It doesn't matter how many times I watch that opening, it's still amazing every time. And I'm sure you already know by now. But just in case. No, this is not Journey to the West. This is it's own story. It'd be like me writing a book about resurrecting King Arthur. It's not the legend of Kind Arthur, but it's built on that foundation and directly related to it.
Quick summary of Journey To The West (before the story of Black Myth Wukong) The original Wukong whom you played as in the intro was first born from a special stone, found sanctuary amongst other fellow monkeys and became the monkey king. With this however became fearful of death and thus learn to utilize chi, martial arts, and the 72 transformations from a Taoist monk (the monk also gave him the name Wukong) helping prolonging his life span to immortality and used his knowledge to teach it to his monkey brethren. Later he went to a water palace deep within the sea where a water dragon rests getting a special armor and phoenix cap as well the iconic staff that can manipulate into any size. Eventually the celestial court feared him and decided to grant him the role amongst their ranks such as guarding the divine peach tree (which he ate all of them granting him stacked immortality along with the the pills of immortality) and horse rancher which in reality was used as a way to keep him busy thus Wukong decided to fight against the celestial court with Wukong beating everybody including Erland Shen as shown in the intro only to eventually be sealed by the Buddha itself in a mountain sealed for 500 years. Afterwards he was freed and tasked to be Sanzang’s bodyguard, a monk who was tasked to journey to the west in India to retrieve the scriptures of enlightenment with the the condition that the golden headband on Wukong’s forehead was put upon him by the celestial court to keep him in check. Throughout the chapters he meets a few followers whom helped Sanzang and Wukong’s quest that being the white dragon horse, Zhu Bajie (human turned pig) and Sha Wujing (human turned blue demon)
Yeah that’s why I can’t even touch this game. It’s fundamentally flawed. I won’t even acknowledge its existence. WU Kong can’t be killed no matter what. Yet they killed him. So disrespectful to the lore
@@PeterparkerSlaps if you were paying attention to the opening cutscene of the game Wukong wasn’t killed, his 6 relics split and scattered all across the region to where you the destined one explore the areas to retrieve the relics to restore Wukong back to its original form
@@FengTheSlayer yeah he’s basically killed and reincarnates. But that’s still dead 💀 which is weird because I’d imagine the writers actually know about his invincibility
@@PeterparkerSlaps Cause making a game based on an OP character wouldn’t be fun or challenging if you can’t die. Besides he was defeated by Earlang Shen (one of the celestial beings of the divine generals, in other words he can keep up with Wukong) due to being caught off guard by binding golden head band. Also, the character you play as isn’t the reincarnation of the original, you played as a monkey that looks similar to him with the story being about finding the pieces of the 6 relics; which has pieces of Wukong’s spirit in each of them to be put back together
Man, you are obviously a technical type. There are a lot of people fight the wolf first and then the big head, or just skip it and come back later. You are fighting him directly!
Seeing a pro struggle against the first boss makes me a lot less insecure now 😂 he’s legit only hard cos you got no upgrades, in NG+ you can slap the sh/t out of him no problems
1:47 I mean he did fight over 200 gods multiple of them at once and 28 of them were fucking constellation gods and to put into perspective. Constellation gods are generally ones similar to the god of death in GoW meaning some of these gods include concepts and are generally 7th dimensional beings along with hyperversal scaling
@@NotPolarEXno so I come from Chinese roots and what I remember from journey from the west wukong was very evil and going on mass killing sprees and when he met his master( I read the whole book but it was 10 years ago) he put that headband sort of thing on him so every time wukong did bad things his master would chant something( I don’t remember) the headband would tighten and hurt wukong. So back to the story. Wukong was about to kill erlan and his master sensed it so he chanted the thing so that’s why wukong head hurt in the intro. And the headband was giving to wukong a master but not really master just the leader of the group when they went west to control wukongs behavior or the heavens which made the band tightened it since erlan is from the celestial court but eh who knows those are the 2 reasons I think.
Absolutely! The only way the Court can bring Wukong to his knees is by blackmail (killing his monkey brethren). The Journey was also created to reign him in and use him at the same time to do the Court's dirty work
this story takes place after the journey to the west , iin inntro wukong ggot killed by erlang shen and became stone monkey and you are about to collect all his relics to revive wukong.
I’ve been obsessed with Wukong since I was 18 and I’m 28 now. I can’t believe this game is actually real and that now everybody is learning about Dasheng
It takes more than that army, the Four Kings and Erlang and still you cannot defeat Sun Wukong, it takes the top Buddha to trap Wukong! Game Science did a excellent job extending the story!
Just found your video. You are not kidding when you call yourself a pro! I am going to subscribe to your channel and follow your Wukong game play videos.
Man, if my experience with the game was this smooth I'd like it a whole lot more. Imagine first playthrough with a whole lot of stuttering and freezes. Oh, and the occasional crash. Now imagine beating the whole game like that, and killing every boss. I hate this game. It was such a frustrating experience.
The reason why erlang shen said that no one can best him except himself is cuz that its said that erlang shen has 73 transformations and is one of the few that can go agaisnt wukong himself
I needed 8 tries to beat the big head guy, after that all bosses in act 1 to 3 didn’t need more than 4 tries to get them, some of them 1 try them (for example final boss act 1). I only player Sekiro, never other soul like games. Guess I’m a real gamer
The reason why you don’t have a health bar at the intro fight is because you are playing as THE Sun Wukong which he is immortal at that point.
Sun Wukong made himself immortal 1000 times over, lol
@@ZenBigCat7x dk where you got 1000 times over
@ryujin3430 he ate a full garden of immortal peaches, he just has seven types of immortality
@@THEEperfectbeing he actually has over 1000 times immortality in JTTW
@Jaeswingk-bi7tt like I said he has seven different types of immortality
Bro this game is peak, I am really hyped to watch all of your Videos
Bro honestly I've beaten all of the chapter 1, if possible u gotta give it a try ngl the sh*t BANGS

That’s what I did, took 10-15 tries if I remember correctly, so far I’ve beaten many bosses first try😅
^^ yep. One of the toughest bosses along with chap 1 and 2 end bosses. But most bosses are 1-2 tries (when i played)
He’s not
He’s not
nah he is the typical elden pro that jump into tree sentinel and dont give up
Don't worry man, the soul will absorb after you meet a master to upgrade your gourd.
The Handsome Sun Wukong, The Great Sage Heaven's Equal, The Victorious Fighting Buddha.
Seeing a pro struggle against the first boss makes me a lot less insecure now 😂 he’s legit only hard cos you got no upgrades, in NG+ you can slap the sh/t out of him no problems
Also think of wukong’s headband as Broly’s necklace. It’ll hurt the wearer whenever they’re out of control.
Bro had 3 whole years to learn about the monkey king 😭
Zero comments I’ll fix that
The destined monkey is a somewhat descendant of wukong(or not,idk) who embarks on his own journey,and is the next Sun Wukong.
I thought it was Wukongs reincarnation
@@quincymiller2039 although Wukong never died,he is sealed away as a broken shell.
Elden ring and “pro” are two words I never thought i’d hear in the same sentence. I hope you’re enjoying wukong so far :)

Erlang Shen is the nephew of the Jade Emperor didn't beat sun wukong just captured him his Jingu Bang was placed on him for if he goes out of control
Wait so was that the reason it activated when he transformed?
Only Tripitaka could use it but here no clue why it activated
@darkschneider5269 not true there is exceptions like guanying and buddah himself
Yes but also those two are smart he is the only one stupid even to believe pretty much any bullshit they tell him

Bro I subscribed simply because your commentary is funny ass hell on some shit lol
The 6:26 reason why u don’t have a health bar in the beginning is because your immortal … but the other monkey u’ll be using is not
Absolutely! The only way the Court can bring Wukong to his knees is by blackmail (killing his monkey brethren). The Journey was also created to reign him in and use him at the same time to do the Court's dirty work
The protagonist doesn't speak but if he did, he would have said everything you did based on the lore
A God of Highschool enjoyer? You're a man of good taste
Pro Player got stomped
1 minute in and you made me laugh multiple times, subbed.
15:07 that meme was caught me offguard, brother you nuts
25:39 Wandering wight, the strongest mini boss in the black myth 😂 and 40:00 Guangzhi is the savior
The boss dialogue boutta have me crash out I swear😭
All that nervous talk, you know you'd been through a lot in Elden Ring.
this story takes place after the journey to the west , iin inntro wukong ggot killed by erlang shen and became stone monkey and you are about to collect all his relics to revive wukong.
Got to work a light attack combo. Then transition into a heavy attack immediately after

Wukong kinda sounds like old og vegeta in the cutscene
Hopefully you found all the secrets in wukong
Makes me understand how hard this game is hearing the commentary 😂
your dodging skill is top tiers!
respect to you for reading god of high school which the main character is sun wukong's reincarnation/clone
Finally someone that found Guangzhi (Fire-Wolf dude) been waiting
You couldn’t find guangzhi?
If you fight the secret bosses they give you better stuff in order to fight the other bosses later on btw
That's ErLang's dog(哮天犬, from the heavenly court, not hell hound😂
You're low-key a rising TH-camr like AfroSenju
that baackflipping chimp was peak👌
That thumbnail bro 🔥
Yessir the homie Steele actually gave it to me
@@NotPolarEX W, do you know the artist? They popped off
@@SamuraiGekko I can ask Steele if he'll send the artist
@@NotPolarEX Not needed but would appreciate it man 👍
The game has input reading when you reach the 2 final bosses
This game is far easier than elden ring so I didn't struggle but I definitely had a lot of fun
How are you enjoying it so far? As of now I am on the last chapter trying to do all bosses for the Platnium
Which one is more difficult i wonder Black myth or Elden ring
This game.... is just SO fkg good
Man, if my experience with the game was this smooth I'd like it a whole lot more. Imagine first playthrough with a whole lot of stuttering and freezes. Oh, and the occasional crash.

Well I believe the word of the day is peak!
Das word of the month ngl cuz this the only game I'm touching rn
@@NotPolarEX I look forward to the content we get from it, fam!
4:52 double damage LMAO
14:40 Idk if it's been changed... But both this and Stellar Blade were banned from GOTY. Let's hope that's not true or has been reversed.
Bro how did you beat the boss that quick he fucked me up 30 times but the game still probably the best game out rn but damn
I might go hohoho have my ass off😂
Is that a persona 3 ost at the back ahahahha
The reason why erlang shen said that no one can best him except himself is cuz that its said that erlang shen has 73 transformations and is one of the few that can go agaisnt wukong himself
Title seem oddly familiar
Omg this is going to be good
YESSIR IM TOO EXCITED
Your his reincarnation lol also this take place after journey to the west
Don't think you were supposed to beat wandering wight yet
I needed 8 tries to beat the big head guy, after that all bosses in act 1 to 3 didn’t need more than 4 tries to get them, some of them 1 try them (for example final boss act 1). I only player Sekiro, never other soul like games.

Afro Senju????? This you?
game of the century
man, where have you been? Keep up loading vedios please
Biggest delusion ever
wait for some real boss :D
Monke flip gaming
Monke gaming is best gaming
Defeating big head and not skipping him yeah you are a pro
My dumb a** defeated him but never collected his soul required to unlock his transformation
i’ve never played a souls game, never played elden ring and i beat him on my 3rd try. i didn’t even inow he was skippable😂
God speed, I'll be playing this when I get my gamepass back in september. Sooner or later it will be there
I'll see u there then chief🫡
It's not on xbox or gamepass bud
@chriscofer6780 xbox has been delayed last I heard. About a month ago it said it was going to be a day 1 pass but it can all change of course
The circlet was put on you long ago, you can’t take it off, you lost because they cheated.
Ahhh yes😩 PLAY IT
Y u moaning with it bro👀
