Dynamic Dialogue (Ghost of Tsushima Facts) 

EXTRA NOTES 1) This video is related to a previous one. If you want to see more dialogue that changes depending on where you are in the story, you may press this link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9ZHsgHQJXxQ.html 2) I have received frequent redundant questions about the location of the last segment of the video, where Yarikawa swordsmen try to ambush Jin. It is located in Old Yarikawa, not far from where you learn the Dance of Wrath. 3) Many commenters mentioned the seeming error of Jin and The Eagle's first interaction, where Jin claims Khotun Khan is dead despite the player only being in Act 2. I do not find this to be an error at all. Jin is bluffing. He is trying to scare The Eagle into releasing him by telling lies. He also claims "a thousand samurai will come" but that is an obvious lie. Depending on when you start Iki, Jin either lies twice, or says one truth and one lie; but in any case, Jin's sentence will work whenever the player starts Iki. 4) Thank you to J M and King Shibe for commenting on the earlier video. I have included what they have written here. I would also like to thank @mugihoujicha on Twitter for finding the dynamic dialogue with the poet in Hiyoshi Springs. I would not have found nor recorded this without them.

“Skilled in the art of combat, and poetry” gives me “immune to all threats, physical or magical.” Vibes 😂

Fun Fact: Lord Shimura was a great man. Skilled in the art of combat, and poetry.

One thing we know about Lord Shimura- HE WAS SKILLED IN THE ART OF COMBAT *AND POETRY*

Skilled in the art of combat, and poetry

Also if anyone didn’t notice when you wear Sakai armor in that cave where you learn about the horse armor on Iki island everyone runs away and hides, so you have to switch armor to hear the story, I thought that was cool

Their is a extra dialogue when you doing the Yarikawa quest. When Jin says to let the mongols pass.You can charge at them and you will get extra dialogue.

Btw, when you completed the story and have started on the proud do not endure, Jin will tell yuriko that his clan is no more, he tries to tell as wel that lord shimura has died (if you have chosen the option to kill him) but yuriko interrupts him

Dang, I was hoping for a dialogue when you meet Lord Shimura while wearing the Mongol Commander Armour...

Glad to see I’m not the only one who will now hear “and poetry” in my sleep tonight

"tell me you put a lot of effort into the game you made without telling me you put a lot of effort into the game you made"

This feels like some youtube poop "Im sorry, he was a great leader... ... ... SKILLED IN THE ART OF COMBAT AND POETRY"

Didn't know these things exist. I wore that clan armor when meeting the uncle, it's the first armor I wanted to wear since saw it in Jin memories with his father.

The 2 most impactful things in role-playing games: (1) Attention to detail and (2) great writing that adjusts based on players' choices and how they experience the story. Love games like these.

I was hesitant of playing it because I wa tired of open world games. But boy oh boy I'm glad I gave it a chance with this new Plus thing. Game it's BEAUTIFUL, sword combat it's nice and the ghost things are great. Initially I thought that the plot was weak but then sht hits the fan and it turns damn great, also some side stories almost made me cry. Such a great game

I was kinda hoping the game would have honor system with how you approached enemy, like stealth decreases it while sticking with samurai code increases it, bc the game kinda imply you having a choice to be honorable or not throughout the game, but later i found out you became ghost anyway

SKILLED IN THE ART OF COMBAT AND POETRY has such a strong Oblivion vibe.

lord sakai i studied poetry with your uncle skilled in the art of combat and poetry

"Don't let him stab you in the back!" *insta kills him*

There is another one in the side quest empty baskets where if you kill the bandits that "stole" the rice he will say something about killing the bandits but if you run in and dont kill any jin will say "luckily i didnt have to" about not harming the bandits

Interesting... I'm working on a video of my own about how choice inpacts the narrative in Tsushima and it seems there's more than there appeared. Thanks for sharing! Is there any changes with Norio's questline? I always felt like the ending to his story where he rejoins the monks after his raid on the camp felt rushed so that Norio could show up in the final battle whether you completed his questline or not. It'd be interesting if there was an alternate ending if Jin didn't need him to help with the final attack on the mongols.

i wonder if lord shimura is skilled in the art of combat and poetry

favourite example of this is when you go to the pirates cove and 2 straw hats come to collect a debt- if you wear the straw hat ronin armor they get spooked and just leave

For all the foresight they put into adaptive dialogue, there is one glaring omission. During the cutscene when Jin first meets the Eagle, he tells her "The Khan is dead" regardless of whether or not you beat the main story. How could they miss that? ¬_¬

It's like Red Dead Redemption 2 all over again.

When I killed shimura on my second play through and did the grandmas quest had special dialogue she didn’t believe me when Sakai said he had passed

If you play Yuna's side missions in Otsuna, before playing the first Yarikawa main Mission, when Taka talks about going back home, Jin Replies him with what happened to Yuna & Taka in Otsuna. It's an amazing dialogue. Also Taka asks Yuna about Ichi.

i like that you could (in a a pretty brutal way) spare two of the men in that last part

skilled in the art of combat and poetry

I didnt think id like a game like this, but i absolutely loved it. 10/10

My favorite one of these is when you wear the tattoo armor at the archery events on Iki

Senseless death indeed.

4:30 The Ghost had literally taken over multiple Mongol Strongholds all by himself and committed Mongol Genocides accross the island, and bro thought 3 extra goons is enough to let him take The Ghost? Guy deserved everything bad happened to him.

amazing, I completed the game several times but I had no idea about it!!!

2:06 that hurt

2:19 This hurt me when I played the game

I'm also intrigued on random dialogs between NPCs, they're sub-less so people will easily forget them

Guys I think Lord Shimura was skilled in the art of combat, and poetry.😊

Great vid, my guy!

I felt bad to make a choice either to spare or kill shimura 😢, I did honour the wish so , but I still feel sad abt it

Best ghost of tsushima video 📹 👌🏻 👏🏻

Bro i just got spoiled by a youtube thumbnail

Man do I wish this was implemented into more games. I just wish the main game would have gotten more content…

If you go to iki island in act 2 Jin still says khotan khan is dead

5:20 this people are just angered and want someone to punish

in the last part, where and what area did you find the samurai from yarikawa?

Where do you find the samurai that say different dialogue depending if you kill or spare your uncle

Hey I know the comment is late but if you ride with lady Masiko after completing Iki island she said that lord shimura kills tenzo the one who kills Jin father but I wanted to see if that’s true

WANTING TO PLAY THIS SO BAD!

HE PASSED WTF 2:08

Rahsaan Freeway

I kinda missed Lord Shimura after completing Iki

thats so cool

I never met those guys trying to avenge their father, where are they?

Are they from clam Shimura? Because they are wearing the armour colour.

Where does 3:48 happen? I don’t remember encountering them

where do i find that last mission of the samurai who want to kill Jin

Great now i got spoilers What i get for not finishing a game before things like this Lmao

just like to put out there the uncle the reason your first horse dies😛

Lord shimura-

NOOOOOOOOO SPOLIERRRRRRRRRRRR AHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Played it all in japanese dialogue, english feels very off. With japanese dialogue its much more immersive and beautiful.

Where can I bandits from the last part of the video ?

3:47 where is that place, i've played the games 3 times but never there

Thanks

Bro this should’ve won game of the year 🙄

What was his Uncle skilled at?

and poetry

සටන් කලාවට, කවියට දක්ෂයි

That's cool and all. However, that's not helpful for gameplay as people are attacking you and you need to block Dodge and attack. Besides, just do a nice little sweet combo

I found broken stag in iki island

God It's so weird hearing them speak English

I suggest u play it with japanesse Dub its a whole different level of acting

The English voices are so lame compared to the Japanese ones. But it's a good informative video.

What is mean of Act?

3:53 locarion pls

This game sounds weird in English

We get it, his uncle was a good character SKILLED IN THE ART OF COMBAT AND POETRY

And poetry

Yea I really liked the changed dialogue for the straw hat duels. If you fight some or all of them before doing the mythic tale, Jin has different responses when hearing the tale

3:40 *😞I am sorry to hear that* *He was a great leader..* *🙂Skilled in the art of combat and poetry*

Technically not a dialogue change but a really cool interaction on Iki is if you wear the Sakai Clan armor when going into the survivor camp that tells the tale of Kazumasa Sakai, all the villagers will run away and you won’t be able to do the quest until you take off the armor

"Don't let him stab you in the back!" *Parried, gets slashed in the front*

Either choice is just tragic, man. Jin was such a good person, caught between a rock and a hard place.

Also if you do the quest with the old lady and the poison after finishing the main quest Jin will mention that he's no longer a samurai and that the clan Sakai doesn't exist anymore

5:20 How stupid does someone have to be to threaten the guy who killed Shimura?

I was always curious if there was a difference between the dialogue with Ishikawa and Masako depending on whether Jin kills Shimura or not.

didn't know he was skilled in the art of combat AND poetry

I feel like this took a long time to put together. Good shit 🤙🏾

For some reason I have a feeling that Shimura is skilled in the art of combat, and poetry

I am sorry to hear that. Anyways, skilled in the art of combat, and poetry.

In one of the quests when trying to save yarikawa, a mongol patrol will pass. Wait until Jin says “let them pass” then shoot at them. After you got their attention yuns will ask “I though you said to let them past!” Then Jin will reply “I changed my mind.”

Can you guys believe that Jin's uncle was skilled in the art of combat, and poetry?

These dynamic dialogues are what makes the game, play smooth. There's only 1 instance when they kind of forgot about it I think, which is when you travel with Kenji to the Viper's Den in Iki island, even if you chose the kill ending, Jin says, "Lord Shimura's been hunting the Viper for years", implying he's still hunting him, aka, he's still alive, instead he should've said something like, "Lord Shimura had been hunting the Viper for years". which would've made sense since it implies that the hunt was ongoing in the past, but it has stopped now (Coz Lord Shimura is dead now).

*skilled in the art of combat, and poetry.*

Wouldn’t Lord Shimura be executed by the Shogun if he failed to kill Jin?

its so weird to hear their english voices after platinuming it in Japanese good video either way

I’m so impressed with the amount of time and effort this would have taken to do! Thank you!

I can’t believe I never knew about these differences especially since this is one of my favorite games and have played through it almost 50 times

spoilers i guess but around the beginning of the dlc when Jin talks to the Eagle he says he already killed the Khan but i hadnt done that yet so that was annoying
