Ghost of Tsushima and Ghost of Yotei actor Feodor Chin believes that the time jump between the two games was the right choice for the series.

Although "Ghost of Tsushima" and its characters are well-loved by players, Sucker Punch made an unexpected decision in the sequel - completely abandoning the characters and plot of the previous game and setting the background hundreds of years in the future.Although Tsushima protagonist Jin Sakai is still mentioned in the game, "The Ghost of Mount Yotei" and the previous game are two completely independent stories.

Feodor Chin has played many characters in "Ghost of Tsushima" and played the main villain-Sama Saito in "Ghost of Mount Yotei".He said of this setting change in an interview with "Gamereactor": "I remember when they told me, I was really surprised." However, although unexpected, Qin believes that this is "really the right choice."

"With any beloved series, there are always going to be people who are disappointed," Qin explained, "but I think taking the series in a completely different direction like this is a very smart decision. It still exists in the same world of Tsushima, so players can still find the elements they know and love. At the same time, it also brings new content to new players, which I think is a very smart approach."

He added that even if some players want to see more stories about Jin Jingai, this approach at least avoids the situation where the sequel's plot will damage the character's image or cause controversy - especially after experiencing a work like "The Last of Us 2" that caused polarizing reactions.
