From IGN: "Resident Evil's survival horror and Ghost of Tsushima's open world action couldn't seem further apart on paper, but the worldwide appeal of both games makes them weirdly similar according to a former Capcom producer.
Speaking to IGN, Hiroyuki Kobayashi said the U.S.-based Sucker Punch's creation of a globally appealing Japanese game like Ghost of Tsushima is very similar to how he and his colleagues at Capcom created the very American seeming Resident Evil franchise.
"As a game about Japan made by non-Japanese developers, Ghost of Tsushima kind of reminded me how we [at Capcom] as Japanese developers made a horror game set in the United States with Resident Evil back in the day," he said. "At the time, it might have been surprising for people that it was made by Japanese developers."
Rumours and murmurings suggest that Ghost of Tsushima 2 will be announced soon. Here is what we'd love to see in the sequel.
I would be on it. Especially if they change up the gameplay to differentiate from first game. Loved the first.
Currently enjoying Rise of Ronin.
Both have different gameplay but it amazes me how people kept comparing just because they both are samurai. Seems kinda ...... that im not gonna mention.
Bend studios making a gaas game and getting lot of negative comments abt that direction.
I hope these stay faithful to making amazing SP games..
Probably my most anticipated to be announced
I hope Jinns story continues and we get way more stealth tactics like dragging bodies away and the like.
I fully expect this game to be announced. Late 2025 release perhaps.
Either way I can't wait for its announcement at Sony's showcase.
I'm hoping for more complex interior level design for stealth gameplay and also a more complex stance system that's more than rock paper and scissor for each enemy type
I have stopped pre-ordering games since Cyberpunk 2077 fiasco...this is a game I will make an exception for...
Sucker Punch's open world epic stands head and shoulders above the most recent game that takes inspiration from it.
Ghost of Tsushima is one of my favorite games all time. Hard to live up to that. Not all games are going to be equivalent to some of the best games ever and that’s ok. It is a natural comparison though
Totally agree, as a jaded gamer well into his 30s I didn't think games could hit like Ghost it Tsushima did. I actively avoided story missions in order to pursue every single side quest purely because I didn't want it to end. I wanted to be immersed in that world for as long as it lasted.
I hate open world games. Its clutter and fatigue. Except GoT.. I completed every thing before going into next main mission. The feeling of playing the game was.... I cant explain. It was perfect
An enjoyable counterpart to Ghost Of Tsushima, with some truly excellent combat, but the bloated open world elements can often suffocate your enjoyment.
I love this because at its core his statement is a giant middle finger to journalists trying to play the subtle racist card about how an American studio was making a Japanese game.
“Oh hey remember when we, a Japanese developer, made a game based in the US with a bunch of white guys”
It's actually odd, just a week ago I was thinking about this exact thing, that resident evil was in an American setting but made by Japanese Devs. I don't know why I was thinking of it and I certainly wasn't drawing any parallels to Ghost, but there you have it. Get out of my head internet.
I’m sorry, but I will never f*cking understand how this became a controversy. We have so many American made movies that take place with and Star people with different culture.
When did this become something to be frowned upon? The world has become so annoying that it makes me want to puke.
Make good games that I like and I will buy them . Wherever they come from isn’t a factor . Though I do enjoy Japanese made games I play all types of games from many countries I’m sure . Not that I ever try to find out where they came from .
That's the similarity you're talking about -_______________-
