Success of Black Myth: Wukong Enrages Games JournalistsSuccess of Black Myth: Wukong Enrages Games Journalists

Black Myth: WukongChinese developer Game Science's much-anticipated Soulslike action game makes a lake-emptying splash when it started yesterday. It had 2,223,179 maximum concurrent players on Steam on its first day, the second-highest total ever after 3,257,248. PUBG: Battlegrounds Created in 2018. Today, Black Myth: Wukong crossed himself 2,415,714 top concurrent playersWhich – along with its 96% positive user review score – suggests that gamers who have played it love it and continue to play while new people are trying it out, presumably due to good word of mouth. It also means that, like mainstream media, games journalists are losing their ability to influence their intended audience; the hate campaign Sports Science and Black Myth: Wukong Producer, Feng Ji (based on mistranslation of his words), hasn't inspired a single person to quit the game, and journalists aren't too happy about it.

You can see their frustration with how they're lamenting the lack of diversity and representation in games with angry articles about an anthropomorphic ape who fights demons, based on 16.th-Chinese novels of the century. The biggest complaint came from Tom Foley of Dot Esports, whose writings are lamentable One can only believe it after reading “lack of diversity”, although if you are a guy, I suggest you keep some bourbon and steak around so as not to lose testosterone while doing it. Apart from what the Screen Rant writer claims, The game's review score was lowered Having been “bullied off the internet” (how do you bully someone off the internet?) for “doing his job” due to his inadequate inclusion and representation, he complains about gamers finding a game that thinks there are more important things than adhering to a diversity checkbox. He also says that he hasn't found any women after playing Black Myth: Wukong I haven't played for over 40 hours Black Myth: Wukong (Don't have a PS5 yet), but others have, and they're saying the game has female characters:

So, either Foley is lying, or he hasn't met any of these women yet, which would seem odd if he's played this game for over forty hours, unless they all show up together, like in that scene at the end of the movie. Avengers: EndgameWhatever the case, this clearly includes women. Black Myth: WukongAnd it seems that hateful gamers who hate everyone but straight white men don't seem to mind that. Shocking, isn't it? But that's what people like Foley always do; they misrepresent any opinion that opposes them. Gamers don't dislike diversity per se; they dislike forced diversity that becomes more important to game developers than gameplay, story, or characters, and they really hate being called racist because of it. That's what “woke” means, and I always define the term that way John Nolte of Breitbart What does: “Awakening breaks the spell.” Diversions used to illustrate a point – which is what Foley is advocating in his article – take you out of the experience of playing a video game, watching a movie or reading a comic book, and the story loses its grip on you. Nobody likes a lecture, and that's what everyone's hobby is becoming. Black Myth: Wukong declared that he was not going to do it, and Like stellar blade Before thisThis is a hit.

Following on from Foley's article, Wired published A fun way to cope Gaming media declares collective victory over game science… despite Black Myth: Wukong It's such a success that almost everyone likes it. Their reasoning is that reviewers who got early access to the game have been asked for guidelines Excluding “feminist propaganda” and other political nonsense (which didn't come from Game Science; it came from co-publisher, Hero Games) in their reviews created a Streisand effect, leading to more people talking about the lack of representation and calling out Game Science as mean people who hate women. That's awesome, and I'm glad they feel better (okay, that's a lie), but do you think Game Science cares about some feminist on YouTube when their game is setting records? How can this be a victory for anyone other than the Stuart Smalleys of the world, who think that telling their mirror how awesome they are is the greatest victory of all? In fact, you could argue that this is the actual Streisand effect; games journalists and other activists are propagating it Black Myth: Wukong They don't have that forced agenda they want to shove into every piece of entertainment, giving gamers a hint that this might actually be good. Being defined by your enemies has its benefits.

and speaking of those rules Black Myth: Wukong Reviewers, would you like another example of why a developer or publisher might release them? PCGamer just posted an article About the trailer Batman: Arkham Shadows Titled “Watch a latex-clad billionaire punch poor people in the debut gameplay trailer Batman: Arkham Shadows.” Can you taste the bile in your throat? Who describes a Batman game like that? Certainly no one is interested in talking about whether or not it looks like a fun game. That's what games journalists are now; they're activists pushing their socio-political causes – which are allowing criminals to run wild and kill whoever they want in this case, I guess – instead of talking about the merits of video games. That article wasn't written for gamers or normal people who might come across it; it was written by lunatics for other lunatics, people who either sincerely think Gotham City would be better off if Batman let the Joker turn everyone into smiling corpses with his Joker Venom or just think they look great doing so. The fad is over. Black Myth: Wukong This will further expose who these lunatics are, and it would be fun if this article leads to more sales Batman: Arkham ShadowsVery.
