[Net_Wrecker]

If this is the new bar for claiming the Weeb Throne, 90% of the field just got pushed off the board

 

[Ladomania]

Pretty cool

 

[Polyh3dron]

For some reason the thread title had me thinking Animal Crossing.

 

[Deleted member 36578]

That's awesome.

 

[Cactuar]

I watched this YouTuber. You have to understand Japanese a little bit for the live chat and commentary. But I can tell you that they get really emotionally invested by the third act, and a lot of people in the live chat was quite emotional by the end of the playthrough. It was great.

Thanks bro! I'm actually checking some of this out via youtube's horrible but better than nothing auto-translate function. Fascinating!

Does Youtube have auto translate for the Live Chat? Cus I think at some points the live chat was more fun to watch than the player haha. But either way it's pretty good to watch.

 

[djplaeskool]

It's hard to overstate just how much Japan adores this game.

 

[el_galvon]

This is awesome!

GoT is awesome!

Still need to finish it tho...

Congrats to Nate and Jason.

 

[RROCKMAN]

Damn to make a work about a culture and land and then to be accepted,

Always makes me happy to see

 

[Huey]

That is so awesome. I kind of wonder if sony reached out first behind the scenes but that's just the cynic in me. Just so happy for SP for this game.

 

[WinFonda]

Incredible gesture. Must be super fulfilling.

 

[J_ToSaveTheDay]

Wow, awesome!

It does not, but what I do when I hit interesting parts is cut and paste the chat into google translate. It's amazing how much more civil Japanese chatters are compared to what you find stateside. Sure there is the occasional quip, but I see very little spammers and assholes.

 

[crimilde]

This is so wholesome. Super glad for Sucker Punch.

 

[Hotbug]

That has to be a huge honor. I remember some people in here being upset at a western developer making a game set in historical Japan, but after finally playing it (and hearing the opinion of several japanese developers) it's absolutely clear that the amount of care and love put into it is astounding. Props to the whole studio, GoT is a magical experience.

I started playing it and I really love it. The only thing though is if you play with Japanese audio the mouth movements don't sync. I feel like that should have been standard.

 

[Toriko]

Absolutely fantastic game and my GOTY from last year. So well deserved and heart warming to see!

 

[Diablos]

What an honor! One of the most impressive ways to acknowledge and award video games (and those who make them) to date.

Ghost is one of the best games I've ever played.

 

[Ocirus]

DESERVED, congrats to both!

 

[Dragon1893]

Damn, that's pretty cool.

 

[IOTS]

The major seems pretty business savvy. Its nice to see developers getting appreciated for work well done.

Yeah, that was my biggest grip with it. I love, love the japanese cast, but had to play with english voices because of the lip sync. Hopefully stuff like the dynamic lip sync in Yakuza 7 becomes standard in the industry and is implemented by the time Ghost of Tsushima 2 though!

 

[Chuck]

Spoiler

for real though, congrats Nate and Jason

 

[HanSoloCup]

Awesome story, really cool to see these guys getting honored for their hard work and passion.

 

[Fuchsia]

Ok yeah this is really freaken cool. Congrats!

 

[Mage_of_Cinder]

GoT has really become more than a game since its release. Congrats to Sucker Punch for crafting an elevated piece of work.

 

[CM_Ace]

Gotta get off my ass and finally play it. It's been on my shelf for months.

 

[Falchion]

That's so fucking cool.

 

[Gunny T Highway]

That's pretty cool actually.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Amazing


also makes me curious if they would do a Ghost 2

 

[hydruxo]

Wow, that's awesome and well deserved. They did a fantastic job of honoring their culture for a studio on the other side of the world. Such a great game.

 

[criteriondog]

Wholesome news!!!

 

[LoadingErrorMTL]

Wow thats a huge honor. Also a nice cherry on top of all the GOTY awards and commercial success.

 

[Rzarekta]

This is awesome.

 

[A Path Finder]

I am playing it on the ps5 right now and it's pretty damn magical. Such a beautiful and emotional game. Seems to me like it's well deserved.

 

[Zemst]

Wow this is amazing. They must feel really proud.

 

[Cheesebu]

Very cool, what an honor that must be.

[Darryl M R]

Very cool - I am considering stopping by Tsushima when I plan out my next vacation in Japan.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Tsushima was such a great and beautiful game. I was shocked tbh that a western dev made something that tasteful about that subject matter. The care showed.
