Another massive thank you to Apex Gaming PCs, who were kind enough to partner with me on this video. apexgamingpcs.com/pages/gamingpcs/?ref=sambram Feature-length videos like this take an insane amount of time to create and are a big risk. This one wouldn’t have been possible without Apex’s support so go check out their range if you want a new PC to make this game look even better! Also, use the code 'WeLoveOurPartners' before September 30th for 20% off!
I will say it doesn't beat Nioh 2 even though it utilized the stances/Yokai powers really well, it just doesn't quite have the same satisfying gameplay and boss fights but it came close. Nioh 2 is still the best souls like with WAY better combat than any From game besides BB and Sek, I loved souls since demons but the combat is so clunky and dated now and wish Elden kept Sekiros fluidity and melee. Wo Long was fun but didn't get into the world, Wukong is a solid blend of both
Thank you, I'm really glad you enjoyed it! This game was my first exposure to Journey to the West and it was a pleasure to learn all about the story and lore. The depth of storytelling in this game is incredible and it's clear just how much passion and respect the developers have for the original works.
yes, but that being said, I suggest people learn more from english speaking chinese diaspora youtubers to know the nuance of the story because, for example there are things in chinese language that requires chinese speaking people to be able to point out the why and the how... I've been watching videos from EmpressXV and AvenueX that covers the game even if they're totally not gaming channels.
Splendid! You are destined one sent by the universe to tell us these amazing stories. As JTTW reader, i was not realize the meaning of Non-white, pure, void and able has relationship with Tang Shan Zhang‘s disciples. Well explained and you had done a great job!
wow this is an amazing recap, played the game twice and read all the journals but still couldnt put several pieces together. Amazing content and storytelling!!
The journals do tell most of it but the issue I think with a lot of the entries is they refer vaguely to characters. Where some of the stories are also just straight up anecdotal. It relies on a wider contextual knowledge from the audience and took a fair bit of research before I understood each chapter enough to explain it
It really amazing that such a small studio fit all of these lore in just 6 chapters. imagine if they actually have time, money, and ppl to make the intended 13 chapters, Really look forward for the DLC.
It's an incredible game through and through. Nothing else this year comes close I don't think. It'll probably do what BG3 did last year in terms of rewards but then should hopefully also get some DLC. Though I'd be curious as to when DLC is going to be set chronologically since if it takes place after these events then will they be giving the protagonist the voice of Wukong? Either way, there's a lot more story to pull from to create lore for additional chapters
Good job summarizing for the English audience. I think you should do a separate video detailing Erlang's family background since he is half human and half celestial. His mother is younger sister of Jade Emperor and the things that Erlang went through against his uncle etc. All of these additional information is assumed to be known for the Chinese market... so English only players are actually disadvantaged here.
I have watched this entire 3 hour video, it took me 2 days but my God. I was not aware of the story in my first playthrough, only on the second one did I start to get more familiar. This entire explanation of the story of Journey to the West that leads to Black Myth was just amazing! I legit think this is one of the best games and story modes I have ever played thanks to this video that clarifies why I made that journey. I didn't get the Bad Ending, I got the feeling it went all a bit too smoothly so I started exploring more and discovering Erlang Shen at the Great Pagoda, getting the true ending, but again, in my second playthrough, everything made sense!
There are several indications in the game suggest that the 4th Sister in Chapter 4 has engaged with one of the previous Destined Ones. Which was why she helped the current Destined One, and smiled and wore a crying makeup in a few scenes, and shouted "Run!" in her final scene.
Bro I didnt even know about JTTW only bought because of sick looking boss and ✨MONKE✨ but after this video..... Holy sh!!t that's a story alright, i couldn't understand what would be innthe DLC but now the possibilities are vast. Thank you for this video my guy.
wukong really is the strongest fighting monkey king 👑 and he's high outerversal and the only thing that was able to control and tame Wukong with the golden headband in the golden headbands what got him killed in the opening of the fight play the true Monkey King rest in peace and let the Destin one rise and take The Monkey King's place

Hello, I’m a fellow console player here(PS5)but I’ve been wanting to upgrade my set up as an better gameplay, resolution and better frames for games likes BMW or Rainbow Six Siege. Therefore is a PC something I should be looking into?
A good PC is going to be far better in terms of quality than consoles will be. You can also upgrade individual components afterwards rather than buying a whole new system every several years. I've only ever bought one complete PC and just swapped out bits and pieces since then. Apex who I mentioned in the video have a 20% sale at the minute so that's a good place to start.
this is what game should look like not only game but also have great story even based on spiritual or religion that have values and also about the culture history and etc not like woke woke game!!! GOTY 2024
🤦 Bajie is pronounced Bah • G. Jie makes a G sound not an A or J sound... You can watch anything Sun Wukong/Journey to the West related to hear the correct pronunciation... Pronunciation is almost as important as spelling in my books.
You couldn’t sound like more of an asshole, you could have phrased this better and let people know the proper pronunciation instead of making a fool of yourself
