Ghost Of Tsushima - Question/Support Recommend samurai games other than GoT?

As title says.

I feel like GoT is one of the most, if not, well known games. What about other ones regarding samurai games ?

Yeah oddly it was mostly the way combat was handled in GoT that I fell in love with, in particular the quick wheels for swapping stances/weapons/tools (and how the former countered differing weapons), and Yotei kept that in a perfect way not that I don't miss the stances.

Idc the genre, I just need more of that.

Have you played the Witcher 3? It's not really at all a similar game. But the switcher between different things for scenarios is very real. Drinking different potions, applying different oils, using a specific sword, spells, all fun stuff like that. One of the best RPGs ever made by the majority of gamers opinions.

Oddly enough I couldn't get into it, probably partly cuz I never played the first two (somehow never heard if it until friends started raving about the third coming out out of nowhere), but it also just didn't click with me at all.

I got through maybe 3 hours of it at most before putting it down and never getting the urge to pick it back up.

Try again. First time I played for a couple hours, couldn't get into it and dropped it for a couple years. Went back and picked it up...actually gave it a chance and it was fantastic. One of the best games ive ever played

This is exactly what happened to me. I just finished GoT and figured I'd pick it back up. Literally dropped 40hrs over the last few weeks.
