When he encounters that first group and kills the guy with one slash I thought it was a sign of brutal, harsh combat where the weapons are really deadly and you need to know how to use them.

Then the other enemies took several hits to kill and it became apparent that wasn't the case and it's just the usual generic hack 'n' slash stuff (That's not to say it's not got any strategy to it of course).

So yeah I wish they'd doubled down on the deadliness of the swords and made combat a more thoughtful, precise piece of gameplay. The one on one fight at the end looked better though.

Combined with the fact that it's going to be yet another open-world action game and I find it hard to get excited about it, even if it does look gorgeous.

Agreed on the combat. The first slash and kill made me think of bushido blade from way back when. If it took that approach i’d be incredibly hyped about it.

That being said. It looks glorious. The winds effect on the environment just made it look incredibly lush.

Can’t wait to see more. Especially if you get to be a robin seven samurai style.

Ghost of Tsushima will have Japanese audio track option

PlayStation 4 exclusive Ghost of Tshushima drew comments last night during PlayStation's E3 conference from fans wishing that the Japan-set game would feature a Japanese language option. Today, in a press demo of the game attended by Eurogamer, developer Sucker Punch confirmed just that.

The details are still being worked upon, but a Japanese-language option with English subtitles was mentioned. The demo we saw consisted of the gameplay section shown during PlayStation's press conference, but now in Japanese. Plans are afoot to localise the full game, Sucker Punch said.

Featuring a keen eye for detail (Sucker Punch mentioned sending an audio scout to Japan to record, among other things, native birdsong), Ghost of Tshushima is intended as a "time machine" for players wanting an accurate representation of the location and era. A Japanese language soundtrack would certainly help with this.
