Senior Animator Reacts to Ghost of Yotei Trailer and is BLOWN AWAY!

It took so long for Sucker Punch to get their respect. They’ve never made a bad game.

That’s actually true

You could play Tsushima in black n white, she's wiping off the blood but she's actually crossing off a name

Bro did you notice the art direction… Every single cut scene has something flying through the air/space! Fire embers, stars, multiple bird scenes, multiple floating flower scenes, wavering flags, snow blowing, and tumbling leaves! Provides a real sense of flow and motion through every scene!

[@YorkReacts]

@@Optimistichumanist Oooo good catch I didn’t even notice that. Love it!

[@epicgamer2670]

I am beyond excited for this as well. I welcome the female protagonist

[@uservl7di9ti5y]

The detailed description of the Japanese sword is wonderful. I think they study the real thing. Because her sword is grooved. The groove of a Japanese sword has various roles, and one of the roles is to lighten the weight. In other words, it is possible that she is using a custom-made Japanese sword specifically for her, customized for women. To be close to the real thing is to work carefully with such trivial descriptions. As a Japanese, I would like to thank Soccer Punch for respecting Japanese swords.

[@RickDalton_]

The camera work and cinematography in these cinematics are top notch. I hope the cutscenes in the real game are done by the same people and the same vibe. So good, has a Tarantino-esque vibe to it

[@steadycuzzin5813]

Hey York, and everyone! How's everyone been? Not gonna lie. I was really hoping to see another story with our favorite main protagonist Jin Sakai. But this game is gonna be amazing no matter what. We are basically in control of Jin Sakai. But with a female protagonist with way more and better mechanics this time around. Sucker Punch is known for showing us what next gen games look like. GTA 6 did have my full attention until this showed up. I can't wait.. 2025 and 2026 is gonna be amazing. PS5 Pro can wait right now. Give me those titles to play on the Pro.

[@dadif6947]

Respectfully your experience in the industry didn't show in your video. If I was going to subscribe to your channel it would be because of your insight into developing games. This was just a video of a dude like me excited for a cool looking game that I can't wait to play. Wish you all the best with your channel and hope you heal ASAP.

[@YorkReacts]

Maybe check out some of my other videos then. I didn’t have much to say for feedback on certain game dev insights because they did such a good job I was mainly impressed with what they have accomplished as a team. Maybe check out the video I made on the god of war cinematic I worked on lots of game dev nuggets in there also join my discord if your into that stuff

I especially love how the background is stormy weather, but the hair on the player and the wolf don't move at all, such animation, such realism. Seriously, this looks worse than the first game.

What do you mean specifically

Different protagonist in different time settings and locations

We expected more of Jin Sakai, not necessarily ‘wanted’ more, as our thoughts were full of that expectation.

[@gamesucks3092]

😃😂@WOYMEN SAMURAI😂😃😒those stories are about as legit as Kabuki theater🔥 After playing the expansion pack I got worried about this series future🤔 A female protagonist is simply RIDICULOUS...women lack the upper body strength to compete with males in bladed combat ESPECIALLY 😃😂 Females fought heroically with spears and naginatas defending structures and staying in groups but in open warfare 1 on 1 vs men they would be DEAD MEAT... I heavily suspected they would destroy these games with DEI and fantasy garbage as your experience in the game went from gritty reality to silly fantasy because your character would ultimately find themselves fighting an old lady who did kung fu arial spins with her magical wooden staff🤔😒😂

[@ThePoppinGamer]

Its a videogame, not really supposed to be down to earth realistic, although you did make a good point at the end lol. Regardless, does that mean every other game that has a female protagonist is DEI? Take horizon zero dawn or stellar blade for example, they have female protagonist but I haven't seen anyone call them DEI games. Not trying to make fun of you btw, just pointing out stuff I notice. In reality we don't know how this game will play out till we either play it for ourselves or get more trailers. While I personally would have like Jin Sakai to get his story continued I'm fine with a new character as well.

[@Joker_JAK]

Yeah because changing the weather with a flute, calling the wind, calling for a lightning strike, etc were all so realistic. 🙄 Having a female protagonist is the least unrealistic thing in these games. Also, your premise is flawed anyway because in the first game, Masako, Yuna, and Tomoe were all female warriors who killed men.

[@gamesucks3092]

@@Joker_JAK yeah, I thought all that was really stupid and cringed every time I saw it luckily it was only a tiny portion of the game but now the whole thing is a big wet turd because you have a tiny little woman doing Kung Fu and it's not 1985 anymore #@loser
