Abicim fromsoft değilseniz oyunlarınızı bu kadar yapay zorlaştırmayın. Oyunu neresinden tutsam elimde kalıyor. Haritası desen her taraf illüzyon duvar dolu çıkılabilecek bir sürü nokta görünüyor fakat hiçbirine ulaşamıyorum ha oyun loot odaklı bi oyun olmasa keşfetmeye dair hiçbir şey sunmasa tercih ettiğin şeyi anlayacağım fakat yok yani. Oyunun 2. chapter'ında kumda kayarak almamız gereken bir item var oyununda çift zıplama mekaniği yok ve ben internetten o itemin nasıl alınacağına bakmasam 40 yıl düşüneyim r2 ile oraya zıpkayıp çıkabileceğim aklıma gelmez, bunu oyuncuya söylemiyorsun. Boss tasarımları desen zor değil sadece sinir bozucu chapter chapter ilerliyosun hiçbir chapter'da hah tamam ben çok güçlendimi hissedemedim düşmanların çok dengesiz. Kamera konumlandırman desen abi senin 14123452 tane bossun olan oyunda devasa diyebileceğim boss sayısı bir elin parmağını geçmez nasıl avuç içi kadar yarasa saldırırken kamera açısı sapıtabiliyor ya? Mitolojin desen ilgi çekici değil, anlattığın hikaye desen eli yüzü düzgün bi hikaye de anlatmıyosun. E tüm oyun boyunca güzel yaptığın bi aksiyonun var diye de kusura bakma ben senin o saçma sapan yapay zorluğuna artık katlanamayacağım. İlk aldığım zaman çok hevesle başlamıştım fakat RE9 çıkışından dolayı ertelemek durumunda kalmıştım tekrar başlayım bitireyim kütüphanemde öylece yatmasın dedim fakat buraya kadarmış. Chapter 4 sonunda bu saçmalık oyunu bırakıyorum... Umarım ki yeni çıkacak olan Black Myth Zhonk Kui iyi olur...

Fantastic graphics, but not really my style and the game itself is just a boss rush with little else engaging.

In my opinion, Black Myth: Wukong is the best Souls-like ever made, although I wouldn’t strictly define it as a Souls-like. It’s more of an action RPG, but regardless of the genre, it’s an incredible game. Considering that Game Science was a relatively new studio and this was their first major game, what they managed to create is genuinely impressive. You can notice some of the limitations that come with being a first-time developer, especially in certain aspects where the game feels less polished. For example, there are quite a lot of invisible walls and some small details that could have been handled better. These are understandable flaws, especially considering the studio’s background and the fact that the Chinese game industry is still relatively young compared to some of the more established gaming markets. However, they more than make up for these shortcomings in other areas. The gameplay is fantastic, the story is beautiful, and what I appreciated the most is how different and unpredictable the setting feels. It introduces you to a culture and mythology that may be completely unfamiliar to many Western players, making the experience feel genuinely fresh and unique. I absolutely loved it, and I can’t wait to see what Game Science does with the next Black Myth chapter.
