I’m so glad i discovered this channel. I had given up on this game around chapter 3. Basically accepted I couldn’t beat it. However some random folks in this community encouraged me to keep pressing on.

So I did, and damn this game is amazing. I think an issue some players are running into is they get stuck at a boss fight & then give up thinking there is no other way to progress.

However the game has quite a lot of side quests and hidden boss fights throughout Chapter 1 and 2. So you can actually just leave that boss - and go explore.

As you unlock new weapons/powers and Will just by naturally completing these side quests - you eventually become powerful enough to re-face that boss.

Some of the game’s secrets aren’t that straight forward tho. I was stuck on Chapter 3 and didn’t realize I had missed like 3 hidden boss fights + several key powers in the opening sections.

Anyways if you were one of the guys in the comments that told me not to give up - thank you. You guys are awesome! Sadly I don’t have any gamer friends in real life that play challenging games. So you guys really helped me out when I needed it the most. ❤

Morty finishing the game this fast without a review key is crazy.

[dagonkiikari]

The speed at which you can do these amazes me.

[champadin]

The speed at which people can comment on the speed Mort reviews games is astounding

[HeWhoShams]

No one can challenge this man. He's unstoppable.

Hey, just wanted to say that I really appreciate you always including the steam deck in your reviews. Im one of those rare people that only has the steam deck as a video game capable pc, and it's been pretty hard to get info on new releases, especially when the oled version was released. So thanks! The extra effort is appreciated.

I think, all things considered, it's a stellar entry into the market for a new studio. They've already sold 10 million copies in 3 days, so sequels are very likely to come. There's a major shift in Chinese gaming industry from mobile games to AAA stationary platforms games and I think this game just spearheaded the whole movement with a bang. There's at least 3 more games coming in 2025 from Chinese devs that I'm really excited about and all of them have stellar graphics. Western devs will have to pick up the pace if they wanna keep up.

Deciding to buy game....
You.... Finished it already and made a high quality review
WFT dude....

I heard originally they planned 13 chapters but due to time constraints had to condense it down to 6. I hope they'll release a few DLCs later now it has overwhelming success.

This game is surprising me. Once I worked out my graphics settings to get it to run well, I’ve had a blast with it. Only bought it because I was sick this weekend and needed something to pass the time while I sit in my room.

Numerous other reviews were trying to pigeon hole Black Myth into some mainstream genres and spent time trying to nitpick how it is lacking in those genres. You are the first ((and only) review I have watched (and read) so far that shows you have mastered the game enough to know what you are talking about, and more importantly, reviewing the game for what it is, not what some gamers (more accurately, reviewers) want the game to be. After watching your numerous reviews of yours, I can unequivocally say that you are the best objective and even fun reviewer around. Please keep up the excellent work.

I think the in-game text is worth some complements. Many people don’t really see or care about the text you collected for every single character in the game. It is wild that even a random yaoguai you met on your way has its own origin story created and written for you. Whether you care about their background stories or not, the effort BMW devs made is crazy.

I'm like, 30-40% of the way with almost 20hrs, Morty just goes and 100% it, what a gamer!

as for the game, it's amazing! comparing to GoW Ragnarok - it's not as good a cinematic experience as that one, but definitely better combat IMHO. combat feels like a mix of Bloodborne (dodge based), ghost of tsushima (stances) and GoW (transformation and overall mechanics).

so far, would recommend 9.5/10

Even with 300k subs, still criminally underrated channel.

[AnotherMondayMusic]

Saying this games isn’t “hard” is a little misleading. To the average gamer this will definitely be a difficulty spike. Respect for the 100% though!

Love your review of this game. I think this is exactly why this game is popular. I have seen some reviews talking about not understanding why this game is popular than other souls like or action games, could it be just being a very fun game? I grew up with this material and it's just a nostalgic to play this game. Thank you for talking about why you enjoy it and also the cons of the game.

The invisible walls bothered me less and less as I played the game. I realized that most of the time behind the invisible walls was an extended part of the background that makes the game even more beautiful and immersive. Its less about lazy level design and more to serve as an extension of the landscape. it makes the levels feel more open and expansive.

When I want a good, concise but thorough review I always come here. Not disappointed this time either :) Thank you! Great job as always.

After Dragons Dogma 2 extremely disappointing enemy variety seeing how wukong takes this aspect to the next level really solidified it as one of the best action games for me, this aspect has been a constant disappointment in so many triple A games outside of fromsoft.
