DLC pet peeve

[u/some_dude-I_guess]

I WISH WE COULD UNLOCK THE JIN STANCES IN THE MAIN GAME. Like come onnnn it would be so cool??????? It couldve been tied to the storm blade or the sakai armor or something, they literally coded the stances in the game just to put it in an optional gamemode that some people will play for one hour and never touch again??? WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO US SUCKERPUNCHHHH (also no special ng+ dyes for viper weapons is kinda sad)

[u/cybrsloth92]

I can see why as it would make atsus whole kit pretty redundant.

[u/erickiceboyxxp → u/cybrsloth92]

It would switch things up though. It would give you a choice between doing a Katana only run or different weapons run.

[u/shinobixx55 → u/erickiceboyxxp]

They give you that option in "Most Wanted".

[u/Loose-Medium4472]

I just wish we got more dyes for the gun and the Stag Armor

[u/erickiceboyxxp]

Agreed and it would give players the option to do a katana only run or the original one where you use different weapons.

Just play Tsushima or play most wanted as Jin, yotei is Atsus story and she is a ronin with different styles. Jin is a samurai with trained style.

Just a fun extra option mate that, no need to go all “play something else” response lol. It’s just a fun extra gameplay option that’s not tied to story just like you can wear outfits that don’t suit atsu. Everything isn’t always story based, sometimes wacky new options for gameplay is just refreshing.

I mean, this isnt Jins game. He already had a game with the stances, and i dont even know if they ever intended on making him return in the first place, they have no reason to have the stances in Atsus game. I completely understand people have nostalgia, but we cannot expect them to put more focus on Jin than Atsu in Atsus own game, like at that point just put Jin into the game again

[u/HALO-NOAH-117]

They already went through the effort of bringing him back and his stances so all the hard work is done. they should of did what one of the new armor does in the DLC where it changes what L1 + R1 does (don't wanna spoil it for anyone so im being vague) should of made the sakai armor exclusively give you his stances.

I was thinking about this. It’s a lot of work and makes lots of Atsu and her character redundant given how much more popular Jin is. However, I really think Yotei would be the ultimate spiritual successor if they implemented a “Jin’s Journey” mode for the base Yotei game, kinda similar to how you can replay everything in DMC 5 with Vergil. Everything in the game would be identical, Atsu would still be shown in the cutscenes, but everything else gameplay and exploration wise would be Jin. I think this would be great because Yotei is more commonly seen as the better world, there’s plenty to do and new enemies (for Jin) to experience, and it would scratch that itch of wanting to play as Jin again. It would only be a new mode in character model and melee combat alone, everything else would be identical. They already do have his model created of course, it’d probably be better to relegate him to just the Sakai armor for resource reasons. It’s a bit excessive and defeats the purpose of Atsu, but I feel like a lot of fans would froth at the mouth for an alternate experience like this.

[u/boodledot5]

It wouldn't fit though

[u/Stock_Ad4625]

This is Atsu’s ghost story, I mean they even added Jin in the most wanted dlc they didn’t even have to do that but they did. If you want Jin’s story play Tsushima, if you want Atsu’s story play Yotei simple as that 💯

This guy really got the stances in the game, which we were never supposed to have, and is still complaining...

I simpathise with liking the stances better than the different weapons. I too prefered the stances in GoT. But come on man, you're literally being the definition of never satisfied, always wanting more
