Way of the Samurai (PS2) - Complete playthrough, Ending 1 [No commentary]

A PS2 cult classic, Way of the Samurai follows the tale of Kenji, a wandering samurai who finds himself caught in the midst of a power struggle taking place in a remote village. While often described as a short game, Way of the Samurai encourages repeat gameplay and experimentation. The story branches off in many smaller paths, culminating in one of six endings. Weapons and abilities also carry over between successive playthroughs. The video showcases a completed playthrough of the game, with the most desirable ending attained (Ending 1 of 6). Endings 2 through 6 range from favoring one faction over the other, fighting to the death or outright deception of both factions.
