Avoiding controversy
There's a lot of controversy surrounding this game with many journalists calling for boycotting and even pirating Wukong due to many diversity complaints. I don't understand why Game Science didn't just incorporate pronouns at the start of the game like many other modern games. The devs could have avoided a lot of the negative sentiments and headaches. Seems like an unforced error on Game Science's part.

But what is not diverse about this game? It has monkeys kings, celestial court deities, humanoid wolves, even more humanoid wolves, other types of wolves, rats, tigers, dragons, bears, undead, bats, other weird cosmic Chinese horror stuff, it has tons of diversity!

It's a veritable anthropomorphic cornucopia!

That's plenty diverse for me.

Well, that's just your opinion. But you cannot deny there's a concensus amongst game journalists this game has a big diversity problem.

Is there? Have you read every single article around the game? Because metacritic at least seems to say otherwise, has a high score and other than the usual suspects like Kotaku or Gamerant or IGN most dont even mention diversity.

Honestly, not having pronouns doesn't scream superior to me.

the main controversy around this game is its connection to the Chinese government. the game is essentially made my the ccp, their main selling point that its not woke. which is working. but their is hidden ccp propaganda. using the game to push a CCP narritive brainwashing people like they do with tiktok. boycott the game due to human rights violations i.e persecution and rape of Uyghurs and the organ harvesting of Falun gong and dissidents . not because its not woke. any and all games that are owned by tincent should be boycotted. they had told streamers and youtubers to refrain from talking about controversial topics and anything that goes against the CCP. btw this might get taken downs like alot of other truth comments about the Chinese communist party but Taiwan is a country and the Tiananmen square massacre happened.
How bout just enjoy the game and stop complaining, Is that really something you can't do?

it would be different if it was some random studio based i china and not a direct company run by their government. this is all im gonna say about it, just spreading the word.
You're not spreading the word of anything, We're all aware China is a f*cked Country, Stop trying to act like you care about how they live, They'll collapse soon enough.

Exactly, plus, pot calling the kettle black, which country isn't ♥♥♥♥♥♥, I'm sure I can find evidence of United States funding at least a couple wars right now for example, some which solely carpet bomb civilians.
