Black Myth: Wukong

[lee32uk]

Not using cjs Keys again I used them for Dragons Dogma 2 and it took ages for the key to arrive!!

So this time they sent me a code for the wrong game

Black Moth: Wukong



I will close the door on the way out

How are 7900xtx owners coping at 1440p?

I'm a tier down on a 7900XT and it's running nicely for me, never drops below 60fps and hovers between 85-110 most of the time.

This is using a mix of cinematic/very high/high settings, no raytracing, running at 1440p with FSR at 75.

Yes ray tracing, no path tracing

Please be aware you are using ray tracing, the wording used in game should be “path tracing”.

It's all monkey business with you two, isn't it.

You could say it's a bit bananas

I've got to control my time in this game because theres an absolute wedge of games coming out imminently that I will need to divide my time over

Star Wars Outlaws on the 30th
Age of Mythology on the 4th
Space Marine 2 on the 5th
God of War Ragnarok on the 19th
Ara on the 24th.

Busy gaming period coming up !

Phenomenal game, on chapter 2 so far after ~10 hours, the final boss is a pain in the backside and spent a few hours beating my head against a wall it seems.

I think I'm at this boss now. Cause he's doing my head in

 

[t2na]

I'm about 5 hours in so far, unbelievably fun game. The combat is so enjoyable once you figure out combos that work. Definitely pays to be more aggressive in this game.

 

[TNA]

Happy to see everyone having fun. Will have to grab it once I get my 32" 4K Alienware in the near future

How's controller play on the game? Have always been kb/m but fancy being able to pick up again on the steamdeck once done one play through

It says at the start to use one for best experience.

The story is bobbins
Game reminds me of Sekiro expect dodges instead of parries are the key (and no grapple)
Looks good, I used 'Hardware Unboxed' settings and 'Medium' Raytracing.

At 4K, with DLSS set to 62% (Quality) and most settings on 'Cinematic' other than shadows (High), Hair (High) and Global Illumination (High) it runs at an average of 60fps with Frame Generation turned off.

That's a 13700K, 32GB Ram and a 4090.

RTX HDR does seem to work:

On

Off:

You can see some of the lifted shadows have retained more detail and illumination is more obvious on the rocks. The photos were taken in manual mode for ref so the exact same exposure.



Also someone has released a mod to remove the over-sharpening

UltrawidePatches/Black Myth Wukong at main · Lyall/UltrawidePatches

A repository of ultrawide game patches that make use of the excellent SUWSF patcher. - Lyall/UltrawidePatches

Though doesn't seem to work for me, maybe it doesn't

Why do I enjoy playing as an aggro monkey so much?

Don't forget to update DLSS if you haven't already, apparently the game shipped with an old version

It made zero difference on benchmarks

Fair enough but no sense using an old version right? I was thinking more in terms of image quality than any performance gains.
