Chinese Netizens: Beautiful Graphics, Incredibly Fun

Regarding the gaming experience of "The Myth of Black: Wukong," many Chinese netizens expressed satisfaction:

"It's fun, challenging, but really enjoyable."

"This morning, I played with a PS5 until I reached the head of the Daoist, I can only say it's incredible."

"So much fun!!!"

"Haven't encountered any bugs, the graphics are beautiful."

"Don't underestimate it, the atmosphere of the Black Monkey is quite strong, although the little monsters are a bit of a filler, the NPC dialogues are basically not repetitive. There are indeed many bosses."

"The music is incredible, the feel of the light and heavy sticks and the charged stick is very good. This is just the beginning, the skill system hasn't even been unlocked yet… if conditions permit, I recommend playing with a controller."

Some netizens speculated that the online number of Black Wukong exceeded 1.4 million, which is 400,000 higher than the peak of 2077, and now it's Tuesday daytime, will it reach 2 million online by the weekend night? The only suspense is whether it can break the record of 3 million concurrent players in PUBG.

However, some netizens also reacted: "The combat in The Myth of Black is not very meaningful, just hitting with a stick from start to finish, I don't know if there will be any changes later?" To this, other netizens responded: "The experience mainly depends on exploring and picking up monster skills", "Sekiro also uses a single sword from start to finish, to be honest, I prefer the feeling of trying new weapons in other Souls games, but if a weapon is well made, it's also good."

In addition, the map design flaws of "The Myth of Black: Wukong" have caused many netizens to complain, stating:

"It's good, but it's really easy to get lost without a map."

"The map guidance is really bad, with air walls everywhere."

"The map is too realistic, the guidance is not very clear."

"I disagree, because it's really easy to get lost. If the map guidance was good, I wouldn't say anything. It's hard to put into words as it is now."
