There's a really minor win here, but as someone who adores Mongol history I needed to say it. Mongolia didn't have a written language during Genghis' time, so they simply used Chinese for a long period of time. Kublai, who's Khan during the period Ghost of Tsushima takes place, had a Mongolian written language be created, trying to blend the Mongolian culture with Chinese in hopes it will last longer. Unfortunately most people didn't like it, finding it difficult and not detailed enough to convey everything they need, so it was pretty much forgotten and they continued use Chinese. Jin being able to read most things the Mongols write therefore makes perfect sense, since in all likelihood most of them would've avoided using Mongolian at all costs

That moment when you realize Jin is no longer a Samurai and fully embraces that he is "The Ghost" and you start dancing around enemies, using a mixture of stealth and head on tactics is SO satisfying to get to. You no longer feel like you are surrounded by Mongols, you feel like they are trapped in your presence

Also, the moment when Yuna asks Jin if he's ok after stabbing the first Mongol in the back at the beginning of the game, Jin's facial expression goes beautifully from a sense of self-loathing and shock to a poker face out of necessity and the fact that as Samurai, he should at least conceal his emotions.

Depending on your choice for the ending I found it fitting for the white color being achieved with “that” ending. I chose the opposite fyi. Felt more in line with the themes in game and with Jin’s character. PS. I love that the winds are his father and the yellow birds are his mother. Subtle and out of sight like their son The Ghost.

I always liked the other ending instead. Not killing Shimura and fully embracing the ghost to him felt I think more climatic than killing him. It kind of reminded me to the ending of The Dark Knight where he chooses to be the villain to save his home. Killing him is tragic but leaving him alive and then knowing they can’t be the same as they once and must be enemies due to their own senses of honor feels more in line to me.

What people are forgetting to mention about this game is how the gameplay evolved with the story. At the beginning you only have your sword and fighting skills. When you're still a Samurai. When you've unlocked all the tools and tricks of the assassin/rogue/stalker, you've gotten to the point in the story where you're more the Ghost. Most games have a fairly arbitrary reason for why your character becomes stronger and can use more abilities and tools over timed. But in GoT you have access to more abilities and tools as Jin realizes he needs to "cheat" in order to win in combat (and not have hostages executed).

Fun fact: the volley of arrow throwers were made in ancient Korea and they are known as Hwacha (in the joseon dynasty) . Basically throwing the fact that the mongols conquered Korea and controlled their naval ships , cavalry to invade Japan .

One thing I noticed is whichever ending you choose, it was a subtle hint of the which colors you would get since if you would kill shimura when he kneels on the white pedals to kill him, or spare him and have the red pedals flow around you as you walk away

One thing about this game, ive never been more immersed into a games world like this one. I felt like i was creating a legendary tale that would be told by generations, where as time goes by it gets more mythical and wonderous. I felt the need to play the game naturally, not spamming buttons and throwing shit out, but instead taking my time and playing via intelligent swordplay and playing it like a real fight. God this game is so good, i really think we'll never get another game like this, thank you sucker punch, seriously.

4:12 made me fall in love with this game INSTANTLY. The voice acting, gameplay, graphics, story, score, this has to be my new favourite game of all time.

I carried Jinn with the attitude of "If the Shogun wants my head, he can come and get it himself" towards the end.

in my opinion this is the best video about Ghost of Tsushima. i literally cried so much in the end of this game. i chose the same ending as in the video and it was heartbreaking in the most beautiful way. definitely one of my favorite of all time

for anybody wondering what the instrument is at 4:12 , it is called a biwa, used often by japanese storytellers (also used by those in mythic tales). specifically, the closest thing i can find to that exact score is the beginning of the tale Nasu no Yoichi, a story of a samurai who in battle, and in rocking water, hit a small fan held off the ship of an enemy group with a single shot.

At the beggining of the Sakai/Shimura fight I was at the brink of tears of sadness. When I finally defeated Lord Shimura, they where tears of joy for finally beating him. That fight was HARD

I noticed that when the game uses wipes, you give a win about it reminding you of Star Wars. I just wanted to mentions that I think the game is actually giving an homage to the filmmaker Kurosawa, who often employed wipes and also made many movies about samurai (he was an incredibly popular filmmaker). George Lucas has also mentioned that he was heavily inspired by Kurosawa when making Star Wars so that's why it also uses wipes. Just wanted to mention this as I think it gives the game more respect and also is a cool tidbit about Star Wars. Keep up the good work!

Yeah, this was a fantastic game, I loved most the parts where we went to shrines to pray to the shinto pantheon for assistance and getting stuff that genuinely helped, which is again the supernatural at work, we also see it with Jin's patron god Inari the god of foxes and some other stuff when we followed the foxes, I also really loved doing the Haiku's, the first thing I found was one of those Haiku's, that final Haiku "Eyes that saw my pain, A bond broken forever... This is where we part", I legit cried at that part, I couldn't bring myself to kill him, so I got the spare him ending.

This game was so immersive for me before, and this video taught me things I never knew existed within the game or was even implied. Thank you so much for making this video, as Ghost of Tsushima was and always will be my absolute MOST favorite and reccomended game until I die.

Great video. This is a game that deserves people being passionate about it and it was fun having you share yours with us

I've never had as much fun playing a game for the first than I did with Ghost of Tsushima. The excellent swordplay makes you feel so badass during every combat encounter. At least for me it did.

And 6:13 had the hairs standing on my arms, such an unforgettable intro that will stick with me forever.

I get goosebumps every time 😂

Yeah, that final duel made me cry, specially that scream at the end 🥺

When i played the game, I never saw what it meant but watching this video I cried so many times and im going to play it again

Jin was lying to Masako, he stopped a while after she asked what happened to him, deciding whether to tell the truth or to spare her the pain.

I'm new to watching these videos and to seeing this channel myself. But I can confidently say that this channel has already made me rethink some of my more pessimistic and negative views on life! Thank you so much for making this kind of content!

21:53 Other thing you could link to that is that Jin’s Initial sword kit has the name “The Storm of Clan Sakai”, the mongols really were beaten back by a storm

30:40 hoping it’s not cliche, I see myself in Jin. Everyone has a sense of honor and good, but his is different and less about the boundaries and more about the principles. Helping people and doing whatever necessary regardless of what others think or the consequences.

Jin is the waterfall, restless, fluid, twisted by every turn. And yet, he evaporates from the endless heat of his emotions. He needs serenity, the virtue of Clan Shimura. Shimura is the mountain, serene and solid. And yet, passing time wears him down permanently. He needs rebirth, the virtue of Clan Sakai. Balance, the Mountain and Waterfall living together in harmony. If only that actually happened. Instead, because of pride and enmity, the waterfall dried up, and the mountain crumbled to the ground. A wasteland left in their wake. 😔 An island saved, but at what cost?

8:01 I know it's not much, but I absolutely ADORE how they show the difference nobility and peasants through small detail like Jin and Yuna's swords, Yuna's (a peasant) is all ragged and has a rough wrapped hilt while Jin's (a noble) is all pristine white and decorated

I noticed at 19:02 that jins face holds what looks like before he screams in anger and sadness, such a beautiful game

This is easily my top 5 favorite games ever. MOST BEAUTIFUL GAME IVE EVER PLAYED. And I’m really glad I watched this, HOW DID I MISS THE GUIDING WINDS ARE HIS FATHER???

the PS4 practically started with a good suckerpunch game (infamous second son) and ended with a beautiful suckerpunch game, feels like a book ends in its own way

Infamous second son is great but god was making D.U.P not spawn anymore when you clear out the areas a bad decision. Once you finish that you cannot use concrete powers at all, there's no one to fight and nothing to do. I haven't playing GoT, but I really hope it doesn't make the same mistake

It is hilarious the fact that I named the horse the same thing (Kage); I also chose the white one. And when choosing a new given the opportunity to choose a new horse, for no reason, I also named the horse Sora. Can I get win for following in your footsteps?

The thing i most love about this game is mongol artefacts, things like the "offering plate" and stuff showing that mongols arent just psychos who drink horse blood, just normal people with their own lords just sent into war, sometimes you can even see mongols playing instruments when sneaking around a camp.

I remember watching that opening scene into the real world for the first time. Goosebumps!

You don't know how much time have I been waiting for a channel like yours. Thank you, I hope you get to grow as much as the other win/sin channels and more.

@@GamingWins Big respect for that bro.

Listening to you talk about games and what makes them great, is what makes me want to play these games and feel these emotions for myself, thats a win.

15:00. 'Ellie could take a page out of that book.' OOF, That hit way too hard.

I’m so damn late to this channel, but good lord I’m so happy you’re doing things like this game first!!

I wasn’t looking forward to this game but still decided to get it and see how it was, safe to say I played the whole game and fell in love with it and it really annoyed me when it was snubbed at the Game Awards last year, this game is my Game of the Year

I love these monologues you give at the end of your videos

The Sakai blade is named “The Storm of Clan Sakai”, the default horse saddle is also named something about a Storm, a storm named by the Shogun (Kamikaze) wiped out the mongol invasion, coincidence?

This game has changed my life. 10/10 Samurai Batman is awesome Also I think it’s funny that a game centered around the concept of honor is made by a company named “sucker punch”

I mixed it up a little with the combat, using my gadgets as well as my sword. Even though it's not as powerful, I chose to spare Lord Shimura because by the game's end, Jin's not a samurai anymore. He's something more...

I’m glad I found your channel. I needed this!

Late to this but one thing I absolutely love is how the NG+ intor is similar to a fresh save, only difference being the fact that your going to the NG+ vendor straight after the field of grass.

This quickly became my favourite game of all time. Has aspects of everything I love in a game. Great story. Great characters. Stealth. Armour grind. Great combat. Feeling like a real warrior. Just a masterpiece.

fun fact, during the 13th century, samurai's weren't swordsmen, instead being taught to wield a bow

I also named my horse Kage, and the final horse Sora. I was legit sad for about a week after what happened to Kage, I didn't see it coming and it hit much harder than I thought it would. Awesome game, definitely GOTY.

This is one of the very few games where the gameplay had me completely hooked. While I was a few months behind buying it, once I began it was hard to put down. The progression through the game is rewarding and even wanting to get the platinum trophy was a fun challenge. Where this game (for me) let me know that I was hooked, was when I went back to beat it again under new game+. It felt even better a second time even taking a different approach to the missions and liberating Tsushima. This game will forever be my game of the year.

What a brilliantly written essay and review. I cant wait to see this channel blow up because of how solid and eloquent your writing and videos are! Ghost of Tsushima is a near perfect gaming experience in my book, a blend of narrative and interaction that leaves you feeling deep and potent things....while still getting to scream SAMURAI SLICE!! with every attack. Nice.

This whole game is amazing. Ready to do a 2nd play through new game+

I want to shout out how utterly fantastic the animation is in this game. Every tiny incidental action feels like it came right out of a movie, yet it never hampers the flow of gameplay and it all enriches the immersion into the game's world. The combat animations are a perfect example of this.

Anyone else notice that the fully upgraded samurai clan armor+unrefined samurai clan helmet is what his armor looked like before it became the broken armor
