AAA games are expensive, multi-year projects. Completing such an endeavor requires a ton of faith and persistant backing that cannot be taken for granted in a developing country. The success of this game fills me with hope.
- latexr 2y ago> Here in Southeast Asia we have a wealth of myths and histories that barely made it into popular culture. This is definitely not one of them, though. Journey to the West is the opposite of obscure. Dragon Ball, one of the most popular franchises ever is overtly inspired by it and even freaking lego made a show about it. If you’re going to make an action game about an eastern myth, this is the safest, most obvious choice you can make.
- bbkane 2y agoDo you have any favorite myths or histories you could link to? I'm under-exposed to a lot of culture I'm slowly learning about as an adult haha.
