If you can't understand the opening CG, you can think of it as:The Heavenly Court is like the CIA, and the monkey used to be a former mob boss. His mission to "go legit" involves delivering an important NPC to pick up some crucial items. After the job's done, they promise the monkey a spot in the system, but along the way, the monkey takes out quite a few of his old mob buddies. In the end, the monkey decides he doesn't want the spot anymore and just wants to retire to the mountains. The CIA, though, plans to kill him to tie up loose ends.
As a Chinese, the Monkey King's voice has been engraved in my dna.The Monkey King was given this voice in the TV series in 1986, and I was shocked that it could be restored in English dubbing.❤
this game is a goddamn masterpiece, expecially when you dig up the stories behind those monsters from the Journal in each chapter and connect them, such an intricate world and profound humanity.
For those in chat spamming "GOKU :PogU:" when the flying Nimbus came up Sun Goku was outright inspired and based off of the original Sun WuKong from "The Journey to The West"
It's not Japanese Goku, it's our Chinese Sun Wukong 😭😭 Journey to the West is a well-known Chinese novel published in the 16th century during the Ming dynasty and attributed to Wu Cheng'en....
Erlang is a famous demi-god in Chinese mythology, his mother was the Jade Emperor’s sister and his father was a human, Yang Tianyou. He has a mortal name called Yang Jian. With his talent, Erlang became powerful above most gods, however his mother was punished and sealed under a mountain for uniting with a lowly mortal. He is known for saving his mother by cleaving the entire mountain open with a great axe (the one we saw in the game) and fought off everyone who stood in his way. After that, he overcame countless tasks and challenges and earned a rightful place in Tianting (The Heaven Court), as the three-eye warrior and the guardian of heaven at his uncle, the Jade Emperor’s side. Also, he keeps a hound called Xiaotian (name means Howling at the Sky). His weapons: Tri-Point Blade (polearm), Mountain Cleaver (axe), Blue Edge (sword), Golden Slingshot (fires tracking projectiles), and more.
@@renzox8798Splitting the mountain to save his mother isn't only a story about Chen Xiang; Yang Jian also did it. Before he became a god, his mother was similarly trapped under a mountain.
And to provide more context to the fight between Erlangshen and WuKong, the reason why he was able to best WuKong in the lore/books is because he has one more transformation ability than WuKong. WuKong has 72 transformation abilities (72 变) vs. Erlangshen 73 变.
My favorite character is Yang Jian, and I wish the game could portray him as even more handsome, considering he’s always described as a very good-looking man in historical novels. But since he is a good guy in the game. there’s really nothing to complain about.
So for anyone who doesn't know, the crown on his head is a gift Avalokitesvara gave to Tang Seng (Wukong's Master in Journey to the West) so he can control/punish Wukong if he's being disobedient (mostly to stop him from killing yaoguai without permission). Iirc, the crown was removed when they sucessfully retrive the Scriptures, but now it returned.
But why. He achieved enlightenment and became the fighting buddha. We know why he’s back but who put the crown and sealed him again?! Can’t wait to play more!
Depends which narration u are folllowing, in certain narration he lives peacefully after his adventure with tang seng. In some narrations, he tricked/killed tangseng into letting him by pass the gold band then went back to fighting the heavens then after he fcked up once again he willingly went on journey after tangseng was reborn. Its a 500y folklore there are too many narrations now.
As a Chinese, I strongly recommend that foreign friends read the original Journey to the West and the 86th edition of China Central Television's Journey to the West TV series. This is very helpful in understanding the game's worldview.
Well the English dub is not bad at all!! As a Chinese who has been watching the full TV serie of Journey to the West 1986 when I was a little kid, I can definitely say that the Chinese dub sounds more like what Sun Wukong should sound. However the English dub sounds more bad ass indeed!
Grew up watching Journey to the West dubbed to Vietnamese so I don't really know what the Chinese version is like but I think the English voice actor got his arrogance voice down good enough.
i think the eng dub and sub are not bad at all. it retains almost most of the tonality and emotion. but like he said, i think we all should play in the language we want in order to understand what is a happening in the game. but i would recommend everyone to play it again with the original chinese audio, to fully experience the way the devs wants to convey.
Yeah of course, English dubs are always great because of the voice actors, who are mostly American, and America has the biggest and greatest acting industry ever especially because of Hollywood and the fact that we invented and revolutionized everything film and acting related.
@@ValCei this assumes that the Chinese voice over is the most optimal for conveying what the devs/author of this story intended, and that their intention of how they wanted him to sound like, portrays the most entertaining story for the audience. Which is just straight up wrong, other dubs and interpretations of the characters can always be better than the original, both for entertainment value to the story and for fitting the character/plot, which in most cases the English dub does way better than the "original" Japanese in Anime, especially in Anime with European settings and characters like Attack on Titan or Vinland Saga.
To be fair, Wukong has always been portraited as having a high-pitch, obnoxious voice, to highlight his monkey traits. In the OG Journey to the West, Sun Wukong is a deeply flawed character, not meant to be flattering. I think the English VA did an ok job. I don't think chat would've enjoyed the Chinese VA either. There are a lot of western conventions that are simply not there in Chinese literatures.
In Chinese mythology (mostly from Taoism, also exist other schools), the heaven is a palace (Tiangong, also the name for the Chinese Space Station) where an imperial court for the Gods exists (mirroring the one in the human world in ancient China), the highest ruler is the Jade Emperor and the others are the divine officials with their individual duties, like weaving clouds by the 7 daughters of the Jade Emperor and The Thunder God using hammers to make thunder, the Dragon Kings from the four oceans (they inhabited in the North China Sea, South China Sea, East China Sea and West China Sea) making rains by going to the heaven from the oceans following the heavenly decree. Most of the Gods are not born Gods but humans or mortals originally who only obtained deity status via experiencing tremedous amounts of hardships, self-cultivation, devotion and hardworkingness. For example, the Jade Emperor was originally a mortal human called Zhang Bai Ren (literally Zhang Enduring Hundreds...), who had experienced 1,750 great catastrophies, each of which lasted 129,600 years, eventually he endured all of those hardships and practised Taoist self-cultivation and became the highest ruler of the heaven. Chinese Buddhism also had a system of Gods, who were integrated harmoniously into the ones from Taoism. In the integrated system, the Buddha is actually more powerful than the Jade Emperor, as Buddha is emptiness and emptiness is Buddha, it's a figure transcending existence and non-existence. In the beginning of the Journey To The West, Sun Wukong (the monkey king) wrecked a havoc to the heaven, leaving the Jade Emperor hiding in the corner asking his men to plead help from Buddha. Buddha then subsued Sun Wukong with his palm.
The Jade Emperor is the supreme deity in traditional Chinese beliefs, and also the origin of the emperor's name "Tianzi", the son of heaven. In the original work, Sun Wukong did not enter the Lingxiao Palace, but only slightly alarmed the Jade Emperor. So, the Jade Emperor issued an order, ordering the Tathagata to come and suppress. The supreme deity of Taoism is the Ancestor of the Three Pure Ones, while the supreme deity of Buddhism is the Tathagata. However, there is a secular belief or folk belief in Chinese society, in which the Jade Emperor is the supreme deity of this belief system. In this mythological system, the gods and cultural elements of Buddhism and Taoism are absorbed. Jade Emperor, Erlang God, Empress Mazu of Fujian, Chenghuang Temple, etc. are secular beliefs. And Journey to the West is written based on folk beliefs. Many people are not familiar with Chinese folk beliefs and mistakenly believe that they are part of Taoism, but in reality they are not - although the two do have a certain degree of connection. In this regard, let alone people from other countries, even Chinese people, there are also many people who cannot distinguish the relationship and differences between folk beliefs and Taoism.
As for whether this game plagiarizes Japanese Dragon Ball, you can find out where the author of Dragon Ball, Toriyama Akira, comes from. Some people are brain-damaged and say that they plagiarized Dragon Ball.
The chat complaining about the English VA & not in sync. This is a Chinese game base on Chinese mythology. Play the game in Chinese with English subs (its original format).

@tayo17923 Obviously because he isn't playing the game in its original format??? It's like watching a foreign movie with English dub it will never be as good as the original.
one of the most popular story in china have 72 transformation this monkey king no body can beat him except his crown on his head he must obey to his master
Nahhh chat is hating on the EN VA but i lowkey kinda like it, hes supposed to sound like that and I feel like they kinda did a pretty good job in capturing who wukong is as a person. In other chinese films he also sounds like this but just in... chinese.
As a native speaker, I would say EN did a good job, but of course it’s translated after all, so some of the words and stuff gotta be changed and the “feeling” is a bit different, but overall it’s very great

Sun Wukong's 72 Transformations include abilities such as Penetrating the Underworld, Commanding Spirits, Carrying Mountains, Controlling Water, Borrowing Wind, Creating Fog, Praying for Clear Skies, Summoning Rain, Sitting on Fire, Entering Water, Covering the Sun, Riding the Wind, Breathing Flames, Swallowing Swords, Containing a World within a Bottle, Divine Speed, Walking on Water, Multiplication, Invisibility, Reattaching a Severed Head, Immobilizing Others, Slaying Demons, Summoning Deities, Chasing Souls, Summoning Clouds, Grabbing the Moon, Teleportation, Disassembling the Body, Storing Objects in a Staff, Stopping a Flow, Dispelling Calamities, Relieving Disasters, Transforming with a Finger, Shedding the Corpse, Shifting Scenery, Summoning Beasts, Riding on Clouds, Gathering Beasts, Commanding Birds, and Super Strength. The 72 Transformations is a mystical ability mastered by Sun Wukong, a central character in the Chinese classical novel Journey to the West. This technique allows Sun Wukong to transform into various forms, including humans, animals, plants, and even inanimate objects. The transformations are not limited to changes in appearance but also extend to alterations in abilities, enabling Sun Wukong to adapt to different environments and situations. The characteristics of the 72 Transformations include: Diversity of Transformations: Sun Wukong can use the 72 Transformations to change himself or others into any desired form, whether it be a human or a non-human entity. Wide Range of Transformations: He can transform into something long or short, large or small, male or female, old or young, and even into an invisible state. Powerful Transformative Abilities: Through the 72 Transformations, Sun Wukong can adapt to various environments, whether as a fish swimming in water, a bird flying in the sky, or any object within the heavens and earth. Sun Wukong's 72 Transformations are not only reflected in his ability to change into various forms but also in his use of these transformations to solve problems and face challenges. For instance, during his battle with Er Lang Shen, Sun Wukong transformed into a sparrow, a cormorant, a fish, a house, and even into Er Lang Shen himself to evade and confuse his opponent. The 72 Transformations represent not just changes in appearance, but also an expression of his capabilities and adaptability, making Sun Wukong an uncontainable hero in Journey to the West.
It's an old rumor. The 72 magical powers only appeared in Qinng Dynasty novels. In the original novel, Sun Wukong only learned 72 transformations, and he could transform into 72 things to avoid three disasters. Sun Wukong's other abilities come from the great immortal skills taught to him by Patriarch Bodhi（大品天仙诀）.
I think it is necessary to point out the most important but most easily overlooked core of Journey to the West, which is the satire on power and the struggle against fate. This is written very clearly in the book.
This is not the case in the original work. Wukong is a small country that is forcibly ruled by the government using both soft and hard tactics. Just like Rome ruled Israel. Goku initially calls himself the Monkey King, and the government plans to lure him into becoming a lower-level government official (Animal Control Officer) and try to subdue his power to the government. Finally, Wukong realized that he was being perfunctory by the government and left the government. As a result, they were suppressed by force from the government. Later, Wukong was asked by the government to escort a senior official to complete the mission. Because the senior official made many unreasonable demands, Wukong once again resisted. As a result, Wukong was once again deceived by the government and put on an exquisite "crown". It turned out that this crown was a magic trap to control him. As a result, Wukong finally surrendered to the government, helped the government complete its mission, and was named a real official (Dou Zhan Sheng Buddha). The content of the game is contrary to the meaning of the original work. The game means that Wukong has not yet settled down after completing his government mission; in the original work, Wukong becoming a Buddha means that his mind has completely assimilated with the government.
Yup true. Game Science's 1st big AAA single player global game and it's sold 10 millions in 3 days exceeding Elder Ring, Cyberpunk 2077, Hogwarts Legacy, Baldur Gate 3, Red Dead Redemption 2 is AMAZING ❤👍💪
People saying VA sounds bad/goofy and want deep voice for sun wukong doesn't make any sense.. he's supposed to be a playful and wild monkey. You can see a lot of monkey king characters in games and shows and they are given a bit high pitched voice
Thank you xQc for the quick upload, really appreciate your effort. But I must point out to those who in the comment section who is complaining about the out of sync Eng VA, I think that is not with the game but maybe, my humble opinion, that it is due to recording (imagine the hardware taxation on running the game and recording), not the game itself? I just got here from another live session, just saying...
Holy shit this opening intro scene reminds me of the old god of war intro where you are climbing the titans who are climbing mount olympus and you have to fight poseidon and zeus and stuff
My partner is Chinese and seeing her get hyped from this intro and saying the Chinese names of the deities and the crown that sealed wukong with so much happiness like she was reliving a piece of her childhood was unreal. She was a bit disappointed the game deviated from the original story of journey to the west but it was nice anyways to know that a Chinese game company designed the game in a way that wasn't compromised by the west's brainwashed narratives. When I first came to China she showed me journey to the west and king fu hustle with her friends. It was a special memory and I love wukong for it, if this game was made by anyone else it would have been an assassin's creed situation
The family of the wukong actor in the most popular tv version, always played the chinese opera wukong role. This is the chinese opera stage voice of wukong.
Guys, for ppl who don't understand the context: the first scene you have played is the real wukong. (The one in novel "journey to the west" and he finally accomplish the task with his peers and became one of the Buddha) the background of this game is happening after that, wukong back to his mountain and for some reason, the world (the God court and Buddha world, as well as the human world) was controlled by the demon and most of gods and Buddha were demonized (you will see a lot of boss are demonized Buddha and god). The real wukong realized that and tried to figure out the reason and you see the first scene. And looks like he failed and dead. Then, the main character you are playing after is not wukong, it's a similar kind of intelligent monkey to the real wukong, and he's trying to figure out the real reason of this demonized world (same as real wukong). And you will fight 81 bosses in this new journey and at the end find out what's going on. Even me don't know what the real ending of this story is.
@@ffd8413when he was born he didn't have name.all of the monkeys in the mountain following him because he has beat the most of monster in the mountain .so the monkeys called him“monkey king”.a few years later，he formally became a pupil to a master named Bodhi Patriarch.his master gave him name“Sun wukong” which means that all things are change and disappear impermanently.（my English is bad，I don't know if you can understand what I'm saying😢）
This game is adapted from the 16th century Chinese magic novel Journey to the West. This novel is well known in the People's Republic of China, Japan, South Korea, North Korea, Vietnam, Republic of China and other regions. Today, I am glad to see that the birthplace of this novel made a game about this novel. I have burst into tears 🥹
Others may have already explained this, but that axe Erlang used is the one in his own origin story where he used to chop apart the mountain that buried his (celestial) mother. (His mother received such punishment because she abandoned her celestial status & started family with a mortal.)
Fun fact: Wu Kong’s voice in the new adaptation is a shout-out to the 1986 TV series "Journey to the West." The same actor who voiced Wu Kong back then also did the Chinese voice for Donald Duck in the cartoons.

High expectations from what lil bro? @@jakealoidrag7670 u never hear other game from the house dev 😂 u alr have high expectations from a mere PV ? 😂 People are just hard to please
This is it .. I don't give a damn if its Repetitive ... its a FUN Game about Chinese Myth The Monkey King , with NO PROPAGANDA bullshit ... I already loving the game so much
Some intro, the Court means the Imperial Heavnly Court, kind of a goverment that tried to tie WoKong to their service, he finished the Journey to the West, and the Court still want him to do their bidding since his power is too strong to be left along. The guy with three eyes saved his mother with the axe he used by splitting over an mountain, and the dog is known to cause solar eclipse by swallowing the moon. But man I am telling you there is so much story behind this existing one, similar to Greek mythology, if you already know the back story the game is so much better.
In fact, the oldest myths of human beings in the world all have similarities. They all mention the flood at the same time. The Chinese goddess created a stone to repair the leaking sky. This stone became the Monkey King
its really good! most of the people complaining have no idea who monkey king is or what is the story behind all of this! I've spent the last 5 years in China and I knew about monkey king way before this game was even announced! this is exactly how he is supposed to sound. He's basically a childish and goofy character. some idiots are comparing him to Kratos lol
Is it weird that I got a God of War vibe from this instead of Dark Souls like most people? The giant monster in the back, the fighting choreography, the epic music. It really feels like a GOW game. Not to mention that this game is about a mythology too
Those five giants are the guardian deities in Buddhism, known as the "Four Heavenly Kings(四大金剛)," along with the largest one, which is likely "Acala(不動明王)," also known as the Immovable Wisdom King.
Just wanna let u guys know that, if u don’t defeated the boss when he left few HP , u will get a hidden plot！（some bosses were Wukong’s friends in the novel, so they will have hidden plots when u do so！ ）How incredible ！！❤
i didn't know anything about this game prior, but to me the english voice sounds really good and totally fits the image of the monkey king, so chat is a bunch of Silly Billys
I personally love how little this game explains itself. If you aren’t familiar with the source material and just take it in for what it is, it’s such a cool and unique experience. I miss that feeling from games, being dropped into some fantastical world and blindly learning/playing your way through it. This game does that in spades.
I really wish more people could understand the underlying philosophy through Chinese. It contains so many thought-provoking reflections. As someone who grew up watching Goku cartoons, I can even empathise with Goku. But the fact is the English translation and dubbing has been excellent. But there are still some differences from the actual default Chinese allegory. Also, does anyone actually know who Erlang Shen's axe belongs to (which is probably another story)?😂😂😂
The name of the monkey is Wu Kong 悟空，悟means realize, understand 空 means empty, Sun Wu Kong is a traditional famous literature work figure created in China in the dynasty Ming, the writer called Wu Cheng en and we Chinese call them Si Da Ming Zhu （Four famous literature works）with other three works: Hong lou meng红楼梦（this work was created by Cao Xue Qin in dynasty Qing which is the last dynasty of China ）、San guo yan yi三国演义、（which was created in the dynasty Ming）shui hu zhuan水浒传 （Also was created in the dynasty Ming）and the Japanese Dragon ball whose protagonist also imitate the work Xi you ji（西游记）actually the original resource is Sun wu Kong from the chinese work.
small lore recap here, Wukong ultimately lost to Erlang here because of the golden circlet/restraining headband that reappeared on his head. It was originally placed onto him by buddha to help keep him in check on the journey to the west where if he acted out or misbehaved the priest guy he was protecting could chant an incantation causing the headband to tighten causing wukong extreme pain. He ultimately did complete his duty and finished the journey so this all took place after that, he was granted enlightenment and buddhahood and the restraining headband removed. Strange how it materialized on his head now almost as if Buddha himself cast down divine intervention which allowed Erlang to strike him down.
People saying the VA is out of sync. It's actually xQcs livestream/video that's offsync. Look at 12:41, xQc's voice and his facecam is delayed. If it was the game that's offsync, chat would be complaining, but they don't. It's just the lip sync that's weird since the original is in Chinese. But who tf cares about lip syncing in a game.
The monk Tangzang and his diverse mob of disciples journey to the holy land of America to obtain the woke scriptures and bring true diversity and equity to the east.
Oh,yeah er= secend lang = son shen= god. and he is called "The True God of secend son Who Shows Miracles" 。There is a water conservancy project in China called "Dujiangyan", which is almost the same era as the pyramids. It is still in operation. I don't know much about water conservancy projects, but it is said to be a miracle project. It is said that Erlang Shen and his father was the builder. There is still a temple dedicated to him there.

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?

It's not Japanese Goku, it's our Chinese Sun Wukong 😭😭 Journey to the West is a well-known Chinese novel published in the 16th century during the Ming dynasty and attributed to Wu Cheng'en....
Erlang is a famous demi-god in Chinese mythology, his mother was the Jade Emperor’s sister and his father was a human, Yang Tianyou. He has a mortal name called Yang Jian.
With his talent, Erlang became powerful above most gods, however his mother was punished and sealed under a mountain for uniting with a lowly mortal. He is known for saving his mother by cleaving the entire mountain open with a great axe (the one we saw in the game) and fought off everyone who stood in his way.
After that, he overcame countless tasks and challenges and earned a rightful place in Tianting (The Heaven Court), as the three-eye warrior and the guardian of heaven at his uncle, the Jade Emperor’s side.
Also, he keeps a hound called Xiaotian (name means Howling at the Sky).
His weapons: Tri-Point Blade (polearm), Mountain Cleaver (axe), Blue Edge (sword), Golden Slingshot (fires tracking projectiles), and more.
@@renzox8798 The story of splitting the mountain happened twice, once by Yang Jian and the other by agarwood.
These are two independent stories.
@@renzox8798Splitting the mountain to save his mother isn't only a story about Chen Xiang; Yang Jian also did it. Before he became a god, his mother was similarly trapped under a mountain.
Erlang Shen is also known as the heavenly three-eyed general.
Wait, thats erlang you fight?
And to provide more context to the fight between Erlangshen and WuKong, the reason why he was able to best WuKong in the lore/books is because he has one more transformation ability than WuKong.
WuKong has 72 transformation abilities (72 变) vs. Erlangshen 73 变.

My favorite character is Yang Jian, and I wish the game could portray him as even more handsome, considering he’s always described as a very good-looking man in historical novels. But since he is a good guy in the game. there’s really nothing to complain about.

So for anyone who doesn't know, the crown on his head is a gift Avalokitesvara gave to Tang Seng (Wukong's Master in Journey to the West) so he can control/punish Wukong if he's being disobedient (mostly to stop him from killing yaoguai without permission). Iirc, the crown was removed when they sucessfully retrive the Scriptures, but now it returned.
Who asked Lil bro 😂
But why. He achieved enlightenment and became the fighting buddha. We know why he’s back but who put the crown and sealed him again?! Can’t wait to play more!
@@ChristlsGodwho asked you to speak? BONK
Depends which narration u are folllowing, in certain narration he lives peacefully after his adventure with tang seng. In some narrations, he tricked/killed tangseng into letting him by pass the gold band then went back to fighting the heavens then after he fcked up once again he willingly went on journey after tangseng was reborn. Its a 500y folklore there are too many narrations now.

As a Chinese, I strongly recommend that foreign friends read the original Journey to the West and the 86th edition of China Central Television's Journey to the West TV series. This is very helpful in understanding the game's worldview.
Well the English dub is not bad at all!! As a Chinese who has been watching the full TV serie of Journey to the West 1986 when I was a little kid, I can definitely say that the Chinese dub sounds more like what Sun Wukong should sound. However the English dub sounds more bad ass indeed!
I'm not a huge fan of the english dub myself, in my opinion both the dialogue and the voice acting is far superior in Chinese
Grew up watching Journey to the West dubbed to Vietnamese so I don't really know what the Chinese version is like but I think the English voice actor got his arrogance voice down good enough.
i think the eng dub and sub are not bad at all.
it retains almost most of the tonality and emotion.
but like he said, i think we all should play in the language we want in order to understand what is a happening in the game.
but i would recommend everyone to play it again with the original chinese audio, to fully experience the way the devs wants to convey.
Yeah of course, English dubs are always great because of the voice actors, who are mostly American, and America has the biggest and greatest acting industry ever especially because of Hollywood and the fact that we invented and revolutionized everything film and acting related.
@@ValCei this assumes that the Chinese voice over is the most optimal for conveying what the devs/author of this story intended, and that their intention of how they wanted him to sound like, portrays the most entertaining story for the audience. Which is just straight up wrong, other dubs and interpretations of the characters can always be better than the original, both for entertainment value to the story and for fitting the character/plot, which in most cases the English dub does way better than the "original" Japanese in Anime, especially in Anime with European settings and characters like Attack on Titan or Vinland Saga.
To be fair, Wukong has always been portraited as having a high-pitch, obnoxious voice, to highlight his monkey traits. In the OG Journey to the West, Sun Wukong is a deeply flawed character, not meant to be flattering. I think the English VA did an ok job. I don't think chat would've enjoyed the Chinese VA either. There are a lot of western conventions that are simply not there in Chinese literatures.
ok job is not enough for the protagonist is it
@@daami7100 its enough
@daami7100 after the opening he barely talks
Yeah, it's like Goku's japanese voice. Ain't no one taking that seriously.
Yes it was even often complaint by his advisory. That he is an annoying and arrogant monkey that mocks his opponent too often.
In Chinese mythology (mostly from Taoism, also exist other schools), the heaven is a palace (Tiangong, also the name for the Chinese Space Station) where an imperial court for the Gods exists (mirroring the one in the human world in ancient China), the highest ruler is the Jade Emperor and the others are the divine officials with their individual duties, like weaving clouds by the 7 daughters of the Jade Emperor and The Thunder God using hammers to make thunder, the Dragon Kings from the four oceans (they inhabited in the North China Sea, South China Sea, East China Sea and West China Sea) making rains by going to the heaven from the oceans following the heavenly decree. Most of the Gods are not born Gods but humans or mortals originally who only obtained deity status via experiencing tremedous amounts of hardships, self-cultivation, devotion and hardworkingness. For example, the Jade Emperor was originally a mortal human called Zhang Bai Ren (literally Zhang Enduring Hundreds...), who had experienced 1,750 great catastrophies, each of which lasted 129,600 years, eventually he endured all of those hardships and practised Taoist self-cultivation and became the highest ruler of the heaven. Chinese Buddhism also had a system of Gods, who were integrated harmoniously into the ones from Taoism. In the integrated system, the Buddha is actually more powerful than the Jade Emperor, as Buddha is emptiness and emptiness is Buddha, it's a figure transcending existence and non-existence. In the beginning of the Journey To The West, Sun Wukong (the monkey king) wrecked a havoc to the heaven, leaving the Jade Emperor hiding in the corner asking his men to plead help from Buddha. Buddha then subsued Sun Wukong with his palm.
原著里，孙悟空根本没有走到凌霄宝殿，如来佛祖不是请的，是让他来就得来的，孙悟空不是玉帝的对手，玉帝想杀他，易如反掌
@@AAAAAGe Wait is this true, I thought in the original. He beat the Jade Emperor.
@@ToaaCentralNo, it was easy for the Jade Emperor to kill Sun Wukong
The Jade Emperor is the supreme deity in traditional Chinese beliefs, and also the origin of the emperor's name "Tianzi", the son of heaven.
In the original work, Sun Wukong did not enter the Lingxiao Palace, but only slightly alarmed the Jade Emperor.
So, the Jade Emperor issued an order, ordering the Tathagata to come and suppress.
The supreme deity of Taoism is the Ancestor of the Three Pure Ones, while the supreme deity of Buddhism is the Tathagata.
However, there is a secular belief or folk belief in Chinese society, in which the Jade Emperor is the supreme deity of this belief system. In this mythological system, the gods and cultural elements of Buddhism and Taoism are absorbed. Jade Emperor, Erlang God, Empress Mazu of Fujian, Chenghuang Temple, etc. are secular beliefs.
And Journey to the West is written based on folk beliefs.
Many people are not familiar with Chinese folk beliefs and mistakenly believe that they are part of Taoism, but in reality they are not - although the two do have a certain degree of connection.
In this regard, let alone people from other countries, even Chinese people, there are also many people who cannot distinguish the relationship and differences between folk beliefs and Taoism.

Sun Wukong's 72 Transformations include abilities such as Penetrating the Underworld, Commanding Spirits, Carrying Mountains, Controlling Water, Borrowing Wind, Creating Fog, Praying for Clear Skies, Summoning Rain, Sitting on Fire, Entering Water, Covering the Sun, Riding the Wind, Breathing Flames, Swallowing Swords, Containing a World within a Bottle, Divine Speed, Walking on Water, Multiplication, Invisibility, Reattaching a Severed Head, Immobilizing Others, Slaying Demons, Summoning Deities, Chasing Souls, Summoning Clouds, Grabbing the Moon, Teleportation, Disassembling the Body, Storing Objects in a Staff, Stopping a Flow, Dispelling Calamities, Relieving Disasters, Transforming with a Finger, Shedding the Corpse, Shifting Scenery, Summoning Beasts, Riding on Clouds, Gathering Beasts, Commanding Birds, and Super Strength.
The 72 Transformations is a mystical ability mastered by Sun Wukong, a central character in the Chinese classical novel Journey to the West. This technique allows Sun Wukong to transform into various forms, including humans, animals, plants, and even inanimate objects. The transformations are not limited to changes in appearance but also extend to alterations in abilities, enabling Sun Wukong to adapt to different environments and situations. The characteristics of the 72 Transformations include:
Diversity of Transformations: Sun Wukong can use the 72 Transformations to change himself or others into any desired form, whether it be a human or a non-human entity.
Wide Range of Transformations: He can transform into something long or short, large or small, male or female, old or young, and even into an invisible state.
Powerful Transformative Abilities: Through the 72 Transformations, Sun Wukong can adapt to various environments, whether as a fish swimming in water, a bird flying in the sky, or any object within the heavens and earth.
Sun Wukong's 72 Transformations are not only reflected in his ability to change into various forms but also in his use of these transformations to solve problems and face challenges. For instance, during his battle with Er Lang Shen, Sun Wukong transformed into a sparrow, a cormorant, a fish, a house, and even into Er Lang Shen himself to evade and confuse his opponent. The 72 Transformations represent not just changes in appearance, but also an expression of his capabilities and adaptability, making Sun Wukong an uncontainable hero in Journey to the West.
准确来讲，72变的意思是72种神通，也就是72种不同的能力，他并不单单只是身体外形的变化。
@@oubunn 看看第一段写的什么
这是杜撰的，清朝的野杂书
👍👍👍
It's an old rumor. The 72 magical powers only appeared in Qinng Dynasty novels. In the original novel, Sun Wukong only learned 72 transformations, and he could transform into 72 things to avoid three disasters. Sun Wukong's other abilities come from the great immortal skills taught to him by Patriarch Bodhi（大品天仙诀）.
I think it is necessary to point out the most important but most easily overlooked core of Journey to the West, which is the satire on power and the struggle against fate. This is written very clearly in the book.
This is not the case in the original work. Wukong is a small country that is forcibly ruled by the government using both soft and hard tactics. Just like Rome ruled Israel. Goku initially calls himself the Monkey King, and the government plans to lure him into becoming a lower-level government official (Animal Control Officer) and try to subdue his power to the government. Finally, Wukong realized that he was being perfunctory by the government and left the government. As a result, they were suppressed by force from the government. Later, Wukong was asked by the government to escort a senior official to complete the mission. Because the senior official made many unreasonable demands, Wukong once again resisted. As a result, Wukong was once again deceived by the government and put on an exquisite "crown". It turned out that this crown was a magic trap to control him. As a result, Wukong finally surrendered to the government, helped the government complete its mission, and was named a real official (Dou Zhan Sheng Buddha). The content of the game is contrary to the meaning of the original work. The game means that Wukong has not yet settled down after completing his government mission; in the original work, Wukong becoming a Buddha means that his mind has completely assimilated with the government.

Guys, for ppl who don't understand the context: the first scene you have played is the real wukong. (The one in novel "journey to the west" and he finally accomplish the task with his peers and became one of the Buddha) the background of this game is happening after that, wukong back to his mountain and for some reason, the world (the God court and Buddha world, as well as the human world) was controlled by the demon and most of gods and Buddha were demonized (you will see a lot of boss are demonized Buddha and god). The real wukong realized that and tried to figure out the reason and you see the first scene. And looks like he failed and dead.
Then, the main character you are playing after is not wukong, it's a similar kind of intelligent monkey to the real wukong, and he's trying to figure out the real reason of this demonized world (same as real wukong). And you will fight 81 bosses in this new journey and at the end find out what's going on. Even me don't know what the real ending of this story is.

(转载自别人)这里普及一下，游戏的大背景是，因为某些原因，天庭和佛门大部分一二把手都消失或魔化了，妖族趁虚而入，把六界给占领了，开篇cg里面你见到的二郎神杨戬是金翅大鹏假扮的，巨灵神是老二六齿白象，老大狮子头负责遥控四大天王。这也是为什么二郎神会佛门紧箍咒，然后胸前甲有一怒目金刚像的原因。过场动画有一幕是破损的孔雀大明王雕像，说明西天佛界陷落，包括亢金龙元神受损，昴日星君堕落魔化，观音禅院妖邪丛生，都是如此。而猴哥的话不出意外应该是为数不多知道真相的人，所以整个妖界都要杀他，最后引出整个游戏的故事线。祝游戏愉快

I personally love how little this game explains itself. If you aren’t familiar with the source material and just take it in for what it is, it’s such a cool and unique experience. I miss that feeling from games, being dropped into some fantastical world and blindly learning/playing your way through it. This game does that in spades.
I really wish more people could understand the underlying philosophy through Chinese. It contains so many thought-provoking reflections. As someone who grew up watching Goku cartoons, I can even empathise with Goku. But the fact is the English translation and dubbing has been excellent. But there are still some differences from the actual default Chinese allegory. Also, does anyone actually know who Erlang Shen's axe belongs to (which is probably another story)?😂😂😂
就是二郎神自己的，当初二郎神母亲瑶姬也就是玉帝的妹妹下凡成亲被玉帝发现后压在桃山，二郎神从玉鼎真人学艺出师后劈山救母；顺便说一下，二郎神有个妹妹叫三圣母，成年后也下凡成亲了被二郎神压在了华山，然后他外甥沉香在悟空学艺之后也是劈山救母；玉帝的外甥是二郎神，二郎神的外甥是沉香；真是笑死我了
People don’t realize “Sun Goku” is literally the Japanese equivalent of the Chinese name Sun Wukong.
China is the original one
And that son goku was inspired by the Chinese classic sun wukong
The name of the monkey is Wu Kong 悟空，悟means realize, understand 空 means empty, Sun Wu Kong is a traditional famous literature work figure created in China in the dynasty Ming, the writer called Wu Cheng en and we Chinese call them Si Da Ming Zhu （Four famous literature works）with other three works: Hong lou meng红楼梦（this work was created by Cao Xue Qin in dynasty Qing which is the last dynasty of China ）、San guo yan yi三国演义、（which was created in the dynasty Ming）shui hu zhuan水浒传 （Also was created in the dynasty Ming）and the Japanese Dragon ball whose protagonist also imitate the work Xi you ji（西游记）actually the original resource is Sun wu Kong from the chinese work.
中国的西游记是龙珠的灵感来源
His name is just "Wukong"，not Goku. Goku was inspired by the Wukong
small lore recap here, Wukong ultimately lost to Erlang here because of the golden circlet/restraining headband that reappeared on his head. It was originally placed onto him by buddha to help keep him in check on the journey to the west where if he acted out or misbehaved the priest guy he was protecting could chant an incantation causing the headband to tighten causing wukong extreme pain. He ultimately did complete his duty and finished the journey so this all took place after that, he was granted enlightenment and buddhahood and the restraining headband removed. Strange how it materialized on his head now almost as if Buddha himself cast down divine intervention which allowed Erlang to strike him down.
This is how I expected God of war to be like in norse mythology, instead we got a kid with daddy issues
God of war was awesome man
omg, the fight is really stunning and epic and far beyond my expectation for a startup production

Each time we face a fear, we gain strength, courage, and confidence in the doing.
People saying the VA is out of sync. It's actually xQcs livestream/video that's offsync. Look at 12:41, xQc's voice and his facecam is delayed. If it was the game that's offsync, chat would be complaining, but they don't. It's just the lip sync that's weird since the original is in Chinese. But who tf cares about lip syncing in a game.

Some people are clueless about Wukong, that's exactly how he is supposed to act and sound
👍
悟空的翻译只是基于发音，只是发音的翻译 汉语中的“悟空”一词与一种文化有关。“悟空”一词没有对应的英文单词或西方文化单词 这是几千年文化的积累
pondering or meditating on the void. Wu means ponder/meditate, Kong means the void.
The name Wukong actually makes much sense to Buddhists: the realization of Śūnyatā (voidness), which is a fundamental concept in Buddhism.
The English version is ACTUALLY good
I love Wukongs voice and it kinda give me Raiden vibes (MGRR)
Journey to The West
means India
The monk Tangzang and his diverse mob of disciples journey to the holy land of America to obtain the woke scriptures and bring true diversity and equity to the east.

The third eye guy is erlang shen if im correct
Yes, You are right!
Yep!
Oh,yeah er= secend lang = son shen= god. and he is called "The True God of secend son Who Shows Miracles" 。There is a water conservancy project in China called "Dujiangyan", which is almost the same era as the pyramids. It is still in operation. I don't know much about water conservancy projects, but it is said to be a miracle project. It is said that Erlang Shen and his father was the builder. There is still a temple dedicated to him there.
@@lx051225 Regarding on your first edit, I don't know if what i remember is right but the first son of one the four heavenly kings(Ji Ling) is Nezha? Idk bro my Chinese mythology knowledge comes from Fengshen yanyi😂
His name literally shows during the fight
Real Wu Kong! I love it!
This is a magazine not a clip dawg 😭
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?
