cut Yasuke out of the game

[T-800]

I've cleaned the castle, but to get to the chest, I need to move thing. this is complete nonsense. remove him from the game.
in addition, he absurdly appears in cutscenes out of nowhere and disappears in the same way.

Nah I like Yasuke, keep him in

Go to the sync spot on top of the castle and you leave the hostile area by doing that. You can switch characters up there.

If you cut Yasuke from the game, who is gonna move that thing?

Then who was phone?

I ran into this in the last castle I cleared out. Reaching the chest was impossible without rappelling to the roof. It's just such an annoying level design decision, just confirms to me I should be using Naoe 75% of the time... Yasuke should be able to rappel too, even if he has to do it slower or something.

He really does feel like ' last minute addition' isn't he.

Yasuke can just walk through the front door and walk up. Please stop overreacting.

Sorry for the delayed response on this.

But in this case, as in several other cases since I've made this post, you do have to swap over to Naoe to get the chest, which is annoying in of itself because you have to leave the castle first to swap. I'm not talking about merely entering the castle either, I recognize the two have different approaches, and I appreciate that aspect. I mean that Yasuke literally cannot reach certain chests within a castle, including, quite often, the chest that opens after you assassinate or duel the taishos.

Incidentally I'm annoyed by the fact kamon cannot be reached by Naoe, which I now realize is probably what OP was actually talking about. IMO, if you're given the choice to be able to tackle the castles any way you want, that should include being able to use either character to 100% the castles.

Of course I am *not* in agreement with OP that Yasuke shouldn't be playable, I like that he is and I enjoy my time with him when I play as him for the most part, just as I enjoy Naoe for the most part gameplay-wise. I was just trying to not be combative with OP. I just wish that there was a little more consideration put into level design.

I totally agree with you.

No, you don't. 98% of the palace/fort legendary chests can be gotten by climbing the stairs. Just because you think you need to rappel up doesn't mean there isn't a staircase inside.

Hm, maybe I just "lucked out" and targeted castles with the handful that I needed to switch to Naoe for then? There have been a good few so far where there were no ladders or staircases, only the hatch on the top. Perhaps it is only those few.

To be fair, the items blocked by moveable crates actually belong to one of Yasuke´s quest´s.
But you are totaly right with the cutscenes, they just dont make sense considering you can do everything with just Naoe perfectly fine, she dont need Yasuke to go on this killing spree.
Yasuke got his own revenge quest´s after the main story quest´s and his cutscenes do not feature Naoe. In my opinion they should have 2 playthroughs, one with each character and the option to have them join help you in combat just like the other companions.
I am not saying its needed to have compqanions at all but it would make more sense than doing everything solo as Naoe just to see Yasuke become MVP in the cutscenes without even being remotely visible during the combat!
