkey a chick and have her save her girlfriend from a evil pig antagonist, you meat other random animals really has nothing to do with mythology
I love how you mistyped Meet as Meat, nevertheless this is a great comment
😂😂😂@@Khann_2102
lmao 😂
Honestly I couldn’t get it done with thrust stance and I couldn’t cope without Cloud Step and unveiling strike.
Early on that charged Unveiling Strike doing 700-1200 damage and, if you time it well, unmissable was my saving grace.
It gave me a great dodge or rescue when needed, charges fast, low cost and works against most bosses.
Didn’t realise how good it was at first but I’d recommend levelling it to at least 90% of the way to get the charged strike ability.
The fire circle I used mainly on boss fights I needed that health burst and endurance but after enough gourd upgrades it was just not worth losing immobilise.
Fun to see a different play style though. I took longer to defeat enemies for sure
1:25:48 lol I am Chinese and even I didn’t notice the severed head represented the stolen artifact by UK. How did Asmon become aware of this
Because some people like to harp on and on about their ever-expanding list of historical grievances.
@@brendanl7675 to be fair I actually appreciate Asmon’s observation. Many in China do hold on to historic grievances you mentioned. this is a legitimate group of audience the devs are trying to engage.
@@brendanl7675 Nothing wrong with that, and nothing wrong thinking we should also have the future in sight (I take this is what you seem to imply)
@@xxjman18 Exactly. Once you start talking about spoils of war, and you hold _everyone_ to that same standard, you end up digging up a heck of a lot of inconvenient truths. Better to rule a line over what was done and hold a higher standard for future.
I just finished the LONG boss fight in chapter 4 and it is tougher than chapter 3. Took me about 15 tries using the spell lock spell. It was even tougher than the blacksmith boss fight. Love this game.

Sun Wukong was born from a stone crevice, making him a silicon-based lifeform, and thus, a member of a minority group. As a stone monkey, he is genderless and can be seen as a representative of the LGBT community. Additionally, as a monk, he is also a vegetarian. He created chaos in the underworld to prevent his fellow monkeys from being oppressed, showing that he is a noble animal rights activist. After being trapped under the Five Elements Mountain for 500 years, suffering greatly, he gained a deep understanding of freedom, making him a liberal. He respectfully addresses women as "Goddess of Mercy," showing his support for women's rights, making him a feminist. His journey to extinguish the flames of Fire Mountain showcases him as a great environmental warrior. The storyline in the Kingdom of Women, involving male pregnancy and the allowance of abortion, further reflects a progressive stance on reproductive rights. Such a figure, embodying multiple attributes like minority status, LGBT identity, vegetarianism, animal rights activism, feminism, environmentalism, and liberalism, and with his 72 transformations piling on more and more buffs, how could anyone say he is politically incorrect?
Chinese Splinter is kinda wild.

Everytime i go to a new area, i see its impossible they have anything over here in this random spot. Then 3hrs later im done. Absolutely huge game.

I've been waiting all weekend for this
this game is so crazy because your attacks do so little damage... it really becomes about skill.. it also gives you all those power up abilities which are basically cheats that do a ton of damage.. if you use all the power ups in a row you can get bossess down pretty low but then they still get you.. a good strategy is to fight them with no power up abilities for a while on the first half and learn their attack patterns and actually fight them. i like to just practice dodging for a while and then learning where i can get a few hits in and when i can do a full power monkey jab.. then dodge their hits then take a few swings and keep that pattern going until theyre like a third down then use all the power up abilities then they should be almost dead and then you just have to dodge more and you already know how to do that because you mastered it while learning how to fight them on the first half and then finish them off with a big powerful heavy attack.. its pretty satisfying..
Wow.
Can we all not appreciate the myths and legends from all around the world as they are?
They're all from a particular frame of reference, all with different flavours, and that's fine. In fact, that's not just fine, that's what's so interesting about them all in the first place.
More please Asia, I need more!
This is exactly what the CCP wants you to feel, the propaganda is effective.
Read Journey to the west
Yao means spirit/goblin(it can be animal or plants), Guai means monster. So Yaogua is a general term refers to both creatures.
ngl I really enjoyed this game too! The graphics, boss fights and the stories are just insanely good
Mind Core is one of the most valuable item is this game. Take it to the dog next to the furnace in this chapter and he will give you something really precious in return.
Who is waiting for next Black Myth Wukong gampleay video or it is just me
im waiting too. he said he will come back later in the week. I cant wait to see him fighting some bosses.
Journey to the West is a part of the childhood of most Vietnamese children. In fact, when I was young, children like me were immersed in the world of Tang Monk and his disciples, however, this is a great book so with the understanding of a child, I couldn't understand everything. Luckily, BMW gave me a reason to rediscover, I was really surprised that Taoism and Buddhism are two completely different branches of belief that I had always thought were the same.

I find it funny that without watching the video and just judging by the title and thumbnail, the idea that what is making Black Myth Wukong 'crazy' is the existence of female characters.
