I'm going to be so pissed if I hear in the actual game "That is not an honorable way to fight!" from any characters.

Some stuff from the IGN interview
-Jin does serve a shogun who has not been shown yet
-The game does shipped with Japanese language option
-Getting in the temple could have been done in different ways
-The part where he stab the guy though the screen was not a scripted moment.
-They will share details on the combat later.
-Their is a progression system, like with the grappling hook he got that on the course of his adventure.
-The evolution on how he fights back is the key to what will keep you engage you will keep finding new ways to wage war.
-They are looking at Kurosawa films and John Ford westerns to try to translate the cinematic nature of those moves into the game

Jin looks like a handsome dude to me. *shrug*

Maybe giving his ninja attire some distinctive features will help him become more memorable. The writing and personality of the character will be more important.

I can't believe the reveal footage was just a side quest.

Sucker Punch trying to 1-up Naughty Dog in blowing us away.

Holy duckfuck this sounds so perfect.

Having to go semi-ronin (Ghost/assassin) to repel the Mongol invasion is such a beautiful concept, cause it kinda clashes against the nobility of the samurai who are sworn to serve a shogun under their Bushido way, etc...

Good grief, Sucker Punch. Big league money moves.

I have had no desire to play the Infamous series so I haven't played a Sucker Punch game in some time. This has my attention though. Hopefully it turns out well.

30000 leaves in that scene.

O____________O

And many thought PS4 can't do such type of effects and physics because it doesn't have NVidia Gameworks.

You can play the game with a Japanese voice track. Even with a cast of mostly native Japanese speakers, they still have a dialogue coach for the game for authentic ancient Japanese.
This is so amazing. I'm sick of people miming foreign accents in English.
It actually annoyed me a bit in the AC:O footage shown. Ancient Greece, and people speak modern English with bad accents.

Gameplay designer described the combat as "a couple mistakes and you're dead" , and "need to stay focused, put the controller down for a second and you're dead". Sounds like a bushido blade type of combat and very realistic. I don't see difficulty options being a thing in that case.

-30,000 leafs on the ground in the duel
-half a million pampas flowers in that field
-They wanted a feeling of intensity and danger in the combat
-Square button swings your sword exclusive reveal!
-Jin Armor changes ,it has both mechanical value and narrative value.
-Dynamic time of day and weather confirmed, like rain and windstorms
-If you roll around alot in the mud you will be completely cover if it starts raining it washes away all the mud and blood
-Simulated clouds all dynamic, not painted, never going to be seen twice.
-Procedural skies and procedural sun break tech
-The swordplay is all mocap
-The photoscan the ground from Tsushima and out it it the game.

I wonder why some developers are cagey about how their games actually play. Would've liked to known more concrete details about the nature of this game's combat system. Only thing we got is that square swings the sword. :P

Anyways, the more I read about this game the more interested I get. I wonder how far off it is.

I missed that part. I wonder how much reduced all of those will be on vanilla PS4. I bet even the reflections on puddles and many other effects will be either gone or toned down.

They said that the player can choose if they want to go full samurai or full ghost in any situation. Another point to the leak being shockingly accurate.

It probably has to do with that some systems could change since its in development and they are tight lipped due to that? Either that or they want to surprise everyone with more gameplay showing said features.

Yeah.. that makes the demo so much fucking better. Between what TLOU Part II showed, to finding out this is a side mission, to more info for Cyberpunk, these 3 are the most anticipated games for the rest of the gen.

Hopefully Kojima stops fucking around and show us a proper gameplay reveal to get back on the hype level.

Plz be a spring 2019 release plz
Really hoping this is an April-May release.

The leak was from the same person who leak detective pikachu Right? So not too surprised that it's looking to be pretty accurate...

What leak?

Also by ghost way they mean he can become a ninja? I really hope this, not just some type of rudimentary stealth but full ninja style.

So choosing a way is like choosing actions in Infamous games good or bad karmas.

I really like what they showed except the combat.

Sure it looks stunning, that's for sure.



I just too like pressing a button and automatically killing 3 people without any imput from me.

I'm sure there is directional input akin to something like Arkham or even AC3 combat.

So true. I can't think of anything else that can top those games graphically or gameplay wise this E3. And yeah Kojima is trolling but I am sure his gaem will be the most interesting to play.

Dynamic time of day with that lighting? Not too surprising maybe considering how good the lighting was in infamous, but that wasn't dynamic.

I'm sure they will explain that mechanic fully in due time.

At least its sounding like a couple hits and youre dead type of game to balance out the quick kills.


Dynamic time of day, another point to the leaker saying you can pass the time. So the Day 9 of the invasion is probably just a chapter thingy. In past SP games there was no dynamic time or being able to change the time (not artificially through a menu). Good stuff.

The only thing i wish at this point, it's the sword fights have deep mechanics like stances and it's not just push square like Batman or Assassin's Creed.
