Pin of shame well deserved. It's currently the most concurrently played single player game ever. So people don't care about your opinion. It's a good game without western modern work DEI stuff. Doesn't matter which country it comes out from when that's the case.
Any game with massive HYPE will thrive. 😂 What are you talking about? Pokemon Go was more massive than this because it was hyped severely. Though it was trashed by critics😅 😂😂😂
People have been slandering the game since it was announced because it being made by Chinese devs is crazy. This is originally their mythology, so people shouldn't be disrespecting the time they took to make this game. The game looks impressive for being made by a small dev team. So it made sense the time they took developing this game.
Most Western fantasy work limit themselves to elves, dwarves, orcs, giants and mermaids. Journey to the West and so many Asian stories are some of the most diverse stories you will ever come across.
The funniest part is this is pretty much what happened in wukongs's story! He was being hunted by the heavens, and managed to defeat ot evade everyone they sent to capture him, so even the lead up to its release is myth accurate!
I'm buying this game regardless of its quality solely because I'm sick of being gaslit by the media in all it's forms..... It's about sending a message.
Remember the good ol' days when you would buy a gaming magazine (with a demo in it) and got some good ol' fashion honest review from an actual gamer? We were blessed back then...
Pepperidge Farm remembers.... Oh well, now we have youtubers and get free entertainment schadenfreude to see gamestudios that hate us gamers fail while saving tons of money. 🍿
I'll do you one better, in my country, we had a gaming magazine where some reviewers wrote the reviews in a form of a story (from real life or dramatized). It was amazing and I still can't forget some of them after the years.
EGM was my go to for game info and reviews. It also had some top notch content like Seanbaby's "the rest of the crap" section and the Hsu and Chan comic.
I hope Black Myth will set an example to all developers worldwide and show them it's fine and perfectly safe for a studio to stick to its own artistic vision, regardless of political pressure and demands. I hope this is the beginning of the end of parasite entities like Sweet Baby Ink and servile journalism.
As one of the 1 million proud supporters of Game Science, I hope they keep the momentum, and focus on keeping the hype going. There was true ambition and love put into this game and it shows. So it makes sense we reward devs that put their all into their game.
@@LamiaLover what's really happening is these news sites are desperately trying to remain relevant. They are losing their reach in the space and by default also losing traffic.

@@RealMikeHollow 💯. They have a game with female characters at the forefront (i.e.: Stellar Blade) but complain because they’re too hot beyond their standards.
Already played for a few hours and i'm not disapointed.. There were rumors that the game wouldn't be very challenging, well that was a f*ing lie lmao and i'm loving it!
my favorite story, i read both journey to the west by wu cheng en and consumed everything Wukong since i was 14 years old. there's nothing they could possibly do to make me not want to play this game outside putting DEI into the game. western games could learn alot from eastern game writing about the human experience put into fantasy. thats exactly what sun wukong is, a metaphor for the human experience of mental and spiritual development.
You've hit the nail right on the hand. I'm currently playing the game and it's astounding. And, yes, I remember watching A Journey to the West on public television when they were broadcasting international shows back then.
Brilliant Sir!!!! The Monkey King WINS! Thanks Mike, thanks Game Science, thanks FANS! (I don't even play videogames -- just a old man who grew up with the myth, which gave me my first journey into fantasy!)
@@RealMikeHollow they are crazy but PlayStation trying to hide the game, if you go to psn store, the game is hard to find, meanwhile it’s the release day, it should be on the forefront of the store, instead they have Pre order Concord on the front of their store…

I never heard of journey to the west, but I bought the game to support the studio since it’s been getting so much coverage and it was money well spent, im 4 hours in and I love the game
Journey to the West is among the top Chinese classics, even surpassing the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, my personal fav. I haven't played the game yet but it looks like it respects the source and I'll gladly get it just to support the devs.

*wipes tears* okay sir. Jokes aside, it's not. There was a few images up on twitter of it not being on the main line up or being advertised the way Concord was. Now, if you'll excuse me I was having a good cry before your b*tch ass interrupted me.

Many Americans spoke up when assassins creed revealed that yasuke would be a main character. Many said that it was a betrayal to Japanese history, inaccurate and disrespectful to the Japanese culture. Black myth has garnered an overwhelming amount of support from the gaming community and a large part of the attraction to the game comes from the games developers refusal to allow d.e.i to affect the game. So I ask, was “Asian hate” ever a thing in the United States ? It seems to me that Asian cultures are held in high regard by Americans and disrespect to their cultures in any way is sharply admonished. Just an observation.
5:20 THIS ALL OF THIS im so SICK of people yelling about what some foreigner said and everyone arguing over whether the translation is accurate. Whether its a Chinese or Japanese person saying something that gets google translated and turned into a mess. Im always gonna wait for a real fluent speaker or native to translate and explain the truth.
There were sides being taken. The side that plays or want to play and those that don’t want to play or bash the game due to politics. That’s how half of releases are nowadays.
Ironically ??? I do not think they could have made this game ANY MORE DIVERSE if they tried to ?? Noah would have been proud to have this much diversity on his Ark !!! 🤣
You can wait. But the chinese people and Asia people who watched Journey to the west 1986 version which this game music uses will not hesitate to buy it. In fact, people will support it by buying 2 copies of it 😊
I was not going to buy this game since I don't really play this kind of games but because of their attempt to smear and destroy it, I am going to buy it.
I feel like the amount of times when IGN make false reviews for games they should get sued for it. Considering the devs, the artist who worked on it would get backrupt for their false reviews.
