Spoiler: Minor spoilers

seeing the Togo rice fields burning

I wonder if next gen we will finally get a game where we randomly pull up on battles, not little fights like 3v3 or 5v5, but like 30 vs 30 and shyt like that and we can jump in to help or help a town defend itself from an invading attack randomly and shyt. I really think a lot of games don't do justice to the war theme they try to give off. Have yet to play an open world game set during a war, where the world actually felt at war, granted Ghost of Tsushima has it's moments but it could still be better.

didnt shadow of war have that ? and the new AC ?

Can’t speak on the black dye merchant because I think he’s in Act 2.

I randomly found the white dye merchant on my way to do a mission with Masako. He’s in the upper left of the first part of the island.

Just got the perk where you can critical strike someone jumping off the horse. You gotta time it right, I caught a spear right in the grill. Mongol just looked up in the air and swatted me down like a fly.

Is anyone else spending Act 1 just clearing the map and leveling up those skills?

exactly what in doing

Haven’t found the black dye merchant yet.

But the white dye merchant is in Wanderer’s Pass

Speak of the devil...

Spoiler: Exploration spoiler, not story

I was in the Kashine Hills in Izuhara and came up on a watchtower surrounded by Mongols, and a Samurai archer blew up the Mongols black powder caches and killed all but one of them. You already know who handled the last one.

 

[Kwéyòl]

Ik this game is called ghost but I wish you could be more samurai like in the story

 

[old pig]

the return of dope action single player games that ain't 5 to ten hours

I can’t say it enough tho how impressed I am by the substance behind the side missions...it doesn’t feel like busy work...except for that one bytch who lied to get some rice

 

[old pig]

It's almost there. Only thing that prevented it from being on red deads level for me, is that there isn't much to do in towns. Like in red dead i can go to a saloon and have a drink or play poker. They need to add something like that in the next game. After i kill a few bandits, i should be able to visit the local tea house and have a geiasha dance for me while i play whatever they used to play back then. Didn't they have some dice and cup game or something like that? i dunno

Also need a way to advance the day and night cycle. But outside of those two things. It's up there.

ya the lack of interaction at times when you’re free roaming places it shy of games like RDR2 and BOTW for me...but riding around exploring shyt has definitely given me flashbacks of those games

 

[old pig]

That's why I spent act 1 grinding and getting all my equipment leveled up and shyt. I had a strange feeling act 2 was gonna have a difficulty jump and sure enough it did.

ya at my current rate I’m gonna be close to maxed out on skills/ability before I hit act 2

 

[old pig]

Got to Act 3

damn...are you just mostly doing the main missions?

 

[old pig]

yoooo...explains the constant rain/cloudiness

So according to the creative director, the weather isnt only influenced by your flute, but also by whether or not you embrace the "ghost" persona. Frequent use of "dishonorable" tactics via the Ghost skill tree will result in the island reflecting that symbolic darkness.




Going Stealth In Ghost Of Tsushima Will Affect The Weather - GameSpot


Basically, as you succumb to the darkness, so does the island.

Samurai = sunny, clear weather.
Ghost = ominious, foreboding weather.
