The racists in IGN must be crying buckets :)

I don't think IGN is inherently racist, they are upset they couldn't get the developers to play in their artificial drama. IGN lives by creating content and drama, so they need everybody to respond to them and play into their stories.

A game studio only wanting to talk about their game? And a game journalist being upset that's all they want to do? That seems insane

- It's almost like the Chinese aren't little drama cunts about racism.

  Racism isn't exactly the right word, but China and the rest of east asia have thousands of years of historical ethnic prejudices. It's just not interpreted as "racism" because it's more complicated than the color of your skin, and that's typically what westerners can wrap their heads around at any given point.

What are the racists saying at IGN?

- IGN published multiple hit pieces about Wukong, based on intentional mistranslations of posts in Chinese social media.

Are you referring to their ridiculous terms restricting what streamers could talk about?

If so how is that racist?

Edit: nvm saw your other comment. It's still crazy to put out terms like that though.

Is it any good gameplay wise?

- It's decent, extremely boss heavy, very linear. But the story is well done and it looks and feels good to play. If you've recently played Elden Ring tho, the terrain is going to feel like prison bars to you, very little exploration despite looking like you should be able to explore.
  
  If you aren't into souls like type games, wait for a sale. Reviews critical about the gameplay are mostly right.

- It's a good action with some souls mechanics (not a soulslike though), crazy good graphics, bosses and enemy variety. Should also be decently optimized for pc
  
  Plot wise is basically a fan sequel of Journey to the west. If you aren't familiar with that don't expect to understand shit about what's going on.
  
  The only real tangible issue is mediocre map design (very simplistic and linear) and (some say) some balancing issues.
  
  In short, if you enjoy 3d actions and/or souls you'll probably have you money's worth.

  I liked Journey to the West, it was really funny for a thousand-plus-year-old book, but didn't they all die at the end? Or rather, ascend to Buddhahood?

- The people I personally know say it's great but feels like a boss rush with very short paths to boss rooms.

I will wait until they fixed some issues DF mentioned before I'll buy it. (also currently busy with other games.)

Fun game

One of the most over-hyped. The more hype and chatter a game has, the less likely I am to play it. I have been so disappointed so many times, and then a lot of games that get shit on turn out to be excellent.

The gaming opinions of the broad public are obnoxious and sometimes it feels more like lemmings rather than actually amazing games.
