    Yuriko's side quests broke me, the final one with her saying she heard her mother calling for her in the field. Then calling Jin by his father's name Kasumasa with Jin going along with it as it leads to her death.

      Abbas Akbar I loved that Norio’s quest line is one of the only ones that don’t end in a climactic battle, you and him get geared up to raid the camp, and you as a player are ready to do your thing.
      But then you wake up, and you find Norio has just fucking burned everyone wicker man style so there’s no one left to kill and the quest just ends. Really cool subversion of the mechanics.

Starts as a crook basically conning his way through life and using EVERYONE, but at the end with Jin's good influences he turns into a man who cares about more than just himself.

    @RadiumBadger Před 4 lety +98

    I spared Jin's uncle. To me it made more sense to the development of Jin's character. To him his love for his uncle and family is stronger than his ties to the Samurai and enough blood had been spilt by then. For me that bit was the true moment of Jin fully embracing the ghost.

    • @DevilHunter1994
      @DevilHunter1994 Před 4 lety +21

      I never really saw Jin killing his uncle as him holding on to his ties to the Samurai. If anything, it would be love for his uncle that would motivate him to grant this request. This is the end Shimura wanted for himself and that would be the only reason that Jin would go through with it. He's killing him because he loves him and wants to respect his final wish.

    • @r4nsom__
      @r4nsom__ Před 3 lety +25

      @@DevilHunter1994 I think people also fail to realize what it would mean for Jin to just walk away. He's essentially sentencing his only living relative to a life of misery, where he is constantly reminded that his own nephew (whom he loved like a son) is an outlaw and is being hunted like a notorious criminal. Shimura would also likely be the one they call on to perform the execution if he's ever caught.
      I never felt like Jin was resentful of the samurai or that he hated the tradition, he just felt like it wasn't sufficient for protecting Tsushima. He seemed like he would have gladly gone back to living in his estate and reconciling with his uncle once the invasion was dealt with. So the Ghost ending kinda just felt like a slap in the face if you look at it that way.
      But tbh, I think there's a solid case for either ending. Really great job by Suckerpunch.

      It might make more sense as an American or someone who isn’t well versed in Japanese culture. That being said, I’m reality and especially in a Kurosawa movie, if Jin doesn’t kill him then his uncle would end up taking his own life or the shogun would demand his head anyway.

    • @RadiumBadger
      @RadiumBadger Před 3 lety +5

      @@JBurnz001 Nope, the whole "code of honor" with samurai was incredibly overplayed in films and media in Japan. In reality Samurai were more enforcers of a law, they would use stealth tactics and the whole "Samurai stand-off" only occurred if there was no other way to infiltrate the enemy camp or Castle.
      As for Jin's uncle, the Shogun would have not ordered his death and he would have to redeem himself in the eyes of the military. Sepaku was really only done when a samurai went against the orders of the Shogun. It never happened if they failed their mission.

    Interesting discussion on the ending. I (like Greg) personally chose to kill Shimura out of respect for his commitment to the Samurai code. For Jin to make the decision to defeat his uncle and LEAVE him to survive is not what Shimura would want, despite it being what we as the player want as he is our last remaining family. After everything, the least we can do is defeat him honorably and give him a warriors death. It was a more selfless decision, while sparing him is a more selfish decision. He seems to finally forgive, reconcile and calls Jin his son when you kill him. Also - don't ignore that doing the honorable thing grants you the white ghost armor, while dishonoring your uncle by sparing him grants you the red armor.

      By killing your uncle it is implied that Sakai will have some peace now that his uncle is dead, basically no one will hunt him since now Tsushima would have no ruler to follow the shogun's orders and he will not have to be tied to the ghost. While forgiving him means that his uncle will be forced to hunt him forever, and he will have to live with the weight of being the “ghost” forever. This is reinforced in how in the ending where you forgive him, his uncle tells him “You know that the ghost will be haunted for the rest of his days” to which he responds with “I know” and puts on his mask, symbolizing that he accepts to live as the ghost forever, plus he ends up living in a semi-destroyed hidden house, implying that now as a ghost he will never have peace. While in the ending where you kill your uncle, Sakai lives in a much better built house, implying that he can now live relatively in peace without having to carry the weight of the “ghost.” By the way in japonese culture white means death, while read apparently means “self sacrife”

    Interesting points on killing uncle. I killed uncle because Jin knew what it was to be samurai. If his uncle lives, his life is over. He goes back to the shogun a failure and he could be told to commit seppuku, or he’d be forced to hunt Jin down and he doesn’t want to do that either. So a warrior’s death was the only “win” I saw for uncle.

      I loved Shimura, so I made the decision to kill him honorably and respect his wishes as a Samurai, despite Jin moving past that and assuming the role as the Ghost. It is interesting, as reading the subreddit has led me to realize it is not just a binary decision. Some people kill him out of respect and love, others killed him out of moving forward or even resenting him. Some spared him to not give him the honor or satisfaction in a warriors death out of spite, while others spared him because they loved him/he was Jin's last family.

    I killed Jin’s uncle in the end, I felt like that was the best way to honor him and to show that even though Jin became the Ghost in the end his roots are still in the samurai honor and traditions, it definitely gave me the feels, this was such an awesome game, great job SP 👍

    I embraced ghost from the second we could do stealth. But I personally love stealth games. So all my skill points went straight into ghost stuff from the start. The only stance I played the game on was stone counter enemies and killing them with bow/assassinations. I hated Jin's uncle, pushing the way of the samurai when jin was trying to save the whole island. So out of spite of the uncle, I let him live. To dishonor what he would of wanted. People who talk about the stealth complain its too simple but personally it was so much fun with just the right amount of tricks.

      I didn't hate Shimura but I knew he would turn on me. At the end I ended up thinking for a long time about killing or sparing him. In the end I spared him because Jin says he has no honour, even says Shimura's a slave to it. And I know he wouldn't be a slave to it right after by killing his last relative for some samurai honour code.

Such a great side story that hit hard closer to the end of the game when Arthur is nearing the end of his journey.

    I chose to kill Lord Shimura at the end, as for me Jin's journey went full circle. He only became the Ghost through necessity to defeat the Mongols. You hear that talked about a lot especially when he begins to use the poison. Whilst Jin's path moved away from the Honour of the Samurai his childhood flashbacks of him and his Uncle made me think that now the Khan was defeated he would retire the Ghost and become the Samurai his Uncle wanted him to be.

      I completely disagree. Shimura had many of his own people killed while fighting the Mongols. He was so stuck on the "obey your Lord no matter what" part of Bushido, and it was going to cost them greatly. Jin may have broken Bushido by fighting cowardly, but he chose to save his people, a different part of Bushido, which a Samurai in this period was all about. I strongly believe sparing Shimura is the canon ending

Also liked Jin’s development throughout the game realizing that the Samurai way of doing things doesn’t work, slowly becoming more emotional throughout the game. Also RIP Sora and Taka.
