To me it's not just that Jin's story is complete, it's that we explored all of Tsushima. A new area with a new protagonist makes perfect sense. What this game will really come down to is the gameplay. the first's missions were extremely repetitive, so if they add in some new variety I think we could have an all-time classic on our hands.

i agree on what you’re saying. I’ve no problem with female characters if they are done right with good storytelling not this forced dei esg that we getting now .
While I agree that making the games center around "the ghost" rather than a character open a lot of possibilities as far as making it a franchise, I hope it'll remain in Japan. Unlike A.C. which was always pretty agnostic to the location in the story itself. The ghost is deeply tied to the values and culture of Japan, so the ghost won't really work outside of it. The first story was something that could only work if you were in Japan. So I hope they'll stick to it even if it means the franchise can't be a never-ending sequel machine that just comes out every few years on a cycle.

The stories of the Ghost could spread to Korea during the two Japanese invasions of Korea and a Korean takes the mantle of the Ghost and it spreads from there. Otherwise the series would be quite restrictive and can’t do much….. This might alienate some Japanese fans but if the series wants to expand outside of Japan this is the perfect way to do it.
Bro, nobody was skeptical when Ezio took over for Altiar. People were on board since the fantastic AC2 reveal trailer showing an assassin hiding in a masquerade.
I agree with what you said about “The Ghost” but I disagree in your analysis about Jin. Jin starts out as a bland character but ends up becoming such a well written character who works a complex balance of the samurai he trained to become his whole life vs. the ghost he is now. He was an exceptional main character and for many of us Jin & The Ghost were one & the same. Great video though, looking forward to more of your coverage of Ghost 2
The gender doesn't bother me. The last game ended on such a cliffhanger with Jon's uncle saying he informed the Shogun about Jins new persona and that he would be sending samurai after him. Plus there was more Mongol invasions after Tsushima where they landed on other islands so we could have had Jin chasing them down on a new island while trying to avoid the Shoguns army. Ill still be getting and like the idea of the Ghost legend living on but I just don't think Jins story was finished
I think first they will make a few more "ghost" games with different protagonists, kind of like assassins creed, but eventually might make a continuation of jins story, that way the second jin game will have much more gameplay improvements comoared to the first game, instead of just the smaller improvements the second game will probably have
The best way to actually close off Jin is have us play him in the epilogue in the beginning of the game close the story off then transition 300 years later as Atsu.
Why does everyone want there to be a rivalry lol, they both have similar game structure and can coexist. I mean, ghost took a lot of ideas from origins and other ac games for instance. The fact that we have 2 cool samurai games in the same era coming out in the same year should be fun not something to put down.
@@adarshsridhar6051 I'm just saying that Sucker Punch has beef with AC at this point. Tbh, I don't hate AC shadows because I haven't played it yet. I don't hate or love depending on recommendations, only on personal experiences. Hope you understand
I'm pretty sure it's just gonna follow ghost 1, but it would be a smart choice fir sucker ounch to make or release a jin sequal around thar time, to boost the movie
They are probably expanding the franchise, doing a "ghost of some new region" and tying it to the mythos, rather than the character. Just like the fallout show is its own story set in that world, and not a direct adaptation. It might work, the fallout show was really good.
Honestly the best way to finish Jin’s story at this point would be through legend. The shogunate wants him dead, the people want him to hunt the mongols, if his story was continued, it would ruin the ‘legend’ aspect of his character. I think it would be awesome if, in the next game, you get two completely different accounts of Jin’s story from two different people, as opposed to one concrete answer
I guess, and maby even better one of them talks about jin in a "he was six feet tall, with horns on his head, and had a horce, who can straight from the shadows" and the other knows jin was just a human, not a demon, and had allies, like Yuna, and without then, he woudnt have lasted that long, but both see him as the ghoat, the person who saved the people of tsushima from the mongols, and main land japan.
We could even discover the ghost clan in thos game, maby jin had made it after ghost 1, and hundreds of years after his death it's still around, and maby even get to meet his descendants.
Maybe they'll upload 1 or 2 more games before continuing Jin Sakai story of surviving against Shogunate army, though there might be drawbacks as the ghost initial purpose was to protect their people including the samurai, killing his own people might be leading the way to development of insanity in jin;s mind which might be interesting by itself, psychological effects of just trying to survive.
Imagine jin defending the mainland from the second mongol invasion in a even ghostly manner, finally going against the samurai and shogunate and a mission on the sea boarding each mongol ship while a really strong storm continues to ravage them
@@Kratos_Messi7050 while it could be a sequel it could also be pretty linear and thus.. boring, invasion of tsushima historically took place in 1281 and the game took place in 1274 which is when first invasion of iki happened, in the second invasion shogunate army was prevalent which means jin wouldn't get much or rather any chance to fight openly in the war like samurai's did (even though they fought with bows and other weapons rather than primarily katana), honestly the story for jin after the war has less leeway for imagination considering the game wanted to be as historically accurate as possible, any more and they would diverge from the original idea of being historically accurate
I think the story of Jin is pretty much concluded- he hides from the shogun as a ghost till the end of his life. I think we’ll get a Mythic Tale that will be focused around Jin, and then we’ll probably learn how he died. My guess is this would unlock either the ghost stance or poison related upgrade
Absolutely loved Ghost of Tsushima and am looking forward to this even though we won't be playing as Jin Sakai anymore. I hope they put in Jin's Ghost Armour as a reward for a Mythic Tale or something. Here's me being hopeful.
GoT was my favorite game of all time. I really hope the sequel would keep the a grounded sense of what it means to be the Ghost. Moreover I’d hope to see improvements when it comes to storytelling, stealth, and the exploration system which I have found lacking in certain points such as repetitive tales, surface level stealth, and a pretty basic but still powerful story. I absolutely loved the first game but I’m quite excited to see what the sequel can develop from the first!
Loved the game as well and I am hoping for a ton of improvements to the stealth and especially some of the more janky movement that the original game had when traversing the world.
It would be a missed opportunity not to hint at the Ghost of Yotei being inspired by the Ghost of Tsushima in the game with collectibles and environmental storytelling that shows Jin became a legend
is the ghost gonna be like the avatar where this one person carries the name and legacy and is passed down to other people through wispers or something
It would be the most likely case. GoY took place years after GoT. By then, surely the legend of The Ghost would've spread across Japan, making The Ghost a symbol or an idea.
5:11 I always thought the idea of a western assassins creed game would go crazy, especially after seeing the clash of the city and the west in red dead.
This is such a well made video that while watching it i fully expected it to he a 100000k subs plus channel but when i saw the sub count i was beyong surprised. You earned yourself a new subscriber! You are gonna be big one day
Man Thank you, I was worried about the sequel as being a different game and a protagonist but you actually made me think new way. Even tho I love assassin's creed but I can't deny that its a banger.
Seeing the love for the Ghost series since we can rightfully expand beyond Tsushima at this point is wonderful as I just recently finished the first game myself. As for the video you've created; You inspire me. This is an awesome thing you've made and I'm all for more traction for this video since you nailed your thoughts well! Can't wait for next year and the release of Yotei.
I’m honestly so happy to see us move on to a new protagonist and setting. Jin’s story felt complete to me, and didn’t really end on a cliffhanger. The new character makes me happy to think that one day we might get a ghost game set in a different culture/country, like China or India.
Awesome video bra, as jy ooit weer 'n playthrough van Ghost of Tsushima wil doen try dit in Japanees. Dit verander die karakters heeltemal, die Japanese voice actors is so goed. Ek stem saam, moerse amped vir die volgende een en die toekoms van die franchise. Hou aan met die videos bra, ons het meer SA creators nodig!
5:30 I think keeping it in Japan and sticking to very specialized regions with immense detail is the best thing they could do. Ubisoft gave us beautiful depictions of Egypt, Greece and England/Norway. Not entirely accurate... but beautiful. The problem is the maps are so big and empty that you have to be given a boat to traverse them. Tsushima was much smaller, but it was detailed. You didn't have to travel far to find something exciting. It should be kept like that.
What a great video. Congratulations. I didn't think about it in that franchise way. Now one is not just excited for this game, but for the nexts to come. I have my problems with the first game, but I'm hyped for this sequel. Expecting to see more the upcoming months till the release.
I’m less upset about not playing as Jin, and more upset about not seeing Yuna again. What a great relationship they built for them. Loved Ghost of Tsushima so very much. I remember being so amazed with how much better it wound up being than I was initially expecting. It’s the first game I’ve ever cared to platinum. The story and gameplay were both phenomenal and I CAN NOT WAIT to see where they go with this one.
This game could be even better than ghost of tsushima, they could do the same thing ubi did years ago with assassin's creed 1 and 2 where they had replaced altair with ezio, and in that game as tome went one we started to learn of the legend of altair and his amazing achievements, they could do that through mythic tails, learning how to do the heavenly strike, or unlock the long bow etc, or maby thats gow you unlock the kasaregame she uses in the trailer, and maby even have a small ghost clan you can discover, that jin formed after ghost 1, and 300 years after himself death there are still are multiple ghost clan locations acroos japan, that would add so much world buolding, the possibilities are endless, I really hope they do something like this or similar, because if not then...... it would be awful.
I 100% think they are going to reference Jin in the game somehow, be it with tombs, or the legend of him being so large that people wonder if it’s still him killing people as an actual ghost lol
When I heard “hunter” I thought it was about someone hunting Jin Sakai in Yotei after Jin left his mark on Tsushima, but then I learned from the lore that it was 400 years later. (I’m bad with timelines)
I thought they handled Yuma and lady Masako pretty well. I know the actor is pretty cringe, but I trust SP enough that hopefully I can separate the art from the artist.
The thing i am hopeing the most for is for sucker punch to inplement chaoices more into the game. The suttel things in G.O.T. made it amazing. When you walk slowly the NPCs also do. Equally diverse combat assassination- sword fight-bowing. Enemys are spaced enought to go for full stelth clear- chalanging them makes them gather around and you have different stances for different enemies- traps almost everywhere so if you are clever you can full clear a camp with 5 arrows. Answering and asking question you chose. Be that its only 2 options, it felt like this was your game. You play the way you feel so you get connected. Ghost was an easy 9.5 then but if they keep the game generally similar and implemented weight to the chooces and dialog than damn 11. I don't think i will be able to find a game that will score so highly in so many different categories.
I do hope they do come back to Jin's story at some point in the future. There's still a 2nd Mongol invasion on different islands and the fact that the Shogun is also sending out Samurai against Jin.
Sucker Punch has a good track record, they don't like to milk their ips like ubi, and sony has a history of letting their top studios do what they want, they could have continued making Infamous games it would probably sell well, but they wanted something new and made GoT, and now wanted to continue with the Ghost series but something new again, and made GoY next game could as the video says be modern day, or even better imagine a Ghost in 1960 were the Yakuza had the most members, or even considering the beautiful art direction of Ghost imagine one in the 80s or 90s i would be crazy
Aside from somehow containing Jin's death it's hard to imagine his story being any more complete. He save Tsushima, overcame the limitations of the era, and reckoned with the sins of his past. From a literary standpoint he did everything. Including more would feel like the shallow hollowing out of his character for money. If someone is upset by the idea that they chose a new protagonist then they would be furious if they released a mediocre game for another crack at the wallet. Edited for clarity
@@gnarlyboyjai she will have her own as she progress in the story for sure. i was thinking more about what if Jin's ghost armor if it's worn by someone with a different build
I have been a fan of ninja games going back to Tenchu on Ps1. Ghost gave me that feeling of being a kid again gaming. I absolutely love Ghost and the 2nd addition will be amazing. Can’t wait!!!!!!!
Also, I don't fully agree with your comment regarding Jin's character. While Jin wasn't made to be the most expressive, I think the game accomplished it's goal. Jin was a samurai, a man of few words, but with snippets here and there, we also know he's good at different forms of art, and has a very good sense of humor as well. I think the game also gives the player the chance to express themselves with the masks, helmets, and headbands, and to a lesser extent, the dialogue options you sometimes get.
I'm pretty sure it's the other way around. I remember years ago ubisoft said ninjas were boring, but after the release of tsushima, now they made ac shadows.
Imagine a ghost game but in modern Japan with jhon wick style, gun fu game play, with wepons, combat and swords, by the way they have the best engine to make a jhon wick style game
Sucker Punch… I beg of you. Please make legends 2. I loved the single player mode but after running up legends with my boys I never had a gaming experience like that. It was beautiful. I even met an amazing person on the matchmaking who became our fourth on that and so many other games. In a market that encourages you to shoot and fight each other, sucker punch gave us the option to bow. Brilliant.
I mean it also makes sense they wanted to do something different. GoT 2 would be mongol invasion of Tsushima 2 electic boogaloo with old "punished" Jin. I think we'll eventually get to it, but doing the same things, in the same place but slightly better graphics and slightly different story 5 years later would be a bit disappointing. Give it time, let Daisuke get a bit older to fit the old man theme better 😂
Let's take a moment to reflect on Rdr2 and how we all wanted John Marston... And how Arthur Morgan became one of the best protagonist in video game history.
I was kind of looking forward to a Ghost 2 w/ Jin. I wanted to see sort of what we saw in AC where Ezio build his Assassin's Guild, in Jin sort of building this elite force of ninja. To see what the Shogun could send after him, introducing new enemies that aren't necessarily all Mongol, but also elite Samurai hunting you as a Jin.
My idea for a third game: Ghost of Kyoto, set during the collapse of the Heian period (100 years before Tsushima) and the rise of the samurai clans to power. The MC would have been a former bandit turned retainer, and eventually serve the Kamakura Shogunate, thus becoming the first samurai.
Regarding your statements about the Ghost leaning into mythical elements, there were plenty of mythical elements in the first game. The wind was Jin's Father's spirit, the birds were his mother's. He fought a Tengu. All of the Mythic Tales turn out to have some hint of truth to them. The Legends mode is even hinted as being factual in Jin's world (given that we receive the white Kitsune mask from the Legends Mode as thanks for telling Uta the story of "The Fire Spirits of Yarikawa.") I think having animal companions is relatively mild to some of the mythicism we see in the 1st game.
I'm very excited for this game. I thought the sequel would be set two years after the first with the second invasion but then I thought about it and I figured that between the main game and DLC we've learnt all we can about Jin's personality and history. I like this idea of a new protagonist every game a lot Although I wonder who will be the Ezio of this franchise lol. The game looks amazing so far and considering it's a revenge story so it's going to be very tragic. Getting alot of blue eyed samurai vibes and that's an amazing show
The best way to actually close off Jin is have us play him in the epilogue in the beginning of the game close the story off then transition 300 years later as Atsu.
I think it’s a good move. I hope they honor Jin in this next game a mention him as inspiration for this new character. But excited for this new game and for where the franchise can go
I think it’s great they decided to make a new character for the next game. Jin’s story is done, he, and we, explored all of Tsushima, unlocked all armors and sword kits. People are mad that Jin’s story won’t continue but what else could they do? We wouldn’t get anything new, we’d just be on Tsushima again. Btw I like to think of the gender change as a anima and animus of the gameplay or like a yin and yang. Jin’s character could be calm but emotional and this new character could be violent yet calculated in a sense, for example.
Maaaan, hearing about how the “Ghost of…” series could expand makes me want to see a future instalment to take place at the same time of the shinsengumi.
I wonder if this means in the future, there will be a Ghost game taking place outside Japan. Would love to see one taking place in Korea during the Joseon era.
Im not even mad. I just wanna follow a legendary side quest to obtain the ghost stance from jin. Learning that (whether killing or sparing his uncle is cannon) and how he lived his remaining life. Maybe hes like a local legend that people dont believe in anymore (like many of the side quests in tsushima(
Id like to see survival elements added to the game like hunting, and keeping your weapons in good condition. No need for for a hard-core survival sim, just a bit of an extra challenge.
I hope ac shadows go back to being non rpg and being a story heavy game which could focus a lot on character building rather than allowing people to buy an armor for money
Ghost of Tsushima and Kingdom come are the only games that scratched that historically accurate slash realistic itch I've been having and I cant wait to play KCD2 and GoY
The only question I have is how long until we get over being a samurai idk how they keep making it feel fresh after game 3. Until it just feels like Rise of the Ronan with guns in a Japanese city.
No No the ghost concept should only stay in Japan.I say that bcs if u think abt it Japan is a more than a nation it holds more if u include the culture and the mentality that the ppl had back then.Its an opposing force to the ghost ideology and u can always make the argument that Japan isnt the only place in the world where they hold/value honor thats why it can go beyond Japan but thats where my argument comes back in full circle that Japan is a character itself and we want to see how this ghost ideology shapes and twists the character of Japan and im 100% sure that ppl would be more interested if they followed the Japan setting more than any other setting for this ghost ideology that u wanted to to go even further beyond Japan.KEEP IT IN JAPAN
GoT wasn't solely focused on stealth IMO, there were missions where it was absolutely required but most of the time, the game was basically offering the player choice. Choice to enter fights head-on like a Samurai, or to use stealth like a shinobi would. I feel like i would have liked some lind of alignment chart for the player, or maybe indications of such in the path your Legend takes while it grows, because clearly it's a big deal in the story
Jin is the goat. I was done with Tsushima but not with jin. Would have loved to see him go explore. After a second game it would have been more fitting to do ghost of Yhotei
I'm hyped Ghost of Sushi is my favorite game of all time and sucker punch has never disappointed me so far also Duel wielding Katanas look sick af. Jin is such a good character and i get people will not like the switch to the new character because of that but I feel like Ghost of Tsushima was all about how Jin becomes the Ghost and not just following his whole life as the Ghost.
They could also just do a bigger dlc for this game and bring Jins story to an end. The map would already be there. If they need to, they could expand the map a little
What are your thoughts on the announcement? Btw I don't know if I am pronouncing Yōtei right lol
Someone probably already said this, but it's pronounced more like 'yoh-tay'. If you see 'i' after 'e' or 'u' after 'o', they denotes a long vowel in Japanese; essentially the title could've been written as Yōtē, Youtei, or like the one they went with Yōtei (since e with macron is quite uncommon).

The gender doesn't bother me. The last game ended on such a cliffhanger with Jon's uncle saying he informed the Shogun about Jins new persona and that he would be sending samurai after him.
Plus there was more Mongol invasions after Tsushima where they landed on other islands so we could have had Jin chasing them down on a new island while trying to avoid the Shoguns army.
Ill still be getting and like the idea of the Ghost legend living on but I just don't think Jins story was finished
Depending on how well the name game is received when it releases, it could come back
Im not worried. SP might make a sequel to jin sakai. Tho i don't think we gonna see tsushima island again and also that's why Jin's story is done
I think first they will make a few more "ghost" games with different protagonists, kind of like assassins creed, but eventually might make a continuation of jins story, that way the second jin game will have much more gameplay improvements comoared to the first game, instead of just the smaller improvements the second game will probably have
Completely agree. Could've made a story about him being older and passing the torch. And about making preparations for the 2nd invasion.
The best way to actually close off Jin is have us play him in the epilogue in the beginning of the game close the story off then transition 300 years later as Atsu.
Sucker Punch really has a beef with Assassin's Creed at this point
Lol 🤣
It literally the embodiment of "fine I'll do it myself"
They really don't, clowns just keep making up this false narrative.
Why does everyone want there to be a rivalry lol, they both have similar game structure and can coexist. I mean, ghost took a lot of ideas from origins and other ac games for instance. The fact that we have 2 cool samurai games in the same era coming out in the same year should be fun not something to put down.
@@adarshsridhar6051 I'm just saying that Sucker Punch has beef with AC at this point. Tbh, I don't hate AC shadows because I haven't played it yet. I don't hate or love depending on recommendations, only on personal experiences. Hope you understand
Y'all are forgetting that they been making a Live Action movie for years now. Im sure they will be telling what happens to Jin after GoT
I'm pretty sure it's just gonna follow ghost 1, but it would be a smart choice fir sucker ounch to make or release a jin sequal around thar time, to boost the movie
I don’t think the would do that cause now anyone who want to see the movie would have to play the game first to know what is going on
They are probably expanding the franchise, doing a "ghost of some new region" and tying it to the mythos, rather than the character. Just like the fallout show is its own story set in that world, and not a direct adaptation. It might work, the fallout show was really good.
Honestly the best way to finish Jin’s story at this point would be through legend. The shogunate wants him dead, the people want him to hunt the mongols, if his story was continued, it would ruin the ‘legend’ aspect of his character. I think it would be awesome if, in the next game, you get two completely different accounts of Jin’s story from two different people, as opposed to one concrete answer
I guess, and maby even better one of them talks about jin in a "he was six feet tall, with horns on his head, and had a horce, who can straight from the shadows" and the other knows jin was just a human, not a demon, and had allies, like Yuna, and without then, he woudnt have lasted that long, but both see him as the ghoat, the person who saved the people of tsushima from the mongols, and main land japan.
We could even discover the ghost clan in thos game, maby jin had made it after ghost 1, and hundreds of years after his death it's still around, and maby even get to meet his descendants.
Tho I still would love a jin sequal 😢
two reason to play ghost of yotei:
- possible jin sakai memory
- possible myamoto musashi cameo
Maybe they'll upload 1 or 2 more games before continuing Jin Sakai story of surviving against Shogunate army, though there might be drawbacks as the ghost initial purpose was to protect their people including the samurai, killing his own people might be leading the way to development of insanity in jin;s mind which might be interesting by itself, psychological effects of just trying to survive.
I think there is always a chance they go back and tell another Jin story!
Imagine jin defending the mainland from the second mongol invasion in a even ghostly manner, finally going against the samurai and shogunate and a mission on the sea boarding each mongol ship while a really strong storm continues to ravage them
@@Kratos_Messi7050 while it could be a sequel it could also be pretty linear and thus.. boring, invasion of tsushima historically took place in 1281 and the game took place in 1274 which is when first invasion of iki happened, in the second invasion shogunate army was prevalent which means jin wouldn't get much or rather any chance to fight openly in the war like samurai's did (even though they fought with bows and other weapons rather than primarily katana), honestly the story for jin after the war has less leeway for imagination considering the game wanted to be as historically accurate as possible, any more and they would diverge from the original idea of being historically accurate
I think the story of Jin is pretty much concluded- he hides from the shogun as a ghost till the end of his life.
I think we’ll get a Mythic Tale that will be focused around Jin, and then we’ll probably learn how he died.
My guess is this would unlock either the ghost stance or poison related upgrade
I could see it happening. Gears deviated from Marcus and now they are going back to him.
Absolutely loved Ghost of Tsushima and am looking forward to this even though we won't be playing as Jin Sakai anymore.
I hope they put in Jin's Ghost Armour as a reward for a Mythic Tale or something. Here's me being hopeful.
That would be sick
GoT was my favorite game of all time. I really hope the sequel would keep the a grounded sense of what it means to be the Ghost. Moreover I’d hope to see improvements when it comes to storytelling, stealth, and the exploration system which I have found lacking in certain points such as repetitive tales, surface level stealth, and a pretty basic but still powerful story. I absolutely loved the first game but I’m quite excited to see what the sequel can develop from the first!
Loved the game as well and I am hoping for a ton of improvements to the stealth and especially some of the more janky movement that the original game had when traversing the world.
Sucker punch making a “Ghost of Kyiv” would be hilarious 😂
It would be cool to play as Jedidiah Goldstriker.
It would be a missed opportunity not to hint at the Ghost of Yotei being inspired by the Ghost of Tsushima in the game with collectibles and environmental storytelling that shows Jin became a legend
I am sure they will reference Jin
is the ghost gonna be like the avatar where this one person carries the name and legacy and is passed down to other people through wispers or something
It would be the most likely case. GoY took place years after GoT. By then, surely the legend of The Ghost would've spread across Japan, making The Ghost a symbol or an idea.
5:17 gives me "man keeps fighting 30 years after war ended" aura
5:11 I always thought the idea of a western assassins creed game would go crazy, especially after seeing the clash of the city and the west in red dead.
Gives me some "Lady Snowblood" wibes, just perfect !
THIS! You are a man of culture I see. Not many people made the referrence to the Jidaigeki story of Lady Snowblood. You sir, earned my respect.
A man of culture I see...
This is such a well made video that while watching it i fully expected it to he a 100000k subs plus channel but when i saw the sub count i was beyong surprised. You earned yourself a new subscriber! You are gonna be big one day
@@Tubb-24 Thank you so much! I really appreciate this comment so much.
@@Trench-coat ofc bro keep going!
I knew your accent was familiar. Glad to see a saffa doing great content well done 💪🏻🇿🇦
Thanks brother, proudly a saffa! Thanks for watching.
Man Thank you, I was worried about the sequel as being a different game and a protagonist but you actually made me think new way. Even tho I love assassin's creed but I can't deny that its a banger.
My pleasure, I felt the same way so no stress. Thinking about it more actually got mr real excited! 👀 Thanks for watching!
@@Trench-coat ya
Seeing the love for the Ghost series since we can rightfully expand beyond Tsushima at this point is wonderful as I just recently finished the first game myself. As for the video you've created; You inspire me. This is an awesome thing you've made and I'm all for more traction for this video since you nailed your thoughts well!
Can't wait for next year and the release of Yotei.
Wow thanks for the lovely comment! I really appreciate it and thanks for watching.
I’m honestly so happy to see us move on to a new protagonist and setting. Jin’s story felt complete to me, and didn’t really end on a cliffhanger.
The new character makes me happy to think that one day we might get a ghost game set in a different culture/country, like China or India.
Awesome video bra, as jy ooit weer 'n playthrough van Ghost of Tsushima wil doen try dit in Japanees. Dit verander die karakters heeltemal, die Japanese voice actors is so goed. Ek stem saam, moerse amped vir die volgende een en die toekoms van die franchise. Hou aan met die videos bra, ons het meer SA creators nodig!
Dankie dude - appreciate dit! Ou jys heeltemal reg die Japanees dubbing is amazing!
I could imagine each one taking the mantle of the ghost being confused for one another, becoming a collective legend or myth passed down
5:30
I think keeping it in Japan and sticking to very specialized regions with immense detail is the best thing they could do.
Ubisoft gave us beautiful depictions of Egypt, Greece and England/Norway. Not entirely accurate... but beautiful. The problem is the maps are so big and empty that you have to be given a boat to traverse them.
Tsushima was much smaller, but it was detailed. You didn't have to travel far to find something exciting. It should be kept like that.
I kinda agree with you. I prefer smaller maps with more detail… I am kinda worried about Yōtei’s size!
we better get the ghost series of stealth games, imagine the possibility
What a great video. Congratulations. I didn't think about it in that franchise way. Now one is not just excited for this game, but for the nexts to come. I have my problems with the first game, but I'm hyped for this sequel. Expecting to see more the upcoming months till the release.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
We need a full game of The Ghost of Iki: Kenji Himura!
Haha. Kenji was the goat 😂
I’m less upset about not playing as Jin, and more upset about not seeing Yuna again. What a great relationship they built for them. Loved Ghost of Tsushima so very much. I remember being so amazed with how much better it wound up being than I was initially expecting. It’s the first game I’ve ever cared to platinum. The story and gameplay were both phenomenal and I CAN NOT WAIT to see where they go with this one.
I honestly couldn't be more excited to be able to step into the world of the Ghost once again.
same!
This game could be even better than ghost of tsushima, they could do the same thing ubi did years ago with assassin's creed 1 and 2 where they had replaced altair with ezio, and in that game as tome went one we started to learn of the legend of altair and his amazing achievements, they could do that through mythic tails, learning how to do the heavenly strike, or unlock the long bow etc, or maby thats gow you unlock the kasaregame she uses in the trailer, and maby even have a small ghost clan you can discover, that jin formed after ghost 1, and 300 years after himself death there are still are multiple ghost clan locations acroos japan, that would add so much world buolding, the possibilities are endless, I really hope they do something like this or similar, because if not then...... it would be awful.
I 100% think they are going to reference Jin in the game somehow, be it with tombs, or the legend of him being so large that people wonder if it’s still him killing people as an actual ghost lol
When I heard “hunter” I thought it was about someone hunting Jin Sakai in Yotei after Jin left his mark on Tsushima, but then I learned from the lore that it was 400 years later. (I’m bad with timelines)
I like your outlook on the idea of it that would be pretty cool if they continued the franchise
Thanks, appreciate it!
Musashi time period when he is becoming a legend and duel katana. Perfect!
I thought they handled Yuma and lady Masako pretty well. I know the actor is pretty cringe, but I trust SP enough that hopefully I can separate the art from the artist.
I agree!
Imagine hating Atsu's VA because they're trans but liking Masako, a lesbian
@@Peasham The person you're replying to never said it was because she is trans, that is an assumption on your part.
@@mishodeesh6664 Nah, what I did was cut the bullshit.
@@Peasham 🤷♂
I loved Jin, he was one of my favorite characters. But this direction works just fine. I can’t wait to play this and see how this goes.
My only desire for ghost of yotei is closer window launch on PC
Yessssss
yeah I'll wait for PC i don't play on consoles
if she has two katanas and a scorpion spinner thing you bought me
Same tbh
The thing i am hopeing the most for is for sucker punch to inplement chaoices more into the game. The suttel things in G.O.T. made it amazing. When you walk slowly the NPCs also do. Equally diverse combat assassination- sword fight-bowing. Enemys are spaced enought to go for full stelth clear- chalanging them makes them gather around and you have different stances for different enemies- traps almost everywhere so if you are clever you can full clear a camp with 5 arrows. Answering and asking question you chose. Be that its only 2 options, it felt like this was your game. You play the way you feel so you get connected. Ghost was an easy 9.5 then but if they keep the game generally similar and implemented weight to the chooces and dialog than damn 11. I don't think i will be able to find a game that will score so highly in so many different categories.
that mountain looks so sick
A Ghost in the medieval knight period would be amazing
Bruh that would be sick
There are some missions where there are Ghost immitators. Just like the beginning of the movie 'The Dark Knight.' "I'm not wearing hockey pads!"
I do hope they do come back to Jin's story at some point in the future. There's still a 2nd Mongol invasion on different islands and the fact that the Shogun is also sending out Samurai against Jin.
Lets hope suckerpunch wont repeat ubisoft with the ass games
I think we are in safe hands...
People said that about ubi too
@@RB365arclike when? UBI safe hand…it sound like a fever dream XD
Sucker Punch has a good track record, they don't like to milk their ips like ubi, and sony has a history of letting their top studios do what they want, they could have continued making Infamous games it would probably sell well, but they wanted something new and made GoT, and now wanted to continue with the Ghost series but something new again, and made GoY next game could as the video says be modern day, or even better imagine a Ghost in 1960 were the Yakuza had the most members, or even considering the beautiful art direction of Ghost imagine one in the 80s or 90s i would be crazy
Aside from somehow containing Jin's death it's hard to imagine his story being any more complete. He save Tsushima, overcame the limitations of the era, and reckoned with the sins of his past. From a literary standpoint he did everything. Including more would feel like the shallow hollowing out of his character for money. If someone is upset by the idea that they chose a new protagonist then they would be furious if they released a mediocre game for another crack at the wallet.
Edited for clarity
@@HighFlyActionGuy I totally agree!!!
I hope we get to fight Jin as a mythic tale. She duels with him in a dream and inherit his armor
Nah, I think it would be better if you just got the armour for finishing the main story, as a non canonicle suit.
I wouldn’t even wear it tbh. That’s Jin’s armor fr I wanna see her have her own iconic look unique to her.
@@gnarlyboyjai she will have her own as she progress in the story for sure. i was thinking more about what if Jin's ghost armor if it's worn by someone with a different build
I have been a fan of ninja games going back to Tenchu on Ps1. Ghost gave me that feeling of being a kid again gaming. I absolutely love Ghost and the 2nd addition will be amazing. Can’t wait!!!!!!!
Also, I don't fully agree with your comment regarding Jin's character. While Jin wasn't made to be the most expressive, I think the game accomplished it's goal. Jin was a samurai, a man of few words, but with snippets here and there, we also know he's good at different forms of art, and has a very good sense of humor as well.
I think the game also gives the player the chance to express themselves with the masks, helmets, and headbands, and to a lesser extent, the dialogue options you sometimes get.
Assassin's creed shadows? More like Assassin's creed Left in the shadows
I'm pretty sure it's the other way around. I remember years ago ubisoft said ninjas were boring, but after the release of tsushima, now they made ac shadows.
my first thought when I saw the trailer was, absolute cinema
It was a vibe
Imagine a ghost game but in modern Japan with jhon wick style, gun fu game play, with wepons, combat and swords, by the way they have the best engine to make a jhon wick style game
they really be sucker punching Ubisoft
I’m hoping this games protagonist is like Mizu from Blue Eye Samurai, that’d make this game amazing
Great video, you deserve more subs!
Thanks, I really appreciate that!
Sucker Punch… I beg of you. Please make legends 2. I loved the single player mode but after running up legends with my boys I never had a gaming experience like that. It was beautiful. I even met an amazing person on the matchmaking who became our fourth on that and so many other games. In a market that encourages you to shoot and fight each other, sucker punch gave us the option to bow. Brilliant.
Legends was amazing!!!
I mean it also makes sense they wanted to do something different. GoT 2 would be mongol invasion of Tsushima 2 electic boogaloo with old "punished" Jin. I think we'll eventually get to it, but doing the same things, in the same place but slightly better graphics and slightly different story 5 years later would be a bit disappointing. Give it time, let Daisuke get a bit older to fit the old man theme better 😂
Let's take a moment to reflect on Rdr2 and how we all wanted John Marston... And how Arthur Morgan became one of the best protagonist in video game history.
Change is good sometimes
I was kind of looking forward to a Ghost 2 w/ Jin. I wanted to see sort of what we saw in AC where Ezio build his Assassin's Guild, in Jin sort of building this elite force of ninja. To see what the Shogun could send after him, introducing new enemies that aren't necessarily all Mongol, but also elite Samurai hunting you as a Jin.
Always chance for a third game!
You mean the thing he explicitly stated he didn't want to do?
My idea for a third game:
Ghost of Kyoto, set during the collapse of the Heian period (100 years before Tsushima) and the rise of the samurai clans to power. The MC would have been a former bandit turned retainer, and eventually serve the Kamakura Shogunate, thus becoming the first samurai.
That would be so good!
Regarding your statements about the Ghost leaning into mythical elements, there were plenty of mythical elements in the first game. The wind was Jin's Father's spirit, the birds were his mother's. He fought a Tengu. All of the Mythic Tales turn out to have some hint of truth to them. The Legends mode is even hinted as being factual in Jin's world (given that we receive the white Kitsune mask from the Legends Mode as thanks for telling Uta the story of "The Fire Spirits of Yarikawa.") I think having animal companions is relatively mild to some of the mythicism we see in the 1st game.
Fair point! Thanks
I'm very excited for this game. I thought the sequel would be set two years after the first with the second invasion but then I thought about it and I figured that between the main game and DLC we've learnt all we can about Jin's personality and history. I like this idea of a new protagonist every game a lot Although I wonder who will be the Ezio of this franchise lol. The game looks amazing so far and considering it's a revenge story so it's going to be very tragic. Getting alot of blue eyed samurai vibes and that's an amazing show
Excited with you!
The best way to actually close off Jin is have us play him in the epilogue in the beginning of the game close the story off then transition 300 years later as Atsu.
That would be sick
Will Ghost of Yotei be availeble at PC on release date? Is there any information?
It will eventually go to PC but certainly not for the first year...
I think it’s a good move. I hope they honor Jin in this next game a mention him as inspiration for this new character. But excited for this new game and for where the franchise can go
@@geraldmunoz8491 totally agree!
Hopefully there will be a sengoku jidai theme with more variety to the gameplay and not too repetitive.
Lets hope they innovate enough! Regardless it’s gonna be a fun time!
They mights as well make the Ghost of New York with James St Patrick reprising his role as “Ghost”
I think it’s great they decided to make a new character for the next game. Jin’s story is done, he, and we, explored all of Tsushima, unlocked all armors and sword kits. People are mad that Jin’s story won’t continue but what else could they do? We wouldn’t get anything new, we’d just be on Tsushima again. Btw I like to think of the gender change as a anima and animus of the gameplay or like a yin and yang. Jin’s character could be calm but emotional and this new character could be violent yet calculated in a sense, for example.
love that
Maaaan, hearing about how the “Ghost of…” series could expand makes me want to see a future instalment to take place at the same time of the shinsengumi.
I wonder if this means in the future, there will be a Ghost game taking place outside Japan. Would love to see one taking place in Korea during the Joseon era.
I think it does mean that
It would be cool to have ghost games from different regions/time periods
Definitely
If this game still have hot springs this will be 10/10
LOLLLL
Im not even mad. I just wanna follow a legendary side quest to obtain the ghost stance from jin. Learning that (whether killing or sparing his uncle is cannon) and how he lived his remaining life. Maybe hes like a local legend that people dont believe in anymore (like many of the side quests in tsushima(
Now I have a reason to look forward to looking for those hot springs. 😏😉
...lol
Id like to see survival elements added to the game like hunting, and keeping your weapons in good condition.
No need for for a hard-core survival sim, just a bit of an extra challenge.
I hope ac shadows go back to being non rpg and being a story heavy game which could focus a lot on character building rather than allowing people to buy an armor for money
i hope it will have the hot spring scenes
Ghost of Tsushima and Kingdom come are the only games that scratched that historically accurate slash realistic itch I've been having and I cant wait to play KCD2 and GoY
KCD2 is looking so great!
The only question I have is how long until we get over being a samurai idk how they keep making it feel fresh after game 3. Until it just feels like Rise of the Ronan with guns in a Japanese city.
Nowhere it said we'll be a samurai again.
I’ll never get tired of katanas. My favorite weapon
No No the ghost concept should only stay in Japan.I say that bcs if u think abt it Japan is a more than a nation it holds more if u include the culture and the mentality that the ppl had back then.Its an opposing force to the ghost ideology and u can always make the argument that Japan isnt the only place in the world where they hold/value honor thats why it can go beyond Japan but thats where my argument comes back in full circle that Japan is a character itself and we want to see how this ghost ideology shapes and twists the character of Japan and im 100% sure that ppl would be more interested if they followed the Japan setting more than any other setting for this ghost ideology that u wanted to to go even further beyond Japan.KEEP IT IN JAPAN
You serious right ?
idk man anyone can be the ghost
That would be boring if they only do Japan. They could do China or Egypt too.
Eastern Europe has tons of untapped potential for story telling.
Honestly.... i wouldnt hate the idea of being the ghost in medieval europe
Dont let Ghost of Tsushima limit the amount of potential of Ghost of games
Looking forward to diving into this game!
GoT wasn't solely focused on stealth IMO, there were missions where it was absolutely required but most of the time, the game was basically offering the player choice.
Choice to enter fights head-on like a Samurai, or to use stealth like a shinobi would. I feel like i would have liked some lind of alignment chart for the player, or maybe indications of such in the path your Legend takes while it grows, because clearly it's a big deal in the story
I think an alignment chart would've been a great idea!
They need to do different countries per game if they want to do an anthology series.
I really wanted this wandering ronin fighting samurai and other ronin vibes from the sequel
This is gonna be amazing. Especially if they implement the honor system they were supposed to use in GOT. Brilliant.
sony n suckerpunch are like best friends
very honorable mention
Sony and Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios
Jin is the goat. I was done with Tsushima but not with jin. Would have loved to see him go explore. After a second game it would have been more fitting to do ghost of Yhotei
I'm hyped Ghost of Sushi is my favorite game of all time and sucker punch has never disappointed me so far also Duel wielding Katanas look sick af. Jin is such a good character and i get people will not like the switch to the new character because of that but I feel like Ghost of Tsushima was all about how Jin becomes the Ghost and not just following his whole life as the Ghost.
I agree!
They could also just do a bigger dlc for this game and bring Jins story to an end. The map would already be there. If they need to, they could expand the map a little
Great idea!
I just wanted the continuation of Jin’s story =/ It felt like it wasn’t ended
I was satisfied with the ending but I can understand the disappointment...
We still need an infamous collection for ps5. Very excited for this though, loved the trailer! Currently replaying first game on pc.
Jin has a flute and this girl has a string instrument. Nice
I like it!
