JIN is a KING and a LEGEND. Super cool protagonist, hope we get a trilogy of the ghost
I strongly agree but if u didn't know they made a co op multiplayer mode coming out this fall so its going to be lit
@@EXDEL_L0B0 of course I know, looking forward to it
@@erezben14 they really gave us a suckerpunch with that lol
Sorry for ask, is Jin sakai and Hattori hanzo in the same era?
@@shirohemoth1946 Jin's journey, and the entirety of Ghost of Tsushima, take place in the year 1274, while Hattori Hanzo was born in 1542 and died in 1596.
I finished GoT last night and damn that was one of the best games I've ever played
I just realized I said the same thing in the other comment .__.
Hey it's ok to say it twice, game is gud ^^
Plotthound 1 Got u mean game of thrones
@@ogjogi4506 wtf he means this game
I just finished it today.
I been saying this a lot. The shogun shouldn’t have disbanded his clan and marked him a traitor. Since he’s the reason why tsushima won. But japan hierarchy feared that title the ghost, Jin was given, would be more respected than the samurai’s.
It's not even as if the conflict is over, they still have to deal with the Mongol. As Khotun says they'll just send another one with more men (I'm paraphrasing here but you get the point).
Who is the shogun anyway
VenomRG honestly I don’t know
"Kill me, and another will come"
FoxRNG I meant his name
I’ve been playing this game all weekend and I’ve gotta say, it’s one of the best games I’ve ever played. I like how it takes elements from the newer assassins creed games and breath of the wild. I’m also just a huge weeb and love Japanese culture. First we’re getting Ghost of Tsushima and next Tsukuyomi in smite!
Never played breath of the wild what does it take from that game?
NTG I feel like the natural art style and music resemble botw
You mean open worlded?
Someone said that this was “Japan rewriting” it’s history but it really doesn’t make the Samurai look good. As far as we can tell, there’s only one in the story who seems to care more about the people than about his own name.
This is actually an attack on the Samurai, not a romanticization. It’s a honorable way to look at the Shinobi (which we know that they actually were filled with lower class warriors), The fact that we now know that this game was inspired by a mysterious statue of “The Ghost of Tsushima” a warrior who “raised from
The dead at the beach to slaughter mongol invaders” is really cool.
We will definitely gonna see Jin again 'cause when you look back there another history of the second Mongols invasion in Tsushima, so we wait until Sucker Punch want to make another story of Jin Sakai in Ghost Of Tsushima 2
If there is another a game it may still take place on Tsushima considering that they still need to drive the Mongols away.
@@nearlytacticalgamingPrime maybe but we will see.
i’m really looking forward to GoT 2 bcs of the second mongol invasion and the Story is better than TLOU2. But i disappoint there’s no mod to change your katana to a golf club, lol
@@HELLER. "Kill me and another will come" see what they did there?
@@CommissarVoren yeah I see what they did there. You got my like.
As you said, Jin is a perfect representation of a Romanticized Samurai. If GoT gets a sequel or even a trilogy, we could see him also be the perfect representation of a Romanticized Ninja/Shinobi!
He's alot like Miyamoto Musashi, a romanticized Samurai/Ronin who are just generally badass.
Jin in the end was a hero to the island, but he doesn't get a happy ending, the closest thing to it is when you kill shimura, giving him an honorable death, but that end doesn't really fit with his character. Jin sacrificed his way of life to save his people, and he was exiled for it
This was a wonderful story and to me, it was an inside look at how the Shinobi was born, AND how the Samurai’s rigid code made them predictable. History doesn’t tell you how the Samurai lost many men in combat, and how the Shinobi (the Ninja) struck fear in the hearts of their opposition. I’d be a Ninja any day!
Collect all banner and give it to banner collector so jin will tell all clan tied with sakai clan
Jin Sakai, the Ghost Of Tsushima, the first shinobi
Funny story actually, the first "ninja" was just some kid who assassinated someone with a kitchen knife lol
FoxRNG
There is evidence that they could, but did they? No. They’re main job is to listen and espionage, if they kill someone then it would complicate things.
No, That's Not True, Ninja/Shinobis Were In 1500 AD Or Something, Samurai Are More Ancient... But Yes, As He Was No Samurai Anymore, Called The Ghost, He Was Basically The First Shinobi Just Like The 'Wolf' From Sekiro Shadows Die Twice...
Carl Johnson we are talking about the timelines of the game, not of real history brother
I love the Easter egg that the Sakai clan is called “the storm of Tsushima” and it is historically said that it was two storms that destroyed the mongol invasion force and beat them out of Japan; YOU ARE THE STORM it’s a cool way of retelling the story that this time the storm is not the weather but a clan known everywhere as A Violent Storm
I took one history class in Japan, years from the Jomon period up to the 1800s (basically before westernization).
Tough class, lots of reading that are not the most exciting (for me). But one of the things that stood out for me was that the samurai code of Bushido was only really practiced during peace times, when Japan’s era of warring states ended and unified under Tokugawa. But during wars between countless clans and alliances warlords did pretty much anything that would lead to a win.
The game’s story is about criticizing the romanticized idea of samurai in media while using it as a medium. Lord Shimura represents the dogmatic approach of samurai ideology.
one of the very best games ive played in a few years . its in my top five of all time . and Jin is Amazing . if you look at in the time line , Jin is the first Shinobi (Ninja) because this was before lords in japan used them . so i would not be shocked )) Spoilers you been Warn ) in the next game Jin is called by the shogun to do a very dangerous mission an will need men like him so i think we will see the birth of the first Shinobi Clan . and thats were Jin will get his honor Back by the shogun Cause he will need the skills of the Ghost .
During this time period the Shogun had power rivaling the Emperor himself, though would've been brought to his attention. Plus there's not much mention of the Emperor in the game. As for Jin, I believe he's defending his home, but realizes that he needs more then himself, and the Samurai, he needs to rally the people to make a stand against the invaders.
After the mongol invasion it resulted to the downfall of the kamakura and the rise of the askikaga and the epilogue to the future hundred years of conflict and civil war where the code where bent and loyalties lies the daimyo instead of the shogun where samurai slaughtered each other for power and influence
that would make a great sequel!
I'm still playing the game I'm on the second act, Jin Sakai is an honorable man because he could have left to the main land but he stood to defend the island, anyway he could..
☀️🐺🌙🐺
Jin was a real ninja
You got any sources with that meat?
Lord shimura”fight with honor Jin Sakai” Jin”no I don’t think I will”
When I played the game, makes me feel like I played a Ninja origin story!
Jin will make Ghosts and not Samurais thats why the Shogun is afraid lol
I like this game so much
4th
A spoiler alert would’ve been nice to have for this video.
Look at the start of the video bro :)
Imagine getting Ghost of tshushima 2 and playing as Kazumasa Sakai
Now who the hell is Kazumsa Sakai???
@@stfu8262 bruh it's Jin's father who died in a duel and you can hear in one mission how lord shimura got revenge bc they were brothers
@@sparkz0954 oh thanks 😅
@@sparkz0954 Lord Shimura and Kazumasa weren't brothers. Shimura was Jin's mother's brother
@@sparkz0954 that story is now outdated with the directors cut.
I love Jin's character and the story
EVERYONE IS GANGSTA UNTIL JIM SAKAI SAYS "SEND ME THE BEST WARRIOR"
Ye Fo' Sure BUSTA
“Are you cowards?!?”
Late as fuck to this but I feel dialogue has a lot to do with this. This is the theoretical start of the ninja. Explained by a story and narrative of a samurai who had no where else to turn, this is the fictional story of the origins of the ninja. In japan, tradition is a heavy part of the culture, hence why they have so much suicide in the country. The tradition of suicide to keep ones honour is heavy still. Hence why they have a suicide FOREST. Idk, that’s my take. Fucking good video dude
Sakai Jin is more of a shinobi in the game. But, still Samurai. Sense shinobi are samurai. Shinobi are what people these days call ninja.
The thing I don't get is that jin doesn't let the samurai sacrifice their lives because that's what they want, but I do kinda get it. I eventually did end his life as a warrior, because the game kinda makes the samurai mentality into a fantasy but overall this is the 2nd game I've cried at... 1st was metal gear solid 5
Wow you cried? Not knocking you for that the game just didn't get me to that place :3
Yeah me too...
You got to play FFVII Crisis core
@Juan Simón Machado Pennise I cried in both tho Lol Spiderman PS4 and Ghost of Tsushima.
I would like to think the whole “Honor and no fear-tactics” was just a ploy from the shogun. Since his father was similar in his tactics or “imagination” from Yuriko, thinking he might one day rebel.
Sorry for asking guys, is Jin sakai in the same era with Hattori hanzo? or who first?
It's weird to say it like this (considering that they're both pretty old at this point or would be) but Hanzo would be the younger one. We're talking a difference of a few 100 years or so.
And hey there's nothing wrong with asking ^^.
@@nearlytacticalgamingPrime thankyou for respond
His name is pronounced like “Jean” as in blue Jeans not Jin like saying the name of the drink Gin. “i” in Japanese is ALWAYS pronounced like the “ea” in read.
Whats so cool about this story is watching jin go from respectable samurai to a full blown ninja 😂
I feel if they did come out with a second game it should follow the story of gins father
Jin Sakai is one of the greatest characters in gaming and he’s like Kratos
Did you just recap the story, or tell us who jin is?
One thing that i like from this game is when we face the 6 Ronin in duel, and the last ronin that we fought his name was kojiro. That reminds me of Musashi vs Kojiro Sasaki as they battled on the beach being watched by many people
Jin’s the best video game character since CJ and Kratos
I hope GOT got a sequel and second version game in ps4:) i will give all my money to buy it:)
This is the best game i ever played, perfect protagonist character, he risk his samurai status in order to save people of tsushima, idk, it just touch my heart:)
A SuckerPunch job listing requesting people with a passion for story telling during a feudal Japan era hints that they are going to begin working on a sequel.
very cool story and jin was an amazing protagonist. felt very weird to have the same last name tho and hear lord sakai, kinda sat there like oh thats me 😂
How tall is he?
10 ft with red eyes
I was looking for that answer!! Lets goo bro!
@@willjulian6040 Or with eyes as dark as the darkest ink
Jon Sakai/the ghost is legendary he did the right thing
Yuna just destroyed jin why the game won't let me to choose my path i just don't want such an end
I felt the exact same way when I played through, a missed opportunity I guess but then again they told the story they wanted to tell so that's that.
The beginning of the game shows that in lore the samurai depended on sheer numbers and power instead of employing tactics at first and it also shows how strict the samurai code was in the game to prevent them from looking dishonorable instead of actually being honorable and how them getting stuck in their ways was their downfall and how individualized the samurai weren’t along with showing us how the greater good requires things that may seem dishonorable at the time but in the end it was worth it
It does this by showing the viciousness of the mongols and how quickly they absolutely destroyed the samurai by having no such honorable code which is displayed by Jin later in the game
Also some of what I said is accurate to the game and not historical events
However the samurai did have some things right in the game such as: loyalty that’s about it
The title of ghost was kind of similar to a shinobi in a way so does this mean that Jin became the first shinobi? Or nah
Here's the fun thing about that, even more renowned shinobi like Hattori Hanzo didn't have that many accounts of all the things that they did. There's a chance that shinobi have existed before Jin but no one really took too much notice or wrote them off as being something else.
Hey..! Do you know Gaijin goomba (youtuber) i suggest you watch his which ninja video where he talk about media's popular ninja to see which is good and which is bad with historical recourses
He still working on Ghost of Tsushima, in his thumbnail (not on youtube yet) says "Jin's first Shinobi?"
Jin basically became a Shinobi.
So, WHO IS JIN SAKAI??
*Yare Yare*
Did he say kodoma beach. I swear it's komoda
1:42, I though it said leave a life, it would be weird lately
Komoda yeah, not kodama
Love your vids :D
Yo puffer what's up ^^
@@nearlytacticalgamingPrime vibing like always xd
The whole ghost tsushima is fake it learned that all the samurai was slaughtered and the real tsuhima now called (tsushima Island)was took over but the Mongols failed there main mission anyway
You’re stupid , you think the invasion stopped at the end of the game ? 😂😂
