A true phenomenon and the best-selling game of the 2020s so far, it will be hard for anything other than GTA 6 to surpass this remarkable success for the rest of the dec
+Despite pretty much everyone assuming the document was made by some bored gamer trying to stir up more discourse for fun, multiple outlets and creators have now confirmed that the guidelines are real and sent by the studio’s marketing partner, Hero Games. A report also says that the document was not part of a sponsored content agreement, where creators are paid to give a game positive coverage and these guidelines, while still bizarre, would be more par for the course. Game Science tried to influence general coverage of the game by extending its own policy of silence to content creators, which backfired very quic
-Elden Ring will likely rack up significant numbers this year too, with both Elden Ring Nightreign and the Tarnished Edition launching in 2025. The latter will probably have an especially huge impact on the game's lifetime sales, as many Elden Ring owners may want to own their favorite game on the Switch 2 as w
+The popularity of gaming shows no signs of stopping, as evidenced by ever-growing Steam player numbers , the rise of digital game sales, and huge unexpected releases even from smaller studios. After their launch back in 2020, the current generation of consoles has finally reached substantial owner numbers to result in massive sales for long-anticipated games, not to mention the nearing launch of Nintendo Switch

+Chapter 2 does provide a much more explorative and open space, feeling more like an RPG, but it is still fairly vacant and the Destined One's lack of maneuverability and mobility is all the same, but in an expanded landscape. On the surface, there's a lot more to see, but instead, the environment makes it far more tedious to get to certain bosses, while unable to traverse them prope
-With this document, the studio has sabotaged its own strategy. Staying silent provided plausible deniability – it doesn’t have to deny misogyny or sexism if it’s not making statements at all. But the phrase "feminist propaganda" makes that plausible deniability moot by declaring exactly what Game Science – or, at least, Hero Games – thinks about the criticism leveled against it, though it’s hard to imagine Hero Games came up with these guidelines on its own. Even with so much positive hype coming out about the game, Game Science has still managed to give players pa
+These fatal flaws consist of frequent stuttering, severe lag, desynced audio, and terrible frame rates. Aside from the frustrating amount of stuttering, the frequent cutting of audio also heavily impacts your experience, especially during boss fights if you're relying on audio c
-Although there have been a ton of great game releases over the last few months , it's been a bit of a quiet Summer for triple-A releases . That's all about to change over the next few weeks though , and it all kicks off with Black Myth: Wukong in a few days. Game Science's adaptation of Journey to the West has been a long time coming since its reveal in 2020 , but it's finally right around the cor
+In its optimal settings, Black Myth: Wukong is a cinematic masterpiece , with stunning and captivating visuals that truly immerse you in its world. It has achieved high amounts of detail and beauty in the mundane, as well as its vast landsca
-If the story was anything to care about, this would be an even more annoying problem, but Black Myth 's story is largely inconsequential . It takes players from one level to the next, introducing them to various characters pulled from Journey to the West , and while there is an overarching story, each chapter also has its own individual tale to tell as well. The dialogue is clunky and the voice acting is unimpressive. But few people play these types of games for the story anyway. Again, Soulslike diehards coming into this likely won't be bothered by Black Myth 's lackluster story, but those expecting something like more traditional character action games are going to be disappoin
+**The irony behind this sentiment is that Black Myth: Wukong is among the easiest of soulslike games, and may have overestimated its ability to hang with them in terms of difficulty ** . While thematically, and stylistically, it undoubtedly falls under this category, it does not quite fit the bill in the technical skills required, such as is achieved by games like Elden Ring , Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice , and many m
-The mentions of "feminist propaganda" and "politics" are damning enough on their own, but the restrictions on mentioning the pandemic or China’s game industry are completely bizarre. I fail to imagine why anybody would want to bring up COVID-19 in their coverage of a video game, nor why Game Science would see this as a real risk to the image of its game and preemptively try to mitigate t
+It seems like the breadth of independent development power in the industry right now is more impressive than it's ever been, with a plethora of studios plugging away at sequels to successful games or set to release exciting new titles. It could be said that this is the pinnacle of an indie game boom, with smaller teams able to more than pull their weight against larger behemoth studios with millions of dollars in backing. Developers like WayForward, Drinkbox Studios, and The Fullbright Company have firmly established themselves as names to know when it comes to indie games, but there is plenty of new talent on the rise as w
+Pokémon titles have always been blockbusters in terms of sales, but even by the franchise's own high standards, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet stand out. Released at the end of 2022, the games have already amassed 26.8 million units sold , notably outpacing popular series releases as Pokémon Sword and Shield and Pokémon Legends: Arce
+Combat starts to get tedious around the same time that the level design becomes more engaging. The first couple chapters of [[https://www.blackmythwukongtalk.com/|Black Myth Wukong story guide]] Myth: Wukong are bland and lifeless. They are a collection of mini-boss fights separated by sparsely populated areas with invisible walls that keep players from venturing off or jumping on platforms that they should otherwise clearly be able to reach. The level design in these early stages does not leave a good first impression. Later chapters have significantly increased scope and are more interesting, with more to see and do between the boss fights, though they perhaps suffer from going on a little too l

-Black Myth: Wukong is a game that shies away from the Soulslike label, yet it is clearly gunning for the Soulslike audience. It is far from the best in the genre, but it's also not the worst game that has followed in Dark Souls ' footsteps. If you go into it expecting a mostly standard Soulslike experience with some blood-boiling boss encounters mixed in with basic level design, you will have a better time than if you were going into it expecting it to be like a traditional character action game. Black Myth: Wukong offers about 30 hours of gameplay for its first playthrough with a ton of side content to check out as well, but many will tire of the limited combat options long before they reach its dazzling yet equally aggravating final boss fi
+After that, the series has seen several more record-breaking performers, and while exact figures aren't available, it can be assumed that the performance of at least Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is comparable to Black Ops Cold War . Modern Warfare 2 earned over $800 million in three days and was among the biggest PS Store launches ever, while Black Ops 6 has been confirmed to be the biggest launch in the series' history . Even though the latter might not have reached the 30 million sales mark yet, having been released less than a year ago, it's projected to be among the best-selling Call of Duty titles e
