Shuhei Yoshida's Played 'So Many Versions' of Ghost of Yotei, and It's 'Always Felt Great'

sorry but wasnt the biggest fan of Ghost of Tsushima it was a clear icons off a map Ubisoft style game.

im hoping the sequel will be better

@Bluetrain7

Ghost of Tsushima was one of the best games of last gen, hopefully Yotei can live up to its quality.

@trev666 Or you could have just completed the 25 hour story and did the interesting stuff like the Mythic Tales and completely ignored every icon on the map(which don’t even show up naturally since the map has a fog of war)

Major hype!!! Sucker punch bring it

Ghost of Yotei is the game I am most excited about this year. Can’t wait.

“As the game is brought up, the former PlayStation executive only has glowing things to say about the studio.”

Wait, whaaaaaat? Someone affiliated with PS is saying good things about a PS studio? This is a shocking turn of events I could never have foretold!

Sucker Punch ALWAYS deliver. Yotei may even top KCD2 as my GOTY.

@UltimateOtaku91 sure was mate. Fond memories. The dlcs were fantastic too. Particularly legends for me

@dskatter well maybe he’s just being honest. Shuhei is a legend mate and doesn’t come across as a liar

Tsushima is such a great game and I'm really looking forward to Yotei. I have confidence Sucker Punch will deliver.

@ChrisDeku Yea but the whole "Follow the environmental details to lead you somewhere" is kind of ruined since you can either clear every outpost and clear the fog or just happen to uncover a question mark without even going near it. Still love the game though and way better than what Ubisoft wishes it could more than a decade ago.

@PlatinumMikey If you genuinely thought he’d ever say anything bad about one of PS’s top studios, I have a bridge to sell you.

@Bluetrain7 Bro, what? It's not even the same author.

@dskatter no I genuinely believe he’s not a liar. Did you play got? It was amazing so why would this not be ygm

@dskatter Name one of you fav studios and we will see how many times its affiliates said something bad about it.

@N0CYmr0k @PlatinumMikey Wow, you two are taking a comment poking fun at this article WAY too seriously. Name me ANY Sony or MS guy who will say something bad about ANY Sony or MS studio.

Now reread my original comment and note the absolute non-seriousness of it.

And yes, I played GoT. One of the best games of the last ten years, and I platinumed that sucker.

I could not be anymore hyped!

@dskatter Well it is pretty hard to see irony in a written text even with emojis being used.

Sorry for that and yes I can't imagine anyone telling the public that his products suck. 😁

@dskatter do not try to make out that comment was sarcastic in anyway lol. You clearly doubled down 😂 and yes it’s one of my favourite games of all time tbh

Ghost is tsushima was overhyped for me.. Found the character and the game just dull and boring. It world did look stunning, and the westerners feudal Japan/samurai fantasy desire was met in that sense, but there was nothing exciting about it as a game itself which is more important for me.. The RPG element was weak. .. For all who did enjoy the first, I'm sure the second will be better and you'll enjoy it.

@dskatter Shu actually a pretty honest and strict guy.

He said Demon's Souls was garbage when he tested the final version and Japan Studio was involved in the game development.

And according to Cory Barlog, Shu didn't like GoW 2018 prototype when he visited Santa Monica to check the demo. Shu just shook his head and walked out from the room

I like the ghost of tsushima and subsequently will like the ghost of yotei.

Ghost of tsushima is a instant classic. Easily one of the best video games ever made. I'm going to miss jin sakai is amazing.word up son

@Bluetrain7 It's all good! Hope things pick up for you soon.

@trev666 I've a feeling you're going to be disappointed. Imagine buying a game and then complaining that there's stuff in the game for u to do. Stuff that's optional as well. 😂

@Bluetrain7 You don't find a genuine apology all that often on the internet, especially when it comes voluntarily. But you made a good example. Respect.

@JustMyOpinion it was not made for u not every game is going to click for people

@ChrisDeku you mean clearing the map from fog by accessing towers/lighthouses like ubisoft made famous in the farcry games

@trev666 That doesn’t happen. Just admit you’ve never played the game.

@Slayer25c Oh really? That's sad because I thought the game was made specifically for me and only me... No one else, just me.. And I thought only my opinion was valid, no one else's............

Got to be the instrumental version. This blade will cut

GoT was Mt PS Studios game of last gen. Sucker Punch is as talented as any team.

@JustMyOpinion
“ And I thought only my opinion was valid, no one else's............”

oh no, that puts your username into an entirely new light!

Jokes aside, I think one thing to keep in mind is it’s not “westerners feudal Japan fantasy”. The game represents “Kurosawas feudal Japan fantasy” very well, which made it also very beloved here in Japan. To me it didn’t feel at all like “westerners” fantasy, but as a Kurosawa fan, it felt like a love letter to Kurosawa.

Qte for reals 😂

Add another one in the "this game is way overrated" category! I know it's not necessary to say that, I just want it to be clear that there's people out there without an anti-ubisoft hateboner
that don't like the game too. Personally preferred greatly AC Shadows and Rise of the Ronin myself.

Seriously hyped for this game and loved the first one. This one looks just as gorgeous.
(I also feel like someone left the back door open with the people complaining about Ghost of Tsushima. We really need to get a lock for that thing.)

Yoshida is out here enjoying his downtime. Great to see it.

Also, I am super excited for Ghost of Elote(I know it's Yotei, I am just having fun with it.)
