The media's attempt to sabotage or discredit Black Myth Wukong appears to have played into the hands of the game's supporters. When a game is attacked with irrational or flawed criticisms, it often sparks curiosity among players who want to judge for themselves. This phenomenon has been observed repeatedly in the gaming community, where negative coverage inadvertently boosts sales and visibility.
Furthermore, the game’s Chinese origins and the fact that it's based on a centuries-old Chinese myth have created additional barriers and misconceptions in the Western media landscape. Yet, for many players, the gameplay, visuals, and story are enough to validate its success and popularity.
