If you go into it expecting a mostly standard Soulslike experience with some blood-boiling boss encounters mixed in with basic level design, you will have a better time than if you were going into it expecting it to be like a traditional character action game.

Different stances allow for different heavy attacks, performed by filling up the Focus meter.

The team at Game Rant has done the research required here, picking out some of the best gaming laptops for Black Myth: Wukong, which also double as excellent gaming and productivity-centric picks for gamers and creators alike in 2024.


If the story was anything to care about, this would be an even more annoying problem, but Black Myth 's story is largely inconsequential . It takes players from one level to the next, introducing them to various characters pulled from Journey to the West , and while there is an overarching story, each chapter also has its own individual tale to tell as well. The dialogue is clunky and the voice acting is unimpressive. But few people play these types of games for the story anyway. Again, Soulslike diehards coming into this likely won't be bothered by Black Myth 's lackluster story, but those expecting something like more traditional character action games are going to be disappoin


As expected, the sales for Hogwarts Legacy were through the roof , with some sources indicating that the game has sold over 34 million copies to date (although this number hasn't been officially confirmed by Warner Bros.). With Hogwarts Legacy already confirmed for release on the Switch 2, its sales will only continue to grow in the coming years. The only head-scratching thing about Hogwarts Legacy so far has been the apparent cancellation of planned DLC , despite the game's massive sa


Black Myth 's story didn't leave any impression on me, but that's not to say there isn't some spectacle to it. Black Myth features all kinds of downright bizarre scenes and characters that are a treat to see, brought to life by the game's mostly-impressive graphics. Certain areas in Black Myth: Wukong look incredible, and the game boasts some awesome animations and eye-catching characters as well. The game is packed with all kinds of memorable boss designs, though there are also many that are underwhelming and feel samey. In fact, there was one secret boss I found in Black Myth: Wukong that was literally a re-skin of a mini-boss found elsewhere in the chapter, which was a shame, and while many of the game's bosses are visually distinct, blackmythwukongtalk.Com a lot of the actual fights feel the same. This may be due to the Destined One being limited to their staff, but I felt like I had seen everything the combat had to offer by the halfway point. Perhaps a shorter runtime or more freedom when selecting spells would have staved off the repetition, but as it stands, players can only equip certain spells in certain slots, which seems like an unnecessary limitation that stifles combat possibilit

To do this, Game Science is, as mentioned previously leveraging Epic's Unreal Engine 5, in tandem with Nvidia's DLSS, AMD's FSR, and Intel's XESS upscalers to the tune that they are mentioned in the notes in Black Myth's hardware requirements below.

To do this, the Scar 17's powerful CPU and GPU combination is aided by 2TB of SSD storage in a RAID configuration, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, and liquid metal under the hood to keep thermals in check, making it one of, if not the fastest gaming laptops money can buy. It does, as a result, command a premium versus other RTX 4090-based gaming laptops, but as one of the only players that has AMD's extended L3 cache (also known as 3D V-Cache) on offer for games, it comes to the table with a sizable advantage versus its peers.


As reviews have come in, including our own , it’s become clear that critics have generally enjoyed it.
