>Wondered why would the CCP fund a game promoting religion (Buddhism) since the original Journey to the West made fun of everything except Buddha & Buddhism>Beat the game and get the 'true ending'>They turned the monke into Mao Zedong of the Chinese demons >The big reveal is that heaven and Buddha himself have a mossad level of control over the universe >Wukong's true goal is to die and reincarnate as nameless monke to get rid of the controlling band and lead his demon revolution army to kill Buddha Between this and GoW, which one take a shit on their source materials harder?

>>735095705The longer I live, the more I notice that the world is awash in stories, books, movies, games, ect. glorifying rebellion against an omnipotent authority figure.I can't stop noticing the repeating pattern.
journey to the west and wukong has always been a mockery of buddhism though? they portray monks as greedy fat retards and wukong defeats them with taoist magic
>>735097743because there are constant fluctuations between spiritual/warrior and mercantile class as nations/empires go through stable and unstable periods - warrior/spiritual class returns society to stable and mercantile/fem class makes it unstable and corrupt again
>>735097743Youre a fucking spastic retard who thinks basic conceots are your "patterns" that make you a smart boy for "noticing">I keep noticing the sun comes up every dya and over time the plants grow taller, could the be commected? Curious...Fucking wretch of a retard
>>735095705>original Journey to the West made fun of everything except Buddha & BuddhismYou didn't read anything. The living hell, Lion Camel Ridge, is near buddha's feet, but no one gives a fuck about it. Moreover, most yaoguais are buddha's or some heaven servents.
>>735098362Okay smart boy, why is it that way and not the reverse?Why are the stories not about a powerful authority crushing rebellion?
