That's how you design a perfect final boss fight. This one is not extremely hard, at least easier than the last hidden boss Erlang. But the pressure he deliver is just at another level. All these moves are not dealing physical but mental damage. Even you defeat him you feel like a child just passed his teachers test.
The devs could've make the fight insufferable like making the Monkey King does a one shot hit or summons dozens of clones to f players over. I'm so glad they didn't do that.
"Perfect boss" ?? What are you talking about, this guy was insanely hard... I spent more time on it than 3 other hardest bosses combined. Not sure why, but in my game this one was by FAR the hardest. Too many animations that are hard to doge. I play on PS5 + Projector so that might be the reason, but this boss was the reason game dropped HARD for me, and ending (without secret ending) is barebones.
Whoever wrote that final boss can steal your health potion during a fight is a genius. Imagine if Sephiroth used Cloud's elixir and they had to restart the entire fight....
I think that's a reaction a lot of people have because he doesn't just permanent take it away. Takes 1 swig (which from the looks of it actually uses up a use), heals a bit and gives it back. Makes people think "Oh that's pretty funny." instead of "Are you kidding me??" had he just permanently removed it.
I also love how he’ll take your staff and then give it back to you or if you try to do a heavy slam to catch you and start knocking you around like hulk did the Loki
@@FXRainThe AI read your input and does that on the 4-5 sip. The best way to counter is just spam dodge on once you see him do it or hear the sound to dodge completely. Once that’s done you’re free to sips.
This is also a trope in Wuxia novel: sharing a cup of wine with your opponent before a duel to signify you both will not hold hostility with each other no matter who will win. Edit: this is the highest gesture of respect a martial artist can show in Wuxia.
@@Khann_2102 Yes, in the entire boss battle there are few cases like this one where he can just kill you, basically teasing you with his ability. But this is supposed to be the final test from Monkey King himself to see if you're truly the destined one.
This episode fits perfectly with the persona of the Monkey King, who, in Journey to the West, wreaks havoc in the Garden of Peaches, where he freezes the nymphs for the sole purpose of picking peaches
even thought been the great saga, Wukong is still a monkey, so he's very playful and like to mess around, it's like one of his many pranks. characteristicly correct.
Wukong takes the gourd: This thing of yours look good. Let me have a taste Wukong after drinking: This shit takes like horse piss. Take your shit back. This can be accurate because as he was in heaven, he had some of the most palatable food and drinks existed, so he has a very hard side for food.
That might not be it exactly since if you upgrade your brew you can get, for instance, Monkey Brew (and something better, I haven't seen it yet) which Wukong did like very much. Maybe he was jokingly surprised that you would just straight up chug alcohol during combat :D Especially since he doesn't stop you first 4 or 5 times and only after that he finally decides to take a sip himself IIRC
@@lx051225 Well he was testing if the Desitined One are truly his successor If it's other, he would definitely drink the whole thing and even pee into it like one of novel chapter XD
I thought it was cool when, after he battered you around and knocked you down so hard you lost your staff, the boss was 'nice' enough to kick your staff back to you and beckons to get back up. Immobilizing you and taking a drink from your gourd, however, is something else. 🤣
The fact that no other game boss in history (or developer) has ever thought of this before is perplexing to say the least. Sure we have bosses that will heal themselves, bosses that will escape, bosses that have a second phase/form/stage; But never a boss that’ll literally steal your own sustainability
player wukong: after stopping opponent, furious hitting until stamina bar gone. Chad Wukong: after stopping opponent steal the gourd take a sip and gives it back.. NGL, we are lucky that when he gave it back to us he was not fully healed and the gourd is not empty.....
In fact, Wukong is teaching the destiny how to fight in memory, in order to prepare for the next DLC.Because the most important East China Sea Dragon Palace and Tiangong in Journey to the West did not appear.
Destined One:(Panic drinking) Get Immobilized Sun Wukong: "Gimme that!! Let's see if your wine is some good stuff." Took a sip. Sun Wukong: "Now that some fine wine you got there, you're gonna need it."
fun fact about the entire fight: normally if you’re in water you can’t use your fire circle, but in this fight not only can you use it, if you’re in wukong’s circle you can also gain focus. he’s actually going easy on the destined one, it’s in all intentions and purposes just a test to see if you can take over the mantle
An interesting piece of knowledge: In “Journey to the West,” Sun Wukong learns the immobilization spell. He uses this spell to freeze many extremely beautiful fairies in place, and while they are immobilized, he quietly eats all the peaches that the fairies were guarding.
I love in all those time you were frozen he could've just swing a few time and you will drop like flies but he decided to humiliates you instead, and keep in mind he can just throw your gourd away for the rest of the game
haha, in the simplified Chinese version. He drink your wine, but spit most of the wine out, then toss it back. But in all your reactions with other language setting, there is no sound of the spitting of the wine. That’s why he don’t heal as much as you. “Not good wine”, I guess that what he really think
This game is the reason why I bought a Chinese drinking gourd (Black Myth Wukong’s replica) Probably not ideal and probably hard to wash if you put soda or alcoholic drinks in it, but cool to have nonetheless
If you already read JTTW this is his iconic character moment. because he was too powerful + nature of monky. every opponant who fough him found out he just toy with them one way or another. and dav want you to know this is how you feel when you fight with real sun wukong look like.
We've been getting annoyed when the boss in other games heals themselves to max hp Meanwhile, Sun Wukong: "I'll take a sip on that gourd, thank you. You like that?"
大 圣 爷 I hope westerners now finally get the chance to learn about the real wukong, this is the perfect way to introduce him, cuz he's always about that swag😂
You know a game has done an incredible job at story telling when the ride on the boat to the final boss gives you a tension and worries you only get when you are about to take an exam
Wukong is my childhood memory. This action is very good. It perfectly shows Wukong's naughty nature. In the journey to the west, he did the same thing to the seven fairies in order to steal peaches.😂
Swiping people's alcohol is such a Wukong thing to do. If anyone tells him, "no, this area is off limits," or "this item is forbidden," this curious monkey will find a way to break in and have a taste. It's just how he is; irreverent, free-spirited, larger than life, a rebel to his core.
The fact there Million or even Billion of Game and none have the idea about Boss stole your healing and use it on themselves Probably because it isn't fair and they probably have their own healing method Such as drinking from their own stuff or second Phase But this Not only disrespect but also what Wukong probably would do
He even heals little enough that people are cool with it. Like "it restores my entire health bar but just recovers several hits to him, which sound fair" type of cool. People will rage if he restore as much as we did, since it just mean "heal? Restart the fight dude!"
I honestly can't think of any boss in these types of games that do this. I mean there's bosses that'll hit or start a combo right when you try to heal, there's bosses that'll disable your healing for a bit. But I have never seen a boss that will YOINK your damned potion! That shit is revolutionary I swear.
Whoever wrote this, gets the real spirit of the character in the original novel. A monkey though learned and named Budha, still shows his nature from time to time.
Interesting! I didn't know he could do that. He never actually did this to me when I fought him. Through most of the fight used Ring of Fire to heal. But I did use the Gourd on the last phase a couple of times and he didn't stop me
Headphone Warning at 06:14 I thought I turned that clip down low enough, it seems I miscalculated 😂😂😂 sorry in advance if your ears got blasted 🙏
Monke
I love how you thoughtfully give a timestamp so that I can get my earwax cleared😂

I thought he was the third wukong
Fun fact about this you can actually doge the freeze if you use gourd then dodge right after
That's how you design a perfect final boss fight. This one is not extremely hard, at least easier than the last hidden boss Erlang. But the pressure he deliver is just at another level.

Whoever wrote that final boss can steal your health potion during a fight is a genius. Imagine if Sephiroth used Cloud's elixir and they had to restart the entire fight....
And it's very on-point for Wukong's character too, he's a grade-A mischievous trickster 😂
Potential option for harder difficulties in the next game perhaps.
Well Wukong is the biggest troll that ever trolled 🐵
that's also so authentic for that character. Wukong is famous for stealing food and wine.
Well! The thing is that it fit wukong’s characteristics, he does things like that 😂
That was one of the only times ever a game has screwed me over and my reaction was “Damn, that was cool.”
This and god of war ragnaroks one where thor kills you and revives you are the best ones ever made
real
same reaction as well.

Atleast he didn't empty the gourd and just healed a little as well.
actually wouldve loved if he wasted one use
He takes your capri sun wukong.
Oh you are lucky he didn't piss in it before give it back at ya. I know for sure Wukong with his full mind intact would do it
来给你一点😂
He is just curious about what you've been drinking all this time and wants to taste it.
I love how he gives it back after he takes a swig
At least he has some heart to not humiliate us further 😂
He also gives the staff back after disarming us. He just testing us bro. 😂
"Take it back you'll need it"
Because he's testing us
The disrespect 😂
Shit would have been diabolical if he kept it for himself😭
Nah, he just wants to see if your wine is good stuff or not.
@@ringring8938Also he's just testing us
That would have been bad manners from a Wuxia perspective.
No gourd challenge
No one will be able to defeat him except ONGBAK
This episode fits perfectly with the persona of the Monkey King, who, in Journey to the West, wreaks havoc in the Garden of Peaches, where he freezes the nymphs for the sole purpose of picking peaches
Yes all those beautiful peaches.
The dude's a freaking troll. lol
对啊，仙女被定住了，他去吃桃子，可能因为不是母猴子
Or bro just loves to troll
Weren't those peaches one of the reasons he has one of his many layers of immortality?
Player: im gonna heal
Wukong: OUR HEAL
Make sense cuz china communist party xD

@@hardonobong2190and you need to make sure he won't pee in your gourd before drinking it😂
@@AmazingLoop fact this whole fight he could casually do that and we couldn't do anything about it makes it even better 😂
This is in line with Wukong's character. He is very naughty and his weapons were also snatched from others.😂😂😂
To this day, Dragon King from East Sea still wishing to have the 金剛棒(Golden Staff) back XD
The only game where I felt awesome being humiliated.😂
This fight is the first moment that players getting disrespected but they are enjoyed it 🤣
Because this direspect is actually fun and kinda in character
Basically you’d do the same if you could)
Wukong takes the gourd: This thing of yours look good. Let me have a taste
Wukong after drinking: This shit takes like horse piss. Take your shit back.
This can be accurate because as he was in heaven, he had some of the most palatable food and drinks existed, so he has a very hard side for food.
LOL
Yeah I can see that he was disgusted with the wine 😂 look how he grunts and shakes his head. Definitely not worthy to his taste bud 🤣
That might not be it exactly since if you upgrade your brew you can get, for instance, Monkey Brew (and something better, I haven't seen it yet) which Wukong did like very much. Maybe he was jokingly surprised that you would just straight up chug alcohol during combat :D Especially since he doesn't stop you first 4 or 5 times and only after that he finally decides to take a sip himself IIRC
Now this is how you make a GAME OF THE YEAR
Lol, amazing setup by the Devs. What a character!
*Destined one stuck in time*
Wukong: I'm taking that shii
😭
😂😂
Wukong is infamous for just taking people's things. This was so perfect for him
The difference is that this time he actually returned it
@@lx051225
Well he was testing if the Desitined One are truly his successor
If it's other, he would definitely drink the whole thing and even pee into it like one of novel chapter XD
I like this part. Because although only the broken shell, Wukong is still Wukong
Wukong or not, a prankster is a prankster, and he damn well will get a swig of that while flexing at our flabbergasted arse 😂
Aura so great it transcends mind and body
the final fight is all about teaching, not killing. he shaked the bottle after he drank it to make sure you still have a bit left.
“Hold your beer”
Literally 😭
lol
"Our beer"🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳
It's too funny to see every player's shocked behaviour when it was taken away. No other game done it before🤣🤣🤣

Wukong really show everyone that he was just playing around while Training our character.
The fact that no other game boss in history (or developer) has ever thought of this before is perplexing to say the least.
Sure we have bosses that will heal themselves, bosses that will escape, bosses that have a second phase/form/stage;
But never a boss that’ll literally steal your own sustainability
Kingdom Hearts 3 secret boss could steal your elixirs, revives and weapon and this was 5 years ago
The technology was never there before. We had reach a point where gameplay and cutscenes are nearly the same now.
This what I called “Eeeeeeeeeemoooooootioooonaaal Daaaaaaaamage~!”
This cutscene is brilliant.
Wukong entire fight: "make sure you watch and learn kiddo~"
player wukong: after stopping opponent, furious hitting until stamina bar gone.
Chad Wukong: after stopping opponent steal the gourd take a sip and gives it back..
NGL, we are lucky that when he gave it back to us he was not fully healed and the gourd is not empty.....
Hes called wukong and not lukong because he always take the W
@@Notvisibletoanyone56 damn right!!
Least he didn’t destroy the gourd but tossed it back 😂😂😂
Shell or not, this is coming from a monkey who has the ball to spite at heaven several times to know the unwritten rule about drinking😂
In fact, Wukong is teaching the destiny how to fight in memory, in order to prepare for the next DLC.Because the most important East China Sea Dragon Palace and Tiangong in Journey to the West did not appear.
No DLC confirmed tho
@@sauce8148 oof. That was a few days too early
This.. and When he countered the charging pole stances.. I wheezed so hard. Oh and one time he cancelled our charging attack by throwing a peach..
that’s not even the peach, it’s just the core of that peach he chomped on lmaoooooo
Destined One:(Panic drinking)
Get Immobilized
Sun Wukong: "Gimme that!! Let's see if your wine is some good stuff."
Took a sip.
Sun Wukong: "Now that some fine wine you got there, you're gonna need it."
"What the hell is my children drinking back home?"
If you use Rising Stick Heavy Strike in this fight, you'll see another one
This is one of the greatest games of the year
Imagine a challenge mode where he just doesn't give the gourd back.
Even as a shell of the original Sun Wukong. It still keeps his sense of humor and his love for good booze.
fun fact about the entire fight: normally if you’re in water you can’t use your fire circle, but in this fight not only can you use it, if you’re in wukong’s circle you can also gain focus. he’s actually going easy on the destined one, it’s in all intentions and purposes just a test to see if you can take over the mantle
Nishiki, Jo Amon, Yozora and now Great sage. Anybody else I miss from the heal steal club across games?
You don't need to be too nervous to fight with Wukong. You can feel him and learn from him.
Hahaha, this is Chinese humor. And，it's really not surprising at all that the Monkey King would do something like this.

ew.
Wukong shaded the bottle before he drinks. How cool.
I really wished they made you lose a sip and heal him a bit more, but i know people would've been hella annoyed about it
You actually DO lose a sip. He did this to me when I had only 1 left and after he drank it, I had no more heals that fight XD.

This battle has a master - discipline vibe to it. Kinda cute tbh.
Imagine if you have the thing that poisons you whenever you drink and then he steals it and poisons himself 😂
Actually the game has soaks that poisons you.
Yes that is literally what I was referring to
I tried, it didnt work 😂 the description says poisons the "destined one" so that's probably why it didn't work
Yep. That's Wukong alright.
"You come into my house, dressing like me. And don't have the dignity to fight me like a monkey."
I wish more games had final bosses with little moments in the battle like this that gave the boss even more character.
broke 4th wall there
13:08 Next level disrespect right here.
Ok lesson learned, One extra sip in my gourd for the boss.
Love that he takes it like a parent taking away something from their child lol
