As a media person and a hardcore gamer with over 30 years of gaming experience, I have been following Black Myth: Wukong silently. This time, it has completely gone viral and has become popular abroad.
When the first trailer of Black Myth: Wukong was released four years ago, accompanied by the melody of Yungong Xunyin, the memory of Journey to the West, Sun Wukong and traditional culture engraved in the bones of Chinese people was completely awakened. At that moment, I don’t know how many old boys who were no longer young burst into tears.
When I was a student, I got to know and experience domestic games through The Legend of Sword and Fairy and Scar of Sky. However, in recent years, for various reasons, I have paid less and less attention to them. I even thought that the glory of domestic games would always remain in the era of The Legend of Sword and Fairy and Xuan-Yuan Sword.
Cheers to Sun Wukong today, we have waited too long for this moment.
Black Myth: Wukong is to Chinese games what The Wandering Earth is to Chinese movies. It is a major event, a turning point, and a milestone. As this "domestic aircraft carrier" representing cultural soft power was launched and put to sea, it received high attention and unanimous praise at home and abroad, and continued to break world records. When foreign players, in order to understand the worldview of Black Myth: Wukong, picked up "Journey to the West" and began to seriously study the differences between YAO GUAI and SHEN XIAN, we knew that this thing was done - this time, it was our turn to tell a Chinese story with the world's highest standards.
Games should never be synonymous with mobile games, recharges, and addiction. As the "ninth art", AAA games, which represent the highest level of game production, require strong economic hard power and cultural soft power support. Such a threshold makes it impossible for domestic games to reach the goal. As a result, some people lie down and let things go, some take the opportunity to make money, and some are like Sun Wukong, unwilling to give up.
Finally, after years of polishing, Black Myth: Wukong was born.
After a long period of sedimentation and accumulation, the Chinese game industry now has the conditions to become world-class, and the only thing left is to break through this last layer of window paper. And it is most appropriate that the Monkey King, who is innocent and beautiful, concentrates the essence of Chinese traditional culture, and carries the most simple emotions of the Chinese people, will complete this final step.
