Why the hype?

Already the second most played game of all time?

I mean, it looks interesting and all, but it's a new franchise from a mostly unknown developer. Or am I missing something here? The numbers feel unreal.

cause monkey

but on a serious note,
- game looks amazing
- Wukong character is interesting, since its based on acclaimed chinese novel 'Journey to the west'
- no woke politics
- literal next gen game

everyone thought it was a fake game for years with the early trailers because of its graphics. and now its real and playable so people are playing. it also includes woke mannerisms and DEI. no i wont explain further

For China everything is real.

Why do you care so much?

It's a statement against DEI

Reproduction rates of China.

What's most important is that this is truly an excellent game, and because the protagonist of the game has been well-known to the Chinese people four centuries ago, almost all Chinese today know and love him, which is why there are so many Chinese players.

Falsely generated hype over the controversy. That and the game looked incredible in the videos leading up to it's release. No reason a UE5 tech demo like this should be receiving the praise that it is. People must really love invisible walls and bad performance.

Go make a video reviewing indian food and you’ll get hundreds of thousands of indians commenting and liking.

Now imagine that but chinese and video games. Most of the 2 million is basically all chinese. People can cope about muh chinese are at work but the chinese middle class keep in mind is bigger than any middle class in the world lmao.

"People" these days get their opinion from streamers, so I would guess it was them who hyped the game up? I don't pay any attention to that so I can't say for sure.

[fearless]

there are 1.5b people in china and they love this game

So basically you're saying that you don't know and give a blank statement.
