Black Myth: Wukong — Features That Would Be Great Additions

Compared to previous bosses, Tiger Vanguard has an incredibly varied moveset, and with the speed of his actions, you'll be forced to learn his patterns to even stand a chance of survival. Getting a new spell makes it all worthwhile once you finally beat him, but he still remains one of the trickiest hurdles to overc

The Yellow Wind Sage's most frustrating attack during this phase begins with him running at you and performing a quick kick. If you don't dodge the kick he'll launch you into the air and begin a lengthy and unavoidable combo attack that will usually drain most of your health , if not all of it. Watch for him dashing at you to perform the kick and get out of the way by any means necessary since this attack is a grab and ignores invincibility effects like Rock Solid and Resolute Counterflow .

When you first approach the boss, he tends to perform a series of slashes with his staff, sending out blades of wind toward you. With good timing, you can perfect dodge through these wind blades as they get close, though dodging to the side as they get close or hopping over the horizontal blades will also work. The Yellow Wind Sage usually fires two wind blades with consecutive staff swings, then vaults into the air as he fires the third blade. He can also fire a single blade before transitioning to an overhead slam that sends glowing spikes shooting out of the ground in a line. Luckily, this slam can be avoided by dodging to the left or right as the staff comes down. After the staff hits the ground, you'll have a short opening to attack the Yellow Wind Sage while he recovers.

This mid-game Transformation allows you to transform into a Macaque Chief and deal multiple slashes with your long blade, with the last hit dealing more Damage and granting more Focus . Its Heavy Attack is slower, but much stronger, and grants even more Fo

With its fast-paced combat, a variety of spells and transformations, and expertly designed bosses with distinct attack patterns, each fight feels unique with almost no repetition. This boss-rush experience is executed so well that it's worth playing the game solely for these encount

A simple quest tracker or log to keep track of active side quests would be a helpful addition to Black Myth: Wukong . It would make it easier to follow up on any NPCs worth revisiting and ensure that players don't miss out on crucial rewards. There's really no reason for the game not to have

However, it's clear that Black Myth: Wukong isn't without its flaws, as certain aspects could have been executed better. Many players have already voiced their biggest concerns with this new action-RPG. With just a few minor tweaks and additions, the overall experience could be significantly improved. From the absence of a mini-map to the abundance of invisible walls that disrupt immersion, here are some issues that need to be addres
