WOW I have been a gamer since 1994 and I've never seen anything like this game. My wife and I love it. The graphics and cut scenes are amazingly directed, the story is dark and beautiful. The most amazing thing about this game is the creativity of the designers - every chapter is played differently and every boss fight is unique!!!
This game is great for duos like a couple, buddies, parent-child, and siblings, pushing Co-op to the next level of fun!

Nostalgic!

Many insist that this is NOT a Souls-like game, but I strongly believe Black Myth: Wukong overly relied on referencing Souls during its development. It is not Souls-like; it is a Souls-wannabe.

As a shoddy version of Dark Souls, the combat system is overly complicated by useless moves and excessive flourishing. Souls players will find this game too easy; assuming you are well-trained in timing dodges and conserving stamina, you will ram your way through the game. The story is short, the gameplay is extremely buggy - there are several incidents will trigger a game freeze requiring a restart and loss of progress. So this unrefined game is definitely not worth $60. It is much like a BETA version.

There are also visible paths with invisible walls. Yes you can reference to the map and find your way, but some of us like the sense of immersion and forcing us to rely on the map just ruins the experience.

Starting from Chapter 2, the copying of some monsters from Elden Ring / Souls begins to be more and more obvious. It is easy to tell that Game Science was running out of ideas. Let me list some examples:

Naming:
Ashen One vs. Destined One

Enemy resemblance:
Curseblade vs. Rat Imperial Guard
Rolling boulder vs. Rolling ball
Wretch vs. Withered Corpse

Aggro mechanism:
Dragging out of range after aggroing an enemy, they will slowly back away to their original post, at the same pace with the same movement.

The positive side is this game immerses the player into the ancient Chinese world. The language, music, arts, and historical references are extremely well-integrated.

I think it is fair to say Game Science is detail-oriented and talented in animation and script-writing, but they lack creativity and originality. All they really did was combine "Journey to the West" with Dark Souls and removed the awesome weapon arts and weapon enhancement feature.
Overall, this game is a good substitute to quench the itch while waiting for the next Souls game to be released by FromSoftware. However, I would not invest more than $35 on it (not $10 or $50—just $35).

My ratings for your reference:
10/10 for Dark Souls 3
8/10 for Elden Ring
6.5/10 for Black Myth: Wukong

啟動遊戲時有黑頻問題, 但alt-tab幾次後可以憑運氣修復, 通常需花費10-15分鐘反覆alt-tab再回到遊戲的過程. 玩幾周後突然連alt-tab都沒反應了. 直接不能玩. 感覺被騙錢了

更新: 降低了refresh rate, 可以玩了. 但代價是每次打贏一場仗(5v5)之後會閃退, 遺失遊戲進度.

Very short campaign missions. The game is all focused on combat, which is actually pretty well designed.
Great mechanics and variability when you repeat a played mission.
The campaign is well written and I feel like there is a lot of potential to this game if the story is extended; Some battles can be very intense and thrilling. The chatty female over the radio is pretty funny.
I think this game is well worth the price, however I would not pay anything beyond $20 for it due to the brief campaign and small player pool.

國小二年級人生接觸的第一款電腦遊戲. 當時是父親從萬客隆買回來的, 結果他自己沒玩到, 都是我在玩.
回憶中聽著母親在家唱卡拉OK, 總在唱張清芳的燃燒一瞬間, 而我就在她後面玩軒二. 小時候笨拙的摸索, 都成了現在又買一次這個遊戲的原因. 還記得第一次練到化妖功的感動.
國中時候跟同學合資買實體黃金紀念版, 後來卻因為數次搬家弄丟了. 很感激DOMO讓我有機會再次支持.

希望SOFTSTAR可以也把天使帝國二放到STEAM上面賣!!

長春鎮原野的BGM是最棒的!
如果衝到四塔時等級還不算很高, 趕快去抓鼎精, 拿詛咒戒指, 然後把其他裝備脫掉 ^_^

不太像是軒轅劍, 雖然故事裡有紋錦疾鵬機關人, 但是感覺沒有傳承也沒有靈魂. 沒有練妖壺, 沒有水墨風格, 沒有到新城鎮換武器的小卻幸 (因為三位主角都是一把武器用到結束). 細細地玩, 15小時以內就走完了.

感覺像是簡單版的Dark Souls. 難度上來講也沒有挑戰, 支線任務很少, 主線任務很短, 戰鬥也不需要練功, 順著劇情打就夠你升級輾壓過關了. 基本上所有的補藥都一直沒碰, 一直屯到打莫煌.

故事鋪陳還不錯- 跟一個有點像當年輔子轍的機關人對打, 我差點情懷報表. 有點小激動後續會怎麼發展. 接著滿懷期待一直追著揹著軒轅劍的紋錦, 結果找到她後, 故事急轉直下, 走過一小段軍營打了莫煌, 突然也就結束了. 果然是期待越高失望也就越高.

令我最難受的是, 你ㄊㄇ把大美人紋錦畫成這德行? 在這代明顯發福, 而且變醜. 就連20幾年前楓之舞的2D水準都比這代高.
整體遊戲感覺製作有點草率. 時不時會看到繪圖出錯(rendering glitch). 對話都是陳腔濫調, 看兩句就想跳過.

疾鵬沿途的幹話還是帶回一點情懷, 為這個我還是覺得有點欣慰. 但是$35美元值得這小小的重溫、大大的失望嗎? 我不曉得, 但至少這代比5代好多了. 我很樂意見到軒轅劍系列延續下去, 但我為各種精隨沒有傳承下去感到婉惜. 蔡明宏鲍宏修怎麼會讓這樣的產品出來呢?

也許我比較老派, 但對我來說
最好玩的是 2代
最多情懷又展現歷史素養的 楓之舞
BGM最好聽的是 2代
各方面技術最成熟, 最完整的是 天之痕

我寧可把這$35花在買懷舊(天之痕及以前)BGM, 我肯定會天天repeat聽

My favorite RoTK was 11. This generation incorporates more contents and complications to G11, I'd call it an advancement to RoTK 11.
There is no impressive graphics or visual excitements though like most of the games on the market today. This game features the concentration on strategies and nostalgia.

I cannot speak for players who never played the RoTK franchise but if you're a fan you would most likely appreciate this game.

it good

Great game in all aspects for the first 30 hours. Then, it's the same exact thing over and over...
