MODERATORS
What are people's thoughts on Wukong? I ended up getting it since the reviews seemed very good and unfortunately I dont think it is a very good game. Looks great, flashy first few chapters, but SUPER klunky. Camera makes elden ring's seem good, terrain navigation is atrocious, and the story is so disjointed that I quickly lost interest in trying to track it (though as a fromsoft fan I shouldnt really be able to complain about story stuff). I have it at about a 6/10.
I haven't played it simply because of all of the right wing culture war noise surrounding it. No hate to anyone legitimately enjoying it, more power to you, but if there is discussion about game mechanics or lore or technical achievements the game brings, it's overwhelmingly obscured by Gamers™ lauding its lack of diversity.
It's the Wish.com version of Dark Souls
What input did you play on? The camera was fine for me on mouse and keyboard, which is funny because From games are usually pretty bad on m&k. Terrain navigation was at its worst when invisible walls were plentiful, but overall, I didn't struggle with navigation. Also, as someone who is mildly familiar with JTTW, the story was a bit confusing but followable.
