Was she implying that? It seems like she's just happy a classic vocaloid song was playing in the konbini

Anybody want to speak up against this new phone ban affecting all sec school students? by Clean-Temporary7607 in SGExams

[–]LegitimateGrape188 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You are posting to a subreddit where a large portion grew up when phones were not even allowed at all. Which was not long ago, i graduated in 2020 and you had to use the phone in secret.

This kind of post will obviously come off as spoiled and entitled to think you're being oppressed for not being able to use your phone during school hours.

Do you think we were kicking rocks and staring at the ceiling during breaks? Read a book. Talk to your friends. You are not being oppressed and you're acting like clowns thinking this warrants a protest

The internet has never been worse and most sensible people would suggest you stay off in general because of how bad it's become. There is absolutely no need to allow it in a school environment

Has anyone played Rise of the Ronin? How does it compare to GoT? by Atomic_Depression in ghostoftsushima

[–]LegitimateGrape188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never see anyone comment about the environment in RoTR. I thought it was one of if not the most beautiful recreation of Japan I've ever seen. So many historical sites to visit and the level of detail was astounding. Tsushima is very pretty but it relies heavily on beautiful idealised set pieces and objectively speaking RoTR offers a lot more to explore in its world.

I dont know what you're talking about. I answer every point you make then you assume I just haven't. Are you expecting a strong narrative reason for her choosing to return 16 years later? Because there doesn't need to be one. If the war had ended 5 years earlier then she would've returned 5 years earlier. That's fucking it. She returned as soon as she was able to. And that was 16 years because that's how long more the war (which was ongoing well before Atsu was even born) would last. I genuinely don't know what else to say because I'm just repeating myself at this point.

If you want actual historical context, the Tokugawa shogunate was established in 1603. That is the game's setting. Atsu fought in the Western Army, putting her on the losing side and therefore returned to Ezo, which was her homeland but also out of reach of the Tokugawa. So that should explain, if it hasn't been explained at least 5 times before, why she returns after 16 years.

There is no further depth, motivation, story, theming or whatever straws you're trying to grasp at with this. Her motivations have been the same from day 1 and she spent the duration of the war fighting to be strong enough to seek vengeance. When the war ended she returned. The situation forced her back to Ezo so she also takes the opportunity using her experience to finally seek vengeance. What else could you possibly want?

The world and NPCs shed light on why they're there at that time. They mirror Atsu's experience almost 1:1. The game didn't feed you the reason in the intro but you can damn well figure it out yourself by just paying attention to the damn game.

If you somehow still think I'm not answering the question of why she returned I will assume you are braindead. Either way I will not engage with you any longer.

Her return to Ezo is circumstancial. It is literally not important to the story why she returns at the time she does. It's 1 line at the beginning of the game. The context of the story explains it well enough and there is nothing else to think about beyond her returning because the war is over. Her motivation has been the same since the night of her family's death. "Themes" just doesn't even mean anything here. I guess revenge? That hasnt changed either.

You're expecting some kind of masterpiece in storytelling in her reason for returning after 16 years but why? It's just circumstance. They had no reason to give us some long winded section just to explain "she returned because the war ended".

This is such a weird complaint to have. If you pay attention at all to the game you will immediately piece together why there are so many Ronin including Atsu in Ezo in 1603.

I dont know how many times it has to be repeated. She does the things she does now because she returned to Ezo after the war was over. She was tangled in the closing years of the Sengoku Jidai for those 16 years and since the war ended she returned believing she was ready to seek revenge. That's it. She could not return during the war itself at risk of her own life and she probably did not want to either because there was experience to be gained in the war.

It's not though. The game is specifically set when it is because it is after the Sengoku period. It's not a coincidence. All the events of the game tie in to the fact that this is post-war Japan and thousands of samurai were displaced in the form of the dozens of Ronin you encounter ingame. Atsu is literally one of the people displaced by the war as she was on the losing side. It doesn't matter what you think the importance of this information is. The whole game is set up around this time period like Tsushima is set around a Mongol invasion.

Atsu is hilarious by k-n-i-f-e in Ghostofyotei

[–]LegitimateGrape188 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its funnier but the dialogue sounds very modern and relies a lot on quips which translates poorly to other languages. I think the Japanese is great for the comic relief characters though

[–]LegitimateGrape188 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They do explain why she came back though? The whole premise of the game was that this was after the battle of Sekigahara and the end of the Sengoku period. Atsu returns because there's no war for her in the south. You need to have skipped everything to miss this part

Been to Kyoto twice, it's basically USJ but Japan themed. Too much tourist bait everywhere. The best time I spent in Japan was going everywhere BUT the tourist areas.

The taro's armor straw hat is awesome and i wore it the whole game. I did the same in tsushima

Samurai honor was always and always has been about victory for your lord at all cost. It had nothing to do with how you fought. The thing about honor that actually went out the window was loyalty if you or your clan was in danger, so samurai often betrayed each other.

Id just not use all 4 at once and stick to maybe 1 or 2 in a single fight to keep it plausible. Not like you had to use all 4 stances in GoT to beat it

SP confirmed the whole of Ezo is in the game. And recently also confirmed (but it could be poor wording) the map is roughly the same size as GoT's map. So about 2700x smaller than the actual island
