Ghost of Yōtei's lo-fi beats mode sums up the very best and very worst of this very weird series

Hmm… I still have zero interest in this game series. They can do whatever they want, but I have zero interest in any western developer's take on Samurai.
It's like when Scorsese did Silence—it's nice he got to live his Kurosawa fantasy, but I have no interest in Eastern culture depicted through a Western lense, even if the source material is Eastern.
I wish they just go back to making Sly. I'd be all over an all new Sly game with fancy gadgets and shit.
Alright, I'll bite.
That seems like a really narrow-minded take. It comes off as arrogant, or maybe even prejudiced. Why deprive yourself of an objectively great gaming experience just because of some convoluted ideal that you've made up?
Also, if you really had zero interest, why even comment or be involved in the discussion at all?
Metal Gear is one of my favorite series of all time, and that's an Eastern developer's take on Western culture. Another series that comes to mind is Resident Evil.
I don't see why this is necessarily a problem? Ghost of Tsushima already tells a rather loose story that borders on the fantastical, it never even attempts to be a historically correct depiction.
I didn't say it was? I said I have no interest in it.
You and Sucker Punch can do anything y'all want—I can only talk about my preferences.
Listen, I'm suffering through the drudgery that is Death Stranding's story RN, so last thing I need is for anyone to invoke Kojima in this context 😂 Someone please tell this dude "we don't understand how [insert made up technology] works" is not an excuse for shit writing 😂
I think it's interesting to see a culture interpreted by another one
Though sometimes it's a bit cringe if you are familiar with the interpreted culture
