I love how the same people calling Japanese society "violently racist" also believe a 16th century Japanese Emperor handed a black man the full title and standing of Samurai.
The funny thing was there also that Guy with similiar rank (Sandal Bearer) with Yasuke (Weapon Bearer) - serving same Nobunaga Oda The guy in question is the Gigachad Toyotomi Hideyoshi. He was of peasant class and mocked as monkey. even after Nobunaga promote him for his legendary achivement and Hideyoshi eventualy united Japan. Japanese Clans still consider Hideyoshi is not a Samurai. and therefore He was cant and never be "acknowledged" as Shogun If Great Unifier of Japan is not even acknowledged as Samurai, some Black Slave would most certainly never will~
🤣🤣🤣 its funny how the supposed time yasuke was in Japan 20 years prior to William Adams the first white samurawhich its documented he become one in 1605 Funny how Adams still suffered racism even tho he was extremely beneficial to shogun tokugawa leyasu .and its documented so. How is a supposed black samura not recorded 20 years prior
The game has spider woman, fox woman, Monkey man, Pig man, Headless man, god, tiger, black bear, .... I don't know what more you can ask on the diversity. Of course there is no alphabet people b/c game has no human.
Funny thing is the story of Journey to the West was one of the most diverse stories ever written. You have a Buddhist monk, an immortal monkey, a celestial pig, a sea demon and a soft-hearted noodle dragon as the heroes. Half their antagonists are well developed women who could match the heroes in wit and power. Their greatest supporter is the very powerful Guanyin, a female Boddhisatva, who solves a lot of their problems. If these 'journalists' had done their due diligence, they would have known exactly how diverse the characters were.
@@dorawang5451 exactly 👍👍 Mabey these people are salty coz they know deep down no matter how hard they try they’ll never transition into a monkey man🤷♂️
When the game is a single-player non-f2p game, concurrent players literally doesn't matter. The only metric that is relevant is SALES. If literally everyone stopped playing it today and never picked it up again, the game would be a MASSIVE success. It's already over. Gamers won.
Game Science choosing not to answer them is the best way to deal with them. There's no way you can win a logical argument against them because their whole narrative is based on lies. So by not answering you pretty much saying I will not participated into your delusion.
Something tells me that if they were allowed to "westernize" the game, they wouldn't try to slander it and the devs as much, if at all. Fascinating behavior coming from the "inclusive" people isn't it? Also their take is funny because if you said Black panther "lacked diversity" they'd call you racist.
Speaking of black panther, there is a marvel and black panther game coming out. The head writer SaId white people make her and her co workers feel UNCOMFORTABLE. BOYCOT BOYCOT.
game not for modern audience wukong 2M+ active players game for modern audience dustborn 70+ active players mostly reviewers and people playing it because they heard of the controversy
But compare to modern games made by modern devs for modern audience, this so called mediocre game that sell over 10 million copies is nothing right? Right???
One day, these people will realize that they are not the majority, but instead a very tiny, almost negligible minority, and maybe they'll quit being dumb. The game is so far from mediocre, what a bad cope. It's so weird a game based on a very important piece of historical literature is getting inundated with something as stupid as modern politics.
Very true. I am not so hopeful on these people quitting being dumb, but if they'll shut up it will be already fantastic. Not that it matters. Gamers have already made their choice, confining "journalists" of this kind to their tantrum-closet.
Realizing that one is not in the majority has no bearing on the legitimacy of a claim. "Appeal to majority" is a formal logical fallacy. "The majority believes the earth is flat, therefore the earth is flat". I don't agree with "these people", I just think that any arguments made against them have more substance than "they're the minority". Sorry for the nerd out
it's because they live in their little echo chambers. they don't really interact with people who have different opinions that they can't just block. if you just listen to social media/online stuff, it seems like the world has gone insane. yet if you go outside and talk to real people in real life who don't make politics or sexuality their entire identity, most people are pretty grounded in reality.
Funny thing about that. They want to destroy the games we love. They have tons of woke media, but look at Acolyte and Concord. Woke as hell with all the boxes checked. And complete dumpster fires. It's all about the message. Nothing more, nothing less.
Nah I will pick it up in a steam sale. Like I do with every game. Who pays full price for games these days? When a little patience saves money. Then again I have very limited disposable income so don’t have much choice but to wait for sales.
@@Herowebcomics it works out. I don’t buy games ‘blind’ anymore since I never buy at launch.

Looks like Rebekah Valentine's buddies are now taking her place and are performing damage control. Black Myth Wukong will continue to succeed while games catering to them like Concord and Dustborn falls off a cliff.
Hey everyone, I have a feeling this game will not be nominated for any award this year. This will show how corrupt the whole media are. Of course, Concord will be nominated in Wukong stead.
Guess all we can do is to SUPPORT these devs and show ALL gaming companies out there that we do NOT care about wokes! Also if these journalists ever got passed Chap 3 there are 10 *GORGEOUS-LOOKING* females in the game!!!
Current state of game media reminds me of post-USSR situation. We used to have several big journals dedicated to games in mid 90s mid 00s. They were a dream job, an absolute authority and final verdict on any game. But just in a span of a decade they started to get closer and closer with publishers, praising obvious junk and trashing objectively good projects. They contained less and less insights, more and more personal opinions about everything in the world except game industry. More ads, more elitism and superiority towards readers. In the end they mostly disappeared even their online version hardly breaking 1000 views per month.
Imagine a world where games like Wukong and Stellar Blade are mocked by fans because journalist say they are bad for them. Then games like Concord and Dustborn were celebrated and made 10s of millions because its inclusive. Where would the devs and journalists go from there? What are they trying to accomplish?
Urinalism at it's best. Instead of bothering with non-existant stuff like "sexist devs!" they should focus on what their website is actually there for: discussing and reviewing the games itself. This IGN hit-piece this whole "case" is built on is laughable "proof" of any wrongdoing.
Imagine actually complaining about a video game based in Chinese mythology in which a monkey God is fighting other animal deities. These people are genuinely amusing to watch and study 😆
Its a double whammy win for us against the woke. Black Myth's success and Conord's abysmal failure together creates a honey sweet victory . And then you see the journos squirm. LMAO
So glad Wukong was made. Probably it's the game that will change the industry both in China (too focused on mobile gaming for quick bucks) and in the west, plagued by stuff like the above and all their ideological junk no gamer ever cared about.
The sad part is they can't see the contradictions in reality to all these things they say. Complaining about gamers not caring but also complaining when their games flop (or others do well). It's because gamers *do* care, they just don't agree with you. And when your only argument is ad hominem anyone with a brain knows you have no argument and stops listening. Just remember most of these people are not gamers (and drifted into journalism in the case of the games journalists), so who really cares what they think. As has been pretty solidly proven at this point the 'modern audience' they keep harping on about either doesn't exist or at the least it doesn't play games. Funny that these outlets are kind of sort of realizing that trying to 'cancel' this game has backfired in a huge way as people are a lot more aware of agenda driven 'reporting' now a days. It is entertaining to laugh at them though.
I have a strange feeling this whole thing happened before with another game. Like history is repeating... I can't remember which game but the whole "they made a game that sucked, tried to make it seem better while bashing another game that was loved by everyone and outdid it in every way; only for them to change their tune and pretend like they supported it all the time" seems very familiar. Like I've seen this reported at least 2 - 3 times... for the love of me I can't remember why and I wish I did.
This is very normal, games are not the most important thing, and good games will always appear every few years, so people tend to forget those victims. That's why these journos have the courage to keep doing such things. Because, in fact, as long as they successfully kill a game, no one will pursue them.
Game science studio is like "common, are you trying to rich us to death?" they don't even have to invest in promotion, these freaks do it for them so well.
If they don't like the game, its not for them. Not everygame needs to tick every DEI box with its characters and designs. Wukong is a perfect symbol of diversity as it is an Asian myth and characters designed by a Chinese team. It is games like those that creates true diversity, not your cringy forced DEI crap like Dustborn and Concord that not one wants to play. Those activists are making diversity worst by attacking a truely diverse game that is context accurate.
Remember “Howard’s legacy”? Here is the same story. The only one thing they get with all that sh*t is more popularity for the game. I have no PC, playing games on my PS5, and honestly this is not my game. But now I bought a copy of “Black Myth” on Steam. That’s it. Dreaming about that old good days.
Woke Activist keeping repeating the same comments The "No Comment" response from Game Science is Awesome Gamers don't listen to Activist or Journalist.
Steam Deck? Gamer bonafides def in question... Also, the delusion in these ppl to think their (see above statment) amatuer gamer opinion trumps 2.5m ppls should tell you all you need to know abt their overinflated sense of self-importance.
I feel this is game would be slightly less popular if there wasn’t any undeserved controversy kinda like how Hogward’s Legacy got more popular because of the controversy
I looked up ash perrish because I didn't know who she was and saw this on her x bio, "Reporting on the biz, culture, & horniness of the game industry" 😂
Game Sceince give zero hoots about these self directed drama by wokies However, their rants has helped pushed Wokong Sales cos a lot of pple, including me, bought the game just to stand up to Woke Great game btw - love it 😃
Who those game “journalists” think they are to talk about success, especially when it comes to game development? I would be surprised if they were able to write a functional “hello world” line of code (and before someone asks me, yes, I see development as coding).
I was hesitant buying the game cause people kept calling it a souls-like game. And i dont like souls games. But i got it and onky been able to p;ay 30 minutes and the game looks goregous. Only got as far as the werewolf looking monster. The game is more like DMC a fairly linear path with some branch offs.
funny how they already have their woke games that they can play whenever as well as all check boxed movies and shows. But yet they wont watch those or play those and want everything else to fall in line.
Let's address the criticism regarding the nonportrayal of female characters. Beyond the second chapter, the game features strong and exceptionally attractive women. Critics (journos) are simply envious because they can't compare to the women in the game.
sbi shills : WuKong is too mediocre for all this drama also sbi shills : Boycott WuKong I pre-ordered Digital Deluxe Edition of Black Myth: WuKong just to spite on you, sbi shills.
If any game companie works with sweet baby or any of these woke companies they are asking for there games to fail we do not want any woke bs in games games helps me escape reality i do not wont anything from reality into the games that i like playing so i hope this is a big wake up call for the gaming companys stop doing this and stop listening to them there not here to help you
Be what you feel what you are but just don't put the woke on games because gaming is a fantasy that takes you out of your real world and lets you enjoy a story. What you are is just personal.
The biggest problem with Black Myth: Wukong sales is that there aren't any data about where the game was bought. I often read on polish sites that only Chinese buy this game and without them this game would be a flop. If there would be a was to get those data then they wouldn't have any arguments.
"Wukong is mediocre" , but a crappy VN unironically feeding off memes and using skills such as "being triggered and calling people racists" is awesome ? Yeah right
Perish mentions that it's "odd" for someone to dictate how the games are talked about when that's exactly what paid shills, like "games media", have to do so they keep getting their special perks and access. It's not "odd", it's a standard practice.
Now that the game has sold over 10 million and NO ONE is defending them, now they are changing the narrative. Never forget, never forgive.
You forgot never surrender 😅

BMW , PBZ AND WARHAM ARE GOING TO BE THE BEST GAMES THIS YEAR NO DOUBT
SBI got gamers rooting for China lol
I feel this is game would be slightly less popular if there wasn’t any undeserved controversy kinda like how Hogward’s Legacy got more popular because of the controversy
I looked up ash perrish because I didn't know who she was and saw this on her x bio,
"Reporting on the biz, culture, & horniness of the game industry"
😂
Game Sceince give zero hoots about these self directed drama by wokies
However, their rants has helped pushed Wokong Sales cos a lot of pple, including me, bought the game just to stand up to Woke
Great game btw - love it 😃
At this point, it's best to ignore their articles. They are banking on hate clicks.
Who those game “journalists” think they are to talk about success, especially when it comes to game development? I would be surprised if they were able to write a functional “hello world” line of code (and before someone asks me, yes, I see development as coding).
Remember 90s games n movies!?..Good Times none of this crap!
I was hesitant buying the game cause people kept calling it a souls-like game. And i dont like souls games.
But i got it and onky been able to p;ay 30 minutes and the game looks goregous. Only got as far as the werewolf looking monster. The game is more like DMC a fairly linear path with some branch offs.
People call it a soulslike because you rest like how they have bonfires in souls game. As well as dodging, but many games have that even Pokémon.
They should put it on sale and romp the market
Who does Ash Parish think is causing all the drama??
Sweet baby - should be banned . No one should listen to them
How do they know that the game has no women? These animals could identify as women but just not let the player know.
Cultural imperialist nothing more.
Propagandist - Noun - 1. a person who disseminates messages calculated to assist some cause or some government. These people are not JOURNALIST!
Anyone who says black myths combat is simplistic is self snitching that they didn't play the game😂
Flip burgers? That would mean that these basement dweller will have to leave the house
Be the gamer that kotaku and ign think you are
funny how they already have their woke games that they can play whenever as well as all check boxed movies and shows. But yet they wont watch those or play those and want everything else to fall in line.
Let's address the criticism regarding the nonportrayal of female characters. Beyond the second chapter, the game features strong and exceptionally attractive women. Critics (journos) are simply envious because they can't compare to the women in the game.
Without doubt, it is a great game. Complainers do not have to play this game period.
Critics of Black Myth are sore losers!.
Jealous as hell!
Poor values.
Simplistic combat?
Thanks to Ash for admitting she didn't play the game for longer than 30 minutes.
Chapter 4 is literally a love story, theres like 6 female homosapien looking things, not exactly women, they are spider demons. 😢
That’s diversity baby!
"10 million sold" nothing else to say.
Good luck pirating a Denuovo game.
You're doing exactly the same thing to this person with your headline that media did to game science in their reporting.
Easy mode would not help them. They alway on the stupidity mode, that is no helping.
I mean I do sorta agree with the verge person comment. Not article but jist. The game is great hit but it's not the game to end all games etc
Underplaying the genocide in Palestine is crazy
sbi shills : WuKong is too mediocre for all this drama
also sbi shills : Boycott WuKong
I pre-ordered Digital Deluxe Edition of Black Myth: WuKong just to spite on you, sbi shills.
wait, these people are actually real?
botton mashing? Are we talking about Diablo? lol
Apparently not😂!
If any game companie works with sweet baby or any of these woke companies they are asking for there games to fail we do not want any woke bs in games games helps me escape reality i do not wont anything from reality into the games that i like playing so i hope this is a big wake up call for the gaming companys stop doing this and stop listening to them there not here to help you
What is SBI site, sexist site or poono?
Be what you feel what you are but just don't put the woke on games because gaming is a fantasy that takes you out of your real world and lets you enjoy a story. What you are is just personal.
The Verge is mediocre
On a good day 😂
This is not my style of game. I will probably still buy it though just as a middle finger to these weirdos
The biggest problem with Black Myth: Wukong sales is that there aren't any data about where the game was bought. I often read on polish sites that only Chinese buy this game and without them this game would be a flop. If there would be a was to get those data then they wouldn't have any arguments.
The game is second highest selling PS5 title of all time after Fortnite, in PlayStation US! That alone should debunk that theory
@@kevinlin4895 Didn't know. Thx.
"Wukong is mediocre" , but a crappy VN unironically feeding off memes and using skills such as "being triggered and calling people racists" is awesome ? Yeah right
dude is a game journalist and plays the game on steam deck 🤦
DUDE! Are you crazy!? Are you crazy!! ARE YOU CRAZY!! What you are saying makes no sense!
Perish mentions that it's "odd" for someone to dictate how the games are talked about when that's exactly what paid shills, like "games media", have to do so they keep getting their special perks and access. It's not "odd", it's a standard practice.
