For me is

  • Sifu
  • WOW: Mists of Pandaria
  • Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom

I especially love the Chinese architecture and history,for example, sort of the buildings in the image below.

what about you guys?

@shellcase86: wow, that's definenally cool! A western wasteland punk style Monkey King, I like it. Also, I can see a lot of games on this game, such as Black Myth and Showa American Story, which I believe are inspired by Ensalved.

I've been playing a lot of Sifu since being done with Disgaea 5, very enjoyable though I wish the camera remained panned out even after combat, in fairness it does what God of War (IV) doesn't, and knows when to adjust the camera enough for combat. Currently trying to get the 'no death complete run'.

My only major other complaint is I wish the game had more stages and enemy variety, but it is a small game developed by a small team.

If someone only wanted to beat the game once and didn't care for a perfect run? Sifu can be beaten in a weekend, assuming one keeps cool, learns the mechanics/ attack patterns, and can learn from past mistakes.

Not everyone likes that kind of challenge but considering I've done far more challenging gaming experiences in recent memory (Solo'd Iceborne Fatalis/ GnG: Resurrection Knight) Sifu was not so bad, now a perfect run? . . I'll get back to you on that, lol.

I think too many people are brushing Sifu off due to the talk of difficulty, yes it does demand your full attention, but the game is not cheap, it punishes incompetence and the unprepared, that's a huge difference. Even if you are unsure? try it out, the combat alone is very satisfying, offering a lot of utility.

@RSM-HQ: Exactly. The challenge of the game is what makes it fun to play.

F.I.S.T: Forged in Shadow Torch comes to mind and I personally like that game more so. Asura's Wrath is another game I'll add here that I like as far as Chinese elements goes.

Hmmm not sure.

Jade Empire was pretty cool. Lots of neat Chinese mythology in there, and of course kung fu haha.

I just bought Warhammer 3 Total War and while I haven't tried it out yet, there is a Chinese-inspired faction that looks pretty cool. I think the faction leader can turn into a dragon!

Oh and kind of a small thing, but one of the Battlefields (3 or 4, I think) had a level in Shanghai iirc and it was one of my favorite maps. Also the Chinese army was represented in the game which I thought was kind of cool.

@davillain: F.I.S.T GOT TWO VOTES! I also really like the art style of the game, which makes me think of many classic Hong Kong movies.

For Asura, in a sense, Asura comes from a god in Indian Buddhism, and the overall style of this game is more Japanese. Anyways, Japanese culture does have similarities with Chinese culture, sometimes I like chinese better, LOL...

@mrbojangles25: That's Fair. For the All Totalwars game series, Three kindoms is a must mention

Sleeping Dogs even though the game is set in Hong Kong it has Chinese elements especially with it's DLC called Nightmare in North Point. It uses some Chinese mythology from urban legend horror creatures like the Yaoguai.

Haha oh wow how could I forget Three Kingdoms!!!! Thanks for reminding me.

It was a great game, but not my favorite if I am being blunt.

Enslaved and Jade Empire are two that immediately spring to mind.
