Once you start Ghost of Yotei, your major goal is to search out the Yotei Six, however the recreation would not present any course past that. The concept is for the participant to seek out their very own manner ahead by merely setting out into Ezo and seeing the place issues lead. It’s, nonetheless, very simple to turn out to be inundated with quests, and Ghost of Yotei‘s directionless tact could be overwhelming.
[Warning: Story & progression spoilers for Ghost of Yotei.]
In Ghost of Yotei‘s introductory sequence, Atsu crosses the primary title off her record, killing the Snake and starting the parable of the onryō. You’ll seemingly collect three main leads pretty shortly upon starting the first journey in Ezo: info on the Kitsune, the Oni, and the Saito brothers (the Dragon and the Spider). The sport is designed to don’t have any mistaken decisions, however one makes essentially the most sense to pursue first.
Contemplate Discovering The Kitsune First
North, To Teshio Ridge
I like to recommend beginning the remainder of Atsu’s hunt with the Kitsune as your first goal. The placement of Lord Saito’s spymaster can shortly be narrowed to Teshio Ridge, the northernmost area of Ghost of Yotei‘s map. From the beginning space within the Yotei Grasslands, you may head northeast into Tokachi Vary (which is contiguous with the grasslands), then take a ferry throughout the Nice Lake into Nayoro Wilds (a separate zone). Merely maintain going north till you attain Teshio Ridge, however learn on if you happen to do not thoughts some very minor spoilers about why the Kitsune is the perfect first goal.
Concentrating on the Kitsune first permits you to discover the Yotei Grasslands and Tokachi Vary, which mix into a large hub space all the opposite areas connect with. Equally, you may additionally must journey by Nayoro Wilds to succeed in Teshio Vary. Nayoro Wilds is a smaller, extra peaceable area of Ezo, and is house to an Ainu neighborhood. There are some nice aspect quests right here that inform Atsu’s character, however you may additionally get context for the Ainu objects you discover all through the sport.
Ensure you get the Twin Katanas from Hanbei within the Yotei Grasslands, and the Odachi from Grasp Yoshida in Tokachi Vary earlier than taking the ferry.
Most significantly, although, going after the Kitsune will convey you into contact with Oyuki, one in every of Ghost of Yotei‘s most vital characters. For story causes I will not get into, Oyuki has rather a lot to show Atsu, and assembly her will unlock the pay attention skill that Ghost of Tsushima gamers might be acquainted with. It will assist tremendously with stealth sections, as you’ll be able to maintain R3 to disclose close by enemies and animals.
Ghost Of Yotei Is A Wandering Samurai Story, So It Finally Doesn’t Matter
Comply with The Wind
Regardless of the looking the Kitsune first resulting in vital gameplay mechanics, and arguably making essentially the most sense in Ghost of Yotei‘s story, the seek for the Yotei Six is left open-ended on goal – it would not actually matter which leads you comply with first. Yotei is designed to be a wandering samurai story, so if you happen to’re not sure of the place to go, I like to recommend merely doing the quests you discover most attention-grabbing.
Even additional, I recommend opening the map as little as potential, and utilizing Atsu’s spyglass to navigate Ezo as a substitute. You may most likely discover that following sure leads solely will get you to date, and your choices might be narrowed anyway. If you would like some course, although, heading north might be your finest guess, and you will find loads of attention-grabbing stuff to do alongside the best way in Ghost of Yotei anyway.
