People are saying jins story is incomplete and I agree. What they could do is tell us what happened to him through the storytellers. For example, the Sakai katana could be a legendary myth and you end up finding it because the musician helped you. Also telling what happened to him throughout multiple storytellers and musicians would be great. Being able to play as Jin temporarily while the story is told would be fire 🔥🔥
I was not expecting this but I'm SO glad they announced it. I'm going to miss Jin and was hoping to play as him again. However, I like that this game shows that he started a legend that continues even centuries after he's long gone.
I have a theory. I think there will be a prequel where you play as Jin to close off the events of the first game and then it will go to the present day and somehow link to the new character.
I wouldn't be surprised if Sucker Punch took inspiration from Kill Bill and a famous Japanese series called Female Prisoner Scorpion making this new game a lone 'wolf' revenge game just like the aforementioned titles. Her dressed in yellow screams Kill Bill, and it being set in what is now Hokkaido is interesting. During that time (1600s) Hokkaido was a law-less state and what is equivalent to what we call the Wild West in the US. As much as we all will miss Jin, hearing and seeing his legacy and legend from another POV can be intriguing.
@@OGP2293 not just Tarantino movies. There's also japanese movies and series that influenced this game. The female protagonists actually looks like the one from the Japanese series "The female prisoner". Which is also a tale about revenge. These type of movies and series were popular in Japan in the 70's. Shout out to sucker punch for paying homage to Japanese cinema just like they did in the first game. Too bad grown men have to cry about a female lead when in reality this type of genre is a staple in Japanese cinema. Oh well let them cry as usual I guess.
@@bigpoppa3999 i ain’t saying jack until i see the reviews and experience the game for myself. If Sweet Baby Ink or any other DEI company has any influence on this game it will be a dead giveaway immediately if not then we are good
Remember that you could get armor sets and skills by following the quest for 'legends'? There could be a "Jin Sakai" legendary quest in new game, because he would be (if his deed has been passed down the generations) a legend.
Maybe they could upgrade the Mythic Quests a bit and make it so there's an entire questline for Jin where you acquire his sword, Ghost Armour, and Clan Sakai Armour. Making it a longer questline could not only fill in the gaps with little tidbits of history after the first game, but it could also hammer home the legacy of the Ghost, which was an important part of the first game's themes. That, or the story of Jin Sakai could be implemented in the main story in some way. Perhaps the protagonist, not a samurai or anything, but some random ronin, feels she has some big shoes to fill.
No, the second invasion was seven years later, and it was much bigger. The second invasion also included Chinese and Koreans, which could bring new fighting styles to the game.
Sadly even this is getting hit with the culture wars stuff. But I'm unbelievably excited. And a great game will shut people up real fast, so long as it is actually good!
That would be awesome I hope so I know it takes place I think 300 or 400 years after ghosts of sushima but that would be a really awesome concept that I hope they go with
See, this game has a female protagonist, we don’t hate it, you know why? Because the gameplay looks good! The story looks interesting and the goodwill of the first game is still there! It isn’t that hard!
No idea why people would complain anyway. Makes no difference to me. I’m a girl and I don’t complain that male characters are involved as main character.
Absolutely. I’m really looking forward to playing this. But we know there are going to be those online who will make videos calling it woke just because the character is female which is just sad. Ryan Kinel, TheQuartering, YellowFlash2 : “This game is going to suck because the main character is female! It’s so woke!” Us Fans: “You guys really are f*gs!”
@@ninjaweretiger4273 until you start realizing theirs a certain narrative being pushed for both men and women, you won’t. But once you realize them trying to manipulate you, it gets annoying and makes you jaded to things when you can see them clearly.
@@ninjaweretiger4273the problem isn’t the sex of the character the problem is when a female is pushed into an obvious male role and the woman is there just for the sake of a woman.
Congrats on 80k bro, I discovered you ever since the rumors of Gotham knights (at the time known as just a new Batman game) years ago and been with you till now. Next stop, 100k!!!
I love the idea of a whole new island, story, and protag. Somehow I think they'll weave the legend of the Ghost Jin Sakai into the story, however. 2025 is truly gonna be the most lit year in gaming history.
Yeah definitely. There will 100% be people talking about the Ghost of Tsushima who defeated the Mongols. And no doubt he will get a mystic tale, probably to wear his ghost armour
Some of us were waiting for a Jin sequel. Others wanted to at least play as a Samurai. It's not surprising why people aren't thrilled to play as Atsu, the cliche silent strong woman.
I’m kinda excited if the whole Ghost series going forward will function like an anthology of characters, where each character exists based on an important time period in Japan.
Ghost of Tsuchima was annonced 2 years and 9 months before release. If the Ghost of Yotei comes out in November 2025, we would have known about the game since february 2023 with the same time span.
I will say overall this game look pretty good what I have seen so far still I will missed Jin Sakai who was a great character I enjoy from GOT unfortunately with the new protagonist here I don’t know how I feel about yet on here but again we just have to wait and see next year for this one to hopefully surprise me just like the first Ghost game from Sucker Punch
The world is oversaturated with sequels and remakes and whatnot. It's good that Sucker Punch didn't do a direct sequel. They're going to be more unique thanks to this. The Ghost franchise can now span the entire millenium, if they want it to be.
At least they can announce this game yesterday and release the following year. Unlike other games that get announced to early and some bomb or over deliver….
I 100% agree, however I think execution of certain things definitely do matter. Jins story felt incomplete, even after the DLC. If they some how create an epic way to tell us what Happens with Jin I think people will be more pleased.
There's been a LOT of female characters recently. And all of Sonys' first party studios are involved with Sweet Baby Inc., so it's not ridiculous to be cautious. The actress playing the main lead is also an activist and a they/them so...
Kind of sucks that people are already shitting on the game as soon as they saw it wasn't Jin but a Female protagonist the haters are already claiming " woke culture " & " sweet baby inc " and that's really sad because Sucker Punch Knocked it out the park with GoT we have to let them cook in the next instalment of the Ghost Series of games
listen the reason why i believe a reason to be mad at a sequel to this game and have it be a female, its not the one we spent the entire first game with lol they coulda went that route and had a lot of people be fine but whatever we’re here now as long as the games good
Sucker Punch is the only western studio that still has my trust. Also I've heard some speculation that the new MC is a part of native tribes there and that is her connection to the wolves. That she's pretty much Princess Mononoke. It also makes sense for it to be an anthology series because they calling them cheeseburger Samurai stories. Which, like spaghetti westerns, usually has a new character in each one. Now I just wish The Last of Us did the same thing before making 2. I did not need to see more of Joel and Ellies story
I have a little over 500 hours in GOT and it’s one of my favorite games. I think I’ll probably skip this one, I just don’t think it’s for me. Besides the new location I can’t say I’m a fan of any of the changes. Plus to me what “the ghost” is, is clearly very different from what SP thinks the ghost is. Which is fine, I just don’t think it’s for me.
So you wanted the sequel to be Jin Sakai in Tsushima/Iki? I don't understand. What else was he supposed to do? I'm on my 3rd playthrough and you're probably a decent person but you sound retarded
I hope they elaborate on what happened to Jin after the first game. Maybe in the form of folklore “Legend of the GoT” something like that would be cool.
It needs to come out early 2025, especially if GTA6 drop fall of 2025, i plan on buying both regardless, I'll just like to have it come out months before GTA6, with Wukong dlc dropping early next year 2025 already looks like a great year for gamers
The Female protagonist doesn’t matter it can actually work really well the only thing that matters is if she is well written and knowing sucker punch she and everyone else will be 2025 is gonna be lit
I was disappointed about it. They should lve continued with Jin. Imagine the potential they could've done with it. I don't mind Atsu. They could've used that for the 3 game or a dlc for it GOT 2
A part of me is happy that we finally have a new ghost game but I'm also hoping that this will be like a Miles Morales type of game, and we will get GoT 2 after this where we continue Jin's story.
I hope they explain why she also has the title of ghost. Is she connected to jin in some way? Or is it just what the game is called? I really hope we will still get some snippets of what happens to jin. What if Jin is the wolf reincarnate! Holy s*** that would be sick😱
@@Spencestar Yea but Jin is the Ghost. So she has to have some connection to Jin im thinking. Unless it's just some random coincidence that she happens to get the exact same title as Jin, which would be kinda lazy writing in my opinion.
I hope I can make my old outfit again. I came up with a really cool one in first game. If not I of course hope there are many new options that fit my style.
The fact they had a state of play and had ONE game to look forward to. Is just sad and kinda makes me worry i may eventually take a huge and long break from videogames
Looking at the comments of this game everywhere, where everyone wants to go back to Jin, I feel strong Arthur Morgan vibes back when RD2 was announced.
As much as I enjoyed Jin in the first game after I honored his uncle's request and killed him,that long cry was the end of his journey, with 2 being set 300 years later i can't wait
If the game wasn't being set hundreds of years later, then I would be disappointed not playing as Jin, hopefully they'll be people in the game that talk about the events leading up to our game and he'll be mentioned throughout the stories
Greatly prefer Jin but I’m sure the game will be great. I just disagree with moving away from his character so soon given how open the ending of GoT was and how beloved of a character he is among fans. Sony had another poster child in him. I also think it’s becoming stereotypical for a beloved male character to be replaced by a female iteration. Nonetheless this game should do well.
I would have liked something in the GoY video game trailer that said this is going to be a good video game, not a bunch of clips thats trying its hardest to “appeal” to me. This gives off a heavy commercialization and capitalization vibe. It’s unfortunate their ambitions of making Ghost into a big franchise is turning such a unique IP into something that feels so generic. It seems like they’ve traded soul for flashiness and what “works”. Queue the auroras, the flashy art direction, mass appealing and safe protag, and the Japanese folk music with a western twist. I guess that’s how you catch new eyes. I would suggest that it’s by standing out and doing something different, but maybe that’s just me.
I kind of get why some people aren't a fan of Jin being put aside. I really liked him and there was a possibility for a new story with the whole Second Invasion and the samurai hunting him down. However, creating a Second Invasion on the same island would basically make the second game a DLC. Same map and same enemies, but with a slightly different story, most likely. Additionally, the whole samurai storyline feels to small to be made into a full game. It doesn't feel like a storyline that could match up to the first game. And also, one of the main questions that is brought up time and again in the first game is legacy. How do you want to be remembered? The legacy of the Ghost over hundreds of years is an interesting overarching theme they could explore. Perhaps looking into how difficult it is for Atsu to fill in Jin's legacy could be a core story element. Lastly, it allows a lot of new things. A new period. New cultures in the new areas. New weapons. New tools. New abilities. New stories. New characters. Just my opinion, though. I'll wait for more information to determine further if the game and especially the emotional investment of the main character is worth it.
They spent a whole game setting him up and dropped his war with the mongrals and the chinese do they could chase feminist bs again ruining a game cause of women I'm done not buying it or watching anything about it when it comes out
Great video, looking forward to Yotei. Not to be pushy, but I was wondering how the video about the 5 IPS that WB should rent out was coming along. I'm just asking because so many people are talking about the potential of Batman Arkham Beyond.
I really hope we still get a jin sequel, the ghost legend will most likely have a big part to play in this game, in a jin sequal we can see jin furthur exspand the ghost legend, ans on top of that, the sequal littaraly set up a sequal for jin at the end soooooo, the people saying "jin story is complete" didnt play rhe game, or misremembers.
Right now I'm playing as a badass monkey in Wukong, so I could care less about the character being a female, as long as she kicks ass which I'm sure she will,that's all that matters to me
I don’t think there was enough material to continue Jin’s story without it being too similar to the first game. And regarding the Infamous thing, I agree that Cole may be a tad bit more likable but to me at least Delsin is just way cooler and more fun to play as plus “Troy Baker”… do I need to say more?
There was a second invasion of tsushima by the Mongols in real life. There were multiple to be frank. There was plenty of material. Disappointed they didn't continue on with Jin but alas it's their game series.
@@ashtonderojas821 I heard about the second invasion but my point is it’s just the same premise as the first game (driving the mongols back). This not being about the mongols again makes it quite interesting and unique in my humble opinion.
Honestly pretty disappointed not seeing Jin. A bit similar to not playing as Geralt in the Witcher. But at least with that we knew for years that we wouldn’t. I’m Not a big fan of this surprise. But we’ll see how it goes I guess. As of right now I’m Not really interested in it. I gotta say I disagree with you a bit. Being someone who loves history I’ve know about the mongol raid for years. And I just always assumed we’d get another one with Jin. And I’m sure Many did as well. Plus there was so much to tell. The ghost’s army. Lord shimura hunting Jin. Fighting on both fronts at home and defending against the invasion. The whole clan of yarikawa. And just fully embracing all the lethal tactics of the ghost even further. I think they should have told us a while ago. At very least that’s what CDPR did.
I can’t wait for this. Not sure if they’re gonna do a new protagonist with ever new release but they could always go back and make a ghosts 2 if this one sells and they decide to add to Jin’s story. Oh and I don’t care if it’s a female protagonist. Nope not one bit
Jin is easily the best character playstation has had since Kratos and they take him out of the story? It could go so many directions and they just chose to move on from him
Hate to be the guy that says woke for everything but the fact that jins character writing was so good, also open to more development, and it ended with multiple interpretations on how to take the future story fustrates me that they changed the character. Not because its a women. But because it felt like they wanted to meet the modent sony trend of replacing beloved male characters with females instead of following the logic of the next chapter of story telling. Either that or they just wanted to add guns
I hate anthology shit... that's y I never got into final fantasy at all. It's not a good way to tell story.. so y is it called ghost of if not a sequel????. Y use the name. It's all because they don't have any fucking creativity to make a new game. It's all about using the franchise names and then fucking them up and making them something totally different than what it was cause no creativity
Really disappointed about Jin not returning, thought there a way a still a lot meat on that bone but I’m excited for Atsu’s story. I’m confident it’ll be 🔥
The game might not be as completely of a jump from Ghost of Tsushima as we think it is. I think the new character Atsu might be a descendant of Jin Sakai. Maybe Atsu learned of her ancestor (Jin Sakai) in some way, that Atsu decided to finish Jin's legacy by being another Ghost.
"300 years later...they're obviously going to do this for a reason."
The reason: "Guns...lots of guns."
This would be cool and I love the dual wield
I hope they let us do a gun and katana build
Can’t wait to fire and take 2 minutes to reload a single shot musket lol I can’t wait for this game
People are saying jins story is incomplete and I agree.
What they could do is tell us what happened to him through the storytellers.
For example, the Sakai katana could be a legendary myth and you end up finding it because the musician helped you.
Also telling what happened to him throughout multiple storytellers and musicians would be great.
Being able to play as Jin temporarily while the story is told would be fire 🔥🔥
This game SAVED the State of Play

I agree.
100 percent agree, I would have loved to play as Jin again but he truly got the best ending to a truly epic story.
I have a theory. I think there will be a prequel where you play as Jin to close off the events of the first game and then it will go to the present day and somehow link to the new character.
You can continue to play GoT if you want to replay as Jin. No need to have GoT 5th game.
@@DeathComeInPeace not once did I imply that I want to play as Jin. I just thought of a creative way that they could pay homage to Jin. That’s all.
Oh dude, the new character is fine. IMO. Because it clearly looks like they’ve expanded and deepened their existing systems.

If the game wasn't being set hundreds of years later, then I would be disappointed not playing as Jin, hopefully they'll be people in the game that talk about the events leading up to our game and he'll be mentioned throughout the stories
Greatly prefer Jin but I’m sure the game will be great. I just disagree with moving away from his character so soon given how open the ending of GoT was and how beloved of a character he is among fans. Sony had another poster child in him. I also think it’s becoming stereotypical for a beloved male character to be replaced by a female iteration. Nonetheless this game should do well.
I agree with what you said until the replacing male characters with female characters
Facts! Well said
They should've continued on with Jin, feel disappointed about it.
@@dawudabdulali3827 Jin, Joel, Nathan drake, ratchet, the list goes on but I digress. U don’t have to agree but that’s the reality.
@@DSB542 same
It's a shame they won't continue Jin's story, but at least now I can enjoy the hot springs scenes. 😁😉😏
As a Japanese, I confirm that you pronounce Yōtei (羊蹄) just fine. It's not that complicated anyway 🎉
We’ll see Jun Sakai in the Secret Level series
I really miss Jin.
4:53 I know exactly how you felt when you said this 🤣🤣🤣
60, Year's From The Ghost Of Tushima Anthology
Lol i thought the dude in the beginning of the trailer was jin on the first watch 😂😂
Atsu sounds like ezio if anyone notices that
I would have liked something in the GoY video game trailer that said this is going to be a good video game, not a bunch of clips thats trying its hardest to “appeal” to me. This gives off a heavy commercialization and capitalization vibe. It’s unfortunate their ambitions of making Ghost into a big franchise is turning such a unique IP into something that feels so generic. It seems like they’ve traded soul for flashiness and what “works”. Queue the auroras, the flashy art direction, mass appealing and safe protag, and the Japanese folk music with a western twist. I guess that’s how you catch new eyes. I would suggest that it’s by standing out and doing something different, but maybe that’s just me.
I kind of get why some people aren't a fan of Jin being put aside. I really liked him and there was a possibility for a new story with the whole Second Invasion and the samurai hunting him down.
However, creating a Second Invasion on the same island would basically make the second game a DLC. Same map and same enemies, but with a slightly different story, most likely.
Additionally, the whole samurai storyline feels to small to be made into a full game. It doesn't feel like a storyline that could match up to the first game.
And also, one of the main questions that is brought up time and again in the first game is legacy. How do you want to be remembered? The legacy of the Ghost over hundreds of years is an interesting overarching theme they could explore. Perhaps looking into how difficult it is for Atsu to fill in Jin's legacy could be a core story element.
Lastly, it allows a lot of new things. A new period. New cultures in the new areas. New weapons. New tools. New abilities. New stories. New characters.
Just my opinion, though. I'll wait for more information to determine further if the game and especially the emotional investment of the main character is worth it.
They spent a whole game setting him up and dropped his war with the mongrals and the chinese do they could chase feminist bs again ruining a game cause of women I'm done not buying it or watching anything about it when it comes out
@@chrishoward79 Okay, if that's what you want. To each their own.
Jin could have went to the mainland to fight the shogun. It didn't need to be the same map again.
@@Ruddy-u8s Fair enough. It's still the Mongols, though.
Great video, looking forward to Yotei. Not to be pushy, but I was wondering how the video about the 5 IPS that WB should rent out was coming along. I'm just asking because so many people are talking about the potential of Batman Arkham Beyond.
I have to second that, how is it coming along. Also, yes give us Beyond Arkham.
I'll tell you what, I'll mark it officially to be a video that'll come out next weekend and I'll shout you out!!!
@@PodcastNow Thanks man. Hope I'm not being too pushy.
I need the push sometimes lol
@@PodcastNowPersonally. Right now. I just want to see videos about Arkam Beyond.
At least the state of play show something new at the end. Thank God.
Name an IP that has successfully swapped a male protagonist for a female.
I can wait.
There never will be.
Any predictions on the next Xbox showcase? Maybe 1 more before the game awards
This didn't stink of woke, Japanese movies with sword wielding woman, this seems good
Did the horse riding look weird to anybody else ? Looked different for sure
I really hope we still get a jin sequel, the ghost legend will most likely have a big part to play in this game, in a jin sequal we can see jin furthur exspand the ghost legend, ans on top of that, the sequal littaraly set up a sequal for jin at the end soooooo, the people saying "jin story is complete" didnt play rhe game, or misremembers.
It's over bro. He served us well.
@@HiphopisaGIF how do you know uts over ?
@@HiphopisaGIF they can still very well go back to him
At this point I just want Sony to stop replacing main characters with lower quality characters.
Please let us use a naginata
The only bad thing about the trailer is that the main character is female but other than that it looks great
What’s wrong with female main characters?
Other than Lara Croft name me a great female character
@jackjones9054 from that answer you don't care about a character you want an object to look at and jerk off to.
Right now I'm playing as a badass monkey in Wukong, so I could care less about the character being a female, as long as she kicks ass which I'm sure she will,that's all that matters to me
Thinking that saki granddaughter or daughter in my opinion saki had kid at one point and then die some how we don't know until we get more information
Looks Awesome!’
I don’t think there was enough material to continue Jin’s story without it being too similar to the first game. And regarding the Infamous thing, I agree that Cole may be a tad bit more likable but to me at least Delsin is just way cooler and more fun to play as plus “Troy Baker”… do I need to say more?
There was a second invasion of tsushima by the Mongols in real life. There were multiple to be frank. There was plenty of material.
Disappointed they didn't continue on with Jin but alas it's their game series.
@@ashtonderojas821 I heard about the second invasion but my point is it’s just the same premise as the first game (driving the mongols back). This not being about the mongols again makes it quite interesting and unique in my humble opinion.
then we probably much going explore the same Island over again.
@@badgamer2129 no khan said Mongol will attack mainland so we might havr explore tokyo and kyoto
Atsu is 100% hunting Jin. I have no doubt in my mind
It’s 300 years later. Sorry but Jin is dust by now
Mythical tale would be the only way we see him again. They for sure gonna pay homage in some way.
Jin is long gone by the time of this game. She is probably a descendent of Jin.
@@elviraweekes3906 Probably, but I just don't believe there's not gonna be Jin in the game. He'll probably appear in a flashback
Brother, Jin is 6ft in the dirt.
does sony not want to preserve any of its characters. Jin was awesome
so did sony erase jin? stop with the fake outrage
hi Podcast Now
Honestly pretty disappointed not seeing Jin. A bit similar to not playing as Geralt in the Witcher. But at least with that we knew for years that we wouldn’t. I’m
Not a big fan of this surprise.
But we’ll see how it goes I guess. As of right now I’m
Not really interested in it.
I gotta say I disagree with you a bit. Being someone who loves history I’ve know about the mongol raid for years. And I just always assumed we’d get another one with Jin. And I’m sure
Many did as well. Plus there was so much to tell. The ghost’s army. Lord shimura hunting Jin. Fighting on both fronts at home and defending against the invasion. The whole clan of yarikawa. And just fully embracing all the lethal tactics of the ghost even further. I think they should have told us a while ago. At very least that’s what CDPR did.
what if atsu is a descendant of tomoe?
Ghost Of Tushima Is Number 1 In Jupan
Looked like it could run on ps4
No Jin …😭
Disappointed… Not pleased
I can’t wait for this. Not sure if they’re gonna do a new protagonist with ever new release but they could always go back and make a ghosts 2 if this one sells and they decide to add to Jin’s story. Oh and I don’t care if it’s a female protagonist. Nope not one bit
Good you better not, female protagonists should be the default, men have dominated gaming when it's a female hobby.
Jin is easily the best character playstation has had since Kratos and they take him out of the story? It could go so many directions and they just chose to move on from him
Where is sly cooper 5 dammmit!!!!!!!
No ghost 2 wtf….pissed
More of a spin off than sequel.
Hate to be the guy that says woke for everything but the fact that jins character writing was so good, also open to more development, and it ended with multiple interpretations on how to take the future story fustrates me that they changed the character. Not because its a women. But because it felt like they wanted to meet the modent sony trend of replacing beloved male characters with females instead of following the logic of the next chapter of story telling.
Either that or they just wanted to add guns
I hate anthology shit... that's y I never got into final fantasy at all. It's not a good way to tell story.. so y is it called ghost of if not a sequel????. Y use the name. It's all because they don't have any fucking creativity to make a new game. It's all about using the franchise names and then fucking them up and making them something totally different than what it was cause no creativity
Um, yeah thats just you bud 😂
@@dawudabdulali3827 u don't think this game looks creativity lost
@corytimmons1418 what you said was just you, were sucker punch is going is perfectly fine.
@@dawudabdulali3827 if u say so
Daily sly acknowledgment :)
Damn this was the one game i had high hopes for. Dissapointed.
It's a hell yeah from me 😄
This is yet another reason we should’ve skipped 2024
Really disappointed about Jin not returning, thought there a way a still a lot meat on that bone but I’m excited for Atsu’s story. I’m confident it’ll be 🔥
I like the idea of making "Ghost Of" a sort of anthology series where each one features a new protagonist and new setting.
The game might not be as completely of a jump from Ghost of Tsushima as we think it is. I think the new character Atsu might be a descendant of Jin Sakai. Maybe Atsu learned of her ancestor (Jin Sakai) in some way, that Atsu decided to finish Jin's legacy by being another Ghost.
Will remain cautious😊. If its good on release then thats the time i will buy. No preorder for me.
