    It is really interesting seeing games media outlets waging war on Black Myth Wukong. They’re really mad the game is so successful, its actually hilarious.

    I am happy for Game Science. I look forward to their next project and wish them great success.

    Black myth wukong uses unreal engine 5. There is no tech war here.

    That’s like watching a military day parade where china shows us tanks but with a new paint job.

      “US and the rest of the world uses arabic numerals, so all tech derived from the number system (which includes modern computers) must belong to the Arabs.”

      Are ya gonna sanction game engines too now, that they are actually competing, like a little baby?
