A lack of a mini-map or compass was lamented by players and suggested as a simple solution to this issue. As was having the barriers glow a particular color when approached to make it clear the area was a no-go zone. Whatever the reason for it, though, this design choice is an odd

While Black Myth: Wukong is a lot more bombastic with plenty of different customisation options to ensure you can play in whatever style you suit best, Sifu instead uses a rogue-lite progression system paired with unique hand-to-hand combat controls that challenge you to try something new, all while balancing the aging mechanic that means with each death you get frailer but stron

Part of the reason why Cloud Step is so useful is that you can drink from your gourd and use any medicine and even some other spells, all while the enemy has their eyes set on your decoy. This spell also doesn't cost much Mana, making it low-commitment as w

Black Myth: Wukong 's size of 130GB (or 128.68 GB to be precise) on Steam and 104GB on PS5 may be beefy, but it is hardly uncommon now. Two massive releases from last year are comparable in size: Starfield, at an impressive 125GB on Steam, and Baldur's Gate 3 , at a hefty 150GB on Steam, but these two titles are open-world adventures that can take over one hundred hours. Black Myth: Wukong is more linear, taking anywhere from 30–35 hours to beat , showing how much extra room the incredible graphics and massive scale of visuals requ

Efficiency could be the issue here, with game developers doing everything to make their games look as good as possible without trying to get more out of smaller file sizes. Yes, the graphical fidelity that developers can produce will require more hard drive space , but games always tend to have bits of unused content left behind. This cut content is usually found when scouring the Game Science files and can give many players an idea of how a title could have turned out, but they also can take up valuable storage space depending on the g

Lies of P is definitely a step up in difficulty, and it'll introduce you to Soulslike progression as well, but it takes a much more linear approach to storytelling compared to other titles it shares its genre with. The rich environments it features are similar in level of detail to those in Black Myth: Wukong but switch up the aesthetic from the traditional Chinese to a post-apocalyptic steampunk fant

These are but a few examples of games asking for over a tenth of a 1TB SSD, which should be a lot of storage, but with the way that gaming is going, file sizes are only going to increase . This seems to be a sacrifice needed for the new era of gaming engines and the graphical fidelity that they now come with. Players are getting spoiled with path tracing, high-poly models, and 4K textures, but will have to spend most of the day hogging the internet to download this new era of games, especially if their internet isn't spectacu

It is a rare thing when a game ends up looking as good as the initial trailers promised, but Black Myth: Wukong _ **** _ has delivered where many games have not. The graphical fidelity and visuals of the title cannot be overstated, and the scale of its intro alone shows players the kind of work and detail that went into the title, presenting Wukong as the divinely powerful being that he is in the Journey to the West novel. It's all impressive work, but this level of graphical fidelity and scale comes at a c

Ring of Fire , as the name suggests, creates an (unfortunately quite small) ring of fire around The Destined One and grants him a few perks when he's standing inside. The main issue is that enemies can still enter the ring and still damage you. You, of course, get to enjoy the buffs when you're in the ring, but because of how frantic combat is in Black Myth: Wukong, there are few opportunities where you'll be in a position where you can stand still long enough to actually appreciate this. There are some niche chances where this skill might be the best option, but it's not worth keeping this spell equipped to find these rare mome

This can be said for Thousand-Mile Quest, which comes with the fun reward of a new transformation, but requires backtracking to two different locations, after beating two different bosses, and making sure to exhuast dialogue options, all while ensuring you don't soft-lock yourself into a sequencing error. The transformation is fun, but whether it's worth the effort is up to
