ScreenRant's 'Black Myth: Wukong' Review Was Written By Consultancy Firm Employee...

The review of 'Black Myth: Wukong' by ScreenRant gave the game a 3 out of 5 stars, citing a "lack of inclusivity and diversity" - However, what I'm going to get into here exposes the layers of the critique and how it extends well beyond mere 'game analysis'...

Woke Journalist : Lack of Diversity and Representation!, this game must Fail! REEEE! 🤬
Gamers : "Monkeys together... Strong!🐒"

"Game does not incude DEI messaging" should be promoted as a pro for a game, not a con.

Pretty sure wukong is diverse.
They got reptillians, canines, tigers, rodents, marsupials, etc as characters.

Screenrant tried to keep that stupid review's author hidden. Too bad it BACKFIRED!

It's time for a criminal investigation. These people belong in jail for extortion and fraud.

"Lacking diversity and inclusivity" sounds like a positive selling point to me.

[Python_Bacon]

No diversity?! I’ll take the Deluxe Edition please.

[Yubulyme]

This is fucking ridiculous, wtf happened to journalistic integrity

[MjollTheLioness-oy]

Mistranslating Asian devs doesn't make them just look stupid, it also makes them look racist. They should've just apologized and dropped the story but they've doubled down which makes the allegations that SBI attempted to blackmail Game Science devs even more believable. The hubris of these people is their own worst enemy.

Game science should sue ign and other game jernalist for defamation. Sue, the ones who said they were misogynistic.

DEI is the best thing to ever happen to the gaming industry. If they say you MUST play a game, avoid it at all costs. If they tell you a game isn’t diverse, is racist or one of the phobes, you know it’s a 10/10 banger. DEI is the best game recommendation service to ever exist.

"Hello Screen Rant. I would like to order 2 portions of Black Myth: Wukong. Hold the nose rings."

[Bluepenguin]

how western gaming journalism works: if they get goodies from companies game is 10/10 IGN, if they don't get goodies from the company game is 5/10 or 6/10. nice extortion method if you ask me.

[Official_RetroMania]

Gamers: we enjoyed the gameplay, music, mythical Asian Monkey King themes, amazing visuals...

Journalist: we searched for "diversity", we couldn't find it so we will give an unfair score because we care more about ideologies than about the game itself.

[SpiderSora]

The Wukong game designers need to gather the 7 dragon balls and wish these activists outta our games

"Game Journalist" is synonymous with "Crazy Activist" these days so I'm hardly surprised by this revelation about this complete lack of journalistic integrity.

[silverback]

At this point, I genuinely feel that these game journalists are just racist against Asian developers because of how often they attack them consistently. This isn't the only time they wrote a piece against Asian developers. I've noticed it with Stellar Blade, Elden Ring, and a few others that were made by Asian developers. Very noticeable patterns by the Gaming media.

just remember folks the Black Myth: Wukong benchmark test had more active players then concord
