Interestingly, Nate Fox asked the audience at the end of the panel if they would be interested in playing the strategy game walkthrough|https://strategynewsbase.Com/ with Japanese dialogue, and the response was overwhelmingly positive. Fox followed up with "noted." Looks like my wish might actually come tr  
There is a team in Japan that helped a "huge deal" with the trailer and made sure that the representation was respectful of Japanese culture. Katami-san mentioned something that was removed but did not specify what it  
Join Media Molecule studio directors Siobhan Reddy, Mark Healey, and Alex Evans alongside a very special guest to take an in-depth look at the development of Dreams during their exclusive Saturday panel at 12:3Coaching can be wearying, with long hours of reviewing gameplay much like the film sessions NFL players will sit through but when it comes to Tournament matches the story switches as it can be exhilarating. The biggest gaming proceedings span packed inside arenas with millions of screaming fans watching their players every keyboard stroke ever mouse click of their favorite player. Coaches are naturally sporting their team’s jersey and giving advises to players between matches. eSports is more than just a fad as this year alone it has generated somewhere along the lines of $140 million in the U.S alone and $600 million in global revenue. That’s just from corporate sponsorships, advertising and ticket and merchandise sales, according to SuperData Research, a New York firm that tracks the video game industry.

Join us on Saturday at 3:30pm as Nate Fox (Creative Director), Jason Connell (Creative/Art Director), Billy Harper (Animation Director), Ryuhei Katami (Associate Producer, Sony Interactive Entertainment) and moderator Brian Altano (IGN) discuss how we approached making the debut trailer and what inspired us to make this game.

Also be sure to stop by our signing session after the panel and come say hi. Stay tuned for more info on time and locat  
Rift Herald’s Ryan Gilliam piece on the matter has exposed the rift between Riot’s practices and the awareness of their voice actors. The discovery was originally made on Twitter by a lawyer and fan using the handle @LimitlessCha  
The mon (family crest) in the logo of the game is actually fictional. It was selected among a few different options designed by Connell, while Katami-san made sure that it was the most authentic and believable for the time period, and matched the mountains of Tsushima. It's the family crest of "Jin Sakame". I don't believe this has been officially confirmed just yet, but this is probably the name of the protagon  
While the main character in Ghost of Tsushima is originally a samurai, the end of the announcement trailer shows clearly that he is going to take up the mantle of the ninja. Not only does the concept of "ghost" make it clear, but at the end we see him in ninja garb, using shinobi tools, and stealth to fight off the Mongol a  
The team went to Tsushima twice with two different groups of developers. The second time, it was during a festival commemorating the Mongol invasion, and that was an "amazing experience" according to Harper. They even visited a local high school to see historical Mongol artifaThe newest job in sports right now is a video game coach. That’s right; being a coach to gamers is a real job now and the coach does everything a football or hockey coach would do from sitting down and studying past game footage to making sure all his players get along. A video game coach, or eSports coach as they're being called, can make anywhere between $30,000 to $50,000 a year including a performance bonus and health insurance tacked on to it. eSports coaches are making about the same rate as a minor league baseball coach would make, but it would not be surprising if that was to be bumped up in the near future once the medium has taken off and grown even bigger than it already has.  
Japanese games don't normally sell millions of units, and this is indeed a fact, but assuming that it's simply because they're Japanese is a case of confusing correlation with causation. The reason behind the sales number is normally due to a combination of lack of marketing push and sub-AAA production val  
This already is a largely debatable position. Not only are there many, many western games by publishers that would lick their lips at the idea of selling two million units, but Japanese games as a whole are certainly a relevant factor to selling conso
