[State of Play] Ghost of Yotei Reveal - REACTION!

[@emilymitchell6823]

So happy to see someone else as excited (and teary eyed) about a new Ghost game! Full chills!

[@vredeling]

43 old and lightly tearing up on reaction videos on GoY :D

[@riagrix]

Looks bloody amazing, and I love that Sucker Punch have been bold enough to change characters and era by a few hundred years. 1603 is the beginning of the Tokugawa shogunate which went right up until the end of Shoguns. So the novel Shogun is set around 1603 (Lord Toranaga is basically Tokugawa) Not only are we blessed with the awesome Shogun tv series this year, we’ll have this game to look forward to as well.

[@ErikDayne]

Changing characters also explains why you’re not starting out with your skill tree maxed out. If this was a sequel with Jin Sakai it would be odd if you started the game with an empty skill tree.

[@dxjjw]

Japan in 1274 (Mongol invasion) compared to 1603 (start of the Edo period) are wildly different moments in Japanese history. Super excited to see what they do with the overall bold shift in setting and time period.

[@raymonreiz]

Atleast they got the historic background more accurate compare to AC Shadows 🤥🙄

[@Dracobyte]

​@raymonreiz how so? Genuine question.

[@raymonreiz]

Firstly Mount Yotei resembles Mount Fuji, this is a detail not many people know, and horses started appear in Japan after Mongolian arrive. Using Black n white scene is clearly a tribute to old (Akira Kurosawa) samurai movie, They even a SAMISEN music as contrast to the RAP they put in the new AC For a Western developer not from Japan, all these details shows that they put effort in their research, and I appreaciate that

[@thedarkknight2221]

The only person I know of who loves Ghost of Tsushima as much as I do, and your reaction did not disappoint, in fact I’m happy I’m not the only one who felt exactly the same way I did at this announcement.

[@begnaud23]

Man I can’t wait either! I still play ghost of Tsushima, the story and the legends mode lol ooo I’m excited

[@ErikDayne]

I follow a KZbinr named Tmartn2 who does gameplay walkthroughs, he was how I was introduced to Ghost of Tsushima. I actually didn’t know Louise was a fan of this because I started following her channel with the Mandalorian so I’m super excited to see that she likes this too. I’ve never actually played the game as I’m an Xbox kinda guy and this is a PS exclusive but MAN this story is epic and emotional. If this sequel game does as well as we all expect it too I would LOVE to see a Ghost of Tsushima movie one day. Heck make it as a Lord of the Rings style movie trilogy, if it’s made by people who love the source material that would absolutely SLAP.

[@begnaud23]

@@ErikDayne Idr for sure how I was introduced to this channel, but I used to never watch reaction videos and I think I only just started watching reaction videos maybe last year. Idk how true it is but I have seen stuff about mentioning making like movies or series of ghost. I’d have to look more into it, but man if that’s true, I’m soo down for that! Lol Me and my brother used to play like halo and gears of war on Xbox I miss gears of war lol

[@chillowatt456]

Looks like a possible anthology

[@masonmarlatt15]

Possible? Seems relatively obvious

[@thitran1362]

If there is a third one I hope they go with the Meiji era Japan, it would be super interesting to see the decline of the Samurai class in that setting.

[@Nyx_2142]

@@thitran1362 Or the attempted revival by rebels. Would make an interesting perspective if they could pull it off well. Though, there are so many stories for them to tell in general.

[@davidshaw123451001]

Yep, could be the fall of the samurai period next.

[@darkkallous705]

Ghost of Yoteï The protagonist's name is Atsu. He reveals that Atsu's journey takes place in 1603, more than 300 years after the events of Ghost of Tsushima. Our story takes place in the lands surrounding Mount Yōtei, a towering peak in the heart of Ezo, a region of Japan known today as Hokkaido. By 1603, this region was outside of Japan's rule and filled with sprawling grasslands, snow-covered tundras, and unexpected dangers. This is a far cry from the organized samurai clans that lived in Tsushima

[@rockerojerez349]

Let's fucking goooo 🎉🎉🎉 Ghost of tsuhima 2 but it's Ghost of Yôtei I'm SO freacking excited 🎇🎆🎉

I believe your reaction to Ghost of Yōtei wins the internet. You can really see the slow realization, and when that excitement hit, it really hit! So wholesome!

[@thedarkknight2221]

As soon as I saw the black and white footage of what looked like Japan I immediately thought about Kurosawa mode in Ghost of Tsushima, but I wasn’t convinced until I saw the logo for suckerpunch studio, then I lost my shit.

that's it , im beating tsushima again

[@GeorgHaeder]

She is carying a Shamisen on her back, this music instrument originates from China and it is believed that it was introduced over Okinawa into mainland Japan via the Port City of Sakai. There is also a guy in the trailer who wears a Samurai armor with a helmet which has antlers on it, which also looks eerily similar to the Sakai family armor you had to retrieve in GoT.

[@MrOmali]

I loved your reaction;) The best so far😀

[@dracosithlord8153]

[@sprtcus1798]

What if the mc was a descendant of tomoe? Since tomoe escape to the mainland. And then she spread the story of the ghost in the island of Tsushima where shes from and then it inspired this MC to be like the Ghost? What if????

[@JayEmersontheman]

Hear me out, the wolf (if they try to make her a distant relative to jin or the Sakai clan at all) would be the spirit of Jin helping guide her and we find out about that more than halfway into the story. Lmao

[@pedrobernardes98]

I can see that being implied

[@IloveAliBromley]

It's 1603 so Jin is dead by now

[@rockerojerez349]

Jin it's father that woman it's a daughter?? I don't understand 🤔

[@Chiefahleaf]

Ghost of yotei takes place 300 years after tsushima. Not related most likely

[@Big4ofThrash]

​@@Chiefahleaf Or if they are, it'd be very distant, like she could be his great-great-great-great-great granddaughter.

[@JayEmersontheman]

@@Big4ofThrashexactly. Pretty sure they’d do SOME tie in but if sucker punch is smart.. they won’t do a distant relative like that to force it. I would prefer they do something along the line of including Jin as a LEGEND in one of the legend quests or have a quest in which someone briefly mentions the tale of a GHOST on the island of Tsushima that helped rid of it of mongols 300 years ago. That would make it hype enough to know he’s lore without tying it in too much for fake glory points.

[@JayEmersontheman]

By “fake glory” I don’t mean I wouldn’t like the game if they made her a relative cause I’m sure they’d write it well BUT I just don’t see myself caring too much when it’s 300 years apart so Jin would be at least a good 8-10 generations removed especially during this time period (20-30 years being a good number to estimate between gens back then with life spans being around 60 average for the oldest in those two time periods).

[@ErikDayne]

(Potential spoilers for anyone who has not played Ghost of Tsushima) Hey Louise 👋🏼 This just gave me an idea and I wanted to see what you think about it. On a scale of 1-100, how much would you like to see a Ghost of Tsushima movie trilogy? I’m thinking if it’s made by people who love the source material, that could be Lord of the Rings levels of epic, with intense action sequences, emotional character beats, set in this massive world. I’m thinking of the LotR battle of Helms Deep night battle except it’s that time when Jin invaded that castle at night before Lord Shimura could attack the next day. I’m thinking of the final fight between Jin and Lord Shimura and it reminds me of the Luke vs Darth Vader fight from Return of the Jedi. I’m thinking of Jin’s friends like Yuna, her brother, and the crazy guy that sold Saki to the Mongols, and it reminds me of Luke Han and Leia. And then the part where Ryuzo betrays Jin! The final battle against the Mongols where the camera pans out and you see that Lord Shimura actually did show up with his army to assist the “Ghost of Tsushima”, because even though they have their differences, Lord Shimura still knows in his heart that the “Ghost” is still his nephew that lost both his parents and he only wants to protect the people of Tsushima from suffering the same fate. And that reminds me of the battle of Helms Deep when it seemed like all hope was lost, but Aragorn and Theoden rode out anyway only to find Gandalf and Eomer and the Rohirrim waiting on the hill to save the day. Second question, how do I already know that on a scale of 1-100, we will both agree this would be a 101 😂 I can only speak for myself but the Ghost of Tsushima tattoo leads me to believe you will concur 😂

[@seniorordenanza2387]

Aight excuse me while I go play Ghost of Tsushima again. Also fun little fact, looking at the year this game is set and the time Ghost of Tsushima is set, it seems about 300-400 years has passed. So unfortunately our boy Jin has long passed but I would not be surprised if he’s either a legend or even a legacy type of mission where we get something that belonged to him like his armor. Wonder if he eventually settled down with Yuna?

[@petetrc9671]

it's Tomoe 😍

[@Dracobyte]

Let's goooo!

[@MACARLIN]

Invasion of Tsushima took place in 1274 the trailer points out that its 1603. That’s 329 years later. Jin will not be in this game. Possibly mentioned in a storyteller quest, but that’s it.

[@laszlodajka5946]

[@LouiseJulie_]

I think the wolves will be the new foxes!

[@Big4ofThrash]

@@LouiseJulie_ I'd say fox shrines might return as foxes were sacred in Japanese culture due to being the natural enemy of rats, which would eat rice crops and burrow into rice paddies. We'll soon see how significant the wolf or wolves will be.

[@JayEmersontheman]

Don’t think it’s a pet but more like the foxes as forementioned. I wouldn’t be upset though if it was the same wolf this time around over and over and it was named (seeing as it had multiple screen times here) and maybe it comes into the story to help at some point.

[@michaelwilliams7695]

I find it funny that everyone keeps saying is that jin when the date says 1603 which is over a hundred years so I don't think that he's even alive

Not only over a hundred years, 300 years lmao but she’s right about the date. Either you’re one of the few that remember that small detail or you saw it online and are pretending you know everything about it and memorized it like it’s that important to know everyday of your life.

Yeah but that could be cool though. This could explain why they’re using all new weapons and technologies which will make the game feel new.

[@rosswardell9000]

@erikdayne5429 it's set similar to 'Shogun' which is 1700s japan and also similar to 'blue eyed samurai', plenty of opportunities in that period and suckerpunch have already stated they wanted a fresh slate for a new character. If they carried on with Jin I reckon it would discredit and dilute alot of the actions he takes in the 1st GoT, but that is just me.

[@Nyx_2142]

@@rosswardell9000 Shogun isn't set in 1700s Japan. Its set in 1600 exactly, 3 years before the date of Ghost of Yotei of 1603. 1603 is just after the end of the Sengoku Era (depending on the month it could be just before even) and the beginning of the Edo Period, which started when Tokugawa Ieyasu (Yoshii Toranaga is based on him heavily) united Japan and became Shogun.
