      Yeah, but that really wouldn't be enough to get the blade clean. A proper cleaning would probably involve some water, an oiled rag and then some cloth to dry it off completely before sheathing it.

      If thats how you clean your dishware then its not very clean..it was probably still done if you had no clean cloth or grass etc otherwise it might just spread it over more of the blade.

      The quick motion to throw off the blood is called chiburi. It’s something that was done in later times, when the form of the technique became more important. It’s very cool and there are different kinds of techniques to do it, but it’s definitely not enough to clean the blade properly.

      @@TheSoCalledZoner1 honestly listening to shroud critique a game other than battle royal games is mainly biased. Besides comparing. DMC to GOT that sounds stupid they are no where in the same category. DMC is just a linear hack and slash game that plays metal music with nothing more besides that, sure its a good game series but thats just it. GoT. Has actual story and character development and the fact that in has to deal with morality and honor choices as the game progresses. The music is stunning, the graphics are breath taking, the combat in the game is very fluid without glitches(as far as I have seen). So him calling the game "edgy" made him lose credibility and honestly it made me question did he really play the game and pay attention to it actually.

    I absolutely ADORE the waypoint/traversal system - having the wind guide you is ingenious. There's no mini-map distracting you from the gorgeous environments so you're not riding around looking at a line on a map. Instead, I'm paying complete attention to my surroundings and the environment. Such a great mechanic that I really hope we see in more games. I would always try to shut the map off in Witcher 3 but I would eventually need to turn it back on because I'd get lost.

  • @MrLolx2u

    What I like about this game was the cultural reference they have brought to the table.
    I'm a Chinese fella who had practiced Kendo for about 8 years when I was young and I'm currently practicing Japanese Buddhism under the branch of Nichiren Soshu and whatever the game does as a Buddhist reference, it's uncannily similar or close enough.
    For example, early on during the funeral of Jin's father, you could hear the monk at the back chanting: "Myo ho ren ge kyo ho ben bon dai ni" which translates to "The Lotus Sutra Verse Number 2" and the whole thing is at an extremely slow paced and that's how we chant it during a funeral service.
    The swordplay they did in the game isn't unknown but its fantastically done, especially the one where you cut thru the bamboo to practice your swordskill. It makes sense to cut thru bamboo but like the expert had mentioned, its easily chipped. However, it din't matter that much to feudal Japan as many of these swordsmith are legend as they are and their blades don't really chip that much if its made by a real master at its craft. If you think bamboo was bad, someone was even worse. Instead of using bamboo, some of these Samurai would stack criminals that are ready to be executed like a tower where their belly is on each other's back and then try to "test their blade" on these would-be executed criminals by cutting them up into halves with one hack. If it goes thru 2 guys cleanly, it is a good blade. Anything beyond 3 is amazing. This practice continued deep into WWII where military officers would bunch up captured POWs or even civilians (That's because WWII IJA were really that fucking sick) and lob off as many heads as possible with one stroke to practice their kenjutsu and also test their blade strength and lethality.
    Overrall, a great game with accurate cultural reference and also, great graphics and awesome swordsplay to boot. However, the only drawback I felt that the game could do better on was the voiceover. It was horrendously bad that everyone has close to zero emotions when they speak or total lack of feelings and the lip sync was so bad sometimes that the voice comes out in Japanese but the mouth movement was so out of whack that when they did the Kurosawa effect, it was even more amplified. Other than that, good game.

    6:27 One correction I have to make: The katana that samurai used did not have this feature. They are referring to the 20th century katana issued to the IJA for their modern conflicts. What they had instead was a snugly fitted habaki, or blade collar, that would create some friction and lock it in place somewhat. However, the samurai did push their blade out past the habaki for much the same reason.

      I think they mentioned it in the first one, whilst also pointing out that it's more of a traditional gesture than actual cleaning (I might have gotten it mixed up, I watched several historical reviews on the game). To really get the blade clean you'd probably need some water and a piece of cloth.

    • @Mk_Otaid
      @Mk_Otaid Před 3 lety

      You can't even clean water off a blade properly by just violently swiping the air with it, let alone blood which starts sticking and drying seconds after it touches any surface. Wiping it on your clothing is certainly more effective but still not enough. The swipe he does in the game is mostly Hollywood flair as far as I know (which is still cool haha).
      You need a clean (and preferably soft) cloth or rag partially wet to first wipe off the staining and then use the dry part to clean up the excess. Some people also use preservant oils afterwards to be especially sure that it stays in top condition.
      Only after the blade is completely dry should you put it in a seath. Otherwise you just destroy the insides of the seath with all sorts of filth that also damages the blade.
      Not posting all this as an attack or anything just wanna lend knowledge.

      @@tylerbroveak2559 Fair enough yes I've seen it done before and not in movies only but never looked this up in particular. As far as practicality goes though I still don't think it's proper for cleaning a blade and more along the terms of cool factor, that's the only reason I used the term (and again I said AFAIK so I was wrong).
      It's still a real thing though and the devs made sure to include it. We pretty much have to take into account that the PC cleans his weapons during downtime and not actual gameplay and the way I see it adding a gear condition feature was probably discussed but left out because it may have slowed down the flow of the action.

    A shoutout to Lawrence Mok - the last bit of the video, where you see them doing Kata, his movement is incredibly powerfull. A brilliant example of Ki and Tanden use.

    the coolest part is the last part where the both of them are just coordinating a duel or whatever you call it, that's good shit

    My only issue is that when his sword is the sheath the blade is facing upwards so when we draws on the standoff he'd essentially be slicing them with the blunt side of the sword. At no point does he turn it around

    Someone should put the Ubisoft logo on the heads of his opponents as a message to them to say “this is how you make Assassins Creed Japan”

    I like how they went with the Kubrick rule of “get the facts right first, then distort at your pleasure.”

    They're making this game much more sexier than it actually is. Omg. I need a New game+ or a part 2 NOW. with NO female protagonist tyvm

      Why no female protagonist

    • @GamingStar95
      @GamingStar95 Před 3 lety +7

      @@Agencyagent34 because this is the story of Jin Sakai. His story is far from over, and part 2 will resolve it. Won't make sense to throw in a female protagonist to carry on his story. And in his time era there are no such thing as female samurai. Only female warrior's.

    The sword was a very elegant weapon in the days of the samurai. You had honor and chivalry much like the knights, and yet it was a gruesome and horrific weapon 🔪🔪🔪 Sore wa osoroshikute osoroshi bukideshita. Watashi wa Nihon no bushi no jidai ni zutto kyomi ga arimashita 🈴🈳🈷🈸🈯
