Re: Ghost of Tsushima
- It’s an open-world samurai adventure.
- The game is grounded and realistic.
- The E3 2018 trailer is not part of the main story, it’s a side quest!
- The game is a original work of fiction they are not rebuilding history stone by stone.
- Main storyline will be Jin vs. the Mongols.
- Leader of the Mongols is an “uncomfortably reasonable killer” trying to intimidate our hero.
- The main character is called Jin Sakai.
- He’s had to go beyond his samurai training in order to fight back against the Mongols.
- There a lot of stories in the game that you may not find them all.
- There are many side characters in the game, most which have sidequests.
- The theme of the combat is “mud, blood, and steel”. Expect to get dirty and muddy.
- Possibility of other weapons but they’re only showing the katana right now.
- Sucker Punch teases that Jin's combat style abandons some samurai techniques, swapping them for the "violent grace of a silent assassin".
- Jin has learned to use a grapple hook but this is not part of his samurai training. He’s had to learn new tricks to silently kill the Mongols.
- Strong focus on minimalism for the graphics, you see the things that are more pronounce.
- “Movement” is the environment theme, expect everything to move - blowing trees, windy fields, falling leaves.
- Landscapes range from the swaying bamboo forests of the countryside, to the urban centers of ornate castles.
- Everything you can see in the background you can go to such as a Pagoda and Mongol ships, you have the freedom to go where you want at your on pace.
- They want to give players a lot of navigational options.
- There will be a minimal game HUD but they’re not showing it just yet.
- Looks like there’s a photo mode.
- You can play the game with a Japanese voice track.
- Jin’s nickname is “The Ghost of Tsushima”.
- Jin has become a “legend” in Japan called “The Ghost”.
- Jin will change what is wearing. In a rain-drenched part of the world Jin has traded his traditional armor for a straw raincoat called a mino.
- You can ride a horse, is integral to the game. Horse’s name is Nobu.
- Expect that level of detail (E3 2018 trailer) in the whole game
