Ghost of Yotei is touted as a brand-new experience by Sucker Punch Productions, succeeding the legendary Ghost of Tsushima.
Ghost of Yotei is rated "19+" in Korea due to sexual content, gambling, and strong violence. The game is set to launch in October for PS5.
Details on the reference gathering trips that helped bring the studio's fictional depiction of Ezo to life.
I don't understand where this is coming from, they act like they failed in that department with the first game and that it was a massive issue for them when it reality they did so well on it a lot of Japanese devs praised it.
Are they scared western journalists are going to do the same thing they did for the first game where they don't outright say it but they give off the impression there's some sort of racist undertones with a game set in Japan being made by Western developers.
Well, you don't get a sea of pink sakura petals as shown in the thumbnail above.
I've literally been stood in an avenue of blossoming trees this week and, while you do get petals on the floor, it doesn't look like that. That thumbnail looks like someone spilled several cans of pink paint all over the floor.
I also took multiple photos.
Furthermore, that size and number of trees would not produce that volume of petals.
Don't believe me? Come out here. I'm literally a 5 min drive from fantastic views of Youteizan. Cherry blossom is still in full swing but will be over in the next week.
I'd be worried too if a bunch of fat old pron addicted right wingers went around pretending to be outrage at the "historical inaccuracy" in my game. Fake outrage causes financial harm, tho I'm sure the usual suspects will be up in arms by the release to feel outrage about a female MC.
So, without the benefit of seeing the initial article, did the writer misrepresent or make stuff up that the above commenters reacted to believing it to be true?
Ghost of Yotei’s non-linear revenge tale risks feeling fragmented, but there are some options out there to give Atsu’s journey the weight it needs.
My time has come and gone. 🥷
Listen, at SP and Sony, about 30 people and (I hope) extensive focus group testing were involved in this decision. Something that did not happen with Sony's Concord management team.
Sucker punch studios have had almost the same talent for a long long time. They are a much smaller team compared to other Sony studios. They are gamers themselves so please trust their judgement. If they felt Jin would have been better SP would do it
Sucker punch has been with Sony for decades and make awesome games. Please let’s not put them in the same box as UBI and their agendas or any other greedy studios
I think it's the right direction. Making a fresh new time period & place with a new protagonist & story, somewhat what S-E does with it's Final Fantasy games. Keeping the Ghost games fresh & new.
