Hard Working Son
I really enjoy this next chapter because there are some pretty interesting dynamics between two non player characters. A father, Karude, struggles to let his son, Kokari, grow up by giving him more responsibility. At the same time the son tries to grasp this new freedom. As a go-between for two of them, you hear both sides of the story and help both of them explore their evolving relationship. The dialog and the implications of their actions results in a true advancement for videogame story telling. The character’s emotions feel very multi-dimensional and I could really empathize with both of them. This part of the game is more real to me than any scene rendered by a tera-flopped, pixel-shaded, next-generation console.
Find Karude - he has a bear on his head and is looking around. Karude gave his son a big project to build a bridge to Kusa Village. He has not seen the boy in a while but does not want to check on him because he wants the son to learn from his own mistakes and evolve on his own. Okami could actually learn a lesson here and just let Susano realize on his own that his sword is not magic and that he can not hack training dummies, rocks or even bears with it.
