I love this mechanic. If ur good then you get a better fight, if ur bad then no problem you just move on from the boss.

[@dametreuspppp8734]

So after I finally figure out how to not get my ass kicked for 101 times, then u change it up to kick it for 102😂😂😂 sign me up I'll jump out window later

[@ToniaHan]

and rewards are different, its cool in my opinion

[@trae6598]

I love this idea cause it makes replay value a lot higher

[@funmylife9248]

Absolutely 💯

[@DonneyLiu]

yeah，players may trigger more hidden second phases in the second play through

[@ninasten7312]

I think it's great, it's acts as both a reward and a hidden difficulty setting. Very neat. Also can make further playthroughs and NG+ more interesting.

[@Cyberfox009]

I believe that there might be a mechanic where you only get certain awards such as cosmetics only after you manage to defeat the second phase of some bosses

[@brettpearce8843]

True

[@jermainejones1560]

The creators of the black myth should colibe with the TMNT creators for a TMNT remake game😎

And darksiders

[@IsThisThePrizeIveWaitedFor]

This is my most anticipated game since forever. I reminds me of the days when a new console would come out and you get to play a next gen game and you are blown away by how much better it looks. Even tho the PS5 has been out for a while now, I don’t think we’ve gotten anything that looks next gen in a long time. Until Wukong. Will be a day 1 for me.

[@funmylife9248]

💯

[@jaytea1453]

The Surge had something similar. If you beat a boss a certain way, you get an upgraded reward item.

[@funmylife9248]

Ah, I'll have to play that and its sequel. I heard especially the sequel was quite good

[@solomonmcneil]

I believe that this new video game will have secrets bosses to locate and discover find and defeat like seriko shadows die twice

[@MusicMan-y]

Yeah bro, two hidden bosses have already been shown in the previous one level trial, and if you don't carefully search for ways, you may miss them, so the playability of this game should be very high🤩

[@weiwang3989]

Even if you couldnt get into the 2nd phase at the first time, you can come back later after you get more higher level skills&equipments. That would be easier.

[@PanLi-of7ru]

Passing the first stage will reward you with a weapon. After passing the second stage, you will be rewarded with clothes and other accessories (the appearance has certain characteristics of the boss). Pass the third stage and obtain the achievement of completely killing the boss.

[@murderface5773]

I think it is a unique concept. The only thing I don't like is if I am having a bad round and want to fight the 2nd phase, will I bypass it by playing slopy against the first phase and getting my shit together when it is too late? Will I know it is too late, so I can die to try again? Either way, I can see myself playing this game multiple times just to see if I missed out on something.

[@WillS724]

Weird to me that gamers are baffled that Wu Kong is NOT like EVERY OTHER souls like game. And are uneasy about new game mechanics

[@WhatchaGot2Say]

Why not just have difficulty options?

[@RT-xj3of]

This sounds fucking dope and frustrating all the same lol I’ll know I really suck if I never get a second phase when I get this 😅😂

[@kenshin391]

I'm gonna continue being skeptical until I see a live stream showing there's more enemies to fight to warrant that 160 enemy rumor because I've only seen 3 to 4 enemies and then pure boss fight's. 👀 I'm just really shocked that they didn't think to make this game more explorable because it's literally *WUKONG* he should be parkouring all over the place. I mean he's a damn monkey lol. 🤷🏼‍♂ 👀

[@userxxx-mv4bm]

Kenshin? a fan of Japanese games. Lol

[@SolidSL510]

Will it be on Xbox?

[@joe-nb4du]

im tryin not to hype myself about this game aka Cyberpunk 2077 flashbacks its a wise thing to do to not pre order the game id suggest wait a week or so to see what people are saying if its good buy it if not u save your money

[@MundoGeeky]

I have more than 500hours on GoW2018 just because I kept fighting Queen Valkyrie 😅 But I feel like BMW Wukong doesn't even talk, I guess the story won't be good even though we know the lore of Wukong they probably didn't do a good job on this part of a game.

[@JasperDsp]

This dude is always a downer without knowing any real detail.

[@H4554Nx]

Story better be good idc about being a sweaty boss fighter

[@tyler2102]

So you don’t care about the gameplay ? Very weird stance to take on a game.

[@yako2333]

Yeah to be fair the gameplay is the selling point in almost every game.

[@H4554Nx]

@@tyler2102 GamePlay and story idc for souls like sweatfest 😁

[@josiahh8158]

​@@H4554Nx souls games aren't about the "sweat" it's about the mindset. The idea that any challenge can be overcome with persistence. The game not only pushes your physical gaming skills but more so your mental. Forces you to think and be creative to overcome certain challenges. Overall they teach valuable lessons that can be used in real life as well. Therapists recommend them, they are good for mental health. Patience + Persistence = Power The games aren't for everyone but saying they are just "sweatfests" is completely wrong. Rarely ever is it actually about the bragging rights, more about what you learnt along the way.

[@10-OSwords]

Poison swamp is exactly when I SOLD Bloodborne...No longer interested in this game where you only get ONE weapon anyway, sounding worse & worse.

[@FazePlug177]

ok

[@Ludwig_Accursed]

-NG+ at launch -Multiple endings -Around 160+ enemy types -80+ bosses MAN IT'S OMEGA HYPE

and its a chinese studio , not a western one who is greedy for money I'm so excited ngl

[@ayeitzjacobb]

SO HYPE MAN, LEVEL DESIGN, FREQUENT BOSSES, ONE DIFFICULTY, A STRONG FOCUS ON NARRATIVE AND NOT EXCESSIVE OPEN EXPLORING. this game seems to good to be true.

[@funmylife9248]

🔥🔥🔥

[@monophthalmus3254]

Yes. I am furiously managing my expectations. I hope it will live up to the hype.

[@ayeitzjacobb]

the mechanic seems fantastic, while players might be thrown off by it, it can be very good for going for a platinum in other playthroughs if you adapt and get better and better. it offers more and more of a challenge and is a really good way to balance the game with the single difficulty honestly.

[@liamlane1165]

I'm more than happy for this new Boss Mechanic... as I often over level for the boss fights and would love to see this in action.

[@funmylife9248]

Really curious to see how it all pans out!

[@kappakai78]

Given there’s no difficulty level, this kind of makes sense. If you’re ostensibly better, you get more of a challenge and, presumably, better rewards??

[@MusicMan-y]

I think there will be rewards that do not disrupt the game, such as special titles or achievements, which I am looking forward to

[@kappakai78]

@@MusicMan-y I’d be ok with that. Costumes maybe, given how good the design looks to be.

[@lrgpanda9037]

Something like this is to good to be tru.maybe a couple will actually do this i can see or all will do this and but itll be minor changes to the fight.

[@jamiewatts333]

Another issue with dynamic challenge is that repeated failure is a natural part of skill development - in other words, there's no point in having a threshold that allows you to pass before you've even had a chance to master it. However, I suppose this feature also adds a small degree of replayability for those who've perfected bosses on their first playthrough; players can re-experience the game with new boss phases. It doesn't matter though - regardless of anything, this is a piece of art I want to experience. For what it's worth, I think the original Resident Evil 4 had a hidden dynamic difficulty - depending on your skill, it would change small aspects of the game.

[@aliomar2912]

What do you mean?

[@funmylife9248]

That's a solid point! Jog my memory about the OG RE4 dynamic difficulty... which areas of the game do you think received dynamic difficulty?

[@jamiewatts333]

@@funmylife9248 'Resident Evil 4 also features a hidden dynamic difficulty, if the player is accurate and takes only a few hits, the enemies will automatically become more aggressive and deal more damage, but if the player is missing a lot of shots or getting hit too many times and dying, the enemies will become more passive, deal less damage and sometimes not even spawn. One example for this is during the gondola area in the village, if Leon takes enough hits at this part, the two archers will not spawn at the water room. This dynamic difficulty is turned off in Professional modes and the enemies are on a set aggressive manner that cannot be changed.' Copied and pasted from RE4 Wiki.

[@jamiewatts333]

@@funmylife9248 As far as I can see, KZbin wouldn't let me copy/paste information from the Resident Evil Wiki, but you can find it on there.

[@ZzZzWillow]

The mechanics I think will work very well thinking it will keep the momentum of the game and I feel like people won’t die as much like they say in souls like games. And feel so called stuck on a boss I can only imagine people having a lot of trouble with a few bosses. Like me for example I’m just gonna have a hard time on the big spider boss battles if there is more than one. Because I’m terrified of spiders.😂

[@MusicMan-y]

Regarding the Spider Boss, this is a classic plot in Journey to the West, where people call them "Spider Spirits". Of course, there won't be many of them, only that part. However, this part of the plot will definitely move many people. Trust me bro, I can't wait to play anymore.🤩

[@ZzZzWillow]

There was already verification a while back with one of the bosses, the Macaque Chief, which has a "winged" second phase that happens only if you get him down to 50% health within a certain time frame.

[@TheNuthouseKustomShopThe-pb8dl]

Looking forward to trying this game.

[@kclsevsw]

I can see players hating it. Let's say you get a unique reward from defeating a boss who's transitioned into their 2nd phase. If someone gets locked out of said reward they're gonna be upset cause how were they supposed to know obtaining a unique reward was on the table. There are players that don't want the trials and tribulations that come with the difficulty of obtaining unique rewards but still want the unique rewards. Personally I'm in love with 2nd phase boss fights.

[@jebadiah78]

It's already been stated that the game will not have a difficulty setting. This could be how they are putting in the "Hard mode".

[@anonv2030]

Its for NG+. Upgraded you can experience the game again but different! Its awesome!

[@thatpersoneveryoneknowsbut7533]

How could anyone have a problem with this sounds good to me im uae to more than 1 phase anyway all that Ninja Gaiden and Seikiro 😂

[@brandtmiles2373]

It's just dynamic difficulty. Not as complicated as ppl are making it out to be, lol

[@brettpearce8843]

This was knew like a year or so ago with the winged ice boss. Can't remember the original leak but was a long time ago known.

[@PaizRashidi]

It not soul like right?..it similiar same as old god of war games i think

[@teddyscave6026]

New god of war games*

[@teddyscave6026]

More so focused on more drawn out and challenging encounters.

[@teddyscave6026]

Rather than the old versions of God of war where it was more built around quick hack and slash encounters that can be dealt with in 20 seconds

[@V-95K]

Actually it’s interesting 🤔 finally something new and fresh. But by the looks of it people are afraid of something new, especially those sweaty asses

[@funmylife9248]

🤣

[@aladdinsalih7617]

Can’t wait really hyped for this game, one thing though how are we supposed to level (up/ farm) if it’s a boss rush with small levels in between? Especially in the beginning of the game

[@funmylife9248]

There are shrines that act like bonfires from the soulslike games. Here, the enemies will respawn, so it's likely you can just grind the standard enemies out if you wish

I hope we candofront flip jumps just for fun like in sly cooper

So far there’s only one boss that has this mechanic. Also who cares if players make the game easier by not beating it fast???

[@funmylife9248]

@@cr6262 For real. Anything with SOME similarities to souls games is considered one these days

[@nathananderson6944]

The point I was trying to make is that for the longest time now, everyone thinks the only way to make a game challenging is to have your attacks do little damage while enemies can wreck you instantly. And making a mechanic for 2 phases for some enemies determined by how long the 1 phase takes to beat is stupid.....(If) The intention was to cater to both sides? (Casual/noobs and challenge seeker/pros) At that point just put in a difficulty setting. Like how can you honestly say, we made the game a certain difficulty so that everyone has the same experience but then turn around and this one guy didn't have a 2nd phase with the mini boss but I did.

[@aliomar2912]

It feels more about a boss fight only. No news on the story. I might not get this.
