Is Black Myth: Wukong like God of War or Souls? ft. David Jaffe | Sacred Symbols+, Episode 401

"Black Myth: Wukong" is the world's video game of the moment, with 10 million sold in just a few days beating even "Elden Ring." Is this game worth the hype? What's new and great and not so great about the game design and setting? And there's lots of debate about whether it's a "Souls-like" or similar to "God of War." So Gene Park is hosting this special episode of Sacred Symbols Plus and asked the creator of God of War for his thoughts on the design philosophy of "Wukong," and breaking down this game's design. Note: We are aware of the audio issues. Unfortunately they were not discovered until after recording was complete.

Great show but Jaffe’s sound is sh*t…

DAVID JAFFE GAMES

Honestly, the audio SEEMED fine on my end but it was being blown out on the recording end (and it was fine for Gene as well but I was not looking at the line...the audio line...whatever that's called). Usually Colin is there to catch it but neither of us had any clue, we were high as fuck, and both of us were also busy breaking totally different but still wholly illegal laws using our other monitors and thus we were preoccupied. Next time tho, we know what to look for :). Apologies.

I can't listen to Jaffe. This guy calls us assholes. We'll I just had several family and friends lose jobs. People can't pay bills and those asshole is like I hate Republicans. If you really care besides sitting behind a computer and Being, Mother Teresa. People can't afford anything, losing jobs , 2 wars but hey they are nice and don't say mean things. This is the problem with the usa. Vibes are better then actually policy. This people that stream live in a fake world and not the real middle class who is suffering. Democrats, the party of moral high ground I forgot.

Been seeing stuff about this game all week so glad y’all talked about the soul comparison because it doesn’t look it at all. I can’t wait to listen!

Should I get this game or not…. I wish it just had great level design….. bad level design kills it for me. It’s one of the best parts of fromsoft games. Fromsoft actually made me See/realize what good level design even WAS!!!

Great episode more please just figure out the audio

i think we need to introduce a new subgenre: souls-lite. cause you have rogue-like and rogue-lite and they both convey kind of different approaches to the same thing. this, sekiro, and stellar blade i would put in the souls-lite category because they don't have the corpse run mechanic.

Jaffe and Gene got my through the day. Thanks boys.

lmfao Jaffe's audio is terrible but man does it ever make his soundboard hilarious

Directional Joy

Please Jaffe, don’t speak of Indiana Jones having movies without Harrison Ford… Chris Pratt is busy enough as it is. 😉

Napoleon in Rags

I like Jaffe and his energy and knowledge he brings but he’s the kind of person that is best in small doses…that personality can really burn me out fast

Love Jaffe and Gene Park together on this! And I'm sure Colin is relieved, thinking, "thank god i've got some team members that actually p[layed this thing."

Dion

Fucking love this duo 😍

Why is Jaffe such an asshole towards us - half the audience of LSM?!

Anthony Mercado

Anyone who wants the US to continue under this “democratic” regime doesn’t care about the US. How is this guy calling republicans A holes? Never watching these guys again.
