This Game is BREATHTAKING - First Playthrough of Ghost of Tsushima - Part 2

[@aknelson229]

One thing I love about this game, is how the devs treat the player with respect, giving you information when you need it, not treating you like an idiot but also not abandoning you. It feels considerate in a way I don't normally get from games.

[@CostasSavvides]

it pisses me off when games solve puzzles for me. either let me solve it or don't have a puzzle there at all.

Every time before an archer shoots at you, he will shout "dosho dosh". So when you hear it, even though you can't see the archer, dodge and the arrows won't hit you. Always listen to the surroundings.

Having played through this game twice, the Japanese is definitely more immersive, however the English voice actors absolutely knock it out of the park performance wise. You’re making a good choice Skyy

[@baronnuuke7821]

They are good but far from the Japanese ones. Just listen to the intro scene, Shimura's speech and them yelling while running toward Khotun in the battle, the English is fine but compared to the Japanese it's sounds ridiculous lol

[@nosir7882]

⁠@@baronnuuke7821not at all lol, Jin and Shimura have great VAs. Saying it sounds ridiculous is ridiculous 😂

[@LamarBentley]

If I recall correctly, it is a western studio that made the game. They paid great respect to the culture but I believe it was always intended to be an English speaking game.

[@StopReadingMyNameOrElse]

@@baronnuuke7821 The only ridiculous thing here is this weaboo mindset of forcing people that don't even speak the language to spend the whole game reading subtitles. Y'all are clowns to make such a big deal about this.

[@cback3333]

Yea no, I'm sorry but the game is much more immersive in english.. not to mention it was meant to be enjoyed in English.. its what the cutscenes and lips are synced for.. its the actual voices of the actors not a voice over.. Not to mention the English voice acting is FAR AND AWAY better performed and it's really not close

[@__ds]

57:49 NICE PERFECT PARRY!!! Also, a reminder you can see where enemies are through walls/objects if you touch the touchpad. It’ll help when stealthing or simply knowing where the remaining enemies are

The combat fluidity of this game is unreal!

[@Yeezus111]

The travelers attire will vibrate when a record is nearby. Other armors have other effects 🙏🏽 Another tip: use your Kunai more to stagger big guys & give you breathing room of groups Also, utilizing your heavy attack more will stagger enemies

A glowing dragonfly does that for you as well. My controller vibrates whenever a glowing fly is next to me and guides me to a record or banner.

As you get the hang of it, you'll be switching stances, finish one enemy, switch stances, kill another, throw a shuriken one way, then a smoke bomb, and basically become the most kick ass samurai/ninja you can imagine. You're actually doing very well! I think this game's pace suits you. Nice job!

[@Donk_the_bobo_fan]

2 Episodes and this is already one of my favorite playthroughs. It is also one of my favorite games to 100%, nothing feels like filler when the world is so beautiful and the characters are so engaging. The combat is so good much more elaborate than you would think, if you go into it with a hack and slash approach you will quickly find out how strategic you need to be especially when you are faced with multiple enemies at once.

[@EdwardSwardt]

The game was specifically made to be English, as the actors are all English-speaking and the original lipsynch was also English. While it is a game set in Japan, and I get that immersion may benefit from the localisation, there id no real other reason to switch language.

[@cback3333]

Naw immersion is even better in english.. don't have to sit there and read subtitles while not being able to look at faces etc.. lip sync is in English.. voice acting is better in english.. Only reason to play in japanese is if you just want to hear Japanese lol.. not better in literally any way

[@jayjjey1400]

Tried the Japanese dub, and it didn’t do it for me. It distracting when they talk but it doesn’t sync with their lips

[@Nik-md4to]

@@cback3333 now this where most people disagree. Voice acting is like 10 times better in Japanese.

[@EdwardSwardt]

@@Nik-md4to Yeah it’s a hit or miss. I actually like the Japanese localisation, but the lipsynch took me way out originally. Thankfully they did it properly for PC version, so my second time through was all Japanese. Though playing in English really is better for immersion as cback3333 said.

[@AlbertusDeLosCorpus]

Except when playing in Kurosawa mode.

[@mattx449]

Heal, then end suffering. It yields a decent amount of resolve

[@naveenjjose]

Sounds play an important part in the game - When an archer is firing a shot they'll scream dosho dosh before firing so you can evade or deflect, The same thing happens when an unexplored area is nearby a bird will start chirping and you can follow it to the area.

[@sonalattapattu4402]

And the neat fact about the archers shouting dosho is not just to help you as a game mechanic, but they do it so they can warn their melee comrades to duck so they don’t accidentally get in the way of the shot. You can even see the melee attackers doing a quick duck when the archers shoot arrows. Super neat they added that

[@pedrobernardes98]

About the english/ japonese audio. The original is English, the english voice actors are also the faces of the characters so you're not really playing the dubbed version. Both are great but I think Jin's character really benefits from his english voice actor and how much range his voice has

[@JohnInPixels]

1:05:19 Wow well done on that fight. That was a seriously difficult enemy composition to be facing at your level. GG

[@caragio]

What to follow: - Wind - Fox - Bird - Firefly

[@iameNeRG]

3 tips moving forward: 1. When attacking a base, always go for the higher ground. In this game you can pretty much climb on top of anything. Any structure is game. Definitely go for those 2. If you want to feel a bit more prepared for main tales (the gold icons), I would suggest doing side tales. Also take a long look at the menu, and it will help you a lot on determining which tales to do first. Blue icons (Mythic Tales) are the ones that I would suggest following the most! You will learn very powerful techniques, and the stories are really fun. 3. Traversing the world is incredibly fun, but sometimes can be a bit tedious. That's why this game's fast travel system is the best of the best. If you pass by any Landmark on the map, but don't have the time for it at the moment, you can always go back to the map and fast travel directly to that spot. This goes for places you have already visited before as well. I would highly suggest that. Bonus tip: Check out the photo mode! (Right on the D-Pad) This game seriously has one of the best photo modes out there

[@IFAMILYIH]

PRESS THE TOUCHPAD ONCE TO DO FOCUSED HEARING AND ALL ENEMIES WILL BE HIGHLIGHTED IN RED

[@Agent-57]

I love how the game blends semi realistic textures and lighting with it's artistic tree and foliage. It's not the only game I have seen implement insane amount of Foliage (for example Assassin Creed Origins has big farms with reactive foliage system. But GOT makes it the center of attention with it's unique lighting.

[@TiberianDude]

I had the privilege of going to Japan last year, like this game, the beauty of the natural wonders there is unparalleled , going to an onsen (a hot spring) is an awesome even spiritual experience . and yes, you have to get into them naked even if there are other people there lol ! But I saw beautiful places, and this game offers such good inspiration, even the actual island of Tsushima gave the devs of this game the honor to be honorary ambassadors for the island for all the tourism that they got from the release of this game!

Yes you should always end the suffering of the enemies it gives you resolve when you do it... also after battle try to always use resolve to completely heal then end the suffering to regain some of the resolve you used. Edit: tales are quests the main quests apear in yellow side apear white and special apear blue Special quests will give you special abilities like the heavenly strike quest... also do as many side quests as possible it will help you grow stronger alot faster.

[@Mr.Bradybunch]

also, this game got my wife into cinematic games! she came into my bedroom sobbing after she finished the game because of how much she loved this story! she just started rdr2 yesterday having never played the first one. i’m super excited to see how she enjoys and i am excited to see you enjoy this one!

[@MagdiEl-bizri-y4f]

One thing I want to say is I used to be number 503 in the ghost leaderboard and one thing I must say while moving forward in the story is make it the game more challenging for yourself it’ll be much more fun and more rewarding since the more you learn and upgrade the easier the game is so if you find the game a bit to easy or not as fun I’d recommend changing the difficulty just a fun tip moving forward :) (and another thing is that if you want to find charms do side quests for minor charms and for the gold charms do Shinto shrines anyways that’s all I have to say bye sky!)

[@israkkabir1319]

try the stone stance heavy move.. it will just one shot the enemy.. hold down the heavy attack button and release

[@joefixit347]

yay, more Ghost of Tsushima so soon!

[@ArthurShotgun]

Personal preference but I prefer this game over other recent PS titles like GOWR or Spiderman Horizon etc. Ghost of Tsushima is such a beautiful game with compelling characters, story & setting. Jin Sakai's journey from an Honorable Samurai to The Ghost will always have a special place in my heart. His inner conflict is what imo makes this game one of the greatest of all time. My only problem with it was the repetitive camps, the lack of variety in boss battles & how they implemented Act III. Other than that this game was almost perfect. I hope they improve on that in the next game but overall this game was a 9/10 for me. Carried me through Covid lockdowns ❤ Definitely top 5 PS games of all time in my books

[@aidanyoung4856]

Also, when surrounded by enemies (as you're a beginner) create space between yourself and them to see who makes the next attack, so you can defend yourself and then attack when they've lost their guard. Just like what Jin was telling his Uncle in training "Lure them in and wait for them to strike first" because you're quicker. You're awesome though a lot better than I was when I started playing!

[@RyanLBC]

Love your play through so far! I’m on my third play through on lethal difficulty. Just wanted to stop buy and give a pointer on the FOV. If it looks to zoomed in for you you can adjust it farther back through the settings. If you’re tired of opening sliding doors to enter dwellings and opening locks to caged prisoners just cut through them instead. You can also perform jump attacks. Like on stone stance when you jump and press attack button you can do a jump kick to throw enemies off

[@jessehickman1292]

[@ghost9499]

The Water Stance is effective against all enemies in the game. I recommend sticking to it to keep things simple for you. Finding as many hot springs, fox dens, and shrines as you can before tackling mongol bases will give you more health, more charms, and more practice avoiding enemies until you feel confident you can kill them quickly and/or quietly. Lastly, you'll need a LOT of "predator hides" for crafting upgrades for your armor when you start collecting sets, so boars and bears are "kill on sight". Good luck!

[@kamaro_games337]

Loving the playthrough Sky!!Other developers could learn alot from the User interface of this game. So fluid and gorgeous which increases the immersion greatly. Also, Really love How fast the R2 looting pick up is.. even in battle the supplies just vanish into dust.

[@sundalangur3250]

Wow! Impeccable timing. I just finished watching part 1.

[@the_omg3242]

I started this game quite a while back and set it aside when Starfield was released. Watching episode 1 of this playthrough inspired me to give it another try and I'm really liking it. 24:15 Your attack on the fort when WAY better than mine. I'm only a little ways ahead of you so all the stuff you're doing now is what I was doing yesterday but you seem to be better at it. lol. While the end suffering thing is usually seen as the right thing to do, I think it's funny to think that if someone had done that for you the game would have ended on the beach. 47:50 The tale of Lady Adachi not only has some fun combat, you get new armor as a reward. Also, you can switch between the travelers clothes and armor instantly when you see enemies so you take less damage in combat while still getting the advantages of the travelers outfit while exploring. When upgrading skills, you might want to check lower down in the skill tree. Sometimes you might take a skill just to unlock one you really want. Arrow defense is handy. 1:02:00 That was an awesome battle. I've not yet encountered those big guys, but you handled that group like a champion. It's very entertaining to watch someone that fights that well. One move I don't think I've seen in your first 2 episodes is the thrust/stab. Hold triangle in the stone stance. (in case you want to mix it up from just slashing)

[@suddenimpulse030]

Skyy, I wanted to recommend a game. I have played most of the major games this generation. By FAR the most visually stunning and technologically impressive environments I have seen this generation are Ghost of Tsuchima and Horizon Forbidden West. I highly recommend checking out Horizon Zero Dawn (the setup story is very important) and then Horizon Forbidden West someday. I would watch every episode. The combat is fun, the setting is very unique, and it has a strong female protagonist if thats a bonus for you. Been watching your videos since early into your channels existence here and on twtich and I am so glad to see you are enjoying this game as much as I did!

[@suddenimpulse030]

I would say the difference in environmental visuals between the two is that Ghost is more artistically and atmospherically beautiful and Forbidden West is the most technologically impressive on the visual level. The environments are gorgeous, very detailed and varied. Snow, jungle, desert, forest etc.

[@firecat4529]

Another great video Sky and this game blows me away graphically and from what you and a friend of mine are saying, the gameplay looks smooth and awesome too👍. Seeing you run after that fox during the first few minutes of that episode and falling off the cliff afterwards was the hardest I’ve laughed in a long time😂. See you on the next one👍.

[@guitarman0365]

dont sleep on the shrines. they give you many charms that completely alter your playing. there is one that allows health regen out of combat. it's called mending rock shrine charm of okuninushi. these are major charms and can only be placed in the top two slots minor charms will fill out the rest of your charm slots that are unlocked by doing all the fox dens you come across. Having only two major slots means you have to really pick which ones match the most important play style. For now i do recommend the healing one until you come accross ones you like more. look at the red castle icon on your map then place a waypoint just southeast from there you should see on the map where it says isonade coast. you can go there and get that charm. You will love this game so much. its very close to rdr2 for me as most impactful story. its also just incredibly fun once you get all your tools and stances. you feel badass later on. there is of course some filler moments as with all things but overall the story is phenominal. the ending will impact you i am sure.

Fun watching you play, A few things that helped me on my second play through, Learn which stance works with which enemy type, You can switch on the fly this helps you brake their stance, and look at which armor works best for each task, I would use Ronin for early stealth task and say Gosaku's and Sakai Clan for bigger battles.

[@vxpal]

You could equip the “Hero of Tsushima” armor (which is already included in your edition). It gives you some extra health and defense, so it’s great for early gameplay

Less useful after you get Clan armor from the Lady Adachi mission, which should be 3rd, after Yuna for Hearing/Assassination and Sensei for bow.

[@Perry_Wolf]

Loving your play through immensely! You're doing absolutely awesome with the combat! Don't forget, when being stealthy, to press the Touchpad for focus hearing in order to see where your foes are at, before rounding corners or entering yurts. Slow down, take your time, and be stealthy Jin! With regards to others imploring upon you to play with the language in Japanese, "for full immersion"; The devs actually originally intended the game to be played in English for best experience, but added the Japanese audio as an option to accommodate more ways to play the game. Even with the PS5 bringing in full lip syncing to the Japanese audio, (originally it wasn't and made it awkward to play with the Japanese audio), you actually don't receive the full game's experience in this mode. Later in the game, as you progress, you can overhear the towns people talking about you and how they feel about "The Ghost", which is quite interesting. In the Japanese audio mode these conversations are not subtitled like the main dialogs, so you actually end up missing out on a fun part of the game. The digital deluxe version gave you the horse you picked, but it also gave you the Hero of Tsushima armor set. You equipped the helmet and mask initially, in your last episode, but there was a body armor portion of the set as well that you missed when you first viewed this menu. As you'll find out, different armor and outfits give you different perks. So check them out as you go, they're not just cosmetic, (although I think hats and masks are simply cosmetic, but the body armor has the perks), and will benefit you in different ways and to suit your own play style. You can quickly change armor/outfits on the fly, whether to get the most out of exploration or the best benefits for each battle, and don't be afraid to do so. The Traveler's Armor you're wearing is great for exploration, but should only be used for that. It clears a bigger area of fog on your map as you travel, and of course, vibrates when you're close to collectibles. However, just before attacking an encampment or Mongols on the road, quickly switch to more combative armor. In fact, with the Director's Cut, the game introduce the ability to save armor and charm set combinations. This allows you to quickly change play styles for differing mission objectives. A tip to fast track learning new stances is hinted at in the game tips it gives you whenever you kill a leader. It tells you to "observe" or "kill" leaders to gain points towards new stances. You can actually do both to speed this process up, but it takes being stealthy! Whenever you enter a new Mongol controlled camp, there's likely a leader within and he's likely practicing his fighting moves somewhere. If you sneak up close to him, (the top of a yurt is a great place to hide, enemies don't seem to look up, or within tall pampas grass), it will give you the option to "observe" him. Do so and it will give you a point towards the next stance. Then killing him will give you a second point as well.

Little tip for you very little if you didnt know you can clean and sheathe your sword by swiping right on the touch pad

54:34 It may have been a headshot, but you didn't pull the string back for long enough, so the arrow didn't have enough force

Yes! Just got off work I’m so excited to watch!

The level of story and dramatic involvement was fabulous, and I didn’t see that again until Kratos and later Spider-Man 2. Miles rocks! I’ve come to realize that Miles is a better Spider-Man. My daughter was let down by no Spidergwen. I even learned about Harlem music history.

Idk if someone already mentioned it. But in the settings you can turn on visual cue when archers are about to fire at you off screen so you can dodge it while fighting someone else

You are a very funny, talented person. I enjoy watching your videos. You express your emotions very well during the game.
