How Black Myth: Wukong Got Robbed at The Game Awards

The Game Awards Show Their True Colors From the first trailer, Black Myth: Wukong captivated the gaming world with jaw-dropping visuals, stunning combat mechanics, and a narrative rooted in rich Chinese mythology. Game Science delivered something we rarely see in AAA gaming—a unique blend of artistry and action that didn’t feel watered down for mass appeal. Now compare that to Astro Bot, which, sure, was charming and polished, but let’s be real—it’s a platformer that could have come out on the PS4 and no one would have noticed. What Astro Bot lacks is the cultural depth and sheer ambition that Wukong brought to the table. Let’s toss some truth bombs into the ring, eh? Sales Figures: Wukong sold over 10 million copies in its first two months, dwarfing Astro Bot’s mediocre 3 million. Player Engagement: At its peak, Wukong had […]

Legacy Gaming Media’s Hit Job on Black Myth: Wukong?

GAMING MEDIA WENT BANANAS WHILE GAMERS EMBRACED THE MONKEY KING The world of gaming is no stranger to controversy, but Black Myth: Wukong’s nomination for Game of the Year (GOTY) at The Game Awards has sparked a bizarre media pile-on that’s hard to ignore. If you’ve dared to Google “Black Myth: Wukong nominated for Game of the Year,” you’ve likely noticed something suspicious—almost every major gaming outlet seems to be running with the same angle: Black Myth: Wukong is the “lowest-rated game” to get a GOTY nod. Let’s unpack why this narrative stinks worse than a rotting peach. THE "LOWEST-RATED GOTY NOMINEE SMEAR CAMPAIGN Gaming outlets love to harp on Black Myth: Wukong's Metascore, repeatedly labeling it as undeserving of its nomination. But here’s the kicker: that “low score” wasn’t driven by player reviews—it was driven by the very critics […]

THE BEGINNING OF EXE GAMES The internet's dark corners have birthed countless nightmares, but few have left a mark like Sonic.exe.Emerging from the fertile ground of early 2010s creepypasta culture, this fan-made horror tale turned everyone’s favorite blue hedgehog into a sinister, bloodthirsty entity.With its haunting backstory and corrupted game visuals, Sonic.exe introduced a wave of unsettling "what-if" scenarios for beloved franchises.The story blended childhood nostalgia with deep unease, paving the way for a whole genre of ".exe" horrors that have gripped the gaming world.

Dragon Age The Veilguard Failed

Why the New Dragon Age is Failing with Flying Colors

Image Credit: Dragon Age: The Veilguard | BioWare | Electronic Arts Welcome to Dragon Age: The Veilguard, a title that's been in development for almost 10 years, estimated between $80 million and $200 million to make, and hyped as the next epic chapter in the Dragon Age saga while (twist ending) in reality it might just be the franchise’s very undoing. Because in a world where Baldur’s Gate 3 has already proven that players can have meaningful choices and gritty, raw freedom, The Veilguard only seems interested in talking down to their audience while shoveling their Concord-sized agenda down the unwilling throats of gamers everywhere. While I'm not going to sit and pretend that every single facet of this game was a complete disaster, I can say with unabashed certainty that, in a game that's supposed to be an immersive […]

The Best Upcoming Fall Anime of 2024

Welcome to the wild world of anime in 2024, where titans finally fell, demons continue to be slain, and every other show seems to have someone stuck in a video game or reincarnated into something new. It’s been a year packed with climaxes, cliffhangers, and comebacks—whether we wanted them or not. The anime landscape has never been more chaotic, with long-running series reaching their emotional conclusions, while a flood of cookie-cutter isekai tries to fill the gaps. But hey, who are we to complain when we’re still glued to our screens like it’s day one? If you're the type of fan who's been around long enough to watch Naruto graduate to Boruto and still argue whether Attack on Titan is the best anime of all time, 2024 has given you a lot to chew on. So grab your popcorn (or […]

The devs must’ve decided we weren’t suffering enough because they just dropped the Funeral Home map, along with some game tweaks to make your supernatural detective work a bit more... intense. Let's break down everything you need to know about this update, from surviving the new map to exorcising the latest ghoulish guests (who apparently didn't get the memo that they're dead). What’s New in v1.5.0? Besides the Funeral Home, the devs have brought in some subtle game improvements—because dying to the unknown just wasn’t spicy enough. If you’re looking for minor tweaks like UI updates or ghost behavior improvements, you’ll find them. But let’s face it, you’re probably here for the big […]

The Future of Palworld

Palworld Sticks to "Pay to Play" - Bold Move or Missed Opportunity? What’s up, fellow gamers? Ayefkay here, and today, we’re diving into a game that’s been on everyone's radar for a hot minute—Palworld. If you haven’t heard of it, lift that rock off your head and let me fill you in! Palworld is like if Pokémon and Breath of the Wild had a baby, and that cute little baby had access to firearms and an over-the-top survival mode. Yeah, it’s that kind of game. I’m talking about adorable little creatures (or “Pals,” as they call them) doing wholesome things like farming one minute and firing rocket launchers into the face of your enemies the next. And guess what? It’s not going free to play. That’s right. Despite recent trends of games going full F2P (cough Warzone cough), Palworld developers […]

2024 DEI-Dumpster Fires: Concord, Dustborn, and Suicide Squad

Hey there, fellow gamers! It’s your friendly neighborhood asshat, Ayefkay, back again to spill the tea on the gaming industry. The thing I love most about running reportafk.com? I get to talk about everything I love—and hate—about games. So today, we’re gonna have a little chat about the recent affronts to gaming —Concord, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, and Dustborn and why they face-planted so hard you could hear it from deep space. Let's dive into why these games fell flatter than Alyssa Mercante! 1. Concord – A Disjointed Space Mess First up is Concord, a game that claimed to bring us a fresh take on the space-shooter genre. The activists pretending to be gamers were absolutely buzzing when the teaser dropped, with all the murky and androgynous character models aplenty, but then the game was released...and uh, where’s […]

Demon Slayer Anime Review

Demon Slayer: Why We Love It

Demon Slayer: The Anime That Set the Bar—And Then Decided to Leave Us Hanging Visual Masterpiece: Art That Redefines Anime Let’s be real—Demon Slayer isn’t just another anime; it’s a visual tour de force that sets new standards for the industry. From the very first episode, it’s clear that Ufotable went all out, delivering animation that feels more like a cinematic experience than a TV show. The blend of traditional Japanese art with cutting-edge digital effects creates a world that’s as vibrant as it is immersive. The Water Breathing techniques that we're introduced to early on, with their stunning waves and fluid motion, are a perfect example of how this show takes visual storytelling to the next level. Every battle is a spectacle, with dynamic camera angles, breathtaking particle effects, and an attention to detail that makes each fight feel […]
