[@almontaseralazri3107]

What song? The one in animation?

[@MenrvaS]

@@HobiAI The song is called 'Listen Not' The song is about a man and a woman who found true love with each other. However, the man who doesn't want to see his love suffers because him and wants her to move on in her next life, but the woman insists that she wants to be with him despite all the suffering and wants to meet him again the the next life. The context is that Bajie was cursed to suffer a thousand lifetimes of heartbreak. He cannot have a family or love or even acknowledge them or a calamity would take his life or his love's life. The animation shows us that both of them meet each other for several lifetimes now and it never ends well. Bajie truly loves the Spider that he is willing to let her go to protect her, but the Spider truly loves Bajie that she is willing to suffer alongside him.

Also, the youngest daughter of the Granny Spider is actually their daughter as if you look closely, her ears are bigger than her sisters. Also, the 4th sister, the goth one, was previously wanted to get married with another reincarnation of Wukong (the other Destined One) but it failed and that's the reason why she helped the MC a lot. Also, her clothes look different than her sisters and her makeup has tear drop as part as her grief I guess. Apparently, she turned to a pill by the court if you finish all of the side quests of tearing the paper as if you look at the cutscene when Granny Spider died, she wasn't there, mourning with her sisters.

[@KangZiJing]

@@theElemDragon A lot of players are sort of interpreting him as a morally bad character though, if you analyze the story (just pointing out because I found it interesting)

[@theElemDragon]

@@KangZiJing I mean... Not entirely surprising. Zhu Bajie is essentially a god of lust (patron saint of masseurs, prostitutes, etc...). I just wish there was more of that music in more than just that chapter.

[@KangZiJing]

@@theElemDragon Well technically Zhu Bajie in the novel was a celestial deity who got punished for having the worldly desire of lust/romance (in Chinese the literal translation is to have his mortal heart moved) did not really ascend into Buddhahood (or become a bodhisattva or arhat) upon retrieving the scriptures, so I don't think he would be a pillion of "morality" as much as say a boddhisatva, which Lingji (the headless guy) is. Buddhahood is supposed to sort of transcend humanity and universal existence, and if there was a power ranking, they are supposed to top the charts. In the novels and the TV adaptations, Rulai (Syakamuni/Siddharta/The Buddha) and Boddhisattva Guanyin are kind of the most powerful/untouchable figures. Not sure if you already know this, but in Chapter 2, the people were originally Buddhist, but because they stopped worshipping as much because of the King (the rat king), they got punished by getting terrorized by Fuban (the giant beetle). Yellow Robed Sage saved them while passing by one day, and the kingdom started worshipping rats (Yellow Robed Sage is actually not a rat in the novel I believe), which angered whichever buddhism entity/figure was overlooking the area, and they transformed all the humans into rats. I believe the character in question was heavily hinted to be the bodhisattva Lingji. The story also ties back to the question Lingji asks at the end of the chapter as well as the ending cutscene, basically if all "yao guais" are born evil and all "buddhas" are born good, or rather if good (or "morality") is inherent to the circumstances of one's birth.

[@musical.unicorn]

@@theElemDragon not the god of lust, but a deity who manages the celestial waterways. in the original novel, he was cast down from the heavenly realm for sexual harassment at the workplace. so in some ways this game's take is very different. All characters in the novel is supposed to be flawed: Wukong is impulsive and proud, Bajie is lazy and gluttonous, Wujing is passive, and Sanzang or JinChanzi in his past life, is too trusting. These characters slowly grow from these flaws throughout their journey.

In the real ending, The MC will reject the headband and he will gain Wukong's memories and also get his freedom without any pressure from The Celestial Court. Also, turns out that Erlang and Wukong pretended to fight in the beginning as they both are tired to the Court. Erlang wants peace and Wukong wants freedom.

This game is the best reminder in recent years that great games still aren't for everyone. I put it down after a few days. Graphics were good, combat was fine, but I've also realized I'm older than I used to be and what I need from games has changed. There were too many bosses, and if my limited time each night to play a game (1-2 hours at most) I could either potentially some the whole time failing to defeat one boss, or spend it grinding in fairly small, repetitive areas.

This game is really important for its message. Not only return to Monkey. But return to stick! Every weapon out there is either a stick, a rock, or a stick that shoots small rocks!

The best part of this game is actually the ending if you really get what the game trying to express. That's something only people grow up in mainland China can relate. Oh my god this is such a good game.

They should make a bonus concord trailer, do a 30 second intro, and then have the last 5 minutes just be a blank screen.

The visuals and stories are 10/10. The gameplay is just 5/10. The hit boxes on some of the bosses make no sense. You can stand directly in front of someone, and when you attack, you'll swing completely away from your target. There's no blocking, only dodging. I'm a casual gamer and would not recommend this game to anyone who doesn't like wasting their time fighting the same boss 50 times. It's not enjoyable, and you can't change the difficulty level. Waste of money for me, but I can see why hardcore gamers would like it.

Just so that everyone knows, every map in this game actually existed in real life. The company didn't have much time or money to recreate maps, so they actually went to 3D scan all these locations from various locations in China and put them in a game... which is why there are so many "invisible walls".

Wukong is ok enough as a first project from a new studio that no one knows about, but it has a regrettable amount of bad decisions. The developers prioritized aesthetics over function, resulting in a lot of things contradicting each other. I'll talk about several flaws in more detail: * The Environment Design does not correspond to what should be accessed in the gameplay. To remedy this, they abused the invisible wall. It gets to a point where it looks like you are in a glass corridor inside an open world. There is usually no indication that differentiates the path that should be followed and the one with an invisible wall,this greatly compromises exploration. One of the most ridiculous parts was the rolling ball part in Chapter 5. You need to hide in the gaps when the ball comes, but many of these are covered by an invisible wall. Later on, you discover that all that bullshit with the ball was unnecessary if there weren't those bizarre invisible walls. The monkey would reach the objective just by taking a few more steps to the right. * In the long run, gear progression is all flawed. Most of your defense and damage stats come from gear, and as enemies get stronger, you'll have to level them up. When you upgrade a weapon, the effect changes to one that has nothing to do with the previous one. To maintain some synergy with the weapon's effect, you want to create another set, but the materials for armor are limited. Even the latest upgrades have their effect quickly outdated, for example: The long staff of the storm is the last staff upgrade, it can only be created halfway through the game in NG+ after numerous secret bosses. Its effect is that it inflicts shock on itself when you charge the heavy attack, but all attacks made in the shocked state inflict lightning damage. The problem is that both the long armor that increases lightning damage and the anti-curse talents quickly get rid of the shocked state. There comes a point in the game where your resistance is so high that your curse bar won't fill up, and you're unable to be cursed, and the final weapon upgrade becomes useless. It's strange then that you can craft it so late. * It's an original story that relies heavily on your familiarity with the novel. Each character has only a story fragment associated with them in the diary that would help give you an idea of ​​who they are, but many are blank in other languages and with only an apology note from the dev. Many lines are also untranslated. The predestined one is mute, which is bizarre given how foul-mouthed the monkey king is. For most of the game I didn't feel like I was playing as the Monkey King. * There are 3 stances, but only the heavy attack changes. There is no action queue and the parry system is inadequate. You can only parry during combos, but the perfect time is not enough. The animations have to match, but the difference in rhythm between your attacks and the enemies' makes this rare. The hitbox issues are also a pain, especially for those with thin legs like this one. There are many glitched attacks, I lost count of the number of times I got stuck when attacking and had to restart the game. Some attacks from the trailer were removed because they bugged the game. I know because I managed to accidentally use some in the Wukong form, which resulted in my weapon disappearing. * Some achievements require all items, but some are extremely luck dependent. There are items that are super rare drops when harvesting certain plants, the problem is that the plant takes 30 minutes to respawn. *
