I wish I could have seen what these looked like filled with people and the day to day life of someone here. I’m so fascinated with feudal Japan and its culture.

Not as clean. :)

But I admire Japanese civil engineering being so logical and planned out back then.

Sekiro has a whole area just like this if anyone wants to climb around in there!

Ghost of Tsushima includes many areas that replicate this scene as well, and is an open world set in feudal Japan.

Oh Tsushima is sooo good, too. I should replay it, never got around to the DLC
