   I have to say that as a person who grew up watching the #CDrama Journey to the West, the final trailer of Black Myth: #Wukong gave me all kinds of fuzzy feelings.
   Sad, yet predictable that this game was politicised thanks to US-China tensions.

   I do wonder, however, if anyone playing this game will understand the cultural weight of Sun Wukong, how the story centuries' old and is one of China's 4 Great Novels ...

     @glitchontwitch not sure if you want to go down that crazy rabbithole 😅. You know how toxic gaming scene can be. But what I can see, the gaming journalists are veeeery negative about the game, accusing it of many things such as sexism and diverse enough, while the fans on Youtube love it.
     Frankly we should just enjoy the game for what it is 🤷

     @liztai What happened with the game?

     I haven't been super entrenched in the gaming community or industry news lately. At least, outside of MMOs, and DbD.

     @liztai The game was even mentioned in local, Danish newspapers but they focused more on the fact that some employers have given people time off to play the game 😄

     @Sollenbum you can never know, one day someone could invent something that could make all Danish companies go, "Ok, you guys go and take a day off and try it". LOL

     @liztai It would never have happened here, hence the press was fascinated…

     @rakyat I think some YouTubers are already streaming the chapter cut scenes! So it's already for you to watch. That's what I will do for sure.
