Who? Where? I’ve never even heard of this game.
It was an IGN article from last November.
I watch a lot of game related stuff so I remember when it was first revealed before the PS5 and Xbox Series even came out.

Also plenty of the reviews mention the “controversy” in one way or another.
 
Indiana Jones coming to PS5. I’m so happy I didn’t buy an Xbox as my second console and went with the Steam Deck instead lol.
I will now wait to see if there’s a port from Panic Button for the Switch 2. If not I’ll have to hope this is compatible with the Deck. If not again, at least I’ll still have my nice portable with easy emulation capability.

Black Myth Wukong is a roaring success despite journalists best efforts just like last year with Hogwarts Legacy.

I don’t have interest in the game myself but I’m loving this all the same.
JK is a horrible person today that would probably hate herself if her past self knew what her current self was. Hogwarts legacy success is not an endorsement of her as a person, it is an endorsement of the brand. Harry Potter is bigger than JK can try to take it from everyone with her hate. Most all of the brand was established before JK was a Twitter addict transphobic pos.

What best efforts.
This game is about 80 percent Chinese players and 7 percent US while being made by a Chinese studio and some people want to assign American media critics as taking some sort of L as to the success of the game against their criticisms as a way to validate their minority opinions.

If that 7% is correct then 700,000 copies in a few days isn’t bad at all for a foreign game from a new studio to the US.

The game has sold 10,000,000 total copies btw.

Oof. Can’t say I’m surprised though. People are getting sick of unoriginal trend chasing and this game was clearly attempting to rip off GotG and Overwatch since it’s apparently been in development for 8 years. It’s going to be glorious to see this game get curb stomped by AstroBot which was announced at the same exact event and got a much better reception. I hope that one comes to the Steam Deck eventually. Looks fun.

Also this is another win for gamers that are sick of so many live services being pushed.

I never like to see a game fail, peoples livelihood are on stake and no one sets out to make a bad game. As far as this type of games go I heard the gameplay is solid but the rest is lacking originality.
I have no love for MP/GAAS games but I pre-ordered Astro bot as the free Astro Bot game that came with the PS5 is a hoot. Not sure if this Nintendo like game is deemed a PC contender for the future but who knows, I for sure am looking forward to play it.
PlayStation's effort in MP games looks like the failed rehash from PS3 and fortunately they steered away from that quickly to continue making the single player games that I love.
