I really liked that Khotun Khan was clearly a reflection of how the Mongols actually were. I was expecting Sucker Punch to just portray him as just another mindless barbarian out to loot and burn. But it seems like they did their research. Khotun was strong and a vicious fighter, yes. But more than that, he was cunning, ruthless, and a brilliant manipulator. He knew how to read people, he understood his enemy, their tactics, how to predict their next move, he knew how to adapt to the unexpected elements, such as the Ghost. A proper reflection of the actual Mongol Empire. Contrary to popular belief, the Mongols did not win just because of superior numbers or superior troops. Often times, they were outnumbered by their enemies and their troops not as well trained or equipped. They won, instead, through superior tactical and strategic planning, effective use of espionage to understand their enemies and subterfuge to cause chaos and confusion prior to an invasion, manipulation to divide their enemies against one another and of course adaptability to their enemy's tactics. Khotun exemplified everything that made the Mongol Empire so successful. Stupid people don't conquer most of the known world.
They were also very fair to those who surrendered without resistance, allowing them to maintain some form of autonomy as vassal states and they even protected them.
I love how human they made him. I was worried he would just be a two dimensional villain, but he is so intelligent and charismatic, and offers his enemies mercy when he can. He's the villain, but he has his own sense of honor. In general, I find the Mongol Empire really interesting, in how tolerant they were and how they promoted based on merit rather than blood.
@@jiuncho4435 Neither did Alexander's empire. It's sometimes the way of things. A great leader can create something incredible, but it takes only a short while for unworthy successors to destroy it.
I don’t know about you guys but Khotun Khan was awesome, he was cunning, respectable but also a man of his word considering how his forces sometimes took in Japanese people, trained them, spared them even learned the language to get them on the mongol side
I would say Khotun Khan in this story is a open-minded character, which is opposite of the spirit of Samurai in the story - hard as steel, but rather die than change. In history of the real world we all know the force of Tsushima had no matched to Mongol, Mongol can just take down forces in Tsushima easily and slaughter - In fact they did. Sucker punch has made up this part of story and make it much more better than tragic in the real world.
Yeah because slaughtering locals is actually a lost cause if you consider building a larger army and making your campaign succesfuly effective since the locals are more likely to be familiar with the terrain, they know how strong or how much soldiers/warriors this or that lord has under their banner, the access point of a territory, the weakness of every fort, etc
@Mr Doggo Yeah it makes "Ghost of Tsushima" become critical in the story. If Samurai can defeat Mongol forces, Jin would probably become more and more useless after reinforcements arrived, eventually you will be playing Jin who is just keep playing hide and seek with Samural because all Mongols on the island have been killed XD
Everytime someone has to rise to a different occasion or do something not in line with what they usually do, there’ll be some guy going “this is how they REALLY are!!!”. alcohol showed it, drugs showed it, being betrayed showed it, terminal illness showed it, losing someone showed it, deep diving showed it, war showed it etc … You know - maybe the self is not some hidden core essence or isolated mental island secretly detached from all superficial context, and just unfortunately covered by the jungle of everyday life. Maybe the self is plastic, multiple and contingent. Maybe it’s a vulnerable process of mind. Maybe war more likely has the capacity to burn out and destroy the sense of self. Maybe it can restrain a persons available avenues of growth just as it can irreparably impact the body in both visible and invisile ways. Maybe the experience of war can reduce a person to their most primitive sense of self or the worst version. Maybe war can make you a different person and one you might not necessarily sympathise with, as viewed from different circumstances. Are we to assume that by virtue of war a shell shock victim is somehow showcased as “who they truly are”? Are we to assume that soldiers who cannot sustain the normal family life they used to due to severe PTSD are some truer version of themselves, honed and brought to the fore by the illuminating process of war? Are we to believe that bravery and sacrifice comes at no cost to self? Are we to conclude that severe to unbearable stress and strain on the body and mind somehow brings about some sort of more consistent truth or does it simply create new phenomena? Are we supposed to believe that it is the experience of war above everything else that somehow brings out a persons full potential, simply by adding enough horror and pain and a need for desperate commitment?
It was actually Atilla the Hun he played as not a Mongolian, however the Huns are sorta related to the Mongolians and I think that was why he chose the role to act as Khan.
Khutun Khan, a man who valued Ambition and Strength before all else. Also guess this means Kublai Khan is going to be the next main villain for the sequel.
Doubtful. Similar to this game, I think they're going to use another composite character similar to Khotun to lead the Mongols for the second invasion. The thing with Kublai is that while he was interested in Japanese conquest, he never actually threatened to destroy the Japanese or their people. And considering that Kublai is considered something of one of the greater Khan leaders as well as one of the best Chinese emperors I doubt he'll be directly involved in the sequels.
@@symbiotegod2069 I think they're just going to make up one like they did with Khotun. I'd love to see a Kublai era incarnation of Subatai the most successful Mongol general in the army's history. Overran more terratory than any other commander.
@@symbiotegod2069 Why would they use Kublai as a villain? After the conquest of the Song Dynasty in China, Kublai never partook in any other military campaigns. By the time of the second invasion, Kublai was overweight and depressed in Beijing, sending out invasions to foreign lands just because he could.
I just his ruthless and cunning thinking to turn people against each other and exploit their weaknesses like when finding the right time to strike at that perfect moment
It was a favorite tactic of the Mongols. I love how they made him embody the essence of the Mongol conquests. Brutal, yes, but with a purpose. Cunning, adaptability, offering a chance to foes to join him. This was the bread and butter for the Mongols.

The facial expressions and even more the are so. so. good in this game. Especially Khotun Khan. And Takas face before he turns against the Khan...its SO GOOD. The Cut scenes inbetween really feel like a movie. I can watch them over and over again.
he does it on purpose right? i too wished he'd stop trying to mindfuck the characters for a sec so we could get some glimpses of his real personality, but i guess he does his job well lol
I see two possibilities. If we are charitable to the writers, then it's nuance and character craftiness. If we are not generous and the writers were dumb or lazy in this regard, then it's a somewhat glaring omission. Honestly, I was wondering the whole time if Khan's promises of peace if they surrender were real or a lie.
@@normalguycap in history Mongols were peaceful to those that surrendered allowing diversity and hope in their Empire, but they often were brutal to those that resisted
Kotun Khan's character in this game was one of the best acted and portrayed I've seen in a game. It's up there with Far Cry 3's Vaas Montenegro or God of War's Baldur for me. Kotun's brutality is always in contest with his cunning as to which is greater.
Great antagonistic. The worst kind of the villain in any type of media is the Bad guy who does Bad things for Bad things’ sake. You feel the Khan’s motives are indeed for his “Legacy that outlives” him. When your grandfather is Ghengis Khan, creating your own name, and notoriety, and again, ‘Legacy’ that is TRULY separate from him would’ve been appealing.
The greatest happiness is to crush your enemies, to see them fall at your feet -- to take their horses and goods and hear the lamentation of their women. That is the best.
I know it s a game dear brother but seing enemies at ur feet is not a pride specially when u fight for greed and power not for pride like khotun khan and also seing women lamenting is one the worst things ever because women's are the heart of any society watching them suffer rapped and being killed is simply devastating who would want that to happen to his women someone that fight with pride and honor to defend his country spare women and children and innocent people he knows who is his real enemy but he treats others with respect and humility but cowards kill innocent people and rapped womens and emprisoned children

More like jealous of his cousin, since his cousin the Emperor and he know he will never become higher if he not taking over Japan. He maybe proud of his grandfather though.
This game was robbed of goty. Maybe it could’ve won it if Jin spared the khan in the end by remembering his uncle playing a flute or something. Also does anyone know wether you can get the armor Jin is wearing in the beginning
Sparing the Khan would’ve actually made the game worse. Sparing the leader bud mindlessly killing every single one of his followers who are more innocent then the Khan himself is very hypocritical. The Khan deserved to die and the ending fight with Lord Shimura should’ve been the reason to win GOTY Also yes you can. It’s the Samurai Clan Armor with a red dye you can get in Kamiagata (act III) with a vendor
I honestly respected Khotun especially after reading Conversations With The Khan (1-11). He was brutal, Intelligent, Intriguing, but most of all he was human. He was a great leader and villain. I’ll end this with the last sentence from Conversations With The Khan 11: "Truly, the proud do not last, and the mightiest of us perish like dust before the wind."
To you reading this, Jesus can help with whatever problems and hardships you have. Believe in him and what he has done on the cross for your salvation. You can not save yourself he came to save us. Turn from your sins repent which is the act of changing your life to follow the way of God and not your way, your way will lead you into a pit to hell I know it, my way had lead me in to a pit going straight hell, but Jesus rescued me and he can rescue you. He can grant peace and joy unfelt, and be your closest friend always there, here's the gospel Jesus Christ, son of God, sacrificed his life for our sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day. After he went to his tweleve disciples and many others before ascending into heaven eternally triumphant over all his enemies and making it so that there is now no condemnation for sin to all those who believe in him, but only everlasting joy. John 3:16
Wasted villain. Put fanboyism aside. He captures Jin does nothing....let's him go. Captures uncle daddy ...does nothing...let's him get away. Possesses no real combat challenge from any other fight in game. Once it's evident it's over....he fucking runs. Final fight is by the numbers. They either ran outta time or had no vision. Maybe kubla khan in a sequel will be better. This guy was just all talk. I was most hyped to fight a fucking Khan.... and it was nothing.
Doubt they’ll use Kublai in the sequel. They’ll probably have another relative of the Khan take the stage, probably someone even more dangerous and cunning than Khotun.
@Ali Shabbiri oh really englighten us? Show us where he was an amazing character with depth who wasn't formulaic and didn't boil down to a basic fight.... Or stfu.

@Ali Shabbiri did twice. Hell the story of the khans also on RUclips. You can see it yourself. Put fanboyism aside.....you missed that part.
@Ali Shabbiri oh really englighten us? Show us where he was an amazing character with depth who wasn't formulaic and didn't boil down to a basic fight.... Or stfu.
never liked this english dub,didnt feel real or intimidating
Watching this in English is cringe
Khotun khan looks like “supreme leader”🕺🏽
