I have this problem with Ghost of Tsushima which is that the whole plot hinges on your protagonist, a rogue samurai abandoning his code of honor and resorting to underhanded tactics and guerilla warfare to save his home which puts him at odds with his noble mentor and uncle who lives and breathes the samurai way. The problem is gameplay wise I am literally never tempted to use the Ghost methods unless the game actively forces me to. If I wanted to hide in bushes backstabbing patrolling groups of guards like some boring asshole I could play literally any sandbox game released in the last 10 years, if I want to play a goddamn samurai game I play Ghost of Tsushima. It's also way easier and more efficient.

I could write an essay on how the entire GOT soundtrack is filled with a sense of heartache, pain, and anger. How it correlates and, in fact, enhances the story because you feel it so much through the music alone and can also help express characters,,,,, I just- iURHRGRGEHEJ

I AM COMPLETELY SANE AND NORMAL ABOUT THIS GAME GUYS

"Home is behind. The world ahead.

And there are many paths to tread.

Through shadow. To the edge of night.

Until the stars are all alight.

Mist and shadow. Cloud and shade.

All shall fade. All shall...fade."

gestures wildly. it's about crafting a legend out of a living person. how the Ghost is something your friend made up on the spot to make you look cool, but then it slowly starts taking over your life. until you forget everything you believed to be true. until everyone you loved is gone. your clan is disbanded, your uncle disowns you, you have gone from a honorable nobleman to a wanted outlaw. BUT you did it for love - for the fact that you love your people and your island so deeply that you're willing to sacrifice your entire existence for them. it's not something any of their leaders have ever given them, and they see it, so they start turning to you more and more, telling about their encounters with you around survivor campfires, spinning tales until you are a seven-foot-tall monster who has risen from the dead to save them. you no longer belong only to your loved ones. you now belong to the entire island, and you will stay theirs.

I’m about 2/3rd of the way into “Ghost of Tsushima”. One, I did not expect that this game would be about the origins of the ninja. Two, in a weird way, this game is secretly a coming-of-age/generational gap story.

Our main hero is Jin, who represents the current generation. He was raised to follow the ways of his elders, namely his father and uncle. However, the old ways are limited since the Mongolian invaders don’t respect them. That’s when Jin meets Yuna, who is the “rebellious” youth who shows Jin a different way of handling the Mongols. Yuna’s way clashes with the elders’ ways, but she’s getting results. This ends up creating a moral panic in Jin since he’s torn between respecting his elders and doing whatever it takes to stop the Mongols.

It’s straight up a generational gap storyline. If you take away the samurai/ninja stuff:

1) Jin is the young man who grew up in a sheltered, conservative home but grows disillusioned with his elders due to the state of the world he’s in.

2) Yuna is the rebellious young woman who wants to save the world (let’s just say, her brother is her world) and has no respect in the older generation since she feels they are responsible for the troubles of the world, such as Yarikawa’s resistance to assisting Lord Shimura.

3) Lord Shimura represents the older generation that is set in their ways and is, albeit reluctantly, willing to punish the younger generation if they stray from tradition. He also represents how older generations have created problems that the younger generations are forced to deal with, such as Jin and Yuna needing to mend the strained relationship between Clan Yarikawa and Clan Shimura.

4) The Mongols in general represent the troubles of the world that both the older and younger generations have to deal with. However, both generations clash over how to deal with their mutual problems.

jin being forced and being molded by his dad or uncle is so sad because all didnt want to be a samurai in the first place, bro probably just wanted to be a poet like his mom knew he didnt want this, all jin wanted was to protect people and make them safe
