Competitors Concord and Dustborn Help Explain Black Myth: Wukong’s SuccessCompetitors Concord and Dustborn Help Explain Black Myth: Wukong’s Success

We have seen Black Myth: WukongThe new Soulslike game from Chinese developer Game Science became a real sensation last week with 2,415,714 concurrent players. at its all-time peak on Steam and a 95.58% positive audience score as of this writing. It's on its way to becoming the fastest-selling game of all time, selling ten million copies in four days, Beyond the mega hits Like Hogwarts Legacy And Baldurs Gate 3,

The main reason for the game’s success is that it is a great game by all accounts, but it is being seen as an invasion of conscious video gaming and DEI initiatives being forced into games by the developers and the consulting firms they hire. Sweet Baby Inc. is the most famousAnd sure, that's part of it; it's fun to have self-righteous finger-pointers tell you what to do, what to say, what to think, and what games to play, and their responses have been satisfying. Khee Hoon Chan, co-writer IGN's Hit Piece Sports Science and Black Myth: Wukong Creator Feng Ji orders you not to play the game, or steal it if you must:

Great. But is there an alternative for gamers who want diversity and inclusion in their games? Of course; in fact, this month saw two big releases that are considered Woke in every aspect of their character design or games. But instead of refuting the narrative that gamers are rejecting activist games in favor of some fun games that don't preach to them, these games prove the opposite, especially when compared to these. Black Myth: Wukong,

the first is harmonyFirst-person shooter developed by Sony's in-house studio Firewalk Studios. The State of Sony's PlayStationAnd it didn't exactly light up Broadway for gamers with its cartoony graphics and silly dialogue. Also, harmony Its characters – none of whom, many people noticed, are white men – display their pronouns, as well as some weird features, like body positivity and other things like that. This is even more obvious since the main character designer lectured people on white privilege on social media. harmony Released four days later on August 24 Black Myth: Wukongand its Highest number of concurrent players of all time On Steam it's 697, which is even lower its early access betaAnd while it has a 70.4% positive user rating, that's not from a lot of people. Games journalists are puzzled by how this could be:

The next one is DustborneAn openly aware game developed by Red Thread Games. And when I say “openly aware”, I mean that awareness is the entire purpose of the game; you weaponize things like “bullying”, “normalization” and “cancellation” to fight whatever you encounter Dustborne – Probably giant oranges trying to burn you. One developer even said that Dustborne It was inspired by “a series of political events that deeply affected us all, starting in the summer of 2016 and continuing to this day.” Sounds funny, right? Gamers don't think so, because Dustbornewhich was released on the same day, 20 August Black Myth: Wukong, Steam has an all-time peak I swear… 83 players, and its user reviews are 69.57% positive, and just over 100 people have bothered to rate it. It seems gamers aren't as interested in learning how to be a left wing radical as they are in fighting demons with a monkey warrior.

Anyone could have seen this was going to happen; in fact, while they're feigning confusion, I'm sure game journalists knew no one wanted this crap. But they definitely want people to play it, because Forbesby accepting the Dustborne is “extremely liberal and left-wing”, appeals to gamers to “keep an open mind”. For some reason, no open mind is required Black Myth: Wukongwhich can be instantly dismissed as there are no gay monkeys in it, but you have to admit the teeth-gnashing disgust Dustborne.Meanwhile, a Concorde The developers have called anyone criticizing the game “talentless freaks” whose opinions can be dismissed:

Along with this, a scam is also coming to light DustborneBecause x user @HeySlickThatsMe shared the screenshot saying it mimicked an apartment layout Grand Theft Auto Online,

one of the Dustborne The developers, Thea Berg, seem to confirm this, According to That Park PlaceHe shared the post, saying, “Dude, what do you care about this?” He has since protected his ex-post, probably because people don't like this kind of plagiarism. Some of Berg's old posts seem to clarify politics Dustborne,
