>Tsushima had cool sword stances, each utilizing the same weapon, the Katana, in various different interesting ways
>Yotei has: retarded, wake looking dual sword stance, shitty spear combat with no proper weight or flow behind it, instead of being more of a thing that you can finetune stabbing motion over, you just swing it around as if you're slashing with the weapon meant for stabbing, an Odachi (Greatsword) Katana that is strapped to her fucking back and swings around like a slab of iron, handled by a fucking twig ass woman who wouldn't even be able to utilize it properly to begin with
Oh yeah, also, the weapons are now breakable since they have durability. So have fun mainly just being stuck using dual blades because your other shitty weapons with shitty playstyles will keep breaking every few encounters, requiring you to go all the way to some smith on the other side of the map to have them repaired.

Genuinely what the fuck were they thinking making this garbage? It looks worse in every single aspect. Everything that made the first game great, which was the simplicity of it is taken out in favor of needlessly complex and "new" additions that do nothing but make it worse.

This game has stances it's called different weapons, but it works exactly the same way as stances in Tsushima. It's the same game but you're a tranny.

Stop posting about this PSP looking asset flip game.

>>715200548 (OP)
they already got it wrong in the first game, all the stances were some nonsense that looked stupid.

>>715200616
>this game has the same thing except it's not the same thing and you're almost limited in using them

>>715200548 (OP)
>>Yotei has: retarded, wake looking dual sword stance,
not to defend this slop, but i rarely ever see a game where dual katana doesn't look weak. i have no idea where you got the idea that katana are for stabbing btw

>>715200797
>katana are for stabbing
I was talking about the spear they give you to use. She fucking spins around then slashes and bashes with it more than she stabs.

>>715200762
i mean, weapon switching aka stances are even binded to the same button as in tsushima and has the same UI layout lol

>thought it was a Nioh 3 thread
>shitty yotei thread
dang
well even more reason for KT to drop that shitty bolted on Ninja Style

I think a lot of it isn't an issue, but I am a bit annoyed with the speed of weapon switching. You can make an argument for stance switching with a trained swordsman in order to deal with a different enemy's attack/weapon style, but when you have near instant magical appearance of an odachi or spear that's some crazy bullshit that makes everything look weightless. Even AC Shadows only let you wield the two things you had equipped at the time and were visible on the body when sheathed. maybe I'm missing something but this seems odd with Yotei

also unrelated but... I thought the point of this was the northern Japan / Hokkaido setting and specifically the Ainu influence, where the protag's family were Ainu that were caught up in the expansion of the shogunate coming north. . The protag here does not appear to wear any specific Ainu garments nor does she have the very, very distinctive Ainu woman's lip tattoo , so what the fuck is going on?

>>715201541
That's one of the Armor Sets you can equip if you're planning on doing a Stealth Playthrough or whatever. Also, yeah, she doesn't have any tattoos, but I guess you might be able to apply them via some customization option.

>>715200548 (OP)
Would and of you be willing to play this if a mod came out that actually changed her face?
I mean, the story could still be cringeworthy dogshit... but idk.

>>715202018
I'm a hag enthusiast, don't ruin it

>>715200548 (OP)
>Oh yeah, also, the weapons are now breakable since they have durability.
The video didn't say anything about durability, just you getting disarmed from being shitty on your defense.
Probably a nod to samurai fiction shit where dude gets disarmed and he runs down the grassfields to pick it up while eyeing his enemy. It's a dumbass trope that even Samsho had as a mechanic from as far back as the first game.

>>715200548 (OP)
>had cool sword stances, each utilizing the same weapon, the Katana, in various different interesting ways
Which didn't matter at all once you got the one stance that lets you just spam kicks.

>>715201935
All right. I'll wait and see (when it comes on PC and fuck Sony for any delay), but I hoped there would be at least some cultural variations here specific to the area besides conventional feudal Japan.
>Lip tattoo customization
I can only hope its an option, from the single dot to the almost joker-smile level thing some women opted for. Also I'd like to see an option for her to play one of the traditional Ainu instruments - she seems to play a shamisen which is fine I guess, but if the issue is the culture clash from Honshu daimyo and/or shogunate coming north, then she could play a native instrument as well t.

>>715200616
>game: has a weapon that has different firing modes
>game 2: has different weapons instead and theyre breakable so if you like using shotguns, for example, youre fucked
how is this so hard to understand? They just spread the same thing across different stuff
>trannies
oh yeah youre a perverted retard sorry

Post the webm.

No it didn't

you didn't play it.

>>Tsushima had cool sword stances, each utilizing the same weapon, the Katana, in various different interesting ways
No, they all sucked and were part of a shitty combat system. In that sense this is more of the same shit

>>715200548 (OP)
Y'all mad desperate to find something to hate about this game. Kinda sad desu.

>>715200548 (OP)
You know a spear is just a staff with a knife on the end right? Its perfectly viable to smack people with it, especially omi-yari which had long short-sword like blades. That said I would have preferred a naginata, which should have been in the first game considering its time period. Also she handles the odachi with some control and speed, definitely not like a slab of iron.

>>715200548 (OP)
>New combat
Yeah I'm nervous. None of the weapons looked good. Production value looked like Rise of the Ronin level, which was shit.
>New open world
I like what they showed in that you unlock more shit by fathering info and deciding which info is more immediately relevant. That's actually cool.

So far I'm half and half. Disappointed in how same-y it looks on the surface, interested in how the new systems might make it better than Tsushima. We still know nothing about the protagonist's personality yet though. Hopefully we more of that before release.

>>715202781
>Breakable
You can get disarmed, your weapons don't break, retard.

>>715203502
>. Production value looked like Rise of the Ronin
They should actually lean into ror all the way and produce a fun combat system. I fell asleep playing tsushima

>>715203648
the woman cant even hold a sword lol
anyway, and what do you think happens when you get disarmed? Youre forced to use another weapon, you dumb fucking idiot

>>715200548 (OP)
What are you talking about. This is the exact same shit as the first game but instead of changing stances to fight specific enemies you change weapons. Exact same shit, just as dull and unengaging rock papers scissors system as the first one

The stances were poorly implemented in the first game anyway. Beyond that one that let you close gaps really quickly to kill archers, all of them basically amounted to:
>switch to this stance to break guard faster
None of the secondary attacks were terribly useful at all. Big shout out to the last stance that kills fatasses easier having a twirling secondary attack that deals LESS DAMAGE than the primary unless you abuse animation canceling to do it very quickly.

Having 20,000 huge weapons strapped visibly to your body just looks dumb unless you are playing Conan the fucking Barbarian. Bitch would have difficulty moving at all and would sound like a bunch of pans being banged together when she moves.

Still not buying it no matter what because they deliberately cast some DEI cuntwhore instead of one of the millions of other Japanese-American women out there.

>middle-aged woman can carry 5 different weapons on her back, constatly swap between them and fight for hours against fully grown men, in semi-realistic setting, without any special powers.
Why aren't there more female warriors? Why is she the only one like that and no one mentions that?

>>715200916
my bad, anon. i missed the part where you mentioned spears right after lol

>>715203881
>What do you think happens when you get disarmed?
They haven't shown it yet. Either you switch to a new weapon or you scramble to get your other one back. There's no "durability" like you said, there's an attack designed to disarm you which if you don't counter leaves you unarmed.

>>715204161
>Having 20,000 huge weapons strapped visibly to your body
>Bitch would have difficulty moving at all and would sound like a bunch of pans being banged together when she moves.
Ghost Stranding would have been cool, actually. Imagine just lugging all that shit around on a push-cart and she has to daintily lift it over her head before going into combat. The kino that could have been.

>>715204383
Women are far more spiteful, angry and mentally ill than man. Combine all those three into the character of this game, who made it her entire life mission to hunt down 6 people and murder them in cold blood for killing her family and you get what you get. She is able to do and withstand all that based on sheer malice and mental illness alone.

>>715204806
You jest but that's basically how the trailer described her.
>Atsu (or whatever her name is) doesn't care if she lives or dies. So long as she can make the members of the whatever clan pay for they did to her family.
Bitch is psycho from the jump. Fueled by pure hate.

>>715200548 (OP)
The only viable gameplay option for this should be archery since that's the only thing she would be good as a woman, and historically it would actually fit with the type of fighting women did during that time period. Mainly horse archery.

>>715202340
>Get disarmed by enemy
>Sword falls into a crevice and off the map
What now?

>>715205161
They said enemies can switch weapons too. You can probably steal it off their person mid-fight and use it against them, the way Drake does in Uncharted 3/4. Atsu has the same kind of takedown moves, they mentioned it but didn't really show much.

>>715205161
Then you do nip nong ching chong jutsu to quadruple sowcow down the cliff to retrieve it and throw it at the enemy chasing after you, where he then goes "KUSO! MASAKA!" as he dies.
IYOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

>>715203038
All the stances were just a flavor of RPS, which is the same for the new weapon styles. The actual movesets weren't deep, very simple few hit combos. Some of the stance moves are strong outside of their respective enemies like kicking, or the stone triple stab, or the water quick slashes.

Its super boiler plate though, compared to stances in say Nioh or having a real combat system like Nioh.

>>715206818
NTA but

lol

Ugly feet, would not sniff or let her fart on and jam in my mouth

>>715209852
why the fuck are feet the first thing you look at you degenerate?

>>715211585
I can't see her pits or hairy asshole well in that webm you stupid fuck and she's clearly not flatchested

nobody would care about this stuff if it was a male protagonist. Most don't even care its a female because we have more important things to worry about. The only ones who care are misogynists. It's also not about politics, or pushing some woke agenda. All excuses for the fact that these people who hate women in video games have never gotten attention so they go online and have tantrums like children
