Spoiler

1. the first game episode, black wind mountain, takes 3-5 hours to pass (for most bosses and main story). And the other maps can be 5 times larger..
2. He is fairly skilled in ARPG, but needed 35 hours to pass main story with only necessary exploration.
3. The game has a very interesting way to fill westerners with some basic understanding of the mythology and ancient novel, including different styles of cartoons....
4. There is 40% game content hidden, waiting to be explored by the players
5. There are more than 50 spirit skills to learn (the powerful damage skills given by absorbing monster's soul). AND a lot of full transformation skills (where you can transform and fight).
6. He played for 70 hours, but still there are many bosses/quests hidden that he failed to find.
7. There are lots of art and details in places for players to explore - if you are interested in history, nature and architecture, you will spend hours to enjoy the details. He described this game as "tourist simulator".
8. There are many "photo spots" to be explored - good for someone who likes to have some coffee when playing.
9. Because of point 1, his biggest concern is that in big maps it is very easy for people to get lost. This is consistent with all reviews we have seen today.
10. The game has its own interesting mechanics for 2nd run after the first throughplay
11. The Chinese voice acting is god level - it is highly recommended for non-chinese speakers to use Chinese voice and English sub

In an interview with IGN, Game Producer Feng Ji confirmed that Black Myth: Wukong would require “at least 15 hours of playtime” to complete. It wasn’t elaborated whether this was just to tackle the game’s story or whether that was for a completionist run, however.

Nah. I don't speak that language, why the fuck would I listen to it when I can use English?

I kinda feel like the title is spoilers to an extent... it's fun going into a game not knowing how long to expect it to be

Open your MIND bro

 

[Kamykazi]

why the fuck would I listen to it when I can use English?

Because, as stated in the sentence you quoted, the voice acting is better in Chinese?

On the contrary, i was happy knowing Hellblade 2 was only 4 hours long.

Sometimes its good to know the length of turd you need to snap off.
