For anyone wondering, Wukong has pretty much always sounded like this. Don’t put your expectations of some deep ass Kratos-like voice on him. He was born a playful mischievous monkey.
some little background story about the game intro characters. Start with sun wu kong. A monkey born from a rock, and the rock was one the materials which is used by another very very very ancient chinese god to fix the hole of the sky. Sun wu kong lived with other monkey in the mountian for a while and realise he need immotality to continue his happy free life. So he went a way to find a teacher to teach him that. Eventually he found the teacher and learnt his immotality and other skills. After that he returned and rob the dragon lord of east china sea and get the stick/staff. The weapon Sun wu kong use is used to be called the sea stablizer. It weighted 6750 kg and can transform to any size and any lenght. Sun Wu Kong normmally shrink the stick and hide it in his ear. The robbery caused a big chaos in the sea and pissed off the gods and finally turn them into war. The monkey was so powerful and no god and fight with him except the guy with 3 eyes. Finally the Sun Wu Kong was defeated by Buddha and burried under the mountain for 500 years as punishment until Tang San Zang which is his master(ShiFu) released him and start the journey to the west. After the journey to the west, Sun Wu Kong was granted The victorious fighting buddha. The guy with 3 eyes : One of the most powerful fighter among gods. He used to use an Axe to destory a mountian to save his mother who is prisoned under it. During the war between Sun Wu Kong and the gods, he is the only one beat the monkey in combat. His pet ( the black dog) also refferd as The moon eater. 4 giants: The four gate keepers of the gods realm. They were defeated by Sun Wu Kong once before during the war. The biggest giant: The god which is known by his size. Looks strong but pretty weak in the book of Journey to the west. The ring on Sun Wu Kong 's head : It is given by Guan Yin to Tang San Zang to decipline sun wu kong at the beginning of the journey to the west. When Tang San Zang cast a spell the ring will shrink. After the journey to the west the ring was released and taken back by Buddha. The pig: One of the other 3 companies in the journey to the west. Used to be a god but got kicked out because he break the law. When he become mortal his soul accidently processd into a pig which cause him has a pig head and human body. In the book of Journey to the west he was often known as lazy, greedy, easy to give up, big mouth. All those stories may not be 100% accurate but most of them are commonly know in China. Hope this can help you guys understand the story.
it's more complicated than that, the story is mocking the feudatory dynasty rulers who afraid of the people who could rebel against them, the Celestial Court is the ruler, Son Wukong is the one who disobey
Always find it hilarious when people see Wukong on the cloud and say it references dragon ball Z. Yet Journey to the west where Wukong first appeared was written in the 16th century. It's dragon ball z (written in the 20th century) that references Wukong

Dude trust me if u can understand Chinese the journey to the west will be the most unforgettable classic chinese mythology book in ur life. I bet that every Chinese has read it in life . Sun Wukong has been my role model since I was a kid.
Ironically to those saying references to Goku from DBZ, Sun Wukong’s name in Japanese is literally Son Goku. Goku from DBZ and Son the Four Tail from Naruto are literally based of Sun Wukong. Heck, there’s even a Son Goku in Highschool DxD since there are pantheons there as well
a lot of Asia myth may have the same origin too, traveling around between India, China and finally reach Japan, some Japanese fiction even depict some of the demon bring directly migrate from China.
@@mickbotcast plus the fact that Japan and Korea literally originated from China before they decided to split and modify their Chinese based cultures and languages
Yeah. He crossed his name out of the book of the dead and he stole the immortal peaches. With his staff, Ruyi Jingu Bang, he's impossible to defeat. Very few can beat him.
Didn't he even gone as far as to have 6 more immortality on top of his pre existing immortality? Wukong in myth is legit so overpowered for a non-omniponent character. I think there's a reason why characters inspired by him tend to be on the OP side. Take Son Goku from Dragon Ball for example.
@@ashtonderojas821 he was tricked to put it on, Guanyin, the goddress of mercy gave the gold magical band to the monk, Tang Sanzang or Tripitaka to control Wukong for his rebellious
You're right, I'll add that after completing the scripture collection, the Buddha took off Wukong's gold band and finally set him free. In the game, we saw that it actually seemed to be still there，The game adaptation is very meaningful
Journey to the West: It is also often used as a metaphor in management science. As the supervisor, Tang Sanzang also has three employee types with different abilities and personalities. Sun Wukong: Excellent Almighty. Which means that his work ability and efficiency are first-class, but because his ability is much higher than that of his supervisor, he is often not favored by his supervisor. Zhu Bajie: the sweet-tongued type. Although his ability is average, his eloquence is often appreciated by his supervisor. Sha Wujing: He is weak in ability and does not understand the art of speaking. He is a hard-working type.
Dude fr. I don't know if people would be able to keep with all the realms, tho. Actually, creating cultivation games in the future is part of my To Do List.
That’s what we’ve been waiting all the time but the Chinese gaming market in the past is all about pay to win mmorpg and stuff like that. Reference: Tencent Netease… those big companies. But after black myth, I guess it should help
The golden hoop, which is given to Tangseng(Tang Monk) by Buddha, to subdue Wukong to protect him during the journey. It has a spell and when Tangseng chant it, will get tighten and make Wukong headache. According to the novel, after Wukong finished the journey, Buddha already removed the golden hoop and give Wukong freedom. But here in the opening intro, Wukong is definitely cheated by Buddha.
Unfortunately the english dub doesn't really make alot of sense if compared to the chinese dub in which which he actually talks about how he has done his duty by protecting tripitaka on his journey and only wanted a life of freedom to live in Huaguo mountain away from the heavenly court afterwards, yet the heavenly court came after him with their army and killed his compatriots. also side note relevant to the story is that he actually fought everyone in the heavenly court before the journey and won and was unparalleled until buddha himself almighty smack him into the base of the mountain. haha
我很慶幸身為中國人可以直接聽到原本的配音。還有中文發音的模型口型，太感動了。 I'm glad that as a Chinese I can hear the original dubbing directly. There are also model mouth shapes for Chinese pronunciation, which is so touching.
The buddha didn't smack him, since he knew he wouldn't be able to catch wukong even if he fought with him. (Wukong is known to be very sly and would run if he find himself in a disadvantage) He made a bet with Wukong, if wukong won, he will take over the jade emperor seat, if he lost, he will stop his disruptive actions. While he was distracted, he was trapped underneath the mountain and sealed to prevent him from shapeshift and running away
@@65firered maybe they need to put a "recommend to read JOURNEY TO THE WEST first" 😂 Chinese mythology is super hard to understand for those who don't know a thing about asian beliefs and cultures
As a Chinese who read, listened and watched so many interpretations of some of the scenes, the feelings of watching the "real" speed of "flipping through cloud and riding the fog" (腾云驾雾) is quite different from someone who never imagined such movements. It is not surprising, but yet still refreshing and exhilarating to see a "realistic" depiction. There are so many such examples in the game play videos.
It's actually crazy how accurate to the novel that intro is; Erlang, the shapeshifting part of the duel, Guanyin's binding cheesing Monkey out of the fight. Edit: butchered Guanyin's name lol.
@@ffbeexaid4509 Yeah, though in the story that only happens once Tripitaka/Tang Sanzang has been introduced and it seems like the game is diverging before that.
@@biawakstruus I not sure that’s the case; the event happening here matches very close to the prologue, and Sun Wukong’s original master was a Daoist sage who taught him the art of the earthly multitude among other things. The mention of scriptures is an argument against that I admit
I really hope that this game makes Western audience to start getting into Journey to the West and Chinese Mythology, because there are a lot of rich stories there that can be told in so many mediums, so far is had been lock mostly in China.
What frustrates me the most is if people had watched the Monkey King movies, their reactions would be 10x greater. People don't understand the power and scale of the Monkey King series and they're just like, "wow, that's cool" - and I'm like DAYUMMMMMM.
All I’ve seen is people complaining about the Voice but if they’ve watched literally anything else with him in it they should know that’s how he sounds
One more thing, the monkey can create a lot of avatars by just pull some body hairs and blow them. The avatars can fight as the distraction and hide the real monkey to give the fatal blow. This ability is useful when fighting large size enemies. It will be much more fun to play the game if knowing the original story. All the other characters have their own stories and skills.
We can't forget, one of his many transformations is literally him but stronger than his enemy, but he barely uses it, i think because his mind blocks it to not lose the fun of the fights, only unlocking it when needed
why people keep saying its stolen from dbz dbz didnt exit when this legend was out and also dragon ball was base on the monkey king people need to go way back and read the book or know before asuming they take this from recent cartoon . so sad this is older than dragon or any other where you think the ideo comes from for dragon ball as same for dragon quest from dragon ball to
That is like saying the holy Bible was inspired by Supernatural... LOL The cloud mount is called "Somersault Cloud" and is already in the Jouney to the West ancient noval. Design is inspired by DragonBallz? OMG...... you know nothing about the culture... Google is your friend, don't trust a cartoon too much.
Dragonball actually took a lot of bits from Journey to the West and was inspired by it( The story about Wu Kong) because in Dragonball Goku's name in Kanji is Sun Wu Kong, which is the same name as Wu Kong in Journey to the West. So Dragonball about the monkeys, Saiyan, Nimbus, the three eyed guy and some other stuff actually all came from this.

i did in my playtrough (no streamer), but the problem is thhe subtitles are to low and small and its easy to oversee them in a cutscene or if someone talks in game
Because no streamer here understands classical mandarin speech. Easier for them to focus on the cutscenes and gameplay without having to squint at the tiny subs.
@burakbektas7086 Also these streamers need to read and interact with their chat. This isnt't like watching a foreign show/movie, they can't focus on three things at once.
Chinese mythology is actually more profound than Western mythology. We should really learn more about it. Many famous Asian animated films are inspired by Chinese culture.
As a European who really likes Chinese mythology ,them saying stuff like "oh goku " it breaks my heart , Journey to the West is such a good story .One last thing i hate is that people expected him to have a lower voice and sound more mature ,meanwhile my boy Wukong is the embodiment of a troll ,they nailed the voice acting .
Dude the Chinese are going to revive the gaming industry, have you seen their upcoming games? It is a blessing to have the Chinese coming into AAA games. Not only that but I grew up around kunfu movie and when ever there is nothing to watch like (super hero or Marvel and DC) I would go back to Chinese fantasy drama. Have you seen I AM NOBODY? Chinese drama... Holy shit it is fire! Or what about Ever Night and Legend of Chusen?
Fun Fact : Wukong is the OG goku and naruto (staff and nimbus/ clones and pranks), he's so strong that he's 7x immortal, the only one who can humble his ass his supreme buddah As for the story, the game is actually take place after the journey to the west story
The fact there's no HP bar in the intro is canon because he has multiple layers of invincibility/immortality at this point. If the constrictive curse wasn't invoked he would've been able to wipe out that army and Erlang easily.
This game directly from legend journey to the west. There story why sun wukong against the heavens. He was tricked by the Jade Emperor into watching over the horses, the Monkey King was infuriated by this humiliating act and rebels, proclaiming himself the Great Sage, Equal of Heaven and sets the Cloud Horses free in vengeance. Sun Wukong later single-handedly defeated the Army of Heaven's 100,000 celestial warriors, all 28 constellations, four heavenly kings, Nezha the god of protection, and proves himself equal to the best of Heaven's generals, Erlang Shen. Eventually, through the teamwork of Taoist and Buddhist forces, including the efforts from some of the greatest deities, and then finally by the Bodhisattva of mercy, Guanyin, Sun Wukong is captured.
I’ve never played any game remotely close to this, or what you guys would call a “Dark Souls” like game. Is this worth getting or should I try another game first? This looks insane.
It’s a way less punishing experience than games like Dark Souls for sure. You can farm XPs and resources to level up if you can’t beat a boss. And you don’t lose anything if you die.
Its a linear boss rush game ........ what you mean no game like this ...... half the arcade game of 80s and 90s were linear boss rush game. Its a good game but it does nothing unique .
You can see some of the characters or gods or deities in Chinese temples. The book "journey to the west" put some stories behind them, kind of like Marvell created a story around Thor, or Percy Jackson around Greek mythology. Since the book has been around for 400 years, some part of it got merged into the mythology. The monkey king never became any part of Chinese religion, so it is solely viewed as a book character.
As a chinese. The mythological story of Sun Wukong has accompanied me for almost 40 years since I was six years old...Foreigners almost know nothing about Chinese mythology. It's hard to understand the cause and effect of it...why the gold hoop appeared on the head of Monkey King？Go read Journey to the West... 😝
"Foreigners" is a big word, friend. Use it parsimoniously. You cannot place some people as the head of a group yourself. I can guarantee you there are outsiders who know chinese history more than chinese people.
Most people in China and Japan probably don’t know much about Greek, Germanic, or Celtic mythology of Europe. The culture and people you belong too often influence your knowledge about different parts of the world.
"Journey to the West" is one of China's four great classics. It is a mythological masterpiece with a history of hundreds of years. This novel has influenced the entire Asia. Japan's Dragon Ball was inspired by China's "Journey to the West". The prologue of the game comes from the 1986 TV version of "Journey to the West". If you are interested, you can read it. ruclips.net/video/yPNpBixE_SU/видео.html
Many people, including those in chat and streamers themselves, call riding the cloud is "Goku style". No, it is actually the other way around, Goku riding the cloud is the Wukong style. I mean it is so obvious, how can a story which was written in the 1500s "copy" the style of something was written in the 1980's right?
nah geoffy boy loves his s0ny $tuff, plus, of course, too `problematic` for the western urinalists and all attached to them. irl and everyone else? yeah it`s really nice!
The golden hoop given by Buddha to Tang Monk (Tang Seng) was used to subdue Wukong and protect him during his journey. It had a mantra on it, and when Tang Monk chanted it, it would become tight and give Wukong a headache. According to the novel, after Wukong finished his journey, Buddha had removed the golden hoop and gave Wukong his freedom.
36:40 I wish people stop with the whole Wukong and Goku non-sense. Goku has long become his own character a long time ago. current goku has nothing to do with Wukong 1. the staff is gone 2. Nimbus is gone 3. the monkey tail and transformation has been gone for years The character "Goku" has long left the shadows of Wukong
@@R1kual It's the same as removing Sun from Wukong. I'm not disagreeing with you that the DBZ Goku should no longer be directly tied to Wukong. But people should not discount the fact that Goku by itself is Wukong's Japanese name.
@@D3g3n24 Let me put it this way, Toriyama was very open about his inspiration and references to the point of having prototype Goku being a completely monkey boy.
@@antwangohe’s one of the few people to clown on wukong. His story is really in depth but he has a dog and an eye that can see through any illusion and a axe that can cleave through mountains.
I was a boy when I watched the Monkey tv series in 1978 based off the same Chinese novel and mythology. Sun Wukong and his immortal friend Pigsy. Now it looks better than the tv series and is playable....
Journey to the West is written in classical Chinese, even as Chinese people often read it has a certain threshold. Some words still follow ancient rules. But I'm sure every Chinese knows more or less about Journey to the West.
Ngl it feels very VERY nice to play a game that lived up to its hype and met and even went beyond its expectations it set up. Especially in today's video game landscape and industry it just feels nice to play a good game.
Game Science has cook way to good with this game that the western game studio's are so jealous to Black Myth:Wukong success that they desperately attack the game and failed horribly it boost the game success more instead
I don’t really care if anyone watches my gameplay but I’m required to put some original content alongside the reactions so I meet the youtube guidelines otherwise I wouldn’t have bothered with it
@@FXRain I know, I applaud your strategy because honestly, this works. I'm not saying its bad or anything. You're smart and I think someone should let you know this :D
I think it is necessary to point out the most important but most easily overlooked core of Journey to the West, which is the satire on power and the struggle against fate. This is written very clearly in the book.

Ironically to those saying references to Goku from DBZ, Sun Wukong’s name in Japanese is literally Son Goku. Goku from DBZ and Son the Four Tail from Naruto are literally based of Sun Wukong. Heck, there’s even a Son Goku in Highschool DxD since there are pantheons there as well

When people say Wukong can be killed, he can't he literally immortal
Yeah. He crossed his name out of the book of the dead and he stole the immortal peaches. With his staff, Ruyi Jingu Bang, he's impossible to defeat. Very few can beat him.
@@fierygamer582 yeah, you only can seal wukong
Wukong remains as immortal as ever. The main mission of this game is to let you know how Wukong came back.
Didn't he even gone as far as to have 6 more immortality on top of his pre existing immortality? Wukong in myth is legit so overpowered for a non-omniponent character.
I think there's a reason why characters inspired by him tend to be on the OP side. Take Son Goku from Dragon Ball for example.

Journey to the West: It is also often used as a metaphor in management science. As the supervisor, Tang Sanzang also has three employee types with different abilities and personalities.
Sun Wukong: Excellent Almighty. Which means that his work ability and efficiency are first-class, but because his ability is much higher than that of his supervisor, he is often not favored by his supervisor.

The golden hoop, which is given to Tangseng(Tang Monk) by Buddha, to subdue Wukong to protect him during the journey. It has a spell and when Tangseng chant it, will get tighten and make Wukong headache. According to the novel, after Wukong finished the journey, Buddha already removed the golden hoop and give Wukong freedom. But here in the opening intro, Wukong is definitely cheated by Buddha.
Unfortunately the english dub doesn't really make alot of sense if compared to the chinese dub in which which he actually talks about how he has done his duty by protecting tripitaka on his journey and only wanted a life of freedom to live in Huaguo mountain away from the heavenly court afterwards, yet the heavenly court came after him with their army and killed his compatriots. also side note relevant to the story is that he actually fought everyone in the heavenly court before the journey and won and was unparalleled until buddha himself almighty smack him into the base of the mountain. haha
我很慶幸身為中國人可以直接聽到原本的配音。還有中文發音的模型口型，太感動了。
I'm glad that as a Chinese I can hear the original dubbing directly. There are also model mouth shapes for Chinese pronunciation, which is so touching.
Yeah He got jumped and still won till Buddha came, what an insane character
The English version seems to assume you already know the original story.
The buddha didn't smack him, since he knew he wouldn't be able to catch wukong even if he fought with him. (Wukong is known to be very sly and would run if he find himself in a disadvantage) He made a bet with Wukong, if wukong won, he will take over the jade emperor seat, if he lost, he will stop his disruptive actions. While he was distracted, he was trapped underneath the mountain and sealed to prevent him from shapeshift and running away

As a Chinese who read, listened and watched so many interpretations of some of the scenes, the feelings of watching the "real" speed of "flipping through cloud and riding the fog" (腾云驾雾) is quite different from someone who never imagined such movements. It is not surprising, but yet still refreshing and exhilarating to see a "realistic" depiction. There are so many such examples in the game play videos.
Omg the sound effect when he ride the cloud is so nostalgic, it’s similar to the sound in the series i watched my whole childhood
Suprised the series hasn't been streamed somewhere recently. I can only pray they don't try and remake it.
It's actually crazy how accurate to the novel that intro is; Erlang, the shapeshifting part of the duel, Guanyin's binding cheesing Monkey out of the fight.
Edit: butchered Guanyin's name lol.
Circlet was placed by Quan Yin right?
@@ffbeexaid4509 Yeah, though in the story that only happens once Tripitaka/Tang Sanzang has been introduced and it seems like the game is diverging before that.
@@mojoboingo1744If I remember correctly,this game takes place *post* journey to the west,not before
The game is after the journey. He mentioned Master (Tang Sanzang) is safe, Scripture is sound.
@@biawakstruus I not sure that’s the case; the event happening here matches very close to the prologue, and Sun Wukong’s original master was a Daoist sage who taught him the art of the earthly multitude among other things. The mention of scriptures is an argument against that I admit
I really hope that this game makes Western audience to start getting into Journey to the West and Chinese Mythology, because there are a lot of rich stories there that can be told in so many mediums, so far is had been lock mostly in China.
The scaling of Chinese myths and stories always impresses me. I just read a novel where the mc surpasses reality itself at the end.
Wukong’s voice has always been referenced as being squeaky. Even Goku’s original voice acting is squeaky.
I can play the intro all-day😆
What frustrates me the most is if people had watched the Monkey King movies, their reactions would be 10x greater. People don't understand the power and scale of the Monkey King series and they're just like, "wow, that's cool" - and I'm like DAYUMMMMMM.
All I’ve seen is people complaining about the Voice but if they’ve watched literally anything else with him in it they should know that’s how he sounds
Yeah im actually disappointed that his isn't more high pitched than this
One more thing, the monkey can create a lot of avatars by just pull some body hairs and blow them. The avatars can fight as the distraction and hide the real monkey to give the fatal blow. This ability is useful when fighting large size enemies.
It will be much more fun to play the game if knowing the original story. All the other characters have their own stories and skills.
We can't forget, one of his many transformations is literally him but stronger than his enemy, but he barely uses it, i think because his mind blocks it to not lose the fun of the fights, only unlocking it when needed
Seeing these westerners don't know anything about Chinese Mythology is funny :)))

Design is inspired by dragon ball. The cloud the fights, alot.
That is like saying the holy Bible was inspired by Supernatural... LOL
The cloud mount is called "Somersault Cloud" and is already in the Jouney to the West ancient noval. Design is inspired by DragonBallz? OMG...... you know nothing about the culture... Google is your friend, don't trust a cartoon too much.
@DragonBallGOAT other way around, db was inspired from wukong
It's painful to watch some of those player miss treating this character .
Hmm legendary monke
They will figure out. no worries
Dragonball actually took a lot of bits from Journey to the West and was inspired by it( The story about Wu Kong) because in Dragonball Goku's name in Kanji is Sun Wu Kong, which is the same name as Wu Kong in Journey to the West. So Dragonball about the monkeys, Saiyan, Nimbus, the three eyed guy and some other stuff actually all came from this. Heres a real life Wukong from Journey to the west . ruclips.net/video/ZzfUvmxZddQ/видео.htmlsi=az8Q3HaUbpZjRlR7

Chinese mythology.......BOOM!!! "hi world...how is it going???"
Chinese mythology is actually more profound than Western mythology. We should really learn more about it. Many famous Asian animated films are inspired by Chinese culture.

As a European who really likes Chinese mythology ,them saying stuff like "oh goku " it breaks my heart , Journey to the West is such a good story .One last thing i hate is that people expected him to have a lower voice and sound more mature ,meanwhile my boy Wukong is the embodiment of a troll ,they nailed the voice acting .
你的意思是声音更尖细更活泼的才像孙悟空，对吧？中配就是这种。果然我也觉得这种才是最合适的。
In a word: Epic!
Dude the Chinese are going to revive the gaming industry, have you seen their upcoming games?
It is a blessing to have the Chinese coming into AAA games. Not only that but I grew up around kunfu movie and when ever there is nothing to watch like (super hero or Marvel and DC) I would go back to Chinese fantasy drama. Have you seen I AM NOBODY? Chinese drama... Holy shit it is fire! Or what about Ever Night and Legend of Chusen?
日本人知道孙悟空，七龙珠里衣服上写的也是悟，但他们并不清楚含义，就像筋斗云，他们也这么叫，但根本不知道筋斗的意思是什么，为什么叫筋斗云。筋斗在中文是跟头的意思，孙悟空翻一个跟头十万八千里，因此叫跟斗云，筋斗的普通话发音是jin dou，作者吴承恩是江苏人，吴语（古汉语）里发音是gen d(t)ou。
悟这个字对应的日文是悟る（さとる），日文发音既不是wu也不是gu，对不上悟空的wu，因此单独模仿wu做了个gu的发音，空也一样，在日文里表示‘空无’时读作 から，对不上kong，因此单独模仿kong做了个ko的发音，否则悟空按照日文发音就是さとる から，发音和意思是连接不上的，所以，悟和空这两个汉字在七龙珠里更多是标志或符号，缺乏了内核。
日本引用了很多中文，由于借鉴的时代混杂，加上自身的理解偏差，部分发音和含义也有所区别。可盗版终究不如原版高级，这就是中国人能从日文里的汉字向下猜出大概这句日文什么意思，而日本人往上看中文却很难理解的原因。

Fun Fact : Wukong is the OG goku and naruto (staff and nimbus/ clones and pranks), he's so strong that he's 7x immortal, the only one who can humble his ass his supreme buddah
As for the story, the game is actually take place after the journey to the west story
The fact there's no HP bar in the intro is canon because he has multiple layers of invincibility/immortality at this point. If the constrictive curse wasn't invoked he would've been able to wipe out that army and Erlang easily.
This game directly from legend journey to the west. There story why sun wukong against the heavens. He was tricked by the Jade Emperor into watching over the horses, the Monkey King was infuriated by this humiliating act and rebels, proclaiming himself the Great Sage, Equal of Heaven and sets the Cloud Horses free in vengeance. Sun Wukong later single-handedly defeated the Army of Heaven's 100,000 celestial warriors, all 28 constellations, four heavenly kings, Nezha the god of protection, and proves himself equal to the best of Heaven's generals, Erlang Shen. Eventually, through the teamwork of Taoist and Buddhist forces, including the efforts from some of the greatest deities, and then finally by the Bodhisattva of mercy, Guanyin, Sun Wukong is captured.
That opening reminds me of Asura's Wrath

I’ve never played any game remotely close to this, or what you guys would call a “Dark Souls” like game. Is this worth getting or should I try another game first? This looks insane.
It’s a way less punishing experience than games like Dark Souls for sure. You can farm XPs and resources to level up if you can’t beat a boss. And you don’t lose anything if you die.
In my opinion this game is worth the money, its very fun to play and has the right amount of difficulty
It's kinda like Jedi Fallen Order.

Wukong was always supposed to sound squeaky, being a monkey. Thats canon.
You can see some of the characters or gods or deities in Chinese temples. The book "journey to the west" put some stories behind them, kind of like Marvell created a story around Thor, or Percy Jackson around Greek mythology. Since the book has been around for 400 years, some part of it got merged into the mythology. The monkey king never became any part of Chinese religion, so it is solely viewed as a book character.
As a chinese. The mythological story of Sun Wukong has accompanied me for almost 40 years since I was six years old...Foreigners almost know nothing about Chinese mythology. It's hard to understand the cause and effect of it...why the gold hoop appeared on the head of Monkey King？Go read Journey to the West... 😝
"Foreigners" is a big word, friend. Use it parsimoniously. You cannot place some people as the head of a group yourself. I can guarantee you there are outsiders who know chinese history more than chinese people.
Most people in China and Japan probably don’t know much about Greek, Germanic, or Celtic mythology of Europe. The culture and people you belong too often influence your knowledge about different parts of the world.

"Journey to the West" is one of China's four great classics. It is a mythological masterpiece with a history of hundreds of years. This novel has influenced the entire Asia. Japan's Dragon Ball was inspired by China's "Journey to the West". The prologue of the game comes from the 1986 TV version of "Journey to the West". If you are interested, you can read it. ruclips.net/video/yPNpBixE_SU/видео.html
1986 tv show was called `Monkey` for us Brits and anyone else that enjoyed it.
Asia is not only china and japan ........
Many people, including those in chat and streamers themselves, call riding the cloud is "Goku style". No, it is actually the other way around, Goku riding the cloud is the Wukong style. I mean it is so obvious, how can a story which was written in the 1500s "copy" the style of something was written in the 1980's right?

The golden hoop given by Buddha to Tang Monk (Tang Seng) was used to subdue Wukong and protect him during his journey. It had a mantra on it, and when Tang Monk chanted it, it would become tight and give Wukong a headache. According to the novel, after Wukong finished his journey, Buddha had removed the golden hoop and gave Wukong his freedom.

其實這是因為，亞洲這邊的思想會說，無論是貓咪/狗狗/猴子，只要能活夠久就會成為妖怪獲得智慧，其中某些與神交好的就有機會被神明收為部下，這就跟開場動畫中神明旁邊的狗一樣，這隻狗稱為「哮天犬」，其中「哮」這個字有很多解讀，我把他解讀為其「叫聲驚人」連天上的神明都會被驚嚇到。
亞洲的神祉不是只有一個，並不是像基督教信奉耶穌一樣，而是一個成體系的系統，每個神明各司其職，而其中也會有利益糾葛與仇恨糾葛就是了。
而這個故事的前傳，就是西遊記的部分，孫悟空協助法師拿到經書教化人民，照理來說已經有了神明的位置，但是悟空掛念凡間的朋友，所以才去跟神明爭論，為何要欺壓凡間的朋友。
