Seriously. Why is everyone praising this game?

Is that really it? So it's reverse review bombing? That's so corny.

No, that's something that have never happened in any games before, at least, not games with more than 100 reviews in total.

There is no such thing, and I dare you to gather as many people as you want to "review bomb" this game, I'll congratulate you if you can even manage to drop off 1% of the score.

Every bad revierw in Steam was legitimate, and every positive one in this game is also legitimate, your conspiracy theories are just a way to cope with the fact that there is almost literally noone on your side, so it's always some "review bomb" or "it must be bots", no, the entire world just hate everything you stand for.

I don't think is about the game is "so good." Its about how they didn't fail to achieve what they said they would, compare to other games that failed to do what they said they would. Look at The Day Before or other games that failed. When you don't care about what others thinks and play the game, it's still a good game. (no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ micro transaction and stuff, just a game buy and play.)

1% of 1.4 billion is still 14 million.

i dunno why the game gets so much hype either, i played it and it's honestly just a average action game you would see released many times but with better graphics.

i think people support the game because of the DEI controversy more than the game itself.
same way that hogwarts legacy got so hyped up even tho the game is also fairly average.

It has undoubtedly attracted a lot of toxic American culture warriors, which really has little to do with the game itself and more to do with their reactionary response to some IGN articles.

However personally as a Brit. who grew up in the 80's watching Monkey Magic it's the character of the Monkey King and the story of journey to the west that attracted me.

That said I first encountered this game when I'd been playing around with some amateur games development in UE5 and wanted to find some examples of nanite and their dynamic lighting system being used to full advantage in a commercial game. That's how I found it and of course them my love of the monkey king mythology hooked me.

Now I've played it a bit and it looks amazing they have made good use of nanite in the environments and the characters look amazing too. It's pretty linear but following in the footsteps of journey to the west this makes sense it's a narrative beat'em up with character development I would say and it's a good one.

It's not a live service ARPG and doesn't try to be, it's not an open world game and doesn't try and be that either it's a game telling a story and if you like the story you will love the game. It's also just fun to play and looks great.

honestly it's doing a bad job at telling the story, the game fully expects the players to know the journey to the west book.

it's more of a "HEY LOOK IT'S X CHARACTER FROM THE BOOK" then a actual retelling of the story ina video game format.

i only know small things about journey of the west and the entire time i failed to see why i should care for any of the characters i'm meeting and fighting

its a bad game and chinese people are just shilling for it because its chinese

[★...DEI kills Art...★]

This game is free of DE&I woke propaganda. This is what the world needs.

[BaconX]

It's a fun game and it makes people mad about it.

When all the losers come out spewing hate and troll topics about how popular the game is, you know it's good.

Graphics are mediocre. The game looks like an unreal engine asset flip

Maybe because it's about bashing killing tyranny/authoritarian regime, they are monsters pretending to be gods and rules the life of china people. This what the tv series show told me when I was a little kids, and the philosophy of Buddha that you should rule yourself not the regimes and find enlightenment by compassion.

A bitter irony for the chinese people. [/quotei
It's true, I remember how the tv series pictured most of the gods/authoritarian in heaven are very deceitful, they act helpful yet instill fear in the heart and mind of china people, wukong is the anomaly as his fearless mischievous and lustfull nature he came to challenge the insincere gods, he was came just arrogant and fail hard many times facing them, until he meet a Buddhist monk and became disciple he now learn to manage his temper, and with the help from sincere caring goddess kwam in(motherly figure), also the Buddha itself as the father figure who giving him wise word of enlightenment he now transcend and won the battle against all the deceitful insincere gods/authoritarian, the heaven are now reform with his hands to the point he can becaming god himself, but he refuse because he feels lonely, decide to go back to earth and live with his fellows monkey and rise up as the golden monkey king who rule without spreading fear to his people, his lust and mischievous nature are now balance with his understanding of compassion and love.

Well this tv series are made by hong konger long time ago, mainland china was not advance as today. Am not china or hongkonger btw.
