Today’s game is Ghost of Tsushima. I finally finished the main story for a second time. I think having gotten a chance to mature when I played this the second time has let me pick up on a lot of themes I didn’t before.

One such one I was going to note was the symbolism of Jin not having any honor, while Shimura is a “Slave” to honor.
On retrospect though I’ve been weighing this. Half in my head I’ve been wondering if the Khan is the one without Honor, and Jin is instead the “Middle Ground”. But also I don’t think that’s necessarily true, because he adopts a lot of their things that make them dishonorable, so he’s more so the idealized morally good version of that.

I also got these lovely sunset photos of the duel I wanted to share. The sunset and silhouette really bring out the picture to me.

In the epilogue I also noticed Jin has Shimura’s armor. It makes me wonder how he got it. I have to assume he stole it. Then again there’s all those Easter eggs of other Sony franchises so maybe it’s best not to question it.

Next time I play I’d like to get to the DLC, so I guess that’s kind of next on my list. I promised myself I’d finish this before anything else so I’d like to stick to that. Then go back and clean my backlog.

Oh, I do. What’s the point of having kids if you can’t embarrass them with outdated memes. 😀
