#GHOST OF TSUSHIMA KILL OR SPARE CODE#

With that being said, both endings are morally ambiguous and allows the player to choose their purpose. From my understanding of Eastern philosophies, they don't differentiate between 'good versus evil' - there is only purpose, and whether or not you are moving towards purpose or away from it. For me, this was a game about chaos versus control and how they both balance each other out. When you said 'honor is something you fight with, not something you fight for' that hit the nail right on the head. I also spared him for very similar reasons as you. You put together a phenomenal write up, so I first want to thank you for such a thoughtful post. Hey man! Just beat the game and I'm so glad you posted this discussion. But I want them to eventually release stats or do a poll of what people chose at the end bc its interesting to see everyone's points of view and choices. This game is my favoritrle in years and I'm glad the first time you're given a choice they really hit u with a hard one. Either way I'm going to play it again and choose the other path as well as play in the b/w filter :`). The cutscene and game supports the idea that Jin isn't officially considered Shimuras son but between them they still share the bond and Shimura even says 'look for me in the other life'. (It gave you a different color palette for the ghost armor as did sparing him but I didn't take that into account.) I agree with Jin wouldve gone with sparing his Uncle but all the flashbacks got to me and I wanted to end both the Sakai and Shimira clans at that graveyard so Jin could be the son Shimura wanted to be - Jin could be better than a Samurai. I agree that there's the difference between being a slave to honor and being honorable as a warrior. I think his uncle would have killed himself or been too ashamed to lead still if I spared him but I havent seen the other cutscene or choice.

I wanted this to be redeeming part for jin to listen to his uncle for once and let him have the warriors death both of them would have gotten at the start of the game and to respect his uncles wishes and code at the end.

I chose to kill him because the whole end portion of the game youre portrayed by them as the traitor and that you fight without honor etc etc.
