    I must explain the opening dialogue, the content of eternal life, the English translation is incorrect, here must introduce the background of the story: Wukong once in order to immortality and learn to become immortal. But in heaven he was not accepted by the other gods, so he made war with them and was captured. Later, in order to get parole, he agrees to a task: he must protect a monk on a journey to the West. That gold band on his head used to be a paroled torture device to keep him from escaping. He later completed his mission and became a Buddha and gained eternal life. The video begins with him giving up his position as a Buddha and the ability to live forever, returning to the place of his birth in the hope of living a full life, and frankly pointing out his new understanding of the ability to live forever: all the disasters in this world come from the immortality of the gods.The purpose of the game is not to actually revive Goku, but to find his relics and become the new Goku, immortality is a disaster. It keeps the world from changing and there will be no new Goku. But the gods are always superior, and the common man never has the chance to control his own destiny.

    Pretty much the story takes place after completion of a Journey to the West, Wukong already completed his journey and he decided to forgo his title and return to his mountain with his monkeys but that just prologue we don't actually play Wukong. We just play as the destined one and you'll see who the destined one is it's the last story of Wukong.

    In the Novel, Guangzhi and Guangmou are two monks with the Elder Jinchi, they abettd the Elder to burn Tang Sen (Sun Wukong's Master) to death in his sleep, because the Elder was extremely greedy and wanted to take possess of Tang Sen's kasaya. The Elder had been collecting beautiful kasayas for many years, yet as he saw the one Tang Sen had, he knew he must have it. But because Sun Wukong secretly protected his master by covering him in a fire-repelling cage that he borrowed from other deities, the fire ended up burning the whole Guanyin Temple down, and Elder Jinchi was hit by a fallen pillar and died. That kasaya then was stolen by the Black Bear Guai, who was also in connection with the Elder.

    • @xugao5018
      @xugao5018 4 месяца назад +4

      And why Guangzhi uses a fire blade while Guangmou uses a fan? In Chinese there is a word "煽风点火”, which can be translated into "fan the flames", it means to make a tense situation worse or foster someone's jealousy/hatred against another. Fan and flame, that's what the two monks uses as weapons, and exactly what they did in the JTTW: Fostering the greed of Elder Jinchi.

    The Story line is post Journey to the West. Wukong has attained Buddahood and completed the mission in the JTTW. Wukong wanted to go back to his homeland Faguo Mountain to has a simple life but the Heavenly Celestial Kingdom wanted him to serve the Jade Emperor in the Celestial Kingdom which Wukong refused where the Emperor had send his troops and Erlang God to defeat him, turning him into a stone.
    The main character played in this game is the descendant of Wukong with the mission to gather the 6 relics of Wukong and bring it back to Faguo Mountain which may revive Wukong.
    In this game’s journey the descendant will acquire the skills, magic, philosophy of life as what Wukong did. There’s a Wukong inside everyone’s of us!

    "Journey to the West" is a novel adapted from real characters. More than a thousand years ago, the eminent Chinese monk Xuanzang traveled from China to ancient India alone to seek Buddhist teachings.
    Wukong's abilities came from Taoism, and he eventually converted to Buddhism.
    Erlang Shen is a half-human and half-god. When he was young, he also caused trouble in the Heavenly Palace and used an ax to split a mountain to save his mother.
    A character named Nezha also appears in the game. He used to cause trouble in Heavenly Palace.
    Among the five giants who appeared at the beginning, the middle one was the giant spirit god, and the four in front were the four generals of the demon clan. The four generals of the Demon Clan are the subordinates of Nezha’s father.

    Ok imma try to give as most context as I can:
    Long time ago there’s was a rock born from heaven sitting in a mountain, one day a monkey was born out of it, he latter founds a group of monkeys and he becomes their king later the monkey releases that he’s not immortal so he goes in a journey to be imortal, in the way he learns tricks from a teacher in a town, that gives him abilities to transform and duplicate ect, (this is where he gets the name of Sun wukong) until one day Wukong broke his teacher promise of not ever using his abilities to be famous, so the teacher kicks him out, wukong decides to continue his journey of power and immortality, he keep fighting demons and exploring until he founds a palace underwater, he goes in and ask for a weapon he almost didn’t found one until the king gave wukong the magic staff, but wukong wanted armor too so the king, scared called other palaces, they came thinking they were going to fight until the king told them to not engage “he’s too strong,” so they all agree and give wukong pieces of armor, after wukong leaves the kings tells what happens to the gods of heaven and “hell” and they obviously get pissed off so hell takes wukong there, wukong founds a type of temple that has a book, on that books there’s the names of every creatures so he founds his name and the names of his family’s and cross them, this gives wukong 1 point of imortality, after this he goes back to his family but heaven not trusting wukong tells him to come to heaven, wukong agrees, the gods give wukong the job of a stable man, for wukong he thought this was amazing but in reality this was the worst rank on heaven, wukong gets super pissed and leaves, he gets back home and to wukong it’s been just a few months but for his family it’s been years, so they throw a party, the gods (trying to control Wukong) tells wukong to come back that they have a higher rank job to give to Wukong, wukong again agrees and goes, the job is basically to protect a tree, that tree has the peaches of immortality, and it’s wukong job to protect it, wukong agrees and protects the tree until one day a group of ladies come to the tree, asking wukong for a few peaches, wukong ask why and they tell him that the gods are having a party and he is not invited, after the ladies leave Wukong gets super pissed to he eats all of the peaches, this makes him immortal by a bunch of times then he goes to the party (which it haven’t started) and drinks the kings wine of immortality he also goes to the kitchen and eats a bunch of pill of immortality he founds, after he sobers up he relies in the amount of problems he is in so he runs away back to his family, the gods of heaven extremely pissed wants to kill Wukong so Wukong and a group of soldiers that he has goes and fights a bunch of gods he ends up wining so the king had to call Buddha, a then buddha puts in a prison for 500 yrs. One day a monk named Tang Sanzang was “talking to Buddha” aperently there was a war going on and they had to stop it, Buddha gives the monk Tang Sanzang a bunch of scriptures, if someone ever read those scriptures they would be come peaceful no matter what, but there’s was a problem he had to go to the west and a bunch of demons wants to kill Tang Sanzang because they believe they will be immortal if they do this, so Buddha gives Tang Sanzang a group of body guards first (Sun Wukong) then a god that haves been kicked from heaven then cursed to turned into a half human half pig (Zhu Bajie), and a cursed half human half fish (Sha Wujing) before they left Buddha put on them a golden headband, this would help Tang Sanzang so if they tried something the golden headband would squeeze causing a lot of pain. this formed the trio that would help Tang Sanzang through the journey to the west. (I’m going to skip ahead because I would be texting this all day) when they finally get to the west the trio are finally set free and found peace, this is where black myth wukong kicks in, after wukong comes back to his family for some reason the gods of heaven started killing wukongs family, this pisses a lot wukong so he goes amd tries to fight them but loses, a few centuries later a recantation of sun wukong is born called the destined one, his job is to find all wukong artifacts to posibly revive him. This took ages to type, sorry if I was wrong in some stuff (I’m new to jurney to the west) I would appreciate if you found something wrong to tell me since I’m also learning, also sorry if my English isn’t perfect I’m still learning, I had to skip a loooot of stuff from journey to the west because the book is really really long, but I really recommend it, also I really recommend this game, I stared playing and it’s amazing.

    Not sure what I’ve seen is true but looking through comment sections of Black Myth playthroughs is that there’s an extra layer of “difficulty” spikes that happen with boss fights (not sure if they all have them) it’s that depending on how good and fast your first attempt at a fight is the boss activates a “second phase” that spikes there damage, attack speed and increases damage resistance but doesn’t activate if you lose your first attempt or just barley beat the boss

      I had a second phase while fighting the snake-like yaoguai in the lake. It was my second attempt but I beat him really fast and it activates the second phase.

      真相是: 游戏里某些boss的二阶段取决于玩家的dps 在一定的时间里对boss造成足够的伤害,boss就会进入二阶段(更强 更硬 更大)。反而言之如果你打到boss的时间太长,boss到死都不会开启二阶段。

    The reason why a masterpiece is a masterpiece is that it can make readers have different feelings after reading it. As the saying goes, everyone has a different face. You can understand its bizarre world by reading it for the first time, and then appreciate the criticism of the current social situation in the book. Then, you can savor it carefully and reflect your own current situation, understand the essence of life, and give people the motivation or inspiration to move forward. With the growth of experience, you can understand that Journey to the West is not about the story of the four masters and apprentices going to the West to worship Buddha and seek scriptures, but the process of self-cultivation to let go of greed, anger, ignorance, hatred, love, evil, and desire. But at the end of life, there will be an understanding of life, just like everyone will have a different interpretation of Journey to the West. Here we can quote a Buddhist saying, "There is no Bodhi tree, and the bright mirror is not a stand. There is nothing at all, so where can dust be raised?"

    Also idk if anyone knew this funny detail but its also very likely that Wukong by nature of being a stone monkey (he hatched from a stone egg) was probably already immortal. He had lived up on flower fruit mountain with other monkeys for hundreds of years before he began his journey off the mountain. I have always found it funny that he likely didn't need to go through all those hurdles to attain immortality because he probably always was immortal.

      Actually, Lu bu is the original style of Armor and headwear , coz his war armor style is so famous in 2nd century AD , Eastern Han dynasty, when Journey to the west book published in 16th century, writer, got inspired Wukong from wushiqi from traditional folklore, he combined Wukong with Famous Lu Bu style and Wukong became so much popular again , wushiqi is the southern Chinese monkey monster god and mostly from Chu era, later, when dragon ball writer Toriyama, wrote dragon ball inspired by Wukong, and even Goku is in Japan name for Sun Wukong, and yeah Wukong is original Sun Goku ,
      So chronologically, Wukong style and features are inspired from Lu bu and Go ku is directly inspired from Wukong.

    It’s like the Three kingdoms era, the story type, legend that the renowned generals had still lives on to this day in some areas like Guan Yu for example… or my personal favourite to ponder what ifs about, is the legend of Lubu to be known by all and feared by many in a time where its swords shields etc is pure God tier stuff to imagine someone of that skill level and prowess is hard…. Sucks we western and EU people got nothing even close to that level of historical lore and story’s, imo anyways.

    Jev there is a secret behind the waterfall you just need to make some progress in chapter 2 to get a key item then back track to the waterfall. There’s a wall with statues carved in it that you need to break with a VERY heavy attack after fighting an optional boss. You’ll know the wall when you see it. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DOING THIS! You won’t be disappointed. Also when you fight the father and son next chapter don’t kill the father only kill the son.
