[@TheMythologyGuy1]

Hey I'm sorry I got a little too excited and talked over some of the story stuff at the beginning. I was honestly really blown away by the look and feel of everything and I got carried away. I'm really loving the game and I've been so excited about it for so long that I guess I went a little too hard when I finally got to experience it.

[@ItsNotJayJ]

Bro please do it again! It made it 10x interesting for me since I always was obsessed with mythology stories and you always have the answers

[@Ardeleus]

You're good man, I'm here to listen to your reactions and commentary wtih all the lore!

[@ajahnterry9993]

Hi I just thought it was funny how you were talking about everything and missed how they were talking about that everything you keep saying had already happened I'm sure once you restart the game a listen than watch this video you to would have a good laugh

[@ajahnterry9993]

Actually the real funny part was you didn't even talk over the first part but still missed it 😂😅

[@Apus-5700]

The biggest one is Julin-Shen the Tremendous Spirit, a giant vanguard of heaven's army, obeying general Li Jin, he was the first god to challenge wukong last time, but lost almost immediately. Wukong smashed Julin's weapon, but he escaped thanks to General Li's son, Nezha. General Li was so angry about Julin being a deserter, even wanted to have him executed, again Nezha saved him, persuaded his father to spare Julin because even him could not defeat Sun Wukong. In the end, only Erlang (Jade Emperor's nephew) can fight Wukong as equal. PS: Yang Jian, aka Erlang (meaning the second son of house Yang), the Jade Emperor's demigod nephew, has a goddess mother and a mortal father, with a magical third-eye (the Eye of Heaven), keeps a hound named Xiaotian (Sky Howler). He is usually described as a man of gentle and honor, strange for him to act like a dick in the game's intro. Li Nezha, third born of General Li Jin, known for slaying the dragon prince Ao Bin, son of king Ao Guang (who was robbed by Wukong, of the staff and the armor). Nezha appears as a young lad wearing crimson, wielding the Fire-Tip Spear, and can transform into three-head-six-arm. Wukong, Erlang, Nezha are known as the three troublemakers of Heaven. They listen, but they do not take commands. If the Court wants their service, say "please".

[@emilijusgurskas5701]

This Battle is AFTER Journey to the west: -Erlang mentions that monkey was named Buddha -Monkey mentions Zhu bajie -Erlang calls him Victorious Fighting Buddha -The old monkey said that monkey attained Buddhahood.

Everyone else has pointed out that the battle actually takes place after the original journey to the west, but also, there's one pretty big mythology reference that you missed: Erlang cutting open a mountain with his axe is a reference to one of his myths, where he cuts open a mountain to save his mother

[@maxchen9185]

It was Erlang's nephew who took the axe and saved his (the nephew's) mother (Erlang's sister) by splitting a mountain. The story is called The Lotus Lamp. It was animated in the year 2000, check it out, it was a timeless masterpiece.

But this version of the story in JTTW stem from The Lotus Lamp. And Erlang is the villain in that story, the protagonist is Chen Xiang. You are not wrong since it was Journey to the West we are talking about here. Here's the Link: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Magic_Lotus_Lantern As you can see.

Wow, it’s amazing that you fought much more skillfully from the very beginning than many other players - very impressive!

this is after Journey to the west. at start, WUKONG said : my master - saved, the scriptures- sound he want go back to his mountain, live free, but somehow~ they wont let him~ thats why they sent the army to get him. To make sure Er Lang Shen can beat him, someone put his JINGU (the crown) back, to Limit him. then Wukong got killed, split to 6 parts, we are his descendants. try to collect all 6 parts to bring him back~

The big guy at the back was Juling Shen, or Giant Spirit God, the giant river god of the Yellow River. In the original JttW, Juling Shen was the first guy the Heavenly Court sent to subdue Wukong. The subsequent no effort beating he took from Wukong was so embarrassing that the Heavenly Court almost had him executed.

[@903IDFOLEY]

Also as you probably noticed later, the first fight is set after the end of the JttW. Having been trapped under a mountain for 500 years even before the start of the journey, Wukong was well over the "wanting to be a big shot" phase, as we see in the JttW during the few times Wukong was expelled from Sanzang's fellowship, he would simply return to Mount Huaguo to chill with his monkey subjects.

[@decknamen4948]

A funny little detail is when Sun Wukong tells Erlang Shen to "fight him in the woods" in English, in Chinese he tells him to "fight in uncle's woods", which is also from Journey to the West, as Sun Wukong calls Erlang Shen "nephew" all the time in the book 😂

[@ActualUakari]

I love how instantly i'm already learning things

[@garuelaced6106]

You guys are amazing! After watching many KZbinrs' gameplay videos, I astonishedly found that you have a thorough understanding of the novel itself. Although the game's story happens after the original one, it's deeply rooted in the Journey to the West. I hope the following information helps you: - As mentioned on the Wiki, the original novel is "at once a comic adventure story, a humorous satire of Chinese bureaucracy, a source of spiritual insight, and an extended allegory." So, besides the mythology, the story is more about reflecting on ancient Chinese political traditions and Buddhism. - Frankly, Wukong is also a Yaoguai, and he was the only one not initially connected to heaven (Master, Pig, Sand, and even the horse were all descended from either heaven or Linshan); that's why he was the protagonist of the novel and also the reason that he was the only one put on the golden band. - Erlang Shen is also a god with his own story; some weapons he used against Wukong were not described in the original novel but collected from his own mythology. Just want to mention that the huge axe was used to split the mountain to save his imprisoned mother (briefly mentioned in the Journey to the West in the introduction of Erlang Shen). Look forward to seeing more of your amazing plays!

[@Fppiq]

13:58 Alright time for an explanation, spoilers ahead. Ok hear goes In one of the endings for this game, an animated cutscene is shown revealing that unlike the ending of the Original Journey to the West. The Buddha actually left the Golden Headband on Wukong without him knowing, to Wukong he saw it be removed. Why?? Simple: The Heavens never trusted the Great Sage.

[@JayJayM57]

thank you for putting the spoiler tag. with that said that`s a dumb reason. heaven would clearly not trust him but they fall below Budha in the hieratic and Budha took care of Wukong.

[@jonathangoodwin5609]

And in that ending, we don't take the headband again.

[@hisousihou]

Japanese kanji characters were borrowed from Chinese hanzi as a writing system. The two languages share some of the same characters, and the pronunciation of kanji in Japanese is based on ancient Chinese pronunciation. For example, the character name 孫悟空 is written the same in both Chinese and Japanese, but in Chinese, it is pronounced 'Sun Wukong,' while in Japanese, it is pronounced 'Son Goku.'

The story of Black Myth Wukong is that after the story of Journey to the West ended, Heaven once again sent troops to attack Huaguo Mountain. The humanoid god who came was named Yang Jian, also known as Erlang God. In the story of Journey to the West, there is a scene about the riot in the Heavenly Palace. That war was even grander. In the end, Erlang Shen and Sun Wukong fought, but there was no tight band at that time. It was the one on Wukong's head. It was Nezha who used the Qiankun Circle to knock Wukong unconscious. , fell down the mountain, Tathagata used a spell to seal Wukong at the bottom of the mountain
